Xiaoguangong

Chapter 420
On both sides of the Yellow River, all the Xianbei soldiers also knew that it was time for life and death.

If they can successfully cross the river, they will launch an attack by virtue of their absolute superiority in numbers. The number of Han troops on the other side is too small to stop their iron hooves.

But if they fail to cross the river, the best result for them is to leave with a lot of money and lose the chance to dominate the Huahua World in the Central Plains.

Rumbling drums sounded, and more and more ferries began to move forward, sending a large number of troops across the Yellow River non-stop, and began to transfer to the battlefield.

Guan Ping's army also gradually moved from Luoyang to the Yellow River. On the huge and wide battlefield, blood and human bodies trampled by war horses could be seen everywhere.

A battle that will dominate the next few decades or even a hundred years has finally begun. Guan Ping raised the steel knife in his hand and walked forward without hesitation. Looking at Ma Dai who retreated from the front line, he seemed to have a premonition of something.

"Where are General Ma and General Pang?" He asked Ma Dai slowly.

Ma Dai shook his head lightly and sighed:
"My brother and Ling Ming have already decided to fight to the death to stop the bandit army from going south. During the fierce battle, several generals were beheaded, and the bandits were defeated, but...but neither my brother nor Ling Ming came back."

Guan Ping nodded, his heart trembling slightly.

Not only him, but all the generals in Guan Ping's army felt a wave of sadness in their hearts.

Ma Chao in Xiliang suffered countless disasters in his life, which brought great disaster to the big man, but at the last moment of his life, he leaped forward without hesitation, died with the powerful enemy, and desperately blocked the advance of the enemy army.

The Hu Qi who crossed the river before were in chaos, and many of them had left the team and ran to looting somewhere.

But with the death of Ma Chao and the disappearance of those who resisted their advance, these Hu cavalry began to gather again, and they were about to form a powerful torrent to attack again.

Now, it's Guan Ping's turn.

"I might die too." Guan Ping said briefly, "If you die in battle, you may not be able to find your own bones. If the generals have any unfinished wishes, you can report back to Luoyang first. There is no need to die with me. .”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone's heart trembled.

They knew that Guan Ping was ready to die.

At present, the defense of Luoyang City cannot be prepared for a while. If so many enemies rush to the city calmly, it will be a huge catastrophe for the people of the Central Plains.

Ma Chao was willing to risk his life to stop these enemies, so Guan Ping certainly couldn't fall behind Ma Chao.

"I'm the long history of the general, and I haven't had many opportunities to fight side by side with the general for so many years.

This time, I am willing to fight together with the general to create a bright future for future generations! "Although Sima Fu is a philistine, he is actually ready to advance and retreat with Guan Ping this time.

After all, he was from a family in the Central Plains, and he knew that he should die loyally for those who supported him. This is the basic ethics of a scholar.

Not just him.

Guan Ping turned his head and saw that the generals behind him had already rushed to him.

Guo Huai, who came from Guanzhong to join him, arrived, as did Xia Houba and Cao Zhi.

Further away, Huang Zhong and Wei Yan had already arrived.

Although everyone could feel that this battle might be a death battle with no return, they still appeared on the battlefield without hesitation.

Even...there were soldiers and horses of Wei Jun in the crowd.

These soldiers of the Wei army have long been unwilling to continue to go crazy with Cao Pi. Xianbei soldiers breaking through Youzhou and Jizhou will inevitably cause even greater disasters.

Zhang Yun had never participated in the battle of defending the city before, but this time he finally led Luoyang's few defenders out, and under Huang Zhong's command, they all appeared on the battlefield.

"The enemy is outnumbered, see me open the way for the whole army, kill one general first!"

Guan Ping did not give the Xianbei army a chance to regroup.

He personally rode his horse and rushed to the enemy's line, joining the death fight without hesitation.

Following his charge, the Han army who had just ended the Battle of Luoyang also threw a rain of arrows at the enemy, and then began to charge!
The Xianbei army had been shattered by Ma Chao before, but now they finally regrouped. Seeing that Guan Ping led the crowd to kill again, there was another chaos in the army.

Cao Xiu waved the steel knife and roared angrily:

"What are you panicking about?! Ma Chao is dead! Guan Ping is nothing!

Come with me!Chop 'em all into a meat sauce! "

"Don't you guys want money! Do you want women! Kill them, and you'll have everything in front of you!"

"Could it be that if you stagnate like this on the grassland, someone will give you everything for nothing?

How can there be such a good thing!Kill, kill them all! "

Cao Xiu's hoarse roar really boosted the morale of the whole army.

