Chapter 106: The broken Lv Bu has 12,000 words of support today)
"Is Shan Yu dead?" Hu Zhen's face turned green and his tone was a little trembling: "How did you die?"
The Xiliang cavalryman hurriedly said, "Prince Shan is in charge of the intersection of Beicheng Street and directs the soldiers to capture the north of the county. Unexpectedly, the enemy thieves were cunning and sent out brave soldiers who were not afraid of death to rush to kill. Prison Shan is caught off guard and was killed by the enemy thieves. At present, there are kings and two Simas, who are in charge of the overall situation, lead troops to temporarily withdraw from Beixian. However, Sun Jian himself has integrated his troops and headed straight for Xixian!"
Is Sun Jian here?
Hu Zhen took a deep breath, tried his best to suppress the anger in his chest, cursed Shan Qi and said, "I have no plans, I have been trying hard to cultivate him. I have tried my best to take advantage of him. He was a thief. He died in a small way, but he ruined the great affairs of the Protector!"
Lu Bu said slowly: "Major Protector, it is still difficult for us to capture the counties on all sides. Now one side has been broken, but I am afraid that these three sides will be difficult to maintain for a long time."
Lu Bu's unhurried look made Hu Zhen even more angry.
Under Dong Zhuo, he regarded the generals of Xiliang as the most important, but as the governor of Bingzhou, Lu Bu relied on the follower of the Bingzhou army and never respected the generals of Xiliang.
The relationship between the two sides is quite dissatisfied with each other.
The Xiliang Army Captain died, and Lu Bu had no feelings.
"What should we do if we follow the previous opinions?"
Lu Bu said calmly: "It is best to withdraw troops for the time being."
Hu Zhen's heart sank a little.
He knew that the sky had begun to get colder, and the offensive at the North Gate was disintegrated by Sun Jian. If he arrived later, the Xicheng side might not be able to attack. Now is not a good time to continue to stalemate with Sun Jian's army.
Hu Zhen felt quite depressed.
In the following orders from the Philippines, he only needed to eliminate the seven thousand Jingzhou troops.
Who would have thought that the Jingzhou Army and Sun Jian were stationed in Yang and were protected by Sun Jian’s army.
To destroy the Jingzhou army, we must first destroy Sun Jian...
I am afraid no one in the Xiliang army can do it.
Hu Zhen and Sun Jian have been fighting for half a year, and they originally lost more than they won.
If the sudden night attack fails today, it is probably impossible to attack the Jingzhou army in a short period of time.
Lu Bu was right, and now he had to give up.
But Lu Bu's appearance really made Hu Zhen uncomfortable.
At this moment, Hu Zhen could vaguely hear the sound of shouting coming from the north.
Although there is still a distance, since you can already hear the other party's voice, you may arrive at the battlefield soon.
It would seem quite bad if they were attacked by them and Cheng Pu's troops guarding the west.
Hu Zhen made a quick decision and ordered Lu Bu to say, "Fengxian, I will order the troops and horses to retreat temporarily. You will be cut off here, so don't let Sun Jian's army travel west to the people of Liyang!"
"kindness?"
Lu Bu frowned, feeling quite unhappy: "Let someone break the rear?"
Hu Zhen narrowed his eyes: "Why, can Ben Dugu even lose the power to cut off your rear?"
Lu Bu took a deep breath.
Hu Zhen clearly asked his Xiliang army to retreat first, and asked his Bingzhou army to stop Sun Jian's army and Jingzhou army for him.
What is this arrangement?
Isn’t this using the Bingzhou army to block the knife for the Xiliang army?
But the military orders are like a mountain. Hu Zhen is the gubernator after all, and Lu Bu is under his control at present, and he cannot disobey the military orders, so he can only accept the orders.
After Lu Bu responded to Hu Zhen's military order, Hu Zhen immediately ordered the Western Liang army to give up the attack on the county, and Zhuo Ling the Western Liang army in the east and south to also conquer the troops, leaving Lu Bu's Bingzhou army to cut off the rear.
Cheng Pu, who was responsible for guarding the west of Yang people, was quite mature. After seeing the Xiliang army withdraw, he did not rashly leave the county to pursue him. He just ordered the soldiers of various departments to rebuild various fortifications on the streets and wait for the battle to prevent the Xiliang army from returning.
As for Cheng Pu, chasing the enemy and making meritorious contributions is a big deal, and it is a big deal to protect the Yang talents according to orders.
Soon, the soldiers and horses in the North City led by Sun Jian, Sun Ben and others came to the west of the city.
Hu Zhen's troops had slowly retreated, while the Bingzhou Army, who remained here and broke the rear, set up formations outside the county, carefully watching Sun Jian's every move.
Lu Bu dared not neglect at all, because he had fought with Sun Jian in the past six months.
According to Sun Jian's character, he was suddenly attacked tonight. Now he has moved back to the disadvantage and has a moment of counterattack, he will naturally not let it go in vain.
