Chapter 0522: Gongsun Chan Defeated and Fled

Li Jing on the high platform looked at the huge shields that had been knocked down one by one, and knew that Gongsun Jun's iron cavalry was about to start attacking.

He grabbed the railing tightly with both hands, looked at the tens of thousands of corpses lying on the battlefield, and deeply felt Gongsun Zhan's ruthlessness and Gongsun Zhan's cold-bloodedness. Gongsun Chan used the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers to pave a way to break through. If it's yourself who is standing on the other side, you can't do it anyway. Gongsun Zhan's heart is too ruthless.

Some of the infantry of the Gongsun army attacked the left flank of the Northern Xinjiang Army, and some attacked the middle of the Northern Xinjiang Army, while more people flocked to the right flank of the Northern Xinjiang Army.

Now the situation is clear. The direction of the Gongsun Army's iron cavalry was to attack the right flank of the Northern Frontier Army, the weakest place in the Northern Frontier Army.

Li Jing smashed his fist on the railing and roared angrily: "Gongsun Zhan, you wait for death." ”

After speaking, Li Jing rushed down, pointed to the eight hundred guards lined up under the tall building, and shouted: "Go, kill with me, kill the past, kill the ......"

Li Jing roared away with the men and horses.

Li Yi was helpless, and hurriedly ran to the high platform with a few strategists. The situation on the battlefield surprised him very much, and he said loudly: "Quick, light the wolf smoke, and order the iron cavalry to attack." ”

"Mao Gong, you will command, and I will support the pharmacist and Bian Xi."

After speaking, Li Yi took three steps and made two steps, quickly rushed down the tall building, jumped on horseback, and said loudly: "Brothers, go to the right, go to the right and ...... to the right."

Under the leadership of Li Yi, the 6,000 hussar guards started rapidly along the river embankment.

………………

The earth groaned and trembled under the ravages of iron hooves.

The iron cavalry of the Gongsun army burst the embankment with the momentum of the river, and a huge roar resounded through the battlefield, and the thunderous roar soared into the sky.

The foot soldiers of the Gongsun army retreated like a tidal wave to both sides of the battlefield.

Under the command of Lingqi, the infantry of the Northern Xinjiang Army quickly retreated and assembled, trying to put down a defensive position in the shortest possible time. Bian Xi ran in the middle of the battle formation, constantly screaming and roaring, hoarse.

The strong archers at the rear of the battle formation shot a dense array of long arrows at the fastest speed at the Gongsun Army's iron cavalry. The chariot battalion quickly moved closer to the center in order to block and delay the enemy's attack on the center.

The Iron Riders were galloping, roaring like a hurricane on a battlefield full of corpses.

Dead bodies tumbled and shattered under the iron hooves, blood splattered and flowed under the iron hooves, and occasionally wounded soldiers could be seen crawling, screaming, and tearing apart under the iron hooves.

Wherever the Iron Rider passed, the flesh was blurred, and a complete corpse could no longer be seen, and a cry of pain could not be heard.

The drums of war beat and shook the earth.

The Iron Cavalry suddenly accelerated, and the excited and bloody roars of the knights were suddenly drowned out by the sound of a huge gallop.

The retreating Gongsun infantry bore the brunt of the attack, and with their screams of horror, fear, and helplessness, hundreds of soldiers who had not had time to avoid were knocked into the sky, trampled into pulp, and crushed into powder.

The iron cavalry rushed through the arrow array of the Northern Frontier Army, and it was instantaneous.

Bian Xi raised his sword high and roared: "Brothers, kill ......"

The soldiers of the Northern Frontier, who had been in battle for a long time, formed a small horse rejection formation as quickly as possible, and greeted them without fear. For a time, blood rained and flesh flew.

The soldiers of the Northern Xinjiang Army are rushing to kill, dying, and going forward one after another, swearing to block the enemy's iron cavalry with their flesh and blood.

Gongsun Jun's iron cavalry is galloping, howling, indomitable, and never stopping.

Li Jing and 800 guards entered the tragic battlefield.

In the face of thousands of powerful Gongsun Army iron cavalry, the eight hundred people were like a splash, and after a few flutters, they immediately disappeared into the chaotic battlefield.

