The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 105 Chapter 105
Zhang Yan and Chen Qun returned to the State Shepherd's Mansion together, and Chen Qun also told Zhang Yan the ins and outs of the matter along the way.

It turned out that Yuan Shao, the shepherd of Jizhou, had not been idle for the past few months. In order to recapture Nanpi occupied by Gongsun Zan, Yuan Shao personally led a large army to the city of Nanpi. After a fierce battle with Gongsun Zan, Yuan Shao finally conquered Nanpi , and re-occupied Bohai County, while Gongsun Zan fled back to Youzhou in embarrassment under the protection of Zhao Yun and others.

Yuan Shao then appointed his eldest son, Yuan Tan, as the governor of Qingzhou, and led a victorious army to take Qingzhou. , headed towards Qingzhou mightily all the way.

Tian Kai, the governor of Qingzhou appointed by Gongsun Zan, stationed troops in Linzi. When he heard that Yuan Tan was leading an army to attack, he led [-] troops out of the city to fight, intending to ambush Yuan Tan.

When Liu Bei, who was attached to Tian Kai, heard the news, he advised Tian Kai not to go out to fight in the city, but to stick to the city, but Tian Kai refused to listen and insisted on leading troops to ambush Yuan Tan.

As a result, Tian Kai and Le'an failed to ambush Yuan Tan, but were surrounded by Yuan Tan and beheaded by Yuan Jun's general Yan Liang. Most of the rest of the troops surrendered to Yuan Jun.

Liu Bei learned that Tian Kai's army and Yuan Tan were coming towards Linzi, so he didn't dare to stay long, so he fled eastward with his old troops, and went to seek refuge with Kong Rong, the Prime Minister of Beihai.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Tan occupied Linzi and came to attack Beihai again. Kong Rong insisted on not fighting, and was forced to let Liu Bei's younger brother Zhang Fei break out of the encirclement and go to Xuzhou for help.

In the hall of the State Shepherd's Mansion, Zhang Fei was pacing anxiously, burning with anxiety.

Zhang Yan came in from the outside of the hall, and when he saw Zhang Fei, he hastily cupped his hands and said, "Brother Zhang, are you all right?"

When Zhang Fei saw Zhang Yan coming, he bowed first, and then hurriedly said: "My lord, I am here this time to ask for something important. I am here on behalf of Kong Rong, Prime Minister of Beihai. This is a letter from Mr. Kong." , please show Lord Jun a look!"

Zhang Yan took a letter from Zhang Fei, read it hastily, and said, "When Xuzhou was in danger, Kong Beihai worked tirelessly to help him. Now that Kong Beihai is in trouble, how can I ignore death? Brother Zhang, you have worked hard all the way, and you are here to rest, I will send troops to rescue Beihai in a short while."

Zhang Feixi smiled, clasped his fists and said, "It's really great that Mr. Zhang is willing to send troops to rescue him. I'm here to thank Mr. Zhang for Kong Beihai!"

Zhang Yan asked Chen Qun to send Zhang Fei down to rest first, and then asked people to order soldiers and horses, prepare food, grass, and supplies, and asked Zhang Hong to go out with him.

After Zhang Hong heard the news, he immediately rectified and waited for Zhang Yan's order at any time.

An hour later, after the allocation of food, grass and supplies, Zhang Yan took the iron cavalry and the second battalion of armored soldiers and horses, and set off from Pengcheng to Qingzhou with Zhang Hong as his military adviser.

Zhang Fei frowned when he saw that Zhang Yan had only [-] soldiers and horses. He rode up to Zhang Yan and asked, "Mr. But he only brought eight thousand soldiers, isn't that a little too little?"

Zhang Yan said with a smile: "It's not about the number, it's about the quality. These eight thousand cavalry are the elites I personally trained, and they are also the elites of the entire Xuzhou army. I will bring this elite soldiers and horses to support, and I will definitely give Yuan Jun Dismount!"

Zhang Fei was skeptical, and it was inconvenient to say anything more, but in his heart, he still felt that the number of people was too small.

During the march, none of the [-] soldiers wore armor. All the armor was placed on the baggage cart and pulled by mules and horses.In this way, the burden on the soldiers can be reduced, and the soldiers can walk many more miles every day when they are marching.

However, this is still a bit slow for the anxious Zhang Fei.In the end, Zhang Fei couldn't bear it anymore, and wanted to leave Zhang Yan's army first, and go back to send a letter to Kong Beihai.

After Zhang Fei left, Zhang Yan took this newly trained bodyguard army, accelerated the marching speed, and headed for Qingzhou in a forced march.

Two days later, Zhang Yan's army successfully arrived at the junction of Langya Kingdom and Beihai Kingdom, and encountered Sun Qian who was resettling refugees in Langya Kingdom.

Before entering the Beihai Kingdom, he encountered thousands of refugees coming from Qingzhou. Zhang Yan asked about the situation in Beihai by the way, and only then did he know that the county where Prime Minister Beihai was located had been captured by Yuan Jun, and Kong Rong was in Liu Bei. Under the protection of Guan Yu, he led the remnant soldiers and fled to Zhuxu County.

Zhang Yan asked Sun Gan to resettle the refugees, while he continued to lead the army to Beihai.

On the eighth day of July, in the evening, the city wall of Zhuxu County in Beihai Kingdom was already blood-stained red, forming a perfect unity with the fiery red clouds in the western sky.

On the city wall, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei were resisting desperately, but Yuan Jun's soldiers were attacking the city bravely. One ladder was knocked down, and another was erected, and Yuan Bing climbed up the city wall continuously.

