The Peerless God-level System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 153 The Last Step

It is said that Shi Xie was provoked by Yuan Yao and became furious. His original plan of standing still and waiting for help was thrown out of his mind in an instant.

The disciples of the scholar family were also not resentful of Yuan Yao's provocation, they took the lead one by one, and even directly ignored Qin Qiong's 5000 people, and clung to Yuan Yao tightly.

Seeing that there were fewer and fewer soldiers and horses around Yuan Yao, and he was about to be overtaken by the Shi family, suddenly, a big army horse flew over from a distance, and as the leading infantry general, he walked like flying and killed him. Seeing that Yuan Yao was in danger, he yelled, "My lord, don't panic, Yuchi Gong is here."

Before the words were finished, there were countless horseshoes, from far to near, they rushed out from the two wings respectively, and when they reached the front, they merged into a single wave, and bumped into Shi Di and others head-on.

Yuchi Gong galloped out on his horse, and was about to kill Shi Di, and those who blocked him along the way were killed one after another, and there was not a single general under his command.

Shi Di was shocked, and hurriedly ordered his lieutenants to meet him, stopped his horse, and retreated.

At this time, the disciples of the scholar family gradually came to their senses from the brink of rage, only then did they realize that they were facing Yuan Yao's elite cavalry, and they were so frightened that they were covered in cold sweat.

Just imagine a group of infantry, even in the elite, facing thousands of cavalry charging at full speed, they will lose more than they win. It's not that they are not strong enough, but how can they resist the momentum of the horses no matter how strong their manpower is.

Without Shi Di's reminder, the pursuing pawns all automatically stopped and ran to both sides.

Although they are not afraid of death, they do not want to be trampled to death by galloping horses.

Although the people of Jiaozhou do not have the strict body and skin of the Central Plains, they have been influenced by their parents' ideas. Death without a whole body is always the most miserable way to die.

No one is willing to try easily.

Of course, this does not mean that Shi Xie's infantry completely collapsed in the face of the cavalry's impact.

You must know that this group of soldiers who are chasing after them are all veterans brought out from Jiaozhi, which is the basis for the scholars to dominate Jiaozhou, no more than those soldiers and horses from counties and counties that are temporarily transferred, and each of them is chaotic even the commander.

Although the shock caused by Yuan Jun's cavalry made them a little terrified, they also knew that they must not turn around and flee when facing the cavalry. Opponents can do whatever they want, defending and retreating at the same time, so that they can better maintain their lives.

Shi Xie, who was out of the camp, spotted Yuan Jun's cavalry immediately. There was no way, because the movement of the cavalry was too loud. In other words, the combat power of the cavalry battalion had reached the point where Shi Xie had to pay attention, especially Now, his subordinates can't gather a cavalry at all to be able to confront Yuan Yao head-on. This is a huge weakness for Shi Xie who can only rely on infantry to fight.

"This Yuan Yao is indeed a cunning person!"

Shi Wu's face was gloomy. Although he had vaguely guessed something, he still felt extremely uncomfortable when he saw Yuan Yao's ambush with his own eyes.

Just think about it, although he doesn't have any earth-shattering talents in Jiaozhou, but because of the war, there are a lot of people from the Central Plains who flowed into Jiaozhou, and there are quite a few great talents among them.

However, just like that, he was still easily caught in Yuan Yao's aggressive tactics face to face. How could this not make the proud soldier feel crazy.

Especially Shi Xie, Yuan Wei just warned him, but he didn't expect that when he came out, he was like this, unconsciously, he was humiliated in front of everyone again, and he was still the kind of person who didn't even have a fig leaf, who was clearly ashamed, always gentle Shi Xie couldn't help cursing in a low voice, and hurriedly ordered Shi Wu to bring a large number of archers from the Shi family to support.

At the same time, Qin Qiong also brought Yuan Jun who came out, fighting and retreating along the way, slowly moving closer to Yuan Yao.

