Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Lu Bu was mistaken for his father-in-law

Chapter 274 Chapter 273: Taking the head of the general from the crowd of thousands of troops

Zhang Nan and Jiao Chu led an army of [-] men and marched swaggeringly on the Binhai Road at a very slow speed.

Firstly, it was because it was the rainy season and the coastal road was bumpy and muddy, making it difficult to travel; secondly, they did not forget that the purpose of their trip was to attract the attention of the Wuhuan army as a suspect.

This trick was very effective. Even if it was a simple attack, Tadun didn't notice it.

Of course, this could not be said to be entirely due to Tadun's ignorance of the art of war. It was really hard for him to imagine that anyone would walk through that no-man's land that had been abandoned for 200 years.

Therefore, after getting the first-hand news, Tadun immediately sent Qiao King Su Puyan and Hanlu King Wuyan to lead an army of [-] tribes to Jieshi to counter the Lu army.

After Qiu Liju's death, Tadun took over the position of Chanyu. King Su Puyan of Qiao and Wuyan of Hanlu both commanded more than [-] tribesmen, and could draw tens of thousands of people to fight at any time. This shows that Tadun was very powerful. The importance attached to the fight against Lu Jun this time.

On the other side, Zhao Yun's ten thousand troops, led by Tian Chou, overcame obstacles and built the damaged plank road. Even if they traveled lightly, it took them 37 days to successfully cross the Yanshan Mountains, pass through the Mobei Desert, and return to the group. Between the mountains we came to the border of Youbeiping.

Although their actions were sufficiently concealed, they could not resist the fact that Wuhuan also had nomadic habits. There was still nearly two hundred miles across Liucheng, so Tadun learned about their movements.

This time, Tadun was scared enough. You must know that the [-] troops of Qiao King Su Puyan and Hanlu King Wuyan were [-] miles away. In addition, the mountain roads were rugged. Even if they sent fast horses to ask for help, when they came back, , this Liucheng has probably been breached three times.

Damn Lu Jun, how could he suddenly appear in Pinggang City, which is more than 200 miles away? I can't understand it, I can't understand it!
When he found out that the visitors only had [-] riders, he couldn't help but laugh at himself in his heart for being so messed up.

Maybe there are more than [-] Lu Jun coming, but he only has so many forwards. As long as this wave of forward troops is eaten, the morale of the Chinese army will be greatly damaged, so just go back to where you came from.

Although King Su Puyan of Qiao and King Wuyan of Hanlu took away the [-] Liucheng capital troops, the advantages of Wuhuan's social system were reflected at this moment. They had many tribes, and they only needed to summon a group of young men from each tribe immediately. , you can easily build a cavalry force of ten thousand people, and each one has strong combat power.

Anyway, they were still far away from him, so Tadun immediately took action.

After all, it was Wuhuan Chanyu, and his appeal was still very strong. With just one order, 4000 people rushed over that day, and all of them were cavalry, either holding crossbows or spears.

The gathering force continued, and by the next morning, there were more than 8000 people. Including his own personal guards, the army totaled 1.

Logically speaking, the best choice at this time is to wait for work and ambush around Liucheng. When Lu Jun appears, he can surprise them and catch them off guard.

But Wuhuan never understood the art of war. He only knew how to take life and death lightly and act if he didn't accept it. Therefore, Tadun led 1 people and rushed towards Pinggang City.

In the end, like the wheel of history, Lu Jun was blocked at the foot of Bailang Mountain.

On the hillside of Bailang Mountain, looking at the vast Wuhuan army below, even Yan Liang and Wen Chou were a little uneasy, let alone the other cavalry.

Even though they followed Lu Bu and fought bloody battles from Bingzhou to Guanzhong, from Puyang to Xuzhou, and even killed the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry in half of the Han territory, they couldn't help but swallow their saliva at this moment.

The situation is not good. We only have [-] cavalry, but Wuhuan has no less than [-] cavalry by visual inspection. They are armed with either spears or crossbows. There is a huge disparity in strength between the enemy and ourselves.

