Chapter 226 Fighting Chunyu Qiong
How could Gao Lan know that Xuzhou Army changed to Gaoqiao saddle, with support in front and backrests behind. It is so convenient to ride and shoot archery, and with hard training, the riding and shooting skills are superb.
Gao Lan led the remaining soldiers to return to the camp, but suddenly arrived on a pegasus. Hao Meng blocked the way with a long spear.
There are only one thousand cavalry in Hao Meng's army, and the other thousand are made up. After a few months of assault training, it is still OK.
Hao Meng is still very moral and has been in the same place with Gao Lan.
However, other cavalrymen did not talk about martial ethics like this, and they kept shooting at the enemy soldiers. The power of the close-range crossbow was quite powerful and caused huge psychological pressure.
When the rain of arrows over the sky was overwhelmed, Gao Lan's soldiers collapsed and had no desire to fight anymore. They trampled on each other and wanted to return to the camp.
Gao Lan's shot slowed down, and Hao Meng picked up the shoulder blade. There was a piece of copper plate on it. Although it didn't penetrate it, Gao Lan was picked off the horse and fell heavily to the ground.
Hao Meng's personal soldiers went over and pressed Gao Lan and tied it into rice dumplings.
"Surrender and avoid death, put down your weapons and do not kill any of them."
Gao Lan was captured, and more than half of his soldiers were killed in battle. The remaining soldiers and those who were left behind in the camp surrendered.
It is very common for princes to fight and surrender to each other. Just like workers changing factories, it is nothing more than just picking up buckets and running away or changing owners.
Zhang Liao came over and said, "Hao Meng, you take advantage of me. I have worked so hard. You can pick peaches."
"Tsk, come on soon. If the lord hadn't ordered me to come and block it, Gao Lan would have run in."
"That won't work, you have to invite me to drink."
Hao Meng lowered his voice and said, "I secretly brought the Great Man Imperial Wine. Let's drink it secretly when I look back."
Lu Bu's central army did not move from the beginning to the end, and now the battle is over.
Gao Lan was pushed down in front of him, in a very embarrassed manner, lost his helmet, and a bag was thrown on his forehead, covered in mud.
Lu Bu turned over and dismounted, untied Gao Lan's rope, and used a towel to hit the ashes on his body.
Highlights to move arms and legs, there is no major problem.
"Lu Bu, don't think about buying me with these small favors. I will not surrender. Kill me as soon as possible and give my full name."
"Brother Gao, don't get angry. We have no selfless grudges. What should I do if I kill you? The soldiers captured 1,500 people. I asked just now. There were 300 cavalrymen willing to go with me. You should take the rest back. I will also rush to Youzhou to save people."
Gao Lan thought he would die without a doubt, but he didn't expect Lu Bu to let him go and burst into tears of gratitude.
But I couldn't be too happy too early. There were only more than 1,000 soldiers under my command. Especially the five hundred cavalrymen, there were actually three hundred people following Lu Bu.
Many things are not that complicated and simple these days.
I am willing to surrender, have food, drink and money, but I am unwilling to surrender and take it to behead my head.
After all, not everyone is willing to die. Those who are willing to surrender will swear to be loyal to Lu Bu and join the Xuzhou army.
One hundred were merged into the Zhang Liao tribe, one hundred were merged into the Hao Meng tribe, and one hundred Lu Bu central army.
As for those ordinary infantrymen, Gao Lan, all the messy swords, guns and shields, they did not move. But the bows and arrows were gone, and Lu Bu was swept away.
Lu Bu released Gao Lan, and even more than a thousand prisoners under his command.
Gao Lan was very happy. No matter what, his life is still there, so we can do the things again.
"Brothers, all move and bury the brothers who died in battle. Let's withdraw our troops and return to the city." Gao Lan gave the order helplessly.
Morale collapsed and everyone worked weakly. Although Lu Bu spared their lives just now, all the valuable things on him were searched. I have to thank him for not killing him.
On that day, the Xuzhou army found a camp to rest more than 30 miles north of the battlefield.
Feng Xiong asked Lu Bu.
"Lord, stay with Gao Lan, there will be hidden dangers when we go back."
"Don't worry, it's okay. Gongsun Zan has at least tens of thousands of cavalry. If we have too many in the past, we will subdue 30,000 cavalry. In addition, the cavalry now is about 40,000. What we should be afraid of at that time is Bohai County."
Lu Bu didn't tell the truth. Because Yuan Shao's suspicious personality, Gao Lan was caught by Lu Bu and released easily, so he basically would not reuse it again. Once Gao Lan was not reused, it would be easy to be conquered.
