Chapter 868
Chapter 868 The Heroes of Troubled Times Compete in the Central Plains
On the fifth day of September, Baima.
The sky is clear, and the white clouds are like layers of waves surging from the sea, dotted on the blue sky.
The four gates of Baima City are closed.The big banners on the tower are flying in the air, as if they are going to ride the wind.The battle flags of various colors stretched out their vigorous postures in the wind, and the huge roars merged into waves of sound waves violently hitting the sky above the city.
The city wall was full of people, the solemn officials, the panic-stricken guards, and the frightened civilian husbands, all of them stared out of the city with their eyes wide open.
"Woooo..." The desolate and majestic horn sounded suddenly, like a golden lightning suddenly piercing the sky, followed by thunder and thunderbolts, and the sky and the earth changed color in shock.
The people on the city tower screamed in unison, and extreme panic instantly enveloped the entire city.
"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..." The sound of the horn became more and more dense and louder.
Outside the city is a sea of people, a sea of war horses, a sea of flags, a sea of blood and terror.
The [-] cavalry army formed a densely packed square formation, extending from the plains outside the city to the distant horizon, boundless, with no end in sight.
The scorching sun seemed to be unable to bear the cold and murderous intent of 9 people, and hid in the clouds with a pale expression while holding his head.
The horses are galloping, the ground is moaning helplessly under the trampling of the iron hooves, and the White Horse City has become weak under the fierce sharpness of the iron cavalry army, curled up and trembling like a beast whose sharp teeth have been pulled out, whimpering.
Yang Qi, the prefect of Jizhou, stood on the tower with his hands supporting the cold city wall. His thin body trembled slightly with the tower. The expressions in his eyes were very complicated, including excitement, panic, sadness, helplessness, and worry. I can still see a few traces of melancholy.After the initial shock, the officials at all levels standing beside him did not cheer or talk aloud. They seemed to have not woken up from the extreme horror, and looked blankly at the overwhelming army outside the city.
The loud roar from outside the city and the bursts of shouts from the city tower aroused the curiosity of the people in the city. People rushed to the city wall to witness this amazing scene that had never been seen before.
The rumored Desert Huqi, the rumored enemy for generations, suddenly appeared on the battlefield of the Central Plains.
Huns with disheveled hair, bare-headed Xianbei people and Karasuma people, there are countless groups, they are like a flood that has burst a bank, roaring all the way, and rushed to the distance in a mighty way.
The iron cavalry army crossed the White Horse City with a deafening roar, and the soaring smoke and dust rolled up covered the city and obscured the sky.
=
At dusk, the cavalry army arrived at Pingyang Pavilion.
The captain of the Huqiying camp led his troops to meet him and reported the situation on the front line, "The rebels launched a full-scale attack on the front lines of Yancheng, Taocheng and Wating. Due to the shortage of troops, our army is in danger on all battlefields, and we are in a hurry to retreat. .”
"Master Zhang Yan urgently, I have led the cavalry to Pingyang Pavilion, and the deployment will be completed in the early morning. Please leave Yancheng in the early morning of tomorrow according to the predetermined plan." Li Hong turned around and told Fu Gan, "Urgently summon all the ministries to lead the army. General, immediately go to the Chinese Army to discuss matters."
The darkness is approaching quietly, and the temporary tent of the Chinese army is brightly lit.
Standing in front of the map, Fu Gan drew a heavy line with his right hand between Pingyang Pavilion and Yancheng on the map, "There is a distance of seventy miles between Pingyang Pavilion and Yancheng. My [-] troops will be in front of Pingyang Pavilion Deploy [-] cavalry. The remaining [-] cavalry line up on the left and right flanks of the battlefield, deploying [-] troops every ten miles, so as to maintain the powerful attack power of the army, and strive to hit Yancheng in one go and kill the rebels to the greatest extent."
"Da Shanyu Liu Bao, Da Shan Yu Loulu, Da Shan Yu Tadun, She Yingtong, Lu Huanyang, She Hu and other kings led their troops to the frontal battlefield of Pingyang Pavilion." Fu Gan pointed to General Li Hong , "You are led by the general to attack the vanguard of the rebel army. As long as you defeat the vanguard of the rebel army, there will be no suspense in this battle. The rebel army will be defeated for thousands of miles and completely defeated."
"The [-] iron cavalry forcibly broke through the forward army of the rebel army and started chasing and killing them. The powerful attack power will last for five miles at most. After five miles, the speed and attack power of the iron cavalry will drop sharply. This may cause the follow-up army of the rebel army to lose It's time to flee, so we set up a second attack array at Dashiju, ten miles southwest of Pingyang Pavilion..." Fu Gan pointed at Xian Yufu, "After the military discussion is over, General Zuowei Xianyu will lead Macheng and Yuyang. The battalion cavalry hurried to Dashiju to set up an ambush."
"General Long Xiang, Lord Zhao Yun, will lead Liu Ming, Huding, Qishen, Jifeng and other lords to ambush at Xiaoma Pavilion, [-] miles southwest of Pingyang Pavilion."
"Master Yan Wuwei, the protector of Mobei, will lead Lord Tieyue from Jinxueyuan and Lord Tuoba Raccoon from Xianbei in the north to lay down in Jiting, thirty miles southwest of Pingyang Pavilion."
"Lord Leizi will lead the Ula Iron Cavalry from the Wuyuan Camp and Lord Xieguini from Xianbei in the west to ambush at Tubo Pavilion, forty miles southwest of Pingyang Pavilion."
Fu Gan then explained in detail the attack steps and contingency strategies of each ministry.
"My lords, if you have no objection, set off immediately and follow the order." Li Hong stood up and waved his hands forcefully, "I'll see you in Yancheng tomorrow night."
The generals clung to their promises.

On the sixth day of September, Yancheng.
In the early morning, the fast horse galloped into the city.
General Li Hongshu told Zhang Yan that the iron cavalry units had already entered the predetermined positions, and the frontline army could retreat, but it must be noted that the retreating units must firmly bite the rebels, and the distance between the rebels and the front and back should not be too large, so that The army was unable to complete the intended attack target.
Zhang Yan was overjoyed and ordered Qu Yi, Lu Bu, Yan Liang and others to lead their armies and withdraw from the battlefield one by one in the early morning.Zhang Yan solemnly told the generals not to retreat too quickly, and to make the rebels feel that we were being repulsed instead of retreating voluntarily.
=
The rebel attacks gradually stopped in the early morning, and in the early morning, the rebels couldn't wait to launch another attack.
