It wasn't until they used their hands and feet together, climbed the long ladder, and finally squeezed into the camp, and when they began to look for the entrance to continue into the inner camp in confusion, a light suddenly lit up in the center of the camp!

The pontoon bridges on all sides of the inner camp were lowered, and at the same time, the sunlight finally burst out of the dark clouds.

That was actually not the real sunshine, it was Yuan Shao's heavy cavalry - the glorious armor on the cavalry, and the iron armor on the war horse.

It was at this time that the countless heavy cavalry raised their hooves when the three soldiers and horses had completely abandoned their formation and were huddled together.

Chapter 492

What is Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses like?

Before today, except for Zhang Xiu, who had fought all the way through the three and was therefore prepared, the other two were completely conjecture to outline an outline.

For example, those small number of sentinels, such as those people, and then Lu Lian.

Her record is indeed very strong, so not only Zhang Xiu thinks she is a shrewd and tough person, but even Cai Mao thought so before she saw her.

Liu Xun has dealt with her, but he is a person who is very unwilling to tell those embarrassing things.

When Cai Mao and Zhang Xiu asked about him, he said a few vague and perfunctory words.

"In my opinion, how old is she, how can she do that? It's just that General Liu Beijun pitied her for her youth, so he attributed his reputation to her. ”

Cai Mao touched her beard and felt that something was wrong.

But Zhang Xiu is more straightforward, "How can you despise her because she is young?" When the champion Hou drank Ma Hanhai, it was only the year of the weak crown! ”

There seemed to be a trace of resentment and a hint of contempt on that white and chubby face, but in the end, he still held the posture of the elders well.

"When you see her, you will judge for yourselves."

After seeing Lu Lian, Zhang Xiu and Cai Mao were indeed surprised.

Lu Lian is indeed not a shrewd person, she is a very casual, even a little naïve young man, she doesn't like to socialize with people, and from time to time she will say something stupid, do something stupid, don't behave like a general, and be a scholar is very reluctant.

So how could such a person lead a large army and block Yuan Shao north of the Yellow River for more than half a year?

She doesn't seem to have any prestige, no scheming, no decisiveness, no anger and self-authority, how can the soldiers be convinced of such a person?

So Cai Mao also quietly found another answer in his heart: Is it that the Jizhou army is strong outside the army, and if the Jingzhou soldiers come to the Central Plains, the record will only be better than Lu Lian?

His soldiers are indeed good soldiers in Jingzhou, and when Liu Xian rode into Jingzhou and cleaned up the surrounding thieves, his troops also contributed a lot.

…… As for Cao Cao's southward journey, Zhang Xiu, who guarded Wancheng for Liu Biao, retreated step by step, lost his armor, and even lost his aunt to Cao Cao, it was all because Zhang Xiu's Xiliang army was vulnerable! It has nothing to do with them Jingzhou!

These lingered in his mind, the slightest wisp of persuasion to him, and the voice that bewitched him finally became clear when Cai Mao came to the camp and saw Liu Xun's Lujiang soldiers attacking the camp with his own eyes: That's right! What Lu Lian can do, they can do too!

And maybe even better!

This is how his Jingzhou army rushed forward, and then the pontoon bridge in the inner camp was lowered-

At that moment, Cai Mao's heart suddenly stopped!

When it was back in beating, it became extremely rapid and panicked!

He had never seen anything like it! Those horses were fat and strong, and their hooves were bigger than a soldier's head! It's even heavier!

The iron cloak on the war horse shone in the sun, and after it was connected, it was a large piece of brilliance!

Who would make such armor for a war horse?! The pieces of armor are all bright and shiny! Put it in Jingzhou, that is the armor that the Zhonglang generals of 300 stones can't wear!

He watched as the war horses in horse armor rushed over, raised their iron hooves, and trampled on the bodies of the Lujiang soldiers, and the heavy cavalry on the horses waved their long soldiers.

Riveting with full strength, swinging roundly, like a meteor, like a sickle, wherever the cold light went, there were patches of blood splashed.

The screams, the noise, and the neighing of the war horses were all mixed with the Jin Cheng behind him and the war drums in front of him!

Cai Mao was still stunned for a while.

He is a very calm civil official, and he can also come up with some decisive ideas for the lord, so he has a little confidence and courage to replace the old and frail Liu Biao, and the gentle and cowardly Liu Qi, to earn a little war for Jingzhou.

This is not only for himself, for the Cai family, but also for Jingzhou, and for his sister who married Liu Biao as a stepmother.

But at this moment, all the things that are very clear cannot be understood.

All around him was sounds, blood, banners and fire, and the cold light of armor bursting out of the chaos crowd.

In the chaos, the people of Xiliang had already reacted quickly.

Those voices that are very different from the official dialect of the Central Plains and the accent of Jingxiang roared on the battlefield:

"Long card! Long card! ”

"Spearmen forward! Spearmen forward! ”

"Bring the waist crossbow up! Bring it up! ”

Cai Mao suddenly woke up, and he grabbed the deputy general beside him, "Let's! We also have long card soldiers! Fast! Hurry up and give the order to stop those cavalry! ”

The lieutenant beside him, who was wearing old armor and couldn't even compare to horse armor, shook his head:

"Strategist, we have to withdraw."