After this battle between Xuzhou Army, not only did the number of people not decrease, but more than 200 more people were added. The war was only a few dozen people. The deaths in the march were cruel. They were buried in the ditches on the road, and they found a place to bury them, and that's all.
At this time, Gongsun Zan had been defeated and committed suicide. Ju Yi has always been the nemesis of the White Horse Army.
He had a shadow on Ju Yi and Gongsun Zan, and he lost consecutive battles. In addition, Gongsun Zan's behavior has been strange recently, and he only approached women and wives and concubines. He was distant from military generals and the soldiers were desperate.
When Gongsun Zan died, there were still 20,000 cavalrymen in Youzhou City.
Lu Bu led his army to Youzhou, and the world became wider, and green grass was everywhere with knee-deep green grass. At first glance, there were grasslands and trees on the hillside.
There are only a few villages and farmlands, and the land of Youzhou is so desolate.
Cao Xing and Zhou Cang led 500 sergeant probes into several teams, searching, and news kept coming back.
"Report, General. There is a gate in the northwest, called Jizhou City. Yuan Shao's powerful general Chunyu Qiong is attacking the gate."
"Oh, Chunyu Qiong? How many people?"
"There are about one thousand cavalrymen, and the infantrymen are less than five thousand. How many people in the city can't see clearly? It's probably only one or two thousand people, and the gates are in danger."
The distance is only twenty miles, but the cavalry cannot rush over directly. Horses are different from cars, and horses are very easy to get tired.
The army slowly moved forward and took more than twenty miles to arrive for half an hour.
Lu Bu set up a pergola in his hand and watched from a distance.
Then Yuan Shao's army was in full swing, screaming, carrying the ladder to attack upwards.
The walls of Jizhou small city are not high, at most only four feet. There are not many soldiers on the wall, but they are very difficult to deal with. The stones and wood are constantly throwing down, and blood is already flowing under the wall.
Chunyu Qiong's main banner had already discovered that the Xuzhou army was coming. He was shocked and quickly called out the gold medal to withdraw his troops and form a formation.
These were eight thousand cavalrymen, and they were attacking the Lu flag of Xuzhou. As expected, it should have been Lu Bu.
Lu Bu gave the order and ate and drank water.
The army dismounted and sat on the ground, took out food to eat and drink.
Chunyu Qiong's nose was so angry that he had crooked. Isn't this bullying? He dared to sit on the battlefield and eat and drink.
If the second general was replaced, Chunyu Qiong would rush forward, but this was Lu Bu in front of him.
Lu Bu brought Xu Shitou, Feng Xiong, Hua Ji, Chen Lan, a total of five people to the formation.
"Chunyu Qiong, I'm idle, I'm here to walk a few tricks."
"Lu Bu, if you are not staying in your Xuzhou, what are you doing in Youzhou?"
"Gongsun Zan is my brother. You bullied my brother and asked me what I did in Youzhou?"
Chunyu Qiong secretly cursed, why did this unlucky person come here? He fought against the eighteen princes by one person back then. Although he is a little old now, he has many soldiers and a wide range of generals. He is all very role-playing, and he is very tough and cruel.
"Ga." Chunyu Qiong rushed up with the seated war horse.
I used a wind-mouthed sword in my hand, similar to the Yanyue sword.
Huaji also used a big knife and urged the horse to meet it. After only six or seven battles, Huaji only felt his hands trembling. Chunyu Qiong was too powerful.
Feng Xiong and Chen Lan came up to attack. Chunyu Qiong didn't have the ability to fight one and three. Two yuan deputy generals came up to capture each other and fight each other.
When Lu Bu saw that Huaji was about to be defeated, the red rabbit flew over quickly.
"Everyone retreats, I'll fight him."
Chunyu Qiong was so angry that he had fought with Hua Ji for more than ten rounds, and his strength was greatly reduced. Wouldn't he come up to get a bargain at this time?
Huaji, Feng Xiong and Chen Lan retreated, while Lu Bu fought Chunyu Qiong alone.
The painted halberd is like a dragon coming out of the cave, and the cold light goes straight to Chunyu Qiong.
Chunyu Qiong closed his sword to defend, and slashed at the tip of Huaji with one knife. Who knew that Lu Bu's move was actually empty. Huaji retreated, Huaji's tail came up, and went straight to Chunyu Qiong's mouth. He wanted to pick his teeth, and he was quick and fierce. He hit the big knife with a bang, and a pit came out of the blade.
