As the Qi army began to break through the first line of defense, they poured into the Han army camp.
The officers and soldiers of the two armies started fighting in the Han army camp.
There were shouts of killing and screams everywhere.
The Han cavalry at the rear is also the most elite unit under Zhao Yun.
When the Qi army broke through the first line of defense.
There was already action.
The cavalry captain directly issued the order to charge and cover up the Qi army that rushed into the camp.
The Han soldiers guarding the front, as if they had known it early, did not gather in the center, but resisted the Qi army on both sides, giving the cavalry troops room to charge.
The five thousand Han cavalry, led by the cavalry captain, were like a torrent rushing toward the Qi army.
Led by the cavalry captain, they formed an arrow array, which, like a sharp arrow, penetrated directly into the Qi army and charged all the way.
Each cavalryman held a long sword in his hand, which was also their weapon.
Under the impact of the war horses, he waved the long sword and slashed the Qi army soldiers on his side.
After all, they are the most elite troops under Zhao Yun's command, and they are trained by Zhao Yun.
Taking advantage of the cavalry again, they charged.
Along the way, they seemed to be unstoppable, charging directly into the Qi army formation, with flesh and blood flying all the way, and countless blood splattered on their bodies.
There was no expression on his face, but a firm look on his face.
The long knife in his hand was swung up and down, and he kept repeating it.
And aside.
Guan Ping, who led the sword troops under Guan Yu, also noticed the situation of the Han cavalry.
Seeing that the army was unable to withstand the charge of the Han cavalry.
There was no hesitation.
With a wave of the big sword in his hand, he led five hundred swordsmen and charged towards the elite Han cavalry.
After all, he could not watch this Han cavalry show off its violence in the army.
The five hundred swordsmen are also the most elite soldiers under Guan Yu's command, and they are also Guan Yu's personal guards.
They are all selected through layers, and some of them are veterans of hundreds of battles who have followed Guan Yu for a long time.
Although the Han cavalry was very powerful, the five hundred swordsmen he led were not bad either.
And as long as the cavalry is stopped and the horses cannot run, the combat effectiveness of this cavalry will be greatly reduced.
When Guan Ping led five hundred swordsmen towards the Han cavalry.
Captain Qi Du, who was leading the Han cavalry, also noticed this situation.
What's more, he also knew Guan Ping.
After all, his general and Guan Yu were old rivals.
If he didn't even understand Guan Yu's generals, , so there is no need to mix. but.
There was no fear on his face, he still looked determined.
"Kill, life will not stop, the fight will not stop" The cavalry captain shouted and led the cavalry to continue charging forward.
"There is death but no life.
Kill, kill, kill."
The cavalry officers behind him also started to shout loudly.
Their formation did not change and they continued to charge.
No matter what is in front of them, they must break through it directly.
This is also their belief.
The loud shouts of the Han cavalry also boosted the morale of the other Han soldiers.
They fought even more mercilessly.
Although the number was smaller than that of the Qi army, they still stopped the Qi army and beat them evenly. of.
At this time.
The Han cavalry also came into contact with Guan Ping and five hundred swordsmen who came up.

The momentum of the cavalry charge was also intercepted.
Although they were the most elite troops under Zhao Yun, the five hundred swordsmen led by Guan Ping were not bad at all, and they rushed into the Qi army's formation, surrounded by Qi army soldiers on the left and right.
Even though the five hundred swordsmen led by Guan Ping were smaller in number, they were still able to stop them.
"drink" Was stopped.
The Cavalry Captain also shouted loudly, waved the long knife in his hand, and slashed at Guan Ping.
The rest of the cavalry officers also waved their swords and fought with the enemy.
Even if they could not continue to charge, they did not forget their mission.
However, the strength of the cavalry that cannot charge has been greatly weakened, and it cannot continue to make the Qi soldiers fall on their backs.
When Guan Ping saw the Cavalry Commander approaching with a sword, he was not afraid at all.
He turned the sword in his hand and rode forward to meet him.
The broadsword in his hand is also somewhat similar to Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue Sword.
It is imitated, but it is not 100% similar, and the difference can still be seen. when Qi Duwei also fought with Guan Ping.
The cavalry captain who can become the most elite unit under Zhao Yun is also capable, otherwise Zhao Yun would not let him take over the cavalry unit.
But Guan Ping is no ordinary general.
He is Guan Yu's adopted son, and he is also learning from Guan Yu.
