Ma Yue rolled sideways to avoid the fatal step, but he did not have time to get up before he heard a sharp whistle behind his head, Ma Yue's liver and guts split, his arms struggled to support the ground the whole person like a big lizard generally stick to the ground and slid forward a few meters, in the process of sliding forward, he felt a cold crotch, looked back, only to see that the Western Liang cavalryman's saber cut his crotch, just a little short of his two eggs will have to be forever His two balls would be separated forever.

However, Ma Yue's good fortune only ends here, just now that struggle to slide forward has exhausted all his energy, and now his hands and legs are heavier than filled with lead, and it is difficult to move a bit.

The Xilian cavalry seems to see Ma Yue's dilemma, not slow to lean on his horse, the hands of the horse chopper raised high again ......

It is really not willing to ah.

"Big brother, I came to save you."

A childish voice came, Ma Yue turned around to see, but only 16-year-old Chen Dang brandishing the two ends of the sharpened wooden spear bravely rushed back, not measured to save Ma Yue, this kid did not escape on their own, a young age, but quite righteous.

"No, Chen dare to run!"

Ma Yue was taken aback, he promised Chen Xue to take care of Chen Dang's brothers, he must not let him die in battle on the sand at the age of only 16.

A bestial glint swept through the eyes of the Xilian cavalrymen, abandoning the dying Ma Yue and turning his horse to meet Chen Dang.

"Kill!"

Chen Dang hissed in a childish voice, holding a wooden spear and stabbing at the chest of the Xilian cavalryman, but the Xilian cavalryman ignored the stab, and raised his horse-slashing sword high again.

But the Xilian cavalryman this knife did not chop down after all, Chen dare's wooden gun but viciously into his chest cavity.

"Ho ho ......"

The Xilian cavalryman made a horrible sound from the depths of his throat, and then fell headlong from his horse, the masterless war horse whinnied sadly, circled around the dead cavalryman, and could not bear to leave alone.

Chen dared to loosen his grip on the wooden gun like an electric shock, and when he saw that the Xilian cavalryman had fallen to the ground and was convulsing, he finally fell to the ground with a scream and vomited with all his might.

Ma Yue was in a trance, the feeling of life after the robbery turned out to be like this, everything is too unreal.

Chen Dang had such a reaction, Ma Yue was not surprised, he was even worse than Chen Dang after his first kill, but the Xilian cavalryman was not killed by Chen Dang, before Chen Dang's wooden spear pierced his chest, a feather arrow had already shot through his throat.

The shouting of mountains and seas came from the rear, Ma Yue looked back leisurely, only to see countless yellow turban bandits swept in like locusts, as far as the eye could see, the mountains and fields were filled with yellow turban bandits! The raging yellow turban bandits in front of the formation, a ride like flying, a black-faced man on horseback bent his bow and arrow, abetted another arrow, another Xiliang cavalryman should fall off the horse.

This guy is so handsome archery skills! Ma Yue's face changed.

"Thank you for saving my life, can you tell me your name?"

"A certain Guan Hai is also!"

The big black-faced man steered his horse like flying, hid his bow and arrows, pulled out a long machete from his saddle, and crossed over Ma Yue's side like a wind swept cloud, his big iron hoof was only a few minutes away from his face, and the broken snow splashed his face.

The face of Dong Zhuo, who was in charge of the rear, changed and became very ugly. The sudden appearance of a large number of yellow turban bandits at this time was really a problem for him. His 1,000 Xiliang iron cavalry had overwhelmed the original thousands of yellow turban bandits, and the situation had turned into a one-sided massacre. Dong Zhuo believed that with another half hour, he would be able to completely slaughter this group of yellow turban bandits.

But at this time, a large number of reinforcements of the Yellow Turban Bandits arrived, and by this time his Xilian Iron Riders had already become a mess with the fleeing Yellow Turban Bandits, and the whole battlefield had become a mess. What's worse, the Yellow Turban reinforcements that arrived actually had cavalry, and this group of Yellow Turban cavalry had bypassed the chaotic battlefield and were coming around from both sides, heading straight for Dong Zhuo in the rear.

Xu Rong, the general, spurred his horse to Dong Zhuo's front and said anxiously, "Lord, the bandits are overwhelming, order the troops to retreat, or none of our brothers will return to Liangzhou alive."

"Hateful!"

Dong Zhuo waved his whip with hatred, the cooked duck flew away again, how could he not hate it? But Xu Rong was right, if he didn't retreat, when the Yellow Turban bandits arrived, his 1,000 Xiliang iron horsemen would be buried here. The battle defeated can still win back, if the soldiers lost, then he is really finished.

"Collect the troops!"

Dong Zhuo bellowed, the commanders hurried to sound gold, has killed the red eyes of the Xiliang iron cavalry heard the sound of gold actually immediately stopped chasing, no longer and the yellow turban bandits more entanglement, began to slowly retreat.

Seeing the official soldiers advance and retreat in a disciplined manner, Ma Yue could not help but shake his head and sigh, looking back at the Yellow Turban bandits, the routed defeated soldiers not only blocked the way of the reinforcements to pursue, and even rushed the formation of the reinforcements, causing a lot of commotion, if not Dong Zhuo scare the Yellow Turban bandits too many troops dare not act rashly, or Dong Zhuo hands of the Xiliang iron cavalry and a thousand more, the consequences will be unimaginable.