When the number of Gongsun Army's iron cavalry and the Northern Xinjiang infantry was almost the same, without any means of defense, all that was left for the Northern Xinjiang infantry was death.

Bian Xi needs a ballista and a strong archer. Now only a dense array of bows and arrows can wipe out these unrivaled armies of iron horsemen.

Bian Xi led his soldiers to fight and retreat to the Chinese army. On the right side of the Chinese army, the chariot battalion and the strong archers were already in position, and as long as the enemy's iron cavalry was drawn into range, even if he and his men all fell, he would not hesitate.

At this moment, a low and passionate horn suddenly sounded from the rear of the battlefield.

"Must ...... Victory...... Must...... Victory......"

The hussars and guards galloped wildly, the sound of killing shook the sky, and the sharp cone-shaped array aimed at the iron cavalry of the Gongsun army and struck at the waist.

Li Yi's long hair was flying, and his spear was flying up and down, fighting fiercely, and the blockers were invincible. The soldiers of the Guards followed closely and fought bravely.

The battlefield suddenly set off a stormy wave. The fighting was fierce.

Gongsun Zhan was extremely excited, and shouted repeatedly: "Okay, good, Li Yi is dispatched, and the Northern Xinjiang Army is going to be defeated." ”

"Order Gongsun Fan, take 5,000 iron cavalry, go straight to the right flank of the Northern Xinjiang Army, and give him a hard blow." Gongsun Chan raised his hand and shouted, "We can camp on the north bank of the boundary bridge tonight." ”

"Lord, slow ......down," Changshi Guan Jing, who had been standing behind Gongsun Zhan, suddenly shouted.

Gongsun Zan was stunned for a moment, and turned back with great dissatisfaction and asked, "Shiqi, what's wrong?" ”

Guan Jing pointed to the sky on the left side and said loudly: "Lord, the iron cavalry of the Northern Frontier Army has gone south. ”

Gongsun Chan was shocked and suddenly turned his head to look.

The three-pillar wolf smoke rose in a curling manner, and the smoke column became thicker and thicker, higher and higher, reaching into the sky.

Gongsun Chan was dumbfounded, and a strong feeling of suffocation rushed to the bottom of his heart, making him almost out of breath.

"Lord, withdraw immediately." Guan Jing said nervously, "Since Li Yi's reinforcements have arrived, he is obviously determined to occupy Jizhou. In other words, he is now very happy to see us turn around and fight Yuan Shao. ”

"We have a much greater chance of beating Yuan Shao." Guan Jing said, "As long as Tian Kai and Liu Bei can come to help in time, we can safely withdraw to Bohai County." ”

"After we defeated Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao's strength was the weakest." Guan Jing explained, "Starting from the current situation in northern Xinjiang, Li Yi's best choice is, of course, to defeat Yuan Shao at the lowest cost and occupy half of Jizhou, so that he can ensure that northern Xinjiang has money and food." As for whose Jizhou will be in the future......"

Guan Jing looked at Gongsun Zhan and arched his hand and said, "Lord, as long as we can fight our way out of the encirclement, it will be difficult to say what will happen in the future." ”

Gongsun Chan hesitated, "If we are surrounded between the Yunting Pavilion and the Xifeng Pavilion, and the reinforcements of Tian Kai and Liu Bei are delayed, we may be completely annihilated. ”

"Lord, look at the way we look today, can we rush out?" Guan Jing pointed to the battlefield and sighed in a low voice, "It's too late to retreat, more than half of our troops have been damaged, and the whole army will really be wiped out." ”

Gongsun Chan took a long breath, gritted his teeth hard, and shouted, "Withdraw, withdraw immediately, withdraw to Yunting." We went to fight Yuan Shao overnight and broke through from the direction of Xifeng Pavilion. ”

The orders to retreat were passed down one by one.

The Gongsun army at the rear of the battlefield was in a panic. Shan Jing took 20,000 foot soldiers who had not yet been put into the battlefield, and took the lead in withdrawing from the battlefield with grain and grass baggage.

The soldiers of the Bingcao battalion commanded tens of thousands of people to pretend to be the Gongsun army and stood behind the battlefield.

