Yan Liang was in the middle of the fight, when he suddenly felt a strong attack, his eyes were raised, and he saw an extremely sharp knife slashing towards his head.

He suddenly gasped and hurriedly raised his broadsword to block.

"Zheng!"

With a loud bang, the blade slammed directly into his broadsword, and a huge brute force was like Mount Tai pressing down, making it difficult for his arms to maintain, and he felt quite strained.

"This guy's strength is so amazing?" Yan Liangxin secretly shouted.

Xu Chu missed the blow, quickly withdrew the big knife, spun half a circle in the air, returned to his hand, and once again sent out brute force, slashing towards Yan Liang.

Only then did Yan Liang notice that it was Xu Chu who attacked him. Although he had never fought with Xu Chu, Xu Chu's two raids made him look at Xu Chu differently. What's more, Xu Chu is heavily armored and his whole body is tightly protected, so he can't take advantage of it at all.

So, Yan Liang turned his horse's head and retreated sharply backwards to avoid Xu Chu's entanglement.

Xu Chu's second knife ended without a problem, and when he saw Yan Liang running away, he went to pursue, but his horse was too heavy and did not run fast, and Yan Liang's escape path was quickly filled by Yuan's army.

In desperation, Xu Chu had no choice but to raise his knife to slash Yuan Bing, but he scolded hatefully in his heart: "Guts rats! ”

Yan Liang didn't go far, but turned to other places, when he noticed Zhang Yan who was killing the enemy, his body was suddenly full of blood, he regained his spirit, slapped his horse and danced the knife, and took Zhang Yan directly.

Zhang Yan was holding the steel spear and was assassinating Yuan Bing, when he suddenly saw Yan Liang riding his horse towards him, with a fierce look on his face, he frowned, plucked up his courage, and stabbed at Yan Liang with his spear.

Yan Liang raised the big knife, directly pushed away the shot from Zhang Yan, and took advantage of the momentum to slash at Zhang Yan's wrist.

Zhang Yan was taken aback when he saw that Yan Liang's knife was calm and fast as lightning, slashing towards his unprotected wrist, and hurriedly retracted his hand, reversed the spear, and swept towards Yan Liang with the tail of the gun.

Yan Liang raised the broadsword to block Zhang Yan's spear, and the blade of the broadsword slashed towards Zhang Yan's wrist when it touched the spear, and it was extremely fast.

Zhang Yan couldn't dodge, so he had to let go of the spear, and at the same time pulled out the steel sword he was wearing at his waist, directly blocking Yan Liangsen's cold blade.

With his left hand, he picked up the spear that was about to fall to the ground and stabbed it towards Yan Liang's heart.

Yan Liang was taken aback, he didn't expect Zhang Yan's reaction speed to be so fast, he hurriedly withdrew the big knife and directly pulled away Zhang Yan's spear.

"Huh!"

Zhang Yan raised the steel sword in his palm and slashed towards Yan Liang, and at the same time withdrew the spear and stabbed Yan Liang in the chest again, attacking left and right!

Yan Liang blocks left and right, the defense is not leaky, and a big knife is in his hand, showing extraordinary martial arts. He blocked Zhang Yan's several attacks one after another, his face gradually became gloomy, and suddenly he shouted, and the blade of Sen Leng was as fast as lightning, cutting through the sky, and slashing towards Zhang Yan's face door with a thousand momentum.

This time, Zhang Yan gasped, he held a gun in his left hand and a sword in his right hand, and the middle door was wide open, just allowing Yan Liang to take advantage of the void to enter.

It was too late to defend back, and seeing that the sharp blade was about to slash, a cold air approached Zhang Yan, making his heart beat faster and making it difficult to breathe. Now, he can't dodge, and he can only hope for this steel helmet on his head.

So, he stretched his head forward, lowered his head, and at the same time waved his spear and swept towards Yan Liang.

It's too late, it's too soon. At this critical moment, an arrow flew directly over, and with a "ding" sound, it directly hit Yan Liang's knife surface, and the arrow carried a huge force, which made the blade have some deviation.

The blade fell directly on Zhang Yan's head, colliding with the steel helmet on top of Zhang Yan's head, making a crisp sound of "dang".

Zhang Yan only felt a huge brute force coming from the top of his head, but fortunately, his steel helmet was unusually strong, and only a trace of knife marks were cut by Yan Liang's big knife.

At such a scene, even Yan Liang was taken aback, he didn't expect that he was also a big knife forged from stainless steel, and he didn't split the steel helmet on Zhang Yan's head in half!

Or if it weren't for that sudden arrow that deflected his blade from the track, he would definitely be able to slash Zhang Yan to death!

