While Huang Zhong was deep in thought, another scout came to report again, saying that the leader of the enemy army was general Yang Qiu, who was attacking the invaders.
"Yang Qiu?" Huang Zhongxin said, isn't that the guy who was driven away by Wei Yan? What kind of cats and dogs dare to mess with me now?
Huang Zhong originally wanted to retreat according to Zhao Yun's arrangement, but Yang Qiu's appearance directly touched his back scale. Huang Zhong Hengdao immediately shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Although Zhang He ran away, now Yang Qiu is here to die. I want to ask you are you tired?" ?”
"No." Two thousand cavalry shouted in unison.
"Very good, then come and fight with me." Huang Zhong's words were full of heroism, completely forgetting Zhao Yun's words.
Zhang He had retreated to Yinpan County at this time. The battle report he sent to urge Cao Zhen was in a dilemma. If he allocated food to the front line, the soldiers in the rear would starve. If he did not reinforce the food supply, he would worry about the morale of the troops in the front. In the future, the food supply in the direction of muddy water would If the road is cut off, Anding will completely lose supplies from Beidi County.
Zhao Yun had no shortage of food in Guanzhong, so Cao Zhen had no choice but to send Yang Qiu to help in the battle, thinking that the opponent was a local and familiar with the terrain, and might be able to resolve the crisis. In addition, Yang Qiu The title is Linjing Marquis. If Anding is captured by the Han army, the fiefdom he actually controls will no longer exist. Cao Zhen is sure that Yang Qiu will try his best to block the attacks of Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong for his own benefit.
Yang Qiu and Zhang He met in Yinpan. When he learned that Zhang He withdrew his troops without fighting, he couldn't help but sternly rebuked: "General Zhang, Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong are also human beings, why are they doing this?"
"Zhao Yun set up a pot in front of the formation. He was not making soup, but boiling our military morale. The soldiers looked eagerly, how would they respond if the Marquis of Linjing faced the enemy? What does this have to do with the bravery of Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong? "Zhang He has a lot of experience in making excuses. Yang Qiu just made fun of him, and he retorted directly.
"You should give it a try, otherwise how can you explain it to General Cao?" Yang Qiu had a higher title than Zhang He, but he still held on even if he was reprimanded.
Zhang He was dumbfounded, then he clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Haha, Huang Zhong has been chasing me for a day, and now he must be exhausted. The most powerful cavalry only has 2,000 people. I see that Linjing Marquis's soldiers are full of energy, why not take advantage of the enemy?" Attack him when you are tired? Maybe you can kill old Huang Zhong and avenge General Xiahou."
"Oh? In that case, why doesn't Junyi lead his troops to attack with me?" Yang Qiuzhen became interested.
Zhang Hexin said, how dare you? Then he said calmly: "The soldiers are all exhausted. If we lead the troops to fight back, Huang Zhong may be frightened away. The Marquis of Linjing has five thousand infantry and cavalry, which should be enough to deal with Huang Zhong. Although the old guy is good at martial arts, his behavior is a bit messy." If you are reckless, you can use words to encourage him to stabilize him, and wait until Huang Zhong falls into his trap before encircling him."
"Well, that makes sense." Yang Qiu stroked his beard and confirmed.
"The Marquis of Linjing is suppressed by his troops, so don't fight him. Huang Zhong is by no means an easy person." Zhang He didn't want to lose, so even if he was scolded by Yang Qiu, he didn't forget to remind him.
Yang Qiu nodded, "I don't have to worry about it. Jun Yi will go to Yinpan to rest first, and I will join you after I capture Huang Zhong."
"Okay." Zhang He clasped his fists and parted ways with Yang Qiu.
Yang Qiu was not reckless. He took the risk to confront Huang Zhong. First of all, he wanted to maintain stability. If he could kill or capture Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun would definitely withdraw his troops if he fought alone, so that his fiefdom of Linjing would still be there; secondly, Zhang He's analysis It makes sense. I have the advantage of fighting more and waiting for work. No one can resist this temptation.
Yang Qiu listened to Zhang He's suggestion and deliberately made the formations of each battalion appear messy. He also placed the old and weak at the front of the team to weaken Huang Zhong's vigilance.
