Chapter 368 The Battle of Heqi City
"Rumble, rumble." At this time, horses' hoofs suddenly sounded loudly on the grassland, and then cavalry rushed to kill. Seeing that the costume was not someone else but the cavalry led by Zang Ba and Wei Xu, it was just for the unified dispatch period, and now they are under the command of Zhang Liao.
"General Zhang Liao, you see, there are Xianbei cavalry in front of them. Xianbei people are too arrogant, but ten thousand soldiers and horses dare to attack our Heqi City and let me teach them a lesson." These days, although Zang Ba has also fought with the soldiers and horses and the Xianbei people, most of them are the people facing Xianbei. Even if they meet some armed forces, they are not the elite of the establishment. Therefore, as soon as they see the Xianbei people's army and horses, they feel a little itchy. They rushed out to the soldiers behind him without Zhang Liao's answer. .
"Wait, don't be reckless." Zhang Liao wanted to make a statement to stop it, but it seemed too late. Although Lv Bu asked Zhang Liao to restrain Zang Ba and Wei Xu, although Zhang Liao was very valued by Lv Bu, on the one hand, his prestige in the army was not enough to deter the two people. On the other hand, Zhang Liao's military achievements were not more than the two, so the so-called abence could only be verbal. When Zang Ba led the troops out, Zhang Liao really had no good way, but he was a little uneasy.
"Ha ha, General Zhang Liao, this Zang Ba is impulsive. I'll go up and help you watch him." Wei Xu was the first to be with Lv Bu. In Lv Bu's army, he was an old ruffian. Seeing Zang Ba rush out, he was naturally not willing to lag behind. However, compared with Zang Ba's approach, Wei Xu was much more clever.
"No worries. Do you think the Xianbei people in front of you are a little strange?" Seeing that Wei Xu was also going to lead the army to kill, this time Zhang Liao hurriedly stopped him.
"Is it strange? I think they are no different from other Xianbei people. Hearing Zhang Liao's question, Wei Xu looked carefully at the Xianbei people in front of him and shook his head and said.
"The Xianbei people are only 10,000, which is comparable to our number. Our soldiers and horses have already accelerated, looking at the impact in their direction, but they have no intention of rushing over. Are they waiting to die?" After taking a look at Wei Xu, Zhang Liao reminded him. The cavalry rushes by speed. Using their own high speed can not only kill the enemy, but also disperse the enemy's formation to achieve unexpected strike effects. On the contrary, if the cavalry does not rely on speed, it is equivalent to losing a big killer. Naturally, Xianbei people will not understand this truth, so if they do not rush over, then There must be another reason.
"Is it? General Zhang meant, did they have an ambush? Wei Xu is also an old man with experience in combat. After Zhang Liao's words, he suddenly realized a little and said in surprise.
"Don't worry. Let's slow down a little bit and see what's going on." Lv Bu said hesitantly.
"But isn't General Zang Ba dangerous in this way?" Unlike Zhang Liao's consideration of the whole war situation, Wei Xu first thought of Zang Ba's safety.
"Ha ha, don't worry, General Zang Ba is not so vulnerable. Even if there is any danger, we can still rescue it. But if we rush up together, once we are ambushed by the enemy, I'm afraid no one can save us. After all, there are no cavalry in Heqi City. As for those infantry, we don't have to expect them to play a role in the cavalry battle. Regarding Wei Xu's worries, Zhang Liao said with a smile. Zang Ba has followed Lv Bu's martial arts for many years, which is naturally not weak, which is one of the reasons why Zhang Liao has confidence in Zang Ba. However, in contrast, how to force Xianbei people to win this battle, Zhang Liao needs to plan well. There must be only 10,000 cavalry in Zhang Liao's hand. Although Zhang Liao is a clever daughter-in-law, he is also It's hard to cook without rice.
"That's right. Zang Ba is usually very arrogant and should teach her a lesson." After listening to Zhang Liao's words, Wei Xu thought a little and really gloated. These days, Zang Ba relied on his cavalry to become an army earlier than Wei Xu, and his combat effectiveness was stronger than Wei Xu's soldiers and horses. He showed off in front of me. At this time, Zang Ba suffered a little, but Wei Xu was also very relieved.
"Your excellency, the Han army has rushed over. Shall we take action?" Watching Zang Ba lead his troops straight to his side, the Xianbei general behind Han Sui asked for instructions.
