【Chapter 584】Chapter 584

To the south of the valley, three hundred steps away from the barbarian army, is the battle formation of the Han army.

Compared with the large and powerful barbarian army battle formation, the Han army battle formation seemed weak, with only 40,000 troops.

However, what is extremely conspicuous is that the 40,000 Han troops were all war cavalry and there were no infantry. At least there were no infantry in the barbarians' sight.

Forty thousand Han cavalry formed a densely-secret goose-shaped formation, without obvious left and right wings, nor did they seize the open land and arrange troops like the barbarian army. Instead, they were guarding the entrance of the valley south of the Qinglang Valley, as if they were leaving a way out for themselves in advance. If they were defeated by the barbarian army, they could turn around and escape.

In front of the battle formation, the main general Zhou Yu was alone and stopped in front of the formation, squinted his eyes slightly and stared at the barbarian army formation in front of him.

The so-called battle formation is not a very profound and obscure Qimen Dunjia, but a very simple and common array to fight against the enemy. After all, more than 100,000 troops must have a formation when they go to war, otherwise it will be crowded together, so what is the system?

At this moment, Zhou Yu, who was located in front of the army, was also fully armed, and he was a general who was ready to fight at any time.

But he saw him wearing golden armor, an eagle helmet, a black battle robe, a tiger-patterned belt, a five-foot black iron sword, and a cloud boot. He was majestic and heroic, majestic and mighty, and his aura was swallowed by mountains and rivers. Under his seat, a black and fat horse with a body length of one meter and a shoulder height of nearly one meter was strong and powerful. The four hooves were strong and powerful, and the mane was smooth and elegant, and the black shiny one could tell. There were two spirals on both sides of the horse, which were symmetrical on the left and right. The center of the spiral was as big as an adult fist. There were circles of thick black cocoons like scales around the spiral, which could protect the internal organs of the abdomen from external forces.

This is a truly Thousand Mile Divine Horse, born with a body protection image, and a very aggressive horse, which is difficult to tame. However, once tamed, this horse is undoubtedly the most loyal and capable arm of a general on the battlefield. It can not only gallop on the battlefield, but also help its master attack the enemy. Its combat power is not inferior to that of a close-fitting personal guard, and it is even better.

The armor on Zhou Yu was exactly the same as Li Li's golden armor. The difference between the two was that Li Li's armor was repeatedly reinforced by craftsmen and his defense was strengthened. In addition, there was a set of golden dragon soft armor that was invulnerable to swords and guns in the golden armor. In addition, the two armors were of the same origin, and were both top-quality armor collected by the Ling Emperor in the Great Inner Treasury, with only 500 sets in total. All of them were obtained by Li Ru and then given to Li Li.

Originally, Li Li planned to screen a group of soldiers with strong martial arts and loyalty, and after strict training, they were given golden armor and formed a guard army, but unfortunately they were unable to take practical actions and were stranded to this day. Now there are only a dozen generals in the Xiliang army with golden armor. Among them, the chief generals of each battalion have one set, military advisor Jia Xu, Shangshu Ling Li Xuan and Shizhong Li Ru, each with one set, plus the new Situ Li Jue, no one can win such an honor.

Two years later, a general who obtained the golden armor finally appeared, and he also received a good horse. This shows that Li Li really appreciated Zhou Yu very much. He was very kind and treated him very well. You should know that Lu Su and Guo Jia have not received such rewards at present, but Zhou Yu has a armored BMW. If you add the meteorite iron spear about two meters long in his hand at this moment, it can be said that it is full of all armored magic weapons and divine horses that are hard to find. Any equipment that Li Li can give him will almost all be given.

It is rare in the world that the generals under his command can do this. If they come to the door for their subordinates to propose marriage and eventually get a peerless beauty, then there is only Li Li in the world so far. Only Zhou Yu is the only one who has received this favor. Of course, Li Li's younger brother Li Xian is not listed here. After all, they are the same mother and Li Li, as the eldest brother, should take care of his younger brother to start a family and protect his safety.

The generals who stopped behind Zhou Yu were slightly inferior to the barbarian army, but their strength was not inferior to those of the barbarian generals behind Yu Fuluo. From left to right, they were: He Man, the deputy general Liang Xing, the deputy general Hu Cheer, the central general Cao Xing, the vanguard general Zhang Liao, the deputy general of the central army, the commander of the Hu Ben camp, Dian Wei, the deputy commander Taru, Li Meng, the deputy commander Xu Chu, and the rear army's baggage officer Chen Daohe County Officer Huan Yi. In addition, there was another person who made an exception to wear armor and entered the front of the formation. He stopped by Huan Yi. This person was Duan Wei, Duan Zhongming, who had been demoted to the garrison commander from the position of deputy commander of the Hu Ben camp.

If you count carefully, the generals behind Zhou Yu are no less than those of the Barbarian generals. However, the reason why the Han army's formation is not as powerful as the Barbarian army is because there are three commanders standing side by side in front of the Barbarian army, while Zhou Yu only has one of them standing in front of the formation, which makes him seem weak.

There were two people behind a row of generals who seemed a little out of place. They were not wearing armor, but still wearing Confucian robes, and stood among the cavalry on war horses as eye-catching as if standing out from a flock of cranes. It goes without saying that these two were Lu Su, the chief clerk of the army, and the military advisor Fa Zheng who came later.

—————————————————

At three o'clock in the sun, the two armies in the Qinglang Valley faced off.

After the barbarian army was finished, he saw Yu Furoce stepping forward, walked to the two armies, and shouted loudly, "Where is the Han general Zhou Yu? Go forward and answer!"

It is obvious that Zhou Yu stood opposite Fu Luo, but he turned a blind eye to him, and his intention was to despise Zhou Yu and ask questions knowingly.

