Chapter 307 The two armies face off
,,,,,,,,,,,,
"I'm willing to go"
A general holding a sword urged his horse to rush out from the team. This person was Jiao Chu, the lower general of Xu Huang. He was originally Yuan Shao's general. After the Guandu War, he surrendered to Cao's army and became Xu Huang's general. He used a sharp two-edged sword and ranked second among the generals of the Cao army.
However, Jiao Thu had a trick that was good at fighting meteor hammers, which always made the enemy general unable to defend. It was precisely because of this trick that he was eager to fight and seize the first prize.
Especially when he heard that Liu Jing was on the opposite side, if he could kill Liu Jing, he would make a great contribution, and he rushed to the battlefield impatiently.
Xu Huang praised his bravery and shouted loudly: "Play the drum to cheer."
The drums were like thunder, and the sound of killing was shocking the sky. Everyone was excited. The Han Dynasty's martial style was prevalent, and individuals were brave and brave. Therefore, the fight of generals alone became one of the ways for the two armies to fight, but it was not absolute. For example, sneak attacks, ambushings and other battles, there would be no fights by the generals alone. Most of the fights by generals were in conflict with each other.
Of course, single-handed fight by generals is not a key factor in determining the outcome, but it can affect morale and morale stability, and thus will also affect the final outcome.
Liu Jing immediately stood under the military flag and saw a general speeding out of the enemy's opponent, but it was not Xu Huang, which made him a little disappointed. Before Liu Jing could speak, a general stepped forward and asked for an order, "Prince, please let Bei Zhi fight."
This general has a leopard-eyed, halberd-bearded face, a pot-like face, a fierce appearance, and an extremely burly figure. He used a 70-pound mountain-opening axe.
The general was named Xing Daorong. He was originally a general under Liu. He was from Lingling. He was known as the number one general in Jingnan. He was appointed as Sima of his family and was seconded to Liu Pan to help train troops at the beginning of the year.
After Liu Pan rode alone to Nanjun, Xing Daorong did not return to Lingling, but stayed in Changsha and became a general of Huang Zhong. He surrendered to Liu Jing with Huang Zhong. He was transferred to Jiangxia not long ago, and this time he followed Liu Jing to fight.
It was Xing Daorong's first battle for the Jiangxia army. He was also eager to make contributions and was eager to go out. Liu Jing knew that he was very skilled in martial arts and even better than Liu Hu. He was a powerful general, so he nodded and "quasi-war"
Xing Daorong roared and urged the horse to rush out. He waved his axe and shouted: "I am Xing Daorong Ling, and I am the general name."
"Yuzhou Jiaotu is also true"
When the sound came, Jiao Tu slashed at Xing Daorong with a knife. Xing Daorong tried his best to fight. The two generals fought together, and the drums on both sides were like thunder, and the shouts of killing were shaking the sky.
The two sides fought for more than a dozen rounds, and Jiao Chu gradually lost strength. He made a flaw and fled when he drove the horse. Xing Daorong urged the horse to chase after him. He ran less than twenty steps. Jiao Chu suddenly shook his hand and a meteor hammer came silently.
Xing Daorong was shocked and instinctively pulled the reins. The war horse screamed loudly, and the front hooves were raised. The hammer was hitting the horse's head. Its powerful force made the war horse's skull shatter and fell to the side, crushing Xing Daorong under the horse.
Jiao Tu was very proud, turned his horse's head and raised his knife to slash. At this critical moment, an arrow shot like lightning. Jiao Tu couldn't dodge and hit his right shoulder with an arrow. He screamed, shook his body, and almost fell from the horse.
Xing Daorong seized this opportunity, and even ignored the battle axe and ran towards his camp. Liu Jing sneered and put away the bow and arrow. He had long seen that Jiao Tu still had enough strength. He would definitely have a fraud if he was defeated so easily. As expected, he was guessed.
The soldiers on both sides of the battle started to clamor at the same time, and they scolded each other for being shameless. Jiao Tu retreated with injuries and said angrily to Xu Huang: "I will never be tired of deceitful soldiers. I will win the plan, but the other party uses cold arrows, despicable, and I will apologize."
"You are innocent, go down to heal your wounds."
Xu Huang saw it very clearly that this arrow should have been shot by Liu Jing. He heard Yu Jin say that Liu Jing was very skilled in martial arts, which made him interested. At this time, he did not want to send a general to fight anymore, so he took off his axe and shouted: "Play the drum to cheer me up."
Cao's war drums were beaten again. Amid the earth-shaking war drums, Xu Huang urged his horse to come out. He ran to the formation and shouted: "I am Xu Gongming from Hanoi, please ask the Muslim Liuzhou to fight."
Li Jun was furious. Liu Jing was a prince of the side, how could he fight against Xu Huang? He picked up his gun and was about to rush out, but Liu Jing stopped him, "You are not Xu Huang's opponent, don't go to die, let me experience it."
He stretched out his hand and "Come on the halberd"
Two personal soldiers handed over the long spear. More than a dozen tooth generals on both sides were shocked and came forward to persuade him. However, Liu Jing shouted: "Will Lu Bu go into battle? If Sun Ce can go into battle, they are not afraid. Why don't I be afraid of it? Don't persuade him again?"
He grabbed the war horses, and the Lu horse rushed out like an arrow and rushed towards Xu Huang. He waved the Fang Tian Painted Spear and laughed: "War with Xu Gongming, Yanqing has been looking forward to it for a long time."
Xu Huang also laughed: "If I get the head of Liuzhou Mu, I, Xu Huang, can achieve great achievements in the world. Will the provincial governor fulfill my wishes? "
He urged his horse to move forward and slashed towards Liu Jing. A cold light flashed and a fierce wind blew towards him. No matter the power, speed and momentum of this axe were comparable to Xing Daorong, who was also axe.
