Chapter 204: Dingwei Nan
Lu Bu intimidated Huayin in the same way. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
However, the defender of Huayin City is an old general of Xiliang, who eats soft and not hard, and scolds in the city. Lu Bu's eyes were as cold as lightning, and the guards looked like they were being choked by the neck, bowing their heads to avoid their sight, and holding back the idea of killing the city to fight Lu Bu for three hundred rounds.
LΓΌ Bu left Zhang Xiu to besiege the city carefully, and exchanged the scimitar of the archery battalion for Zhang Xiu's equipment, and the archery battalion for spears. He secretly led the cavalry out of the camp in the middle of the night to Duan Xuan, where he was camped near Tongguan.
Tongguan is bordered by the Yellow River in the north, the Qinling Mountains in the south, and Huashan Mountain in the west. Mount Hua is like a sword in the sky, the Yellow River is like a dragon lying on the ground, Qinling is like a huge thing, and a majestic pass is towering among them.
Woowoo......
The sound of the horn is high-pitched and moving. At the edge of the vast plain, there are three huge phalanxes composed of countless small phalanxes, one of which is backed by Xiongguan and holds two huge phalanxes two hundred steps away, and the murderous aura is pervasive.
Ho ho ho ......
In front of Xiongguan, a dull trumpet cut the battlefield, and a heavy iron shield was pushed into front of the battle, and the black-brown shield surrounded the entire array.
Far to the west, on the horizon, a fiery red war horse is very conspicuous.
Lu Bu glanced into the distance, and one character general flag against two big flags, which was very eye-catching. Lu Bu said to Huang Zhong beside him: "It's okay, I arrived in time." β
Lu Bu and Huang Zhong are good at archery, and their eyesight is far better than ordinary people. Huang Zhong looked back and asked: "The enemy formation is deep and strict, and Duan Xuan's command is full of fierce Hu people, how does the lord make a decision?" β
"I'm not good at infantry, but cavalry. The Hu people are good at cavalry rather than foot combat, watch me charge into battle. β
Duan Xuan's war horses were scarce, and the Hu people were organized into infantry. The Hu people advocate personal bravery, if they come in the war horse, they will rush to kill like thunder, but they do not rhyme military discipline, if they are infantry, do not save each other, a hundred Hu people may not be able to defeat the ten Han soldiers who formed a battle array.
Woowoo......
The battlefield sounded a sharp horn again, and at the beginning of the Duan Xuan array, two thousand Hu cavalry came out. Two thousand bare heads, with only a little curved hair on the top door, and a thick beard on the upper circle, very fierce.
Hu rode a horse and mounted a spear, holding a halberd, and ran around the large array in front of the pass, looking for the weak point of the large array.
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
The big drums in front of the pass shook the sky, and the mountains echoed endlessly. The whole array was very quiet, and the soldiers were like terracotta warriors, standing between heaven and earth.
The two sides of the Great Gang moved at the same time and launched an attack on the standing Zhang Liao array. Twenty thousand heavy footsteps followed the sound of drums and horns. Rows of soldiers with beveled spears attacked the Zhang Liao battle array.
The distance between the two armies was 100 paces, and the flags of Daxu and Jiangqi waved, and the tripartite large array heard the sound of bowstrings, and tens of thousands of bows opened at the same time, and the sound was like thunder.
"Raise your shield!"
Suddenly, Duan Xuan saw that the sky above Zhang Liao's large array was covered by a dense round shield made of rattan, and countless black arrowheads stretched out from the gap between the shields. Duan Xuan secretly scolded Zhang Liao for being shameless, and it was not enough to line up the heavy shields like walls around the big array?
Fifty paces, the two armies are fifty paces apart, which can maximize the distance of the archers in your own large array to cover the enemy.
"Shoot the arrows!"
In the muffled sound, the arrows rained down in the air, and countless colliding arrows splashed in all directions. At the puff sound, Duan Xuan and Pei Mao's soldiers screamed miserably. Countless arrows bounced on the rattan plaque, shooting like a small number of them in the array. Pei Mao stood in place, and the momentum of the attack was slack.
"Cast!" Hu Qi finally found the flaw of the soldiers on the flank top shield wall at the moment of Zhang Liao's large array of archery and defense, and two thousand halberds were thrown at the big shield with the help of high-speed charging war horses.
......Dozens of halberds hit Zhang Liao's shield wall at the same time, the entire shield wall shook violently, and the bodies of the three strong soldiers leaning forward could not withstand the huge force on the shield, some were shocked back, some were shaken flying, and some were knocked down, but there was contact, and all of them were shocked on the spot and vomited blood.
