"Kill!" The men and horses on both sides were intertwined and charging non-stop. Guo Bang was like a man in a daze, obsessed with charging, leading the cavalry to charge back and forth, without caring about Zhang Ji's situation at all, as if he was letting himself go. , taking full advantage of the cavalry, Zhang Bao grinned all the time. In order to block Guo Si, he had sent 50,000 elite troops, and there were still 40,000 to attack Zhang Ji. He was originally very confident in his elite troops, but I didn't expect that the cavalry would be so powerful when they charged. Fortunately, I learned a new formation from "Taiping Yashu". A small team of ten people worked together to restrain the cavalry. Now it seems that the effect is pretty good. Just when Zhang Bao was deserting, there was a sudden cry of killing. He was startled. He thought Cheng Feng had taken action. He quickly looked up and saw that it was Hua Xiong who came to respond with elite troops. With these 50,000 Elite soldiers joined in, and the battlefield situation changed again. The Xiliang army set up their formation and slowly pressed forward. The oppressive atmosphere seemed to have infected the sky. Suddenly, the wind picked up, and with it a hint of coolness, many of these people who were trapped in the killing A little clarity! When the battle between the two armies reached a fever pitch, Zhang Bao waved his hand, and another 50,000 elite soldiers appeared. Cheng Feng's expression changed. Although his soldiers were more powerful than these elites, they couldn't stand up to the large number of them. Look at Zhang Bao. In this case, there should be a hidden army. After all, he has not taken action yet, and Dong Zhuo has not arrived yet. If Zhang Bao takes out all his troops now, it will be more than worth the gain!

"Hurry up and inform General Ren Gong and ask him to lead his troops to attack Dong Zhuo's camp. Remember, wait for Dong Zhuo's troops to come to support you before attacking!" Zhang Bao told the people around him, "Also, let Zhang Yan led his 100,000 Black Mountain troops and pretended to attack Changshan to contain Cheng Feng. When Dong Zhuo arrives, you all press forward and set fire to the food and grass while the wind is blowing!"

"Yes, General!"

Not long after, there were hundreds of thousands more Yellow Turbans not far from Changshan County. However, the Yellow Turbans were dressed differently from the previous Yellow Turbans. They were well-equipped and mostly wore black clothes. The leader had not been seen much. The most important thing was that the new ones were here. The group of people had cavalry, a lot of cavalry, more than 30,000! Because Zhang Yan has been plundering both inside and outside the pass all year round, and even the Qiang people are often plundered by him, his Black Mountain Army has a lot of war horses. In addition, he takes advantage of Zhang Jiao's uprising to fight against the government troops everywhere. The combat effectiveness of the soldiers and horses was no less than Zhang Bao's elite. If I hadn't seen that there were many Yellow Turban believers in my tribe, I wouldn't have joined Zhang Jiao and the others. How free it would be to be my "Zhang Feiyan"!

"Brother, why did the Yellow Turban Army suddenly have so many elites?" Zhao Yun was a little puzzled. This has completely changed his perception. In his eyes, the Yellow Turban Army are just ordinary people who have been deceived and should have no fighting ability. Yes, where did so many troops come from? It seems that being a big brother is not easy! Just like the scammer next to me, there is no time for others to see through!

Cheng Feng was not anxious at all. This was all within his expectation. He was just not sure how many people Zhang Bao had, but looking at him like this, he should still have a lot of back-ups. "Zilong, wait a minute." Dong Zhuo will come soon, and after they fight, I will keep these 100,000 black guys at bay, and then you can go up again!" Cheng Feng thought for a while and said to Zhao Yun,

"Okay! Brother, just keep an eye on it. It's just that I'm worried that Zhang Bao has other soldiers. After all, this is the first time we have a head-on confrontation with him. This man has always been cautious. This time he actually led the troops to go out in person. It seems that he has Come prepared!" Zhao Yun has been following Cheng Feng for a long time, and now he is no longer so innocent, and his stomach is a little twisted!

"Let's take a look and talk about it. Why are you in a hurry? There are not many opportunities for live broadcasts. Study more and see how the Xiliang Army fights and how the Yellow Turban Army responds. I think they are evenly matched. The key to victory or defeat is Whoever has more backhands, but God is not kind to him, the wind is blowing, it seems that Dong Zhuo is going to starve!" Cheng Feng said with a smile.

