Chapter 177: Troop Cluster

"The lord is here, the lord is here."

The Jingzhou soldiers suddenly made a noise, only to see Liu Biao's big sword slowly moving forward towards the Chinese army, Liu Biao sat on the carriage, pulled out a sword and held it high in the sky, raised his head high, and his white beard flew in the wind, and there was really an awe-inspiring look.

This is the shape that Liu Biao specially made for him before he went into battle, if Liu Biao was allowed to lie on the car, morale would probably be even lower, Liu Biao held his sword, held his head high, stared ahead, like a statue asking the sky, and did not dare to move.

But it was really effective, the Jingzhou soldiers saw that their lord was "impassioned", and personally stepped forward to supervise the battle, and the lost confidence came back, and once again resisted the assault of the Sichuan army in groups of three or five.

"Our forces are blocked." Fa Zheng said with a frown.

Liu Zhang got up from his seat, stared at the battle array, pressed the palm of his hand on the handsome case, and said slowly: "This is not a good sign, Liu Biao has been dispatched, and ordered Zhang Ren to press the Shuai banner and personally lead the army to attack. ”

"Yes." The herald took the order and departed.

Liu Zhang snorted coldly: "I don't believe it, the Dongzhou soldiers are the first, and they can't break through the front of a group of sailors and recruits." ”

"Pass on the lord's order, the general personally supervises the battle, and if you can't break through for half an hour, you won't be pardoned immediately."

Zhang Ren frowned, lifted his spear, raised his gun and shouted at the soldiers behind him: "Come with me." ”

Zhang Yiyi was dressed in white armor, slammed the horse's belly, and the war horse quickly rushed to the battle array, quickly penetrating the army in front of him, and entered the white-hot entanglement of the two armies.

"Brothers, have you seen Liu Biao's Daxu? Beheaded Daxu, rewarded 100 gold, took off Liu Biao's head, sealed the marquis and worshiped the general, and killed. Zhang Ren waved his gun and shouted.

Yan Yan's big knife slashed vertically and horizontally like a raging wind, opened his mouth and shouted: "Those who enter live, and those who retreat die." ”

"Kill."

Zhang Ren's silver spear connected the dots, bringing out pieces of blood, and the soldiers of the Sichuan army saw that the general took the lead, and their courage doubled, and they fought more bravely to kill the enemy, and they were unstoppable.

Xu Shu looked at the battle situation in front of him, even if Liu Biao personally supervised the battle, it was only barely supported, Zhang Ren led the troops to enter, and it was devastating, and the combat power of the Sichuan army was too much stronger than these Jingzhou soldiers who did not fight all year round.

"Military division, the Chinese army can't hold it, and the brothers have suffered heavy casualties." A herald stepped forward to report to Xu Shu, he was originally a sailor, and now he was sent to fight on land with Pao Ze, watching his familiar friends in the army fall one by one, and countless casualties on land, the herald felt even more unwilling.

Xu Shu looked at the battlefield, although the charge of the Sichuan army was strong, it did not lose its discipline, and there was an anxious look in his eyes.

"The generals of the Chinese army, as long as they hold a stick of incense, they are the first merit in this battle, if they can't hold it, don't blame the ruthlessness of the sword of this army." Xu Shu's face showed a fierce look.

Cai Mao on the side said: "It's really incompetent, tired of the three armies, I said Xu Shu, we shouldn't have a head-on duel with the Sichuan army, you didn't listen, now the Sichuan army is about to defeat our army, but you want to shout and kill the generals, it's really in vain." ”

"You." Xu Shu was anxious in his heart, this is his first battle out of the mountain, and it is also related to the interests of the Jingbei clan, if he loses, the consequences are unimaginable, Cai Mao just made a sarcastic speech at this time, Xu Shu A good old man couldn't help but be angry, and immediately pressed down, sighing in his heart, the main weak general is arrogant, this is Jingzhou.

Xu Shu's banner moved forward, and the generals of the Jingzhou army, inspired by Xu Shu, insisted on fighting hard again, but it was also the end of the strong crossbow, Zhang Ren Yan Yan Gao Pei Yang Huai broke through in four ways, Zhang Ren took the lead in breaking through, and the Jingzhou army finally began to rout, and some Jingzhou soldiers began to flee back.

