"General, why are we headed in the direction of Yuzhou? Shouldn't we go to Fancheng!" On the road, a huge cavalry unit was galloping. These cavalrymen were wearing white clothes, and their horses were also white. , It can be said that they are all in white. They are carrying two big flags, one of which has the word Zhao written on it, which is the banner of the general, and the other is written with the words "White Horse Congyi".
This cavalry unit is one of Liu Mang's trump cards, Baima Congyi.
The lieutenant at the side was complaining to Zhao Yun that there was a battle to be fought in Fancheng, but they had been coveting those Xiliang iron cavalry for a long time, and they were thinking about how to deal with them, but now they are in the opposite direction. , This time, after Xinye and the main force parted ways, Baima Congyi not only did not follow, but instead walked towards another line of defense. This direction was not to Fancheng, but to Yuzhou by detour.
"Going to Yuzhou is naturally my lord's concern! Just follow the order!" Zhao Yun said directly to his lieutenant general without talking nonsense.
"But!" The lieutenant wanted to say something, but when he saw Zhao Yun's eyes, he closed his mouth again.
"Whoever said that if you don't go to Fancheng, there will be no battles to fight (top-point) novel! You must know that our task is very heavy!" Zhao Yun's words comforted the lieutenant general. Where is there any battle to fight at the border of Yuzhou? Are you going to attack the city? And now the only elite in Yuzhou is the Qingzhou Army, but the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army will not come out, so why should they be stationed in Yuzhou like before
"Report, report!" Just when Lieutenant General Zhao Yi didn't understand, a group of cavalry ran back.
These are all the scouts of Baima Congyi. Zhao Yun threw out most of the soldiers and horses under his hands when he was in action, and acted as a scout. It can be said that there are basically actions of Baima Congyi in a hundred li radius. Report every half hour.
"Report to the general that there are no soldiers in the north!" This team of scouts ran over to report to Zhao Yunhui.
"Continue to investigate!" Zhao Yun said to the crowd.
"Yes!" The scout clasped his fists and led away. A moment later another group of cavalry arrived.
"Report to the general that there are no soldiers and horses to the south!"
"Explore again!"
"yes!"
"General. What do you want?!" Zhao Yi didn't understand. He didn't know what his general was thinking. They are now in the middle of Quewei Slope and Anle City, and they can see everything in a hundred miles. Where will there be ambushes or something, do you need to release the scouts, and put the scouts hundreds of miles away, this is too careful.
According to Zhao Yi's idea. Now we should find a place with shallow water and go directly across the south to go to Fancheng and block the retreat route of Fancheng. This is the right way.
Zhao Yun didn't answer, and another half an hour passed.
"Report, report, report! Report to the general, to the east, there are soldiers and horses leaving the city from the direction of the ancient city!" A group of white horse scouts came to report.
"Is it finally dispatched?!" Zhao Yun finally showed joy on his face.
"General?!"
"Come from the direction of the ancient city! Is there no movement in Anle City?!" Zhao Yun continued to ask.
"Anle City has not moved at all!"
"It seems that the defense force of Anle City is not strong! So we need to dispatch troops from the direction of the ancient city!" Zhao Yun explained.
"General, are you going to attack Anle?!" Anle is the city of Yuzhou. Hearing Zhao Yun say that Anle's defense is not strong, Zhao Yi's heart suddenly became hot. This is to attack the city. Taking the city of Yuzhou is also a credit.
"Attack on Anle? Who told you?" Zhao Yun said to Zhao Yi with a smile.
"Isn't that what you said, General!" Zhao Yi was completely confused by Zhao Yun, what kind of medicine was sold in this general's gourd. This is Nanyang County after crossing the river. Is there anything to delay here in Yuzhou
To attack Anle, if Zhao Yun still has thousands of infantry in his hands, then Zhao Yun can take down Anle City, but Zhao Yun only has three thousand white horses in his hands, and Zhao Yun will attack Anle if he is stupid. There must be thousands of defenders, and they don't have a siege weapon in their hands, so they use human heads to pile them up.
"Then go kill those soldiers who left the city?!" Zhao Yi subconsciously used doubtful words.
"It's not necessary!" Zhao Yun waved his hand. Another half an hour passed.
"Report to the general, Anle's defenders have also moved! Heading towards Quewei Slope!" Another scout returned.
"Oh!" Zhao Yun took out a map. Although it was crude, it still marked the directions of Quewei Slope, Anle, and the ancient city. Zhao Yun looked at the soldiers and horses starting from the ancient city and the soldiers and horses leaving the city from Anle. Zhao Yun's eyes lit up immediately after comparing the direction of sending troops.
