Unlike Li Feng who stood behind the military formation, Zhang Fei stood in front of the military formation, raised his snake spear eight feet long, and shouted: "Follow me and kill!"
He was the first to mount his horse and rush forward, followed by the soldiers.
These soldiers led by Li Feng were all soldiers and horses who had guarded Huailing with him before. They had never fought against Liu Bei's soldiers, and they had never seen the opponent's bravery with their own eyes.
I have heard a lot, but what I hear is false and what I see is true.
They feel that the other party's soldiers are just mortals like themselves and cannot be much braver than themselves.
It's just that they don't understand the principle of "the soldiers follow the generals bravely".
One soldier is raging, and the general is raging in a nest.
Although Li Feng had some courage, he was still a little afraid of Zhang Fei, so he hid behind the military formation instead of rushing in front like Zhang Fei.
The positions of the generals on both sides already show who is brave and who is timid.
Zhang Fei jumped on his horse and ran straight away, keeping a distance of forty or fifty steps from his own soldiers, and quickly rushed to the front of the enemy's formation.
This made Li Feng secretly happy. He thought that Zhang Fei was too reckless and dared to charge alone. It seemed that he was going to make a great contribution today.
He proudly looked back at Liang Gang on the city, but he saw fear in Liang Gang's eyes.
When he turned back, he saw Zhang Fei waving his spear, grinning, glaring with anger, roaring repeatedly, stabbing left and right, and quickly killed more than a dozen people.
Although his own soldiers had surrounded him, he was not afraid at all and seemed to be fighting with great vigor.
As the opponent's soldiers and horses rushed in, soldiers from both sides fought in a melee. Only now did Li Feng realize that he had been reckless.
I saw that although my own soldiers were more numerous than the opponent's, they were being killed and retreating step by step.
Li Feng gritted his teeth and made up his mind. Since he dared to lead troops into battle, he must dare to fight against the enemy generals.
He yelled: "Anyone who retreats will die, come to me."
He stabbed several retreating soldiers to death, and then pushed the soldiers back.
Li Feng clapped his horse and rushed forward, broke into the enemy soldiers, stabbed several enemy soldiers in succession, and shouted: "Today is the day for meritorious service, kill!"
He became ruthless, and the morale of his soldiers also soared. They were inextricably linked to Zhang Fei's soldiers and became a stalemate.
Zhang Fei couldn't remember how many enemy soldiers he had killed, but it was boring to just kill enemy soldiers. He looked at the enemy general Li Feng, patted his horse and charged towards him.
Li Feng had already seen Zhang Fei's bravery and deliberately avoided him, staying twenty or thirty steps away.
Now seeing Zhang Fei coming towards him, he couldn't help but feel a little scared in his heart.
But his troops are fighting bravely now, and he cannot lose morale because of himself.
Li Feng was worried again, feeling that he was not weak, and how could a general be afraid of death?
So he waved his spear and clapped his horse to meet Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei was overjoyed when he saw this, and after stabbing several enemy soldiers, he came to Li Feng.
Li Feng thrust his spear at Zhang Fei and shouted: "Zhang Fei, I will take your life today."
Zhang Fei raised his spear to block it and laughed, "Hey, my life is not easy to take."
Liang Gang was watching the battle on the city. He originally saw Li Feng charging forward. His troops and horses had already withstood the enemy's offensive. With his numerical advantage, he was likely to win if he continued to fight.
But now I saw Li Feng and Zhang Fei fighting together, and I knew something was wrong.
Sure enough, Li Feng and Zhang Fei had only fought for five rounds when Liang Gang saw Zhang Fei pierce Li Feng's chest with a spear.
Liang Gang exclaimed, turned around quickly and ordered: "Hurry, retreat quickly."
Li Feng died in battle, not to mention the soldiers outside the city. The general was dead, and they were bound to be defeated.
If we don't leave now, it will be too late when Zhang Fei attacks the city.
