Chapter 457
Guan Yu stood behind the chariot formation, mixed among the soldiers, and watched with a solemn expression as the soldiers of Liu Jing's army approached step by step, holding up their maces.

Before, Guan Yu placed rocks about a hundred paces away from the chariot formation as a mark. Now that Liu Jingjun had crossed the rocks and was within range of his side, Guan Yu immediately ordered to release the arrows.

Hearing Guan Yu's order, the more than [-] infantry hiding behind the baggage cart immediately pulled the crossbow trigger, and hundreds of crossbow arrows shot out.It's just that the distance between the two sides is still far, and Liu Jing's soldiers are all thickly armored, so the effect is not good.

When Liu Jingjun arrived at the second marked spot, which was sixty paces away, hundreds of cavalry also shot at the enemy with their bows and arrows.

Guan Yu is proficient in bow and horse and dominates China, and his left and right Han Hu knights are all elites who have followed Liu Bei for more than ten years and climbed out of the dead many times. All of them are good at shooting, and they shot down more than ten people in just one round. , which stopped Liu Jingjun's indomitable momentum.

The pioneer warriors led by Huang Zhong were tasked with destroying the formation and destroying the enemy, but they were only armed with spears and sabers, and were not equipped with bows and crossbows, so they were unable to fight back against the enemy.However, Cai Sheng and Liu Liang in the rear would naturally not stand by and watch. They commanded the soldiers to dismount and shoot at foot, suppressing the enemy and covering Huang Zhong.

The two sides came and went, with arrows flying all over the sky. Huang Zhong and his subordinates climbed first, resisting waves of arrow rain, wading through the dense barbed wire on the ground, and entered in front of the enemy's chariot formation. The army launched a bloody hand-to-hand battle, and for a while, swords and spears crisscrossed, and the sound of killing shook the sky.

Liu Beijun's infantry were basically the lucky ones who fled back from Yicheng. In order to get rid of Liu Jingjun's pursuit, heavy "burdens" such as armor and pockets were mostly discarded.

Therefore, although the infantry of Liu Bei's army had a supply cart as a barrier, there were very few armored soldiers, and they were in close contact with the elite soldiers led by Huang Zhong, and they showed signs of exhaustion within a moment.

Wearing heavy armor, Huang Zhong was the first to crash into the car formation, and he slashed into it with the red blood knife in his hand. In an instant, there were two or three dead souls under the knife.

Killing the surrounding enemies in one go, Huang Zhong did not blindly pursue the enemy, because he knew very well that relying on him and the two hundred Xiandeng under his command alone was not enough to defeat the opponent. What he had to do now was to organize his hands and remove the enemies lying in the road. Vehicles to clear the way for the cavalry in the rear.

Cai Sheng and Liu Liang saw that Huang Zhong successfully broke through the enemy's chariot formation so quickly, they couldn't help but smiled at each other, Cai Sheng said: "Huang Hansheng lived up to expectations, now it's our turn to show our skills, if we can capture Liu Bei and Guan Yu in this battle , not only can comfort the souls of Chu (Fang) Ziping and Huo (Du) Bomiao, but also make us famous and valued by the world."

"Brother said it is very true, the world-shocking achievement is right in front of you, and you must not let Liu Bei and Guan Yu get away." Liu Liang couldn't help but feel excited when he thought of Liu Bei and Guan Yu who were famous all over the world being beheaded by him.

Following Cai Sheng and Liu Liang's order, the eight hundred knights got on their horses again. Because the road in the mountain was narrow, they couldn't use their horses. For the first time, it is a small step, then a quick step, and finally a charge...

Just as Liu Jingjun's cavalry was about to rush into the enemy's position and wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop, Guan Yu brazenly led a hundred cavalry to attack at this time.

Counterattacking an enemy ten times stronger with a mere hundred cavalry is self-defeating, but Guan Yu has no other choice now. Liu Bei and his family have only left for a short time. If the enemy cavalry is allowed to charge over, the position may be torn apart in an instant into pieces.

His own life and death are unimportant, and Liu Bei must not make any mistakes, otherwise even if he dies, his heart will not be at ease.What's more, wives and children are among them. Under the nest, there are eggs.For the current plan, the only way is to take the initiative to delay the enemy as much as possible and buy time for Liu Bei.

It has to be said that Guan Yu's choice was somewhat beyond the expectations of Liu Jingjun's officers and men. Huang Zhong and his troops were the first to take the lead. Facing Guan Yu's desperate counterattack, they were caught off guard. The soldiers hardly formed an effective resistance. Then he was crushed.

Witnessing his subordinates being trampled and slashed wantonly by the enemy cavalry, although Huang Zhong was so angry that his eyes were tearing apart, he was not dazzled by the anger. Now that the soldiers were all thrown away, it was hard to recover, so Huang Zhong could only suppress his heart Furious, he led the rest of the people out of the battle to avoid their sharp edge.

Guan Yu led a hundred cavalry to sweep Huang Zhong's troops first, sprinting at full speed, and slammed into Liu Jingjun's cavalry head-on, ignoring the defeated soldiers scattered around.

"I am Guan Yunchang, and anyone who stands in my way will die!" Guan Yu boasted of his bravery, shouted his name, and charged with a spear. When he saw each other, he would kill one person first, then swung the spear left and right, and then killed two people. enemy.

Guan Yu is a well-known fierce general in the world, and in the battle of Yicheng not long ago, he beheaded Chu Fang, a famous general in Jingnan. He was the one who faced Guan Yu with the soldiers of Liu Jingjun. There are very few, and more people subconsciously choose to avoid it.

