The battlefield is a very large wilderness, but the defeated soldiers feel that there is no way to escape, whether it is front or back, left and right, it is crowded and abnormal, there is no place to run on both sides, it is completely blocked, in front of them is the crowd that cannot see the edge, and behind them is the fierce Qingzhou cavalry.

The horse lance in Qin Feng's hand stretched forward diagonally, slightly downward, and the net was the position of the adult's neck, as long as an enemy appeared within the range of the length of the horse lance, he would adjust the direction of the horse lance, and let the lance blade wipe over the opponent's neck.

He didn't need to exert much effort on his own, because the speed of the horses and the combined momentum of the horses were enough to inflict lethal damage on the enemy, and he only needed to control the horses.

But this ideal maneuver of cavalry combat did not last long, and some of the cavalry even went out with a certain degree of confusion. The reason is that the rout in front is too dense, and the cavalry charges in the back, and it is immediately crowded, and the space vacated by the rout who are slashed and scattered cannot keep up with the speed of the cavalry advance

The vacant place was immediately filled with cavalry in the back, and the cavalry in the front row just raised their weapons and slashed down, and a group fell in front, and the cavalry could only take a step forward.

"Madman, don't patronize and kill, give up your position to the infantry and iron cavalry, let's outflank us in a roundabout way!" Zhao Yun chased Ma Chao for a while, and found that the opponent's horse was also very fast, and he couldn't catch up for a while, so he left the task of chasing Ma Chao to Tai Shici, and returned to his own formation to command the battle.

Now that the rout of the Xiliang Army has been completed, there is no suspense in this battle. But if Ma Chao can't be caught, there will inevitably be a possibility of resurgence, and the best way to eliminate this hidden danger is to weaken the enemy's forces as much as possible.

At present, the Xiliang rout army is the front is fleeing quickly, and the back is squeezed and can't move, if it follows and kills like this, it is difficult to say whether half of the troops can be left in the end. Trailing and chasing is also a waste of light cavalry high motor power, so it is better to give up the position and go to the front to volley.

"This method is good, Zilong didn't mention it, I really didn't expect it'' Qin Feng patted his forehead,... Enlightenment.

Fang Yue frowned slightly, and hesitated: "As the saying goes: the poor don't chase, the heart of the Xiliang army has collapsed, and it doesn't hurt for our army to follow and kill, if it is intercepted head-on, it is difficult to ensure that they do not fight for their lives, and when the time comes, won't they pay a lot more meaningless sacrifices?" ’’

‘… Anyway. Zhao Yun waved his hand and said confidently: "... The other army has no will to fight, and the lord has always had the reputation of not killing prisoners, as long as he stops it, don't rush to kill, and shout to persuade him to surrender first. ’’

"Well, it works." , Fang Yue nodded, as if he remembered something again, and said with a smile: "... But after all, we have few people, and it's troublesome to have too many prisoners."

Qin Feng laughed: '... Mowgli, it's not right for you to think like this, you calculate carefully, count the world, how many generals can have this kind of trouble? This is the trouble of happiness, most people want to worry about it once, but they don't have a chance, so you can steal the fun. ’’

Zhao Yun also smiled slightly, and with a move of the silver spear in his hand, the herald blew the horn, and thousands of light horsemen spread out to the wings like the wind, as if a big net had been opened, and the huge array of the Xiliang Army was completely encircled.

‘… Zilong's appetite is not small, and he is not worried that we will not be able to eat. In the past few years, Wang Yu's main command is the cavalry, and the generals of the cavalry are full of tacit understanding, Zhao Yun's side has just made a move, and Wang Yu immediately knows what the other party is going to do.

While commanding the position of the iron cavalry to supplement the light cavalry, Wang Yu ordered: "Pass the order and tell the people of Xiliang that those who surrender will not die, and those who resist will be killed!" Those who take the initiative to kill their recalcitrant comrades can be exempted from crime and serve the people! ’’

‘… The guards on the left and right responded in unison, shouting in unison: "Those who surrender will not die, and those who resist will be killed!" Those who take the initiative to kill their recalcitrant comrades can be exempted from crime and serve the people! Thinking of avoiding death, the recalcitrant kills... With Wang Yu's Chinese army as the center, the shouts quickly spread, and soon tens of thousands of people chanted in unison.

Although it has experienced a fierce battle for most of the day, but when the victory is pursued, no one will rush to the tired, shouting together, the Qingzhou soldiers are even more imposing, while running fast to chase behind the cavalry, while shouting with all their might, the momentum is amazing.

Hearing that there was hope for survival, the feet of the Xiliang rout army softened suddenly, especially those who were wrapped in the crowd, couldn't find a way out, and were completely surrounded by fear.

I thought I had fallen into a situation of certain death, why did I run away so hard? Surrender is just a matter of bowing your head. Although it is very aggrieved, it is much better than having no head on the neck.

Just when the panic gradually spread, and many of the routs began to wander and wait and see, it was another sudden change!

Originally, the cry of those who surrendered to avoid death only came from behind, and those who had gradually begun to break away from the brigade in the front army did not care. But suddenly, it was as if an echo sounded in the four fields, and overwhelming shouts came from all directions!

