Chapter 169 Yang Lin's Plan
"You're pretty good. You could be in the top five among the people I've met. But it's a pity that you've ended up here."
Lu Bu praised Xue Rengui softly, and then began to rub his strongest move. Such a strong man should be sent off with the strongest move.
Xue Rengui couldn't say a word. His sixth sense was frantically reminding him to run.
Lu Bu was definitely preparing some terrifying ultimate move, but his reason told him that Lu Bu had already locked onto all directions around him.
If he acts rashly and turns to flee, he will surely be met with a thundering blow.
"Hehehe, I was originally planning to start with that pretty boy Zhao Zilong, but I didn't expect you to come to my door." Lu Bu said somewhat unhappily.
I don’t know why he hates Zhao Yun so much. It seems that Zhao Yun is going to take something away from him. This feeling makes Lu Bu very unhappy.
Lu Bu was very confident that Zhao Yun could not snatch anything from him. It was not that he looked down on Zhao Yun, but he was confident that he was the best in the world.
But he also knew that he was a world-breaking god, and his premonitions were most likely warnings of things to happen in the future.
He could even feel that this premonition might have come from his future self, in order to make him target Zhao Yun.
Lu Bu stirred the air, and the blue-green plasma that Xue Rengui was familiar with appeared again. Unlike last time, this time Lu Bu had mastered the technique of using this move under the clouds more skillfully.
After barely condensing the plasma into a beam and shooting it out, Lu Bu used his spirit to firmly lock onto Xue Rengui. Xue Rengui was stunned for a moment, but reacted in an instant. Even though he had no internal energy, he recovered with the help of his spirit.
But it was too late, the plasma had already hit him.
Xue Rengui fought desperately in fear, and Lu Bu even felt that Xue Rengui might break through the boundary in the next second, but in an instant Xue Rengui's breath weakened.
Lu Bu waved his hand and sucked Xue Rengui, whose life or death was unknown, into his hand.
At this moment, Xue Rengui no longer had any charm at all. Apart from his Fang Tian Hua Ji, his entire body looked like charcoal.
Lu Bu felt it slightly and found that Xue Rengui was not dead yet, and his life force was constantly recovering.
He casually sent out a stream of internal energy to help Xue Rengui recover, and at the same time locked Xue Rengui's internal energy firmly in his body.
"You're a good opponent, so I'll spare your life for now."
Lü Bu laughed wildly and threw Xue Rengui to his men. The vitality of his internal energy was very strong, so he was not worried that Xue Rengui would die from the rough treatment.
On the other side, Yan Liang was also helpless facing Zhao Yun.
He didn't know what was going on with the Zhao Zilong opposite him. He couldn't hit him at all. It was obvious that he was stronger than him, but for some reason he couldn't launch an attack that matched his strength.
The two men fought for a long time, and Yan Liang suffered a minor injury, but he recovered in an instant, making it impossible to tell who was the winner.
Zhao Yun had a blank expression on his face. He shook the Longdan Spear, directly creating a vacuum around him. He then used the vacuum to condense a giant silver python in the air.
"Seven-probe snake spear!"
Yan Liang didn't even look at it, and just chopped Zhao Yun's attack with a single blow of his sword, and then another flash of sword chopped towards Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun dodged Yan Liang's attack calmly and dealt with Yan Liang with a thoughtful look on his face.
He really didn't understand why he could fight Lu Bu on equal terms, but was only evenly matched with Yan Liang.
However, he felt that Xue Rengui's breath, who was confronting Lu Bu, became weaker, and it seemed that the winner had been decided.
He didn't know why Lu Bu always targeted him. He had never provoked Lu Bu. He couldn't beat him, but he was not afraid of Lu Bu. After all, no one had been able to force him into a desperate situation.
Lu Bu is no match for him either. Although it brings him a lot of pressure, that's just how it is.
The report of the melee in the front army was heard in Guo Hao's central army.
Guo Hao and Chen Xi, who were a little regretful for not bringing Xu Rong with them, were in a bit of a dilemma. They both didn't understand why their strongest central army was blocked by their own people during the battle.
The two of them couldn't help but look at Qu Yi, who was in charge of the command. Qu Yi also looked uncomfortable, as he was also forced to do something he was not supposed to do.
With Li Ru not around, who knows what tricks the aristocratic families might do in Hulao Pass. Guo Hao is worried that Xu Rong will not be guarding Hulao Pass.
Looking at Hulao Pass, only Xu Rong and Guo Hao could suppress the entire army. There was no other way for Guo Hao and Xu Rong to guard the pass separately.
The generals outside, Lu Bu, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Ma Chao... every one of them is arrogant and proud. Except for Guo Hao who is in charge personally, no one else can subdue these generals.
After counting and counting, only Qu Yi is suitable for the role of commander.
Chen Xi followed here to stimulate the Sun's gift throughout the entire army, and on the other hand to use this kind of record to improve his status. After all, he did get the position of Prime Minister, but without any record, he couldn't suppress others.
On the contrary, strategists with spiritual talents are easier to suppress. Basically, those with spiritual talents can tell the difference between each other at a glance, and will not make trouble even if they are not convinced.