Now, it was too late to say anything, Yan Liang could only make up for the mistake just now, his wrist continued to exert force, and the blade slipped down the helmet slightly, slashing towards Zhang Yan's shoulder.

The steel knife and the helmet made a "snort" grinding sound, sliding towards his right shoulder, he immediately realized the danger, and hurriedly picked the steel gun in his hand away from Yan Liang's big knife.

At the same time, a steel spear shot towards Yan Liang at a high speed, Yan Liang was taken aback, and hurriedly swung his knife to block, the steel spear was extremely powerful, and almost lifted him off the horse.

At this moment, a huge figure fell from the sky, wielding a big knife in his hand, and slashed towards Yan Liang.

Yan Liang was taken aback and hurriedly drove his horse backwards.

With a "boom" sound, the huge figure fell to the ground, the horizontal knife was in front of the chest, a pair of tiger eyes glared at Yan Liang angrily, and shouted to Zhang Yan behind him: "The subordinates are one step late, so that the lord is frightened!" ”

The person who came was Xu Chu, he killed more than a dozen Yuan soldiers, looking for Yan Liang, inadvertently saw Yan Liang fighting with Zhang Yan, and Zhang Yan was very dangerous, he was in a hurry, grabbed the steel gun of a soldier next to him, and threw it at Yan Liang, and at the same time rode a horse to fight Yan Liang, but encountered a few Yuan soldiers blocking the way, he supported the saddle with both hands, and the whole person stood on the back of the horse, jumped forward, and pounced directly towards Yan Liang.

"Whoosh!"

A feather arrow flew diagonally and shot directly towards Yan Liang's face, which made Yan Liang, who had just stood firm, a little frightened, and hurriedly lowered his head, and the arrow swept over his head, and actually shot down his helmet Sakura, and the person who shot the arrow was Tai Shici.

Yan Liang saw that he was in danger, turned his horse's head, and retreated to Yuan's army, and could no longer find him.

Zhang Yan remembered the scene of the battle with Yan Liang just now, and he still had some palpitations, if it wasn't for the steel helmet he was wearing on his head, he would definitely be killed by Yan Liang with a knife.

Luckily, there are no dangers. Zhang Yan settled down and immediately ordered a fierce attack on Yuan's army.

The cavalry of the Yuan army fought with the Xuzhou soldiers for a while, and suffered heavy losses, so Zuihou quickly retreated, trying to avoid close combat with the Xuzhou soldiers and relying on bows and arrows to shoot.

However, the Xuzhou soldiers put the heavy cavalry at the front, and the light cavalry on both wings always hid behind the heavy cavalry and charged towards the Yuan army.

Yuan Tan saw that Yan Liang, Zhang He, Han Meng and others led the cavalry to begin to retreat, so he immediately ordered the archers to release their arrows and cover the cavalry with arrows.

Under an order, the Yuan army fired thousands of arrows, arrows were like rain, although the heavy cavalry was not afraid of arrows, and blocked the arrows outside, but Tai Shici, Xu Sheng and other light cavalry lost their protection, and when they saw the enemy's arrows raining down, they did not dare to approach easily.

Zhang Yan then ordered the whole army to retreat, whether it was heavy cavalry or light cavalry, all retreated.

Yuan Tan saw that the Xuzhou soldiers were about to withdraw, so he once again asked Yan Liang, Zhang He, and Han Meng to lead the cavalry to chase, but the Xuzhou soldiers ignored them and just blindly retreated, and the Yuan cavalry did not dare to be aggressive, but followed closely.

The Xuzhou soldiers retreated while fighting, retreating for several miles in a row, and then suddenly stopped, and suddenly the whole army killed Yuan's army.

The heavy cavalry charged, the light cavalry scattered on both flanks and outflanked, and bows and arrows flew around the two armies.

After a while, the Xuzhou soldiers surrounded the cavalry of the Yuan army. As soon as Yan Liang, Zhang He, Han Meng and others saw that the situation was not right, they immediately withdrew their troops, but they were chased by Xuzhou soldiers and ran for more than two miles.

Zuihou, Zhang Yan announced the withdrawal of the army, and used the Mongolian army's style of play to test the knife, basically achieved some results.

Yuan Jun saw that the Xuzhou soldiers had gone away, and they were no longer chasing, and began to withdraw their troops back to the camp.

Zhang Yan and the others returned to Zhuxu City, took off their armor, and prepared to rest and recuperate. But Yuan Jun never retreated, which gave Zhang Yan a headache.

In the evening, Zhang Yan came to Zhang Hong's room in person, raised his hand and knocked on the door.

When Zhang Hong heard someone knocking on the door, he asked, "Who!" ”

"Me!" Zhang Yan said loudly outside.

