Chapter 478: Stormy (13)
Every time a soldier is sacrificed, Guo Yan feels extremely heartache, the Xiliang Army selects soldiers and the Central Plains princes see the difference, these soldiers are all selected from many people, strictly trained, equipped with haode weapons, an ordinary Wu Chang Shi Chang can definitely be qualified for the post of captain in the princes' army, the combat effectiveness of the Xiliang Army is terrifying.
Ci is not in charge of the army, Guo Yan knows this truth better than anyone else, he has been able to get to this point, it is made of white bones, and there is absolutely no lie, even Jia Rong has to admit that his position as a general is forged by countless brothers with blood.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, Guo Jia was at the bottom, his expression was awe-inspiring, and he said slowly: "In recent days, the princes' army has repeatedly attacked, and the soldiers in the army have also suffered some casualties, but the princes' army has also paid a painful price. ”
Attacked like this for several days, the morale of the Xiliang army is not very high, fortunately, Guo Jia got along with the strategy of hanging cowhide on the city, so that the offensive of the princes was temporarily slowed down, at this time, let the general lead the soldiers out of the customs and the princes' army A small fight, which can make the soldiers more relaxed to face the siege of the princes' army, with the combat power of the Xiliang army, Guo Jia is very confident that the victory will be achieved.
"Humble and willing to lead troops!" Zhao Yun hugged his fists.
"With Zilong in battle, our army will definitely be able to win." The cavalry in Zhao Yun's hands is a soldier separated from the blood guard, with strong combat effectiveness, thinking that Jia Rong was able to win a big victory in the grassland back then, so that the Xianbei wolf army was wiped out, and the blood guard was indispensable, these cavalry were very low-key on weekdays, and they on the battlefield were like bloodthirsty demons, with the scimitar in their hands, the war horse under their bodies, and harvested the lives of the enemy, otherwise they would not have been entrusted with the important task of protecting Jia Rong.
The Xiliang army went out of the customs to challenge, Yuan Shao frowned, the attack in the past few days, the losses of the princes' army were not small, although the Xiliang army was suppressed in a short time, but because of a small strategy, the situation was reversed again, at this time the Xiliang army went out of the customs to challenge, its meaning was obvious, let a victory, to suppress the morale of the princes' army, so that the morale of the defenders was even higher.
"There is no room for loss in this battle, Hangu Pass is the best pass in the world, it is extremely difficult to break, I don't know who is willing to fight?" Yuan Shao said in a heavy tone.
The princes in the tent are silent, listening to Yuan Shao's tone, they want to defeat these Xiliang troops, the Xiliang iron cavalry has been dominating the world for many years, and it seems that they have never heard of defeat, and the princes have tried to train their elite cavalry again and again, and the Yellow Turban Army has also won the victory, but they dare not easily take out the duel with the Xiliang army, the infantry can be recruited again, but the cavalry can not be formed overnight, each cavalry is the blood of the princes.
There are few horses in the Central Plains, not as rich as the Xiliang Army, and even has its own horse farm on the grassland.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a critical moment for the war between our army and the Xiliang army, I hope you can dare to give up, only in this way can the coalition army be expected to come to Chang'an City."
Cao Cao's face changed for a long time and said: "The Xiliang army is all cavalry, there are still some cavalry in our army, willing to go to the first battle, and the subsequent battle, I hope you don't hide your secrets, defeat the Xiliang army, it is beneficial to us, I believe you all know." ”
Yuan Shao breathed a long sigh of relief, if Cao Cao didn't step forward, I am afraid that he would reveal the killer weapon of the Yuan army, the Euphorbia, the Cao army can win many battles in the Central Plains, and the elite of the soldiers under his command is naturally needless to say.
"Meng Dejun is here, and you will go with me to watch the battle." After Yuan Shao's words were finished, he led the princes to get up and leave.
The general who led the army was Xiahou Dun, the fierce general of the Cao army, who was famous for his bravery in the Cao army, and was the first soldier in every battle, not afraid of arrows, and had a lot of prestige among the soldiers.
"Zhao Yun, look at how Lao Tzu takes your life!" Xiahou Dun raised the big sword in his hand, and the five hundred cavalry behind him came to an abrupt halt.
On martial arts, the cavalry of the Cao army is also selected from the army of 100,000, each cavalry is strong in martial arts, superb in horsemanship, on the war horse, the Cao army war horse asked himself not to lose to the Xiliang army, which is also the reason why Cao Cao dared to provoke the Xiliang cavalry.
Any elite soldier cannot be achieved by training alone, but needs to be constantly tempered by war, and Cao Cao deliberately regarded the Xiliang cavalry as a whetstone for the progress of Cao's cavalry.
The Xiliang Iron Rider holds a scimitar in his hand, and so does the Cao Army, the Xiliang Army is wearing armor, and the Cao Army also has it, and the two sides must be an earth-shattering battle.
When Zhao Yun saw this team, the expression on his face turned solemn, from the body of the Cao army's cavalry, he felt the breath of death, just like facing the wolf army on the grassland in the past, the wolf army did not have stirrups and horseshoes, but this cavalry team did, but in this way, it aroused Zhao Yun's heart even more war, and if you want to use the cavalry to regret the Xiliang army, you will die happily.
"Will you be able to get a name?" Zhao Yun held a gun and hugged his fist.
"Xiahou Dun!"
