"The lord asked us to cross the Yellow River north, attack Liyang in Jizhou, peep into Yecheng, and gain a firm foothold on the north bank of the Yellow River."

Zhou Yafu of Puyang City in Dongjun had 40,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, mainly infantry, and a small number of cavalry.

He received an order from Chutian to go north to Jizhou.

A legion will definitely not be able to occupy Jizhou, and Chutian's order is only to ask Zhou Yafu to capture Liyang.

Liyang is located north of the Yellow River, only a few days away from Yecheng, and occupying Yecheng is equivalent to planting a nail in Zhao Long's forces, making Zhao Long uncomfortable.

Du Ruhui carefully looked at Chu Tian's arrangement for Zhou Yafu's army, and couldn't help but move: "The lord's arrangement is very good. Liyang was close to the Yellow River, so it could be supplied by water and reinforcements could be dispatched. Now, taking advantage of the turmoil in Jizhou, 100,000 troops are stationed in Liyang, and Liyang can be used as the center to drive the entire defense line and turn the passive into the active. In the future Northern Expedition, the difficulty will be reduced by fifty percent. ”

Zhou Yafu nodded.

Only Li Guang frowned, what was Du Ruhui talking about?

However, Li Guang does not need to be responsible for strategy, as long as he is at the tactical level, he can trap the battle, cut the generals, and take the lead.

So Zhou Yafu left Cheng Yu to guard Puyang, and then personally commanded the army, using a ferry to cross the Yellow River north and attack Jizhou.

On the battlefield of Yuzhou, Chutian ordered Dian Wei to bring a handsome flag to attract the attention of the ambush soldiers.

Le Yi deliberately let the soldiers move loosely, causing flaws in the handsome flag.

About 10,000 soldiers crossed the river, and there were still more than 100,000 soldiers in the rear, and a dangerous situation appeared in which they were half-crossed.

"I didn't expect Yanzhou Mu to be so careless that he dared to take the lead in crossing the river, and the victory or defeat was only between a surprise attack."

Qin Qiong clenched the spear in his hand, feeling uneasy in his heart.

Chu Tian has a strong foundation and can lose two or three times, but Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin can't afford to lose. Compared to Chu Tian, they were too poor.

"There's nothing to say, just go straight on!"

Cheng Biting Jin shook the giant axe.

Qin Qiong also put his mind down.

The Yanzhou army of 10,000 people who crossed the river, they wanted to provide open space for the follow-up troops to cross the river, so they marched forward, symbolizing that the handsome banner where Chutian was also advancing.

"It's noon!"

When Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin approached Shuai Qi, they thought that the best time for an assault had come!

A thousand high-ranking cavalry slaughtered from the ambush site, quickly adjusting the formation between marches, and the horses changed from trotting to galloping!

"Sure enough, there is an ambush, and the lord is really a god and a man."

As Chu Tian guessed, there was a second ambush near here.

Even Le Yi couldn't help but look up to Chu Tian.

Under the command of Le Yi, the originally slightly loose Yanjia soldiers formed a halberd formation, and the long halberd pointed straight ahead. Joan of Arc commanded the Macedonian spearmen of the First Servant Legion in front of the Yanjia Warriors, thickening the phalanx!

In addition to the phalanx of pikes, scattered carriages formed obstacles to block the onslaught of the opposing cavalry.

A row of Yanjia soldiers in the rear threw bows and arrows, and the rain of arrows fell to the ground, forming a drop of arrows.

By looking at the area of the arrow with the naked eye, it is basically possible to determine whether the enemy is in range or not.

"Jianyan crossbowman, prepare!"

Liang Hongyu divided the three thousand Jianyan crossbowmen into three rows, each row of one thousand, and the crossbowmen who were on guard in advance quickly assembled.

Seeing Yan Jiashi shoot a rain of tentative arrows, Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin suddenly felt bad.

It is obvious that the other party has been prepared for a long time and is waiting for their ambush to appear!

A thousand high-rank heavy cavalry had already begun to accelerate, and the plain terrain in the middle of the swampy terrain was narrow, and it was difficult to turn back for a while!

