Chapter 1036: The Power of the Crossbowmen (Subscription Requested)

Yuan Shang had no idea after getting the news, and he seemed very panicked, if there was one person in this world besides Yuan Shao who made him afraid, it was Lu Bu, when Lu Bu flooded the Yin City, leaving a big shadow in Yuan Shang's heart, if it was possible, he didn't want to encounter Lu Bu's army again.

The alliance of the princes attacked Huguan, which made Yuan Shang breathe a sigh of relief, he didn't think that Lu Bu would be able to get out of this disaster, in fact, the officials of other states and counties also thought the same, otherwise Ma Teng would not have turned to attack Longguan after cooperating with Lu Bu, if it weren't for Han Sui's backlash, he would have been in Chang'an City at this time.

The judge said: "The third prince doesn't need to worry, the reason why Chen Zhi was able to connect the three cities is because the troops in the three cities are empty, and most of the soldiers are gathered in Lunu, and Guo Yuan, the general of Lunu, is a famous general in Jizhou, so it is naturally not a problem to defend Lunu." ”

"Don't forget, there are still thieves in Julu County who are making trouble, at the beginning, the judge did not listen to the words of his own official and advocated attacking Julu, and now there are 8,000 troops involved in Julu County." Guo Ru's voice was a little cold.

The judge's face turned slightly red, he didn't expect the thief in Zhang Yan's hand to be so strong, relying on the giant deer as the foundation, he actually started a confrontation with the Jizhou army, which had bed crossbows and thunderbolts, and failed to break the giant deer in a short time.

"Lord Guo, the giant deer is just a few thieves, as the so-called outside must first be safe, if you can't level the thieves, how to deal with the next attack of the Youzhou army, is it possible that Lord Guo has to resist the Youzhou army on the one hand, and guard against the thieves on the other?"

Guo Tu was silent when he heard this, he suddenly was a little not optimistic about the situation in Jizhou, how strong the Youzhou army is, he is clear, the Youzhou army is no longer what it used to be, it can be seen from the war last year, dare to fight with the elite Xianbei people, this kind of army is not sure that it can win even when the Jizhou army is fighting.

And once the Youzhou army enters the hinterland of Jizhou, it will bring great turmoil to Jizhou, at this time, most of the soldiers and horses of the Jizhou army are outside Huguan, from the battlefield situation from Huguan, the situation on the battlefield is extremely unfavorable for the princes' coalition army, if Lu Bu does not fight a decisive battle with the princes' coalition army, Jizhou is in the middle of the war, which is a disaster for the princes' coalition army.

Especially under the plague, the princes' coalition army suffered a lot of losses, and the morale was low, if it continued according to this situation, it was very likely that the final victory would be the state army, after Lu Bu won, it is conceivable what the status of Jizhou will be.

In the past, the Jizhou army and the Bingzhou army were at odds with each other, and the two sides fought against each other, after this incident, Lu Bu was probably the first thing to deal with Jizhou, and some clues can be seen from the current actions of the Youzhou army.

If Jizhou falls into chaos, the Jizhou army far away from Huguan will definitely shake, but the funny thing is that at this time, Yuan Shanghe has not yet realized the danger of the situation.

Chen Zhi led 4,000 soldiers and horses, and after rushing to Lunu, he showed off the military posture of the Youzhou army outside the city.

No matter how elite the Youzhou army is, there are 7,000 Jizhou troops in the city at this time, and Guo Yuan can hold back, which does not mean that the generals below will swallow this breath.

Many generals saw that the Youzhou army was so arrogant, and they asked for battle.

Guo Yuan saw that it was difficult to disobey everyone's will, so he nodded and agreed.

The city gate of Lunu slowly opened, and five thousand soldiers rushed out, quickly arranging troops outside the city. ”

It is common for the two armies to answer in front of the battle, but more often than not, it is to put their own side on the side of righteousness, and then to demoralize the other side.

Chen Zhi jumped out of the horse, "I am the general under the command of the general, Chen Zhi is also, as a military general, that is, under the command of the general, this general came in the name of the general, and he did not quickly open the city gate to welcome the army into the city." ”

Guo Yuan's face turned red and retorted: "Chen Zhixiu is talking nonsense here, we are under the command of Marquis Ye, and you and others invaded the territory of Jizhou for no reason, such a person, everyone can be punished, and Lu Bu is a traitor of the Han Dynasty, everyone knows it." ”

Chen Zhi snorted coldly: "What's the use of talking about these, what are the princes' plans to attack and merge states, you know very well, the Jizhou army attacked and merged states for no reason, and we, as the subordinates of the Marquis of Jin, will naturally not give up." ”

"I don't know who dares to step forward and compete with General Ben." Chen Zhi held a spear in his hand and stood proudly in front of the two armies.

Guo Yuan's heart suddenly, the most important thing under Lu Bu is the fierce general, this is recognized among the princes, although he thinks that his martial arts are not weak, there is still a big gap compared with the real fierce generals in the army, the more Chen Zhi behaves like this, the more he feels jealous.

"Chen Zhi Xiu is rampant, General Ben will meet you." A general jumped on a horse and slashed at Chen Dao.

The battle was not combined, and Chen Zhi fell off the horse with a shot, from beginning to end, Chen Zhi's performance was light and light, and in Guo Yuan's opinion, he was still the same as a hanger.

Guo Yuan was shocked in his heart, the strength of the general in the army was not weak, and looking at Chen Zhi's performance on the battlefield, it was obvious that he had not done his best.

"Who else!" Chen Zhi suddenly shouted.

Many generals in the Jizhou army couldn't help but shrink their necks when they heard Chen Zhi's cheers, no one wanted to die on such a battlefield.

Guo Yuan saw that the generals under his command were already timid, and with a wave of the spear in his hand, the soldiers in front of him killed in the direction of Chen Zhi and the others.

The corners of Chen Zhi's mouth showed a sneer, Guo Yuan's actions indirectly proved that the strength of the Jizhou army was not as good as that of the Youzhou army, and the battle between the two armies in front of the battle could greatly stimulate the fighting spirit of the officers and soldiers in the army.

Now that the Jizhou army is coming, Chen Zhi plans to teach them a hard lesson, so that they can experience the power of strong crossbow soldiers, not to mention that there are 500 Xianbei cavalry who followed Chen Zhi to fight outside Lunu City this time.

"Ready!" Chen Zhi shouted, and the two thousand strong crossbowmen who followed were quickly divided into three groups, and there were Xianbei cavalry on both sides to be present, so there was no need to worry about the enemy attacking from the left and right.

This is also the first time that the Xianbei people have seen the strong crossbow soldiers shoot so clearly, when Lu Bu led the Youzhou army to fight Xianbei, the Xianbei people suffered in the hands of Chen Zhi, and Chen Zhi had a great reputation among the Xianbei people.

After approaching the distance of 100 paces, before the soldiers of the Jizhou army took their bows and arrows, Chen Zhi gave an order, and 600 strong crossbowmen released the crossbow arrows in their hands.

Now the strong crossbowmen under Chen Zhi's command can reach one hundred and ten steps in range, and this kind of strong crossbow can play a huge role in the battle between foot soldiers, after all, at this time, the range of bows and arrows in the princes' army can barely reach one hundred steps.

There was a power outage today, so the release was a little later than usual.
