~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On July 14, the third day of the war between the Yuan army and the Montenegrin army, after the first day of bloody battles, both sides had the bottom in their hearts, knowing that it was impossible to eat the opponent in one bite, and it would be a time-consuming stalemate battle.

Under such circumstances, it is not easy to make any sneak attacks, night attacks, volleys, or deceive the enemy. No one is a fuel-efficient lamp, Yuan Jun does not need to say, although the Black Mountain Army is similar in nature to the Yellow Turban, Bai Bo, etc., but its military strength is far more than the two, and it also has the help of Tu Ge and Karasuma, and Yuan Shao competes with it, and does not fall behind at all.

However, this does not fall behind and only refers to the battle of the army, and when it comes to the showdown of the Yao Array, it is eaten to death.

After a short two-day rest, the two armies lined up again to face each other. However, the orientation of the Yuan army's formation this time was different from the day before, and the formation was oblique to the southwest, that is, the back was southeast and the northwest was faced. As a result, the Montenegrin coalition army could only tilt to the northwest and face the Yuan army.

Lu Bu still led more than 20 cavalry to provoke between the two armies.

Tu Ge and Karasuma Huqi already knew who he was, and even if they didn't know it, they were shocked by Lu Bu's god-killing posture two days ago, and for a while, no one dared to go out to fight.

Ma Han and the others were still standing in the military formation of Gao Lan, watching the heroic posture of the god of war of the Three Kingdoms.

Guan Hai exclaimed: "This trip is really not in vain, such a god general, and the rider of the tiger and wolf under his command, who can match it in the world." Suddenly woke up and lost his words, and hurriedly said, "Of course, if you face our army's wolf tooth flying horse." It may not be pleased. ”

Ma Han said lightly: "If Lu Fengxian is a general, he can indeed be called a god general...... It's a pity that he can only be a general, charging into battle and destroying the enemy. If he is handsome, he will only lead this strong army to destruction. ”

Xia Houlan also said: "That's right, this person is extremely brave, but because of this, he relies on his own force and is the commander of an army." It is unwise to only take dozens of riders and wade into danger recklessly. ”

Between the whispers of the three of them, Lu Bu had already led the cavalry from the cavalry and the Tu Ge cavalry who were wandering outside the formation to exchange fire.

These cavalry slaughtered in order to ensure the safety of the right flank of the army, and originally did not dare to confront Lu Bu, but Lu Bu's horse speed was too fast, and it was a series of arrows to catch up, and more than ten horsemen were shot in a moment. Tu Ge rangers ran and couldn't run, and they couldn't win and fight. The wolf bèi had to retract into the formation, and the supply hand gave way to the defensive line.

And when LΓΌ Bu rushed close to Tu Gehu's right flank position, Tu Gehu's cavalry suddenly rushed out of more than 100 cavalry, and a burst of rain struck. Intensively shot at Lu Bu. Rao is Lu Buce rode to dodge quickly, and he was still hit by several arrows on his body, and even the red rabbit horse was not spared. Fortunately, Tu Gehu didn't dare to rush closer, but just fired arrows from a distance. The arrows are weak, and the bright light armor on Lu Bu's body is fine, and the arrows are difficult to penetrate. And the horse is also covered with horse armor, as long as it is not close to the fire, ordinary arrows are not very threatening.

Cheng Lian, Wei Yue and others hurriedly chased after them from the horse, and even pleaded guilty. Lu Bu didn't care about removing the arrows on his body with his hand, and said to Cheng Lian who followed closely: "Yijie, look at the thief who shoots the lone on the right." So saying, an arrow was struck, and the man fell from his horse, and then he shot the knight on the far left, and so on twelve times, and all of them were hit. Cheng Lian, Wei Yue and others also led their bows and galloped shots. From time to time, the enemy horsemen who galloped side by side with them were shot by arrows and fell off their horses screaming. Five rounds were fired from each side, but there were no casualties on LΓΌ Bu's side, but the cavalry that came to resist was almost completely killed or wounded.

The bravery of Lu Bu and his others disgraced the Montenegrin coalition army, and also made Yuan's army like a rainbow, and the three armies applauded.

