The lead-gray sky was like a mirror that had lost its luster, and large pieces of dark clouds were driven by the wind and swept in the direction of the Yellow River flowing in the distance, with a surging majesty and vicissitudes.

However, the majestic sight of the strange land in the sky is still overshadowed.

In the dust, thousands of horses galloped, the sound of golden drums shaking the sky, blood flowed like a river, and hundreds of thousands of troops were waging a big battle of forgetting life and death.

Thousands of cavalry dressed in various colors of hukou rushed through the defensive formation of nearly 10,000 infantry in waves, among the long knives, countless heads rolled and fell, and the spears like dense forests stabbed out alternately, and from time to time cavalry fell off their horses, and the blood reflected the eyes of the soldiers of the two armies.

Before the Hu cavalry could rush out of the chaotic formation of the infantry and regroup, the shouting was deafening, at least 30,000 infantry phalanx rushed up with the finished glyph of their own drums, and the dense jungle-like lance halberd stretched out from behind the boundless shield array, and attacked directly towards the Hu cavalry's greatly reduced battle formation.

"Bow! Bow! In the midst of the Hu cavalry, violent roars rang out, and the Hu cavalry returned their swords into their sheaths with unimaginable speed, bent their bows and arrows, and pointed diagonally at the enemy phalanx in front.

In the terrible howl of the wind like a flock of thousands of birds flapping their wings into the air, thousands of powerful arrows weaved into a dense net that darkened the sky, covering the enemy in layers.

In a series of impacts like rain and lotus leaves, the infantry phalanx withstood a violent and intensive attack, and the infantry's large shields were instantly filled with feather arrows, and from time to time someone let out a long cry and fell down, but the entire zigzag infantry shield array still continued to kill with a majestic momentum.

Flags were unfurled in the distance, and behind the infantry shield array, rows of archers with heavy quivers rumbled forward to the sound of neat footsteps to the beat of the drums. As the first row of archers wound their arrows, they took a posture of back-shooting as they moved forward, followed by countless scalp-numbing "clicks". Rows of archers threw their bows up, ready to fire.

"Put!" More impressive than Hu Cavalry's arrow attack, waves of arrow rain poured out overwhelmingly, and the dense swarm of locust-like arrows swooped down lightly when the sky reached a height that could hardly be reached. Suddenly, the sky was filled with terrible whistling sounds.

"Ahh In the Hu cavalry array, countless cavalry seemed to have been hit by a head-on stick, and fell straight from their horses, and the sturdy war horses also overturned and tilted in the stormy long-range blows, letting out bursts of dying sorrows.

Under such a powerful blow, the remaining Hu cavalry could no longer maintain the momentum of the attack, and they reined in their horses one after another. Retreat in the direction of the main formation.

"Attack!" Under the banner of many embroidered with the word "Yuan", a majestic roar shook the audience.

The drum beat changed again, and the three imposing infantry phalanxes suddenly accelerated their pace, and chased down in the direction of Hu Cai's retreat with a thunderous sound of killing. As their speed increased, the large group of archers was pulled away.

In the midst of the great earthquake, two Hu cavalry appeared ghostly from behind the low hills on both sides of the battlefield, and poured down the mound like a tide, attacking the left and right flanks of the three infantry phalanxes respectively.

In the infantry phalanx, the officers shouted again and again. As soon as the outermost halberd-wielding soldier turned around and set up a position to meet the attack, the enemy cavalry had already killed.

Like red-hot blades, as soon as the two sides touched, the two cavalry plunged deep into the waists of the two infantry phalanxes on the left and right. Caused a big mess.

The infantry phalanx in the center was hesitating, not knowing whether to continue to charge forward to kill the enemy, or divide troops to help the friendly forces left and right, but the Hu cavalry, who had already retreated in front of him, suddenly turned back and killed again in the sound of a horn. Quickly get mixed up with the enemy.

Not only that, but in the dust behind the cavalry that had not yet settled, the sound of footsteps was thunderous. A hoplite appeared and filled the gap in the cavalry. Under the coordination of infantry and cavalry, it was like mercury pouring down on the ground in an instant, penetrating everywhere, shaking the entire infantry phalanx.

The archers behind the three infantry phalanxes were in a commotion, because the battle situation in front of them had already shown that the enemy was in the enemy and we were in the enemy, and it was difficult to carry out a covering attack.

After the battle, the main general Ling Qi unswervingly flew up and down, making the eyelids of the commander of the archer troops jump, he gritted his teeth, and finally gave the order to attack again.

Waves of arrows poured down again, falling on the heads of both the enemy and us, and the screams immediately resounded in the sky. Although the archers had deviated from a certain direction of attack as much as possible in accordance with the general's orders, they still wounded countless of their comrades under the arrows.

Seeing that the three infantry phalanxes were about to completely collapse under the double blow of the enemy and us, the drums sounded again, the sound of killing shook the sky, and countless soldiers and horses poured out again after the banner of the word "Yuan", forming one phalanx after another to press forward.

On the Hu cavalry side, the horn sounded behind the formation, and all the troops involved in the attack stagnated, and in the fierce battle, the front team turned into the rear team and slowly covered the slowest hoplites to retreat to the rear of the formation. This was an almost impossible and difficult maneuver, but it was completed in a high-speed maneuver with the wind and lightning speed, and the cavalry turned back and fired arrows in retreat, which made many enemy troops who wanted to pursue them hate the arrows.

Even so, it was difficult to stop the initiative of Yuan's side, and at least four or five 10,000-strong phalanxes that had just formed crossed the battlefield full of dead corpses without hesitation and rushed towards Hu Qi's main formation.

