Chapter 0150: Intersection of Joy and Sorrow (The Third Subscription Request)
When Chu Yan heard the news that Zhang Jiao was seriously injured and unconscious and his life was dying, she couldn't accept this fact for a while, and she was disillusioned and grief-stricken for a while. He fell to his knees, lying on his whole body, and began to weep bitterly.
The Yellow Turbans of the Heavenly Death.
Zhang Jiao was unconscious at this juncture, and the blow to the Yellow Turban Army was fatal. The Yellow Turbans immediately fell into the abyss and were on the verge of collapse.
Now the Yellow Turban Army will need a period of hard fighting if it wants to hit the Youzhou Army hard, and the capture of Gaotang City cannot be done because of the serious shortage of troops, and the most realistic thing now is to keep the strength of the existing Yellow Turban Army and try to make a comeback in the future.
Chu Yan is aware of his responsibility, and now it is up to him whether he can calmly and safely lead the remaining hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban troops to evacuate the Gaotang battlefield.
Chu Yan was not an ordinary person after all, he gradually calmed down from his extreme grief and began to plan the evacuation plan of the Yellow Turban Army.
"Wang Dang, the news that my father is seriously injured and unconscious can be notified to the other leaders of the Yellow Turban Army?" Chu Yan asked softly.
Wang Dang shook his head and whispered, "Of course I don't dare to divulge such a big matter." Once the news of the dying life of the great virtuous and good teacher spreads, this battle should not be fought, and the Yellow Turban Army will immediately disperse in a hurry. Sun Qin and I are both subordinates of the Great Sage and Good Master, General Rengong is the younger brother of the Great Sage and Good Master, you are the righteous son of the Great Sage and Good Master, and now the Great Sage and Good Master can't be a director, so we will naturally help you. You immediately make up your mind, General Rengong and Sun Qin are waiting for me to reply in the camp. Now what? ”
Chu Yan said gratefully to Wang Dang, "Thank you, Third Uncle and Sun Qin. ”
Wang Dang shook his hand again and again, urging him to hurry up and make up his mind.
Chu Yan said without hesitation: "Withdraw." ”
………………
The golden gong sounded suddenly, and the continuous rapid and violent sound instantly spread to every corner of the battlefield.
The thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers surrounding Yue Fei and the others withdrew like a tide. They quickly retreated, along with their bulky defensive equipment.
The soldiers under the command of Yue Fei, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun suddenly survived, and they immediately cheered and excited.
Guan Yu raised his knife and shouted. It was as if he had repelled the enemy, and he was on his toes.
Yue Fei and Zhao Yun, who was standing behind him, glanced at each other, and the excitement of escaping death was overflowing, but both of them saw a trace of worry and sadness in each other's eyes.
The Yellow Turban Army, in the case of absolute superiority, suddenly retreated, why?
Most likely, Gaotang City has been captured by them.
Zhang Jiao captured Gaotang City. First of all, it will take into account that the rain is too heavy and the bad weather is not conducive to continuing the battle, if the Youzhou army has been hit hard, it is also a good choice to withdraw the troops into the city.
Not only Yue Fei thought so, but Gongsun Chan also thought so.
Gongsun Chan and his subordinates felt relieved to see the enemy quickly leaving the battlefield, but they were very uneasy. If Gaotang City is still captured by the Yellow Turban Army, then this battle will be in vain.
Yang Feng did not hesitate at all when he heard the sound of the golden gong. Immediately command the troops out of the battlefield. His troops were beaten badly by Li Yi's Youzhou army, and most of them were killed and wounded, which made him both heartbroken and angry.
It can be said that he was unlucky to return home. He was extremely reluctant to fight Li Yi, but he ended up fighting, and it was a face-to-face battle; Chu Yan, who had made careful preparations and wanted to fight a decisive battle with the Youzhou Iron Cavalry, did not get the opportunity to fight hard. I can only run to help.
Chu Yan took more than 10,000 horses from Yu Yigen to stay at the back of the army. They carried a large number of blocking equipment, and they were careful. Slowly retreat. He was most worried that Li Yi would chase after him and launch a fierce offensive. That would have been a disaster for the scarred and exhausted Yellow Turbans.
Now every soldier's life is very precious to the crumbling Yellow Turban Army.
From the east. The soldiers who were withdrawn from the battlefield on the west flanks flew past the covering troops without making any stops, and ran directly in the direction of the north city gate. The various army commanders received Chu Yan's orders one after another, and directly withdrew to Pingyuan City to the north, and did not choose the closer town of Juan.
Yang Feng's cloak is scattered. He was covered in blood and embarrassed. He flew to Chu Yan's side and roared angrily, "Yanzi, why do you want to retreat to the plain? Didn't the great sage and good teacher take Gao Tang City? ”
Chu Yan felt a pain in her heart, and tears suddenly welled up. He looked at Yang Feng blankly, tears kept flowing, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.
Yang Feng was shocked, tried his best to suppress the fear in his heart, and asked sharply, "What happened?" Say it quickly! ”
"Great sage and good teacher...... He was seriously injured and fell unconscious. Chu Yan choked up and whispered.
Yang Fengru was hit hard, stunned, he looked at Chu Yan with wide eyes, his face shocked and painful.
Yang Feng gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Yanzi, we can't go to the south, we have to withdraw to Hejian Country immediately, and then go west to Changshan Country and enter the Taihang Mountain ......."
