Chapter 528 Heavy Cavalry Iron Pagoda, Regretful Archer

Looking at Taishi Ci who was still able to help Ma Chao to rescue him, Cao Ren's eyes were stern and he intensified his attacks. Just now, he had once again forced Taishi Ci to use a pair of double halberds. At this point, Taishi Ci was left with only himself. A pair of halberds.

This opponent's halberd is a little different from the others. It is longer. This can be said to be Taishi Ci's last guarantee. It is destined not to launch long-range attacks and should be reserved for self-defense.

Just now Ma Chao was in danger, Taishi Ci had to throw out the two halberds in his hands to block the attacks of Cao Ren and Cao Xiu, and then defeated the first-rate general with one arrow.

Just after taking care of the first-rate generals, a heavy cavalryman fought through the heavy siege and came to the unconscious Ma Chao. He leaned over and lifted Ma Chao up and placed him on Li Feisha's back.

Similarly, another first-class general under Cao Cao came to support him. He was a first-class general who was promoted as an archer. He originally wanted to pick up heads, but after seeing the heavily armored heavy cavalry, he changed his mind. In his own opinion, after all, as an archer, he knows best how heavy armor can restrain them. At this distance, it is easy to block his bow and arrow.

So he immediately lost all thoughts, leaned down and placed Xiahou Dun on his horse.

The heavy armor was just staring at him. As long as he made any movement, the heavy armor would rush over immediately and fight with him.

And Li Feisha, who was connected with Ma Chao, was behind Chongqi, quietly waiting for Chongqi to clear the way for him to return to Nanjun County smoothly.

This heavy cavalry was none other than the commander of Ma Chao's special force, Tiefutu. In just one month, he had been promoted from a third-rate general to a second-rate general, and was only a stone's throw away from a first-rate general.

But this level is still not enough to support his ability to protect Li Feisha and send Ma Chao back to the city. He was able to kill him just now because he happened to be nearby, and a heavy horse like Tiefu Tu had to wait until the two sides ended the collision and started fighting. , the combat power will be greatly improved.

He is now waiting for the Iron Buddha to gather. Only when all five hundred Iron Buddha are gathered here can they have a chance to break out of the siege and send Ma Chao back.

The number of Cao's troops was almost more than 100,000 more than that of Gu Rubing's command. In addition, Ma Chao was now deep in the hinterland of Cao's army, so Xiahou Dun's retreat was basically no surprise.

The first-class archer general was not idle after rescuing Xiahou Dun. He began to gather Cao's troops from all around and came to surround and kill Ma Chao in order to keep Ma Chao here.

Soon, the five hundred iron pagodas were assembled. The general was at the front, holding an iron gun and breathing heavily.

"One hundred people protect the general, and the three hundred people in the middle are responsible for protecting the front, left, and right sides. Leave the rear to me!"

Others looked at him after hearing this. At this time, choosing to cut off the back is definitely the most dangerous and the pressure is the greatest, but there is no fear in his eyes under the layers of thick armor, only burning. of fighting spirit.

At the call of the first-rate general, Cao Jun's army was surrounded by more than a dozen teams, totaling more than 3,000 people. They wanted to kill all the 500 iron pagodas here, and even more wanted to keep Ma Chao here. Here it is.

A vigorous small battlefield in the midst of a great battle began in an instant.

More than 3,000 people began to surround and kill the small iron pagoda.

Taishi Ci and Zhang He wanted to help so that Ma Chao could be sent back to the county smoothly. The reason why the battlefield in the northeast is now more than 100,000 people apart, and there is such a huge gap in the combat power of famous generals and first-class generals. The reason why Cao Jun was able to be firmly suppressed was due to Ma Chao's contribution.

Ma Chao first relied on his extraordinary experience to guess that the opponent's focus was in the northeast. With only a guess, he resolutely came to the battlefield in the northeast, leaving Pang De, who was still a first-rate general, in the frontal battlefield. Against the gun king of the West.

It can be said that the arrival of Ma Chao helped Zhang He and Tai Shi Ci share the huge pressure, and it was also an important factor in creating the current situation. Ma Chao then fought one against two and seriously injured both Xiahou Dun and Xia Houyuan one after another, although he himself also fainted. In the past, it made two famous generals lose their fighting ability. In the final analysis, it was still a profit.

