The silver filaments dazzle and the people are haggard
Sun Guan and Zhang Ping listened to Zhang Niujiao's words and said again and again, as a lieutenant general of the Yellow Turban Army back then, he was second only to Bo Caide, and Zhang Niujiao's prestige in the Yellow Shirt Army was not under Zhang Yan. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info This is not a polite time, everyone is seizing the last time to try to improve the defense plan, twenty miles is less than an hour for Zhou Yu's army, and it is necessary to race against time.
"Sir, 20,000 soldiers of my Yellow Shirt Army swear to block Zhou Yu here in this battle, after all, there are more than 100,000 enemy troops, and it is the responsibility of my generals to die on the battlefield. After arranging everything, Sun Guan and the others immediately went to execute, and Zhang Niujiao came to Xun You's side and said, the next blocking battle knife to knife and gun to gun is not the slightest trick, and the strategists must evacuate before such a decisive battle starts.
"The general doesn't have to be like this, you are not a weak person who is powerless, this trip is to ask Your Majesty, since you come with the army, how can you retreat? The general and a group of soldiers are not afraid of life and death, how can they lag behind? When co-existing with the Yellow Shirt Army, he vowed not to let Zhou Yu pass a single soldier. Xun You smiled slightly when he heard this, but said with indignation, since he asked Liu Yi for his life to follow the Yellow Shirt Army, he was ready.
"Okay, in that case, the horns don't force Mr., please take care, Mr.'s behavior is admirable." Zhang Niujiao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then smiled heartily, and bowed to Xun You.
Seeing that the lord would be like this, the latter naturally stretched out his hand to help him, but at this time, Zhang Niujiao put his hands on the other party but suddenly took it into his arms, and his right hand became a knife and slashed directly at Xun You's neck. Since he didn't want to go, he had the idea of knocking him out and taking him away, as for him in the future, he didn't have to think about it, maybe he didn't have a chance to explain at all.
In terms of martial arts, Zhang Niujiao and Guan Hai and Zhou Cang were among the top four generals of the Yellow Turban, and with these years of hard training, his skills are enough to enter the first-class even if they are not called the top, but there are too many fierce generals in the Han army to cover up his edge. This time he was ready to attack and was unexpected, it can be described as fast as lightning, and his heart was not ready to deal with such a scribe as Xun Junshi? Of course, at this time, the strength in his hand was still somewhat grasped, and he was very measured, but what was surprising was that this blow failed.
"Hahaha, the general has been tested, and you have the ability to protect yourself, and this battle should be with the general." That day, in the handsome tent, Xi Zhicai and Guo Jia both said that Xun Yu's swordsmanship was above Xu Shu, which was by no means a beautiful word. The latter avenged his friends and killed the bully, but in the face of three or four strong men, it can also be seen that Xun You's skills are superb, even if Zhang Niujiao's subordinates stay strong, but he hides so calmly, it is enough to be called both civil and martial, and the joke after that is also the intention of the other party's shot is also passed.
"Hehe, Mr. is really a real person, no wonder His Majesty sent Mr. here! That being the case, sir, please. Zhang Niujiao looked at Xun You for a moment, then smiled slightly and said, the other party's skills and actions made him admire him even more, a little time is good at this moment, and he doesn't want to entangle more.
The two looked at each other and smiled without saying a word, how could Zhang Niujiao not know what Xun Yu meant? There is also gratitude in my heart, I can meet the battle of life and death without hesitation, do not leave any way out for myself, Zhang Niujiao's responsibility is by no means under a group of famous generals, how can the Kaiyuan Emperor not win a hundred battles?
The sky gradually darkened, but the long marching column of Jingnan soldiers was still speeding up, a big battle outside Yiling, they had a full understanding of the speed of the Han army, at this time the enemy army must follow closely behind to carry out the pursuit, their pace is slow to take a few more comrades responsible for blocking the fall, no matter how tired they are now, they can't let go of that breath, and they can only breathe when they reach Qikou.
Zhou Yuce, who was dressed in a white robe, rode his beloved horse and galloped in the middle of the queue, looking handsome and extraordinary from a distance, but when he got closer, his temples were already gray, and the silver threads in his black hair were so conspicuous, and Zhou Lang, who was frowning with thick eyebrows, could be described as haggard at this time.
Gong Jin is only thirty-four years old this year, it is the time when the man is the most young and strong, and his body is also extremely strong to be able to serve in the army, originally the gray hair at this time has absolutely nothing to do with him, but in the face of Liu Yi's million-strong army, the pressure he is under is too great. The strategy of holding it is just to sit and wait for death, but the desperate fight that is quietly planned will end in failure, and at this moment the Jingnan army has lost all the initiative in front of the Han army, and there will be a danger of annihilation at any time! Back then, Wu Zixu was worried about the strategy of getting through, and Zhou Lang is also average now, but the former's white head has solved the problem, but he will never have a chance to defeat Liu Yi again, and that kind of despair is even more devastating!
