Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

On the endless plains, more than 24,000 armies, the front, middle and back, and the three armies slowly retreated. The officers in the army stretched their necks and looked around, feeling quite turbulent.

tread! tread! tread!

Woo! Woo! Woo!

The sound of horseshoes, horns of horns, and the roar of warriors are mixed in between, and countless sounds converge to form a sonata of death.

"Cavalry! Xu Huang's cavalry!"

"The enemy cavalry is here again. Are you waiting to stop quickly?"

"Array, array! Where's the archer?"

After a rush of mobilization in Ji Ling's army, the more than 24,000 troops immediately stopped and formed their positions. A whole row of swordsmen and shields listed the copper walls and iron walls, and the bright spears were placed on the big shields to form an attack and Shou's combination.

And behind the dazzling shield and spear, thousands of crossbowmen opened their bows and arrows, aiming at the outside and ready to go.

Rumble! The horse hooves of two thousand horses trampled on the earth and made a deafening roar. Under the leadership of Xu Huang, they rushed over the wilderness like a rushing flood.

"Archer ready!"

Ji Ling yelled, and the military bowman suddenly tightened his nerves, and the palms of the arrows shook slightly.

"Attention! Two hundred and fifty steps, retreat immediately, absolutely no further, you know?"

Hearing Xu Huang's command, the two thousand horses galloped forward, but they did not rush forward. They rushed to a distance of two hundred and fifty steps from Yuan Shujun’s formation. Suddenly, a big turn was made. Before assault, but went around back.

Two hundred and fifty steps are just the right distance for the archer, belonging to the very edge of the effective range.

jump!

Although Ji Ling did not give the order to shoot, there were many archers in the army. One of them let go of the bowstring under tension. Many archers were affected. Thousands of arrows were shot out. Falling into the dust behind the cavalry.

"Ji Ling, Xu Huang will take a step first, and come to greet you later, haha!" Xu Huang turned away and laughed, then turned and retreated with two thousand cavalry.

"Damn it!" Ji Ling punched fiercely, but the hammer was weak in the air, making him helpless.

"This **** Xu Huang follows behind our army like a tarsal maggot, and can't get rid of it." Ji Ling said angrily: "In this way, our army can move at less than 40 times a day. Here, can you withdraw to Runan in the year of the monkey?"

"General, this is also helpless." Yan Xiang said helplessly: "Xu Huang's two thousand cavalry machines are very powerful. Our army is mostly infantry and lacks cavalry. There is really no way."

Ji Ling snorted, but his anger did not disappear: "It's okay, the whole army is told to hurry up, don't delay time."

Since Ji Ling led his army to retreat, Xu Huang has chased after him and followed Ji Ling's army, and immediately followed the opportunity.

In the past few times, Ji Lingjun didn’t respond well and was killed by Xu Huang. Hundreds of people were killed. Later, Ji Lingjun was prepared. When he saw Xu Huang and the cavalry rushing up, he immediately set up the formations in a conditioned reflex. Xu Huang didn’t. Note that dozens of people were shot and killed.

Xu Huang was quite self-blaming. From then on, as long as he was within the range of the enemy's crossbowman, he turned around and left immediately, never rushing directly. Because Xu Huang led the army to harass, Ji Lingjun's marching speed could only be maintained at about forty miles a day, which was extremely slow. Now it is the fourth day, but Ji Ling has just arrived in Dingling, two days to reach Yan County, and five days to return to Runan County.

After Xu Huang led the cavalry to retreat, after a short time, he only saw a pass to erect the flag in the wind.

"Brother Yun!" Xu Huang rushed forward and said hello to Guan Yu.

"Kongming, thanks to you." Guan Yu stroked his long beard and smiled: "Ji Ling's army can only travel at a fast speed, and I don't know how badly he will be."

After Ji Ling retreated from Yingyang City, Xu Huang led his iron cavalry to harass, and Guan Yu was rather dissatisfied with being besieged by Ji Ling for several days, so he left more than two thousand young men and his eldest son Guan Ping to defend the city and led three thousand soldiers himself Out of the city, pursue Ji Lingjun.

Ji Lingjun could only move slowly under Xu Huang's harassment, while Guan Yujun maintained a relatively fast marching speed. Xu Huang and Guan Yujun joined forces to wait for an opportunity to intercept Ji Ling.

"Brother Yun, did Master Xuande replied?" Xu Huang asked.

"Yeah." Guan Yu nodded and replied, "Brother ordered Cao Bao to guard Chen Guo. He personally led five thousand elite soldiers and his third younger brother. He had already passed through the northern part of Runan County from Changping. At this moment, he should almost enter Yingchuan County. ."

"Great!"

Xu Huang clenched his fists tightly, and said with a serious face: "When the Xuande soldiers arrive, you and I will be flanked back and forth, and Ji Ling can be disciplined, and I can't go back!"

Guan Yu thought about it and thought it was a good time to weaken Yuan Shujun, so he wrote a letter to Liu Bei, analyzed in detail the situation of Ji Ling's army, and believed that Ji Ling's march was slow, lack of food and grass, and morale was depressed. Great time for the enemy.

After discussing with Xu Huang for a while, Xu Huang was originally a very bold man with soldiers. After hearing Guan Yu's plan to assault Ji Ling's 20,000 troops with 10,000, he decisively agreed to it.

So in the past few days, Xu Huang has been harassing Ji Lingjun with cavalry, slowing down his marching speed, so that his food and grass will be consumed without fighting and self-defeating. At the same time, he is also trying to delay the time as much as possible until Liu Bei leads Chen Guo to encircle the army Spiritual Department.

"By the way, we have to pay attention." Guan Yu suddenly said: "Gongming, you led the troops to harass behind, which delayed the marching speed of Ji Ling's fellow. Maybe this fellow will march secretly at night. This must be prevented."

"Haha, don't worry about Brother Yun." Xu Huang showed a confident smile: "Some also arranged a group of outposts at night, and they always follow Ji Lingjun. Once they see something unusual about Ji Lingjun, he will come naturally. Bulletin."

"The sight of Ji Ling is unclear at night. If Ji Ling is marching at night, after being discovered by our army, he will only need one assault and he will be confused. When Ji Ling collapses without fighting, he won't need Xuan De Gong." Xu Huang smiled.

Guan Yu nodded and said with a firm expression: "Well, this time I must let Ji Ling stay in Yingchuan County forever!"

After Xu Huang led his army to harass Ji Ling's side, Ji Ling marched slowly, and finally reached Dingling after two days. After Ji Ling ordered the people to collect a batch of grain and grass from Dingling, he ordered the whole army to retreat towards Yanxian.

"Brother, Yan County is ahead!"

Liu Bei nodded: "Well, Yan County is located at the turn of Yingchuan and Runan counties, so Ji Ling must not be allowed to cross Yan County."

In the night, a big banner with the word Liu fluttered in the wind. Liu Bei had a sword on each side of his waist. Zhang Fei stood behind him, holding a zhangba snake spear and guarding him. Behind him were five thousand soldiers and horses. There were Danyang soldiers and Yuzhou. Soldiers.