"Ah! Brother, it should be no problem. After all, most of the food and grass have been transported away. Besides, the food and grass given to him last time was enough for him to eat for a while. I think it should be enough to sustain him for this battle this time. Yue!" Zhao Yun had a different understanding. After all, if fifty or sixty thousand people died in this battle, wouldn't there be fewer people to eat?

"Haha, Zilong, do you think Zhang Liang is celebrating the New Year? I'm sure Dong Zhuo's camp has been targeted by Zhang Liang by this time. As long as there is a chance, Zhang Liang will not let it go. Also, until now So far, Zhang Jue has not been seen in action. This is also a big hidden danger!" Cheng Feng was a little worried. After all, it was recorded in the solitary book that Zhang Jue had elite soldiers who never revealed the time. He went to battle at the last moment and fought against the three heroes of the late Han Dynasty. , if Zhang Jue had not died of illness in the end and Zhang Bao and the others could not command, they might have changed history!

"Yeah! That makes sense. Brother, should we inform Dong Zhuo? After all, these are nominally friendly forces." Zhao Yun still couldn't bear it.

"No need, General Dong Zhuo has experienced hundreds of battles and is surrounded by many advisers. How could he not understand this little trick? We don't want to do whatever we do! You all listen to me. I'll charge you with me once a while to get more war horses. Come back! This thing is a treasure!" As he spoke, Cheng Feng suddenly changed the topic and gave instructions to the soldiers behind him. Zhao Yun almost choked and almost fell off his horse. He was still analyzing clearly just now, how he turned around. So urgent!

"Let's fight. It's good to consume each other for a while. Let's watch the show first and wait until we've seen enough before we act. Tiangang, go and inform Mr. Guo and say that Zilong and I are going to have a big game!" Cheng Feng said with a smile,

"Yes, lord!" Although he didn't understand what Cheng Feng meant, Wu Tiangang was still meticulous in executing his orders.

Not long after, Hua Xiong and Zhang Niujiao met. The two fought all the way without encountering many powerful opponents. When the two met, they were extremely jealous. Hua Xiong wanted to repel the Yellow Turban Army before Dong Zhuo came. Zhang Niu Jiao wanted to show off in front of Zhang Bao, and both of them held back their strength. Now they collided with each other. The two fought with swords and guns for dozens of rounds, but they couldn't tell the winner, but they were hacked to death. Many soldiers! Hua Xiong saw that if he continued to fight, the gains would outweigh the losses. Guo Si had been charging back and forth with his cavalry like crazy. Zhang Ji was struggling to resist. He couldn't get entangled with this guy, otherwise he would lose his food and grass! Thinking of this, Hua Xiong swung his sword, turned his horse's head and killed the army back, no longer fighting Zhang Niujiao. At this time, Zhang Niujiao also received Zhang Bao's order to quickly burn the food and grass, so he took the lead in killing Zhang Ji. . The two armies were entangled and fighting fiercely. At this moment, Dong Zhuo came from behind with his army. Dong Zhuo became smarter this time and did not come directly on the road. Instead, he made a big circle and came behind Zhang Bao. Launching an attack, the situation intensified immediately. Zhang Bao was originally sitting high in the sky, watching the storm with a smile, but now it was better. With Dong Zhuo's move, he changed from a director to an actor. Zhang Bao quickly divided his troops to resist, waved the blue flag, and 50,000 elite soldiers came out from the right, surrounding Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo was so angry that he shouted, "Hey, fight with me, I can only use men." I can wear you to death." Zhang Bao muttered. He still had 50,000 elite soldiers in his hands. It seems that he can't burn the food and grass, otherwise Dong Zhuo would have free hands to deal with him. Only by pretending to attack the food truck can he Attracting a large number of Dong Zhuo's Xiliang troops, as long as the cavalry does not charge, they are lambs to be slaughtered!

"Attack me, hurry up, kill them all!" Guo Bin kept shouting while holding a big sword. Although the number of people following him continued to decrease, he also contained a large number of Yellow Turban troops, and he was able to lead countless troops every time. A few people disrupted Zhang Bao's formation and layout, which could also cause damage. Zhang Bao's teeth were itching to see Zhang Niujiao. Zhang Niujiao went around in a circle and was caught by Hua Xiong. In order to prevent Zhang Niujiao from setting fire to the food, Hua Xiong I also tried my best to entangle him.

