Three Kingdoms: Wolong's brother-in-law, tricking Liu Bei into seizing Jingzhou

Guan Ping is very confident.

His confidence comes from his confidence in the fighting will of the Han army soldiers.

Today, the Han army is more powerful than the Qin army and is the most elite army in the world.

What's more, the 7,000 vanguard troops under his command were all veteran soldiers trained by Guan Yu when he was in Jingzhou.

With elite troops who have fought in many battles at my disposal, what should I fear even if I am in an unfavorable situation or even if the enemy outnumbers me?

really.

The seven thousand Han soldiers quickly calmed down, regained their fighting spirit, quickly formed a battle formation, and were determined to fight to the death.

Juyan City was too close to the north bank. The Han army had just hastily formed a battle array when the 10,000 Qin troops led by Cao Zhang arrived like a tide.

The two armies collided with each other with a loud bang.

Streams of blood rose into the air, dyeing the sky above the northern bank of Ruoshui red.

The sound of war horses colliding, weapons clashing, and soldiers screaming and shouting suddenly rang in my ears, drowning out all other sounds.

The Han army's formation was broken in an instant, and the two armies fell into a melee.

Within the Qin army.

Cao Zhang, holding a long sword in his hand, rushed forward like a killing god.

He raised his sword and swung it down. The Han soldiers who were blocking his way were chopped down to the ground like grass.

Although the Han army was powerful, the 7,000 soldiers who crossed the river were all infantry.

After obtaining the war horses from the vassal state of Guyan, Cao Zhang rebuilt a cavalry of more than a thousand people.

now.

It was with the help of these 1,000 cavalrymen, like an indestructible blade, that he tore the Han army's formation in two.

Under the charge of the cavalry, even though the Han army had amazing fighting power and will, they gradually began to be unable to resist.

South bank of Ruoshui.

While the fighting was going on on the north bank, the main Han army led by Zhang Fei and Xiao Fang had just stopped.

Looking back, the flood that overflowed the embankment only brushed past their heels, which was quite thrilling.

Fortunately, at the last moment, more than 30,000 main forces escaped the disaster. Except for more than a thousand people who were washed away, most of them survived.

"Prime Minister, I'm glad you're here, otherwise I would have fallen into Cao Zhang's trap again and would have been in big trouble."

Zhang Fei stroked his chest and sighed with a lingering fear on his face.

Xiao Fang smiled coldly and looked towards Juyan City:

"Cao Zhang is just a common man, he doesn't have the ability to plagiarize my strategy."

"I think this plan was probably the work of Yang Fu."

Zhang Fei immediately became furious and cursed:
"Yang Fu, that bastard, I will tear him into pieces with my own hands to vent my hatred!"

Xiao Fang put away his sneer and pointed his feather fan towards the north bank:
"Taking over Juyan City is a matter for another time. Our first priority now is to rescue the 7,000 soldiers who are cut off on the north bank."

Zhang Fei's attention was then drawn from Juyan City to the north bank.

Looking across the Ruoshui River, one could see 10,000 Qin troops charging out and engaging in a battle with Guan Ping's 7,000 troops.

In the battle group, thousands of Qin cavalry galloped back and forth, crushing the Han army at will.

Guan Ping's troops soon fell into an unfavorable situation and could only struggle to hold on.

"Oh no! Cao Zhang has actually built a cavalry unit. Tan Zhi is only an infantry. How can he resist?"

"If something goes wrong, how can I explain to my second brother?"

Zhang Fei suddenly became nervous, and his anger turned into worry.

Originally, Guan Ping followed Guan Yu to guard Luoyang. This time, Guan Yu made a special arrangement for Guan Ping to follow him to make meritorious deeds.

His nephew did not get any credit for the achievement, but instead lost his life. How could he have the face to go back and see Guan Yu?

"The flood has not receded yet, and we cannot cross the river to save our nephew. What should we do?"

"Prime Minister, you have to make a decision."