Furthermore, the other side was well prepared to fight, but our own Chinese army was still behind. Only the [-] forward cavalry were surrounded by Bailang Mountain. They were isolated and helpless and could not fight for a long time. The morale of the army was turbulent, but it was also It makes sense.

"Brother, the Marquis made a miscalculation this time. I don't think Zhang Nan and Jiao Chu attracted many Wuhuan troops!" Yan Liang said with a frown.

Wen Chou said nothing and only carefully observed the situation at the bottom of the mountain, as if looking for an opportunity to take advantage of.

At present, in addition to Man Chong holding down the formation at the central army, Guo Huai and Hao Zhao, who had just entered Lu Camp, were also following in the forward camp.

If Guo Huai followed his father to guard the border at Yanmen Pass and fought against the Xianbei and the Xiongnu, it would be okay to be able to remain calm in the face of such a disparity. However, as a fledgling general, Hao Zhao could also be calm and composed, which is quite surprising. Yan Liang was a little surprised. It seemed that he had chosen the wrong person this time.

"It's not Yunwen's miscalculation. You don't know. I fought with Wuhuan when I was under General Gongsun in the past, and I have a good understanding of their habits."

Zhao Yun looked down the mountain and muttered: "In addition to following the Wang Ting army beside Tadun, Wuhuan also gathered young men from various tribes when they went south to plunder. Each of their tribes has a leader, called 'Sir', as long as With a single order, the lord can assemble hundreds or even thousands of cavalry.

I guess the Wang Ting army around Tadun should have been attracted by Zhang Nan and the others. These are probably soldiers and horses that Tadun summoned from various tribes. You see, although they are large in number, they have no military appearance at all. "

After hearing Zhao Yun's analysis, everyone felt that it made sense again.

"However, there is a huge disparity in strength between the enemy and ours. We can only defeat the enemy by beheading the generals, seizing the flag, and capturing the thieves before the king." After careful observation, Wen Chou came to this conclusion.

The Wuhuan at the foot of the mountain were all cavalry. Although their appearance was not uniform, their numbers were there. In addition, the Wuhuan were good at fighting. It was almost impossible to break through their formation and cause a rout.

Even if they are as elite as the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, if they confront these ten thousand cavalry head-on, they will all be eaten by the opponent within five rounds.

"Is that Tadun?"

Yan Liang pointed to a man in the depths of the army who was riding a war horse, burly, covered in tiger skin, with a fat face and a beard, holding a spear in his hand, "It's too far to rush through. Look, There are 8000 to 3000 people in front of him, and there are [-] to [-] people beside him, how can he rush through!"

Not to mention Yan Liang, even Zhao Yun, who was able to move freely among thousands of Cao's troops at Xiao Pass, felt that he really couldn't get close.

After all, the Wuhuan army in front of them can use spears in close combat, and cavalry and archery from a distance. Once they rush into the formation, they may even become disoriented.

At the foot of the mountain, Wuhuan's cavalry were shouting, horns were sounding one after another, and they were mumbling some unintelligible words, which were obviously not good words.

But it seems that they are not ready to rush up the mountain. After all, the cavalry needs to gallop in the wilderness to exert its power.

The problem is that now they urgently need to find a way to break the situation.

In terms of pure state of mind, not to mention the courageous Zhao Zilong, even Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Guo Huai and Hao Zhao are not afraid. But this is not a place for individuals to show off their strength. They came with a mission, not only to protect the people under them. The group of cavalry, and more importantly, was to defeat this Wuhuan cavalry, occupy Liucheng, and finally join forces with Zhang Nan and Jiao Chu's [-] troops to completely take over the three counties of Wuhuan.

"Zilong, if Yan Liang and I lead a thousand cavalry into the enemy formation to attract attention, and you lead five hundred cavalry to attack Tadun from the flanks, as long as Tadun dies, the enemy army will be in chaos!" Wen Chou gave his own opinion .

"No, it's too risky."

Zhao Yun shook his head, "Even if you brothers join forces, I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on for long with just Qianqi."

The disorderly formation of the army proves that they do not know the art of war; the fact that these Wuhuan cavalrymen come from different tribes shows that they cannot stand still.