"Kill!" Dong Zhuo's camp was empty. Zhang Liang and his men suddenly came to kill, which really surprised Li Ru. No one expected that Zhang Bao would have so many elite soldiers. Even Li Ru could not imagine that under all of them, In my impression, the combat power of the Yellow Turban Army did not exceed five, but he did not expect that Zhang Liang led too many people. Li Ru originally thought that leaving 20,000 soldiers would be enough. Unfortunately, the cavalry was not suitable for guarding the camp. Fortunately, the food and grass were transported away in advance. A group was hidden, otherwise the losses would be heavy again today. Zhang Liang did not hesitate this time. He brought three thousand elite soldiers given by Zhang Bao. They were extremely brave. They were like broken bamboos along the way, killing Xiliang soldiers who were thrown off their backs. , "Master Li, retreat quickly. Our cavalry really can't hold the camp. If they fight outside, I can kill them!" Li Jue said

"In this case, I will give you half of the troops. You go to disrupt the enemy troops outside the camp and capture the thieves first. Capture the king first. If you lead people directly to kill Zhang Liang, the camp can be saved!" Li Ru said quickly, as long as the camp can be saved! , the Xiliang army will not be in chaos. If you are lucky enough to kill Zhang Liang, you can turn defeat into victory! After all, although there were many people coming, the leading thousands of people were more brave. Once the offensive slowed down, the gap was obvious. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Jue led about 10,000 cavalry and went directly out of the camp to kill Zhang Liang. , that posture looked like Jing Ke stabbing the King of Qin. Zhang Liang was frightened by the killing sound. When he saw a group of cavalry pouring out of the camp and heading straight for him, the Yellow Turban troops blocking the road scattered and fled. Zhang Liang almost He yelled, "Come back here and set a fire quickly. Leave me alone and set a fire quickly!" Although Zhang Liang shouted loudly, it was of no use. He could only clap his horse forward and lead his own soldiers to meet the enemy. While still shouting as they walked, many soldiers approached the camp, destroying and setting fires everywhere. In the end, no matter where they were, everyone with tinder was setting fires. After a while, the smoke was billowing so thick that they choked their eyes to tears, and many people were coughing. Get up!

"Fight with me, don't let the cavalry charge, otherwise you will die faster!" Zhang Liang shouted, and took the lead to fight with Li Jue. Under the leadership of Zhang Liang, more and more Yellow Turban troops fought with the Xiliang Army Together, Li Jue led the team, leaping on his horse and wielding his sword, killing the Yellow Turban Army crying to heaven and earth. Although they killed a lot, as time went by, Zhang Liang was stunned to use his life to hold back Li Jue's horse hooves! "Haha, kill!" Zhang Liang swung his sword and hacked to death several Xiliang troops. The Yellow Turban troops behind him quickly mounted their horses and rode to attack again. After a while of fighting, the number of both sides was reduced, but Zhang The number of cavalry under Liang's subordinates is increasing unknowingly!

"General, this won't work!" Li Ru said to Li Jue, who had charged several times. Although the fireworks did not burn down the camp, they could easily be misunderstood. If Dong Zhuo's army saw it from a distance, they would think that the camp was destroyed. , that would be great fun! "General Li, I don't think you need to defend the camp with all your strength. I will only leave five thousand crossbowmen. You can take the rest out and attack Zhang Liang from different directions. Let's see how long he can hold on!" Li Ru said to Li Jue, who had just returned from the charge, said, and at the same time glanced hatefully at Zhang Liang, who was rising to kill, he really didn't expect the Yellow Turban Army to be so brave today!

"Okay, let's do it. I'll leave this camp to you. You all come with me, I will trample them to pieces!" Li Jue shouted, leading the cavalry to charge again. Zhang Liang's men After enduring ruthless torture, every sound of horse hoofs hitting the ground hit their hearts hard. As the uniform sound of horse hoofs got closer and closer, many people began to retreat. After a period of fighting, they now had to face these cavalrymen again. , everyone has some fear in their hearts.

"Hold on, have you seen it? I killed them just now, and I can still kill them now!" Zhang Liang held a knife in his hand, encouraging morale while quickly gathering the soldiers. Even though he said this, it was still very stressful to charge against them. . After all, these are just a mob, and being able to repel several attacks depends on morale and numbers. If they can't hold it back for a while, it will be the end of them!

