Prancing Horse Xiliang

Chapter 28

At the north gate of Qiao County, the sound of killing and drinking was like thunder.

Xu Chu and Sun Jian fought in front of the two armies in the dark, the sun and the moon were dark.

All the soldiers of the two armies cheered so loudly that they were almost hoarse.

Luo Zheng stands under the banner, and his blood is boiling.

In this era, heroes are respected. Although personal force does not play a decisive role in large-scale wars, it can boost the morale of the army to a certain extent. Therefore, when the two armies confront each other, there will always be a few battles between the two armies with superior force.

Sun Jian is known as the tiger of Jiangdong, with unstoppable courage, and his reputation frightens the world.

Xu Chu is just an unknown countryman. Although he is called a tiger idiot, it is only spread in the countryside. He has never shown his fame before. If he doesn't want to be able to draw with Sun Jian, how can he not cheer up the soldiers of the Xiliang Army? .

Gold and iron are piercing, like gold and stone piercing through the air.

Xu Chu roared like thunder, stared angrily, and fought hard.

Sun Jian summoned up his supernatural power, and the ancient ingot saber moved to rush to attack. After fighting for more than fifty rounds, he was a little bit unable to sustain his strength.

Just now, he was so angry that he spit out a mouthful of old blood, but it hurt his strength.

This time, when he met such a fierce person as Xu Chu, he was already slightly inferior, and after a long time, he fell into a disadvantage.

"To die."

Xu Chu, however, became more courageous as he fought more and more. Seeing that Sun Jian's strength was overwhelmed, he stabbed and fought hard.

Sun Jian glared angrily, roared again and again, and the corners of his eyes almost burst open.

Only then did he realize that Luo Zheng was ambushing himself, and after killing the culprits of Huang Gai and Han Dang, he was already furious and spit out a mouthful of old blood, but now the two armies are gradually losing to an unknown person in front of the battle, this is called He couldn't bear it.

Fight more than ten times.

Xu Chu was even more brave, his sword was like thunder, and his strength was heavy.

Sun Jian's forehead was sweating, and his arms were numb.

Seeing that if he continued to fight, he was afraid that he would lose, so although he was unwilling, he flattered his horse and left decisively.

"Wherever Sun Jian goes, he stays with his life."

Xu Chu yelled sharply, and galloped his horse to chase after him, holding on tightly.

Suddenly, with a 'swish' sound, a powerful arrow flew through the air, fast and ruthless, and shot straight at the throat.

Xu Chu hurriedly moved aside, and three more powerful arrows shot towards him.

Seeing the strength and angle of this powerful arrow, one knew that there were some good archers among the Youzhou cavalry.

With a loud roar, Xu Chu jumped off the horse with a majestic body, and when he passed through the belly of the horse and got on the horse from the other side, three powerful arrows just brushed past his ears, and the Xiliang soldiers at the head of the city saw his superb riding skills I was so dumbfounded that I forgot to applaud.

Usually, this guy is so big, he doesn't look like a person who is good at riding.

Now it seems that he has lost his sight.

Luo Zheng didn't expect Xu Chu to have such superb riding skills, and couldn't help but applaud.

Xu Chu was still waiting to chase, when the Youzhou cavalry in front of the formation had already opened their arrows, and a volley of arrows came.

"Hurry up, Mingjin retreats."

Luo Zheng watched clearly from the top of the city, fearing that Xu Chu would make a mistake, he quickly ordered loudly.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Xu Chu let out a long groan, pulled the horse away, danced with a long knife like flying flowers, and fended off all the powerful arrows that were shot, but unexpectedly, a powerful arrow hit the horse's butt by an omission.

The war horse suffered pain in its crotch, and immediately let out a long hiss, let go of all four hooves and galloped vigorously.

Fortunately, the [-] Xiliang cavalry who came after them quickly stopped them and drove the frenzied horses back to the city.

The [-] Youzhou cavalry did not take advantage of the situation to attack. After Sun Jian gave an order, they quickly fled away. The military discipline was very strict.

Luo Zheng's eyes on the top of the city are fixed. This Youzhou cavalry is not simple. Not only is it strictly disciplined, but the riding and shooting skills are not inferior to the Xiliang cavalry, and even worse. It is indeed the elite of the elite .

It has long been heard that the Youyan cavalry are tough and good at fighting, especially good at riding and shooting, but they have never seen it in person.

From the looks of it now, he really is a worthy man under his reputation.

The Youyan cavalry fought against the nomads and herdsmen outside the Great Wall all year round, and the prefect of Beiping, Gongsun Zan, was also good at training cavalry. The three thousand Youzhou cavalry were also Gongsun Zan's personal soldiers.

If you shoot low, it will hurt Sun Jian.

If the shot is too high, Xu Chu cannot be shot back.

Among them, the difficulty of grasping the angle is beyond the reach of ordinary archers.

Only those who are really good at shooting can grasp the angle just right.

Xiliang is a tough place, although Xiliang's iron cavalry are tough and good at fighting, they are famous all over the world, but when it comes to riding and shooting, they are slightly inferior to the Youzhou elite.This is not because the Xiliang cavalry is inferior to the Youzhou cavalry, but that the riding and archery skills are indeed inferior.

