Chapter 227: Zhang Fei's first battle was brilliant
Lu Bu was a little unhappy to be woken up from his sleep, yesterday during the day Wei Xuan sent people around the city to insult him, and he did not rest at night, and there were people at the four city gates who harassed him many times. Although Gao Shun, Song Xian and others were stationed at the head of the city, Lu Bu did not need to visit the city in person every time, but he did not dare to sleep steadily, and did not fall asleep until the second half of the night.
It was a military marquis under Song Xian who woke up Lu Bu, and when he saw Lu Bu come out, his face was unhappy and he said cautiously: "Captain Song asked Xiao to come and inform the general that the guards and thieves had sent troops, and more than 10,000 people in front of them were divided into three phalanxes, and one of them was coming from the west gate. ”
No matter how unhappy he was, now Wei Xuan was impatient, since the enemy was ready to attack the city early in the morning, he couldn't rely on it in the mansion, so Lu Bu waved his hand; "Got it, you go down first."
When Lu Bu came to the West City Gate Tower in a neat manner, Gao Shun hurriedly ran over and said, "General, it seems that there is a catapult in Wei Xuan's army, and he is betting that we will not go out of the city to fight." I want to hold our army in the city like Niu Fu that day. ”
The city gate tower is very high and suitable for climbing high and looking into the distance, and the city ???????????????? The catapult being assembled outside is also very large, Lu Bu can see it at a glance, although he has not seen the power of this giant catapult, but Niu Fu can be forced to be blocked by the guards at the gate and forced out of the gate to impact is enough to prove the lethality of such a siege weapon.
So he said to Gao Shun: "Zixiu, you go and prepare, I will let the cavalry rush first, if you can't rush away, you need to go up, no matter what, you can't let Wei Xuan use such a giant to smash my city wall unscrupulously." In addition, he sent someone to inform Xu Rong and asked him to send cavalry to help in the battle. ”
Gao Shun nodded and said loudly, and then said: "General, there are a lot of people on Wei Xuan's two wings, and it seems impossible to suddenly kill from the north and south gates. If you want to destroy the catapult, you can only storm the middle lane. ”
Lu Bu said with a smile on his face: "Wei Xuan is a victorious general, I think it was too easy to fight with the thieves in the past, and he actually underestimated my warriors and states, and today I don't seek a big victory, nor do I want to destroy the catapult, I only need to kill the soldiers." ”
】
At this time, Song Xian also came to him, listened to the conversation between Lu Bu and Gao Shun, and joked: "General, don't underestimate Wei Jiahuha, he has maintained a complete victory over the 3,000 and 100,000 Baibo Army, the 4,000 thieves in Xingyang in 300 days, the Funiu Mountain Thieves and the Yuzhou Yellow Turban Yu Party." ”
Lu Bu glanced at him and reminded: "Although Wei Zhongdao's martial arts are average, it is rumored that he has a fellow brother who is a disciple of Tong Yuan, and Zhao Yun is also here." There is also Zhang Wenyuan in terms of generals, which must not be underestimated. ”
Song Xian said indifferently: "Zhang Wenyuan's milk is not dry, but he is already the number one general under Wei Xuan, which shows that he has no one under him." That Niu Fu is really a nest, 10,000 people are stationed at Yuyuan Pass, and they are constantly being tricked, and most of the dead and injured by Wei Xuan in one day are really laughing to death. ”
Lu Bu smiled and said nothing, and Gao Shun on the side reminded: "The wall has ears, so it's better for Captain Song to be cautious." ”
Song Xian glanced at Lu Bu, then at Gao Shun and said, "Zixiu is too cautious, I won't say it." ”
Lu Bu glanced at the two of them, put away their smiles and said, "Let's all go down and prepare, and tell the soldiers that we must beat Wei Xuan's soldiers to death today!" ”
The corners of Gao Shun and Song Xian's mouths twitched, knowing that their generals were jealous of the provocation sent by Wei Xuan yesterday, and they were ready to vent their anger from the battlefield today.
Outside the west gate of Monkey City, Wei Xuanjun's front camp position, Wei Xuan, Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong and Xi Zhicai and others all boarded the temporary watchtower early, and under the watchtower was a group of Sima and military marquis.
The heavy city gate slowly opened, and a team of cavalry galloped out, Zhang Liao glanced at the banner and said to Wei Xuan: "Out of the city is Hao Meng, the general under the command of Lu Fengxian. ”
Wei Xuan nodded and said to the herald next to him: "Tell Zhang Fei to lead his troops to meet the enemy, and be sure to block Hao Meng in front of the infantry phalanx." ”
The herald had to rush downstairs, and Zhang Fei downstairs was stunned for a while when he got the order, and then laughed, knowing that Wei Xuan was giving him an opportunity to make meritorious contributions, he turned his head and glanced at the others, not to mention how proud he was.
Zhang Liao couldn't help but glance at Wei Xuan and said, "General, although Hao Meng is brave, there are many people in our army who can defeat others. ”
Wei Xuan said with a smile: "But the individual combat strength of our cavalry is not as good as that of the soldiers of the state. Yide provoked outside the city yesterday, and if he can defeat the Bingzhou cavalry head-on today, the enemy will be even more devastated???????????????? A few. ”
Zhang Liao suddenly said that Wei Xuan was using the general to suppress the enemy general, once the main general fell into passivity, no matter how strong the cavalry ability of the state was, it would not be able to exert itself. Everyone also smiled and nodded, and they were also full of expectations for Zhang Fei.
