Lu Bu thought for a while, and agreed.

Yingshan, the terrain is not considered dangerous, but Yingshan is overgrown with vegetation, if an army hides in it, it will be difficult to be found.

The latest news of the enemy army kept coming from scouts. Lu Bu smiled and said, "The enemy army is only thirty miles away from our army. You should prepare more boulders, and then give the enemy army a head-on blow."

"The last general has ordered people to make preparations." Yu Jin clasped his fists and said.

This time, the main force in ambushing the enemy's vanguard in Yingshan was Yu Jin's [-] crossbow troops.

At the beginning, Yu Jin trained a thousand crossbowmen, and the results were good, especially the three-stage shooting, which gave people an amazing sense of coordination, so Lu Bu directly increased Yu Jin's men to 3000.

This is the first time that the Strong Crossbow Army has appeared on the battlefield. Yu Jin is quite excited. After taking refuge in Lu Bu, he was able to receive such attention in a short period of time, which made Yu Jin full of emotion. In the past, he was under Bao Xin's command. It is unimaginable that the enemies who have taken refuge in Bao Xin will be treated like this without being reused.

This also made Yu Jin very grateful to Lu Bu. A general, no matter how talented he is, is useless if he doesn't have the opportunity to display his talent.

Lu Bu's trust required more efforts from Yu Jin on the battlefield.

This ambush is an opportunity for the Argentine Army.

As long as Zhang Xun didn't find out about Yingshan's problem, with the strong crossbow army, Zhang Xun would be dealt a head-on blow.

In Yingshan, there was a little silence, and cavalry came from time to time, and they were the scouts under Zhang Xun's command.

For the army to move forward, scouts must be constantly inquiring about the situation on the battlefield. Zhang Xun is a general under Yuan Shu's command, so the reason for this is naturally clear.

"General, our army was ambushed in Eagle Mountain before, and the army suffered heavy losses." The deputy general reminded.

Zhang Xun said with a smile: "That's Lei Bo and Chen Lan's incompetence. I will go out in person, how can I give the enemy a chance?"

"The general is mighty, unstoppable." A general echoed.

"Before the Xuzhou army won the victory in ambush in Yingshan, do you think the Xuzhou army would be so stupid to ambush in Yingshan?" Zhang Xun said.

Chapter 264 Order the army, move forward quickly

Hearing the words, the lieutenant general showed a pensive look on his face. Zhang Xun's words made sense. After falling down in one place, he would definitely be more careful next time he walked here. The Xuzhou Army would also consider such a problem of.

"My lord's army is only [-] miles away from our army. If something happens in the Eagle Mountain, the cavalry under my lord's command can come quickly." Zhang Xun said.

"The general is wise." The generals in the army echoed one after another.

Zhang Xun waved his hands and said, "I was ordered to fight, and naturally I hope to win. The military order is issued, and if there is any violation, it will be punished by military law."

"Besides, there must be no negligence in the investigation of Yingshan's situation."

"Here." All the generals said in unison.

Zhang Xun is the commander-in-chief of the vanguard army. Under Yuan Shu's command, he also has a high status. Faced with Zhang Xun's orders, the generals in the army have to be cautious. If they offend Zhang Xun, they want to make greater progress in the army in the future. It is simply impossible.

It is very difficult for poor scholars to grow up, and the same is true for military generals without background. If you want to get promoted in status, you must first have people who are promoted. It will become a joke in the eyes of others.

More and more scouts were dispatched to Yingshan, which made Yu Jin feel a little depressed when he heard the news. This time the ambush was coming, but it was time for the Argentine Army to show their edge. If the scouts of the enemy army found out, this time The action can only end without a problem.

Lu Bu smiled and said, "Wen He, from this point of view, Zhang Xun is also a very careful person."

Jia Xu nodded and said: "Zhang Xun is one of Yuan Shu's most important generals, so he must have some ability, but the transfer of Pengcheng's army will not give Zhang Xun too much time to investigate Yingshan."