Zhang Fei was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead, and he had no choice but to ask Xiao Fang for advice.

Xiao Fang looked at the battlefield on the north bank, then at the rolling flood in front of him, his brows furrowed, and he was lost in thought.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he had a plan in mind. "General Yide, although we can't cross the river, don't forget that our biggest advantage is that we have 10,000 cavalrymen."

Xiao Fang pointed his feather fan upstream and sneered:
"I guess the sand dam built by the Qin army is not far upstream. The water here is surging, but the water upstream must be calm."

"Yide, you can send 5,000 light cavalry to rush upstream to cross the river, and then fight all the way back. You will definitely catch Cao Zhang off guard."

Xiao Fang proposed a plan to break the impasse.

Zhang Fei was overjoyed and shouted:
"Deng Shizai, listen to my orders. I will order you to lead 5,000 light cavalry to cross the river upstream immediately and rush to the north bank to rescue Guan Tanzhi's vanguard troops!"

Deng Ai gladly accepted the order and immediately led 5,000 light cavalry and rushed upstream of the Ruoshui River.

Zhang Fei breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the battlefield on the north bank, and murmured:

"My dear nephew, you must hold on for me. You must wait until Deng Shizai's cavalry arrives."

...

Upstream direction.

Deng Ai led his troops at a rapid gallop and soon arrived at Shaba.

As Xiao Fang had expected, the water level upstream of the dug sand dam had dropped to a level that covered the horses' bellies, enough for the cavalry to cross the river.

After Deng Ai took advantage of the situation to defeat Jiang Xu's thousand men, he immediately urged five thousand light cavalry to wade across the river.

The Ruoshui River was not wide to begin with, and the water level in the upper reaches was weak, so the five thousand light cavalry successfully crossed the river in less than a quarter of an hour.

At Deng Ai's command, the cavalry galloped along the north bank towards the direction of Juyan City.

And this moment.

South of Juyan City, on the north bank of Ruoshui River.

The fighting between the two armies continued.

The Qin army's offensive became increasingly fierce. Nearly a thousand of the 7,000 Han soldiers were killed or wounded, and they were forced to retreat step by step until they reached the bank of the Ruoshui River.

If you retreat further, there will be a raging torrent.

Although the water level has dropped slightly now, it is still above the neck, and it is obviously impossible to wade back to the south bank.

Guan Ping and his soldiers could only hold on hard at this moment.

In the blood mist, Guan Ping brandished a long sword, continuously killing the Qin soldiers who were rushing forward, and half of his battle robe was stained with blood.

He had killed countless Qin soldiers with his sword, and gradually he was running out of strength.

"Han dog, how dare you act so arrogantly when the king is here!"

A thunderous roar was heard.

A Qin general in front, with a long sword in his hand, rushed towards Guan Ping on a bloody path like a killing god.

"Cao Zhang?"

Guan Ping recognized the general.

It was the commander of these 10,000 Qin troops, the remnant of Cao Cao left in Liang Province, and Cao Zhang, the King of Rencheng of the pseudo-Qin.

"Remnant of the Cao family, today I, Guan Ping, will chop off your dog head!"

Guan Ping was not afraid at all, but instead was aroused with ambition and fighting spirit.

He let out a fierce roar, spurred his horse, drew his sword, and rushed forward to fight.

The two riders rushed towards each other.

The two swords, each carrying the power of thunder and lightning, slashed towards each other.

"throat!"

There was a loud bang as the sky collapsed.

A gust of air expanded in all directions, knocking all the soldiers around to the ground.

The two swords faced each other in mid-air, and the two men's bodies shook slightly.

After one move, it's hard to tell who is better!

"So you are Guan Yu's son, very good, very good!"

When Cao Zhang learned Guan Ping's name, he became even more excited and ferocious.

He exerted his strength to push Guan Ping's long sword away, and then he attacked with his sword style like a storm. (End of this chapter)
