When Zhao Yun saw what Zhang Xiu said, he laughed and said, "I will never forget my master's teachings! Even in the midst of thousands of troops, I can come and go freely, so what do I have to fear?"
Zhang Xiu laughed loudly and said: "Okay, then we brothers and sisters will go into battle together tomorrow and let everyone in the world see that the disciples taught by the old master are fearless!"
Zhao Yun nodded heavily.
The two returned to the city wall.
Zhao Yun selected several generals who were good at riding and shooting to come out.
Among them is Tian Yu.
Then he found twenty more cavalrymen.
Que Ze and others heard that Zhao Yun and Lu Bu were going to fight tomorrow. Although they were a little worried, they could only do this.
Que Ze asked Zhao Yun to rest first, while he and others were responsible for inspecting the city wall tonight.
Zhao Yun was not polite either.
The group slept until dawn and then hurriedly gathered together.
Lu Bu also followed the instructions and rushed over with a hundred cavalry.
Under Zhang Xiu's arrangement, everyone divided the thousand cavalry into three parts.
Zhao Yun was in charge of the main force of the central army and led Wancheng's 800 cavalry.
Lu Bu led one hundred cavalrymen on the left.
Zhang Xiu led the Wancheng cavalry on the right.
Zhang Xiu's cavalry group was ostensibly led by Tian Yu, but in fact, once the war started, Zhang Xiu would be led by Zhang Xiu.
This challenge to Wen Chou's six thousand cavalry had only one purpose: Zhao Yun's main force of the Chinese army feigned an attack, while Lu Bu and Zhang Xiu launched attacks from the left and right sides to kill the enemy commander Wen Chou!
Zhang Xiu arranged the target of a thousand cavalry, and the thousand cavalry conducted simple coordination training in the city.
At sunrise in the east, the gates of Pengcheng were opened and the suspension bridge was lowered. Led by Zhao Yun, a thousand cavalry walked out of Pengcheng in a sharp knife formation and formed on the other side of the moat.
On the city wall, Que Ze, Chen Jiao and other civil servants and generals all had their hearts in their throats.
Countless soldiers have prepared fortifications to prevent the defeat of a thousand cavalry and successfully retreat into the city.
Everyone waited for nearly an hour, and the army slowly came from Yuan Jun's camp far outside the city.
As expected, Yuan Shao's army only dispatched Wen Chou's 6,000 cavalry this time!
Six thousand cavalrymen appeared in the wild goose formation.
Among them, Wenchou was in charge of the Chinese army.
Behind Wen Chou and six thousand cavalry, Yuan Tan led the generals and nearly a thousand personal guards to watch the battle.
Zhou Yu is also among them, right next to Yuan Tan.
As soon as the group of people set out, a soldier reported back: "Pengcheng did send a thousand cavalry to fight."
Yuan Tan grinned and said: "These Jiangdong generals are all brainless. They actually tried to defeat General Wen's 6,000 cavalry with a thousand cavalry. It is really speechless."
A general smiled and said: "Jiangdong has always been superior in water warfare, but poor in land warfare. I have only dealt with bandits my whole life. Where have I seen what a real cavalry looks like?"
Another general sarcastically said: "General Wen will teach them how to behave later! Among us Hebei men and horses, the cavalry is the real terror! Even the white-horse Yi Cong was defeated by General Wen's cavalry."
The other generals also laughed at him.
Zhou Yu followed Yuan Tan on horseback and remained silent.
These people humiliated the Jiangdong soldiers so much that he felt very uncomfortable.
However, he was somewhat powerless to refute at this time.
He knew very well the combat capabilities of Jiangdong's soldiers. In terms of land warfare, they were indeed inferior to those from the north.
As for the cavalry, that's even worse.
Many soldiers may have never even ridden a war horse!
Even for some senior generals, the war horses they ride are far inferior to the northern war horses.
Zhou Yu secretly scolded Lu Yi in his heart.
