Chapter 256: Don't miss the opportunity
Hua Xiong was second only to Lu Bu as a general when he was under Dong Zhuo, and he had always led the cavalry for a long time, with the current situation, he naturally would not let the big victory in his hand slip away, and a thousand cavalry rushed after Niu Fu desperately blocked the Xiliang camp, completely defeating the defensive formation that the enemy had just established, and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry broke through the enemy's defense line in one fell swoop, and fought with those foot soldiers! On the plains, the infantry army against the cavalry army, once there is no advantageous position, the formation is scattered and it can only be slaughtered by others, and no one can reverse such a decline!
However, after all, there are 20,000 enemy troops, plus Niu Fu is fighting to the death, if he wants to annihilate them all, it is not possible to do it in a short time, Liu Yi stands on the high ground in the distance, the battle situation is in full view, but his heart is anxious! Of course, what he is anxious about is not the current battle situation, even if Niu Fu is replaced by him, he is powerless to return to the sky, Guo Yan and Zhang Xiu led the army to move forward cautiously, Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao had to block head-on, although they were full of confidence in the second general and his own soldiers, but the sooner the battle is resolved here, he can go to help, at least he can reduce the casualties of his brothers.
Looking at the battle on the battlefield, Liu Yi wanted to rush out several times, but who knew that the centurion was following him like a shadow, making it difficult for him to do his way. This person is also quite straightforward, no matter Liu Yi is soft and hard, he is smiling, but he refuses, he is in a hurry, he untied the saber on his waist and handed it to Liu Yi, saying that the military order is great, and the lord also said that the main general of this battle is General Hua, even so, his words are military orders, and the lord wants to rush and kill, and the villain is cut first, which is better than disobeying the military order.
"You give me a name!" When encountering this kind of subordinate, Liu Yi also lost his temper, of course he could not kill him on the spot, obeying military orders was what he had always emphasized. Since he handed over everything to Huaxiong in this battle, as the lord, he can't break the military regulations.
"The lord, his subordinate surname is Li Caozi Yuanba, the third centurion under General Naihua!"
"Li Yuanba? Liu Yi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and then carefully looked at this person's face like the bottom of a pot, more than eight feet long, with big shoulders and a round waist, but he was quite brave and majestic. In the historical novels of China, the most exaggerated and the most recognized invincible is the first good man of the Sui and Tang dynasties, Zhao Wang Li Yuanba, this person is the brother of Li Shimin, the king of Qin, known as "hating the sky and hating the earth without rings", the raw rib tendons, a pair of eight-edged purple gold hammers in the palm of the hand weigh 800 catties, invincible in the world!
"Lord, our army can win this battle, why should the lord's golden body come to the battle in person!" Li Yuanba looked at Liu Yi a little uncomfortable, and said boldly.
"Oh, how can you tell?" At this time, the battlefield situation is still entangled, and the Niu Auxiliary Army still has the strength to resist, and on the surface, there are still many people! Liu Yi could see the advantages and disadvantages because he had experienced a hundred battles and was especially good at cavalry combat, so his words at this time were quite comparative.
"We followed General Hua, and also fought in the south and the north, such a terrain, my iron cavalry can break more than three times the infantry army, and now this road is not three times as many as our army, and it has lost the formation of the infantry army, how can it resist the cavalry? Although it is entangled in front of him, it is just a dying struggle. When Li Yuanba heard the lord's question, he cautiously said what he thought, which coincided with Liu Yi.
"Well, you are still a little knowledgeable, being a centurion has been wronged, after this battle, I will say to General Hua, come to my personal guard camp!" Liu Yi didn't seem to expect that this seemingly rough man had such a meticulous mind, and the thought of love couldn't help but rise in his heart.
"Thank you, my lord!" Li Yuanba bowed down immediately, and he was also happy in his heart, he was by Liu Yi's side when he entered the guard camp, and he saw that the lord looked quite appreciative, how could he not be moved?
"Okay Yuanba, you leave twenty horsemen, and the rest of the brothers let them kill them, and tell General Hua to do whatever it takes to break the enemy army as soon as possible!" Liu Yi didn't want to waste more than 100 elites by his side, and at this time, he would make a contribution, so he said.
"This..." Although Li Yuanba was in ecstasy, he never forgot his duty, and although the lord's words did not violate General Hua's military orders, he still hesitated.