Although he is not Zhao Yun's opponent, he will be able to deal with a cavalry captain.
The broadsword in his hand was also swung repeatedly, slashing towards the Cavalry Captain.
Except at the beginning.
The Cavalry Captain could still make a slight counterattack, but later he could only resist.
After more than ten rounds. puff There was a flash of white light.
The broadsword in Guan Ping's hand slashed across Captain Cavalry's chest, bringing up a trace of blood.
Then he saw that the armor on the knight's chest was cut open, and countless blood flowed out from his chest, like water from a sluice, and it couldn't be stopped.
The captain's sword-wielding hand paused, and then fell off his horse. die in battle The death of the cavalry captain in battle did not cause the Han cavalry to become confused and continued to fight with the Qi army officers and soldiers in the chaos.
Because when the Cavalry Commander died in battle, someone one level lower than the Cavalry Commander came out to take command.
This was also the system of the Han army.
What's more, their leader, Zhao Yun, is still fighting. aside.
Zhao Yun fought with Guan Yu.
He was also unable to take care of too much in his avatar.
After all, he couldn't help but be distracted when fighting Guan Yu.
Watching the number of soldiers on the battlefield slowly decrease.
Zhao Yun was also anxious, but he couldn't find any solution.
The Qi army's number was several times theirs, and they were broken through the defense line.
They came into contact and turned into a melee, which was also very detrimental to them.
What's more, the Qi army also has a general named Guan Ping.
Among the generals under his command, no one was Guan Ping's opponent.
Slowly.
Changes have also taken place on the battlefield.
The soldiers of the Han army who were still resisting desperately were forced back step by step, and they were obviously at a disadvantage.
It was only a matter of time before the camp was captured.
Looking at the Han soldiers falling one after another.
Zhao Yun also knew that he could no longer stop the Qi army.
He feigned a shot, pulled the horse's rein, and broke away from the battle circle, shouting: "The whole army retreats!"
While running past a camp.
Zhao Yun put down the spear in his hand, took out a fire stick, blew it on fire, and threw it directly at the tent that looked a little tattered due to the battle between the two armies.
The tent was also set on fire instantly.

Hearing Zhao Yun's shout.
The Han soldiers who were still resisting also abandoned their opponents and retreated. at the same time.
There were also many Han soldiers among them.
They did the same thing as Zhao Yun, taking out fire sticks, blowing them, and throwing them on the surrounding tents.
Every tent where the fire was thrown was instantly ignited.
Yesterday.
After Zhao Yun agreed to Kuai Liang's plan, he asked Kuai Liang to make all arrangements.
Kuai Liang also collected all the kerosene in the army, and led his soldiers to sprinkle kerosene on all the tents and put flammable objects inside.
To prevent yourself from burning your own.
Since last night, the soldiers have not been allowed to enter the camp to rest, but have stayed outside the camp.
Moreover, lit torches, fire trays, etc. are not allowed to come close to the tents anywhere.
After all, they don't want any accident to happen.
Along with many fire folds were thrown out.
Every tent in the Han army's camp also burned, and it spread quickly, forming a sea of fire.
A single spark can start a prairie fire.
Originally, when Guan Yu saw Zhao Yun leading the remaining Han troops to retreat, he prepared to command the army to pursue them.
Even if Zhao Yun could not be retained, he still wanted to reduce the strength of the Han army and make plans to invade Runan City, but before he could take action, he saw Zhao Yun's movements.
And in an instant.
The Han army camp began to burn.
"Stop the pursuit and withdraw from the camp" Guan Yu shouted.
At the same time, he also turned the horse's head and retreated to the rear.
Seeing the current situation, he also knew that Zhao Yun had been prepared early in the morning.
Even if he was defeated, he had made preparations for retreat.
Moreover, such a fire could not be put out quickly even if the entire army was assembled.
I heard Guan Yu shouting.
The soldiers of the Qi army did not hesitate and turned around and left the camp.
After all, they did not want to be buried in the sea of fire.
Zhao Yun led the remaining Han soldiers to retreat.
Guan Yu also led the Qi army soldiers to leave the Han army camp.
But the fire burning in the Han army's camp would not be extinguished because of this, because the tents everywhere were filled with the smell of kerosene, and if they caught fire, a sea of fire would soon form.
Even Guan Yu and the soldiers of the Qi army, who were already some distance away from the Han army camp, could still feel the warmth of the fire.