After carefully observing the Wuhuan cavalry and analyzing it in his mind, Zhao Yun had an idea.

That is, all Wuhuan's cavalry must be mobilized to get them out of Tadun's control. When the flaw is finally exposed, he will kill them with one more blow!

After discussing the plan with several people, Zhao Yun did not take immediate action. Instead, he turned around and faced the [-] Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry.

In fact, this so-called Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry is no longer exactly the cavalry that Lu Bu brought out from Bingzhou.

In the past few years, nearly half of the people were killed in battles and expeditions, and some people were selected from the elites of various ministries and the soldiers of the Northern Kingdom to supplement them.

The oath before the war is still necessary.

"brothers!"

Zhao Yun held a bright silver spear in one hand and reins in the other, sitting on the jade lion, his white cloak rustling, "Below are more than 1 Wuhuan cavalry. There is a huge disparity between the enemy and our forces in this battle, but no matter how great the disparity is, the big one will Have you ever compared Zhang Wenyuan's eight hundred to thirty thousand under Guangling City in the past?
Wen Yuan was a true hero. With [-] elite troops, he broke through Sun Quan's [-] Jiangdong Army and beheaded Sun Quan.

Today, here, at the foot of Bailang Mountain, Yun is honored to work with you to recreate the miracle under Guangling City. One thousand and five hundred cavalry will not only defeat the more than 1 Wuhuan, but also behead Tadun. You are willing to follow. I'll fight! "

"I'm willing! I'm willing! I'm willing!"

Whether he was the savior at Xiaoguan City, or showing his power on the Taihang Mountains, killing Xiahou Dun in formation, Zhao Yun had gradually grown from a general in the army to a commander-in-chief, at least with some edge.

Therefore, his words were not as cohesive as Lu Bu, Lin Mo and Zhang Liao in the army, but they gave great encouragement to the soldiers.

Furthermore, even though Lin Mo was a master in using troops, even his opponent Cao Cao couldn't help but praise the existence that one person can be a million troops, but in the minds of the soldiers, the battle of Liao Shen's eight hundred defeating thirty thousand seemed to have more impact. .

Today, Zhao Yun wants to repeat the myth of the past, which can be regarded as completely arousing the passion in the hearts of the soldiers.

"Let's go!" Seeing that the momentum was rising, Wen Chou shouted, and he and Yan Liang each led [-] cavalry and rushed down the mountain.

They divided their troops into two groups, with Guo Huai and Hao Zhao on each side, shooting out like two sharp arrows.

At the bottom of the mountain, Tadun, who was surrounded by cavalry at the rear, was a little shocked when he saw this scene. He was thinking about how to force the people down the mountain, and why the other party dared to charge in the opposite direction.

Why, the lives of Han people are really so worthless, right? "Fire the arrows!" Seeing that the distance was approaching, the 'adults' at the front of the group began to announce their strength.

The Wuhuan, Xianbei, Qiang, and Xiongnu are all known to be people on horseback. They have been skilled in bowing and horseback since childhood. They can shoot arrows even on galloping horses, let alone being stationary now.

Fifty steps away, arrows rained down, forcing Yan Liang, Wen and Chou's two cavalry groups to move in a snake-like position to avoid them. At first glance, it looked a bit awkward, and they made Tadun burst into laughter.

This is a major advantage of the Wuhuan military system. They can send orders to the "adults" of each tribe at any time, asking them to gather their troops and horses. When fighting, they can command their own tribes skillfully and do not even need to step. Don't worry about it.

This feeling is a bit like sitting back and enjoying the results.

Two rounds of arrows rained down. Even though Lu Jun was extremely careful in his position, he could not stop the arrows from flying like rain, but he was still shot down by dozens of riders.

However, it can be regarded as a chance for them to get close to each other. Yan Liangwen Chou led hundreds of cavalry behind him like a dragon head.

Wuhuan's army also reacted very quickly, but when they saw that they were getting closer and the arrows had no effect, the cavalry behind them with spears pressed up to confront them.