The Xianbei soldiers also saw that there were few Han soldiers, and intensive charges could hardly pose a threat.

They calmed down a little, and opened their bows one after another, and the rain of arrows shot at the Han army's formation wildly.

At this moment, Yan Rou has also recovered her composure.

He did not directly order his subordinates to attack, but let the Xianbei army protect Cao Xiu, and personally commanded the soldiers to cross the river.

They all know that the key to victory lies in whether the Xianbei army can cross the river. As long as 5 or [-] people can cross the river, it will be difficult for the Han army to stop them. They will sweep the Central Plains with faster horses and more accurate arrows. All kneel before their knives.

Come on, let you kill, no matter how sharp Guan Ping's knife is, so what?

I see how you can kill all these Xianbei warriors crossing the river one by one!
Guan Ping braved the rain of arrows to charge. He was merciless in his shots. His abundant physical strength and fierce swordsmanship were unstoppable, and he quickly cut a bloody path in the enemy's formation, cutting people off their feet.

But the more he slashed, the more enemies around him continued to flow, and there were more and more massive troops.

The Xianbei army also saw that even if these Han people could fight, they were limited in number after all.

As long as the forwards stand up, they can completely engulf them by virtue of their numbers.

When their horses are full, the soldiers will put on the bow and arrow armor of the Wei army. These Han people will be swept away by them directly, and this colorful world in the Central Plains will belong to them forever!

"Kill! Protect General Cao!"

There are so many Xianbei soldiers who are not afraid of death, Guan Ping rushes from left to right, no matter what, he can't get into the crowd of the enemy army.

If you can kill Cao Xiu, the situation can be reversed in an instant, but so many people...

How could it be impossible to pass through the interception of so many people and kill Cao Xiu in front of him!

Cao Xiu also saw Guan Ping's intentions.

Although he is not afraid of Guan Ping at all, he knows that the battlefield is changing rapidly, and as a commander, he can't be impulsive.

As long as all the Xianbei troops landed, Guan Ping would have no choice but to retreat. At that time, with the advantage of the cavalry, his side would be able to pay back double the losses they had now.

I want to see how long you, Guan Ping, can persist!
"Cao Xiu, it belongs to a man, why don't you come out and fight with me!"

Guan Ping shouted loudly, calling Cao Xiu to fight.

Cao Xiu was unhurried and did not make a sound to reveal his position. He calmly watched Guan Ping gradually exhausted in the crowd, and could only start to retreat gradually.

There is no way, people's physical strength will always be exhausted.

During the fierce battle just now, he was shot by four arrows, and the arrows pierced through the armor on his body. Guan Ping was so painful that he almost passed out several times. Now the blood on his body is flowing more and more, and the enemy is killing him more and more. Come on, even though Guan Ping had experienced many battles, he still felt a great sense of despair.

Can't resist anymore...

He looked back and saw that everyone on his side was gradually unable to support.

Sima Fu and Cao Zhi's martial arts were very weak, and they were forced to retreat to the formation after rushing several times, while the Xianbei army was not dispersed by their own side, and calm was gradually restored under Cao Xiu's command.

They stood in formation, arrows rained down, and the casualties of the Han army continued to expand. If they couldn't break through the enemy's formation, all the generals who followed him would die here.

"The general will go first, and the last will be the queen!"

Guo Huai thought that his hometown might have been ravaged by Xianbei, and he was already prepared to die.

He killed so much that his whole body was soaked in blood, his arms were so painful that he couldn't straighten up, but he still didn't want to retreat.

He also knew that if he retreated, the people behind the palace would be chased and killed by countless cavalrymen who had just crossed the river, and they would definitely be trampled into meat paste.

But as a man from the north, Guo Huai knew the cruelty of Xianbei best.

He wiped the blood from his face, smiled and said:

"Don't worry, general. They are just some barbarians from the north. I have seen too many in my life. After I kill them all, I will meet the general myself."

Guan Ping clenched the steel knife in his hand, and made a quick judgment.

"Leave, gentlemen, I will be the rear guard with General Guo!"

If Guan Ping also ran away, and Hu Qi rolled up the bead curtain, even the friendly troops near Luoyang might be wiped out in an instant.

Guan Ping knew that he must not withdraw.

But he didn't leave, and those who came with him didn't want to leave either.

Although their own losses are getting bigger and bigger, they still insist on fighting, and they are absolutely unwilling to leave for a while.

Seeing this, Cao Xiu sneered in his heart:
"Guan Ping, if you don't want to leave, don't leave! I will kill all of you this time!"
