Chapter 230: The whole army collapses

.. lā?. 2. "Xuanjia Iron Horseman, invincible in the world!" ”

"Xuanjia Iron Horseman, invincible in the world!"

A huge siege began, the soldiers of the Xuanjia Army held torches high, shouted battle slogans in unison, and launched a wave-like attack on the enemy in the encirclement, the arrows flew like locusts, the sword light flashed, and wherever the iron hooves went, the Qingzhou soldiers fell in pieces, turning into a bloody corpse!

At the same time, the gate of Pengcheng opened, and a strange team walked out from inside, these soldiers were all strong men over eight feet tall, wearing iron helmets, wearing double layers of heavy armor, cowhide combat boots under their feet, the whole body was protected from wind and rain, and they were also holding a double-edged long knife made of pure steel, which was the ~~ Mo knife soldier of Megatron!

Because the equipment on their bodies is too heavy, the requirements for the battlefield environment are extremely harsh, mountains, woods, swamps, sand...... Even on the hard plains, they can only attack from a short distance, but at this moment, it is perfect to attack the enemies who are crowded in the encirclement!

Under the leadership of Da Niu, five thousand Mo sword soldiers lined up in ten columns, with the rumbling war drums neatly advancing, the blades were raised high, three steps and one slash, everywhere they went, people and horses were broken, blood flowed like a river, nothing could stop their progress, it was definitely a blade, invincible!

As for the Qingzhou soldiers in the encirclement, the rapid march of three days and three nights was already exhausted, and they were able to barely hold on to the dream of plundering money to boost their morale, but as a result, the hopes were as great as the disappointment, the roles of the 'hunter' and the 'prey' changed instantly, and the soldiers who stepped into the trap were already frightened, and at this time they were hit so hard, who still had the heart to resist?

"Brothers, run, the Xuanjia Army is coming!"

"The city is Xiao Lang with a ghost face, a demon who specializes in eating human flesh, don't be caught by him!"

"Run, go to Longmen Ferry and take a boat, go back to your hometown in Qingzhou, stay away from this demon!"

……………………………………

Before Yuan Tan could make any reaction, tens of thousands of troops shouted, turned their heads and ran, what promotion to official wealth, what beauty jade silk, Lao Tzu doesn't want it, as long as you can pick up a small life, then thank God!

"Hehe, the outside is strong and the middle is dry, there is nothing to show for it, Hebei soldiers and horses, it's nothing more than that!" On the city tower, looking at the chaotic Qingzhou soldiers and horses, Xiao Yi's little face showed a cold smile, like a vicious wolf that had been in ambush for a long time, showing the weakness of its prey!

This ambush, for the sake of concealment, Xiao Yi mobilized not many soldiers and horses, that is, 10,000 Xuanjia troops, 5,000 Mo sword soldiers, plus a little garrison in Pengcheng, the total number is no more than 30,000 people, as for the torches all over the mountains, it is just a bluff, many of them are local people making up the numbers, and some are simply scarecrows, used to scare birds!

On the other hand, the Qingzhou soldiers under the command of Yuan Tan have 60,000 people, if they can obey the command, stabilize their positions, rely on the absolute superiority in troops, and calmly resist the enemy, it is impossible to turn defeat into victory, but it is still possible to break out of the encirclement and retreat with their whole body!

Take a step back and say, even if they don't have the courage to break through, then set up a formation on the spot and hold on firmly, if the Xuanjia Army wants to eat them, it will take a lot of effort, and if they can't get it, they will have to break a few big teeth!

It's a pity that from Yuan Tan to the ordinary soldiers in the army, after seeing the banner of 'Ghost Face Xiao Lang', they all lost the courage to continue fighting, but chose to turn around and run away.

"Pass the order, swing away the corner of the encirclement, let the Qingzhou soldiers out, hunt the wolves, track them for thousands of miles, let's eat them little by little!" Xiao Yi waved his hand, and the sound of the horn of the troop transfer quickly spread out, and the 'fire dragon', which was already surrounded on all sides, immediately revealed a gap, this is the way to live for the Qingzhou soldiers, and it is also the road to send them to hell!

The trapped beasts are still fighting, although the Qingzhou soldiers are in a mess, after all, there are many people, in order to rush out of a way to live, the combat effectiveness that bursts out is still very amazing, Xiao Yi doesn't want his subordinates to suffer unnecessary losses, so he is ready to play a protracted war, a war of attrition!

