Fang Tian's painted halberd seemed to be endowed with spirituality in Lu Bu's hands, and he was fighting from left to right. Yan Liang, who had been guarding tightly under Ma Chao just now, suddenly became overwhelmed and was almost knocked off his horse by Lu Bu several times.
Yuan Shao was shocked when he saw this and hurriedly said: "General Wen, come forward quickly and rescue General Yan." He knew Lu Bu's reputation and did not want his general to die on the battlefield like this.
Wen Chou did not dare to neglect, and rushed out with his sword, directly attacking Lu Bu in the formation. Two generals of the Jizhou army fought against Lu Bu. The soldiers on both sides held their breath and concentrated. This kind of battle situation is rarely seen. Some generals were invisible when watching this kind of battle.
It can improve the adaptability of the battlefield.
Seeing this, the generals of the Xiliang Army did not make any move, but their gazes on the battlefield became more and more focused. Lu Bu's superb martial arts skills were admired by many generals, and watching Lu Bu fight could make up for the shortcomings in their moves, which was considered a good thing.
It’s a way to increase battlefield experience that you shouldn’t miss.
Fang Tian drew his halberd and fought with two swords, and he did not lose at all. He chopped and stabbed, but Yan Liang and Wen Chou were killed and retreated steadily. If the two of them had not cooperated well, they would have been stabbed by Lu Bu's halberd.
Yuan Shao was shocked. He had always heard that Lu Bu was a fierce general of the Xiliang Army. He did not expect that his martial arts skills were so strong. He could fight two generals of the Jizhou Army alone without falling behind. Looking at the situation on the field, Yan Liang, Wen Chou and Yan Liang were still a bit inferior. Thinking of that,
When he boasted in front of the princes, "If Yan Liang and Wen Chou were here, the Xiliang army would not be afraid," his face turned slightly red.
In the end, Yan Liangwen Chou was exhausted and retreated. Lu Bu stood proudly in front of the two armies and shouted loudly: "How dare anyone from the Jizhou army fight!"
After the battle just now, the war spirit of the Jizhou Army generals has been well concealed. Facing such a murderous figure, no one will make fun of their own lives. What is Wu Wu Er? This time,
They are willing to compete for second place, but they are not willing to compete for first place in Lu Bu's hands.
Yuan Shao looked embarrassed, his generals had no fighting spirit, but looking at the Xiliang army, he couldn't help but feel worried.
Xu You took the opportunity and said: "My lord, no matter how strong Lu Bu is, he is just a man. He can be captured in one battle. There are many generals in the Xiliang army, so there is nothing to worry about. Our army has 100,000 elites, so why fear a mere 10,000?"
Xiliang army also."
Yuan Shao thought about his own troops and felt a little more at ease. Yes, he has one hundred thousand troops. There are even more one hundred thousand troops in Jizhou. Looking at the whole world, how many people can have two hundred thousand troops?
He was confident enough to repel the 10,000 Xiliang army.
After the duel, both sides selected men and horses to fight for a while. After each other suffered casualties, they returned to the camp.
In the large tent of the Chinese army, Tian Feng advised: "My lord, in the past, more than 300,000 Allied troops came to Hangu Pass and could not advance even an inch. Now Jia Rong leads the troops to go out and occupy Bingzhou in three months. After reorganization, he will send troops to You.
The state is at its peak, so we should not fight with it or avoid it. Our army had formed an alliance with the Xiliang army at the beginning, so why not use this to persuade the Xiliang army to retreat? Besides, Daijun has more than 10,000 Weilan soldiers and horses.
"
Yuan Shao frowned. Although what Tian Feng said was unpleasant, it was true. At first, more than 300,000 people could not compete with the Xiliang army. Now, with 100,000 people, how can they win? Thinking of some of the methods of the Xiliang army, Yuan Shao
Somewhat timid, he nodded slightly and said: "Yuan Hao's words are not unreasonable, but now the two sides have fought."
