Chapter 35 Yingchuan Shan Fu

"Lord, Liu Bei's army has arrived, stop the siege as soon as possible and prepare for battle!" Xun Yu on the side heard this, and hurriedly said.

"Zixiao knows the changes in the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array, and he didn't expect to be defeated by Liu Bei so easily, it seems that there are capable people in the Xuzhou army!" Cao Ying sighed, then waved his hand a little weakly to stop the siege, and then asked again: "How about Guan Yu's reinforcements in the west?" ”

Xun You was stunned for a moment, but still told the truth: "General Zilian just sent someone to deliver the message, saying that Guan Yu was blocked by him and could not advance. ”

"That's good!" Cao Ying also breathed a sigh of relief, and then ordered the three armies to set up their positions and prepare to fight Liu Beijun to the death.

"Hey, Cao Bing has retired?" Guan Hai, who was at the head of Peiguo City, suddenly found that Cao Bing had stopped attacking, and instead retreated several miles to set up a position to face the east, as if he was preparing for something.

"General Guan, it should be the lord's reinforcements that have arrived." Jian Yong took a closer look and immediately came to such a conclusion. "I guess it's too, come here, pass the order, let the soldiers hurry up and rest, and when the lord's reinforcements arrive, they will attack Cao Ying!" Although Guan Hai has not learned any art of war, he has fought a lot of wars, and this common sense is still there. At present, the defenders did not remove their armor, and directly found a place to lie down and sleep on the head of the city, and they were already exhausted from the mental and physical pressure of the past two days, and soon fell asleep.

"Lord, do you want to fight Liu Bei?" In the middle of Cao Jun's formation, Guo Jia leaned over to Cao Ying's side and asked.

"It's come to this, and we have to fight." Cao Ying said in a deep voice. Guo Jia was silent, he put forward the idea of entering Xuzhou at the beginning, but he didn't expect this Guan Hai to be so difficult, and what he didn't expect was that Cao Ren actually lasted a day and was defeated.

"It seems that we still underestimate Liu Bei! In just a few years, Xuzhou can be built to this point, this big-eared thief is not simple! As if he had a soul in his heart, Cao Ying sighed at this moment, and Guo Jia also nodded secretly.

After a short time, a black line gradually appeared in the east, and then gradually thickened and got closer and closer. Finally, at a distance of about a mile between the two sides, the incoming army stopped.

"Brother Xuande, it's been a long time!" Cao Ying saw that the Chinese army was wearing armor, and immediately hung up two long swords, it was Liu Bei, who hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and this scene still has to be explained.

"Brother Meng De, I can't imagine that now you and I have to go to the battlefield to have a chance to meet!" Liu Bei still had something to say, and drove the horse a few steps forward while talking.

"Hehe, Xuande, I still have an army of 100,000 here, do you really want to fight me?" Cao Ying pointed to the huge military array behind him, which was a bit threatening. The implication is that I have a lot of money, and you'd better not push too hard, otherwise you won't be able to afford to lose.

Liu Bei smiled and said directly: "If you want to fight, you will fight!" Then he fought his horse and returned to the battle. Seeing this, Cao Ying knew that this battle was bound to be fought, and he was also quickly returning to the battle at the moment, and the soldiers on both sides began to launch one after another, preparing for a big battle.

"Hey, why don't you fight?" Zhao Feng was gearing up to fight with others, not wanting the two bigwigs to be ready to fight directly, this time he was really caught off guard.

"Kill!" I don't know which soldier roared first, and then the nearly 200,000 people under Peiguo City began to roar, and the two sides rushed up to prepare for battle. At such times, a general with excellent command or brave combat often plays a more important role than a strategist. As for strategy, it is difficult to come up with any strategy for such an encounter in the plains unless it is planned in advance.

How many are these? Zhao Feng didn't know, he only knew that he was in the chaos now, with only a few hundred guards around him, and then he was the core to rush left and right. Ordinary Cao soldiers were directly stabbed to death by him, and over time, he felt that the killing action had become a mechanical poke out and then withdrawn. The spear in his hand was changed several times, and each time it was snatched from the person he had killed.

"Cao Ying'er, accept your life!" There was a roar like thunder, and then a fierce general was like a speedboat rowing across the waves, directly towards Cao Ying's Chinese army. The soldiers who tried to intercept him on the way were either killed or split in half by him. It's none other than Zhang Fei.

"Prime Minister quickly avoid!" Guo Jia saw that Zhang Fei was leading people to menacing, and hurriedly admonished. "I don't retreat, I have an army of 100,000, 100,000. He Zhang Fei is only a few people, and he just knocked me back, where is my face? Cao Ying looked at Zhang Fei, who was getting closer and closer, and gritted his teeth.

When Xu Chu, who was beside Cao Ying, heard this, his eyes suddenly cracked. "Zihe General, you protect the lord, I will kill Zhang Fei!" After Xu Chu roared, he turned on his horse and led his team of Tiger Guards to meet Zhang Fei and the elite soldiers of Bai Er led by him.

This Bai Er elite soldier is Chen Zhi since he defected to Liu Bei, selected the best of them from the original elite Danyang elite soldiers and trained, all of them can at least be ten with one as ten, in terms of combat effectiveness is comparable to Gao Shun's trap camp, even Zhao Feng sighed that he couldn't train such elite soldiers. Ping Yueli is specifically responsible for Liu Bei's safety, in history, Liu Bei was burned by Lu Xun and defeated the battalion, Chen Zhi only led 400 Bai Er's elite soldiers to break, but he actually killed tens of thousands of Wu troops in Ma'anshan. This time, in order to attack Cao Ying's Chinese army, Liu Bei also gave Zhang Fei 3,000 of the 5,000 Baier elite soldiers in one go, leaving only 2,000 to be led by Chen Zhi to protect the Chinese army, which was really a bloody investment.

