Looking at the majestic momentum of Pang De's three hundred knights, who were galloping towards the Wu army's water camp closer and closer, there was a trace of worry on the level of the city.

The worried look seemed to be full of clouds.

In short, he was uneasy at this time, secretly worried, and was deeply afraid that Pang De would attack the Wu army camp this time, and there would be no return!

But although he knew that the enemy was outnumbered, Guan Ping had to make such a choice.

Now, because Guan Yu's headquarters were blocked in Hanjin and did not return to defense, there was a shortage of garrisons in Jiangling City, and it was necessary to recruit people to help defend the city.

However, the disparity in strength between the two sides was huge, and Guan Ping was worried that when the people defended the city, they would panic due to the fierce offensive of the enemy, and instead drag down their own soldiers.

Therefore, Guan Pingcai discussed with the fierce general Pang De in advance, and after waiting for the siege of the Wu army, it was decided to use Pang De to lead the only hundreds of knights in the city to attack the weakest side of the enemy army.

Break the Wu army's formation, rely on Pang De's bravery, capture a Wu general in the army of ten thousand, and then return!

In this way, Guan Ping was able to publicize this battle report and inform the people in the city that the Wu army's combat strength was vulnerable and could be broken at the first break!

Be inspiring in this way!

In this way, the panic of the people who were called up to the city would be greatly contained.

As for why Pound was chosen instead of the rest of the generals.

This is also due to the fact that in the Jingzhou army, only Pang De is now a person from Xiliang, who is very good at leading knights to fight, and he is also strong in martial arts, and has the courage to be unstoppable!

Therefore, he is also the only most suitable person this time.

Suo Xing, Pang De used to be a Cao general, and he may have the slightest hesitation when facing the enemy Cao Jun, but now against the Wu army, Guan Ping believes that he will definitely do his best to break through the Wu army camp.

Because, he himself did not have the slightest relationship with the Wu thief, and there was no reason to be soft-hearted.

On the contrary, he was desperate to defect to the Jingzhou army, in order to gain fame, and now he is ashamed to fight against Cao Jun.

Since Wu Jun is coming, for the sake of fame and fortune, he doesn't need to be reminded by Guan Ping, he will naturally go all out.

This is also the reason why Guan Ping is very relieved.

Of course, after Pound led the crowd out of the city, he was naturally worried.

After all, these 300 war horses are the only ones left in the city, and once they are lost in this battle, in the future, facing the battle with the Wu army, the advantage of land warfare will also be in vain!

The south is not like the north, and it does not produce horses.

But the war horse is a strategic resource, at this time the three-legged stand, Sun Liu and Cao Wei are enemies, Cao Cao naturally strictly controls the border, and strictly orders that horse dealers are not allowed to go to the south of the Yangtze River to sell horses.

Once discovered, the horse merchant was killed on the spot, and the war horse was charged.

It is this harsh law that in recent years, there are very few war horses that can flow into Jiangnan!

Therefore, now the Knight Legion is extremely valuable to the Jingzhou army, and if one dies, there will be one less, and there is no spare strength to replenish it.

Jingzhou army a total of 1,000 knights, including Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang into Shu, successively led 400 horsemen to, in recent years, Guan Yu often fought fiercely with the Cao army, but also captured a part of the horses, Jingzhou army expanded to more than 800 horsemen.

In this battle, the Northern Expeditionary Army took away 500 horses, and only 300 horses were cautious in the city.

In a short period of time, Pound led the crowd to push forward, and it was also close to the water camp!

Inside the water camp.

"Report."

"General Qiqi Han, our sentry cavalry has just found out, and there is about a Jingzhou army of more than 100 horsemen at the south gate galloping towards our army's camp."

"General Han, how should our army respond?"

Hearing this, Han Dang, who was in the main position, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, his eyes moved slightly, and he muttered: "Oh, the Jingzhou army actually took the initiative to fight? ”

"Did the scouts find out if the enemy army had a follow-up force to go out of the city?"

At this time, when he heard the news of the military situation, Han Dang, a veteran with an old face and white sideburns and beard, couldn't help but show a hint of surprise and asked slowly.

When the words fell, the herald did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly said: "General Han, the scouts have not found any battle reports that the rest of the Jingzhou soldiers have left the city. ”

"Oh, send hundreds of knights alone, and charge alone."

"Could it be that he Guan Ping thought that hundreds of people would be able to crush our army?"

At this moment, Han Dang's surprise became more and more intense, and he muttered to himself.

"You quickly go to pass on the general's order, and order the generals to assemble at the gate of the camp to surround and annihilate this arrogant enemy knight who does not know the height of the sky."

However, after thinking for a moment, Han Dang's words instantly became thick and he ordered loudly.

When the order was laid, the herald heard the news and immediately surrendered his promise to withdraw and went to deliver the order.

At this time, Han Dangcai picked up the war knife that was placed on the side, and then walked straight out of the camp, standing outside the tent, his eyes were furrowed, and his eyebrows were densely covered with layers of dark clouds.

