(Today is Valentine's Day, I wish all the lovers in the world will finally get married!) The ground roared and the shouts shook the sky. In the land of ten miles with Nanluan County as the center, the officers and soldiers of the Yan Army who were ambushing were all attacked at almost the same time.
When Zhao Jun attacked, except for Chu Yan who first discovered the trick and left early, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Xu Huang, Pang De, Liao Hua, Lu Heng, and Gao Lin all suffered injuries, among which Lu Heng's troops were all injured.
The greatest casualties.
Yan Liang, Wen Chou and other generals of the Zhao army defeated the outnumbered and used their superiority in strength to drive Gao Fei's ambush troops deployed in eight different directions to the vicinity of Nanluan County.
Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Xu Huang, Pang De, Liao Hua, Lu Heng, Gao Lin, and Chu Yan rushed towards Nanluan County together and moved closer to Gao Fei. When they were approaching the city, everyone saw Han Meng.
High visibility
The infantry phalanx led by Gao Fei surrounded the city. The eight people wanted to break out. Unexpectedly, Han Meng and Gao Lan took the initiative to withdraw from the siege, opening a wide opening in each direction.
Fight with these eight generals.
Zhao Yun and others all galloped to the gate of Nanluan County. Everyone gathered together. Chen Dao, Wenpin, Zhou Cang and others who were guarding the city gate immediately opened the city gate and let Zhao Yun and others into the city. Xiao Xiao
Nanluan County suddenly became overcrowded.
Haidongqing was still hovering over Nanluan County, overlooking the earth with its sharp eagle eyes, and suddenly found countless troops coming from all directions. Haidongqing screamed twice in surprise and slapped twice.
The wings slowly flew down to low altitude, and finally landed on Li Yulin's shoulders, making a series of chirping sounds.
After Li Yulin heard this, he said to Gao Fei: "My lord, Yuan Shao's Zhao army has all been dispatched. Hai Dongqing said that he saw a sea of people all around and they were gathering here."
While Gao Fei was waiting, he kept his eyes closed and rested. After hearing Li Yulin's words, he opened his eyes and looked outside the city. He saw the heads of people on the plain outside the city, and the horse and infantry troops surrounded Nanluan County.
, wherever they passed, the fields on the plains were trampled into shape.
Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Xu Huang, Pang De, Chu Yan, Gao Lin, Liao Hua, and Lu Heng boarded the tower together. When they saw Gao Fei, they all worshiped in unison: "See you, my lord!"
Gao Fei said: "It's good that you are back. I was negligent this time. For the sake of Jushu, my army was surrounded here. I really regret it. Jushu's strategy was probably to besiege us here and not be surrounded."
Attack, slowly wear down our morale, and wait until we run out of food before attacking again. This is really a clever plan to kill people invisible."
"That's what happened. Our army didn't bring any food, grass or baggage here. We just carried a day's worth of dry food and water with us. My lord, I am willing to be the vanguard and lead the crowd to break through and escort my lord safely away from here." Taishi Ci.
shouted immediately.
Gao Fei looked at the Zhao army in front of him. A long wall of people blocked the first line of defense, while the people who emerged from behind formed the second line of defense. There was also a third line of defense consisting of infantry and cavalry.
Yes, the soldiers gathered behind seemed to be forming the fourth and fifth lines of defense. They were surrounded very tightly and could be said to be airtight.
"Break through, we must break through. If we don't break out, we can only sit here and wait for death. My lord, before the Zhao army has assembled, our army should quickly launch a breakout. Otherwise, we will wait until Zhao's army has assembled. We will try to break out again."
It will become difficult." Gao Lin said with a cup of his hands.
Gao Fei nodded and ordered: "How did the eight of you come here just now? How can you go back? Launch a breakout in different directions and focus on attacking the enemy. After breaking out, come back and fight with the enemy on the outside.
The army fights guerrillas. Zhao's cavalry mostly uses long spears, while our army's cavalry mostly uses bows and arrows and steel knives. We must make good use of bows and arrows to fight with Zhao's army and follow guerrilla tactics so that the enemy cannot figure out what our army's intentions are.
!”
"Lord, why don't we break out?" Gao Lin asked.
Gao Fei said: "Break through, break out the way you came from, but leave this matter to the soldiers guarding the city. You just need to disrupt Zhao Jun's arrangement for me, don't let them form an encirclement, and be careful not to rush."
It’s too fierce.”
The generals said: "No!"
After finishing the instructions, Gao Fei called Chen Dao, Wenpin, Zhou Cang, Hu Yu, Xian Yufu, Tian Chou, Wang Wenjun, Shi Jie and others, asking Zhou Cang to replace Liao Hua, Chen Dao to replace Lu Heng, and Wenpin to replace Liao Hua.
Gao Lin was replaced, and the 36,000 cavalry they brought back were divided into nine teams, with each team having 4,000 men. Taishi Ci and Lu
Heng, Gao Lin, and Liao Hua jointly led a team and assembled at the north gate. He also asked Hu Yu to lead Xian Yufu, Tian Chou, Wang Wenjun, and Tadun to assemble the five thousand cavalry in the city, and they all gathered at the north gate to prepare for the implementation.
He planned a breakout, and he personally led 20,000 infantrymen and Bai Yu, Shi Jie, and Li Yulin to defend the city.
