Chapter 637: Outside the City Scuffle


"General, remember, if you don't find Yu'er and them within ten miles, you don't have to go any further."

Xiang Yan instructed Laihu'er.

"Why is this?"

to protect the child.

"The battle line is too long, and now the enemy who is lying in ambush outside the city, I don't know where, it's too dangerous."

Xiang Yan explained.

"But isn't the young general dangerous," Laihu'er was a little puzzled by Xiang Yan's instructions.

"It doesn't matter, the ancestor broke Zhang Han 400,000 with tens of thousands, and Liu Bang 500,000 with 50,000, what a glory it is, since Yu'er takes the ancestor as an example, he doesn't want him to defeat the enemy who ambushed him, and he only hopes that he can lead his troops to break out of the encirclement, otherwise how can he lead my Xiang clan back to his homeland."

Xiang Yan's words were full of excitement.

"Subordinates understand," Lai Hu'er understood what Xiang Yan meant.

"Remember, let the archers fire arrows in both directions every time you pass a short distance, and don't be afraid to waste arrows."

Xiang Yan instructed.

"No" "Come General, you go" "No" After that, Laihu'er got on his horse and led the army in the direction of Xiang Yu.

"What's the matter, what's the movement of the defenders in the city?"

Liu Bei asked.

"Xiang Yan went out of the city with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, but Xiang Yan stayed outside the city with a group of people and did not go in the direction of Xiang Yu."

Huang Zhong replied.

"Military Division" Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang.

"Xiang Yan is worthy of being the master of the Xiang family, no wonder he was able to kill from a foreign country, occupy Liangzhou, and form a powerful force of tens of thousands of people in the poor countryside, thinking that he has seen through our army's ambush outside the city, and deliberately stayed to guard it to prevent our army from cutting off their back road."

Zhuge Liang exclaimed.

"Then what to do next," Liu Bei asked.

"Wait for the news from Yide and their side to come, and then make plans."

Zhuge Liang replied, and Zhuge Liang was faintly worried in his heart.

Speaking of which, it didn't take long for Zhang Fei's people to come with news.

"Lord, something is wrong," the visitor said in a panic.

"What's the matter" Liu Bei was shocked, Zhuge Liang, and Huang Zhong also changed their faces.

"That Xiang Yu and his subordinates are too powerful, especially that Xiang Yu, General Zhang and General Shi, are not Xiang Yu's opponents at all, and that Xiang Yu's subordinates, all of them are crazy, not afraid of death or cowardice, very brave, before his subordinates left, Xiang Yu was leading people to break through, and no one could stop him at all."

The person who came said in horror, to be honest, these people already have a shadow in their hearts, and they are afraid of Xiang Yu.

"It seems that I underestimated Xiang Yu, and I also underestimated Xiang Yu's subordinates."

Zhuge Liang said reproachfully.

"Don't blame yourself first."

Liu Bei persuaded him.

"Do you know how many people Xiang Yu brought," Liu Bei looked at the person who reported the news.

"Back to the lord, Xiang Yu only brought five thousand horsemen, and these five thousand horsemen fought with the army after being ambushed by five thousand archers of our army."

"In other words, there are less than 5,000 soldiers and horses fighting with General Zhang and General Shi."

Huang Zhong exclaimed.

"Sizzle" Liu Bei couldn't help but gasp.

"Sure enough, I underestimated that Xiang Yu, six times his enemy, I couldn't do anything about him, I was always worried about Yun Chang, Yide underestimated Xiang Yu, but I never thought that I underestimated Xiang Yu."

Zhuge Liang said reproachfully.

"I originally thought that Xiang Yu was born brave, that is, his martial arts were extraordinary, but I didn't expect that this ability to lead troops is also extraordinary."

Huang Zhong said in shock.

"Strategist, think of a way, this plan must not fall short like this."

Liu Bei pleaded with Zhuge Liang.

"Don't worry, Liang will do his best."

Zhuge Liang said solemnly.

Liu Bei and the others still didn't know that Xiang Yu had successfully led people to break out of the encirclement and rushed to this side, after all, it had been a while since the messenger left.

"The military advisor ordered," Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang expectantly.

