Chapter 171 Le Jin rescues Cao Hong
"General Cao Hong, they are going to set off rockets!"
"We." There was a hint of panic in the deputy general's tone.
There is no one who is not afraid of death. It just depends on whether you can restrain your fear of death.
At this time, Cao Hong and the others were already trapped in a tight siege, with Zhang He's troops on all sides.
It was daybreak, and Zhang He no longer had to worry about hurting his troops by firing arrows.
Now, there is no need to attack by force. It only takes a few rounds of arrows to kill Cao Hong and the others.
Cao Hong also understood that he could not delay it any longer.
However, he had a clear conscience and had tried his best.
"For the sake of my lord's hegemony, I, Cao Hong, will die without regrets."
"Brothers, you have been fighting with me for many years. Today, of the three thousand Leopard Cavalry, only a few hundred of you are left!"
"Don't sacrifice yourself for no reason. Surrender!" After saying these words, Cao Hong said "sternly" and was about to draw his sword and kill himself on the spot.
Cao Hong has tried his best, but now he can no longer hold on. If he continues to persist, the sacrifices of his brothers will be in vain.
He, Cao Hong, now wants to be worthy of Cao Cao, and he must also be worthy of his brothers.
Cao Hong is Cao Cao's brother and would rather die than surrender.
Cao Hong knew that if he were still alive, these brothers would not surrender no matter what.
Cao Hong drew his sword and was about to kill himself. The general's quick eyesight and quick hands stopped Cao Hong.
"General, what are you doing!"
"You must never do such a stupid thing!" The deputy general stopped Cao Hong and begged.
Cao Hong was stopped by the deputy general, and he tried to persuade him: "I am the prime minister's brother, and I would rather die than surrender."
"Today, I will die in exchange for a way of life for you."
Hearing Cao Hong's words, the deputy general pulled out his sword with a clang and shouted: "General, if you want to kill yourself on the spot, my brothers and I will have no choice but to let you go."
"Zhen Leng!"
"Zhen Leng!"
"Zhang Leng! Zang Leng!"
For a moment, the soldiers beside Cao Hong all had their swords hanging on their necks.
That means that if you, Cao Hong, commit suicide, then we will all commit suicide with you.
This scene amused Zhang He outside.
Zhang He thought to himself, are you all going to commit suicide?
You all commit suicide. This is a great feeling! It saves me the trouble of shooting arrows.
These brothers of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry have been following Cao Hong for many years, and they have deep feelings for each other.
Cao Hong wanted to kill himself, and they were all willing to follow Cao Hong and kill himself.
Do you want to say that these brothers in the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are really not afraid of death?
In fact, I am also afraid!
Although they were afraid, they were willing to die with Cao Hong.
If there is such a relationship between soldiers and generals, how can their fighting power not be overbearing?
Cao Hong thought to himself, if I want to die, will you die with me?
Then why should I die?
I died just to find a way for you to survive.
"In this case, brothers, we can't sit still and wait for death!"
"If we wait any longer, when their rockets are ready, we won't be able to fight back!"
"Brothers, get on your horse and charge with me!"
"Even if he dies, we will still bite a piece of his flesh!" Cao Hong ordered, and the remaining several hundred leopard riders mounted their horses one after another.
However, the ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny!
Cao Hong thought that he would die anyway. Before he died, he would replace some of Zhang He's soldiers.
However, the power of this cavalry mainly lies in the charging power brought by speed.
Now, Cao Hong and the others were surrounded by an army led by Zhang He. They were surrounded by a defensive circle composed of shields.
In addition to the shield, there are also spears densely packed like hedgehogs.
Cao Hong led his men to attack left and right, but the casualties they caused to Zhang He's army were very small.
"Hmph!" Zhang He snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "It's just a trapped beast still fighting. It won't cause any big trouble."
It seems that there is no end to Cao Hong!
At this moment, a troop of soldiers suddenly shot out from the flank.
The leader of the group used a mixed-iron spear to charge left and right, and all the soldiers blocking the road were blown away, like a kite with its string cut off.
"Pioneer Officer Le Jin is here!"
"Zhang He, don't be so crazy. You are already surrounded by the Prime Minister! If you don't kneel down and surrender quickly, you are seeking death!" Le Jin yelled as he went to kill Cao Hong.
Last night, Cao Hong came first, and then Le Jin came.
This really made Zhang He panic a little!
Zhang He thought to himself, could it be that Cao Cao's army is really nearby?
Zhang He hesitated slightly, but Le Jin had already led his army to the formation and joined forces with Cao Hong.
When Le Jin reached Cao Hong's side, he said to Cao Hong: "Zilian, follow me and go out to kill!"
When Cao Hong heard this, he quickly asked: "Didn't you say that the Prime Minister has surrounded them?"
"In this case, why should we go out to kill?"
"If you ask me, let's just go in and kill the general, seize the flag, and capture Zhang He alive."
Le Jin gritted his teeth and said, "I lied to him. How could the Prime Minister come so quickly?"
"Not to mention the Prime Minister, it will take several hours for Li Dian to arrive."
"Last night I saw flames coming from the direction of Yecheng, and I knew that the situation here was urgent. So, I handed over the army to Commander Li Dian, and I led the two thousand people to get there first from the small road."
"When I arrived, I saw you surrounded here, so I took the risk to rescue you."
"Stop talking nonsense and come with me."
Only then did Cao Hong realize that Le Jin's feelings were a bluff. So, he quickly asked his brothers to follow Le Jin's soldiers and horses to fight outside.
Le Jin is a fresh force, while Zhang He's men are all tired.
However, it gave Le Jin the opportunity to cut a hole in Zhang He's military formation and escape into the mountains and forests with Cao Hong's troops.
Just when Zhang He was about to give the order to pursue him, he saw the treetops swaying in the surrounding woods, as if there were troops marching in the woods.
For a moment, Zhang He couldn't figure out whether there was an ambush in the woods.
"Jun Yi, don't chase the poor bandits!"
"The plan for now is to rectify the troops and not to pursue them for a long time!" Tian Feng arrived at this time and said to Zhang He.
At this time, Tian Feng looked very embarrassed and disgraced, like a beggar.
With Tian Feng's persuasion, Zhang He no longer planned to pursue him.
The main thing is that the risks and rewards of pursuing Cao Hong and Le Jin are really not worth it.
Cao Hong and Le Jin did not have many soldiers and horses. Even if they caught up, the result would not be great.
However, if they were ambushed, their losses would be huge.
The camp was destroyed last night, Yecheng was not captured, and the soldiers suffered heavy losses.
At this time, Zhang He continued to discuss with Tian Feng what they should do next.
Cao Hong and Le Jin have already arrived, which means that Cao Cao's main force should not be far away.
Whether they can capture Yecheng before Cao Cao's main force arrives is still unknown.
