But after all, Xu Huang repelled the enemy general with an axe, and the opposing soldiers saw that their leader was defeated, how could they dare to continue to step forward, the hula tide generally retreated, Xu Huang slapped his horse back to the battle, and went to join Zhang Xiu.

When Zhang Xiu saw Xu Huang coming back, he didn't understand Fang Cai's situation, and immediately asked, "What?" I saw that General Komeito's axe had clearly been cut down, why didn't he remove that guy's arm? ”

Xu Huang shook his head and said with a long sigh: "Look." With that, Xu Huang raised the battle axe and pointed the blade at Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu looked at it at a glance and immediately made it clear that Xu Huang's battle axe had been curled up! Although Xu Huang's battle axe is not a magic weapon, it is also carefully crafted, and the quality should be guaranteed. It's unacceptable.

The two did not dare to delay, and temporarily led the army back to Xucheng, and then closed the city gate, held on, and waited for Chen Yan's reinforcements to arrive.

After this battle, although Zhang Xiu and Xu Huang did not lose too many men and horses, but after a careful inspection, the weapons of the soldiers were more or less damaged, the most serious was the spear head of the Hanfeng battalion, which was originally sharp, and the sturdiness was poor, coupled with the strong impact of the cavalry, it gave a lot of pressure to the spearhead.

Now that I have checked it, I can't help but have many gun heads that have been blunted, and even worse, some of them have been damaged and cannot continue fighting.

When Zhang Xiu saw this, he couldn't help but gasp and sat on the ground. Thanks to Xu Huang coming to the rescue in time, otherwise I am afraid that my Hanfeng battalion will suffer a big defeat soon!

The more Zhang Xiu looked at it, the more shocked he became, and his face became more and more pale, and suddenly he felt a pair of thick palms pat his shoulder, and he turned around and saw Xu Huang standing behind him with a solemn face.

"General Komeito?" Zhang Xiu hurriedly stood up.

Xu Huang nodded, and said with a wry smile: "Presumably General Zhang Xiu also saw it, after a big battle between us and Ji Ling, the extent of damage to the weapon is simply unimaginable." ”

Zhang Xiu still didn't seem to know what to do, frowned and said, "I don't know why?" ”

Xu Huang sighed and said slowly: "This matter is ashamed, it is precisely because the 300,000 troops under the command of Ji Ling are all wearing metal armor, either bronze or iron, how can our soldiers' weapons not be greatly worn out?" ”

Hearing this, Zhang Xiu finally came to his senses. I think that since Zhang Xiu joined the army, all he has encountered is nothing more than some rabble, except for the Xiliang Army under Dong Zhuo, where he used to be, was more advanced, and the rest of the Yellow Turban Thieves and the like didn't even have leather armor, but they just wore armor made of vines and went into battle......

What's more, when Dong Zhuo was at his strongest, the soldiers under his command were not as extravagant as Ji Ling's subordinates, everyone wore iron weapons! It can be seen that the wealth of the Yuan brothers is really unimaginable!

Zhang Xiu realized the seriousness of the problem, stomped his feet and sighed: "Since this is the case, what can be done about it?" Now that our weapons are so badly worn, and Xu Cheng has just been captured, there are very few iron materials and craftsmen in the city, how can we face these well-equipped troops like Yuan Shu? ”

Xu Huang frowned and asked, "The pikemen of the Hanfeng battalion are very good at armor-piercing, how is the loss of spears now?" ”

When Zhang Xiu heard this, he couldn't help but sigh again, and said: "The spear is a fragile thing, and the cavalry has a very strong charging power, and now under the consumption, about one percent of the guns can no longer be used." ”

After Xu Huang heard "Yicheng", his face eased slightly, after all, the number of Yicheng was acceptable to him, which at least showed that he was not without a chance of winning against Yuan Shu's local tyrant troops.

Xu Huang obviously showed a happy expression on his face, and immediately said: "This is a good thing, I still have a lot of spears in the city, if the general needs it, they can be used to support the Hanfeng battalion!" Because only the shock ability and armor-piercing ability of the Cold Front Battalion could pose a mortal threat to Yuan Shu's army, after a battle just now, I found that it was difficult for ordinary infantry to kill their army in a single blow. ”

Xu Huang is right, leading defensive equipment is indeed a key to victory in battle, think about it, on the battlefield, two soldiers have decided life and death is often a matter of an instant, one face, if a knife can not result in the other party, then he is very likely to be killed by the enemy with a knife.

And Yuan Shu's army has quite strong defense, which has become the secret to improving survivability and thus increasing the odds of winning!

Every soldier of Yuan Shujun's army had several more chances of survival than Chen Yanjun's army, so it was clear which of the two armies had the upper hand at a glance.

Therefore, if you want to defeat Yuan Shu's army, the best way is to rely on the excellent impact ability of Zhang Xiu's pikemen, and the other is to rely on Huang Zhong's 8,000 iron cavalry that has not yet arrived.

After all, on the plain, the excellent cavalry team is still the most offensive weapon, and Yuan Shu's ironclad soldiers seem to be the strongest shield, without a strong spear, it can't be penetrated at all.

……

At this time, in Shouchun City, in a magnificent state capital, endless maids were running in the courtyard, and the scene was so prosperous that it almost surpassed the palace of Chang'an City.

At this time, it is spring, it is the season when the grass grows and the warbler flies, and the spring flowers are blooming.

In a huge pavilion in the courtyard, a man in a python robe was twisting his beard and smiling, this person was middle-aged, he looked about forty years old, his skin was very well maintained, shiny, fair and firm.

And his face is also very handsome, he can be regarded as a dignified appearance, a talent, from his behavior, it can be seen that this person is from a good background, but a large family with strict education.

Only this person's eyes always reveal an arrogant and violent look that is difficult to hide from time to time, although it is only for a moment, but it is unforgettable.

Needless to say, this person is the world's most powerful hero, Huainan Yuan Shu of the fourth world and the third duke.

Yuan Shu's eyes were staring closely at a box on the table, this box was made of fine sandalwood, and it was inlaid with seven gemstones in the shape of seven stars, and the opposite of the seven stars was embedded with a small night pearl, looking from afar, just like the night sky in the north.

The boxes are so well-made, so what kind of treasure is there in this box?!

Yuan Shu smiled slightly, his slender hand slowly stroked the treasure box, and said to the two people beside him: "Li Feng, Yang Hong, you two think that I got this treasure, is it a hint from God?" ”
