Chapter 296 Black Torrent Xiliang Cavalry
Because the first sword in his hand was broken, the morale of many Han troops began to decline. This was also noticed by Guan Yu who arrived on the battlefield.
The most intuitive manifestation of low morale is that the formation of the Han army's front army began to riot.
It's just that this point was already expected by Guan Yu.
Having fought against many famous Cao Wei generals, he currently has an extremely keen sense of everything that happens on the battlefield.
Precisely because he expected this, Guan Yu led 30,000 Han reinforcements to arrive at the right time.
The morale of the Han army began to decline suddenly, simply because of problems with the weapons in their hands, and this problem currently only existed in Zhang Fei's former army, which had been fighting for a long time.
The 30,000 Han troops led by Guan Yu who had just joined the battlefield did not have this problem, nor would their morale drop as a result.
So after Guan Yu led 30,000 Han troops to join the battlefield, he immediately relied on his strong personal prestige and superb command skills to use the 30,000 Han troops he brought as a new force to step forward and replace Zhang Fei's front troops one after another.
military.
There is no need to completely replace it, only a certain amount of fresh troops should be added to the Han army in front.
So in a short period of time, no matter how brave the 30,000 Cao Wei army was, they would not be able to break through the Han army's defense line.
But now, even if Guan Yu leads 30,000 troops to the scene, the morale of the Han army has been greatly affected after that scene.
Therefore, the situation that was already leaning towards the Wei army became clearer.
The current situation on the battlefield is no longer that the two armies are fighting each other, but that the Wei army is taking a fierce offensive and constantly attacking the Han army's defense line.
Guan Yu's approach can only cure the symptoms but not the root cause.
Because as time goes by, the 30,000 Han troops who have just joined the battlefield will also face the same danger that Zhang Fei's former army faced just now. By then, the defeat of the Han army will be inevitable.
But now this is the only way.
When the war between the two sides reaches this stage, as long as any battlefield or any general shows signs of retreat, it may cause the collapse of one's own army.
After temporarily stabilizing his own formation through superb command, Guan Yu saw Zhang Liao's movements.
After sensing Zhang Liao's intentions, Guan Yu made a decisive decision and led hundreds of Yulin troops to withdraw from the rear of the battlefield.
Because he had been watching Zhang Liao's movements, Guan Yu did not easily enter his own formation.
When hundreds of Yulin troops followed Guan Yu out of the battle, they quickly arrived under the leadership of Guan Yu. Zhang Liao intended to lead his troops to advance into the flank of the Han army.
After the Yulin Army, no, or rather the Baijie Army, followed Guan Yu to this flank in advance, they quickly formed a formation under Guan Yu's command.
The Han army, which was originally located on the flank here, felt fear in their hearts when they saw eight hundred enemy troops in fine armor coming towards them.
But after they saw a majestic figure guarding their periphery, that proud figure on horseback immediately made their hearts calm.
The infantry of the Han family should be personally guarded by the general of the Han family.
Guan Yu, who was standing in front of the formation, looked at the eight hundred Wei troops who were approaching quickly, all with well-equipped armor and fighting equipment, and there was a look of reminiscence in his eyes.
The attire of the 800 Wei troops looked very much like Lu Bu's powerful army - the trapped camp.
Originally, Guan Yu thought that as Gao Shun died loyal to his master, that powerful soldier in the world would also disappear from the world, but he did not expect that he would see it again today.
It’s just normal to think about it.
At that time, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao were both generals under Lu Bu, and they often led armies together on expeditions. It is not surprising that Zhang Liao knew the training methods of the trapped camp.
But when Guan Yu turned his attention to the flags displayed by the eight hundred Wei troops, his eyes became disdainful.
Huben? Is this title worthy of Wei?
Huben was originally the collective name for the strongest combat power of the Han Dynasty, but now it appears on the soldiers of the Wei Dynasty who usurped the foundation of the Han Dynasty. It is really a great irony.
The white soldiers behind him are the real tiger warriors!
But this also made the fighting spirit in Guan Yu's heart boil.
He raised the long knife in his hand, his eyes gradually became fierce as he looked at the knife, and then he pointed the long knife in his hand at the enemy in front.
He slashed at the captives with his own sword and wiped out all the disloyalty in the world.
Guan Yu was ready and pointed his sword at him, which was clearly seen by Zhang Liao who was getting closer and closer.
This didn't surprise him.
He didn't feel any fear in his heart.
Guan Yu is an enemy of ten thousand people, so isn't Zhang Liao a fierce general in the world?
