Water Margin: Lu Bu sits on Mount Liang

"Take Sima Pan away quickly!" Yu Dajiang shouted loudly, and the infantrymen stepped forward and dragged Pan Zhong back.

Han Chang was about to kill the general and win merit but was rescued by someone. He was filled with hatred and retracted the iron spear slightly and stabbed again. Yu Dajiang grasped the long handle with both hands and swung the phoenix-wing gilded drill, knocking the spear off with a clang. The next second, the iron spear was suddenly raised up and whipped back towards his forehead.

boom--

The phoenix-wing gilded boring bar blocked in mid-air again. He held it with both arms and pushed it outwards. The armor plates on his body were shaking and his face turned red, but the iron spear was pressing forward forcefully.

"Is this all the thief can do?"

With a arrogant smile and sarcastic words, his arms shook violently, and the phoenix-wing gilded drill was immediately raised backwards. The iron spear in Han Chang's hand kept thrusting out, and Yu Dajiang had a hard time blocking it. The two weapons collided with several bangs in the fierce and rapid fight. Soon, the famous general of Daming Prefecture was covered with several wounds. The soldiers in black armor around him saw that their general was at a disadvantage, and ran over with knives and guns, but were rushed away by Han Qinghe and his men.

Seeing that he was not the enemy, Yu Dajiang swung his rifle with all his might to block the next shot. Not daring to delay any longer, he turned around and retreated to the rear.

In the back, Xi Sheng stood on a high place and watched the entire battlefield. He took a deep breath when he saw Guan Sheng and Pan Zhong were defeated so quickly. He looked at the Liao army with the Korean flag advancing and said quickly, "Tell Sun An to hold back the Liao army over there. Don't let them break through, otherwise the situation will be dangerous."

As he spoke, he looked at the cavalry battlefield, frowned slightly, and tapped the guardrails with his fingers quickly: "Order Tang Bin and Lin Chong to move forward, and Bian Xiang to protect their two wings and prepare to support Xiao Haili."

Wuwuwu——

The sound of horns sounded, and command flags were waved quickly at the command. Heavily armored figures moved forward, and the generals' flags fluttered in the wind.

In the fierce fighting battlefield, iron hooves cracked the ground, and a series of galloping figures quickly closed the distance. Swords and spears drew blood on people's bodies. Several cavalrymen in the front row roared, and at that moment when you could almost see the expressions on each other's faces, the cavalrymen running on the outside suddenly turned left and right, drew their bows and shot. Arrows continued to shoot from the hands of the knights who turned in an arc and pierced into the opponent's body. Pieces of blood splattered, and the figures fell down, but the galloping horses were still moving forward.

"Want to compete with us in horseback archery?"

Yelu Zongyun grinned, raised his sword and shouted: "Let these bandits see how we fight!"

The two thousand cavalrymen behind him shouted wildly, and gradually turned like a tide while galloping. Amid the roar, the knights who were drawing their bows let go, and a rain of arrows fell towards the cavalry over there.

"Switch your swords! Prepare for close combat!"

In different directions, voices shouted from the galloping cavalry, and they ran forward along the roaring ground. The figure running in the front raised two guns in his left and right hands. Behind him, the bowstrings hummed in unison. As a rain of arrows flew densely into the sky, a flash of sword light flashed in the sunlight and rushed straight towards the Liao cavalry who had just fired an arrow.

On the other side, Hu Yanzhuo, with steel whips hanging on both sides of his horse, led his cavalry and bravely charged towards the Liao cavalry galloping from the side.

"How brave!"

Yelu Zongdian, who was galloping from the other side, looked at the approaching cavalry, the wolf tail hanging from the iron helmet swaying backwards in the wind, and pointed the long-handled broadsword in his hand forward: "Crush them!"

There was confidence in the calm tone, arrows flew from the galloping cavalry, the grass on the once lonely ground trembled, the dust gradually floated, the rumbling sound spread and amplified in the air, the horses' hooves retracted and released, rolling over the grass, and the dust raised was like a surging torrent.

"Dodge the arrows! Prepare for close combat!"

Arrows flew across the sky and fell towards the charging figures of both sides, with the sound of whizzing through the air filling the ears. The charging cavalry were at a distance from each other, and the rain of arrows fell, most of which were nailed into the ground and obscured by the flying dust, some were nailed into the raised round shields, and some were unfortunately injured or fell off their horses.

"Prepare--"

The general's shout was not noticeable amid the roar of the horses' hooves. Hu Yanzhuo raised his family's long spear, looked at the approaching Liao cavalry, and shouted: "Charge!"

Behind him, more than 700 riders roared in unison: “Kill! Kill! Kill!”

Two streams of dust were approaching, and the figures running were forming a momentum. The muddy grass flew up with the horses' hooves. Hu Yanzhuo looked at the Liao knights who were becoming clearer and clearer, and his face gradually became bright: "Ancestors bless you." The murmured voice was drowned out by the sound of horses' hooves.

The next moment, the two armies collided.

Boom boom boom——

Like a huge wave rolling in, the cavalry charging at high speed could not avoid it and crashed into the oncoming enemy with a loud bang. Their flesh and blood bodies were hit hard, their bones were shattered and twisted, and the sharp broken bones pierced the skin with blood. The war horses fell to the ground with a scream, and their four hooves struggled, trembled, and kicked randomly.

Spears stabbed each other, and a series of metal-entering-flesh sounds were heard. Screams and screams rang out in the boiling crowd. At the moment when more cavalrymen met from behind, the tempered blades in their hands chopped out, and then blood sprayed and body parts flew into the sky.

"die--"

Hu Yanzhuo had thrown the spear in his hand behind him when he rushed into the enemy army, along with the dead bodies. He swung a pair of steel whips in his hands and hit several Liao cavalrymen on the heads. Spots of blood and unknown liquids splashed on the cloak fluttering behind him. His galloping figure roared and rushed towards the Liao army. The one who was hit by the steel whip fell off his horse and was trampled to death by the hooves of the horses galloping behind him, with a dark red mouth.

Two clouds of dust rose from the ground. Five thousand five hundred cavalrymen from both sides were divided into two sides and were charging and fighting, attracting almost everyone's attention.

The 4,000 Liao troops under the command of the Yelu Zongyun brothers were not used to such brutal close combat. They still preferred to ride and shoot from a distance. However, they were suddenly dragged into close combat by Lu Bu's cavalry and were somewhat timid.

Yelu Dezhong, who was far behind, frowned when he saw this. It was also because Lu Bu's army had captured more cities and strongholds along the way, and the intelligence they had obtained was that the enemy's infantry was good at hard fighting, but there were few examples of cavalry battles. He did not expect that the enemy was good at close combat. Such behavior was somewhat similar to that of the Jurchens in the north. The Liao army's knights had long been accustomed to long-range hunting, and would only move forward when the prey was tired.

The other side has fewer people, so they should...

No problem.

He felt a little nervous and hesitant.

In the middle of the battlefield, the two sons of the Yelu family had the same idea. With their men being more than twice as many as the enemy's, they shuttled through the battlefield with their trusted cavalrymen, carrying their swords. Their eyes swept across the cavalrymen of Lu Bu's army that were charging at them, thinking of killing the enemy generals here first. Finally, their eyes stopped on the general wielding double guns (double whips).

Then, he accelerated and rushed forward, with the sword raised.
