Gao Gan couldn't help himself, and was swept to the forefront of the fierce battle by layers of big waves. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

The soldiers in northern Xinjiang were in strict battle formations, cooperating with each other, both offensive and defensive, and extremely sharp. Gao Gan felt that his opponent was like an impenetrable "city wall", every time he cut down and every shot pierced in, it was a hard shield, and he couldn't see the defending enemy at all. And the spears that rushed out from behind the shield were as dense as the trees, and the long arrows that were shot were like a raging storm that made people nowhere to hide.

Gao Gan roared angrily, and the war knife was like chopping melons and vegetables, and his shield seemed to be an iron plate, unmoved, undamaged.

Gao Gan reluctantly took a few steps back, panting and trying to relieve his breath, but the "iron plate" in front of him suddenly cracked, and three spears and two crossbows appeared in front of Gao Gan.

Gao Gan's eyes suddenly widened, and he opened his mouth to let out a desperate exclamation.

The crossbow arrow roared sharply, and it was nailed to Gao Gan's chest in an instant. Four crossbow arrows crashed into the armor, leaving two deep pits in the armor from the spark sputter. Two crossbow arrows pierced Gao Gan's lower abdomen and nailed to the ground with two beads of blood. Gao Gan was unsteady on his feet, and was knocked upside down by the impact of the crossbow arrow.

At the moment when his body was flying backwards, three spears plunged into his body at the same time, and blood immediately flowed from his shoulder, lower abdomen, and left thigh.

Gao Gan flew up, and a terrible howl rushed out of his mouth at this time.

He fell into the arms of his guard. Seeing the guards hugging him and screaming loudly, he felt that the screams were getting quieter and quieter, as if they were coming from the distant sky.

He was picked up by the guards and quickly retreated through the dense crowd. He felt his body bleed, he felt his life slipping.

He opened his eyes hard, saw the blood-colored sunset on the horizon, saw the gorgeous sunset, he wanted to raise his head to take a closer look, but he didn't have the strength anymore.

He let out a long breath, then slowly closed his eyes.

Gao Gan was put to the ground.

The adjutant general was covered in blood, with a spear in his hand, and limped in front of Gao Gan with the support of the guards.

Gao Gan was killed. The adjutant general was discouraged, kneeling on the ground weakly, he could no longer control his emotions, and tears poured out.

"General, the right flank of the army was broken through by the Northern Xinjiang Army, and Li Guangbi and Hu Ban rushed to kill them on both sides, and they were already approaching the Chinese army."

"General, Xu Rong's cavalry has once again broken through the left flank of the army and is killing the Chinese army."

……

The heralds swarmed in, and the frightened shouts made the lieutenant almost collapse.

"General, give the order quickly. If the Northern Frontier Army breaks through the left and right flanks and hits the Central Army, we will be divided and surrounded by the Northern Frontier Army. A military commander leaned close to the adjutant general's ear and asked in a low voice, "General, are we attacking or retreating?" ”

The lieutenant wiped away his tears and looked up into the distance.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, Han Sui's battle flag was still fluttering in the wind, but the speed of the big flag was moving slower and slower, and around the big flag, the battle flag of the Northern Frontier Army was getting denser and denser, and it had formed a trend of encirclement.

If you want to kill at this moment, you must break through the resistance of the Northern Frontier Army and join Han Sui.

Han Sui killed desperately, obviously trying to help him break through. After the two armies converged, the strength doubled, and with the current strength of the Northern Xinjiang Army, it was impossible to encircle and annihilate it, so that the army could not only successfully break through the encirclement of the Northern Xinjiang Army, but also safely retreat back to Chang'an.

However, will the Northern Frontier Army give itself time to break through?

The war drums of "knock knock ......" alarm rose to the sky.

The cavalry of Northern Xinjiang is getting closer and closer to the Chinese army, and even the infantry of the Northern General Li Guangbi and Hu Ban have also been killed. At this time, if he withdrew to the rear to meet Liu Shao, he could still keep the army, and if he continued to attack, he would obviously be separated and annihilated by the Northern Xinjiang Army.

It was going to be dark soon, and it was impossible for the Xiliang people to hold out until midnight, and it was impossible for them to break through the resistance of the Northern Frontier Army before dark.

The battle is over.

"Command the ministries to withdraw to the rear." The adjutant general shook his head painfully, pointed to the battlefield in front of him, and said to the generals, "Lower General Gao's battle flag and tell Han Sui that General Gao has died in battle, and we have lost the strength to fight again, please ask him to withdraw his troops quickly." ”

………………

"Gao Gan is dead." Zhang Liao could hardly believe his eyes, and he rushed to the front of the battle with his horse to the cheers of the soldiers.

Yuan's army retreated quickly, and the formation was extremely chaotic. Gao Gan's handsome banner has indeed disappeared, and it is Gao Gan's lieutenant general who now commands Yuan's army. The morale of Yuan's army was dealt a fatal blow, and they no longer had the ability to break through, unless a miracle happened.

Zhang Liao looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, ecstatic, and ordered repeatedly.

"Order Li Guangbi and Hu Ban, lead the army to cover and kill, surround them, and surround them."

"Tell Yue Fei, Yang Ye, and Huaxiong again to withdraw from the battle and strengthen the defense line before dark."

"Order generals Xie Xuan and Zhuge Jun to reorganize the battle formation on the spot to ensure that the army still has the strength to fight again."

"Order Xu Rong and Xian Yuyin to lead the army to the west, encircle and annihilate the Xiliang army, and encircle and annihilate Han Sui."

"Blow the trumpet, blow the trumpet...... Zhang Liao raised his hand and shouted, "Reorganize the queue, reorganize the queue, and follow me to besiege and kill the Xiliang people......"