"We lost, we lost." Cai Mao shouted, and was about to flee to Baichuan City after speaking, but Xu Shu stopped him with a shout.

"General Cai, we are not defeated yet, you quickly urge your two brothers to guard the two wings."

"The Chinese army has broken through, and the two wings are still fighting a fart." Cai Mao didn't listen to Xu Shu at all, seeing that the Chinese army in Jingzhou had evolved from a gap to a rout of the whole army, Cai Mao just wanted to escape from the battlefield as soon as possible, and he wanted to turn the reins of his horse, and suddenly saw a flash of white light, Xu Shu pulled out his saber and cut off Cai Mao's reins with a sword.

"Xu Shu, you are presumptuous." Cai Mao didn't grasp the reins of the horse and almost got off the horse, pinching the broken reins in his hand and glaring at Xu Shu.

Xu Shu was even more angry than him, panting, his face was flushed, and he shouted, "General, is it not good for you that we are defeated?" Don't forget, your Cai family is the largest clan in Jingzhou, do you think you will be fine if you run out of this battlefield? ”

Xu Shu finally got angry.

Cai Mao was stunned, and suddenly remembered Cai's words, yes, if Jingzhou is gone, it is impossible for him to surrender to Liu Zhang, wouldn't it be that the foundation that Cai's family has saved for several years is gone.

Cai Mao glanced at the battlefield and finally decided to fight, which was also the first time that he did not retreat but advanced instead of retreating in the unfavorable situation of the war.

The Jingzhou soldiers were defeated, the two wings were stubbornly held, like a U-shaped circle, the Sichuan army poured water into the barrel, broke into the Jingzhou soldiers, a large number of Jingzhou soldiers fled in the field, the Sichuan army took the Dongzhou soldiers as the vanguard, chopping melons and vegetables all the way, and marched forward with the corpses and blood of the Jingzhou soldiers.

The several generals next to Liu Zhang's Shuaitai were so powerful, Wang Xu, they all breathed a sigh of relief, but Liu Zhang's and Fa Zheng's brows became tighter and tighter, Liu Zhang stood up from the Shuaitai, staring at the battlefield with unblinking eyes, and suddenly Fa Zheng shouted loudly.

"Lord, no, quickly order Zhang Ren to assault the two wings."

Liu Zhang stared at the battlefield and immediately called the flag soldiers to give orders, and the red and yellow flags were unfurled on the hills.

"Did Hyozhi see something?" Liu Zhang also felt that it was wrong, but he couldn't see it, which was what worried him the most.

"No, but." Fa Zheng said solemnly: "The elite soldiers of Jingzhou that we have been observing have not retreated, they seem to be staying where they are, there must be Xu Shu's conspiracy in this." ”

The charge in the field continued, the Sichuan army, under the leadership of several generals, had penetrated deep into the heart of the Jingzhou array, a large number of Jingzhou soldiers fled backwards, and the strange thing is that there seemed to be a cluster of soldiers like a reef in the river, and the defeated soldiers retreated like a tide, but they did not move, and the shape became clearer and clearer on Liu Zhang's handsome platform in the distance.

On the field, the defeated soldiers retreated, like the river dried up, and a piece of raised reef was revealed, which was a round cluster of soldiers, each of which was about dozens or hundreds of soldiers, in the face of the surging crowd, they did not move, the circular formation was convenient for the defeated soldiers to flow through, if someone broke into the formation, even if it was a friendly army, these soldiers would assassinate them mercilessly.

There are about hundreds of such troop clusters, adding up to nearly 10,000 people, in the field of a regular and strange formation, and the Sichuan army chased the defeated soldiers into the formation, when the defeated soldiers in Jingzhou retreated, this formation began to swing, each cluster moved to the front of the Sichuan army, the circular formation defense strangulation, and the Sichuan army always faced several clusters of attack, the large array of soldiers like a snake, with the body of the Sichuan army around the Sichuan army.