Xu Huang's military power ranks fifth among the generals of the Cao army, second only to Xu Chu, Zhang Liao and two Xiahous. However, he was not only skilled in martial arts, but also had no weak strategy. Like Zhang Liao, he was a famous general with both martial arts.
Liu Jing has also been famous for a long time. Being able to fight Xu Huang is also a deep expectation in his heart. Just like a person who has practiced peerless martial arts, he always hopes to find an opponent to compete and verify his martial arts.
Especially after he received guidance from Zhao Yun's letter, many of his confusions in martial arts practice were wiped out, making his martial arts go further. At this time, he was more eager to fight with a master like Xu Huang. Although this was a key battle for Longzhong, Liu Jing would inevitably have some selfishness.
He felt the power of Xu Huang's axe, the unrivaled power and the stagnant momentum, which were incomparable to ordinary generals. He was very passionate in his heart and shouted, "Good come."
He waved his halberd and fought, and when a harsh tremor sound was heard, two thousand pounds of force collided, and the fire burst out. The huge rebound force made both of the war horses under their crotch scream, and at the same time, they took more than ten steps back.
Liu Jing was shocked and his arms were numb, and his chest was churning, and he felt uncomfortable, and he couldn't say a word. Xu Huang was also dizzy, his tiger's mouth was shaken open, and blood marks were faintly seen, and he could hardly hold the handle of the axe.
Xu Huang was extremely shocked. No wonder Yu Jin was no longer Liu Jing's opponent. Liu Jing's martial arts were evenly matched with him. Moreover, he was young and energetic, and his endurance was longer than that of himself. If he continued to fight for a long time, he might suffer a loss.
But Liu Jing no longer allowed him to think about it anymore, and he shouted again, "Xu Gongming, eat my halberd again." He saw the shadow of the halberd slashing towards him. Xu Huang was shocked. This was somewhat similar to Zhang Xiu's spear technique. He had no time to think about it carefully, avoid the weak and the real, and the big axe went to fight. The two of them came with the axe and the halberds, and the war horses were spinning around, fighting fiercely.
The battle was so dark that it was like a battle between gods. The soldiers on both sides were drunk and shouting hoarsely. The two fought for more than fifty rounds. After all, Xu Huang was already middle-aged, his physical strength gradually became weak, and his speed began to slow down.
However, Liu Jing became more and more braver as he fought. He practiced hard at the bottom of the river for many years, making endurance his greatest advantage, especially after forty rounds, his moves and strength would be fully utilized, and Gan Ning was defeated by his endurance.
Xu Huang's momentum was no longer there, and he was in a difficult position. The defeat gradually appeared. After five or six rounds, Xu Huang was obviously out of reach, and was surrounded by danger. He was almost cut off his left arm by Liu Jing's halberd.
Xu Huang was secretly frightened and dared not fight any more. When the two horses were intertwined, he roared hard and the axe slashed away. This was a plan to surround Wei to save Zhao. He felt that Liu Jing's halberd was slapped directly on the back. If it was hit firmly, he would be seriously injured. However, if Liu Jing was hit by his battle axe, he would bet that Liu Jing would definitely return to defense.
Liu Jing used the move to be the hammer in the Danfeng Chaoyang spear. He used the halberd as a spear and patted Xu Huang's back directly. If he hit, Xu Huang's spine would inevitably be broken. But at this time, Liu Jing also felt that Xu Huang's big axe was spinning towards his waist. If he hit, he would definitely die. One was injured and the other died. Liu Jing weighed the pros and cons in an instant.
His long halberd passed through the air, accurately holding Xu Huang's axe nerd, and stroking it outward. Xu Huang was waiting for this one. With the force of this one, he clamped his war horse with his legs. The war horse ran for more than ten steps, but did not stop and ran directly towards the formation.
Liu Jing did not chase after him and asked loudly: "Gongming rests for a while, would he want to fight again?"
Xu Huang did not answer his words, rushed to the front of the formation and shouted: "The entire army immediately retreated to the camp."
Xu Huang knew better than anyone else that the general was defeated and his morale was damaged. More importantly, his troops were far inferior to the other side. If he was fighting fiercely, his thousands of troops would be wiped out. If he was defeated in time, he would be able to save at least 70% of his troops.
A harsh bell sounded immediately in the Cao army formation. Dangdangdang followed the retreating bell, and the Qian Cao army immediately ran towards Longzhong Town like a retreat. The defeat of the main general made each of them feel extremely panicked, and they just wished they had two more legs.
When Liu Jing saw Cao's army defeated and fled, he pointed his halberd forward. This was the order for the attack. The sound of the war drums of the Jiangxia army's attack suddenly sounded shockingly.
Liu Jing took the lead, waved his halberd and chased him quickly. Behind him, ten thousand Jiangxia soldiers shouted, waved their swords and spears, and chased them bravely. After a moment, they crossed the river and rushed into Longzhong Town. The slow-running Cao army was either killed by the Jiangxia army, or surrendered one after another.
The Cao army camp was located about two steps to the west of the official road in the middle of Longzhong Town. Zhu Ling used the night to prepare for the war and razed all the surrounding houses to the ground. A forest was cut down, leaving the attacking enemy without any support. He dug a trench about a meter wide along the camp and buried the trench thorns.
When Xu Huang's army retreated, Zhu Ling had already deployed a thousand crossbowmen outside the camp in advance. He shouted to Xu Huang: "Gongming, withdraw back to the camp quickly, I'll cover it."
