Chapter 446: Young Hero

Deng Ai rushed into the formation several times, but was repelled by the opponent's generals, but after such a long time of testing, Deng Ai finally determined that the power of the opponent's large array should end here, because Guo Huai in the high place and Pang Tong, the military advisor outside the formation, seemed to have not moved for a long time. Whether the big array can be broken depends on the soldiers of both sides who are trapped in the formation. Deng Ayton felt refreshed.

So he ordered the repeater behind him to fire arrows in turn. The crossbowmen were in a row of three or five, and as they continued to pull the bowstring, the arrows shot towards the opponent's enemy generals like eyes, and it didn't take much effort for several generals in the Wei army to be shot off their horses.

As the reinforcement generals were shot down, the opponent's formation was suddenly full of flaws, Deng Ai seized the opportunity and rushed into the formation, and his first-hand pistol technique made the furnace perfect and superb, and several close Wei generals had died of anger before they could see it clearly.

"Quick...... Quickly protect the main banner and kill the white horse general. was strongly stirred by Deng Ai, and Guo Huai finally couldn't sit still. originally thought that Huang Zhong and Han Dang should be the bravest generals in the Han army yesterday, but they didn't expect such a young general who had never seen it to come out today and rush his proverbs to the ground.

Then several Wei generals rushed towards Deng Ai, Deng Ai's face remained unchanged, as always, one move to defeat the enemy, the gentian gun in his hand kept licking the enemy's blood, so that Deng Ai himself also had a murderous aura of choosing people to eat. Xu Sheng on the side was also secretly surprised, under the infection of Deng Ai, he finally recovered his former murderous spirit, in his opinion, Deng Ai's courage was inferior to Zhou Tai back then! With such a general by his side, his sense of security has doubled, and if he doesn't go all out to break the formation at this time, it will really be a drag.

However, at a moment, several Wei generals had fallen beside Deng Ai, and the death was tragic, which made people fearful. Deng Ai Zhiyong was something they didn't expect, before this they had only heard of Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, and Zhang Ren's generation, Zhang Ren was said to have gone to Tongguan, and Wei Yan was the commander of the three armies before he arrived. Huang Zhong suffered a big loss yesterday...... Deng Ai did give them an accident, and many people did it inexplicably.

The deputy generals and partial generals of the Wei army saw that they were invincible, and hurriedly asked people to transfer the banner of the array, as long as the banner was still there, the eye of the array would not be broken. Deng Aiyan can not think about this, to break the formation of the eye has to break their banner first, Deng Ai's crotch under the white horse rushed up like a whirlwind, the surrounding generals who protect the banner after seeing Deng Ai's power, how dare to move forward, in panic to avoid it, just give Deng Ai a way.

With such a good opportunity, how could Deng Ai just pass, only to see the spear in his hand, galloping all the way, everywhere he went, he was injured when he held it, and his reaction was a little slow. Several personal guard cavalrymen also followed Deng Ai all the way, and after a while, they came to the side of the banner. Deng Ai then reined in his horse and looked around, and the enemy was either dead or wounded. So he calmly took out a big knife from his back, and grabbed the handle of the knife with both hands and slashed towards the banner.

Click, click...... A sound shook the surrounding Wei soldiers like thunder! A moment later, the banner fell! The flag-holding officers everywhere in the formation looked at the formation with a stunned look in their eyes, and the flag in their hands was dragged like this, not knowing what to do next.

Then more soldiers looked at the array, Wei Jun was of course at a loss, his face was panicked, as if he was a group of children who couldn't find their way home, and didn't know what to do next.

After a short silence, Xu Sheng and the others broke out with a loud bang, the joy and excitement in the sound greatly boosted their morale, and their self-confidence swelled rapidly.

The banner at the eye of the formation was cut off, which was destined to be exhausted at this moment and the Wei army's formation was declared broken. The next thing is to separate and fight according to their abilities, the Wei army originally expected the formation to be superior and entangled with the enemy, but suddenly lost the protection of the formation, and naturally it was not as strong as the Han army's combat effectiveness.

Guo Huai stood on the high platform with a pale face, and the banner commanding the army in his hand had long been thrown away, but his face was full of unwillingness and anger. Since the formation is put out, there is the consciousness that the formation has been broken, but Guo Huai never thought that this young general in the local army today would play cards twice out of common sense. Especially the broken formation eye, it is simply fatal! I think that in the Wei army, I am afraid that only Cao Zhang, who led the troops back to Yecheng, can resist it, but unfortunately he is not there! It is impossible for him to rush into the battle in person to defeat the enemy, so he watched Deng Ai lead people to cut down the banner.

"General, it's better to withdraw first for the sake of today." Seeing that the entire large array was forced, the deputy general beside Guo Huai hurriedly reminded that at this moment, he didn't care what Guo Huai's mood was, and he didn't care whether Guo Huai would vent the anger in his heart on him, but he knew that if he didn't leave at this time, the enemy army on the opposite side would attack, and he wouldn't be able to leave even if he wanted to.

The formation was broken, the formation was like a building about to fall completely, the Yuan army soldiers and horses everywhere in the formation could not take care of each other, there was no unified order, there was no accurate deployment, and in the face of the morale of the Han army and horses, they could only be passively bound. Originally, it was a situation of outflanking and flanking, but it instantly became a flanking attack on both sides of Huang Zhong and Han Dang, and Deng Ai and Xu Sheng blossomed in the center! But it was bitter for the Wei army at the forefront of the formation. After Deng Ai cut the banner, he gathered the soldiers to turn around and attack the position where his battalion was located.