"Tell the soldiers in ambush on Yingshan not to move without orders, and just wait for the opportunity. As long as these scouts don't get close, it will be difficult to find our army." Lu Bu said.

Yu Banlow claimed yes, and walked away quickly.

Since it was an ambush in advance, he must have made sufficient preparations for hiding. As for the camouflage outside, there will be a Spike team to help. In this regard, the elite soldiers of the Spike team have rich experience.

Zhang Xun appointed Yuan Shu as a vanguard general, and he has certain skills. Yuan Shu attaches great importance to this battle. This is related to whether Yuan Shu can successfully drive Lu Bu out of Xuzhou. Yuan Shu definitely does not want to fail. In the end, it is reasonable to pay more attention to the vanguard army.

The vanguard army is the most elite part of an army. It is necessary to pass the news of the front for the Chinese army in a timely manner, so that the Chinese army can have a deeper understanding of the situation on the battlefield. It is not a skill Generals cannot serve.

Zhang Xun frowned slightly at the news that the scouts kept sending back. The scouts never found any traces of active enemy troops in Yingshan.

There are quite a few roads in Yingshan Mountain. Most of these roads are left by the common people walking in normal times. Now that Yuan Shu’s army is pressing down on the land, if the people in Pengcheng have nothing to do, they will definitely not come out and walk around easily, and no one will take their lives as a joke. .

"General, there is news from the elaboration that there are [-] troops in Pengcheng, and they are coming to Yingshan. Looking at the flags in the army, it looks like Lu Bu is personally leading the troops." A general said hastily.

Lu Bu has been famous for a long time, and he is the number one fierce general in the world. Against such a fierce general, he must be more cautious. Before that, the soldiers under Yuan Shu's command often suffered losses in Lu Bu's hands.

Zhang Xun nodded and said: "From this point of view, it must be Lu Bu who wants to stop our army at Yingshan. Although the road through Yingshan is not narrow, if the Xuzhou army has arrangements on the other side, there will still be dangers for our army to pass. Not a little trouble."

"General, what should we do?"

"Command the army to move forward quickly, Deputy General Zhao, you lead [-] soldiers and horses first." Zhang Xun said.

"Here." Deputy General Zhao clasped his fists.

Zhang Xun had certain doubts in his heart. Yingling is the fastest road. It is impossible for Lu Bu's advisers not to notice this. In the past, the Xuzhou army did have an ambush in Yingling. No one can be sure. Things, will not happen again.

As a vanguard general, you must take more circumstances into consideration, and try your best to pave the way for the rear army while avoiding damage to the lieutenant soldiers.

In Pengcheng, Yuan Shu's army is determined to win. In Zhang Xun's view, as long as his own army confronts Xuzhou's army head-on, victory is inevitable. He has a high status under Yuan Shu's account and knows some confidential things.

Deputy General Zhao gathered three thousand soldiers and rushed to Yingling first.

The terrain on both sides of Yingling is not high, but the mountains on both sides are hard to see through. Now is the time when the trees are abundant, even if the soldiers of the army go to the mountains on both sides to inquire about the situation, there are many Difficulties.

Compared with the heat outside, Yingling looked much cooler, and many soldiers showed expressions of enjoyment.

"My lord, the enemy army has sent soldiers into Yingling, do you want to do it?" Yu Jin asked.

Seeing Lu Bu cast his gaze, Jia Xu stroked his beard, "From the news from the scouts, it is only a part of the vanguard army passing through Yingling at this time, it must have been done by Zhang Xun on purpose. Wait a little longer, even if Zhang Xun sees through the scheme by then, the enemy troops passing through Yingling will have difficulty surviving."

"Wen He's words are reasonable." Lu Bu nodded.

Three thousand soldiers passed through Yingling, but there were quite a number of them. The Xuzhou soldiers who were ambushing in Yingling were very excited.

In the Xuzhou army, the emphasis is on orders and prohibitions. Without orders, no one should act rashly, otherwise, they will be punished according to military discipline.