And this Tiger Guard Army is not an ordinary elite soldier, but Xu Chu and Cao Chun, the two people who are the best at training soldiers in Cao Ying, selected from Cao Ying's Qingzhou Army and carefully trained. Although Zhao Feng has flickered away several yellow turbans to defect to Liu Bei, the historical surname is still strong, and the largest yellow turban team in Qingzhou was still incorporated by Cao Ying. The 300,000 Qingzhou troops are gone, but there are still 200,000. The elite of the Tiger Guard Army and even the Qingzhou soldiers may not be as good as the elite soldiers of Baier in terms of combat effectiveness, but they are still above the elite soldiers of Danyang. Besides, there are only 3,000 elite soldiers in Baier, but there are 10,000 Tiger Guards, and there are 5,000 who are engaged in the battle this time.

Zhang Fei faced Xu Chu, and Bai Er's elite soldiers fought against the Tiger Guards. Driven by this arrow figure, the soldiers on both sides are desperate to die. The Xuzhou soldiers are the elite of the world, and Cao Ying's Yanzhou army is not a dry meal, and it is difficult to kill for a while, Cao Ying and Liu Bei also personally beat the drum to cheer, and for a while, the momentum of both sides was great, and the killing was even more crazy.

It was already afternoon when the two sides engaged, it was autumn, and it was dark early. The melee between the two sides has only been two hours, the moon is already in the sky, the stars are dotted, but on the ground, more than 100,000 people are fighting for life and death.

At this time, Guan Hai also organized 5,000 elites, and suddenly came out of Peiguo City and went straight to the rear of Cao's army. Cao Yingwan didn't expect Guan Hai to dare to fight, and this time the situation was a little chaotic. "General Song, let's see if you can shoot Cao Ying!" Zhao Feng also led a team of men and horses to kill not far from Cao Ying, but he couldn't kill him after several shocks. Zhao Feng knew that he was not good at bows and arrows, and suddenly saw that Song Xian was just killed, and he thought that he was born in the north and should be good at riding and archery, so he beckoned him to make a move.

Sure enough, Song Xian looked at Cao Ying, gestured the distance, and yelled: "Protect me!" Dozens of pro-soldiers around him stepped forward to protect him, and Song Xian took the opportunity to draw an arrow and shoot straight at Cao Ying.

"Prime Minister be careful!" This arrow was halfway through the shooting, so Cao Chun found it, and almost instinctively, Cao Chun swung his knife and slashed at the arrow. The arrow was half a foot off, and the arrow that was originally aimed at Cao Ying's throat hit his right shoulder socket.

"Ahh Cao Ying screamed and turned over and fell off the horse, Song Xianzheng felt sorry for himself, but he heard Zhao Feng already shouting: "Cao Ying is dead!" Cao Ying is dead! There are more and more people shouting, and Song Xian himself understands it and shouts along.

When the soldiers of the Cao army who were fighting fiercely heard this, they turned back to check the Chinese army in their own military formation, but saw that Cao Ying under the banner was gone, leaving only his war horse alone, and they all panicked. I don't know who took the lead first, in short, more and more Cao soldiers began to give up the battle and chose to run back. "The prime minister is dead, what are we going to fight?" Here's what they think.

"Chase!" Liu Bei saw that Cao's army was beginning to rout, and immediately ordered a pursuit. Although Cao Ying quickly turned over again to stabilize the morale of the army, the military formation was already in chaos. Seeing that there was nothing to do, Cao Ying had to order the soldiers to retreat in an orderly manner. Liu Bei chased and killed for a while, and seeing that Cao Ying had recovered his position, he didn't care about himself at the moment, and retreated after more than ten miles of pursuit.

In this battle, the two sides fought in a scuffle, with more than 24,000 casualties in the Xuzhou army, but nearly 40,000 in the Cao army. Since Liu Bei joined the army, this battle has actually been the most tragic. After the war, Liu Bei gathered his army and followed Lu Su's suggestion to set up two villages under Peiguo City, defending one village by himself and one village by Zhang Fei.

At the same time, in a camp more than 30 miles away from this battlefield, the atmosphere was rather dull. Guan Yu, who was sitting in the middle of the big tent, had a gloomy face, and he was so red that he was about to turn black. In the morning, they came to the rescue of Pei Guo, but they met Cao Hong's army by a narrow road. I thought I could catch it with my hands, but I didn't want this Cao Hongbu to take the next position. He led the army to rush and kill several times, but he also returned in vain, but he lost many sergeants, and even Pei Yuanshao was shot.

"Second general, there is a Confucian outside, who asks to see him, claiming to be able to break the Cao army's big array." At this moment a sentry came to report.

"Huh?" Guan Yu was also stunned. "Let him in!" Although he has always despised scholars, but now he is blocked from advancing or retreating here, and he heard that someone can break the other party's big array, Guan Yu was also overjoyed, and he actually used a word of invitation for the first time.

After a while, the sentry brought in a Confucian scholar, who was only in his twenties. "Yingchuan Shan Fu, meet General Guan!" Someone came to give a salute.

"Sir doesn't need to be polite, how can Sir break this formation?" Guan Yu saw that it was a young man, and thought that the other party might not have any ability, and his tone couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

As if sensing Guan Yu's tone, Shan Fu smiled slightly and said, "Shan is not talented, but Cao Jun's Eight Golden Lock Array, there is still a way to break him." ”