Moreover, Zhang Liao had strong confidence in the eight hundred tiger warriors behind him.
The predecessors of these eight hundred tiger warriors were trapped in the camp and defeated Liu, Guan, and Zhang in a field battle.
What Gao Shun could do back then, why can't Zhang Liao do it today?
Now Zhang Liao's thought was to wave the halberd in his hand and crush all the enemies in front of him.
Under the high-speed galloping of the war horses, the collision of halberds and long knives soon resounded in the ears of Zhang Liao and Guan Yu.
And just after this blow, Zhang Liao and Guan Yu passed by on the wrong horse one after another.
The two men who passed by the wrong horse quickly turned their horses' heads and turned around to kill each other quickly.
Soon after, the elite infantry led by both sides also formed a formation and violently collided with each other.
They are both fully armed heavy armored infantry, and they are both the strongest armies in the world that have experienced countless battles.
The moment these two powerful armies meet, it represents the beginning of a fight to the death.
At this time, next to the huge battlefield where tens of thousands of troops were fighting each other, a small-scale battle that was more dangerous or more important than any other battlefield was taking place.
However, as Guan Yu successfully blocked Zhang Liao's offensive, Zhang Liao's plan had undoubtedly failed.
The Eight Great Tiger Ministers of Jiang Biao, who were praised by Sun Quan back then, could not stop Zhang Liao, but today Guan Yu alone is enough.
Zhang Liao wanted to replicate the classic battle examples of that year through personal bravery, but it was not feasible for Guan Yu, who had both military and military unification.
And when Guan Yu successfully blocked the attack of the Wei Dynasty's "Zhao Hu", because of the identities of the two generals in this battle, in the battlefield of tens of thousands of troops not far away, soldiers from both sides were constantly appearing among the generals.
Under his command, he came towards this battlefield.
Obviously, as Guan Yu and Zhang Liao faced off in person, everyone in the entire battlefield regarded the battlefield where the two were located as the final decisive point of today's battle.
The final outcome is about to be decided.
The Han army's camp was more than ten miles away from the battlefield.
And while the armies of both sides were fighting fiercely more than ten miles away, on the vast field of the Han army camp, a general wearing fine armor and a mighty helmet was squatting on the ground as if thinking about something.
This general is Ma Chao, who has never played in a game.
At this moment, on the ground under Ma Chao's feet, what he placed with stones were the two battlefields of Zhang Fei and Mi Yang, which were more than ten miles away.
Ma Chao kept his eyes fixed on Zhang Liao's army behind the two battlefields.
In his eyes, there was no melancholy in the past at this time, but instead exuded an overflowing look.
And this kind of look had not appeared in his eyes for a long time.
Ever since Guan Yu led his troops out of camp in the early morning, he had been waiting for an opportunity when he could lead his cavalry to attack.
Long before Guan Yu led the army to set off, Guan Yu taught him four words:
The camera moves.
These four words of Guan Yu represent that he completely handed over the command of the cavalry to Ma Chao without imposing any constraints.
Guan Yu did this to show his trust in Ma Chao.
Guan Yu trusted that Ma Chao, as a peerless cavalry general, would have his own unique insights into when the cavalry should attack.
Guan Yu also trusted Ma Chao and would not abandon him when he needed him.
Guan Yu's trust is a bit strange.
He himself disdained people like Ma Chao, but after Ma Chao was verified by Liu Bei, Guan Yu would trust Ma Chao without hesitation.
It's just that this strange trust is often played out among Ji Han.
Maybe this kind of trust is also helpless.
It is already weak to begin with, and if it can no longer unite all forces, then the only thing that awaits in the end is destruction.
And now Ma Chao has no intention of betraying Guan Yu's trust, because his personal interests are now tied to today's war.
Perhaps Ma Chao himself has an extremely impulsive personality, but when he is commanding the cavalry, his head becomes terrifyingly calm.
Ma Chao knew that in order to maximize the effect of cavalry, the timing of the cavalry attack was crucial.
Therefore, even if news continued to come from the front that his own army was at a disadvantage, Ma Chao was still calmly waiting for that opportunity.
While Ma Chao waited patiently, the Qiang Di scouts who had just returned reported four words to Ma Chao:
"Zhang Liao has moved."
When Ma Chao heard these four words, a smile appeared on his lips.
Not the wry smile of the past, but a sneer.
The prey finally took the bait.
After receiving this information, Ma Chao threw all the stones in his hands on the ground, then stood up from the ground with a flick of his cloak.
And what was in front of him at this time was the alien cavalry with more than 3,000 men and horses, all wearing black armor!