If he brought out all the Bingzhou army, Lu Bu would not be afraid of Sun Jian, but Dong Zhuo was still reserved for Lu Bu. This time, he would only lead 10,000 Bingzhou soldiers to help him.
It is true that there are many cavalry under Lu Bu's command, but this is not a problem in Sun Jian's eyes. First, it is not a plain here, and the enemy cavalry's attack ability is limited.
Secondly, Sun Jian also fought with the other party many times, and he also knew the tactics of the Xiliang Army or the Bingzhou Army.
He is not afraid of losing, but he is afraid that the other party will not dare to fight.
Seeing that the Bingzhou army had lined up, Sun Jian ordered Sun Ben and Zhu Zhi to say, "You and the two of you are leading troops and horses to detour from left and right, and rushing from both wings. Have you seen the black-armored general riding a red battle horse in the middle? That is Lu Bu, who is in charge of the Bingzhou army for Dong Zhuo. You lead the crowd to detour. If you are close to the range of his shooting, you will order him to shoot with a crossbow and be sure to shoot him!"
"only!"
"only!"
...
Not long after Sun Jian's army arrived in the west of the city, Liu Qi led Wen Pin and Huang Zhong went straight through the county town from the center of the county, and along the way they met Li Dian and Zhang Yun, and finally with Cai Xun and Kuai Yue and other troops. Through the pathway between Cai Kuai and others in the west of the county, they came outside the county to watch Sun Jian's army and Lu Bu fight.
When Liu Qi and others arrived, Sun Jian had already fought with Lu Bujun.
Cai Xunyao looked at the war in the distance and asked, "Young Master, Sun Jian has rushed into the Bingzhou military formation. What should we do? Can we help from the side?"
Liu Qi nodded and said, "It's all allies, so it's natural to help, but Sun Polu is a competitive person. Since he has fought with the enemy, he should not fight with him by himself. He just needs to help from the side and find opportunities to help."
"only!"
Liu Qi raised his head, squinted his eyes and looked at the other party's military formation, and asked in confusion: "I don't know who is the commander of the broken army?"
Kuai Yue said on the side: "Yue has just asked Cheng Pu and knew that the other party was Bingzhou County led by Lu Bu in Jiuyuan."
"Is it him?" Liu Qi's heart trembled when he heard this.
The name Lu Bu is really familiar to Liu Qi.
In Mr. Luo Guanzhong's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Lu Bu rode the fiercest war horse and the most beautiful woman in the Eastern Han Dynasty. He was invincible with a square sky painting halberd, and was arrogant in the world, and could compete with thousands of people...
Of course, that was a fabrication of the Romance. On the real battlefield, no matter how hard Lu Bu could fight, he could not control the situation of the war with his own strength.
As an excellent general, he may be able to lead his soldiers to charge together, kill the enemy and make achievements, and to boost morale, but no matter how hard he can fight, if he does not have excellent soldiers as the foundation, the final result will be nothing more than a failure.
Liu Qi and Kuai Yue stayed there, and he sent Huang Zhong, Wen Pin, Li Dian, Cai Xun and others to help Sun Jian.
...
Sun Jian's army had already fought with Lu Bu's army. The tactics of both sides were very similar. They both entered the opponent's army formation at the fastest speed and fought at close range.
In Liu Qi's concept, the best way to fight against a unit with more cavalry commanded by Lu Bu is to shoot the previous round with a rain of arrows, to deal with the enemy severely, and then take advantage of the riots to engage in conflict.
It is best to be able to not be close to each other.
But it is obvious that when facing cavalry from different regions, one cannot use inertial tactics, and one must change its tactical strategies according to local conditions.
The reason why Sun Jian quickly met Lu Bu in close combat was because the cavalry under Lu Bu was not only able to charge... They were also good at shooting!
The cavalry of Bingzhou were all county soldiers of Bingzhou. Bingzhou was an important area for the Eastern Han Dynasty to guard the border for a hundred years. It was vast and sparsely populated. It was a pair of brothers and brothers with Liangzhou. It was constantly scattered and sparsely populated, so it was considered a vicious and vicious land.
Since the Southern Xiongnu royal court was in Meiji County, Xihe County, Bingzhou, and wars were triggered from time to time, the overall combat quality of the Bingzhou cavalry was quite high.
Perhaps because he has been dealing with the Southern Xiongnu for many years, the Bingzhou cavalry has a very high cavalry and shooting ability.
The Youzhou cavalry also has this characteristic.
Sun Jian seemed to know the strength of the Bingzhou cavalry very well, so he did not adopt the strategy of long-range injury to the enemy.
Although there are many war horses on the other side, they are around the county town. The mountains and forests are relatively abundant, and there is little room for a turn around and charge. Fighting with them nearby, you can kill the enemy to the greatest extent by assassinating the war horses.