Sure enough, the Qingzhou soldiers who were about to fight to the death, suddenly saw the way to live, and immediately rushed to the gap like a swarm, and then fled all the way to the north, many soldiers threw away their blades and armor in order to be light, and when they were sweating profusely, in order to dissipate heat, many people even chose to run naked, and when they started a war, they couldn't ask for face if they wanted to die, except for the boots on their feet, all the others were thrown!

"No one is allowed to run, immediately regroup the queue and withdraw in order!"

"There are those who do not obey orders, and there is no forgiveness...... I'll kill! Kill! ”

Besides, Yuan Tan, although he was also panicked, he did not forget his basic military qualities, knowing that such a swarm of escaping was to send him to death, after getting out of the encirclement, he hurriedly erected the military flag and shouted loudly, trying to reorganize the team and evacuate the dangerous place in a planned way!

It's a pity that the army's heart is in turmoil, the soldiers are busy fleeing for their lives, who still obeys the military order, you call yours, I run mine, people shout horses, it becomes a pot of porridge, and in the end, like the sea water at low tide, Yuan Tan is also wrapped in ......, it's completely finished, let's run together!

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Wolves hunting, tiptoeing thousands of miles, forbearance, one blow kills!

A long-distance pursuit battle began, the strength of the two sides is the difference between heaven and earth, Xiao Yi's Xuanjia iron cavalry is waiting for work, the brothers have long been full of food and drink, just waiting for the enemy to take the bait, and the soldiers have one person and three horses, can take turns to ride, when tired, lie on the back of the horse to rest, thirsty with water bladders, hungry with dry food belts, catch up for a few days and nights is not a problem!

Look at the Qingzhou army again, most of the 60,000 soldiers are infantry, and they use two legs to compete with other people's four hooves, which is a big loss in itself, and it was a rapid march for three consecutive days, and the legs and stomachs are running cramps.

This is not counting, everyone is a soldier and a fighter, bitter, tired, and can grit his teeth and persevere, but the hungry stomach makes people unbearable, when marching, in order to speed up, Yuan Tan asked the soldiers to bring only three days of rations, thinking that after entering Pengcheng, they would have a good meal, but as a result, people had already taken precautions, and the whole army was ambushed, and even their lives were almost gone, and there were food supplies there, with an empty stomach, and they had to run away with their lives, which felt really sad and sad...... Death due to sorrow!

People are unlucky, drink cold water and stuff their teeth, the same is true for the army, those cities along the way, when the Qingzhou army first came, the people beat gongs and drums to welcome, and they sent cattle and sheep, wine and meat, and also sent guides to guide the way, and they were very enthusiastic!

When Yuan Tan ran back with the defeated soldiers, it was not bad, the people were still so enthusiastic, that is, the things that greeted them had changed, bows and arrows, rolling wood, thunder stones, hot oil, ......, all of them were tilted towards the Qingzhou soldiers, and their dream of going into the city to repair and get some food was completely destroyed!

In desperation, the hungry soldiers began to slaughter the war horses, those generals and colonels with mounts were unlucky, the hungry red-eyed soldiers didn't care about the three, seven and twenty-one, overturned the war horses, pulled out the knife and began to cut the meat to eat, it was too late to cook, and the pot had already been thrown away, it was raw food, and they ate a mouthful of blood foam one by one, living like a group of crazy beasts!

Some generals of the Yuan army still wanted to shake their majesty and loudly reprimand those subordinates, but before they could say a few words, they were slashed to the ground by the soldiers.

After several incidents of soldiers sharing the flesh and blood of the generals, Yuan Tan also became precarious, he was still smart, in order to save his life, he took the initiative to sacrifice the war horse, of course, he didn't forget to cut a horse's leg to carry, they are all ordinary people, he is also hungry!

In addition to exhaustion and hunger, the Qingzhou soldiers don't even have the right to rest, whenever they are exhausted from running and want to stop and rest for a while, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves will sound, and the Xuanjia army will kill like a whirlwind, and after a stampede, it will disappear immediately, and so on, day and night, the non-stop attack will not let you sleep, and it will not let you rest!

Either continue to run, or be hacked and killed, choose one of the two, or run, the last bit of potential of the Qingzhou Army has also been squeezed out, and soldiers fall to the ground and die from time to time along the way, all of them are exhausted to death!

This is Xiao Yi's 'wolf pack tactics', and in his opinion, 60,000 Qingzhou soldiers are like a huge bison, with rough skin and thick meat, and infinite strength, if you rush up and bite it, not only can you not eat its meat, but you may also be injured by the horns, the best way is to torture it, not let it rest, not let it eat, from time to time rush up to leave a few wounds, let the blood of the prey drain little by little, and finally, it will inevitably fall to the ground!

