<>After the cavalry swept the Chinese army, the war has come to an end. [This article comes from]
Although the Danyang soldiers who fought fiercely with Langya Yulin had recovered their losses, their flanks were completely defeated. After the central army was annihilated, they were already in a dangerous situation of being attacked from the front and back. No matter how they managed to hold on, they had reached their limit.
The rout started before the cavalry rushed in. Danyang soldiers lost their previous courage, dropped their weapons, and collapsed thousands of miles away. The Qingzhou army, which had fought hard for half a day, was greatly boosted in morale, and even the crossbowmen on the mountain were eager to join the pursuit.
.
Wang Yu slapped his head on the ground hard and wiped his face with his left hand. It was wet with blood and sweat. He sighed and said: "Don't do unnecessary killings. Just focus on surrendering."
He spoke in a low voice, like a whisper in the noisy battlefield, and the people following him were not the personal guards who had been following him, but the nameless soldiers in the Langya Feather Forest—
-The battle was too fierce. Those elites specially selected by Zhang Jaw were either killed or wounded in the previous hard battles. The people who followed Wang Yu had already changed three or four times.
"Here!" But the latter understood what he meant immediately, and the awe-inspiring response came from everyone's mouth.
If there were doubts and confusion before, no one would think so now. The friendship of fighting side by side is the most reliable in ancient and modern times. In the past, we only heard about it, but this time, everyone witnessed this invincible man with their own eyes.
The commander's strength and unique charm.
From the very beginning of the charge, Wang Yu was at the forefront. Wherever he pointed his long spear, he was invincible to all who stood in his way. From the moment he took the first step, he never stopped moving forward, not even once turning his head.
I didn’t even look back, I had no fear or hesitation in my heart. I just kept moving forward in such a big way.
There are many factors that affect Langya Yulin's extraordinary combat power, but perhaps the most critical one is Wang Yu's leading the charge.
Following his figure, the soldiers who looked listless, timid and hesitant not long ago no longer had time to think about what they had and what they didn't have. They ignored that this was not their hometown, and no longer thought about the identity of a soldier who had once been obsessed with them. In the end, they forgot about life and death.
, just chasing behind that god-like figure, constantly moving forward!
"Those who abandon their weapons will be spared death; those who surrender will not be killed!" When the shouts of persuasion to surrender rang out one after another, Wang Yu knew that the morale of the army was determined, and there would be another strong army under his command.
This battle was extremely brutal. Langya Yulin, who had been fighting hard since the beginning of the war, suffered extremely heavy casualties. Although statistics had not yet been compiled, Wang Yu could roughly estimate the results just by looking back coldly.
Nearly half were killed or injured!
In the era of cold weapons, this kind of casualty ratio was unimaginable. Most armies were on the verge of collapse when their casualties reached 20%. Take Cao Bao's army as an example. The 50,000-strong army before the war started was defeated at the moment before it was finally defeated.
There are still more than 10,000 people surviving, and the casualty rate is only a little over 30%.
In a sense, the Danyang soldiers are already the pinnacle of strength that can be achieved in this era. Without the encouragement of great righteousness or the command of famous generals, they can withstand such a horrific casualty rate and persist until the last moment.
.
Generally speaking, when the casualties are so high, the winner will pursue the loser mercilessly. Only when everyone is weak will they surrender and capture prisoners. Generals will generally remain silent, and the army's resentment and
Anger always needs to be vented. Rather than letting them cause trouble after the war, it is better to vent it completely on the battlefield.
There is no need to worry about the other units of the Hussars, because the Hussars have been retreating since the first battle of the army.
The Battle of Yangren was fierce, but in the end, Wang Yu and Xu Rong fought with each other somewhat sympathetically. In the end, it was more like a master passing on his mantle to his apprentice, rather than one party surrendering to the other. The Battle of Fenggao to pacify Qingzhou
, Wang Yu had set a goal before the war started, he wanted to surrender the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans.
Therefore, Wang Yu successfully got rid of the bad habits of this era. The Hussars basically never killed prisoners, except for the time against the Huns.
But Langya Yulin was a special case. He had not yet integrated into the Hussars. Wang Yu was still worried at first, not knowing how to persuade these red-eyed sergeants. He never thought that he had taken the lead and completely conquered this mighty army.
The latter carried out his orders without hesitation.
Hearing the calls to surrender from all directions, some people slowed down their escape speed, some stopped, and some continued to escape without looking back when no one was chasing them.
Wang Yu's reputation for not killing prisoners was very resounding, and Cao Bao's Danyang soldiers were originally not very loyal. They were recruited and trained by Tao Qian. Although Cao Bao had a strong affinity, there was widespread distrust of his abilities in the army.
question.
In the peaceful years, it was good to follow a boss like Cao Bao. The general had no authority, so everyone could do their own thing. But in the precarious and chaotic times, following such a good-for-nothing boss would be irresponsible for your own life!
