Chapter 152: Zhaolie (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Liu and Guan's troops gathered an army of 70,000, but when they met Zhao Yun's troops in Xiquyang, there were less than 50,000 left.
The degree of sloppiness in the morale of the army made Liu Guan and the others unexpected.
This also cast a shadow over their war.
At this time, Liu Bei and Guan Yu were no longer very sure that these soldiers under their command could defeat Zhao Yun's troops, and the only chance for victory was to kill Zhao Yun.
The two armies faced each other, and Guan Yu rushed straight to Zhao Yun with a spear in hand - his Qinglong Yanyue Knife was obtained by Hua Xiong because of his defeat in the Battle of Sour Jujube, and was given to his life-saving benefactor Huang Zhong, which caused Guan Yu to only be able to change one weapon.
"Zhao Yunxiaoer, I am Guan Yu, Guan Yunchang, the general under Uncle Liu Huang, and I will die quickly!"
Seeing that Zhao Yun was a stone's throw away, Guan Yu, who had already established an impact speed advantage, shouted loudly.
However, what was waiting for Guan Yu was not Zhao Yun's horseback rushing, nor was he stretching his neck and waiting for death, but two hundred sharp arrows!
Of course, Zhao Yun is not afraid of rushing into battle alone, but Zhao Yun is not a fool who only has "stabbing you 10,000 transparent holes" in his head, he has always been very clear about his position, he is a commander, not a barbarian centurion, and what he does must be responsible for the victory of the war.
It's not the way you do, it's the most important thing to win.
The reason for killing Lu Xiang and Lu Kuang before was because they were also the commanders, and the banners and armor of the department were clear, which gave the defenders of Guangling City confidence, and if they couldn't break it in one fell swoop, it would affect the overall situation, so Zhao Yun was willing to take risks.
But this time, aren't you the defeated general of Huang Zhong's men? Although I do have strength, as the commander of 100,000 people, I can't fight everyone with me, right? And the enemy looks like they are coming from afar and their morale is low, which is a good time to defeat them in one fell swoop, so why should I play with this partial general and go head-to-head! It's almost as good as having the head coach of the family!
Partial general? Shoot them all!
The two hundred Yanyun archers under Zhao Yun's command took out heavy arrows at the same time and bent their bows to shoot over.
"Despicable!"
Guan Yu scolded angrily, but he couldn't dodge, the horse was shot dead on the spot, and he himself was hit by several arrows in the arm and other places.
"Second brother!"
Liu Bei was stunned by the sudden change, and he subconsciously hit his horse to save Guan Yu, but he was lucky to find that Zhao Yunjun did not continue to mend the knife.
I saw a white-robed and silver-armored young general in Zhao Yun's army come out of his horse, stand in front of the two armies, and shouted: "My general is the commander of a 100,000-strong army, how can he fight bravely and fiercely with an unknown horseman?" My general said, this time Liuer will wait for his life, please go back and quickly set up the formation, we will fight on the battlefield in a dignified manner! ”
"If you really want to go it alone, let the main general Liu Bei fight!"
"Of course, if you are afraid, quickly retreat and don't hinder us from going to Shouchun dinner!"
"Capture Yuan Benchu alive and eat Shouchun City!"
As soon as Chen Dao's words fell, Zhao Yun's 100,000 troops shouted at the same time. The sound shook the sky, and Liu Beijun trembled.
"Rats!"
Guan Yu, who had never suffered such a great humiliation, struggled to stand up, but because of his injuries, he fell to the ground again, but Liu Bei came in person and helped him to his horse.
"Big brother!"
Guan Yu was moved to tears.
He knew very well that if Zhao Yun's cavalry attacked at this time, neither of them would be able to escape.
But Liu Bei's attitude was very resolute, and he personally led the horse and escorted Guan Yu back to the battle.
After returning to the formation, seeing that Zhao Yun did not take the opportunity to fire arrows and did not wave his army to attack, he saluted Zhao Yun in the formation.
"Why did the general let the two go back?"
In Zhao Yun's array, Chen Deng and Chen Yuanlong were also a little puzzled.
"I don't fight with him, just because I'm the coach, he's a partial general, and it's useless to win, but if there is a little accident, it will affect the whole army! If it is Liu Bei, I will capture him alive! ”
"But since Liu Bei dares to come forward to save people in a dignified manner, he does not lose the heart of benevolence and righteousness and brotherhood, our army defeated Liu Bei's troops like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, just need to be upright, why do such things that damage the prestige of the lord!"
