Chapter 596
Guan Yu led the army all the way forward, and it took only an hour to arrive at Paomaping.

This is a rare flat land, the terrain is very open, even if it is used for cavalry combat, there is no problem. Although Guan Yu has only [-] cavalry, if it can be used well, it can definitely play a vital role in the battle situation. Turn the tide of battle at critical moments.

Because of this, although the road was difficult, Guan Yu insisted on bringing these two thousand cavalry all the way from Chengdu.

"General, the enemy army has been spotted ahead." At this moment, the spy stepped forward and said to Guan Yu.

Guan Yu nodded when he heard the words, and then ordered: "All soldiers, get ready to attack!"

Following Guan Yu's order, the soldiers drew their swords out of their sheaths, drew their bows and arrows, and were ready to go. The entire army immediately showed a chilling aura.

Not long after, only the sound of a desolate horn came from the dense forest not far away, followed by a strange shouting sound.

"Hey, are the bandit soldiers yelling for business?" Zhou Cang said with a smile after hearing the yelling of the barbarians on the opposite side.

In fact, it wasn't that Zhou Cang didn't know that things were a little weird, but he still said this in order to ease the atmosphere.

Immediately, the surrounding soldiers all burst into laughter.

However, Yu Fan and Guan Ping were on guard. In their opinion, the other party must be driving wild beasts by doing this, so Guan Ping ordered the archers to draw their bowstrings and stand by.

However, at this moment, a strong wind suddenly blew up, blowing up flying sand and rocks, hitting people's faces with pain, and the most important thing was that almost everyone couldn't open their eyes at this time.

Immediately afterwards, the roars of the ferocious beasts came, and the roars of the beasts frightened the horses, and they fell to the ground, without the strength to stand up. It is a joke that the cavalry can play a role in this situation. .

"General, the current situation is deceitful. The enemy can control the strong wind, and there are fierce beasts behind us. Our combat power can't be used at all. Let's retreat quickly."

Seeing this scene, Yu Fan hurried to Guan Yu and persuaded him loudly.

Naturally he understands the situation, but he knows even more that their retreat is very narrow. If they order to retreat at this time, the soldiers will be in chaos to fight for the retreat. At that time, their own side may be defeated even faster.

What's more, Guan Yu didn't want to part with the two thousand cavalry. If he retreated, the two thousand cavalry would probably be lost.

Therefore, after thinking about it, Guan Yu ordered: "The cavalry soldiers pulled their horses and retreated first. The infantry stood guard at the front. The archers obeyed my order and shot arrows high into the sky. You don't need many hits, just shoot hard." That's enough. Yide, Ping'er, Zhou Cang, and the sons of the pro-barracks, stay at the front with me, and we must not let the bandit soldiers advance any further in this battle!"

"promise!"

After listening to Guan Yu's order, the cavalry officers and soldiers knew that not only they could not help, but they would become a drag on the whole army, so they dragged their horses desperately and retreated little by little, while the infantry came to the front and used their knives and guns They formed a solid front with shields to prevent the enemy's beast team from advancing, and the archers desperately pulled their bows and shot arrows. Although these feather arrows did not cause much damage, they were not useless. Some beasts suffered from feather arrows. After the attack, due to the pain, they did not dare to move forward, and a few beasts started to go berserk, scurrying around in the beast team of the barbarians, causing chaos in the team.

Of course, because of the appeasement of those fierce beast owners, the chaos was only temporary and partial, and did not have much impact, but it also made the barbarians on the opposite side very busy, and even some of them appeared. Incidents of beasts hurting people.

Fortunately, the barbarians are also afraid of the Han army's formation like a forest of swords and guns, so although King Mulu yelled loudly, these barbarians and beasts did not dare to rush forward, especially when the few beasts that rushed to the front were killed. After Guan Yu and Zhang Fei unleashed Qinglong Yanyue Saber and Zhangba Snake Spear to kill them quickly, the barbarian soldiers were even more afraid and did not dare to step forward easily.

However, the battle situation did not end there. After all, with these ferocious beasts around, the war horses dare not stand up, let alone fight?This resulted in the immediate elimination of the two thousand cavalry, and the current formation of the infantry was only for defense. If the soldiers were allowed to attack thousands of beasts, it would be tantamount to seeking death.At the same time, the evil wind created by King Mulu was still there, and the soldiers couldn't open their eyes at all, even if they really wanted to fight, it was impossible.

"Hey, although I was unwilling, I had no choice but to retreat. I was too careless to lose this game in front of such a mob. I really failed King Qin's entrustment." Regarding the battle situation, Guan Yu smiled wryly in his heart, how many times has he been defeated because of underestimating the enemy?How many times have you even put your life in danger because of it?But I still don't change my temper, I am really ashamed.

At this time, Zhang Fei said to Zhang Fei beside him: "Second brother, this time even the younger brother can't stand it anymore. Mr. Yu Fan tried to persuade him before, and there was an order from King Qin to ask the second brother to wait for a while, but the second brother just refused to listen." Fortunately, there are still a lot of strong generals in our army, Ping'er was on guard in advance, and the archers still have a certain deterrent force, which led to our not being completely defeated in this battle. But if you continue like this, second brother , sooner or later, I will regret it later. You don’t know that even my younger brother has made up his mind to quit drinking. Although there are countless Wuliangye fine wines in King Qin’s camp, but for so many days, as long as my younger brother is in the army, he will definitely drink alcohol. Even the younger brother can change without drinking, so can't the second brother change it?"

"Hey, what the third brother said is that I will definitely change in the future, and I will never be like before. In fact, to be honest, I became aggressive because of Yu Fan's previous sentence that the king of Mulu can't be defeated unless he is the king of Qin. I thought that my combat power was enough to defeat the opponent, but I didn't expect that there were also capable people in the enemy army, who took advantage of the favorable location to block our army here, and forced them to use the methods of demon and beast taming I will retire from the army, and I will keep this lesson in mind in the future, and will never underestimate the enemy under any circumstances."

Guan Yu had a sneer on his face, but he felt a deep sense of shame in his heart, and at the same time a little nervous. He really didn't know how to explain this matter after seeing Liu He later?
"Hehe, I call it self-inflicted. When I meet the King of Qin, even if he punishes me, I deserve it, and I definitely can't be wronged." Guan Yu shook his head and said self-deprecatingly.
