Chapter 808: The Sharp Blade (1)

Putting aside the reputation of the benevolent lord, Liu Bei himself was a recognized famous general in troubled times.

He was born in the Youyan border area and had a strong and brave personality. He started from the lowest recruiting leader. Over the past decades, his battle footprints spread across the seven states of You, Qing, Xu, Yu, Jing, Yi and Liang. He was familiar with cavalry, infantry, water battles, and direct attacks, side attacks, surprise attacks, and deceitful defeats. He was all respectful and feared by the heroes of the world, such as Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Lu Bu, Gongsun Zan, Liu Biao, and Sun Quan.

At that time, he was in poverty and defected to Cao Cao. His generals were not as strong as Guan Zhang, and his soldiers were less than a thousand soldiers. Cao Cao immediately expressed his respect as the left general. The more he was more respectful, he would be the same carriage when he went out and the same seat when he sat. Is this just for the reputation of Liu Bei treating the people well? No. Cao Cao himself was a great expert in military use. He knew very well that Liu Bei's military talents were outstanding, far beyond the heroes and could almost be compared with him!

Unlike Cao Cao, who had a reputation and team before the troubled times, Liu Bei became humble and fought repeatedly, and his power was dispersed many times. Therefore, he often went to the front line and participated in battles with his soldiers. He liked to personally perform the most dangerous and critical tasks, dared to take risks, and boldly use troops. Many of the generals under Cao Cao had suffered great losses at the hands of Liu Bei.

Even though the veteran Liu Bei has become the King of Hanzhong who ruled tens of millions of soldiers and civilians, he still took the battle himself at the critical moment!

At this time, all Liu Bei's army was braver. Thinking of the daily kindness of King Hanzhong, who was able to kill the enemy side by side with King Hanzhong, made the soldiers cheer and exhausted as if they had disappeared. Many soldiers who were not in this counterattack sequence also flocked forward.

They were like sharp blades, tearing open the overlapping array of Cao's army and heading straight to the central army where Cao Cao was. In this process, Liu Bei's army was like a huge wave, and it was unstoppable!

Cao's army gradually reacted and gathered from all sides to block the attack.

Both sides had the awareness of dying if they could not win, and the shouts of killing sounded throughout the night sky. The warriors who were standing in front of both sides had all the swords and guns in their hands were dyed bright red, and the ground they stepped on became slippery and muddy because of too much blood.

In this tragic death fight that was beyond imagination, except for some generals who were covered by elite entourages and able to advance and retreat in time, every soldier who stood in front died for a moment. Their lodged corpses became the support for their companions behind them, and even the soldiers of Liu Bei's army pushed the bodies of their dead comrades as cover and moved forward desperately.

Liu Bei frowned.

Somewhere a ravine flew over, shouting from both sides: "Be careful!"

Liu Bei reacted quickly. He drew his sword and slashed it diagonally, and with a "clang" sound, he swung it away.

Although the front line continued to push forward, he noticed that more and more Cao's troops were blocking, and their formation was also stricter and more strict. The subsequent troops continued to support Cao Cao's command.

Just within his sight, dozens of Cao's army commanded soldiers to hold up their flags and shouted loudly along the way: "Those who retreated will be killed! Those who abandoned the formation will be killed! Those who are afraid of fighting will be killed! Those who are not in the front will be killed!"

Under the threat of the fierce military law, Cao's army fought bravely. They had already stabilized their positions, but because the defeated soldiers in front retreated, they could not reverse their disadvantages for a while.

He also felt that the soldiers were quickly consuming Yu Yong, which was aroused by the King of Hanzhong's personal attack.

After all, the soldiers' fatigue reached their limits. Even Wei Yan's troops experienced fierce battles in the morning, then ran away and returned to the battlefield at full speed, without any rest. After Wei Yan's continuous conflicts with the enemy's formation several times, he was somewhat unable to continue. When the soldiers' bravery dissipated, their offensive would inevitably be unable to maintain.

It's still a little bit! Unfortunately, it's only a little bit!

Liu Bei stared at the Wei Gonggu standing in front of him, with a solemn face, but almost a scorching light came out in his eyes. He had fought with Cao Cao for decades, and the real battles face to face on the battlefield only happened three times. There were two in Xuzhou and once in Runan.

All three times, Liu Bei lost. Although every failure has a reason for every failure, losing is losing. Every time he loses, he loses quickly and has no power to resist.

This time, Liu Bei wants to win!

He murmured: "Meng De is a hero after all, and he does not retreat. Judging from his appearance, he can still hold on."

Zhao Yun said: "If Cao Gong's command moves, I'm afraid that the entire army will collapse in an instant. King, I guess he insists on this, both to wait for darkness and to wait for reinforcements in the rear."

This is inevitable, and Liu Bei nodded slightly. The Cao army's strength far exceeds that of Liu Bei's troops. From west of Tongguan along the Wei River, they set up at least nine military camps stationed with more than 5,000 people, and stationed at least 30,000 troops around Xinfeng. Today, the two armies did not promptly reinforce the war. If the Cao army in the rear did not quickly reinforce, would they wait for Wei Gong to behead them one by one?

Only when you can have reinforcements, Cao Cao will have reinforcements. And once you arrive, there will be a large number of tens of thousands of people, enough to immediately stop your offensive.

