The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

As long as they can withstand the first wave of charge, slow down the cavalry's impact, and engage in close combat, the advantage of the cavalry will not be so obvious.

"Everyone listen to my orders, stab with long spears, and carry heavy shields in front of you!"

Zhang Xiu took the initiative to charge towards Lu Bu on his horse.

The first thousand and 320 chapters and three chases and escapes

At this time, most of the soldiers and horses around Liu Bei are Liu Bei's personal soldiers, and they are absolutely elite.

Many of them belonged to Guan Yu's men before, they were really elite soldiers, and they were also white-eared elite soldiers trained by Liu Bei.

These men and horses are not ordinary soldiers, they are the elite recruited by Liu Bei from all over the Han Dynasty following Liu Zheng's example.

The strength is not to say that it is stronger than the trapped camp, and it will definitely not be too bad. It is still capable of fighting.

Zhang Xiu is also considered a veteran in the barracks, and he is quite courageous in commanding soldiers and horses. Following Zhang Xiu's orders, the soldiers in the front row quickly formed a tight formation.

They gathered densely and densely, trying to use their flesh and blood to resist the charge of the 2000 cavalry behind Lu Bu.

The voices of the cavalry gradually approached, and the sound of thump, thud, thud, was like a war drum, shaking the hearts of the soldiers present.

The soldiers under Liu Bei's command had already suffered a defeat and their morale was low. Although they were barely able to fight because of the small number of enemy troops at this moment, seeing the thousands of cavalry galloping forward with high morale, they still felt a little bit uneasy. fear.

Fortunately, there is Zhang Xiu, a famous general, guarding here.

Leading the remaining soldiers to resist, the morale was not broken in the first place, and the battle formation collapsed.

The soldiers and horses of the two sides collided together at this moment, and the 2000 camp soldiers under Lu Bu's command quickly rushed into the battlefield to confront Liu Bei's men and horses.

It's like 2000 wolves running into a herd of sheep.

At the first moment, there were screams and cries.

Liu Bei didn't even have time to pay too much attention to the battlefield.

Jian Yong, Xun Yan and others came in by his side.

"My lord, retreat quickly!"

Jian Yong and Xun Yan didn't have the heart to pay attention to the battle on this battlefield at this time, because no matter the outcome of the battle on this battlefield, it was meaningless to Liu Bei.

The battlefield is ruthless, and the sword has no eyes. If Liu Bei is injured, everything will be in vain.

Regardless of whether this battle is won or lost, as long as Liu Bei is still alive.

Then they are wins.

If this battle is won and Lu Bu is repelled, but in case Liu Bei suffers some damage in this battle.

That would be a big loss.

As advisors, their most important duty is to protect their lord from harm.

The most important thing right now is to let Liu Bei retreat from here first.

Jian Yong and Xun Yan, one on the left and the other on the right, advised Liu Bei.

Even if Liu Bei cares about fighting, he is unwilling to leave at this time.

But he couldn't stand the two counselors, and kept persuading him in his ears.

"If I leave, what will happen to these soldiers on the battlefield?"

"My lord, if you stay here, it will be of no use. General Zhang Xiu has to send troops to protect you."

"If we leave, Lu Bu's men will not be able to break through General Zhang Xiu's blockade, so they will retreat in spite of the difficulties."

Jian Yong has already talked about this, if Liu Bei stays here, he will not listen to persuasion.

"Well, if that's the case, then I won't stay here."

Liu Bei himself didn't have much ability to command the army, and his opponent at this time was Lu Bu.

It was not the first time that Liu Bei had fought against Lu Bu, so he naturally understood how terrible Lu Bu was, and besides, in Liu Bei's heart at this time, he still felt a little bit resigned to his life.

Stay here, in case the manpower under his command can't stop Lu Bu's attack.

Then Liu Bei will suffer.

So at this time, thinking about how to escape, to a safe place, is the best move.

Liu Bei, who had made up his mind to retreat from the battlefield, began to retreat towards Hulao Pass with his best [-] soldiers surrounded by two counselors.

But at this time, Lu Bu, who was rushing to the forefront of the battlefield, had also discovered Liu Bei's actions.

