Chapter 51 Long live! Long live! (4000 words, please read and vote)
More than ten thousand cavalrymen ran at full speed and soon arrived at a mountain, forest and valley.
After arriving here, Xu Huang reined in his horse and looked at the deep, dark valley in front of him, worry rising in his heart unconsciously.
The name of this place is Yuling, which is a necessary place outside Fancheng to connect the north and the south.
Ulleung is actually a hill, but this hill has a strange landform. The mountain seems to have been split in half by a sword from some god.
Therefore, a passage was formed in the mountain of Ulleung.
This is a natural place suitable for setting up an ambush.
Xu Huang is a famous general. After setting up the plan to attack the east and attack the west, he secretly went out of the camp to observe the terrain here.
And on that day, he specially left a small group of soldiers and horses here to observe whether Guan Yu had set up an ambush here.
At this time, Xu Huang ordered people to find the people in the team.
And the people who went to look for it finally brought back the news that,
There is no ambush in Yuling.
After hearing the news, Xu Huang felt relieved.
Without further ado, after learning that there was no ambush in Yuling, Xu Huang hurriedly ordered his cavalry to pass through the dangerous area ahead.
Under Xu Huang's haste, the more than ten thousand cavalry behind him quickly passed through Yuling in a short time.
Seeing that all the athletes under his command were safe and sound, Xu Huangyu couldn't help but burst out laughing immediately after passing Yuling.
The last big stone in his heart finally fell.
The deputy general Xu Shang who was following him saw Xu Huang suddenly laughing and asked,
"Why is the general laughing?"
Xu Shang was his confidant, and Xu Huang wanted to teach him. He pointed to the Yuling Mountains behind him and replied,
"I laugh at Guan Yunchang's lack of plans. I will defeat him tonight!"
Seeing a puzzled look on Xu Shang's face, Xu Huang continued,
"Whenever cavalry and infantry are fighting, if they encounter mountains, forests, dangers, or swampy areas, and move quickly, they will be defeated. Do not fight."
"Those who wish to fight must find an easy ground where they can advance and retreat without hindrance, and the battle will be won."
"Therefore, the Art of War says: When changing places, use cavalry."
"There is this dangerous place outside Fan City today, but Guan Yunchang left it undefended, allowing my cavalry to pass through.
From now on, the cavalry under my command no longer have any fear, so how can Guan Yunchang remain undefeated?"
What Xu Huang said was not a lie. After passing through Ulleung, what awaited Xu Huang ahead was a wide plain area.
This can at least ensure that he will be able to survive the next night attack.
Move forward and retreat freely.
Seeing that there was no need to worry about his future, the last trace of hesitation in Xu Huang's heart disappeared.
He led more than 10,000 cavalry who were ready to go, and rushed towards Sizhongtun not far away.
What Xu Huang didn't know was that shortly after his army left Ulleung,
On the other side of Yuling, thousands of troops gradually appeared.
When he was about to arrive at Sizhongtun, Xu Huang no longer had to worry about the whereabouts of his army being known.
On the contrary, at this time, he had to not cover up his whereabouts.
Xu Huang ordered the army behind him to light the torches in their hands, and all the men and horses removed their restraints.
Suddenly, a few miles away from Sizhongtun, a long fire dragon appeared out of thin air on the ground.
At the same time, the roar of more than 10,000 horses and the shouts of more than 10,000 athletes also rose into the sky.
Guan Yu's sentries outside Sizhongtun immediately detected the situation, and they immediately rang the golden bells on the watchtower.
Soon after, the golden bells of Sizhong Tun were ringing loudly.
The word "enemy attack" that the sentry yelled at the top of his lungs was immediately buried in the sound of golden bells that filled the sky.
Seeing this scene, Xu Huang felt even more happy.
He felt that everything was developing according to his vision step by step.
What he brought this time was all cavalry. It was certainly inappropriate to rely on cavalry to attack a strong camp.
What he really wanted was to cause panic in Sizhong Village and make them ask Guan Yu for help.
This is Xu Huang's true purpose.
Just when Xu Huang led more than 10,000 cavalry troops to get closer and closer to Sizhong Tun, so close that he even ordered the cavalry troops behind him to shoot arrows, a huge change suddenly happened!
I saw that after the golden bell rang loudly in Sizhong Tun, there was no panic and noise in the camp as Xu Huang expected, but instead it was quiet and tight.
Then I saw a fire light up in Sizhong Tun. After a while, tens of thousands of torches quickly lit up in Sizhong Tun.
These tens of thousands of torches contrast with the tens of thousands of torches in the hands of Xu Huang's army not far outside the village.
The dark sky at this moment was illuminated like daylight.
Seeing this scene, Xu Huang was horrified.
What frightened Xu Huang even more was that after the torches were lit, the gate of Sizhong Tuen opened wide, and groups of infantry who had been waiting for them ran out from it.
I saw them forming a neat military formation under the command of the general behind them, holding sharp spears and stepping out of the camp gate. Then after they arrived not far from the camp gate,
They all knocked their shields on the ground and shouted in unison,
"Tiger! Tiger! Tiger!"