Strict discipline is also what Lu Bu has always emphasized in the army. No matter how strong the strength of the soldiers in the army is, if they are like a piece of loose sand on the battlefield, it will be difficult to do more.

After learning that Vice General Zhao led the army through Yingling and set up a formation, Zhang Xun felt relieved, and immediately led his soldiers to Yingling.

Some generals were dissatisfied with Zhang Xun's cautiousness. Now that the army is overwhelming, the vanguard army alone has tens of thousands of people. At this time, Lu Bu must be sticking to Pengcheng. How dare he attack easily, but such emotions can only be well hidden. .

Approaching Yingling, Zhang Xun felt a little uneasy, mainly because Yingling felt too quiet.

Ordinarily, there should be many birds and beasts in Yingshan Mountain, why did no birds appear when the army came.

Chapter 265 Marquis Wen is here, those who surrender will not be killed!

"Command the army to stop moving forward." Zhang Xun ordered.

"General, Yingling is just ahead. Our army can pass by at most half an hour. Why stop?" a general asked puzzled.

Zhang Xun said: "Why are there no birds in the mountains on both sides?"

"Perhaps Vice General Zhao led the soldiers and horses to scare the birds away," said the general.

Zhang Xun shook his head slightly and said: "Vice General Zhao has passed by for a quarter of an hour. Even if the bird is frightened, it will definitely return, not fly away."

Having said that, Zhang Xun still has certain doubts about the ambush in Yingling.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Yingling was still as quiet as before, and news about Vice General Zhao continued to come in.

"Could it be that the general was too careful?" Zhang Xun murmured.

The Xuzhou army will come to Yingling soon. If they line up outside Yingling, it is no problem to resist the Xuzhou army. If they do not arrange in advance, they will suffer a lot. In the Xuzhou army, but There are many elites, such as the Xiaoqi Battalion and the elite trapping camp, which are two elites under Lu Bu's command.

"Command the army, move on!" Zhang Xun ordered.

Zhang Xun's army stopped, but it made the Xuzhou soldiers ambushing on both sides a little depressed. The ambush can only be effective if the enemy passes by. Otherwise, how can it cause greater casualties to the enemy? Surprisingly, the enemy moved on.

"Soldiers, get ready to launch the most violent attack on the enemy's central army." Lu Bu ordered.

The vanguard army also has a central army, and those in the central army must be important figures in the enemy army. It is of the most significance to kill an important general of an army.

Zhang Xun didn't realize that the danger was approaching. The situation in Yingling made him feel uneasy at the beginning, but when he thought about it carefully, there was absolutely no need for Lu Bu to set up an ambush in Yingling and send a large army.

The banner belonging to Zhang Xun was fluttering in the wind. After thousands of soldiers entered Yingling, they were not moving very fast. The coolness in Yingling was not comparable to that outside. The soldiers in the army also wanted to be more comfortable. Then for a while.

The Chinese army that Zhang Xun was in had just entered Yingling when densely packed Xuzhou soldiers suddenly appeared on the mountains on both sides, but the strong crossbows in the hands of these soldiers radiated a dark light, they were the strong crossbow troops trained by Yu Jin.

"Fire the arrows!" Yu Jin ordered without hesitation.

Three thousand crossbowmen released their arrows at the enemy in Yingling.

The speed of rewinding the crossbow is not small compared to the bow and arrow, but the strength of the crossbow is stable. Even ordinary soldiers can control the crossbow proficiently after a certain amount of training.

The sound of crossbow bolts tearing the air broke the harmonious atmosphere in Yingling.

"General, be careful!" a general shouted.

Dense arrows poured down from both sides.

Zhang Xun's complexion changed drastically, and he rolled off the horse directly. In the face of the crisis of life and death, he didn't care about his image.

The war horse under Zhang Xun was shot by dozens of crossbow arrows, like a hedgehog.

Several soldiers who stepped forward to protect Zhang Xun also fell into a pool of blood.

His right arm was stabbed by a crossbow arrow, and Zhang Xun's face was pale. If the general hadn't been reminded in time by the dignified general, he would be the one who fell in a pool of blood at this time.