"Guan Ping, do you really want your only knight legion to die?"

"Or is there another trick?"

Until this moment, Han Dang couldn't believe that hundreds of knights could overwhelm his thousands of soldiers.

After all, knights are not invincible either.

As long as the formation is in place, the pikemen and crossbowmen cooperate closely, and then set up horse rejection stakes and tripping ropes along the front of the formation, the foot soldiers will not be able to compete with the cavalry!

Besides, now the enemy army is only more than 300 horsemen, and it is too easy to encircle and annihilate it.

Han Dang was full of confidence after a short hesitation at this time.

After all, if he can't even wipe out hundreds of horsemen, then he, a veteran of a hundred battles in Eastern Wu, can also go home and hold his child.

Secondly, Han Dang is not Sun Quan, and the whole army will be scattered by eight hundred people.

Therefore, thinking of this, Han Dang's self-confidence suddenly filled his mind, and he became more and more determined to annihilate the knights of Jingzhou.

Since the Wu army has always coveted Jingzhou, they are also spying on the situation of the Jingzhou army at any time, and naturally they also know that there are not many knights.

Now, since the Jingzhou knights took the initiative to attack, Han Dang naturally would not avoid the battle, and it would be excellent to be able to completely annihilate or severely damage this knight!

At the very least, in future land battles, the pressure on your side will be much less.

Outside the water camp, on the flat ground.

At this moment, Han Dang was holding a war knife, leading the way in front of the soldiers, and behind him were the sergeants in formation.

After waiting for a while, the sound of "stampede" resounded from far and near, and as the distance between the two sides got closer and closer, the originally faint sound gradually became deafening.

At this moment, the Wu soldiers in the formation were also trembling physically and mentally, and they were vaguely affected by the sound of iron hooves, and they felt the slightest fear.

Although the scale of Jingzhou knights is only more than 300 horses, the sound of the battle hooves is also trembling, which is deafening!

Seeing that his sergeant was affected, the general from the side couldn't help but show worry on his face, and arched his hand: "General, do you really want to fight?" ”

"The last general always feels that this is a conspiracy of the enemy, otherwise, with Guan Ping's treachery, the enemy's military strength is already at a disadvantage, how can he send hundreds of knights out of the city to assault our army, and hit the stone with an egg?"

For a while, Han Dang's partial generals raised doubts.

Hearing this, Han Dang's face remained unchanged, he smiled lightly for a moment, and said, "Don't worry about this matter!" ”

"Outside Jiangling City, this square and round land, all plains, 9 at a glance, the situation of more than ten miles can be clear, Guan Ping wants to set up an ambush outside the city, and suddenly kills at a critical moment, which is impossible."

"So, don't worry about an ambush attack."

After a pause, he continued to laugh and said: "As for him sending hundreds of knights to fight, I would have thought that this was nothing more than Guan Ping's desire to win a small victory over our army before the battle began, and boost the morale of the army in the city." ”

As soon as he spoke, Han Dang was also a battle-hardened celebrity, and after thinking about it for a while, he also guessed his intentions.

"Of course, this battle must be fought by our army."

"Otherwise, if this matter spreads, and thousands of people in our army don't even have the courage to face hundreds of enemy cavalry, then our army will lose their hearts, so Guan Ping can also take the opportunity to publicize it in the city and boost the morale of the army and the people."

"At that time, it will be even more difficult for our army to break through the city!"

Slowly explained, Han Dang had already made up his mind to fight.

When the words fell, the rest of the generals also understood the meaning, so they no longer doubted, and restrained their subordinates one after another, preparing to meet the enemy.

"The whole army obeyed the order, and the sword and shield men moved forward to resist the onslaught of the enemy cavalry."

"The pikemen are in the center, and they can stab the enemy under their horses at any time."

"Crossbowmen help each other on both flanks to prevent the enemy from breaking through our army with mobility."

"Remember, once the sword and shield hands can't resist, immediately retreat, let the enemy cavalry into battle, and then the whole army will go out together to besiege the enemy army, and with the advantage of many troops, besiege the enemy cavalry."

A command, Han Dang issued various military orders forcefully.

Han Dang, who was originally a person from the northern frontier, has been learning bow horses since he was a child, and is naturally no stranger to the war cavalry.

As for this time, more than hundreds of horsemen have already galloped and killed!

At that end, Pang De was holding a big knife in his hand, and his eyes had even vaguely seen the battle flag of the Wu army, and he couldn't help but suddenly burst into momentum, and his face suddenly laughed, and then shouted: "Sons, there are Wu thieves who invade us ahead." ”

"For the sake of merit, for the sake of honor, follow the generals to kill and crush the enemy."

"Kill, kill."

When the order was passed, hundreds of knights also soared in momentum, and then formed a formation, gathered around Pound, and centered on it, like an arrow from the string to attack the enemy formation.

At this moment, a fierce battle is also progressing, and the surrounding aura seems to be accumulated, about to break out!
