Chapter 885: Inform Yide and retreat quickly
"Set out and take the counties, tonight." The snake spear in Zhang Fei's hand swung forward heavily and shouted.
Five hundred cavalry, coming quickly in the direction of the east gate.
As the cavalry moved forward, the ground trembled slightly, which was the majesty of the cavalry after the attack.
After approaching the east city gate, Zhang Fei could faintly hear the shouting and killing sound coming from the city, and couldn't help but be even more excited, it can be seen that the Zhu family's action in the city has been successful, as long as they can lead the cavalry into the city, they can make the defenders pay a heavy price.
At this thought, Zhang Fei did not hesitate at all, and urged the cavalry under his command to quickly enter the city to support his own men and horses.
At this time, Zhang Fei is also more cautious, after all, this is an attack on the enemy's city, if there are other situations in the city, with the narrowness of the city gate, it is not a simple matter to retreat from the city.
After the cavalry team entered the city, they were slightly stunned when they saw the scene in front, and the cavalry in the rear did not know why, but they continued to enter the city.
But seeing that the original sound of fighting was gone, facing the Qingzhou cavalry were the archers who were waiting for the battle, and the arrows exuded a cold glow, which seemed to be able to tear their bodies at any time.
In war, the role of archers cannot be ignored, especially in the face of cavalry, the role that archers can play is very large.
So many archers, suddenly pointed their bows and arrows at these excited cavalry, so that these cavalry were shocked at the same time, there was more fear, this confrontation, their original raid side, did not expect the situation on the battlefield, it is actually evolving in such a direction, the Xuzhou army for this raid, obviously has been prepared.
In front of the archers, even the cavalry of the Qingzhou Army did not dare to act rashly, and no one dared to be sure that the arrows of these archers would be released in the next moment.
After Zang Ba saw this scene, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, it is indeed more appropriate for the Qingzhou army to attack the counties in this way, if it is not prepared in advance, it is not an easy thing to drive out the Qingzhou army that is attacking the city, and even when the confrontation occurs, their own soldiers will pay more for the war.
But now the situation is different, it is the Xuzhou army that controls the initiative in the war, and even the enemy's cavalry is under the arrows of the archers, as long as these enemies dare to make other moves, the next moment dense arrows will attack them.
The atmosphere suddenly became solemn, the original shouting and killing also stopped, and many generals of the Xuzhou Army looked at the Qingzhou Army with a look full of banter.
In war, cavalry is indeed extremely powerful, but in some cases, the arrows of archers may pose a deadly threat to them.
When facing archers, there is enough caution, which is also the thought of many Qingzhou cavalrymen.
After becoming a cavalryman, they were naturally the pride of the Qingzhou army, but they did not expect that such a situation would occur when they were fighting against the Xuzhou army.
In some cases, if not handled properly, there are even more dangers.
The Xuzhou army has a resounding reputation among the princes, especially in wartime, the Xuzhou army is known for its madness, and the Qingzhou cavalry, at this moment, some are more messy.
If we can win the war, it will be the best, but judging from the current situation, even survival has become a problem, and this is in the county seats.
Cavalry is extremely powerful in war, but when the cavalry charge loses its corresponding effect, the role it can play on the battlefield is weak, especially after attacking the city, the terrain in the city has a lot of restrictions on the cavalry to charge.
Now that the Xuzhou army is obviously prepared in the city, and even waiting for the cavalry of the Qingzhou army to enter the city, is there anything more depressing than this?
It is no secret that the Qingzhou cavalry has a big gap in combat effectiveness compared with the Xuzhou cavalry itself, but it still has a great advantage in the face of the infantry of the Xuzhou army, and such an advantage can help the Qingzhou army quickly open up the situation in the counties.
However, judging from the current situation, it is obviously difficult to achieve greater achievements in attacking the counties.
When the Xuzhou army was arranged in the city, it was impossible to win from this confrontation.
The Xuzhou army has the city as its backing, and when the cavalry of the Qingzhou army suffered heavy losses in the war, it will have a great impact on the subsequent attack of the Qingzhou army.
Just after the cavalry entered the city, Guan Yu led the foot soldiers, and immediately killed the city gate, in Guan Yu's opinion, after the cavalry entered the city, it would definitely be able to bring a lot of shocks to the defenders, and if the foot soldiers were killed into the city at this time, it would definitely play a great role.
But when approaching the city, Guan Yu suddenly felt that something was wrong, because the city was suddenly quiet, it was said that when the cavalry team entered the city, it would definitely be able to set off a bloody storm in the city, and the Xuzhou army, which was caught off guard, would definitely pay a heavy price in the war.
The combat effectiveness of the Qingzhou cavalry is still relatively strong, why is it so quiet after entering the city.
Although there is a certain suspicion in his heart, Guan Yu has no other choice, it is most appropriate to lead the foot soldiers into the city as soon as possible at this time, there is a deep relationship between him and Zhang Fei, if Zhang Fei has other situations in the city, Guan Yu will not be able to forgive himself.
"General Guan, it's not good, there is an ambush in the Xuzhou army in the city, and the cavalry of our army has been ambushed." A cavalryman rode up and shouted.
As soon as the words came out, Guan Yu was shocked, the Xuzhou army actually had an ambush in the city, what is going on, isn't it when attacking the counties, there is a family plan in the city, it is said that in the case of the family strategy, there should not be such a situation.
Could it be that the family in the city united with the Xuzhou Army and deliberately wanted to trap the Qingzhou Army, if this is the case, then Zhang Fei's situation is too dangerous.
"Tell Yide to retreat quickly." Guan Yu shouted.
The herald soldiers rode away, at this time, the city of Zhuxian was in the eyes of the officers and soldiers of the Qingzhou Army, that was the man-eating demon cave, if they could not evacuate the vicinity of the counties as soon as possible, maybe they would have to pay a greater price for the war.