"Sure enough, my lord is right. This Liu Bei will definitely be transported directly to Yuzhou, not to Nanyang County!" The most elite soldiers and horses in Nanyang are the Xiliang cavalry, and the rest are basically not worth mentioning. Because of Zhang Xiu, Nanyang was far less popular than other counties and counties. Zhang Xiu didn't know how to govern, so Nanyang County's background was limited. Before attacking Fancheng, Liu Bei had already planned his retreat.
"General, what are you talking about?!" Zhao Yi asked after listening to Zhao Yun talking to himself.
"Nothing!" Zhao Yun didn't have time to explain to Zhao Yi, "Zhao Yi, you have been complaining that there is no battle to fight! Okay, now I will give you a task!"
"Really?!" Zhao Yi felt an internal injury. Earlier, Zhao Yun carried out his lord's order and went to Fancheng to fight, but he left Zhao Yi in the rear, and went back to Xinye with a large army. After taking a rest, waiting for Zhao Yun and the others to come back, listening to those robes who followed Zhao Yun talk about the battle, made Zhao Yi's heart itch.
Originally thought that there would be a chance in the battle of Fancheng, but who knew that the general would not go to Fancheng directly, and now when he heard that there was a battle to be fought, this Zhao Yi immediately jumped up.
"There is no joke in the army! Zhao Yi obeys orders!"
"The last general is here!" Zhao Yi hurriedly lowered his head to accept the order.
"Zhao Yi, the general ordered you to lead the two thousand white horses under his command to stay here from Yi Jianer, and take the soldiers and horses from the ancient city and Anle to have a good time. Remember not to love to fight. Drag me three hour!"
"Two thousand soldiers?!" Baima Congyi had a total of three thousand soldiers. Zhao Yi was given 2,000 soldiers and horses, so what about the remaining 1,000 soldiers and horses
"The last general takes orders!" Two thousand white horses from righteousness did not seem like much. But riding with two people, coupled with the saddle and stirrup of the white horse Congyi, it can be said that this is also a terrifying force.
"The remaining one thousand soldiers and horses follow me!" Zhao Yun didn't explain much, and left directly with a white horse from the thousand-man team.
"Let's go, let's meet the soldiers and horses of Yuzhou too!" As soon as Zhao Yun left, Zhao Yi also let go of the horse's whip, and the horse's hooves of Bai Ma Congyi roared on the land.
"This shock?!" On the opposite side came out from the direction of the ancient city. Guan Ping rode on the horse and walked in front of the trilogy. The lord's grain transport team. In order to transport the food smoothly this time, Guan Yu took out half of the elite Qingzhou soldiers in his hands. There were 5,000 Qingzhou elite soldiers and 5,000 auxiliary soldiers, a total of 10,000 people, and there were also 5,000 soldiers in the Anle direction. Thousands of soldiers and horses, that is, 15,000 people and horses, are all used to transport food and grass.
Although Guan Ping didn't have much experience, he could still sense the vibration, "This is cavalry!"
"The whole army stops and stands on guard!" Guan Ping made the safest solution. Infantry combat in this wilderness is no match for cavalry, and escape is even more extravagant. How can a person with two legs run faster than a person with four legs
The only way is to form an array, and only by relying on an array can the cavalry be defeated.
The 5,000 Qingzhou soldiers and horses in Guan Ping's hands were all elite veterans, and they quickly formed a battle formation. The 5,000 auxiliary soldiers over there were also under the scolding of their respective generals, although they were messy, it was an excuse.
Soon the cavalry appeared on the horizon, Guan Ping was riding on the horse and could see one horse after another jumping in front of his eyes, which made Guan Ping really nervous.
Those cavalrymen were all dressed in white clothes and armor, and most of them were riding white horses. Those princes in the northwest and those in the north may be commonplace, but for the princes of the Central Plains, war horses are really as expensive as gold.
But the part in front of me actually uses one person and two horses, how extravagant it is.
If Guan Ping knew that everyone in this gang of white horses was wearing silk clothes, then he would know what luxury is.
"Very good!" While Guan Ping was observing Baima Congyi, Zhao Yi was also watching Guan Ping's formation.
A circular formation, this is a tortoise formation, without the slightest technical content, but it is good to let these auxiliary arms form a battle formation so quickly, which side is the elite and which side is the miscellaneous brand. Come out, as for the other side, they are even more confident, and even set up a hook formation. ,
Hook-shaped formation, the front line must be square, and the left and right must be hooked. This is the easiest formation to change. This battle formation can be attacked or defended. If the enemy is weak, then it can be converted into a cone-shaped battle formation to attack the enemy. , if the enemy is too strong, it can be turned into a circular formation for defense.