"Kill!" Li Jue really tried his best this time, the sword was shining with cold light, and every time he swung it, he would take away a few heads. This time, Li Jue stopped rushing randomly and took the lead to charge towards Zhang Liang; at the same time, he ordered those around him The cavalry dispersed and killed the ordinary soldiers separately, without giving them a chance to gather. After a while, the power of the cavalry was brought into play, killing the Yellow Turban Army. Zhang Liang saw that the defeat was complete. Dong Zhuo's camp was After being saved, they set fires everywhere in the area to create chaos, and then slowly retreated with the Yellow Turban Army. Li Ru and Li Ru did not dare to pursue him for fear of an ambush! Zhang Liang followed Zhang Bao's instructions and withdrew to the Yellow Turban Army's necessary road and laid an ambush!

"General, look, there is smoke in the direction of Dong Zhuo's camp. It seems that General Renggong has successfully attacked the camp!" The soldiers beside Zhang Bao suddenly said. Zhang Bao quickly followed the gesture and saw that it was indeed thick smoke. "Haha, shout to me, Dong Zhuo's camp is on fire!" There were shouts everywhere for a while, and Dong Zhuo's army was confused. Many soldiers turned back to look at the camp. Seeing this situation, it means that the camp was attacked by a sneak attack. Well, the morale was obviously low. No matter how hard Dong Zhuo and the others restrained and scolded them, it was useless. Zhang Bao took the opportunity to kill many more people. At the same time, Zhang Niujiao was ordered to really burn the grain and grass this time. As long as the grain and grass are burned again, Dong Zhuo will be useless! "Kill, set fire, burn grain and grass!" Everyone rushed forward to kill. The Xiliang army was retreating steadily. If the cavalry had not been dominant, they would have fled. Dong Zhuo was worried about the situation in the camp and was about to go back to rescue, but was stopped by Zhang. Ji advised, "My lord, if the camp is lost, it will be too late to go back now. If the food and grass here are burned again, then we will really have no food, so the most important thing now is to protect this food and grass!" Zhang Ji's words were like an enlightenment that woke up Dong Zhuo, but now everyone was confused and how could they think so much. Dong Zhuo took the lead and shouted, "Protect the food and grass, or everyone will starve to death!" Although it didn't sound very nice, it was indeed the most effective. As more and more people shouted, the Xiliang army gradually became quiet. Everyone secretly swore in their hearts that they must protect the last food and grass!

"Brother, when are we going to take action?" After watching for a long time, the two sides were fighting vigorously. Zhao Yun kept rubbing his hands and was so excited. Seeing that the two sides were in a confrontation again, he couldn't help but ask. Feng Dao, and at the same time muttered in his heart, this big brother is too calm. There are hundreds of thousands of people on both sides, and they have been killing here for most of the day. Fortunately, you have been here to watch the show for half a day.

However, Cheng Feng did not answer Zhao Yun's question. Instead, he asked, "Zilong, if you encounter such a situation, what would you do?" Zhao Yun was stunned by this question. He really hadn't thought about it. Looking at this Protecting food and grass is the most reasonable way in the situation. Of course, the more effective way is to kill the enemy troops. After thinking about it, Zhao Yundao said, "The advantage of cavalry lies in its speed. It cannot be stopped and hindered. If it were me, I would keep 30,000 elite soldiers as infantry." Use it to guard the food supply, and then use it to set the thirty thousand war horses on fire, and then I will lead the elite cavalry to cover them up!"

Cheng Feng was overjoyed and said with a smile, "Haha, the fire horse stratagem, wonderful plan, wonderful plan! The ancients had the fire ox stratagem, Zilong dared to use the fire horse stratagem, high! It's really high! It seems that Zilong's recent research on the art of war has yielded results. ah!"

Zhao Yun was a little embarrassed, because he felt that as a defensive side, it would be a waste to use cavalry. It is better to use war horses, which can not only kill the enemy but also stimulate the soldiers. After all, every cavalry has feelings for the war horses. Think about your partners. How exciting it would be to die to save yourself. "Then what will you do, brother?" Zhao Yun asked back

"Absolutely, but I will burn some of the food and grass to improve morale, put him to death and survive, then attack Zhang Bao with all my strength, use the advantage of the cavalry to eliminate them in stages. Of course, this method is not as easy as yours, you can use two Use them together!" Cheng Feng said

"Brother, should we take action now?"

"Wait a minute, Dong Zhuo hasn't come to ask for help yet? After all, he can also see that we are being watched closely by this black-armored army. How can we do it easily!" Although Cheng Feng said it seriously, he could still hear it. Zhao Yun was speechless for a while, this is not letting go of hawks when they see rabbits; poor Dong Zhuo, it seems that you are going to be taken advantage of again, but I don’t know how many war horses will be fooled this time. After all, except for war horses, my eldest brother will not watch. On to something else!
