Lu Xun was not at all relaxed, and he even felt extremely frightened.

He had realized what Zhang He wanted to do, but he had no way to stop it. The initiative was no longer in his hands. Zhang He put the advantage of the number of cavalry to the limit, making him dare not act rashly.

Wei Yan goes to chase him, but he will definitely not be able to do it. Xiahou Ba takes away more than 10,000 elite cavalry, and even if Wei Yan chases him, he will not be able to solve the problem. What is more likely to be that Xiahou Ba is waiting for his work, defeated in one fell swoop, or cooperate with the cavalry under Zhang He.

He was severely injured with his superior force. Even if Zhang He and Xiahou Ba were not in the mood to deal with Wei Yan at this moment, and were determined to deal with Wei Ba, it would be simple. Just leave three or five thousand people to block Wei Yan, and the remaining troops still had enough advantages.

Lu Xun didn't know how Xiahou Ba was going to Pengcheng to fight. In his opinion, no matter how he fought, Wei Ba had little chance of winning. Being able to save his life is the greatest success. To save his life, it doesn't depend on Wei Ba's defense.

Is it solid enough? Faced with the impact of more than 20,000 cavalrymen, even if he can't defend, he can retreat to the battlefield - it depends on whether Sima Yi will take the opportunity to take action.

If Sima Yi arrived in Pengcheng, Wei Ba would not be able to escape even if he retreated to the battlefield. His warship could sail in Sishui, but not so free on the river and sea. Sima Yi had enough ways to fix his warship in

In Sishui, a besiege was then imposed. When the warships were restricted and the cavalry were severely damaged, Wei Ba could only sit and wait for death.

Lu Xun did not want Wei Ba to die, nor did he even want Wei Ba to be severely injured. He was already too close to Wei Ba and could not get apart. More importantly, he was not optimistic about Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang's attack on the aristocratic family was too severe and did not match his

Interest orientation. Relatively speaking, Wei Ba's attitude towards the aristocratic family made him more acceptable.

So, he had to stop Sima Yi. He knew where Sima Yi was. If he set out now, it would be too late. However, time was very limited, as long as hesitated, he would have no chance when Sima Yi rushed forward to them and crossed Xiaoshan and entered the territory of Pengcheng.

In addition to stopping Sima Yi, he also had to protect the cavalry led by Wei Yan. Without enough cavalry, it would be useless even if he arrived in Pengcheng. With cavalry in hand, even if the number was not superior. With horse armor, it could be equipped at any time, the Wei army's

The cavalry should not be too presumptuous. Without cavalry to compete and restrain, the Wei army could give it a try and no longer have to worry about horse armor. Once they can do their best, even five thousand cavalry could cause him great trouble, and their power was enough

More than 20,000 infantrymen.

Therefore, he could not let Wei Yan go to help Pengcheng, but wanted to persuade him to follow him to intercept Sima Yi. As for Wei Ba, he could only rely on himself.

This is not the best way, but it is a relatively good way.

But it is different for Wei Yan. If Wei Ba died in Pengcheng because he did not go to rescue him, he would not be able to face himself.

He refused to accept Lu Xun's arrangement, but he had to admit that Lu Xun's analysis was very reasonable. If Sima Yi was not stopped, he would be stopped by Sima Yi, and would be unpredictable in the consequences of the Battle of Pengcheng.

"Wen Chang, the victory or defeat of this battle is only a few hours, and it will not exceed one day at most. This time, Zhang He took the initiative to attack, and the initiative was in his hands. Sima Yi must have received his news, otherwise

We will not leave Suiyang and head towards Pengcheng. If we continue to argue, it will be hard to say when Sima Yi is ahead of us."

Wei Yan clenched his teeth. His face turned ashen, and beads of sweat rolled down from his forehead one by one. He knew that what Lu Xun said was reasonable and more rational, but he was facing his son's life and death now, so how could he be rational?

"Let's do it." Lu Xun sighed helplessly: "You set out first. But you can't walk from Wu County. You must go north from here and pass through Xiao County. If Sima Yi has arrived in Xiao County and set up a defensive position, then

Needless to say, everything will be done, you can fight. If Sima Yi has not arrived yet, then we still have a chance. You just need to occupy the position and wait for me to arrive. As soon as I arrive, you will rush to Pengcheng for assistance."

Wei Yan calculated that this place was only forty or fifty miles away from Xiaoxian. Even if it was a infantryman, he could arrive in two hours. Compared to bypassing Wuzhou to assist Pengcheng, he could only solve a big worry by delaying more than an hour at most.

, it should be worth it, so I agreed.

Without further ado, act immediately. Wei Yan took five thousand elite cavalry to Xiaoxian.

Lu Xun then left the baggage camp behind and personally led 10,000 elite infantrymen to march in a hurry.

Sima Shi, who was setting up a formation on Xiaoshan, saw that the Han army did not go east as expected, but turned north, and couldn't help but sigh. He knew that Lu Xun had made the most correct choice, and his father Sima Yi wanted to compete for merit with Zhang He.

The plan is probably going to fail.

Qin Lang was also very surprised to get the news. However, he immediately led three thousand cavalry to chase Xiahou Ba.

...

Wei Ba raised his hand, pulled up a feather arrow nailed to the heavy armor, and gently placed it on the table.

Eight feathered arrows were neatly placed on the table.

