Chapter 1375: A Hundred-Foot Ditch Surprised

When Li Yan and Yan Xing arrived at Yuchi Mountain, Huang Zhong was ready to set off the camp. Novel. After receiving Sun Ce's order, he handed over Huang Wan, He Kui and others with Yan Xing. The next day, he quietly left Heilonggou and headed west before dawn.

Two days later, Huang Zhong appeared in Longshan, southeast of his father's city, and went east along Longshan River to the west bank of Rushui. Relying on the protection of Rushui, he rushed northward. Huang Wan left people and horses in his father's city, with about two thousand people, and was more than enough to defend the city, but he did not have the courage to go out to fight. Seeing Huang Zhong passing outside the city, he did not dare to neglect, so he immediately sent someone to Xiangcheng to report.

Yi, Xun Yan was surprised when he received the news. The heroes saw the same thing, and Sun Ce also expected that the passage in and out of Luoyang was the key, and he acted immediately. However, they delayed the time because they wanted to report to Yuan Shao and who would report to Yuan Shao. Now the arrow is on the string and has to be fired, and the situation is already a little passive.

Yi did not dare to delay any further, so he decided to jointly ask Yuan Shao for advice with Xun Yan, and at the same time sent two thousand Hun cavalry to pursue him, and to do everything possible to delay Huang Zhong's marching, seize the favorable terrain, and prepare to intercept Huang Zhong.

Although he was caught off guard, Yi was not worried. First, the man could not run the horse, and although Huang Zhong took the lead for thirty or forty miles, this was not important, and the cavalry could catch up with him soon; second, even if he arrived at Jia County first, he could not conquer Jia County. The only thing he could do was to continue moving forward, rush to Huoyang Mountain Pass, and defend the dangerous situation.

Xun Yan reminded Yi that Huang Zhong might set up an ambush along the way. There are several rivers nearby. If Huang Zhong set up an ambush at the water and shoot with a strong crossbow, it will cause great harm to the cavalry. The last time he went to Bei in Fenqiu and was defeated by Sun Ce, his morale had been frustrated. If he was defeated by Huang Zhong this time, it would be hard to say whether these Xiongnu cavalry dared to go into battle in the future. The cavalry on the grassland always only liked to fight with the wind, and it would be difficult to make them fight to the death.

Yishen agreed and solemnly warned the Xiongnu Khan Yu Fuluo, who was in charge of the troops, to strengthen his vigilance and send more scouts to avoid being surrendered.

Yu Fuluo was indignant. He felt that Yi's tone was very harsh. These Han people were a little self-righteous and looked down on the grassland people. Yi regarded himself as the number one general in Hebei, and he was also proud of his ability to defeat the cavalry with his steps. He never respected the Xiongnu cavalry and was defeated by Sun Ce. Yi said nothing in front of him, and he laughed at the Xiongnu people behind his back, and did not take him seriously at all.

Yu Fuluo was very angry and wanted to have a refreshing victory, proving that the Hun cavalry was not incompetent, not only a ranger, but also a scout, and could still fight the Han army head-on. After leaving Xiangcheng, he walked along the Rushui River, determined to catch up with Huang Zhong, and vented his dissatisfaction.

Xiangcheng is east of Rushui, but there is a Baiqi ditch between Xiangcheng and Rushui. Baiqi ditch is not wide but very deep, and it is said that the bank is high and is known as a hundred feet high, so it is named. After Baiqi ditch passes through Xiangcheng, it turns east more than ten miles north of Xiangcheng, and connects with the Ying River, and the flow direction is uncertain. When the Ying River is strong, it flows south into Rushui, and when the Rushui River is strong, it flows north into Ying. If Yu Fuluo wants to travel north along the Rushui River, it must first cross Baiqi ditch. There is a bridge on Baiqi ditch, which is opposite to the west gate of Xiangcheng, and there is also a road not far from Xiangcheng. Because Huang Zhong was stationed in Yuchi Mountain before, there was a large army stationed in the west gate of the west gate, which was inconvenient to enter and exit, Yu Fuluo then left the north gate of Xiangcheng and crossed the bridge in the north of the city.

The bridge is too close to Xiangcheng. Once something happens, even infantry can arrive within half an hour, and the cavalry can arrive in an instant. Yu Fuluo was still angry in his tone, and he didn't expect any danger. Seeing that half of the cavalry had crossed the bridge, he kicked the horse and was about to get on the bridge, but the mount under his foot suddenly neighed. No matter how he kicked the horse, he didn't dare to get on the bridge.