The purpose of Lu Bu coming here this time is to intercept Liu Bei.

After he led the army to rush to the battlefield, his eyes were always looking for Liu Bei's whereabouts.

When Liu Bei was about to escape on the battlefield, Lu Bu was shocked.

"Liu Bei, go away!"

Lu Bu yelled loudly, and immediately rode his horse in pursuit of Liu Bei's fleeing direction.

Some of the soldiers around Lu Bu were handed over to Gao Shun to command, and the other part followed Lu Bu in the direction where Liu Bei was fleeing.

Most of the people like Liu Bei are infantry, and there are very few people who even ride horses.

And Lu Bu's men and horses were all cavalry, and it was not difficult to chase Liu Bei.

Especially with a military general like Lu Bu personally leading the pursuit, those swarming enemy soldiers are not a single enemy at all in Lu Bu's hands.

Zhang Xiu, who was in charge of commanding the army, saw Lu Bu heading straight for Liu Bei, and immediately turned pale with fright, and rushed towards Lu Bu's position.

"The thief will stop being rampant, I will meet you!"

In order to buy time for Liu Bei to escape from here, Zhang Xiu drew out his long spear and approached Lu Bu's position head-on.

The long spear stabbed out and killed Lu Bu.

At this time, Lu Bu was stopped by several soldiers, but these soldiers were not Lu Bu's opponents at all, and Lu Bu defeated them in two or three hits.

It just so happened that Zhang Xiu's attack came in response.

"Have courage, dare to fight with me!"

Lu Bu didn't know Zhang Xiu, but felt that this person had some ability to dare to fight him, so he praised him casually.

Fang Tian's painted halberd quickly went up and collided with Zhang Xiu's weapon.

Lu Bu and Zhang Xiu soon started fighting.

But how could Zhang Xiu be Lu Bu's opponent?

Although he is known as the spear king of the Northland, he can survive dozens of moves in the hands of Guan Yu without losing.

Up to now, the opponent Zhang Xiu was facing was Lu Bu, the god of war that even Guan Yu was afraid of!

Lu Bu was impatient with Liu Bei at the moment, and he didn't have the time to slowly learn martial arts with Zhang Xiu here.

Therefore, when attacking, they are all killer moves, which makes it even more difficult for Zhang Xiu to deal with it.

In just three or five moves, Zhang Xiu was forced by Lu Bu's Fang Tian's painting halberd to the point where he could only parry and had no intention of attacking.

But even if he was defending with all his strength, Zhang Xiu frowned, feeling more and more difficult.

If it goes on like this, if it takes less than ten moves, Zhang Xiu will definitely lose.

Although Zhang Xiu wanted to help Liu Bei block Lv Bu's attack, he didn't dare to take it too seriously when he was in danger. He blocked Lv Bu's moves again. After realizing his limited ability, he decisively chose to retreat.

Lu Bu forced Zhang Xiu back, hesitating for a moment, although he chose to press up at this moment, he would definitely be able to kill Zhang Xiu at this time, but at the same time, because of this delay, Liu Bei might run away.

Because Zhang Xiu gave up Liu Bei, this choice was naturally clear to Lu Bu. He did not choose to kill Zhang Xiu, but chose to kill from among the many soldiers.

Chase in the direction Liu Bei escaped from.

The first thousand 320 chapter four Jian Yong's determination

Outside Hulao Pass.

It is less than [-] miles away from Hulao Pass. If you walk along the official road, you will be able to reach Hulao Pass.

But thirty li is not something that can be reached just by talking about it. Even if you move forward quickly, it will take at least one or two hours.

What's more, Liu Bei is now a little exhausted because of the long journey.

"My lord, General Zhang Xiu may not be able to withstand Lu Bu's attack!"

"We are still a long way from Hulao Pass. If we continue to flee in the direction of Hulao Pass at this moment, we may not be able to escape!"

After Jian Yong led Liu Bei to run for a certain distance, he began to feel a little out of breath.

Although they have horses, they are only enough for Liu Bei and a few others. There are more than a thousand soldiers here, and it is impossible to have enough for everyone.