The war horse galloped, and Qin Qiong and Cheng Biting Jin's two hundred Xuanjia troops served as spearheads!

Qin Qiong gritted his teeth, there was no turning back now, as long as he rushed into the opponent's army formation and killed the enemy's commander, he could win a big victory!

"Shoot the arrows!"

The first row of Jianyan crossbowmen fired a volley, and a thousand crossbow arrows broke through the air!

The arrow collided with the armor, and the spark disappeared in an instant!

One thousand Jianyan crossbowmen, one salvo could not cause much damage to the two hundred Xuanjia cavalry, only a few Xuanjia army's war horses were shot, overturning the Xuanjia cavalry on horseback.

"It's worthy of the Xuanjia cavalry!"

Liang Hongyu was not discouraged, the Xuanjia cavalry was a ninth-order heavy cavalry, and its defense was extremely high. They can even charge head-on with a rain of arrows!

The long sword in Liang Hongyu's hand fell, and the second round of crossbow arrows was shot!

This time, due to the close distance, more than a dozen Xuanjia cavalry or their war horses were shot and killed and lost their combat effectiveness, while the high-level cavalry equipment in the rear was obviously inferior to the Xuanjia cavalry, and dozens of cavalry were shot!

Third round of crossbow bolts!

At a price not too heavy, the Xuanjia Army was forced to assault the Shuai Banner head-on!

Surrounded by swampy terrain, there is no way back for either the attacker or the defender!

The armored cavalry crashed into the Macedonian pikes phalanx in the front row!

The extra-long spear pierced the armor of the Xuanjia cavalry, and it was difficult to inflict fatal damage on it.

The armored cavalry smashed through row after row of Macedonian spearmen and drove straight in!

The Macedonian spearmen barely killed the horses of the Xuanjia cavalry, and the damage to the Xuanjia cavalry was still insufficient.

If it is the Macedonian spear phalanx commanded by Alexander the Great himself, Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin's Xuanjia cavalry will not be unscrupulous, mainly because Joan of Arc is not a perfect fit for the Macedonian spear phalanx, and can only give full play to part of the strength of the Macedonian phalanx. Otherwise, the Macedonian phalanx, in a head-to-head confrontation, had an advantage over the cavalry.

In addition to the hero's bonus, in addition, the thickness of the Macedonian phalanx will also seriously affect the defense of the Macedonian phalanx.

"It is worthy of being the Xuanjia cavalry, so to speak, the power of Wei Chigong's Xuanjia cavalry should be almost the same as that of Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin's Xuanjia cavalry...... No, with my 'Blue Wolf White Deer', 'Sealed Wolf Juxu', and the addition of three all-army halos, Wei Chigong's Xuanjia cavalry will be stronger. ”

In fact, Chu Tian, who was still on the other side of the river, witnessed the devastating momentum of the Xuanjia cavalry when they attacked the (pseudo) Macedonian phalanx head-on, and he couldn't help but boil with blood.

The ninth-order Xuanjia Army is really worth the money, and it is worthy of being Tang Taizong's trump card army!

However, Chu Tian was not envious, because he had 400 such cavalry, which was twice as many as the Xuanjia army on the opposite side, which seemed to be less than 200 people!

Chu Tian never used his Xuanjia Army and the Knights of the Round Table, they were the hole cards in the decisive battle.

"Joan of Arc's Macedonian phalanx is only a false Macedonian phalanx, and she is more suitable to command the French army. If the Xuanjia army encounters the Yanjia, which is also a heavy armor class, it is estimated that the number of casualties will increase. ”

Summer Liang accompanied Chu Tian and observed the skirmishes on the other side of the river.

It's really a hidden god of war.

Chu Tian had long discovered that Xia Liang had a talent for this.

Talent is such a thing, mysterious and mysterious, some people can achieve something that others can't achieve in a lifetime with a little learning.

Sure enough, when Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin led the elite cavalry to cut through the Macedonian phalanx, they were faced with a halberd held by thousands of Yan armor soldiers!