The Beijiang army on the Taocheng battlefield was the first to be unable to resist. After being attacked by the Xuzhou army, the defense line was broken.Yan Liang and Wen Chou led their troops to retreat, and Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Ji Ling and others launched a pursuit.
Taocheng fell, Yancheng's flanks were threatened, and Qu Yi immediately retreated.Yuan Shao commanded a large army to enter the city, and Xin Ping, Jiang Qi, Xia Houyuan, Liu Pan, Wenpin and others each led their troops in pursuit.
Yan Liang led his troops back to Wating, joined Lu Bu and Fan Li, and fought desperately at Wating.When Kuai Yue, Sun Fu, and Lu Su learned that Yancheng and Taocheng had been conquered, their morale was greatly boosted, and the momentum of attack was wave after wave.The Northern Xinjiang Army could not resist and retreated across the board.
=
In the morning, Yuan Shao and Liu Biao jointly signed a letter to the generals on the front line. The vanguard army was commanded by Kuai Yue. During the pursuit, the generals of the vanguard army quickly led their respective troops to gather together and form a solid battle formation with both offensive and defensive capabilities to strictly guard against the attacks of the northern Xinjiang cavalry. .Part of the rest of the coalition army was led by Yuan Shao himself, following the vanguard, and part of it was led by Liu Biao, who followed with food and supplies.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were the fastest pursuers. They had been defeated in the battle of Jizhou and returned home. They hated the Northern Army. Now they were so excited to see the Northern Army fleeing with their heads in their arms. The warlord chased after them.Kuai Yue was worried that the two would lose protection and be counterattacked by the Northern Xinjiang Army, so he hurriedly ordered Xin Ping, Xia Houyuan and others to catch up.Both Xin Ping and Xia Houyuan were hit hard by Northern Xinjiang cavalry at Pingyang Pavilion, so they were extremely careful. Not only did they not follow Kuai Yue's order to quickly catch up with the Xuzhou army, but slowed down their progress.
After receiving the report from the scouts, Lu Bu and Yan Liang immediately ordered the Guo Xun and Gao Shun battalions to stop and turn around to meet the Xuzhou army.
The two armies met on a narrow road, fighting hand to hand, and 3 to [-] people fought fiercely in an open field.
Seeing Gao Shun's battle flag from a distance, Guan Yu was furious. He led a group of hundreds of personal guards riding like a long arrow, and shot fiercely at the center of the Northern Frontier Army. Blockers are invincible.The Xuzhou soldiers saw that the leader and the soldiers were unstoppable, and all the morale was like a rainbow, and they moved forward bravely.
Gao Shun saw that the enemy suddenly rode into an uninhabited land, and his subordinates fell one by one, with broken limbs and arms flying in the air, and heads jumping in the wind.He was angry, raised his gun and yelled, "Kill... kill them, kill them..."
Gao Shun rushed into the enemy's formation first, and his spear was like lightning, picking up two cavalry, "Cut down the battle flag, cut it down for me."
"Kill..." The fierce soldiers from northern Xinjiang shouted loudly and swarmed up, "Kill Guan Yu, kill him..."
"Go to hell." Guan Yuhu roared, and the long knife thundered down, and a blood-spitting human head shot up into the sky.Gao Shun flew towards him, piercing his face with a sharp spear, "Kill...".With sharp eyes and quick hands, Guan Yu smashed the handle of the gun with his fist, and chopped the long knife down. Gao Shun's forelegs immediately left his body when he sat down on the horse.The war horse screamed and hissed in pain, and fell to the ground.With a roar, Gao Shun slammed his palm on the horse's back, and his body soared into the air. At the same time, the long spear slammed backwards at an unimaginable speed.
At this moment, the two horses missed each other, and Guan Yu had already passed by on galloping horse.Gao Shun's shot missed Guan Yu's back, but went straight into the ass of Guan Yu's horse as he sat down.The horse suffered from pain, and immediately stood upright, throwing Guan Yu, who was defenseless, to the ground.
Gao Shun fell to the ground.The guards turned pale with shock, shouting again and again, "Protect your lord, protect your lord..."
Guan Yu jumped up, heard the cries of the enemy soldiers, and immediately realized that the person passing by just now was Gao Shun, he roared excitedly, "surround...kill Gao Shun, kill him... ..."
No one can stop Guan Yu.In the blink of an eye, he chopped down two war horses and killed three soldiers from northern Xinjiang. His saber flew down into the air with bloody flowers all over the sky, "Kill..."
Gao Shun couldn't stand up anymore. When he fell to the ground, his right leg was sprained, and the pain was so painful that he could only half lie on the ground and raised his gun to intercept him.Guan Yu roared like thunder, chopped five knives in a row, and hit the spear with the knife, the spear couldn't bear it, and it split into two.
Guan Yu was ecstatic, and struck again, "Kill..."
A cold light flashed like lightning in midair, "Dang..." There was a loud bang, and sparks shot out.Guan Yu bounced his long saber and took two steps back.
"You are Guan Yu?" A burly man appeared beside Gao Shun, his saber trembling slightly, "My name is Yan Liang." As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Liang, like a tiger, rushed towards Guan Yu.Guan Yu screamed, and the long knife whizzed up. For a moment, metal and iron sang and sparks flew all over the sky.Guan Yu retreated again and again, and danger appeared everywhere.Around the two of them, soldiers from both sides were entangled, fighting fiercely, blood and flesh flying everywhere, no one could rush to help.
Yan Liang's voice sounded like thunder, he stepped forward and slashed seventeen knives in one breath.Guan Yu tried his best to block, and exhausted all his strength to regain the disadvantage, but Yan Liang was extremely brave, and his sword was more fierce than that of the sword, killing Guan Yu without any power to fight back.
Yan Liang suddenly stopped, raised his sword with both hands, raised his head and shouted wildly, "Kill..." The sword whizzed down.
Guan Yu roared, and blocked the long knife head-on.
Knife broken.Both swords are broken.The two exclaimed, and flew back at the same time.
Guan Yu's personal guards pounced on the left and right, protecting Guan Yu and roaring away.
=
Wenpin and Liu Pan led the army to catch up quickly and spread out from the two wings.
Lu Bu hastily ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops.
At this moment, Guo Xun led a team of troops to fight fiercely with the Xuzhou army in the enemy's formation. He was entangled by Zhang Fei's subordinates and could not withdraw at all.
After receiving the report, Lu Bu pointed his halberd forward without hesitation, and led his bodyguards and cavalry into the enemy's formation like a strong wind.