Cai Mao looked at him fiercely, "The three soldiers and horses are far superior to the enemy army, why do you want to withdraw!" ”

"If the cavalry tramples and impacts, the front army will be defeated," Huang Zhong said calmly, "Although the Xiliang soldiers are brave, they can't stop it." ”

Huang Zhong's voice was low and indistinct, mixed with this rumbling battlefield, and it was almost impossible to hear clearly.

He looks just as ordinary, and he seems to be able to blend into this background without paying attention.

But his words seem to have power, and the battlefield is beginning to change as he says it is.

The Lujiang soldiers in the front row were trampled down and hacked to death, but there were still endless soldiers in the back, if they were not afraid of death, they could use the long contradiction card and their own bodies to make the simplest fortifications to block the pace of the cavalry.

…… But how could such a thing happen?

The soldiers in the front row were cut down by the sickle piece by piece like heavy ears of wheat, and the soldiers behind immediately and unconsciously took a few steps back.

Some of the officers who were overseeing the battle shouted insults and told them to move on.

But as the heavy cavalry continued to advance, the Warseer quietly stepped back a few steps.

Morale collapsed immediately.

First retreated, then turned around, the people in front wanted to escape, but there was still no reason behind them, and they continued to crowd and squeeze forward.

I don't know where the voice burst out from which corner, and it quickly spread across the battlefield-

"Defeated!"

"Our army is defeated!"

The one behind finally heard it clearly, and turned around and began to flee!

…… But how can it be so easy to escape?

A two-legged one can't outrun a four-legged one, not to mention that this is in a camp!

Someone fell, someone was pushed down by someone else, or even tripped over, and the people behind immediately stepped on him, foot after foot, and stomped on his head, body, legs, until the sound of horses' hooves got closer and closer!

But it's not fast enough to step on the body of your companion and run out! There are too many people in front, and the camp of the Jizhou people is so strong!

Finally, a gate was lowered, and the crowd poured out like a flood!

The heavy cavalry is about to be killed! Hurry up! Faster!

Why hasn't the person in front fallen yet! You can't push it down, you can't kick it down!

The man behind pulled out his long knife and stabbed his comrade in the back!

They are front and rear rows, if not a team, at least one or one battalion, and they must be very familiar with them in normal times.

Before this day, they would secretly chat during the day's march, about their own family, about each other's family, about their officials, about this year's harvest.

Most of them are villagers and may even be brothers of the same surname and clan.

If the village is bullied by other villages, they are the closest comrades-in-arms, and they will fight side by side, even if they are willing to die for each other!

——These Lujiang soldiers have thought so since they were children, until a brilliance more dazzling than the sun rose from Yuan Shao's heavy cavalry, and they finally gave up this last bit of self-esteem and glory, as well as the persistence of "people".

There were not many Lujiang soldiers who were really killed by the cavalry, only about 12 out of 10, but there were 34 out of 10 who trampled on each other and even killed each other.

Even Liu Xun, who was sitting in the car, was gone, and only panicked remained.

The flag had fallen, the flag soldier had fled, he didn't seem to care at all, his hands firmly grasped the railing, his eyes straight to the ground, looking forward for a while, looking back for a while.

The coachman drove the car, naturally much faster than the two-legged soldiers, and in an instant, he ran back to the military formation of the Xiliang Army from the camp of the Jizhou people.

Obviously, at such a critical moment, he never ran a step with his two legs, but his white and chubby little face turned purple, sweat and tears in the winter, his face was full of shiny water droplets, and he couldn't even make a reliable sound, only whimpering there, not knowing what he wanted to vomit in his throat and eyes.

Zhang Xiu frowned.

If Liu Xun was the only one who came over, it wouldn't matter.

But the rout was like a tide, and it quickly swept towards the Xiliang army, which was very troublesome.

Eventually, he gave the order:

"Pass the order to those Lujiang soldiers, and those who come close will be killed!"

"Whoever is close to him!"

"Whoever is close to him!"

When such a voice erupted from the military formation of the Xiliang soldiers, Liu Xun finally spit out a scream in his throat!

Zhang Xiu glanced at him.

The Lujiang Taishou, who was wearing armor inside and a brocade robe on the outside, and the flowers on the brocade robe were blooming one after another, not to mention the fresh and tender water spirit under the clear sky in early winter, and even the robe was smoked with the fragrance of flowers, and finally held back.

He did not quarrel with his friendly army like another military general who faced "General Zhang", but covered his mouth with his white and delicate, fat and cute little hand, and whimpered and cried.

Liu Xun's army can no longer be saved, it depends on how many remnants can be collected after the war - this is the idea of Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong's unification.

But the difference between the two is that Zhang Xiu's Xiliang soldiers set up a position and continue to march inward, preparing to meet the impact of the rout, and have a real battle with the Jizhou heavy cavalry.

Huang Zhong, who temporarily took over the army from Cai Mao, ordered to go down and use the wagons in the middle of the main road outside the camp as simple fortifications, and to lay the thousands of soldiers behind the wagons.

Cai Mao was a little embarrassed, a little nervous, and a little confused.

But he decided now that even if there was no Lu Lian around him to rely on, since this inconspicuous man had suffered from Lu Lian's blue eyes, it would be okay to use him as a little Lu Lian.