More than three thousand foreign cavalry stood under their horses, looking at the man in front of them with bloodthirsty and fanatical eyes.
They were supposed to be alien cavalry with extremely poor discipline, but in front of this man, they did not dare to make the slightest movement or noise.
They were in deep fear of the man in front of them.
Ma Chao looked at the motionless three thousand cavalry in front of him, and then he got on his horse without hesitation.
The extremely black cloak drew a beautiful arc in the air as Ma Chao mounted his horse.
When Ma Chao sat on the horse, the more than 3,000 foreign cavalry behind him also jumped onto their horses in uniform movements.
For these more than three thousand foreign cavalry, animals like horses are even more familiar to them than their relatives.
After hearing that more than 3,000 foreign cavalrymen behind him had mounted their horses, Ma Chao raised his horse spear high.
He did not issue any orders, but just drove the war horse under his crotch to gallop quickly outside the camp.
And as Ma Chao galloped out like a meteor, the three thousand foreign cavalry behind him, one man and two horses, also turned into meteors and galloped away behind Ma Chao.
Perhaps in the camp, the three thousand alien cavalry led by Ma Chao still cannot let go of their speed.
But after these three thousand alien cavalry stepped out of the camp, what appeared in front of them was a vast and endless plain.
Ma Chao is matched with the iron cavalry, and the iron cavalry is matched with the plains. What kind of combination is this?
It’s a combination that makes men’s blood boil the most.
When the three thousand alien cavalry entered the plains, the speed of these three thousand alien cavalry suddenly increased by several levels.
Originally, no matter how powerful the cavalry was in the world, few cavalry could fully utilize the speed of war horses because they did not have the assistance of bilateral stirrups.
But this concern will not appear on the three thousand foreign cavalry led by Ma Chao.
From the day they were born, they were born to be cavalry.
When the three thousand alien cavalry completely let go of their speed, they were no longer a bright meteor.
They turned into light filled with the aura of death and were speeding towards their destination.
Ma Chao rode his horse and galloped at the front of the three thousand cavalry.
He felt the scenery rushing by beside him, felt the high speed brought by the war horse under his crotch, and felt that a memory in his blood was slowly awakening.
He couldn't help but raise the horse in his hand, and immediately let out bursts of cheers.
As Ma Chao did this, the more than 3,000 foreign cavalrymen behind him also began to cheer.
Thousands of cheers caused Ma Chao's whole demeanor to undergo a huge change.
The listlessness, hesitation and self-injury no longer exist.
Ma Chao's aura now can only be described as fierce, the kind of fierceness that would make anyone's heart palpitate when they see him.
Now he is no longer an unfilial son who was spurned by thousands of people, and he is no longer a thug who made hundreds of thousands of people in Guanzhong homeless.
Now he is called General Shenweitian.
The distance of more than ten miles would not take long for the more than 3,000 foreign cavalry to reach at a rapid speed.
Soon after, three thousand foreign cavalry led by Ma Chao had arrived several miles away from the battlefield.
At this moment, the Wei army in Mi Yang, the battlefield closest to the three thousand foreign cavalry, was the first to feel that something was wrong.
Why do you feel the vibration on the ground?
At this time, the Wei army led by Sun Li and the Han army led by Mi Yang were fighting to the last moment. The armies on both sides were unable to cry out killing cries because of fatigue.
So as the subtle vibrations became stronger and stronger, Sun Li, who originally thought it was an illusion, heard some sounds that he thought were a bit ridiculous.
The sound of hooves caused by thousands of cavalry running at high speed, and the noise of alien races that could only appear at the border.
But now we are outside Fancheng, and Zhang He, the left general from Guanzhong, has not yet arrived, so how could such a sound appear here?
Just when Sun Li was hesitant, a guard next to him suddenly pointed to a place and made a voice of extreme fear:
"Xiliang, Xiliang cavalry!"
After hearing these words, Sun Li immediately looked towards the finger of the personal guard.
When he saw the situation there, even Sun Li had a look of horror on his face.
A black torrent carrying countless smoke and dust appeared from behind a hillside, and then quickly rushed towards their location.
The most frightening thing is that in that black torrent is the banner of "Xiliang Iron Cavalry".
Now that the Guanzhong warlords have been wiped out by Cao Cao, whose cavalry in the world can be called Xiliang Iron Cavalry?
A fear that was buried deep in memory quickly awakened from the depths of the souls of many Wei soldiers.
The Jin Ma Chao who killed them all back then is back.
good night everybody.
