: Retreat

: Retreat

The sky gradually became dim, like a layer of black gauze covering the entire earth. Smoke had already risen in Taishi Ci's army camp, and relying on the torches that were erected to disperse the coming night.

Taishici set up the army camp near a river so that cold water could be easily fed when cooking, but today there were fewer soldiers who fetched water.

Yangxian County in the distance stood on the ground, facing the army's city gate was closed, but the city gate on the other side secretly opened a gap, and then a large group of soldiers rushed out.

"General Zhao, the task of bait is very dangerous. You must withstand it for a while and wait for our support." Lu Xiufu said instructed.

"The last general will definitely stick to the arrival of all the generals."

Zhao Ponu nodded heavily, then turned his spear and led a soldier toward Taishi Ciying Village.

At the same time, the soldiers who made fire in the camp noticed the movement and looked in the noisy direction.

A soldier suddenly appeared in his sight, and a cavalry general carried a long spear and led nearly a thousand soldiers to come quickly.

However, they received a reminder from the senior generals in advance, and there was no panic in their pupils.

Even so, they still followed the instructions they had passed, roaring the words "enemy attack" one after another, running around as if they were in a mess.

A moment later, Zhao Ponu's troops had already arrived. He did not choose to forcibly attack the gate of the camp, but instead spent a large circle and launched an attack from a weak place.

"Shoot the arrow!"

Zhao Ponu's eyes crossed the wooden fence in front of him and fell into the camp. He couldn't help but sneer in his heart, and then waved his hand to order the soldiers behind him to shoot.

Hundreds of arrows were shot out from the raided soldiers. Accompanied by howling sounds of breaking through the air, dense rain of arrows formed in a blink of an eye, covering most of the enemies in the camp.

A shrill scream followed, dozens of enemies were hit by arrows, and wounds continued to appear on the flesh and blood body. The sharp arrows directly nailed them to the ground, and their voices continued to weaken while rolling.

They were all hit hard, and even the best equipment they were wearing, they could not withstand the power of arrows.

kill!

Zhao Ponu let out a wild roar and immediately activated the war horse to rush in front. The spear in his hand was like a giant python hovering in the void, swinging out extremely powerful force, and a huge gap was blasted out with one shot.

A large amount of wood chips suddenly splashed out around, and the soldiers and horses behind him followed Zhao Ponu's steps and suddenly entered the camp.

However, to their surprise, there seemed to be no major turmoil in the other camp, and even a small group of soldiers from the other party did not see them.

There was still smoke rising from the sky above the camp, but the camp was terriblely quiet. Except for the whimpering sounds of soldiers injured by the rain of arrows, they heard no other sounds.

Now is the time to eat, which is the noisiest time, but they did not see anyone in the camp.

"It seems that Lu Xiufu's guess is correct, and the enemy is setting a trap for us."

Zhao Ponu sneered secretly, and was also a little lucky.

If Li Guang had not followed Lu Xiufu's advice and insisted on leading a large number of troops in the city to attack the other party, then the other party's use of this trap would probably cost Li Guang a great price.

"General, there is so much smoke coming from this camp, why don't we see anyone here? Could it be that the enemy has already run away?"

The personal soldiers beside Zhao Ponu asked sideways.

In order to ensure that Lu Xiufu's plan was not leaked, only Li Guang and Zhao Ponu knew about it in the army. Even the middle and senior generals such as Sima and Centurion in the army had not learned any news.

At this moment, they seemed not to realize that Zhao Ponu's army was bait, a soldier that took the initiative to get into the enemy's trap.

Before Zhao Ponu's answer was met, a loud noise suddenly came from the quiet camp, and then the dull sound of war drums rang in the air, as if thunders were rolling in the air.

The soldiers led by Zhao Ponu were immediately startled. Under their horror, a group of soldiers emerged from all corners of the camp and instantly surrounded them.

"No, this is the enemy's trap, break out quickly!"

Zhao Ponu let out a long roar, and the bright voice pulled back the expressions of the soldiers' soldiers. Then, under the command of generals at all levels, they all gathered into defensive military formations.

"Strike them!"

A call came from the enemy formation, which caused a commotion and soon roared wildly, picked up the weapons and weapons in his hand, and rushed towards Zhao Ponu's army.

The sound of swords and swords sounded instantly. Taishici's elite boys had red eyes, and their weapons turned into sharp horses and swords, cutting melons and vegetables on the ground to kill the enemies in front of them.

Blood lights continued to appear in the void, and the broken limbs and arms flew towards the surroundings. Zhao Ponu's soldiers were caught off guard, and dozens of soldiers were lost in just one encounter.

Taishici's soldiers were all soldiers wearing excellent equipment. Although they were recruiting new recruits for a short time, their combat effectiveness was not much worse than that of ordinary regular soldiers.

However, Zhao Ponu's army was not inferior. Although he was surrounded, under Zhao Ponu's command, he quickly gained a foothold and withstand the opponent's wave after wave of offensives.

The sound of shouting, screaming, and the sound of swords and swords shook the sky and the earth.

"Form a circular array and stick to this place, waiting for support!"