Lu Bu's war horse was like a dragon, and his iron halberd was like flying. Amidst thunderous roars, he wantonly devoured the fresh lives.Hundreds of fierce soldiers followed closely behind, unstoppable and unstoppable.
Zhang Fei ordered the soldiers to avoid his sharp edge, get out of the way, and block Lu Bu's back, trapping him in the formation, and he will be killed when reinforcements arrive.
Lü Bu joined Guo Xun and ordered his personal guards to stand guard on both sides of the infantry, struggling to break through the encirclement, but the enemy was surrounded by layers of troops, and they were overwhelming.
Lu Bu was furious, turned his horse's head suddenly, and single-handedly killed the center of the formation.The enemy soldiers couldn't resist, and were killed by Lu Bu and scattered and fled.Lu Bu galloped his horse like flying, and charged directly at the banner of the Chinese army.The enemy soldiers discovered Lu Bu's intention and tried their best to block it.Zhang Fei also brought people to kill him quickly.In desperation, Lu Bu stabbed the horse's butt with his knife.The war horse was in extreme pain, soaring into the air, and bumped into the big banner.The flagpole with thick arms snapped in two, and the big flag fell to the ground with a crash.
The Xuzhou army was in chaos.
Guo Xun took the opportunity to command the soldiers to fight out.Lü Bu's personal guard cavalry immediately split up half of their troops, turned back and rushed into the enemy's line to rescue Lv Bu.
Zhang Fei was furious, roared loudly, and aimed at Lu Bu with his spear.Lu Bu was unafraid, the iron halberd flew up and down, fighting and walking.The surrounding enemy soldiers lost their heads when they couldn't dodge a little.
Zhang Fei was so angry that he cursed and roared repeatedly, "Spread...scatter...shoot him, shoot him..."
The enemy retreated quickly, and Lu Bu's was even faster. He always appeared in places where the crowd was densest, with a halberd in his hand like lightning, drinking the blood of the enemy soldiers while making a terrifying scream of chasing souls.
Suddenly, Lv Bu roared, and with his halberd in his hand, his bloody body soared into the air, gliding a few steps in the air like a nine-day black eagle, over the crowd, and bumped into the enemy cavalry galloping from a distance.The enemy cavalry was caught off guard and was hit by Lu Bu, who let out a scream.The bodies of the two were stacked together and flew out in the air.The halberd in Lu Bu's hand hit the ground again, and with the strength of the rebound, the man rose instead of falling, and landed steadily on the horse's back.
"Let's go..." Lu Bu punched the horse, the horse suffered from pain, jumped up with a long hiss, bumped into several people, and galloped away.
"Surround him and kill him..." Zhang Fei's eyes were about to burst into flames. He held up his spear and chased him with all his bodyguards.
Lu Bu, who was galloping on his horse, turned around suddenly, and shot a long arrow at Zhang Fei.
Without even thinking about it, Zhang Fei threw off the spear, rolled over with his head in his arms, and rolled off the horse.
"嗖...嗖...嗖..." Three sharp arrows roared past.One was nailed into the horse's neck, the other shot the guards behind Zhang Fei off the horse, and the other shot through the air and fell into the sky full of arrows.
One bow and three arrows, all three arrows fired together.Before landing, Zhang Fei looked at the three arrows flying past his eyes like lightning, and couldn't help but exclaim.The horse hit by the arrow stood upright, hissed a few times in pain, and then fell to the ground.Zhang Fei just wanted to stand up, but was swept by the horse's front hooves, his body flew out horizontally, and he fell so blinded and dizzy.
Lu Bu's horned bow rang repeatedly, and his long arrows flew like flying, shooting down the enemy cavalry one after another.The enemy cavalry was so terrified that they dared not pursue them any more.
Lv Bu's personal guard cavalry were rushing forward with all their strength, when they suddenly saw Lv Bu coming out single-handedly, they all raised their arms and cheered.
"Go... let's go... let's get out!" Lu Bu raised his halberd high and shouted wildly.
Everyone rushed forward, protecting Lu Bu and leaving.
=
Kuai Yue, Xin Ping, Xia Houyuan and others arrived later, and nearly [-] troops quickly advanced towards Pingyang Pavilion.
Xin Ping was stationed on a soil slope, looking around nervously.He has learned from the past and is very worried about being raided by the northern Xinjiang cavalry.
"The Northern Army has set up an ambush twice at Pingyang Pavilion. If they want to attack us this time, they will not choose Pingyang Pavilion again. They will probably choose the southern or northern plains of Pingyang Pavilion." Xin Ping pointed to the vast plains around him, worried He said, "We should densely deploy scouts within thirty miles to prevent accidents."
Kuai Yue shook his head, "That is to send them to die. It is only seventy miles from Yancheng to Pingyang Pavilion, and the distance between the armies of the two sides is only a few miles. He was killed by the opponent's scouts." Kuai Yue paused, looked at Xin Ping's worried face, and comforted him in a low voice, "Don't worry too much. It was twenty miles behind us at first, and brother Jing Sheng will also bring us in the afternoon. With the army going north, the three armies are very close to each other, even if there are cavalry from the northern border, we can quickly get support."
"Now there are northern Xinjiang iron cavalry on the Hanoi and Yanzhou battlefields. There are not many iron cavalry directly opposite us. It is estimated that they are some Huns. In addition, we have chariots that can form a chariot formation. There are tens of thousands of cavalry who have fought against the iron cavalry. Soldiers, with strong bows and ballistas, 10,000+ follow-up troops, and sufficient precautions and preparations, can’t they defeat them? When Li Hong was in Xiliang, he repeatedly defeated troops several times his own with infantry battles. Hu Qi, they can win, why can't we?"
Xin Ping smiled wryly, and leaned into Kuai Yue's ear and said, "It is precisely because Li Hong has rich experience in defeating iron cavalry with an army of infantry that he will not make the same mistake. Do you think he is Thunder in June? Lian, Tuoba Feng? He is Li Hong, the leopard Li Hong." Xin Ping emphasized his tone and said word by word, "He is a leopard."
Kuai Yue was a little dissatisfied. He glared at Xin Ping, "Do you think you can defeat Li Hong by defending Guandu to the death? He withdrew this year and won't come next year? There will always be war horses in Northern Xinjiang, and there will always be war horses." There are sturdy cavalry, is it because of this that we have to give up the Northern Expedition, give up the pacification of the world, and launch the great cause of revitalizing the country?"
