Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 467 Breaking the Camp [Two in One]

As the Qi army began to break through the first line of defense, they poured into the Han army camp
The soldiers of the two armies also started fighting in the Han army camp, and there were shouts of killing and screams everywhere, mixed in the ears.

The cavalry of the Han army at the back is also the most elite unit under Zhao Yun's command.

When the Qi army broke through the first line of defense.

Already taking action, the captain of the cavalry directly gave the order to charge, and covered and killed the Qi army rushing into the camp.

The soldiers of the Han army guarding the front did not gather in the center as if they had known it early on. Instead, they resisted the Qi army on both sides, allowing the cavalry troops to have room to charge.

The five thousand cavalry of the Han army, led by the captain of the cavalry, was like a torrent towards the Qi army to cover up and kill them.

Headed by Captain Cavalry, he formed an arrow array, like a sharp arrow, directly inserted into the Qi army, and charged all the way.

Each cavalryman held a long knife in his hand, which was also their weapon. Under the impact of the horse, he swung the long knife and chopped down the soldiers of the Qi army on his side.

After all, it is the most elite unit under Zhao Yun's command, and it was trained by Zhao Yun.

Taking advantage of the cavalry again, they charged forward.

Along the way, as if they were unstoppable, they directly rushed into the formation of the Qi army, blood and flesh flew all the way, and countless blood spattered on their bodies.

There was no expression, but a determined look on his face. The long knife in his hand swung up and down, repeating it non-stop.

And one side.

Guan Ping, who led Guan Yu's swordsmen, also noticed the situation of the Han cavalry.

Seeing that the army could not resist the charge of the Han cavalry.

There was no hesitation either.

With a wave of the broadsword in his hand, he led five hundred swordsmen to meet the elite cavalry of the Han army. After all, he could not watch the cavalry of the Han army fight fiercely in the army.

The five hundred swordsmen are also the most elite soldiers under Guan Yu's command, and they are also Guan Yu's personal guards. They are all selected through layers of selection, and some of them are veterans who have followed Guan Yu for a long time.

Although the cavalry of the Han army is as imposing as a rainbow, the five hundred swordsmen he leads are not bad.

And as long as the cavalry is stopped and the horses cannot run, the combat power of this cavalry will be greatly reduced.

When Guan Ping led five hundred swordsmen and headed towards the cavalry of the Han army.

The Cavalry Captain who led the cavalry of the Han Army also noticed this situation, not to mention that he also knew Guan Ping. After all, his own general and Guan Yu were old rivals. , there is no need to mix it up.

but.

There was no fear on his face, but a firm expression.

"Kill, life is endless, fighting is endless!"

The captain of the cavalry gave a loud shout, and led the cavalry to continue to charge forward.

"There is death, there is no life! Kill, kill, kill!"

The cavalry officers and soldiers behind them also shouted loudly, their formation remained unchanged, and they continued to charge.

No matter what is in front of them, they must break through directly, which is also their belief.

The shouting of the cavalrymen of the Han army also boosted the morale of the rest of the Han army soldiers, and they fought even more mercilessly. Although the number of them was smaller than that of the Qi army, they still stopped the Qi army and fought evenly. of.

At this time.

The cavalry of the Han army also came into contact with Guan Ping who was coming up, and five hundred swordsmen.

The momentum of the cavalry charge was also intercepted.

Although they were the most elite troops under Zhao Yun's command, the [-] swordsmen led by Guan Ping were not bad, and they rushed into the formation of the Qi army.

Even if the five hundred swordsmen led by Guan Ping were relatively small in number, they still stopped them.

"drink!"

was stopped.

Captain Qi also shouted loudly, swung the long knife in his hand, and slashed at Guan Ping.

The rest of the cavalry soldiers also brandished long knives and started fighting the enemy. Even if they couldn't continue to charge, they did not forget their mission.

However, the strength of the cavalry who can't charge has also weakened a lot, and they can't continue to let the Qi soldiers turn their backs.

When Guan Ping saw the riding captain coming forward wielding a saber, he was not at all afraid. He turned his saber around and rode his horse to meet him.

The broadsword in his hand is also somewhat similar to Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue Knife. It was made by imitation, but it is not 100% similar, and the difference can still be seen.

when~~
Captain Qi also fought with Guan Ping.

The cavalry captain who can become the most elite unit under Zhao Yun's command is also capable, otherwise, Zhao Yun would not let him take over the cavalry unit.

But Guan Ping is not an ordinary general.

