On the North Map slope, the battle situation has entered a white-hot trend.

Almost every moment, Yuan Shao surrendered, and the soldiers of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry died on the North Map Slope. The blood was so thick that it seemed like small streams flowing down the North Map Slope into the surging Yellow River.

Seeing that Xiliang's cavalry had already overwhelmed Yuan Shao's surrendered soldiers, and would be able to defeat two thousand Yuan Shao's surrendered soldiers in a short time, Zhang Xiu, who was fighting fiercely with Gan Ning, withdrew his horse and exited the battle circle, wiping away the rolling blood on his forehead.

With beads of sweat, he laughed and said:

"Wu Zhaohou, surrender quickly, and I may be able to spare your life! Otherwise, don't blame me for humiliating you when all our troops and horses are lost!"

"Bold maniac, take a knife from me!"

When Gan Ning heard Zhang Xiu's words, he roared angrily, dismounted from his horse, jumped out of the battle circle, suddenly drew his sword, and swung it directly towards Zhang Xiu's lower abdomen. If he had been struck by the sword, he would have suffered even if he had not been cut into two pieces.

Seriously injured!

Zhang Xiu was so shocked that he quickly reined in his horse and stood up. He leaned back, slashed his sword into the belly of the horse, and disemboweled the horse!

Zhang Xiu, who was sitting on the horse, suddenly leaned back because of the sudden death of the horse, which was weightless.

Plop!

With a loud bang, Zhang Xiu rolled over and was covered in blood. If he hadn't grabbed the dirt on the ground, he would have almost rolled down the North Map slope and into the Yellow River. Even so, Zhang Xiu also looked frightened!

Before Zhang Xiu could react, a sound of horse hooves that shook the sky came quickly, and the earth seemed to start to tremble. Zhang Xiu couldn't help but change his expression, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound of horse hooves.

A cavalry group with the banner of "Zhao" and flying flags detoured from the east. The first general caught Zhang Xiu's eyes, wearing white armor, white robes and white cloak, holding a bright silver iron gun.

, the end is majestic.

However, when he saw the general's appearance clearly, Zhang Xiu's pupils quickly tightened, and he lost his voice: "Zhao Yun!"

Chen Gong did not lose his composure like Zhang Xiu. Seeing Zhao Yun attacking with five thousand soldiers and horses, he calmly ordered: "Withdraw from the battle circle, divide one thousand people into a round formation to defend against the incoming enemy!"

As soon as Chen Gong finished speaking, he immediately turned his eyes and looked at Zhang Ji, who had already escaped Xu Chu's pursuit and went to the other side. He loudly ordered: "Where is Zhang Ji? Speed ​​up a thousand troops and form a horizontal formation.

The word is long snake formation!"

"Here!"

"Here!"

As soon as two generals agreed, two groups of thousands of people immediately dispersed to the north. Zhang Xiu led a thousand people and formed a long snake formation horizontally from west to east. Another general led a thousand people and quickly formed an array.

Go to the east and form the most ordinary circular formation to defend against the cavalry that is getting closer!

The sudden attack of five thousand cavalry made all the Xiliang cavalry present feel a chill in their hearts.

Anyone can see that the black-edged eagle flag is the flag of Wu Zhaohou, and the people coming must be Wu Zhaohou's troops. Just now, even two thousand Yuan Shao's surrendered soldiers were defeated with great difficulty. At this moment, thousands of Wu Zhaohou's troops are fighting.

Cavalry, how to stop it?

Even Zhang Ji felt frustrated, angry, and a little worried.

Seeing that the enemy who hated his wife was running rampant in the world and was in the limelight for a moment, he had to lower his head and cover his tracks like a mouse.

After waiting for several years, he finally seized an opportunity. He obviously thought that as long as he defeated these two thousand Yuan Shao's troops, he could avenge his wife and beat his enemies to death. However, thousands of cavalry suddenly appeared.

All Zhang Ji’s hopes were dashed!

I'm afraid things have changed now. Wu Zhaohou may not die, but he may be trapped here!

Different from the mood of others, Chen Gong felt a sense of joy in his heart at this moment. Everything was not as he expected. If this continues, if he can defeat Wu Zhaohou here, he will surely become famous.

When the time comes, we will take the opportunity to disclose the identity of the lord, advance into Jizhou, occupy a county, and slowly develop. It is impossible to expect that there will be a grand renaissance of Guangwu!

While he was thinking about it, Zhao Yun had already led five thousand cavalry, coming with an unstoppable momentum. The team was extremely neat, and the vast killing intent made all the soldiers on the field tremble.

"kill!"

Without any hesitation, when he saw that he was approaching the circular formation, Zhao Yun glanced at Yun Ye from afar, grabbed his spear, and roared an order: "The arrows will cover the formation and suppress it. Others, follow me directly into the formation!"

The circular formation is known as one of the ten formations in ancient times, but in Zhao Yun's view, it is simply vulnerable to a single blow given its absolute strength!

And just when Zhao Yun finished speaking, the cavalry archers had already bent their bows and strings, and thousands of arrows surged out, leaping over the heads of Wu Zhaohou's army, like hail, and crazily piled into the Xiliang cavalry.

Within the circular formation formed.

Puff! Puff! Puff...

Ah! Ah! Ah!...

Under a hail of arrows, the sharp arrows wildly killed Xiliang cavalry one after another, like cutting wheat, causing bursts of miserable howls, and the entire formation immediately became chaotic.

"Sun San, Li Si, you two each lead 500 men, prepare to break through the two wings!" Zhao Yun used one hand to shoot the arrows reflected by the Xiliang cavalry, and shouted an order:

"Bai Que, go kill the archers hiding in the weeds!"

After three or four waves of arrows, the five thousand troops of Marquis Wu Zhao were approaching the round formation of the Xiliang cavalry. Zhao Yun suddenly reared his horse, raised his head to the sky and roared: "Draw your saber and charge into the formation!"

As he said that, he waved his spear and swept away the two people in front of him, tore a gap in the circular formation, and rushed into the formation unstoppably.

The soldiers behind them drew their sabers and charged towards the circular formation with roars. Almost instantly, a bloody storm broke out.

The screams of soldiers, the neighing of war horses, the sound of gold and iron clashing...

The entire battlefield was in chaos, even covering up the sound of the rolling Yellow River waves at the foot of the mountain. When Chen Gong saw how brave Zhao Yun was, his expression changed and he ordered:

"Everyone else, get in the way! Don't let the enemy break through the formation!"

If Zhao Yun is allowed to break through the formation, with the bravery of Wu Zhaohou's army, and the number of people is still higher than that of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry will definitely not be able to stop it for long. In this way, the backup plan will be in vain!

All in all, Chen Gong didn't dare to take the gamble. After giving the order, he looked at Zhang Xiu and shouted: "Zhang Xiu, hurry up and stop Zhao Yun!"

Chen Gong is not a fool. He can naturally see that Zhao Yun contributed a lot to Wu Zhaohou's army being so fierce. Now it seems that the only one who can stop Zhao Yun is Zhang Xiu!

However, after Zhang Xiu heard Chen Gong's order, he immediately rushed forward, grabbed a soldier on horseback, shot Gan Ning away with a feint, and ran straight towards Zhao Yun on horseback, roaring with a serious look on his face.
