Chapter 2233: Defeated Changsun Wuji and fought against Wuzhangyuan (Part 2)
Chapter 2230: Defeat Changsun Wuji and fight to Wuzhangyuan (Part 2)
The predecessor of the Tang cavalry was the Western Liang Iron Cavalry, one of the three major cavalry of the Han Dynasty.
The heyday of the Western Liang Iron Cavalry was the period when Dong Zhuo was in power. The 200,000 Western Liang Iron Cavalry dominated the world. Even Ying Hao did not dare to provoke him easily, and even had to join forces with the 36 princes to challenge Dong to protect himself.
After Dong Zhuo fell, the Western Liang Iron Cavalry was divided into two parts, and was completely divided by the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
The Iron Cavalry of the Tang Army, which was born from the Western Liang Iron Cavalry, has quite good combat effectiveness. Perhaps there is still some gap compared with the Qin cavalry, but it is also stronger than other princes.
With the combat effectiveness of the Tang cavalry, even if they are not the opponent of the Qin cavalry, they will not be crushed as soon as they are in the battle. It is still possible to delay the arrival of reinforcements from the rear.
The reason why the Tang army was crushed was that in addition to the skill increase was less than that of the Qin army and the tactical gap, it was mainly because Gongsun Xuanyuan''s sharp knife was too hindered.
Gongsun Xuanyuan''s eight thousand iron cavalry directly inserted into the Tang army''s confidant, cutting off the connection between the front and rear armies, making it impossible for the head and tail to look after each other, and could only use half of the combat power to deal with the Qin army in the front. It would be strange if it was not crushed.
Therefore, the only way for the Tang army to get rid of the current dilemma is to pull out Xuanyuan''s sharp knife, otherwise there will be only one ending of defeat.
The name of a person is the shadow of a tree.
Gongsun Xuanyuan, as the number one general in Youzhou, naturally heard of his name. Facing this difficult opponent, he naturally did not dare to be careless and directly ordered Gao Siji, Gao Shunli, Gao Sixiang, Shi Jingtang and others to join forces to surround Xuanyuan.
Gao Sixiang''s brothers were in the front army, while his father Gao Shunli and Shi Jingtang were in the back army.
As soon as the two generals of the former army left, Changsun Wuji felt that the pressure increased, but at this point he could only grit his teeth and hold on.
As long as the Xuanyuan army can be defeated, the front army can at least be able to protect the rear army.
"General Zhang Xiu and Gao Xingzhou, follow our generals to fight forward and fight. We must persevere until the reinforcements arrive." Changsun Wuji shouted.
"No."
The three generals yelled in unison, after all, even the main general was going to fight to the death. How could they not fight to the death as generals?
The Kansai martial arts trend is prevalent. Although Changsun Wuji was a civil servant, he also practiced martial arts since childhood and his strength is not weaker than first-class military generals.
With Zhang Xiu''s three generals protecting each other, Changsun Wuji was not under much threat. He slashed and killed six elite Qin cavalry one after another, but he didn''t even breathe. But soon Qin general Long Yang stared at them.
Long Qi''s younger brother Long Yang, with a magic sword in his left hand and a daring sword in his right hand, rushed back and forth among the Tang army, killing dozens of people without even meeting the opponent. After targeting Changsun Wuji, he encountered Zhang Xiu.
Long Yang was blocked by Zhang Xiu before he could get close to Changsun Wuji, and then the two started a fierce battle.
Zhang Xiu, one of the 24 generals of the Three Kingdoms, is the eldest disciple of Tong Yuan, a spear **** Sanren of Penglai. The younger brother of Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren, holds the title of King of Guns in the North. He has been active since the Dong Zhuo era, which shows that his strength is naturally extremely strong.
[Dingdong, Zhang Xiu''s skill "Ghost God" is activated, with force +4, basic force 102 (+4), tiger-headed gold spear +1, Salu +1, current force has increased to 108;]
At the Battle of Hangu Pass half a year ago, Zhang Xiu and a group of people beat Li Cunxiao together, but they were injured and even interrupted their weapons. Now, not only did their injuries heal, but their weapons were recast, and their strength has also gone further.
Zhang Xiuqiang, Long Yang is not weak either.
