"General, think twice!"

Cao Xuan hurriedly opened his mouth to advise.

Although the first battle of Luoyang made Dong Zhuo hurt his muscles and bones, after he returned to Chang'an, he recruited troops and bought horses, and the strength of the army has basically recovered, but there are many more new soldiers.

Although there were more than 10,000 casualties after this siege, the total number of troops left should not be less than 40,000.

3,000 people went to chase and kill 40,000 people, and the difference in strength between the two sides was more than ten times, what kind of crazy behavior is this?

Once Dong Zhuo suddenly turned around, it was likely that his army would be surrounded and annihilated.

Guan Yu smiled indifferently: "Why is the defeated army afraid of too many, and why is there too few people to pursue with victory?" Besides, our army only needs to chase and kill and not stalemate with the enemy. ”

After speaking, Cao Xing was still hesitant, so he added: "If you don't want to go, stay in the pass." ”

Who knew that Cao Xing said: "The last general is willing to go." ”

Guan Yu stroked his beard and laughed.

So, after Guan Yu arranged the city defense problem, he took Cao Xing and three thousand elite cavalry to pursue Dong Zhuo's retreating army.

Compared with Dong Zhuohao's mighty army of tens of thousands, their thousands of cavalry are really insignificant. However, Dong Zhuo was worried about Chang'an's safety at the moment, how could he have the energy to care about him.

"Bang! Bastard, let's kindly let him go, he still dares to chase and kill us! ”

Dong Zhuo repeatedly received the military information that the rear army was attacked by sneak attacks and a large amount of grain and grass was lost, and finally he couldn't bear it.

He wanted to set up an ambush, but the opponent was very sophisticated, and he couldn't enter the forest or the mountains.

Send cavalry back to intercept them, and the enemy will distance themselves from them again, never engaging large groups of their troops.

It's like a fly, it doesn't hurt you, but it annoys you.

"Lord, this is a strategy to attack and disturb, our army doesn't need to pay attention to it, just send a general with 5,000 soldiers and horses to stay and intercept." Li Ru spoke again.

Dong Zhuo hesitated: "Who can stop Guan Yu?" ”

He still remembers this fierce general, when he was at the foot of Beibi Mountain, it was precisely because Hua Xiong was killed by this person that he missed the opportunity.

"The last will go."

As soon as Dong Zhuo's words fell, Guo Yan came out.

Wu Wuji, before the fight, no one would easily admit that others were better than themselves, even if Guan Yu had slashed Huaxiong.

In fact, the order of the several fierce generals under Dong Zhuo's command should be Li Dao, Guo Yan, and Hua Xiong...... Hua Xiong, who was killed by Guan Yu, only ranked third.

This kind of ranking of force can easily give people the illusion. What Guo Yan thought in his heart was that if you can kill Hua Xiong, I can do it, and who is stronger between me and me!

Dong Zhuo saw that someone was coming out, so he nodded: "Guo Yan, I'll give you 5,000 soldiers and horses to stay and intercept." You don't have to defeat Guan Yu, you just need to build a high camp and stop him is a great achievement. ”

"Yes!"

Although Guo Yan responded like this, he didn't think so in his heart.

He had to prove to the lord that they were no worse than Liu Bei's generals, and Hua Xiong was just an accident.

……

"General Qiyu, Dong Zhuo's army has been withdrawn, but his henchman Guo Yan has been left to command the troops, this person is camping in front, obviously to intercept our army."

Guan Yu was leading his soldiers to inspect the enemy situation on the slope of the mountain, and the Jinyi guards on the side were reporting the news.

Guan Yu smiled slightly after hearing this: "How many enemy troops are there?" ”

"About five thousand."

"Okay, then I'll break his five thousand people, just tell Dong Zhuo that Hangu Pass is not the place he should come."

Guan Yu's words were full of confidence, as if the five thousand enemy troops were just lambs to the slaughter.

Jin Yiwei on the side hesitated for a moment, but still reminded: "General, Guo Yan is the second fierce general under Dong Zhuo. ”

Cao Xuan couldn't help but speak after hearing this: "Hua Xiong, who was killed by the general, seems to be only ranked third. ”

According to what he said, Guo Yan's strength is still above Huaxiong.

Guan Yu didn't care.

"The generation of the first person who inserts the label and sells the head, why worry about it? I will behead Guo Yan first, and then Li Dao in the future, so that there will be no more fierce generals under Dong Zhuo. ”

Everyone was silent, listening to the meaning of their own general, this is to shave Dong Zhuo's head!

"Come on, go and give that Guo Yan a war letter."

"Whoa."

Half an hour later, Guo Yan received a war letter from Guan Yu.

Bang!

Guo Yan suddenly stood up, his face turned red and hideous because of anger.

"Piff, how dare you insult me like this!"

Guan Yu's war book was not insulting, but it was full of contempt, and there was a meaning between the words: Are you in such a hurry to reunite with your brother Huaxiong?

