"Zheng Zhilong of the Fubo Army occupied Jeju Island, obtained seven or eighty thousand horses, and captured the general of the Korean Navy, Yi Sun-sin."

When Chutian was besieging Yecheng, he received a battle report from the Fubo Army.

This time, the surprise attack on Jeju Island, the Fubo Army was completely active, and the Koryo Kingdom was busy dealing with the Liaodong Army and was unprepared. It is not surprising that Zheng Zhilong achieved this.

The biggest gain may not be 70,000 or 80,000 horses, but the capture of Yi Sun-sin.

Mingguan has a tendency to destroy the Goryeo Kingdom. If Yi Sunsin falls into the hands of Mingguan, it will bring a lot of trouble to the Fubo Army.

The Fubo Legion does need to recruit more talents. Even in the Kingdom of Korea, there are still a few talents that can be seen.

"Let Zheng Zhilong raise horses locally and engage in trade in Qingxu, Goryeo, and Dongying. For Yi Sun-sin, try to be gentle."

Chu Tian ordered to go down.

On the other side of Goryeo, Chutian can drink some soup is not bad, his focus is on the operation of Hebei.

The North China Plain is more fertile than Korea.

"Order Cheng Yu to forcefully recruit 100,000 villagers in Yanzhou and surround Yecheng."

On the periphery of Ye City, Chutian's army was building earth mountains, and earth mountains rose from the ground. At the same time, they dug tunnels and drove directly under Ye City to prepare for a strong attack.

The artisans accompanying the army made catapults, chariots, rams, ballistas, ladders and other siege equipment.

Yecheng's food and grass can still be eaten for eight or nine months. If it was just a siege, Zhao Long's main force must have broken through Taiyuan.

Chutian plans to launch a fierce attack on Yecheng to see if it can be captured in a short time.

During this period, Liu Bei's military advisor, Wang Meng, constantly dispatched cavalry to interfere with Chutian's army, and once destroyed a mountain.

Liu Bei's army was stationed between Yecheng and Handan, and the supply line was very short, so there was basically no need to worry about food and grass problems.

If Chutian wanted to attack Liu Bei, he had to leave part of his troops to surround Yecheng, and the supply line was even longer.

Wang Meng knew that Chutian had crossed the Yellow River from the north and came from a long distance, and the load of food and grass was extremely heavy, so he adopted the attack tactics of a small cavalry force, which made Chutian overwhelmed and unable to concentrate on attacking the city.

When the Yecheng defenders learned that Liu Bei's reinforcements were in the north, their morale soared, and there was no tendency for them to fall.

Liu Bei's army did not fight Chutian directly, but brought more trouble to Chutian. Liu Bei's army was already in the early stages of guerrilla warfare.

Xun You saw that Chu Tian was frowning for several days, so he proposed: "You can leave an army to besiege Yecheng, and the rest of the army will bypass Yecheng, cross Zhangshui at night, and quickly defeat Liu Bei. Liu Bei is backed by Fushui. It is difficult to escape, and it will be hit hard.”

"It makes sense."

Xun You's words strengthened Chu Tian's determination to defeat Liu Bei head-on.

"Miss Xia and the first servant army besieged Yecheng. The rest of the people waited to recharge their batteries, crossed Zhangshui overnight, and defeated Liu Bei's army in the early morning. After the victory, reward the three armies!"

Chutian knew that if Liu Bei was not destroyed as soon as possible, then the capture of Ye City would be a long way off.

Out of trust in Xia Liang, Chu Tian entrusted her and Joan of Arc with the task of sieging the city, and left the Four Tigers of the Northern Army behind, ordering them to protect Xia girl no matter what.

As for the others, follow Chutian's actions.

At night, more than 100,000 troops gathered in secret and marched north.

Among them, the White-robed Legion and the Divine Speed ​​Legion, all of which are light cavalry, clear the way ahead and build a pontoon bridge.

In the north, in Liu Bei's army, strategist Wang Meng is also making arrangements.

