Chapter 265 Flying Bear Army

Throughout the ages, there is a type of army that has the strongest combat effectiveness, and that is the frontier army guarding the frontier. Because the frontier army often fights against foreign troops that come to invade, they have a lot of combat experience and are very elite.

Whether it is Gongsun Zan's White Horse Yicong, Lu Bu and Dong Zhuo's Bingzhou Iron Cavalry, or Liu Ye's Liangzhou Iron Cavalry, all of them are heroes in the world. Among Dong Zhuo's Bingzhou iron cavalry, he attacked the Qiang people and received rewards from the court, and he also specially used it to build an elite army of 5,000 people, which is the Feixiong Army.

Although the Flying Bear Army was only 5,000 in number, their armored rate was almost 100%. All the minor officers above Dubo in the army were all wearing iron armor and well-equipped, which was also Dong Zhuo's greatest reliance.

Even if Lu Bu turned against the water, Dong Zhuo was confident that the Feixiong army would be enough to resist Lu Bu's Bingzhou iron cavalry.

But this time, in order to manage Yongliang and Liangzhou, Dong Zhuo directly allocated two thousand flying bear troops to Li Jue, which made him feel distressed for a long time, and repeatedly told Li Jue to be careful.

"Brother Zhiran, I have long heard that Liu Ye has put down Han Sui's 100,000 Qiang soldiers. This time we are afraid it will be a hard battle." Zhang Ji said with emotion to Li Jue.

When Li Jue heard Zhang Ji's words, he couldn't help but sneered: "Han Sui has a hundred thousand soldiers, but they are just mobs. Can a group of Qiang soldiers be compared with Feixiong's army?"

Zhang Ji smiled: "That's right, I didn't expect that this time the Prime Minister would transfer Fei Xiong Jun to me to wait for two thousand riders. I really want to see what Liu Ye's child looks like when he sees Fei Xiong Jun."

"Uncle, I heard that Liu Ye is unparalleled in bravery, and my nephew's spear skills are great, so he may not be his opponent."

When Li Jue and Zhang Ji were talking, a young general who was handsome and somewhat similar to Zhang Ji charged forward with a spear in his hand, quite dissatisfied.

Zhang Ji laughed: "Xiu'er, Uncle heard that someone named you the Northern Spear King, and that Liu Ye also used a long spear. If you defeat Liu Ye this time, Uncle's face will be terrible." There will be great light.”

Zhang Xiu proudly said: "Uncle, don't worry, the person who disciplined Liu Ye and got a bad reputation was defeated by my nephew."

Li Jue looked at Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu's uncle and nephew talking and laughing, and couldn't help but look at his nephew Li Li next to him.

Seeing his uncle's gaze, Li Li immediately patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, uncle, I won't embarrass my uncle."

Li Jue and Zhang Ji laughed at the same time.

"Accelerate the march, within three days, we must arrive at Tongguan."

The 30,000 army surged like a tide and accelerated towards the west.

Chang'an City is the strongest city in Guanzhong, and Liu Ye also knew that it was not realistic to storm Chang'an, so even after joining Pang De with an army of more than 20,000, he did not storm Chang'an City.

Liu Ye personally led the army to sit outside the city of Chang'an, and at the same time dispatched Pang De, Yu Jin, and Zhang Jai to attack the counties and counties around Yongzhou, Lantian, Weinan, Fuping, and Gaoling.

In the direction of Huayin, a knight galloped into the military camp outside Chang'an City. The guards guarding the camp gate saw the flag behind him and the feathers on his helmet, and immediately let him in.

The knight rushed into the camp without stopping, rushed to the front of the large tent of the Chinese army, then got off his horse, rushed into the tent in a hurry, and knelt down on one knee.

"Zhou Mu! The latest news from the direction of Huayin, delivered by Captain Zhang He."

Seeing this, Xun You stood up, took the letter from the knight, tore off the seal, opened it, and couldn't help frowning.

Liu Ye asked, "Gongda, what's wrong, what did Junyi say?"

Xun You turned around and said, "Zhou Mu, according to the message from Captain Zhang, it seems that an army of tens of thousands of people is coming from the direction of Tongguan. It seems to be reinforcements sent by Dong Zhuo."

Liu Ye got up and said, "It came so fast."

He looked at Xun You: "Gongda, tell a certain general to order all the troops to immediately abandon the counties and counties in their hands, and move closer to the headquarters as quickly as possible, preparing to fight the enemy."

"Here!" Xun You went out immediately and called several scouts to give their explanations. After a while, the scouts galloped out of the camp outside Chang'an City and headed in several other directions.

Lantian County.

After reading the letter in his hand, Yu Jin nodded.

"Soldier."

"Lieutenant Yu, what are your orders?"

"Order the entire army to immediately withdraw from Lantian and retreat in the direction of Chang'an."

"Here!"

All of a sudden, the troops were divided to attack Yu Jin who captured many counties and counties. Pang De, Zhang Jai and other generals led their soldiers and horses to retreat towards Chang'an City.

On July 16th, all Liangzhou soldiers gathered under the city of Chang'an, with a total of 22,000 soldiers.

Li Jue led an army of 30,000 troops, passed Hangu Pass from Luoyang, passed Tongguan, marched westward to Yongliang with great fanfare, and took over Huayin, Huaxian, Pushui, Weinan, and Lantian, which were captured by Liu Ye and others, and finally led his army to the city of Chang'an. .

It was a day when the wind was blowing and the yellow sand was rolling. As the so-called autumn is high and refreshing, the autumn in the north is full of strong winds, and there is a world of wind above the open fields.

In the bitter wind, there are two armies standing opposite each other, each forming a huge army formation, as if two giant beasts in the "Shan Hai Jing" met on a narrow road, staring at each other, but afraid of each other powerful, but did not dare to act without authorization.

There was a slight difference in the size of the two army formations. Li Jue's 30,000 army was 8,000 more than Liu Ye's. However, Li Jue, who had always been arrogant, did not dare to defeat Liu Ye's army when he saw the formation of Liu Ye's army.

Liu Ye's army numbered 22,000, including 7,000 cavalry and 15,000 infantry. The center of the cavalry formation was the main force, and the 15,000 infantry were divided into left and right wings.

This is also Liu Ye's consistent tactic in commanding operations. He uses the sharpness of the cavalry to force a breakthrough against the enemy's central army, and then a large number of infantry breaks forward under the cover of the cavalry to expand the results. In fact, it is almost the same as the coordinated infantry tactics. Step and ride coordination.

Li Jue stood in the middle of the army, turned his head and said: "Zhang Ji, line up the flying bear army and infantry in the center, and the cavalry in the two wings. When the enemy cavalry charges, immediately launch the two-wing cavalry to attack and destroy the enemy cavalry , and then pursue the enemy infantry."

Zhang Ji nodded, and then went down to make arrangements.

"Uncle, ask someone to lead the cavalry and take Liu Ye's head from the chaos!" Zhang Xiu asked immediately.

Zhang Ji nodded: "Later, you will follow uncle and flank the enemy cavalry with cavalry."

When Zhang Xiu heard that Zhang Ji agreed to her, she immediately nodded excitedly, then clenched the silver gun in her hand, gearing up.

"Zhang Xiu, let's see later whether it's you who got Liu Ye's head, or someone with a better skill!" Li Li sneered.

Zhang Xiu snorted: "Li Li, don't think too much, Liu Ye's head is in someone's pocket."

"Tsk tsk, your ability to talk big is not small."

Zhang Xiu and Li Li confront each other.