The horn sounded. The cavalry of the northern frontier turned their horses, followed Zhang Liao's handsome banner, and hurried towards the battlefield to the west.

………………

Han Sui looked up to the sky and screamed.

The war horse stood upright, raising its hooves and neighing, as if it wanted to vent all the grief and despair in its chest with its master.

The Xiliang army slowly stopped, the horns of retreat came and went, and the various departments urgently changed their battle formations, and the battlefield was chaotic.

Gao Gan died, died at this most critical juncture. The Yuan army lost its commander, lost its morale, lost its determination and courage to break through, and lost the battle.

In order to repay Han Sui's rescue, Yuan Jun lowered Gao Gan's battle flag at the first time, passed the news of Gao Gan's death to the Xiliang people, and asked them to retreat quickly. Yuan Jun's approach was tantamount to completely burying himself, but it gave the Xiliang people time to retreat.

"Withdraw, withdraw...... Ma Chao turned his horse back, looked at the sky-high smoke and dust swept from both wings of the battlefield, and shouted in despair, "Withdraw quickly......"

"They're all here, they're all here......" Liang Xing was almost suffocated in nervousness as he faced the dark cavalry army around him, "Let's rush out, rush out quickly......"

"Brothers, fight to the death, fight to the death......" The rear army of the Xiliang people became an assault front army. The horse took the lead, and led the cavalry to rush and kill, "tear apart the enemy formation, and kill a bloody road." ”

The Xiliang people reversed the direction of attack in the shortest possible time, and the cavalry army of more than 20,000 infantry under the command of Han Sui advanced rapidly to the southwest.

In the northeast of the battlefield, the surviving Yuan army, under the leadership of Liu Shao and others, contracted its defense and held its own position.

To the east and north of it are the armies of Yue Fei, Hua Xiong, and Li Le of the Northern Xinjiang Army. To the west of it was the army of Li Guangbi, Hu Ban, Xie Xuan, Zhuge Jun, and Han Xian. To the south of it is the army of Yang Ye, Hao Zhao, and Hao Meng. The Northern Xinjiang army surrounded the demoralized Yuan army with about 100,000 troops.

In the southwest of the battlefield, Han Sui and Ma Chao led the Xiliang army to break through.

Zhang Liao, Xu Rong, and Xian Yuyin led the army to attack its rear formation, Li Cunxiao, Gao Chong, Lan Rong, and others led the army to attack its left and right flanks, and Gao Changgong and Huangfu Li led the army to block the Xiliang people head-on.

Zhang Liao was enraged by the Xiliang people, he threw Li Yi's orders behind him, and commanded about 35,000 cavalry to besiege on all sides,

"At all costs, besiege and kill the Xiliang army and kill Han Sui."

"Knock knock knock......" The Northern Xinjiang Army beat all the war drums, and the drums were earth-shattering, and the entire battlefield trembled in the drums.

"Woo woo woo ......" all the trumpets sounded, and the loud and passionate trumpets resounded throughout the field.

The soldiers in northern Xinjiang were excited, and they went forward one after another, forgetting their lives and death, and desperately pursued them.

The people of Xiliang were surrounded on all sides and were in danger.

………………

In the middle of the battlefield, the Xiliang Chinese Army.

Han Yi, Yang Qiu, Cheng Yi, and Cheng Yin received an urgent letter from Yang Fu on the way to retreat. Han Sui and the Xiliang Army failed to rescue Gao Gan, and were surrounded by the Northern Xinjiang Corps, and they were in danger, so they asked the generals to withdraw their troops immediately and quickly support the battlefield on the right flank.

Han Yi and the others were still nervous, worried that the army would be scolded by Han Sui if they withdrew from the left flank battlefield without Han Sui's permission, but who knew that the battle situation was changing rapidly, and now even Han Sui himself was surrounded by the Northern Frontier Army.

Han Yi was worried about his father's safety, so he asked Cheng Yin to lead the infantry army to continue to retreat, and he, Yang Qiu, and Cheng Yi led the cavalry to quickly rush to the Chinese army.

Yang Fu was in a hurry, sweating profusely, and was surprised and delighted to see Han Yi arrive with reinforcements quickly.

Yang Fu briefly explained the battle situation, and said anxiously: "Hurry, quickly support the right-wing battlefield and help the lord break through, quickly, quickly...... You have to rush forward with all the cavalry and take the Northern Frontier Army by surprise. ”

"The cavalry on the left flank is here." Yang Qiu smiled bitterly, "Hou Junji, the general of the Northern Frontier Army, suddenly came out of our flank, and we were caught off guard and forced to retreat. ”

Yang Fu was stunned for a moment, and blurted out, "Is the loss big?" And how many cavalry? ”

"About five thousand people." Yang Qiu said, "The army of foot soldiers was once besieged and suffered great losses. Cheng Yin is leading them to withdraw to the Chinese army. Li Kan has already died. ”

Yang Fu's heart ached, his face became more and more pale, and he said in a panic: "Withdraw the army, we will withdraw the army immediately, and we will withdraw now." Go and pick up your lord, quickly. ”

Han Yi, Yang Qiu, and Cheng Yi turned their horses and wanted to leave, when they heard the horn in the rear of the Chinese army, and a cavalry suddenly appeared in the rear of the army with skyrocketing smoke and dust.

Everyone was shocked, and all of them changed color.

"It's our people, it's Zhang Ji and Jiang Yin." Han Yi suddenly lost his voice and exclaimed, "Could it be that Chang'an City has been lost?" ”

After Han Sui led his army into Zhengbaiqu, those who stayed in Chang'an were Zhang Meng, Zhang Ji and Jiang Yin. Now that Zhang Ji and Jiang Jian have appeared on the battlefield with a large army, the fate of Chang'an City is more than auspicious. (To be continued.) )