"According to the scouts, Chu Zimou used a boat to transport a large amount of grain and grass to Yecheng via Baigou. If this batch of grain and grass can be burned, Chu Zimou will definitely retreat."

"Chu Zimou's war eagle can only play a role in the daytime, but at night, it will no longer have any advantage. Ashnasher,

You lead a light cavalry and attack its fodder. If there is any disadvantage, retreat immediately, and do not fight greedily. "

"The rest of the soldiers and horses headed south across the Zhangshui River and attacked Chu Zimou's camp in the early morning, so as to gain an opportunity for Ashina Sheer to burn food and grass in the chaos."

Wang Meng deployed one by one.

Ashina Sheer was good at rushing and attacking, and its cavalry speed was second only to Xiahou Yuan, so Wang Meng sent him to attack the forage. The main force of Liu Bei's army was just a feint.

After Liu Bei's army was recharged, he began to pull out his camp and march to the south.

Whether Chutian or Liu Bei's army wanted to kill each other, the two armies coincided and marched on each other on the same day.

Ashina Sheer went south through the bend of Zhangshui, and Liu Bei's main force attacked from the front.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were once again the vanguards, carrying the Qinglong Yanyue Sword and Zhangba Snake Spear and leading the cavalry south. This time they not only brought light cavalry, but also heavy cavalry such as Youzhou Tuqi.

Although they were somewhat dissatisfied with Wang Meng, Wang Meng did cause a lot of trouble to Chu Tian and was always active.

When Guan Yu and Zhang Fei approached Zhangshui, there was a sudden commotion in front of them.

Zhang Fei's eyes widened, something happened before he crossed Zhangshui?

The cavalry at the forefront rushed to report: "Two generals, the vanguard is fighting the enemy!"

Guan Yu was the first to react: "No, the thief army must cross the river to attack us, which coincides with us."

Zhang Fei scratched his head: "We led the cavalry to attack and drove them down the Zhangshui River, and they all drowned! Drive!"

After Zhang Fei said that, he directly led the cavalry to attack!

Guan Yu pondered for a moment, he would not necessarily lose in a night encounter, so he carried the Qinglong Yanyue Sword and joined Zhang Fei to face the Chutian army heading north.

Chu Tian led the Guard Corps of the Fifth School of the Northern Army, Hu Ben Army (Tai Shi Ci), Xuan Jia Army (Yu Chi Gong), Jian Yan Army (Liang Hongyu), Scout Army (Hua Mulan) and other guards in the rear, when he heard Zhangshui shouting to kill The voices came from all over, firstly stunned, then helpless.

He and Wang Meng had almost the same plan, and now the surprise attack on both sides has turned into an encounter.

"The Yulin Legion and the Tiger and Leopard Legion cross the river from the left and right to attack. The offensive legion crosses the river frontally to support the White Robe Legion and the Divine Speed ​​Legion. The Invincible Legion serves as a reserve."

Chutian issued an order quickly, and the commanders of each army immediately began to act after receiving the order.

"Cross the river, cross the river!"

Cao Cao stood by the pontoon himself and urged Tiger and Leopard to cross the river from the pontoon on the right.

Seeing that his army commander was working so hard, Hubaoqi rushed to the other side.

The Tiger and Leopard Corps had five thousand tiger and leopard cavalry, as well as a group of low-level light cavalry.

The two armies were caught in an uncontrollable melee, which was beyond the expectations of both sides.

The battle in Zhangshui could be heard even by the defenders of Yecheng.

Xia Tianliang yawned and said to Li Xiuning: "You lead the Women's Army to strengthen the protection of food and grass, and ask Joan of Arc to divide an army for you. Her lieutenant, Jill, can go with you to protect the food. You ambush. It's enough to be on both sides, and if there is an enemy coming, hit them."

"Yes!"