He is Guan Yu's adopted son, and he is also learning from Guan Yu. Although he is not Zhao Yun's opponent, he will be able to deal with a riding captain.

The big knife in his hand was also waved again and again, slashing at the captain riding.

Except at first.

The captain cavalry could still make a little counterattack, but later he could only resist.

After more than ten rounds.

puff~~
White light flashed.

The broadsword in Guan Ping's hand slashed viciously across the captain's chest, bringing up a trace of blood.

Then he saw the armor on the captain's chest was cut open, and countless blood flowed out from his chest, like water from a sluice, and it couldn't be stopped.

The riding captain's hand that swung the saber was also paused, and then fell off the horse.

Fight to the death!

The death of the cavalry captain did not confuse the cavalry of the Han army, and continued to fight with the soldiers of the Qi army in the chaotic army.

Because when the captain of the cavalry died in battle, there were also those who were one level lower than the captain of the cavalry who came out to command. This is also the system in the Han army.

What's more, their chief general, Zhao Yun, is still fighting.

Aside.

Zhao Yun fighting with Guan Yu.

He is also unable to take care of too much with his clone. After all, he can't let him be distracted when fighting Guan Yu.

Watching the number of soldiers on the battlefield slowly decrease.

Zhao Yun was also anxious, but there was nothing he could do.

The number of the Qi army was several times that of theirs, and they were broken through the line of defense. They came into contact with each other and turned into a melee, which was also very unfavorable to them.

What's more, the Qi army still has a general like Guan Ping.

None of the generals under his command was a match for Guan Ping.

slowly.

The battlefield has also changed.

The soldiers of the Han army who were still desperately resisting were also pressed back step by step, and they were obviously at a disadvantage.

It is only a matter of time before the camp is captured.

Looking at the Han soldiers who fell one after another.

Zhao Yun also knew that it was impossible to continue to stop the Qi army now.

He feigned a shot, pulled the rein of the horse, and left the battle circle, shouting: "The whole army retreats!"

When running past a tent.

Zhao Yun put down the spear in his hand, took out a torch, ignited it, and threw it directly at the tent that looked a bit dilapidated due to the fighting between the two armies.

The tent was also instantly lit up.

I heard Zhao Yun shouting.

The soldiers of the Han army who were still struggling to resist also abandoned their opponents and retreated.

Simultaneously.

There are also many Han soldiers among them, doing the same action as Zhao Yun, taking out the fire pocket, blowing it on fire, and throwing it on the surrounding tents.

Every tent that was thrown from the fire folder was also instantly lit up.

In yesterday's time.

After Zhao Yun agreed to Kuai Liang's plan, he asked Kuai Liang to make all the arrangements.

Kuai Liang also collected all the kerosene in the army, took the soldiers, and sprinkled kerosene on the tents everywhere, and there were also flammable things inside.

To keep yourself from burning your own.

Since last night, the soldiers have not been allowed to enter the tents to rest, but to stay outside the tents, and the lit torches, fire plates, etc. are also not allowed to come close to the tents everywhere.

After all, they don't want any accidents to happen.

With many fire folds thrown out.

All the tents in the Han army camp also burned, and spread rapidly, forming a sea of ​​flames, and a single spark can start a prairie fire.

Originally, Guan Yu saw Zhao Yun leading the remaining Han army to retreat, so he planned to command the army to pursue.

Even if Zhao Yun couldn't be kept, he still wanted to reduce the strength of the Han army, planning to advance into Runan City, but he didn't act yet, but he saw Zhao Yun's movement.

And in an instant.

The Han army camp began to burn.

"Stop chasing, withdraw from the camp!" Guan Yu shouted.

At the same time, he also turned the horse's head and withdrew to the rear.

Seeing the current situation, he also knew that Zhao Yun had made preparations early in the morning. Even if he was defeated, he had made preparations for the retreat, and such a fire could not be extinguished quickly even if the entire army was assembled.

I heard Guan Yu shouting.

The soldiers of the Qi army didn't hesitate either, and turned around and left the camp one after another. After all, they didn't want to be buried in the sea of ​​flames.

Zhao Yun led the remaining Han soldiers to retreat.

Guan Yu also led the soldiers of the Qi army to leave the camp of the Han army.

However, the fire burning in the camp of the Han army would not be extinguished because of this, because the camps everywhere were full of kerosene, and when they met the fire, they burned and quickly formed a sea of ​​flames.