"No, Jia Rong is a general, and the lord is a Jizhou shepherd. The soldiers of both sides compete with each other. Jia Rong will not care about it, otherwise he will be a traitor. Moreover, after repeated battles, the soldiers are exhausted. It is expected that Jia Rong has no enterprising spirit, but
He wants to regain the former territory of Daijun, and if Jia Rong does this, the lord can reap the benefits. Daijun is under the rule of Yan Rou, and if Jia Rong gets it, how can he not complain in his heart, and Weilan will not be willing to take Daijun.
If you give up, there will be a big battle between the two sides, and Jizhou will benefit." Tian Feng said.
The counselors in the big tent all nodded in agreement, but Xu You looked at Tian Feng with a somewhat unkind look. When Tian Feng advised Yuan Shao to kill Yan Liang, he had offended Yan Liang. Without the support of military commanders behind him, his image in Yuan Shao's mind
It wasn’t too good either. Xu You asked himself that what Yuan Shao valued most was himself.
"I wonder if Yuan Hao has a plan?" Yuan Shao was surprised and asked hurriedly.
"Sir Ju can be sent as an envoy to the Xiliang army. Let's talk about the pros and cons." Tian Feng said slowly.
"Well, without further delay, we immediately order Guangping to go to the Xiliang army to see Jia Rong." Yuan Shao said.
When Jushou came to the Xiliang Army, he did not receive the courtesy he deserved. Instead, he was arbitrarily taken to an uninhabited camp by the soldiers. Tea and food were provided every day. Jia Rong did not show up for a long time, so Jushou could calm down.
Sitting in the tent, drinking tea and reading books from sages, I felt as steady as Mount Tai.
The two sides have been fighting for more than ten days. The Xiliang Army's cavalry has begun to dispatch and spread all over the battlefield. If the Jizhou Army has any slight disturbance, it cannot be hidden from Jia Rong's eyes. At the same time, it is also the task of the cavalry to cut off the Jizhou Army's food and grass. There are tens of thousands of Jizhou Army.
, countless amounts of grain and grass are consumed every day, and there must be an endless stream of grain transport trucks. Unprepared, the grain and grass from Jizhou must be in disaster.
Yuan Shao was not sure of defeating the Xiliang army's cavalry, so he could only tighten his camp, and few scouts were sent out from the army. At this time, Yuan Shao was just a blind man and a deaf man in Jia Rong's eyes. However, these cavalry repeatedly invaded the grain and grass route, which made Yuan Shao
They had to send heavy troops to transport food and grass. At the same time, under the advice of their advisers, the Jizhou cavalry also began to march towards the battlefield. Unlike the Xiliang army's indomitable attitude, whenever they encountered the Xiliang army's cavalry, the Jizhou cavalry would definitely fight for a while.
Retreat immediately.
The princes of the Central Plains lacked cavalry. Although Jia Rong occupied the vast grassland and owned a large number of war horses, which he sold to the Central Plains, war horses were expensive and not easy to raise. The number of cavalry of the princes was generally not too large.
When Tian Feng saw the current situation of the Jizhou army, a dark look flashed in his eyes, and he walked towards the central army where Yuan Shao was. He wanted to persuade Yuan Shao to retreat. The current Daijun was useless, and it would be a pity to abandon it without meaning.
Jizhou will have to pay a heavy price to capture Daijun, and after abandoning it, Jia Rong will be advantaged. With Yuan Shao's indecisive character, it is difficult to make a decision.
"My lord, the cavalry of the Xiliang army are all over the battlefield. It will be difficult for our army to reach the food and grass. How about we take this opportunity to withdraw our troops back to Guangyang County, relying on the strong city, compete with the Xiliang army, and fly to where our army is.
Sir, although the Xiliang army is small in number, they are all elite."
When Yuan Shao heard these words, he was a little moved.
"What does Mr. Tian mean by this? Is our Jizhou Army inferior to the Xiliang Army? We are still scared by their cavalry. Don't forget that on the Youzhou battlefield, the white horse can compete with the elite cavalry of the Xiliang Army."
