Ever since Wen Qin and Chen Shi launched a deadly duel in the front army, Zhang Xi was actually very nervous.

I'm really afraid that Guo Huai will learn from him.

Now the number of people in front of the two armies is too small, Zhang Xi's side is only 100 people, and now there are more than 20 casualties, most of them are still responsible for blocking Guo Huai's soldiers from attacking the troops who stayed around Zhang Xi to protect them, and only one squad of ten people has died.

Zhang Xi has indeed always paid attention to the protection of his own formation, but the duel of this number of guards, this number of guards, if Guo Huai really wants to rush over, with Guo Huai's martial arts, it is not impossible to fight ten at a time.

Then Guo Huai really rushed over.

Zhang Xi is a speechless person, and he is really afraid of anything.

But it makes sense.

Now that Zhang Nan has led the army to attack, as long as Zhang Xi's side can continue to block Guo Huai's attack, Guo Huai will definitely be defeated under the attack from both sides.

At this time, Zhang Xi will also launch a charge, but Zhang Xi does not have this force value.

Before the war, Zhang Xi did not think about this possibility, but the confrontation between the two armies was mainly the temporary command of the main general's arrangement, and when he really encountered the danger of rushing into battle, it was actually very rare.

Therefore, although Zhang Xi has made a plan and arranged guards for himself, the number of people is so small now, which is indeed a bit unexpected by Zhang Xi.

As long as he can have more mobile troops in his hand, Zhang Xi doesn't have to worry that Guo Huai will charge the battle alone.

But no matter what, Zhang Xi at least thought about what to do in this situation, so he didn't panic.

First of all, you can't retreat.

The thousand-level match, the battlefield is such a big place, and everything that happens on the battlefield can be seen clearly. Once Zhang Xi chooses to avoid Guo Huai's edge for the time being, what will everyone think after seeing it?!

In these years, the emphasis is on a "soldier courage", your main generals have all retired, can you still count on the soldiers below to fight for you? !

If it is a battlefield of tens of thousands of people, as long as the flag of the main general does not fall, where the main general himself is, whether he is hiding from the raiding troops, no one can see it, as long as he sees that the general flag is still there, the battle can continue.

But now against thousands of people, the battlefield is artificially divided into three pieces, and what happens is simply clear at a glance.

Therefore, Zhang Xi's first and most important response is not to retreat, but to calm down and meet Guo Huai's wave of rushing in place.

Secondly, Zhang Xi hurriedly ordered, and then guarded his team, and began to form a formation according to the preparations before the battle.

The composition of Zhang Xi's escort team is different from the ordinary soldiers fighting in front. Among the ten-man escort, there were as many as four shield soldiers, four pikemen, and only two Miao sword soldiers.

This configuration makes it clear that it is not seeking offense and close-range combat, but purely based on defense and keeping the enemy out.

Zhang Xi felt that this should be enough.

Although Guo Huai is a sudden formation, but he himself did not bring many soldiers, most of them were blocked by Zhang Xi's Chinese army in front of the formation, Guo Huai's breakthrough formation, at most, can only lead a small number of personal guards, with himself as an "arrow", and strive to open a passage.

Such a sudden formation is not a military formation, and it all depends on personal courage to tear open the gap, not to mention the difficulty itself, and there will not be too many soldiers who can rush over.

A better result, Guo Huai can lead more than a dozen people to rush out, and the worst result may be Guo Huai rushing over alone.

The purpose of a team's defensive strength is not to compete with the enemy general, but to block a wave of attacks and wait for their own soldiers to come back for reinforcements.

Thirdly. In fact, Zhang Xi is not without means of self-preservation.

Although Zhang Xi's martial arts are a little more ordinary, just because the diet structure is more reasonable, and he is slightly stronger than ordinary people in this era, Zhang Xi is a traverser in the end.

Although Zhang Xi, a traverser, did not carry any plug-ins when he crossed, there was a person by Zhang Xi's side who often made plug-ins in history.

That's right, it's the dead fish head, Zhuge Kongming.

In order to deal with this possible danger, Zhang Xi asked Zhuge Liang to borrow something. Although Zhuge Liang felt that this thing was not mature and did not have much practical significance, Zhang Xi felt that it should be enough for self-defense.

So. In fact, Zhang Xi is still a little confident that he can block the impact of this wave of Guo Huai.

And Guo Huai is indeed, there is one thing to say, when Guo Huai wants to rely on his personal courage to launch a charge to win, he can no longer effectively control the battle situation.

But Guo Huai really didn't have a choice.

Under the same force, being attacked from both sides, there is rarely the possibility of not being defeated, and now if Guo Huai wants to win, he can only risk his life and rely on personal courage to win.

This is the biggest way that Guo Huai can think of at the moment, and it is likely to be the biggest way to win.

If you want to break through the military formation commanded by Zhang Xi head-on, there is indeed a certain risk, and by Zhang Xi's side, Guo Huai also realized that there must be someone to protect him, but these problems are not too big a problem in Guo Huai's eyes.

Guo Huai is still very confident in his martial arts.

He personally led the personal guards of thirty people to launch an attack on the military formation, relying on his own martial arts to open the way in front, and after the personal guards followed up from behind, Guo Huai did lead at least a dozen personal guards to break through the blockade in front of Zhang Xijun.