Guo Yan was originally short-tempered, and he has always been dissatisfied with Guan Yu, thinking that killing Hua Xiong is not a big deal.

"Someone come, immediately gather troops and horses, and meet the enemy with me."

"If you don't kill Guan Yu, I swear not to be a person!"

A roar of rage was heard in the distance.

The general hurriedly persuaded: "General, the lord has let us garrison here. ”

"Do you dare to disobey?"

"The last general will not dare."

"Then go back and gather the army, defeat and intercept the same."

"Whoa!"

……

On the plain, the two armies pulled out of formation and simultaneously charged at each other.

The cavalry at the forefront was the first to fall into a bloody battle, killing people on their backs.

The main generals of the two armies are tacitly moving towards each other's flags, and they both have the heart to capture the flag.

Guo Yan found Guan Yu in the chaotic army as he wished, with a hideous sneer on his face, and rushed towards him as fast as he could.

Guan Yu also spotted him at the same time, and rushed out with the Qinglong Yanyue Knife as always.

While! While! While!

It is still the familiar three fatal knives, one knife is stronger than the other.

The power of the first sword made Guo Yan truly understand the strength of his opponent.

The second knife has made him feel remorseful, maybe Hua Xiong died unjustly.

Third Knife ......

With a "bang", there was no one anymore, and only the lonely war horse looked around blankly.

With the death of the main general, the Xiliang army gradually fell into disadvantage, and finally retreated on all fronts, except for about 1,000 casualties, the rest surrendered.

This battle has added another stroke to Guan Yu's fierce record.

……

The most aggrieved thing in the world is that after someone beats you and leaves arrogantly, you can't catch up, and you can't catch up.

At this moment, the coalition composed of Cao Cao and Yuan Shu is facing this difficult choice.

The kite tactics of the state army overwhelmed them, and the three armies were like live targets, the casualty numbers were expanding little by little, and morale was becoming more and more sluggish.

This is also the disadvantage of one's own cavalry being inferior to the enemy, and the initiative of the war is always in Liu Bei's hands.

Even if he is as wise as Cao Cao and Xun You, he has never been able to think of a way to crack it.

In the end, Xun You sighed: "Lord, we are defeated. ”

Originally, I thought that with a defensive formation, I could test the depth of the enemy's army, but the result was that I could only be beaten passively.

You advance, and the state army retreats.

You retreat, they chase.

Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "One day, I will also train a cavalry army that is good at fighting. ”

After speaking, he returned to the Chinese army, and after discussing with Yuan Shu, the two agreed to withdraw from the army.

The task of breaking off fell on Sun Jian's subordinates.

……

"Brother Ziyang hasn't told me how to crack this tactic."

Jia Xu pondered for a long time, but he never thought of a way to crack this kite tactic.

In his opinion, there was only one way to crack this tactic, and that was to train a powerful cavalry that was also proficient in mounted archery and equipped with three treasures in horses.

Liu Ye said with a smile: "Brother Feng Xiao said that as long as you create a heavy bow and crossbow with a longer range, the advantages of this method of battle will be lost. ”

Jia Xu suddenly understood that the power of kite tactics was that it could threaten enemy infantry beyond the range of enemy archers.

However, if the enemy army is equipped with heavy bows and crossbows with a longer range, it can indeed directly threaten your own cavalry, and the advantage of this tactic does not exist.

Cavalrymen could only use light bows on horseback, so that the balance between foot and horse would be restored.

Jia Xu asked, "Does our army have this kind of heavy bow and crossbow now?" ”

"Nope." Liu Ye shook his head, but then added: "However, the Ordnance Department is in the process of development, and maybe in another year or two, a better bow and crossbow can be developed." ”

Liu Bei, who was on the side, also spoke: "In the future, our army will have a giant crossbow that can fire ten arrows in a row and have a range of hundreds of steps. This crossbow is not only capable of firing in bursts, but can even shoot through the armor of the Iron Float. ”

In the process of building the weapon, Liu Bei also gave valuable advice, telling the structure of the "Zhuge Repeater" built by Zhuge Liang in his previous life.

In his previous life, he only had Bashu and Jingzhou, and he could not train a strong cavalry, so he could only start with bows and crossbows, so as not to suffer losses in the face of the Northern Metro Cavalry.

While they were talking, the soldiers came to report.

"Prime Minister Qi, the enemy army is retreating, General Zhao Yun and General Lu Bu are following and pursuing."

Liu Bei's eyes flashed: "Is the enemy retreating partially, or is the whole army retreating?" ”

"Prime Minister, the enemy army is retreating."

"Let's go down."

Liu Bei slowly drew out his male and female swords, and said in a loud voice: "The three armies listen to the order, kill!" ”

At the sound of an order, tens of thousands of troops slaughtered in a mighty manner.

On the other side, Sun Jian, who was in charge of the broken end, was fighting with Lu Bu and Zhao Yun.

He originally thought that this was just an ordinary post-mortem mission, but after the battle, he found that the combat power of the Bingzhou army was stronger than that of the Xiliang army.