"The big array is broken, the big array is broken...... General Zhang, do you think we can win? Countless generals looked at Hu Qi, who was about to break through the formation, and squeezed towards Zhang Liao's side.
"Hu Qi is good at fighting, and he lives up to his name. Complement the formation! Zhang Liao praised in a low voice, and immediately ordered. Under the full force of Hu Qi's javelin, the entire formation shook violently, and the formation was chaotic.
The soldiers who resisted the big shield couldn't drag the heavy shield for a while, and failed to re-establish the big shield in time, and the rows of rattan cards were instantly filled.
"Bump...... Sneer......"
The next moment, the enemy cavalry collided, and countless war horses slammed into the shield wall, like a flood rolling in, and the deafening impact sound was terrifying. Countless horses' heads hit the heavy shields, and the horses' heads splashed, and countless shields broke on the spot. These shields were all 'sent' to Lu Bu by Liu Biao's army, and they were very sophisticated, and Lu Bu had no material resources to build them at all.
If it weren't for the enemy's eyes on the sidelines, the door was closed, and the retreat was cut off, maybe the group of tired divisions under Zhang Liao would be defeated overnight.
The enemy rode into the battle, without Zhang Liao's order, the soldiers who received the enemy fought back, the spears stabbed, countless war horses collided, the horses were pierced with several spears, the air was filled with blood mist, and under the sunlight, it was extremely charming. The next moment, the soldiers who were blocking the way in front of Hu Cai were taken seven or eight steps out by the rushing war horses, and the soldiers and horses of the two sides fell to the ground.
Once he fell to the ground, whether he was dead or alive, he was trampled into a pulp by the Hu cavalry who continued to charge behind. Zhang Liao's battle array was attacked by Hu Cai's lifeless impact and broke through to three or four.
"General, the enemy cavalry is about to break the formation, why don't you retreat to the gate?" General Pi found Zhang Liao and shouted urgently.
"On the side of the lord's army, he will be responsible for delaying the enemy's position, and once and for all, it will be today. Return to command the soldiers! Zhang Liao scolded loudly. It turned out that Zhang Liao received an order from Lu Bu, and he was responsible for delaying Duan Xuan and Pei Mao's army, and when Duan Xuan's large array was missing, Lu Bu led the cavalry to raid and behead. As long as the two main generals Duan Xuan and Pei Mao were killed, the 20,000 army was immediately routed, and that was the time for Zhang Liao's army to counterattack.
Zhang Liao formed a large defensive array, thinking that it was foolproof, but he didn't expect Duan Xuan to be a ruthless person, and he would sacrifice two thousand Hu cavalry to take the level. Duan Xuan broke the formation with cavalry, and the infantry followed after the cavalry, and poured into Zhang Liao's large array from the gap in the large array. As long as Duan Xuan captures Tongguan and leads Cao soldiers into the pass to expel Lu Bu, he Duan Xuan is the first great hero, and what he loses today can be recovered ten times and a hundred times in the future, so he sent the cavalry to die and break the formation at the cost of the total destruction of the cavalry.
On the horizon in the distance, the black-pressed cavalry of his own Xuanjia finally came into view, and a 'Auxiliary General' tooth flag with a black background and a deficit was blown straight by the wind in the air.
"Cone Formation!" Fang Tian painted the halberd and raised it obliquely to the sky.
As soon as the words fell, the cavalry horses lined up in a straight line ran slowly, Huang Zhong and Zhou Cang accelerated behind Lu Bu, Wei Yue, Xiao Xiong and other warriors returned to the third row, and a column of cavalry accelerated forward in an orderly manner, and in an instant, a compact triangular battle array came out.
The cone formation is an offensive battle formation that sacrifices defense, the forward is sharp and fast, and the two wings are strong and powerful, the forward is responsible for breaking through the enemy's large formation head-on, and the two wings are responsible for cutting and expanding the gap in the enemy formation.
Lu Bu's sudden arrival was far beyond the plans of Duan Xuan and Pei Mao. Duan Xuan was originally an old general under Dong Zhuo's account, and the generals of Xiliang were all brave people, whenever there was no retreat in the battle array, he was commanding the soldiers to kill the enemy at the front line, seeing the arrival of Lu Bu's cavalry, he was difficult to withdraw, and sent someone to invite Pei Mao in the distance to line up to block the enemy. Duan Xuan was jealous of Lu Bu's prestige, but his cavalry had all been used to break the formation, and the whole army was annihilated, and if he wanted to stop Lu Bu's cavalry from charging into the formation, he could only rely on Pei Mao's infantry. Duan Xuan didn't ask Pei Mao to annihilate Lu Bu's cavalry, he only hoped that he could hold the enemy cavalry.
"Up!"
