Rangers of the Three Kingdoms - C441
“Since all of you think so, even if it’s for the sake of the Zhanzhou cavalry, then I, Lv Bu, will once again be an evil person! If he could get the Prime Minister to abandon Hu Zhen, it could also be considered as finding a way for the westering officer to survive. Even if a portion of the westering officer s were to be killed or injured, to the entire westering officer, it would not be over. ”
The Fuyoshan in early spring was still cold. The bare branches trembled in the cold wind, without a trace of warmth. Groups of hungry crows circled the sky above the gathering men for a long time. They seemed to have smelled death and even called out to their companions.
Sun Jian brought his generals and stood on top of the city walls where the men were gathered. When they saw the West Cold Army Camp not far away, they involuntarily clenched their fists. His eyes were blazing with blazing flames, the blood in his entire body was boiling, he wanted nothing more than to fight West Cold Army.
Not only did the Duke of Guandong look down upon him, even the various counties of the Henan Province began to hesitate. Although he held the title of Arrowhead of Henan Province, the various counties of the Henan Province were watching on the sidelines. Even the soldiers that were forcefully taken over by Sun Jian had the intention of abandoning him.
Sun Jian was not a person who would easily admit defeat. Furthermore, he knew that in this chaotic world, the only thing he had left to do was to fight in the army. Since he lost to Xu Rong at the end of last year, he was not discouraged at all.
After knowing that Dong Zhuo was planning to increase the number of Liang County s, Sun Jian knew that Dong Zhuo was still plotting against him. He immediately went against them head on, led the army and pushed the troops to the north. The Yang People’s Gathering was only a few dozen miles away from Guang Cheng, so Sun Jian was prepared to risk his life to fight the West Cold Army.
Sun Jian did not think that he would lose to Xu Rong, Hu Zhen, he just blamed himself for being unlucky, because when he sneaked an attack on Hu Zhen, he coincidentally met with Xu Rong who had come to provide support. He did not believe that his luck would always be that bad. Furthermore, from the previous battle, he had also experienced Hu Zhen’s ability and was confident that he could defeat him.
“Tomorrow, there will be another bloody battle!” Sun Jian waved his fist fiercely, and bellowed. “He was a little impatient, eager to get back the glory of being a military general from the West Cold Army.” Tomorrow, I want to let everyone in the world see what it means to become a fierce tiger in the east of the river. ”
“Lord General must not be careless, no matter if it’s the West Cold Army, the northern troop, or the West Garden Army, all of them are the elite masters of my big sized man.” Cheng Pu who was standing behind Sun Jian was not as agitated as Sun Jian. He was afraid that Sun Jian would underestimate him and rush in, so he immediately warned him with good intentions.
The three hundred thousand strong army under Dong Zhuo’s command were almost all West Cold Army, Northern Army and West Garden Army. Not only were they well-equipped, they were also skilled in battle formation and had been through hundreds of battles.
As for the soldiers under Sun Jian’s command, only a small portion of them were County soldier who had experienced bandit battles. Most of the soldiers were farmers yesterday and did not undergo much training, their equipment was also poor.
However, Sun Jian had one huge advantage, and that was that he had Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Zhu Zhi, Xu Kun, Sun Jing, Sun Ben, Sun He and other powerful and loyal generals. In this era of cold weapons, a good general was the backbone of an army.
“Lord General, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the Yang Cultivators to gather at the city walls to resist the attacks of the West Cold Army. Furthermore, we do not have much food, and cannot withstand the long siege from the West Cold Army, so we need to finish this quickly. ” Huang Gai pointed to West Cold Army’s camp and suggested: “According to exorcism’s report, the West Cold Army Camp is split into three parts. The Front Camp is the cavalry general, the middle camp is the general of the army, the infantry general is Hua Xiong, and the third battalion is very far away, so the three of them do not seem to be on good terms. If we sneak attacked them at night, we would definitely be able to defeat the West Cold Army in one go. ”
“Mm …” You’re right. ” Sun Jian nodded his head, and said thoughtfully: “I think that Hu Zhen is an incompetent person, how can he suppress Lv Bu? And Lv Bu, the new Dong Zhuo, would definitely be excluded by the Xiliang General, so how could he submit to Hu Zhen? Even if it’s Hua Xiong, with abilities and martial arts skills that far surpass him, how would he be willing to submit to Hu Zhen? ”
“It’s precisely because of this that if we ambushed the West Cold Army overnight and went straight for Hu Zhen’s middle camp, Lv Bu and Hua Xiong would definitely not save him.” Huang Gai saw that Sun Jian had confirmed his analysis, and could not help but say excitedly: “Even if they save us, we can take advantage of the night sky to escape.”
“Rather than defending passively, it’s better to attack first. Take advantage of the West Cold Army’s unstable footing and catch him off guard!” Sun Jian waved his fists with all his might and ordered loudly, “Command all the soldiers to cook, eat a meal, and attack the West Cold Army Camp when they are ugly.”
It was unknown if it was the heavens’ will, but in the evening, the clouds gradually thickened, like a huge pot hanging over a gathering of men. The sky was especially dark, and there was not a single trace of light in the sky.
It was supposed to be the time of the crowing of the chickens, but they didn’t hear any crowing. Instead, it was Sun Jian’s soldiers who started to get busy. They opened the gates a little, and the whole party came out almost in full force, and soon disappeared into the night.
Sun Jian was betting everything on this move, there was no way out for himself. He had clearly told the soldiers that they could not hold on to the male army, and that they could either kill the West Cold Army or be killed by the West Cold Army. Furthermore, he himself knew, if he lost again, Yuan Shu would probably not give him another chance.