…
The afternoon sun gradually dimmed, and the scorching sun was blocked by thick clouds. The thick ink-like clouds were getting lower and lower. It seemed that as long as you stood there and stretched out your hands and jumped lightly, you could touch the clouds.
generally.
Among the clouds, lightning flashed through the clouds like silver snakes, and then thunder sounded like a sigh.
In the wilderness, Yuan Shao, surrounded by ten knights in fine armor, came at a high speed. There was a dirt slope about two or three meters high beside the road. Yuan Shao suddenly whipped his horse and galloped up the dirt slope.
, just toward
Looking from a distance, Gao Fei looked very excited when he saw the strong soldiers in front surrounding Nanluan County. He raised his whip and pointed at Nanluan County and said, "I'll see how you escape this time."
go out."
Behind Yuan Shao, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other ten generals lined up in a row. Seeing that layers of interceptions had been set up in front of them, everyone was impressed by the strength of the army.
Zhang Fei frowned and looked at Gao Fei in the distance who had let him go once. He had an indescribable feeling. He didn't know whether he should be happy or worried if Gao Fei was really killed.
Suddenly, the gate of Nanluan County opened. Xu Huang led four thousand cavalry out of the city gate first, and led the army to charge forward. The shouts shook the earth. Four thousand knights in steel armor rushed out of the city gate, and then
Like many beans rolling out of a bag, flying in the rain of Zhao Jun's screaming arrows.
Immediately afterwards, Wenpin also rushed out of the city gate with 4,000 armored cavalry, and Xu Huang rushed to the left and right in different directions.
Wenpin's breastplate reflected the cold light of lightning, like a stream of light flying past. The archery team guarding the first line of defense had just fired two batches of arrows, and Wenpin had already rushed to the front of the formation. The white horse was as wide-eyed as him.
With white air puffing out of his eyes and nose, he just charged with all his strength, and his ponytail almost became a horizontal line.
Wenpin grasped the spear tightly and leaped forward. Wherever the spear went, it was like a no-man's land. Anyone who came to stop him would leave several holes in his body. The first line of tight defense was thus destroyed.
Wenpin broke through vulnerablely, his horse hooves trampling the giant shield, his spear stabbing the crowd, leaving behind him
There was a blood-stained passage, and every few feet there were one or two soldiers lying down, holding their chests or lower abdomen, wailing loudly, rolling on the ground and panting, and were immediately trampled by the cavalry who followed, with their heads cracked.
The white brain mixed with blood seeped into the soil and immediately turned into patches of dirty mud.
The Zhao army's formation quickly became chaotic, and the soldiers retreated in front of the heroic Yan army cavalry.
On the other side, Xu Huang had a gloomy face, waving the gilded ax in his hand and shouting constantly, making the general with a birthmark on his face look like a ghost. Zhao Jun's soldiers heard his thunderous shouts
Everyone was frightened by the loud roar. Xu Huang also stabbed directly like a sharp sword.
After entering the bone marrow of Zhao Jun, coupled with the sound of the big ax swinging, the soldiers began to dodge dozens of feet away. Even so, dozens of slow-running soldiers still died under his big ax and horse hooves.
. Later, Xu Huang only relied on this roar to clear a path through Zhao Jun's army.
"Who are these two people?" Wenpin asked as Yuan Shao, who was standing on the slope, raised his whip and pointed at Xu Huang when he saw this scene.
"My lord, these two people are Xu Huang and Wenpin, one of the eighteen hussars under Gao Fei's tent!" Wen Chou said with great appreciation after seeing them.
Yuan Shao said: "Who dares to stop them?"
"I will go there eventually!" Yan Liang replied immediately.
"You can't kill a chicken with a bull's knife. You are a general in our army, how can you go into battle at will? Guan Yunchang, I heard that you are brave enough to be worthy of ten thousand men. How about you go and take Xu Huang's head?"
Guan Yu couldn't refuse, so he agreed and went down the slope with the Qinglong Yanyue Sword.
Although the Zhao army has many defense lines, the first line is always the infantry. These infantry were basically recruited last year. In terms of combat capabilities, they are definitely not as good as the Yan army's battle-hardened elite soldiers, not to mention the Yan army's cavalry.
The Wuhuan people accounted for the vast majority. The Wuhuan cavalry were already famous all over the world. In addition, they were trained by Gao Fei frequently, and they were like fierce tigers.
Xu Huang broke through the first line of defense and turned around to see that he had torn a V-shaped gap in Zhao Jun's formation. At its tip, the silver light was still rushing forward, leading the cavalry forward.
Rushing, like a steel knife cutting through a piece of meat. In the blink of an eye, the silver light had rushed to Zhao Jun's second line of defense. This time Xu Huang put away the axe, tied it to his horse's neck, took out his bow and arrow,
Together with all his subordinates, he shot at Zhao Jun.
What was different was that Xu Huang's charge turned into a gathering of troops. They quickly assembled into a cavalry formation between the first and second lines of defense, shooting towards both sides. Xu Huang led his men from
They began to run horizontally in the gap between the two lines of defense, using the mobility of the cavalry to run and shoot at the enemies on both sides.
The sharp arrows pierced the clothes and armor of the Zhao soldiers. The Zhao soldiers on both lines of defense were hit one after another, and soon they went from being prepared to panic.
