Cavalry and archery are the strengths of the Wuhuan cavalry. Although their cooperation is not tacit, it cannot be denied that their cavalry and archery skills are no less than those of the Han cavalry, and are even better than them.
This is the natural attribute of the grassland people, and it is also a gift from nature. The land and water support the people.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" As soon as they distanced themselves, the cavalry from both sides began a new round of shooting, but after a few sprints, the two sides finally came together to start a hand-to-hand battle.
The Wuhuan cavalry on the left and right wings dispersed and gathered again. However, Cao Cao clashed back and forth and gradually dispersed the cavalry on the left and right wings.
Lu Bu and Cao Chun led the tiger and leopard cavalry to go around and attack the Wuhuan army from the side. There was no winner in terms of shooting skills between the two sides. But the Wuhuan soldiers wearing leather armor suffered greatly.
Once the distance is shortened, arrows can easily penetrate leather armor, but the protective power of iron fish scale armor is very strong, which can help Yanzhou soldiers avoid fatal blows. This is why the grassland civilization and the Central Plains were only developed in the middle and late Northern and Southern Dynasties. The opportunities and costs for civilizations to compete were because the equipment level of the grassland civilization at that time was basically in sync with the civilization of the Central Plains, and there was no generational difference.
Lu Bu took the lead. If he hadn't attacked with all his strength, Chi Tu would have thrown away the soldiers behind him. even so. The figure of the red horse with painted halberd deeply inspired the Yanzhou cavalry. Various rumors have made this arrogant flying general a symbol. It symbolizes the legend that a single iron cavalry can stop an army of 100,000 people. Therefore, although the Yanzhou Army is at a disadvantage in terms of strength, their morale is already very high.
"Open for me!" Lu Bu split the dozen horses in front of him. He rushed directly to Yuan's army under the banner, intending to take his head.
The Yanzhou army formed an offensive cone formation, and Lu Bu and hundreds of cavalry soldiers were undoubtedly the sharpest spearheads.
The equally brave and powerful Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is the sharpest blade. The two thousand tiger and leopard cavalry were like sharp knives, striking hard into the middle of the Wuhuan cavalry, then stirring and cutting them open!
"Come back quickly, go to the right wing for the first three songs!" Duan Pixi shouted and asked the messenger to wave the flag. He broke out in a cold sweat. On the one hand, the Yanzhou Army's tiger and leopard cavalry were unexpectedly powerful.
On the other hand, he was used to commanding the elite cavalry in Qingzhou, Jizhou. Once he was replaced by the Wuhuan cavalry, which was not very well-organized, he felt that he could not use his strength. After all, he was used to fighting with Yuan Xi in the Central Plains.
One hundred steps, eighty steps, thirty steps, twenty steps, Lu Bu furiously slashed at the Wuhuan cavalry around him, Chitu was galloping, no one could stop him, he was only twenty steps away from the commander's flag, as if the next moment The handsome flag is about to be cut down.
"Woo! Woo! Woo..." The low horn shook the battlefield.
The troops in ambush in Hebei rushed out together at this time! One man and one horse rushed towards him. There were no words, only stern eyes and iron spears carrying strong winds and thunder!
"Cang!" A sound of metal clashing spread, causing the surrounding soldiers to ring in their ears. The iron spear was swung away by Fang Tian's painted halberd, and the sound continued for a long time!
There was a hint of shock in Lu Bu's bloodthirsty eyes, and there was a bit of excitement in the shock. Finally, he had an opponent of comparable strength. If not, this was a great joy for a warrior!
"Who? Zhao Yun? Taishi Ci?" In Lu Bu's mind, only Zhao Yun and Taishi Ci could be so fast and powerful among the Hebei army.
"Chang Shan, Zhao Zilong!"
"Zhao Yun?" Lu Bu was vaguely impressed. "But Zhao Yun from the battle in Luoyang?"
"Exactly!"
"How dare a certain defeated general come back again?!"
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Yun had already stabbed him several times.
The guns are explosive and the moves are fatal! Zhao Yun used the "Dragon Pan Spear" with full power and skill to fight Lu Bu head-on. Then the two horses staggered and turned to face each other.
Zhao Yun's expression paused. He had had several brief battles with Lu Bu in the past few years. He knew the opponent's strength, so his strategy was to defend and counterattack. Lu Bu has become Zhao Yun's inner demon as he advances to the realm of martial arts.