Didn’t you see? Qingzhou’s cavalrymen beheaded the generals to seize the flag, but in the end they only killed Zhang Lie. Cao Bao and Xu Dan saw that the situation was not good, and they had already rubbed their feet. Relatively speaking, the commander of the Qingzhou Army
But he is always fighting at the forefront of fierce battles... If his coach also has such authority, then he is willing to use his body to block the coach's arrows.
Thinking like this, he hesitated. The reason why these people did not take action immediately was because they were still a little uncertain in their hearts. After all, they had killed many people on the other side. After such a fierce battle, it was rare to not kill the prisoners.
, will the Qingzhou Army be an exception?
Most of those who resolutely fled did so because they had relatives who died in the war. Although life and death are inevitable on the battlefield, there is no deep hatred. However, those who have lost their father, son, and brother will never have any feelings for the murderer.
It's just a good impression. Rather than bending the knee to fight against the enemy, they are more willing to take revenge, or run far away, or at least end up out of sight.
At this moment, a chorus of shouts suddenly sounded from the top of the mountain.
"Brothers, don't think too hard. General Hussar is the successor chosen by Mr. Tao. If it weren't for the selfishness of Cao Bao, the guy who suffered a thousand cuts, there would be no need for everyone to fight this war! Just surrender, where else would you go if you don't surrender?
? Are you going to fight for the glory and wealth of that idiot Cao Bao? What is that for?"
"Down! Down!"
Those who were determined to escape slowed down; those who hesitated listened one after another and looked to the top of the mountain in surprise; some of those who had already stopped were crying and some were scolding. Those who were crying were sad about the wasted death of their acquaintances, and those who were scolding
It's Cao Bao's shamelessness and incompetence.
The speaker didn't make any great sense, let alone be very convincing, but the effect was surprisingly good.
There is no great mystery, it is just the principle of being surrounded by enemies on all sides. The people who shouted all spoke with Danyang accents. The strength of the Danyang soldiers lies in the fact that they stick together and are most sensitive to the local accent. When they are helpless, when they hear this
I believed it on the spot.
Even if you don't believe it, the worries in your heart have eased a lot. What the Qingzhou Army meant by shouting like this is obviously that the responsibility for provoking the war will be placed on Cao Bao, so there is no need to worry about killing prisoners or anything like that.
The familiar local accent was good news to the soldiers, but to Cao Bao, it was like a bolt from the blue.
In today's defeat, the most fatal blow undoubtedly came from the cavalry. What Cao Bao couldn't figure out was where the cavalry came from. He was a local snake. If reinforcements arrived in Qingzhou, it would be impossible.
You can't hide it from him. Looking at the mighty appearance of this iron cavalry, it's not like they just pull out a few hundred people from anywhere, arm them and put them to use.
Now, he finally understood. Every one of those iron cavalry existed. He had always known about it, and had studied and been wary of it...
In the harassment battle along the way, this cavalry appeared as a navy;
In the Battle of Fulong Valley, this cavalry appeared as crossbowmen;
And during this battle, they transformed and became armored cavalry again! Those who fired arrows on the top of the mountain were simply veterans of Danyang in Tan City!
In this battle, Wang Yu only used one trick, and that was to hide Li Daitao from the enemy! In fact, this trick was not difficult to see through. Zhao Yun's Qingqi was equipped with one person and two horses. Although it suffered some losses in the Battle of Fulong Valley,
But Tancheng also has some war horses. As for iron armor and other things, Tancheng also has reserves in its arsenal.
Cao Bao also guessed the omnipotence of the Hidden Mist Army. The combat power of this army may not be much higher than that of other armies, but their characteristic is that they can be competent in all arms and can perform on any battlefield!
Cao Bao couldn't figure it out, how could Wang Yu think of training such an army? Such characteristics, no matter how you hear them, are useless. But it is undeniable that in this battle, this army played a miraculous effect.
He was caught off guard.
"Leopard, don't think about it. Let's go quickly. We are no match for him at all. He is clearly trying to trick us in front of us. We don't even know what else to talk about. Run, it's important to save your life!" Seeing him in a daze, Xu Xu
Dan urged loudly.
He has no other thoughts now. He just wants to save a small life. If he can realize this wish by betraying Cao Bao, he will do it without hesitation. Unfortunately, from the Qingzhou Army's shouting, the other party
His name has been listed alongside that of Cao Bao, and they have been regarded as the main war criminals.
After taking this step, there is really no turning back.
The two of them are already grasshoppers on the same rope. Whether they gather the remnant army or anything else, they have to rely on Cao Bao. Therefore, they can only advance and retreat together to the end.
"... Hehe, that's not necessarily the case!" After holding it in for a long time, Cao Bao suddenly grinned, which made Xu Dan tremble. He wondered if the other party had been overstimulated and had gone crazy.
"Leopard, you..."
"Erdan, haven't you seen it yet? There..." Cao Bao's laughter got louder and louder, but he didn't laugh with joy, but as if he was crying. Suddenly he raised his hand and pointed toward the southwest.
, hissed: "It's Que Xuan! Que Xuan is finally here!"
