Summoning of God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 40 Encirclement and Suppression of the Remnants of Xiliang
"My lord, the last general has captured Chang'an City, and has already controlled the treasury and the imperial palace, but the little emperor is not in the city."

Han Wu has already led his troops to Chang'an City, and it is now [-]:[-] in the afternoon, and the remnants of the battle that took place in the morning have also been cleaned up.

Zhang He knelt on one knee to report the situation to Han Wu, and Han Wu nodded with satisfaction, rewarded Zhang He with a lot of gold, silver and silk, and named Zhang He a strong crossbow general.

"Jiao Chu Zhu Ling is in charge of guarding Chang'an City, Dian Wei and Geng Wu will fight with me, and go to a place twenty miles southwest of Chang'an City to support Cao Cao!"

Han Wu directly ordered that after a short rest, he was ready to continue fighting to support Cao Cao.

Cao Cao led Li Jue and Guo Si out of Chang'an City, which gave Han Wu a chance to successfully attack Chang'an, but he himself may not have enough strength to deal with Li Jue and Guo Si.

Therefore, Han Wu intends to help Cao Cao, which can be regarded as letting the bloodthirsty tiger guards show off their tiger power!

Twenty miles southwest of Chang'an City, Cao Cao was watching the battle below on a hilltop, and he couldn't help sighing.

"Zhongde, the Xiliang army is really brave. Unexpectedly, we ambushed them in advance and restricted their cavalry's charge with tripping ropes, but they were still deadlocked."

Cao Cao stood on the top of the hill and sighed. This is a protracted battle. The Xiliang army without the horse charge ability has no advantage in foot combat.

However, the Xiliang army won because of the large number of people, so the Yanzhou army was unable to take down Li Jue and Guo Si's army for a while.

It's just that they have snatched the little emperor, because the Xiliang army protecting the little emperor has been wiped out.

"Everyone go to me and take the emperor back. If anyone dares to back down, I will be the first to cut him off!"

Li Jue's eyes are already bloodshot now, he and Guo Si are all attacking bravely, and the soldiers under his command are also constantly aggressive.

Even Xiahoudun avoids his sharp edge. It's not that he doesn't have the confidence to defeat Li Jue and Guo Si in terms of force, but that the current Xiliang army is a little crazy.

The Xiliang army under Li Jue and Guo Si is different from those Xiliang soldiers, they really have a strong combat effectiveness.

"My lord, I think based on the time, Han Wu should have brought troops to support, and we will definitely win this battle."

Cheng Yu calculated the time. He thought that Han Wu should be coming soon, and there would be no suspense in this battle.

But Cao Cao sighed faintly. To be honest, he didn't want Han Wu to come and join in the fun. That would make Yanzhou lose a lot of benefits.

Han Wu wants to control Chang'an City, Cao Cao has no strength to compete with him, and eating Li Jue and Guo Si's army is his only benefit.

Although Li Jue and Guo Si wanted to retreat, Cao Cao couldn't stay, but the little emperor and these strategic materials could be harvested by the Yanzhou army.

If Han Wu came, then the distribution of the surrendered troops and the distribution of the weapons and leather armor of the Xiliang Army would be very troublesome again.

"Brothers, press me up. They Xiliang thieves destroyed our home and left us without land. We want to avenge our murdered fathers and villagers!"

Xiahoudun went into battle in person, he was constantly motivating the fighting spirit of his soldiers, and what he said was very down-to-earth and inspiring.

The best way to improve the morale of these soldiers besides using rewards is to make them angry.

After the generals of Yanzhou heard the words of the general, their morale increased greatly, and they all began to attack the Xiliang army.

For a while, the two sides that had been stalemate began to see changes in the fighting situation, but in fact the gap was not that big.

The right wing of the Yanzhou Army was still suppressed by the Xiliang Army, while the left wing army, inspired by Xiahou Dun, suppressed the Xiliang Army.

Just as the two armies were fighting in full swing, there was a sound of heavy footsteps, and dust was raised.

This kind of footsteps sounds very steady, and almost every step can be heard clearly, which shows how neatly the army is marching.