"Hmph, I'm still thinking about fighting back! It's a good idea, but it depends on who you meet! Brothers, enjoy our prey!" Zhao Yi raised the spear in his hand, and his subordinate Baima Congyi immediately split up Two roads galloped away from both sides of the entire Guanping army.
"White Horse from Righteousness?!" Guan Ping finally saw the banner of this cavalryman. White Horse from Righteousness. Guan Ping was stunned for a moment. An uncle mentioned that Baima Congyi was not under the former Baima General Gongsun Zan. My lord always misses this brother from the same school. Back then, Baima Congyi of General Baima was someone Guan Ping envied and admired. Foreigners did not dare to invade, but now this soldier and horse he worshiped turned out to be hostile, and Guan Ping's palms could not help but sweat.
"Ah, they are coming, they are coming!" Qingzhou soldiers and horses are fine, after all, they have fought countless battles, but the auxiliary soldiers and horses over there are miserable, all of them are frightened, they have never seen cavalry charge. , Before waiting for the enemy to come to the front, they all jumped up in fright, and were about to break out of the formation and prepare to escape.
"Don't panic, don't panic!" Guan Ping shouted loudly, the enemy is only two thousand, and we have ten thousand. What are you afraid of! Guan Ping roared, waving his saber. But how could these auxiliary soldiers listen to Guan Ping's words? This is about to start rushing.
This group of auxiliary soldiers was improvised from Yuzhou. Yuzhou had no money and food, and it would be difficult for Guan Yu to recruit troops if he wanted to. Therefore, he could only take part of the defenders, part of the county soldiers and government servants.
"Kill!" The Baima Congyi who passed by yelled deliberately and loudly to kill, which frightened a bunch of them again.
Seeing that the formation was going to be messed up, Guan Ping was also red-eyed. If the formation is broken up like this, it will be over. Those auxiliary soldiers are in a circular formation with the strongest defense.
"Whoever dares to back off will be killed!" Guan Ping gave an order, and the group of Qingzhou elite soldiers also shouted in unison. When they made a move, those who charged into the formation were immediately beheaded. This gang of Qingzhou soldiers really scared many people by killing them like this. If they retreated, they would die. There is still a way to survive standing still, and these auxiliary soldiers also understand this. Even if the calf is still shaking, even if the whole body is not well, you have to persevere.
"It's not bad!" Zhao Yi couldn't help being a little impressed by the leader of the Yuzhou Army, he was able to stabilize the army's morale with two brushes.
Zhao Yi saw that the banner flying over there was the big banner of Guanzi. Could it be that Guan Yu from Yuzhou had come, but it didn't look like it, but no matter who it was, Zhao Yi's task was to delay these people.
"Brothers, show them some tricks!" Zhao Yi greeted, and the gang of white horses put down their sabers from the horses and put them back into the scabbards, and took out another one from the horseback. thing.
"They only have two thousand people, and they are all light cavalry! We don't need to be afraid of him, even if it is to exchange one life for another!" Guan Ping cheered up the soldiers and horses below.
"Major General, look at them!" The lieutenant next to him reminded Guan Ping.
"Bows and arrows?!" Guan Ping was stunned when he saw the movements of those white horses Congyi. The group of white horses Congyi all took out their bows and arrows and wound them up.
"Bluffing!" Guan Ping immediately came to a conclusion. Archery on horseback is called horseback archery. This kind of skill can only be shot by the elite. For those who did not come, if there were only dozens or even hundreds of people, then Guan Ping believed a little bit, but now that the entire Baima Congyi raised their bows and arrows, naturally Guan Ping did not believe it.
But the fact is that Guan Ping has to believe it, "Impossible, impossible!"
"Brothers, shoot!" Zhao Yi led two thousand white horses from Congyi and passed in front of the Yuzhou army, leaving countless arrows besides the dust all over the sky.
"Ah!"
"My eyes, my eyes!" Guan Ping's army was well fed this meal of arrows. If Guan Ping had asked his subordinates to defend with shields just now, it would have reduced the damage. Ping Dajun left hundreds of corpses in vain, and even Qingzhou soldiers died a hundred or so.
"Damn it!" Guan Ping really didn't expect that the white horse Congyi could ride and shoot from the horses. Guan Ping paid the tuition with blood.
"The major generals are here again!" Before Guan Ping had much reaction, the white horse Congyi galloped back and forth under the leadership of Zhao Yi, and another wave of arrows rained down.
"Raise the shield, raise the shield!" Guan Ping is not an idiot, he won't suffer a second time if he suffered a loss once, each giant shield towered up, but there were a lot of arrows in his crotch.
"Hey, I learned to resist!"
"Change!" Even with a huge shield to resist, there is no time to dodge, and it is not his behavior to suffer losses like this.
"Major General?!"