The northwest is suffering, and the Rong and Di are in chaos all the year round, and the living conditions are extremely harsh.

Gu Er, there are many tough people in the Northwest, and the Xiliang Army is also famous all over the world for being tough and good at fighting.

As far as the army is strong and good at fighting, only the Bingzhou Army and Youzhou Army can be compared with the Liangzhou Army.

Youzhou is also a place of bitter cold. The soldiers of Youyan are also known for being good at fighting. They also fight against nomads all year round. Youzhou cavalry are especially good at riding skills. It is indeed slightly inferior.

Of course, whether the Youzhou cavalry is good at fighting or the Xiliang cavalry is tough doesn't just depend on riding skills.

If you want to compete, you have to fight to know.

Luo Zheng watched the Youzhou cavalry flee far away, his eyes flickered, and the blood in his bones boiled inexplicably.

In the sound of hurried footsteps, Xu Chu, who was wearing a armor stomach, hurried up to the top of the city.

"My lord, so-and-so is back."

Xu Chu ran to Luo Zheng and replied loudly.

Luo Zheng patted Xu Chu's shoulder twice to show his closeness, and laughed: "Zhongkang is doing well, the guy who killed Sun Jian fled in embarrassment this time, which greatly boosted the morale of our army. Tigers don't dare to be arrogant anymore, hahaha!"

More than a dozen members of the Xiliang Military Academy also laughed heartily, feeling very relieved.

Looking at Xu Chu again, he was even more convinced and truly accepted this fierce man.

Xu Chu said shamelessly, "I'm really ashamed that I failed to kill that fellow Sun Jian, and that I have failed my lord."

Luo Zheng said loudly: "Don't worry about Zhongkang. Sun Jian, who was able to kill Sun Jian, fled in embarrassment this time, which is already a great achievement. If he can defeat the three thousand Youyan cavalry brought by Sun Jian, Zhongkang will record his first contribution .”

All the military academies hurriedly congratulated in unison, their eyes showing envy.

Luo Zheng waved his hand and said: "Go, go back to the governor's history, and discuss the military situation."

In the evening, before the sun set, Sun Jian's [-] infantry finally arrived at Qiao County.

After the army set up camp, they buried pots and cooked food immediately, and only rested enough mental and physical strength to fight in the future.

When the news was reported to the city, Luo Zheng hurriedly led all the military academies to the top of the city to watch.

After inspecting the camp of Sun Jian's army, he returned to the lobby of the governor's mansion to discuss how to defeat the enemy.

However, after many discussions and discussions, they did not come up with a safe way to defeat Sun Jian's army at a small price.

In terms of military strength, the Xiliang iron cavalry is less than half of Sun Jian's army.

Although the Xiliang army is all cavalry and has a great advantage, Sun Jian also has [-] elite Youzhou cavalry under his command. It is not easy to defeat Sun Jian's army at a small cost.

If there are no three thousand Youzhou cavalry, or only these three thousand Youzhou cavalry, it is not difficult to defeat them.

However, with the [-] army and the [-] Youzhou cavalry, it became a bit troublesome.

With these [-] Youzhou cavalry, Sun Jian's army will not be led by the nose by the Xiliang iron cavalry. If he wants to find an opportunity to defeat the enemy, the chance will become very slim. Yu Xiliang's iron cavalry may not be able to win.

Luo Zheng rubbed his eyebrows, listening to the military academies in the hall, you and I discussed loudly, his brows gradually tightened.

When the voice gradually died down, he looked up and found that all the military academies were looking at him expectantly.

Luo Zheng waved his hand and was about to end the military discussion. He suddenly remembered that when he was watching Water Margin before, the golden spear general Xu Ning used a hook and sickle to smash Hu Yanzhuo's armored serial cavalry.

In this era, there is no golden spear general Xu Ning, so naturally there is no hook and sickle spear.

Besides, the hook and sickle spear smashing the iron-clad serial cavalry is just a plot in the novel, whether it is really feasible or not is another matter.

That being the case, it is not a bad idea to learn and use the wisdom of the ancients.

Luo Zheng immediately thought of the stirrups and horseshoes, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.

The military academies saw that the general was frowning at first, and then his eyes lit up, revealing a treacherous smile. The military academies, who had gradually become familiar with Luo Zheng, suddenly lifted their spirits, and immediately knew that the general must have thought of some clever strategy to defeat the enemy.

Sure enough, Luo Zheng said loudly: "Yes, this general has thought of a good way to defeat the enemy."

All the military academies hurriedly said: "Please order, the general."

Luo Zheng said loudly: "Bring paper and pen."

Some soldiers had already left in response, and soon brought brushes and cloth.

Luo Zheng sat on the table and scribbled, until the painting wasted more than a dozen pieces of cloth, and he barely drew the figure.

"You wait and step back for now."

With a wave of his hand, Luo Zheng drove out all the military academies, leaving only Xu Chu alone.

Silently, the portal appeared in front of him.

Luo Zheng made a move, turned around and stepped in.

Xu Chu also hurriedly followed. Although he entered and exited many times, there was still surprise in the tiger's eyes.
