Watching Lu Bu go around in front of the formation, and then walk away, Ji Ling was angry and helpless, now the initiative of the war fell into the hands of Lu Bu, all the cavalry under his command, coming and going like the wind, Ji Ling did not dare to pursue, once the infantry was abandoned, it was difficult to maintain the formation, when the time came, Lu Bu killed a horse pistol, and in this wilderness, he didn't even have a place to cry.
"General, what now" The adjutant general came to Ji Ling's side and said with a wry smile.
"Gather the rout army and retreat to Fenqiu."
Ji Ling's face was gloomy, and the 100,000 army came to find the bad luck of the imperial court, but he hadn't seen the city wall of Yique Pass, half of it had been wiped out first, how could this battle be fought "Send someone else to inform the lord."
After hesitating for a moment, Ji Ling looked at the generals and said, "Explain the situation of this battle and ask the lord for help." ” Asking for help is a good idea, Ji Ling is also quite helpless, although Qiao Rui, Chen Lan, and Lei are a little pustuated, but they are not really incapable, and now they are defeated one after another, and now in the case that the strength is no longer superior, Ji Ling really does not have much confidence to face the conquest army of the imperial court alone, so he can only ask Yuan Shu for help.
"Oh" a lieutenant agreed, and hurriedly arranged for someone to rush to Shouchun for help.
"If you see Chen Lan and Lei Bo, let them roll over and see me" Seeing that Lu Bu had already led the army away, Ji Ling exhaled depressedly and roared through gritted teeth.
Although he was annoyed that these two wastes had lost the city and land, after all, he had fought with the imperial court, and he always knew more about the information of the imperial army than himself.
When he returned to Fenqiu, the adjutant general who went to collect the rout had already rushed back and said: "General Qiyu, General Chen Lan was killed by Lu Bu with an arrow, and General Lei Bo was trampled to death by ten thousand horses in the chaotic army. ” "Ugh" Ji Ling stared at this subordinate and said incredulously: "All dead" "Yes, according to the report of the generals in the rout, General Chen Lan was shot by Lu Bu's army as soon as the battle began, and General Lei Bo disguised himself as a sword and shield man in order to avoid Lu Bu's sniping, and unfortunately fell into ten thousand horses when Lu Bu broke through."
In the end, the general's expression was also a little strange, although it sounded good, but in fact, it was because he was afraid of death that he disguised himself as a sword and shield hand, and as a result, he was unlucky enough to block Lu Bu's way of charging, and his death was worse than Chen Lan's.
"Got it" Ji Ling exhaled depressedly: "How many people are there in the army?"
"Now there are less than 8,000 people who have been brought back," the adjutant general bowed.
The army of 30,000 can still be collected back in the end, but there are only 8,000 left, counting the damage to the bridge before, just in just a few days, they have lost more than 40,000 people and horses, and nearly half of the army has been abolished Cavalry Patting the map, Ji Ling sighed, Yuan Shu also has cavalry under his command, and there are quite a few of them, but it is easy to move, Yuan Shu is reluctant, but this time, if there is no cavalry to contain Lu Bu, then this battle will be difficult to fight again.
Lu Bu didn't have to do anything else, he led the cavalry to attack the grain road day and night, and Ji Ling's soldiers and horses had to be trapped here, so there must be a cavalry to contain Lu Bu, even if he couldn't beat it, as long as he could contain it.
Thinking of this, Ji Ling asked people to prepare a letter, and he wanted to write a letter to Yuan Shu in person, asking Yuan Shu to send cavalry to support.
Early the next morning, Liu Xie received the news that Lu Bu had defeated Chen Lan and Lei Bo's army, and was confronting Ji Ling.
"Wenhe, why do I feel a little nosy" Looking at the content on the bamboo note, Liu Xie looked at Jia Xu with a wry smile, he had just sent Zhao Yun out.
According to Jia Xu's strategy, Zhao Yun led 10,000 troops and 10,000 regular troops, falsely claiming 30,000, attacking Luyang and Kunyang, and forcing Nanyang.
As long as Ji Ling is not stupid, he will know that Yique Pass is empty, and the Son of Heaven is here, let Chen Lan and Lei Bo contain Lu Bu, and personally lead the army directly into Yique Pass, and Zhao Yun will directly return to the division after breaking through Luyang, and attack the defenders of Yique Pass before and after, breaking Ji Ling's army, and then joining forces again, together with Lu Bu, the army of Chen Lan and Lei Bo was destroyed.
Neither Liu Xie nor Jia Xu expected that Chen Lan and Lei Bo would be defeated so quickly, the army of 30,000 was almost crushed at the first touch, and the army of Ji Ling was now contained in the Fenqiu area by Lu Bu and could not move.
"It's not useless, since Ji Ling's army has been pinned, Yuan Shu's 100,000 army has come to 80,000 so far, and our army just turned fiction into reality and directly attacked Nanyang."
Jia Xu shook his head, although he was a little amazed by Lu Bu's explosive power, but this strategy can attack the east and the west and lead Ji Ling into the gully, but now that Ji Ling has been restrained by Lu Bu, he can turn the virtual into reality and attack Nanyang directly, and Zhao Yun has no need to return to the division.