Xin Ping didn't speak anymore, he closed his mouth tightly and said nothing.These people are crazy now, dazzled by the victories in front of them, they have completely forgotten the lesson of the disastrous defeat in the Jizhou War.How imaginable is the retreat of the Northern Xinjiang Army across the board today and the battle the year before last.Li Hong started his career by relying on iron cavalry, and he is good at riding and fighting. As long as he is given a chance, he will use iron cavalry to tear us to pieces.
"Yiedu (Kuiyue), let the ministries get closer and slow down, we just need to reach Pingyang Pavilion before dark." Xin Ping thought for a while, but couldn't help but persuade, "Soldiers continue to march , Fighting continuously, I am already exhausted, it is better to slow down."
"We are tired, and the Northern Xinjiang Army is even more tired. Do you think they can still fight?" Kuai Yue sneered, "The competition between the two sides is now about resilience and physical strength. Whoever can persevere to the end will be the winner."
Kuai Yue ignored Xin Ping, ordered the army to speed up the advance, and urged Yuan Shao to lead the Chinese army to catch up as soon as possible.If the Northern Frontier Army cannot be severely damaged this time, and Yuan Shao's strength cannot be consumed in large quantities, even if he wins the Central Plains War, it will be difficult to have any impact on the situation in the world, and it will not be of any benefit to the Great Han Society.If the strength of Hebei still exists, Yuan Shaoquan will take over the Central Plains, and the power to usurp the Dahan will become stronger and stronger, and the Dahan will lose hope of revival.

A puff of smoke and dust suddenly rolled up in the sky, and then an army of iron cavalry rushed out of the horizon, roaring like a tide.The sound of galloping horses approached from far away, getting louder and gradually deafening.The ground trembled violently at this moment.
The sound of war drums for alarm resounded across the field.
The soldiers of the coalition army quickly formed more than a dozen square formations, and erected huge shields in front of the formations.All kinds of chariots were pushed to the front row and arranged in a staggered manner.Hundreds of crossbows lined up, opening their mouths wide open.In the battle formation, more than 1 strong archers are ready to go.
Northern Xinjiang cavalry charged forward in a mighty manner, and hundreds of black panther battle flags fluttered in the wind like a rainbow.
"Shoot...shoot...shoot..." Before the cavalry army approached, Kuai Yue gave the order to shoot.Although the first round of volley could not hit the enemy's cavalry, it was a huge boost to the morale of one's own side.
In an instant, the arrows were like locusts, covering the sky and the sun.
=
"Woo...Ming..."
The horn blared.
The northern Xinjiang cavalry gradually slowed down, and dozens of cavalry rushed out first, approaching the enemy's line for observation.
A gray cloud of dust swept across the sky, and the sky suddenly became dark.
Kuai was more frightened and ordered again and again, "Shoot... give me consecutive shots..."
The roar of the ballista instantly rang out.
The horn sounded again, and the smoke and dust grew even bigger, while the roar of galloping horses gradually faded away.
Northern Xinjiang cavalry withdrew.
=
The soldiers of the coalition army couldn't believe it. They looked at the iron cavalry that disappeared into the sky for a long time, and they couldn't imagine that they had pushed back the most powerful army in the world today.
"Boom...boom..." The sound of war drums suddenly soared into the sky.
The soldiers were awakened by the high-pitched drums, and everyone raised their weapons at the same time, roaring wildly. The excited cheers lasted for a long time, and the heavy sound waves pierced through the clouds and rocks and went straight to the sky.
"We won, we won." Kuai Gao raised his arms and roared at Xin Ping repeatedly.
Xin Ping looked indifferent, looking thoughtfully at the dust and mist still floating in the air.The iron cavalry of the Northern Xinjiang Army was not as many as imagined, not even 1.What about their cavalry?Is it back to aid Jizhou?If Zang Ba and Chen Deng have entered Jizhou and Li Hong wants to stop them as quickly as possible, then sending cavalry back to aid is the best way.Is it really?
=
When the allied forces advanced to thirty miles away from Pingyang, Lu Bu and Yan Liang turned back to block the enemy again.
This time the coalition forces were unwilling to fight with the northern army. They were worried that they would be attacked by the northern cavalry after the formation dispersed, so they only fought with arrows to keep the northern army in front of the two armies.
The two sides stood in a stalemate for a while, and the sky was filled with smoke and dust again, and the northern Xinjiang cavalry appeared again.Probably because the infantry army failed to lure the opponent out of attack, the iron cavalry army ran for hundreds of steps before turning around and retreating.
Kuai Yue and others figured out the intention of the Northern Xinjiang Army, and the [-] troops immediately hugged each other tightly, and their marching speed was greatly slowed down.
Kuai Yueshu told Yuan Shao and Liu Biao that some of the northern Xinjiang cavalry had returned to aid Jizhou. With the current number of northern Xinjiang cavalry, it was obviously impossible to make a breakthrough from the front. Therefore, he estimated that the Northern Xinjiang Army would give up the strategy of using iron cavalry to attack the coalition forces and turn to And take advantage of its powerful infantry army, strong cities such as Baima and Puyang, and the fact that the battlefield is close to the Yellow River, and the food and grass can be replenished nearby, etc., to continue to confront us.In order to shatter the northern army's dream of sticking to the south bank of the Yellow River and occupying Yanzhou, and also to prevent the northern army from making a breakthrough from the battlefield on both wings, so that our strategy of annihilating the enemy will fall short, please join us quickly and attack Pingyang Pavilion together , so that tomorrow they will go north to Baima City and drive the Northern Xinjiang Army across the Yellow River as quickly as possible.
Yuan Shao led Tao Yi, Wang Mo, Ji Ling, Sun Fu, Lu Su and other [-] troops to follow the vanguard and walked slowly.After receiving Kuai Yue's letter, Yuan Shao finally let go of his tight heart.
He is most worried about the northern Xinjiang iron cavalry, but it seems that Li Hong has not deployed the main force of the iron cavalry on the frontal battlefield.After the food and grass in Wuchao and Gushi were burned, Li Hong probably changed his strategy and planned to withdraw his troops to defend the front line of Baima and Puyang. Therefore, he dispatched all the main force of the cavalry to the two-wing battlefield, in order to use the advantage of the iron cavalry to quickly make a breakthrough in the two-wing battlefield , thus threatening Henan and the food road of the coalition forces, and dragging the coalition forces in Henan.This strategy is indeed good, but Li Hong did not expect the attack speed of the coalition forces to be too fast, his deployment was disrupted, and he lost sight of the other.This is the best opportunity to defeat the Northern Xinjiang Army, so don't miss it.
Yuan Shao was concerned, and then ordered all the ministries to speed up and quickly close the distance with the forward army.