Zhao Ponu's spear swept across the sword as light as straw, but when it hit the enemy, it instantly burst out with powerful force. It was like a thunder shot and killed the enemy into flesh.

The personal soldiers around him also tried hard to kill the enemy who rushed up. The warm blood gushed out of the enemy on his face, and combined with the murderous aura on his body, it seemed to turn into an evil ghost in hell.

However, when they heard Zhao Ponu's words, their movements of waving their weapons stopped slightly, and their pupils revealed confusion.

"General, we are deeply trapped by the enemy. We should break out in the shortest time to reduce losses. Why do we still stick here?"

"This is part of the plan, you'll know in a while."

Zhao Ponu did not explain too much, and turned around and continued to command the troops while killing the besieged enemies.

at the same time.

Taishici and Qu'a's young general Zhao Fan appeared on the battlefield, protecting the safety of Sun Shao and Wang Shuang respectively.

The two of them were wearing armor and holding long spears, looking coldly at the two soldiers fighting in groups not far away, and then stared straight at Zhao Ponu in the center of the battlefield.

"I know that general. I have fought with me before. Although I am not my opponent, I am also a good player in the army."

Zhao Fan said silently.

"Sir, since Li Guang did not lead the team himself, it seems that Li Guang did not do his best to attack. Should we..."

After hearing Zhao Fan's words, Taishi Ci turned to look at Sun Shao, but found that the other party's brows were frowning, as if he was thinking about something.

Noting Taishici's sight, Sun Shao replied: "There are not many soldiers and horses. I always feel that they are not attacking us, but testing us."

"Why did you say this sir?"

"Look at that army. Although you know it is a trap and are surrounded by us, you have not chosen to break through as soon as possible. It seems that you are delaying time and waiting for someone to come..."

Before Sun Shao could finish his words, an unusual shock suddenly came from the distant land, and soon a thunderous roar evolved.

Even this camp, shrouded in the sky, screamed the sound of killing, still heard the roar very clearly.

"That's the sound of the cavalry..."

Taishici, who was very sensitive to war, instantly identified what sound it was, and his face became ugly.

There are only two forces nearby, and there are no cavalry among them. This cavalry may be a troops from Yangxian County and from Li Guang's troops.

boom!

The roar became more and more intense, and the ears of the people were constantly eroding from far to near. Under their gaze, an extremely brave cavalry suddenly appeared outside the camp. The general led by the army had long arms and was holding a ring-headed knife in his hand.

With Li Guang's roar, it was like a thunder blew up in the void. The wooden fence outside the camp was directly blown out of a large hole under his impact, and a large amount of wood chips and mud collapsed.

Li Guang led the way, Liu Pi, Gong Du and other generals followed closely, and a large number of cavalry rushed into the interior like a surging tide and drove in.

The ring in his hand seemed to turn into a silver horse. Li Guang's gaze casually and landed on Zhao Ponu who was trapped in a siege.

The horse's head turned, and the sound of rumbling horse hooves suddenly rang out, and the cavalry behind him rushed, containing unparalleled power.

The violent energy that could destroy everything made the soldiers standing in front of the Iron Cavalry instantly crushed into a ball of flesh, and all the bones on their bodies were shattered into pieces and directly knocked to both sides.

The crackling sound of bone fractures kept ringing, and these soldiers were as weak as ants in front of the Iron Cavalry. With the continuous sound of horse hooves, they could only cry and fall to the ground, trampled to the point of vomiting blood, and the organs in their bodies flowed into the mud with blood.

"Li Guang is here!"

Li Guang roared, and in an instant, lightning-like speed burst out. The ring-headed sword in his hand slashed out, and a cold light flashed in the void. As the air burst, dozens of heads soared into the sky.

In just one moment, Li Guang took advantage of the war horse and rushed into the crowd and killed a special kill, dying for the cavalry behind him.

The unstoppable cavalry suddenly increased by three points, followed Li Guang's pace and continued to penetrate into the enemy's army, and soon joined Zhao Ponu.

"Is it a big deal to destroy slaves?"

Li Guang was very satisfied with Zhao Ponu, who was covered in blood. The other party's personality was very consistent with his temper. No wonder his lord transferred Zhao Ponu to him as his deputy.

"I'm not seriously injured. General, we need to fight out as soon as possible and capture Taishici and the others."

"Yeah, I get it."

The two quickly reached an agreement, then turned to defense to offense, and used the advantages of the cavalry to quickly drill through the enemy's military formation and kill in the direction of Taishici.

At the same time, a large number of infantrymen appeared outside the camp. The last reinforcements led by Lu Xiufu finally felt the battlefield and joined the ranks of the troops who surrounded and killed Taishici.

Taishici and others, who were located deep in the camp, saw this scene, and their faces instantly became gloomy.

The enemy has already fought with their troops in close combat. No matter what the final result is, they will definitely pay a huge price. In other words, after this war, they will be unable to continue to attack Yangxian County.

Sun Shao shook his sleeves and said, "General Taishi, it's time for us to return to Jiujiang County."

"Did we just give the entire Wu County to Wang Meng and Li Ji and the others?"

Taishici's tone was a little unwilling.