"General, I didn't expect that the Han army would make such a decision."
Mi Zhu also walked over on horseback and sighed.
There was also some pity in my heart.
If I had known that the Han army's camp was full of kerosene and flammable materials, I would not have used a strong attack before, but would have fired rockets directly at the Han army's camp.
There won't be too much loss.
However, there is no if.
Hear the words.
Guan Yu also nodded.
If it weren't for the fire, there wouldn't be many Han troops left who could leave.
"Father, how should we deal with this fire?"
Guan Ping asked.
Now the entire Han army camp was on fire.
If they wanted to pass, they could only wait until the fire was extinguished, otherwise they would not be able to pass at all.
"General, there are deep mountains and dense forests on both sides of this place.

Once the fire spreads," Mi Zhu also said.
After listening to the words of the two people.
Guan Yu also frowned and looked at the burning Han army camp in front of him.
Indeed, if the fire is not controlled, they will not be able to pass, and the most important thing is that there are deep mountains and dense forests on both sides.
Once it spreads, it will cause bad consequences.
And now that there is a sea of fire barrier, it is no longer possible for the army to pursue and take Runan City directly.
"Let the soldiers put out the fire, and send two troops to go around to the left and right sides, cut down trees, dig trenches, and block the spread of the fire," Guan Yu ordered.
Although he ignored it, as long as he waited for the Han army's fire in front of him to extinguish, he would be able to pass.
As for whether it would spread, even if he didn't care, there would be no problem.
But he still couldn't do such a thing.
He was also angry towards Zhao Yun in his heart.
He didn't believe that Zhao Yun could not have imagined what consequences would be caused once the fire spread, but Zhao Yun did it anyway.
"promise" Guan Ping and Mi Zhu didn't have any objections.
They agreed and turned around to make arrangements.
In their hearts, they didn't want the fire to spread.
soon.
The soldiers of the Qi army also began to take action and tried their best to put out the fire in the Hanzhong camp.
Guan Ping and Mi Zhu led two groups of Qi soldiers into the deep mountains and dense forests on both sides of the Han camp, preparing to cut down trees and dig trenches to prevent the fire from spreading.
Although the soldiers of the Qi army began to put out the fire, how could the fire stained with kerosene be easily put out?
The fire was still burning tenaciously, and the trees on both sides had begun to burn.
It was obvious that it was about to spread.
After all, it is almost winter, and there are dead branches and leaves everywhere, and it is very easy to burn.
Guan Yu stood in front of the burning Han army camp, with his red phoenix eyes half-squinted, not knowing what he was thinking. from time to time Guan Ping and Mi Zhu, who led two Qi army soldiers to the left and right sides, also came back almost at the same time.
"How?"
Guan Yu asked doubtfully.
The two of them should have led the soldiers to cut down trees and dig trenches to prevent the fire from spreading.
Returning so quickly also made Guan Yu a little confused.
"General, about two miles to the right, the trees have been cut down, and there is a trench three feet wide.
The fire cannot spread.
My subordinates also asked the soldiers to stay in place to ensure safety," Mi Zhu said.
"Father, the situation on the left is the same," Guan Ping said.
Hear the words.
Guan Yu also stared blankly.
"General, it seems that the Han army has decided to burn down the camp and block our army's advance.
They are already prepared and will not let the fire spread to avoid causing any accidents," Mi Zhu continued.
Guan Yu also nodded.
It was obvious that the arrangements on both sides were prepared by the Han army early in the morning.
They also knew the danger of the fire spreading and were prepared for this.
Just letting the fire block their pursuit will not let the fire spread.
Thinking of this, I felt relieved a lot from Zhao Yun's anger. but.
Even if you know there is an arrangement.
Guan Yu did not ask the soldiers to stop putting out the fire.
No matter what, the fire still needed to be put out.
Otherwise, we don’t know how long it will take until the fire goes out on its own.
Time passed little by little.

Wait until the fire is extinguished.
This time it was also in a mess, with white smoke rising everywhere, and because of the traces of the fire, the road was twice as wide. but.
Guan Yu no longer led the army forward, but set up camp here, just some distance away from the place where the fire burned.
After the previous battle and putting out the fire, the soldiers were almost exhausted and it was not suitable to continue the march.
And it's not far from Runan City.
There is only five miles of land.
Prepare to rest for a while before continuing to Runan City