"My lord, the offensive of the state army is too fierce, and our army is afraid that it will be difficult to hold for a long time." In the chaos of the army, Cheng Pu found Sun Jian.

"If you can't keep it, you have to keep it!"

"Lord!"

"I have made a military order in front of Yuan Gong, and I will definitely block the pursuers for him."

As soon as the words fell, several soldiers of the Bingzhou Army surrounded and killed.

Sun Jian's face was grim, and he waved the blood-stained broadsword in his hand, killing several people in an instant.

However, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw a fiery red figure coming towards him.

Red armor, red cloak, the war horse under his crotch seems to be bleeding, who else can it be besides Lu Bu?

The world calls him the tiger, Sun Jian is known as the Jiangdong Tiger, but one mountain does not allow two tigers, he has been staring at Sun Jian's flag from the beginning.

Sun Jian was not to be outdone, and rode his horse to meet him.

However, he didn't dare to have the slightest contempt in his heart, and the sweaty BMW was not something that anyone could control.

While!

With a crisp collision sound, the two staggered past.

Sun Jian was amazed by the strength of the other party's arm, and Lu Bu had a happy smile on his face.

The literati pursue like-minded people, and there are fewer drinks for a thousand confidants.

Warriors like evenly matched opponents, and regard battlefield battles as one of life's great pleasures.

A moment later, the two had fought nearly Lily, but there was no winner.

At the same time, Zhao Yun on the other side also met the little overlord Sun Ce.

Young people are full of enthusiasm and are determined to capture the flag and make contributions. What's more, Sun Ce's father is the tiger Sun Jian, who is known for his bravery, and he has had the dream of inheriting his father's prestige since he was a child.

It's a pity that he found the wrong opponent.

After only a dozen rendezvous, he couldn't withstand Zhao Yun's stormy offensive.

The most annoying thing is that the other party also showed an appreciative look.

"Boy, what's your name? At such an age, it can last so long in my hands, and the martial arts are really good. ”

Zhao Yun's praise was a great humiliation in Sun Ce's eyes.

The other party doesn't look much older than him, and he may even be just the same age, but his martial arts are close to his father, especially the pistol technique, which is too fast to parry.

Sun Ce held his spear high and said coldly: "Hmph, enemy general, why are you wearing our army's battle armor?" ”

Zhao Yun was suddenly a little depressed when he heard this, he has always liked white clothes and white armor, and he was ridiculed before because of the similarity between his clothes and armor and white horse Yicong, and now he met Jiangdong Jun who was also wearing white armor, which was really embarrassing.

"Boy, look at the gun."

Zhao Yun didn't want to continue to dwell on this issue, although he recognized the young man's martial arts, the two sides were in different camps after all.

After more than a dozen rounds, Sun Ce was already in danger, but fortunately, Huang Gai came out from the side in time to relieve him a lot of pressure.

Zhao Yun did not fall behind at all with one enemy and two enemies, and when he was fighting, the sound of Mingjin suddenly came from behind him.

He has always attached importance to military law, decisively wielded a spear to force the two to retreat, and led the army to retreat.

Don't forget to leave a sentence before leaving.

"Boy, go back and practice martial arts well, no one will necessarily save you next time."

After saying that, he laughed and left, leaving Sun Ce with a sad and angry face standing in place.

Huang Gai comforted: "The eldest prince doesn't have to mind, this person may just look young, and he should be much older than you." As long as you practice martial arts diligently, you can defeat him sooner or later. ”

Sun Ce is even more angry, do you mean that I look old?

Lu Bu originally wanted to separate the victory and defeat with Sun Jian, but after hearing the sound of Mingjin, he had to lead the army to retreat.

"Why did the enemy retreat?" Cheng Pu watched the Bingzhou army retreat like a tide, and there was a trace of doubt on his face.

In this bloody battle, the state army has the upper hand, and in the end, it must be them who lose.

Sun Jian stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his face, and said in a deep voice: "Either they don't plan to continue the pursuit, or ...... The next opponent is even stronger. ”

He suddenly realized that it was premeditated for Yuan Shu to let him break off.

The next moment, there was a tremor of shaking the ground under his feet, and a cavalry army with men and horses and armor came into view.

The heavy armor that wraps around the whole body brings a sense of mystery, and the exposed eyes seem to be shining with a sharp edge.

Cheng Pu lost his voice and said: "This ...... Could it be the strongest Tiefu Tu under Liu Bei? ”

At the beginning, the battle between the Bingzhou Army and the Xiliang Army attracted widespread attention, and the name of Tiefutu also spread.

Although Sun Jian didn't know the specific appearance of Tiefutu, he had heard of this name.

"Yuan Shu, you are taking my Jiangdong disciples as a sacrifice!"

Sun Jian slashed to the ground angrily, but he had to lead the army to continue the battle.

It's just that when he looked around, the faces of the soldiers under his command were all deeply tired.

With just one charge, this tired army was crushed.

……

"Shameless Yuan Highway!"

Thanks to Xia Jianxian for the reward.