"I said change formation! Flying geese formation!" Guan Ping yelled at his lieutenant general.
"Yes!" The deputy general nodded and waved the command flag in his hand. Qingzhou soldiers and horses are indeed elite, especially after being trained in Guan Yu's hands. Not Zhang Fei, Zhang Fei relied more on his own martial arts, so the Qingzhou soldiers under Guan Yu quickly changed positions.
"So fast!" Zhao Yi didn't expect that the Yuzhou army would change formation so quickly, Zhao Yi was careless, he guessed the enemy was wrong.
"Raise the bow!" Guan Ping shouted in the Yuzhou army formation, and soon the geese formation was set up, and the archers among the thousands of Qingzhou soldiers all took out their bows and arrows.
"Shoot!" Two generals, two armies. The two opponents roared out in unison.
Arrows rained all over the sky. The blood that falls is bound to splatter.
"What!"
"What!" Both Guan Ping and Zhao Yi looked into their own eyes in disbelief.
Zhao Yi couldn't believe that the Baima Congyi he was carrying lost in shooting. Although they are riding and shooting, you must know that they have stirrups and there is no difference between being on horseback and on the ground. But now I have not been able to bring the previous injuries, not to mention, my Baima Congyi has also suffered casualties.
"What!" What Guan Ping couldn't believe was that although his side had the upper hand, the casualties were still much greater than that of the white horse Congyi on the opposite side. He even saw seven or eight white horses hanging from his body. arrow.
"Aren't they light cavalry!" Guan Ping didn't understand. If they were heavy cavalry, they wouldn't be afraid of the rain of arrows. But why didn't this rain of light cavalry arrows cause much damage
"Change horses!" Zhao Yi said coldly. Under the wave of arrows just now, Zhao Yi also killed more than a dozen brothers and injured hundreds of people. Even Zhao Yi himself was scratched by the bow and arrow. The leather armor on his body blocked it, maybe Zhao Yi was going to be popular.
"My lord's silk clothes are really worth this price!" Zhao Yi looked at the injured person behind him, the dead Baima Congyi was out of luck, and one of them was taken care of by dozens of arrows , or just hit the front door with one blow. The others were wounded, and the bows and arrows were all inserted into the leather armor on their bodies. The Baima Congyi pulled out the bow and arrow from the leather armor, and the arrows were all dyed red, but there was only blood without flesh, which reflected the benefits of the silk clothes on their bodies.
There are barbs on the arrows of the ancients. As long as you hit someone, you will not be shot to death on the spot, but the arrow will sink into your body. If you don’t pull it out, then he will continue to bleed , if you pull it out, it will directly carry the flesh, or even the tendons, which may cause more damage. Therefore, many veterans of war generals have been injured by arrows in the battlefield. They can only use the bow and arrow The tail was removed, and the arrow was left in the body to wait for the battle to end before dealing with it. Whether he survived or not was left to fate.
However, after Liu Mang equips Baima Congyi with silk clothes, it is different. The silk is smooth, and one piece of silk clothes is not enough, so every Baima Congyi is wrapped in several layers, and there is leather armor on the outside. Protection, the arrows shot by the bow and arrow hit the person after passing through the leather armor, and his strength is not as strong as before. It may not be able to bite the flesh when it hits the smooth silk, even if it bites , that is also shot into the flesh with the silk, as long as the silk clothes are pulled, the arrow can be pulled out, and because the arrow is wrapped in silk, its barbs will not come out of the flesh.
Pulling out the arrows directly is not an easy task, not to mention the pain, these guys from the White Horse Congyi didn't even groan, they pulled out the rain of arrows one by one, and then stopped the bleeding a little with mutual help. Some white horses saw that the arrows shot at themselves were not completely broken or even intact, so they directly collected these arrows and put them in their backpacks.
"What kind of wind is blowing now!" Zhao Yi suddenly asked the white horse Congyi who was beside him, making people stunned, "Wind direction!" Zhao Yi remembered what Zhao Yun said when he was teaching him how to shoot arrows. It is possible to fly to farther places with your bow and arrow.
"Yes, it's the direction of the wind!" Zhao Yi laughed loudly. Now he finally understands why they were at a disadvantage when they were shooting against Qingzhou soldiers just now. It was the wind. Walking against the wind naturally wouldn't do much damage, even if he used a hard bow of two stones, the wind would offset the strength of the rain of arrows in this headwind.
"Come again now, let's see what else you can use to resist!" Zhao Yi took Baima Congyi away again. corpse.
"Haha. Haha!" Zhao Yi grasped the direction of the wind and shot arrows above the downwind outlet, while against the wind, he made a detour and shot again when he reached the downwind outlet. During this killing, Guan Ping found that he had an army of ten thousand in his hands. Thousands of people have been killed or injured.
