Chapter 232: The Tiger Ben Camp is in ambush
"Your name is Bai Qi?" Fan Lihua asked.
"Yes."
"I know you. You graduated from the Military Academy and tied for first place with Liang Hongyu, right? ”
"Yes."
Fan Lihua smiled and said, "Very good, I promised to save General Luo, do you have a winning strategy?" ”
"Yes." Bai Qi said: "We are rushing to break through, Xu Huang will send iron cavalry to chase and kill, please lead the general to ambush the dangerous places on both sides of the official road, and hit the enemy." General Hou and I rushed to the Huai River with light cavalry and killed Xu Huang by surprise. ”
"Okay, just do as you say."
Fan Lihua agreed, and the light cavalry among the generals was handed over to Bai Qi and Hou Cheng.
At this time, on the west bank of the Huai River, Luo Cheng had no escape, no way to escape, and fought to the death with more than 20,000 tiger camps under Cao Hong. Surrounded by Xu Huang's tens of thousands of troops, the surrounding water is impassable.
"Congratulations to the general, all the troops of Luo Cheng are destroyed." On the mountain pass, Xun Yu arched his hand.
"Mr. Gongda, don't you know that Luo Cheng's army has fled, where did it come from?" Xu Huang sighed.
"Hahaha... The general's words were incorrect. Since the first year of Jian'an, we have fought against Lu Bu many times, how could we have had such a big victory? Do you know who Luo Cheng is, he is Lu Bu's righteous brother, he has the courage of ten thousand people, if the general kills him, it will be a miracle. Besides, Cao Hong had already led a battalion of 40,000 tigers to chase and kill the enemy troops who broke through the siege, and it was difficult for the enemy to escape without war horses. ”
"Yes, that's a great achievement." Xu Huang also smiled. I think that over the years, Cao Ren has been defeated repeatedly, and even Cao Cao personally took action, but he failed to gain the upper hand. And now, if he can capture Luo Cheng, he has done something that no one can do.
Thundered...
At this moment, the sound of heavy horses' hooves came from the sky, and the black pressure could not be seen.
Xu Huang and Xun Yu couldn't help but be extremely shocked.
"The enemy's cavalry is on the west bank of the Huai River, how..." Xu Huang's eyes widened.
Xun You exclaimed: "No, this is not Luo Cheng's soldiers and horses, it seems to be the Xuzhou Army!" ”
"How can you tell, sir?"
Xun You said: "The soldiers and horses from Yangzhou are all light black armor, and although the Xuzhou army is also black, it is inky black, and it is mostly used to capture us, and then in order to distinguish it, a few white lines are drawn on the armor, and the general can find it if you look closely." ”
"Sure enough!"
Xu Huang took a deep breath, looked at the several generals beside him, and ordered: "You speed up the left and right battalions to intercept this cavalry." ”
"No."
"Wait..." Xun You said: "The enemy's cavalry is too fast, if you transfer troops to intercept it, I'm afraid it's too late, it's better to let them in, and then plug the gap and eat them." ”
"Okay, just according to Mr.'s words."
Xu Huang agreed to Xun You's plan without thinking about it and sent someone to pass the order.
Bai Qi and Hou Cheng's 10,000 light cavalry entered the encirclement.
The left and right battalions of soldiers and horses quickly plugged the gap.
"Kill...!"
On the west bank of the Huai River, the roar shook the sky.
Luo Cheng held a bright silver spear and sat down on the yellow horse, covered in blood, fighting frantically. There were no companions around him, and all the five thousand light horsemen were shattered, and even he was not lightly injured.
If he fights alone, he can fight against Guan Zhang, but in the face of tens of thousands of well-trained iron horsemen, he is helpless.
He also knew that he was in a catastrophe, so he put life and death out of the way.
After Bai Qi and Hou Cheng arrived at the battlefield, they easily found Luo Cheng.
"Why are you back again?" After Luo Cheng found Bai Qi and Hou Cheng, he asked in surprise.