But this battle, the yellow turban bandits after all is considered to have won.

The yellow turban bandits chased after a while symbolically and then withdrew their troops from the chase, each taking stock of the damage.

Liu Pei gathered the remnants of the soldiers, counting the seriously wounded, found that there are only 1500 people, this battle has lost most of the men and horses, the heart of the original point of pride and ambition has long since disappeared.

Liu Pei arranged for his soldiers to go back to the camp to rest and help the dead and wounded, while hanging his head to Zhao Hong to thank him.

Zhao Hong is the leader of the Yellow Turban Army who came to the rescue, he and Liu Pei are the disciples of the so-called great sage Zhang Jiao Lao Dao, after the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Uprising each led a "party" of people to respond to the flag. Before Liu Pei even won several battles, the army has grown to 5,000 people, but today a battle down immediately back to the original, only 1500 people left.

Zhao Hong had 50,000 men under his command, and in the whole Nanyang area, apart from the great viceroy Zhang Mancheng, it was Zhao Hong who had the greatest power. At that time, Nanyang was the southern center of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and the main rebel forces were Zhang Mancheng, Zhao Hong, Han Zhong, Sun Xia, Gong Du, and Liu Pei, which added up to 300,000 people.

But these yellow turban bandits are really unbeatable, in history, the last famous general of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhu Jun, after leveling the yellow turban in Yingchuan only brought a few thousand official troops south, with the assistance of landlords and powerful people to extinguish this group of powerful rebel forces.

......

Liu Pei army camp, morale is low, mourning Hong.

The lightly wounded soldiers were huddled together in twos and threes, with dull eyes and dull expressions, while the seriously wounded soldiers were abandoned in the corners of the barracks, with no choice but to wait for death, which in fact was impossible to save them with the medical level at that time. More soldiers had indifferent expressions and turned a blind eye to all this. In a chaotic world, human life is like grass, no one knows whether they can see the sun tomorrow, so how can they care about others?

Ma Yue shoved half a steamed bun to Chen Dang and said blandly, "Eat."

Chen Dang swallowed his saliva, but shook his head.

The yellow turban bandits' food is linked to the war, winning battles are delicious and sometimes there is money to take, but if you lose a battle, your treatment will be in the toilet.

The yellow turban bandits also have a lot of Han officers, so imitate the Han army into the army into several levels.

The worst is the miscellaneous soldiers, their weapons are wood or bamboo sharpened knives, swords, guns, combat power is very low, like Chen dare is, when the war these miscellaneous soldiers are often rushed to the forefront, is used as cannon fodder to consume the enemy's sharpness, so, Ma Yue can survive and become a sword and shield is not easy.

The better is the sword and shield hand, the miscellaneous soldiers in killing more than ten soldiers automatically turned into sword and shield hand, sword and shield hand's weapon is usually a simple sword and wooden shield.

A little better is the lance soldier, lance soldier's body cloaked in light armor, although not necessarily able to block arrows, but that is a symbol of status, so each sword and shield soldier are sharpening their heads to become a lance soldier.

The sword and shield and lance soldier are the backbone of the yellow turban bandits, and after the cannon fodder is almost consumed, it's their turn to take the field.

The more powerful yellow turban bandits also have archers, archers are considered the safest type of yellow turban bandits, as long as they do not encounter the Xilian cavalry like today, they can basically survive.

Finally, there are the elite soldiers.

Each yellow turban bandit leader will be selected from the army strength, body strong soldiers to form the elite soldiers, these elite soldiers are heavily armored, well-equipped, some also equipped with war horses, generally take on the role of the leader's guard army. These elite soldiers will not easily go to battle, only under certain circumstances will participate in the war.

For example, today's battle, Liu Pei fell for the official army's trick, mistakenly thinking that the elite Xilian iron cavalry is just some miscellaneous troops, he put his elite soldiers in front of the line, resulting in heavy casualties. On the contrary, the miscellaneous soldiers, who are usually placed at the front as cannon fodder, actually suffered the least casualties this time.

In fact, the ancient chaotic world is far more cruel than imagined, and not as simple as described in novels. Even if Ma Yue has the wisdom of two thousand years and can foresee the future, it is still difficult to get ahead in this era of strict hierarchy and barbaric bloodshed.

In Ma Yue's own words, it's not easy for him to survive until now.

Chen dared to grin and stuffed half a steamed bun into his mouth, in fact, he was already starving! Ma Yue closed his eyelids, in fact, he was also hungry, very hungry, but he promised Chen Xue that he would take good care of his two sons.

"Ba!"

A whip sounded, followed by a muffled grunt of pain from Chen Dang.

Ma Yue opened his eyes haughtily, only to see that Chen Dang had fallen to the ground with his face covered, and the half piece of steamed bun also rolled to the ground, and a big foot stepped down mercilessly, trampling it deeply into the sludge.

Ma Yue backhandedly grabbed the steel sword and rose up, the beast-like fierce light had flashed out from his eyes. More than a month of cruel experience let him deeply understand a truth, in order to live in the chaotic world, you must be ruthless enough to be more ruthless than others, sheep - is destined to be eaten by wolves.