Le Yi's Yan Armor has both offense and defense, and he is a heavy armor class, so his defense is very high, plus Le Yi has an attack bonus, Yan Jia's attack is also fierce!

This means that when Yan Jia faces the heavy cavalry, he can not only carry it, but also fight back!

The cavalry of the Xuanjia Army had no way to retreat, so they could only continue to charge.

After the blockage of the Macedonian phalanx, the speed of the cavalry of the Xuanjia Army has a downward trend, and Le Yi and Yan Jia are a perfect fit, because Yan Jia is a class of troops created for Le Yi!

Qin Qiong and Cheng Zhijie felt tremendous pressure, unlike the half-hung Macedonian phalanx commanded by Joan of Arc, Yan Jia's combat power was very strong!

The cavalry of the Xuanjia Army broke into the Yan Armor, and the first row of Yan Jia still couldn't stop the expensive ninth-order cavalry, and it was quickly broken!

But Yanjia also brought casualties to the cavalry of the Xuanjia Army, and even the cavalry of the Xuanjia Army was pecked down by the halberd, and the halberd stabbed the war horse to death!

Rows of swallow armor blocked the Xuanjia cavalry assault. If the Xuanjia cavalry wants to cut through their formation, they will have to pay the corresponding price!

Yanjia has the soul of easy water, the momentum of the wind and the cold water, and will not retreat!

The Jianyan crossbowmen in the rear took advantage of the delay of the Xuanjia cavalry to reload the crossbow arrows, and specially shot the war horses and facades of the opposing cavalry!

Qin Qiong held a gun and went into battle, picking dozens of Yan armor in a row, he was brave, and personally opened the way for the Xuanjia Army!

"Look at Grandpa's axe!"

Cheng Biting Jin shouted, and the giant axe cut off a Yan Jia and a person with armor!

The two fierce generals cooperated, barely broke through the Yan armor with less than two thousand people, and approached Shuai Qi!

General Fierce will play a game-changing role in this modest encounter!

Le Yi saw that the opponent's fierce generals killed the elite Yanjia under his command in a row, and said to Wei Chigong and Dian Wei: "There are two generals, go and take the other party's head." ”

Wei Chigong was the first to respond, and said to Dian Wei: "I'll go and get the head with the gun, and you go and get the head with the axe!" ”

"Your enemies are stronger, and they are unfair to me."

Although Dian Wei is a little sluggish, he is not completely brainless.

"I'll go to the battle first, you look at the battle flag!"

Wei Chigong didn't wait for Dian Wei's response, took the initiative to drag the iron whip into battle, and went straight to Qin Qiong, as for Cheng Biting Jin, he handed it over to Dian Wei to deal with.

Qin Qiong was struggling to get close to Shuai Qi, still thinking that it was where Yanzhou Mu Chutian was.

Suddenly, a rider forced the surrounding armor soldiers away, holding a heavy iron whip and smashing it!

Qin Qiong's current weapon is a spear, and with the help of force, he unloaded the iron whip to the side, during which the strength of the iron whip surprised Qin Qiong.

The black-faced fierce general on the opposite side was also surprised: "You are not bad, don't you expect to be tricked?" ”

After Wei Chigong's confirmation, Qin Qiong already knew that he had been tricked: "If I kill you, I can also relieve the siege of Yuzhou!" ”

"Let's see if you're capable!"

Wei Chigong attacked Qin Qiong with three whips, each whip roared and smashed at Qin Qiong!

Qin Qiong responded to the battle with a spear, attacking instead of defending, the gun was like a swimming dragon, patting Lieutenant Chi Gong, and Yu Chi Gong only felt the internal organs in his body churning.

"Come again!"

Wei Chigong realized that he seemed to be inferior to Qin Qiong, but his arrogance did not allow him to show weakness to Qin Qiong, so he continued to attack Qin Qiong!

The two of them fought with each other, although Qin Qiong's spear did not dare to be hit by the heavy iron whip, but the spear was a long weapon, one inch long and one inch strong. Qin Qiong, still have the upper hand!

"General Dian Wei, you go and help Wei Chi Gong."