In the Hu cavalry, a general in golden armor jumped out of his horse, and with the point of his spear, a large rain of arrows rose from the ground behind him, and almost completely flattened the protruding front part pursued by the enemy.

The spear was pointed again, and then the roar of ten thousand beasts erupted, and a cavalry of Hu people, almost completely unarmoured, galloped out of the battle naked, and they carried their spears flat, and counterattacked the tens of thousands of enemy troops on the opposite side with overwhelming momentum.

Just as a bloody battle broke out between the two sides again, all the faces of all the Yuan soldiers suddenly changed, even if the sound of killing on the battlefield shook the heavens and the earth, it was still difficult to hide the terrible sound of thunder in the distance.

In the sand and dust that was directly connected to the sky, a cavalry army of about 20,000 people appeared from a distance, and went straight to the right flank of Yuan's weakest defense, where the three infantry phalanxes of Shicai fought bloodily.

In the large array of the Yuan army, the sound of the alarm gong sounded sky-high, but no matter how fast the generals of the army were, it was impossible to form a defensive formation in time.

Two armies. Three-way connection...... Almost instantly, the right flank of Yuan's army was torn apart, and the cavalry rode down the colorless enemy troops at the forefront, and then sent the spears in their hands into the flesh of the fleeing horses, and then let go, drew their swords, and slashed indiscriminately. As the cavalry became more and more vigorous, the entire front of Yuan's army was irretrievably defeated.

Fortunately, the commander of the Yuan army was also a man who knew the soldiers, and he had already advanced before the 20,000 enemy cavalry broke through. He had ordered the archers to shrink in clusters, and laid a temporary defensive line in front of the Chinese army, and at this time, he shot locusts like no money, barely protecting the tens of thousands of scattered troops of the front army to retreat to their own positions.

At the same time, the two sides sounded the horn of the army, and the bloody battle, which lasted for most of the day, came to an end for the time being.

As the sky grew, about 3,500 Hu cavalry and their mounts fell on the battlefield, and it was difficult to see the rising sun tomorrow, and on the other hand, Yuan's army was on the side. However, at least more than 30,000 infantry corpses were scattered all over the battlefield....... and in the first battle, the Yuan coalition army had already paid a heavy price.

On the side of the Hu cavalry army, the general in golden helmet and golden armor galloped out of the formation again, meeting the cavalry reinforcements galloping on the opposite side. Under the reflection of the remnant sun like blood. His angular face, like a knife and an axe, instead of a trace of joy after a great victory, revealed a deep worry.

"The last general, Hu Zhen, was ordered by General Xu. Come to help! Cavalry reinforcements, a black-armored general rode out and saluted the golden-armored general: "I've seen General Lu!" ”

"General Hu has worked hard!" Lu Bu nodded and said, "If you hadn't flown to help." Our army will inevitably fall into the layers of stalemate of the enemy's superior forces...... This battle not only killed the enemy tenfold, but also dampened the enemy's spirit, which can be said to be a complete victory! ”

"General Lu is polite!" Hu Zhen said happily: "Being able to add glory to General Lu's victory is also the common wish of General Xu and the last general!" ”

He looked at the alliance army that was slowly retreating in the distance, and sneered: "I heard that the enemy army led by Er Yuan has as many as 300,000, and we are only one of ten...... General Lu, as long as you give an order, the last general is willing to rush and kill again! ”

"General Hu!" Lu Bu finally let out a low sigh: "Although you are physically and mentally exhausted from the long-distance attack, and you have made great contributions to this battle, the general still has important things to entrust you...... I hope you are concerned about the overall situation, don't hesitate to work hard! ”

"Please make it clear to the general!" Hu Zhen proudly stood tall and said: "Liangzhou man, I never know what hard work is!" ”

"Okay!" Lu Bu vigorously patted Hu Zhen on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "Ben will only give you three hours to rest and replenish...... Then, immediately return to the army and assist General Xu to hold the defensive line! ”

"What?" Hu Zhen looked at Lu Bu in disbelief: "But General Lu, the last general just came to ...... on the order of General Xu."

"I will be grateful to you and General Xu, because you have done your best to lay an undefeated situation for our army!" Lu Bu said calmly: "It seems that the battle of Shicai has failed to dampen the bones of the enemy, but in fact, it is not, most of the enemy soldiers killed in the battle are the elite soldiers of the alliance army, if they come up and send new soldiers to fight, it is impossible to block the continuous offensive of our army!" ”

"Even though our army is far inferior to the enemy, it is fearless so far!" The gloom in his eyes reappeared: "On the other hand, General Xu's place is in danger...... Nanying's 20,000 elite soldiers, even the elite of our army dare not speak lightly, not to mention that he still has Sun Jian's 25,000 troops to help in the war? Although General Xu wanted to defend to the death with the advantage of the terrain, he could not escape defeat in the end! ”

He shook his head in the face of Hu Zhen's expression of wanting to speak and stopped: "The general is well aware of General Xu's ambition, and he wants to cut off his own wrist and exchange the enemy's arm...... You can tell him that Ben will be enough here, Ben will need it, both wrists! ”

"The Admiral understands!" Hu Zhen let out a long breath, and he bowed deeply to Lu Bu and said, "The last general doesn't have to wait for three hours...... After two hours, return to the teacher immediately! ”

"You have to be careful...... Although I have never fought against Nanying, his undefeated reputation is by no means fortunate! Lu Bu's face was full of solemnity: "When you return to the army, you must not only be prepared for General Xu to be broken, but also beware of him attacking in ambush on your way home!"