After Helian Chihuo accepted Han Sui's suggestion, he took 20,000 soldiers and horses to hide and ambush, and let Han Sui stay in place with the remaining 10,000 horses. On the one hand, he could monitor the Heqi City, and on the other hand, he could also be said to leave his soldiers and horses to respond.
"No, there are only 10,000 ordinary cavalry. I think General Helian should be able to eat it. We just need to wait to take action when necessary." Han Sui and Helian have a clear division of labor, and naturally they will not change the battle plan because of this change.
"Grandma, what is this? Obviously, only 10,000 enemy troops came, but only half of them entered the encirclement. It was rumored that Mengo asked him to take 10,000 horses to solve the 5,000 people in front of him first, and the rest of the soldiers and horses directly attacked the enemy's back team with me. Looking at the Han cavalry, which was originally 10,000 horses, suddenly divided into two teams. The previous team had entered the ambush circle, but the team behind fell far behind. Helian was furious. Although he was a little angry, he also knew that it was the best time to attack at present. The enemy must be only 10,000, and he had an absolute advantage of 20,000 to fight 10,000. As long as he took the Han cavalry in front of him, It has already established a complete advantage.
"Woo-woo, woo-woo." With the order of Helian's fire, the sad horn began to sound, and then a team of Xianbei cavalry emerged from all directions and began to attack the Han cavalry.
"Is there really an ambush for grandma's humble man? When did these guys become so smart?" Previously, when Zhang Liao said that Xianbei people might be fraudulent, he was a little skeptical about the illusion, but now that he saw the appearance of Xianbei ambush, Wei Xu finally understood why Lv Bu asked Zhang Liao to restrain himself instead of taking care of Zhang Liao.
"Ye, it seems that there are 30,000 people in Xianbei. No wonder they dare to set up an ambush outside Heqi City." Seeing the Xianbei people coming out from all sides, Zhang Liao did not rush to count the number of Xianbei people, and then said something that made Wei Xu a little ignorant.
"Since General Zhang Liao has 30,000 people in Xianbei, how can we fight this battle?" Seeing Zhang Liao's calm and leisurely appearance, Wei Xu just changed his somewhat flustered heart and calmed down and asked.
"The enemy is 30,000, and our army is only 10,000. There is no way to fight this battle. We rush to the peaceful city and use the protection on the wall to fight against the Xianbei people. If it really doesn't work, we will enter the city." Wei Xu looked at Zhang Liao with hope. Unexpectedly, what Zhang Liao said made Wei Xu very frustrated. What kind of words could they say?
However, although Wei Xu was discouraged, his hand was not slow. He hurriedly waved his hand into the air and rushed away in the direction of Heqi City with the brigade.
"General Zang Ba, we are surrounded. What should we do?" Compared with Zhang Liao and Wei Xu's situation, Zang Ba's situation is much more dangerous. Xianbei people have long planned to concentrate their soldiers and horses on a relative highland. When Zang Ba's army passed from below, it suddenly killed them. It was not only sudden, but also accelerated the speed of impact with the help of the terrain.
"Ley them alone and keep moving forward." Looking at the Xianbei people coming out from the surroundings, Zang Ba didn't even blink his eyelids. He just stared at the 10,000 cavalry led by Han Sui in front of him. It seemed that in his eyes, there was nothing but the 10,000 cavalry led by Han Sui.
In fact, this is also Zang Ba's helpless move. Zang Ba and Wei Xu's cavalry came from afar, but Xianbei people are waiting for work with ease. What's more, it is 10,000 Xianbei cavalry who ambued Zang Ba now. As long as Zang Ba hesitates a little, once he fights with the ambush in western Zhejiang, Zang Ba's 5,000 soldiers and horses will be deeply encircled and can no longer extricate themselves. There is only one possibility to wait for their fate to change, that is, to be torn to pieces by the enemy. At this time, the only way to live is to move forward. Although Zang Ba's soldiers and horses show a disadvantage compared with the 10,000 Xianbei cavalry that surrounds him, they have an advantage compared with Han Sui, who thought he was safe and did not accelerate. As long as he rushed from Han Sui, he was under the city. At that time, Zang Ba was able to enter. Attack and retreat can be defended.