Lu Bu was surprised again. In the last battle, he fought against Zhao Yun. Did he not expect that he would be so improved now?
Zhao Yun's lips seemed to be stuck together and he said nothing. Every time he took a breath, he fired several shots, just wanting to defeat Lu Bu and avenge his previous humiliation! Lu Bu was forced to be caught off guard, which further stimulated his fighting spirit!
Lu Bu's eyes were wild and violent. He was riding on a red tug with a halberd. He was like the reincarnation of the God of Death. He was exuding cold killing intent. He believed in his martial arts, and his creed was to continue attacking.
Not giving the opponent any chance to breathe, like the roaring river.
"Drink!" The two men shouted, and their spears and halberds clashed again.
Lu Bu's halberd chops are mixed with cuts and stabs. Not only is it full of strength, but the moves are also exquisite and tricky. They are always fatal to attack the enemy's vital points. Moreover, the moves are interlocked and connected like clouds and flowing water, smooth and rapid!
The halberd and saber covered Zhao Yun head-on, and the cold sharp edges kept passing by. Even Zhao Yun, who was as steady as a mountain, felt a little awe-inspiring in his heart.
"Dang! Dang! Dang!" Lu Bu's moves were as fast as the other, but Zhao Yun swung the spear and suppressed the halberd with the "Seven Dragons Coiling Snake" move. His left hand controlled the direction of the gun handle, and his right hand secretly moved his strength to prevent it. After one attack, the tip of the spear thrust out diagonally, and a "spear-raising" move rushed out, stabbing Lu Bu's face. ===
Lu Bu was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat, and the strong wind stirred by the spear tip blew against his cheeks. He spread his body sideways, blocked with his halberd, and immediately executed the move, but his cheeks felt slightly cold. Apparently he was cut by the edge of the blade.
Zhao Yun and Lu Bu had fought several times, and their martial arts had reached a higher level, but they lacked an opportunity for breakthrough.
In his life, Lu Bu killed countless generals in fierce battles. There are only a handful of people who can make an impression on him. Today's Zhao Yun can be counted as one of them. Who can understand the loneliness of a master? Today we met our opponent in chess. Marquis Lu Wen cheered up and became more courageous as he fought!
It is said in history that Zhao Yun risked his life to fight against Marquis Wen.
"Haha, okay!" Lu Bu shouted, such an opponent is interesting!
After dozens of fierce battles, although Lu Bu was brave, he was not as invincible as imagined. Although his halberd skills were exquisite, his strength was not greater than his own. Zhao Yun's confidence only increased! The two fierce generals were locked in a fierce battle, but the outcome of the two armies was no longer in suspense.
When Yuan Jun's ambush troops rushed out, Lu Bu's army became even more confused. The screams were endless, heads rolled on the ground, Lu Bujun collapsed! How could Lu Bu not be embarrassed and annoyed when he pursued the fleeing enemy and was ambushed instead. Lu Bu finally saw through the enemy's conspiracy, but it was too late. As a general. The fear of defeat is not the fear of being manipulated by your opponent. If Lu Bu doesn't admit that he is stupid, he can't bear to be regarded as a fool by his opponents! Lu Bu is not a brainless and reckless man. Today's defeat is inevitable. He will be repaid twice as much in the future!
"Ouch..." Lu Bu let out a long roar, and Fang Tian drew his halberd and stabbed him several times.
"Drink!" Zhao Yun finally spoke, using his energy to support him, he knocked towards the painted halberd from bottom to top.
Lu Bu raised his halberd upwards. He pressed hard again!
"Hey!" shouted loudly, and the painted halberd seemed to be stuck to the iron gun. With both arms fighting, the iron gun was lowered by one foot! This is a competition of strength and momentum.
"Get up!" Zhao Yun pushed hard. The iron gun curved in a large arc and was raised upwards tenaciously! Lu Bu looked surprised. Not only was he surprised by Zhao Yun's power, but he was also surprised by the toughness of the Iron Spear.
Another person, if he was suppressed by Lu Bu's strength, there would be no way he could fight back. And another gun would never be able to withstand such power!
"Hi..." Lu Bu shouted wildly. The right hand holding the end of the halberd trembled rapidly several times! Buzz... Fang Tian's painted halberd actually buzzed! The vibration is so fast that it is difficult for onlookers to detect it.