Around him, there are some besieging county soldiers, which cannot cause too much damage to his army.

Especially the deterrence brought by Yuan Jun's cavalry battalion made the county soldiers panic, and Yu Chigong's personal bravery.

Although these county soldiers yelled fiercely, they didn't mean to go all out at all. Seeing that they couldn't stop the two killing gods, they pulled away and left.

Not only walking, but also extremely fast, wherever Qin Qiong and Yu Chigong passed, the surrounding county soldiers, like waves, parted to the two sides, not daring to stop in front.

Not only that, but the generals on horseback also disappeared one by one. Only through the cracks of people can they occasionally see some generals in armor, mingling among them.

In fact, they can't be blamed. Anyone who faces an opponent with perfect shooting and high martial arts will subconsciously choose to save his life.

It is true that they worked their lives for Shi Xie, but they also cherished their own lives. Although Jiaozhou had the kind of brave warriors who would risk their lives regardless of their own lives, they were obviously not them.

Shi Xie was also well aware of the performance of his subordinates. After watching for a while, he found that although he had a large number of soldiers, in terms of combat power, he was still far behind Yuan Yao's soldiers.

The appearance of the cavalry battalion also made Shi Xie's furious mind gradually calm down, and he also remembered that his own cavalry brigade had been wiped out, unless he specially gathered his own elite and put up a strict defensive formation Otherwise, it is impossible to stop the cavalry charge that comes and goes like the wind.

Moreover, the most serious point is that under his command, there is no general who can compete with Yuan Yao.

A war may be determined by a contest of strength and intelligence between the two sides, but a war is a confrontation between the strength of the two sides' military strength and generals.

Especially in a martial arts place like Jiaozhou, personal bravery can affect the emotions of soldiers.

It doesn't mean that there are more soldiers on that side, so it will definitely be able to win.

If that's the case, we don't need to fight anymore, we just need to compare which side has more soldiers.

"Brother, withdraw your troops. Our army's morale is low and we have no cavalry. If we continue to fight, we will be the ones who will suffer."

Extremely reluctant, Shi Wu put forward a request to withdraw his troops with a gloomy face.

He may be a reckless man, but the pros and cons of the battlefield can still be seen. What's more, those who are resisting the cavalry battalion now are the direct troops of the Shi family. One less.

Yuan Wei, who was kicked, came running over at some point, seeing the situation around him, and said wistfully, "My lord, the days ahead will be long, anyway, our reinforcements are about to come up, what a shame, we will all be very happy at that time." Returning back a hundred times more, and continuing to fight, is just a waste of troops.”

"Humph!"

Shi Xie snorted, and his face was also cloudy, but in the end, if he could be in his position, he would be able to tell which is more important when he calms down.

Holding the rein tightly, Shi Xie managed to utter two words between his teeth: "Retreat!"

Just two words, as if Shi Xie had exhausted all his strength, he stared blankly at Yuan Yao in the distance.

Sighing, a feeling of oldness suddenly arises in my heart. This kind of oldness is not only physical, but also spiritual, especially when I see Yuan Yao and compare my many sons. This feeling is even more obvious.

At this moment, Yuan Yao was sitting on his war horse. The running just now made his hair a little disheveled, covering one eye. However, he did not reach out to push the strand of hair away, but let it Draped, covering one eye.

The other eye was shining with contemplative light. I don't know if it was an illusion. Yu Chigong, who was the closest, seemed to see a trace of worry from that eye. However, he quickly shook his head, a little self-conscious. He scolded himself inwardly, but now they have the upper hand, and his master, if he wants to worry, it must be Shi Xie, that old man who doesn't know the current affairs.

However, Yuan Yao really started to worry.

Shi Xie's strike was originally very strange and well-behaved. He gathered an army of tens of thousands, suffered only two losses, and then suddenly retreated. This is completely unreasonable.

In particular, Jiaozhou is still Shi Xie's territory, and everyone's eyes are on his every move.