The horses' hooves rattled and the earth shook. A thousand cavalry bowed and swooped. Lu Bu gave up the maneuver of the bow and cavalry battalion, and the effect with bows and arrows was too slow, and the time was urgent, and the only battle was decided that he could free his hands to go back to the west. Lu Bu exchanged the scimitar for Zhang Xiu's tribe, just to break the enemy with force.
Pei Mao reluctantly lined up a battle formation before the arrival of Lu Bu's cavalry. It's just that the enemy cavalry is getting closer and closer, the cold face of the enemy cavalry is extremely clear, and the fearless determination of the enemy cavalry makes the soldiers in front of Pei Mao's battle feel furious.
Ten paces away, ten steps away.
The horse's hooves flew over, and Lu Bu suddenly accelerated, taking two steps and one step at a time, and in an instant, the halberd stabbed the enemy shield obliquely. The power of the red rabbit horse's fastest speed blessing is like ten thousand jun, the enemy shield is like tofu piercing in response, the speed of the halberd does not decrease the slightest, and the soldier behind the shield is pierced with a poof.
Lu Bu's wrist was forced, and he savagely broke the big shield on the painting halberd, and the painting halberd swept across, and blood gushed out, like a fountain. Huang Zhong behind him was even more violent, the phoenix mouth sharp knife slashed from top to bottom, the blade passed everywhere, and the enemy was chopped in half before he could scream. Over and over again, the soldiers died silently, and everywhere they passed, they were shattered. Zhou Cang drank wildly, and every shot was as strong as he could, violently slapping the enemy into the air, the scene was brutal and terrifying.
The cavalry behind him squeezed into battle, and the enemy soldiers who had no time to dodge were trampled into pulp amid the screams.
Lu Bu had countless enemy corpses hanging on his head, the speed was too fast, and their corpses were carried upside down by the red rabbit horse before they had time to slide down, flying out a few steps before falling to the ground, and no one was spared under the halberd.
Seeing the enemy cavalry entering the battle, countless soldiers only had time to let out a miserable scream, and the next moment they were stabbed to the core. Their carcasses were trampled into flesh by the wind-swept horses' hooves.
"Slash!"
Lu Bu suddenly shouted, very piercing in the screams. Take the cavalry and kill the opponent's Daxu.
"Slash!"
The cavalry shouted at the same time, and the neat cheers silenced the noisy battlefield. The voice of the cavalry shuttling through the enemy formation seriously hit Pei Mao's morale. The sound of horses' hooves rushed towards Pei Mao's place. From a distance, Lu Bu's small group of cavalry rushed back and forth in the huge enemy formation, passing through like a plowrake, the enemy army collapsed on all sides, and a red avenue paved with flesh and blood in the large formation was extremely cruel, dividing the large array into two.
"Guard...... Bodyguard! Pei Mao saw that Lu Bu's cavalry broke through the layers of human walls and rushed to the Chinese army to kill, and hurriedly commanded his guards to step forward to resist the enemy.
The cavalry was like a meat grinder, rushing forward. Guns and halberds were wielded, Pei Mao's personal guards did not imagine that the guns were killed, only Lu Bu, Huang Zhong, Zhou Cang and other fierce generals killed the enemy soldiers who approached, and the spears of other soldiers were broken one after another.
"Double!?" In order to confirm his speculation, Lu Bu used a painting halberd to pick open the outer armor of a soldier, revealing another layer of chain mail inside.
"This Pei Mao is afraid of dying tightly, ordinary soldiers don't have a single armor, but his personal guards wear two layers of armor."
"Our army has lost its spirit, what can I do?" Huang Zhong said loudly. The cavalry could not kill the guards who were pressed up on top of each other, and the horses lost their charging spirit, and once they were surrounded by this infantry, it was extremely dangerous. The cavalry relied on the first bravery, and once it was weak, it was difficult to break through the enemy formation.
"The old general cuts the general's flag, and a certain enemy will cut the enemy's general."
Lu Bu lifted the reins of the horse, and the red rabbit horse soared into the air, rushing into Pei Mao, who was surrounded by layers of cores. Pei Mao was dressed in a big red cloak, and his tasseled helmet was very eye-catching, which was particularly conspicuous in a group of black-armored soldiers, and it was difficult not to pay attention.
"Matchless Flurry!" The skills that Lu Bu had not used all this time raged out, dividing the guards who were about to come up around him into pieces.
"The madman is going to commit murder!" Pei Mao was horrified, and drew the sword at his waist to resist Lu Bu's oblique slash.
Boom. The painting halberd slashed Pei Mao's helmet, Pei Mao felt a burst of darkness, countless stars appeared in his head, his limbs were weak, and his body was spinning in the air.
