Chapter 292: Eighteen Warriors (I)
A brutal battle soon unfolded, the soldiers waved the weapons in their hands and went crazy to chop, fight, shouting while fighting, the soldiers in this environment were all red-eyed, either you die or I die, to this point everyone understands this truth, everything is out of the way, life and death may be in one action, maybe just hacked the other party to death, the other weapon has been encapsulated in their chest, but no matter whether the result is life or death, no one will choose to retreat, No one will wait for the enemy to cut off their heads, there will be no one waiting to be killed, and everyone is a brave man in this situation.
Guan Yu slashed hard with a sword in his right arm, blood had been splashed all over his clothes, red filled his sight, and from time to time there was red blood surging in front of his eyes, Guan Yu was accustomed to such killing, anyone in front of him was a live target, he could easily step on these soldiers under his feet, just like killing mosquitoes and flies, Guan Yu, who had never put these soldiers in his eyes, also realized the power of these mosquitoes and flies this time, and he couldn't catch up with them, and he couldn't kill them, and he kept coming head-on. It's like a swarm, but Guan Yu will soon be able to quickly defeat this encirclement, it's been a long time since I've fought so happily, no, it should be said that it's been a long time since I fought so hard, he didn't waste any effort to deal with these ants before, but this time he was a little powerless in the face of these ants, for the first time in his life, he felt the strength of these ants, it turned out to be so not to be underestimated, it turned out that they were so powerful, this force was strong enough to make him feel afraid that Ma Teng's army relied on the strength of the people, devouring Guan Yu's army with an overwhelming advantage. It is constantly swept away, like waves on the sea. Guan Yu's army was constantly churning and struggling in this turbulent wave, perhaps this struggle seemed so pale and weak. But even this kind of struggle is also a race against time, even if death comes again and again, no one will bow to death, even if it is death, it will die on the way to charge, this is the true portrayal of a soldier, this is the minimum blood of a soldier.
Although Guan Yu, as the commander of 10,000 people, was injured in his left arm, he did not fall into decay because of this, he used his right arm to support and slash hard, because he knew that he was the boss. So the enemy frantically pounced on Guan Yu, the enemy concentrated superior forces to attack Guan Yu, Guan Yu's right arm waved the sword and kept slashing, and a group of enemy troops fell around him, sometimes a group of enemy troops rushed towards him, but after a while, he heard the wailing and screaming one after another, and the entire enemy army surrounded by Guan Yu was killed everywhere, and fell horizontally and vertically.
Guan Yu drove the horse and slashed at the same time, Guan Yu was good. The sword is even sharper, so even if the left arm is injured, but with this right arm Guan Yu back and forth, it is like entering a no-man's land. The enemy army was a little frightened when he saw that Guan Yu was so good that he was killed, Guan Yu became more and more courageous, and he had not fought so happily for a long time. Of course, this is more to unload the fire, and he put all the resentment of Wu Xi's rebellion on this group of enemy troops. Some of the people who killed couldn't find the north, and the battle was still going on, almost entering a stalemate. Guan Yu's army was not only not overwhelmed by Ma Teng's heavy soldiers, but still doing a hard job, under the leadership of Guan Yu and Ma Teng's army launched a desperate battle, no one withdrew from the battle, although there was a huge difference in strength, although the enemy was outnumbered, but Guan Yu's army did not retreat and no one fled, under the leadership of Guan Yu, everyone fought to the death, this team has no heavy cavalry and no heavy infantry, it is the kind of ordinary cavalry infantry, but it is such a force that has burst out with amazing combat effectiveness, Of course, this team is Guan Yu's original troops, it is the team he brought out, it has been professionally trained, and of course it is more loyal to Guan Yu.
Although there are only 5,000 people left, but these 5,000 men and horses fought desperately to defend Guan Yu, and the army of Ma Teng who killed was full of blood, before Ma Teng only knew Guan Yu's strength, and knew that Guan Yu's strength was good, but he never thought that his troops had amazing combat effectiveness, and the team of only 5,000 people was so strong, it could not be eliminated for a while, so tenacious and difficult to conquer, especially the eighteen warriors around Guan Yu, all brave and good at fighting, all of them were ten with one as ten, desperately defending Guan Yu, Of course, Guan Yu's own strength was superior and he swept through one by one, and he was even more heroic than these people, but the eighteen warriors still did not abandon him, defending his periphery as much as possible, and reducing the pressure on him from the peripheral enemy forces as much as possible.