Zhao Yun gave his reasons.
Chen Deng's bows.
"Liu Bei sent his brother to challenge the general, I'm afraid there must be fraud, but Liu Bei's feelings for Guan Yu are rare!"
Chen Deng, who had a good relationship with Liu Bei, praised him.
"The benevolent master, but not the human master, let alone the talent of the general!"
Zhao Yun shook his head and commented lightly.
"Not the master!"
Chen Deng also sighed.
How can a man who is a master put his life at risk?
But if Zhao Yun had a little idea just now, Liu Bei and Guan Yu would die there, and then Zhao Yun would be an uninjured army again.
However, when it came to the human master, Chen Deng's thoughts couldn't help but drift to the distant Shouchun, he was very curious, what kind of personality charm and kingly spirit did the king of Chengdu have, so that Zhao Yun could impress such a perfect general!
[I really want to see that person's demeanor!] 】
Chen Deng said expectantly.
However, what Chen Deng didn't know was that the master he fantasized about in his heart at this moment was shirtless and blindfolded, playing a game of "you run in front, I will chase behind, if I let me catch you, you will let me hehehehe".
The soldiers are half dead in front of the army, and the beauties are still singing and dancing!
But Dong Huang is not just as simple as singing and dancing.
Dong Huang played more than the ancients.
If Zhao Yun could know Chen Deng's thoughts, his expression would probably be very exciting.
But one thing to say, a person like Dong Huang is really an impeccable monarch, suspicious, brutal, stubborn, micro-manipulative, pro-Yu Yuanxian and other shortcomings he has not had, on the contrary, not only to give the greatest trust to the general, but also to care and pamper in other aspects.
If there is anything that Dong Huang really wants to criticize Zhao Yun, it is Dong Huang's strange hobby of forcing generals to give birth to children. But then again, in ancient times, when the inheritance of the family was attached, caring about the heirs of the generals, not only gave the generals Zhang Luo's famous women as wives, but also gave fiefs, treasures, and beautiful women, and only asked his subordinates to have more children.
Zhao Yun shook his head, cut off his nonsense, and put his energy on the war.
On the other side, Liu Bei had already lined up in formation.
Liu Bei's military formation is a very traditional phalanx, each small army formation in the formation is square, the overall middle strength of the large array is relatively small, and the surrounding forces are biased towards important spearmen, in case of Zhao Yunjun's cavalry.
Zhao Yun did not engage in tricks, but listed a dignified conical formation, the arrows were Chen Zhi's Bai Yu soldiers and 10,000 Hu Ben troops as Dong Huang's personal guards, and the two wings arranged cavalry, waiting for the opportunity to expand the results.
At the beginning of the battle, Liu Bei's army was about to collapse, Chen Zhi's department directly killed Liu Bei's army, and the cavalry on both wings of Zhao Yun's army also took advantage of the situation to advance, and Liu Bei's department, which had no will to fight at all, could not resist at all, and I don't know who shouted "General Shenwei, I am willing to surrender", and then Hula surrendered a large area.
"Big brother, I'll cover you, you go quickly!"
Guan Yu, who had bandaged his wounds, desperately persuaded Liu Bei to escape.
Several of Liu Bei's personal soldiers also died to persuade Liu Bei.
However, Liu Bei, who is known for running away, is very resolute this time: "Since I started the army, I have lost the virtue first, and the brothers who followed me in Zhuojun have also suffered casualties. ”
"Since Dong Zhuo's rebellion, I have not heard of any clan children who shed blood because of Dong, and the reason why this country is not prosperous. Yes, please start with Xuande. ”
After that, Liu Bei slapped his horse and rushed to Zhao Yun: "I am Liu Xuande, the uncle of the Han Emperor, is the general of Dong Thief willing to fight me to the death?" ”
"Dong Thief ......"
Zhao Yun's eyes froze, now that the overall situation has been decided, Zhao Yun is not afraid of any accidents, and when he saw that Liu Bei dared to be disrespectful, he was immediately furious.
……
It's three chapters today, and I'll try to make five changes tomorrow
In the original outline, I wanted Liu Guan to vote for Liu Biao, designed Lu Bu to kill Liu Biao, and then Liu Bei and Cao Cao destroyed the plot of Lu Bu, but I felt that it was too deliberate, smelly and long, so it was deleted. Liu Bei and Guan Yu are heroes after all, and dying on the battlefield is their dignity, and it is not interesting to deliberately be a clown or stubborn.