The sound of thousands of shields hitting the ground, coupled with the roar of tens of thousands of elite soldiers,
These two voices are intertwined,
shattered the dark clouds in the sky,
It also resounded throughout the sky!
These tens of thousands of soldiers are the most elite troops under Guan Yu.
In the past few months, Guan Yu relied on them to defeat Cao Ren, Lu Chang, Yu Jin, Pang De and other famous Cao Wei generals.
It was with them that Guan Yu was able to continuously eliminate nearly 100,000 Cao Wei's field troops in half a year!
Now is the peak moment for these more than 10,000 Jingzhou soldiers.
These tens of thousands of Jingzhou soldiers are standing still, waiting for the enemies ahead to come.
The unparalleled momentum of the cavalry roaring like tigers frightened the Jiangdong infantry, but it did not frighten them commanded by Guan Yu.
It's not like they have never done it before, they have done it frequently in the past six months.
When these elite soldiers who had experienced hundreds of battles and were full of morale were in formation, waiting for Xu Huang's army to crash into them, the soldiers behind Xu Huang ordered them to hurriedly stop the attacking formation.
Under Xu Huang's desperation, although these more than ten thousand cavalry stopped advancing,
However, due to inertia, the formation of more than 10,000 cavalry became chaotic.
Many cavalrymen even fell off their horses.
The reason why Xu Huang suddenly ordered the army behind him to stop was because the scene in front of him made him realize,
Guan Yu didn't fall into the trap!
Guan Yu may even be at the camp gate in front of him.
Among the famous generals under Liu Bei's command, Zhang Fei was good at riding, Guan Yu was good at walking, and
Only Guan Yu dared to order his soldiers to come out of the camp and take the initiative to form a formation to greet the cavalry.
After Xu Huang's army stopped charging, more than 10,000 Han troops in front of the camp gate automatically separated into a passage.
Covered in gold armor and wearing a soaring battle crown on his head, a horseman as heroic as a god slowly appeared in front of Xu Huang from the passage.
If this person is not Guan Yu, who else could he be?
Guan Yu drove a red war horse with a tall head to the front of the two armies.
The tip of the long knife in his hand even touched the ground. As Guan Yu advanced, the tip of the big knife made an unfathomable crack on the ground.
At this moment, Guan Yu's huge aura was fully activated,
When he came ten steps away from Xu Huang's army, Guan Yu took the initiative to stop his horse's hooves.
As Guan Yu stood firm, many people in the army behind Xu Huang also recognized this famous general.
Under the influence of Guan Yu's momentum that one man can defeat Guan and ten thousand others,
With everyone's fear of Guan Yu,
The horses under the tens of thousands of cavalrymen were obviously restless.
They kept slapping their noses, their horses' hooves kept scratching on the ground, and they retreated step by step.
Not only the war horses of the tens of thousands of troops behind Xu Huang were like this, but also the horses under Xu Huang's crotch.
No matter how Xu Huang and the cavalry behind him tried to calm the horses, it was all in vain.
Animals are sometimes more psychic than humans.
One man, one horse, one sword, standing upright just a stone's throw away from Xu Huang's army.
But it seemed that it was not Guan Yu who was afraid, but the more than 10,000 cavalrymen behind Xu Huang.
"Gong Ming, if you attack the enemy, you must save it, and wait for work at ease. What a good strategy you have."
"In this way, you can be my friend Guan Yunchang."
Guan Yu, who feared tens of thousands of cavalrymen, took the initiative to greet his childhood friend before and after he came to the formation of the two armies.
After Xu Huang heard Guan Yu's words, he couldn't help laughing at himself.
"Even though I made all kinds of plans, I didn't expect that it would all come to nothing in the end."
"After all, Yun Chang, you are the better one."
Facing Xu Huang's self-deprecation, Guan Yu said calmly,
"Otherwise, if my master hadn't been clever, I would have fallen into your trap."
Hearing Guan Yu say that it was his chief clerk who really saw through his scheme, Xu Huang couldn't help but wonder,
"Who is the chief registrant of Yunchang?"
Guan Yu thought of the young man who had saved him from danger many times, and a longing smile appeared on his face.
"My son and nephew, Mi Yang."
Xu Huang secretly wrote down this person's name, then he looked at Guan Yu and said,
"Yun Chang, since you have seen through my plan, let's fight openly and honestly."
Faced with Xu Huang's request to fight, Guan Yu advised,
"Gongming, surrender, let's fight head-on.
You are no match for me."
There was no hint of pride in Guan Yu's words, but a frank tone.
Because in his own opinion, what he said is true.
But Xu Huang was also a famous general. Even if he knew what Guan Yu said was true, how could he accept the shame of surrendering without a fight?
Moreover, in his opinion, he has no chance of winning when riding against foot.
Xu Huang did not answer, but immediately ordered the soldiers behind him to attack.
Just now, Xu Huang was still chatting with Guan Yu. Now, without waiting for Guan Yu to return to the formation, he immediately ordered the cavalry behind him to attack.
In the eyes of outsiders, this is really an act without martial virtue, but soldiers never tire of deceit, and this has been true since ancient times.