"Wind!" Guan Ping could also see that the general of Baima Congyi was taking advantage of the wind direction, and Guan Ping also wanted to use it, but he was a mobile force, and you could only defend passively in foot combat, so he could change directions at will. And his soldiers and horses can't.
"Major General, let's go on like this. We!" Someone reminded Guan Ping. If this continues, the battle damage will be too high. If one person is killed or wounded, ten will die here. How can the fight continue.
"Continue to inform, even if ten lives are exchanged for one life, we will still make money! Let the brothers persevere." Guan Ping became ruthless, and he wanted to see if this white horse Congyi was exhausted.
"Their arrows are limited!" Guan Ping's idea is that your cavalry can carry more arrows than their footsteps.
But Guan Ping still miscalculated, because the white horse brought a lot of arrows from righteousness. Baima Congyi originally used bows and arrows when Liu Mang asked him to build an army. After all, they are light cavalry, and it’s okay to bully them. If they encounter the same heavy cavalry, they can’t go up and resist. Heavy armor infantry battles also rely on bows and arrows to dawdle.
The game is a war of attrition. Baima Congyi has two war horses per person, one horse holds a hard bow and sword, and the remaining one is food and bows and arrows. The base number Liu Mang gave them was five pots per person. It is impossible to shoot the Yuzhou army to death seven or eight times with the amount of arrows. Two or three times to flog the corpse is still possible.
This time, Guan Ping lost another thousand people. This time, most of them were elite soldiers from Qingzhou. After all, they were shooting at each other. Naturally, both sides had to shoot at the shooters. Now Guan Ping only had more than 4,000 Qingzhou soldiers left.
The auxiliary soldiers over there were even more horrible, almost losing more than half of them.
"Circular array!" Guan Ping gritted his teeth, and could only form a circular shield. All the giant shields were lifted up, and everyone bowed their heads. Now they have completely turned into a big turtle.
"General, here!" Bai Ma Congyi is not afraid of those who dare to come over and fight you, and those who run after your ass, but what you are most afraid of is this kind of big tortoise, fighting over there is like a tortoise shell The same, making it hard for you to speak.
If it was normal, Zhao Yi would have scolded his mother, but this time Zhao Yi sneered, "When is it now!"
"Go back to General, it's only around noon now!"
"It's noon!" Zhao Yi looked at the sun above his head. They were dispatched at the time of Si. It has been more than an hour now, and the task given by General Zhao Yun was to delay them for three hours, and there was still half of the time. time.
"If you become a turtle, you will become a turtle. Anyway, there is plenty of time!" Zhao Yi was not in a hurry.
"Shua, Shua, Shua!" The countless arrows were like the rain in the south, without stopping at all, and Guan Ping only felt aggrieved in the circular formation, the defensive power of this circular formation was there, The casualties of the soldiers under him also decreased. Although it was still unavoidable, it was much better than before. This was the third wave of arrow rain, but the casualties did not exceed a hundred.
"Major General, do we have to wait until the enemy's rain of arrows stops?" A general asked from the side.
"This rain of arrows won't stop for a while!" Guan Ping shook his head.
"Then what to do, if this continues, our army will be finished!" Some generals were anxious. Although the casualties were small, they couldn't stand the exhaustion, and the main thing was the morale of the soldiers, which was already insufficient. , the Qingzhou soldiers are okay, but the auxiliary soldiers are already trembling, and if this continues, they may collapse.
"No!" Guan Ping shook his head. It is impossible for the army to die, because no matter how many arrows the White Horse Congyi used up like this, it would not be able to afford it. It is obvious that the scale of the rain of arrows has been shrinking, but Guan Ping is Worry about another thing.
They didn't start from the ancient city this time, but came directly from Runan. They just supplemented it in the ancient city. Their task is to go to the Quewei slope to meet the grain and grass sent by the lord from Fancheng, Jingzhou. If this delays .
"Not good!" Baima Congyi appeared on the land of Yuzhou. Guan Ping's eyes widened. "Their target is not with us!" .
"Got it? It's a pity it's too late!" Zhao Yi saw the commotion in the Yuzhou army. It has been two hours now, and if he sticks to it for another hour, he will surely succeed, and then Zhao Yi can retreat completely.
"General, general, they're moving!" the general beside Zhao Yi shouted, pointing in the direction of the Yuzhou Army.
"Huh?!" Zhao Yi was stunned for a moment and saw the entire Yuzhou army suddenly move, but Zhao Yi was confused by the movements of the Yuzhou army.
"What kind of formation is this again!" I saw the middle army of the Yuzhou army opened wide, and a group of people rushed out from inside, and they scattered in the direction of Baima Congyi.
