Under the effect of inertia, the entire cavalry team was like the scene of a car accident, and it didn't have time to operate at all, so it crashed into it one after another.

Some hit their teammates' butts directly and sent them to the guillotine;

Although some dodged their teammates, they rushed directly to the four hundred halberds, burying their own lives.

In an instant, the scene was both chaotic and bloody, and the voices of Ma Xiaoren were endless.

However, in the blink of an eye, most of the hundred cavalry were stabbed by the halberd, and the remaining half could only flee in the wilderness.

The cavalry tactics of the Youzhou Army ended in failure again.

……

Previously, when the infantry team was charging into battle, the Youzhou army lost 200 combat strength;

At this moment, in the face of the "hedgehog" array put forward by Huaxing, the hundred cavalry was basically scrapped.

Added together, in less than a stick of incense, the Youzhou army had already lost more than 300 people, but the Huaxing army on the opposite side was not injured.

Seeing such a result, even Guan Yu, who had a calm temperament, couldn't sit still, and his face gradually became ugly.

"Damn the Chinese child! Actually used a halberd array to injure my cavalry? Alas! If I knew this, I should have brought more cavalry. If he had five hundred iron horsemen, how could he be able to stop it with a few halberds? ”

What Guan Yu said was true, if there were more cavalry and rushed from different directions, only a few hundred halberds would definitely not be able to stop it.

However, how could Gongsun Zhan, who was at war with Yuan Shao, send 500 cavalry to Guan Yu for the little emperor's iron ore?

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, military horses were quite valuable.

The cheapest civilian horses cost about 6 or 7 thousand yuan.

And the price of military horses used to fight wars is even more than double this.

If you can rely on a good bloodline, you can even fry a horse for more than 100,000 yuan.

But these are not the most expensive, as early as the time of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty (about 181), when he requisitioned horses, due to the obstruction of local wealthy families, the price of a horse could be as high as 2 million!

If it is converted into silver taels, it is two thousand taels of silver for a horse, which is almost the price of half of the purple smoke building.

Although this price is a "rogue price" belonging to the pit emperor, it also reflects the scarcity of horses during the Han Dynasty.

So not to mention five hundred cavalry, Gongsun Zhan can allocate one hundred cavalry to Guan Yu this time, which is already very good.

"Second brother, don't say it's useless. The Lord is just fighting with that thief, and even if there are five hundred cavalry idle, it is impossible to send them to us. Let's talk about something practical, how should we deal with it now? ”

Seeing that the second brother's cavalry charge also failed, the anxiety in Zhang Fei's eyes became more and more intense.

Of course, Guan Yu also understood that what Zhang Fei said was true, and it didn't take long to hear him sigh and say:

"Alas! Our infantry, archers, and cavalry tried, but we still couldn't break through the defenses. With the remaining troops, it won't be easy to win......"

Listening to the second brother's tone with a bit of admitting defeat, Zhang Fei, who never admitted his intimidation, immediately quit, picked up the guy in his hand, and said with a disapprehensive face:

"Second brother, how can you extinguish your prestige and increase the popularity of others? Hmph, I don't believe in this evil! This time, I personally led the troops, and I had to poke a hole in this iron bucket array for him! ”

After speaking, Zhang Fei pulled up the reins and planned to rush towards the enemy, but the next second he was stopped by Guan Yu reaching out:

"Third brother, now that our army's strength is not superior, and the formation is restrained by the other party, you rush over now, not only will you not be able to break the formation, but it will also bring us greater damage, don't be reckless!"

"So, what about that? You can't just throw in the towel, can you? I, Zhang Yide, will not bow my head to the child surnamed Hua if I die! Zhang Fei said with a stubborn face.

"Third brother, although I said that it is not easy to win, I didn't say that we will definitely lose!"

Speaking of this, I heard Guan Yu's voice turn, and a mysterious smile crossed his face:

"Have you forgotten that we still have a trick that is useless?"

"Backhand?"

Hearing this, Zhang Fei was stunned for a moment. After about four or five seconds, he said softly:

"Oh, the second brother refers to the ambush soldiers hiding behind the mountain?"

"That's right!"

Guan Yu nodded and replied:

"Since the situation is unfavorable to our army, then we don't need to show mercy to our subordinates, it's time for them to dispatch!"

Although the use of ambush soldiers will leave a tongue for the other party, in order to avenge the eldest brother, Zhang Fei didn't say anything more at this juncture, nodded and followed Guan Yu all the way to the west.

……

When the enemy cavalry retreated, Hua Xing was not in a hurry to change the formation, but stood in place and observed the other party, wanting to see what tricks Guan and Zhang could use.

But after waiting for two or three minutes, the enemy not only did not attack, but also heard a bell ringing, and quickly moved to the northwest, giving the impression that it was about to retreat.

Seeing this scene, Huaxing frowned on the spot, his eyes full of confusion.

Because in Huaxing's cognition, Guan and Zhang are not the kind of masters who will easily admit defeat, and if they don't fight to the last soldier, they will not choose to withdraw their troops, which is very strange.

In addition, Huaxing is the brother and enemy of Guan and Zhang, and now that he is finally willing to go out of the city to fight, how can the other party let him go so easily?

Therefore, Huaxing is full of doubts and incomprehension about the retreat of the enemy army at this moment.

But when Hua Xing carefully observed the movements of the enemy army for a while, and found that their target was the hill on the west side, he quickly realized something, and a bright color flashed in his eyes.

Immediately after, I saw him raise the red flag in his hand, adjusted the formation back to the original shield outside the halberd mode, and ordered the soldiers to move forward cautiously, chasing in the direction of the enemy's retreat......

The speed of the Youzhou army's retreat was not very fast, and after about five minutes, the Huaxing army caught up with the other party and came to the vicinity of the hill on the west side.

But as soon as he arrived at the bottom of the mountain, he saw that the Youzhou army, which was pretending to retreat, suddenly stopped its pace.

Now that the other party has chased here, there is no need for Guan Yu to continue playing, but riding a high-headed horse and turning back to the front of the formation, shouting at Hua Xing behind him with a smug face:

"The thief surnamed Hua, you dare to chase here, it's really brainless! Do you really think I'm afraid of you? Hahaha! Today is your death, and I will use your head to pay tribute to my eldest brother's spirit in heaven! ”

After saying this, I saw the flag-bearers beside Guan Yuming dancing the Phnom Penh flag.

However, a few soldiers wearing white military uniforms appeared on the top of the hill on the west side.

Under the leadership of a white-helmeted general, these thousand soldiers rushed down the mountain while shouting, threatening to swallow the Huaxing army in one fell swoop.

At the same time as the ambush attacked, Guan and Zhang were not idle, and the two rushed towards the enemy with 600 soldiers behind them, launching a new round of attacks on the Huaxing army.