He chuckled softly: "Meng De is worthy of being Meng De."

After admiring, he suddenly remembered something and turned to Zhao Yun: "By the way, I forgot that Zilong had never seen Cao Cao."

He pointed with a long sword and said, "Look at the bottom of the cap, in front of Xu Chu, the man holding a spear, with a long red beard and a very fat belly, is Cao Cao!"

Zhao Yun has indeed never met Cao Cao.

When Liu Bei fought against Cao's army twice in Xuzhou, Zhao Yun was still under Gongsun Zan's command; later when Liu Bei arrived at Cao's army in Runan, Zhao Yun was responsible for protecting Liu Bei's camp first to retreat.

But on the battlefield where thousands of troops were surrounded by many tiger soldiers with distinctive armor, there were also many powerful generals like Xu Chu, behind him. Even if Zhao Yun had never seen it, he could guess that this must be Cao Cao. In fact, there was no need for Liu Bei to point it out specifically.

So Zhao Yun understood what Liu Bei meant.

This idea made him eager to try, and his blood seemed to be boiling. Although he was steady by nature, as a warrior, how could he refuse to kill the generals and snatch the flag on the battlefield that is highly anticipated and win the victory for the Lord King?

He slowly said: "The situation on the battlefield changes rapidly, and the opportunity will not come again."

Liu Bei agreed: "There are still hundreds of Bai Li soldiers here, and you will take them all!"

"No need." Zhao Yun said: "Uncle is going to lead the troops, and the king cannot be without a guard. Let Yang Qun lead fifty people to stay. I will take fifty people there, and it will be enough."

Liu Bei hesitated for a moment and made a decision: "Okay!"

He stared at Zhao Yun, suddenly reached out and grabbed Zhao Yun's arm hard: "Jilong just let go of the fight, I will respond in time."

Zhao Yun smiled and nodded: "I dare to ask the king to agree to me."

Liu Bei said in a deep voice: "Just say it!"

"Yide is still resting behind me. If you know that I will only achieve great achievements but don't call him, you will be furious and will most likely come to my house to fight and retaliate. At that time, please ask the king to mediate for me."

Liu Bei laughed.

Amid his laughter, Zhao Yun raised his hand and signaled that Bai Li's troops behind him divided up fifty cavalry and followed closely. These fifty cavalry and Zhao Yun were the last assault force that Liu Bei could use on the battlefield where tens of thousands of people fought.

The next moment, Zhao Yun shouted and galloped!

This time, Liu Bei's army advanced in a straight line with a small number of troops, facing Cao Cao's command base. Because there were not many troops used, in order to ensure the arrangement of ladder attacks, the horizontal wide width at the front of the assault team was only thirty or fifty steps.

Zhao Yun and fifty elite cavalry drew a right-right arc on the battlefield, and bypassed the small area where the two armies fought fiercely and entered the gaps. In this direction, a team of Cao's swords and shields rushed to cover them. They successively erected shields, intending to suppress Liu Bei's army's range of activities from the side.

Before he stood firm, Zhao Yun arrived.

His horse was extremely fast, and he walked through the shield formation without stopping. The sword and shield hands who dared to come forward to meet the enemy saw that the gun in his palm buzzed into a ball of silver light, and then turned into pieces of silver light to sprinkle. This kind of shooting technique was almost the best, so howlings could not resist it. Only then could the soldiers of the Cao army hear the sound of tragic sounds one after another, and in an instant, Zhao Yun stabbed dozens of people and passed through the formation.

Behind the shield formation, there was a whole team of cavalry. They found that the formation of the front swordsman's shield hands suddenly became in chaos, and hurriedly urged the horse to come and see. The cavalry line was at the front, with a long-handled axe on both hands, roaring like thunder and powerful.

Zhao Yun had no intention of fighting with him? He rode his horse forward, and when he was still dozens of steps away, he suddenly put down his spear and shot it in succession. At the critical moment of the bowstring, many arrows were successively in the air, like a silver line, all hitting the target. The face of the general Cao fell down, and the followers around him fell down.

The war horses galloped constantly, and in the blink of an eye, they passed through the Cao army's cavalry, crossed a narrow open space, and then crashed into a clanging army of soldiers.

Infantry, cavalry, and infantry are arranged in an interlaced array. This is the defensive party's practice of fully leveraging its military advantages and weakening the attacking party's agility layer by layer. It is obvious that with the sudden reduction of Xuandegong's trap this time, Cao's army's front is rapidly reorganizing.

Zhao Yun's moves were brisk, and his gun was like a dragon. A little silver light at the tip of the blade suddenly came and went, flying all over the sky, stabbing the enemies who dared to stand in front one by one.

When he rode his horse again, he began to breathe rapidly.

This kind of unstoppable assault depends on instantly erupting physical strength and skills to the limit. Those who can achieve this level are all enemies who have used their personal courage to turn the situation around. Including the flying general Lu Bu of that year, there are only a few people in the world.

However, such an outbreak consumes people extremely severely. After all, Zhao Yun had been fighting all day long, and it is inevitable that he will not be able to continue his strength at this time. But he knew more that the opportunity was fleeting, and as long as thousands of enemy troops reacted, even if they stepped on them with their feet, it would be enough to step on their fifty riders into meat paste.
