Suddenly, the surrounding Chu and Wei coalition soldiers collapsed suddenly. The Qin soldiers shouted and killed the collapsed Chu and Wei coalition soldiers, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Xiahou Yuan, were surrounded by the battlefield where the three-person battle was fought.

Zhang Fei and Xiahou Yuan suddenly saw this and couldn't help but be stunned.

Taking advantage of the two of them's distractedness, Guan Yu swept across the sword at Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei's hair stood upside down and he avoided it dangerously, but the head of the war horse he sat down was hit by Guan Yu, and the war horse fell to the ground, and Zhang Fei also fell to the ground.

Xiahou Yuan was shocked and before he could even take care of Zhang Fei, he turned around and ran away.

After Zhang Fei got up from the ground, he saw Guan Yu coming to him again, and seemed to be vowing to take his life! Zhang Fei was extremely frightened and dragged his Snake Spear and fled into a nearby place with dense grass and trees.

Seeing that it was difficult to find Zhang Fei, Guan Yu abandoned Zhang Fei's life and led the Qin army to chase and kill the defeated Chu and Wei coalition forces, and rushed out of Meng County and entered Suiyang, killing the Chu and Wei coalition soldiers all over the field.

It is roughly estimated that at least nearly 40,000 soldiers of the Chu-Wei coalition army were killed and injured, and more than 10,000 fled. There are less than 20,000 people who can return to the Chu-Wei coalition army camp!

The Qin army won the first battle, while the Chu and Wei coalition forces were defeated in the first battle!

When Cao Pi and Liu Bei heard the news, it was like losing their parents, and the morale of the Chu-Wei coalition forces also decreased a lot.

In addition, when Liu Bei learned that Zhang Fei was missing, he was even more shocked and staggered twice, with a pale face.

"How could it be, why would you lose like this?" According to Liu Bei's opinion, Zhang Fei and Xiahou Yuan's siege should be able to defeat Guan Yu. With the number of coalition soldiers who are no fewer than Qin's soldiers, the chance of winning the first battle should be much greater than that of Qin's army, but why did he lose a crushing defeat?

If you don't accept it, it's really hard to accept it.

Liu Bei suddenly woke up and asked Zhuge Liang: "Military advisor, what should I do?"

Cao Pi also asked Sima Yi anxiously: "Zhongda, the first battle is rude, isn't morale going to be a big surrender? What are your good plans?"

Zhuge Liang appeased Liu Bei, but did not say any good strategies. However, he also used this defeat to evaluate the current combat effectiveness of the Qin army. From the time Zhang Fei and Xiahou Yuan sent troops to the time when he returned from the defeat, he could roughly calculate the current combat effectiveness of the Qin army.

Undoubtedly, Chu Wei, which was the same number as the Qin army, was defeated so quickly under the leadership of Zhang Fei and Xiahou Yuan. The Qin army's combat effectiveness slightly exceeded Zhuge Liang's previous assessment, which made Zhuge Liang even more dissatisfied with this battle.

The Qin army was strong, and from the beginning he did not support the flat area like Yan and Henan provinces, and he had a far weaker strength than the Qin army to fight against the Qin army head-on. Unfortunately, Liu Bei did not listen at the beginning.

On the other side, Sima Yi also appeased Cao Pi. Although there was no good idea for the time being, he had not completely given up Cao Pi and wanted to show his talents more. Therefore, Sima Yi took the initiative to go to Zhuge Liang for negotiations.

With Cao Pi, Liu Bei learned that the Chu-Wei coalition army was defeated in the first battle and the morale of the Chu-Wei coalition soldiers also declined sharply. On the contrary, Liu Yu heard that the Qin army won the first battle, he laughed.

Liu Yu smiled and said, "Liu Bei, Cao Pi sent Zhang Fei and Xiahou Yuan to siege Yun Chang, thinking that he could take advantage of it, but now he has miscalculated."

