Chapter 126 Jizhou Fengyun
Hua Xiong asked: "General Zhao, what's the situation, the lord notified me to come to support, but he didn't explain the enemy's situation." ”
"Today's detailed work has just reported, the two generals of the Jizhou Army, Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran, with 30,000 elite soldiers, have already deployed troops to the border, but they have not moved, we must closely monitor the enemy army."
Hua Xiong snorted coldly: "This is not taking us seriously, Yuan Shao is hateful, we should clean it up." ”
Zhao Yunbu only had 3,000 cavalry and 5,000 infantry, but now with the support of Huaxiong's 3,000 cavalry, 6,000 cavalry is enough for field battles.
5,000 infantry defended the city, and it was more than enough to guard the plain county.
Pingyuan City was originally a city operated by Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei.
Later, Zhao Yun's White Horse Army took over Pingyuan City, and Zhao Yun took the new position, although he was a general, but he did not have many soldiers, 5,000 light infantry, 3,000 light cavalry.
Although the number of troops is limited, Zhao Yun is still very good at using troops, the city defense is well repaired, the troops are properly arranged, and the small plain city is guarded like an iron bucket.
But Pingyuan County, as its name suggests, is a plain with villages on the Great Plains, rich land, dense population, and the most invulnerable to war.
Therefore, according to Lu Bu's arrangement, it is to try to keep the enemy out of the country and not to fight locally, once the war is ignited, the destruction of the people is very powerful.
When he arrived in Pingyuan County, Hua Xiong became Zhao Yun's deputy, don't look at Zhao Yun's short time, but the strong are respected in the army, and Hua Xiong is still convinced.
Zhao Yun proposed: "General Hua, the Jizhou army is fierce, we can't wait here, lead the cavalry to the border, go to the meeting first, and feel the details." ”
Hua Xiong nodded: "Okay, it's exactly what I want, I heard that these two people are very strong in martial arts, and they will just go." ”
Six thousand cavalry marched out of the border area, and as soon as the cavalry arrived, they set up camp and waited for the army of Gao Ran and Zhang Jaw.
When Gao Ran heard that Zhao Yun had come to the border, he looked at Zhang Jaw.
"General Zhang, what do you think?"
"The lord ordered us to wait for the order at the border, and then attack after receiving the order, if it is easy to start a war, it is not easy to explain, after all, Lu Bu is not a soft persimmon."
Gao Ran was thoughtful, in fact, as a general, Gao Ran still had a certain understanding of what Yuan Shao was thinking.
When Lu Bu was weak, Yuan Shao took good care of Qingzhou.
At the earliest, Yuan Shao supplied a lot of horses, cowhides, etc., which were important materials for Lu Bu's start in Qingzhou.
But in recent months, Yuan Shao saw that Lu Bu had become stronger, and began to oppose Lu Bu everywhere.
However, Yuan Shao was more jealous of Lu Bu, and he didn't dare to start a fight in a righteous and bright way, even if Cao Cao promised to give Yuan Shao many benefits, Yuan Shao was still hesitant.
"That's it, General Zhang, let's go over and see what Zhao Yun and Hua Xiong are doing first, and then make a decision."
Tens of thousands of infantry stayed in the barracks, and the two only brought 5,000 cavalry to negotiate with Zhao Yun and Hua Xiong.
The two sides lined up and shot at the position.
Gao Ran looked at the cavalry on the opposite side was really powerful, almost everyone had iron armor, and the weapons of the Huaxiong Department were mainly long knives, short spears, and sabers.
And the 3,000 cavalry of Zhao Yun's department were all armed with curved bows.
Zhao Yun also saw the army of Gao Lan and Zhang Jaw, as the elite of the Jizhou army. The war horses of the Jizhou cavalry are high-headed horses, although the proportion of cavalry iron armor is not high, but everyone has cowhide armor, Yan Zhao Jian'er, all bow horses are skillful, and they are not easy to provoke at first glance.