That shout was several times louder than the 40,000 Qingzhou troops behind him, as if there were hundreds of thousands of troops ambushed around!

Crowds, black-pressed crowds, from the mountains, from the rivers, from the depths of the wilderness, from any place imaginable!

"Oh my God! There are still so many soldiers ............... Qingzhou,'

"It's too much, it's too much, I'm afraid there aren't hundreds of thousands!" ’

"I can't run away, let's go down!" ’

This mutation completely broke the psychological defense line of the defeated soldiers.

Although many of them were close and had good eyesight, they could see clearly that it was not the army of Qingzhou who came, but a group of ragged people, most of whom had wooden sticks and village branches in their hands, but they still felt hopeless.

Usually, when they see these people, they will pounce on them with red eyes, and use their skills of burning and killing, committing adultery and plundering. But now, seeing these avengers, all that comes up from the bottom of my heart is deep despair and endless exhaustion

When the last of the courage is lost, human dignity is gone

"There is still an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old child in the upper house, spare the life of the little one, General!" ’

"As long as the villain's life is spared, the villain is willing to be a cow and a horse for General Yizidu, let it be driven, there is no second heart!" ’

‘… The little ones didn't want to come, they were all coerced by Ma Teng and Han Sui, two traitors, and they were forced to come! If the general wants to take Hedong and Guanzhong, the villain is willing to risk a hundred deaths and drive the army forward! ’’

The vanquished gave up their flight, but knelt in a pool of blood of their comrades and kowtowed like garlic, their faces covered with snot and tears mixed with blood and mud, and they looked unusually cowardly.

The Qiang soldiers and the Han soldiers were mixed together, shouting the same language, and their appearance and expression were also the same, if they were people who did not know the cause and effect at all, they would inevitably be moved when they saw such a scene, but whether it was the Qingzhou army that won a complete victory in the month, or the people who rushed from the surrounding cities to take revenge and help the war, there was no mercy and forgiveness.

Just half a day ago, the trembling lambs were showing their sharp teeth. Their blades were stained with the blood of the soldiers and civilians of the state, and their howls made the entire Taiyuan County tremble. The embers of the iniquities they have committed since they entered the country are also clearly recorded before they have been extinguished

The Xiliang Army did not come to occupy the state, their target was only Hebei! Whether it is a state or a river, it is just a springboard for them. Since there is no idea of long-term governance, the top level of the Xiliang Army will naturally not spend too much energy to restrain military discipline and establish order.

What's more, the composition of the Xiliang Army itself has already been decided, and it is impossible for them to become a disciplined army. If you want to transfer internal contradictions to external unity, you must come up with sufficient benefits.

Born in a high-ranking family, he has read the scriptures and history, and has quite good attainments in military and political strategy. Although he has been beaten by Xu Shu in the past few years, he has been embarrassed, but if he is denied as a person, it will inevitably be one-sided.

In fact, in the past few years, while resisting Xu Shu's invasion, he has vigorously collected the displaced people, and established dozens of tuntian points in the area from Jinyang to Zhaoyuze, organized more than 100,000 displaced people, and reclaimed a large amount of land.

The terrain in this area is flat, and there is abundant water provided by large rivers such as Zhaoyuze and Fenshui, and the foundation is already good, and with a little good organization, it is easy to create a land of fish and rice

If it weren't for the West-Liang Army's large-scale eastward advance, which made Gao Gan have the risk of fighting on both sides and had to choose between Qingzhou and Xiliang, he would definitely continue to support it, wait and see the changes in the situation in the world, and wait for the opportunity.

Ma Chao won the victory in Zi County, and the flames of war were burned all the way to Jiaoyang City, and everywhere he passed, it could be said that there was no grass and a mess. Houses were demolished, materials were used as firewood or siege equipment, tens of thousands of people were killed, and their belongings were looted

For the people of Taiyuan County, this is an incalculable blood feud!

There was no need for large-scale mobilization, as soon as the news of the Qingzhou Army's victory spread, the young men in the surrounding cities almost spontaneously ran out to help. What Qingzhou has to do here is just to organize in the middle.

The Han folk already have a martial arts style, and in the border area of Bingzhou, men who have no power to restrain chickens are even rarer. Facing the Xiliang army head-on, these young men were only slaughtered, but they were able to fight the water dogs.

They converged from all directions.

Someone followed behind the Qingzhou army, and when a rout was intercepted by the Qingzhou army, they outflanked it from the rear and formed an encirclement

The Xiliang rout army was frightened by the Qingzhou army, and only had the courage to flee and surrender, and it was impossible for them to take up arms again to fight. As long as they were intercepted, even if a few light horsemen blocked hundreds of routs, the latter did not dare to resist, so they crawled into the muddy water on the ground, crying and begging for mercy.

Someone directly set up obstacles or ambushes on the road. These people are usually hunters and are very good at hunting, and the traps they set are not very lethal, but they are very effective. The panicked Xiliang rout had no way to resist at all, and they were not beaten to death after being caught in the trap, but they could only kneel on the ground and beg for mercy.