"Xiang Yu's strength and ability are unexpected, we can't wait here, and then General Huang Zhong and Guan Ling will raid to support Xiang Yu's army, and the lord and Zhang Qing will deal with Xiang Yan guarding outside the city."

Zhuge Liang commanded.

"Okay, just act according to what the military advisor said" Liu Bei directly agreed with Zhuge Liang's strategy.

"General Huang, you bring 40,000 soldiers and horses to intercept it, and bring the remaining soldiers and horses to deal with Xiang Yan, and inform Yun Chang to let him attack the city, don't give the defenders in the city a chance to support Xiang Yan."

"No" Outside the city, Starting from the city gate, a distance of nearly two miles, all of them were Xiang Yan's soldiers and horses, they were distributed on both sides of the road, and there were three columns on each side, which were shield soldiers, then spearmen, and finally archers, and of course cavalry in the center.

Each one is prepared to be careless.

"It's coming" At this moment, countless people rushed out on both sides, and they were the Jingzhou soldiers and horses led by Liu Bei and Zhang Qing.

"Archer ready," Xiang Yan shouted.

"Soldiers, kill" Zhang Qing shouted, leading the cavalry of Jingzhou to ride his horse to kill Xiang Yan's men and horses.

Seeing that the enemy had rushed closer, Xiang Yan immediately ordered the arrow to be released.

"Suddenly, suddenly" In an instant, the arrows flew out like raindrops, dense and fast.

On the other side of "releasing arrows", Liu Bei and Zhang Qing also ordered to release arrows.

However, compared with Xiang Yan's archers, Liu Bei's archers are all mounted archers, with insufficient accuracy and density, and Xiang Yan arranged shield soldiers, which effectively prevented Liu Beifang's arrows.

"Shoot the arrows, release the arrows" Xiang Yan shouted again and again, and Xiang Yan seemed to want his archers to shoot all the arrows in the quiver before the Jingzhou army came over.

Xiang's archers frantically set up arrows and released arrows, and the speed was extremely fast, even if the head was dropped, they did not hesitate.

This did cause great trouble to the charging Jingzhou army, and many people were shot by arrows and fell off their horses, but the army that rushed up was also extremely fast, and it didn't take long to kill Xiang Yan.

"Throw the bow, draw the sword, and fight" Xiang Yan shouted again at this time, and those archers threw away their bows and arrows without hesitation and drew their swords.

Because Xiang's soldiers are scarce, Xiang's sphere of influence, there are few people, and the source of soldiers is insufficient, so Xiang Yan and others attach great importance to the lives of soldiers, in order to ensure their lives, whether it is an archer or a shield soldier, in addition to the shield, the bow and arrow also have a sword, the purpose is to have the ability to defend themselves after the shield and bow fail.

"Kill" Not long after, Liu Bei's men and horses finally collided with Xiang Yan's men, and the two sides started a fierce scuffle.

At the same time, on the other side of the city, Guan Yu received Liu Bei's order to immediately mobilize troops and horses and start a siege.

The bow and crossbow continued to fly towards the city, Shi Wengong was a little caught off guard, but he soon adjusted, organized soldiers to resist the siege of Guan Yu's army, and organized archers to counterattack Guan Yu, and the casualties on both sides continued to increase and became serious.

On the other side, According to Xiang Yan's order, Laihu'er released arrows from time to time on the surrounding hillsides, grasses, and woods, and the south was mountainous, forested, and grassy, and the terrain was complex.

Just as Laihu'er gave the order to release the arrows, a large number of troops suddenly rushed out of the hillside on the left.

"Arrows" came to protect the children and reacted very quickly, and immediately ordered the arrows to be released, and these soldiers who had just rushed out instantly became targets, and they were unlucky.

"Arrows, arrows" Laihu'er kept shouting, Laihu'er knew that the enemy who was ambushing them was coming, and it must be a vicious battle next, so he needed to take the initiative.

"Kill" As expected by Laihu'er, while Laihu'er ordered to keep firing arrows, more and more enemy troops appeared around them, and they were not unexpected, they directly hit the arrows, and Laihu'er's archers gave them a head-on blow.

"Soldiers, kill" At this time, Huang Zhong rushed out, followed by thousands of horsemen, and soldiers continued to appear on both sides of him, killing the army that had come to protect the children