Liang Gang got off the city wall, led the remaining one thousand soldiers, left the city from the west of Yinling, and retreated to Xiquyang.
Li Feng was stabbed to death. Zhang Fei's soldiers killed more fiercely at this time, but Li Feng's soldiers seemed to have lost their souls and began to flee in all directions. They were chased by Zhang Fei's soldiers. Many of them dropped their weapons and knelt down.
The earth seeks surrender.
Zhang Fei led his troops into the city, only to find that there were no enemy soldiers in the city and they had all escaped.
After clearing the battlefield, Zhang Fei's soldiers killed more than 500 people, killed more than 1,300 enemies, and captured more than 1,700 people.
Zhang Fei rested in the army city, gathered more than a thousand captive soldiers, and sent people to report to Liu Bei.
"Hahaha... Mr. Wen An once said that both Yun Chang and Yide have the courage to defeat ten thousand enemies. This statement is absolutely true!"
Liu Bei looked very happy.
"Lord, General Yide's bravery has made the enemy soldiers famous and frightened. He attacked two cities in a row and was overwhelming. However, after Yinling is Xiquyang, and after Xiquyang is Shouchun, which is Yuan Shu's last line of defense. Yuan Shu may
There will be heavy troops garrisoned, or reinforcements will come to rescue the troops when they approach the city. If General Yide only has three thousand soldiers and horses, it may be difficult to defeat him."
Zhuge Liang is now an official in Liu Bei's account, because his brother Zhuge Jin is in charge of the administration, and he is highly respected by Zhou Ping, and is also more valued by Liu Bei.
Now Liu Bei's lieutenants and generals call him their lord.
After listening to Zhuge Liang's words, Liu Bei nodded and said: "It's what Kong Ming said. Although Yi De is brave, he is just not good at using strategy. Moreover, there may be heavy troops stationed in Xiquyang. If he is ordered to go there again with only three thousand soldiers, with Yide's character
, I’m afraid it’s inappropriate to have to fight forcefully again. Kong Ming, what do you think we should do?”
Zhuge Liang replied: "General Yide is very brave, and Li Gongliang is good at strategy. It is better to have Li Gongliang lead 3,000 troops to go with General Yide. This can increase his troops and benefit his strategy. Even if he reaches the gate of Xiquyang City,
There’s nothing to worry about.”
Li Gongliang is Li Jia.
Zhuge Liang had heard about Li Jia's strategy of empty city and suspicious soldiers in Huailing, and admired him very much.
Guan Yu stroked his beard and said: "Brother, what Kong Ming said is absolutely true. If Yide and Gongliang can lead the army together, and the two complement each other, they will definitely be able to defeat the city when their troops arrive."
"Okay, then let Yide wait for us at Yinling. When we arrive at Yinling, Li Gongliang will lead three thousand soldiers and follow Yide."
"promise."
Li Jia stepped out of the queue and answered with his hands raised.
Two days later, Liu Bei led his troops into Yinling City.
As soon as he entered the city, a detective came to report that an envoy from the imperial court was chasing him.
"Envoy from the imperial court?!" Liu Bei was suddenly filled with doubts.
I didn’t send anyone to contact the imperial court, so why did the imperial court suddenly send an envoy?
What is the purpose of the imperial court sending envoys to look for him?
Is it because I secretly accepted Xuzhou Mu? Or is it because I secretly accepted the post of General Anton?
Liu Bei couldn't understand it, but no matter how hard he understood it, the imperial envoys had to be welcomed.
He asked Zhang Fei and Li Jia to postpone sending troops, and personally led the generals out of the city to meet him.
It turned out that after Liu Xie sent an envoy, because the road was difficult, the envoy traveled for more than a month before arriving in Xuzhou. When they arrived in Xuzhou, they found out that Liu Bei was leading an army to conquer Jiujiang, so they pursued him to Jiujiang and wanted to pay homage to Liu Bei in person.