"Retreat!" Zhang Xun shouted, enduring the pain from his right arm.

The Xuzhou army set up an ambush in Yingling. If Zhang Xun could not retreat from Yingling in time, Zhang Xun would face heavy casualties.

"Zhang Xun, when you see this Marquis coming, hurry up and get off your horse and accept the surrender!" Lv Bu, dressed in military uniform, shouted loudly.

The angry shout was heard by more soldiers under Zhang Xun's command. Who else in the Xuzhou army dared to call themselves the Marquis besides Lu Bu.

Lu Bu still had a high prestige in Yuan Shu's army, and Lu Bu's prestige was obtained through victories in battles.

"Marquis Wen is here, and those who surrender will not be killed!" Xu Chuyun shouted with full strength.

Below the Eagle Ridge, there was chaos. The team that was going forward suddenly retreated. It was conceivable that the panic brought to the lieutenant soldiers. They all wanted to escape here as soon as possible. The general's shouts were not effective for them. constraints.

The surprise attack of the Xuzhou army was beyond Zhang Xun's expectations. They had not prepared accordingly before. Even the elite soldiers under Zhang Xun's command could hardly display [-]% of their normal combat effectiveness at this time.

Such is the case in wars, the side that is surprised will often achieve unexpected results.

Huge boulders were pushed down from the mountain by the soldiers of the Xuzhou Army. It was difficult to defend against such an absolutely powerful attack. Many shield soldiers raised their shields in their hands, trying to block the boulders falling from the sky, but the shields shattered The fate of death.

The sound of wailing and shouting and killing converged into the battlefield melody of Yingling.

The most important task of the soldiers of the Strong Crossbow Army is to continuously release the crossbow arrows in their hands, causing more damage to the enemy troops below. This is a great opportunity to gain credit.

Under the protection of the lieutenant soldiers, Zhang Xun fought his way out of Yingling. At the entrance of Yingling, he waited for more soldiers to return.

As the general, Zhang Xun still chose to retreat, not to mention the chaos in Yingling. Even soldiers who intend to surrender to Lv Bu must be careful of attacks from above at such a time. Boulders and arrows falling from the sky will not Changed direction based on the choice of soldiers.

The chaos below excited the generals of the Xuzhou Army. The fighting power shown by the enemy was nothing more than that, which also gave more soldiers greater confidence in the future battles.

Deputy General Zhao learned that the Xuzhou army was coming from Pengcheng, but he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest. After walking out of Yingling, he immediately ordered the lieutenant generals to prepare to face the Xuzhou army.

The soldiers of the vanguard army are relatively elite in Yuan Shu's army. Vice-General Zhao still has great confidence in winning. Besides, judging from the information sent by the scouts, the Xuzhou army only dispatched 5000 people, even if there are cavalry among them, Prepare carefully and wait for the arrival of the army, there is no problem at all.

"General Zhao, something is wrong. The Xuzhou army set up an ambush in Yingling. General Zhang was ambushed, and the army was in chaos."

Deputy General Zhao asked in disbelief: "The Xuzhou army set up an ambush in Yingling?"

"Exactly, General Zhang sent an order for Vice General Zhao to immediately lead the army to attack Yingling and drive the Xuzhou army away!"

Vice General Zhao nodded and said, "I know."

Three thousand soldiers came to Yingling.

At this time, the soldiers of the Xuzhou Army had a numerical advantage, condescending, and it was easier to cause damage to the enemy.

Chapter 266 It's Better to Surrender to Marquis Wen

The chaos in Yingling made Deputy General Zhao look very bad. The vanguard army has extraordinary meaning. Such a serious loss in Yingling will inevitably be punished after returning to the army. Zhang Xun is a general under Yuan Shu's command. , has a very high status in the army, and he is just a general who was lucky enough to become the deputy general of the army. If this kind of thing happens, someone will definitely be punished.

"Attack quickly!" Deputy General Zhao ordered.