"Kill!" Zhao Yun waved his spear, five hundred cavalry rushed towards the Cao army in a goose-shaped formation, under the wild goose array, if the opponent's cavalry is not well-trained, the opponent's formation can be completely dispersed in one round, the cavalry is not as easy to control as the infantry, and if you want to put out the formation, it is difficult to achieve without a hard training.
Xiahou Dun's expression was awe-inspiring, and he immediately crossed his sword and shouted: "Kill!" ”
The cavalry's equestrian skills are exquisite, and they are protected by armor, and the damage caused by the rain of arrows is very small, and if you want to achieve victory, there is only a confrontation between the cavalry and the cavalry, which tests the real combat effectiveness of a cavalry, as well as the cooperation of the whole team, both of which are indispensable.
In the Chinese army, Yuan Shao saw the cavalry of the Cao army, and his eyes were also bright, he didn't want to have a cavalry belonging to the Yuan army, but the consumption of cavalry was staggering, it was hard to imagine that Jia Rong could afford to raise thousands of cavalry in the barren land of Liangzhou, and build Chang'an into a flower.
"The fierce general of the Mahavira Army!" Yuan Shao sighed.
The two cavalry teams quickly collided with each other, whether they were male or female, and the conclusion could only be made after they fought.
In the Central Plains, the cavalry is almost invincible, anyway, the infantry does not dare to collide with the war horse, so the cavalry only needs to wave the weapon in their hands and harvest the enemy's life, but when encountering the Xiliang army, this kind of thing is destined not to happen, every dodge action and killing action is strictly trained, and the princes can follow the equipment of the Xiliang cavalry, but they don't know the method of training the cavalry in the Xiliang army.
Xiahou Dun rushed to the forefront, with the big knife in his hand, he rushed to kill the two Xiliang cavalry, but he felt a lot of pressure, the martial arts of these two soldiers were not weak, what made Xiahou Dun frightened was the cooperation between the cavalry, he never thought that the cavalry could take care of each other on the high-speed galloping horse, just like the infantry, as if the cavalry in front of him had done it.
In a confrontation, Xiahoudun felt that his cavalry was inferior to the other party, as the so-called painting tiger skin is difficult to draw bones, imitation is always imitation, for the essence, there is no own experience.
Killed the first Xiliang cavalry, in the moment when the big knife was stagnant, there were three weapons beckoning towards Xiahou Dun, if it weren't for his strong martial arts and strong adaptability, I am afraid that in the first round of killing, the nest would die.
Even the fierce general Xiahou Dun had such pressure, not to mention the cavalry of the Cao army, they were surprised to find that it was also a scimitar, after the collision, the other party was intact, but there was a gap in their own blade, according to this situation, it would not take long, I am afraid that the weapon could not be used.
After a burst of killing, the Xiliang cavalry lost more than 50 people, and the Cao army lost more than 100 cavalry.
Xiahou Dun has always been a person who does not admit defeat, seeing this situation, he resolutely killed the Xiliang cavalry, waving a big sword, the sword flashed, and no one was invincible for a while.
If you look carefully, you will find that when the Xiliang cavalry attacked, they maintained a relationship with each other, one side was in trouble, and there would be support from Pao Ze quickly, and a Cao cavalry cavalry might face the attack of two to three Xiliang cavalry at the same time, under such an attack, unless it was extremely strong in martial arts, it was difficult to survive on the battlefield.
Zhao Yun shook his gun, took away the life of a Cao army cavalry, jumped his horse and raised his gun, and killed Xiahou Dun, the swords and guns intersected, sparks flew everywhere, Xiahou Dun was secretly frightened, the general of the Xiliang Army who looked weak was so strong, he took his own knife, for strength, Xiahou Dun was confident that it was difficult for anyone to reach in the Cao army, the generals fought together, and the soldiers kept fighting.
The rumbling war drums sounded on the pass, and the Xiliang cavalry was shocked, and they fought towards the Cao army.
The scimitar in the hands of a Cao army cavalry was cut off, and he fell from his horse to death in disbelief, and after a long time of fighting, the weapons in the hands of the Cao army soldiers could not withstand such consumption, revealing deficiencies, and every cavalry in the blood guard was a character who came out of the sea of corpses and blood, not to mention shouting on the battlefield, with the lives of at least ten cavalrymen in his hands, rich combat experience, and sophisticated means, the Cao army cavalry was like an apprentice who had just debuted in front of them, how to be an opponent.
Cao Cao's face was gloomy, and the cavalry he relied on was still defeated in the hands of the Xiliang army, and he said in a low voice: "Mingjin withdraws his troops!" ”
Under the leadership of Zhao Yun, the Xiliang army took the opportunity to cover up and kill for a while, and returned victorious, but there was no joy in the expression, the Cao army lost three hundred people, and the Xiliang army also paid the price of more than one hundred people.
In any case, in this battle, the Xiliang army won after all, the coalition army was defeated after all, and the most elite cavalry was still defeated in the hands of the Xiliang army.
This result was naturally expected by Yuan Shao, the Xiliang army, which could dominate the world, could not even defeat the Cao army, so how could it sweep the grassland.
"Meng De doesn't have to be frustrated, the Xiliang army also paid the price of more than 100 people, Meng De's merits will be recorded for the time being, and after breaking Chang'an, he will be rewarded for his merits." Yuan Shao said with relief.