These eighteen warriors are the elite carefully selected by Guan Yu from hundreds of thousands of sergeants when he was training in Xiliang, these eighteen people are each strong and strong, and their strength is outstanding, plus Guan Yu's special training for them, these eighteen people have become Guan Yu's personal bodyguards, and the mission is to protect Guan Yu's safety, whether it is in war or in peacetime, unless it is Guan Yu's private life, otherwise these eighteen people are inseparable, even if they are not close to Guan Yu, they will haunt near Guan Yu
Then we will ask why Wei Lu was in Fufeng City before, why did these eighteen warriors not protect Guan Yu's safety? And let Guan Yu unfortunately be hit by an arrow in his left arm, which needs to take into account the specific situation at the time, for this kind of horse war, especially for the incoming bow and arrow, even if the eighteen warriors struggle to resist, they will also have cold arrows to hurt their bodies, because on the horse, they can only cover Guan Yu on the horse, and they can't do it to fly away, that can't be done anyway, even if the bodyguard at this time is professionally trained, the physique is good, but it can't fly from the horse to catch the flying bow and arrows, So it's not unusual for Guan Yu to be attacked by cold arrows.
On the battlefield, the only thing the eighteen warriors can do is to alleviate some unexpected attacks for Guan Yu, but if Guan Yu fights alone, it is an exception, if it is not alone, if it is a fight between the two armies, the eighteen warriors can often fight together by Guan Yu's side to prevent meaningful weapons from hurting Guan Yu, such as sudden cold arrows and attacks or something, just like this battle between the two armies, the eighteen warriors are fighting with Guan Yu left and right, but sometimes Guan Yu is more reckless, often so that the eighteen warriors have no room to play, As bodyguards, the eighteen warriors are inferior to this master in terms of strength and force, and sometimes they can't even keep up with the rhythm and pace of this master.
Guan Yu's ability is outstanding, and his strength is far above the eighteen warriors, in fact, he is not looking for these eighteen warriors as escorts because he really needs to provide protection, more often than not, he uses these eighteen people as a kind of pomp, and another point is that this is the eighteen close bodies he has carefully cultivated, but not to say anything about protection, these eighteen people are Guan Yu's most trusted eighteen cronies, what are cronies that are people who are absolutely loyal to themselves, more loyal, and at the same time they are still listening, listening to the people and things around them, The first is to prevent any abnormal eyes and ears from Guan Yu's side, and the second is to listen to the dynamics of Guan Yu's other subordinates, so the responsibility of these eighteen people is very expensive, and it is like his bodyguards in the outside world, but these eighteen warriors are all human sperm, engaged in special missions and tasks, except for Guan Yu, there will be no second person in the world who really understands them.
As an officer who grew up in the army, Guan Yu started the training of his cronies very early, not only limited to the selection of generals, but also put the training and monitoring on the agenda, it turned out that his far-reaching consideration is necessary, Guan Yu can have all this today without the positive role of these eighteen warriors, where does this start? Of course, it's a long story, since Guan Yu followed Dong Zhuo, along with his military exploits, Guan Yu's power and status have also been rising, his influence in the army is increasing day by day, his prestige has increased unprecedentedly, and he has become the largest real power figure under Dong Zhuo, all of which has not left the eighteen warriors Guan Yu can have such a high status for the battalion step by step, although it is inseparable from his own efforts and hard work, but Guan Yu can go so smoothly, and he is often supported by Dong Zhuo, these are inseparable from the eighteen warriors, Eighteen warriors, as Guan Yu's cronies and insiders, often jump up and down to collect intelligence for Guan Yu, so that Guan Yu can get first-hand information one step ahead, for example, when there is an emergency military situation, the army will soon talk about it, Dong Zhuo's side will naturally not be idle, and there will be a reaction, all this information cannot be inquired about by Guan Yu alone, and in view of his identity, he is inconvenient to do these things, so he must use his powerful men to do these things, and the eighteen warriors are playing this role, They can always capture all kinds of information at the first time, both inside the army and the outside world, after collecting this information, and then report to Guan Yu, Guan Yu will do countermeasures and research based on the information collected by the eighteen warriors, otherwise he will always stand out in front of Dong Zhuo? Guan Yu is not a god, although he goes with modern thinking and understanding of the Three Kingdoms, but when it comes to really doing things, he must also make a decision on the spot, so as not to respond to all changes.
It can be said that these eighteen warriors are equivalent to the modern intelligence department to collect and provide information for Guan Yu as much as possible for him to make decisions, and the most important thing for decision-makers is to capture accurate and timely information, and the information department in the army is a staff officer! In this era, there must also be this functional department, but Guan Yu has assigned this function to the eighteen warriors, and has done a specific division of labor within these eighteen people, some are responsible for external information capture, some are responsible for internal affairs investigation, some are specifically responsible for the movement of soldiers in the army, and there are those who are specifically responsible for the movement of generals in the army, of course, the most important thing is to be responsible for Dong Zhuo's movements, and each link is specifically responsible, of course, the entire information collection work is not limited to their own field, For example, if the person in charge of external information collection hears the news about internal affairs, he must also report to each other, and the entire information collection focuses on giving full play to the strength of the group.