"Don't die?!" Zhao Yi didn't understand what the Yuzhou army was thinking. Is the whole army defeated? The interior is broken.
"Retreat. Retreat!" Zhao Yi asked the white horse under his command to avoid it. Because there is no need to go forward, if this is a broken soldier and horse, going up now will only increase casualties, cavalry is still suitable for chasing after the rear. They were not heavy armored cavalry, if they were Zhao Yi, they would have charged already.
"No! Look, general, their central army is still the same!" Someone reminded Zhao Yi.
"Their direction!" Zhao Yi saw Guan Ping and the others' direction, which was towards An Le, they were going to Quewei Slope.
"Combined forces!" Zhao Yi remembered. In the direction of Anle, there was still a trilogy dispatched together. The general of the Yuzhou Army wanted to join forces and move towards Queweipo in a circular formation.
"We can't let them pass!" Zhao Yi's face turned cold. Because he came to intercept the Yuzhou Army, he didn't care about An Le's soldiers, and An Le's soldiers were not far away, at most range of ten miles.
"Shoot, shoot, shoot!" The white horse Congyi roundabouted in from the flank of this Yuzhou soldier horse again and again, and then roundabout out again. But it has been unable to stop the advance of this soldier and horse. Zhao Yi didn't let Baima Congyi charge forward because Baima Congyi was too expensive. A white horse is worth as much as a centurion's foot battle.
Those on the periphery are all those auxiliary soldiers. Guan Ping is ruthless, and he is ready to sacrifice these auxiliary soldiers. Let the auxiliary soldiers serve as the first layer of armor to block Qingzhou soldiers. He wants to join forces, as long as Anle's soldiers When it arrives, it is completely possible to fill the vacancy of the auxiliary soldiers.
"Kill, kill, kill!" Baima Congyi has already shot and killed more than two thousand people, but he just let the Qingzhou soldiers take off their outer armor, but the Qingzhou soldiers inside did not suffer much loss.
"Look, major general!"
"Look, general!" Both sides saw another route of soldiers and horses above the official road. The five thousand people carrying the flag of Yuzhou were An Le's defenders.
"Haha, An Le's defenders are here!" Guan Ping was overjoyed, as long as the troops were united, they could re-arrange the battle formation and advance slowly. These light cavalry had no way of attacking him.
"Let the auxiliary soldiers charge again!" Guan Ping ordered to the generals below.
"Young general, the auxiliary soldiers are gone!" the general of Yuzhou bitterly shouted at Guan Ping. The auxiliary soldiers were almost exhausted just now. Because Guan Ping threatened, if he didn't rush out, his family would definitely be disturbed, and the auxiliary soldiers had already reached a path of collapse. After being so excited by Guan Ping, these people rushed out desperately .
But it can only be used twice, all five thousand auxiliary soldiers and horses have been handed over here, and the rest are just a hundred people.
"Then take the Qingzhou soldiers!" Guan Ping didn't care about anything else, he was determined to complete the task assigned by his father.
"Yes!" A Qingzhou soldier general nodded helplessly, and came out as ordered.
"Where are the Qingzhou soldiers coming to sacrifice? Well, have the guts!" Zhao Yi saw that the Qingzhou soldiers came out to intercept him. There were only a thousand Qingzhou soldiers, but once they got entangled, they would give the Yuzhou army time. up. Moreover, Baima Congyi is too precious for gold. Every Baima Congyi pagoda is made of gold, and every one of them will die with heartache.
Zhao Yi gritted his teeth, "Go around them!" Zhao Yi's white horse Congyi let go again, the two-legged one couldn't outrun the four-legged one, and Zhao Yi's arrow rain also fell down at the same time as it overtook them. , There was a bloody wind, but because of the detour, Baima Congyi was thrown away for a while.
"Chasing!" There is still an hour to go, but now the Yuzhou army is getting closer and closer to Quewei Slope, and one after another, thousands of people will go to stop Baima Congyi and force Baima Congyi Righteous detour.
"Quewei Slope, Quewei Slope!" A general shouted, "Quiewei Slope is dead in front!" There is a towering hill ahead, just like the tail of a magpie. When you see this iconic building, you will naturally Cheers, their goal is about to be achieved.
And the 15,000 Yuzhou Army now has less than 7,000, but it doesn't matter, with these 7,000 soldiers and horses, it is already possible to form a defense line, not to mention the lord's delivery of food and grass. As long as the food and grass are protected Then Guan Ping's task is completed, as long as the camp is built and waiting for reinforcements.
"When is it now!" Zhao Yi shouted loudly with his eyes turning red. Zhao Yi is not a fool. Naturally, he thought of where General Zhao Yun had gone. forage. Zhao Yun went to rob the enemy's food and grass.
