Chapter 988: Joining Forces Against the Enemy
The sound of this horn greatly encouraged Zhang Xiu and Zhang Xiu's soldiers.
Because Zhang Xiu knew that the horn sounded the 20,000 main forces led by Zhang Ren from the rear to support.
These 20,000 soldiers and horses are Zhang Lu's soldiers and horses.
Because Guan Yu's army had already started one step ahead and besieged Gan Ning's camp from three directions.
The remaining reinforcements needed to rely on Liu Zhang's soldiers and horses from Nanzheng City.
Liu Zhang's soldiers and horses arrived later than Guan Yu's men.
That's why Zhang Xiu will be allowed to attack Gan Ning's camp first, so as to delay time and contain Gan Ning by the way.
Now after a bitter battle, Zhang Xiu finally waited for the reinforcements from behind.
After hearing the horn, Zhang Xiu was a little excited, and immediately laughed at Gan Ning.
"Haha, my reinforcements are here! I see how you still fight me? ”
Because of the reinforcements, Zhang Xiu's self-confidence also returned.
The pace of the offense has also shifted from defensive to offensive at the beginning.
Because only an attack can contain Gan Ning, so that Gan Ning cannot withdraw from the battle.
At this time, Gan Ning saw Zhang Xiu's smug look.
There was no fear, but a sneer.
"Do you want to keep me? Besides, I haven't even planned to run away! ”
Although Gan Ning was indeed shocked when he heard the sound of the horn, he felt a trace of doubt.
However, in Gan Ning's speculation, there is not much left of Guan Yu's army, and even if there are reinforcements, it is only more than 10,000 people.
The army in Gan Ning's hands can definitely deal with more than 20,000 people with one as two, and it is not a problem.
What Gan Ning thought in his heart was that he only needed to kill Zhang Xiu first when the other party's reinforcements had not yet arrived.
The dust settled.
Even if their reinforcements came, it would be to no avail.
As Gan Ning's words fell, the spear in his hand had already stabbed at Zhang Xiu's body again.
This time, he already carried twelve points of strength in Gan Ning's whole body.
A shot was fired, and the wind around it was whirring.
The speed was so fast that only one afterimage was revealed.
That embroidered book is also a master of guns, and he has also learned marksmanship for decades.
can be regarded as a leader, but when facing Gan Ning's shot, his expression also changed greatly, which was even more terrifying than the blow he faced with his senior brother Zhang Ren.
Zhang Ren's attack skills are stronger, although he is also extremely domineering, but Zhang Xiu himself still understands Zhang Ren's offensive routines, even if he can't block it, at least he can use his ability to dodge one or two.
But in the face of Gan Ning's blow that poured all his strength, Zhang Xiu was still a little cowardly.
Because he didn't know much about Gan Ning's strength, he didn't have any contact with Gan Ning before.
rashly fought with Gan Ning, and in an unguarded situation, he naturally suffered a big loss in the face of an unfamiliar opponent like Gan Ning.
In addition, Gan Ning's strength is not small, and he carried Gan Ning's blow hard, Zhang Xiu was not sure at all.
If you forcibly resist, you are afraid that you will not be able to block Gan Ning's blow, but you will be stabbed to death by Gan Ning.
Zhang Xiu didn't want to be killed by Gan Ning here, his purpose was just to contain Gan Ning.
He didn't need to fight Gan Ning here, so he didn't hesitate to take a few steps back.
Gan Ning's spear stabbed straight and quickly stabbed Zhang Xiu's chest.
He knew that Zhang Xiu would hide, so he showed a sneer.
Then he loosened his grip on the spear's arm.
The spear originally couldn't pierce Zhang Xiu's body, but after Gan Ning let go of his hand, he forcibly added a few points further to the distance of the spear.
He held the gun in one hand and grabbed the tail of the spear.
The body of the gun in his hand had already rushed towards Zhang Xiu's body, and the tip of the gun had already pierced Zhang Xiu's armor.
Ding.
The spear breaks through the embroidered armor.
Zhang Xiu's expression changed greatly.
But he was fast enough, and the spear only broke through his armor and pierced a little bit of flesh, and he couldn't move any further.
Zhang Xiu was frightened by Gan Ning's move, and really didn't dare to confront Gan Ning anymore.
He could only beckon, let the soldiers around him come over, deal with Gan Ning, and contain Gan Ning.
Immediately, Zhang Xiu retreated by himself and ran to a place far away from Gan Ning to command the battle.
Gan Ning wanted to pursue it, but was held back by the swarming enemy soldiers.
Seeing Zhang Xiu fleeing from his side like this, Gan Ning was naturally angry.
However, there was nothing to be done, so he could only let Zhang Xiu leave calmly.
However, even if Zhang Xiu escaped like this, Gan Ning did not panic, but transferred his anger to the soldiers under Zhang Xiu.
After Zhang Xiu was defeated and retreated, he killed a few more soldiers and killed all the enemy soldiers in front of him.
It can also play a role, anyway, Zhang Xiu's number of soldiers and horses is not large.
It's just that after Gan Ning killed dozens of enemy soldiers, Zhang Xiu's reinforcements in the distance finally arrived here.
The shock of the swarm of 20,000 soldiers and horses, the huge crowd of people.
In an instant, Gan Ning felt that there were definitely more than 10,000 reinforcements in this force.
There are definitely more than 20,000 of these centaurs. And since it is a reinforcement of 20,000 people, it is not something that Guan Yu can mobilize now.
"There are so many people, where did Guan Yu's guy get so many people?"
After Gan Ning glanced at the distance, he immediately had a trace of doubt in his heart.
Just when Gan Ning was puzzled, the reinforcements in the distance gradually approached.
When those people appeared in front of Gan Ning's eyes, Gan Ning was finally able to clearly see the figure of the reinforcements.
Suddenly, he was stunned.
Because he found that the costumes of these Yuan soldiers were not the same as the costumes of these soldiers under Guan Yu.
Guan Yu's soldiers and horses are the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, and the clothes on their bodies are all official and military uniforms.
And these reinforcements are the soldiers and horses under Liu Zhang of Yizhou.
Although the uniforms of Liu Zhang's soldiers and horses are the same as those of the imperial court, there are some slight differences, which are in line with the local soldiers in Yizhou.
For example, their weapons are not as long as those of the imperial court. The armor is also slightly different from that of the imperial court.
Especially the Yizhou army, because the temperature is acceptable, the dress is thinner than that of the imperial court.
Although the appearance is similar, if you look closely, you can easily distinguish it.
"These horses are not Guan Yu's men, they are Liu Zhang's soldiers and horses in Nanzheng City?"
In an instant, Gan Ning guessed that these reinforcements were not Guan Yu's men and horses through the different attire of these soldiers and horses.
"How did Liu Zhang's soldiers and horses get together with Guan Yu's men and horses, and come to support Guan Yu to charge me?"
After thinking about it, Gan Ning seemed even more confused.
"It's not good, Guan Yu's men and Liu Zhang have joined forces!"
Gan Ning pondered for a while, and immediately guessed the story in it.
