Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

When enemies meet, they are particularly jealous of each other.

For Lu Bu, the Bai Li soldiers who severely damaged the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry were undoubtedly his biggest enemy.

But Lu Bu had to admit that the Bai Li soldiers were undoubtedly the natural enemies of the cavalry and he could only avoid their edge.

Even though Lu Bu wanted to tear the Bai Li soldiers apart with his own hands, he knew that now was not the time to fight hard.

"Zhang Xiu!"

Lu Bu shouted loudly.

"The end will be here."

Zhang Xiu responded from a distance.

Zhang Xiu, who once defected to Lu Bu, still commanded the Western Liang Cavalry left by his uncle Zhang Ji. However, in years of war, the Western Liang Cavalry was constantly losing troops and there was no way to replenish them.

This also led to Zhang Xiu, who was originally a cavalry general, being gradually appointed by Lu Bu to command the infantry.

"No matter what method you use, stop the Bai Li soldiers for me."

While ordering Zhang Xiu to lead the infantry to push forward through the gap that had just been opened, Lu Bu immediately led the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry to bypass the gap despite the continuous falling arrows.

Zhang Xiu's heart sank at Lu Bu's order, but he could only hurriedly lead his infantrymen to rush in through the gap with huge shields in hand.

As soon as the two sides engaged in battle, Zhang Xiu understood why the Bai Li soldiers were able to force Lu Bu to avoid their attack.

Those who carry shields in the army are mostly strong and powerful men.

But even so, facing the falling Mo Dao, the shield soldiers' arms still felt numb and weak, and even the Mo Dao left clear cut marks on the giant shields wherever it passed.

However, those soldiers hiding behind their shields stabbed out from the gaps with their spears, but they could not break through the heavy armor and cause effective damage. They could only make their bodies pause and then it would be difficult to follow up.

The two sides had not been in contact for a moment, but the pressure these Bai Li soldiers put on Zhang Xiu was no less than that of the Xianzhen Camp.

Even if the gap was opened, there were still Han soldiers shooting arrows from the arrow towers or arrow battlements on both sides, which made Zhang Xiu's situation quite difficult.

However, Zhang Xiu also understood that this was not the time to retreat, and his mission was not to defeat the Bai Li soldiers, but to contain them.

"When it comes to a life-and-death battle, there is no room for retreat!"

Zhang Xiu drew his sword and personally beheaded a soldier who retreated subconsciously. He ordered his personal guards to serve as the supervisor of the battle and organized archers to counterattack and suppress the arrow towers of the Han army, and then he personally rushed to the front line.

The Bai Li soldiers may be strong, but that is only true for ordinary soldiers. In terms of individual combat power, even if they are wearing heavy armor, they still cannot compare to the fierce generals.

For a spearman like Zhang Xiu, the inevitable tiny gaps in heavy armor could be easily hit in the chaos of battle.

In less than a moment, the golden spear with a tiger head had killed more than ten Bai Li soldiers.

Until, a cloud-piercing spear came from the side and blocked the tiger-head golden spear in Zhang Xiu's hand.

Unlike heavy spears like the Tiger-Head Golden Spear, the Cloud-Piercing Spear is extremely agile.

More importantly, this Cloud-Piercing Spear was extremely familiar to Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu paused and looked in the direction of the Piercing Cloud Spear. A familiar face appeared in front of him and whispered something.

"Senior brother?"

"Junior brother, I haven't seen you for many years." Zhang Ren also responded in a deep voice. Zhang Xiu's eyes trembled slightly, but he suppressed it and asked. "I heard that Senior Brother is serving Liu Zhang in Sichuan and Shu. How come you are in the Han army?"

"My lord Liu Zhang is also a Han minister. It is his duty to serve under the Prime Minister in response to the imperial edict."

After Zhang Ren gave a brief reply, the two brothers, who had originally been very close to each other, looked at each other in silence for a moment.

Immediately, Zhang Ren spoke earnestly.

"The Han thief Lu Bu is at the end of his rope. Why do you have to work for him? Why don't you surrender to the court? The King of Han is kind and the Prime Minister is generous. They will definitely accept you."

Zhang Xiu's attitude turned cold, and he shouted, "The king has been very kind to me, how can I betray him in battle? Please don't mention the words of persuading him to surrender again, brother."

Zhang Ren took a deep breath and said, "If that's the case, then we two brothers can only compete on the battlefield."

"Please be careful, brother."

Zhang Xiu shouted, and the tiger-head golden spear that was originally held together shook off the Cloud-Piercing Spear, and turned to stab Zhang Ren with great force.

However, unlike Zhang Xiu's bold and aggressive style, Zhang Ren's spear skills were more agile. He climbed up like a poisonous snake and stabbed Zhang Xiu's palm.

The two men were from the same teacher, but their knowledge and expertise were very different.

Zhang Xiu's spear skills are upright and domineering, while Zhang Ren's spear skills are flexible and changeable.

But just as Zhang Xiu was familiar with Zhang Ren's Piercing Cloud Spear, Zhang Ren knew his junior brother's spear skills very well.

Almost at the moment when Zhang Ren counterattacked, Zhang Xiu seemed to instinctively change his tactics and swung away the Piercing Cloud Spear...

But before Zhang Xiu could make the next move, Zhang Ren, as if he had predicted it, took advantage of the situation and stabbed Zhang Xiu's right shoulder.

This stab was extremely fast, and it happened at a time when Zhang Xiu had not yet regained his strength.

But Zhang Xiu seemed to have suffered this loss many times before. While swinging the Cloud Piercing Spear away, he leaned sideways and dodged the stab just in time.

With this rapid change of tactics, Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu both took a step back at the same time, their expressions twitching slightly.

These people are from the same school, their skills are similar, and they have sparred with each other countless times in the past. It is really too difficult to break his moves and defeat him.

However, unlike Zhang Xiu who was restrained and anxious, Zhang Ren secretly breathed a sigh of relief, cheered up, and once again waved his guns forward to cover Zhang Xiu, and started a fierce battle with Zhang Xiu again.

On the other side, after sacrificing nearly a thousand cavalrymen to take a detour, Lu Bu once again used his unparalleled martial power to break through a gap and led his troops into the Han army camp.

This time, with no Bai Li soldiers blocking the way, the shocked Lu Bu led the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry and rushed into the enemy lines.

In response to this, Li Ji, who stood firmly on the high platform, looked calm. He commanded the Tiger Guards to wave several specific flags again, and the entire Han army camp seemed to be moving slightly.

Li Ji didn’t understand formations in the past, but now he can be said to be proficient in them.

However, after Li Ji devoted himself to the study of formations and became famous in the Han Dynasty, he relied on the strategic initiative and basically acted as the attacking party, rarely on the defensive, so naturally he had no chance to set up any formations.

This time, the interior of the Han army camp had actually been arranged by Li Ji into a large formation.

Moreover, this formation is quite famous. For example, more than half of Li Ji's disciples have learned this formation called "Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation".

Of course, the same formation will have very different effects when arranged by different people.

If it is set up by someone who is familiar with the "Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation", the three gates of Sheng, Jing and Kai are all auspicious, and only the two gates of Du and Si can be considered as killing moves. (End of this chapter)