The two armies had their own agendas, and they encountered each other on a riverbank ten miles southeast of Yinpan County. Yang Qiu leaped in front of the formation, pointed at Huang Zhong, and cursed: "Old Huang Zhong, how dare you invade our territory of the Wei Dynasty? You know you will die soon." All."
"Bah, where did the Wei Dynasty come from? This is the territory of the Han Dynasty. General Ma came out of Liangzhou with you and is now the hussar general of the Han Dynasty. If you surrender, you will also be rewarded with a title. I will lead your Majesty's heavenly troops here. If you dare If you stubbornly resist, don't blame me for being ruthless." Huang Zhong's eyes widened in anger.
"Old thief with white beard, you are still working for Liu Bei at your age. It shows that his so-called big man has no one left. Yan Yan may be your role model." Yang Qiu snorted coldly.
"If you don't eat the toast, then go out and die. I think you have a bad tone. Do you dare to fight to the death with me?" Huang Zhong raised his knife and shouted.
Yang Qiu stroked his beard and laughed: "Haha, I have thousands of elite soldiers. Why am I stupid enough to fight with you? Are you confused?"
Huang Zhong raised his head and glanced around, and found that the soldiers beside Yang Qiu were staggering. He thought to himself, can these weak soldiers be considered elite soldiers? Isn’t that sending someone’s head thousands of miles away?
"You dare not accept the challenge. I will kill you in the chaos. Sons and sons, charge forward." Huang Zhong waved his hand, and the cavalry screamed and rushed over like wind and clouds.
"Well done." Yang Qiu retreated decisively, and then ordered each battalion to change their formations.
Huang Zhong took the lead and was invincible, and gradually led his bodyguards to cut into the depths of the enemy's army. When he was killing successfully, he found that the Wei army had changed and became more and more powerful, cutting Huang Zhong's cavalry into several small pieces.
After the cavalry was surrounded by infantry, the war horses lost the distance needed to advance. Looking at the Wei army in front, back, left and right, the Han army's nervousness appeared continuously. Moreover, the war horses ran for a long time and suddenly stopped. If they tried to speed up again, they became quite sluggish. Seeing Huang The two thousand loyal cavalrymen will be divided and eaten by Yang Qiu.
Yang Qiu stood on the perimeter and commanded, thinking to himself, what's so great about Huang Zhong killing Xia Houyuan? In the end, he was not the reckless man who died in my hands.
When Huang Zhong was in trouble, a thunderous sound rang out from the valley in the southeast, and soon he came into view after crossing the bend, with the big Chinese character Zhao written on the flag.
At the critical moment, Zhao Yun came to rescue Huang Zhong again. Although he was commanding the main force from the rear, he was also always paying attention to the dynamics of Huang Zhong's front. When he learned that Huang Zhong was running wildly with the cavalry alone, he foresaw that Huang Zhong might be in danger.
Although Huang Zhong's front was surrounded, the trapped beasts were still fighting strong. Yang Qiu's five thousand cavalry could only survive the encirclement. If he still had to deal with Zhao Yun who came to support him, he would be at risk of being wiped out.
"Shoot random arrows into the formation." Yang Qiu ordered the army commander beside him.
The Army Sima was startled when he heard this, and quickly admonished: "General, we have more soldiers than Huang Zhong, and random arrows can easily hurt our own people."
Yang Qiu said angrily: "Execute the order. They are fortunate enough to be buried with Huang Zhong, and they deserve to die. This general will comfort their families."
"Wei." Army Sima immediately clasped his fists and gave the order.
In the blink of an eye, arrows rained down on the melee battlefield.
As random arrows were shot from the front, Huang Zhong, who was surrounded by Gaixin, paid attention first. He quickly reminded others to use their cloaks and weapons to block the arrows, while the Wei soldiers faced the arrows with their backs, causing more casualties.
"The thief is about to release his arrows. Changshan Zhao Zilong is coming." When Zhao Yun was about to approach, he pointed his gun and shouted forward.
The five words "Changshan Zhao Zilong" kept echoing in the river valley, shocking the hair on the Wei army's body and giving hope to the besieged Han army.
"It's Zilong who is here. That shameless thief Yang Qiu dares to scheme against me. When I go out in a while, I have to kill his dog head." Huang Zhong was happy.