Li Xiuning led several thousand Women's Army, and there was Jill, the deputy general of the Holy Maiden Army, leading 20,000 servants, one on the left and one on the left, to protect the food and grass that were vital to the Chutian army.

Joan of Arc is monitoring the Yecheng defenders. The number of her servant legionaries outnumbered the defenders, who did not dare to fight at all.

After the deployment, although there were shouts of killing not far away, Xia Xian Liang fell asleep peacefully wrapped in the quilt, and muttered to himself in his sleep: "Chu Tian, ​​I want to drain you..."

...

"you again!"

Zhang Fei drew out his spear, and a white-robed cavalryman fell from the horse.

With the light of the fire, he saw Xue Rengui who came straight to him.

This is the third time Zhang Fei has played against Xue Rengui.

"I let you escape twice before, again and again, not again!"

Xue Rengui's Fang Tianhua halberd fell on the head and was blocked by Zhang Fei!

Xue Rengui placed both hands on Fang Tianhua's halberd, and the snake spear sank. Zhang Fei was shocked, but he said, "If you can, catch your grandfather Zhang!"

However, Zhang Fei caught a glimpse of Zhao Yun coming in full force again, and he was immediately discouraged. He couldn't stop the two fierce generals.

The Divine Speed ​​Army followed the White Pao Army, and Chen Qingzhi, Xiahou Yuan and Xu Rong were responsible for cleaning up the cavalry brought by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

The white robe army cavalry disappeared at night and slashed the Youzhou cavalry.

Among the Youzhou cavalry, the Youzhou cavalry led by Guan Yu, as a heavy cavalry, caused huge casualties to the light cavalry of the Divine Speed ​​Army.

Guan Yu temporarily commanded Youzhou cavalry, light cavalry of pigs, and heavy cavalry covered with large armors comparable to iron plows, and corpses were everywhere!

Any light cavalry standing in front of Youzhou's cavalry will be defeated!

Xiahou Yuan shot an arrow, hit the front door of a Youzhou cavalry, and shot him to death.

"Avoid this heavy cavalry and shoot it with a bow and crossbow!"

Facing Guan Yu's heavy cavalry, the large number of light cavalry could only avoid it, and then used cavalry to take away a group of Youzhou cavalry.

Guan Yu took the knife and went straight to Xiahou Yuan!

When Xiahou Yuan saw Guan Yu's aggressive approach, he fired three arrows at him, and then retreated into the army, failing to show his courage.

Guan Yu slashed and flew three arrows, and when the Qinglong Yanyue Sabre collided with the arrows, the sound was crisp and a soft cry came out.

"You don't dare to fight, why?!"

Guan Yu raised his sword and killed a light cavalry soldier, greatly contempt for Xiahou Yuan's avoidance of the battle.

Xiahou Yuan felt bitter in his heart. He was really not Guan Yu's opponent in a single fight, and Guan Yu's explosive power was extremely strong. If he underestimated the enemy, he might be killed by him.

However, Guan Yu's stamina may not be comparable to Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun, and he is easily injured. Chu Tian's order to Xiahou Yuan is to use cold arrows to consume Guan Yu.

"Zilong, you go to fight against Guan Yu, and leave the ring-eyed thief to me to deal with!"

Xue Rengui saw that Guan Yu was unstoppable, so he asked Zhao Yun to deal with Guan Yu and personally fight Zhang Fei.

"it is good!"

Zhao Yun held the gentian and bright silver spear and flew away, coming and going freely among the ten thousand troops.

The bright silver spear went out to sea like a dragon, picking down a Youzhou cavalry!

Several spears stabbed at Zhao Yun at the same time, Zhao Yun clamped these spears in one hand, and with all his strength, he even tore off several high-level heavy cavalry!

"Changshan Zhao Zilong is here! Where is Guan Yu?!"

In order to rescue Xiahou Yuan, Zhao Yun took the initiative to provoke Guan Yu.

Guan Yu was successfully provoked by Zhao Yun, and he dragged his knife to kill Zhao Yun!