Because of this, in order to let Liu Bei go first, it was decided that someone should stay and cover.

"Xianhe, what do you think?"

"My lord, Lu Bu is too strong. If we focus on chasing them, even if we leave early, we may not be able to run away. Their horses are very mobile."

"When they come after them, they will definitely come straight to Hulao Pass. If you want to avoid being caught up by them, my lord, I have a plan."

"Xianhe, tell me quickly."

"My lord, I will lead these cavalry in the direction of Hulaoguan to attract the attention of Lu Bu's pursuers. My lord, you will take a small number of your own soldiers and flee towards Hanoi County on horseback."

"Only in this way can Lu Bu come straight to me, and the lord will have a chance of survival."

Jian Yong was willing to sacrifice himself and use himself as a bait to protect Liu Bei from here.

If you go to the Tiger Prison, you will be easily chased by Lu Bu's men, and the chance of escape is slim.But if they go to Hanoi, they bypass Hulao Pass, go to Jiguan, then go to Hedong, and then return to Luoyang.

Although there will be a long delay in time, it is better than going directly to Hulao.

What Jian Yong said gave Liu Bei a perfect escape plan, but this plan was a little dangerous for Jian Yong himself.

Jian Yong led the rest of the troops towards Hulao Pass. Once Lv Bu's troops overtook him, he would most likely die.

So Liu Bei had to make a choice, whether to risk himself or let Jian Yong help him.

Just when Liu Bei didn't know how to make a choice, Xun Yan gave him an idea.

"Mr. Xuande, your life is important, let Mr. Jian Yong replace you. Let's take a small number of people and divert to Hanoi."

Xun Yan's words made Liu Bei, who was still hesitating, immediately make up his mind.

"Okay, since that's the case, the overall situation is the most important thing. I will take the troops to Hanoi. Mr. Jian Yong, you will take the remaining soldiers and horses to the direction of Hulao Pass, and then send someone to inform my second brother. Said that we are going to Hanoi County for the time being."

Since Liu Bei has decided to go to Hanoi County, he must tell Guan Yu the news. Otherwise, if Guan Yu, who is still in Chen County, continues to approach Yingchuan County, he will easily be surrounded by Liu Zheng who is stationed in Yingchuan County. Save.

Of course, Liu Bei had another plan in mind for such an order.

At this moment, there were only a thousand soldiers and horses around him, and some of them had to go to Hulao Pass, and the troops he brought went to Hanoi County. In the end, there must be only a few hundred people.

Even if this manpower reaches Hanoi County, it may not be able to hold military power.

Even if a polished commander arrives in Hanoi, he may not be able to make the local authorities obey his dispatch.

So we have to rely on these soldiers and horses under Guan Yu.

Only when Guan Yu leads the troops towards him can he have the absolute ability to continue to control the troops from all over the world to serve him.

After Liu Bei gave his orders, everyone immediately divided up.

Liu Bei took Xun Yan and more than 300 elite troops and began to leave in the direction of Hanoi County. After Liu Bei and the others left, Jian Yong took the rest of the troops and headed for Hulao Pass.

Jian Yong handed over all the horses to Liu Bei, and he had to take the horses and go there on foot, although it was only thirty miles away from Hulao Pass.

But if you want to rely on these people, it still takes more than an hour to walk to Hulao Pass.

"Quick, quick, Hulao Pass is ahead, hurry up, as long as we get to Hulao Pass, everything will be safe!"

After walking for more than an hour, Jian Yong's legs were tired and a little weak, but in order to be able to get down safely as soon as possible, he urged the troops under his command to speed up and walk to Hulao Pass.

The other side looked back from time to time to see if there were any pursuers coming up from behind.

Once you notice that there are chasing soldiers behind you, it is possible to gather them with great difficulty, and this manpower will fall apart in an instant.

Fortunately, after a few glances.Jian Yong couldn't see any pursuers behind him, so he calmed down with a sigh of relief.

But Jian Yong breathed a sigh of relief, and the next second he heard a slight sound of horseshoes coming from behind him.

After hearing this voice, Jian Yong's expression changed instantly.