In recent years, the combat effectiveness of the Chu army has almost not increased, which is not much different from the beginning. As for the combat effectiveness of the Wei army, it collapsed violently. The same number of Wei army had less than 50% of the Wei army's combat effectiveness during the Cao Cao period. However, Liu Bei was not very clear about it, and Cao Pi was even more subconsciously unwilling to admit it. At the same time, the combat effectiveness of the Qin army was much stronger under Liu Yu's reform than nearly three years ago. Liu Bei and Cao Pi overestimated the combat effectiveness of his own Cao Wei coalition, but underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Qin army. How could there be a reason to be invincible?

In the first battle, the Qin army was full of morale. Liu Yu rushed his army through Meng County and headed straight to Suiyang.

The city of Suiyang is not big, it can only accommodate tens of thousands of people. There are already more than ten thousand people inside, and it can accommodate up to 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers. Therefore, only a small number of the Wei army stationed in the city, and most of the Wei army and all the Chu army only camped outside the city.

The Chu-Wei coalition camps stretched for dozens of miles, and the 500,000 Qin troops, including 250,000 cavalry, even came a hundred miles, majestic and imposing!

When the cavalry developed to the point where they had nailed the horseshoe and replaced it with iron stirrups, their combat effectiveness was greatly improved and they had become the king of cold weapons wars in the substantive sense. Liu Yu now has far more than 250,000 cavalry dispatched in this Eastern Expedition, but has exceeded 400,000. After all, the Han Dynasty has always had horses. Liu Yu occupied the best horse-raising land for the Han Dynasty, such as Hebei, Liangzhou, Guanzhong, Wudu, and even destroyed the four Hu Hu, Qiang, Di, Wuheng, and obtained a large number of war horses, as well as many Hu people's horse-raising lands such as Xihai and Hetao. Liu Yu has the largest number of cavalry clusters in the world, the most excellent military armor and the most powerful combat power. Even the Huns at the peak of that year, at the most glorious time, they could only summon up to 500,000 nomadic cavalry.

In other words, the number of cavalry that Liu Yu currently possesses is almost comparable to the size of the Huns at the peak, not to mention that Liu Yu's cavalry is much more so than the cavalry of the Huns at that time, or he has a horseshoe and replaced it with an iron stirrup cavalry. The comprehensive combat power of the cavalry cluster that Liu Yu has is no more than twice the strength of all the Huns at the peak of that year! Liu Yu is also planning to sweep the world with this cavalry force like a giant in the current era after unifying the Han Dynasty. Qin Shihuang did not have a globe at the time, but Liu Yu had a globe in his mind, and he knew exactly where to point.

No further talk.

Compared with Liu Yu dispatched 250,000 cavalry this time, all the cavalry of Liu Bei and Cao Pi's Chu-Wei coalition forces were only 40,000, which was a huge difference!

After Liu Yu set up his camp ten miles away from the Chu-Wei coalition camp, he ordered Zhao Yun and Ma Chao to lead 30,000 Qin cavalry to attack the Chu-Wei coalition camp one on the left and one on the right, while Liu Yu led Guo Jia, Jia Xu and other advisers to watch the battle situation at a high place.

Zhao Yun came from the left and Ma Chao rushed from the right at the same time!

"Kill!" Zhao Yun and Ma Chao's two great generals were like two invincible swords. Under their leadership, the Qin cavalry had a momentum of attacking and destroying all enemies.

The soldiers of the Chu-Wei coalition army were already defeated by the first battle and their morale was reduced. At this moment, seeing the Qin army rushing so fiercely, they were even more frightened to be unable to hold their weapons. Especially in Zhao Yun and Ma Chao and the other two, most of the soldiers of the Chu-Wei coalition army were directly in front of them. Most of the weapons dropped directly on the ground, their legs trembled, and some of them were even more frightened and incontinent.

Among the coalition forces, only Le Jin and Huang Zhong and other generals who have experienced many battles can still maintain their calmness.

"Prepare to shoot arrows!" Seeing the Qin cavalry getting closer and closer, Le Jin hissed and was ready to send thousands of arrows at any time!