Comparing Lu Yi and Bo Fu, whether it is battlefield combat or official appointment, there is a difference between a child and a strong man.
If Bo Fu were still alive, even if Bo Fu himself was not the one guarding Pengcheng this time, he would have let Cheng Pu, Zhu Zhi or Huang Gai and other experienced veterans.
The worst is a brave person like Tai Shi Ci.
As a result, who did Lu Yi appoint?
Zhao Yun?
Tian Yu?
Que Ze?
Chen Jiao?
They are all young people, fledglings!
These people have never heard of them.
No combat experience at all.
So much so that they would do such ridiculous things in such a desperate situation——
He even tried to use Jiangdong's thousand cavalry to challenge Wen Chou's six thousand cavalry!
Don't talk about such a huge gap.
Even with the same strength, Jiangdong cavalry cannot be an opponent of Wen Chou cavalry.
Although he hated Wen Chou and other Hebei generals very much, they were all arrogant and unruly.
However, it has been some time since he defected to Yuan Shao, but he saw with his own eyes the majesty of these soldiers in Hebei.
Especially Wen Chou's cavalry, once activated, they were almost devastating, which made him envious.
He wants all such cavalry.
When Jiangdong is recaptured in the future, he will find a way to train such a cavalry for Jiangdong.
At present, the only ones who can resist Wen Chou's cavalry are the Yongliang cavalry.
Yuan Tan followed Wen Chou's six thousand cavalry and rushed outside Pengcheng.
Sure enough, they saw Zhao Yun leading a thousand cavalry waiting outside Pengcheng.
In these days, they had fought against Pengcheng's defenders several times, and they basically recognized all of Pengcheng's generals.
The generals of the thousand cavalry sent by Pengcheng this time are all familiar ones.
Wen Chou ordered the six thousand cavalry to stop about a mile away from Zhao Yun's one thousand cavalry.
He stood up from his horse and looked at the thousand cavalry led by Zhao Yun.
Wen Chou exclaimed: "Oh, I think I saw a familiar person!"
Yuan Tan and others also rode up.
After hearing Wen Chou's words, Yuan Tan and others also stood up with the help of the personal guards.
Yuan Tan smiled and said: "Lü Bu! Lu Bu actually went to war this time! Before, General Wen made a surprise attack on Langya County, and this Lu Bu fled after hearing the news. Now, he dares to come and die!"
Looking at Wen Chou, Yuan Tan said: "General Wen, you have to be careful. Lu Bu is still quite capable in cavalry combat."
Wen Chou sneered.
He fought against Lu Bu!
At that time, Lu Bu and Situ Wang Yun killed Dong Zhuo, and then were defeated by the armies of Li Jue and Guo Si. They fled the capital in a hurry. They first went to Yuan Shu, but after being rejected by Yuan Shu, they turned to Yuan Shao.
At that time, everyone was fighting Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Army in Changshan. It was at that time that Wen Chou saw Lu Bu take action for the first time.
Brave indeed.
But that's all.
After that, Lu Bu relied on his military exploits and became arrogant and domineering, but he didn't even take the soldiers of Hebei seriously.
Yuan Shao asked Wen Chou and others to fight with Lu Bu and drive him out.
Lu Bu dared to resist when he first met other Hebei generals.
When Yuan Shao asked Wen Chou to lead the cavalry to fight, before Wen Chou and other cavalry arrived, Lu Bu got wind of the situation and fled.
After that, he was never seen again.
Previously, Wen Chou made a surprise attack on Langya County, and Lu Bu once again heard about it and fled.
Wen Chou pointed the riding crop at Lu Bu and said to Yuan Tan confidently: "Master, don't panic. I will take off Lu Bu's head and present it to you later."
Yuan Tan smiled and said: "General Wen, I'm waiting for your good news!"
Wen Chou clasped his fists and said to the ordering soldiers beside him: "Blow the horn and prepare for battle!"
The ordering soldiers all roared: "Blow the horn and prepare to attack!"
Suddenly, behind the six thousand cavalry, soldiers blew their horns.