The four counties of Jingnan plus half of Jiaozhou, to compete with Liu Yi's ten states, this is simply an unfair confrontation with great disparity, and it took great effort to put together an army of more than 200,000 which has had a certain impact on the economy, but Liu Yi made a move with an army of nearly 700,000 on both roads! Whether it is combat strength or experience, the Jingnan Army is inferior to the opponent, this is simply an unwinnable battle.
Outside of Yiling, Zhou Yu has done everything he can to the extreme, and finally caused the local advantage of the Jingnan army, 200,000 against 50,000, or a field battle without any city as a barrier, I am afraid that in the eyes of any military strategist in the late Han Dynasty, the side with the superior number of people in such a battle is undoubtedly victorious! Zhou Yu even made the greatest estimate of the combat power of Zhang Liaoyan Yunjun.
But it turns out that as long as there is no actual battle, all predictions or guesses, regardless of whether you feel that you have paid enough attention to the other party, are still on paper. The skillful use of formations, the exquisite changes and conversions of timing, the extremely high morale of the soldiers and the exertion of the team's combat strength beyond the estimates, coupled with the calm command of the main general Zhang Liao, even Zhou Yu had to admit that when the battle of life and death came, the strength that the Han army could exert far exceeded the predictions he could make!
Five times the siege with the enemy for an hour to break through the outermost camp of the Yanyun army, three hours before making greater progress, the gap between the Jingnan army and the Han army is not only in actual combat, whether it is training or tactics, will or persistence, the two armies are by no means on the same level, that is a qualitative difference, it is no wonder that a famous general like Zhang Liao still dares to advance lightly under the condition of obvious disparity between the strength of the enemy and the weakness, and he is afraid that he will do this if he has such a judgment of the situation, After all, at the risk of being annihilated by yourself is to capture the entire main force of the other party, then it is definitely worth the risk!
When the two sides began to enter the climax of the battle, Zhou Yu had already adjusted the estimated time of annihilating Zhang Liaoyan's army again and again, and in seven hours, he needed at least seven hours to completely defeat the opponent. But the question is, will the rest of the Han army give themselves that much time? Even if he was given a huge number of casualties, would he be able to turn the tide of the battle by defeating the Yan Yun Army? The answer is obviously no, gnawing on a Yan Yun army is already so laborious, let alone the next Western Route Army.
But now Zhou Yu is already difficult to ride a tiger, and if he takes the initiative to withdraw his troops at this point, it will be tantamount to asking for his own death, he can be sure that Zhang Liao will pounce on him without hesitation if he sees him like this! Both horizontal and vertical are average, and annihilating the Yan Yun Army is the best ending.
However, even the lowest goal Zhou Yu failed to achieve, the Han army's backup came too fast and too fiercely, Hao Zhao's first battalion of soldiers was only harassing, but then Zang Ba gave Zhang Liao the greatest help when Yan Yunjun was in the most difficult time! More than 6,000 people, this is not an inconspicuous number in the entanglement of hundreds of thousands of troops, but it is the Flying Tiger Army, which is known as the strongest army in the world. Zang Ba broke through the 20,000 Jingnan soldiers who blocked him in person, and the price paid was half of the casualties, which means that half of the more than 6,000 people were wounded, but the combined power of the two armies allowed them to withstand the strongest impact of the opponent.
When Zhang Xiu's Yizhou battalion arrived at the battlefield again, Zhou Yu knew that he no longer had any chance, and the tacit cooperation between the generals of the Han army that did not need to be said shocked him even more. Where did the enemy cavalry go? According to the establishment of the Han army, the three sergeants were more than 10,000 cavalry, and none of the more than 10,000 elites appeared on the battlefield.
Will Zhang Liao make a mistake in arranging his troops? Zhou Yu would never think so, those cavalry were either interspersed with their left and right with the intention of cutting off the return route of the Jingnan army, or they were lurking not far away waiting for an opportunity, waiting for the opportunity to break the main force of the Jingnan army in one fell swoop. And no matter which possibility it is, it is unacceptable to Zhou Yu now, which will mean the annihilation of the whole army!
Retreat, Zhou Yu didn't want to, but he couldn't help but make this painful decision, if he continued to fight, even if it was a moment longer, the possibility of the annihilation of the Jingnan Army would increase by a few points, he couldn't see such a result, the hope of turning defeat into victory now seemed extremely slim or even ceased to exist, but only by preserving the main force could he strive for that glimmer of hope, a miracle, and now he could only hope for a miracle.
When Zhou Yu withdrew his troops, Zhang Liao finally let out a deep breath, but then he led the remnants of the exhausted soldiers to launch a counter-pursuit against the other party, rushed up to entangle the opponent, and created the most favorable situation for the successor friendly army, which became the greatest belief of Zhang Liao, Zangba, and Zhang Xiu.