Gongsun Zan and Guan Jing took three thousand white horses from the battlefield and continued to point out the Gongsun soldiers in front of them to fight to the death.

Gongsun Fan lined up on the left side of the army with 5,000 iron cavalry, only to wait for the iron cavalry of the Northern Xinjiang Army to arrive, and then retreated.

The white horse under Gongsun Chan's seat neighed restlessly.

"Here, there are about twenty or thirty thousand iron horsemen, and it seems that Li Yi has almost transferred all the power he can use to Jizhou." Gongsun Zhan said with a solemn expression, "Li Yi doesn't seem to kill me, he vows not to give up." ”

Guan Jing shook his head and said, "Li Yi's strength is limited. If he kills us now, there will be few tens of thousands of horses left, and it will be difficult for him to gain a foothold not only in Jizhou in the future, but also in the desert and northern Xinjiang. ”

Then he pointed to the wolf smoke rising in the air, and said: "Li Yi's meaning is obvious, he wants us to retreat immediately, and then he and Yuan Shao surround us one after the other, and gather the strength of the two to beat us." ”

Gongsun Chan waved his horsewhip and said hatefully: "After breaking through, I will fight Li Yi to the end." He wants to seize Jizhou, but it's not so easy. ”

"My lord, do you think you ordered Yan Gang and them to withdraw first?" Guan Jing asked.

"Can't be withdrawn." Gongsun Chan said murderously, "If we want to withdraw safely, we must rely on them to hold back the iron cavalry of the Northern Frontier Army." ”

Guan Jing was stunned for a moment, with a trace of unbearable expression on his face. The 5,000 iron horsemen and more than 20,000 foot soldiers on the battlefield were sacrificed in vain.

The earth shook violently, and everyone felt a terrification like a landslide.

The 24,000 iron cavalry army of Northern Xinjiang rushed out of the sky and roared towards the battlefield with overwhelming momentum.

The Northern Xinjiang Army gave an earth-shattering cheer, and the soldiers were like rainbows and bravely took the lead.

Gongsun Jun's soul was scattered, and they turned around and fled.

Gongsun Chan gave an order, and the eight thousand iron horsemen immediately quickly withdrew from the battlefield.

Tens of thousands of terrified people cried for their fathers and mothers, wolves rushed around, and they scurried around on the battlefield.

Xu Maogong stood on a high platform and gave orders again and again, commanding all the armies to launch a counterattack.

Zhang Liao took six thousand iron horsemen and chased after Gongsun Zhan. Zhao Yun, Gao Changgong and Lu Bu each led a large army, copied from Sanba, and surrounded the remnants of the Gongsun army on the battlefield.

Yan Gang led his troops to desperately break through and bumped into Li Jing and his personal guard Qu head-on. Li Jing was furious, raised his gun and shouted: "Kill him, kill him for me......"

Everyone rushed up, slashed with knives and axes, and cut down several war horses in succession. Yan Gang fell down the horse, and was immediately chopped into meat paste by several red-eyed soldiers.

Wang Men was killed by random arrows in the breakout, Zou Dan and Guo Hua were captured, and the soldiers of the Gongsun army were crushed, with countless casualties.

As the sun sets, the Battle of the Boundary Bridge gradually quiets down.

In this battle, the Northern Xinjiang Army killed nearly 15,000 enemies, captured 30,000 prisoners, and captured more than 3,000 horses. Nearly 10,000 people died tragically in the melee.

In order to block Gongsun Zhan's breakthrough, the Northern Xinjiang Army paid a heavy price, with nearly 10,000 casualties. Bian Xi's 8,000-strong army suffered more than 2,000 casualties, nearly 2,000 minor and serious wounds, and more than half of them were lost. The two armies of Xu Huang and Li Xin also lost more than 3,000 people.

After three successive battles at Xifeng Pavilion, Yunting and Jieqiao, Li Jing's 24,000 army lost most of its 24,000 troops, of which more than 6,000 were killed in battle, and nearly 9,000 were lightly and seriously wounded, leaving only more than 9,000 people who could continue to fight. Now, even with the 6,000 men and horses of the hussar general's camp, there are only 16,000 people left in the army that is blocking Gongsun Chan head-on. (To be continued.) )