Zhang He, who was on the lookout, dressed in white clothes and white armor, was even more heroic, seeing the meritorious service of the Bingzhou army, his heart was also eager, and he bowed to Yuan Shao, who was sitting on the couch, and said: "Wenhou is prestigious, and the momentum of the army is solidified, but after all, it is the army of the state...... He is willing to lead the elite of Jizhou, attack the left flank, and do not let the people of Jizhou concentrate on the front. ”

Zhang He expected that with the lord's good temperament, he would gladly accept it, but unexpectedly, Yuan Shao raised his hand and pressed it down: "If you are a little quiet, there will be a time to beat the thief." Tian Fengdao, a strategist kneeling on the soft seat on the right side, said, "Yuan Hao, is the hour coming?" ”

Tian Feng looked up at the wind and direction of Daxu, leaned less, and nodded slowly: "Within half an hour, the time will change, and the lord can adjust his troops." ”

Yuan Shao smiled with satisfaction, took out an order arrow, and handed it to the herald: "Order and state pastor Gaogan, do your best to the soldiers of the right battalion, and within half an hour, you must be ready to attack." ”

Ma Han quickly sensed the movement of the Yuan army, and in the rear of their position, a large number of Yuan troops quietly poured out, without a banner, obviously not wanting to attract the attention of the Montenegrin army.

Xia Houlan also noticed it, and whispered to Ma Han: "No, what is Yuan Jun trying to do?" All or nothing. ”

Ma Han was also confused, Yuan Shao used soldiers, just like his people, he always liked the right and not surprised, paid attention to the dignified formation, and defeated the opponent head-on. And this kind of increase in troops is not a miracle soldier, it will soon be discovered by the Montenegrin coalition army, and it will not receive the effect of a surprise soldier, which one is this singing?

Soon, Ma Han and Xiahou Lan knew what medicine Yuan Shao was selling in the gourd.

At noon, the wind came from the east, and the clouds were thick on the horizon, obscuring the scorching sun. At first, it was just the branches and leaves, but gradually, the wind became stronger and stronger, carrying the sand and gravel to the west, and the soldiers could not open their eyes wherever they passed.

Yuan's army had its back to the south and west, and was in the upper hand, while the Montenegrin coalition army was terrible, and it was blown by the wind and sand and did not dare to raise its head, and its formation wavered. The Tu Ge, Karasuma and other Hu riders on the left and right wings spread out in all directions and no longer gathered.

On the lookout, Yuan Shaoteng stood up and laughed loudly: "God help the lonely!" Yuan Hao is worthy of being a national scholar who knows astronomy and geography. Command the whole army to charge and annihilate the Black Mountain thieves! ”

As a top strategist, Tian Feng's stargazing and astrometry is a necessary skill, but with his astronomical calculation skills, he may not be able to deduce that the sky will change from time to time today. The most important thing is that he also summoned a number of local villagers last night to corroborate them, and finally confirmed that there will be windy weather today, and it is the most unexpectedly southeasterly wind.

Now, the gale is coming as scheduled, and Yuan Jun has been waiting for this opportunity for a long time. There were horns and whistling sounds, and Yuan Jun was like a torrent that opened the floodgates, pouring towards the opposite side.

This time, all the sergeants were going into battle. Ma Han and others are no exception.

Ma Han and his entourage wrapped their faces in black cloth to protect them from wind and sand, and many Yuan soldiers did the same. Although they are leeward, but the sky is full of dust, regardless of the leeward wind, they have to eat dust, the difference is only in eating more and eating less, whether they can open their eyes.

With the help of the wind, Yuan Jun seemed to have wings, more than 10,000 people. The sky is overwhelming, like a colony of ants out of the hole, densely surging and swooping.

The Montenegrin coalition did not have any clever strategists, and there was no way to know about this vision, and it was already in chaos. As soon as the two armies came into contact, blood rained down, and most of the people who fell down with wails were the Montenegrin army. Moreover, Yuan's army has quietly increased its troops, and its strength has significantly surpassed that of the Montenegrin coalition army. In the case of God's help. The Montenegrin coalition army suffered a fatal blow, and the army of nearly 10,000 was divided into more than a dozen large and small pieces, each fighting on its own. At stake.