But the situation is not necessarily the same for the petty officials below. To them, any strategist can crush them. They simply cannot see the gap between Chen Xi and others.
What's more, Hulao Pass is not as safe as the area around Guo Hao. With basically the world's strongest legions by his side, there is absolutely no problem with safety.
"My lord, please forgive me. I am incompetent!" Qu Yi knelt down in front of Guo Hao, his face flushed with anxiety.
To be honest, before leaving, Qu Yi specifically sought advice from Xu Rong, who taught him to gather his strength into legions and rely on elite strength to crush the enemy.
However, they did not expect that the opponent was more skilled and used more than 60,000 soldiers as abandoned pawns to entangle the main force, putting them into a disadvantage.
"It doesn't matter. It's not your fault that there are countless masters in the alliance. What's more, our army has not been defeated yet. Victory is just a matter of time." Guo Hao was very optimistic.
"Report, news has come from the right wing army that the enemy general Xue Rengui has been captured and the right wing is about to win." The messenger came to report in time.
"Well done, Fengxian, Wenyuan, and Zilong!"
Guo Hao was greatly encouraged by the intelligence he received. This was the best news he had received since the war began. The right wing of the coalition forces was about to be broken, and after a while they could pounce on the central army and attack Yuan Shao directly.
"Hua Xiong, go to the left wing and lend a helping hand to Li Jue and his men!" The good news from the right wing gave Chen Xi an idea.
Since the central army was one step behind and the other party sacrificed a piece to hold back the most elite central army, Chen Xi was still quick-witted. Since the central army could not be defeated, he would continue to increase the offensive on both wings.
"Bo Ping, you go too. Go to the right wing and give them a helping hand."
Guo Hao also slapped his head and changed his mind. It was nothing for Flying Bear to do in the center of the army anyway, so it would be better to let the two military soul teams return to their own main force.
Since the central army can't get through, I will use my two fists on the left and right wings to smash you to death today.
"Took the bait!" A smile appeared on Yang Lin's face in the distance. He was waiting for this opportunity.
The departure of Xianzhen and Feixiong gave him the opportunity to win.
Guo Hao's troops are so elite that they are confident in their breakthrough.
"Let the armored soldiers and shield soldiers go out!" Yang Lin gave the order directly.
He came up with this crazy plan after he discovered that the defensive capabilities of Zhang Su's soldiers far exceeded those of regular troops.
He and Yuan Shao secretly made a large number of defensive armors and distributed them to the warriors selected from the army.
These warriors were all nine feet tall, huge in size, and fully armed with steel plate armor. They wore steel armor that Yuan Shao forced the noble families to collect from all over the place, and held thick shields to fight together with the armored soldiers.
Their only mission was to use nearly 10,000 men to hold down the two wings and create opportunities for the central army.
"Change the formation, to a long snake formation!" Yang Lin gave the order excitedly, abandoning nearly half of his troops as pawns. What he was waiting for was a chance to strike directly at the enemy.
"Give the order and let the chariot team set off!"
Huangfu Song once used the chariot corps to teach the Xiliang Iron Cavalry a lesson. Even with the elite level of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, they suffered a great loss at the hands of the chariots. Yang Lin remembered this deeply.
As the commander of a large army, he learned a lot from several games with Huangfu Song, so much so that he did not even go on the field to compete for a position in the Eight Schools of Xiyuan.
Speaking of war weapons, if the Xiliang Iron Cavalry with its equipment, saddles and stirrups is a killing weapon and the king of the battlefield, then the chariot corps with great limitations is the well-deserved king of kings.
The Xiliang Iron Cavalry is invincible, except for anti-chariots.
In other words, Fei Xiong can fight against the Tank Corps head-on, but the Tank Corps is very easy to train, while it is very difficult for Fei Xiong to replenish the troops.
If Chen Xi were given a choice, he would even be willing to exchange ten chariots for one Flying Bear soldier. It was truly a great deal.
Of course, it is undeniable that the chariot, which has been withdrawn from the stage of history since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, has too many restrictions on its use, but once it accelerates, it can really be fatal.
In a face-to-face confrontation, a thousand chariots would definitely crush a thousand Xiliang cavalry. This thing is simply unreasonable.
Even if a thousand flying bears can fight against the chariot, they have to consider the losses.
The reason why chariots were replaced by cavalry is because their use has too many restrictions.
Not only does it require terrain, but it also requires timing on the battlefield. If it is not used properly, this thing will not be able to distinguish between friend and foe when it charges.
There is a reason why in the Spring and Autumn Period, when calculating a country's strength, infantry and cavalry were not included, but only the number of chariots.
This kind of battlefield meat grinder is no joke. Infantry and cavalry are facing each other head-on on the plain. If the number of chariots is slightly more, it is basically a one-sided massacre with as many people as possible killing each other .
More than a thousand chariots roared and rushed out. The battle location was specially selected and naturally met the requirements of a chariot charge.
It can be said that during the truce, Yuan Shao did nothing but urged the aristocratic families behind him to provide enough chariots and livestock.
A chariot is pulled by two oxen and three horses, with five combat soldiers and a chariot driver on board. It is truly unmatched when it is in full swing.