When Zhang Hong heard Zhang Yan's voice, he immediately came to open the door and invited Zhang Yan to come in and sit down.

After the two sat down, Zhang Yan said: "Military Division, in the past few days, our army and Yuan's army have won and lost each other, but I have never been able to drive them away. After thinking about it, I decided to come to the military advisor, hoping that the military advisor could plan a plan for me that would make Yuan Jun lose fear in a war. ”

Zhang Hong thought for a moment, and then said: "Lord, Yuan Jun intends to be in Qingzhou, and he will definitely not retreat easily. Now most of Qingzhou has fallen into the hands of Yuan Jun, only Kong Rong does not surrender, and with Kong Rong's influence, as long as Kong Rong speaks, people who are willing to die for him will flock to him. This is also the reason why Weishenme Yuan Jun has always wanted to drive Kong Rong out of Qingzhou. Our army has few soldiers, although it has the advantage of armor, but it may not be able to bargain for anything from a head-on confrontation with Yuan's army. It's better to go off the rails with the sword, and take retreat as advance! ”

"Retreat as advance? Can you ask the military advisor to say clearly? Zhang Yan said suspiciously.

Zhang Hong said: "The lord can leave Zhuxu City with Kong Rong and the others first, and when Yuan Jun sees the lord retreating, he will inevitably send troops to follow and come to investigate." When Yuan Jun was really sure that the lord was retreating, he would let his guard down. When our army arrived at the junction of Xuzhou and Qingzhou, the lord led the army to go and return, and suddenly attacked Yuan's army, which would inevitably be able to break Yuan's army in one fell swoop. ”

After hearing this, Zhang Yan felt that this plan was feasible, so he hugged his fists and said: "The military advisor has a clever plan, I will arrange everything." ”

Zhang Hong said: "The lord must not be in a hurry, this matter still needs to be discussed with Kong Rong, otherwise, if he doesn't know that this is the lord's strategy, he will definitely refuse to leave." In addition, the lord should write another letter and send someone to Yuan Jun's camp to inform Yuan Tan that our army has no intention of being an enemy of him, but only to rescue Kong Rong for righteousness, and also to tell Yuan Tan that Kong Rong has been persuaded by the lord and will leave Qingzhou. In this way, Yuan Tan will definitely send people to closely monitor the movements of our army, so as to achieve the goal of making Yuan Jun relax. ”

"Okay, just do as the military advisor says."

After Zhang Yan came out of Zhang Hong's room, he went straight to see Kong Rong and explained his strategy to Kong Rong.

Kong Rong informed Liu Bei and the others of this strategy, telling them to be ready to retreat at any time.

And Zhang Yan asked Zhang Hong to ghostwrite and write a letter to Yuan Tan, asking Tai Shici to shoot an arrow into Yuan Jun's camp.

As the sun set, the twilight was four, and the lights gradually rose in the camp of the Yuan army.

Suddenly, a horse galloped from the west, and when he was about to reach the camp of the Yuan army, he suddenly took out his bow and arrows, pulled out the big bow, put on the arrows, and shot towards the camp of the Yuan army.

The soldiers of the Yuan army found the arrow, and it also carried a letter on it, so they immediately handed the letter to Yuan Tan.

After Yuan Tan received the letter, he hurriedly browsed it, and when he was smiling, he said, "Great! It's just great! I knew that Zhang Yan would not last long! ”

Guo Tu saw that Yuan Tan was so happy, so he asked, "Eldest Prince, what happened here to make the eldest prince so happy?" ”

Yuan Tan handed the letter in his hand to Guo Tu, Guo Tu hurriedly read it, his brows furrowed, and said to Yuan Tan: "Eldest prince, the Xuzhou soldiers suddenly retreated, will there be fraud?" ”

Yuan Tan also frowned and asked, "Is there any fraud, send someone to find out." ”

As a result, Yuan Tan sent scouts to pay close attention to Zhu Xucheng's situation.

Early the next morning, the scout came back to inform Yuan Tan that the people of Zhuxucheng, under the cover of Xuzhou soldiers, followed Kong Rong and began to retreat to Xuzhou.

After Yuan Tan heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly called Yan Liang and Zhang He, ready to lead the troops to attack.

Guo Tu stopped: "Zhang Yan withdrew his troops, but sent a letter in advance, maybe this is just an illusion, he deliberately led our army to attack, and then the Xuzhou soldiers were ambushed in the middle of the road." What's more, the Xuzhou soldiers have the advantage of soldiers, once the short-handed soldiers meet, our army cannot be in an advantage, it is better to let the Xuzhou soldiers go! ”

Yuan Tan felt that what Guo Tu said made sense, so he no longer ordered the pursuit, but sent scouts to follow him and report to him at any time.