If Yi Cong is defeated by our army, and our army has Shanggu County Guangyang County as its support, even if the Xiliang army has 100,000 people, it will be difficult to capture it, but it will lose the army and generals." Xu You said, he could not see Tian Feng.
With his status in front of Yuan Shao so high, he must not be merciful as long as he threatens his own counselors. He has always called himself the number one counselor of the Jizhou Army. What's more, the Jizhou Army is now in a good situation and can stabilize the Xiliang Army.
"What do Yuan Hao's words mean?"
"My lord, Mr. Tian had advised your lord in the camp a few days ago to let Mr. Ju go on an envoy to the Xiliang army, but he has not returned yet. Tian Feng's heart is unpredictable." Xu You said in a gloomy tone.
Tian Feng was furious, pointed at Xu You's nose and cursed: "You, a villain who only knows how to stir up trouble, can you really bear to see tens of thousands of Jizhou troops defeated?"
Originally, Yuan Shao was still interested in Tian Feng. After hearing these words, his expression immediately dropped. What does it mean that tens of thousands of Jizhou troops were defeated? What he couldn't hear the most was that the Jizhou army was inferior to someone else.
"Well, Tian Feng, what do you mean?" Yuan Shao sounded a little angry. He did not address Tian Feng by name, but called him by his first name.
Seeing Yuan Shao's expression change slightly and his tone of anger, Xu You felt happy and followed Tian Feng's words and said: "Master Tian, I don't mean this. Although the Xiliang army is strong, our army is not weak either. Why should we be afraid?"
If all of them were like adults, fearful in the face of battle, there would be no need to fight this battle and they could just surrender."
Yuan Shao said angrily: "Stop arguing, I will invite the Xiliang army to fight in the future and let him see my sons in Jizhou!"
Seeing Yuan Shao's decisive words, Tian Feng handed over and left. Xu You looked happy and pushed Tian Feng down in front of Yuan Shao, making him feel extremely comfortable.
Jushu sent an envoy to the Xiliang Army. In hindsight, Tian Feng was indeed defeated by one move. Jia Rong's reputation in front of the world was not very good, and he did not care about recruiting more talents. Thinking of Jushu's talent, he was the only one in the Jizhou army.
Being able to be used as an envoy, Tian Feng secretly sighed in his heart: "Perhaps it would be better in the Xiliang army." Tian Feng and Jushu were men of great talent, and when they first joined Yuan Shao, they saw the family background of his fourth generation and three nobles.
Coupled with Yuan Shao's politeness towards others, such a person is worthy of seeking refuge. Unexpectedly, it has become the current situation.
Yuan Shao invited a battle, and Jia Rong naturally wanted it. He had the likes of Lu Bu, Zhao Yun, and Huang Zhong on his side, and the Jizhou army was no match for the fighting soldiers, whether they were infantry or cavalry. Although the opponent had tens of thousands, the Xiliang army only had 10,000.
But he didn't care at all. The battle was not only about the number of people, but also about the eliteness and morale of the soldiers.
Yuan Shao did not determine the types of troops, but only the number of troops. The Jizhou army sent out 5,000 men. In order to show the strength of the Xiliang army, Jia Rong only sent out 4,000 men. The commander was Gao Shun.
Commanding an army of four thousand men at once was a challenge for Gao Shun. Since he released the Han Emperor at Hangu Pass that day, Gao Shun was gradually buried in the army and could not be reused. It was not until Lu Bu became the vanguard that he
Appearing in front of Jia Rong again, this time Gao Shun was sent to fight in the duel between the two armies, which was beyond the expectations of all the soldiers.
The 800 infantrymen commanded by Gao Shun were not inferior to those trapped in the camp. When Gao Shun and Li Shun were guarding Hangu Pass, Li Shun admired Gao Shun very much. Soldiers from both sides competed with each other, but Gao Shun never fell behind during the march.
Soldiers are trained in a certain way for fighting.