"The general is half an hour away from three o'clock!"
"There is still half an hour!" If this group of enemies appeared behind General Zhao Yun, the consequences would be unimaginable. What Baima Congyi fears most is that the terrain is restricted by people. On the bank of the river, the terrain has begun to become rough, and the road has become narrow. If it is blocked by people, it will really be over.
"It's too late. It's too late!" Zhao Yi's eyes widened. Because of the road problem, the speed of his two thousand white horse Congyi was not as fast as those with two legs. There were many bumps under the horse's feet. People only need to go around, but war horses need to jump over.
"It's over!"
"Haha, Quewei Slope, Quewei Slope is here!" As long as you can enter the Quewei Slope, you will no longer be short of grain and grass when escorted to Yuzhou.
"White horse follows righteousness, follow me to kill!" Just when Zhao Yi was about to avenge his general. A group of cavalry jumped out from the magpie's tail slope.
"General, General!" Zhao Yi was stunned. Isn't it their general Zhao Yun who charged down from the slope with soldiers and horses
"Kill, kill, kill!" Baima Congyi also shouted, each of them abandoned their war bows, picked up their swords and charged forward.
They are cavalry, even light cavalry, but they are also cavalry, their main means are bows and arrows, but their knives with swords are not bad at all, and now there is a silver-armored general with a gun at the head, even more like a The sharp blade pierced directly into the enemy's chest.
"Array, array!" Guan Ping shouted loudly, but because of the long-distance travel, his subordinates were already exhausted, and there was no energy left. Zhong unexpectedly rushed out of the enemy army, and the morale of the Yuzhou army was completely exhausted.
"The army was defeated?!" Guan Ping was stunned. When he went out to fight, he had an army of 10,000, including An Le's army, it was 15,000, but now he was defeated.
"Major General, Major General, let's go!" Guan Ping still wanted to struggle, but the generals of the Qingzhou Army on the side really held him back. They can be defeated, but Guan Ping cannot die. Don't go back, and if you save Guan Ping, then everyone still has a way to survive.
Whether Guan Ping is willing or not, he is everyone's talisman, and he carries everyone's life on his body. During Guan Ping's hard struggle, he was caught by the Qingzhou defeated army and took the road in the direction of An Le.
"Chasing, chasing, chasing!" The spear in Zhao Yi's hand was also stained with a lot of blood, and just as Zhao Yi was fighting really hard, a steady voice came from the side.
"Stop chasing! We still have things to do!" Zhao Yi turned around, and this was his general, Zhao Yun.
"General, the last general is incompetent! If you fail to complete the general's task, you will be punished by the general!" Zhao Yi knelt down and clasped his fists at Zhao Yun when he saw Zhao Yun.
"Slap!" The response to Zhao Yi was not Zhao Yun's words but a direct slap. Zhao Yun's force was so strong that blood was already flowing from Zhao Yi's face, but Zhao Yi didn't dare to complain at all.
"Do you know what's wrong with me?" Zhao Yun asked very calmly.
"The fault of the general is that he failed to complete the mission of the general!" Zhao Yi replied, but it was obvious that Zhao Yun was not satisfied with this answer at all.
Zhao Yun sneered and pointed at the group of white horses and said, "Baima Congyi is cavalry, cavalry, the master's elite, not cowards. In addition to bows and arrows, we also have swords in our hands!"
On the battlefield, Zhao Yi has always been avoiding battles. He is afraid of confronting the enemy head-on with the white horse Congyi. Although the white horse Congyi is a light cavalry soldier, he is also a cavalry soldier after all. He is a warrior and an elite. Not a coward who has been avoiding war.
"Get up!" Zhao Yun didn't blame Zhao Yi too much, "One person rides one, and the rest of the horses gather together!"
Although Zhao Yi didn't understand, he did as he did. In addition to the horses lost on the battlefield, the legs of those horses were also chopped off and recycled. There were more than 3,500 extra horses. It shows that more than 500 white horses have left them forever.
"This, this!" Zhao Yun led Zhao Yi and the others along the not-so-wide magpie-tail slope towards the inside, and when they reached the ground, Zhao Yi was stunned by the scene in front of him.
At a glance, they are all grain trucks.
"General, these grains?!" Zhao Yi asked.
"These are part of the grain and grass that Liu Bei of Yuzhou obtained in Fancheng. There are also gold and silver!" Zhao Yun explained. There are a full 200,000 stones of grain and grass, and tens of thousands of gold, which can be regarded as half of Liu Bei's income in Fancheng.
If Liu Bei sends this batch of supplies to Yuzhou, then Yuzhou will definitely regain its vitality. Even if Nanyang County doesn't want it, Liu Bei will still make a lot of money. He can even rely on these food, grass, gold and silver to once again become the threat of the lord .
