Chapter 485 Two Armies Confronting

"Back when Qin State attacked South Korea's Shangdang County, and the county guard dedicated Shangdang County to Zhao State, Qin State became angry and fought a decisive battle with Zhao State. This was the tragic Battle of Changping." Xia Houyuan frowned: "Our army's His strength is not as good as that of Zhao Jun back then."

"It doesn't matter." Xi Zhicai said with a smile: "Our army expelled the false emperor and went to Luoyang. The general rewarded us before it was too late, so how could we send troops to attack?"

"Hahaha, that's exactly the case!" Cao Cao laughed, "Yuan Shu proclaiming himself emperor is like a rat crossing the street. Everyone shouts and beats him. Our army will do whatever it takes."

At the moment when Cao Cao led his army to station in Shouchun and confronted Yuan Shu urgently, a world-shattering battle had already begun in Yingchuan County, with a force of 100,000 troops participating in the battle.

"Beat the drum!"

Boom boom boom!

The shocking sound of war drums soared into the sky, as if the heart of a giant was beating violently. On the wide plain outside Yingyang City, two large armies were in front of the battle. Countless banners were flying violently in the wind, and the atmosphere of the war was about to break out. .

The two armies faced each other, and the weaker side was naturally Zhang Xun's troops. After the loss of the siege a few days ago, and the cavalry assault led by Ma Chao twice, nearly half of the 60,000 troops were lost, and only 34,000 were left. There are more than a thousand people, but even so, it still seems to be quite powerful, and it is dark.

On the other hand, the Allied Forces of the Two Lius opposite Zhang Xunjun was even more powerful, with a force of nearly 60,000 people, twice that of Zhang Xunjun, and they had a strict banner and well-trained.

Liu Ye personally sits in the central army. He sits on a chariot with a dignified appearance and a wisp of beard under his chin. Among the two wings of the Chinese army, Liu, Guan and Zhang led an army of 10,000 as the left wing. It was the Danyang soldiers under the command of the three brothers and the newly trained Yuzhou soldiers. The general's drills can be called awe-inspiring military appearance.

And on the right wing of the army, there are a total of 10,000 Xiliang cavalry! In the army, the banners with the characters "horse" and "Pang" were respectively displayed, and the leading generals were Ma Chao and Pound, both of whom were Liangzhou warriors who were good at cavalry combat.

Tens of thousands of horses stood in the wind, and the horses in the front row snorted impatiently and gently pawed the ground with their hooves, as if to gather strength for the upcoming battle.

"General!"

A horse in the formation galloped over, holding a small flag, and shouted loudly: "General Ma, please ask the general, do you want to lead the attack?"

Liu Ye waved his hand: "Order General Ma to stay calm and not to be impatient, not to follow the general's order, and not to attack without authorization."

"promise!"

After the sentry came back, he reported to Ma Chao. Ma Chao couldn't help but sighed: "I really don't know what the general is waiting for. With the combat power of Zhang Xun's army, I don't think there is any need to send out infantry, just use the Xiliang iron cavalry. In the first battle, it will be easy to fight." capable of defeating the enemy."

"Since the general won't let me wait to attack, there is a reason for the general, so don't be impatient with Meng Qi." Pang De persuaded.

As time went by, Liu Ye's army never launched an attack, and the two armies with nearly 100,000 soldiers just stared at them with wide eyes.

"General, should we wait like this?" Li Feng asked for instructions.

"Attack!" Zhang Xun frowned and said, "If we wait like this, our army's spirit will be wiped out, so we must attack immediately."

"Don't worry about the enemy cavalry, order the whole army to attack Liu Ye's middle army!" Zhang Xun ordered.

The sound of the war drums that had been subdued suddenly became more intense, and the sound of the horn spread to farther places with the wind. As Zhang Xun launched the general attack order, more than 30,000 soldiers of the Yuan army rushed out with the will to die.

"kill!"

"The general has an order to attack the enemy's middle army, and there must be no mistakes!"

The army was short of food and grass, so Zhang Xun found a general who was fond of embezzlement of military equipment and food and beheaded him on the spot. He was the one who withheld food and grass in Xuancheng, and then ordered the whole army to have a full meal. The morale was boosted for a while, and he rushed out suddenly, but he was quite imposing for a while.

"Hold on, don't go out to fight." Liu Ye ordered.

"The general has an order, stick to it and don't go to war!"

boom!

The Liangzhou soldiers in the front row raised their big shields one after another, and an indestructible shield wall suddenly appeared in the front row, and behind the shield wall were sharp spears.

"kill!"

More than 30,000 Zhang Xun's army rushed up like a flood, and hit the squatting wall fiercely, causing their heads to bleed.

The shield formation of the Liangzhou soldiers was very strong, but Zhang Xun's soldiers seemed to be crazy for a while, and launched an attack bravely without fear of death.

On the shield formation in the front row, hundreds of Sergeant Zhang Xun rushed up, raised the spears, knives and axes in their hands with a ferocious expression, and slashed fiercely on the shield, sparking a series of sparks .

Pooh!

The spearmen of the Xiliang army behind the sword and shield soldiers looked at the right time, and suddenly sent out the spear in their hands. The sharp spear pierced through Zhang Xunjun's armor easily, then retracted quickly, and then stabbed again. Therefore, there were countless corpses in front of the shield formation of the Xiliang Army.

"Ah, get out of my way!"

A soldier in Zhang Xun's army roared, stepped on the corpse of his fellow robe, and forcibly got in front of the shield formation, then suddenly handed out the long knife in his hand, passed through the gap between the shield formations, and killed a Xiliang soldier. The soldiers beheaded and killed, instantly opening a gap.

"Follow me to kill, kill in!"

After Zhang Xunjun's fierce soldiers opened this gap, countless Zhang Xunjun rushed over like a rush, and the front line of Liangzhou soldiers was in danger for a while.

"Don't panic, increase your troops immediately, and drive the enemy out!"

Guan Hai, who was supervising the battle on the front line, was furious after seeing this scene, and directly led hundreds of soldiers around him to kill them.

"Captain Huben Guan Hai is here, which one will come forward to lead him to death?"

Guan Hai slashed left and right with a big knife in his hand, but the water he cast couldn't get in. The sharp blade cut several soldiers of Zhang Xun into two.

Guan Hai personally supervised the battle, and the gap in the front line was quickly closed. After all, although Zhang Xun's soldiers fought to the death for a while, the Liangzhou soldiers were brave and good at fighting, so they quickly drove out Zhang Xun's soldiers.

Only Liu Ye's central army was attacked, while the left and right wings did not participate in the battle. The situation was quite strange for a while.

"Big Brother, Second Brother." Zhang Fei stuck the Zhangba Snake Spear on the ground and said impatiently, "Why didn't Yu Qing give us the order to attack? My hands are itchy."

"Yide." Liu Bei warned: "Yuqing is now a general, the head of civil and military affairs in the court, so don't call him by his name casually in the future."

"Got it." Zhang Fei said sullenly.

At this time, Liu Ye's eyes flashed, and he waved the command flag in his hand.