The war between the five tiger generals of Shu Han broke out. The Qinglong Yanyue knife slashed the gentian and bright silver spear, and the two fierce generals who reached the peak of their force were often confronted in hundreds of rounds!

Xiahou Yuan, who had fled into the army, reappeared. He saw Guan Yu fighting with Zhao Yun, and he thought of Chu Tian's advice to him: an archer should look like an archer, and if he can shoot cold arrows, he should not fight in melee, unless Xue Rengui or Lu Bu are there. Such combat power.

Xiahou Yuan took out a king-quality armor-piercing arrow from the quiver.

"According to the lord, Guan Yu is easily shot by an arrow."

Xiahou Yuan put this armor-piercing arrow, which might cost only dozens of taels of silver, on the compound bow, secretly aiming at Guan Yu, the bow body of the compound bow was shaking violently...

Liu Bei was in the rear when he heard the screams of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's vanguard battling with the enemy.

"At this point in the battle, only the dead can win. The two generals Wu Han and Tian Yu are in front of the two generals Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and the two generals Hu Luguang and Gao Su are on the left and right flanks to protect them from being attacked. The enemy is surrounded. My lord and I will lead the army to support."

Wang Meng quickly deployed, and all the troops and horses immediately went to support him.

The Wuhan Corps supported Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, the Leyi Corps supported Xue Rengui and Zhao Yun, and the two infantry corps joined the melee.

On the left wing, Hu Luguang met Wei Qing's Yulin Army, while on the right wing, King Lanling met Cao Cao's Tiger and Leopard Army.

The scale of the melee was getting bigger and bigger, and Chutian's guards also crossed the river to join the battle...

On the orders of Wang Meng, the Turkic prince Ashnasheer bypassed the main battlefield and took advantage of the night to raid the place where the Chutian army was storing grain.

This was Wang Meng's second attempt to feed Chutian.

Ashinasheer's cavalry marched very fast, and after learning that Liu Bei's main force was fighting against Chu Tian's main force, they immediately attacked.

Suddenly, in the darkness, torches lit up like fire dragons, and the Women's Army armed with infantry crossbows fired ten thousand arrows, killing Ashinasheer's cavalry!

Ashina Sher looked around, there were torches and arrows everywhere, and his cavalrymen turned on their backs.

"retreat!"

According to Wang Meng's instructions to him, if the attack is unfavorable, then retreat immediately.

At least thousands of cavalry died under the arrows of the Women's Army!

Li Xiuning led 500 cavalry soldiers, standing high on the hillside, she pulled out the Tang saber at her waist: "Kill!"

The five hundred cavalry took advantage of the terrain to charge, and the horses hooves galloped like tigers down the mountain!

Ashina Sher's cavalry unit was cut off!

Li Xiuning personally killed the oncoming Turkic cavalry, and a smear of blood splattered on his handsome cheek!

On the other side, Jill, the deputy general of Joan of Arc, led an army of 20,000 servants, including ten war elephants, to block the enemy's retreat.

This is the ninth rank of arms that Chutian captured from the battlefield of the National War - the Iron Armored War Elephant.

Driven by the elephant slaves, the war elephant moved forward, trampling the cavalry along the way. The cavalry lost their mobility in front of the iron armored war elephant, and it was just a one-sided slaughter.

If the war elephant is used well, it can also have unexpected effects!

Ashina Sheer held a horse lance and fought bloody battles. He led his cavalry to attack the war elephant and used the horse lance in his hand to stab a war elephant in the eye.

The war elephant fell into a frenzy, trampled everywhere, and overturned Ashnasher's war horse!

The half-ton warhorse looked extremely in front of the four-ton war elephant, and the sharp ivory directly stabbed the warhorse to death.

Ashina Sheer landed, feeling a little dizzy, simply abandoned the war horse, fought on foot, and escaped from the gap between the war elephants.

He was terrified of such a behemoth, but he did not expect that Chu Zimou would bring the war elephants to attack Hebei.