Kong Rong, Prime Minister of Beihai, went to the city to command Mao Shishi, but was shot by Liu Ya in his left arm. Now he is wrapped in bandages, and under the protection of his own soldiers, he is standing on the tower to command the battle.

"Yuan Bing is coming up from over there, fight them off!" Kong Rong shouted to a group of soldiers who had just climbed up the city wall from inside the city.

As Prime Minister of Beihai, Kong Rong has always loved the people like his own son, governed well, and was deeply loved by the people of Qingzhou.Therefore, no matter where he goes, there will be people willing to serve him.

When Kong Rong learned that Yuan Tan was coming to attack Beihai, he recruited soldiers, and in one night, more than [-] soldiers were recruited.However, the soldiers he recruited had not undergone strict training, they were simply a group of mobs who would be defeated when they were attacked.

It is precisely because of this that Yuan Tan easily breached Ju County. If it weren't for the protection of Liu Bei, Guan Yu and others, he would have been caught by Yuan Tan long ago.

But now, those guarding Zhuxu City are also Liu Bei's subordinates, and the brave soldiers he recruited can only be strong and powerful.

Yuan Bing kept climbing up the city wall. Although Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei resisted desperately, they were outnumbered after all, and there were more and more Yuan Bing on the city wall.

As soon as a group of Yuan soldiers climbed onto the city wall, they went directly to the direction where Kong Rong was, swung their knives and beheaded the guards protecting Kong Rong, and then arrested Kong Rong.

"Let me go! Let me go!" Kong Rong was suddenly held by Yuan Bing, and immediately shouted, "Xuande save me! Xuande save me!"

Liu Bei is also unable to protect himself now, surrounded by Yuan Bing, he kept waving the double swords in his hands, and beheaded Yuan Bing one after another, but for some reason, he always felt that Yuan Bing could not finish killing them.

Hearing Kong Rong's cry, he immediately turned his head and looked over, but seeing a few Yuan soldiers walking towards the bottom of the tower clinging to Kong Rong, he immediately shouted to Guan Yu, "Yun Chang! Save Kong Beihai!"

Guan Yu was holding the Qinglong Yanyue Saber and was slashing and killing Yuan Bing. With his high martial arts skills, it was a piece of cake for him to deal with these shrimp soldiers and crab generals.After hearing Liu Bei's cry, he immediately cheered up. Without saying a word, he raised the Qinglong Yanyue knife and threw it at Yuan Bing who was obsessed with Kong Rong.

At the same time, he pulled out the sword in his waist in an instant, and the long sword flew in the air. The light of the sword was shining like a bolt of lightning. body, and the long sword in his hand beheaded two Yuan soldiers, and saved Kong Rong in just a moment.

"Second brother is doing well!" Zhang Fei yelled loudly when he saw such a scene.

"Third brother, Xuzhou Mu Zhang Yan, will you really come?" Guan Yu asked.

"Second brother, don't worry, Zhang Shijun's troops are on the way, and they should be arriving soon." Zhang Fei shouted.

Kong Rong was still in shock and said: "Mr. Zhang will definitely come, and all the soldiers will persevere..."

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom..."

Suddenly, a series of dull voices came from Yuan Jun's back. On the western horizon, under the setting sun, a group of cavalrymen with flashing rainbow lights came into everyone's sight.

This group of cavalry was fully armed from head to toe, and even the horses under their seats were covered with a thick layer of armor, and they were galloping towards Yuan Jun with a vigorous and heroic posture.

In addition, two groups of infantry who were also heavily armed came out from the left and right flanks of Yuan Jun with fine steel spears. Although their movements were a little slow, the pace and formation of the army remained rigorous and consistent, and the pace of the entire army Consistently, every time you take a step forward, there will be a muffled "boom" at the same time, making the ground tremble.

The three troops all played a unified banner, and the four characters "Xuzhou Muzhang" came into everyone's eyes.

When Zhang Fei saw the appearance of these three troops, he was immediately elated, and shouted loudly: "The reinforcements are here, the reinforcements are here! Brothers, the reinforcements are here, let us drive Yuan Gou out of the city together!"

Following Zhang Fei's cry, the morale of the soldiers on the entire Zhuxu City wall was high, and they cheered up one after another, beheading Yuan Bing recklessly.

When Yuan Bing outside the city saw the reinforcements coming, he divided his troops to stop them, but facing these soldiers hiding in the iron armor, Yuan Jun's soldiers seemed a little helpless, their arrows could not penetrate the enemy's armor.

Clusters of arrows shot out one after another, but unfortunately the Iron Armored Army suffered no casualties, and they were getting closer and closer to Yuan Bing.

"boom!"

Under the leadership of Zhang Yan, the iron armored cavalry rushed directly into Yuan Bing's camp, and those Yuan Jun soldiers flew around after being hit, and the iron armored infantry followed closely behind, launching an attack from Yuan Jun's two wings.

Only then did Yuan Jun realize that not only their arrows couldn't pierce them, but even their spears couldn't pierce them, and their swords were useless.

For a while, Yuan Jun's officers and soldiers were surprised, and they could only let others slaughter them.

Yuan Jun was caught in the three-sided attack of the Iron Armored Army, and Yuan Tan was in charge of the battle. Seeing that his soldiers were helpless against the sudden Iron Armored Army, he immediately ordered to retreat to avoid being surrounded by the Iron Armored Army. La.

Yuan Jun called for gold to withdraw his troops, and those who had just climbed the city wall were miserable. All that awaited them was death.