(End of this chapter)
On the fifth day of September, Baima.
The sky is clear, and the white clouds are like layers of waves surging from the sea, dotted on the blue sky.
The four gates of Baima City are closed.The big banners on the tower are flying in the air, as if they are going to ride the wind.The battle flags of various colors stretched out their vigorous postures in the wind, and the huge roars merged into waves of sound waves violently hitting the sky above the city.
The city wall was full of people, the solemn officials, the panic-stricken guards, and the frightened civilian husbands, all of them stared out of the city with their eyes wide open.
"Woooo..." The desolate and majestic horn sounded suddenly, like a golden lightning suddenly piercing the sky, followed by thunder and thunderbolts, and the sky and the earth changed color in shock.
The people on the city tower screamed in unison, and extreme panic instantly enveloped the entire city.
"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..." The sound of the horn became more and more dense and louder.
Outside the city is a sea of people, a sea of war horses, a sea of flags, a sea of blood and terror.
The [-] cavalry army formed a densely packed square formation, extending from the plains outside the city to the distant horizon, boundless, with no end in sight.
The scorching sun seemed to be unable to bear the cold and murderous intent of 9 people, and hid in the clouds with a pale expression while holding his head.
The horses are galloping, the ground is moaning helplessly under the trampling of the iron hooves, and the White Horse City has become weak under the fierce sharpness of the iron cavalry army, curled up and trembling like a beast whose sharp teeth have been pulled out, whimpering.
Yang Qi, the prefect of Jizhou, stood on the tower with his hands supporting the cold city wall. His thin body trembled slightly with the tower. The expressions in his eyes were very complicated, including excitement, panic, sadness, helplessness, and worry. I can still see a few traces of melancholy.After the initial shock, the officials at all levels standing beside him did not cheer or talk aloud. They seemed to have not woken up from the extreme horror, and looked blankly at the overwhelming army outside the city.
The loud roar from outside the city and the bursts of shouts from the city tower aroused the curiosity of the people in the city. People rushed to the city wall to witness this amazing scene that had never been seen before.
The rumored Desert Huqi, the rumored enemy for generations, suddenly appeared on the battlefield of the Central Plains.
Huns with disheveled hair, bare-headed Xianbei people and Karasuma people, there are countless groups, they are like a flood that has burst a bank, roaring all the way, and rushed to the distance in a mighty way.
The iron cavalry army crossed the White Horse City with a deafening roar, and the soaring smoke and dust rolled up covered the city and obscured the sky.
=
At dusk, the cavalry army arrived at Pingyang Pavilion.
The captain of the Huqiying camp led his troops to meet him and reported the situation on the front line, "The rebels launched a full-scale attack on the front lines of Yancheng, Taocheng and Wating. Due to the shortage of troops, our army is in danger on all battlefields, and we are in a hurry to retreat. .”
"Master Zhang Yan urgently, I have led the cavalry to Pingyang Pavilion, and the deployment will be completed in the early morning. Please leave Yancheng in the early morning of tomorrow according to the predetermined plan." Li Hong turned around and told Fu Gan, "Urgently summon all the ministries to lead the army. General, immediately go to the Chinese Army to discuss matters."
The darkness is approaching quietly, and the temporary tent of the Chinese army is brightly lit.
Standing in front of the map, Fu Gan drew a heavy line with his right hand between Pingyang Pavilion and Yancheng on the map, "There is a distance of seventy miles between Pingyang Pavilion and Yancheng. My [-] troops will be in front of Pingyang Pavilion Deploy [-] cavalry. The remaining [-] cavalry line up on the left and right flanks of the battlefield, deploying [-] troops every ten miles, so as to maintain the powerful attack power of the army, and strive to hit Yancheng in one go and kill the rebels to the greatest extent."
"Da Shanyu Liu Bao, Da Shan Yu Loulu, Da Shan Yu Tadun, She Yingtong, Lu Huanyang, She Hu and other kings led their troops to the frontal battlefield of Pingyang Pavilion." Fu Gan pointed to General Li Hong , "You are led by the general to attack the vanguard of the rebel army. As long as you defeat the vanguard of the rebel army, there will be no suspense in this battle. The rebel army will be defeated for thousands of miles and completely defeated."
"The [-] iron cavalry forcibly broke through the forward army of the rebel army and started chasing and killing them. The powerful attack power will last for five miles at most. After five miles, the speed and attack power of the iron cavalry will drop sharply. This may cause the follow-up army of the rebel army to lose It's time to flee, so we set up a second attack array at Dashiju, ten miles southwest of Pingyang Pavilion..." Fu Gan pointed at Xian Yufu, "After the military discussion is over, General Zuowei Xianyu will lead Macheng and Yuyang. The battalion cavalry hurried to Dashiju to set up an ambush."
"General Long Xiang, Lord Zhao Yun, will lead Liu Ming, Huding, Qishen, Jifeng and other lords to ambush at Xiaoma Pavilion, [-] miles southwest of Pingyang Pavilion."
"Master Yan Wuwei, the protector of Mobei, will lead Lord Tieyue from Jinxueyuan and Lord Tuoba Raccoon from Xianbei in the north to lay down in Jiting, thirty miles southwest of Pingyang Pavilion."
"Lord Leizi will lead the Ula Iron Cavalry from the Wuyuan Camp and Lord Xieguini from Xianbei in the west to ambush at Tubo Pavilion, forty miles southwest of Pingyang Pavilion."
Fu Gan then explained in detail the attack steps and contingency strategies of each ministry.
"My lords, if you have no objection, set off immediately and follow the order." Li Hong stood up and waved his hands forcefully, "I'll see you in Yancheng tomorrow night."
The generals clung to their promises.

On the sixth day of September, Yancheng.
In the early morning, the fast horse galloped into the city.
General Li Hongshu told Zhang Yan that the iron cavalry units had already entered the predetermined positions, and the frontline army could retreat, but it must be noted that the retreating units must firmly bite the rebels, and the distance between the rebels and the front and back should not be too large, so that The army was unable to complete the intended attack target.
Zhang Yan was overjoyed and ordered Qu Yi, Lu Bu, Yan Liang and others to lead their armies and withdraw from the battlefield one by one in the early morning.Zhang Yan solemnly told the generals not to retreat too quickly, and to make the rebels feel that we were being repulsed instead of retreating voluntarily.
=
The rebel attacks gradually stopped in the early morning, and in the early morning, the rebels couldn't wait to launch another attack.