Xu Huang gave the order, and the cavalry behind him immediately drove their horses forward and killed Guan Yu and the infantry behind him.
There were also some cavalry who dispersed their formation, wandered around and fired arrows to disrupt the formation of Guan Yu's infantry.
Facing the incoming arrows, Liao Hua behind Guan Yu shouted loudly for Guan Yu to rush into the battle, but unexpectedly Guan Yu burst out laughing after hearing this.
"Compared with the arrows of the white horse back then, today's arrows are much rarer."
"Even if thousands of arrows are fired, how can Guan retreat?"
After finishing speaking, Guan Yu drove the war horse under his crotch, not retreating but advancing, so as not to raise his whip.
He waved a broadsword and jumped on his horse to kill the charging enemy.
When Guan Yu first entered the enemy formation, a dozen cavalrymen came with guns.
But Guan Yu was not afraid at all. He raised his sword and swept towards the dozens of enemy troops who were attacking with great force.
Before these dozens of enemy soldiers could react, they were all knocked off their horses by Guan Yu, and fell to the ground not knowing whether they were alive or dead.
After killing these dozens of enemy soldiers, Guan Yu moved toward an enemy general to kill him.
Guan Yu drove his horse very fast, but after a while, the enemy general was killed by Guan Yu's sword.
Then Guan Yu drove his horse to attack left and right in the enemy formation. Wherever he went, people would be turned upside down.
Whenever the enemy was about to encircle him, Guan Yu would promptly jump out of the enemy's formation on his steed, and then drive his horse into the formation again.
Guan Yu entered the enemy's formation three times, and each time he entered, he would kill several enemy generals.
What does it mean to have ten thousand enemies? Guan Yunchang also means.
Guan Yunchang is not only an enemy of thousands of people, he also has extraordinary handsomeness.
He knew that infantry was inherently weak against cavalry, and Xu Huang used cavalry tactics to run around and shoot arrows to disrupt the formation of the infantry behind him.
The purpose is to lower their morale.
Therefore, if he wanted to defeat the enemy, the first thing Guan Yu had to do was to improve his own morale.
That's why he took the initiative to rush into battle,
Of course, this also involves the fact that he is extremely confident in himself.
Sure enough, under Guan Yu's unstoppable charge into the formation, the enemy's morale was almost visibly declining.
When our own infantry saw the god-like fighting posture of their commander Guan Yu, they
Morale has simply skyrocketed.
"Long live! Long live!"
More than 10,000 soldiers on Guan Yu's side shouted "long live" in unison, and the more than 10,000 shouts were like the drums of heavenly soldiers and generals.
The gap in morale between the enemy and ourselves is constantly widening.
Seeing that the time was right, Guan Yu jumped out of the enemy's formation in time and
He has extraordinary battlefield command skills and knows that now is the time for his side to attack.
Guan Yu jumped out of the enemy's formation, raised his sword high, and then swung it towards the enemy.
Behind him, more than ten thousand elite soldiers, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, immediately started to move forward.
Before that, Guan Yu ordered his soldiers to cut down trees and make simple antlers.
At this time, under the command of Guan Yu, these more than 10,000 elite soldiers each held a deer antler and formed an antler formation.
After the antlers were arrayed, the formation of Guan Yu's soldiers, protected by shields and antlers, seemed to have turned into a mobile camp.
They moved forward slowly, facing the enemy in front,
Killing step by step, slowly, but unswervingly.
A strong general has no weak soldiers!
This is the deer antler formation specially developed by Guan Yu to restrain the northern cavalry.
The cavalry under Xu Huang's command saw Guan Yu's soldiers forming a large formation like a turtle shell and taking the initiative to move towards them.
They were afraid that the war horses under their crotches would be injured by the antlers and spears in the antlers formation.
Therefore, they could only ride their horses around the antlers and pass by,
And this scene played right into Guan Yu's heart.
As the cavalry under Xu Huang rode around the stronghold, thousands of arrows suddenly shot out from the antlers formation, and the loss was enough to cover the moon!
Then the arrow disappeared and quickly headed towards the cavalry under Xu Huang's command.
In an instant, Xu Huang was caught off guard and more than 10,000 cavalry troops were killed and injured.
Fallen corpses almost blocked the road.
Seeing this scene, Xu Huang's teeth were about to burst.
And just when Xu Huang was ready to retreat, Xu Shang beside him suddenly exclaimed to him,
"General! General!"
"The camp beacon is lit!"
Hearing the news, Xu Huang almost fell off his horse.
Looking at the comments recently, some readers commented that in fact, for the new book issue, it is best to update 4,000 words and 2 chapters every day, otherwise it will greatly affect subsequent recommendations.
I'm used to writing big chapters, but for subsequent recommendations, I sometimes have to split what was originally a big chapter into several small chapters.
This will result in the number of chapters appearing to be too high and somewhat watery.
But many times, I update at least 5,000 or more every day.
Just like today, I wrote more than 6,000.
Just wait until it is released, then I can let myself go and update the chapter as much as I want.
I hope everyone will like what I wrote about Guan Yu today.
Please support me a lot and chase my teeth!
If you want to join the group, there is a group number in the profile.
