Chapter 1839 Lu Ma competes for merit

Yan Youli looked at the Han knight who was coming in surprise and rubbed his eyes hard.

Whose subordinates do these knights have such excellent equipment? Especially the team of people coming towards us, not only are they all equipped with helmets and armors, but these armors are not styles they have seen before, and they look very energetic.

Yan Youli raised her head and looked at the battle flag in the distance. He didn't recognize this battle flag and could not guess which general was from the Han people, at least he had never seen it in Liangzhou. Could it be that the Han emperor sent some powerful generals?

When Yan Youli was confused, the Han army had already reached less than two hundred steps. The Xianbei people and Lu Bu were entangled for a long time, and the arrows they carried were almost shot. They had no time to replenish them, so they could only raise their spears, wave their swords, and fight each other in close combat.

Ma Chao took the lead, and rushed in. The spear trembled. In a blink of an eye, he picked two people in a row. The person in charge was invincible. Yulin Lang behind him saw it. His morale rose sharply. He pushed his spear and assassinated him and charged forward. Ding Dingdang's crisp sounds were endless, and screams were heard one after another. Knights on both sides were injured and dropped from horses. Some were immediately stepped on by the horses galloping, while others shrank their bodies and held their heads, begging for the mercy of heaven.

The Han army seized the initiative with its advantages of iron armor and spears and continued to advance into the depths of the Xianbei formation. Ma Chao charged forward, with no general in front of him. Under his leadership, Yulin Lang from Sanfu and Liangzhou quickly adapted to the battlefield, fighting with a shout, and being brave.

Both sides passed by and continued to move forward. Yulin Lang had limited losses. He quickly adjusted the formation through the space between the two formations, using Ma Chao as the front to form a sagittal formation. Most of the knights saw blood, but no one was afraid, but they became even more excited and their blood surged.

"How?" Ma Chao raised his arm, wiped the blood from his face, and shouted: "Can you still fight?"

"Yes!" Yulin Lang replied with a loud bang.

Ma Chao laughed. "Then let's kill for a while and let them see who is the real elite."

"Here!"

"Kill!" Ma Chao raised his head, looked at the situation on the battlefield, found the battle flag with the wild wolf logo, turned the horse's head, adjusted the direction, and killed Yan Youli. Yulin Lang followed closely behind, with murderous aura and a rainbow of morale.

The emperor followed Ma Chao and watched Ma Chao confront the enemy. After a while, Xianbei knights rushed out of Ma Chao's formation and came towards him. The emperor was a little nervous and raised the spear in his hand. Just as he was about to speak, a string sounded in his ear. A feather arrow broke through the wind and flew dozens of steps. He rushed in the chest of the Xianbei knight who was rushing in front. The knight's body shook and collided with a Yulin Lang. Yulin Lang lifted his spear and knocked him down.

"Boom!" The two sides intertwined, and countless figures rushed towards each other quickly. Spears and swords rose and fell one after another. The sound of horse hooves and shouts of killing instantly drowned the emperor. The emperor's eyes were in chaos, and he could not see the other person's appearance clearly. He roared in his ears and could not hear what the sound was. He held the spear, but he didn't have time to stab it out, and he only knew to rush forward with the team.

"Your Majesty, be careful!" Lu Xiaohuan reached out to hold the emperor's shoulder and loudly reminded the emperor. Seeing that the emperor's face was pale and his body was getting bigger and bigger, let alone killing the enemy, he might even fall off the horse's back if he accidentally.

"Oh, oh." The emperor suddenly woke up, then felt ashamed, and clamped his legs on his belly. He calmed down, took two deep breaths, forced himself to calm down, and recalled the experience he had accumulated in Shanglinyuan's military performance over the years.

King Yue of Hu Ben rushed to the emperor with a dozen Hu Ben Lang. As the emperor's close servants, they also equipped the best armor. Wang Yue also carried a spear in his hand. He was famous for his swordsmanship and the spear was also good. He killed two Xianbei knights who rushed to the emperor in a row, cleanly and neatly, and killed them with one blow. Under their protection, although the emperor was in the formation, there were not many opportunities to connect with the Xianbei knights. Only sporadic arrows shot, and the armor sounded, and an arrow shot into the gap of the armor, but was blocked by the golden silk and brocade armor inside and could not go deeper.