"Lord Han Sui, the Han army has been killed. What should we do?" Seeing Zang Ba leading people to kill him, someone immediately reminded Han Sui.
"Damn, this Helian fire is really an idiot. Don't you understand that it's better to break one finger than to hurt his ten fingers? If it hadn't been for such a good opportunity, if he hadn't adjusted his combat plan and wanted to kill all the 10,000 enemy cavalry, which would have been a loopholes in the ambush circle. I'm afraid that these 5,000 enemies would have been the meat in his mouth." Seeing Zang Ba thinking about killing himself, Han Sui said angrily.
In Han Sui's opinion, He Lian's fire undoubtedly let go of the best opportunity to destroy the enemy. You should know that Zang Ba's department in front of you, but one-quarter of the cavalry power in Lv Bu's hand, once it is eliminated, it must be a great blow to Lv Bu. However, at present, Han Sui is unwilling to fight against these 5,000 cavalry. The wolf horse must be Lv Bu's elite. This has to be prevented. Thinking of this, Han Sui gritted his teeth and said, "It is said that the army should move to the left to avoid the Han army."
"Your excellency, didn't you let them go?" Hearing Han Sui's words, the generals of Xianbei who were not around him were shocked. They couldn't believe that this must be the only 5,000 enemy they surrounded. As long as Han Sui rushed up with them and blocked them, the hope of Zang Ba's life would be almost zero.
"Do as I say, and those who disobey the order will be cut off." Han Sui ignored the doubts of the general Xianbei and said with a dark face. With Han Sui's order, Han Sui's own soldiers stood up behind him and pressed the handle of the knife, as if he really meant to kill. These soldiers are all Han people who were born and died with Han Sui. They have always listened to Han Sui's dispatch, which can be said to be Han Sui's most trustworthy subordinate. As soon as these people stood up, the others had no objection and hurried to carry out Han Sui's orders.
"General Zhang Liao's move is really dangerous." Seeing the changes under the city, Xun Yu did not close to pinch a handful of sweat and said, "I didn't expect that General Zhang Liao had such a temperament to test the reality of the Xianbei people with 5,000 people. Fortunately, the Xianbei people divided their troops. If the Xianbei people were partially merged, I'm afraid that the 5,000 people of General Zang Ba would not report it." Xun Yu said with emotion.
"I'm afraid this is not Zhang Liao's battle plan, but some people make their own decisions." Lv Bu and Zang Ba have been together for a long time. Naturally, they know Zang Ba's temper. At this time, Zang Ba can listen to others.
"General, you see, Han Sui suddenly dodged." When Xun Yu saw that Han Sui suddenly led the troops to move to one side, his eyes suddenly said.
"Hahaha. Han Sui must know that my wolf is very good at riding, so he should set aside some soldiers and horses just in case. Since he wants to see my wolf riding so much, let him see it. I'm afraid his 10,000 people can't resist. Seeing Han Sui's performance, Lv Bu laughed. In fact, Lv Bu came to the Heqi City at the same time. The wolf horse has also arrived, but he didn't show up in order to hide his eyes and ears. Lv Bu waited for this opportunity, that is, when all the Xianbei soldiers and horses moved. If the Xianbei army does not move, it will not reveal its weakness, and it will not be able to grasp the fighter. Once the enemy moves, it will expose its weakness. This is also the fighter that the wolf is waiting for, winning more with less. Cheng Lian's thunder drum, let the wolf ride to attack.
"Dong Dong Dong, Dong Dong." As a cavalryman, he generally uses the horn as a signal to rush. In order to prevent confusion with the Xianbei people, and to fight outside the Heqi City, Lv Bu chose the drum sound as the signal to launch the impact. And this is also more confusing for Xianbei people.
Just as the sound of drums in the Heqi City sounded, the Xianbei people were stunned and looked at the Heqi City, but there was no movement on the side of the Heqi City except for the drums. At the same time, a touch of black did appear on the surrounding grassland.
Dian Wei, Cao Xing, Fang Yue and Yan Xing appeared in the front row of a team of wolves.
"Children, the harvest season is coming. Kill me." Dian Wei roared, and with the three thousand iron ropes behind him, he began to attack with a vigorous pace. Wherever he went, it was like destruction, and the wind swept through the clouds.
