Hu Feng made a large circle and returned to the temporary garrison of Gai Jun's army. This place was about twenty miles behind the Yellow Turbans and about ten miles away from the Yellow Turban camp. Huangfu Songruo knew that Gai Jun had arrived here first before sending someone there.
Notice, saying that he couldn't help but scolding him for making his own decision.
"Ren Bocai was so good at using his troops, but he never imagined that there would be thousands of cavalry behind him. Defeating Bocai's army would be equivalent to breaking the legs of the Yuzhou Yellow Turban. It would be easier to deal with later."
Gai Jun stood on the small slope, looking into the distance.
More than two thousand knights scattered behind them, sorting out their weapons, chatting in groups, closing their eyes to relax, and some even took out their gaming equipment and called their friends to gamble. Gambling has always been prohibited in the military, but because there is little entertainment in the military,
Gai Jun hated gambling, but he never stopped it. The soldiers worshiped him, trusted him, and were willing to follow him out of Liangzhou to live a life without tomorrow. Some of them might never be able to return to their hometown again.
, how could he bear to deprive them of the little entertainment they had left.
The Han army and the Yellow Turban army fought fiercely from morning to late at night. Although both sides suffered heavy losses, neither side had any intention of stopping. Instead, they attacked more fiercely, and the shouts of killing were so loud that Gai Jundu, who was dozens of miles away,
Can be heard clearly.
Gai Jun raised his head to look at the setting sun, and said to Pang De, who was standing beside him: "Ling Ming, you go and pass the order, let everyone calm down, and set off for the battlefield in two quarters of an hour."
"No." Pound turned around and trotted away, shouting as he ran: "Brothers, be alert, the war is about to begin..."
As soon as these words came out, the people who arranged their weapons stopped, those who gathered to chat closed their mouths, and they closed their eyes to relax and opened their eyes. Those who were gambling put away their gaming equipment one after another, and their lazy and casual atmosphere changed, replaced by a
The strong murderous aura of Xiao Su.
－－－－－－
The Battle of Xu County, with corpses lying everywhere and rivers of blood flowing, can only be described as tragic.
The Han cavalry led by Fu Xie killed many people until they were weak. Dead bodies and limbs were everywhere, and the horses' hooves had almost no room to stand, which greatly affected the cavalry's charge. The left wing of the Yellow Turbans finally couldn't bear the repeated torture and collapsed, and it collapsed.
Suddenly fled the battlefield. Everyone has the mentality of following the herd. Within a quarter of an hour, the right army also followed in his footsteps. Now the soldiers of the Chinese army were also panicked.
"Bo Shuai..."
Bo Cai looked calm and turned a deaf ear. He took off the knife from his waist, held it in front of his chest, and pulled it out with a "swish" sound. A long knife as black as ink appeared in front of everyone's eyes. The blade was as gloomy as the underworld, and seemed to be entangled with an unknown ray.
Zhou Xing suddenly felt a chill all over his body and shuddered violently. Not only him, but all the guards of Bocai around him had fearful expressions on their faces.
"Bo, Bo is handsome..."
"I win!"
Bocai shouted loudly and led 300 cavalry and tens of thousands of personal guards to attack the Han army. These ten thousand people were not poor people or refugees recruited after the uprising. They were all fanatical believers who had believed in Taiping Dao for many years. They had high fighting spirit and discipline.
Strict, powerful, and well-equipped, they are actually the core force of Taiping Road, and they are also the capital that Bo Cai relies on to resist the Han army. Once he attacks, he immediately beats the Han army back steadily. The Han army was not so incompetent, but it fought hard for the whole day.
One day, their strength and mentality were exhausted, and naturally they could not resist. The Yellow Turban Army was inspired by this. Not only did the remaining 20,000 soldiers of the Chinese army stabilize, but those unarmored Yellow Turban troops who escaped also began to return in twos and threes.
Huangfu Li was injured in five or six places on his body and lost a lot of blood. He was forcibly carried back to the central army by his cronies. He had been going to and from the front lines of the battlefield and was emotionally tense. Now when he took a break, his mentality was inevitably unbalanced. He waved his arms and howled: "This
When will Gai Ying arrive? If he doesn’t come, he will collect the body for me!”
Chief Shi Liang Yan and the military officers looked at each other in silence.
Huangfu Song did not blame his nephew for his gaffe. It was a blessing that he did not go crazy under the heavy pressure. Facing the huge Yellow Turban Army, the Han army was undoubtedly at a disadvantage. The most correct approach was to retreat first and find other ways to defeat the enemy.
