From behind, Zhang Fei saw Liu Bei taking the initiative to charge the enemy. He couldn't sit still and hurriedly said to Zhang Heng: "Ziyi, you can escape alone. I'm going to help my brother."
After that, Zhang Fei was about to purge his troops and join the battlefield. When he was about to leave, he was suddenly stopped by Zhang Heng.
"Wait a minute, Yide!"
Zhang Fei turned his head with confusion on his face, only to see Zhang Hengzheng staring at the battlefield solemnly, his eyes flickering.
When he first saw the scene of the two armies fighting, Zhang Heng was a little excited, and even thought of joining the battle himself. But at this critical moment when we were outnumbered and the enemy was outnumbered, Zhang Heng became extremely calm.
In other words, he must force himself to calm down.
"Ziyi, if you have anything to say, please tell me quickly. I have to help my brother quickly!" Zhang Fei said loudly, his expression full of urgency.
"No!" Zhang Heng shook his head slowly but resolutely, "Let's not go up first and let's see the situation first."
"What!"
Zhang Fei couldn't believe his ears.
"The enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. Even if you lead a hundred soldiers to join us, it will not help. It is better to wait and see what happens."
If Liu Bei's army was defeated in one blow, Zhang Fei would be killed even if he led his men to charge forward.
But if Liu Bei blocks these thousand enemy troops, even if he is at a disadvantage, then Zhang Fei can lead these one hundred men to break into the encirclement and use the mobility advantage of the cavalry to divide the battlefield.
In this way, there may be a chance of victory!
Zhang Heng is waiting, waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to maximize the combat effectiveness of these one hundred people!
Although this is very unkind to Liu Bei, this is the only way Zhang Heng can think of at the moment to turn defeat into victory, otherwise the entire army will undoubtedly be annihilated.
But Zhang Heng's proposal was flatly rejected by Zhang Fei.
"No, my three brothers have sworn to live and die together. Even if we die, I will die with my brother!"
Zhang Fei glared at Zhang Heng and shouted.
"What's the use of dying?" Zhang Heng also suddenly raised his voice and confronted Zhang Fei without showing any signs of weakness. "If you die, you have nothing. Only living can you have hope!"
Zhang Fei was stunned by these words. He had never seen such excitement in Zhang Heng.
"Ziyi, you are right, but if I have to watch my brother fight alone, I can't do it..."
"You have to do it even if you can't do it. Xuande Gong and Yun Chang have been in battle for a long time, and they have been killed in mountains of blood and corpses many times. How could they be defeated so easily. If you want to win this battle, if you want to save them If you want to save your life, then listen to me."
With that said, Zhang Heng got off his horse and reached out to block Zhang Fei.
"When Mr. Xuande left just now, I asked you to obey my orders. If you insist on going out to fight now, then I will step on you!"
"this……"
Zhang Fei looked at the distance and then at Zhang Heng in front of the horse's hooves, feeling extremely embarrassed.
Zhang Heng quickly said: "Don't worry, Yide. If the time comes, I will charge into battle with you to rescue Xuande Gong and Yun Chang. Even if I die, I will have no regrets!"
After hearing these words, Zhang Fei sighed weakly and relaxed his tense hands.
"Okay, then it's all up to you."
Zhang Heng nodded seriously and immediately turned to observe the situation on the field.
At this time, Liu Bei was already rushing together with the enemy. The two cavalry running at high speed were like two ferocious beasts clashing and biting each other. As the weak side, nearly half of Liu Bei's soldiers were killed or wounded in an instant, and they were trapped in a bitter battle.
The good news is that, just as Zhang Heng expected, Liu Bei's veterans of hundreds of battles still have something to offer. They were not defeated by a wave of defeat, but instead held on to the enemy.
The bad news is that the enemy army is waiting for work and has a strength advantage. Facing Liu Bei's army, which has already fought one battle, it will form an overwhelming battle situation. If this continues, Liu Bei will be defeated for at least half an hour.
Especially the commander of Dong Zhuo's army, although he is only in his twenties, he is very methodical in fighting. He has a childish face with a cold expression. Wherever the sword in his hand passes, it can be said that ghosts and gods are making changes. Even compared to just now, Guan Yu, who was charging into the formation and beheading generals, did not give in too much.
On the other hand, Guan Yu at this time did not dare to continue deep into the enemy's hinterland alone.
First of all, the quality of this army is far better than that of Yang Yong just now. Even if Guan Yu rushes in, he will never be able to kill the enemy general.
Both of them, now that the army is in a tough battle, he has to stay by Liu Bei's side at all times. If nothing happens, he still has to protect Liu Bei from the siege.
In Guan Yu's heart, no matter how great his contribution was, it was not as good as a single hair of his brother Liu Bei.
After the battle lasted for about a quarter of an hour, there were fewer and fewer soldiers around Liu Bei, and they might be killed by the enemy at any time. The situation was already extremely dangerous.
On the other hand, the enemy general, a young man of about twenty years old, after killing all the soldiers of Liu Bei's army at the front, stopped advancing. Instead, he stood on his horse and began to command the army to encircle Liu Bei.
His goal is simple, to annihilate Liu Bei's army!
"Ziyi, you can attack now!"
Behind him, Zhang Fei saw Liu Bei in danger and shouted anxiously.
"No, not yet, wait a little longer."
Zhang Heng was also so worried that his hands were shaking a little, but he still shook his head firmly.
Because the variable he wants has not yet appeared.
"It will be dangerous if you wait any longer, brother!"
Zhang Fei's voice was a little hoarse because of his excitement.
Zhang Heng grabbed the reins of Zhang Fei's horse and said with a serious face: "The danger will have to wait. If we rush forward now, we will also be surrounded!"
In the battle formation, Liu Bei held two swords and fought hard.
Just now, the enemy troops had broken through Liu Bei's personal guards and reached him.
"Brother, bow your head!"
While he was fighting, he suddenly heard a loud shout from Guan Yu beside him. Liu Bei had no time to think, so he subconsciously lowered his head and fell suddenly on the horse's back.
The next moment, a halberd was thrust out from behind, but it missed the target.
Guan Yu took the opportunity and swept out with his broadsword, cutting the enemy soldier who was sneaking behind him into two halves!
"Brother, are you okay?" Guan Yu asked with concern on his face.
Liu Bei shook his head, then straightened up and looked into the distance.
There were three circles inside and three outside, all surrounded by enemy troops.
On the other hand, at this point in the fight, less than half of the soldiers under his command were already there.
"Yun Chang, we are defeated."
Liu Bei shook his head and sighed, his voice a little low.
Guan Yu advised: "Victory and defeat are common matters for military officers. Brother, don't be discouraged. Let's break out of the encirclement quickly."
"That's right. Break out quickly. If it's too late, you won't be able to escape."
Liu Bei nodded sharply, then turned his horse's head and began to gather his soldiers, preparing to break out of the encirclement.
But this action is destined not to go smoothly.
When the young general Dong Zhuojun saw Liu Bei's intention to break out, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and then he raised his hand and waved. The messengers beside him immediately issued orders, and the army began to rapidly change formations.
"You killed Yang Yong, but I can't let you go. Otherwise, how can I do business when I go back?"
The young general whispered to himself, his eyes full of determination.
