With the right wing at a disadvantage, Xu Rong led the Chinese cavalry to break out of the formation. After a powerful attack, Liu Bei's army was torn into two pieces. This was really beyond everyone's expectation.
After breaking the formation, the first people to bump into Liang Qi were the drummers beating drums on the river bank. When they saw Liang Qi rushing over, they were frightened and panicked. They dropped their drumsticks and ran away, but Liang Qi was not very interested in them. , they were shooting arrows on their horses, shooting the scattered drummers like chickens and rabbits to death on the river beach, while waiting for the new command from the commander.
Xu Rong was very proud of his successful attack. He first asked his close relatives, "What do you think of me?" All his close friends admired him and said, "The general uses his troops like a god, which is truly extraordinary!" Because Baibo's army was in front of everyone. Due to the withdrawal from the war, the morale of the Liang army had already fallen to the bottom. However, Xu Rong seized a gap in the uneven formation of the merged army and reversed the situation, encircling the left wing of the merged army. The morale of the Liang army was immediately restored. Vibrate.
Correspondingly, the merged army was in great panic. Liu Bei looked up from the central army and saw that after the left wing was cut open, the flag was swaying. It was obvious that the morale of the army was chaotic. The soldiers who were chasing the Liang army on the right wing heard the drum. When the sound stopped, they couldn't help but gradually stop the offensive, trying to figure out what went wrong. Gradually, some people started to say that the Liang Army's attack was so majestic that even General Zhengxi was killed by the Liang Army.
When Liu Bei saw that the soldiers in front were also commotion, he couldn't help being furious. He first said angrily to the people around him: "Why are you so useless! Swords are just dead objects. If you are not afraid of them, they will be afraid of you!" Then he said to those behind him! The flag soldier said: "Hold up my flags so that the whole army can see that I am here!" The flag soldiers around him hurriedly agreed and set up a very bright crimson flag with four characters written high on it. The official script read: "It is difficult to bring peace to the country." As soon as this three-foot-high flag was erected, both the Liang army and the Bing army realized where Liu Bei was.
In this way, the commotion in the merged army slowly calmed down. But Liang Jun also learned the position of the enemy's coach, and many people were eager to try. For example, Hu Che'er asked Xu Rong to fight: "Liu Xuande is seeking death. Why doesn't Jianwei attack with all his strength? As long as his flag falls, this will be over." If you fight with us, you can come home victorious."
Xu Rong was also quite moved, but he had no intention of fighting in the first place. At this time, he thought that the troops and horses had just broken through the siege and the left flank of the merging army had not yet been captured. If he was not careful, he would be at a disadvantage again. He made a move Not determined to kill Liu Bei with all his strength, he said to Hu Che'er: "I can only give you two thousand riders, do you dare to join the battle and behead him?"
Hu Che'er was overjoyed. He clapped his hands and said with a smile: "The enemy's cavalry are all in the south, and there are only a few who can be mine. As long as there are two hundred cavalry, I will behead Liu Bei and bring a great victory to the army!"
When Xu Rong heard this, he immediately transferred two army commanders and asked them to charge with Hu Che'er.
Liu Bei was unaware of Xu Rong's decision at this time. Although the morale of the army had stabilized at this time, it did not help the fact that the left wing was torn apart by the Liang army. He looked at the battlefield situation and guessed that the formation cut off by the Liang army was the border troops, and he couldn't help but feel He secretly cursed Bian Yi for his incompetence, but he could not let him be annihilated by the Liang army, otherwise the left wing would be completely defeated and the morale of the central army and the right wing would be difficult to maintain.
He had no idea at the moment, so he could only ask the generals around him: "Now that there is a new crisis, who among you can help the Lord of Bianfu?" The generals around him, such as Gu Yi and others, looked embarrassed and did not dare to answer. After all, the cavalry in the army The army rushed to the foot of the mountain, and Liu Bei was surrounded by infantry. How could it be feasible to charge the cavalry with infantry?
Tian Yu suddenly had a quick wit and said to Liu Bei: "It will be difficult to conquer the west if we divide our troops to relieve the siege. But the enemy has concentrated heavy troops in the north, and the troops in the south will inevitably be weak. It is better to issue a general attack order for the whole army and have the whole army go south. , you can regroup your troops and then turn around to attack the thieves!"
"The Ronin Begins with Douluo"
When Liu Bei heard this, he realized that he was "good". Now that there was no drum formation, he ordered his bodyguards around him to blow the general offensive order. The loud horn sounded loudly, and the crimson Jingnan flag began to move slowly southward. The generals on the left wing all reacted and moved southward.
At this time, Hu Che'er was overjoyed when he heard the sound of the trumpet. He said to Sima who was accompanying him: "First there is the general's flag, and then there is the military trumpet. There must be Liu Xuande's headquarters there! Don't waste your life, gentlemen, this is where you will make great achievements." At that time! If you all die, I will also die in the enemy's formation!"
After saying this, he rode his horse towards the merging formation with the soldiers. True to his words, he rode his horse at the front, holding the horse's belly between his legs, holding two long knives, waving his hands with both hands and howling wildly. At this time, the combined army had just obeyed the order to attack south, and thought that the Liang army would destroy the left wing first, so there was not much preparation, and they did not expect that the enemy would attack the central army first. Facing the madman-like Hu Che'er tribe, they were at a loss. Everyone in front died, and the formation of the Chinese army gradually deformed and became chaotic.