There are still many prisoners on the side. These captives amounted to thousands of people, and each of them lost their weapons. They stood aside and looked at Zhao Yun with a look of fear in their eyes.
Zhao Yun really showed in front of them a scene of taking the head of an enemy general among thousands of troops. How could they not be intimidated? Their main general was beheaded before he could walk out of Zhao Yun's hands for three rounds. up.
And they are just the defenders of Nanyang County. They belong to the second-rate troops. After the main general was killed, they dropped their weapons and surrendered one by one. The defenders of Nanyang County are basically without family affairs, otherwise they would not It will be in Nanyang County.
"Take them, let's go back to Yangzhou!" Zhao Yun fell down immediately after saying this. Fortunately, Zhao Yi helped Zhao Yun up in time, and after touching Zhao Yi, he discovered that Zhao Yun's body was already stained red with blood. Those who have enemies in their blood also belong to Zhao Yun himself.
"General, general!" Zhao Yun completely fainted. Not only did Liu Bei send the defenders of Nanyang to escort the food and grass, but also the commander of a thousand cavalrymen from Xiliang, the leader of the Qiang tribe named Zamuhe Liu Mang miscalculated, he did not expect that Liu Bei would let the iron cavalry from Xiliang come to escort the grain and grass from the beginning, but Zhao Yun only had a thousand white horses in his hands, and the white horses were light cavalry, if it was the heavy armored cavalry before, then it would be fine, Zhao Yun will definitely win, but the current Baima Congyi has become a light cavalry. If it is in the wilderness, Zhao Yun is sure to use a thousand white horses from Yi to completely kill the thousand Xiliang iron cavalry. But he didn't wait for anyone, and Zhao Yun didn't have enough wilderness for him to use it, so he could only use one word, fight!
A thousand white horses fight against a thousand Xiliang iron cavalry from righteousness, and there are thousands of Nanyang defenders beside them. Liu Bei's Xiliang iron cavalry knows that anyone can surrender, but they must not surrender to Liu Mang's army in Yangzhou, because Liu Wei is in Gwangju Outside the city, they killed all the Qiang cavalry with Han blood on their hands. This group of Qiang barbarians naturally knew that surrendering was death, so they were extraordinarily crazy.
The final result was that in two and a half hours, half of the white horse that Zhao Yun led died in the battle, and the rest were injured. Zhao Yun was also seriously injured, while the entire army of Xiliang iron cavalry was wiped out. The main general Zamuhe was nailed to death by Zhao Yun. On the horses, more than 1,300 defenders of Nanyang died, and the rest surrendered. It can be said that Zhao Yun's charge down from Quewei Slope was already at the end of his battle, but he was just persisting.
…
"Is Zilong injured?" Liu Wei, in Xiangyang, Jingzhou, saw the information in front of him, and suddenly became restless. Zhao Yun is Liu Wei's most promising one among Liu Wei's team. In terms of military training, Baima Congyi is really about to leave the army in the hands of Zhao Yun. The most important thing is Zhao Yun's unparalleled loyalty. To put it bluntly, it is foolish and loyal.
As soon as he heard that Zhao Yun was injured, Liu Mang couldn't sit still. He didn't even look at the other things written on the letter. The seizure this time is really quite a lot. There are 200,000 grain and gold. Said that this war has not yet been fought, Liu Mang has almost got what he wants, but Liu Mang is still restless.
"No, I want to go back to Yangzhou!" Liu Mang couldn't sit still. He wanted to go back to Yangzhou. He was really worried about Zhao Yun's injury, and he was even more worried about the level of medical treatment at the end of Han Dynasty. In Liu Mang's room, there was a In the secret compartment, there are medicines brought by Liu Mang, there is only a little left, Liu Mang planned to keep it for future use, but he still has to take it out for Zhao Yun.
"My lord, my lord!" Seeing that his lord was about to rush out, Jia Xu hurriedly stopped him, "My lord, my lord, how can you go back to Yangzhou now!" Not to mention that Liu Biao won't let Liu Mang leave now, Even if it is allowed, you must know that Jingzhou and Yangzhou are attacking Fancheng now. It can be said that Liu Mang is a running-in agent between them.
It's not that Liu Mang doesn't know Lu Bu's temper. If there is any conflict with this Jingzhou general, it will be a lot of fun. Mr. Lu Bulu is someone who can kill people directly.
If this is really killing, then wait for Jingzhou and Yangzhou to go to war! Maybe in the end, Liu Bei was raped by Jingzhou for no reason.
So Liu Mang can't leave.
"Then what do you say now!"
"Wait and see! My lord, even if you go back now, you will miss General Zilong's treatment!" (To be continued...)
