Chapter 604: Grassland War (4)

When the cavalry is not accelerating, it is only a wooden stake, and perhaps even inferior to a foot soldier. The foot soldiers still have spears and swords and shields in their hands. The cavalry's powerful attack power is almost half in the speed of the war horse. And when the Xianbei people had just gotten on the horse and had no time to speed up the war horse, the outcome of this war was already doomed.

Zhang Xiu and Lu Yi rushed into the camp of the Xianbei people, slashed and stabbed with swords, and then the unreasonable people used horsepower to brutally collide and trample. Soon, the Xianbei people collapsed.

Some of them didn't even know what was going on, and some of them died before they even had time to climb up their horses. Those Xianbei people who had just turned over and got on their horses, in the eyes of the Han army, were fixed live targets. In the distance, a rain of arrows struck, and when he got close, he put the knife horizontally, and with the help of horse speed, it was enough to disembowel the Xianbei people.

After slashing for a while, Zhang Xiu was distressed, of course, he was not distressed by the Xianbei people, but by the war horse. So he stopped slaughtering, but began to persuade him to surrender. He sent out small groups of cavalry and moved around him, on the one hand, intercepting and killing the Xianbei people who tried to resist, and on the other hand, shouting: "Those who surrender will not be killed!" Those who descend will not die! ”

The same is true on the side of Koyi, in the continuous shouts of those who surrender to avoid death, the Xianbei people who originally wanted to fight to the death and then take the opportunity to escape, after a little measurement in their hearts, threw down the weapon in their hands and began to bow to the ground to ask for surrender. You may not be able to kill, and if you do, you may not be able to escape. Since surrender can avoid death, it is better to save your life first. After the diehards were killed one by one, the whole steppe fell silent.

The wind blew and the smell of blood wafted in. Zhang Xiu sniffled, thinking that this smell was very good. He ordered his men to capture the captives, and then asked Ma Dai to lead his army to chase the fleeing herdsmen. By the way, the cattle and sheep that were frightened and ran around were all caught.

Looking at Duan Xuan's side again, when the battle outside the city started, Duan Xuan also broke out and led his troops into the city. In the surrendered city, most of the fighting forces lived outside the city, and some of the young men in the city were grazing outside. The vast majority of people in the city are old and weak women and children, if they can withstand Duan Xuan, not to mention that there is an unstoppable Xu Huang in Duan Xuan's army.

In a short time, the Han army killed a bloody road and went straight to the city. After the limited number of soldiers and horses were slaughtered, the whole city fell.

Just cleaned the battlefield almost. The herdsmen who didn't go far were also arrested. Zhang Xiu's scouts came to report. said that he was ordered to contact General Lu, and he wanted to come and see General Lu break the Xianbei army. Xianbei Shan Yu Budugen had already led the defeated soldiers to the surrendered city. The scouts ran wildly all the way, just to report the news to Zhang Xiu before the defeated army arrived. After supporting him, the person was already tired and fainted.

When Zhang Xiu heard this, he helped him down to rest first. Then he asked Lu Yi and Duan Xuan to come, and let them lead their troops to ambush after the surrendered city, and then they were stationed in the city. Wait for the root of the step to come, block it under the surrendered city, and then attack it together with Lu Bu. Anyway, no matter what, we can't let this Xianbei people escape.

Koji Yi and Duan Xuan followed the order. When the steps come to the root, this is the situation in front of you. When Bu Dugen saw the Han army appear at the head of the city, he couldn't help but see a black eye, his blood surged, and he almost fainted. The wealth of countless tribes and tribes in the surrendered city fell into the hands of the Han people in this way?

Bu Dugen looked up at the city, gritted his teeth, his eyes were red, and asked Zhang Xiu: "Where are my tribesmen?" ”

Zhang Xiu smiled lightly at the head of the city and said, "Cut it!" ”

Budugen's mind was empty, what, cut it? So many lives, countless families, you just cut it with one sentence? The Xianbei army under the city was also in a commotion, and even faintly heard the sound of sorrow. They accepted Shan Yu's order and followed Shan Yu to the south, and the little wife and children settled in the surrendered city, and now the surrendered city is occupied by the Han army, and the fate of the wife and children can be imagined.

Budugen was still stunned, and someone next to him whispered: "Shan Yu, the surrendered city has been lost, and then there are chasing soldiers, at this time the army is unstable, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time, you can go quickly, and wait for the coming day." ”

Budugen reacted, glanced at the city fiercely, and without saying a word, led the army away. Zhang Xiu laughed in her heart, she still wants to leave when she arrives here, can she go?

Budugen didn't dare to go east, because he had suffered a defeat, if he went east to find Ke Biyong, the two would have to fight, and then he would suffer the loss. Now there are pursuers in the south, and surrendered cities in the north. Although it was possible to bypass the surrendered city and continue to the north, Bu Dugen finally got rid of Lu Bu, but he didn't dare to expose his back to Zhang Xiu here. So there was only one option left, and that was to go all the way west.

The West was his sphere of influence, extending from Bingzhou to Dunhuang in Hexi and even the Western Regions. There are dozens of cities he has there, go there, lick his wounds, and recuperate. It's not too late to come back and take revenge.

Zhang Xiu couldn't help but smile when he saw Budugen leading his troops westward. He also thought that Budugen was going to flee east to Kebineng. So in the east he also laid down a corps. As for the West, Koji Yoshiki is there. So Zhang Xiu passed on the order to leave Ma Dai to guard the surrender city. Then let Duan Xuan raise troops together, and attack Du Gen with himself.

In order to escape for his life, Budugen also fought hard, leaving most of the people and horses behind, and then fled west. These who stayed behind and broke off are all diehards of Budugen. They also knew that if Shan Yu was not allowed to escape, Western Xianbei would really be finished. So they all fought desperately, regardless of life and death, and fought with the Han army. Zhang Xiu was not in a hurry, there was Lu Yi in front of him to block him, and Lu Bu was chasing after him. Unless there are wings on the back of the root, there is no way to escape. So he just surrounded this severed Xianbei from a distance, and then shot them with bows and arrows.

Budugen didn't go far forward, only to see another Han rider emerge on the grassland. Budugen couldn't help but feel cold, how long did the Han people deploy in order to deal with Xianbei? We haven't killed it yet, why did they come here?

Bu Dugen naturally would not have thought that through the mutual market or grassland trading, as well as the Southern Xiongnu and Wuhuan two Hu people as the leading party, the wind and grass on the grassland had long been known to Liu Bei. The efficiency of Liu Bei's shogunate was not comparable to that of the Hu people. The Xianbei people were defeated, that is a normal thing.

When the Xianbei people saw the Han army appear in the west, they couldn't help but be in chaos, and after Budugen left another part of the men and horses, they ignored it and went to the west again. Ko Yi didn't care either, but just sent hundreds of cavalry to follow, and waited for the main force on his side to eliminate this broken Xianbei, and then traced to chase Bu Dugen.

When Lu Bu led the army to arrive, he saw that the surrendered city had already erected Han flags, and in the west of the surrendered city, there was already a shouting of killing.