Even Guan Yu, who had already left the camp of the Han army for some distance, and the soldiers of the Qi army could still feel the warmth of the fire.

"General, I didn't expect the Han army to make such a choice!" Mi Zhu also rode over and sighed.

It is a pity in my heart. If I knew that the Han army camp was full of kerosene and flammable objects, I would not have used a strong attack before, but shot rockets directly at the Han army camp.

There will not be too much loss.

However, there is no if.

heard.

Guan Yu also nodded. If it weren't for the fire, there would never be many Han troops left.

"Father, how should we deal with this fire?" Guan Ping asked.

Now that the entire camp of the Han army is on fire, if they want to pass, they can only wait until the fire is extinguished, otherwise they will not be able to pass at all.

"General, there are deep mountains and dense forests on the left and right sides of this place. Once the fire spreads, it may be possible!" Mi Zhu also said.

I heard the words of the two of them.

Guan Yu also frowned, looking at the burning Han army camp in front of him.

Indeed, if the fire is not controlled, they will not be able to pass through, and the most important thing is that there are deep mountains and dense forests on both sides. Once it spreads, it will cause bad consequences.

And now that there is a sea of ​​flames, it is impossible for the army to pursue and take Runan City directly.

"Let the soldiers put out the fire, and send two troops to go around to the left and right sides, cut down trees, dig trenches, and block the fire from spreading!" Guan Yu ordered.

Although he ignored it, as long as he waited for the fire of the Han army in front of him to extinguish, he would be able to pass. As for whether it would spread, even if he didn't care, there would be no problem.

But he still couldn't do such a thing.

He was also angry with Zhao Yun in his heart. He didn't believe that Zhao Yun couldn't imagine what consequences would be caused once the fire spread, but Zhao Yun did it anyway.

"promise!"

Guan Ping and Mi Zhu didn't have any objections either, they bowed their hands and turned around to make arrangements.

In their hearts, they also did not want the fire to spread.

soon.

The soldiers of the Qi army also started to act, trying their best to extinguish the fire in the Hanzhong camp.

Guan Ping and Mi Zhu led two soldiers of the Qi army and went into the deep mountains and dense forests on both sides of the Han army's camp, preparing to cut down trees and dig trenches to prevent the fire from spreading.

Although the generals of the Qi army began to put out the fire, how could the fire covered in kerosene be easily extinguished.

The fire was still burning tenaciously, and the trees on both sides had already begun to burn, and it was obvious that it was about to spread.

After all, it was almost winter, and there were dead branches and leaves everywhere, and it was very easy to burn.

Guan Yu stood in front of the burning Han army camp, half-closed his Danfeng eyes, and didn't know what he was thinking.

From time to time
Guan Ping and Mi Zhu, who led the two Qi army soldiers to the left and right respectively, also came back almost at the same time.

"How?" Guan Yu asked suspiciously.

The two of them should have led the soldiers to cut trees and dig trenches to prevent the fire from spreading. Guan Yu was a little puzzled when they came back so quickly.

"General, about two miles to the right, the trees have been cut down, and there is also a three-foot-wide trench. The fire cannot spread out. The subordinates also asked the soldiers to stay where they are for safety!" Mi Zhu said.

"Father, the situation on the left is the same!" Guan Ping also cupped his hands.

heard.

Guan Yu also stared.

"General, it seems that the Han army decided to burn the camp to prevent our army from moving forward, and they are already prepared, and will not let the fire spread, so as not to cause any accidents!" Mi Zhu continued.

Guan Yu also nodded. It was obvious that the arrangements on both sides were prepared by the Han army early in the morning, and they also knew the danger of the fire spreading, so they also made preparations for it.

Just letting the fire block their pursuit will not let the fire spread.

Thinking of this, the anger towards Zhao Yun was relieved a lot.

but.

Even if you know there is an arrangement.

Guan Yu didn't stop the soldiers from putting out the fire either. No matter what, the fire still needed to be extinguished.

Otherwise, I don't know how long it will take until the fire goes out by itself.

Time passed little by little.

Wait until the fire is extinguished.

This time it also became a mess, with white smoke everywhere, and because of the traces of the fire, the width of this road was doubled.

but.

Guan Yu didn't lead the army forward anymore, but set up camp here, but it was some distance away from the place where the fire had burned.

After the previous battle and putting out the fire, the soldiers were almost exhausted and it was not appropriate to continue marching.

And it's not far from Runan City.

There are only five miles.

Prepare to take a break before continuing to Runan City.