But the premise is that Ma Chao can return to the county safely, otherwise it will be in vain.

"Junyi, cover me, I'll escort Zilong!"

Taishi Ci roared loudly, thrust his two halberds at the same time, forced Cao Ren back again, and then rushed towards the direction of Tiefu Tu without looking back.

How could Cao Ren sit idly by and help Zhao Yun? Then he immediately rushed forward again to intercept Tai Shici and not give him a chance to support him.

Just when he was about to catch up with Tai Shici, a spear fell from the sky, and then a horse leaped high, passed over Cao Ren's head, and came to the front of Cao Ren.

"Go through my level first."

Zhang He stood up with his spear drawn, blocking Tai Shici's retreat route.

Xu Chu and Cao Ren, who came after him, looked at each other and made a tacit agreement to attack Zhang He first. Now Ma Chao has lost his fighting power. Even if he cannot be captured now, when the war is over, Ma Chao will still have nothing to hide. If one more person can be made to lose his fighting power now, victory will only be a matter of time.

Although Cao Ren and Xu Chu were stopped, Taishi Ci was still hindered on his way to support.

Cao Xiu, Cao Zhen, Le Jin, and Yu Jin arrived here early, waiting for Tai Shi Ci. On the other side, one of the three generals brought by Zang Ba had been killed, and the remaining two were fighting with Xia Houshang. , Zang Ba was also fighting with Li Dian and could not spare any support.

Among the four quasi-famous generals, Taishi Ci put away his halberds, picked up his big bow, and wanted to break through quickly. You definitely can't do it with a pair of halberds, you can only use a bow and arrow.

Just when Taishi Ci was about to take action, two more people gathered around him. Taishi Ci looked intently and realized that they were also old acquaintances.

Xu Huang and Gao Lan were both at the level of quasi-famous generals. Taishi Ci's face was extremely solemn. Six quasi-famous generals were enough for him to drink a pot. Not to mention six quasi-famous generals, just six first-class military generals were enough. .

Cao Cao recruited talented people, and sitting in Xudu, he had the right time and people, and recruited a large number of generals. Now those generals have basically grown up and finally showed their fangs. "Brother Zilong, I can't take care of you anymore."

A wry smile appeared on Taishi Ci's lips. In the next moment, he suddenly shot three arrows and then ran in the opposite direction.

Zhang He also felt uncomfortable facing the siege of Cao Ren and Xu Chu at the same time. In fact, the main reason why Ma Chao was able to seriously injure the Xiahou brothers was that Xiahou Yuan was careless and did not take Ma Chao seriously, which gave Ma Chao the opportunity to act and then seriously injure him. , and then Xiahou Dun was blinded by anger. In addition, the first-class general did not help, and Ma Chao finally punched with both palms.

But Zhang He is not so lucky. Xu Chu's characteristics have been superimposed to the highest level. He is still confident that he can fight against Zhang He, but it will not work if he adds Cao Ren.

Although the two men's attacks were equally ruthless, they did not give up defense. They attacked and defended, and did not give Zhang He any chance.

At this time, Tiefutu had already begun to charge the siege. The leader of Tiefutu was standing at the very back. Standing there alone, he actually had the momentum of thousands of troops. This was the sense of oppression brought by the heavy cavalry.

Although he was only at the level of a top second-rate military general, standing there, his momentum was no weaker than that of those first-rate military generals who wanted to capture Ma Chao in exchange for the second-rate king. He even had a stronger momentum.

"Although there are thousands of people, I will go."

The Lord of Tiefutu murmured softly, and then began the attack without hesitation.

"kill!"

The Baiqi Tiefutu behind him showed no fear on his face, and also followed his figure and began to charge.

If the cavalry's charge looks like a surging wave in terms of visual effects, with a wave advancing rapidly, then the heavy cavalry's charge is like a towering mountain rushing towards you from a distance. The momentum is breathtaking. Intimidating.

Even though there were only a hundred riders, the rumble of the war horses stepping on the ground was simply more impressive than the rolling thunder.

The pursuers at the rear were the largest, and under the summons of the first-class general and archer, two more first-class generals came over.

