Chapter 172: Going out of the city to fight back

As Liu An's order was conveyed, the Xiaquyang City Gate slowly opened.

Lu Bu roared: "Soldiers, follow me! Kill the thief!!"

"Kill the thief!!!"

The three thousand elite soldiers behind Lu Bu burst into trembling shouts.

Lu Bu rode on his horse and rushed out of the city gate first, heading towards the Yellow Turbans lined up under the ladder waiting to climb the wall.

The Yellow Turban obviously did not expect that the soldiers of Quyang, surrounded by a 50,000 army, would dare to leave the city to fight the enemy, and they fell into confusion for a moment.

When these highest generals of the Yellow Turbans reacted and commanded the Yellow Turbans to fight the enemy, Lu Bu had already rushed into the Yellow Turban formation, and Fang Tian's painting halberd ruthlessly harvested the life of the Yellow Turbans.

In a moment, the Yellow Turbans around Lu Bu were slaughtered.

Then three thousand elites also joined the battle.

The elite troops were already waiting for their work. After the Yellow Turbans arrived in Xiaquyang, they were arranged to log wood and create ladders. They marched all the way here without rest. Now they have to face the elites who are far superior to their strength and physical strength, as well as their leather armor.

In an instant, one-sided massacres were staged under Xiaquyang City.

Zhang Bao stood on a horse not far from the city wall, witnessing his soldiers falling down one by one, but he felt that this was an opportunity.

The Xiaquyang city gate has been opened. As long as the enemies in front of you are eliminated, you don’t have to climb the city wall to fight. Entering the city gate, you can successfully occupy Xiaquyang.

Immediately, Zhang Bao ordered the entire army to suppress and make sure to wipe out the enemy.

However, Zhang Bao ignored the fact that he did not rest and replenish his supplies after he arrived here. Although many of them did not participate in logging and making ladders, they were always on standby, and did not get a good rest and did not replenish food.

When marching from a long distance, most of the energy in the body has been consumed. How much energy can you have to fight at this time?

After Zhang Bao's army joined the battle, the tragic situation of the Yellow Turbans under the city being unilaterally massacred was slightly alleviated.

But the elite of Liu Anjun is far from comparable to that of the Yellow Turbans. Their many sieges have caused minimal damage to Liu Anjun.

After a quarter of an hour of battle, Liu Anjun only died more than a hundred people.

The Yellow Turban, which had little physical strength, was at the end of its strength at this time. Under the leadership of Lu Bu, the three thousand elite soldiers gradually opened a hole in the Yellow Turban Formation. The original even force was broken again, and the Yellow Turban was killed and injured more and more.

The deputy general under his command once again suggested that Zhang Bao retreat temporarily. Seeing that all his troops were invested, he did not achieve effective results. Instead, more and more casualties were killed or injured, so he had to grit his teeth and order his retreat.

As for the yellow turbans blocked under the ladder, they could only let them die.

Lu Bu remembered what Liu An asked the messenger to him, and if Zhang Bao withdraws his troops, he will not pursue him, so he turned around and went down the ladder again.

Those people had experienced the scene of being slaughtered just now, and were already scared. Some people even pulled down their companions who had climbed the ladder and climbed up by themselves just to avoid the massacre of Lu Bu and others.

Zhang Bao looked at the slaughtered compatriots under the ladder, and felt unbearable, but he knew that if this continued, the losses would only be greater, and he had to agree with giving up those devout believers.

The army retreated ten miles in one breath and confirmed that Xia Quyang's army did not pursue it, Zhang Bao ordered the camp to be set up on the spot.

At this time, the Yellow Turbans under Xiaquyang City had been completely wiped out.

In this siege, Zhang Bao's army lost 6,700 or 7,000 troops, while Liu An's army died less than 400, which was a great victory.

But there are more than 40,000 left in the enemy army, and after this failure, Zhang Bao will learn from his lessons. The battle tomorrow and even in the future will never be as easy as it is today.

Liu An's inner heaviness was not reduced by this big victory.

Xiaquyang was at least two days away from Zhuo County with the horsepower of a messenger, and it was probably not long before he arrived in Zhuo County.