Even if the martial soldiers held shields to protect him, the Wei army's feather arrows were still threatening Wei Ba's life. He had been hit by eight feather arrows, if it weren't for the heavy armor on his body that had extraordinary protection ability, if it weren't for the Wei army's cavalry

The range of his bow riding was limited, and he had no power outside seventy or eighty steps, so he could not be so calm at this moment.

Zhang Xiong paid the price of three or four thousand cavalry and broke through his two lines of defense, pushing the front line to his command platform. Now, only Qian was protected by Wang Shuang, Dunwu and others.

Yu Jiashi and Wu Zu, but they faced more than 3,000 Wei knights. Tian Fu died in battle, and more than a thousand surviving people consciously belonged to Zhang Xiong's command. Zhang Xiong's total strength reached nearly 7,000. Now

Less than half left.

Zhang Xiong led these more than 3,000 cavalry to attack Wei Ba's position frantically.

He was very surprised. He had known for a long time that Wei Ba's Wei family's Wuzhang was the most powerful infantryman, but when he saw this scene, he still couldn't believe his eyes. He just relied on the simple corpse formation and horse-rejecting horses

The Wei family's martial soldiers blocked the repeated attacks of the seven thousand cavalry and killed nearly four thousand cavalry one after another, but the price was less than two thousand people.

Even if the strongest armor is equipped, even if the sharpest sword is held in hand, even if the corpses in front of the formation are not conducive to the cavalry's Mercedes-Benz, even if the warship behind them is constantly firing stone bullets and arrows to support it, this is still a way to

A surprising and horrifying result.

Zhang Xiong felt indescribable fear. He shouted loudly, and he ordered the drums to beat the soldiers again and again, inspiring the soldiers to rush back and forth. He could not give these people time to think. Once they were asked to stop and think, he believed that there was no

People will develop the fighting spirit of fighting against these soldiers again.

Only by relying on the courage to continue fighting with the courage to be dazzled by the blood, either defeat or die in battle.

At this time, there is no reason at all. Even a moment of calm thinking will drive people crazy.

Zhang Xiong rushed forward at all costs, constantly rushing forward with his personal guard camp to boost morale, and constantly ordered the killing of soldiers with shaking thoughts, and strangling any possibility of collapse in the bud. He didn't know that he

How long can he last? He should have completed the mission, and he and Tian Fu have paid the price of seven thousand cavalry. He should have killed Wei Ba, at least drove him back to the warship.

However, Wei Ba was still on the shore, and his podium was covered with feather arrows, but he did not fall.

He didn't even take a step back.

He did not see Tian Fu pay tribute to Wei Ba before he died in battle, but now he really wants to pay tribute to Wei Ba. Of course, he hopes to pay tribute to him after killing Wei Ba.

Killing Wei Ba, at least forcing him to retreat into the warship, was Zhang Xiong's only idea now. He had even forgotten why he had to do this, he just wanted to do this.

He knew that those heavy armored soldiers were tired. After fighting for so long, their long swords had gaps, and their physical strength reached their limit. The speed of their sword swings was no longer as good as before. They rotated more and more frequently.

Tired, maybe the next moment, they will fall down.

"Kill!" Zhang Xiong raised his sword and roared wildly: "Kill Wei Ba, reward a thousand golds, and be granted the title of Marquis!"

The Wei army soldiers responded and shouted wildly. At this moment, no one cared whether Zhang Xiong had the power to offer a reward. They were already red in their eyes and had no time to think. Only things like Qianjin and Lihou could be a little more exciting.

.

They rushed towards the heavy armored soldiers again like the tide.

There were too many corpses in front of the formation. Even the Hu knights who lived on horseback since childhood had to carefully control the war horses so as not to trip up by the corpse and lose their hooves. At this moment, they didn't care about any formation.

Just rushing up with courage.

Wei Ba sat on the podium, looking at Zhang Xiong who was shouting in the distance, and smiled bitterly. The boy shouted fiercely, but refused to rush to the front and did not give him a chance to attack. This shows that

He has remained calm until now, and this kind of nature is very rare. If Zhang Xiong and Tian Fu rushed to the front, the battle might have ended.

Both sides were exhausted and were holding on with one breath. The tone of the Wei family's martial soldiers was loyal, while the tone of the Wei army's knights was military law. Military law was in the hands of Zhang Xiong. If Zhang Xiong could be killed, these knights would be

Will collapse immediately.

However, Zhang Xiong didn't give him this opportunity. He could only wait slowly and endure slowly.

He had already paid a huge price, five or six thousand infantrymen, including two thousand armored soldiers and martial soldiers, died here in battle. But he could not retreat, and he had to hold his position.

Because he was guarding Deng Ai's back. If he retreated to the warship, Deng Ai's generals would be exposed under the Wei army's cavalry. Without Deng Ai and the infantry led by him, he would have escaped to the warship.

He could not leave alive, Zhang He and Xiahou Ba General trapped him here, and Sima Yi would rush up without hesitation and open his bloody mouth.

He had not received any news from Lu Xun, and he didn't know where Lu Xun was or what arrangements he had made. But he believed that Lu Xun would make the safest decision. What he was worried about now was that Lu Xun could not convince his father who was eager to save his son.

He buried the five thousand cavalry in Zhang He's hands for nothing.

If that's the case, he's already defeated.