"Brothers, General Lv Bu is watching us there. Let's fully show our ability." Although Cao's bow horse has not been formed for a long time, it is full of hope for the bow cavalry Cao's horse Cao's horse, because Lv Bu has always hoped that Cao's bow horse can build an elite like the white horse, and this is Cao's goal.
"Kill with me." Unlike Dian Wei Cao, although Yan Xing is the main general of the other four thousand wolf riders, he does have no appeal and control for this wolf rider, because the four thousand wolf riders have always been subordinate to Lv Bu himself. It can be said to be Lv Bu's own soldier, and this time it's just that Lv Bu wants to see his loyalty to Yan Xing. Although he can command the 4,000 wolf riders in this battle, as soon as the battle is over, he will be beaten back to his original shape. There is only one reason why Lv Bu left Yan Xing and Fang Yue by his side, that is, to them It's not reassuring enough.
"General Yan Xing, we must perform well this time. These 4,000 wolf riders are the strongest in General Lu Bu's army." Looking back at the wolf horse behind him and the three javelins behind each of them, Fang Yue said angrily.
"Don't worry, I won't humiliate their reputation." Looking at Fang Yue in front of him, Yan Xing said. Although he was very in trouble with Lv Bu before, since he was under the shelter of others, Yan Xing was still very conscious that he didn't want Lv Bu to find a chance to destroy himself.
"Lord Han Sui, look at those cavalry, they are so strange. They are all black." Looking at the appearance of the wolf horse dressed in black armor, Xianbei suddenly felt an invisible pressure coming.
"Come with me and block them." Seeing that the wolf rider finally appeared, Han Sui roared and greeted him with the 10,000 Qiang soldiers beside him. However, whether he could resist the wolf rider was not what he could expect, but its purpose was not to resist the wolf rider, but to drag the wolf rider. As long as he could hold the wolf rider, Helian's fire would have enough. Time to destroy Wei Xu and Zang Ba.
"General Zhang Liao, Xianbei is chasing after us. It's not a way for us to go on like this. Shall we go back and fight for a while?" Looking at the continuous approach of Helian's fire behind him, Wei Xu asked Zhang Liao eagerly. Zhang Liao's previous expectation was like a god, which made Wei Xu admire him very much, so he asked Zhang Liao first before taking action.
"The Xianbei people's kung fu is indeed better than ours. In this case, we will divide the two ways and take them to play." Zhang Liao obviously had no intention of fighting with Xianbei people, and said thoughtfully.
"General, as a soldier, how can you retreat without fighting? How can you defeat the enemy by running away like this? Regarding Zhang Liao's arrangement, Wei Xu said in a somewhat inconsistent way.
"Now General Lv Bu's 10,000 wolf riders are fighting with the 10,000 Xianbei army. Now the most anxious thing is the Xianbei people behind us. When Han Sui's 10,000 Xianbei people can't stand it, the Xianbei people behind us will definitely go to rescue. At that time, wouldn't it be better for us to go back to kill the enemy? Are you still afraid that the 10,000 people behind you are not enough for you to kill? Besides, it's not easy for General Wei Xu to get these 5,000 cavalry. I believe the general doesn't want to lose anything. Seeing that Wei Xu was a little unhappy, Zhang Liao persuaded him again. At first, Wei Xu didn't care. When he knew that Zhang Liao said that the 5,000 cavalry was not easy to get, Wei Xu readily agreed. It must have been that Wei Xu had a hard time getting the 5,000 cavalry, and naturally he did not want to suffer any major damage.
"Well, general, when can I go to war?" Lv Bu and Xun Yu were watching the war outside the city nervously. Tai Shici did come behind Lv Bu and asked anxiously. Cheng Lian, next to Tai Shici, also came over and looked at Lv Bu eagerly. Today, Cheng Lian was full of energy and wanted to show his hand in front of Lv Bu. He didn't think that Xianbei people would not attack the city, so that he didn't have a chance to perform. He could only see if he could attack with Tai Shici.
"Why are you ready?" Seeing Tai Shici coming, Lv Bu asked.
"I'm ready to reply to the lord. I've made up a total of 3,000 people. Although the combat effectiveness is not strong, there should be some combat effectiveness, and I can barely fight." Although what Tai Shici said was serious, Lv Bu saw the anxiety in it, but these people were only used to make up for the facade. Lv Bu did not intend to let them really rush to kill with the Xianbei people, but there was no need to worry too much.
