Chapter 154 The Horse Boy
kill!
A Boling thief held the ring head knife tightly in his mouth, and climbed on the ladder with both hands and feet. Yingtao is a small county town, and the city wall is not very high. At the top of the city, he kicked his feet hard, and suddenly appeared on the top of the city, grabbing the handle of the knife.
With a horizontal swipe of the ring head knife, a bright knife light slashed across, cutting a hole in the arm of the Han army on the opposite side. Although the Han army was injured, he took a step back calmly and waited for it.
Seeing this, the Boling thief was in a position of strength and relentlessness. He stepped forward and slashed left and right with a long knife in his hand.
More than a thousand Boling thieves boarded Yingtao City, and the defense of the city was in jeopardy for a while. If things go on like this, they might be able to take the city in a short time, but Chu Feiyan's face is serious.
"Come here, go and see why the foster father hasn't come back yet?"
Chu Feiyan waved his hand, and several riders around him galloped away immediately, but turned back after a while, surrounded by Zhang Niujiao, but attracted the eyes of more than ten thousand thieves around him.
I saw Zhang Niujiao covering the front door tightly with one hand, his face and hands were covered with blood, he looked dying, his body couldn't sit still for a long time, and he just stood upright with the help of his relatives around him. right away.
Suddenly there was a sound of shouting and killing from behind, and under a big flag with the character of Liu, hundreds of horsemen galloped wildly, chasing after Zhang Niujiao, shouting loudly.
"Grab a horn!"
"The one with the arrow on his face is Zhang Niujiao!"
Zhang Niujiao was in excruciating pain and tried his best to endure it, but he was startled when he heard the shout behind him: "Liu Ye is here, Liu Ye is here! Run!"
When Chu Feiyan saw Liu Ye nailed firmly behind Zhang Niujiao's buttocks, she immediately became anxious: "Go and save the father-in-law." The tens of thousands of troops couldn't care less about continuing to besiege Yingtao City. The commander is right in front of him. reason?
The army of more than ten thousand opened a hole in the middle to welcome Zhang Niujiao into the battle. Chu Feiyan rushed to meet him, but seeing Zhang Niujiao's appearance, he couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Father, what's the matter with you?" Chu Feiyan stretched out his hand and gently hugged Zhang Niujiao, looking at the arrow piercing his eye socket, he couldn't help asking in a trembling voice.
Zhang Niujiao opened his mouth, but was too weak to speak. He just pointed to the arrow shaft stuck in his eye socket, and Chu Feiyan nodded with tears in his eyes.
And Chu Feiyan's more than ten thousand people are not like Zhang Niujiao's ten thousand people who are too tired to stand up, they still have the strength to fight, and the formation is relatively tight, so Liu Ye just leads his troops to wander around the periphery, but is not in a hurry Instead of launching an attack, they are looking for the weakness of the bandit joint.
But at this time, waves and waves split open a passage in the bandit army formation, more than ten thousand people split to the two sides, and one rider, surrounded by dozens of riders, rode out slowly, it was Chu Feiyan.
Chu Feiyan cupped his hands in the distance: "Liu Hou, Chu is not talented, I have a request, how about Liu Hou listening?"
Liu Ye also rode his horse forward until he was less than 30 steps away from Zhang Yan. If he rode his horse and made an assault from here, Chu Feiyan's head might not be safe. However, Chu Feiyan was a little courageous, and she didn't avoid it, which made Liu Ye feel embarrassed to make a move.
"Let's hear it, but if you invade the prefectures and counties, you will protect the environment and the people, so I'm afraid there is nothing to talk about."
Chu Feiyan said sternly: "A foster father was shot by Liu Hou's arrow, and now he is in danger. I hope Liu Hou will let me wait so that someone can go back and ask a famous doctor to treat his foster father. Liu Hou is also a man with a father and a mother, so he must be able to do so." I understand my filial piety."
The Han Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety, and the emperor himself set an example. It can be said that the atmosphere is very simple. When Chu Feiyan asked to save his adoptive father, even many Han soldiers showed sympathy, but Liu Ye could not let him go so easily. , No matter how you have to knock two bamboo sticks.
Liu Ye said with a smile: "You are dedicated to saving your father, and I admire you very much. It is not difficult to let you go, but you need to agree to two conditions."
Chu Feiyan nodded: "Liu Hou, please tell me."
"First! As long as you live, you must not invade Julu County."
"Someone agreed."
In fact, Liu Ye wants to protect the whole Jizhou, but the other party is a group of Jizhou people. Jizhou is the richest of the Hebei states. It is basically impossible for them not to invade Jizhou. Anyway, I am in Julu now, so let them not invade Julu. Yes, maybe in the future I will still be grateful for my kindness here.
Hearing that Chu Feiyan agreed without any hesitation, Liu Ye nodded: "Second, if you offend our state and county, you must leave behind a thousand horses."
Chu Feiyan was stunned for a moment, Liu Ye was like a lion, and it was quite heartbreaking for him to take out a thousand horses in the heyday of the Black Mountain Army, let alone now.
Yuan Shao who unified the four prefectures of Hebei can be regarded as rich and powerful, right? The strength he used in the battle of Guandu was 100,000 troops and 10,000 horses. A thousand horses is really not a small number.
Chu Feiyan hesitated a little, and sighed: "To tell you the truth, Liu Hou, there are thousands of horses in this army, and the army really can't get them out."
Liu Ye laughed loudly: "Could it be that in your heart, the life of the adoptive father is not as good as a mere thousand horses?"
Chu Feiyan gritted her teeth and opened her palm with five fingers.
"Five hundred war horses! Please Liu Hounian be filial to Chu and let my father and son live."
Although Chu Feiyan paid back the price, the 500 horses had reached Liu Ye's psychological price, so Liu Ye nodded: "Leave the 500 horses, and you can leave later, as soon as possible."
Chu Feiyan gave the order, and the soldiers on horseback in the army jumped off their horses reluctantly, stroked the horses under their crotch a few times, and then walked back to the formation, some of them even shed tears.
In fact, this is normal. Weapons and armor are the most intimate things for a soldier. For cavalry, a war horse is probably closer than a wife and son. Running.
Liu Ye waved his hand, and Guan Hai led his people forward, counted the number of horses, and expressed his affirmation to Liu Ye.
Liu Ye nodded in satisfaction: "Since the horse is here, let's go, but remember that you will not invade Julu County in the future!"
Zhang Yan sent his subordinates to collect the defeated soldiers. The army surrounded Zhang Niujiao and left, while Liu Ye led the troops into the city. He was immediately treated like a hero in Yingtao City, but he didn't show much.
To Liu Ye's surprise, he got 500 war horses provided by Chu Feiyan. Last time, this kid gave him a lot of horses, and this time it was another 500 horses. He really is a real horse boy.
In the past, Liu Ye's five hundred cavalry had one man and one horse, but now it is the standard one man with two horses, and their endurance and combat capabilities have been greatly improved.
