Seeing that the situation was not good, Yuan Shu, who hurriedly drove back at the first time, saw that the soldiers under his command could not stop the wolf cavalry, and Lu Bu, who was in the lead, was even more unstoppable, and he was less than fifty steps away from him.

Suddenly, Yuan Shu's face turned pale with fright, and he shouted: "Come on, stop him for me, stop him!" ”

At this time, Ji Ling, the general under Yuan Shu, appeared beside him, which made Yuan Shu's heart feel a little calmer.

However, seeing that Lu Bu rode alone and wantonly killed the soldiers under his command, as if he had entered a no-man's land, Yuan Shu's heart that had just been put down rose to his throat again, and he shouted loudly: "Shoot Lu Bu quickly、、、, shoot Lu Bu quickly, shoot Lu Bu -- !" Yuan Shu, who was panicked, shouted loudly and swallowed his saliva. He was so frightened that he didn't care about the lives of his soldiers at all, and brazenly ordered the arrows to be released.

At this moment, Ji Ling, who stood up in front of Yuan Shu, stepped forward to dissuade him, but he was full of fear of the incomparable Lu Bu, so he was silent.

"Woohoo!" After receiving Yuan Shu's order to release the arrows again, the tense bowstrings of the crossbowmen who were already impatient were loosened, and Huo Ran fired thousands of arrows at once. However, in this round of arrow rain, there were only a handful of arrows that really shot at Lu Bu, because Lu Bu was too close to Yuan Shu, and if he accidentally injured Yuan Shu, the consequences would be unimaginable. It was the crossbowmen who were all smart, or at least good at self-preservation, that they all avoided Lu Bu and turned their arrows at the wolf cavalry who were fighting with the pikemen.

"Puff, puff -- ah??????"

Suddenly, the sound of sharp arrows breaking through the body burst out. One after another, endlessly; The terrible screams were extremely high-pitched and sharp, and seemed to be full of endless reproaches and resentment. Enduring, straight into the sky. These innocent souls obviously came from Yuan Jun.

Under this wave of random arrows, thousands of Yuan soldiers were killed by their own arrows and died innocently, while the real target of the attack, the wolf cavalry, suffered few casualties, with less than 1,000 casualties. However, nearly 10,000 soldiers of the two armies died under this round of random arrows, which means that the archery skills of the crossbowmen are very accurate. Each arrow can kill one person, but unfortunately more than eighty percent of the people they shoot are their own soldiers, which is equivalent to cannibalism.

Because the Yuan army is ten times larger than the wolf cavalry army. At this moment, the Yuan army strangled with the wolf cavalry army numbered tens of thousands. And it is relatively concentrated, while the wolf cavalry soldiers are relatively scattered, with an average of no less than five Yuan soldiers around each wolf cavalry, and the targets shot by the crossbowmen are concentrated in densely populated areas. And so it goes. Under the volley of 10,000 arrows, the casualties of the soldiers of the Yuan army far exceeded that of the wolf cavalry. As a result, it was several times larger than the wolf cavalry, and suffered heavy casualties.

"Ugh! This?????? It's all rubbish, it's all a bunch of rubbish! ”

Seeing the soldiers in front of him fall a large piece, Yuan Shu was overjoyed, but when he saw it, all the soldiers and horses under his command died, and the losses of the wolf cavalry army were not large. Suddenly, Yuan Shu was furious. scolded loudly, and the hideous expression seemed to be about to choose someone to devour. The gloomy eyes are not inferior to the fierce gods. However, the mistake had been made, and even if he had monstrous anger, it would be useless, so he could only swallow this evil breath alive, wave his hand and signal his soldiers to drive back again, and try to stay away from the killing god Lu Bu, so as not to endanger his own life.

Under the urging of Yuan Shu, the soldiers drove six horses and Luan to retreat two hundred paces in a row, until they retreated to the rear of the army, which was completely safe. At this point, Yuan Shufang sighed, and his hanging heart finally fell, and he was safe and sound, and he could watch the battle with peace of mind.

"Boom, boom, boom??????" Just as Yuan Shu was standing on the carriage and watching the battle, he faintly heard the roar of "rumbling" in his ears, and his feet shook slightly, so that his body was unstable, swaying left and right. He didn't care at this time, because he was frightened and too nervous, and he was dazed by the incompetence of the crossbowman, and his ears were still buzzing.

However, as the rumbling sound became louder and clearer, Yuan Shu's face suddenly became pale and pale, and his body was crooked, and he fell headlong on Luan's driver.

Yuan Shu, who fell on the carriage splint, didn't feel a trace of pain, muttering to himself, but he couldn't make a sound, but a little white foam overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

"陛xià, 陛xià??????" Ji Ling, who had been guarding Yuan Shu's side, discovered Yuan Shu's abnormality for the first time, and when he wanted to reach out to catch his fallen body, he was a step too slow, so that Yuan Shu fell headlong on the carriage, his forehead hit the edge of the car, and his head immediately broke and bled out. Immediately afterwards, I saw Yuan Shu twitching all over his body and foaming at the mouth, which frightened Ji Ling, and hurriedly held up Yuan Shu's upper body, and exclaimed: "Majesty, majesty, what's wrong with you?" Don't scare Weichen, the whole army of more than 100,000 horses are counting on His Majesty, you can't fall! As he spoke, Ji Ling, who was five big and three thick, actually cried with tears in his eyes.

It is not difficult to see that Ji Ling is really loyal to Yuan Shu, and it is not in vain that Yuan Shu has always valued him, appreciated him, and has always taken him by his side and relied on him as an arm.

