Chapter 596 rushes out
After slashing three generals in a row, Zhao Yun became more and more fierce, as if the god of war had descended to earth, and rushed straight into the enemy crowd, turning the Yuan army's lineup upside down.
The enemy generals he encountered, all of them were defeated within three moves, or killed, and no one dared to stop him from advancing for a while.
But no matter how brave Zhao Yun was, he couldn't break through the encirclement with one fell swoop, and the cavalry division fought fiercely for a day and night, although he stopped to replenish his physical strength halfway, but the fatigue was difficult to eliminate.
It has been said before that as soon as the cavalry impact is reduced, the combat power will slowly decline, and now it is facing this dilemma.
The cavalry division became weaker and weaker the more they fought, and their combat strength gradually declined, if there was no external support, I am afraid that it would not be long before Yuan's army formed an encirclement and annihilated them.
At this moment, smoke and dust suddenly billowed in the distance, as if thousands of troops were coming, accompanied by a faint shout.
"General Zhao Yun is in a panic, and Lord Xu ordered me to come and answer ......"
This voice reached the ears of the surrounded cavalry divisions, and their spirits were shocked, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and their combat strength suddenly rose to the peak.
When Yuan Jun heard this voice, he was in a state of confusion for a while, for fear of being surrounded by the enemy, and his fighting spirit was sharply reduced for a while.
Zhao Yun naturally would not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and hurriedly raised his gun to rush forward, leading the army to rush in the direction of the response.
"Follow the general, break out of the encirclement, get in the way, crush them!"
Hearing such heroic words, the cavalry division's bravery was no less than doping, and it followed the neat shouts for a while.
"Crush them!"
"Crush them!"
"Crush them!"
……
Under such a formation, where could the Yuan army resist, in less than ten minutes, let the whole cavalry division rush out.
Zhao Yun led the army out of the encirclement and came to the place where the army was answered, only to see Li Shu and Zhang Ning commanding the more than 100 cavalry left behind, running back and forth, raising bursts of smoke and dust.
It turned out that after Zhao Yun left, Li Shu and others had sent spies to investigate, and when they learned that Yuan's army had set up an ambush, they wanted to send someone to inform them.
But thinking that since the Yuan army set up an ambush, then they will definitely block and control it secretly, and then the news will not be conveyed, but the general will be exposed himself.
So Li Shu and others discussed and decided to tie a branch to the tail of the war horse to rescue the powerful army, which played a certain role at the critical moment.
Yuan Jun didn't know why, and he happened to be bluffed by this bluff, giving Zhao Yun an opportunity to break out of the encirclement.
Zhao Yun joined Li Shu and others, and did not have time to rest and recuperate, so he took the initiative to retreat for thirty miles, choosing a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack.
In this battle, Zhao Yun's troops lost nearly 3,000 people, which can be described as heavy losses, and it was the first time that the cavalry division had suffered such a large casualty since its formation.
In the tent, Zhao Yun summoned his generals, first took the responsibility on his own, and then ordered them to comfort the army, so as not to have a low morale, and then began to discuss the next step.
In this battle, the Yuan army was ambushed on all sides, and all its strength was mobilized, although it did not keep itself, but it must be able to guess that there were not many soldiers and horses on their side.
If the Yuan army did not give themselves a chance to breathe and sent a large army to attack, then they would definitely not be able to hold it, you know, the Yuan army was ten times their size.
Zhao Yun's meaning was to wait for the situation of the Yuan army in the same place, and if the Yuan army raised a large army to attack, he would take the initiative to retreat to show weakness and preserve his strength.
Zhao Yun suggested that the generals under his command naturally agreed, after all, after the big battle just now, the soldiers needed to rest and recover.
However, Li Shu put forward a different opinion, she believed that if she took the initiative to retreat, Yuan's army would definitely gain an inch and press forward step by step.
When the time comes, the morale of the soldiers will definitely be seriously damaged, on the other hand, the morale of the Yuan army will rise steadily, and when Xu Shu leads the army to arrive, it will also be unfavorable to the battle situation.
This is also true, on the battlefield, if the strength of the two sides is equal, morale is also a crucial factor, so both sides will fight for it.
Even if it doesn't work, we must maintain an equal situation and not let the morale of the enemy be weaker.
Regarding Li Shu's suggestion, Zhao Yun also thought about it, and finally made a move that he would not adopt or veto.
After all, all the prerequisites are to ensure that the army is not lost, otherwise no matter how high the morale is, the losses of the soldiers will outweigh the losses.
Zhao Yun is ready to improvise, and which side of the second Yuan, at this time, is the dark clouds overpowering the sky, especially Yuan Shu, putting on a face that everyone owes him two hundred and five.
As the generals came back one after another, Er Yuan ordered people to count the losses, and found that the casualties of the soldiers were still acceptable, and nearly 10,000 were killed and wounded.
However, there are no two out of ten cadres under Yuan Shu, which can be said to be the backbone of the generals in World War I who have lost everything, on the other hand, Yuan Shao's generals have only killed a few unknown people in battle.
This stark contrast made Yuan Shu have to think that this was Yuan Shao's deliberate effort, wanting to use Zhao Yun's hand to annex himself.
Yuan Shao vetoed this, resolutely saying that he didn't have this idea at all, and asked Yuan Shu to ask his subordinates about the surviving generals who participated in the war.
Yuan Shu was also angry, and as soon as the war started, he said that Zhao Yun was brave, don't fight with him alone.
But the generals under Yuan Shu's command, who can listen to the advice, all think that they are the best in the world, and they are dissatisfied in their hearts, including Yuan Shu himself, who also has this idea, and wants to use Zhao Yun's head to prove himself.
The facts have been caused, Yuan Shu complained and vented, but he had no choice but to break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.
When Yuan Shu calmed down and stopped complaining, he continued to advise and propose, let Er Yuan take the opportunity to pursue Zhao Yun, and take the initiative in the battle in his hands in one fell swoop.
Although the proposal was good, Er Yuan did not want to accept it, because the soldiers were very tired and needed time to buffer.
Seeing that Er Yuan vetoed the proposal, he was anxious, and hurriedly explained the benefits and disadvantages, if the party is tired, then the enemy must be fatigued, and this is the time to compete for endurance.
If you don't press forward step by step, then when Zhao Yun's cavalry recovers, if you want to find an opportunity, I'm afraid it won't be so easy.
The analysis is not wrong, once the cavalry recovers from fatigue, then the combat power and flexibility will definitely improve by several stages.
At that time, if you want to besiege or fight, Yuan's army will be inferior, and if the field infantry wants to encircle and kill the cavalry, then it is necessary to lead them into an ambush point, otherwise they will not be able to keep them at all.
Therefore, taking advantage of the weakness of the cavalry, taking the opportunity to storm for a while is the best policy.
You must know that the cavalry led by Zhao Yun can be said to be the top cavalry in the north, and its equipment and supply are all priorities.
This is related to Li Huiyi's love for Zhao Yun, he has always loved Zhao Yun before, and he also feels sorry for the fact that he did not lead the cavalry alone in history.
You must know that Zhao Yun was born as a cavalryman, but unfortunately after following Liu Bei to Yizhou, the cavalry became a baby bump, and even if there were, it would not be his turn at all.
Liu Bei's employment seems fair, but all important soldiers and horses are handed over to his henchmen.