Le Yi saw that Wei Chi Gong was a little struggling, so he sent Dian Wei.

"Hmph, the lord's recruitment of this black-faced general is not as useful as my Dian Wei."

In order to prove that he was qualified to become Chu Tian's first guard, Dian Wei fought with a double halberd.

These two big iron halberds are only king-level weapons, but Dian Wei has a huge force, which is enough to exert the destructive power of the weapon!

"General Huaxiong, you go and stop the enemy general with an axe."

Le Yi sent Huaxiong to stop Cheng Biting Jin.

"The last general will take his head!"

Hua Xiong went to fight with Cheng Biting Jin with a knife.

"Little rabbit, come to die? Look at my first axe! ”

Cheng bites Jin to snatch people first, Xuanhua axe slashes, roars through the air, and Huaxiong avoids an axe dangerously!

The red tassel on the helmet has been cut off by Cheng Biting Jin!

Hua Xiong realized that he didn't seem to be the opponent of this reckless man.

At this time, a holy flag stabbed obliquely, and Cheng Biting Jin used the Xuanhua axe to block the sharp spearhead!

The spearhead of the Holy Banner rubbed violently on the Xuanhua Axe, making a piercing metallic sound, and a scratch visible to the naked eye appeared on the Xuanhua Axe!

"What a horrible......"

Cheng Yanjin couldn't help but be shocked when he saw a blonde-haired female military general attacking with a holy flag.

Fortunately, he returned the axe in time, otherwise if he was struck on his body by the holy flag, Cheng Yanjin would probably lose a layer of flesh.

"Let's strike together!"

Hua Xiong is no longer the second fierce general in the world under the Tiger Prison. After staying in Chutian's forces for a long time, he found that he was not only far from Lu Bu, but also had a large number of fierce generals in the middle!

He, Hua Xiong, is just the unit of measurement of the top masters.

If it weren't for Chutian's intention to let Hua Xiong brush up his exploits in the Battle of Yuzhou, he wouldn't have had a chance to appear.

In order to save his life and be invincible, Hua Xiong chose to join forces with Joan of Arc.

Isn't it just that there are more people and fewer people are bullied?

Hua Xiong, he's happy.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

After Hua Xiong knew that there was Joan of Arc in the battle, he had no fear of Cheng Biting Jin, but kept swinging the big knife and swore to kill Cheng Biting Jin!

Joan of Arc swept through the array with the Holy Banner in her hand.

Her banner is very deceptive, it looks like a flag that can be considered a work of art, but its main body is a spear of royal quality, which is not far behind other imperial weapons.

"More to bully less, not heroes too!"

Cheng Biting Jin's force was not at the level of Qin Qiong and Wei Chigong, Hua Xiong and Joan of Arc joined forces, he was not an opponent, so he scolded and scolded.

"Lao Tzu likes to bully more and less!"

Huaxiong also tore his face, as long as he can win.

On the other side, Dian Wei held two big iron halberds and said to Wei Chigong: "You are not his opponent, go down." ”

Wei Chigong was immediately dissatisfied: "Are you his opponent?!" ”

"You don't know until you try!"

Dian Wei's thick arms and muscles burst out, clinging to the muscles like a dragon, and the two big iron halberds have the potential of thunder!

Qin Qiong suddenly felt the pressure, Dian Wei's force was really above Wei Chigong at this time, if one was not good, he would be seriously injured by him!

The spears and halberds were fast and powerful, and the horses under their crotches seemed to be unable to withstand the fight between the two fierce generals for a long time and kept neighing.

"Mu Guiying, you lead the Tiger Ben army to cross the river and harvest the heads."

Chutian sent Mu Guiying, who was currently in command of the Tiger Ben Army.

The Tiger Ben Army consumed a batch in the national war, but in the main world, Xia Liang added another batch according to the plan, and the level was still relatively low, so Chu Tian asked Mu Guiying to go up to train the troops.

Taking Qin Qiong and Cheng Biting Jin to brush up on their experience, it is estimated that few princes in the Eastern Han Dynasty would do this......