The sound of such footsteps, as well as the dust not far away, shocked Cao Cao, because it was a typical sign of heavy armored infantry.

"This is the Jizhou Army, my lord, it's Han Wu! Unexpectedly, they have a heavy armored infantry team. This is really a torrent of steel!"

When Xun Yu saw Yangchen not far away, his heart trembled, and he was very surprised at Jizhou's financial resources.

Although the bloodthirsty tiger guards were not heavily armored infantry, the coverage rate of the armor on their body had already exceeded [-]% of the area.

But to build such a heavy armored infantry team of more than 2000 people, it is almost exhausting all the inventory and steel production for Jizhou.

It's just that Xun Yu would never guess that Han Wu has a God of War summoning system, and he can spend a lot of meritorious service in exchange for pig iron.

Cao Cao was shocked and speechless, because this heavy armored infantry could be the nemesis of any unit!

Whether it is an offensive battle or a defensive battle, even against light cavalry, heavy armored infantry is definitely not weak, and even has certain restraint against light cavalry.

The only army that can restrain heavy infantry is heavy cavalry, but it takes more energy to raise a heavy cavalry team.

"That's right, the tiger and leopard cavalry that the Lord is building are just light cavalry, and the number of them is not particularly large, but it has already put a lot of pressure on Yanzhou."

"I didn't expect that Jizhou could raise a heavy infantry regiment. This is really scary. No wonder Jizhou has been quiet for a while. It turns out that it is recuperating."

Cheng Yu couldn't help swallowing. He also understood the consumption of heavy infantry very well. This 2000-man heavy infantry army was probably comparable to the consumption of 1 people in the Yanzhou Army.

Han Wu saw Cao Cao standing on the top of the hill watching the battle from a distance. He guessed that Cao Cao must be very surprised now, so he smiled.

"Geng Wu listened to the order and led the troops to charge to the left flank of the Xiliang Army. Dian Wei was responsible for protecting my safety, and the bloodthirsty tiger guards attacked the Xiliang Army's central army!"

Han Wu gave the order directly, and asked Geng Wu to charge first, disrupting the Xiliang Army's lineup from the enemy's rear.

When Geng Wu heard about the general, he immediately drew out his saber, rode his horse and charged towards the Xiliang army, and the blood of the soldiers behind him was boiling.

Under the leadership of Dian Wei, the bloodthirsty tiger guards took out their swords and shields one after another, and kept approaching the central army of the Xiliang army step by step.

"What? There are reinforcements in Yanzhou? The banner is Han, this is Jizhou's army, and there are heavy infantry. It's a trick!"

"Everyone obeys the order, the front team turns into the rear team, charge with me, and break out! Guo Si, you break out from the left wing, and we will meet at Fufeng."

When Li Jue saw that there was an army rushing over behind him, he was shocked because there were heavy infantry on the other side.

The bloodthirsty tiger guards were like a torrent of steel. The sword and shield soldiers in the front row cooperated with the pike soldiers in the second row, causing great casualties to the Xiliang army.

The sword and shield soldiers already have strong defense and close combat capabilities, and they are all heavy armored infantry, so the Xiliang army is even more irresistible.

The Xiliang soldiers stabbed the shield of the Bloodthirsty Tiger Guard with almost no effect, but the pikemen of the Bloodthirsty Tiger Guard were able to pierce through them.

Moreover, the bloodthirsty tiger guard is like a torrent of steel, and its defense is very strong, even like a mysterious turtle with thorns.

"Everyone, charge me, and take down all these Xiliang thieves. The reward is 100 taels for the person who gets the head of Li Jue and Guo Si!"

When Xiahou Dun saw the Jizhou army coming to support him, he immediately roared and ordered his soldiers to charge to cooperate with the Jizhou army to besiege Li Jue and Guo Si.

Although I was also shocked that the Jizhou Army had heavy armored infantry, Xiahou Dun was a general after all, and he didn't pay too much attention to this on the battlefield.

On the battlefield, the most important thing is to have a good grasp of the fighters. As for the situation of the friendly forces, there is not much need to pay attention to it.