"Good" Liu Xie couldn't help clapping his hands and laughing when he heard this: "According to Wenhe's words, immediately pass on my military order, after Zhao Yun breaks through Luyang, he can directly march to Yexian, and order Cao Xing to lead 3,000 soldiers and horses to guard Yique Pass, and the rest of the generals will lead the soldiers and horses to Wuyang with me." ” Once the two cities of Yexian and Wuyang are broken, it is equivalent to cutting off the connection between Yuan Shu and Nanyang, as long as these two cities are blocked, and Lu Bu is contained in the rear, Liu Xie can rest assured that according to the intelligence, the soldiers and horses of Nanyang, even if they add the soldiers and horses sent to Zhuyang by Yuan Shu, add up to only 30,000, plus Liu Xie has continued to create public opinion in Nanyang in the past two years, but Yuan Shu is a tyrannical expedition to Nanyang, a good county, under the toss of Yuan Shu, both the population and the economy, even less than half of Yuan Shu before his arrival, in this case, the people's hearts are available, to break Nanyang, easy also Liu Xie also changed into a military uniform, and after a while with Cao, he left the 3,000 Lanchi battalion defenders to defend the city, and he brought Han De and other generals, ordered the rest of the soldiers and horses, and began to march to the Wuyang area.
Zhao Yun commanded mainly infantry, so on the march, he could not be as fast as Lu Bu, but the speed was not slow, and when Liu Xie passed on the military order, he had already arrived outside Luyang City.
"General, the defenders of Luyang City have been prepared, do we repair one night and fight again tomorrow" Outside Luyang City, looking at the closed gate of Luyang City and the dense defenders on the city wall, Deputy General Wei Xu looked at Zhao Yun.
"Did the intelligence show that Luyang had reinforcements to support" Zhao Yun didn't answer, but asked.
"Not really."
Wei Xu shook his head and said.
"That is to say, the soldiers and horses of Luyang are still only 1,500 people" Zhao Yun looked at the dense heads of people on the city wall, and sneered: "Bluff, I should make a big push to break through Luyang, tonight, I will rest in the city, and tomorrow morning, I will return to Yique Pass" Luyang is not a big city, the city wall is no more than two zhang high, there is no moat, the defending army in addition to some county soldiers, more people who were forced by the other party to go to the city to assist in the defense, Zhao Yun went out this time, but with an army of 20,000, it is not difficult to break this city, but it must be fast.
The 20,000 army did not rush up, but under the command of Zhao Yun, they began to attack Luyang City from three sides in stages.
Rows of improvised wooden frames began to be erected on the city walls, and the people at the head of the city uneasily threw the logs down the wooden frames, but the archers outside the city began to suppress the defenders on the walls.
The people at the head of the city began to flee in a panic, but immediately after, a force killed and injured the city wall, and the people who wanted to escape were slashed and killed, and the forced people had to return to the city wall and began to defend the city in the rain of countless arrows.
"This guard, it's hateful" Wei Xu saw this scene and pursed his lips with some disdain.
The people don't have much actual combat experience, and it's not a strange thing to run away in battle, but the other party sends people to kill the people with iron and blood, forcing the people to die in front, not to mention whether they are benevolent or not, on the battlefield, there is no mercy at all, but the other party only uses the people to block arrows and consume arrows, but his main force is shrinking behind the city tower, forcing the people to die, which is a bit hateful.
Zhao Yun's face was also a little gloomy, he hung the carved bow on the horse's back, took off the silver spear, turned over and dismounted.
"General, you" Wei Xu looked at Zhao Yun with some puzzlement.
"You come to oversee the army, I'll break the city" Zhao Yun snorted, and rushed to the direction of the city wall with his personal guards without looking back.
"The drum archers advance twenty steps, don't pay attention to the people on the city wall, give me arrows into the city" Seeing Zhao Yun personally going into battle, Wei Xu had to cheer up, the city wall was full of people, and there was not much defense at all, what he hated was the enemy army hiding behind the city wall, and the other party was taking advantage of the people's barrier and constantly throwing arrows outside the city wall.
Zhao Yun took more than thirty personal guards, and soon approached the city wall, seeing the city wall again, Zhao Yun bent down and picked up a spear from the ground, shouted fiercely from a distance of thirty paces, and threw the spear out with his hand.
"Bang" The spear turned into an afterimage, and the next moment, with a bang, it was firmly rooted in the city wall, no more, no less, and it was embedded in the city wall about a foot deep.
"Zhao Hu" Zhao Yun shouted angrily and yelled at his guards.
"Oh" Zhao Hu, the personal guard, understood, crossed Zhao Yun, and rushed towards the city wall, and after a while, he had already come to the bottom of the spear, clasped his hands, and turned to meet Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun at the moment of approaching the city wall, he accelerated suddenly, stepped on Zhao Hu's folded hands, in Zhao Hu's roar, his body rose into the air, and stepped on the spear that he had inserted on the city wall in advance, with the elastic force of the spear, he jumped again, the person had approached the city wall and stomped on it, and stomped on the city wall, and rushed up, before the person came out, the spear in his hand had turned into a piece of silver mist, and more than a dozen people close to the city wall died tragically under the gun. didn't have time to pay attention to these people, Zhao Yun swept his eyes, and in his eyes, only a few county soldiers were watching, seeing Zhao Yun going to the city, he roared and pounced, but was stabbed to the ground by Zhao Yun several shots, and shouted at the panicked people around him: "If you don't wait, when will you wait?"