The emperor quickly calmed down and observed the situation in front of him.

There were people in front of him, and he could only see the backs of Yulinlang and Hubanglang, but he could not see the situation of the enemy opposite. He could only infer the situation of both sides from the movement of the battle flag. In front of him was more than a dozen Hubanglang, and further forward was Yulinlang. Ma Chao's battle flag was about two hundred steps in front. Judging from the movement speed and the density of the flag, there should be little loss.

Huangfu Song was right. As for the frontal assault, the Han army equipped with iron armor and spears had obvious advantages. The Yulin Cavalry equipped with Yang Biao's 300 million yuan was a well-deserved elite. With a warrior like Ma Chao rushing in front, it was enough to crush a considerable number of opponents.

"Zi Yang, are you injured?" The emperor was relieved and finally had time to pay attention to Liu Ye around him.

"No." Liu Ye's face was also a little pale, and he looked even more nervous than the emperor. When the emperor was performing military service in Shanglinyuan, he was plagued by official duties and occasionally watched, and rarely had the opportunity to go on the battlefield. He was in such a scene all at once and met the enemy at close range. He was inevitably a little out of control. He looked worse than Lu Xiaohuan and Wang Yi came to calm down.

Fortunately, Yulin Lang set up a dense formation in front of the emperor, forcing the Xianbei people to separate to the sides, and he was finally in danger.

"Follow me!" The emperor laughed twice. Although the laughter was a little dry, his heroic spirit was not weak. He raised his spear again and ordered to speed up.

The sound of war drums erupted again, and the Yulin cavalry hugged the emperor and rushed forward.

Seeing that the Han army's knights were well equipped and their morale was high, Yan Youli felt a little guilty. When he saw Ma Chao's battle flag rushing towards him, he felt even more uneasy. He originally thought that Lu Bu was the main general, but now it seems that Lu Bu can only be considered a forward at most. What kind of person can use Lu Bu as a forward? Yan Youli can't guess it thoroughly, but he believes that these knights are all elite Han army. If he fights hard, his losses will be great and he may even suffer severe damage.

Yan Youli issued an order to retreat without hesitation. Fight when it is profitable, and leave when it is disadvantageous. This is the reason that the Xianbei people have been accustomed to since childhood and have no easy consideration.

With the sound of the horn, the Xianbei Knights gave up the attack and began to reorganize their formation and gradually left the battlefield.

Hearing the sound of the trumpet of the retreat of the Xianbei people, Lu Bu and Ma Chao stepped up their attacks and rushed to Yan Youli from different directions. Cheng Gongying and Jiang Xu led their troops to cut the Xianbei people's formation, intending to rush forward and cut off Yan Youli's retreat. Seven or eight thousand Han knights interspered and cut through the Xianbei people's formation, and their momentum was unstoppable.

In just half an hour, the Xianbei people's formation was killed in chaos, and the sound of trumpets for help kept ringing. Yan Youli looked at Ma Chao and Lu Bu chasing him, and was a little panicked, fearing that he would be intercepted if he retreated slowly. While ordering the entire army to retreat, he ran wildly and broke through under the protection of his personal guards.

The battle was unexpectedly smooth, and the emperor immediately ordered a pursuit to expand the results. The Han army dispersed and fought on a unit of thousands of cavalry to chase and kill the Xianbei soldiers. Cheng Gongying and Jiang Xu chased the fiercest, rushed to the front, and killed the Xianbei people.

Lu Bu rushed to the emperor. He was covered in blood, his voice was a little hoarse, but his mental state was in excellent condition. When he saw the emperor, he laughed and said, "Your Majesty is brave and has experienced the battlefield personally. Since the Han Dynasty, only Emperor Gao and Emperor Guangwu can do this."

