The purpose of cavalry is to maneuver quickly.

In recent years, Zhou Cheng led troops to fight and had great experience in the use of cavalry.

At this time, Zhou Cheng used Zhang Liao as the main force in the frontal attack on Gongsun Zan.

Zhang He, Zhao Yun, and Xu Huang all fought independently.

The adopted operational intention was to divide Gongsun Zan's territory so that the counties would lose contact with each other.

The ultimate goal of the battle is to 'lock up' Gongsun Zan alone.

……

The river has frozen.

Yan Gang and Zhao Yun faced off along the river.

Yan Gang had 20,000 men, while Zhao Yun had 20,000 cavalry.

Among Yan Gang's 20,000 men, there were only 3,000 cavalry and pawns, and in terms of quality, they were obviously no match for Zhao Yun.

However, Yan Gang's mission is to intercept Zhao Yun, with the purpose of containing him.

Zhao Yun stood on the earth platform that was built, watched Yan Gang's military situation, and then said:"Let the Xianbei people attack Yan Gang's left wing, and the Rouran people attack Yan Gang's right wing."

Among the 20,000 cavalry under Zhao Yun's command, Ten thousand are Xianbei cavalry, and five thousand are Rouran cavalry.

Yan Gang set up a fish scale formation on the river bank to prevent Zhao Yun from directly attacking the Chinese army.

"Here."The herald immediately went to convey the order.

Woo - as the trumpet blew, the Xianbei cavalry and Rouran cavalry launched an attack.

At nearly two hundred steps away, the Xianbei cavalry and Rouran cavalry had already raised their bows and nocked arrows.

"Stand up a shield!"

At this time, Yan Gang ordered the sword and shield soldiers in the front row to raise their shields to resist the incoming arrows.

Whoosh!

The arrows were like locusts.

After observing the battle, Zhao Yun ordered:"Come with me."

The cavalry led by Zhao Yun this time came from the Tiger Camp and the Shenshe Battalion respectively.

There were two thousand Tiger Ben cavalry, coupled with four thousand cavalry archers from the Shenshe Battalion.

Zhao Yun took the cavalry and detoured back to Yan Gang's rear.

The weakness of the Fish Scale Formation was It is relatively weak in the middle and rear areas.

However, Yan Gang's central army is located in the Fish Scale Formation and has the smallest strength.

"kill!"Zhao Yun began to raid.

Yan Gang was shocked and hurriedly mobilized the flanks.

However, the mounted archers from the Divine Archery Battalion taught Yan Gang a lesson with mounted archery.

Zhou Cheng stole his masters from Xianbei and Rouran, and the rigorously trained archers Shooting camp, at this time, the arrows were accurately shot to Yan Gang's flanks.

Yan Gang's flanks did not have enough shields. Although a large number of infantry lined up to welcome the cavalry attack, they fell to the ground screaming under the rain of arrows.

As if It was harvesting, and rows of soldiers fell to the ground.

The armies and horses of both sides were not at the same level in terms of combat experience, training level, and weapons and equipment.

Most of the 20,000 soldiers and horses led by Yan Gang were newly recruited and dissatisfied. Qingzhou soldiers who had been fighting for one year and had no combat experience.

On the other hand, the troops led by Zhao Yun had followed Zhou Cheng in the north and south for more than ten years and had rich combat experience.

The encounter started at noon and took less than two hours. Before dark, , Yan Gang was defeated.

Yan Gang led the cavalry and fled towards Jixian in embarrassment.

Zhao Yun captured a large amount of baggage and captured nearly 10,000 prisoners at the same time.

……

Zhang Liao led his army to attack Yuyang.

His task is not to insert, but to suppress them head-on.

Zhou Cheng assigned to Zhang Liao one thousand soldiers from Zhou Wu, five thousand from Panshi Camp, five thousand from Huya Camp, three thousand from Daybreak Cavalry, three thousand from Huben Camp, three thousand from Dare to Death Battalion, and fifteen thousand from Death Fight Battalion. , and the Shenji Battalion of 5,000 people, with a total of 40,000 soldiers.

There are professional siege equipment in Shenji Camp.

Obviously, Zhang Liao's army seemed to be the main force in attacking the city.

Yuyang, Ji County.

Gongsun Zan has just arrived in Jixian with his army.

Zhou Cheng's raid on Youzhou really caught Gongsun Zan off guard.

Although Gongsun Zan had long thought that Zhou Cheng would attack him, he did not expect that Zhou Cheng would attack so soon.

However, Gongsun Zan had already occupied Qingzhou, and he had asked Tian Kai to mobilize 50,000 troops and horses from Qingzhou.

More military horses and grain will be transferred from Qingzhou in the future.

However, the news that Yan Gang's army was defeated by Zhao Yun had reached Jixian.

Yan Gang was defeated and Tian Kai returned to help Youzhou, so he might be ambushed.

Zhang He led an army of 30,000 men, passed through Zhuojun, and attacked Yuyang.

Zhang Liao led an army of 40,000 men and marched into Yuyang.

Xu Huang led his army to capture Xuantu County and launched a surprise attack on Liaodong County.

Zhao Yun led his army to attack Fan Yang and continued to attack Fan Yang.

The situation is not optimistic.

Gongsun Zan is also a good warrior.

Although his younger brother Gongsun Yue died in the battle, Gongsun Zan was furious.

However, Gongsun Zan understood that this was the most critical moment and he must deal with it calmly.

Liu He, who is in Guangyang County and Yuyang County, welcomed a special guest today.

Under Zhou Cheng's account, Wen Sheng is the best lobbyist.

Wen Sheng came secretly and wanted to discuss with Liu He alone.

Wen Sheng represents Zhou Cheng.

Liu He naturally knew this, so Liu He agreed to meet Wen Sheng privately.

Wen Sheng also took out Zhou Cheng's autographed letter.

In the letter, Zhou Cheng was willing to become Liu He as the shepherd of Youzhou, but the prerequisite was that Liu He needed to hand over his military power.

As a side condition, Zhou Cheng will hand over Gongsun Zan to Liu He so that Liu He can avenge his father's murder.
