I am Li Shimin of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 223
At this time, Zhang Liao was always looking for an opportunity to annihilate Gongsun Zan, and Zhang Liao had already taken the strategic initiative. He had set up a large net and waited for Gongsun Zan to penetrate into it.

Unexpectedly, he had received Gongsun Zan's letter of challenge. Seeing Gongsun Zan rushing to his death, Zhang Liao was naturally very excited, and hurriedly invited the Lieutenant General and General Xi Zhicai over to discuss the decisive battle.

Everyone discussed in secret all morning, and finally decided to go to the battle. Everyone felt that this was an excellent opportunity to wipe out Gongsun Zan's main force.

Once Gongsun Zan is allowed to escape, it is tantamount to letting the tiger go back to the mountain and the dragon to the sea. If you want to destroy him in Youzhou or even Liaodong, it will be extremely difficult.

Although somewhat risky, it's worth trying.

In the end Zhang Liao, Xi Zhicai, Yan Xing and others decided to go to the battle, but before that, they must make sufficient preparations to wipe out Gongsun Zan in one fell swoop.

Soon the two parties agreed that ten days later, there would be a fair life-and-death duel thirty miles south of Zhuo County.

This battle is about the life and death of 10,000+ people, and this battle is also about the ownership of Youzhou.

Naturally, Gongsun Zan would not fight unprepared, and he was definitely not a gambler who lost his eyes. The reason why he dared to fight the Bingzhou Army was naturally a honor, at least in his opinion, it had a great chance of winning.

Zhang Liao naturally has his own hidden killer moves, the outcome is unpredictable.

Ten days later, the armies of both sides gathered in the area of ​​Liangxiang, thirty miles south of Zhuoxian County. The banners of both sides were unfurled, and what seemed to be an endless forest of long halberds and a sea of ​​swords and guns was densely packed.

The 10,000+ army confronted each other across the air, their murderous aura filled the world, the air on the battlefield was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, and the rustling autumn wind came from the west, whistling fiercely, and the atmosphere was extremely chilling.

Almost at the same time, the war drums and horns of the two armies thundered, and the shouts of "Ho Ho Ho..." resounded through the sky, and the huge sound made people's blood boil.

…………

The two armies are like tigers ready to go, waiting for the final moment to attack.

Zhang Liao, Bu Xugu, Xi Zhicai and others stood in front of the formation, they did not send troops immediately, but looked at the Youzhou army from a distance, their expressions were calm, they were not in a hurry, nor panicked at all.

At this time, a soldier who looked like a scout army rushed over on horseback, and reported in a deep voice: "General Qi, I found enemy cavalry fifty miles to the north of our army. There are about 8000 to [-] soldiers, all of whom are heavily armored. The leader's banner is ' "Strict" flag."

"Hiss...Gongsun Zan secretly transferred Yan Gang's Bai Mayi back from the Yuyang front line. It seems that he is going to put all his eggs in one basket." Xi Zhicai said with a frown.

It turned out that Yan Gang was left behind by Gongsun Zan to prevent Xianbei and Wuhuan aliens from rebelling, and he led the most elite Baima Yicong in Youzhou.But at this time, he should be fighting with Xian Yufu's coalition forces, but he was transferred here.

Zhang Liao still didn't change his face, he pondered for a moment, and ordered to the Lingqi beside him: "Come on, send an order to General Yan Xing, his opponent has appeared, let him pay close attention to the movement of this enemy, and be sure to wipe it out without any mistakes. !"

"No!" After saying that, Ling Qi galloped towards the east quickly.

"This time we have to see whether Baima Yicong is stronger or Xiliang cavalry is stronger." Zhang Liaoan thought about it.

Xi Zhicai also nodded silently when he heard the words. In his opinion, it was just right for Yan Xing's Xiliang iron cavalry to attack, and the chances of winning are still high.

…………

Gongsun Zan also did not act rashly. He watched the enemy army on the opposite side with cold eyes. From the immobile formation of the enemy, Gongsun Zan saw the clues and felt the boundless murderous aura. He sighed in his heart that the Bingzhou army really deserved its reputation.

But soon he regained his unruly spirit, "Hmph! Zhang Liao fights with me, you are too tender, and we don't know who will win the battle."

Tian Yu on the side immediately stepped forward and said respectfully: "My lord, General Yan's army has arrived at the designated position and is ready to launch a surprise attack."

"Okay! This time, Zhang Liao must be overwhelmed." Gongsun Zan said viciously.

…………

"General, everything is ready, everything is ready, please allow me the Xiongnu tiger and leopard army to attack first." Bu Xugu volunteered.

At this time, Zhang Liao's preparations were already in place.
Zhang Liao looked at Bu Xugu, who was eager to fight, and immediately gave an order: "The general is very courageous. It's just right. The general attacks from both wings and attacks the enemy's flank. Be sure to disrupt the enemy's formation, and there must be no mistakes!"

"The last general obeys!" Bu Xugu excitedly accepted the general's order.

"Gao Lan listens to the order!" Zhang Liao continued to order: "After General Bu Xugu is dispatched, you immediately lead the [-] Modao Battalion to attack the enemy from the front. You must break through the enemy's defense from the front and enter the central army."

"No! The last general will take the order." Gao Lan also accepted the general order excitedly.

Originally, Gao Lan had been following Li Shimin's side, but later considering that the battle of Luoyang was mainly for defense, Modaoying was good at assault and was a sharp weapon for offense, and staying in Luoyang would not be able to play his value, so under Li Shimin's repeated consideration, he will It was secretly transferred to Youzhou to deal with Youzhou cavalry.

This is also one of Zhang Liao's trump cards.

"Boom, boom, boom..." The dense battle drums sounded again, stirring the hearts of the soldiers to boil, and then there was another roar of mountains and tsunamis, which exploded in front of the formation. Zhang Liao raised his sword and drew it upwards, roaring: "Tiger! Leopards attack!"

Immediately, hundreds of cavalry headed towards the central army, shouting: "The general has an order, the tiger and leopard army will attack!"

"The general has an order, Tiger and Leopard Army attack!"

"The general has an order, Tiger and Leopard Army attack!"

"Ho Ho Ho..." The [-] tiger and leopard cavalry were like two huge arrows fanning towards the enemy from the central army. Thousands of troops galloped like dragons, the earth trembled, and the sky and the earth changed color.

He is mighty and fearless, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger.

When Gongsun Zan saw that the enemy was the first to show his sword, he no longer sat still and waited for death.

"Dong dong dong..." Immediately, the drums for marching were sounded, and immediately the cavalry on both wings all attacked, heading towards the direction where the enemy came.

Thanks to the unique horse breeding conditions in Youzhou, and the nearby Xianbei, Wuhuan and other foreign races also raised a large number of horses, there are more than 4 horses in Gongsun Zan's army, and the cavalry is also very powerful.

Tian Kai led an army of more than 3 troops, and they also divided them into two groups to kill them. Soon tens of thousands of cavalrymen met on the battlefield and started a bloody fight.

The southern Xiongnu cavalry of Buxugu grew up on horseback since they were young. They are proficient in bows and horses.

During the attack, tens of thousands of Xiongnu soldiers fired several rounds of arrows in a row, and tens of thousands of Zhili arrows turned into a huge rain of arrows, hitting the roaring Youzhou army with a "swoosh...".
