Chapter 378: The First Battle with the Xiliang Army
"Xi, Xiliang Army!" Although Wang Xian has never been in contact with the Xiliang Army, it does not mean that he cannot recognize that the army in front of him is the Xiliang Army, which is said to be the most powerful soldier in the world. Wang Xian
He has always been bold, but this time he was so scared that his face turned blue and he was almost speechless. "Why, why did the Xiliang Army appear here?"
Seeing that the city gate had been closed, the Xiliang army outside the city did not continue to advance. Instead, they stopped just outside the shooting range of the archers defending the city. This control was absolutely perfect and worthy of the title.
The title of the strongest soldier in the world! Even if the Xiliang army stayed there, the murderous aura emanating from the military formation made the defenders on the city tremble with fear. Several archers even connected their hands
He couldn't hold his long bow steady, and several arrows fell directly from his hand, falling lightly to the ground, which made the eyes of the Xiliang army officers outside the city full of ridicule!
"What's going on? Wang Xian! What happened!" At this time, Yan Yan and Lingbao also rushed to the top of the city with a large number of soldiers and horses. As soon as Yan Yan reached the top of the city, he shouted to Wang Xian. Before
Yan Yan was frustrated under Jia Long and his status was not as high as that of Wang Xian. But now under Luo Yang, Luo Yang would certainly not miss this veteran who is as famous as Huang Zhong. This time, Yan Yan was appointed as the head coach stationed in Xingyang.
, so Yan Yan no longer needs to be polite when speaking to Wang Xian!
Normally, Wang Xian would have been angry because of this, but the current situation made Wang Xian no longer in the mood to care about that. He turned to look at Yan Yan and Lingbao, pointed outside the city and said: "
General Yan! General Ling! You came just in time! The Xiliang Army unexpectedly appeared outside the city! What on earth is going on?"
"What? Xiliang Army?" Hearing Wang Xian's words, Yan Yan and Lingbao were also shocked! Before, they had also considered that Cao's army in Sizhou might be desperate to attack Xingyang, but Cao's army did not have many troops in Sizhou.
, there is no need to worry about how much trouble these Cao troops will cause. As for Dong Zhuo west of Hangu Pass, he has never considered it. With Sizhou as a buffer area, it should be impossible for Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army to arrive here silently.
That’s right!
Yan Yan and Lingbao also ran to Wang Xian with disbelief on their faces and stretched their heads to look outside the city. But when they saw the Xiliang army outside the city, they had to believe Wang Xian's words. It was indeed true.
The Xiliang Army is coming! Seeing the momentum of the Xiliang Army, Lingbao was as shocked as Wang Xian, but Yan Yan was much more courageous than the two of them. He was silent for a moment, gritted his teeth, and hummed:
"I'll go out to test it first! You must guard the city gate! Don't leave the city easily to fight!"
"Yan, General Yan! No!" Upon hearing Yan Yan's words, Lingbao quickly stopped him. He always boasted of being brave, but in front of the Xiliang army, his whole body trembled. He knew that Yan Yan was more capable.
For myself and Wang Xian, Yan Yan is at the top of the city, which is a guarantee for Xingyang City! If Yan Yan goes out to fight and loses his life, Xingyang City will definitely not be able to stop the Xiliang army!
However, Yan Yan glanced at Lingbao with disdain. Ever since Luo Yang unified Yizhou, Lingbao's identity as the spy back then was somehow exposed! As Jia Long's old subordinate, Yan Yan had no respect for a traitor like Lingbao.
, Naturally, there was a knot in his heart. Now that Lingbao actually said such cowardly words again, it made Yan Yan look down on Lingbao! Immediately, Yan Yan ignored Lingbao and directly talked about herself.
With a long-handled sword, he ran down the city gate and soon led more than a hundred soldiers and horses out of the city gate.
As soon as Yan Yan came out of the city gate, he asked his troops to set up a formation at the city gate. Then he rode forward alone and shouted to the Xiliang army in front: "I am the governor of Yizhou.
, General Yan Yan of the Ruijia Army! Do you dare to fight with me?" Yan Yan was too lazy to talk so much nonsense. After naming him, he directly invited the fight!
"Huh!" As soon as Yan Yan finished speaking, a cold snort sounded from the Xiliang Army's formation. A general in black armor was seen riding a war horse and holding a Xuanhua axe.
, walked out slowly from the Xiliang Army's formation. This man was tall, with a long face, and scars everywhere on his face. He looked extremely fierce. The general looked at Yan Yan and snorted coldly.
"How dare a nobody make noise in front of my Xiliang athletes? Let's see if I, Li Xian of Xiliang, come to capture you!" After saying that, the Xiliang general who called himself Li Xian clapped his horse forward and faced Yan Yan.
He rushed over to kill him!
