Chapter 168: Xue Rengui versus Lu Bu
"Report, General Wen Chou has pinned down the enemy's left wing!"
Yang Lin nodded with satisfaction. This was exactly the effect he wanted. The Xiliang Iron Cavalry was the enemy he was most worried about. If there was a chance, he would also like to directly wipe out the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. However, he did not have enough hard power after all, so he could only resort to this last resort.
"Order the archers to suppress the front with rain of arrows, disperse the front troops, and retreat the central army!" Seeing Xu Huang gradually approaching, Yang Lin began to give orders cunningly.
Feixiong and Xianzhen are very powerful, but no matter how powerful they are, can you kill your own front army directly?
Yang Lin's move was to lure the enemy deep into his territory and use Yuan Shao's life to attract Guo Hao and others to attack the central army.
In order to prevent Xu Huang's vanguard troops from giving way, Yang Lin used his own 20,000 vanguard troops as sacrifices and nailed them into Xu Huang's formation.
"This...this is treating the front army as abandoned pawns..." Yuan Shao looked at Yang Lin in disbelief and asked.
"Yes, leader, we must delay the enemy's center army in this battle. The gap in hard power between us is too big!" At this moment, Yang Lin finally revealed his ruthlessness as a famous general.
He had no way to make up for the gap in hard power, as he was not good at training soldiers. However, he was very experienced in how to restrict a strong army, and he would never use other methods if he could fill the gap with human lives.
"Those are all my assets!" Yuan Shao felt heartbroken. Those were all his family fortune. They were his own soldiers that he had built up bit by bit over the years. He didn't expect that they would all be lost in such a battle.
The 20,000 men were divided into a dozen small groups and trapped in the enemy's formation. He didn't even have the slightest hope that these soldiers could come back alive.
However, Yuan Shao, who was in a wise and brave state, said nothing. Since he had handed over the command to Yang Lin, he would not interfere too much. If he was not really heartbroken, he would not have asked.
Looking at Yuan Shao, who was extremely heartbroken but restrained himself, Yang Lin's eyes showed even more satisfaction. He was indeed a wise leader that he was optimistic about. With such magnanimity, he would accomplish great things.
"Don't worry, leader. As long as you win this battle, you will get more!" After testing Yuan Shao's temperament, Yang Lin comforted Yuan Shao.
To be honest, Yang Lin had no better way. The gap in strength between the two sides was huge. If the gap in strength between the two sides was not big, he would not be so cruel and directly use 60,000 soldiers as bait and pawns to fish.
But his bait was big enough, and Guo Hao was about to take the bait.
Huang Zhong, who was in charge of fire suppression, was also in a dilemma. Close combat was extremely dangerous, and there was not much room left for archers like them to perform.
Looking around, it was clear that Changshui and Shesheng were unable to exert their full strength. The soldiers on both sides were fighting closely and their attacks could easily injure friendly forces by mistake.
“How about the right wing?”
Seeing that everything was going according to his script, Yang Lin couldn't help but smile with satisfaction .
"Report, General Yan Liang on the right wing was injured, and General Xue Rengui was defeated by Lu Bu and seriously injured. The right wing is in danger now!"
The situation on the right wing was precarious. Yan Liang, who adopted the same tactics as Wen Chou, encountered a worse situation than Wen Chou.
The Xiliang Iron Cavalry likes to play in waves, rushing in and breaking through the defense line, and then the Qiang Cavalry will sweep the land and win.
The Bingzhou Wolf Riders played their games much more elegantly; they liked to act like a pack of wolves, tearing the wounds off their opponents bit by bit, and finally delivering a fatal blow.
Lu Bu, wearing fancy armor, rushed to the front . He was very skilled in the wolf pack tactics of the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry. And with Zhang Liao as the commander, he only had to be responsible for the charge.
On the left wing, Yuwen Chengdu led his personal guards into the Qiang auxiliary cavalry, and Xue Rengui also copied this breakthrough tactic.
As a result, he ran head-on into Lu Bu who was leading his troops to charge.
Xue Rengui rushed into the Xiliang auxiliary troops, and without hesitation swung his Fang Tian Hua Ji left and right to kill a circle of soldiers. The personal guards behind him also formed a torrent and rushed forward.
Xue Rengui was very eye-catching in his white robe, and Lu Bu saw at a glance that Xue Rengui was killing the auxiliary soldiers of Xiliang.
"Hahaha, I let you get away last time, but I won't let you go this time."
Lu Bu drove the Red Hare with all his strength. With a loud bang, the Red Hare, moving at super high speed, appeared in front of Xue Rengui carrying Lu Bu.
Xue Rengui's face was a little distorted. The white jade horse under his command was only at the level of internal energy forming a Gang, while the red horse opposite him actually had the level of internal energy leaving the body. To be honest, if we only compare the amount of internal energy, he may not be able to compare with this red horse.
Lu Bu used his Fang Tian Hua Ji to deflect Xue Rengui's full-strength attack, then turned around and cooperated with Red Hare to send the Fang Tian Hua Ji to Xue Rengui's neck.
Xue Rengui barely dodged the fierce halberd attack, and then realized how terrifying Lu Bu was when he moved.
When he confronted Lu Bu before, Lu Bu basically followed suit after he made a move.
The Lu Bu who is in action is truly the best in the world, and in order to control the variables, Lu Bu did not activate the boundary-breaking state.
He couldn't fully grasp that state. In comparison, this state was the one he was most familiar with, and it was also his true strength.
"Open it!" Xue Rengui threw away his composure and roared. He avoided Lu Bu's Fang Tian Hua Ji, kept his distance and shot three arrows at high speed, and then rushed towards Lu Bu with another three arrows.
Every arrow turned into a roaring white tiger as it flew, and Xue Rengui, who was waving his Fang Tian Hua Ji behind the arrow, also seemed to turn into a white tiger.
"The Four Saints White Tigers slay the evil!"
Xue Rengui's killer move, he knew he could not beat Lu Bu, Lu Bu might be stronger than last time, and the extent of his strength was much stronger.
What it didn't know was that the last time Lu Bu fought with him, his mind was perfected again after he killed Ding Yuan , and his strength had improved greatly compared to last time. Naturally, he couldn't catch up with the rapidly perfecting Lu Bu by practicing step by step.
"interesting!"
Lu Bu's fighting spirit soared. Xue Rengui's killing move aroused his competitive spirit. He also knew how to use this move.
"Gan Lang!"
With absolute power, Lu Bu's Fang Tian Hua Ji blocked Xue Rengui's attack head-on. A strange force penetrated the Fang Tian Hua Ji and rushed straight to Lu Bu's face, but the Red Hare and Lu Bu were in tune with each other, and with a sideways move, Lu Bu avoided Xue Rengui's attack.
Although Lu Bu didn't care about Xue Rengui's attack, Red Hare would not allow his master to be harmed by such an attack.
“Puff~”
Lu Bu noticed a tiny wound on his face, which kept healing and breaking again.
Lu Bu touched his face, and then used his own spirit to wipe out the spirit of Xue Rengui contained in the wound.
Xue Rengui’s attack is very interesting. It is different from Guan Yu and Yuwen Chengdu. It is completely his own way.
He underestimated Xue Rengui a little. He was a little too arrogant in his previous attack. If Red Hare hadn't moved sideways, he might have suffered a big loss.
Although Xue Rengui is not his opponent now, he will definitely be a good opponent in the future.