"General Luo doesn't have to worry, our reinforcements have arrived, hurry up and kill them with us!" Although Bai Qi is young, he is also brave and abnormal, holding a sky-breaking halberd, stabbing left and right, no one can beat him.
"Okay."
Hou Chenggan was a pioneer and fought his way out.
Tens of thousands of light horsemen galloped in the direction of Tanxian.
Xu Huang and Xun You stood on the mountain pass, watching the enemy's cavalry getting closer and closer to the encirclement, and the two battalions on the left and right were desperately intercepting!
"The one with the iron halberd, but Li Yuanba?" Xu Huang pointed to Bai Qi, who was killing frantically on the battlefield. height and age are similar to Li Yuanba.
"It's not. If it was Li Yuanba, he would have broken through a long time ago. Xun Yu said.
Xu Huang looked carefully, and also found that Bai Qi and Li Yuanba were different. The former uses an iron halberd, and the latter uses a golden hammer. Martial arts are poor, and Li Yuanba is a lot.
Time is ticking by...
The 10,000 light cavalry brought by Bai Qi and Hou Cheng never broke through the encirclement and were intercepted by Xu Huang's infantry. After that, they were chased by more than 20,000 tiger battalions, and they were flanked back and forth, resulting in heavy casualties.
Looking at the situation on the battlefield, Bai Qi, Luo Cheng, and Hou Cheng are about to be defeated.
Xu Huang and Xun You were also completely relieved.
But at the most critical moment of destroying the enemy, Xu Huang received a news that the 40,000 tiger battalion sent out before had been ambushed by Fan Lihua and was besieged in Qiyang Valley, thirty miles away, eager for reinforcements.
"Ahh Fan Lihua! ”
Xu Huang was shocked at first, then roared angrily, and discussed with Xun You to transfer the 20,000 iron horsemen besieging Bai Qi and Luo Cheng to support.
Without the iron cavalry of the Tiger Battalion in mobile combat, the pressure on Luo Cheng, Bai Qi, and Hou Cheng was greatly reduced, and after several efforts, they finally broke out of the encirclement and moved north.
"Infuriating! Exasperating! ”
Xu Huang thumped his chest and said angrily: "We finally surrounded Luo Cheng, but let him escape again." How to explain to the prime minister? ”
"The general doesn't have to mind, although Luo Cheng fled, he suffered heavy losses. And Fan Lihua divided his troops to rescue, and Xiapi County was bound to be empty. According to the time, General Cao Ren's soldiers and horses have already arrived in Xiapi County, and Fan Lihua and Luo Cheng will be wiped out by us after all. ”
Hearing Xun You's analysis, Xu Huang breathed a sigh of relief.
"The prime minister ordered us to capture the East China Sea and Jian'an, when is the general going to go?" Xun Yu asked.
From a topographical point of view, only by controlling Donghai County and Jian'an County can we completely cut off the connection between Xuzhou and Yangzhou, and prevent Yangzhou's soldiers and horses from galloping to aid Luo Cheng and Fan Lihua.
Xu Huang calmed down his mood and said, "After Cao Hong returns, he will lead the army to capture Tan County. Tan County is the seat of Donghai County and the second largest town in Xuzhou, guarding the two official roads leading to Xiapi, as long as the town is defended, it can prevent the enemy from reinforcing it. After that, wait for the opportunity to capture Jian'an. ”
"That's very good."
After Bai Qi and Luo Cheng broke through, they joined Fan Lihua's army.
"General Fan, how is the war?" Luo Cheng was covered in injuries, his lips were white, and it was a little difficult to speak.
Fan Lihua looked at the battlefield strewn with corpses, and sighed: "It's a pity that the enemy's iron cavalry rushed too fast and was not completely destroyed. ”
"Ahem..." Luo Cheng clutched his chest.
"The general is wounded?"
"A little injury, it's not in the way."
Fan Lihua glared and found that Luo Cheng's lower abdomen had two openings, and although the blood had coagulated, it still bled from time to time. Fan Lihua hurriedly said: "What kind of injury are you..." ”