Yan Liang, who was leading the way, swung his golden-backed sword and made a round of Yanyue picks from bottom to top. After knocking off the leading cavalry, he pushed the long sword and pierced another Wuhuan cavalry.

The more than 500 Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry behind them waved their spears in their hands, moving like the wind, killing the enemy on sight, not even focusing on defense, only trying to attack, with a great attitude of exchanging lives for lives.

"This group of Han troops has good fighting power, even if they are defeated by our shaman warriors."

After the battle between the two sides, it can be seen with the naked eye that it was actually a [-]-[-] fight. Wuhuan was killed, but Lu Jun's cavalry also suffered a lot of losses.

However, this result was what Tadun wanted to see. Just when he was feeling proud, a strange scene appeared on the battlefield.

It stands to reason that with such a charging method, they must have crashed into the encirclement of the Wuhuan army. By then, even one person would be able to drown this group of Han troops.

But after breaking through the first group of cavalry, the two cavalry broke away from contact on the flanks and ran wildly in the opposite direction of Bailang Mountain.

Immediately afterwards, a fatal problem arose. Some people advocated that the spear cavalry should pursue the pursuit quickly, while others advocated that the cavalry and archers should fire their arrows faster. The 'adults' of these tribes each issued different battle orders, causing the Wuhuan cavalry to be at a loss as to what to do. Some people want to retreat, and some people want to rush forward. Just one face-to-face encounter, and the army is in chaos.

The tribal military system that Tadun was proud of allowed each tribe to fight independently without him having to direct them one by one. However, when the battle situation was unexpected by everyone, there was a situation of inconsistent command. How could the army not be in disarray?

Seeing the more than a thousand cavalry on the opposite side divided into two groups and rushing on the flanks, confusing his own army of ten thousand people, they were furious and shouted desperately, "Archers, hold your ground, spearmen." Chase!"

However, in such a battle circle, with smoke and dust billowing, people shouting and horses neighing, Tadun's voice was immediately drowned out.

Of course, it would not be possible for Yan Liangwen Chou to disintegrate the army in such a rush, but at least it confirmed that Zhao Yun's guess was correct.

With such confidence, the two of them were like flying kites to fish for Wuhuan's cavalry, always keeping a stone's throw away, giving people a feeling of "I can catch up with them and shoot them immediately" Feel.

So much so that after running back and forth in the battle circle for three times, he had long forgotten all military matters. He even had the urge to lose the battle and the cavalry in front of him must die, and the army was completely mobilized.

At this time, two groups of men, Yan Liang, Wen and Chou, were wandering away with more than 8000 Wuhuan. There were only more than 2000 people left beside Tadun. He gritted his teeth in anger but was helpless.

This would never be like this if Wang Tingjun was by his side.

"Brothers, follow me down the mountain and take Tadun's head!" Seeing that the time was right, Zhao Yun tightened the reins and the jade lion leaped high, dived and ran away.

Behind him, three hundred wolf cavalry followed closely, kicking up billows of smoke and dust.

"Scoff" Tadun looked disdainful. Although he didn't know much about the art of war in the Central Plains, he still knew what the other side wanted to do. It was just to attract the army away and then break through the Chinese army.

But with just two or three hundred people, don’t we take the warriors of our tribe seriously?

What's more, Wang Tingjun was following him.

"Warriors, pick up your spears and eat this Han army!"

Tadun gave an order, and the more than 2000 cavalrymen beside him let out ghostly screams, acted upon the order, and charged towards Zhao Yun.

The silver saddle shines on the white horse, rustling like shooting stars.

Zhao Yun held the bright silver spear tightly in his right hand and the green sword in his left hand. He rushed into the enemy's formation first, but saw that his spear was like a dragon and his sword flashed like a sharp knife directly cutting through the oncoming cavalry.

Wuhuan's cavalry can be said to be brave and good at fighting, but Zhao Yun went deep into it alone, using both spears and swords. No one could get close. All he saw was blood like splashing ink, wailings, and the sound of falling horses.

Zhao Yun, one man and one horse, wreaked havoc in the army like chopping melons and vegetables, doing whatever he wanted.

