Chapter 789: The Battle of Luoshui (3)

Zhang He was keenly aware of the changes in the battlefield, he threw down the broadsword in his hand, took the halberd from the hands of the auxiliaries, and rushed out of the array first. He roared, and the halberd pierced into the body of the cavalry in front of him, and then swung horizontally, cutting the opponent's waist into two pieces, and sprinkled the sky with a rain of blood. Under the leadership of Zhang He, more and more halberd warriors counterattacked from the heavily defended positions, just stabbing and waving, simply harvesting lives.

Li Xu is going crazy, these cavalry are his hard work for many years, and they are also the team used by the Marquis of Hefei to start his business, but he didn't expect to be planted here in the first battle. Now these halberders have come out of formation, it is a good time to destroy the enemy and break the formation, but the cavalry has been emboldened, and after such a long battle or slaughter, many people have reached the verge of collapse. Li Xu gritted his teeth and said loudly: "Retreat, retreat across the river." ”

Before this word of retreat came out, Cheng Yu, who had been watching in the dark for a long time, immediately shouted: "Quick, beat the drum and enter the army, don't let them run." With the sound of the drums, Dian Wei and Wei Yan immediately rushed out on their horses, and Lu Yi led the first camp to follow at a trot, only Zhang He's halberd warriors still advanced steadily and unhurriedly, killing people when they saw them, and killing horses when they saw them.

Qiu Ming glanced at Zhou Tai, who was following him: "The enemy army is scattered, it is the time to grab the merit, why don't you go?" ”

Zhou Tai shook his head and said: "I'm a pro-soldier, as long as I protect you, don't take those credits." After a pause, he added: "Those two guys have BMWs, and they naturally kill them quickly and a lot, how can I rob them?" It's better not to go at all than to be too embarrassed. ”

Haha, it turned out that it was for this, Tyumen smiled: "In that case, I will also get you a good horse in the future?" How is it? ”

Zhou Tai immediately smiled: "That's naturally good, but you have to get one for Jiang Qin too, otherwise that kid's eyes are red and he will definitely rob me of my ride." ”

At this time, Dian Wei Weiyan had already rushed into the cavalry formation, brandishing his weapons and slashing indiscriminately, and in a short time he would kill a sea of blood. Koji Yi quietly followed behind the two of them, specializing in picking up and mending knives. Now that the victory and defeat have been divided, of course he is reluctant to waste any more crossbow arrows, and only orders his subordinates to use the infantry bow to harvest some remnants of the enemy casually, and he has actually gained a lot of combat exploits.

Seeing that the cavalry running in the front was about to flee to the shore of Luoshui, Qiu Ming said: "Isn't it time to notify Yuan Tan to release the water?" Chen Gong shook his head and said: "We have won a big victory in this battle, there is no need to use other organs, let's keep it to deal with the army of the Marquis of Hefei." ”

Tyumen had to say anything more, and a fast horse flew from the direction of the city gate, announcing that he would immediately enter the city to meet the Son of Heaven. Tyumen immediately put down everything at hand and galloped away with the comer.

As soon as he entered the Kaiyang Gate, Qiu Ming was surrounded by the crowd that poured out of the city, whether he knew it or not, he praised him, and a white-bearded old man also raised his thumb and said: "Sure enough, it is a famous teacher who is a high apprentice, the teacher is a military god, you are now famous in a war, the country has good materials, the old man is very pleased." ”

Qiu Ming vaguely remembered that this old man had denounced him in the Deyang Hall during the day, and now he didn't bother to pay attention to it, and just asked, "Where is Your Majesty?" ”

Liu Hong was sitting in the arrow tower at the highest point of the city wall, and the excited look when he watched the battle was swept away, but he was replaced by a dignified face. Seeing Qiu Ming walk in, he was silent for a while before saying to Qiu Ming: "Today's battle, are you winning?" ”

Qiu Ming forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, and did not show the slightest smugness: "This group of mutant cavalry is about 15,000 to 20,000 people, and now less than 3,000 can escape the river, in a sense, it should be a victory." ”

Liu Hong snorted coldly: "Become a citizen? Is it really a change of people? If the people can afford to raise so many cavalry, I'm afraid that my country will be unstable. He lowered his voice again and said, "Do you think these people will have anything to do with the Marquis of Hefei?" ”

Qiu Ming looked at Zhang Rang and Yuan Shu standing beside Liu Hong speechlessly, whether they have anything to do with Hefei Hou, these two people are also very clear. He pondered the words and said, "It is impossible for the people to have such power, someone must be making trouble in this matter, and when their rear army arrives tomorrow, everything will be settled." ”

Yuan Shu suddenly said in a loud voice: "As far as I can see today, the enemy army has 20,000 forward cavalry alone, if they come again tomorrow, can you still resist the enemy?" ”

Qiu Ming chuckled: "I only have a few thousand people at hand now, and if the army is overwhelmed, I don't dare to say how long I can stop it, so I can only delay as much as possible and wait for the general to come back." ”

Liu Hong sighed: "Since this is the case, I will issue an edict as soon as I return to the palace, and I will summon He Jin to return to the army." ”

Zhang Rang was taken aback and said, "Your Majesty, if the general returns to the army, what will happen to Youzhou?" Could it be that Yuyang Zhang Ju is pretending to be a puppet emperor? ”

Liu Hong said angrily: "Now that the people have been beaten to Luoyang, what are you still thinking about in Youzhou?" Prioritize, right? ”

Zhang Rang was stunned for a moment, since the Son of Heaven respected him as his father, it seemed that he had never spoken to him so harshly. He lowered his head slightly and said, "Your Majesty, why worry about changing the people?" Isn't Your Majesty's royal expedition a great victory today? ”

Liu Hong was a little happy: "You said that I am the royal driver?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty personally braved the arrows and stones and shouted and cheered for our soldiers on the city wall, so as to have today's great victory."

Yuan Shu was also unwilling to let Qiuming monopolize the great achievements, and immediately echoed: "What Gonggong Zhang said is very true, Your Majesty's divine power is powerful, and the royal drive is personally conquest, and others such as others only occupy Your Majesty's light, so we have such a small credit." ”

Liu Hong laughed, but Qiu Ming was full of bad feelings, he was busy planning these days, and in the end, all the credit became yours? Do you think this is a state-owned enterprise? At this time, he heard Liu Hong say with a smile: "According to what you said, tomorrow I will be able to defeat these mutants if I go on a personal expedition?" ”

Zhang asked Yuan Shu to say at the same time: "That's right. ”

Liu Hong nodded: "Since this is the case, then don't rush to summon He Jin back, and let him know that I can't do anything if I don't leave him." ”

Qiu Ming saw that Liu Hong seemed to be addicted, but he was afraid that it would be difficult to persuade him, so he had to retreat and ask the Son of Heaven to send a secret edict to approve Dong Zhuo's entry into Beijing. For Dong Zhuo, Liu Hong was not as jealous as He Jin, and immediately agreed.

When Qiu Ming returned to Cheng Yu in the Chen Palace, the battle had come to an end, and the two strategists who had been relaxed heard that the decision of the Son of Heaven was all covered with frost, and Cheng Yu spoke first: "If the general's soldiers and horses can't come back in time, then we will have a hard time." ”