"Don't do this, that, the enemy army is already like this, if you lose it early, you can reduce the casualties of a few brothers, my Liu Yi blood dragon halberd is in hand, where can I not go in the world? Who can hurt me! Regarding Li Yuanba's hesitation, Liu Yi nodded secretly, but his words were full of arrogance! Now, with his reputation for being invincible, he does have this arrogant capital.
"No, the lord is brave, no one in the world knows! Zhao Long, you take your brothers to rush down and pass on the words of the lord to the general! Li Yuanba heard the words in his heart, the courage of the lord is invincible, if someone can really hurt him, these eighty horses are in vain, so he also decisively ordered! The soldiers next to him had long been itchy and unbearable, and they were aroused by Liu Yi's words, and now when they heard the military order, they all fought bravely to be the first and fought hard towards the place where the two armies were entangled!
Guo Yan looked at the battle situation and was anxious, but Zhao Yun was not at all relaxed in the battle array, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry lived up to its reputation, and it was able to fight with his own Iron Cavalry Battalion to such a point, even if he won the current battle situation, it was the most difficult battle experienced by the Iron Cavalry Battalion since it became an army, and this casualty... However, he couldn't care so much at this time, and continued to rush and kill with all his strength, leading his subordinates to completely crush the enemy's last bit of resistance!
This battle lasted all day, and the intensity was extremely high at the beginning, with his and Yan Gang's physical strength now feeling unsustainable, not to mention ordinary soldiers, both sides, whether cavalry or infantry, were already gritting their teeth, relying on the last will to support.
At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves sounded behind the army, and smoke and dust were billowing up, and a large group of cavalry must have galloped towards them. Hearing this, Guo Yan immediately walked off the high platform in despair, because there would never be so many cavalry in Niu Fu's army, not Niu Fu, it must be Liu Yi's soldiers! Once this cavalry joins the battlefield, I am afraid that it will be difficult for them to escape.
The sound of thousands of horses galloping made both sides in the battle stunned, they would not be as clear as Guo Yan knew, only to see a group of cavalry in the line of sight from far to near, the formation was not neat! The leader of the golden helmet and golden armor, wearing a red robe, the dark clouds under the crotch covered the snow, the blood dragon swallowing the sky in the palm, and the banner behind him was embroidered with a lifelike golden wolf head! This image is familiar to all Liu Yijun's soldiers, and although it is still far away, they immediately recognize it.
"The general is coming, the general is coming! Brothers, kill! I don't know who took the lead in shouting, in Liu Yi's army, the general does not add a surname, it is a specific reference, in the hearts of the soldiers, the general is the name of Liu Yi alone, everyone knows it.
With this shout, Guo Yan's subordinates immediately felt the change in their opponents, and their eyes, which were already a little sloppy, became energetic again, and the blades in their hands seemed to be no longer heavy at this time, and they regained their lightness, even the wounded who fell to the ground and were unable to stand up also tried their best to stand up with the last strength of their bodies, and once again threw themselves into the fierce battle, and for a while the entire Youzhou army was excited.
Liu Yi's invincible image has long taken root in the hearts of the soldiers, this is the prestige accumulated by victory after victory, as long as they see the generals, the soldiers will be greatly boosted, which is also highly recommended by several military divisions and his generals, Liu Yi is not only the lord in the hearts of the soldiers, but also the invincible commander who leads them to gallop on the battlefield, with the general, it is invincible and invincible!
In the face of Liu Yijun's sudden outburst of monstrous war intent, the exhausted Guo Yan's army finally collapsed, and the battlefield situation changed from Shang Ke support to defeat in an instant.
The cavalry that followed Liu Yi was only five thousand, and they were all full of dust, and they had just fought for a few hours to defeat Niu Fu, and even the battlefield was too late to clean up and rushed here without horsepower, many soldiers fell behind on the way, and the horses under the crotch were also tired a lot, but they finally caught up, and their arrival became the last straw that crushed the camel, and when they rushed to the front, they found that they didn't need to shoot, and the enemy began to scatter and flee!
"Brothers, catch up with me and capture Guo Yan alive!" Liu Yi shouted loudly at this time, and everyone heard it, and he was the first to go up again, looking at the corpses of soldiers on both sides all over the battlefield, with the situation of the enemy army being defeated like a mountain in front of him, how could he let this Guo Yan leave easily? It is appropriate to chase the poor bravely!
