The Three Kingdoms Fight for the Deer

Chapter 264 Decisive battle in the city
"Soldiers of the three armies listen to the order. Those who kill Guan Yu and Zhang Fei will be promoted to two ranks in a row and rewarded with ten thousand gold. Let me charge!" Li Yuan roared up to the sky, and personally led the soldiers and horses into the charge.

"Charge! Charge! Charge!" Seeing Li Yuan charge in person, all the soldiers cheered up, and countless people wanted to kill Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, because the rewards were so attractive that even generals such as Tai Shici resisted Can't stand this kind of temptation.

"Woo———" The horn of the charge sounded, and the drums to boost morale also sounded at the same time. Tens of thousands of troops rushed to kill Guan Yu's army with an astonishing momentum.

However, the streets in the city are narrow and there are houses everywhere, so Li Yuanjun's charge was greatly affected. Jiangxia is not considered a big city, so the roads are not spacious. It is a very smart choice for Guan Yu to fight Li Yuan in the city because he cannot take advantage of his speed.

Li Yuan also noticed the surrounding situation. The total strength of the two sides was nearly [-], and they all poured into the city. It was very crowded. Guan Yushou occupied a favorable position at the entrance of the street. As long as they arranged a tight defense at the entrance of the street, it would be difficult for Li Yuanjun to break through the defense. .

Seeing Li Yuan's army begin to charge, Guan Yu immediately ordered: "Change the formation, the pikemen are in front, and the sword and shield hands are behind. Get ready to meet the enemy!"

Although Guan Yu had given the order, the Jingzhou army usually lacked training and was not familiar with formations and positions at all, so the soldiers moved very slowly when changing formations, and there was even a little confusion.

Guan Yu frowned, thinking that the soldiers trained by himself would never be like this, but there was nothing he could do now, after all, training an elite army would take countless effort and time, no matter how powerful he was, he would never be able to immediately Let the Jingzhou Army become an elite division.

When Li Yuan saw Guan Yu's change of formation, he knew that Guan Yu wanted a long spear formation to deal with their charge. The spearmen were in front and the sword and shield hands were behind. Block the offensive of the enemy's charge.

Guan Yu is worthy of being a veteran on the battlefield. He has a very clear view of the situation on the battlefield, and his timing is very precise. However, the only pity is that the tactical quality of the Jingzhou Army is too poor. The soldiers cannot change their formation immediately. No matter how powerful Guan Yu is It is also impossible to improve the execution ability of soldiers in a short period of time.

"It's too late for the enemy to change formation, let's continue to charge!" Li Yuan rushed into the enemy's formation immediately, and the cloud of smoke for thousands of miles swept past like a black whirlwind, and no one could stop it.

"Whoever stands in my way will die!" Li Yuan swept across with his tiger-headed golden spear, and killed more than a dozen soldiers standing in front of him. He caught up because his horse ran too fast.

"Kill!" The two sides fought hand to hand, but Li Yuan's army was superior in combat effectiveness. The Jingzhou army was beaten back and forth in the first battle, and they could not stop them under Li Yuan's leading attack.

At this moment, Li Yuan is like an arrow, constantly going deep into the enemy army. He kills as he advances, and the tiger-headed golden spear in his hand keeps coming in and out like black lightning. Each attack can take the lives of several enemy soldiers. , All the enemy soldiers standing beside him were spared, and they all became the ghosts of his gun.

Seeing Li Yuan's bravery, the soldiers following him also became more active. Everyone closely followed Li Yuan's footsteps and kept beheading the enemy soldiers. Their targets were not others, but Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Killing these two official titles will lead to a two-level promotion and a reward of ten thousand taels. No one would not want such an attractive reward.

The Jingzhou army was beaten back steadily, losing more than 3000 people in just a short while, but Guan Yu still did not go into battle in person, but commanded the battle in the Chinese army. Although he also wanted to fight Li Yuan, he is not a hero now At that time, the most important thing was to command the army to resist Li Yuan's attack.

Guan Yu kept his eyes on the situation on the battlefield. Although he expected that there would be a gap between the Jingzhou army and Li Yuan's army, he did not expect the gap to be so large. The combat power was not at the same level. This made him both envious and worried.

After a while, Guan Yu saw the timing and suddenly ordered: "Ambush archers shoot!"

The archers who had been ambushing on the roof before all jumped out, and took out their bows and arrows to shoot at the enemy below. In an instant, thousands of arrows shot down like rain, and Li Yuanjun immediately fell hundreds of people. The young soldiers were all shot with bows and arrows, and the scene was chaotic
There were not many archers, only 3000, but the damage caused by these [-] archers was very large. They shot at the ground in a condescending manner and took advantage of the position. Li Yuanjun's soldiers were caught off guard because they were not prepared. And the population is very dense, and archers can easily hit without aiming.

Li Yuan waved his tiger-headed Zhan golden gun to block the arrows, and while dealing with the arrows, he ordered: "Don't panic, the enemy army only has three thousand archers, and the swords and shields are covered with shields, and help other soldiers resist the bows and arrows. The soldiers who covered me entered the house to avoid the arrows, and the orderly sent the soldiers to inform Xu Zhu, asking him to deal with the archers as quickly as possible."

"It's the lord!" The messenger immediately went to the rear army to find Xu Zhu after receiving the order.

The Tiger Guard Battalion led by Xu Zhu has always been the elite of the army, responsible for guarding Li Yuan's safety. Li Yuan has never sent them into battle easily, but they must be used now, because the archers ambushed on the houses, causing serious damage to the soldiers. The great threat must be resolved as soon as possible. However, the enemy's archers are standing on the houses, and they can't reach them. Only the Tiger Guards have this ability.

Not long ago, Li Yuan asked a blacksmith to help Huweiying make climbing tools, which can allow people to climb to high places easily. After many times of practice, Huweiying finally mastered this skill proficiently. Can come in handy.

After Xu Zhu received the order, he immediately led the Tiger Guards battalion, found the archer's position, and immediately used climbing tools to climb up the house.

Although Xu Zhu had a strong figure, he was very nimble and agile. He pulled the rope and kicked twice before climbing onto the roof, which was much faster than ordinary Tiger Guard soldiers.

When the archer saw Xu Zhu coming up, he immediately shot at him. Xu Zhu had quick eyes and quick hands, and rolled to avoid the attack. Because the distance was very short, he came to the archer after only two steps. He waved the big knife in his hand, After hacking and killing, dozens of archers on the roof were easily killed by him. Under his leadership, all the archers arranged by Guan Yu were quickly cleared.

Guan Yu frowned. Although he didn't expect the archers to turn the situation around, he could at least cause some casualties to Li Yuanjun. He didn't expect that the archers who had ambushed beforehand would be eliminated without any effort. He didn't expect it.