Many more did their part, and as soon as they saw those kneeling on the ground begging for mercy, they rushed forward, tied up the surrenderers one by one with dirty ropes, and tried a long string, while the old and weak, who had no strength to help, picked up sticks and branches from the battlefield, and beat the captives with their heads and faces!

"Tell you to rob my livestock, tell you to demolish my house..."The white-haired old ladies wiped their tears while beating, "Thieves who killed a thousand knives, you have lost your conscience!" ”

"Badass! Return my father, return my mother! The hideous look on the face of the comforting child seemed so incongruous, but as long as he heard the childish childish voice, he would not feel that anything was wrong.

"Spare your life, uncle! I was forced too! The captives were ashamed and frightened, holding their heads and crying for mercy, but the people refused to forgive the saboteurs easily, knocked one group to the ground, and then carried sticks to the next group. Pick up the ones with clean clothes and armor, and the stronger the body, the more ruthless.

The neater the clothes and armor, the bigger the official, and the bigger the official, the more sins he will create, so he will not be wronged if he is beaten. The wolf and the sheep were converted in an instant, and the thieves and soldiers were robbing wantonly before, but now with the Qingzhou army behind them, the people will naturally not stop easily.

This mutation not only frightened the people of Xiliang, but Wang Yu and the generals of Qingzhou were also taken aback first, and then looked dumbfounded.

Wang Yu knew in his heart that the people of Bingzhou were definitely not mobilized by his order. This is not Qingzhou itself, and the Qingzhou army does not have much foundation in Bingzhou, nor can it talk about favor and prestige, so it is impossible to mobilize the people to help in the war. But if the people came spontaneously and grasped the timing and method so appropriately, it is obviously unreasonable.

Therefore, Wang Yu also felt at a loss, until he saw two mummy-like guys, and then he was relieved.

"Father, Yiran, you two have done a great job." Wang Yu smiled

These two mummies are none other than Pan Zhang and Li Le, who were seriously injured in the battle of Zixian, because their injuries were too serious, so this battle was left in the rear to recuperate, but they didn't expect that these two seriously injured people were unwilling to be lonely, and they actually launched the people of Taiyuan.

Li Le first clenched his fists and replied: "The last general will not dare to take credit, this is all due to the prestige of the lord, and it is also the perverse behavior of the Xiliang people, forcing the people of Taiyuan to endure it and have no way to retreat, so they rushed to take revenge." At most, it is just to help deliver the message and point the way. ”

"Hehe, you're modest." Wang Yu smiled noncommittally.

Li Le couldn't see through Wang Yu's smile, and he didn't know the bottom in his heart, and while lowering his head, he also used the corner of his eye to look at Pan Zhang, signaling the latter to come out.

The corners of Pan Zhang's mouth twitched, and he forced himself to put on a smile, and said in a slurred manner: "The last general is greedy for merit, which leads to a big defeat and almost shakes the overall battle situation. The lord was magnanimous, and his colleagues couldn't bear to abandon each other and did not pursue it, but in the heart of the last general, today is also the idea of the last general: "If you want to make meritorious contributions, if you are inappropriate"

"Alright." Wang Yu waved his hand and sighed: "The past has passed, I didn't care about it at the time, and I won't find the future account afterwards." It's just that the two of you are seriously injured, and you can't heal for three or five months, so you are reluctant to act at this time, but I am afraid that the injury will be even more serious. ”

He paused slightly, with a look of encouragement in his tone: "No matter what, today is a loss to the two of you." The credit will be noted for the time being, and when the two of you are healed and can lead the troops into battle, you will make arrangements. ”

"Thank you, my lord!" Pan Zhang and Li Le were all overjoyed, and they gave thanks together. Seeing that these two people were unable to move, Wang Yu didn't wait for them to bend down, waved his hand, and motioned to carry the two away directly.

After getting the people to join in, the pursuit went more and more smoothly. When the sun was setting in the west and the sky and earth were shrouded in twilight, the pursuit battle also came to an end.

Groups of men and horses formed a long line, scattered all over the mountains, surging with their backs to the setting sun, and converged towards the camp under the city of Terrier.

The battlefield under the sunset is desolate, looking at the surroundings from afar, Wang Yu is also full of emotion in his heart, this is really a success! The corpse is too late to be cleaned up for the time being, and it will have to wait until tomorrow, hoping that it will not rain again tomorrow, and it will be a sunny day.

Thinking of the weather, he suddenly remembered Zhuge Liang, looked left and right, but found that the young man joined the army and did not know where to go. Wang Yu was a little puzzled, and was about to find someone to ask, but saw Zhuge Liang walking over in a hurry.

"Lord, General Zilong captured Cheng Yi, General Gongming captured Cheng Yin, and the minister interrogated a few words roughly, and found that there may be some problems.........,..."

Wang Yu's heart sank, knowing that Zhuge Liang was calm by nature and would not pretend to speak, he took a deep breath, and then nodded: "You can say it!" ”

"The matter is about Cao Cao (to be continued.)