And Huang Zhong and Han Dang also seized the opportunity to advance and suppress the two-winged sharp knives, and the formation completely lost its power, and instantly turned into a plate of loose sand, constantly surrounded and suppressed by the Han army's soldiers and horses, and rushed to kill.

"Charge the whole army!" At this time, Pang Tong, who was outside the formation, was no longer idle, and the wine gourd was held high, shouting at the soldiers behind him! The enemy formation has been broken and has not yet fought, and there are still 5,000 people on their own side who have not joined the battle at this time, and these people will join forces with Deng Ai and others to deal a fatal blow to the enemy!

"Kill!" Suddenly, drums beat loudly outside the formation, and thousands of people rushed towards the Wei army like a tide. The Wei soldiers who were fighting separately in the formation found that the enemy still had no one to fight, and this time it was bitter for those Wei soldiers who were at the forefront of the formation, and a Deng Ai had already made them miserable, and now Pang Tong ordered the whole army to charge, and in an instant they were surrounded by the Han army on all sides!

"General, this place is not suitable for a long time! Evacuate! Although Guo Huai was reluctant, the deputy general couldn't care about it at this time, and he glanced at the soldiers beside him and Guo Huai retreated to the rear.

"Coward! Coward! Let me go! Guo Huai was so angry that the formation was forced, he could only desperately block the enemy's attack, and maybe there was still a glimmer of hope to gather the soldiers and the Han army to resist in front of the formation, but if he withdrew, the three armies would collapse instantly without a commander.

It's just that the situation is moving faster than he expected. The Han army was already holding its breath when it failed to break the formation yesterday, especially the two veterans Huang Zhong and Han Dang, who lost face and almost ruined their reputation in the hands of Guo Huai, a junior. So seeing that Deng Ai succeeded, he also launched a ruthless attack. The soldiers of the Han army worked together, but on the other hand, the Wei army had indeed relied on the advantage of the formation, and there was no psychological preparation for the best decisive battle.

The formation collapsed in an instant, and the originally mutated crane wing array was cut apart, and the soldiers panicked, and their combat effectiveness was sharply reduced. The two armies fought in front of the battle, and the slightest hesitation was the loss of the fighter.

Defeat was inevitable, as soon as Guo Huai and the others retreated to the camp, Huang Zhong led his troops to kill! He was holding his stomach, and naturally Xiangyang captured Guo Huai alive to relieve his hatred, Guo Huai didn't care about face at this time, and fled in the direction of Chang'an with the remnants of the defeated army.

"Haha, it's really a hero out of a boy!" After cleaning up the battlefield, Huang Zhong returned to the camp and patted Deng Ai's shoulder and praised him for a while.

Deng Ai replied shyly with a red face: "Luck, luck." If it weren't for the fact that General Huang Lao and General Han tried the formation yesterday, coupled with the clever calculation of the military division, Ai would definitely not have been lucky enough to get such a feat. ”

Seeing Deng Ai so humble, everyone thought a little highest, especially Huang Zhong and Pang Tong. I thought it was no wonder that the lord spoke so highly of the little guy, and now it seems that he does have something extraordinary. Not to mention anything else, the act of cutting the flag at him, I can't find a few such people today, but fortunately, such a tiger will be his own.

Guo Huai was repulsed, and Huang Zhong did not set off immediately that night, but carefully cleaned up the battlefield and then strengthened the camp in place and waited for Wei Yan's arrival. The 15,000 men brought by Huang Zhong suffered losses of more than 5,000 after two days of hard fighting, and it was obviously unrealistic to rely on this bit of troops and horses to break through Chang'an.

Wei Yan, who was in the rear, learned that Huang Zhong and others in the front had successfully repelled Guo Huai, who came to intercept, and immediately adjusted the marching route, ordering his subordinates to lead 3,000 troops all the way to reinforce Tongguan, and 5,000 troops all the way to Wuguan. Tongguan is the only way to pass through the Central Plains, and Wuguan is the main road connecting Wancheng and Chang'an. Strangling these two passes, Wei Yan can close the door and fight the dogs, and gradually wipe out the Wei army in Guanzhong, the entire Yongzhou and Liangzhou is just around the corner!

Cao Zhen, who was stationed in Chang'an, was also surprised to see the defeated Guo Huai, Guo Huai brought 15,000 people, and only 6,000 people returned to Chang'an, you must know that Huang Zhong was only 15,000 people, could it be that the Han army was so strong in combat. And now Chang'an is in a predicament, Cao Zhang led the departure without authorization, Wei Yan seized Tongguan with lightning speed, and Cao Zhen in Guanzhong must face Wei Yan independently!

Cao Zhen and Wei Yan are also old acquaintances, Cao Cao's first southern expedition, Cao Zhen once participated in the war. He had seen the defense capability of Liu Cong's army, but he didn't expect that time would pass, and the generals in the Wei army would gradually grow old, while the Han army would be talented people from all over the world. That formation-breaking young general didn't even know Guo Huai's name!

Unlike Cao Zhen's panic, Liu Cong, who was far away in Xiangyang, learned that Zhang Ren had seized Tongguan again, and immediately asked Guan Yu to send troops to attack Wancheng, and Gan Ning led the army to attack Hefei, the purpose was self-evident, that is, to contain Wancheng Xu Huang could not reinforce Chang'an, and at the same time cut off a key road for the reinforcement of the Wei army in the Central Plains. At the same time, the Wei army did not dare to go all out to reinforce Guanzhong. After all, Gan Ning's prestige in the Jiangdong Expedition was far and wide, so that the Wei State did not dare to take it lightly.