This feeling was far more satisfying than when he was under Xiaoguan City. At least now, he didn't need to worry about who to save. Anyone who dared to appear in front of him could be slaughtered.

Three hundred wolf cavalry came over in a flying goose formation, aiming at the hole opened by Zhao Yun, and constantly provoked the oncoming Wuhuan cavalry.

In the distance, Tadun stepped on the saddle and straightened his body to get a closer look, but all he saw was smoke and dust, and he couldn't figure out what was going on inside.

By the time he saw clearly, Zhao Yun had already rushed out covered in blood. The formation of the wolf cavalry behind him was incomplete, and he thought that part of it was damaged.

In a normal cavalry charge, after the fight is over, each other turns their horses around and then carries out the second round of charge.

But Zhao Yun did not slow down and rushed straight towards Tadun. For a moment, Tadun was a little stunned.

"Death!" As the Wuhuan Chanyu who ruled the three counties, Tadun was not a soft persimmon. He picked up his spear and charged towards Zhao Yun with the remaining [-] cavalry.

He was Tadun, a Chanyu of the Wuhuan tribe. He had not even been afraid of Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao for many years, so why should he be afraid of a mere general.

Right in the middle!

This is what Zhao Yun wants, a face-to-face charge, as long as Tadun is killed, the battle will be won!

The two sides were approaching, and smoke and dust were everywhere. Zhao Yun could only see Ta Dun. He put away the green sword, and when he was a foot away, he exerted force with both hands, and stabbed Ta Dun straight in the chest with the bright silver spear.

Tadun's martial arts skills were not as good as those of Zhao Yun, but he was capable enough to serve as a Shanyu in a tribe like Wuhuan that relied on martial arts to become king. He swung his spear and opened the bright silver spear.

In just a moment, Zhao Yun felt Ta Dun's strange power. The bright silver gun used its light weight to hold back his horse, but he never thought that Ta Dun's strength was really amazing. He could forcibly get rid of the bright silver gun. bondage.

At the moment when the horse was wrong, Zhao Yun leaned back, made a plan to turn back the carbine, and nodded with the phoenix, the bright silver spear formed an arc, and the tip of the spear pressed down and stabbed Tadun's back.

Tadun looked like he had eyes on his back, and his body also leaned back, and the bright silver gun missed an iron bridge.

Oops, once he joins the group of cavalry, it will be difficult to kill him!

Zhao Yun supported the saddle with his palms, and with force, he rotated 180 degrees and rode the jade lion upside down. He then held the bright silver spear horizontally, aimed at Tadun's back, and threw it suddenly.

On the battlefield filled with smoke and dust, the bright silver spear turned into a white streak. However, Tadun straightened his body and the horse slowly stopped. He lowered his head with difficulty and saw that the tip of the spear penetrated from his back to his chest, and blood flowed along the gun. Tips dripping.

how come.
how is this possible
He wanted to turn his head and look at Zhao Yun. He wanted to know how the other party did it.

However, all the strength in his body was constantly draining away, and he was even unable to support him from continuing to sit on the saddle, and he fell straight off the horse.

At this moment, the noise on the noisy battlefield suddenly stopped. Apart from the heavy breathing of the war horses, only a few sounds of front hooves digging into the ground could be heard.

Everyone stared blankly at Tadun on the ground. Shanyu, whom they regarded as a mighty and undefeated man, died in just one round?
They were in a daze, but Zhao Yun did not stop. He galloped forward, drew back his bright silver spear, and slashed it towards the ground. Tadun's head was separated from his body, and then he lifted Tadun's head.

There is no need to shout that the general is dead and that those who surrender will not be killed. They will not understand.

But the more than 100 wolf riders behind them were all shouting excitedly, "We must win! We must win! We must win!"

"The Chanyu is dead. The Chanyu is dead!" the Wuhuan cavalry roared in horror. No one thought that this cavalry of less than 200 people could be bullied. On the contrary, they were even afraid to look at Zhao Yun and clamped their legs together desperately. Escape from the scene by grabbing the horse's belly.

Zhao Yun looked at Tadun in his hand and breathed heavily, Yunwen, I did it.
