Hu Weika struck angrily, Lu Bu showed disdain at the corner of his eyes, and lightly knocked the belly of the red rabbit horse under his feet, the red rabbit horse jumped lightly, avoiding Hu Weika's attack, and Lu Bu's halberd swept towards Hu Weika's chest. Huvica's move was old, and he didn't have time to retract his weapon to block it, and the halberd smashed into his chest, and Huvica screamed and flew backwards in the air.

Lu Bu didn't lift his eyelids, knowing that his blow was enough to make the enemy general lose his combat effectiveness, he swung his halberd and killed in the crowd of Guishan's soldiers. Huvica sat on the ground, his face flushed, and he opened his mouth to spew out a bloody arrow, and he fell backwards. The soldiers on the left and right hurriedly dismounted and helped Hu Weika up, only to see that Hu Weika had a lot of gas and little air intake, and he couldn't see that he could do it.

20,000 Guishan cavalry, at this time there were less than 5,000 people left, Lu Bu let out a strange scream, all the fields heard it, Li Su and Cao Xing heard it, and knew that this was the order of the general attack, and each led the cavalry to meet the enemy in short arms.

When Zhang Liao arrived, the battle was nearing the end, and when he saw that there were still Guishan cavalry resisting stubbornly, he shouted loudly, and 20,000 fresh troops entered the battle circle. The Guishan heavy cavalry had lost its advantage and soon collapsed after the addition of Zhang Liao's troops.

Douglas looked at the soldiers who had escaped back to Maracanda City with a gloomy face, and had to reassess the combat effectiveness of the Han army, and sent messengers to Mulu City, Lanshi City, and Flousha respectively, hoping that reinforcements would arrive as soon as possible; The city shrank its troops, encouraged the young and strong in the city, and prepared to rely on the fortified city to fight to the death with the Han army.

Guo Jiazhong's army came to the outside of Maracanda City, and saw that the camp had already been erected, and said to Zhang Liao and Lu Bu with a smile: "The two generals have won the victory, and they have set up a camp in their busy schedules, and they have made great contributions to preparing for our army's attack on Maracanda." ”

Lu Bu said with a grin: "I also said how great the Guishan heavy cavalry is, and the combat power is nothing more than that. ”

Guo Jia said: "The King of Kushan has no time to deal with the Sassanid Dynasty in the West, and if he mobilizes heavy troops and fights with my army, the victory or defeat should be between five and five. Feng Xianxiang is the first brave general of the Han Dynasty, and it is rare to meet opponents, and the defeat of the enemy army is also expected. ”

Lu Bu laughed, "I don't know when the adults will attack the city, Bu Bu is not talented, I am willing to be the first." ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "There is no hurry to attack the city, and wait for Zilong and Yuan Rang to send news." Our army can rest for a day and besiege the eastern, northern, and southern gates of the enemy's city. ”

Vesudeva I was taken aback when he received news from Douglas. The soldiers and horses of the Sassanid Empire are preparing to attack the two cities of Mulu and Gaofu, and the Eastern Han army is coming to the city, and the Kushan Empire is facing attacks from both sides, how to deal with this?

Sural, the prime minister of Zuo, said: "Your Majesty the Great Emperor, the land and army of the Han Dynasty are far higher than those of the Sassanid Dynasty, and the Sassanid King Ardashiwen is still unstable in his country, and the former subordinates of the former Anxi Empire are planning to overthrow the rule of Ardashivan. Your Majesty the Emperor, why don't you let someone carry a lot of money and rest in peace? Let them stir up a storm in the Sassanid country, so that Ardashivan will not be able to take care of himself, and he will inevitably withdraw the soldiers and horses of the two cities of Mulu and Lan, and His Majesty can turn around and dispatch men and horses to fight against the Han army. ”

Vesudeva I closed his eyes, raised his head and thought for a long time and said: "Prime Minister Zuo is reasonable, but it will take time to rest in peace, and the Han army is currently surrounding Marakanda, the situation is critical, how to rescue it?" ”

Seeing that the left prime minister's opinion was adopted by the emperor, the right prime minister did not dare to lag behind, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty the emperor, Malakanda is the eastern barrier of the empire, and if the Han army wants to occupy it, the gate of the empire will be opened." Why didn't His Majesty order the defenders of Flower Thorn Zimo and Lan City to rush to the rescue; Although Mulu City faced the Sassanid army, if there was internal unrest, the army would inevitably withdraw, and Mulu City could send some troops and horses to cross the Amu Darya River to aid Malakanda. ”

Vesudeva I had a plan in his heart at this time, and said loudly: "Linghua Thorn Zimo and Lan City each send 30,000 troops to aid Marakanda; If the enemy army outside Mulu City retreats, immediately raise troops to the east and cooperate with General Douglas. The capital sent an army of 80,000 to Gaofu to force Sassanid to withdraw, and as soon as the enemy army retreated, he immediately sent troops to pass through Lan City to rescue Douglas. ”

As soon as Vesudeva I's words came out, his subordinates immediately conveyed the emperor's order, and the people and horses in the northern part of Kushan began to move.