However, Zhao Yun, who was in the middle of the game, felt a strong and domineering force coming from the halberd and the gun barrel!
This halberd-shaking technique is extremely gorgeous. Although it was not fatal, it was so shocking that Zhao Yun's muscles and bones were numb and he could barely hold the iron spear.
Lu Bu suddenly withdrew his halberd, as fast as the wind, and stabbed Zhao Yun in the chest! Zhao Yun's hands had not yet recovered from the numbness, and he was unable to block. He could only lean back and use the Seven Snakes Coiling Dragon move to avoid the fatal blow.
Lu Bu trembled and struck, not to kill the enemy, but to escape. Today's defeat is determined, but for the sake of face, Lu Bu wants to let his opponent know how powerful he is! While Zhao Yun was dodging, Lu Bu quickly dialed the red rabbit horse. He spurred his horse and left.
Head-on, a group of Wuhuan cavalry was approaching. Lu Bu and the cavalry were blocked, and the tiger and leopard cavalry's sprint came to a halt.
Yan Liang took the opportunity to command the Wuhuan cavalry to surround them on both sides. Although they did not have an advantage in hand-to-hand combat, it was the most effective method of consuming the soldiers' physical strength.
Yuan Xi, Jia Xu, Zhang Liao and others watched this thrilling battle from the high hill, secretly speechless, and several of them paid special attention to the weaknesses and omissions of the Yanzhou cavalry.
"Lü Bu's plan was to confuse the two wings. The idea of capturing the Chinese army was that if Zilong and the others had not resisted Lu Bu's advance, the Chinese army would have been destroyed in an instant.
It was defeated. Zhang Liao sighed, "Only Lu Bu can have such a powerful and arrogant offensive strategy." "
"Back then, Jia didn't have the opportunity to watch the Battle of Hulao, but today I finally understand one thing." Jia Xu nodded repeatedly, seeming to have some understanding: "Back then, Emperor Gao had such wise and resourceful strategists as Zhang Liang and Chen Ping, and he also had far superior officials. The enemy had enough food and soldiers, but why was he defeated repeatedly in battles? He did not defeat Xiang Yu until his troops left Wuguan."
"Xiang Yu is not only brave in martial arts, but also knows military strategy. He is extremely brave in charging into battle and attacking cities and territories." Yuan Xi said. But he changed the topic, "But courage alone is not enough. The key to victory is the combination of intelligence and courage. Although Xiang Yu won many battles, he was mobilized everywhere by Emperor Gao, and after all, he was still short of troops and food. Just like Lu Bu today, He is extremely brave and skilled in cavalry combat. Thousands of cavalrymen are about to defeat 30,000 Wuhuan cavalry. But they lost on one word of strategy, and their military strategy has always been inferior to ours!"
Jia Xu gave a rare smile. "My lord often compares Jia to Chen Ping, and Tian Feng to Xiao He. And Guo Fengxiao to Zhang Liang. I think the guest in Cao's camp must be Li Shiqi."
Yuan Xi smiled and said nothing.
Guo Tu's neck shrunk unconsciously. Making a break in this situation is called "dead time".
Although Li Shiqi had great achievements and great glory, he still had no life to enjoy it. If he had to choose, he would rather go to Yi Zhi or Lu Ya.
"There is a saying from the Martial Saint that you can use your time for everything." Yuan Xi also smiled and said: "Therefore, only those who are wise kings and wise generals and can achieve great success will achieve great success. Xu Ziyuan is the wise man!"
"In matters related to the three armies, don't be close to each other, and don't reward people with generous rewards." Jia Xu nodded in agreement, "Xu Ziyuan is naturally close to the lord and his ministers, and the lord has given him many rewards, which can be said to be generous rewards. He is an old acquaintance of Cao Cao. There is no one more suitable than him."
Although the words were high-sounding, Jia Xu knew that there were many secrets and transactions, but he would not point them out.
Yuan Xi smiled, did not answer, and continued to watch the fighting in the distance.
The Wuhuan cavalry on the right wing was completely dispersed. No matter how commanded Wen Chou and Duan Pizhen were, they could not get together. Moreover, they were increasingly withdrawing from the battle circle, and there were faint signs of retreat.
