Chapter 637: Vine Armor Frustrates Guan Yu Up
When Chen Wu and Zhang Yan were fighting, they were injured by Zhang Yan with a secret weapon. When the soldiers rescued him, he was already poisoned and unconscious. Fortunately, Zhang Liao in the city saw that something was wrong, and immediately asked LΓΌ Meng to lead people to bring Chen Wu's troops back, so that the army did not lose too much. However, Zhang Yan's next tactics made Zhang Xiujun feel indignant, and as a result, the morale of the whole army did not fall but rose.
Chen Wu was poisoned by arrows, and there was no famous doctor in Pingchun City, so Zhang Liao asked Chen Wu to be sent back to Nanjun for treatment.
Early the next morning, Zhang Liao personally led the army out of the city and fought in front of Cao's military camp, but this time Zhang Yan let Zhang Liao scold how he scolded, but he didn't come out. Seeing this, Zhang Liao waved his army to attack for a while, and now the Cao battalion soldiers were tightly guarded, and there were many casualties after fighting, so he led the army back to the city.
After returning to the city, Zhang Liao summoned Zhou Yu, LΓΌ Meng, Wen Ping, and Wang Ping and Zhang Wei, who commanded the Wudang and Wuqian Flying Army, to discuss. I only heard Zhang Liao say in a hateful voice: "Zhang Yan is a thief, he is despicable, and he actually uses this as a means!" β
Wen Ping said strangely: "Although Zhang Yan is from a bandit, his methods have always been down-to-earth, how can he use a secret weapon when he is fighting now?" β
Zhou Yu pondered for a while, but said: "This must be taught by Guan Yu, thinking that it will frustrate the spirit of our army!" β
When Zhang Liao heard this, he shook his head and said, "Guan Yu is arrogant, and he will not use this strategy." β
Zhou Yu said: "Guan Yu doesn't need it, but Xu Shu will use it." Although Cao's army is attacking now, it is at a disadvantage, and it is normal to use some unusual means. Yesterday, Zilie was injured by a poisoned arrow, and the morale of our army did not drop but rose, but today the enemy army is holding on to the death, and our army cannot capture the enemy camp, and the morale has already dropped. Xu Shu's calculation is successful. β
Zhang Liao heard this, and after a deep groan, he glanced at Wang Ping and Zhang Wei, and said: "In this way, when Guan Yu's main force arrives, kill him with rattan armor soldiers for a while, so as to frustrate Guan Yu's spirit!" β
Zhou Yu and Lu Meng heard this, and a stunned look flashed on their faces at the same time. Zhang Liao raised his head and saw the faces of the two, and said in surprise: "Gongjin and Ziming, but what's wrong?" β
Zhou Yu was the first to recover, shook his head and said, "There's nothing wrong with it, Wen Yuan's plan is very good." The vine armor soldier can play the role of a surprise soldier, Guan Yu does not notice it, and he can defeat him for a while. β
Zhang Liao listened, smiled and nodded. And Zhou Yu had already lowered his head at this time and sighed lightly. A stunned look flashed on Zhou Yu's face, it was really because what Zhang Liao wanted coincided with himself. Zhou Yu was sighing, there are no less than ten such good generals under Zhang Xiu, but there are only a handful of such good generals in Jiangdong. The gap between the two sides can be seen from this, and Zhou Yu also feels that he did not lose unjustly at the beginning. There are too many capable people under Zhang Xiu, and there are also those endless means.
Zhang Liao didn't know what Zhou Yu was thinking, and seeing that everyone had no objections, he asked everyone to go down first to calm the army's mind, actively prepare for war, and wait for Guan Yu's army to arrive.
Three days later, Guan Yu led Le Jin, Li Dian and Xu Shu, the military division of the army, and 150,000 troops to the camp under Pingchun City. As soon as Guan Yu was promoted, a soldier rushed in quickly and reported: "General, the enemy army sent someone to send a war letter!" After speaking, he handed Guan Yu a letter with both hands.
Since a personal guard sent the letter to Guan Yu, after Guan Yu opened the letter, the words in it were not arrogant, probably meaning that they would fight tomorrow. After Guan Yu saw it, he frowned.
Xu Shu glanced up at Guan Yu, and now after Guan Yu saw the battle book, he didn't snort coldly as usual, and felt very surprised.
At this time, Guan Yu had already taken a brush and wrote a big word "war" on the battle book. Then he threw the letter to the ground and shouted: "Send someone back to Zhang Liao, and say that Ben will fight him!" When the word "war" was spoken, Guan Yu's murderous aura suddenly appeared, and the suffocating feeling suddenly spread throughout the entire big tent, and Li Dian, Le Jin, Zhang Yan and others were shocked at the same time.
