Chapter 61: The armies clashed and crushed each other with great force!
Ji Hao actually didn't want to fight Liu Bei head-on, because as long as there was a war, there would be casualties. The battlefield was not a child's play. Even if there was a huge disparity in strength, with overwhelming numbers, one could kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred of one's own.

Not to mention, he has always been using elite troops and does not have an advantage in numbers.

Therefore, we have always sought stability.

But when it is time to fight, he will fight decisively and will never hesitate - Cao Cao has not yet captured Xia Pi, and now is not the time to have a decisive battle with Liu Bei, but Zhao Zilong cannot be saved, and the cement factory cannot be lost.

Now we meet on a narrow road, and we have to fight even if we don't want to.

Otherwise it would not be prudent but cowardly and would shake the morale of the troops.

Therefore, after Liu Bei led his army, Ji Hao decisively ordered a charge. He and Zhao Yun led 10,000 Haotian troops to rush straight to Liu Bei, ignoring even Lu Bu, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

The three of them were very confused about this at first.

During the fight, one of your men suddenly runs away. If you lead your troops to charge, aren't you afraid that we will rush into your army, seize your flag, and disrupt your formation?
However, after taking a look at the army behind him, Lu Bu turned around and ran, fleeing directly into the forest. Guan Yu raised his sword and wanted to charge into the battle, but was stopped by Zhang Fei, who pulled his horse's head out of the way.

This made Guan Yu confused.

But soon, when he saw the soldiers shooting crossbow arrows at close range, Guan Yu understood: It was useless to charge against the Haotian Army because their equipment was too sophisticated!
There are no wrist guards on the arms, but crossbow arrows are used as wrist guards!

First fire a round of bows and arrows at a long distance, then fire a round of crossbow arrows at a close distance. No matter what the enemy does, use two rounds of shooting to deal damage first - if Lu Bu and his two men do not retreat, what will greet them will be a volley of powerful crossbows.

Even with the martial arts of these three people, there is only one possibility of being pierced by thousands of arrows.

If Zhang Fei hadn’t pulled that move, Guan Yu would have been killed!
"Ten thousand soldiers, all wearing armor, equipped with strong bows and crossbows. With such excellent equipment, it's no wonder that Ji Chengtian has only had 40,000 soldiers. He wants quality, not quantity!"

Guan Yu suddenly felt a little worried.

My eldest brother has joined forces with Yuan Shu and Lu Bu. Is an army of 300,000 really an advantage?
"Don't be stunned. The excellent equipment is just an appearance. The truly terrifying thing is the cavalry themselves!" Lu Bu said, "Although the arrows they shot were black and dense, they were neat and orderly, and the attack directions were not chaotic. Moreover, when charging, they could shoot arrows, release crossbows, and draw swords with ease. This is not something that ordinary soldiers can do. This is already the level of a third-rate general. If all of them were like this, I really can't imagine what a strong army they would be!"

After saying this, he rode back to his own army and personally took up the command with the flag.

No further charge.

Because if someone else takes command, it would be too easy for him to lose command when facing Ji Hao and Zhao Yun.

"Why think so much? Soldiers of the Yan camp, follow me and kill them!" Zhang Fei said to his personal soldiers who had already rushed up. Guan Yu also called on his soldiers and horses, "Guan camp, charge!"

Fighting against generals is just a common man's courage. Whether a general is a good general in the world depends on how he uses his troops.

In short, since they couldn't win in a one-on-one duel, they also wanted to compete with Ji Hao in terms of leading troops.

But, doesn’t Ji Hao know how to lead troops?

"Zilong, two dragons emerge from the water!" Ji Hao shouted.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zilong immediately grabbed the commander's flag and gave instructions, separating 5,000 of Ji Hao's troops - the two of them each led 5,000 soldiers and charged forward, like two long dragons, supporting each other and strangling Liu Bei's army.

Take advantage of every opportunity and attack the weak points.

At the first contact, it rushed straight into the army with unstoppable force.

Wherever he goes, he kills gods and Buddhas.

"How can it be so swift?" Liu Bei was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly waved his flag, ordering Guan and Zhang to charge in a roundabout way to disrupt the formation of Ji Hao's army.

However, when they rushed over, they found that the soldiers' counterattack was quite fierce.