It was when Fuluo was in a state of fire, the wooden bridge in front of him suddenly shaking, making a creaking sound, and it became louder and louder. The knights crossing the bridge were panicked, some were driving forward, while others wanted to retreat and were in a mess. In the panic, some horse hooves fell into the gap in the bridge deck, and the horses were in pain and neighed, and the situation became even more chaotic.

Yu Fuluo was furious and cursed, ordering his personal guards to come forward to kill the knights in chaos. Before he finished speaking, there was a loud bang on the wooden bridge, and the entire bridge deck collapsed. He fell into the water with dozens of knights on the bridge, causing a splash of water to soar into the sky. Yu Fuluo was frightened by all this in front of him and was at a loss. At this moment, several feathered arrows broke through the wind and rushed straight to Yu Fuluo. Yu Fuluo was completely unprepared and hit two arrows in a row, turning over and falling off the horse.

The changes in front of the guards attracted their attention and did not pay attention to Yu Fuluo's arrows. When more feather arrows were shot, the guards were shot one after another, and they realized that this was not an accident, but a premeditated ambush. At this time, they remembered Yu Fuluo, turned around and looked around, but could not see Yu Fuluo's figure, only the empty saddle.

The guards realized that Yu Fuluo fell off the horse and were shocked and quickly got off the horse to search. However, the scene was chaotic, the war horses were out of control, and countless horse hooves were trampled back and forth. It was not easy to find someone. It was not until a guard was held on his ankle and looked down, and he found that Yu Fuluo was lying in a pool of blood, hit by two arrows, and was trampled on by the war horses, and was dying.

The personal guards did not dare to neglect them, so they lifted Yu Fuluo up, placed it on the horse's back, turned the horse's head, and ran towards Xiangcheng.

The knight who had already crossed the bridge was unknown, so he looked at the chaotic scene opposite Baichigou and didn't know what was wrong.

In the chaos, several figures quietly fell down the river bank, mixed with the Hun knights falling into the water, and drifted northward along the ditch.

Yi's face turned pale, Xun Yan's face turned pale, and he didn't say a word.

The Xiongnu Khan Yu Fuluo was ambushed and killed as soon as he left the city. This setback was too great.

There were rapid footsteps outside the door, and Ji Bei and a dozen guards broke in with alcohol on their faces. When they saw Yu Fuluo who was motionless on the couch, they were furious. "What's going on? Fortunately, they left the city just now, why were they so injured?"

Xun Yan frowned and looked at Juhu. What Qubei said was the Huns' words, but he couldn't understand a single word. Juhu could understand a few words. Juhu met him and just explained a few words. Juhu raised his hand and slapped Juhu on the face. Juhu was unprepared and fell to the ground.

"Prevent!" Yi was furious and shouted loudly: "Take it down for me!"

"Here!" With a roar, dozens of Xiliang infantrymen rushed up and without saying a word, overturning Qubei and his personal guards to the ground. Yi strode over, swung his arm round, slapped Jubei on the face, and slapped him again with his backhand. Jubeilian was slapped twice, his face immediately swollen, and he woke up from wine. Looking at Yi, who was like an angry lion, he was trembling and didn't even dare to let one fart.

"You useless Hu dogs, and you still have the face to act wild here. The dignified Shanyu don't know how to guard the march? Such stupid people deserve to be imprisoned, so they will die sooner." Yi cursed, and was so angry that he raised his legs and kicked Yu Bei. Ji Bei grinned in pain, but he didn't dare to say a word. Xun Yan was afraid that Yi would beat Yu Bei to death, so he hurried forward and hugged Yi and dragged Yi away.

"Yuntian, Yuntian, what should I do?" Xun Yan was a little panicked. "This is the Xiongnu Shanyu."

Yi's eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth and glanced at him. He suddenly pulled out his battle knife. "Don't do it, and never stop, just chop it all and throw it into a hundred-foot ditch! Shanyu is dead, and it's a big deal to chop the Right Xianwang."

Quebei was frightened and struggled desperately, but could not break free from the control of the Xiliang infantry, so anxious that he burst into tears. Seeing this, Xun Yan hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, and shouted desperately at Jubei. "Youxian King, Shanyu was buried in the middle and died, which has nothing to do with us."

After waking up from his dream, he quickly said loudly: "It was Huang Zhong, and it was Huang Zhong who killed Shanyu, which had nothing to do with the two generals."