The rest of the guards were not all killed in battle, but they were entangled and blocked, and they couldn't get over for the time being.

After breaking through Zhang Xi's military formation, there are still more than a dozen personal guards left, Guo Huai is already very satisfied, after all, near Zhang Xi's general banner in front of him, there are only about ten people's guard force.

After breaking through the army formation, Guo Huai did not stop there, and re-commanded the soldiers to attack first. Breaking out of the formation, what is important is to be vigorous, so Guo Huai did not hesitate to continue to use himself as an arrow and rushed towards Zhang Xi's main formation.

Then Guo Huai encountered the first interception soldier, which was four shield soldiers.

These four shield soldiers lined up in a line, blocking Guo Huai's impact route, and the purpose of the shield soldiers was to rely on the shield to slow down Guo Huai's impact.

Behind this shield soldier were four pikemen.

The pikemen placed the tail of the spear against the ground at an angle of forty-five degrees, and crossed the front of the shield to form a simple antler.

This was the most common, against the cavalry charge of the infantry formation.

In the face of such a defensive formation, it is impossible for Guo Huai to rely on his personal strength to rush hard, even if he speeds up, the impact of the war horse is enough to break through the shield wall set up by the soldiers, but the level of the spear, no matter what, it can't be passed.

Therefore, Guo Huai had to control the war horse to turn in the process of the assault and temporarily avoid the obstruction of this simple antler.

It's just that in this way, if Guo Huai wants to maintain the speed of the war horse, he must go around in circles a little. It is not so easy for a war horse in high-speed movement to make a U-turn, after all, war horses don't play drifting.

Once Guo Huai chooses to maintain his speed and let the war horse go around in a circle, then Zhang Xi may adjust the Chinese army in time, let the Chinese army temporarily come to help, and block his chance to charge the battle again.

Guo Huai had no choice but to take another way. Slow down your own impact speed, cooperate with the guards you brought, let the guards entangle the shield wall combination of these eight people, and then bypass this shield wall by yourself and relaunch the charge.

Although doing so will reduce Guo Huai's impact speed and weaken the impact force, considering that there are only two guards left by Zhang Xi's side, this is not an unacceptable price.

After cooperating with his own guards and entangled these pikemen and shield guards, Guo Huai got rid of the entanglement again, started again, and rushed over to Zhang Xi.

Although only Guo Huai rushed into battle alone this time, it was Zhang Xi and two foot soldiers on the opposite side, if this scene could not be dealt with, Guo Huai would not have been able to make such a big name in Liangzhou.

Up to this time, Guo Huai felt that his charge was still very smooth.

Then, things started to go wrong.

Guo Huai has already hit a distance of more than ten zhang from Zhang Xi, at this time, the most normal response, Zhang Xi should also hold a long weapon, urge the war horse to speed up, and have a round duel.

But Zhang Xi still sat motionless on the horse, neither took the long weapon nor drew the matching sword, and did not seem to realize that Guo Huai was about to rush over.

However, the two soldiers in front of Zhang Xi, although they were equipped with Miao knives, still did not draw their knives out of their bodies at this time, but instead held two machine crossbows and aimed at Guo Huai.

Guo Huai was suddenly shocked, and the military generals on the other side actually didn't talk about martial arts.

When this kind of rushing duel, you didn't go out of battle alone, but let people release crossbow arrows?!

Is there a bit of aristocratic spirit anymore?!

Zhang Xi didn't know what Guo Huai was thinking at this time, but if he knew a little, he probably couldn't help but scold. If you want to be a little aristocratic, you shouldn't have launched a charge against me.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, the heads-up between leading generals was very sacred, and it was also necessary to pick opponents, and they must match the levels and abilities of both sides before they could be carried out.

In terms of level, Guo Huai and Zhang Xi are matched, but in terms of ability, if a brave general like Guo Huai proposes a heads-up with a wise general like Zhang Xi, it will be Guo Huai's shame and lack of aristocratic spirit.

I don't know who didn't talk about martial arts first.

Moreover, in this era, the rules of the battlefield have changed a lot, and I have to investigate whether it is in line with the spirit of aristocracy. Guo Huai doesn't have this leisure.

At this distance, it is actually quite difficult to dodge the attack of the crossbow arrows, and the only thing Guo Huai can do is to try to fit his body against the horse's back, reduce the area to be attacked, and try to avoid the attacks of the crossbow arrows.

At this distance, it is indeed difficult to dodge the attack of the crossbow arrow, but again, at this distance, the crossbow arrow only has one chance to shoot.

Therefore, in Guo Huai's concept, he is fighting with two arrows in his body, but also to quickly approach Zhang Xi, taking advantage of Zhang Xi's disadvantage of not being able to speed up, he directly stabbed Zhang Xi with one shot.

Guo Huai was ready to come to his senses, but. Things turned out to be unexpected.

Seeing that he was only less than ten zhang away from Zhang Xi, Guo Huai suddenly heard a continuous and dense sound of crossbow arrows breaking through the wind, and then he heard the mournful roar of his war horse.

Then, Guo Huai felt that the whole person had lost his balance and fell to the ground.

And the moment he fell, Guo Huai had only one thought in his heart - Zhang Xi, a despicable villain, actually dared to shoot a horse?!!!