Hearing Li Xian's words, Yan Yan's face also darkened. It is true that although Yan Yan's skills are great, under the command of Luo Yang, who is full of fierce generals, he is indeed not an outstanding person! But Yan Yan has been on the battlefield for so many years,
A well-known fierce general in Yizhou was now said to be worthless by the enemy! Although Yan Yan was calm, he was still a warrior after all, so how could he be so humiliated? He immediately shouted and patted his horse to face Li Xian.
Just rushed over!
The two met in the center of the two armies. Without saying a word, Li Xian held the Xuanhua ax in both hands and slashed it towards Yan Yan's head. Judging from his posture, it was clear that he wanted to chop Yan Yan into pieces with the axe.
Two halves! But how could Yan Yan let him get what he wanted? He swung the long-handled sword in his hand and cut it directly on the blade of the axe. A starlight flashed past, and the Xuanhua ax couldn't fall down.
!
The easy victory that he had expected did not come true, and Li Xian was also shocked. Li Xian's background is not small, his uncle is the famous general Li Jue in the Xiliang Army! This time the Xiliang Army
When he sent troops to Yanzhou, Li Jue finally arranged for Li Xian to march into the army. The purpose was naturally to let his nephew gain more achievements. However, Li Jue probably did not expect that Li Xian would get such a hard nut in this first battle.
!
Seeing the surprised look on Li Xian's face, Yan Yan would not show any mercy. He roared angrily and pushed the Xuanhua ax back with all his strength. At the same time, he flicked the long-handled sword in his hand towards Li Xian's left shoulder.
It fell down! The target was set on the shoulder, because the human head is the hardest, and the top of the head is round, so it is not easy to apply force, but the shoulder is an important part of a person's force. As long as this knife cuts solidly, the opponent will definitely
He has lost his combat effectiveness, and his shoulders are wider and easier to hit. This is Yan Yan's valuable experience gained from fighting on the battlefield all the time!
However, Li Xian was able to be safely arranged by Li Jue to fight for military glory on the battlefield. Naturally, he was not a loser. Although he was not a first-rate general, he was not so weak that he could be killed by Yan Yan with just one blow! Seeing Yan Yan do this
When the knife fell, Li Xian also put aside his contempt for Yan Yan. He swiped the Xuanhua ax in his hand horizontally, but it landed on the blade of the broadsword. He immediately missed Yan Yan's knife by a point. Then he
, Li Xian also shouted, and the Xuanhua ax brought a cold light and slashed diagonally towards Yan Yan's chest!
Li Xian's ax chop was extremely tricky. Yan Yan had just been defeated by Li Xian, but he could not withdraw the sword to defend himself. Seeing that the ax blade was about to fall on his chest, Yan Yan was quick to think.
When he lay on his back, the ax blade was just right against the tip of his nose!
"Ah!" Seeing Yan Yan dodge this move, all the soldiers defending the city exclaimed. They were also sweating because of Yan Yan. Wang Xian and Lingbao squeezed hard with both hands.
On the city wall, even the bones on the fists were clearly visible due to excessive exertion, which showed how nervous the two of them were! In contrast, the attitude of the Xiliang army behind Li Xian was much more indifferent.
Everyone was staring straight ahead, as if they were completely indifferent to the fight between their own generals.
After dodging the axe, Yan Yan's upper body was bounced up like a rag. He and Li Xian looked at each other, and the two of them fought together again! This time, both of them chose at the same time.
Instead of burying themselves in close combat, the light and shadow of the ax mixed with the cold light of the blade, almost covering their bodies, and they could only hear the clanging sound!
The two exchanged dozens of moves. Then, a muffled sound suddenly sounded, and the two rays of light surrounding the two people immediately dispersed. The long-handled sword in Yan Yan's hand was raised high,
Pointing diagonally upward, opposite Yan Yan, Li Xian was holding a Xuanhua ax in one hand and pointing to the ground, with his arms spread wide, and there was a stab wound across his chest and abdomen on his chest.
Blood is also constantly spraying out!
Obviously, Li Xian's skills are good, but compared to Yan Yan, he is still inferior. So Li Xian can support Yan Yan for so long, which is already very good! Yan Yan just spotted an opening in Li Xian's hand.
, he first knocked away Li Xian's big ax with one strike, and then struck again with his backhand, and this was the result!
After taking Yan Yan's knife, Li Xian's face was suddenly full of panic, but no matter how much he regretted it, he could not restore his defeat! The sword held high in Yan Yan's hand suddenly fell down,
Without giving Li Xian a chance to breathe, the knife fell directly on Li Xian's neck, and immediately cut off a good man's head. Li Xian's head flew into the air, but slid for five seconds.
Six steps away, he fell to the ground. Even until he died, Li Xian's eyes were still wide open. He obviously refused to rest in peace!
"Okay! General Yan is mighty!" After a while, bursts of cheers and cheers came down from the top of the city. All the defenders, including Wang Xian and Lingbao, were cheering for Yan Yan's victory.
On the contrary, Yan Yan, the person involved, had no expression of joy after victory at all. Instead, he looked ahead gloomily, as if he saw something bad.
