Chapter 65: Watching the Fire from the Other Side
On the hillside outside the city, a cavalry army of 3,000 men covered itself with the help of dense woods.
"Damn, why do you have to be named in broad daylight, and the horse picks the bell." Sun Ce kicked away a small pebble in front of him and complained.
(The ancients would give each soldier a small wooden strip during night raids, bite it with his teeth, prevent himself from talking, and call him a title.) There are bells on the war horses, on the one hand, it carries the meaning and blessing of peace, and on the other hand, it is also to remind the cavalry and infantry when they are in a hurry, there are people here and do not bump into them. At the same time, the horse's mouth is also put on a horse chew to prevent the horse from roaring, and a cloth is wrapped on the sole of the horse's feet to prevent the horse from making a sound when it moves. )
Suddenly, a huge force came from Sun Ce's buttocks, causing him to lose his balance, and a flat sand goose fell to the ground.
"Uh, which straight thief... Suddenly, Sun Ce's mouth was covered stiffly.
As soon as Sun Ce looked up, he saw Cao Chun standing behind the position he was standing in front of him, Cao Chun glared at him fiercely, and Sun Ce was suddenly frightened into a cold sweat. Then he turned his head and looked at the person covering his mouth, it was Cao Zhen.
Sun Ce nodded at Cao Zhen, meaning good brother, really talk about righteousness, otherwise I will be miserable, please drink after this battle.
Cao Zhen shook his head and said don't care, they are all brothers, but if you have a drink with a treat, this can be had.
Cao Chun's 3,000-strong tiger and leopard cavalry had already arrived outside the city of Luoyang City, but he did not take the initiative to attack.
Cao Chun is not a reckless man, although the tiger and leopard cavalry under his command is elite, but after all, he has only fought a small fight, and has not experienced a real big battle.
Sun Ce, Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu, and Xiahou Shang are among them, and Sun Ce and Cao Xiu have experienced a big battle, and Sun Ce has also personally participated in the big war, but Sun Ce's record, well, won a hundred battles when fighting those second- and third-rate guys, so Guo Jia, well, was taught how to be a person again.
Cao Chun was waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity that would be fatal enough for one blow.
Moreover, he knew that Cao Cao's purpose was to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, if there were 8,000 troops around the Son today, if he was on it, it was estimated that the Son of Heaven would not take himself in his eyes, and it would be even more difficult to bring the Son of Heaven to Xuchang.
There is also the group of people around the Son of Heaven, who are eager to be promoted and make a fortune, and will definitely clash with Cao Chun and others at that time, and may even start a war, he doesn't want the tiger and leopard to suffer heavy losses in the first battle.
Finally, there was the man with a big axe, Cao Chun felt that the momentum on that person's body was very strong, he should be a first-class general, and he was quasi-first-class, and he never took that step.
In addition, Mingjingtang's Jingzhou Governor Lu Chang and Yizhou Envoy Yin have sent people to quickly send news that Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao and Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang have already led a large army to come, that is to say, his enemies are far more than those generals around Li Dao, Guo Yan and the Son of Heaven.
Moreover, Cao Chun had a hunch that although there was no news from Zhu Gai, the envoy of Jizhou Zhenfu, Yuan Shao was very likely to send troops, and if there was no shortage of cavalry in the world, it would definitely not be the Xiliang princes, but Yuan Shao.
Jizhou guaranteed Yuan Shao's money and food, and the state guaranteed the number of war horses, plus most of Qingzhou, Yuan Shao was enough to form a huge cavalry army.
Therefore, in this battle, he not only has to win, but also to ensure his follow-up combat strength.
Cao Chun stared at the battlefield below, and he had to admit that this Son of Heaven was not so incompetent as the legend said, no wonder Cao Cao, Guo Jia, and Xun Yu all reminded him to beware of the Son of Heaven before he set off.
The Son of Heaven personally participated in the battle, and with a few words of incitement, the morale of the people below had reached its peak.
Li Wei ordered his son Li Shi to command the army in the rear, and he himself went into battle.
He had already lost two nephews, and this was his only son, and there could be no more mistakes. Moreover, he Li Zhiran was also the strongest general under Dong Xiangguo and other than Lu Bu and Hua Xiong. The last time he fought against Xu Huang, it was because he had enjoyed the glory and wealth for too long that he lost his ruthlessness and courage to fight hard, in the final analysis, he was too afraid of death now.
He wants to make the people of the world recall his name Li Zhiran!
Li Wei waved the spear in his hand and rushed into the cavalry of the Southern Huns.
The decapitation tactic was the best way for them to deal with the Huns back then. The Huns were already scattered and disorganized in battle, and the army without the command of the leader was extremely prone to confusion and rout.
"Flying bears don't break!"
"Flying bears don't break!"
Li Wei's spear was extremely strong, obviously a spear, but it was wielded like an axe, opening and closing, picking off the Hun soldiers one by one.
"the lowly! Your grandfather Li Dao is here! ”
Li Dao saw Qubei, he knew Qubei, Dong Zhuo and the Southern Xiongnu also cooperated at the beginning, so he recognized the appearance of Qubei.
Qubei's face was a little unkind, his army was considered to have suffered heavy losses, and even faintly defeated, so he must not retreat, once he himself retreated, his troops would be directly defeated.
But Li Dao is also a first-class general, he is a second-rate mid-term, and he hasn't even touched the quasi-first-class threshold, how can he fight with Li Dao.
But there was no way, the reality didn't give him too much time to think about it, so he rushed forward with a mace and tried to drag Li Dao, everything just depends on Yang Feng and the Son of Heaven.
Bite!
Li Dao's spear and the humiliated mace collided together.
It stands to reason that Li Dao, who uses a gun, should not directly take a blow from him directly and directly with a mace, but Li Dao, who has abandoned the idea of being afraid of death, chooses to hit head-on.
Qubei felt the tremendous force coming from the mace, his face turned red, and his arms trembled a little.
Is this the combat power of a first-class general?
He shook his head, put the fearful thought behind him, and fought with Li Dao again.
The guns and sticks collided with each other, and the tiger's mouth, which had only been humbled for twelve rounds, had already been stained red with blood.
"Drink!" Li Wei took advantage of the victory to pursue, swung a shot, and endured the pain humbly, still wielding the mace in his hand.
The best defense is offense, if he is purely defensive, the weight of the mace will make his physical strength run out faster than Li Dao, so he must rely on offense to drag Li Dao.
Click.
Li Dao's spear is broken!
A trace of panic flashed in Li Dao's eyes, this...
No matter how good Li Dao's spear is, he can't help Li Dao's fierce fighting style, not to mention that he still takes the same fierce route against Shangbei, and he still uses a mace.
Warriors have a rule: hammer and axe, stick general, no defeat.
And Li Dao is guilty of this, you must know that no matter how well the spear is forged, if the handle of the spear is wooden, it will eventually break.
The corners of the humble mouth curled, you just started beating me and I played very well, didn't you? Now, it's my turn.
