Chapter 8 [The Three Brothers of Taoyuan Are Out]
(Grandmaster!) Dameng gave another shot, this support is really leveraged, didn't say it, shook hands. )
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At the beginning of the Battle of Jieqiao, the people of the time were not optimistic about Yuan Shao, after all, Gongsun Zan and his Youzhou army were so famous that they could almost be called invincible opponents in the north. In the battle of Dongguang last year, 30,000 troops broke through the Bohai Sea and 300,000 yellow turbans, which shocked the world.
At that time, Yuan Shao, who was in charge of Jizhou for the first time, was waiting to be lifted, in addition to being famous, in terms of military affairs, it was generally believed that he was inferior to Gongsun Zhan. Even Yuan Shao himself did not deny this, otherwise he would not have handed over the important position of Bohai Taishou to Gongsun Zhan's younger brother Gongsun Fan, and he would be soft and well. If it weren't for Gongsun Zhan's large-scale invasion of Hebei this time, and the soldiers pointed directly at his old nest, Yecheng of Wei County, which was forbidden and had to fight, Yuan Shao really didn't want to provoke this big evil star.
Unsure, Yuan Shao led the Chinese army and the rear army to slowly advance south from Guangchuan (now Zaoqiang, Hebei), and let Lu Yi lead the front army to Jieqiao to engage Gongsun Zhan first. This was originally just a tentative fight, but I never expected that Gongsun Chan would have failed miserably and was beaten to defend himself, if it weren't for the accidental death of Ko Yi, it is conceivable that Gongsun Chan would have lost even worse.
The great joy completely diluted the grief of losing one of the generals, Yuan Shao immediately accelerated his march, rushed to the front line of the Jieqiao, and took advantage of the victory to launch a general attack on the camp of Gongsun Zhan's Youzhou army.
It was under such circumstances that Ma Han threw himself into this chaotic battle.
At this moment, Ma Hanzheng led dozens of scouts, stationed in a forest, and watched from afar.
By noon, the two armies had taken up positions near the boundary bridge and sent each other forward to make a tentative attack, and by this time thousands of infantry had formed a melee. The cavalry of both armies harassed and charged the enemy on both flanks.
The battle entered a stalemate, and at this time, in front of the left flank of the Youzhou Army, a red banner of the Sima level of the army flew out of the battle, and more than 100 horsemen surrounded the banner and rushed towards the cavalry on the right wing of the Jizhou Army.
Above the banner, the word "Liu" is very eye-catching. There is only one Sima-level general of the Youzhou Army, surnamed Liu-Liu Bei.
Ma Han immediately locked his eyes on the three horsemen under the banner: the first general in the middle was wearing armor and holding a long lance; The one on the left side will also hold the lance, but the lance is extremely long, a quarter longer than the general lance, reaching an astonishing length of four meters, expressed in the size of the Han Dynasty, that is, the Zhangba long lance. The first general on the right is holding a long knife with a narrow blade, and the nine-foot handle glows silver in the sunlight - it is actually an iron-handled long knife.
On both sides of the big banner of Liuzi, they are the small blue flags of "Guan" and "Zhang".
Liu Guanzhang! Sure enough, the three Taoyuan brothers came out.
Liu Bei lived in the cavalry, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei protected his flanks, surrounded by more than 40 cavalry, and nearly 50 archers on both wings, which was the elite of Liu Bei's nearly 1,000 private soldiers.
Liu Bei was a different Sima at this time, and there were more than 1,000 soldiers in his hands, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were appointed as military marquises respectively. But among the more than 1,000 horses, there are only more than 100 cavalry, and the rest are foot soldiers, and these more than 100 cavalry are the only elite that Liu Bei can handle. At this time, the battle has reached a critical moment, it is a good time to express Xiàn, Liu Bei, who is the best at grasping the opportunity, will naturally not miss it, and show his strength to the fullest.
But the forty or so horsemen were lined up in a small wedge-shaped formation, and the fifty archers were scattered behind them, from south to north, and swirled through the flanks. Hundreds of horsemen were like the wind, swords and guns were down, arrows were like flying locusts, the Jizhou soldiers were caught off guard, and the soldiers outside the army fell like mowing grass.
Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei waved their swords and danced their spears, and their horses flew like flies, cutting through the outer edge of the right side of the enemy formation. The blades shattered bones, the blades cracked the skin, and the leather armor and wooden shields were all shattered. More than forty horsemen, armed with spears and spears, took advantage of the horse's momentum to pierce the enemy's leather armor, wooden shields, and bodies that had lost the cover of their armor and shields......