The solemn horn sound resounded throughout the sky in Pengcheng.
On the city wall, Que Ze, Chen Jiao and other soldiers who were guarding the city swallowed their saliva one by one, not daring to make a sound, and stared intently at the cavalry armies on both sides outside the city.
Zhao Yun saw that Wen Chou's cavalry had blown the horn and raised his spear.
Behind him, all the cavalry were ready to go.
As the trumpet sound in Wen Chou's army stopped, Wen Chou gave an order, and six thousand cavalry suddenly surged towards Zhao Yun like a tide.
Zhao Yun put down the spear in his hand and roared: "Attack!"
Taking the lead, Zhao Yun rode his war horse and was the first to meet the surging Wen Chou cavalry.
Behind him, a thousand cavalrymen in the shape of sharp knives followed closely and inserted directly into the Wen Chou cavalry.
The war horses whine.
Screams broke out.
Countless cavalrymen fell off their horses during the collision, were trampled directly by the horses, or were penetrated by weapons.
The expressions of Yuan Tan and other generals suddenly changed.
How can it be!
Pengcheng's thousand-man cavalry was actually so brave.
No less than Wen Chou's six thousand cavalry!
However, although everyone was shocked, they did not panic.
Wen Chou's six thousand cavalry were also experienced in hundreds of battles.
Moreover, the number was as high as six thousand, six times the enemy's army.
Even Gongsun Zan's white horse Yi Cong was broken into their hands.
They didn't believe that this thousand-man Jiangdong cavalry would be stronger than the white horse Yi Cong!
The cavalry led by Zhao Yun and the cavalry led by Wen Chou passed by each other. The two sides immediately turned around and faced each other again.
Seeing that the second confrontation was about to happen, the cavalry on Zhao Yun's left and right sides suddenly split.
When Wen Chou's cavalry faced Zhao Yun's main cavalry again, these two hundred-man cavalry circled around both sides of Wen Chou's cavalry like lightning!
Wen Chou, who was fighting with the army, changed his expression slightly, and immediately signaled for the cavalry army to intercept on both sides.
However, these two cavalry are too fast!
Moreover, the cooperation is so tacit.
Lu Bu and Zhang Xiu waved in unison.
The two hundred-man cavalry immediately separated into fifty-man detachments and charged into Wen Chou's two sides to intercept the cavalry.
The man fell on his back!
At this time, Lu Bu and Zhang Xiu each led fifty cavalrymen and went around the back of their army. They tore through the cloth like two sharp daggers and plunged directly into Wen Chou's cavalry army.
Wen Chou's army is currently colliding with Zhao Yun's main army!
Wen Chou was besieged from three sides!
When Yuan Tan and other generals saw this, they all screamed: "General Wen, be careful!"
Wen Chou was furious.
This group of Jiangdong wastes, their goal is actually their commander-in-chief!
I, Wen Chou, beheaded Qu Yi and destroyed Gongsun Zan. How can I be afraid of you?
Seeing Zhang Xiu and Lu Bu running from behind, Wen Chou simply gave up on them and rushed straight towards Zhao Yun.
As long as you kill Zhao Yun, the general of Jiangdong's thousand-man cavalry, your encirclement will fail!
Moreover, Zhao Yun was also the Cavalry Commander of Xuzhou.
Once he dies, let’s see how you, Xuzhou, can resist our army going south!
Wen Chou and Zhao Yun quickly approached as the cavalry from both sides clashed.
Seeing the two sides approaching, Wen Chou raised his sword and roared: "Zhao Yun, son, suffer death!!!!"
A spear spun violently, and when the sword fell, it pierced Wen Chou's throat, strung his body on the spear, and flew him dozens of meters away!
The second round of hedging between the cavalry of both sides was completed.
Zhao Yun turned his horse's head, held his spear high, with Wen Chou's body strung on the spear, and roared crazily at the Wen Chou cavalry army on the opposite side: "Come on! Come on! Come on!!!"
