Chapter 35 Confrontation

"Lord, the Xiliang army is rushing towards our army." Near Ao Cang, Yuan Shu was about to bring food and grass to meet with the princes at Hulao Pass. When he was discussing the break of the pass, he saw the general Yu She coming over and saying to Yuan Shu.

"Oh?" Yuan Shu had already gotten on the horse and frowned and asked, "Have you ever seen clearly who is the banner?"

"It was Hua Xiong, a general of Xiliang. According to the remnants of Jiangdong, the last time people gathered in Yang, this person had killed Zu Mao, a general under Sun Jian, in the siege." Yu She bowed and said.

"How is it better than you?" Yuan Shu's face turned a little dark when he heard Sun Jian's name. He was originally a general under his command, but after Sun Jian's son and Huang Gai ran back, they found Yuan Shao. This made Yuan Shu feel very angry. In addition, he looked down on the people under Sun Jian's command. He died if he died. If he died well, he must be a waste. Otherwise, how could he be hacked and killed by the other party while surrounding him?

"This... General Sun's four generals Huang, Cheng, Han, and Zu are not Yi." Yu She thought for a while and said, after all, he had never really fought, so it was hard to compare. However, as a general under Yuan Shu, he was at the same level as Sun Jian. If Yuan Shu felt that he was not even as good as Sun Jian's men, then what else could he do? So he only said that the four people were powerful, but he didn't say that he was inferior to himself.

"Not Yi and others?" Yuan Shu sneered when he heard this: "They gained the upper hand, but one Lu Bu killed four people in a row. Even Sun Jian was unable to come back alive. Huang Gai didn't know that he was loyal to death. It was useless. How could they compare to you? Let's bring the head of Huaxiong and make a name for himself in front of the princes."

"This...here!" Yu She was a little helpless. Yuan Shu was indeed talented and had a prominent family background, but he always looked so arrogant that he felt uncomfortable. Now he was even more capable than the other party, so he wanted to ask himself to raise the head... Yu She could only agree. What if he didn't agree? Tell Yuan Shu that he was actually a waste who was not as good as the four generals under Sun Jian? Yu She finally climbed the big tree of the Yuan family, how could he destroy his future? And he might not lose. He shouted and took his soldiers toward Huaxiong.

On the other hand, after Hua Xiong left the pass, he did not go to Xingyang, but went to Aocang, Aocang and Chenggao, Xingyang was originally standing in a tripod to protect the horns, but unfortunately Xingyang and Aocang were abandoned one after another, leaving only Chenggao to block the coalition forces. According to Lu Bu's previous discussion with the generals, if Aocang could get one of them in Xingyang, he would be able to clamp the coalition forces again.

But in Xingyang, it is probably the main force of the coalition forces. Hua Xiong only brought two thousand people, and it would be useless if he really met. It would be better to come to Ao Cang to try his luck and see if he could take the opportunity to occupy Ao Cang. Even if he could not, if he could kill all the princes, he could greatly shave the morale of the coalition forces.

While thinking, I saw a scout coming to report that there were not too many enemy troops in front of me, so I should have come straight to this side.

Not too many, nor less than Hua Xiong's men. However, without considering other factors, it was just a head-on fight... Hua Xiong felt that it was a bit bullying.

"Let's go!" After confirming that the other party was coming to this side, Hua Xiong was not vague. The total number of Chenggao to Ao Cang was only about twenty miles. Both sides were heading in opposite directions and it would not take long to meet him. Today he would have to use this battle to stabilize his position. From today on, others would not have to feel that he was not worthy of calling him General Hua.

Yu She saw smoke and dust everywhere from afar. Before the scout came back, he saw a row of arrows falling from the sky. The troops who had already walked to the scattered formation suddenly became even more chaotic.

"Line in the array to meet the enemy!" Yu She scolded and looked into the distance. In the smoke and dust, Hua Xiong had already rushed here with the Western Liang Iron Cavalry.

The ground began to tremble, and it seemed that there was only the sound of horse hooves like thunder in the world. Although the princes of Guandong had fought with the Xiliang army several times, as the Nanyang army, which had always been in charge of logistics and food, it was definitely the first time that they collided with the Xiliang army head-on. The feeling of oppression that came to the face not only made people breathe sluggish, but also seemed to have their heartbeat stopped.

Not to mention ordinary soldiers in Nanyang, even Yu She was the first time he saw such momentum, and instinctively wanted to avoid it. As the main generals, they were like this, let alone the soldiers under their command. Before the Western Liang army approached, many Nanyang army had already lost their weapons and fled, and more and more people were fleeing.

Yu She was the general after all, and soon suppressed the fear in her heart. In this state, the infantry lined up to meet the enemy may not be afraid of the cavalry, but if they ran away, they would definitely die. They would beat the horse and scold them, so that the soldiers could stick to their place and rely on dense formations to block the opponent's impact.

According to military tactics, it is extremely unwise to hedge between cavalry and infantry. As long as he can stabilize the formation, Yu She is 80% sure that the other party will bypass it, but...

Fewer and fewer people could stand still. Yu She finally sighed in despair. It was hard to say how he was better than Hua Xiong, but it was obviously unwise to expect these new tricks to fight against the battle-torn cavalry of Xiliang.

Turning his horse's head, Yu She no longer cared about these new troops who were doomed to be defeated, and the troops were defeated like a mountain. In this case, Han Xin might have no choice but to run away. With one man's strength, it is difficult to turn the situation around.

"Prison, where can I run?" Hua Xiong looked at the military formation that had been sparse before the battle was fought. He knew that the battle had been won. Seeing Yu She turn her head and run, he naturally didn't want him to run away. He immediately shouted, clamped his legs and rushed towards Yu She.

Yu She felt that his soul was rising and urged his horse to flee. The Nanyang Army, which had no fighting spirit, saw that all the commanders of his family had run away, and they all threw down their weapons and wanted to escape. However, at this time, facing the cavalry that had already charged completely, turned around and ran away. The other party didn't even use a knife and ran wildly, which would allow these Nanyang Army, who had lost fighting spirit, to be crushed into meat mud in the dense horse's hooves!

Yu She ran wildly. After a moment, he saw Yuan Shu preparing to join the princes. Suddenly, he saw dust flying here. Yu She ran back in a panic. Liu Xun, who was following Yuan Shu, was shocked to see this: "It was the Western Liang army. Yu She was defeated. The soldiers followed the orders and lined up to meet the enemy!"

Hua Xiong had already chased behind Yu She. Seeing a large number of Nanyang troops appearing in front of him, he clamped the horse's belly hard. The already very fast horse suddenly accelerated and rushed to Yu She's horse in an instant. Hua Xiong raised his sword and knocked Yu She down with one knife. Then he tied the horse and raised the big sword high. The Xiliang cavalry running from behind began to slow down slowly, and just stopped when he reached behind Hua Xiong.