Wen Chou was furious. The Wuhuan soldiers were very difficult to command. This made him very depressed, and the current decline made him even more annoyed.
"Come on!" Wen Chou clapped his horse forward and picked off more than a dozen Yanzhou cavalry blocking the road.
When Cao Xing saw Wen Chou coming to kill him, he and Wei Xu fought against him.
Wen Chou's martial arts and state of mind have improved a lot since the last battle with Lu Bu. This time he was fighting against two generals alone without any fear.
The big iron gun flipped downwards laterally and attacked Wei Xu's abdomen. After the opponent dodged, he stretched his left hand forward to grip the middle of the gun shaft. Suddenly, he held the tail of the gun with both hands and stabbed Cao Xing with the tip of the gun.
This spear-piercing move is called "Green Dragon Going to the Sea". The attack range of the big iron spear is increased by more than two feet, and it hits Cao Xing who is dodging backwards.
"Ah!" Cao Xing screamed and fell off his horse.
Wei Xu saw Wen Chou and Wu Yong, and immediately retreated to the area covered by his own soldiers. Although Wen Chou used his own courage to save a while, he was unable to gather the defeated Wuhuan soldiers.
The situation in the middle became even more precarious. After Lu Bu and Cao Chun led the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to pin down the Chinese army, Gaoshun's trapped camp finally caught up. They cooperated with the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to kill the Wuhuan soldiers of the Chinese army.
Although Zhao Yun was brave and skilled in cavalry combat, he could not stop the joint attack of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and the trapped camp.
The Wuhuan cavalry in the middle collapsed instantly like a dam bursting, and Zhao Yun and Wusang could only lead a small group to withdraw.
Lu Bu looked back at the left and right wings, and shouted: "Break the left wing, then fight the right wing!" The moment Lu Bu passed by, Yuan's army was shattered. The halberd flew quickly, and several Wuhuan soldiers were lifted into the air one after another! He fell to the ground one after another and died of anger...
Pressing the shield, breaking the formation, launching the halberd, and killing the enemy, this series of actions was completed in the blink of an eye!
"Ouch..." Lu Bu roared wildly, letting go of the pent-up frustration in his heart, and then jumped on his horse to kill! The soldiers in Hebei, including Yuan Xi and Zhao Yun, were stunned. Lu Bu is really brave beyond imagination...
"Kill!" After defeating the Wuhuan cavalry, the Yanzhou army's morale was extremely high. They believed that if they fought for a while, they could completely defeat the Wuhuan soldiers.
"Woo!" Wuhuan people's horns sounded. Huge casualties
Huan Bing galloped back as if he had received a general amnesty.
Lu Bu immediately stood in the center of the battlefield. Looking at the broken limbs and dead horses of the Wuhuan soldiers around him, he smiled scornfully. Even a mere Hu Qi dared to shout in front of him. He has been fighting against Hu Yi since he was in the army. This kind of battle is really not as dangerous as it was in Bingzhou.
Cao Chun, Wei Xu, Cheng Lian and others also gathered their troops slightly.
"Tick-tock! Tick-tock!" The sound of horse hooves came from far away, and clouds of smoke appeared in the surrounding fields. Soon, groups of cavalry appeared in the field of vision of Lu Bu and others.
Lu Bu looked intently and saw that there were ten batches of cavalry appearing around him. Although they were not as powerful as the 30,000 Wuhuan cavalry just now, Lu Bu had a solemn look in his eyes. .
Because these cavalry teams are neat and rigorous, between each team. The speed of each ride is almost the same, which shows how strict the training is. Moreover, these cavalry have a stronger killing spirit and are definitely an elite force that has experienced many battles.
"Jizhou Cavalry!" Cheng Lian and others exclaimed. They had fought against each other on the side of Baima Mountain. At that time, the strength of the troops was equal, and there was no winner or loser between the two sides. But this time it's different. The opponent's size is at least one rider, which is twice as many as our own.
To make matters worse, the Yanzhou cavalry fought for half a day. Already the men are hungry and the horses are short. The soldiers may be able to fight again with their thoughts, but the horses are not as good as before.
Cao Chun's hands and feet were cold. If he had just faced 30,000 Wuhuan cavalry, he would have no fear. But under the absolute disadvantage at this time, he only had one word in his mind - escape! It's not that he is afraid of death, but he can't let Cao Cao's elite die here.
