Chapter 090 The two armies confront each other and recruit Zhang Liao?
"Build a circular formation~~~"
The sound is like a bell, and the sound is like thunder.
Zhang Zhen shouted loudly, then raised the Huanshou sword in his hand and picked up the fine iron shield in his hand.
All soldiers in the battalion are already familiar with this set of instructions.
They moved quickly, with Zhang Zhen as the center of the shield, and arranged tightly in an arc shape toward the left and right sides. Zhang Liao led the crossbowmen to rush to the center, and the sword and shield soldiers on both sides immediately protected them.
It seemed like it was just a blink of an eye.
At the gate of the camp, a huge circular formation appeared in an instant. Raging flames swept in from all directions, hitting the shield like a wave, but it collapsed like a mountain.
"What a risk!"
In the formation, Zhang Liao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He was glad that he had taken precautions, otherwise this wave of fire attack, even if it could not kill too many soldiers, would instantly cause chaos in their positions and cause them to lose their ability to control the field.
As the commander-in-chief of the three armies, once he loses the ability to control the field, he will be no different from the powerful and powerful soldiers. If the opponent launches a fierce attack next, there will be only a dead end waiting for him.
really!
At the moment when the circular formation was first formed.
A large number of rangers poured out from all around, each holding a strong crossbow, and each cold crossbow arrow passed through the raging fire, clanging against the shield, and then fell into the sea of fire.
Although he was spared from disaster, Zhang Liao, who was sitting on his horse in the formation, could see it very clearly. The crossbow arrows were wrapped in oilcloth. The moment the oilcloth passed through the flames, they turned into bolides roaring towards them.
Too cruel!
Zhang Liao was greatly shocked.
If the opponent's commander succeeds in this series of operations, no matter how many soldiers and horses he has, they will fall apart in an instant and become meat and potatoes on the chopping board, thus sealing the victory in advance.
At the same time, Zhang Liao was even more curious as to who King Hongnong had the help to come up with such a terrifying tactic in such a short period of time.
*****
"Brothers, charge!"
"Kill the Xiliang dog thief!"
"Kill with me~~~"
"..."
The shouts of killing shook the sky and the earth.
Crowds of rangers surged from all directions, surrounding the camp full of fire.
Liu Bian carried a long sword and ran at full speed, looking towards the camp.
But see...
A huge circular formation stood like a bunker in the sea of fire, and the cold spears kept thrusting back and forth. In the tactical deduction, the scene of the rangers chopping melons and vegetables did not appear. Instead, they were forced to attack by the spears thrusting back and forth.
Can't get close.
"Master Bian, please give the order to stop the attack."
The Alliance of Military Advisors saw that the situation was unexpected and did not care so much. They hurriedly reminded: "Zhang Liao was prepared and could set up a circular formation in such a short period of time. He is truly a famous general in history."
"Stop attacking!"
"Stop attacking!"
Liu Bian shouted at the top of his lungs.
He really couldn't believe that in such a short period of time, Zhang Liao actually set up a circular formation to block all the roaring flames.
Is it possible...
Is this the skill of a famous historical general?
However, such a reaction speed is too terrifying.
Fortunately, the rangers didn't have time to attack, otherwise they would be the ones killed at this moment.
Deng Zhan also realized that something was wrong. He snarled his steel teeth and waved to his disciples: "Stop the attack! Stop the attack! The opponent has been prepared for a long time. Stop the attack!"
Shi A, who was about to lead his troops into a sudden attack, knocked away the thrusting spear with his sword, then stopped and waved his hand: "Stop attacking, retreat slowly, and stay alert!"
Hula~~~
The knights on the periphery retreated one after another, keeping some distance from Zhang Liao's troops, charging forward with their long swords, and remaining vigilant.
At this moment, without the help of the unextinguished flames, they would not even be able to surround the opponent's army.
Liu Bian stepped out of the team, raised his eyes to look at Zhang Liao in the sea of fire, and asked eagerly: "Teacher, what should we do now? Should we escape into the mountains and forests? This fire should be able to drag on for a while."
"It's too late."
The military advisor alliance hurriedly interrupted: "Withdraw your troops now, I'm afraid Li Fang will pursue you desperately. After all, he has a reason to arrest you. He can ignore anyone's life and only pursue you."
"That's right."
Liu Bian's heart was pounding.
For Li Fang, it doesn't matter how many rangers die, as long as he can catch himself, he is done.
For the ranger, escaping into the forest has a high chance of escaping, but for him, it is almost a certain death situation. Now escaping into the forest is equivalent to letting Zhang Liao chase and kill him, which is not worth the gain.
"Then what should we do? We can't just sit back and wait for death, right?"
"Master Bian, don't you want to recruit Zhang Liao? Now the opportunity has come, deliberately poking his sore spots and emphasizing his current embarrassing situation. This may have a miraculous effect!"
"ah?"
Liu Bian was stunned: "Is this possible?"
The Alliance of Military Advisors replied: "It's okay. A dead horse is a living doctor. Negotiation psychology experts will help you. As long as Zhang Liao is dissatisfied with the current situation, our probability of victory is still quite high."
"good!"
Liu Bian nodded slowly: "I'll try."
The two armies confront each other.
Liu Bian took a step forward and shouted loudly: "Is this Zhang Liao, the late general's subordinate, in the formation? Gu is Hongnong Wang Bian. I wonder if the general still remembers Gu?"
Your Highness?
Zhang Liao, who was in the sea of fire, was suddenly startled, and raised his eyes to look at the enemy formation. Although his vision was a little blurry, judging from the outline, Liu Bian was standing alone at this moment, holding a long sword.
really!
King Hongnong was free and was definitely not kidnapped as Li Fang said. His guess was correct.
Zhang Liao breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Li Fang not far away, anger igniting from the bottom of his heart.
Xiliang offal is indeed vicious!
"Why don't you remember?"
Zhang Liao raised his head and responded loudly: "Actually, before Your Highness came out of seclusion, the general felt that Your Highness was familiar, but he didn't expect that His Highness's appearance is similar to that of a cavalry general, but quite different from that of a general."
"Very valuable."
Liu Bian nodded with great interest: "A late general can still be remembered by the general. I am here to thank General Zhang for my uncle."
"But......"
At this point, Liu Bian suddenly changed his subject and exhaled: "Today the general brought his troops here. Is it to kill the traitor on behalf of the traitor and eliminate future troubles?"
"If that's the case, just take the head of the general. Maybe the traitor will reward you for it, and then he will respect the general like his uncle. From then on, it is not impossible to rise to the top, become a high-ranking official, and even become a marquis. It is not impossible.
.”
At this moment, Li Fang's voice sounded in the formation: "Captain Zhang, actually King Hongnong is right. As long as you can catch him, I, Li Fang, can recommend him to high-ranking officials, be generously paid, and become generals and marquises.
It's as easy as flipping a finger."
perhaps......
Li Fang also knew that he could no longer hide it, so he simply showed his hand: "I tell you the truth, King Hongnong escaped from the palace, which made the Prime Minister very unhappy, and said that he would capture Luoyang at all costs."
"What if you can do this?"
Li Fang glanced at Zhang Liao, and his voice was full of temptation: "From now on, even the tiger Lu Bu will not dare to underestimate you. Soldiers, horses, money, food, equipment, whatever you want, you will have it. This gang under you Brothers can also follow you and enjoy the good life."