It will take time to support the rush from Zhuo County to Xiaquyang. If Zhang Bao's army will be fully fired tomorrow, Liu An is afraid that his soldiers will almost die if they can't wait for the support.

You can't sit still and wait for death.

After Zhang Bao's army retreated, Liu An had no time to rest, so he arranged for Hou Cheng to choose from everyone who could ride horses as much as possible. He did not need to be proficient, as long as he could ensure that he would not be dropped at full speed.

He himself called Lu Bu and the two rode out of the city.

Following the traces of Zhang Bao's army, Liu An and the others soon saw Zhang Bao's army as big as black dots in the distance. The small black dots kept moving back and forth. Liu An probably was preparing to set up a camp.

Looking at the terrain in the distance, Liu An found a low mountain south of the Yellow Turban Army.

The short mountain is only a few dozen meters high, but hiding the figures of the two is enough.

Liu An and his two detours around the other side of the mountain, and stopped the horse halfway up the mountain and tied it up in a place that the Yellow Turban could not see. Then they climbed up the low mountain.

Looking down from the top of the mountain, the Yellow Turbans at the foot of the mountain are completely visible.

More than half an hour has passed, and the Yellow Turban has transported the cut wood back and is setting up camp.

At this moment, Lu Bu finally couldn't help but say, "Ming Ming is indeed very brave. At such a great enemy, he actually has the elegant look and takes Bu to see the scenery! What Bu admired the most is Ming Gong's courage that has not changed when Mount Tai collapsed in front of him!"

When Liu An heard this, he looked at Lu Bu like a fool, too lazy to pay attention to him.

I brought Lu Bu here just because I was afraid of something unexpected, so I could rush out with the courage of the two of them.

But Liu An ignored Lu Bu, and he thought he was right and started to appreciate the nearby scenery in a good manner.

"The scenery here is pleasant, the mountains are lush, and the green river below surrounds this place like a ribbon. It's so beautiful!"

As he said that, Lu Bu shook his head seriously, "It's those traitors who are really annoying and have defiled this fairyland on earth. What a pity, what a pity!"

"How about it, Ming Gong? Isn't this skill in judging words good? Ming Gong asked Bu to read more books, but Bu..."

Liu An couldn't resist Lu Bu's nagging and couldn't help but speak: "Mr. Ming asked you to shut up, can you?"

"Uh..." Lu Bu's expression stopped hearing this, and he pursed his lips at a loss, and said embarrassedly: "Yes, yes."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Then he stood aside and silenced independently.

Liu An's eyes were always staring at the ants-sized yellow turbans below. When they set up the camp, it was already dark.

Torches also lit up in the Yellow Turban Camp. At this time, Liu An finally saw smoke rising from the camp.

They started cooking with fire.

Liu An touched a branch from the side, drew a picture of the Yellow Turban camp in blurred by the moonlight, and marked the specific location where the smoke from cooking was rising in the camp.

Another quarter of an hour later, the ants lined up at the approximate location where the smoke from cooking was rising.

Lu Bu looked at the Yellow Turbans below with Liu An. Seeing that they were making fire and cooking, Lu Bu felt empty after being tired for a day. He looked at Liu An with a long look several times, wanting to ask when he would go back to have a meal, but seeing that Liu An was so focused, he didn't dare to speak.

When Liu An saw the Yellow Turban lined up to get the meal, he finally determined the location where the Yellow Turban food was stored. He then cleared the traces under his feet and turned around and walked down the mountain.

Back in Xiaquyang, Hou Cheng had already selected all those who met Liu An's conditions, plus Liu An's personal guards, a total of 600 people who passed the equestrian skills.

Nodding, Liu An asked these people to go to rest quickly, and gathered in the county government office at the time of the afternoon.

He and Lu Bu also returned to the county government to have supper, so they seized the time to rest.

At one moment, more than 600 people led their horses and quietly headed to the Yellow Turban Camp outside the east gate of Xiaquyang under the already faint nightlight.

All horses' hooves are wrapped in fabric to minimize movement caused by horses when moving.

Because the turret was not lit, the field of vision was limited and the movement could not be caused too much alarm, and the group walked very slowly.
