As the sun rose, the morning mist gradually dissipated, and Lu Kang finally could see the whole picture of the battlefield clearly. The battlefield was full of corpses, which were shocking.

Lu Shi and Yu Zan have launched many attacks, but they have never been able to break through the Wei army's defense line, and there are great casualties. Most of the corpses on the battlefield are from the Wu army.

This is no wonder that the Wu army is weak. After several days of marching, the Wu army was already exhausted and its combat power was sharply reduced. But they were facing the Wei army's cavalry team. Originally, infantry did not have any advantage against the cavalry. At this moment, the Wu army was at the weakest time, and it was even more impossible to fight. Therefore, after a long period of fierce fighting, the Wu army was unable to move forward and break through the Wei army's blockade.

The Wu army originally thought that the main force of the Wei army was behind him, and the Wei army intercepted in front must be a partial army, and there would not be many troops. As long as the Wu army fought bravely, they would definitely be able to break through the Wei army's blockade and fight for a bloody path.

Even Lu Kang thought so. Even if the Wei army had a big appetite and wanted to eat all the Wu army in one fell swoop, it was not easy to get around the Wu army. They had to at least twice as far away.

Therefore, Lu Kang still had a certain confidence in breaking through, believing that as long as the Wu army could fight more bravely and fiercely, it would not be difficult to break through the Wei army's defense line.

But after the fog receded, Lu Kang stood on a high ground and stood far away. Then he found that the Wei army had more cavalry than he had imagined, and there were at least five or six thousand people. There were not many roads for the Wu army to retreat, and all of these roads were blocked by the Wei army's cavalry. It was not easy for the Wu army to break out!

But this cavalry was very strange. The Wei army's cavalry was divided into two types, one was heavy armored cavalry and the other was light armored cavalry. The heavy armored cavalry was like a camp. All the riders and war horses were equipped with thick armor and armed to their teeth.

Another type of light armored cavalry is represented by the Knight Camp. They are wearing cowhide armor and are known for their flexibility and maneuverability.

No matter what, all the cavalry of the Wei army were equipped with armor, but the weight was different. However, the cavalry that appeared in front of us was wearing cloth clothes and not even a helmet. What is the origin of this cavalry?

Judging from the size of the Wei cavalry, it is not too small. The team of five or six thousand people is almost half a battalion, but Lu Kang hasn't heard of which battalion in Wei State belongs to a commoner.

However, although this Wei cavalry was dressed strangely, it did not affect their combat effectiveness at all. Moreover, they were more brave and flexible than ordinary cavalry, and they were decisive in killing countless people.

This Wei army seemed to know their weakness. Without armor, the defense would definitely be much weaker. In order to avoid the attack of the Wu army's bow and arrows, these Wei army were very thieves. They kept as close as possible to the distance between them and the Wu army and always maintained a state of melee. Even if the Wu army wanted to shoot with bows and arrows, because the troops from both sides were always entangled, once the Wu army shot arrows, it is very likely that they would accidentally hurt their people. Therefore, although these archers had already pulled the bow and took the arrows, they could never shoot the arrows.

It was precisely because of the Wu army's mentality of throwing rats and being afraid of weapons that Wang Hui ordered the garrisons to fight closely with the Wu army. If the garrisons almost ignored all attacks before they were unloaded, they could sweep all the way.

But now they are in a state of no defense, and there is a huge difference between them and the situation where they are armed to the teeth in normal times, so Wang Hui could not use the usual cavalry fighting style. However, he cleverly fought with the Wu army, using the combat advantages of the cavalry to suppress the Wu army tightly and not give the Wu army a chance to escape.

As time passed, the Wu army became more and more impatient. According to Lu Kang's previous plan, when the Wei army attacked, Zhang Xian led the three thousand troops behind the rear to block the Wei army, and the time limit was one hour.

In fact, one hour would not escape too far for the Wu army, but considering the strong attack power of the Wei army and the strength of the 3,000 people led by Zhang Xian, Lu Kang gave Zhang Xian an hour pragmatically. As long as Zhang Xian could last an hour, the Wu army would still have a chance to escape for a while. As for whether the Wei cavalry would be caught up later, that would be a story later.

But now, although Zhang Xian lived up to his mission, he blocked the main force of the Wei cavalry, but the large army of the Wu army was blocked by the 5,000 Wei cavalry and was stranded in Yanziji and could not escape.

An hour came in a flash, and now Lu Kang was completely desperate. Even if they could break through the siege at this time, there would be two Wei cavalry behind them to pursue each other, and they would not be able to escape any longer.

And this is just a hypothesis that five thousand Wei cavalry were standing in front of them, and no matter how hard the Wu army tried, they could not cross this barrier.

Lu Kang sighed, planning is up to people, and success is up to heaven. He insisted on moving westward to join the Shu army and reverse the situation in Jingzhou. However, man-calculation is not as good as God-calculation. In the end, he did not wait until the day of joining the Shu army. This is a regret.

At this time, Zhang Xian led hundreds of cavalry to come, and saw him covered in blood. He arrived next to Lu Kang, rolled down and fell from his horse, crying: "I am fortunate to be unfair to my fate. I will hold on for an hour. Three thousand people will fight bloody battles until the end, and only these hundreds of people will be left."

Zhang Xian did it. He led 3,000 people to withstand the powerful offensive of the Wei army's cavalry camp. He fought for an hour. After completing the mission, he took the initiative to evacuate the battlefield. However, at this time, there were only a few hundred people left by Zhang Xian, and basically all were covered with scars. Even Zhang Xian himself was injured in many places.

But Zhang Xian felt that all the efforts were worth it. They fought here and won an hour of precious retreat for the main force of the Wu army. Now that he finally completed the task, he felt indescribable ease.

Zhang Xian led the hundreds of surviving people to quickly escape from the position on horseback. It would be meaningless if they persisted. The Wei cavalry pushed forward and they had no strength to stop them. Zhang Xian only hoped to catch up with the large army of the Wu army and report to Lu Kang.

But when he arrived at Yanziji, he was stunned. It turned out that Wu Jun had not left at all. He was still in the same place. Zhang Xian was immediately sad and felt that all his efforts were in vain. He cried and bowed to Lu Kang, feeling like a child.