As the general order was delivered, the front of the phalanx dispersed, and Zhang Fei took the lead, shouting while running: "Yanren Zhang Yide is here, Lu Bu Xiao'er will go out of the city and die!" ”
The voice was so loud that the soldiers in his phalanx and on the Monkey Clan's city wall also heard it. Hao Meng, who rushed out of the city and rushed to the front, naturally heard it, the lord humiliated the ministers to death, and then it seemed that the black four guys in front of him were the guys who provoked outside the city yesterday, and they were naturally angry. Ignoring the soldiers behind him, he urged the horse and went straight to Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei has also been holding back for several years, these days he is training cavalry in Zhang Liao's camp every day, he is a new military marquis naturally does not dare to slack off, but even Zhang Liao is not his opponent in the army, where can he have fun, he wants to learn from Dian Wei, Xu Chu and Zhao Yun and others, but Dian Wei and Xu Chu are Wei Xuan's personal guards, and they dare not leave an inch without Wei Xuan's order. Zhao Yun is even more of a captain of the military guard, and his subordinates are even more busy with two thousand cavalry.
Now Wei Xuan let him be the first to go into battle, naturally excited, seeing the enemy general go straight to him, his heart was overjoyed, urging the war horse to go straight to Hao Meng, the two horses approached, Zhang Fei's spear stabbed out, and Hao Meng was not ambiguous The spear arrived later.
Both of them were very fast, and seeing that each was aimed at the vital point, they waved their weapons almost simultaneously to sweep the other away.
While! The sound of metal collision was very harsh, Zhang Fei frowned, and Hao Meng was shocked. Zhang Fei quickly drew back his weapon, raised his hands above the top and spun twice in the air, and then smashed down heavily. Hao Meng actually felt the power of the black guy in front of him in the first move, and at this time, when he saw that Zhang Fei did not use a thorn but smashed it down directly, he didn't dare to slack off, and held the spear with both hands and put it up.
While! This time the voice was louder than the last time, Zhang Fei frowned, and Hao Meng took a step back even after being shocked.
Zhang Fei withdrew his weapon, and then swept straight to Hao Meng's waist with a powerful plan, Hao Meng didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly raised his gun to block.
While! There is a block, Zhang Fei frowned, he finally understood that Wei Xuanwei said that Lu Bu was brave and the world, and the generals under his command were all brave, and it seemed that he would not fight. Originally, Wei Xuan was famous for knowing people and being good at his duties, and his understanding of the enemy would not be false, so he straightened his waist and quickly withdrew the spear and changed it to a thorn.
Zhang Feiji made meritorious contributions, and never thought that the enemy general was also very brave, but when he saw that the opponent was more nervous than himself, he laughed: "You are not your grandfather's opponent, hurry back and change the three family slaves." ”
Over there, Hao Meng originally wanted to take down the enemy to make Lu Bu angry, but in only three rounds, he was shocked twice, and the third time he took a step back directly, so he was naturally more careful and took out two tenths of his strength to deal with it. It's just that in the face of a huge gap in strength, it is not enough to be careful, especially as time goes by, Zhang Fei also has a general understanding of Hao Meng's strength, and a missed stab has changed to a powerful smash. This time Hao Meng went all out, but was shocked to take a big step back again, and the horse took a few small steps in a row to stabilize. Hao Meng was shocked, knowing that he might not last long alone, and at this time, Hao Meng's personal soldiers also carefully saw that the main person would be shocked back and wanted to come forward to help.
Zhang Fei was naturally impatient, and when he saw someone making trouble, he directly stabbed him,???????????????? Impalated the armor of a cavalryman on Hao Meng's right and on his left, and the man fell down in fear. Hao Meng took the opportunity to attack, but Zhang Fei's spear was extremely sharp, and it was not stuck on the pro-soldier at all, and he directly pulled back a sweep that just blocked Hao Meng's attack.
However, after such a mess, the advantage that Zhang Fei had established in the previous three or four rounds came to naught. Zhang Fei had no choice but to readjust his posture and attack Hao Meng, Hao Meng was defeated again and again, but fortunately, Hao Meng's personal soldiers were also very clever and kept appearing at critical moments. Zhang Fei was annoyed and ruthless, but he had already killed three people in a row.
At the same time, the guards and men of both sides also fought. In terms of momentum, Zhang Fei's cavalry was not joined by the state soldiers, mainly because they had too little experience in cavalry combat, so it was inevitable that they were a little nervous, and they were loosened as soon as they engaged. Then when he saw Zhang Fei's bravery, the cavalry also had a spirit, and rushed to Zhang Fei's side with a shout: "Junhou, I'll block these crumbs for you, you kill the enemy general as soon as possible!" ”
When everyone Qibin heard this, they all shouted to gather around Zhang Fei and intercept Hao Meng's personal soldiers one by one, obviously not wanting them to disturb Zhang Fei.
In this way, Zhang Fei's own soldiers and the cavalry in the front row were greatly encouraged, and Hao Meng's subordinates saw that the captain who was extremely brave on weekdays was not the opponent of the first army marquis, and their morale was inevitably affected. All of a sudden, the two sides were at a stalemate.
This is exactly what Zhang Fei wanted to see, and the characteristic loud voice said again: "Small, work hard to drive these turtle grandsons back to the city, hahaha......"
Lu Bu on the city wall obviously also saw the situation on the battlefield, the number of subordinates of the two people was about the same, they were all about five hundred cavalry, but they didn't expect that the black guy yesterday really had some ability. To Lu Bu's surprise, it was still behind, although the individual soldiers were not as good as Hao Meng, but Zhang Fei suppressed Hao Meng's department with the strength of one person, but in the time of a stick of incense, Hao Meng's department who went out of the city was loosened, and the real team was pressed by Zhang Fei's department and kept retreating. This is definitely not what Lu Bu wants to see, the total number of defenders in the city is only five or six thousand, and the outside guard Xuan is nearly 30,000, if the elite cavalry can't get a one-on-one advantage, then the morale of the defenders in the city will definitely be greatly reduced.