Zhao Yun and Xiahoudun came to the banks of the Amu Darya River respectively, hid the men and horses in the woods by the river, sent scouts, disguised as Kushans, and inquired about the situation.

Deng Ai was on the side of the main road west of Maracanda, and he also hid the men and horses, and when he saw the messengers in twos and threes, the men and horses did not move, waiting for the opportunity.

Zhu Falan, the defender of the Lan Clan, received news from Douglas and hurriedly gathered his troops and horses to prepare to gallop to the aid of Maracanda. Zhu Falan had a good personal relationship with Douglas, and formed an iron triangle with the three of Mophi, the defender of Mulu City, to ensure the stability of the northern Kushan Empire.

Zhu Falan led 20,000 horses to the Amu Darya River, crossed the river along the stone bridge, the army passed more than half, the drums shook the sky, a team of Han soldiers killed over, for the Han generals black robes and black armor, one eye with a hood, holding an iron spear high, roaring.

Zhu Falan was shocked, and urgently ordered his subordinates to set up a formation, the formation had not yet been formed, Xiahoudun's cavalry had already collided with him, 30,000 light horsemen, crossbows, and javelins, and defeated the Kushan soldiers who crossed the Amu Darya River, and the soldiers behind saw that they were not headed, shouted, jumped into the river, and swam desperately to the opposite bank. The soldiers on the stone bridge were huddled together, Xiahoudun took the lead, and the cavalry formed a cone and rushed over.

Zhu Falan was sweating in a hurry, when did the Han army come to the Amu Darya? I didn't even know that I was caught off guard by the other party this time, and I wanted to organize people, and the soldiers who retreated in front of me rushed over and scattered their own formation. Zhu Flange saw that the Han army had come to him, and the huge impact of the cavalry could not be stopped by the cavalry that had not yet moved, so he had no choice but to give the order to retreat.

Who is Xiahoudun? Seeing that the other party was defeated, it was a good time to beat the water dogs, and with 20,000 people, he chased after Zhu Flange's footprints.

Xiahoudun's side was victorious, but Zhao Yun's side did not move at all, but fortunately, Zhao Yun calmed down and ordered the men and horses to continue to hide. After five days of this, the scout came to report: General, Lan City has dispatched 10,000 horses and is coming to the Amu Darya.

The Sassanid army, which was attached to the outside of the city, heard that Vesudeva I had sent 80,000 troops to help, and hurriedly withdrew. The leader of the 80,000-strong army was the emperor's younger brother Bo Gu, who saw Sasanian's soldiers and horses retreating, informed the high attached general, and led the men and horses straight to Lan City.

Zhu Falan fled back to Lan's City, frightened, the offensive of the Han army was too sharp, the soldiers of Guishan were known as the first strong army, in the face of the Han army, how could they only be beaten? 20,000 people went out of the city, and less than 3,000 returned, and the intestines of Zhu Flange who regretted it were all blue.

Mo Fei couldn't help it, the Sassanid army outside the city had just withdrawn, and there were only 40,000 soldiers in Mulu City, and he didn't know if the Sassanid people would make a comeback, so he had to order his generals to take 10,000 horses to aid Malakanda.

After the anointing came to the Amu Darya, thinking that the Han army was far away in Marakanda, and did not explore, along the wooden bridge on the river, quickly advanced to the front, and was on the way, a trumpet sounded, and 30,000 Han troops wrapped dumplings with the men and horses who had been anointed.

Po Gu came to Lan City, and Zhu Falan told him about the situation. Bo Gu was shocked and said hurriedly: "How can the Han army set up an ambush by the Amu Darya? ”

Zhu Flange said, you ask me, who do I ask? But in the face of the younger brother of Vesudeva I, he still said respectfully: "I have always heard that the Han people are extremely cunning, and the Han Kingdom's "Art of War" has never been matched by Guishuang, and the prince still has to deal with it carefully." ”

Po Gu said: "The Han army went deep into our country, and there were no reinforcements after that, and there were only 30,000 horses, what kind of climate did it become? General Zhu Falan, you should guard the Lan City carefully, wait for me to cross the Amu Darya River, and eat this Han army. ”

What can Zhu Flange say, he is the emperor's younger brother, and now he is full of confidence, he can't break the gong in the back, so he said along the words of Bogu: "I wish the prince a victory and success." ”

The 10,000 people who had been anointed basically did not make waves, and they were also overturned by Zhao Yun with one shot, and almost all of them perished. Zhao Yun saw that there were so many people coming to Mulu City, and he was concerned about Xiahoudun, leaving 10,000 horses, and ordered the deputy general He Fei to take 20,000 people and rush to join Xiahoudun.
