Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 219: Difficult Battle
However, these people were experts in riding after all, and most of the horses they rode had been with them for many years. Although they could not be said to have a sympathetic relationship with each other, more than half of them had been pacified. Although many of the horses were still obviously a little scared, at least they stopped throwing the soldiers off.

But no matter what, Liu He's goal has been achieved, which is to weaken the enemy's morale and interrupt the cavalry's charge. Only by achieving these two points can he have a chance of winning.

"Kill him while he's sick! Charge forward and kill him!"

Inspired by Liu He and Hei Wang, the morale of the more than 30,000 Anmin troops was greatly boosted, and they rushed into the Xianbei army in a blink of an eye.

This scene made Kuitou very angry.

"These Han soldiers are simply... simply too much! The infantry took the initiative to attack the cavalry, it's simply... I... I'm so angry! Kill them all!"

Most of these Xianbei cavalrymen were battle-hardened and bloodthirsty, while the soldiers of the Anmin Army had either never been involved in such battles or, although they had seen them before in Yanmen, had not received strict training at the time. It was only in the past one or two months that they received rigorous training and improved logistics.

In addition, cavalry already had an advantage over infantry, so after the Xianbei soldiers calmed their horses and recovered, the original disadvantage was quickly reversed.

Seeing that many soldiers had no experience in dealing with cavalry and fell one after another at the hands of the enemy, Liu He was extremely anxious.

"Brothers, hold on! It's not easy to hurt the enemy from the front, so you can attack from the side. If you can't hurt anyone, you can stab the horse!"

Liu He shouted loudly while hacking and killing the Xianbei cavalry around him.

At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed out from the army behind him.

Although Liu He couldn't see the man's expression clearly, from the roar he made and the completely reckless fighting style, his face was definitely quite ferocious at this moment.

There were at least seven or eight wounds on his body, and he was bleeding profusely, but he seemed to feel no pain at all. In both hands, he held a large knife that was slightly smaller than Wang Han's, and chopped left and right, sometimes at people and sometimes at horses. In the blink of an eye, he had killed six or seven Xianbei cavalrymen.

Liu He couldn't help but shout, "Great! Who is this man? There is such a fierce general in our army!"

Guan Yu, who was not far away, looked over here and said, "Ah, it's Chu Xuan!"

As soon as the name was mentioned, Liu He remembered it immediately.

This is the sturdy man with a scar on his face who won the martial arts competition among the local garrison of Yanmen.

Liu He's impression of him, apart from being fierce in fighting, was that he was taciturn.

Gao Shun was the type who used few words when speaking, but this guy would rather not speak than not speak. He always looked like he wanted to keep strangers away, and with the scar on his face, he had almost no friends in the army.

"I didn't expect it. I really didn't expect it. After just over a month of training, his strength has increased from 82 to 84. Coupled with his current life-threatening and ferocious fighting style, I'm afraid there's something behind this guy."

Liu He was stunned for a moment, and several Xianbei cavalrymen around him rushed towards him.

"Brother be careful!"

"Don't kill Lord Liu!"

Cheng Liang and Wang Han arrived almost at the same time and quickly dealt with the enemy soldiers who were stabbing Liu He.

"Thanks to Third Brother and Da Meng, let's fight side by side!"

The two of them are now members of Liu He's personal guard, and fighting alongside him, they naturally cooperate seamlessly.

In addition to the one hundred guards, although the tigers captured for them were not yet adults and they could only practice riding horses for the time being, they still demonstrated extremely strong combat effectiveness.

Those war horses that had just been pacified, when they reached Liu He, were pounced on and clawed by the Black King. Even if they didn't die, they would fall into chaos again. Taking advantage of this time, Liu He, Cheng Liang and Da Meng harvested the lives of the enemy soldiers like cutting vegetables.

Not only did the three of them and the beast shine, but the 1,500 cavalrymen led by Guan Yu and the 100 golden hammer cavalrymen led by Zhu Ye also performed well.

Although these two cavalry units were not as good as the Xianbei soldiers in riding skills, they had higher morale, stronger equipment, and better coordination. Unlike the Xianbei, they did not fight purely brute force, so their overall combat effectiveness advantage when facing the Xianbei cavalry was still very obvious.

Guan Yu and Zhu Ye gradually formed a tacit understanding. The two armies supported each other and coordinated their attacks, with outstanding results.

Ye Xiang led a team of archers. Although each of them was equipped with close combat weapons, they were not good at it after all, so they followed the army from a distance, waiting for an opportunity to shoot and kill the enemy. From the system prompt, Liu He knew that Ye Xiang had shot and killed an enemy general.

After such a battle, plus the damage done to the cavalry led by Tuoli, the Xianbei army has now lost as many as six or seven thousand people.

However, the Anmin Army was ultimately composed mainly of infantry. Even though the Black King stopped the enemy cavalry's charge, and even though the Anmin Army had many advantages in armor, warfare, and command, it was still difficult for the infantry to fight against the cavalry.

The Anmin Army suffered greater losses than the Xianbei at this time. Those who died in battle, those who were seriously injured and had to withdraw from the battle and go to the rear, etc., totaled over ten thousand!

Liu He felt an inexplicable emotion.

"Since we started the war, we have never suffered such heavy casualties. The Xianbei cavalry is indeed worthy of its reputation. This is the first time that I have suffered more casualties than the enemy. If this continues, I am afraid that my army will be in danger."

Even Liu He himself had multiple scars on some parts of his body that were not protected by the golden armor, such as the back of his hands, wrists, cheeks, ankles, and even his neck. Although they were only superficial injuries, they showed how fierce the battle was.

While Liu He was fighting desperately, he was thinking about countermeasures in his mind.

"The Anmin Army is the foundation of my existence. If I lose too much, I'm afraid that all the villains will gang up on me, and I won't be able to resist. Why don't I fight and retreat, and slowly retreat to Yanmen Pass?"

As soon as this idea came up, Liu He rejected it immediately.

"It will take at least an hour and a half for the governor and the military advisor to escort the people to Yanmen Pass. Only an hour has passed. If I retreat now, the people will surely suffer."

"No, we must not retreat! A real man should not lose his integrity because of his fear of death! The worst that can happen is that we have to fight!"

Liu He suddenly shouted loudly, and the Black King also roared towards the sky.

"drink!"

"Roar……"

Taking advantage of the opportunity when several enemy horses around him were in chaos, Liu He exerted all his strength and in no time, he chopped down both the men and their horses and fell to the ground.

"Xianbei trash, who can stop me!"

Liu He fought like a tiger, attacking without defending, and soon cut a bloody path, broke through the area where the two armies were fighting, and rushed into the rear of the enemy's army of more than 30,000.

"Brother be careful!"

Cheng Liang and Dameng, along with the remaining sixty or seventy bodyguards, hurried over.

Kuitou, who was watching and directing the battle at the back, saw this scene and couldn't help but look even uglier.

"This man is so young that he can command so many soldiers in Yanmen. He is indeed extraordinary. But he dares to underestimate our Xianbei men. It is really abominable! We are the Xianbei people with countless brave generals. Is there no one who can stop him?"

The four generals guarding him also looked indignant.

"Chief, this man is so arrogant and boastful. I am willing to take his head and present it to you!"

"Good! Manghuo is worthy of being the best warrior under my command! Use your wolf-toothed spear to smash this man's head. When you return successfully, I will give you the title of Warrior of the Golden Horde!"

The big bearded general was overjoyed when he heard this.

"Don't worry, Chief. I'll be right back!"

After saying this, he got off a jet-black warhorse and rushed out like a meteor.

"You Han general, come and die!"