If it was a small setback, Shi Xie would shrink back. It was impossible for him to call the wind and rain in the land of Jiaozhou.

You must know that the border areas have always been areas where troubles are easy to cause, and they are also places where the weak and the strong are the most particular.

If his Shi Xie is not strong enough, or has a weak personality, he is fine in peaceful times, but in troubled times, such a person can only be eaten up.

However, Shi Xie was able to coerce Jiaozhou, and no one dared to defy him. It can be seen that although this man may not have military skills, his political skills are also extremely strong. Let me ask, what if a scholar who is proficient in political affairs does not know military affairs anymore Will you hang up the free card when you have a certain advantage?
"My lord, something is wrong. The morale of Shi Xie's army is not as unbearable as we expected."

With a sullen face, Qin Qiong walked to Yuan Yao's side. Because of Yu Chigong's cover, he also withdrew the soldiers completely without being surrounded.

He took a deep breath, as if to let go of the worries in his heart.

Now that Shi Xie's reality has been ascertained, there is no need for him to fight a war of attrition with Shi Xie here.

Different from Shi Xie, everyone here is a soldier who has undergone strict training, and one dies less, which is no different from Shi Xie who is based in Jiaozhou and can quickly replenish his troops.

With the sound of gold ringing on both sides, the soldiers on both sides gradually left the battlefield and began to retreat to both sides.

In the Shi Xie barracks, countless archers also began to open their bows and arrows, vigilantly guarding against possible enemy attacks.

Although they still suffered a small loss this time, just as Yuan Yao worried, the morale of the barracks did not drop much because of this, because the direct descendants of the scholar family were still full of fighting spirit, as if they were waiting for something.

The successive defeats did not cause a greater blow to Shi Xie's morale. Not only did Yuan Yao and the counselors around him feel that something was wrong, but even Qin Qiong and other generals also vaguely felt something strange.

Although they won the battle, they were not as excited as usual, but returned to the city with deep thoughts.

"Cha, let the spies from all over Jiaozhou give me a thorough investigation. Shi Xie's army is so strange, it must not be easy to come to the reinforcements."

In the mansion, Yuan Yao paced back and forth, with a bit of worry on his face.

He sent troops this time, but he took a big risk, and he never wanted to fight a New Year's Eve war with Shi Xie in Jiaozhou.

"My lord, there is no need to investigate. The spies from outside the city reported that Shi Xie's reinforcements have arrived. It is said that they came from Champa."

Li Ji hurried in with a serious expression on his face.

"What, from Champa?"

Yuan Yao's expression was strange, a little incomprehensible.

Could it be that, in the palm-sized area of ​​Champa, what kind of elite soldiers can there be?
Moreover, Zhancheng had just left the big man not long ago, not to mention worrying day and night to guard against the Central Plains sending troops, so he should walk on thin ice and concentrate on accumulating strength.Could it be that they thought that the Central Plains was in chaos, so they could get their hands on Jiaozhou?

Different from Yuan Yao's inexplicable, Shi Xie's camp was very lively.In the Chinese army, Shi Xie sat at the head seat, raised his wine glass with a smile on his face, raised his glass very politely, and smiled at a young and strong man in silk beside him: "This time, I can get your Highness's help. Grateful."

After finishing speaking, he raised his neck, drank up the wine, and turned the glass upside down, indicating that there was not a drop left.

Very satisfied with Shi Xie's attitude, the man known as His Highness also drank the wine in his hand in one gulp, and said with a big smile: "I have admired the name of Shifu Lord for a long time, and seeing you today is really a joy for a lifetime."

"What Fujun, brother district is too out of touch, if you don't give up, just call him the following word."

Thinking of his own reputation, even the remote city of Champa is famous, Shi Xie also showed a reserved smile on his face.

This man is alive for the sake of fame and fortune.

"Quite refreshing! Wei Yan is indeed a hero. Since you think highly of our Ou family, we are not stingy. Tomorrow, you can send someone to Nanhai County to fight the battle. We have agreed on a date. I will use all my troops to help you." Break the enemy!"