The West Cold Army’s camp was not far from where the Yang people were gathered. Furthermore, Hu Zhen did not forget to arrange the exorcism and the Outpost. It was just that because it was too dark and it was the latter half of the night, exorcism and Outpost were a little tired. By the time exorcism and the Outpost discovered him, Sun Jian’s army was already less than a kilometer away from West Cold Army Camp.
“Enemy attack …”
“Enemy attack …”
“Enemy attack …”
In an instant, the mournful cry resounded above the gathering of men, startling countless birds and insects. scout galloped like a horse and galloped straight towards the camp, while the other Outpost’s kept cursing their parents for not giving birth to more legs. They cursed the exorcism riders on the way to camp out as well.
“Kill …”
Sun Jian roared, he pointed the blade in his hand towards the sky, and the sharp blade edge shone in the darkness. His men from the Generals shouted in unison. One by one, they took out their weapons and charged towards the West Cold Army Camp together with their soldiers.
… *
Almost at the same time, a hurried gong sound came from the West Cold Army Camp, waking all the other West Cold Army s up. The entire camp was thrown into chaos, Generals’s shouts, the shouts of the soldiers, and the shouts of the warhorses all sounded out.
To be honest, if Hu Zhen could effectively command the West Cold Army’s defense and even counterattack at this time, he could definitely defeat Sun Jian. His soldiers, along with Lv Bu’s cavalry and Hua Xiong’s foot soldiers, not only did their numbers surpass Sun Jian’s, their combat experience was also better than Sun Jian’s soldiers.
Instead, he calmly ordered all his soldiers to prepare for battle. At the same time, he sent out his herald to inform Lv Bu and Hua Xiong for them to quickly gather, preparing to launch an attack on Sun Jian at any time.
However, Hu Zhen’s plan was wrong.
Lv Bu’s cavalry were stationed at the Front Camp, so they were the first to hear the alarm. The vigilant Lv Bu jumped up from the bed, after donning his armor he ran out of the tent, only to see Song Xian, Hou Cheng, Wei Xu and a few other generals running over.
“Lord Du Du Du, the entire camp was ambushed by Sun Jian, we have gathered here.” Song Xian was the first to ran over and reported loudly to Lv Bu. The Zhanzhou cavalry under Lv Bu’s hands fought against the Hun cavalry all year round, so they were already used to this kind of sneak attack.
“Lord Du Du Du, what should we do?” Hou Cheng ran over and asked anxiously. He pointed in the direction of the gathering men in the pitch black night sky and said softly: “Lord Du Du Du, according to exorcism’s reports, Sun Jian’s army almost instantly came out, and they wish to fight to the death with West Cold Army.”
Song Xian and Wei Xu also looked at Lv Bu, waiting for his reply.
Lv Bu’s entire army had come. If he were to withdraw from the battlefield now, it would be equivalent to opening the doors of the West Cold Army Camp for Sun Jian, and Sun Jian’s army would rush straight to the middle camp of Hu Zhen.
“If we attack Sun Jian’s army head on, even if we can’t break through Sun Jian’s grand formation, Sun Jian’s army won’t be able to enter the West Cold Army Camp. If we were to break through Sun Jian Great Formation, it would be a great contribution. ” Lv Bu thought for a while, then said seriously.
“Lord Du Du Du, the sky is so dark, why is the cavalry attacking like He Jin?” When Song Xian, Hou Cheng, and Wei Xu heard this, they all shouted in disagreement, especially Wei Xu, and he actually shouted loudly, “Lord Du Du Du, these ten thousand Zhanzhou cavalry, you must know who you are!”
“This …” Lv Bu purposely hesitated, revealing a troubled expression. In fact, he had already wanted to run away in his heart, he wouldn’t care about Hu Zhen’s life and death. However, he didn’t want to be accused of running away before the battle, so he could only look at Song Xian, Hou Cheng, Wei Xu and the other generals with pretense.
At this time, the sounds of Sun Jian’s army fighting could already be heard outside of the camp. Sun Jian’s soldiers were destroying the fences of the camp. Song Xian knew that he could no longer hesitate, he suddenly looked at Hou Cheng and Wei Xu, then said to Lv Bu’s personal guards: You few protect the Lord Du Du Du, quickly retreat, we will protect the rear.
Surrounded by the janissaries, Lv Bu seemed to be extremely unwilling to get on his horse, as he, Hou Cheng, and Wei Xu immediately ran towards his own team. Not long later, more than ten thousand riders followed Lv Bu and fled northwards, quickly disappearing into the night.
Hu Zhen was gathering the West Cold Army in his middle camp, preparing to reinforce the Lv Bu Cavalry that was guarding the Front Camp. He had to admit that the West Cold Army was not difficult to deal with and had to be dealt with appropriately. If he could rely on the protection of the camp, Sun Jian might not be able to take any advantage of him.
“Report …” A few exorcism s ran over quickly, and said while gasping for breath: “Lieutenant General, the cavalry army that was guarding Front Camp,, fled without fighting. The former Front Camp gave her hands to Sun Jian. Now, Sun Jian’s army has entered the main camp and is rushing towards the middle camp.
Before Hu Zhen could gather his troops, he heard the sounds of more than ten thousand cavalrymen from exorcism reporting to him. They abandoned their battalions and gave their weapons to Sun Jian, causing him to almost pass out from anger, “Damned Lv Bu, he actually fled right before the battle, this old man will definitely report this to the Prime Minister and kill your nine generations!”