The Beijiang army on the Taocheng battlefield was the first to be unable to resist. After being attacked by the Xuzhou army, the defense line was broken.Yan Liang and Wen Chou led their troops to retreat, and Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Ji Ling and others launched a pursuit.
Taocheng fell, Yancheng's flanks were threatened, and Qu Yi immediately retreated.Yuan Shao commanded a large army to enter the city, and Xin Ping, Jiang Qi, Xia Houyuan, Liu Pan, Wenpin and others each led their troops in pursuit.
Yan Liang led his troops back to Wating, joined Lu Bu and Fan Li, and fought desperately at Wating.When Kuai Yue, Sun Fu, and Lu Su learned that Yancheng and Taocheng had been conquered, their morale was greatly boosted, and the momentum of attack was wave after wave.The Northern Xinjiang Army could not resist and retreated across the board.
=
In the morning, Yuan Shao and Liu Biao jointly signed a letter to the generals on the front line. The vanguard army was commanded by Kuai Yue. During the pursuit, the generals of the vanguard army quickly led their respective troops to gather together and form a solid battle formation with both offensive and defensive capabilities to strictly guard against the attacks of the northern Xinjiang cavalry. .Part of the rest of the coalition army was led by Yuan Shao himself, following the vanguard, and part of it was led by Liu Biao, who followed with food and supplies.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were the fastest pursuers. They had been defeated in the battle of Jizhou and returned home. They hated the Northern Army. Now they were so excited to see the Northern Army fleeing with their heads in their arms. The warlord chased after them.Kuai Yue was worried that the two would lose protection and be counterattacked by the Northern Xinjiang Army, so he hurriedly ordered Xin Ping, Xia Houyuan and others to catch up.Both Xin Ping and Xia Houyuan were hit hard by Northern Xinjiang cavalry at Pingyang Pavilion, so they were extremely careful. Not only did they not follow Kuai Yue's order to quickly catch up with the Xuzhou army, but slowed down their progress.
After receiving the report from the scouts, Lu Bu and Yan Liang immediately ordered the Guo Xun and Gao Shun battalions to stop and turn around to meet the Xuzhou army.
The two armies met on a narrow road, fighting hand to hand, and 3 to [-] people fought fiercely in an open field.
Seeing Gao Shun's battle flag from a distance, Guan Yu was furious. He led a group of hundreds of personal guards riding like a long arrow, and shot fiercely at the center of the Northern Frontier Army. Blockers are invincible.The Xuzhou soldiers saw that the leader and the soldiers were unstoppable, and all the morale was like a rainbow, and they moved forward bravely.
Gao Shun saw that the enemy suddenly rode into an uninhabited land, and his subordinates fell one by one, with broken limbs and arms flying in the air, and heads jumping in the wind.He was angry, raised his gun and yelled, "Kill... kill them, kill them..."
Gao Shun rushed into the enemy's formation first, and his spear was like lightning, picking up two cavalry, "Cut down the battle flag, cut it down for me."
"Kill..." The fierce soldiers from northern Xinjiang shouted loudly and swarmed up, "Kill Guan Yu, kill him..."
"Go to hell." Guan Yuhu roared, and the long knife thundered down, and a blood-spitting human head shot up into the sky.Gao Shun flew towards him, piercing his face with a sharp spear, "Kill...".With sharp eyes and quick hands, Guan Yu smashed the handle of the gun with his fist, and chopped the long knife down. Gao Shun's forelegs immediately left his body when he sat down on the horse.The war horse screamed and hissed in pain, and fell to the ground.With a roar, Gao Shun slammed his palm on the horse's back, and his body soared into the air. At the same time, the long spear slammed backwards at an unimaginable speed.
At this moment, the two horses missed each other, and Guan Yu had already passed by on galloping horse.Gao Shun's shot missed Guan Yu's back, but went straight into the ass of Guan Yu's horse as he sat down.The horse suffered from pain, and immediately stood upright, throwing Guan Yu, who was defenseless, to the ground.
Gao Shun fell to the ground.The guards turned pale with shock, shouting again and again, "Protect your lord, protect your lord..."
Guan Yu jumped up, heard the cries of the enemy soldiers, and immediately realized that the person passing by just now was Gao Shun, he roared excitedly, "surround...kill Gao Shun, kill him... ..."
No one can stop Guan Yu.In the blink of an eye, he chopped down two war horses and killed three soldiers from northern Xinjiang. His saber flew down into the air with bloody flowers all over the sky, "Kill..."
Gao Shun couldn't stand up anymore. When he fell to the ground, his right leg was sprained, and the pain was so painful that he could only half lie on the ground and raised his gun to intercept him.Guan Yu roared like thunder, chopped five knives in a row, and hit the spear with the knife, the spear couldn't bear it, and it split into two.
Guan Yu was ecstatic, and struck again, "Kill..."
A cold light flashed like lightning in midair, "Dang..." There was a loud bang, and sparks shot out.Guan Yu bounced his long saber and took two steps back.
"You are Guan Yu?" A burly man appeared beside Gao Shun, his saber trembling slightly, "My name is Yan Liang." As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Liang, like a tiger, rushed towards Guan Yu.Guan Yu screamed, and the long knife whizzed up. For a moment, metal and iron sang and sparks flew all over the sky.Guan Yu retreated again and again, and danger appeared everywhere.Around the two of them, soldiers from both sides were entangled, fighting fiercely, blood and flesh flying everywhere, no one could rush to help.
Yan Liang's voice sounded like thunder, he stepped forward and slashed seventeen knives in one breath.Guan Yu tried his best to block, and exhausted all his strength to regain the disadvantage, but Yan Liang was extremely brave, and his sword was more fierce than that of the sword, killing Guan Yu without any power to fight back.
Yan Liang suddenly stopped, raised his sword with both hands, raised his head and shouted wildly, "Kill..." The sword whizzed down.
Guan Yu roared, and blocked the long knife head-on.
Knife broken.Both swords are broken.The two exclaimed, and flew back at the same time.
Guan Yu's personal guards pounced on the left and right, protecting Guan Yu and roaring away.
=
Wenpin and Liu Pan led the army to catch up quickly and spread out from the two wings.
Lu Bu hastily ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops.
At this moment, Guo Xun led a team of troops to fight fiercely with the Xuzhou army in the enemy's formation. He was entangled by Zhang Fei's subordinates and could not withdraw at all.
After receiving the report, Lu Bu pointed his halberd forward without hesitation, and led his bodyguards and cavalry into the enemy's formation like a strong wind.