Ou Zhan really didn't know what politeness was, his chest was thumping, and he was full of confidence.

It seems that the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the city are just a weed in his eyes, which can be removed at any time.

Shi Xie's smile became more and more cordial, but after consecutive failures, Shi Xie had a deep understanding of Yuan Yao's military strength. Although Qu Zhan's troops were shocking and Jiaozhou was invincible, he still kindly reminded: "Yuan Yao's men are elite soldiers. General Yong, Your Highness has come from a long way, should you take a rest for a few days before going out to fight again?"

Ou Zhan laughed, with a loud voice, the trembling tents were slightly swollen, and he waved his hands disdainfully: "Don't worry, our soldiers, just like their mounts, are invincible existences on the mainland, just a group of mortals , How can you stop the footsteps of the gods?"

"Haha...Since Your Highness is full of confidence, I am also relieved. It is getting late, Your Highness should rest early, and I will send people to the city to fight the battle tomorrow!"

Shi Xie was overjoyed, feeling elated.

Ou Zhan was holding the golden goat's leg in one hand and the big wine jar in the other, and was burying his head in eating. Hearing what Shi Xie said, he just raised his head slightly, revealing his fat, thick, oily lips, which were vague. With a promise, he couldn't wait to grab the fresh and tender chicken thigh and stuff it into his mouth. How vicious and vicious the eating appearance must be.

Shi Xie forced a smile, a look of disgust flashed in his eyes.

He made an excuse at random and got up to say goodbye.Yuan Wei followed closely behind and went out as well.

Seeing Yuan Wei following, and there were no outsiders around, Shi Xie's face turned cold, like the frost of the winter moon, no longer the kindness just now, he gritted his teeth fiercely, and cursed in a low voice: "These damn things The barbarians! Sooner or later, I will let them know what the rules are!"

With a wry smile, Yuan Wei still frowned: "My lord, bear with it if you can. Now we need them. When Yuan Yao is defeated, whether these people live or die is not up to us. At present, We still need them."

"Hey!"

Walking around in the barracks, looking at the soldiers who were discussing a lot, Shi Xie could only use a sigh to express his mood at the moment. This majestic lord of a state needs help from outsiders in the end. , Naturally it is not good.

Yuan Wei was exquisite, so he naturally understood Shi Xie's reluctance. However, as a subordinate, he couldn't comfort him with words, so he could only follow behind quietly and express his attitude.

"You don't need to follow, go back and have a good rest, the content of this gauntlet is also written by you."

After walking all the way, Shi Xie broke the silence, and then, without waiting for Yuan Wei to say anything, he waved his hand and led his bodyguards to the place where the Champa soldiers camped.

Yuan Wei nodded, then turned around and walked back to her tent, lit the lamp, wrote a letter about the war with all her heart, and then fell asleep with her clothes on.

As for whether Yuan Yao will fight or not, that's none of his business.

It stands to reason that when two armies are at war, one side has a city for defense, so it is generally not easy to go out of the city to fight a decisive battle with the enemy.

However, Yuan Yao's situation is a bit special. He doesn't have a stable rear that can support him in a long-term contest with Shi Xie. All his combat deployments are based on a quick battle.

Although Nanhai has been operated by the district for many years and has gathered a lot of food and grass, but in truth, Nanhai is still too far away from Lingling County, and the barren land in the middle is just in the stage of reclamation. Provide strong protection.

Moreover, the warlords of the south who are eyeing the tiger do not want to see Yuan Yao calmly laying down a stable rear to fight against them. Although they are temporarily unable to make a move, that does not mean that they will never be able to make a move, not to mention other places, As far as Yuan Yao knew, Sun Ce was already ready to move.

Therefore, when receiving Shi Xie's decisive battle letter, Yuan Yao agreed without thinking about it.

Subconsciously, he also wanted to see how powerful those Zhancheng people were, who could give Shi Xie such great confidence, and risked losing their prestige by standing still.

