Xu Rong stared intently down the mountain, waiting quietly for the enemy to appear. Although Dong Zhuo followed Li Ru's suggestion, he asked him to lead a group of troops to ambush in the low mountains on both sides of Xingyang Road to intercept the pursuing coalition forces.
Soldiers. However, what worries Xu Rong is that Dong Zhuo only gave himself 30,000 infantry. If the enemy army comes, who knows how effective these ambush troops will be?
Although before leaving, Jia Xu, an aide under Dong Zhuo's tent, comforted himself by saying that all the princes in the coalition had different ideas and pursuers were unlikely to appear. Even if pursuers did come, the number would never be large. Thirty thousand troops would definitely
It was enough to defeat it. Although Jia Xu was usually inconspicuous in the Xiliang army and was not reused by Dong Zhuo because of his taciturnity, Xu Rong knew that he was a hidden recluse and his intelligence was also unknown.
I have always admired it. But for some reason, Xu Rong could not suppress the anxiety in his heart. He kept thinking about what to do if the coalition forces really sent out a large number of troops?
However, it is useless to think too much about the situation now. In short, his duty is to do his best to fend off possible pursuers.
After lying in ambush in the valley for nearly two hours, Xu Rong did not see a single enemy soldier, which made him feel a little relieved. But since Xu Rong is known as the best leader in the Xiliang army, he definitely does not deserve his reputation.
Although he had waited for two hours, he still did not slack off at all. As long as it was still dark, he would not let down his guard.
Finally... after waiting for two full hours, a group of men appeared in front of his eyes.
"A little closer..." Xu Rong calculated the distance between the two sides. Although he could not see clearly under the night, Xu Rong had rich marching experience and had fought many night battles. He could be sure of the opponent through a few cursory observations.
There are not many soldiers and horses. At this time, you only need to wait for all the enemy troops to enter your ambush circle, and then annihilate them in one fell swoop.
"Kill——!" Following Xu Rong's order, the ambush soldiers in the mountain dock swarmed out and rushed towards the enemy troops at the foot of the mountain.
"Form up and meet the enemy!" Looking at the sudden enemy attack, Cao Cao also looked gloomy and gave the order to meet the enemy. Fortunately, his army had already made preparations for the possibility of an ambush, so he would not be at a loss to deal with it. If
Being caught off guard by such a surprise attack, it was really possible that he would have to stay here even with his life. Thinking that in the beginning he only wanted to use his five thousand troops to pursue rashly, Cao Cao couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his back.
The two armies soon collided with each other, and the sound of fighting soon filled the sky, and all that could be seen were corpses that continued to fall.
The combined forces of Cao and Liu were far smaller in number than Dong Zhuo's army. In addition, the enemy troops rushed out from the mountains, resulting in unfavorable terrain. Therefore, they quickly fell at a disadvantage. However, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, and Dian Wei
The scene of four murderous god-like figures rushing back and forth among the enemy formations was quite spectacular. Wherever the four men and horses passed, severed heads and limbs flew across, brains and plasma splattered, and their power was unstoppable.
"Happy!" In just a moment, Zhang Fei, who had the most violent temper, became red-eyed. He swept out a spear with his backhand, and two more good heads were chopped off. Looking at the enemy soldiers around him, they were all cowering in shock.
With such a look, Zhang Fei suddenly felt a surge of heroic spirit in his heart. With his own martial arts, except for his second brother, who else in the world can be his opponent! Even if Lu Bu comes in person, he will definitely not be able to defeat him.
Walk around!
Huh, that Cao Cao himself looked pleasing to the eye, at least judging from his behavior of pouring wine for his second brother, he should be considered a good person. It's a pity that Cao Cao's men are so blind, and they admire a pretty boy so much.
I don’t know if the pretty boy has already been hacked to death by the enemy soldiers’ swords.
However, what Zhang Fei saw next was enough to shock him so much that he couldn't even say a word.
I saw a silver gun shining brightly in the night, and the whole gun was like a phoenix, dancing gracefully in the enemy formation. However, although the dance of the phoenix was beautiful, it always carried the smell of death, and the tip of the gun was always
Wherever it points, all vitality is cut off.
And looking at the man wielding the gun, it turned out to be Zhao Yun, the pretty boy whom Zhang Fei despised.