Under Ji Ling's crying and shaking, Yuan Shu, who had fallen into a semi-comatose state, woke up and slowly opened his eyes. Looking at Ji Ling, who was in tears, Yuan Shu grabbed his hand and whispered with great difficulty: "Xiliang Tieqi is here, Li 、、、 Li Li is also here." The Xiliang Iron Cavalry has a large number of people, at least tens of thousands, and our army is probably not its opponent 、、、. The herald ordered 、、、 army to retreat and retreat to Shouchun City. After speaking intermittently, Yuan Shu looked at the sky with dull eyes, then rolled his eyes and fainted again.

Obviously, although Ji Ling was a general under Yuan Shu, he had stayed in the land of Huainan for most of his life, and he had no personal experience of the rumbling sound that filled his ears at this moment, and thought that this sound was caused by the battle between the two armies in front of him. But Yuan Shu is different. He had participated in many large-scale battles in the Central Plains in his early years, and was particularly sensitive to the sound of a large number of cavalry rushing, and he could accurately judge from the sound and body perception that tens of thousands of iron cavalry were rushing towards the battlefield from miles away, and concluded that these cavalry were the Xiliang iron cavalry under Li Li.

It's a pity that Yuan Shu is old after all, frail and emaciated, and can't stand the repeated fright, can't be happy and sad, and the love should not fluctuate too much, let alone the ups and downs. Otherwise, as now, you will be overly frightened, foaming at the mouth, and fainting.

??????“ Li Li's Xiliang Tie is here? Ji Ling groaned in a panic, and instinctively reached out to sense Yuan Shu's snort, knowing that he was only temporarily unconscious, and there was no worry about his life, so he immediately made up his mind.

He immediately handed over Yuan Shu to his soldiers, and instructed his soldiers to drive back to Shouchun immediately, and let the imperial doctor treat Yuan Shu. And he himself turned on his horse, and while ordering the armor soldier Mingjin to withdraw his troops, he led his own guards to rush into the front of the formation, trying to fight hard, wanting to kill Lu Bu before the arrival of Li Li's army, and get rid of this henchman for Yuan Shu.

In this way, Mingjin's collection of troops has become an effective way to gather men and horses, and then gather the strength of the whole army to eradicate Lu Bu and the wolf cavalry in one fell swoop. If one qiē shun lì, by the time Li Li led the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to arrive, it would be too late, and all they could get in the end was Lu Bu's headless corpse and the corpse remains of more than 10,000 wolf cavalry soldiers.

"Ding Ding Ding!"

The crisp and loud sound of gold spread throughout the battlefield, and the soldiers of the Yuan army on the periphery quickly gathered to the south of the Chinese army after hearing the sound, and invisibly formed a situation of encirclement of the wolf cavalry army that was struggling to fight again, and it was a superimposed layer of contraction, and the group was besieged.

"Ji Ling is here, Lu Buxiu is rampant!" Lu Bu, who was wielding a halberd to slash and kill the soldiers of the Yuan army, suddenly heard a loud shout, and then the soldiers of the Yuan army who were blocking in front of him quickly avoided both sides, which made Lu Bu's eyes suddenly brighten. Immediately afterward, Dan saw a burly general wielding a three-pointed and two-edged sword rushing towards him, followed by 3,000 cavalry.

Lu Bu recognized at a glance the general of the Yuan army who was holding a three-pointed and two-edged sword, which was Ji Ling, who was known as the first general under Yuan Shu's account. It is said that when Yuan Shu led his army to attack Liu Bei's army two years ago, Ji Ling fought with Guan Yu for more than 30 rounds without losing the upper hand. In that battle, it was Ji Ling who entangled Guan Yu, and Zhang Xun and Qiao Rui teamed up to drag Zhang Fei, which made Liu Bei isolated and defeated. In the end, Liu Bei's troops were defeated and fled, and the three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang were scattered, and they fled in panic.

It was that ambush battle that helped Lu Bu a lot, allowing him to easily occupy Xuzhou and occupy Liu Bei's lair. It was also that battle that made Ji Ling and Zhang Xun stand out and became the two most respected generals under Yuan Shu's account, and after Yuan Shu ascended the throne and became emperor, he named him two generals and commanded all the soldiers and horses under Yuan Shu's command. However, in terms of martial arts and fierceness, Ji Ling's bravery is still above Zhang Xun, and he can be said to be the first general under Yuan Shu's account.

Seeing Ji Ling riding his horse and killing the general, Lu Bu's face showed a strange smile. The reason why he could still laugh at this time was not only because he had met an opponent with extraordinary combat strength, but also because he also heard the sound of rumbling horses' hooves from behind him, and knew that it was Xiliang Iron Cavalry who came to the rescue.

It must be known that Yuan Shu can hear the sound of horses' hooves coming from Xiliang Tieqi, how can he Lu Bu not hear it? You must know that Lu Bu's best tactical method of life is to lead the cavalry to charge into battle, and he has been with horses for half his life, and he is extremely sensitive to the sound of horses' hooves. What's more, his martial arts are superb, although he doesn't dare to say that he sees six ways and listens to all directions, but he is also smarter than ordinary people; Even when he is under siege, his ability to listen to the wind and discern direction is far beyond ordinary people.

Therefore, Lu Bu discovered the sound of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry's rush earlier than Yuan Shu. Therefore, he was not in a hurry to break through, but tried to use himself and the wolf cavalry army as bait to drag Yuan Shu's army. After Li Li led the army to arrive, he could wave his army to kill and destroy most of Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses in one fell swoop. If this can be the case, then this expedition against Yuan Shu can be won safely, and the battle can be decided??????