After the big battle, Ma Han, Guan Hai, Xiahou Lan, wolf riders, eagle slaves and others gathered together. The Ten Wolf Riders formed a circle, firmly protecting the Eagle Slave and his cage. Then they followed their city guards and ran towards the mound of a sparse jungle to the north.

As soon as they ran out of the chaotic military formation, a large number of cavalry rushed from the flank. Almost didn't knock over Ma Han and the others.

Just when more than ten people dodged left and right in the chaotic herd, the general of this cavalry galloped over, it was Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi pointed at the whip in disgust: "Kill all these deserters, and use military justice." Then he whipped the horse and walked away.

The cavalry group immediately rushed out of the eight horsemen, raised their spears and swords and slashed at Ma Yan and the others.

The wolf-tooth flying warriors did not stop, and they all showed the city with their eyes.

Ma Han didn't look back, raised his arms and raised his palms, and slammed down. He didn't make any sound, but the instructions for the action were very clear. The wolf-tooth flying warriors picked up their bows and drew arrows together, listened to the sound of hooves approaching, and then counted one, two, and three silently in their hearts! He turned his head and raised his bow and arrows, almost without aiming, and the ten strings rang out with a bang.

Puff puff puff!

Six cavalrymen fell in response, and the remaining two were a few steps behind, and they had to be covered by the robes in front of them, and they were lucky enough to escape, and their faces turned white with horror. Qi Qile horse, about to escape, two arrows flew over, and the two Yuan cavalry dismounted.

Ma Han and Xiahou Lan calmly collected their bows and said lightly: "There are black mountain thieves who don't clean up, they want to find death." Walk! ”

Throwing down the corpses, more than a dozen people rushed up the mound, burrowed into the woods, and disappeared.

The wind howled outside the forest, and the sound of killing shook the sky, but the forest was silent, and from time to time it could be seen that there were stragglers fleeing into the woods. This forest is quite big, as long as those deserters don't rush to within a hundred steps of Ma Han and the others, Ma Han doesn't care, but if you don't know whether you are alive or dead, you have to come over to join in the fun, a burst of random arrows, so that you have no chance to escape.

Ma Han crouched in the forest, looking at the wind and sand outside the forest, feeling overwhelmed, it seems that the ancient generals, not only to understand geography, but also to understand astronomy! Even if the main general doesn't understand, it doesn't matter, at least you have to have someone around you who understands, otherwise, look at the Black Mountain Army, it will be the end.

Well, speaking of which, I don't have a strategist by my side yet. However, in the opinion of the family of the Three Kingdoms era, with such a background, it is very difficult to get a strategist, even if it is a poor scholar.

Suddenly, Xiahou Lan beside him said softly: "It's raining...... But it's not big. ”

Ma Han looked up, and the raindrops, through the branches and leaves, hit his face, the raindrops were sparse, and the wind gradually eased. Through the not dense foliage, you can see that the dense clouds in the sky have been blown away, and the clouds have stopped raining. In the middle of summer in July, it is not uncommon for this kind of strange weather when the wind suddenly blows and the wind blows, but in the end it is just a sprinkler of water.

Ma Han nodded to the Eagle Slave. The eagle slave immediately lifted the black cloth, revealing a huge eagle cage, and reached out to catch the letter eagle. This goshawk has been imprisoned extremely impatiently, and when it sees its master, it cheers for a long time.

"If there is no accident, the defeat of the Montenegrin coalition is decided, and it is the right time to attack the nine gates at this time." Ma Han nodded to the Eagle Slave.

The eagle slave bowed down to receive the order, stuffed the paper roll that had been prepared long ago into a small wooden tube, firmly blocked it with a wooden stopper, fixed it on the eagle's foot, and then fed a piece of fresh meat, and with a shake of the arm, the goshawk fluttered out through the forest, flapping its wings into the sky. Circling for half a turn, it flew northwest.

According to Ma Han's plan, the next thing is to stay here quietly and wait for the battle to end. But at this moment, a loud roar suddenly came from outside the forest: "Hugh has left the puppet state Mu Yishou!" ”

Hey! Yishou fled here? Moreover, the roar is clearly high.

Ma Han gestured to everyone, and everyone covered their faces with cloth towels and hurried towards the edge of the woods. (To be continued......)