Lu Bu's war horse was like a dragon, and his iron halberd was like flying. Amidst thunderous roars, he wantonly devoured the fresh lives.Hundreds of fierce soldiers followed closely behind, unstoppable and unstoppable.
Zhang Fei ordered the soldiers to avoid his sharp edge, get out of the way, and block Lu Bu's back, trapping him in the formation, and he will be killed when reinforcements arrive.
Lü Bu joined Guo Xun and ordered his personal guards to stand guard on both sides of the infantry, struggling to break through the encirclement, but the enemy was surrounded by layers of troops, and they were overwhelming.
Lu Bu was furious, turned his horse's head suddenly, and single-handedly killed the center of the formation.The enemy soldiers couldn't resist, and were killed by Lu Bu and scattered and fled.Lu Bu galloped his horse like flying, and charged directly at the banner of the Chinese army.The enemy soldiers discovered Lu Bu's intention and tried their best to block it.Zhang Fei also brought people to kill him quickly.In desperation, Lu Bu stabbed the horse's butt with his knife.The war horse was in extreme pain, soaring into the air, and bumped into the big banner.The flagpole with thick arms snapped in two, and the big flag fell to the ground with a crash.
The Xuzhou army was in chaos.
Guo Xun took the opportunity to command the soldiers to fight out.Lü Bu's personal guard cavalry immediately split up half of their troops, turned back and rushed into the enemy's line to rescue Lv Bu.
Zhang Fei was furious, roared loudly, and aimed at Lu Bu with his spear.Lu Bu was unafraid, the iron halberd flew up and down, fighting and walking.The surrounding enemy soldiers lost their heads when they couldn't dodge a little.
Zhang Fei was so angry that he cursed and roared repeatedly, "Spread...scatter...shoot him, shoot him..."
The enemy retreated quickly, and Lu Bu's was even faster. He always appeared in places where the crowd was densest, with a halberd in his hand like lightning, drinking the blood of the enemy soldiers while making a terrifying scream of chasing souls.
Suddenly, Lv Bu roared, and with his halberd in his hand, his bloody body soared into the air, gliding a few steps in the air like a nine-day black eagle, over the crowd, and bumped into the enemy cavalry galloping from a distance.The enemy cavalry was caught off guard and was hit by Lu Bu, who let out a scream.The bodies of the two were stacked together and flew out in the air.The halberd in Lu Bu's hand hit the ground again, and with the strength of the rebound, the man rose instead of falling, and landed steadily on the horse's back.
"Let's go..." Lu Bu punched the horse, the horse suffered from pain, jumped up with a long hiss, bumped into several people, and galloped away.
"Surround him and kill him..." Zhang Fei's eyes were about to burst into flames. He held up his spear and chased him with all his bodyguards.
Lu Bu, who was galloping on his horse, turned around suddenly, and shot a long arrow at Zhang Fei.
Without even thinking about it, Zhang Fei threw off the spear, rolled over with his head in his arms, and rolled off the horse.
"嗖...嗖...嗖..." Three sharp arrows roared past.One was nailed into the horse's neck, the other shot the guards behind Zhang Fei off the horse, and the other shot through the air and fell into the sky full of arrows.
One bow and three arrows, all three arrows fired together.Before landing, Zhang Fei looked at the three arrows flying past his eyes like lightning, and couldn't help but exclaim.The horse hit by the arrow stood upright, hissed a few times in pain, and then fell to the ground.Zhang Fei just wanted to stand up, but was swept by the horse's front hooves, his body flew out horizontally, and he fell so blinded and dizzy.
Lu Bu's horned bow rang repeatedly, and his long arrows flew like flying, shooting down the enemy cavalry one after another.The enemy cavalry was so terrified that they dared not pursue them any more.
Lv Bu's personal guard cavalry were rushing forward with all their strength, when they suddenly saw Lv Bu coming out single-handedly, they all raised their arms and cheered.
"Go... let's go... let's get out!" Lu Bu raised his halberd high and shouted wildly.
Everyone rushed forward, protecting Lu Bu and leaving.

Kuai Yue, Xin Ping, Xia Houyuan and others arrived later, and nearly [-] troops quickly advanced towards Pingyang Pavilion.
Xin Ping was stationed on a soil slope, looking around nervously.He has learned from the past and is very worried about being raided by the northern Xinjiang cavalry.
"The Northern Army has set up an ambush twice at Pingyang Pavilion. If they want to attack us this time, they will not choose Pingyang Pavilion again. They will probably choose the southern or northern plains of Pingyang Pavilion." Xin Ping pointed to the vast plains around him, worried He said, "We should densely deploy scouts within thirty miles to prevent accidents."
Kuai Yue shook his head, "That is to send them to die. It is only seventy miles from Yancheng to Pingyang Pavilion, and the distance between the armies of the two sides is only a few miles. He was killed by the opponent's scouts." Kuai Yue paused, looked at Xin Ping's worried face, and comforted him in a low voice, "Don't worry too much. It was twenty miles behind us at first, and brother Jing Sheng will also bring us in the afternoon. With the army going north, the three armies are very close to each other, even if there are cavalry from the northern border, we can quickly get support."
"Now there are northern Xinjiang iron cavalry on the Hanoi and Yanzhou battlefields. There are not many iron cavalry directly opposite us. It is estimated that they are some Huns. In addition, we have chariots that can form a chariot formation. There are tens of thousands of cavalry who have fought against the iron cavalry. Soldiers, with strong bows and ballistas, 10,000+ follow-up troops, and sufficient precautions and preparations, can’t they defeat them? When Li Hong was in Xiliang, he repeatedly defeated troops several times his own with infantry battles. Hu Qi, they can win, why can't we?"
Xin Ping smiled wryly, and leaned into Kuai Yue's ear and said, "It is precisely because Li Hong has rich experience in defeating iron cavalry with an army of infantry that he will not make the same mistake. Do you think he is Thunder in June? Lian, Tuoba Feng? He is Li Hong, the leopard Li Hong." Xin Ping emphasized his tone and said word by word, "He is a leopard."
Kuai Yue was a little dissatisfied. He glared at Xin Ping, "Do you think you can defeat Li Hong by defending Guandu to the death? He withdrew this year and won't come next year? There will always be war horses in Northern Xinjiang, and there will always be war horses." There are sturdy cavalry, is it because of this that we have to give up the Northern Expedition, give up the pacification of the world, and launch the great cause of revitalizing the country?"