To avoid a wasteful battle, Gai Jun now went behind enemy lines, forcing the Han army to face off against the powerful Yellow Turban Army.
Although Huangfu Song knew in his heart that the later Gai Jun arrived on the battlefield, the higher the chance of defeating the enemy, but this was at the cost of increasing casualties every moment for his own Han army.
Whether Taipingdao can gain a foothold in Henan depends on this!
Bo Cai did not hide behind like other commanders. Instead, he held a halberd in one hand and a sword in the other. He climbed up first and fought in person. When the yellow scarf soldiers saw that their general would not avoid danger and entered the battle personally, their morale was boosted. They followed him all the way, whether life or death.
Do not give up. Under the fierce attack, the Han army was exhausted and could no longer maintain its formation. The soldiers of both sides entangled with each other and fought to the death.
"Go straight to the tooth..."
Bocai shouted loudly, swung his halberd horizontally, swept down a large area, and rode his horse into the enemy group. His personal guards guarded him on the left and right, risking their lives to defend him from attacks from both sides. Although the Han army did not know that he was the Yellow Turban general Bocai.
However, he was able to conclude that this person must be a Yellow Turban general. He hid several bows and crossbows and fired suddenly when he was close.
Two guards stepped forward and blocked the hidden arrows with their bodies. Bo was knocked off his horse by another guard. He turned over and got up. His halberd instantly stabbed out, killing another person. Before he could pull it out, a bloody sword fell down.
The halberd was cut off. Bo Cai was not afraid, he swung the knife straight up and chopped off the opponent's head. At the same time, holding the broken pole like a poisonous dragon, he reached into the other person's mouth and pierced him.
"Kill...kill for me..."
The Han army was retreating in an increasingly panic. Bo Cai had been familiar with military books and tactics since he was a child, and knew that victory was in sight. Just as he was waiting for further action, his arm was suddenly grabbed by someone.
Bocai looked back and saw that it was Zhou Xing. Zhou Xing's face was full of fear. He danced his arms and shouted loudly, while pointing his fingers behind him. The noise on the battlefield was too loud, so Bocai didn't hear clearly, but he understood what the other party was saying in an instant.
Meaning, my body is having a cold war as if it's infected with malaria.
Without saying a word, Bo Cai turned around and walked back quickly. Zhou Xing took the opportunity to shout in his ear: "Bo Commander, the scouts are reporting that a large number of Han cavalry have appeared ten miles behind me!"
"Ten miles?" Bo Cai stopped, with a ferocious look on his face: "What the hell..." Bo Cai was startled and couldn't continue. The army was backed by Runan. At this time, Runan was already the power of the Yellow Turban Army.
Range is naturally not the focus of scout investigation.
Zhou Xing's mouth was full of bitterness. If the Han cavalry hadn't approached the camp, it would have been much later.
"how many people?"
"It is said that there are at least two to three thousand riders."
A chill ran down his spine and hit the back of his head, and Bo Cai shouted: "Quickly...order the brothers to retreat..."
"Big camp..."
"It's too late! Ming Zheng, break out to the right..." On the right is Chen State, which is also the sphere of influence of Taiping Dao.
"clang!"
"clang!"
"clang!"
Obviously victory was in sight, why did they suddenly call for gold and withdraw their troops? The Yellow Turban soldiers were greatly puzzled, but the military orders were so strong that they did not dare to question them.
Huangfu Song said anxiously: "The moth thief is about to run away! Call the flag envoy to inform the entire army that our reinforcements are about to arrive..."
The cavalry led by Qu Yi fought for a day, suffering heavy casualties and dying of exhaustion. The entire Yellow Turban army broke out towards him, and the pressure they endured can be imagined. Qu Yi did not do anything stupid like using a mantis as a chariot, and led his cavalry to retreat all the way.
. He was not afraid of battle, but he didn’t want his men to sacrifice in vain. On the other side, Fu Xie also broke away from the enemy group. The two cavalry armies met and rode beside them, sometimes galloping, sometimes attacking their backs, and sometimes penetrating the enemy formation.
, and cooperated with the infantry, making it difficult for the Yellow Turban Army to move forward and could not get rid of it.
"Woo...Woo..."
Accompanied by the faint sound of horns in the distance, the earth trembled inexplicably, and a black line appeared at the end of the green grass and blue sky.