Long Yang of Kiwu 101 can last at least hundreds of rounds even if he faces his opponent 102, but this time he met his nemesis.
Long Yang''s two swords are short weapons, and his opponent Zhang Xiu''s long spear is inherently at a disadvantage. In addition, Zhang Xiu''s Hundred Birds and Phoenix Spear has become Mahayana, which even restrains Long Yang.
After only twenty rounds of battle, Long Yang completely suppressed it. If it weren''t for the protection of the dragon scale armor, he would have been seriously injured, and nearly one-third of the scales on the dragon scale armor were picked away. Long Yang lived from the Yellow Turban period to the present, and was well versed in the way of saving his life on the battlefield. He retreated decisively if he couldn''t win, but Zhang Xiu saw through his intentions and wanted to run away became a luxury.
The two fought fiercely for five more rounds. Just when Long Yang was about to be unable to hold on, Meng Yi killed in time and saved Long Yang''s life.
"Brother Meng, Long Yang is grateful for his life-saving gratitude."
Long Yang said while wiping his cold sweat, just a little bit short of that, he was about to die at Zhang Xiu''s hands.
"It''s just a simple task, and as both the generals of the Qin army, this is what Meng Yi should do." Meng Yi smiled.
When Zhang Xiu saw Meng Yi and Long Yang, they could not be said to be exactly the same, but they could only be said to be exactly the same. He subconsciously thought they were twin brothers, but he did not expect that one of them had surnamed Long and the other surnamed Meng, and he involuntarily imagined the various love, hatred and affection between the elders of the two families.
"Even if you brothers and I are together, Zhang Xiu is not afraid. Today I will let you see how powerful I am in the North Gun King."
Zhang Xiu shouted coldly, then rode his horse and spear forward, ready to take one or two.
Meng Yi and Long Yang showed embarrassment on their faces. This is not the first time they have been misunderstood as twin brothers.
"Brother Long Yang, you are already injured. Let''s leave this Zhang Xiu to Meng Yi to deal with." Meng Yi said.
Long Yang nodded. He was indeed injured. If he participated in the war, he might cause trouble for Meng Yi.
Long Yang withdrew, while Meng Yi stepped forward with his gun, intending to fight Zhang Xiu alone.
As a time traveler, Meng Yi naturally knew Zhang Xiu, but now Zhang Xiu is obviously much stronger than what is described in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
"It''s really a cruel era. If you don''t work hard to become stronger, you will have a dead end and be eliminated by the times." Meng Yi said in his heart, but he was even more excited.
Although Zhang Xiu is strong, Yi Xiaochuan is not weak either. Especially after killing Li Cunxu, he broke his own bottleneck again and went further, and he urgently hopes to fight against opponents of the same level.
Kill the founding emperor of the Later Tang Dynasty, Li Cunxu, and receive a reward of permanent +1 in five dimensions. Currently, Meng Yi (Yi Xiaochuan) has five dimensions: commander 93, force 103, intelligence 81, politics 59, charm 95;
"kill."
After two loud shouts, Meng Yi and Zhang Xiu made moves at the same time. The Meng family''s eighteen dragon-watching dragons were facing hundreds of birds and phoenix guns. For a moment, the sky was full of gun shadows, which made people dazzled.
This is a showdown between dragons and phoenixes.
Meng Yi and Zhang Xiu are both masters of gun use. Meng Yi''s eighteen styles of the Dragon Traveling Dragon are domineering and fierce, and Zhang Xiu''s bird-watching spear is quick and light.
Both of them have mastered their marksmanship to great success, and they are only a little bit short of Jiwu, and the gap in their strength is not big. It is difficult to distinguish between the top and bottom in a short period of time, so they actually fought to the right.
On the other hand, Huo Qubing saw Gao Xingzhou, a master of gun use, defeated the three generals Li Jin, Yue Xi and Zhongli. When he was happy to see the hunting, he was ready to take Gao Xingzhou personally.
Huo Qubing and Gao Xingzhou''s Jiwu are both 104, and they both use guns, so no one can do anything to them in a short period of time.
At the same time, Gongsun Xuanyuan was facing the siege of four powerful generals, Gao Siji, Gao Sixiang, Gao Shunli and Shi Jingtang.