Yuan Yao agreed readily, and Shi Xie acted even more readily, immediately the whole army pulled out their camp and formed a formation outside the city.

This time, I don't know if it was stimulated by the reinforcements, Shi Xie's soldiers were all excited, and even the county soldiers were not as depressed as before, they straightened their waists and stood guard on the two wings.

That's right, it's the two wings. This time, Shi Xie, who had full confidence, also paid enough money to transfer all the elite of the Shi family to the front.

Today's Shi Xie still rides in a gorgeous cart pulled by four horses.

It's just that he was no longer alone on the big cart, Prince Zhan of Zhancheng also sat on it in high spirits wearing a gorgeous leather coat.

Beside the two of them, apart from Shi Xie's personal soldiers, there were also a few thick-bodied barbarians standing fiercely around them, extremely prominent.

At this time, the city gate was also slowly opened, and countless soldiers rushed out quickly, leaning their backs against the city wall, forming a formation.

Surrounded by all the generals, Yuan Yao rode his horse and rushed to the front of the battle amidst the cheers of the soldiers of the three armies.

Cheng Yaojin led his white guards and carried countless shields, surrounding Yuan Yao layer upon layer.

This scene was very similar to Shi Xie's siege a few days ago.

Yuan Yao still leaned against the city wall, planning to use the archers on the city to hit the morale of the enemy first, and then go up to fight.

"Stupid, do you really think that such a strategy can be tried a hundred times without success?"

Shi Xie sneered, but his tone was very low, and he was obviously unhappy.

Shi Wu rode by his side, saw Yuan Yao repeating his old tricks, and his expression was not good, he spat hard, and cursed: "Arrogant boy, let him understand today, what is the height of heaven and earth. "

"This is that Yuan Yao, why does he look so weak and not at all heroic?"

Ou Zhan pointed at Yuan Yao, and said in a disdainful tone: "I can kill such a person with one hand. You were defeated by him?"

"Since your highness is so brave, why not go up and challenge us, let us open our eyes."

Shi Wu, who had long been unhappy with Ou Zhan, encouraged him in a strange way.

"To shut up!"

Shi Xie gave Shi Wu a hard look, then turned his head to Ou Zhan and said with a smile: "We are the commander of the army, how can we move lightly, we just need to command the army to charge and kill."

Before the words were finished, a soldier rushed over, knelt down and said: "My lord, Yuan Yao, the lord opposite, wants you to answer."

Want to talk again?

The corner of Shi Xie's mouth twitched, and his face immediately darkened.

Shi Wu at the side also had a wonderful expression on his face, hesitantly said: "Brother, Yuan Yao is extremely shameless, in my opinion it's better to ignore him."

Obviously, after the two brothers had fully experienced Yuan Yao's venomous tongue, they still had lingering fears, but Ou Zhan didn't know this, and exclaimed a little excitedly: "Since the opponent is calling the battle, we can't weaken our momentum, let's go up and let him see our Yueren It's amazing."

Shuzi!

Shi Xie's face turned even darker, and he couldn't offend Ou Zhan after all, so he pinched his nose and ordered the carriage forward with a face full of unwillingness, and came to the Qimen.

Shi Wu couldn't bear it first, and spoke first: "Sly man, what else do you have to say at this point, the wise ones quickly unload their armor, kneel down and beg for surrender."

Yuan Yaoli ignored the yelling Shiwu, just stared at Ou Zhan next to Shi Xie, and asked in a stern tone: "Mr. Shifu, Zhancheng is a rebellion of my big man. As the governor of a state, this is how you repay him." From the imperial court?"

"Ignorant boy, I wait for the Yue people to have their own dignity, how can I let you Han oppress me, today my army is here, you still don't kowtow to beg for surrender, lest you lose your life in vain."

Without waiting for Shi Xie to speak, Ou Zhan, who was touched by Ni Lin, was furious, got up immediately, and shouted loudly.