Fifty cavalry and archery servants were established by Liu Bei in imitation of Gongsun Zhan's White Horse Righteousness. It's just that qualified riding archers are definitely scarce talents, with Gongsun Zhan's ability, there are only more than 1,000 white horse righteous followers under his command, how much can Liu Bei recruit? Therefore, Liu Bei had to expand the target of recruitment, and most of his fifty archers were Karasuma and Xianbei, so Fang barely formed a combat effectiveness.
The Hu people did have a natural advantage in horse archery, and almost every time they fired an arrow, someone in the enemy formation would fall to the ground. In this way, they galloped back and forth three times in front of the battle, firing more than a dozen arrows per horse, and no less than 100 Jizhou soldiers died in their hands, and the number of wounded was double.
The sudden blow caused the Jizhou soldiers to panic, and the crowd crowded and trampled on each other, and dozens of people were killed and wounded.
Only a small group of cavalry achieved such a result, which greatly boosted the morale of the Youzhou army and cheered.
In the camp on the south bank of the Panhe River, on the temporary four-zhang tower, Gongsun Zhan, the commander of the Youzhou Army, was dressed in heavy armor and led the big leader, standing on the top of the tower and watching the battle by the railing. Seeing this situation, I couldn't help but pat the column and praise: "Xuande is really extraordinary, and he has made another contribution to my Youzhou army." ”
It is precisely because of Liu Bei's outstanding performance that after the Battle of Jieqiao, Gongsun Zhan rewarded his meritorious deeds and performed Liu Bei as the prime minister of the plains and took charge of a county alone. For a long time after that, Liu Bei has been called "Liu Pingyuan" or "Liu Yuanjun", and he really has a place to accumulate his own team.
Liu Bei's adventure was successful.
As time passed, the three Taoyuan brothers, who seemed to be majestic, slowly showed a decline. First of all, the archers, after firing nearly 20 arrows in a row, most of their strength is consumed, and at this time they must retain a little spare strength, so as not to be taken advantage of by the enemy, and it can be said that they have temporarily lost the ability to continue fighting. Under Liu Bei's order, the archers gathered and scattered, covering each other and retreating to their own formation.
Then there were the light cavalry, which rushed quickly and sharply, and not only the physical strength of the people was drastically lost, but the same was true of the horses. A few sprints back and forth, the killing effect is remarkable, and the cost is a lot of physical consumption.
At present, among this team of strange soldiers, except for Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who are still fierce and fierce, the rest of the riders are all at the end of the crossbow.
Liu Bei was also out of breath, looking around, quite satisfied with his own results, the goal had been achieved, and he could withdraw.
"Yun Chang, Yide, return to the army!"
As soon as Guan and Zhang warmed up, they heard the eldest brother's retreat order. Although they were a little unwilling, on the battlefield, the military order came first, and they were fine, but the war horse under the crotch couldn't bear it, so they could only withdraw first.
It's just that the Jizhou army is not easy to get along with, their cavalry is stirring up wind and rain on the right flank, how can the middle army of the Jizhou army be indifferent? Just as Liu Guan was about to turn around, dozens of banners appeared in the middle and rear armies of the Jizhou Army, and they hurriedly outflanked them.
Dozens of flags belonged to three groups, about 300 horsemen, and galloped under the leadership of three generals. Their recognition flags are embroidered with logos such as "Yan", "Wen" and "Zhang".
Ma Han's eyes narrowed, among these surnames, regardless of the surname Zhang, the surnames Yan and Wen are extremely rare, and they are even more specific in Yuan Shaojun. Wouldn't it be ......
At this time, the Jizhou chasing cavalry relied on its abundant horsepower and quickly intercepted more than a dozen horsemen under Liu Bei who had withdrawn to the halfway, including Zhang Fei after the break. Liu Bei and Guan Yu, who had already escaped from the encirclement, saw that their third brother was surrounded, and without thinking about returning to the horse to rescue, they plunged into the encirclement of the Jizhou army.
"Xiangguo Yan Liang."
"Yingchuan Wenchou."
"Zhang He in the river."
"Don't wait yet, get off your horse and be bound!"
Ma Han heard it from afar, and smiled brightly, sure enough, it was them, this time, there was a good show.
