Chapter 52 The Old Battalion Elite Soldiers
This big black guy is so powerful, the big red-faced guy should be not as fierce as the big black guy, although he looks unusual, right?
The yellow turban bandit was lucky enough to bypass Zhang Fei's side and rushed towards the red-faced man. At this moment, Guan Yu just opened his eyes, rode his horse with a knife, and charged into the yellow turban bandit formation.
Guan Yu was powerful, and cut a yellow-turban bandit in two with one swing of the knife. No matter how brave the yellow-turban bandit was usually, he couldn't stop Guan Yu's knife. The corpses of the yellow turban bandits were everywhere, and there was no one enemy under their command, and the yellow turban bandits went around in fear.
There was a young handsome yellow scarf thief who was furious and galloped out: "Red-faced thief, don't show off your prestige!"
Guan Yu sneered, "You came just in time to kill a thief for the court!"
The yellow scarf handsome man held two sabers, and he slashed at Guan Yu's head and his chest, trying to make Guan Yu unable to take care of both the head and the tail. Unexpectedly, Guan Yu smashed through thousands of troops with a saber head-on, and pressed the blade of a saber. The powerful Qinglong Dao suddenly pressed down, pressed the right saber on the left saber, and then easily slashed across his chest.
The two horses staggered past, and the yellow scarf thief Xiaoshuai was split into two halves, while Guan Yu's sword was stained with blood, looking majestic.
With Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, the two ten thousand enemies, the Youzhou Army became more powerful for a while, while the Yellow Turban Army was terrified. There were more and more casualties, and the tens of thousands of troops were in danger of being defeated by a mere thousand troops and horses. .
At this moment, Zou Jing's three thousand Youzhou Army suddenly felt that Liu Bei's army was behind the vanguard, and with Zou Jing sharing the pressure in the rear, Liu Bei's army suddenly became more unstoppable. Before that, tens of thousands of Yellow Turban thieves gave way one after another, and no one dared to fight with them.
Xu He was furious: "It's unreasonable for tens of thousands of troops to let more than a thousand officers fight like this!"
At this time, Wei Gong had already rushed back from the right army. After all, the Youzhou army was too powerful, and he did not dare to fight with it, but he said to Xu He: "Commander Qu, the Youzhou army is only relying on the black and red faces in the formation." Two strong generals, it is better to send the Qingqiu old battalion elite to block the advance of the officers and soldiers, under the siege of tens of thousands of troops, the officers and soldiers will be defeated if they are few."
Hearing Wei Gong's suggestion, Xu He felt a pain in his heart: "It doesn't matter, if you send two thousand elite soldiers from Qingqiu's old battalion to attack him head-on, there must be no mistake."
Wei Gong was overjoyed, and the 3,000 elite soldiers of the old battalion that surrounded Xu He suddenly separated into 2,000 people, and they faced the Youzhou Army with great energy.
At this time, the formation of the 30,000 Yellow Turban Thieves was about to be pierced by the Youzhou Army, and it was about to be defeated, but with the arrival of the 2,000 Qingqiu old battalion, the situation was stabilized.
These two thousand Qingqiu old battalion veterans are long-standing bandits who have followed Xu He all the year round. They live a life of licking blood with their knives. They are far more brave and elite than ordinary yellow scarf bandits. Under the leadership, he went upstream against the current and challenged the vigorous Liu Beijun head-on.
The indomitable Youzhou Army and the elite soldiers of the old battalion collided like two torrents. The old battalion of Qingqiu was fierce, while the morale of Liu Beijun was high. .
Guan Yu raised his hand and slashed out with a knife. Unexpectedly, the bandit soldier on the opposite side rolled away and escaped with a knife on his shoulder, but because of his inconvenient movement, he was slashed head-on by Guan Yu's second knife.
Guan Yu frowned slightly: This group of bandits is very fierce, I'm afraid it's not good.
While Guan Yu was thinking about it, three elite soldiers from the old battalion surrounded him fiercely, as if they were going to join forces to capture and kill Guan Yu. The three of them attacked in three directions. Then a knife stabbed out, killing one person.
The remaining two people looked at each other, one rushed forward, opened his arms to hug Guan Yu, and was immediately cut into two by Guan Yu, but the second person took the opportunity to roll on the ground and swung his knife. Cut off the two front hoofs of the horse under the seat, the horse immediately knelt down on the ground. Fortunately, Guan Yu saw the opportunity quickly, held the horse's back with one hand, jumped on the ground and slashed with a knife, forcing back the yellow turban bandits who surrounded him.
Countless yellow turban thieves saw Guan Yu's horse dead, thought they had an opportunity, and immediately surrounded him from all directions. However, although Guan Yu lost his horse, he did not panic at all.
Zhang Fei was furious when he saw his second brother being surrounded.
"Death to me!"
With a roar like thunder, Zhang Fei galloped his horse into the Yellow Turban bandits, and stretched out his hand to Guan Yu: "Second brother, get on your horse and stand firm in the battle."
Guan Yu didn't answer, nodded and held Zhang Fei's palm, and sat behind Zhang Fei. Both of them were generals of bears and tigers, and they pressed Zhang Fei's war horse so hard that they almost hunched over, and they fought and retreated back into the formation with difficulty.
Seeing the two returning, Liu Bei immediately asked with concern, "Is Yun Chang all right?"
Guan Yu's heart warmed up: "Brother, don't worry, a mere yellow scarf thief can't hurt Guan."
Liu Bei is quite a man of the city, his emotions and anger are invisible, but just now he was worried about his own face, which shows that the brotherhood of the three is really extraordinary.
Successfully repelled the two tens of thousands of enemies in Guanzhang. Although the casualties were heavy, the morale of the elite soldiers of the old battalion was boosted, and because they resisted the advance of the Youzhou army, the morale of the Yellow Turban bandits, which was about to collapse, stabilized and began to attack Youzhou Army flank.
On the other hand, the Youzhou Army almost killed tens of thousands of Yellow Turban troops all the way. Although it is majestic, it consumes a lot of physical strength. During the bitter battle, fortunately, the formation was dense and Liu Bei commanded calmly, so he was still able to resist the siege of the Yellow Turban Thieves.
Although Zou Jing's more than 3,000 Youzhou Army faced far less pressure than Liu Bei's vanguard army, they also saw that the situation was not good, and immediately sent someone to inform Liu Bei: whether to retreat, and set up camp to avoid the Yellow Turbans. Bingfeng?
Liu Bei shook his head, with a complicated expression: "The Yellow Turban bandits are sharp and their morale is like a rainbow. If they retreat at this time, they will be taken advantage of by the bandits. I'm afraid that the Yellow Turban bandits will chase them along the way and our army will be defeated."
"Let's stick to it. The defenders in Linzi City must have watched our army fight hard, and will soon send troops to rescue, and then our army can retreat."
Although Zou Jing was the nominal commander of the Youzhou Army, he knew that Liu Bei's ability to lead the army was far superior to his own, so he usually asked Liu Bei for advice, and when he heard Liu Bei's reply, he immediately ordered the whole army to stand firm.
For a while, the Youzhou army fell into a bitter battle, but with the hard work of Liu Guanzhang and the three of them, they were still able to persevere.
But in Linzi City, there was a dispute between the defenders. What's ridiculous is that the dispute turned out to be that they couldn't get out of the city for rescue. It's really ridiculous.