From a distance, shoot arrows in the gap.

After getting close, they could still wield their weapons to resist. Although Guan and Zhang killed one at a time, that was all. Two top-notch warriors who could defeat 10,000 enemies, if they let go and killed, they could only kill a hundred people in one breath.

The battle record was strong, but the opponent showed no fear and organized a counterattack in an orderly manner.

Many people even had their hearts pierced, and before they died, they were stabbed and shot with arrows by Guan and Zhang, causing their injuries, which were already slightly injured, to become even worse.

There is a vague feeling of powerlessness, like a mayfly trying to shake a tree.

This was the first time they met.

"Set up the formation, set up the formation to fight. Where is the Nine-Man Linked Formation that you usually practice? Use them all and drive them out!" Yuan Shu shouted from the other side.

However, when Ji Hao and Zhao Yun led their troops to charge in, his army of more than 100,000 was shattered at the first touch.

His soldiers attacked the enemy but could not break their armor.

Ji Hao's soldiers chopped the enemies in half with their swords. Some of them, whose horses were injured, were still able to dismount and fight back. Their swords were so sharp that they could cut both the horses and the men in half.

Yuan Shu's face turned green. "Are you made of paper? Come on, don't run!"

But the more he spoke, the more chaotic his army became.

On the contrary, Lu Bu had fewer soldiers and was easier to command. He waved his military flags and arranged the Xianzhen Camp to resist, and for the first time blocked the charge of Ji Hao's army.

But before they had time to be happy, Ji Hao changed "Double Dragons" into "Four Gates".

Strangled Liu Bei's army.

Moreover, while changing the formation, the Haotian Army could move left and right, and five thousand men could collide head-on with five thousand men without affecting each other, but they could kill all the nearby enemy troops without leaving a single piece of armor behind.

"Zilong, take the command. I'm Lu Bu, and you're Liu Bei!"

After another loud shout, Ji Hao rushed straight towards Lu Bu.

And Zhao Yun rushed towards Liu Bei.

Attack again.

But this time, when Liu Bei wanted to resist on the ground, Zhao Yun shot an arrow and forced him to stand up. Then he swept his spear and knocked him away with the double-edged sword.

The next moment he drew the bow again.

As soon as the arrow was shot out, there was a click and the general's flag broke directly!

On the other side, Ji Hao did not rush up to fight with Lu Bu, but picked up soldiers from a distance and threw them at Lu Bu. That was not a big pressure for Lu Bu, and he swept them away with a slap of Fang Tian Hua Ji.

But as I was filming, I realized something was wrong.

The commander's flag was not taken away, but the soldiers under his command gradually retreated.

Don't dare to fight.

Throwing guns at people directly is too oppressive. The personal guards led by Ji Hao also put too much pressure on the opposing soldiers - their equipment and quality are overwhelming, like a tiger among a flock of sheep. How can they fight?

"All of their soldiers' swords are made of fine steel that has been tempered a hundred times. It's incredible!"

Zhang Fei swung his 18-foot-long snake spear but was unable to cut off the soldier's weapon.

Guan Yu was also confused.

As his strength faded, he gradually became unable to kill his enemies, and his sword often got stuck on the armor of the soldiers.

That's a soldier!

Not an enemy general!

"It's too difficult to kill them. Besides, don't they know how to be afraid?"

"Big brother is in danger, go save him!"

As they were killing, they found that their army was in chaos and was chasing Liu Bei.

From time to time, someone shouted "kill".

"The one with the long arms is Liu Bei!"

"The one with the big ears is Liu Bei!"

Fortunately, Guan and Zhang quickly caught up and stopped Zhao Yun.

But when Liu Bei looked back, he found that his army had already been in chaos, and most of the soldiers had begun to flee in all directions. He had been defeated and it was difficult to organize any resistance.

Yuan Shu, with the remaining troops, and with the help of Sun Ce, desperately fled southward, wanting to return home.

Lu Bu also retreated with his Xianzhen Camp and gave up the counterattack.

"Ten thousand cavalrymen defeated my army of three hundred thousand? How could there be such an incredibly powerful army as the 'Haotian Army' in this world?" Liu Bei shouted.

At this time, Ji Hao had freed his hands and chased after him.

Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Is this a strong army? The real strong army has not yet been assembled!"
