Chapter 673 Cao Ren Intercepts and Kills

General Cao, who was leading the army, saw two Jiangdong soldiers riding towards him. He immediately ordered dozens of riders on the left and right: "Surround them on the left and right, and don't get away from these two!"

"promise!"

The dozens of cavalry troops gathered together suddenly dispersed, from the sharp cone formation to the flying geese formation, as if they had woven into a large net for a while, and surrounded the two Jiangdong troops.

"Damn it!"

The commander of Jiangdong Army gritted his teeth, while the sentry rider next to him had a look of death on his face.

"Sir, what should I do?"

"You can't run anymore, just fight to the death. Kill one to save money, kill two to gain." Shi Chang has rich combat experience and knows that once surrounded by cavalry that far outnumbers one's own, it is basically impossible to escape without external rescue. .

He clenched the horse in his hand, stared fiercely at the Cao cavalry in front of him, and killed them fiercely.

Cao Jun's cavalry on the opposite side obviously lacked experience in facing the enemy. Seeing Shi Chang's ferocious look, he couldn't help but become frustrated. When he realized what he was doing, he was already running towards him with great force. Cao Jun's new soldiers hurriedly raised their horses to resist. .

However, in a hurry, before he could stretch out the horse spear in his hand, the commander of the Jiangdong Army roared angrily, and drew the horse spear 180 degrees. The sharp blade of the horse spear cut through his armor, cutting a slit in his lower abdomen. There was a large gash one foot long and two inches deep, and blood immediately gurgled out.

"Well"

A large mouthful of blood gushed out from the mouth of Cao Jun's cavalry. He hurriedly stretched out his hand to block the wound, but how could five fingers block the gushing blood?

After relying on inertia to gallop forward for a while, he fell directly from the horse, his body twitching slightly, and his body was filled with traces of blood.

Seeing Shi Chang kill one of Cao's cavalry with one blow, Jiangdong's sentry cavalry was in high spirits, secretly encouraged himself, tightened his grip on the horse's pole, and shouted loudly.

A cavalry battle is so cruel, much more cruel than an infantry battle. When two cavalry meet, the winner is usually determined by one move, so one of them will fall off the horse immediately. However, when infantry fights, the entanglement lasts much longer. Often the two sides can go back and forth for a few minutes, but they may not be able to win. Victory and defeat are determined in a split second, while cavalry determines victory and defeat in an instant, and determines life and death.

This Jiangdong Army sentry cavalry was facing an experienced Cao Army cavalry. He had a calm demeanor, wore armor with overlapping armor leaves, and held a horse pole in his hand. The wooden pole was smooth, and he was obviously skilled in using it.

"kill!"

The two cavalrymen each tried their best to drive their horses. Not only the cavalrymen on the horses looked fierce, but also the two warhorses under their crotches were gnashing their teeth. Their four hooves were working hard to dig up the ground, and they slammed into it hard.

The Jiang Dongjun roared angrily and stabbed out the horse spear in his hand. However, Cao Bing, who was opposite him, had quick eyesight and quick hands. He tilted his body slightly and raised his arm. There was a leather gauntlet on it. The pole and horse were separated to the side. Jiang Dongbing's move obviously failed.

broken!

He was startled and looked forward, meeting the cold eyes of Cao's cavalry.

Poof!

The sharp horse knife easily penetrated Jiang Dongbing's lower abdomen, entering through the front chest and exiting through the back chest. The sharp blade of the horse blade was stained red with blood, and Jiang Dongbing felt the strength in his body drain away rapidly.

Sa! The two horses passed by each other, and Cao Jun's cavalry skillfully pulled out the horse's trunk. Jiang Dongbing's body was shaken and he fell to the ground. In an instant, he was stepped on by the oncoming war horse. With a creaking sound, Jiang Dongbing's bones were broken. Being smashed into pieces by the huge horse's hooves, the half-dead Jiang Dongbing fainted directly.

"Boy Zhang!"

The commander of Jiangdong Army cried out sadly, with anger on his face. With his rich experience, he killed another Cao Army cavalryman with his horse.

"Good boy, you have some skills."

General Cao, who was wearing iron armor and had a calm demeanor, his eyes lit up and he praised him. He held a thick-backed sword and rode forward on his horse.

"The enemy will die!"

The Jiangdong military sentry cavalry was red-eyed. When he saw a Cao general on the other side, he wanted to kill him to avenge his comrades, so he urged his horses and galloped forward.

General Cao sneered, and urged his horse forward without fear, slashing his head with the thick-backed sword, as if he had the momentum of Pangu to create the world.

The commander of the Jiangdong Army ignored him and just stabbed out the horse spear in his hand. The horse spear, which was eight feet long, was stabbed out from a distance of ten feet. However, General Cao was not afraid. He only saw the horse spear stabbing into his armor. , wiped off a few armor leaves, but failed to pierce the iron armor.

General Cao sneered, dropped his thick-backed sword on his head, tilted slightly, and struck on the shoulder of the commander of the Jiangdong Army.

"Get down!"

General Cao knocked him off his horse with a sword, and then shouted to his left and right: "Tie up this Jiangdong soldier, and I will interrogate him personally later."

"promise!"

Several Cao Jun cavalry jumped off their horses, picked up ropes and tied up the injured Jiangdong Army commander. Then Cao Jun's cavalry sent out people to hold the three horses left by Jiangdong soldiers and dragged away the two corpses.

"Walk!"

General Cao led dozens of cavalry towards the village ahead. A dozen Cao soldiers dressed as farmers in the village saw General Cao and fell to the ground in surprise.

"I've met Cao Lifeng."

It turned out that this cavalry general in Cao's army was none other than Cao Ren, the general of Cao Cao's clan. He was appointed by Cao Cao as Captain Li Feng, so he was called Cao Li Feng in the army.

Cao Ren was a knight-errant when he was young, and he was quite famous. He often led more than a hundred people across the Huaihe River and Si River, and was feared by all the locals. Later, Cao Cao raised troops to attack Dong Zhuo in Chenliu. Cao Ren immediately gathered his rangers and got hundreds of people to defect to Cao Cao. Most of the rangers had horses, so they formed a cavalry, and Cao Ren was the commander of the cavalry. He led this cavalry to follow Cao Cao in defeating the Yellow Turbans and attacking Tao Qian, which was quite meritorious.

Cao Ren said coldly: "The military strategy laid out by the Prime Minister was almost destroyed by you and others. It delayed the military plan and should be executed according to the law!"

More than a dozen Cao soldiers were startled and fell to their knees one after another, begging loudly: "Cao Lifeng spare his life, we did not do this intentionally."

Cao Ren's expression remained unchanged and he said coldly: "Zhou Xing."

The old Cao soldier just stood up and said in a trembling voice: "What is Cao Lifeng's order? For the sake of the villain who has been fighting for the prime minister for many years, please allow the villain to make meritorious deeds."

Cao Ren glanced at him and said: "Killing you will scare the hearts of everyone. However, military discipline is strict and must be punished. You can cut off one of your fingers and let this matter be over."

After saying that, Cao Ren took off the ring-headed sword from his waist and handed it to him.

Zhou Xing gritted his teeth and said, "Thank you very much to Cao Lifeng for giving me the sword and for making an exception. I'm very grateful."

He picked up the Huanshou knife, pointed it at the little finger of his left hand, and slashed hard.

"Well!"

When he picked up the knife and dropped it, the little finger of his left hand fell to the ground, bleeding.

"Hurry up and bandage it." Cao Ren ordered, and the people next to him hurriedly stepped forward to bandage it.
