Face To Face

"My lord, there is an army from Xiliang that is attacking our army." Near Aokang, Yuan Shu was about to meet the princes at Hulao Pass, bringing food and grass. The flying horse came running and bowed to Yuan Shu.

"Oh?" Yuan Shu had already mounted his horse, and he frowned and asked, "Did you see whose flag it is?"

"It was General Hua Xiong of the Western Liang Dynasty. According to what the remnants of the Jiangdong army said, the last time they gathered in Yangren, this man was under siege and he defeated General Xue Mao under the command of Sun Jian was killed." Yu, he said, bowing down.

"How is it better than you?" Yuan Shu's face darkened upon hearing Sun Jian's name. Initially, he was his general, but after Sun Jian's son and Huang Gai fled back, he went to Yuan Shao. He also disliked the people under Sun Jian's command. If he dies, he will die. If he died well, he would be doomed. Otherwise, how could the opponent have killed him when he was encircling him?

"This...the four generals, Huang, Cheng, Han, and Zu, under General Sun's account, are not of the same generation." Yu Xi thought for a moment and then said, after all, he's never really fought, so it's hard to compare, but as Yuan Shu's general, he was on the same level as Sun Jian. If Yuan Shu felt inferior to Sun Jian's subordinates, what else would he do? That's why I only said all four were powerful, but I didn't say I was inferior.

"Fei Yi and others?" Yuan Shu heard the words and scoffed: "He had clout, but a Lü Bu killed him, and even Sun Jian could not come back alive, then Huang Gai did not know his attitude toward death." How to be loyal? It wasn't very worthy. How can they compare to you? Go and take Huaxiong's head and make a name for yourself before the princes."

"It's here!" U, she was a little helpless. Yuan Shu was talented and had a prominent family background, but he always looked like a high-ranking man. ... she can only agree; what if she doesn't agree? Tell Yuan Shu that he is a worthless person who is inferior to Sun Jian's four generals. Yu He finally climbed the big tree of the Yuan family. How could he destroy his future? And it can be recovered. At this moment, with a roar, he led his troops toward Huaxiong to welcome him.

On the other hand, Huaxiong did not go to Xingyang after leaving customs but went to Aokang. Aokang, Chenggao, and Xingyang were originally standing on a tripod and guarding the horns, but unfortunately, Xingyang and Aokang were abandoned one after another, leaving only Cheng Gao to stop the coalition army; according to the previous discussion between Lu Bu and the generals, if Xiangyang and Ao Cang could get one of them, they would be able to recapture the coalition forces.

But the Xiangyang side is considered the coalition army's main force. Huaxiong only brought 2,000 people and would give it nothing if confronted. It is better to come to Aokang and try his luck to see if he can take the opportunity to take possession of Aokang. Even if it can't, it can significantly lower the alliance army's morale if it can kill all the princes.

While thinking about it, I saw a scout coming to report that there were enemy forces ahead, not much; they should have come straight here.

Not much and not less than Hua Xiong's men, but if the Guandong princes have the same number of soldiers and horses, they don't consider other factors, but they just face-to-face... Hua Xiong Feels a little bullied.

"let's go!" After confirming that the other party was coming this way, Hua Xiong needed clarification. The distance from Chenggao to Ao Cang was only twenty miles. He has to use this fight to stabilize his position. From today others will call him General Hua; there is no need to feel that he is inept.

From a distance, he saw smoke and dust everywhere, and before the scouts could come back, he saw a line of arrows fall from the sky, and the soldiers and horses who had already reached scattered formations suddenly became more chaotic.

"Prepare to meet the enemy!" Yu, he scolded and looked away. In the smoke and dust in the sky, Hua Xiong had already arrived here with the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.

The ground started trembling, and it seemed as if only the sound of horses' hoofs remained. Although the Guandong princes had already fought with the Xiliang army several times, the Nanyang army, which was always in charge of logistics and fodder, clashed with the Xiliang army. It was the first time; that oppressive feeling slowed one's breathing and made one's heart skip a beat.

Not to mention ordinary Nanyang soldiers, it was Yu Xi. It was the first time he had seen such an aura, and he instinctively wanted to avoid it. As a general, he was like that, let alone his subordinates. Before the Xiliang army came into contact, many Nanyang army threw away their weapons and fled, and more and more people fled.

Yu was a general, after all, and she immediately suppressed the fear in her heart. In this situation, when the infantry line up to meet the enemy, they will not fear the cavalry, but if they run, they will surely die. Rely on the compact structure to block the opponent's blows.

According to the art of war, it is exceptionally foolish for cavalry and infantry to fight against each other. As long as he can stabilize his side's formation, Yu Xi is 80% sure that the other side will survive, but...

There are fewer and fewer people who can stay in one place. Yu He finally breathed a sigh of despair. It's hard to say when compared to Hua Xiong, but he relies on these recruits from the Nanyang Army and the veteran Ziliang. Fighting hard is foolish.

Turning the horse's head, Yu Xi no longer cares for these new soldiers doomed to failure. Defeat is like a mountain. In this situation, I am afraid that Han Xin is alive and has no choice but to run away. It is difficult for one person to change the situation.

"Thief General, where are you running to?" Hua Xiong saw the formation of the sparse army that had not yet fought and knew that the battle had been won. Seeing Yu Shatiao turning his horse and running, he naturally did not want to let him escape and immediately shouted. With a thud, his feet hit the horse's belly and rushed toward Yu Xi.

U he felt only the spirits of the dead, making the horses run mad. The Nanyang army, which had no fighting spirit, saw that all its leaders had fled, and they all wanted to leave their weapons and run away, but at this time, they encountered the cavalry, which was already wholly outnumbered. Charged up. Turning around and running away, the other side doesn't even need a knife, and the horse runs wildly, and these Nanyang soldiers who have lost their fighting spirit are about to be crushed into the meat mud by the dense horse hooves. Could!

Yu Xi thrashed his horse like a madman and started running wildly. Within an instant, he saw Yuan Shu preparing his troops and horses to join the princes, and suddenly seeing dust rising here, Yu Xi Xi ran back in embarrassment, and Liu Xun, who was next to Yuan Shu, was startled: "This is the Xiliang Army, Yu She is defeated, all soldiers follow orders and form an array to meet the enemy." !"

There, Hua Xiong had already chased after Yu Xi. Seeing many Nanyang soldiers approaching him, he stomped the horse. The already blazingly fast warhorse suddenly sped up and rushed towards Yu Xi's horse instantly. After Yu Shezhan fell from his horse, he slammed the horse, raised his sword, and the Ziliang cavalry running from behind slowly began to slow down and stopped when they reached Huaxiong's back.

Hua Xiong raised Yu Xi's head with a knife, looked at Yuan Shu's beautiful flag, and shouted, "I am General Hua Xiong, who would dare to fight!"
