Chapter 243: Zhang Yide rode alone to break through
However, it was said that Liu Bei was ordered by Liu Dai to lead the army along the ditch water, more than 20 miles eastward, and crossed the ditch water south by night. After Liu Bei crossed the river, he ran for more than 80 miles, and on the second day, he attacked Yuanyong City on the south bank of the ditch water.
Liu Bei saw that the soldiers were tired, so he stationed his troops here to rest. In the middle of the hour, the Malay newspaper reported that the rebels had begun to cross the river.
Liu Bei was shocked, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to go out of the city and rush to Hucheng Pavilion. When Liu Bei was halfway through the march, Tanma reported that the enemy had surrounded the rebel army on the south bank of the ditch water.
Liu Bei was shocked, so he and Zhang Fei led 3,000 cavalry first, and ordered Tian Yu to lead 7,000 infantry to arrive.
Besides, Cao Cao, together with Xiahou Yuan, Le Jin, Cao Hong, and Cao Chun, marched overnight, and came to a place fifty miles south of Hucheng Pavilion at the end of the next day. In the middle of the day, the Malay newspaper reported that Dong Zhuojun had left Hucheng Pavilion and was heading towards the ditch water.
Cao Cao immediately decided to lead his troops to attack Dong Zhuojun's camp in Hucheng Pavilion. Just after the hour, Cao Cao broke through the enemy's camp and burned all the grain and grass of Dong Zhuo's army. Subsequently, Cao Cao did not stop, and went all the way north to rescue the right army.
……
At this time, if you look down on the battlefield on the south bank of the ditch water, it is such a picture. Hua Xiong and Wu Anguo are fighting back and forth; Huaxiong's 5,000 cavalry and Yang Ding's 5,000 cavalry rushed back and forth in the righteous army's formation; The 18,000 men of Dong Yue and Li Su were on the periphery of the battlefield and were gradually narrowing the encirclement.
Just when Dong Zhuojun wanted to further narrow the encirclement and tried to annihilate the rebel army on the south bank of the ditch water. The cavalry led by Liu Bei came from the east; Cao Cao led his troops and covered up from the south.
Liu Bei arranged the cavalry as a front array, and he and Zhang Fei were in front of the formation. The soldiers of Dong Zhuojun, who were on the periphery, had not yet reacted, and Liu Beijun's cavalry had already burst in.
I saw that the Zhangba snake spear in Zhang Fei's hand flew up and down, stabbing left and right, and blocking in front and back, and in just a few breaths, more than a dozen people had been killed. Liu Bei held a double-strand sword, blocking left and right stabbing, front and back, and killed more than a dozen people in less than half an hour.
"Zhang Fei is here, and the traitor is ...... to death"
Zhang Fei was killing for a while, roaring like a fierce tiger and roaring like a huge thunder.
The soldiers of Dong Zhuo's army had long been killed by this sudden cavalry; Hearing such a thunderous roar, he was already shocked and his soul was scattered.
Some of Dong Zhuo's soldiers, frightened, their legs were weak and they couldn't walk; Some were stunned in place, staring at the enemy general in black clothes and black armor riding a black horse; The rest fled in all directions.
Zhang Fei saw that the enemy's formation was chaotic and his courage was exhausted, and his chest became more and more angry. Zhang Fei also knew the truth of 'capture the thief and capture the king first', and then rode alone to kill Dong Zhuojun's military marquis and tun chief.
Zhang Fei killed from east to west, and from south to north, and he didn't see anyone under him. Suddenly, Zhang Fei glanced at the waterside of the gutter, and saw that Wu Anguo and an enemy general were killing happily, and suddenly added a little battle intent to his heart, and then rushed over with a spear on his horse.
Hua Xiong was just rising, and suddenly felt a cold wind blowing from the back of his neck. Hua Xiong hurriedly shortened his body, although he barely dodged the dangerous blow; There was already a cold sweat on his back, and his heart was even more shocked!
"An Guo will rest for a while, and I will kill this thief!"
Zhang Fei saw that the enemy general dodged his own blow, and his heart was about to be angry, and then he stabbed two spears one after another.