With a flick of his jaw, the big knife in his hand rushed out of the position: "Hua Xiong, I heard that your knife skills are good, but you dare to make two moves." ”
Hua Xiong laughed, sat down and rushed out, the big knife in his hand and the big knife in his jaw collided together, and there was a bang.
The war horses staggered, and they slashed three times in a row.
Hua Xiong only felt that he had met his opponent again today, and this was a hard idea.
Zhang Jaw's hand was also numb, and the two fought for more than 30 rounds, but there was no winner.
Zhao Yun could see clearly in the back, Hua Xiong and Zhang Jaw were on a par.
As the saying goes, if two tigers fight, one must be injured, and Ming Jin was immediately ordered.
Hua Xiong retreated, and Zhao Yun arched his hand: "General Hua will rest for a while, and I will fight him." ”
"General Zhao be careful, this person is skilled."
Zhao Yun came up and didn't rush to make a move.
"Open jaw, there was a big battle just now, you can rest for a while."
Zhao Yun said a sentence that made his jaw unhappy: "Who do you look down on, you still have to rest?" Look at the knife. ”
The big knife with his jaw pierced Zhao Yun's head, and Zhao Yun stabbed when he returned the gun.
Zhangjaw's knife technique is wide open and closed, which is a real kung fu, known as the four famous generals of Hebei.
But today, he didn't fight Zhao Yun for more than twenty rounds, and he was obviously at a disadvantage.
Gao Ran saw it clearly, worried that something would happen to Zhang Jaw, so he immediately waved his spear and urged him to come and replace Zhang Jaw.
Gao Ran has been practicing martial arts for more than ten years, practicing Sanjiu in winter and Sanfu in summer, that is a person with real skills, and he fought with Zhao Yun for more than 30 rounds as soon as he got started.
Gao Ran was sweating, he had already used his marksmanship to the extreme, but looking at Zhao Yun's appearance, it seemed that he had not used all his strength.
Zhao Yun felt that as long as he worked harder, it would not be a big problem to stab Gao Ran with one shot.
However, as a military general, to implement the orders of the lord, the order issued by Lu Bu was to strictly prevent the Jizhou army from attacking.
Now the Jizhou army has not started a real attack, and it is not yet time to really start it.
Zhao Yun shook his spear and stopped fighting: "General Gao's marksmanship is very good, let's stop here today." I hope that General Gao will think of the people of the world and not set up arson. ”
As soon as Zhao Yun stopped, Gao Ran breathed a sigh of relief.
"General Zhao, rest assured, my Jizhou army is the division of the Han Dynasty, not the Yellow Turban Grass Kou, how can it harm the people."
Both sides quit their troops and returned to their respective camps.
The two armies were more than ten miles apart and monitored each other, but they did not move.
At this time, Gongsun Zan of Youzhou moved, and stabbed Jizhou's waist and eyes Zhending Mansion from north to south.
As soon as it came up, it was a fierce attack, and three county towns were taken down in one day, and the army went south, which had the meaning of taking Zhending Mansion directly.
At this time, Zhending Mansion is busy with spring ploughing, and early spring is the busiest time.
At this time, if you delay the agricultural time, don't think about a good harvest for a year.
Yuan Shao immediately sent Wen Chou to lead an army of 30,000 to the north to meet the enemy, and the matter of attacking Lu Bu was put on hold.
Because although Yuan Shao's troops are more than 100,000, there are many places that need to be defended.
Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan fought again, and the armies of Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran returned to the defense and gave up their plan to attack Qingzhou.
Besides, Lu Bu was in Jinan County, and he received a notice of Yuan Shu's army early.
Yuan Shu really sent Ji Ling to lead an army of 50,000 to attack Xuzhou.
After receiving the information, Lu Bu immediately organized 10,000 cavalry from his headquarters, and the army quickly assembled and marched towards Xuzhou.