Xin Ping didn't speak anymore, he closed his mouth tightly and said nothing.These people are crazy now, dazzled by the victories in front of them, they have completely forgotten the lesson of the disastrous defeat in the Jizhou War.How imaginable is the retreat of the Northern Xinjiang Army across the board today and the battle the year before last.Li Hong started his career by relying on iron cavalry, and he is good at riding and fighting. As long as he is given a chance, he will use iron cavalry to tear us to pieces.
"Yiedu (Kuiyue), let the ministries get closer and slow down, we just need to reach Pingyang Pavilion before dark." Xin Ping thought for a while, but couldn't help but persuade, "Soldiers continue to march , Fighting continuously, I am already exhausted, it is better to slow down."
"We are tired, and the Northern Xinjiang Army is even more tired. Do you think they can still fight?" Kuai Yue sneered, "The competition between the two sides is now about resilience and physical strength. Whoever can persevere to the end will be the winner."
Kuai Yue ignored Xin Ping, ordered the army to speed up the advance, and urged Yuan Shao to lead the Chinese army to catch up as soon as possible.If the Northern Frontier Army cannot be severely damaged this time, and Yuan Shao's strength cannot be consumed in large quantities, even if he wins the Central Plains War, it will be difficult to have any impact on the situation in the world, and it will not be of any benefit to the Great Han Society.If the strength of Hebei still exists, Yuan Shaoquan will take over the Central Plains, and the power to usurp the Dahan will become stronger and stronger, and the Dahan will lose hope of revival.

A puff of smoke and dust suddenly rolled up in the sky, and then an army of iron cavalry rushed out of the horizon, roaring like a tide.The sound of galloping horses approached from far away, getting louder and gradually deafening.The ground trembled violently at this moment.
The sound of war drums for alarm resounded across the field.
The soldiers of the coalition army quickly formed more than a dozen square formations, and erected huge shields in front of the formations.All kinds of chariots were pushed to the front row and arranged in a staggered manner.Hundreds of crossbows lined up, opening their mouths wide open.In the battle formation, more than 1 strong archers are ready to go.
Northern Xinjiang cavalry charged forward in a mighty manner, and hundreds of black panther battle flags fluttered in the wind like a rainbow.
"Shoot...shoot...shoot..." Before the cavalry army approached, Kuai Yue gave the order to shoot.Although the first round of volley could not hit the enemy's cavalry, it was a huge boost to the morale of one's own side.
In an instant, the arrows were like locusts, covering the sky and the sun.
=
"Woo...Ming..."
The horn blared.
The northern Xinjiang cavalry gradually slowed down, and dozens of cavalry rushed out first, approaching the enemy's line for observation.
A gray cloud of dust swept across the sky, and the sky suddenly became dark.
Kuai was more frightened and ordered again and again, "Shoot... give me consecutive shots..."
The roar of the ballista instantly rang out.
The horn sounded again, and the smoke and dust grew even bigger, while the roar of galloping horses gradually faded away.
Northern Xinjiang cavalry withdrew.
=
The soldiers of the coalition army couldn't believe it. They looked at the iron cavalry that disappeared into the sky for a long time, and they couldn't imagine that they had pushed back the most powerful army in the world today.
"Boom...boom..." The sound of war drums suddenly soared into the sky.
The soldiers were awakened by the high-pitched drums, and everyone raised their weapons at the same time, roaring wildly. The excited cheers lasted for a long time, and the heavy sound waves pierced through the clouds and rocks and went straight to the sky.
"We won, we won." Kuai Gao raised his arms and roared at Xin Ping repeatedly.
Xin Ping looked indifferent, looking thoughtfully at the dust and mist still floating in the air.The iron cavalry of the Northern Xinjiang Army was not as many as imagined, not even 1.What about their cavalry?Is it back to aid Jizhou?If Zang Ba and Chen Deng have entered Jizhou and Li Hong wants to stop them as quickly as possible, then sending cavalry back to aid is the best way.Is it really?
=
When the allied forces advanced to thirty miles away from Pingyang, Lu Bu and Yan Liang turned back to block the enemy again.
This time the coalition forces were unwilling to fight with the northern army. They were worried that they would be attacked by the northern cavalry after the formation dispersed, so they only fought with arrows to keep the northern army in front of the two armies.
The two sides stood in a stalemate for a while, and the sky was filled with smoke and dust again, and the northern Xinjiang cavalry appeared again.Probably because the infantry army failed to lure the opponent out of attack, the iron cavalry army ran for hundreds of steps before turning around and retreating.
Kuai Yue and others figured out the intention of the Northern Xinjiang Army, and the [-] troops immediately hugged each other tightly, and their marching speed was greatly slowed down.
Kuai Yueshu told Yuan Shao and Liu Biao that some of the northern Xinjiang cavalry had returned to aid Jizhou. With the current number of northern Xinjiang cavalry, it was obviously impossible to make a breakthrough from the front. Therefore, he estimated that the Northern Xinjiang Army would give up the strategy of using iron cavalry to attack the coalition forces and turn to And take advantage of its powerful infantry army, strong cities such as Baima and Puyang, and the fact that the battlefield is close to the Yellow River, and the food and grass can be replenished nearby, etc., to continue to confront us.In order to shatter the northern army's dream of sticking to the south bank of the Yellow River and occupying Yanzhou, and also to prevent the northern army from making a breakthrough from the battlefield on both wings, so that our strategy of annihilating the enemy will fall short, please join us quickly and attack Pingyang Pavilion together , so that tomorrow they will go north to Baima City and drive the Northern Xinjiang Army across the Yellow River as quickly as possible.
Yuan Shao led Tao Yi, Wang Mo, Ji Ling, Sun Fu, Lu Su and other [-] troops to follow the vanguard and walked slowly.After receiving Kuai Yue's letter, Yuan Shao finally let go of his tight heart.
He is most worried about the northern Xinjiang iron cavalry, but it seems that Li Hong has not deployed the main force of the iron cavalry on the frontal battlefield.After the food and grass in Wuchao and Gushi were burned, Li Hong probably changed his strategy and planned to withdraw his troops to defend the front line of Baima and Puyang. Therefore, he dispatched all the main force of the cavalry to the two-wing battlefield, in order to use the advantage of the iron cavalry to quickly make a breakthrough in the two-wing battlefield , thus threatening Henan and the food road of the coalition forces, and dragging the coalition forces in Henan.This strategy is indeed good, but Li Hong did not expect the attack speed of the coalition forces to be too fast, his deployment was disrupted, and he lost sight of the other.This is the best opportunity to defeat the Northern Xinjiang Army, so don't miss it.
Yuan Shao was concerned, and then ordered all the ministries to speed up and quickly close the distance with the forward army.