Xiahoudun is also familiar with military books, and he understands that the opportunity to fight is rare now, so he immediately picked up a few Xiliang soldiers with his spear.

"Dianwei, get ready to charge and take down these Xiliang troops! Tell them with blood what a bloodthirsty tiger guard is!"

Han Wu said something to Dian Wei, and Dian Wei immediately ordered the bloodthirsty tiger guards to stand apart and charge directly.

"Everyone, rush over and take down these Xiliang thieves! If anyone kills less, see how I deal with him when I go back!"

Dian Wei let out a loud roar, and he immediately ordered the bloodthirsty guards to charge, leaving only 200 people guarding Han Wu.

These 200 people are the strongest fighters selected by Dian Wei. They are the guards responsible for guarding the safety of Han Wu, and they will not move an inch no matter what happens.

The bloodthirsty tiger guards rushed forward one after another, and they rushed towards the Xiliang army like a torrent of steel.

Sword and shield soldiers don't look at anything, except to chop down the enemies around them with their swords, or hit them with their shields.

Even if he hit the enemy and fell to the ground, he would not suffer too much damage, because when the spearmen of the Xiliang army stabbed the bloodthirsty tiger guards, they could only slightly injure them.

Just penetrating a part of the battle armor can only cause skin trauma to the bloodthirsty tiger guards, so each of the bloodthirsty tiger guards stepped forward bravely.

Although the armor provided to the Bloodthirsty Tiger Guards was by no means standard equipment for the heavy infantry of later generations, it now seemed that it was more than enough to deal with these Xiliang troops who couldn't even wear cloth armor.

The bloodthirsty tiger guards who were stabbed became even more violent. The blood and pain made them completely crazy. After all, their injuries could not affect their battle at all.

A tiger's roar came from their mouths, and each of the bloodthirsty tiger guards beheaded the enemy soldiers around them as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

"Ah! I can't take it anymore, I want to surrender, they are demons, I can't take it anymore, I put down my weapon and surrender!"

The Xiliang army saw that the bloodthirsty tiger guards were so crazy. Although they were small in number, only more than 2000, they beheaded tens of thousands of Xiliang troops in just ten minutes.

A heavy armored infantry is enough to quickly end the battle, but the disadvantage is that the physical consumption will be very high.

The current bloodthirsty tiger guards are almost reaching the upper limit of physical exertion, and they cannot fight for a long time.

After all, the battle armor and shield are very heavy. It is very difficult to march with these things and then fight.

"No one is allowed to surrender, whoever surrenders will be killed, have you heard it, and everyone breaks out!"

Seeing the soldiers around him surrendering one after another, Li Jue became furious and pierced the neck of a bloodthirsty tiger guard with his long spear.

A bloodthirsty tiger guard fell immediately, and Li Jue's lieutenant also fought with the bloodthirsty tiger guard, beheading many bloodthirsty tiger guards.

When Han Wu saw this scene, he felt a little distressed, because every bloodthirsty tiger guard consumed a lot of resources to raise them.

"Dian Wei, go and bring back the heads of Li Jue and Guo Si, capture the king first, don't let the bloodthirsty tiger guard lose too much."

Han Wu ordered Dian Wei to fetch the heads of Li Jue and Guo Si directly, so that they would not kill the bloodthirsty tiger guard again.

Although the elite soldiers of the bloodthirsty tiger guards are strong, they still have no power to fight back against these second- and third-rate generals.

Dian Wei had long wanted to rush over and kill Li Jue and Guo Si, because he personally selected the bloodthirsty tiger guards one by one, and each one was a good seed.

"Hey! The Xiliang dog thief is here to take your life, and watch me, Dianwei, tear your corpses into thousands of pieces! Bloodthirsty tiger guard, charge with me!"

After Dian Wei heard the lord's order, he ordered the bloodthirsty tiger guards around Han Wu to protect the lord, and rode his horse towards Li Jue and Guo Si.

When Li Jue and Guo Si heard the roar, they were shocked, and naturally they knew how powerful Dian Wei was.

But Dian Wei rode his horse and rushed in front of Li Jue and Guo Si. The two knew that they could not avoid it, so they had to join forces to resist Dian Wei's attack.