Of course, Tiefutu is not the only one in the army who is participating in rescuing Ma Chao. Other soldiers nearby are also helping. Among them, the Taishan Tiger Bandits account for the majority, because they are entering the battlefield from the south, and Ma Chao, Zhang He's battlefield happened to be in the south, and they were the closest.

Of course, the main force is still the Iron Buddha. Although the heavy cavalry are all brave and brave men who can match ten on the battlefield, they are also the most eye-catching unit.

To raise a cavalry and let him go to the battlefield fully armed, the required gold and silver treasures can at least raise a dozen infantry, archers, or shield soldiers. Some elite cavalry units can even raise a few Ten soldiers from other branches.

To train a heavy cavalry of the same type, it would take more money and managers to train ten cavalry, just to get one heavy cavalry with full armor and soldiers.

It can be seen from this that it is really unimaginable how much effort it takes to train a heavy cavalry.

Back in Jiaozhi County, Huang Zhong and Wei Yan fought against Shi Xie and his heavy armored soldiers. Those heavy armored soldiers spent countless amounts of money on Shi Xie to get their equipment together. You know, since they came here, Shi Xie Xie was doing his best in business, mining jade, and making a lot of money. Even so, he only built 30,000 heavy armored soldiers and stopped because the consumption was too huge, and even he could not continue. Some can't stand it.

Therefore, after the Tiefu Tu appeared, it immediately caused a group of Cao troops nearby to attack.

They unanimously chose to besiege Tiefutu, not only to keep Ma Chao, but also to keep Tiefutu, the heavy cavalry that appeared in the battle between the two sides for the first time, here.

The leader of Tiefutu held an iron gun and took the lead in the battle line, clearing the way for his teammates behind him. After killing more than a dozen people, including two second-rate generals, he felt the breath of death for the first time.

Because an arrow passed through the layers of people and came to him. The arrow carried huge force and penetrated directly through his armor. The remaining force of the arrow did not stop until it penetrated into his muscles. .

Although it didn't cause much damage, it gave the first-class military commander and archer a signal that these heavy cavalry could never stop his attack relying only on the defensive power of their armor, and it didn't look like the opponent was a first-class one. Military general, because it took him some time to kill the two captains.

If he was a first-rate general, he should have eliminated the opponent within a dozen breaths at least, instead of wasting so much time just to kill two captains.

Therefore, this first-class general archer now hates and regrets. After all, he was only one step away from catching Ma Chao, but at the critical moment, he was shocked by the man wrapped in heavy armor, so he did not make a move, which led to the current scene.

Otherwise, he would have taken the military merit representing the second-word king early, so why would he need to alarm more than 3,000 people to encircle and suppress the Iron Pagoda, and the number of people is still growing.

The most important thing is that in addition to him, there are two first-class generals, one is the deputy general of the general of the cavalry, and the other is the chief general of the sword and shield camp. Needless to say, these two people are also here for Ma Chao, so he has two powerful opponents.

And what makes him feel most difficult is that there are big figures behind these two people. Needless to say, the general of the cavalry, Xu Chu, is a big red man beside the lord. This first-class general is a soldier who has followed Xu Chu since the beginning. He has experienced several life-and-death dangers with Xu Chu, so the relationship between the two sides is naturally needless to say.

Although the sword and shield soldiers' backers are not that big, they are still popular in front of the lord. They can have a seat at the ceremony, although they are in the last row and their ranking is not particularly popular. But the backer above that popular person is Cao Ren, who is that?

He is their lord's younger brother, who calls the lord "big brother". He is a direct descendant, a direct descendant that cannot be more direct.

Look at myself, although I am the commander of a battalion in the archery battalion, and the scale of the archery battalion is much larger than that of the sword and shield battalion, but I have no backer. My immediate superior is Xiahou Yuan, who is also a worker in front of the lord and a brother of the lord's mother's clan, but I have never said a few words to him. Usually, the archery battalion is managed by him, and Xiahou Yuan never intervenes.

Thinking of this, the first-class general of the Archery Camp took a deep breath, and the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed. He was only one step away from a smooth road in life, but after taking one step, he was frightened by an ant and lost his good fortune.

If he competed with the two of them now, the possibility of taking it was very small, and it was basically impossible for him to get it. Therefore, he now set his target on the Iron Buddha commander and wanted to kill him to vent his hatred!
