Chapter 89 Encounter
Self-confidence is a good thing. With it, the success rate of many difficult things will increase a lot.

But too blind self-confidence is not a good thing.

On this point, history has repeatedly proved it, and the most famous prover is Zhao Kuo.

Just like Zhang Chun at this time, he believed that Liu Bei's ability to break through the counties in Zhongshan was nothing more than good luck.

I have to say that Zhang Chun's self-confidence is justified.

Since the rebellion with Zhang Juju, he has attacked cities and looted land wherever he went, and no one can stop him.At the same time, the young and strong were forced to join the army, and the soldiers under his command grew like a snowball. He also colluded with Wuhuan Lord Qiu Liju and formed an alliance.

All of a sudden, there was no second in the limelight, and nearly half of the entire Youzhou was brought under his command!
In contrast, Zhongshan County, which was the first to launch the rebellion, suffered the least damage.

It can be said that in the past few months, Zhang Chun has reached the pinnacle of his life, and his heart will inevitably swell.

Later, he even elected Zhang Ju as the emperor, and he himself named himself the King of Mitian Anding, and was given the title of Marshal Wuhuan of the Three Counties by Qiu Liju.

With the addition of many titles, Zhang Chun was completely lost.He believes that great things can be expected, and if this continues, he will be able to seal off the land and achieve some hegemony in a short time!
But at this time, Liu Bei regained the counties in Zhongshan, which was tantamount to slapping Zhang Chun on the face.

How can this be tolerated?
So Zhang Chun formed an alliance with Zhang Yan and promised Zhang Yan to send troops with money and food.

But who knew that Zhang Yan was so disappointing that he was defeated in less than half a month.

Fortunately, by the time Liu Bei took down the three counties, his own side had already finished rectification.Originally, he planned to defend the city and resist the imperial army, but these days he was rampant in Youzhou, causing Zhang Chun to think that the Han army was nothing more than that, so he decided to take the initiative to attack.

Therefore, Zhang Chun mobilized [-] elite soldiers to go south, and at the same time exercised his power as Marshal Wuhuan of the three counties, and dispatched [-] Wuhuan cavalry from Qiu Liju, and headed straight for Zhongshan.

Looking at the mighty army, Zhang Chun showed a smile on his face, and the anger in his heart also faded a lot.

Especially the five thousand Wuhuan cavalry led by Liang Yi Ta Dun gave him incomparable confidence.

After beating Liu Bei this time, it happened to be an example to the monkeys, so that the imperial court did not dare to continue to send troops. It will develop and operate with peace of mind for a few years, and it is unknown when it will send troops to attack the world!

At this time, Zhang Chun, just like Zhang Yan back then, was full of wishful thinking.

However, not long after, reality slapped him just as loudly!
Zhang Chunjun had just crossed Xushui, so he wanted to report from scouts ahead, saying that there was an army ten miles away, the number of which was probably no less than [-].

"Haha, this Liu Xuande came to the door by himself." Zhang Chun laughed loudly, "Send the order, the whole army speeds up, don't let that Liu Xuande run away!"

When Zhang Chun knew the location of Liu Beijun, Guan Yu had already received a report that Zhang Chun's army was rushing towards him, and the target was himself.

"Explore again!"

Guan Yu gave an order in a deep voice, and sent the report to Liu Bei and others who were in the Chinese army.

Faced with Zhang Chun's obvious offensive intention, Guan Yu understood that the distance of ten miles was approaching in an instant, and immediately ordered to stop the march and form an array on the spot to resist the opponent's attack.

Regarding battles, Guan Yu believed that he would not lose to anyone, but he never underestimated his opponents.So while he formed the formation, he asked Zhao Yun to lead his cavalry to retreat to the rear and wait for it. He first hid the sharp knife and ensured that it could be used at any time.

"Zi Chu had a clever plan, that Zhang Chun really came!"

In the Chinese army, Liu Bei received an order and saw that Guan Yu had already started forming an formation, so he spoke to everyone.

"As soon as we come, we will start fighting. In the past few months, our army has been attacking cities and pulling out strongholds. We haven't really fought a single encounter. This time, we will see how the pure color is."

Lin Chao replied with a smile, quite confident.

With Guan Zhangzhao's commanding ability, how could he not be able to defeat Zhang Chun when his troops are superior!
"My lord, don't worry, what Zichu said is true." Tian Feng also echoed, "Most of Zhang Thief's subordinates are young and strong, and most of them are unwilling to join the war. Just defeat them head-on once, and Zhang Chun will regain his morale. Discrete, nothing to worry about."

Not only Tian Feng, but Xun Chen also nodded in agreement, saying that Zhang Chun was nothing to worry about.

Liu Bei wasn't afraid of Zhang Chun at all, but when he saw that the three of them were talking like this, his confidence immediately increased, and he also felt that Zhang Chun was vulnerable, so he ordered the whole army to prepare for the battle.

When Guan Yu finished forming his formation, he happened to see a black crowd rising slowly on the distant horizon, accompanied by the sound of horseshoes, and even the ground trembled slightly.

"Good come!"

Guan Yu's normally squinted eyes had already opened, and the strong fighting intent in them almost overflowed, his voice was deep and deep, but it carried an incomparable killing intent.

At the same time, Zhang Chun also noticed that Guan Yu was waiting for him in the distance, but he showed a disdainful smile.

"Send the order, the infantry move forward, break through the formation and kill the enemy!"

Although Zhang Chun is swollen, he is not stupid.

Guan Yu's formation in front of him was extremely strong, and the Wuhuan cavalry had no armor, and they would die in vain if they charged forward. It is better to let the infantry go ahead and tear a hole in the formation first, and then let the cavalry charge up to divide Liu Bei's army.

Woo!
When the horn sounded, the infantry under Zhang Chun's command held spears and rushed towards Guan Yubu's defense line step by step.

At this time, the importance of daily training is revealed.

Guan Yu's four thousand elites were trained like arms and fingers by him, making them move like a mountain.In the face of local attacks, the soldiers did not panic at all, showing the qualities that an elite should have.

The crossbowmen behind were already on the string, waiting for Guan Yu's order.

Behind the shield soldiers are soldiers holding spears, and behind them are crossbowmen, and those wrapped inside are fighters who are good at melee combat.

This is the formation that Guan Yu is best at. As long as it is commanded properly, it will be as stable as a rock.

If the enemy army wants to attack, it will lose part of it after entering the range of the bow and arrow. At the same time, the rain of arrows can also slow down the momentum of the enemy army's attack.

With the tactics of this era, it is difficult to break through Guan Yu's formation.

When the enemy's attack was blocked and his energy was lost, Guan Yu withdrew the defense in the front row, and the fighters in the middle who were recharging their energy could charge out and complete the final harvest.

In particular, after receiving the spy report and learning that the opponent had thousands of cavalry, Guan Yu transferred all the transport vehicles from the general's escort for food and grass, and formed another line of defense in front of the shield.

This time, another layer of tortoise shell was added to the army under his command, which can be described as impenetrable.

The hooves of the horses resounded,

The trumpets sound low and desolate,
The ground is shaking!
The army under Zhang Chun rushed towards the front army led by Guan Yu like a torrent.