Guan Yu was so brave, as straight as a heavenly man, and the knights under his command also became more courageous.

Guan Yu took the lead and acted as the leader himself. He led a hundred cavalry to rampage in Liu Jing's army, breaking waves along the way, invincible.

However, after penetrating ten formations in a row, Guan Yu's charge inevitably slowed down. Firstly, Guan Yu's party was limited in number, and although he was brave, it was difficult to last. Second, Guan Yu had already killed Cai Sheng and Liu Liang. The left and right parts of the people are all elites, Guan Yu naturally can no longer show off his prestige as before.

Although the charge was blocked, the number of people who died at Guan Yu's hands increased sharply because Liu Jing's soldiers fought hard. Guan Yu slaughtered all the enemies who dared to stand in front of him like mowing grass.

Witnessing Guan Yu's display of supernatural power, Cai Sheng and Liu Liang were both shocked by each other's bravery and angry at the casualties of the soldiers.

"Kill!" Guan Yu was so strong that he stabbed straight with his spear, piercing the enemy's chest. The armor on his body was like paper, and it didn't protect him at all.

When Guan Yu was about to pull out the spear, he suddenly found that the tip of the spear was caught by the body of the enemy soldier, and it was difficult to pull it out for a while. To hold his divine power, it was cut into two pieces from the break.

Guan Yu has been in the army for many years and has extremely rich combat experience. I saw that he did not stop at all. He waved half of the spear shaft and smashed it heavily on the neck of another enemy.

Guan Yu was brave enough to break his spear, and he could turn a crisis into a turning point. He killed three people in a row, and he was like a god.

Guan Yugao stood on the horse, bumped the spear that was not in his hand, looked around proudly, and then looked at Cai Sheng and Liu Liang who were on the way. , there are many guards, no doubt he is General Liu Jingjun.

"Kill these two men, and the enemy will be defeated!" Guan Yu stared wide-eyed, rode his horse and spear, rushed towards Cai Sheng and Liu Liang, and shouted: "I am Guan Yunchang, who dares to fight me!"

Its momentum was like a fierce tiger descending the mountain, and its sound was like thunderclaps, shaking all directions. None of Liu Jing's soldiers dared to respond, even Cai Sheng and Liu Liang were shocked by Guan Yu's momentum.

At this time, the two realized the horror of facing Guan Yu. Although Chu Fang died at the hands of Guan Yu, Chu Fang had been wounded several times when he attacked Jiangling. .Looking at it now, it was a big mistake. Even if Chu Fang was not injured, he would definitely not be Guan Yu's opponent.

Feeling the violent heartbeat like a war drum, Cai Sheng took a deep breath. He was born as a street warrior.

Cai Shengyang said: "I am Cai Hongchao from Changsha, Guan Yu, come and die quickly!"

Liu Liang also regained his composure at this time, knowing that Guan Yu was no match for him, he hurriedly ordered his left and right sides to secretly prepare powerful crossbows, looking for an opportunity to shoot him.

Hearing Cai Sheng's self-reported name, Guan Yu was immediately overjoyed. Cai Sheng has always been as famous as Chu Fang, and both are generals under Liu Jing's command.

Guan Yu beheaded Chu Fang during the Battle of Yicheng, which directly led to the collapse of Liu Jingjun's left wing. If he can kill Cai Sheng this time, even if the pursuers don't collapse, they will be discouraged. It is no longer an extravagant hope to escape!

Thinking of this, Guan Yu's heart boiled with killing intent, and his eyes fixed on Cai Sheng. At this moment, Cai Sheng was the only one in his eyes.

Guan Yu stopped attacking immediately, and handed over all the enemies along the way to his left and right, while he silently accumulated strength so that when he faced Cai Sheng, he could kill him in one fell swoop.

Guan Yu was brave and righteous, and he was good at caring for soldiers, so he won the hearts of the people. Everyone risked their lives to fight, one after another, breaking through obstacles all the way, covering Guan Yu and rushing to Cai Sheng.

Facing Guan Yu who was as fierce as a tiger, Cai Sheng was not afraid at all, and he took the lead in striking, with the spear carrying a strong wind, directly poking at Guan Yu's face.

"die!"

Guan Yu raised his eyebrows and yelled, and shot out the spear in his hand. While swinging Cai Sheng's spear away, he took advantage of the situation and stabbed Cai Sheng's mount under the crotch.

The horse's neck was pierced by the spear point, and it screamed in pain. The man stood up, and Cai Sheng lost his balance and fell directly from the horse's back.

On the battlefield, the enemy and the enemy are intertwined, and there is me among you, and you among me. Once you fall off your horse, you will immediately become the target of public criticism. Ninety-nine out of ten people will be besieged to death.

Cai Sheng hit the ground heavily and was unable to get up for a while. Guan Yu was about to drive his horse forward to finish off the opponent, when suddenly someone beside him shouted: "General, be careful!" He blocked several crossbow arrows that were shot rapidly.

The person who blocked Guan Yu's hidden arrows was his subordinate athlete, who had been in love for many years and was incomparable to others. However, before Guan Yu could act, someone suddenly reminded him: "General, be careful!"

Although Guan Yu didn't know where the danger came from, his years of battlefield experience made him evade sideways like a conditioned reflex. However, he reacted quickly, and the hidden arrow from the side was faster, straight like lightning, and shot through his neck in an instant.
