Three Kingdoms: Jiehu becomes stronger from the beginning of Taoyuan's three knots

Chapter 37 Strong Combat Power
Zhang Niujiao saw that Chu Yan was really blaming himself, so he quickly waved his hand and said.

"Forget it, anyway, he has come now, let's think about how to deal with him."

Chu Yan's eyes rolled wildly after hearing this, and finally he came up with a pocket strategy to ambush from all sides.

In fact, this strategy is very simple, that is, let Liu Ce's troops in first, and then let the ambush soldiers come out from all sides, and use the advantage of numbers to eat the enemy in one bite.

Under normal circumstances, Chu Yan's strategy should be a very conservative strategy of using more to defeat fewer.

But his mistake was that he underestimated the combat effectiveness of Liu Ce's army, and even underestimated the command and bravery of Liu Ce's generals.

So ten days later, when Chu Yan and Zhang Niujiao's army of more than 50 troops began to close the encirclement.

Only then did they realize that the pockets they arranged couldn't be tightened at all!
Zhang Niujiao's position in the central army, from time to time, scouts came to report the latest battle situation.

"Report!! Guan Yu beheaded the general of the vanguard army, and the vanguard army was pierced!"

"Report!! Wei Yan and Zhang Yun led the army to raid the camp, and our army's food and grass are gone..."

"Report!! Zhang Fei and Xu Chu teamed up to destroy 43 camps of our army, and they are attacking the Chinese army!"

"Report!! Huang Zhong and Tai Shici captured 37 military strongholds in Beishan, and our ambush troops were wiped out!"

One battle report after another was like thunder after thunder, Zhang Niujiao and Chu Yan couldn't close their mouths in shock.

Before they even saw Liu Ce's face, more than half of their troops were dispersed.

Chu Yan is a decisive person, he stood up and said when Zhang Niujiao was still undecided.

"Brother, the overall situation is settled, we are powerless! Withdraw our troops!"

Zhang Niujiao is not reconciled to this!
After he became the first brother of the Hebei Yellow Turban Army, he led the army to attack twice.

He also met Liu Ce these two times, and he was defeated so embarrassingly both times!

"I'm not reconciled, I'm really not reconciled!"

Seeing this, Chu Yan sighed heavily and continued to persuade.

"Brother, the green hills left behind are not afraid of running out of firewood! Let's evacuate quickly, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave if it's too late!"

After Zhang Niujiao heard this, he instantly felt more than ten years older.

At this moment, he suddenly wanted to understand a lot of questions.

"Where is Liu Ce? Can't you find out where Liu Ce himself is?"

Chu Yan frowned slightly after hearing this question, but he really hadn't thought about it.

"I'm afraid he is hiding behind and strategizing? That's why our scouts couldn't find any news about him..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Niujiao began to shake his head slowly.

"No! Absolutely not like this! You haven't fought against him, and you still don't know him. If I'm not wrong, it's too late for us to leave now."

Chu Yan immediately became a little nervous after hearing this.

"Brother, what do you mean by that?"

As soon as he said these words, suddenly a detective horse covered in blood rushed in front of the two of them.

When the man saw Zhang Niujiao, he immediately shouted with the last of his strength.

"General! Liu Ce is coming! He's coming from behind us! Let's go..."

Before he finished speaking, Tan Ma fell off his horse and died of exhaustion.

Zhang Niujiao's face was livid, and Chu Yance immediately went and shouted.

"Brother, you leave first and I'll stop you later!"

After Zhang Niujiao heard it, he threw a token in his arms to Chu Yan very calmly, and then said in a cold voice with a little loneliness.

"I can't go anymore, but you still have a chance! Pass on my commander-in-chief, and the Black Mountain Army will use Chu Yan as commander in the future! Those who don't follow will be dealt with as rebellion."

Zhang Niujiao said this to the lieutenants and leaders behind him.

Everyone was stunned for a moment when they heard this, and then they clasped their fists and said yes.

When Chu Yan was still in a state of confusion, Zhang Niujiao had already rode his horse up to him.

"Brother, my daughter and your sister-in-law are all entrusted to you! The Black Mountain Army is also entrusted to you!"

Hearing Zhang Niujiao's heartfelt words, Chu Yan immediately nodded vigorously and said.

"Brother, after today I will share the surname Zhang with you! There is no Chu Yan in Montenegro, only Zhang Yan!"

Zhang Niujiao was also very moved after hearing this, and immediately ordered someone to protect Zhang Yan and quietly left from the Chinese army.

Not long after Zhang Yan left, a cavalry led by Liu Ce, Dian Wei, and Chen Dao rushed to the front of Zhang Niujiao's Chinese army formation.

None of Zhang Niujiao's generals could fight at all, and they were all solved by Dian Wei and Chen Dao just by meeting each other.

The Montenegrin Army can be said to be invincible when they fight smoothly, but they are a little powerless when they encounter a reverse war.

For example, Zhang Niujiao's central army originally had [-] elite generals.

But when Liu Ce killed more than 3000 people, nearly 2 people ran away immediately.

After playing for a while, I will see that there are less than 1 people left.

After waiting for Dianwei and Chen Dao to lead the army to charge twice, there were less than 1000 soldiers left by Zhang Niujiao's side.

A disintegrated army is nothing more than a mess.

Liu Ce did not take advantage of the danger, but rode his horse and stood in front of Zhang Niujiao's formation.

"I respect you for being a man! Now I will give you two ways, one is to surrender and follow me. The other is to die in battle and protect your reputation. Choose yourself!"

Zhang Niujiao didn't think about living when he decided to stay.

So, he slowly raised the knife and said.

"I will give you two choices too! Either I die today and you live, or you live and I die!"

After hearing this, the originally tragic atmosphere instantly became less serious.

Liu Ce's brows were also twisted into twists at this time.

"Is there any difference between these two?"

Zhang Niujiao didn't leave Liu Ce any time to think. After speaking, he immediately spurred his horse and rushed over.

Naturally, Liu Ce was not timid to fight, so he urged his horse to fight quickly!
After a while, the two horses crossed, and Zhang Niujiao was stabbed by Liu Ce and fell off the horse.

Seeing this, Liu Ce's soldiers immediately cheered and shouted, but he himself reined in his horse and stood there for a long time.

"Why does this guy want to die?"

It turned out that Zhang Niujiao hadn't used any effective offense or defense for the moment when the two passed each other.

He just swung his knife lightly forward, and then directly bumped into Liu Ce's Red Gallbladder Fire Dragon Spear.

Zhang Niujiao is committing suicide!

Later, Liu Ce ordered people to clean up the battlefield, and Dian Wei caught a doctor who specialized in treating Zhang Niujiao.

From what he said, Liu Ce learned that Zhang Niujiao had long since become ill due to injuries after years of fighting.

Only then did Liu Ce understand why Zhang Niujiao was so eager to die.

He thought he died earlier, maybe he was using someone as a cover, right?

Before Liu Ce could figure it all out, the gate of the distance city was already opened.

At this time, a team of more than a thousand people suddenly came out from behind.

The leader riding the horse was a tall and thick man, and he was yelling at Liu Ce with a gun at the moment.

"Bold thief! Don't enter the city! Take a shot from grandpa Yan Liang first! Kill him!"