Hua Xiong tried his best to dangerously open Zhang Fei's Zhangba snake spear, his face was as shocked as earth, and his heart seemed to break out of his chest, and then he turned his horse and fled.
Zhang Fei had not yet passed his addiction, and when he saw that the enemy would run away like a lost dog, he was furious, and then he chased after him.
"Go ahead...... Obstruct...... Enemy generals! ”
Hua Xiong ran all the way, peeked behind him, and saw that the enemy general was in hot pursuit, and his heart was full of distress and death. Stimulated by the desire to survive, Hua Xiong ran for his life and shouted all the way.
Dong Zhuojun's soldiers had to go to death hard. After the delay of this group of soldiers, Hua Xiong finally escaped without his fate.
Besides, when Liu Bei and Zhang Fei personally led the cavalry to break through. Cao Cao, Xiahou Yuan, Le Jin, Cao Hong, and Cao Chun led their troops to the outer defense line of Dong Zhuojun's army at the same time.
Xiahou Yuan and Cao Chun led the cavalry of their subordinates to rush back and forth between the outer defense lines of Dong Zhuo's army. Le Jin led the troops in front, Cao Cao and Cao Hong were in the center, and the three led the infantry to break through the outer defense line of Dong Zhuo's army.
Subsequently, Cao Cao concentrated his forces and covered the enemy along the two flanks of Dong Zhuo's outer defensive line. Everywhere Cao Jun went, the enemy was full of corpses and no longer had the strength to resist.
"Rebel brothers, don't panic! Reinforcements are coming! Kill and rebel, take revenge and hatred......"
Cao Cao saw that Dong Zhuojun's formation was in chaos and had the potential to retreat, and he was overjoyed, and then shouted loudly.
When Cao Cao and Liu Bei's reinforcements did not arrive, the rebels on the south bank of the ditch water, like a flock of lambs waiting to be slaughtered, were slaughtered by Dong Zhuojun. The strength of the two reinforcements was like a bamboo, and it also added a bit of morale to the dying and struggling rebels.
The rebels began to counterattack with the reinforcements, roaring and waving their swords in their hands, slashing at the enemy fiercely. They want to vindicate their cowardice and avenge their dead robes.
Just when Huaxiong was defeated and retreated, Yang Ding also retreated with the remnants of the defeated army. The military formations of Dong Yue and Li Su were also scattered and killed by Cao Cao's troops.
Dong Yue and Li Su saw that the trend of retreat had been decided, and they were no longer able to turn the tide. The two did not wait for Hua Xiong and Yang Ding to arrive, and then withdrew their troops without looking back.
The soldiers of Dong Zhuo's army, who were already beaten by Cao Cao and Liu Bei's reinforcements, scattered and fled, and saw that the main general abandoned the battle and fled, and in an instant, the whole line collapsed. Dong Zhuo's army was a little panicked and fled towards Hucheng Pavilion; Some fell on their knees and begged for mercy.
Just when Dong Zhuojun fled on all fronts, the 7,000 infantry led by Tian Yu arrived, followed by a fierce attack and fierce attack, killing Dong Zhuojun to the point of crying father and mother, shouting heaven and earth.
At this time, the battlefield on the south bank of the ditch water is such a picture again. Dong Yue and Li Su's troops rushed to the front, and Cao Cao's troops and Tian Yu's army pursued and killed behind them. Hua Xiong and Yang Ding's troops rushed in front, and Liu Bei's troops and the righteous army covered up behind them.
Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and the angry rebels chased after each other as if they were not dying. Dong Yue, Li Su, and Hua Xiong rushed all the way to the Hucheng Pavilion camp, but saw that the camp was already a piece of ashes.
Dong Yue and Li Su had to rush to the Tiger Prison. Just as they were crossing the chasm in the south, Cao Cao and Liu Bei's men and horses caught up. Dong Zhuojun's soldiers, frightened, had to jump into the turbulent river and die.
When Cao Cao and Liu Bei led their soldiers to cross the chasm, Dong Yue, Li Su, Hua Xiong and others had long since disappeared. Cao Cao and Liu Bei led their troops to Longcheng.