Although Zhang Fei is arrogant, he is sometimes narrow-minded. Seeing Zhao Yun's superb martial arts, he felt a little admiration in his heart. After all, to be fair, he would never be able to perform that kind of marksmanship. But Zhang Fei had to admit that Zhao Yun was
It is absolutely impossible to be the first person under Lu Bu. After all, although he may be inferior to him in terms of the exquisiteness of his marksmanship, Zhang Fei does not think that he will lose to him in a one-on-one duel.
possible.
Seeing that Zhang Fei was distracted, several soldiers around him thought they had an opportunity, so they raised their spears to stab him. However, before they could fully lift the wooden spear in their hands, they heard Zhang Fei snort, and then among the rebels
There were a few more corpses.
"You want to sneak attack me with this little skill? Don't say that I, Old Zhang Zhiwei, am slightly distracted. Even if I am asleep, you rats can't even think of hurting me at all!"
At this time, Gao Shun was fighting not far from Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei shouted so loudly that Gao Shun listened to it word for word and couldn't help but smile.
In addition to Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Dian Wei and others also noticed Zhao Yun's outstanding performance. Guan Yu's slightly narrowed Danfeng eyes were shining, and a hint of fighting spirit flashed from time to time. And Dian Wei was even more excited, exuding excitement all over his body.
Strong murderous intent. Apparently these two people regarded Zhao Yun as a master of the same level as themselves.
Other generals, such as the Xiahou brothers, sighed secretly: "The ancients said that there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world. I will not deceive you if you are honest."
In addition to the four generals Guan, Zhang, Zhao, and Dian, the Xiahou brothers, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, and Gao Shun Lejin are not ordinary people. Although the Cao Liu coalition has a small number of soldiers, it has a group of brave generals. These brave generals take the lead in the formation of the two armies.
His heroic performance greatly inspired the morale of Cao and Liu's coalition forces. Ten thousand people could withstand the impact of 30,000 Xiliang troops in the face of adversity. Who said that the personal bravery of generals could not influence the situation of the battle? If it weren't for these
The brave general's indomitable momentum greatly inspired his own soldiers, and at the same time caused a great deterrent effect on the enemy. I am afraid that under this three-fold troop strength gap, the Xiliang army suffered only a few losses, while the losses of the Cao and Liu coalition forces were
At least twice as much as it is now.
However, the strength of the Xiliang Army was, after all, 20,000 more than that of Cao and Liu's coalition forces. Although the generals of Cao and Liu were brave, the motivational effect of their personal bravery would eventually fade away as the war progressed.
Sooner or later, the Liang army will turn the battlefield into their slaughterhouse and devour the Cao and Liu coalition forces.
But it is a pity that after the Cao and Liu coalition forces, there are still 10,000 elite soldiers commanded by the Jiangdong Tigers.
When the coalition forces of Cao and Liu began to be unable to sustain the Xiliang army's offensive, Sun Jian's 10,000 men happened to join the battlefield.
When Xu Rong saw the appearance of other armies, his heart suddenly became cold. The hunter and the prey inadvertently completed the transformation of each other's roles. The sudden appearance of the Jiangdong Army made the Xiliang Army, which had a great advantage,
Suddenly he was caught in a situation where he was attacked from both front and back.
Although the Jiangdong Army does not have top-notch generals like Guan, Zhang, Zhao, and Dian, the reputation of Jiangdong Tiger Sun Jian and Sun Wentai is known everywhere. It is said that when Dong Zhuo heard about Sun Jian's attack, the first thing he thought of was to marry his daughter to Jiangdong.
In order to ask Sun Jian to retreat. If Yuan Shu hadn't been mean and withheld food and grass, Hua Xiong would have been the ghost of Sun Jian's sword. How could it be Guan Erye's turn to show off? His generals such as Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, etc. were not vegetarians.
Although their martial arts skills are not first-class, they are all good generals. The Jiangdong Army is all soldiers who have fought hundreds of battles, and the quality of their soldiers is second to none in the entire coalition army. These ten thousand people entered the rebel army,
It was really like a violent wave, causing a big wave.
Although Dong Zhuojun still had the upper hand in terms of numbers, Dong Zhuojun didn't know this. They only knew that another large army suddenly came in while they were fighting. People always make things worse when they are pessimistic.
Thinking about the direction, many people subconsciously believed that the number of this newly emerged army must be far greater than their own. The original ambushers suddenly became the besieged, which had a huge blow to morale. In addition,
Fear caused by the unknown situation of the enemy's army, the current situation has taken a turn for the worse for Dong Zhuo's army.