It's just that Hu Che'er was in the lead among the soldiers. When he was riding into the battle, he didn't want a stray arrow to fly and break his mount's neck. As soon as he stood up after falling off the horse, several soldiers who had joined the army immediately surrounded him and killed him. I want to pounce on him and chop my head off. Hu Che'er was furious. Facing many enemies, he first threw out a long knife, and then pulled out a short knife from his waist. He moved his body left and right, using the long knife and short knife to interact with each other, driving all the enemies away, and then When he saw the two of them alone, he immediately picked up a short knife and slashed at them, slashing their necks to pieces. The others were so frightened that they didn't dare to get close and went back to the formation.
Hu Che'er then asked his entourage for a yellow gelding horse and started to kill Jiangqi again. Only then did Liu Bei react and asked the generals around him: "This thief is so fierce, who can take responsibility for me?"
Wang Cen, who joined the army from Jinyang, said loudly: "I am willing to go." He was originally a warrior from Hedong. When he saw Liu Bei resisting Dong Zhuo's army in Maojin, he admired him in his heart, so he followed him all the way to Jinyang. Liu Bei saw that he was very strong and could lift He took a heavy object of eight hundred kilograms with him and used it as a guard.
When Liu Bei saw him asking for a fight, he gave him the few hundred knights in his formation and told him: "Looking at their formation, as long as you kill the leader of the thieves, the force will be broken. Don't think too much, just attack and kill him alone." "Wang Cen responded generously. After the knights were in place, he immediately rode forward, holding a long spear in his hand and shouted: "How dare you come to seek death, the traitor!"
When Hu Che'er saw this, he showed disdain on his face. He drove his horse and whipped his horse, and rushed forward with a long knife. The two sides exchanged only one blow, and when the two horses were crossing each other, Hu Che'er suddenly reached out, grabbed Wang Cen's pole, and dragged it back. Wang Cen's strength was considerable, but Hu Che'er's was even greater. In addition to his lack of experience in horseback combat, he was dragged into Hu Che'er's arms with his upper body attached, while his lower body was still buckled in the stirrups. Not dragged out. Because of Hu Che'er's strength, the two war horses changed from staggering to spinning in circles and walking slowly. Che'er didn't allow Wang Cen to break free. He pulled out the short knife from his waist with his left hand and cut off his head neatly. He threw the head into the air and dropped it with blood drops among the merging knights. Wang Cen's headless body was still sitting upright on the horse, swaying with the slow pace of the horse. Seeing this, the nearby soldiers all retreated in horror.
This caused Hu Che'er to break through the second formation in a row, and the morale of the merging troops was greatly shattered. Even the soldiers holding the flag couldn't help but waver repeatedly. Hu Che'er was only 300 steps away from Liu Bei's main formation, and Liu Bei could almost see him. There was blood on his face, but he did not panic. Instead, he drew out his swords and smiled at the guards around him: "A man like this must be a warrior of the enemy army. If you kill him, you will take away his breath!" After saying that, he waved the sword flowers with both hands, It was obvious that my hands were itching unbearably.
At this time, Taishi Ci tried to dissuade the soldier, saying, "Why should I risk my life when I am conquering the West?" Seeing his calm expression, Liu Bei asked Taishi Ci, "Is there a strategy to retreat from the enemy?" Taishi Ci smiled and said, " Why do you need to use strategies for such a reckless man? Let’s conquer the west and see if I can break it with three arrows!”
After that, he took out the three-stone bow from the bow bag, and took out the extremely sharp armor-piercing arrow from the quiver. He put it on the bow string, put a jade guard on his right thumb to prevent cuts, and pulled the bow as hard as he could. Full. Seeing that Hu Che'er was a hundred steps closer, he secretly screamed "let go". With a muffled groan, he loosened the bow string with his right hand, pointed at the enemy and shot.
The arrow sank into the yellow gelding's forehead, leaving only the yellow and white arrow feathers exposed. The yellow gelding stopped on the spot, as if frozen, staggered and fell to the ground, knocking Hu Che'er to the ground with it. Hu Che'er was not injured when he fell down. He was about to get up and change horses with his entourage. Then he became alert and heard a very slight and sharp "whoosh" in the air. He suddenly felt a penetrating feeling in his right arm, and then There was a sharp pain. He looked down and saw that his right arm had been pierced by an armor-piercing arrow, and he could no longer hold the long knife.
Hu Che'er looked in the direction of the arrow feathers and saw a yellow-armored warrior standing among the crowd a hundred steps away. He took out an armor-piercing arrow from his quiver. Taishi Ci took a deep breath, and it was obvious that three shots were fired. The stone bow was extremely difficult, but he still aimed at Hu Che'er's head in an orderly manner. Hu Che'er was greatly alert. The moment Taishi Ci shot the third arrow, he immediately pulled out his short sword with his left hand and protected his face, only to hear There was a "clang" sound, and he felt severe pain in his left wrist again. This time, it was not that he was shot, but that the blade collided with three armor-piercing arrows. Hu Che'er used all his wrist strength, and his wrist almost couldn't bear it. . He put down the dagger, and it broke into two pieces with a "crack" sound.
Now he couldn't use his hands, and he couldn't charge anymore. Sima who was accompanying him asked him: "Can we still enter?" He shook his head and replied: "We can't advance even an inch." So the Liangqi all came to cover and escort him. He walked back, and there were not many knights among the soldiers, so they could only shoot arrows as hard as they could. Some of the cool knights exposed their backs and were shot like hedgehogs. Most of them fell here, but they did not stop Hu Che'er in the end.
When Liu Bei saw this, he greatly admired Tai Shici and said, "Ziyi, when you showed off your skills in front of the battle, I only thought that you were superb in horse fighting, but now I know that your archery skills are even more superhuman!"
Taishi Ci put the three-stone bow back into his bow bag, bowed his head to Liu Bei and said in shame: "In the previous horse battle, we exhausted all our strength and failed to fully draw the third bow, so we actually let this man run away. When we meet next time, I don't know how many warriors will be sacrificed. "
