Although Xu Rong was anxious, even though he was a famous general in Xiliang, there was nothing he could do at this time. Logically speaking, when encountering this situation, he should immediately concentrate his troops and fight to break out, but Xu Rong could not do this.
Simply put, his purpose is to set up an ambush, but more importantly, it is to delay time and prevent the enemy from catching up with Dong Zhuo. This is Xu Rong's top priority. In case he escapes, these enemy troops will flee.
If it were directed at Dong Zhuo, it would be even more uncontrollable. Although Dong Zhuo had many soldiers and horses around him, no one could tell what would happen if he was suddenly attacked.
Therefore, he must not retreat. Xu Rong has even made a plan. Even if he puts all 30,000 people here, as long as he buys time for the prime minister to enter Chang'an, that will be enough!
"The whole army will fight to the death! Those who retreat will not be spared!" After fixing his attention, Xu Rong shouted loudly. No matter how powerful the enemy's army is, if he wants to swallow his 30,000 people, he will definitely eat them.
It's just a hairy mouth. Even though his army has fallen into chaos, these 30,000 people are the elites of Xiliang after all. Even if they are surrounded, they will not be easily defeated.
When Cao Cao heard Xu Rong's words of "fight to the death", he immediately guessed what his plan was. But what could he do now besides continuing to fight? Even if he was very interested in pursuing Dong Zhuo, the two armies were now in a melee, and there was no way he could do it.
There is no way to get rid of it. Only after the other side is completely eliminated can it be possible to continue to advance.
The two armies were entangled like a meat grinder. Dong Zhuo's army had the upper hand in numbers, while the coalition army had the upper hand in morale. Before they knew it, the battle had lasted for more than an hour. Dong Zhuo's army suffered losses one after another.
There were more than 8,000 people, and almost 5,000 people in the coalition army were injured.
Although our own army had 10,000 fewer troops than the enemy, our losses were only more than half of the opponent's. Generally speaking, this result is considered good. However, Cao Cao still seemed very unhappy in the face of such a battle situation. He had no other choice.
, both sides suffered losses at such a probability, even if they defeated the Xiliang army, I am afraid that I would have suffered heavy losses, and would I have any spare power to continue to pursue Dong Zhuo?
And what's even more terrible is that as the battle situation gradually developed, the Xiliang Army gradually understood that the army that suddenly appeared afterwards should not be large in number, at least not as many as originally expected. If the opponent was really large in number,
Being surrounded, the battle situation may have already become one-sided, and what our side will face should be a devastating defeat. But at least as far as the current situation is concerned, although our losses are greater than those of the opponent, it is far from that bad.
It's a serious situation. Although our own side has suffered a lot of damage, we are still trying to persevere and have the strength to fight.
"The enemy is just bluffing, and their power is about to be exhausted! Brothers, fight hard to kill the enemy, our army will win!" Xu Rong was the first to understand, and shouted loudly. People are like this, in times of adversity, it is easy to turn things around.
Thinking about the bad, but once they are out of adversity, even if they see only a glimmer of sunshine, they will think that the future will be a bright future. Under his encouragement, the Xiliang soldiers also suddenly realized and gradually recovered. Although the coalition forces are still
The Xiliang Army is in a state of encirclement, but as long as the Xiliang Army stabilizes its position, does not panic, and counterattacks in an orderly manner, I believe it is entirely possible to turn the tide of the battle again.
The so-called morale is sometimes a mysterious thing. It drops and then rises, and the change is so rapid. The battle situation is once again developing in a direction that is unfavorable to the coalition forces...
————————————————————————————————Gao Shun had cold sweat on his forehead. He didn’t know how many Xiliang soldiers he had killed.
The shirt on his body had long been soaked red with the blood of the enemy.
Killing people is really a tiring job. Gao Shun showed signs of fatigue without realizing it. Looking at Dian Wei, Zhang Fei and others who were still in high spirits, Gao Shun could secretly sigh in his heart.
"I'm here to accept my fate——!" Just as Gao Shun was sighing, he suddenly heard a clear shout coming from the front.
I saw a white-robed general in the enemy's formation - he was dressed similar to Zhao Yun and was about twenty-six or seventeen years old - rushing towards him.
The other party must have killed many coalition soldiers, and their white robes were soaked in blood.
Hey, I originally thought that I could only deal with ordinary soldiers in this battle. Could it be that I was lucky enough to kill a general? Since the enemy general found him, Gao Shun was naturally happy to add a lot of military exploits. Anyway, now
Dong Zhuo's army seems to have no top-notch generals except Lu Bu. Zhang Liao? If I remember correctly, he should be younger. He seems to be in his early twenties at this time.
But after the two guns met, things were not as easy as Gao Shun expected... The result of killing the general may be correct, but the question is which white-robed general or Gao Shun himself was killed...
In terms of strength, both sides are about equal, but the enemy general's marksmanship is very advanced. In terms of marksmanship, his skills may not be considered top-notch in the world, but they are definitely superior. Gao Shunbai's martial arts master is the so-called master of marksmanship in the north.
The marksmanship he has learned is pretty good, but compared to the white-robed general across from him at this moment, he is definitely far behind.
After thirty rounds, Gao Shun's back was dripping with sweat. Within these thirty rounds, he had already encountered two major crises. If his dodge speed had been even slower by 0.1 seconds, he might have been killed.
Hell.
Now, although Gao Shun was not dead, his left shoulder was still accidentally cut with a long and deep gash by the tip of the opponent's spear.
Damn, what kind of master is this? I have no impression at all! Gao Shun thinks that his martial arts is not weak among Cao Ying. Although he can't beat his sworn brothers Dian Wei and Xiahou brothers, he can barely fight Cao Ren.
It was a tie. But I never expected to face an unknown opponent. There were dangers all around within thirty rounds.
He saw that the incoming enemy was stabbing him with another shot very quickly and fiercely. Gao Shun quickly raised his gun to defend. Unexpectedly, the shot turned out to be just a feint. It suddenly changed direction in the middle and swept straight towards Gao Shun's neck.
Gao Compliance couldn't cope with it, so he could only tilt his body backwards, and almost fell off the horse because he couldn't control it because of the excessive inertia.
He felt a strong wind blowing against his face. Gao Shun managed to avoid the enemy general's shot, but he didn't even have time to express his gratitude. After the enemy general saw Gao Shun's successful dodge, he immediately changed his attitude.
The gun shot straight towards Gao Shun's throat.
But this time, Gao Shun had no other ability to react. The inertia of his backwards had not been completely eliminated, and the enemy general's shot was so fast and violent that Gao Shun had no time to do anything else at this moment.
Action, there is no other way but to watch helplessly as the gun pierces his throat!
My life is over! Gao Shun sighed in his heart. He had only traveled to this era for two years, was he about to die? Gao Shun was less than twenty years old. Although he had killed countless people and his hands were stained with blood, he still couldn't.
However, he did not have the awareness that "those who kill will always be killed" and was still full of fear of death. However, looking at the posture of the enemy general, I am afraid that he would have died before the fear in his heart spread.
