Han counter current

"This place is under my control now, you all work obediently, and I won't treat you badly."

Seeing the dozen or so old city guards kneeling at the gate, Chen Feng reprimanded them a few words, and then led the troops into Hulao Pass. At the same time, Chen Feng's cronies took over the important task of guarding the city gate.

"Report, my lord, dust and smoke are rising in the east, and it seems that an enemy army is coming."

As soon as Chen Feng entered the city, he heard the report from his subordinates. It seemed that Cao Jun's first reinforcements were about to arrive.

"Array two thousand cavalry and follow me out of the city to fight."

It's not that Chen Feng doesn't want to defend the city, the key is that his side has just arrived at Hulao Pass, and the soldiers under his command are exhausted, and his side mainly consists of cavalry and is not good at defending the city.

Only by going out of the city to fight, defeating or giving the enemy a disarm, can it be possible to buy enough time to deploy defenses.

Soon, the [-] ghost-faced troops and [-] Qiang cavalry were assembled. This was deliberately selected by Chen Feng. More Qiang cavalry will participate in the next battle. He needs to let these people become familiar with them as soon as possible and wait for him to dispatch. .

"Kill, defeat the enemy, there will be a lot of rewards,,,,"

Although they were exhausted, under the heavy reward, the soldiers were full of fighting spirit. Two thousand cavalry, fully armed, crossed the city gate and rushed towards the east.

"Slow, stop, set up,,,,,,"

Looking at the city wall that had already appeared in sight, Man Chong smiled wryly and shook his head. After all, he came a step late. How could the speed of infantry be comparable to that of war horses.

"The shield soldiers are in the front, the pikemen are in the front, and the archers are in the rear. They all cheer me up. The enemy is coming soon."

The sound of horseshoes in the distance indicated that there were cavalry galloping, and Man Chong was a battle-hardened man who knew how to deal with it.

"General, retreat. Chen Feng's army is famous for its cavalry. Our army is all infantry, and it is mainly composed of county and county soldiers. It is difficult to win."

As the most favored lieutenant general, Niu Jin naturally knew what his general wanted to do, and he also knew how much risk he would take.

At the beginning, Niu Jin was originally under Cao Ren's tent, but after Cao Ren's death, he was also transferred to other generals' army. After some twists and turns, this time he became Man Chong's subordinate.

"No, our army has come from a long distance and is exhausted. If we retreat at this time, we will only be chased and killed by the enemy. Besides, our army is mainly composed of county and county soldiers. Their morale is not high and they have experienced few battles.

If we just retreat like this, we are afraid that we will be overwhelmed by the enemy, and we will definitely be defeated by then.In addition, we came to support Chang'an under the order of the military division, and the task was to occupy Hulao Pass.

If you retreat without a fight, how will you explain to the master at that time.Besides, sometimes fighting is not necessarily for victory.

Since the Battle of Liyang that year, our army has hardly fought against Chen Feng, and we have little understanding of the combat effectiveness of his soldiers and horses.

I just took this opportunity to see the strength of the army that defeated the Xiongnu army, so I will report it to the lord. "

Seeing the cavalry appearing in the distance, Man Chong's face became serious, a murderous aura floated from a distance, and Man Chong could feel the strength of the opponent.

"Since that's the case, the last general will go crazy with the general."

In the distance, Chen Feng raised his hand and signaled the cavalry behind to slow down their horses. After running wildly for so long, his men needed to rest, and the horses also needed to take a breather.

"It was Chen Feng who came in person. Hehe, it's better this way. It is rumored that Chen Feng made the prime minister suffer a lot back then. Today I want to see it."

Looking at the Chen Zi banner in the distance, and the vague but familiar figure under the banner, Man Chong smiled.

"Is it Bo Ning? Unexpectedly, we will meet here. It is not a coincidence that you came today. The Hulaoguan is already in my hands. Please come from a long way."

While saying hello, Chen Feng comforted the war horse. Even the one-in-a-million war horse he rode couldn't stand such a long-distance gallop.

"General You was joking, Hulaoguan was originally under the jurisdiction of the prime minister, General You went south without reason, invaded Chang'an, and attacked our army, this is a crime of deceiving the emperor.

If General You repents now and can leave as soon as possible, I will report to the Prime Minister and plead with His Majesty to spare you, General, your guilt. "

"Hahaha, Bo Ning, you are still so good at talking. Seeing that you have come from a long way, I don't care about you anymore. How about it? You are tired now.

I allow you to rest for half an hour. If you don't retreat within half an hour, I won't be polite. Come here and start the timer. "

After finishing speaking, Chen Feng jumped off the horse, took a few sips of water from the water bag, and then fed the horse some water and food.

This posture, it seems that he really does not want to fight, but more like he is here to walk the horse and hunt.Soon, the subordinates behind Chen Feng also jumped off their horses and began to eat and drink in a decent manner.

"General, what does he mean? Could it be that he wants to let us go?"

"Hey, Niu Jin, you underestimated Chen Feng. They deliberately stayed three hundred steps away from our army. Although they seemed to be resting, they never left their weapons and horses.

If our army really retreats, it will definitely attract the enemy's pursuit. Chen Feng, it's a good plan. "

"Ah, so ruthless, shall we just watch them rest?"

"Don't worry, let me think about it, what should I do..."

Both sides were exhausted, but Chen Feng's men were all cavalry, taking the initiative, so he wanted to rest, but Man Chong really didn't know what to do.

Chapter 482 Battle in the Tiger Prison 2

Seeing that the cavalry on the opposite side were resting one by one, some soldiers even deliberately provoked their own soldiers, which was unbearable.

"Come on, pass the order down. The whole army is divided into three teams, and they take turns to rest."

After thinking for a while, Man Chong could only adopt this method. The other party needed to rest, and he also needed to rest.

"Interesting, Man Chong, you are indeed a talent under Cao Cao. Although this method cannot solve your own predicament, it has resolved the crisis to a certain extent.

Hmph, no matter, then I won't waste time with you, come, the whole army is divided into four teams, and the first team is sent to attack, and greet the enemy with bows and arrows. "

The current plan is not to let the opponent rest. Chen Feng needs half a time to restore the strength of most of his men and horses, but at the same time, he cannot let the enemy's morale increase.

The five hundred cavalry scattered and headed towards Manchong. The five hundred Qiang cavalry bowed their bows and set up arrows one by one, aiming at the generals of Cao Jun in a team of ten.

"Oops, he is trying to exhaust our army to death."

Five hundred cavalry is not a lot compared to thousands of Cao Jun soldiers, and their formation is so scattered, it is even more insignificant.

But these five hundred cavalrymen shot arrows from different directions, and the athletes riding on the horses came and went like the wind, Cao Jun's generals were almost impossible to guard against.

After a stick of incense, the five hundred cavalry quickly retreated, and then another group of cavalry caught up again, the same five hundred cavalry, and the same five hundred cavalry bows.

"The whole army listened to the order, lined up, and retreated slowly..."

Seeing the sharp increase in the number of casualties on his side, Man Chong knew that he could no longer confront the enemy.

"Hey, it's not stupid to retreat now."

Seeing Cao's army retreating, Chen Feng showed a sneer. Naturally, it would be best to repel the enemy at the least cost. After all, there are not many soldiers on his side.

"If you want to leave like this, isn't it too embarrassing for me..."

Most of Man Chong's subordinates are infantry. Although there are various types of arms, both offensive and defensive, but under the threat of cavalry, the speed of movement will definitely not be fast.

"Chasing and killing, looking for opportunities to kill and injure the enemy."