The first battle won, and the emperor was in a good mood. He smiled and said a few humble words. Lu Xiaohuan couldn't help but raise his bow excitedly. "Aweng, I shot and killed seven Xianbei people."

"Good person, I am worthy of being my daughter of Lu Bu." Lu Bu patted Lu Xiaohuan's shoulder and looked up and down at Lu Xiaohuan. There were two arrows on Lu Xiaohuan's back and before they could pull them down, they stood up like wings. Lu Bu pulled out the arrow and looked at the arrow. When he saw that the arrow was bloodless, he breathed a sigh of relief. "Are you injured?"

Lu Xiaohuan patted his chest. "No. How could he be injured if there is the armor given by His Majesty? Ah Weng, who is better than Sun Shangxiang, do you think I am or Sun Shangxiang?"

Lu Bu laughed. "Of course my daughter is amazing."

Before he finished speaking, Ma Chao's voice came from behind him. "Mr. Wen is such a bad word. In the battle of Dashi, Sun Shangxiang followed the Marquis of Wu to attack the formation and shot Gongsun Mo in the face of the battle. Concubine Lu shot seven people in the face of the battle. It was indeed good, but Sun Shangxiang was still a little far away."

Lu Bu was somber at that time. Ma Chao ignored him, turned over and dismounted, took out a head from the archer's pouch, and came to the emperor. "Your Majesty, I have killed one thousand commanders, and I will give you my Majesty."

The emperor looked at the ferocious hair, especially the bloody neck, and was a little disgusting. However, he also knew that Ma Chao was competing with Lu Bu. Lu Bu killed a Xianbei tribe in the first battle and received his reward. Ma Chao offered his head at this time, so he naturally had to receive the same treatment.

"Ma Qing is brave and like Marquis Wen, he is a pillar of the court. Keep up with his efforts."

"Now!" Ma Chao was a little regretful. The emperor called him Ma Qing, but Lu Bu was called Wen Hou, and he looked at Lu Bu at a higher glance. There was nothing he could do about it. Lu Bu killed the Xianbei master, and he killed only a commander of a thousand men, at best a little handsome man. Of course, the more important reason was that Lu Xiaohuan was Lu Bu's daughter. But it didn't matter. The battle was not over yet, so who could laugh to the end. "Your Majesty, the people who were abducted by the Xianbei people have not been rescued yet. Do you continue to pursue?"

Liu Ye coughed: "General Ma, Your Majesty has his own arrangements, don't be too anxious."

Ma Chao smiled and bowed, "Let's be right. I don't need to worry if you have your Majesty's arrangements. Besides, the people who were captured are the people of Bingzhou, so it should be urgent for the time being that Marquis Wen should be anxious first. Marquis Wen, are you right?"

Lu Bu was furious. "Ma Mengqi, the people of Bingzhou are also people of the court, not my Lu Bu's troops. What do you mean?"

Ma Chao spread his hands. "Wen Hou, why are you? I didn't say anything. It's true that the people of Bingzhou are the people of the court, but how many of those people have ever seen the emperor? They were rescued by you first, and then abandoned by you. Do you think they resent the emperor or you resent the emperor?"

"You..." Lu Bu was speechless and did not dare to answer easily. There was a trap in Ma Chao's words, and no matter how he answered it correctly.

The emperor scratched his head a little. The Bingliang people were not dealing with each other, and they were even more dissatisfied with each other. It is said that they had fought in private and now they compete on the battlefield. It is really troublesome. However, Ma Chao was right. Although he defeated the Xianbei people, the people could not be considered a victory before they could be saved.

"Lingjun, what do you think?"

Liu Ye was prepared. "To follow Lingwu Valley as the limit, continue to pursue, save the people, seize the cattle and sheep of the Xianbei people for food, and fight quickly." He glanced at Lu Bu and Ma Chao and smiled slightly. "Two lords, you are the minions of Your Majesty. You should be united in the foreign world. You can't fight each other. Although the Xianbei people were defeated, the main evil was not killed. The battle was not over yet. The two should continue to work hard."