Xu Shu endured the murderous discomfort, and said in a condensed voice: "Junhou, the enemy army is deceitful first!" β
Guan Yu heard it, and snorted coldly: "Forgive Zhang Liao, Xiao'er can't make big waves." Just take this opportunity to cut it off with a knife! β
Li Dian and Le Jin glanced at each other, both saw the worry in each other's eyes, and secretly thought in their hearts: "This Guan Yu is really too arrogant, how could the prime minister let him be in charge." β
Xu Shu was also a little worried at first, but when he saw the caution unconsciously revealed in the depths of Guan Yu's eyes, he was completely relieved. Secretly thought: "It seems that when I fought with Zhao Yun, the prince and the prince restrained a lot. β
β¦β¦
At noon the next day, the sun was high in the sky, and the southeast wind was blowing tightly.
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
"Woo woo woo ......"
In the wilderness north of Pingchun City, drums beat loudly and trumpets sounded in unison. The endless aura of slaughter reverberated and turned around in heaven and earth with the sound of majestic drums and horns, and it lasted for a long time!
Due north, Li Dian, Le Jin, and Zhang Yan led the three men and horses to form three neat phalanxes in front of the camp. The army of 150,000 spread out in the wilderness, but saw that the guns and halberds were like a forest, and the murderous spirit was vigorous, and the fluttering banners of hunting in the wind obscured the scorching sun hanging high in the sky.
I saw that in the middle of the phalanx, a general came out of the crowd. I saw this person wearing a green robe and holding a big knife. Under the scorching sun, but seeing the big knife refracting a little blue light, the killing intent was awe-inspiring. And the sleeve on the left side of this person is empty, and you don't have to think much to know that it is the coach of Cao Jun, Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang!
Just when Cao's army came out of the battle, the gate of Pingchun City on the opposite side was wide open, and there were many soldiers rushing out of the city. Under the sound of the horn, the sergeant Zhang Xiu of the brigade surged out of the city gate like a tide. As soon as he left the city gate, he immediately spread out to the two wings, and in just a few moments, he formed a neat camp under the city.
Under the city of Pingchun, the soldiers wrapped in black armor from head to toe are like the dark waves from hell, exuding a palpitating cold!
"Woo......"
At this moment, the sound of the horn changed in vain, and the array immediately split from the middle, making way for a passage.
Several generals slowly walked out of the cracked passage with swords in hand. For one person, with a purple jade face, holding a straight knife, majestic, it is the coach Zhang Liao. Next to him, a person with a handsome face and a sword hanging from his waist, was the military advisor Zhou Yu. The next person, holding a spear, with a wise cold glow flashing from time to time in his solemn eyes, was the general Lu Meng.
Guan Yu's gaze only glanced at Zhang Liao, and then fell on the soldiers who were wrapped in black armor from head to toe. The brow furrowed slightly.
However, this is no longer the time to hesitate, after Guan Yu paid attention, he lightly kicked Lu Ma under his crotch, rushed out of the battle, held the Qinglong Yanyue Sword in his right hand, and shouted: "Guan Yu is here, who dares to fight?" β
Guan Yu called for battle, and Zhang Liao's party was suffocated at the same time. Zhou Yu was afraid that Zhang Liao would be provoked by Guan Yu to fight, so he hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty has a word, Guan Yu is brave, and the general can't go out easily!" β
Zhang Liao heard this, nodded his head, and did not pay attention to Guan Yu, but said to the flag soldier behind him: "Wave the flag!" β
"Huhuhu......"
The handsome flag shook in the wind, and when the soldiers saw it, their expressions tensed at the same time, and they looked ready to wait!
Guan Yu saw that Zhang Xiujun on the other side should not fight, and laughed and said: "It turns out that Zhang Xiu'er's subordinates are all bile mice......
Before Guan Yu finished speaking, Zhang Liao smiled contemptuously and said coldly: "Drumming!" β
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
The agitated war drums suddenly sounded, and the blood-pumping drums suddenly covered Guan Yu's shouting. After Zhang Xiujun's soldiers heard the agitated sound of war drums, the morale of the soldiers who had fallen slightly because there was no general on their side to respond to the battle suddenly rebounded!
Seeing this, Guan Yu snorted coldly and said, "Carving insect skills!" After speaking, the Qinglong Yanyue Knife was raised, under the scorching sun, the cyan knife appeared, and Xu Shu saw it behind him, and also shouted: "Drumming!" β
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
On Cao Jun's side, the shocking drums followed. Each powerful drum beat seemed to hit the hearts of 150,000 Cao Jun, making the heartbeats become rapid with the sound of the drum. The flow of blood in the body also increased, and the blood in the body quickly boiled in this continuous cycle!
"Kill......"
"Rush, ......"
Almost at the same time, Zhang Liao and Guan Yu suddenly burst out of their mouths, and the officers and soldiers of the two armies, who had been waiting for a long time, heard the order, held their weapons, and suddenly charged!
At this moment, the morale of the two armies reached its peak at the same time. The soldiers of the two armies charged at the same time, and Guan Yu, who was in front of the formation, did not retreat at all, but waited for the army behind to arrive, and Lu Ma, who was instigated, led the army to kill Zhang Xiujun!