Don’t think that the barbarian army is brave but not scheming. It is important to know that these barbarian generals who can ascend to the position of leader in troubled times are not only brave but also scheming people, otherwise they would not be able to survive now. This is the case with Yu Fuluo in front of the two armies. He ignored Zhou Yu, shouted loudly, and deliberately defamed Zhou Yu in order to suppress the morale of the Han army, because Zhou Yu was the chief general of the Han army.

Da da da da da!

Zhou Yu rode a horse out of the formation, ran to the front of the formation in a few breaths, stopped fifty steps away from Yu Fuluo, and immediately said sternly: "The barbarian thief does not have to show off his verbal advantage. Zhou Yu is here, what are you doing to me?"

"Oh? So you are Zhou Yu!" Yu Fuluo looked up at Zhou Yu, pretending to realize suddenly: "I thought you were the vanguard of the Han army in three battles before, but I didn't expect you to be the commander of the Han army!"

After saying a sarcastic sentence, Yu Fuluo said, "Tsk tsk tsk! It seems that Li Li's subordinates are really useless. He actually asked you, a young man, to lead the army to the war. It was beyond my expectations!"

"Hmph!" Zhou Yu snorted coldly with a gloomy face, squinting his eyes and glaring at Fuluo. He wanted to curse and vent his hatred in his heart. But when he spoke, he swallowed it, kept silent, staring at Yu Fuluo's slightly yellow cheeks. His mind turned sharply and thought.

Yu Fuluo was different from ordinary barbarian leaders. He lived in the Han area for a long time and knew very well about the customs and etiquette of the Han people. Therefore, he knew that there was no need to curse in front of the formation, and he knew very well which sentences could not only make Zhou Yu angry, but also attack the momentum of the Han army.

The facts were just as he thought. A word of "little white face" made Zhou Yu full of anger. A few squeaks of his mouth can make the Han army soldiers full of righteous indignation.

However, what surprised Yu Fuluo was that Zhou Yu, who was full of anger, did not speak ill of harsh words, but instead glared at him without saying a word, as if he was not in a hurry to rush over.

That's right. Yu Fuluo came prepared for the formation this time, not just shouting and cursing, showing off his verbal advantage. Just in front of the formation, he discovered that although Zhou Yu was wearing golden armor, he was actually a white-faced scholar. Even if he could be literary and martial, he would probably not be much better at martial arts. In view of this, he pissed Zhou Yu in a few words after riding his horse. If Zhou Yu rushed over without knowing how to live or die, he could take advantage of the situation to capture Zhou Yu, and he would win this battle without fighting.

Unfortunately, Zhou Yu endured his anger and did not say a word, which disappointed Yu Fuluo and did not dare to act rashly.

Zhou Yu didn't know what Yu Fuluo thought, otherwise he might have rushed over as Yu Fuluo wanted. But the result must not be what Yu Fuluo thought. On the contrary, Zhou Yu was fully capable of capturing Yu Fuluo alive. However, if Yu Fuluo was captured, the barbarian army behind him would not retreat, but instead rushed up. This situation was not what Zhou Yu wanted. Yu Fuluo could not die yet. He still had great value. Therefore, Zhou Yu never thought of capturing Yu Fuluo alive in surprise in front of the formation, without any thought, so he naturally would not have thought that Yu Fuluo actually planned to capture him and use this to threaten the Han army to submit.

"You are trying to anger me, but I am afraid it's a wishful thinking. It's too self-righteous. I, Zhou Yu, is young, but I have already reached the top and are no longer an impulsive ignorant boy. Otherwise, my lord would not have handed over all tens of thousands of troops to me!" Paying attention to Yu Fuluo's eyes flashing, Zhou Yu said with disdain.

"Is that so? I can't tell that you are young but have some ability. I underestimated you before." Yu Fuluo said in a deep voice with an unhappy expression.

Zhou Yu sneered when he heard this, "It's too much. The same thing is said. My lord sent me to fight against the barbarians, so there is naturally a reason for my lord. How can you understand the barbarian thief like you?"

"Hmph, don't be crazy!" Yu Fuluo was furious when he heard this and said sternly: "Open your eyes and see clearly that there are more than 100,000 cavalry under the command of this Shanyu, and how many Han troops are behind you, just 40,000 defeated troops. Our army is three times that of you. As long as I raise my hand, I will definitely kill you and you will die without a place to die!"

"Oh, is this true? Then you wave your hand and let me see how the barbarian thieves can destroy our army?" Zhou Yu sneered disdainfully.

"How dare you be so arrogant!" Looking at Zhou Yu's sarcastic smile on his face, Yu Fuluo's chest was full of anger, and he was so angry that he no longer had the intention to anger Zhou Yu. He immediately cursed: "I'm not dry and I'm not talking nonsense. Don't try my best to show off my verbal advantage. Do you dare to fight me?"

"Uh!" Zhou Yu was stunned when he heard this, and said with his own way: "Tsk tsk tsk tsk! You are so old, I will win the battle with you. In the future, someone will say that I bully the weak and bully the elderly. What's more, just because you are not qualified to fight me!"

After saying that, Zhou Yu immediately pulled back and said loudly: "Challenge in front of the barbarian thief, who will take this thief with me?"

"Hao———Taoda!"

"Don't let the barbarian thief go wild, Duan Wei comes to fight you!" Zhou Yu had not finished speaking, but saw a horse leaping out of the horse in front of the formation and heading straight for the formation. After a closer look, Duan Wei was desperate to try to make meritorious contributions. When the two horses were wrong, Zhou Yu whispered: "Remember to leave Fuluo's life, I will have great use in the future!"