………………
Li Yi heard the sound of the golden gong of the retreating Yellow Turban Army, and his heart suddenly became cold. He worked hard for a long time, but he still fell short, and Gaotang City still fell.
He stopped in the rain and watched helplessly as the Yellow Turban Army quickly disappeared into the vast wind and rain.
Tail chase? What's the point of catching up? What else can you do besides beheading more than 10,000 more?
He looked at the pouring rain in front of him and smiled helplessly.
Now it's raining heavily, and there is a white expanse between heaven and earth, and you can't see anything dozens of steps away at all, so what's the war?
Gao Tang lost, and this battle was even more meaningless.
"Lord, taking advantage of the retreat of the Yellow Turban Army and the unstable position, we will immediately kill it, kill it......" Dian Wei and Li Xun flew from the formation and shouted loudly.
"Teacher, what are you hesitating about, you can't miss the opportunity, you won't come again, immediately regroup your formation, let's kill all the way......" Tian Yu also flew over, and urged loudly, "Hurry up......"
Li Yi let out a long sigh and ordered, "Stop attacking." Ordered troops to assemble, immediately assembled. ”
Before the words fell, he heard an earth-shattering war drum suddenly from the direction of the West City Gate, and the soldiers of the Youzhou Iron Cavalry looked at it in shock.
………………
Yue Fei walked out of the wind and rain with more than 700 bloodstained soldiers and walked into Li Yi's field of vision.
Li Yi's eyes moistened. The soldiers were killed, Gao Tang City was lost, he couldn't bear the pain and anger in his heart, and suddenly raised his spear and shouted: "Ah...... Yes...... Ah......h
The soldiers saw that the Yellow Turban Army had withdrawn from the battlefield, knowing that they had won the battle, although they were very tired, but they were all very excited, and when they heard Li Yi's roar, everyone could no longer suppress the happiness in their hearts, and everyone raised their weapons and shouted hoarsely: "Ah...... Yes...... Yes...... Ah......h
When Yue Fei and the soldiers heard the roar, their blood immediately boiled, and their tired and scarred bodies seemed to suddenly add infinite strength, and they accelerated their pace like flying.
On the west side, Gongsun Chan and his cavalry troops also hurried to the rendezvous, and they all shouted frantically with the thunderous roar on the battlefield: "Ah...... Yes...... Yes...... Ah......h
Li Yi brandished a steel spear and galloped back and forth in front of the formation, leading the soldiers over and over again, roaring as loudly as he could, as if he wanted to pour out all the pain and anger in his heart.
Li Yi finally couldn't suppress the grief in his heart and burst into tears.
"Ah...... Ah......h
The majestic roar was like a thunderstorm, exploding on the battlefield and soaring into the sky.
………………
The tall and majestic body of Gaotang City in the distance is hidden between the rain and fog between the sky and the earth, the whistling wind is like a burst, the howling sound is terrible and tragic, the raindrops of soybean thickness are sprinkled all over the sky, hitting the ground and making a rattling sound, and the flat ground quickly accumulates half a foot deep rain, and the bloody and desolate battlefield seems to have become a sea of blood in a blink of an eye, spreading to the sky.
On the field, the Youzhou Iron Horse stood majestically, like a leopard ready to attack, launching a thunderous blow at any time.
Shan Jing rushed over with a young officer wearing a silver helmet, cyan armor, and holding a black Chinese character battle flag.
The young officer was instructed by Shan Jing and saw Li Yi with long hair flowing from a distance, and hurriedly flew off his horse and ran with his flag raised.
Li Yi dismounted and greeted him.
"Ji Yong, the last general of Pingyuan County Captain, meet General Xiaocai." The young officer was twenty-four or five years old, and judging from the shape of his face, it was an almost square pedestal-shaped face. The bones of the face are thick and strong. The chin is wide and open, the muscles are full, the eyebrows are thick, and he is very manly, with thick ears and a large mouth, and he has a majestic momentum.
Li Yi helped him up and asked anxiously, "How is Gao Tang City?" ”
"Safe and sound, General, safe and sound." Ji Yong replied loudly, "The ant thieves have all withdrawn, all have withdrawn." ”
Li Yi was taken aback, and asked loudly in surprise: "Gaotang City is still in our hands?" ”
Ji Yong nodded again and again, and shouted excitedly: "Yes, General, Gao Tang City is safe and sound." ”
Li Yi's hanging heart fell in an instant. He excitedly raised his hands, turned to face the army, used all his strength, and shouted: "Win, we win, we win......"
The army was boiling, cheers and roars resounded in the sky in an instant, and the joyful atmosphere immediately enveloped the rain-soaked battlefield, and even the howling wind seemed to be infected, and bursts of laughter came from the shouts.
"Set up camp, camp now." Li Yi shouted loudly at the herald.
The cheerful sound of war drums then rushed into the sky full of laughter.
"General, Liu Yuanjun and Captain Cao invite the general to lead the army into the city and station." Ji Yong said excitedly, "It's raining heavily outside the city, and it's inconvenient to camp, but it's much more comfortable in the city." ”
Li Yi shook his head with a smile and said, "No need, Li's army, except when defending the city, will never enter the city and station." You go back and tell Liu Yuanjun that when the camp is settled, Li will go to the city to visit him. ”
After speaking, Li Yi walked away with the army, leaving only the stunned Ji Yong standing on the spot. (To be continued.) )