Contrary to Cao Jun, Zhang Xiujun's commander Zhang Liao, deputy general Lu Meng, and military advisor Zhou Yu all did not move under the city. Another general, Wen Ping, was above the city, condescending to report the battle to Zhang Liao under the city. And the only ones who really led the charge were Wang Ping and Zhang Wei.
Those soldiers who were wrapped in black armor from head to toe didn't need to think much to know that they were all the elites of the barbarians in the south. Although there are only 10,000 people in the two flying armies, everyone is wearing invulnerable rattan armor, led by Wang Ping and Zhang Wei, two young generals, to rush to the front.
Almost at the same time, Zhang Liao and Xu Shu, who were commanding the battle between the two armies, shouted: "Archers, prepare to ......"
In the next moment, the archers in the rear of the two armies raised their bows diagonally upwards at the same time, and their hands had already grabbed a sharp arrow from the quiver and placed it on top of the bow.
The big bow was like a full moon, and after Zhang Liao and Xu Shu saw it, they shouted at the same time: "Release the arrow!" β
"Woo Woo ......"
At the same moment, thousands of sharp arrows flew out of each of the two armies' formations, shooting towards the enemy's formation. Sharp arrows pierced the air, making that palpitating chirp!
"Tuk Tuk ......"
"Puff puff ......"
Sharp arrows landed in front of both sides at the same time, but the effect was diametrically opposite. The rain of arrows on Cao Jun's side flew down on the vine armor soldiers on Zhang Xiujun's two wings, and only a muffled sound came, and the vine armor soldiers did not pause at all and continued to charge.
On the other hand, on the Cao army's side, under the rain of arrows, there was a "poof" sound of sharp arrows shooting into the flesh and blood, and the Cao sergeant who rushed to the front was hit by several arrows, and fell on the way to charge.
Only the situation of the Chinese army is relatively normal, because Zhang Xiujun is on the side, the Chinese army does not have invulnerable rattan armor soldiers, so the arrow rain of the Cao army still has an effect. The two sergeants fell under the rain of arrows, leaving hundreds of corpses together. However, these casualties are inconspicuous among the tens of thousands of troops. The soldiers in the back didn't even glance at the soldiers who died in the charge in front of them, and only passed them and continued to charge. In such a large-scale head-to-head battle, human life seems so cheap.
Zhang Liao under the city looked at Guan Yu who was charging forward, snorted lightly, and said to himself: "The courage of one person, how can you defeat ten thousand troops!" β
As if confirming what Zhang Liao said, Wang Ping on the left and Zhang Wei on the right had already led the Wudang and Wuxian flying army, and first crashed into the phalanx of the two wings led by Li Dian and Le Jin, who were shot by the rain of arrows!
I saw that after the vine armor soldier rushed into the enemy formation, the war knife in his hand suddenly slashed at a Cao soldier in front. Seeing this, Cao Bing on the opposite side also raised his knife and slashed.
"Ding......
"Poof......
The two knives slashed down at the same time, but they made two completely different sounds. Cao Bing's war knife slashed at the vine armor soldier, and there was only a slight sound, and this Cao soldier felt that no matter how hard he tried, the war knife could not cut in. And on the battlefield, everyone has very little time to shoot, this Cao soldier only paused for a moment, and the war knife of the vine armor soldier has already been cut. A crisp voice sounded, and the rattan armor soldier slashed the head of this Cao soldier with a knife in his hand. To his death, this Cao soldier's eyes widened, and he couldn't understand why he couldn't cut through the enemy's black armor.
In this scene, the battlefield that was born on both wings, the invulnerable vine armor soldiers did not make any defense at all, and only cared about "wow, wow" and couldn't stop rushing forward, and then slashed and killed indiscriminately. However, the barbarian soldiers, who had no formation at all, were defeated and retreated on both wings of the Cao army, and no matter how Li Dian and Le Jin commanded, they couldn't stop the decline.
Immortality under the rain of arrows, coupled with the overwhelming attack, naturally attracted the attention of all the generals in Cao's camp. Especially Guan Yu, who was charging ahead, the Chinese army was under his leadership, and he made great progress, but after killing for a while, Guan Yu caught a glimpse that the two wings did not follow at all.
Raising his hand to slash a Zhang Xiu soldier to death under the knife, Guan Yu suddenly turned his head to look at both sides. However, he saw that the Cao army on both flanks not only did not keep up, but was also defeated and retreated under the attack of the enemy's black-armored soldiers. And it's still the kind of defeat without suspense, and it can't stop the decline at all.
When Guan Yu saw it, he couldn't help but scold: "Two wastes! He also said how powerful it is to lead troops to fight, and he has already lost by only leading the flanks to fight! β
At this moment, a junior colonel behind him quickly rushed to Guan Yu's side and said hurriedly: "General, the military advisor said that the enemy forces on both wings are overwhelming, please support the general!" β
Guan Yu heard this, nodded his head, and then said: "Order Zhang Yan, command the Chinese army to continue to move forward!" After speaking, he led a soldier, slowly turned the direction of progress to the left, and led the soldiers to kill all the time! V