Xiao Yi's tactics were very successful, under the destruction of such ruthless tactics, the Qingzhou soldiers were tortured in pain, it was even more uncomfortable than death, many people were really tired and died on the way to escape, and some of them were smart, throwing knives and guns, squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands, dead or alive, and still having enough to eat when they were prisoners!

Although there were many difficulties and countless casualties, the Qingzhou soldiers kept running, day and night, because they still had hope in their hearts, that is...... Longmen Ferry, there are still 5,000 men and horses in response, and there are hundreds of boats that can send them across the river, as long as they return to their own territory, they will escape and ascend to heaven!

With such a goal, the Qingzhou soldiers continued to flee for their lives, 60,000 horses were like snowballs under the scorching sun, constantly melting, and when Yuan Tan came to the edge of the Yellow River with these remaining soldiers, there were less than 20,000 soldiers and horses left, as for the others, they were either taken prisoner or died under the iron hoof scimitar of the Xuanjia army!

"Longmendu, my God, we finally escaped!"

"Woohoo! ~Ghost Face Xiao Lang~ You butcher, Lao Tzu will never step into Xuzhou again! ”

"It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive, it's all right to be alive!"

Looking at the rolling Yellow River, the soldiers of the Yuan army cried bitterly, and finally escaped, compared to those brothers who fell on the road, they were lucky, and many people secretly swore that they would never come to Xuzhou again in this life, let alone be the enemy of the 'ghost-faced Xiao Lang', and fight with others, at most, they would die on the battlefield, and fight with this guy, it would be better to live than to die!

Longmendu was in front of them, and the remaining soldiers supported each other and walked towards the hope in their hearts, but soon they cried louder, the difference was that they were happy before, and now they were desperate!

Longmen crossing, above the camp, the original 'Yuan' character banner disappeared, replaced with a military flag with a red background and a black heart, and in the center was a big 'Cao' character; As for the generals guarding the ferry, they were still a pair of brothers, but instead of Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang, they were replaced by Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen!

As soon as Yuan Tan's army crossed the river, Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen's brothers raided Longmendu, seized the barracks, closed the gate deadly, and the ships were burned, and the soldiers of the Yuan army wanted to cross the Yellow River, unless they flew over!

"It's over! Finished! …… It's completely over! ”

There is no way forward, there are chasing soldiers behind, the last bit of hope of the Yuan army has also been shattered, after three days and three nights of life and death torment, the soldiers have reached the limit, now the way of life is cut off, many people's spirits are directly broken, some people sit on the ground and wait for death, some people look at the other side of the river and cry bitterly, more people scatter and flee......

Faced with such a desperate situation, Yuan Tan was also dumbfounded, and wanted to find someone to discuss, but looking around, there was no one, Chen Deng had already died in the chaos, and was trampled into meat by the horseshoe of the Xuanjia Army, as for the 'Uncle Liu Huang' who gave him advice, he disappeared early!

"Hey! …… me! "Now, Yuan Tan has completely given up, sat on the ground, and left everything to fate!

Looking at the completely defeated Yuan army, Xiao Yi knew that the time had come to strike the final blow:

"The military order of the capital of the capital: those who capture Yuan Tan alive will be rewarded with a thousand gold, and the official will be promoted to one level!"

"There is a person who kills Liu Bei, a reward of 20,000 gold, an official promotion of five levels, and the governor of Pontus personally toasts and congratulates him!"

In Xiao Yi's opinion, although Yuan Tan is the commander of this army of soldiers and horses, he is just a small loach at best, Liu Bei is a hidden dragon who can set off monstrous waves, last time he ran away from Wancheng, this time, he must not be allowed to escape alive, and it is undoubtedly killed, not even alive, as long as he is dead, not alive!

"Kill Liu Bei and reward 20,000 gold!"

"Kill Liu Bei, the official will be promoted to the fifth level!"

"Kill Liu Bei, the Metropolitan Governor toasts...... Kill! ”

The high-ranking officials were rewarded, and the governor of the capital personally toasted, who was not tempted by such a reward, the soldiers of the Xuanjia Army rushed into the chaotic army, slashed the heads with long knives, and cut off one to see if it was a big ear, no, just continue to cut!

"Liu Bei, the net of heaven and earth has been laid, see where you are still fleeing!"
