Chapter 328
In Daxing County, somewhere in a private house
In the corner, a man and wife sat trembling on the ground, both dressed in patched linen clothes, the woman had a sallow face, obviously malnourished, and a wooden hairpin tied on top of her long hair. All this shows that they are a civilian home, and behind this couple, two men, one woman and three children, have dark eyes, not the fear in the eyes of the two adults, but some curiosity.
"Mother, I'm hungry!"
One of them, a boy who was only three or four years old, pursed his mouth and whispered a word. However, before his words fell, he drew a low scolding.
"Shut up, if you want to live, let me calm down. ”
It was not the couple who spoke, but behind the door of the room, ten soldiers in armor with spears and blades were crouching behind the door, and when they heard the voice of the little boy, the first of them glared fiercely.
When the woman saw this, she immediately covered the boy's mouth and held him in her arms.
At noon, the family wanted to make a fire to cook, and the three children were happily waiting for the meal. However, the fire was only lit, and before the dishes were cooked, the ten soldiers in front of them had already rushed to their house. Let them stop cooking, crouch in the corner, and not make the slightest noise, or they will be killed. The ten soldiers hid behind the door, whispering something. In the past two days, there has been a battle in Daxing County, which is obviously related to this battle.
A young soldier looked at his captain and asked in a low voice, "Chief, isn't it a little bad for us to do this?"
The chief glared at the soldier, but since the young soldier was from the same village as him, the chief didn't blame him too much. Instead, he whispered: "Xiao Maozi, we are also doing this so that we can win the battle without harming their lives." The general guards the people of Youzhou from being violated by the northern aliens, and now they should contribute a little bit to the general. ”
The young Xiaomao listened to Shi Chang's words and didn't say anything more. The reason why many of their soldiers in Youzhou followed Gongsun Chan was because they admired Gongsun Chan for resisting the alien races in the north.
"Okay, I won't say much superfluous, wait until the order is given, we, as soldiers, will carry it out!"
The chief commanded in a low voice, and then all ten soldiers paid a solemn attention to the situation outside. And the couple didn't say anything, the ten soldiers didn't rob them of their things, they didn't want to kill them, they just hid quietly.
In Daxing County, such a situation is everywhere, obviously, these people are ambushed among the people, waiting for Liu Yu's army to enter the city and give them a fatal blow.
"Rush!"
"Kill!"
Liu Yu's army rushed into the city of Daxing County, chasing the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans of the black-robed people everywhere, and the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans scattered and fled. If anyone pays attention, they will find that they seem to flee very regularly, and they all lead Liu Yu's soldiers into various alleys. After Liu Yu's army entered Daxing County, they were scattered because of the pursuit of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban.
Because of Liu Yu's order, Liu Yu's soldiers did not rush into the house to search, which was also a very fatal factor.
"Huh?"
Liu Yu, under the escort of his cronies, also entered the county seat of Daxing. However, looking at the battles everywhere, Liu Yu frowned and sensed that something was wrong.
"Come, have you seen Gongsun Zhan's white horse servant?"
Liu Yu suddenly understood that something was wrong, it was already at this time, but Gongsun Zhan's White Horse Yicong did not make the slightest movement, and it was obviously a little abnormal. Liu Yu's cronies were stunned, not knowing how to answer, and soon, some cronies left the team and went to inquire about the news of Baima Yicong.
And Liu Yu, the feeling of uneasiness in his heart became even stronger.
After a long while, the cronie who went to inquire about Bai Mayi's news had not yet returned, and apparently had not yet found out the news. As for Liu Yu, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he felt that he had been tricked. Gongsun Chan knew that his troops were inferior to himself, but he still went out of the city to fight a decisive battle, as a general who had experienced a hundred battles, Gongsun Chan obviously would not be so stupid. But Gongsun Chan still did this, which can only show that Gongsun Chan has a conspiracy.
"Someone, quickly send an order to withdraw from the city, there must be no mistake!"
At that moment, Liu Yu did not hesitate and immediately ordered a retreat.
However, Liu Yu's order was still too late. When Liu Yu gave the order, there was a sky-high fire in the entire Daxing City, and billowing black smoke drifted in the direction of Liu Yu, which seemed to come from the Netherworld's life-seeking army, and Liu Yu's army was shrouded in black smoke.
"Woooooo
In the city, the horn of the charge sounded, and in an instant, there were shouts of killing everywhere. Liu Yu's army pursued the enemy in the streets and alleys of the city, and there were only 20,000 people beside Liu Yu.
"Retreat, retreat!"
Liu Yu didn't care about anything else, and hurriedly roared.
"Kill!"
"Take down Liu Yu's head, the bounty is 10,000 taels, and the official worships Taishou!"
On both sides of the street, among the houses and shops, rushed out the soldiers of Gongsun Zhan, who had already been ambushed. A small team of ten people rushed out shouting and brandishing weapons. Perhaps, ten people seems to be a small number, but when a team of ten people converges and slowly becomes hundreds, thousands, and ten thousands, then there are quite a few people.
Liu Yu's soldiers were all in a panic because of the sudden situation, and even more so because of the black smoke, the black smoke inhaled into the lungs, coughing non-stop, how could they still have combat power? Wielding a weapon, he effortlessly slashed Liu Yu's soldiers.
It turned out that the black-robed man calculated yesterday that there was a strong wind today, and the wind direction was still in Liu Yu's direction. In addition, the black-robed man learned from Gongsun Zhan that Liu Yu had a reputation for benevolence and righteousness among the people of Youzhou, so he set up this plan.
First, 10,000 soldiers were ambushed in the middle of a civilian house. Then collect straw and firewood from the people's homes, and when Liu Yu's army disperses to various parts of the city, they ignite the straw and firewood, causing billowing black smoke. The wind direction is blowing towards Liu Yu, and Gongsun Chan and they naturally don't have to worry about being affected by the black smoke. Moreover, because of his reputation for benevolence and righteousness, Liu Yu would not let the soldiers harass the people, so the soldiers hiding in the people's homes were saved from being discovered.
Liu Yu's 30,000 cavalry was the fastest, and because of the pursuit, the 30,000 cavalry were scattered everywhere. When the number of cavalry was reduced, the impact of the charge was not great. Moreover, the limited space in the streets and alleys of the city greatly reduced the effectiveness of the cavalry's charge.
In addition, the black smoke rose, and the war horse was so smoked by the black smoke that it was even more neighing and spinning in place. The 30,000 cavalry not only could not cause damage to Gongsun Zhan's side, but instead brought damage to his own side.
Most of the horses went berserk in the black smoke and threw off the cavalry on their bodies, and many of the cavalry were trampled to death by the horses. Even if they didn't die, they were seriously injured, and death was not far away.
As for Liu Yu, he led 20,000 people to flee. The 100,000-strong army shrank to 20,000 in just an instant, and the 30,000 cavalry were all wiped out, and Liu Yu also felt heartache! If he died in a normal battle with the other party, Liu Yu would have felt better, but now it has become like this completely because of the other party's conspiracy.
Of course, the main reason for all this is that Liu Yu wanted to maintain his image of benevolence and righteousness, and did not let the soldiers rush into the houses to search. Otherwise, this would not be the case.
After Liu Yu and 20,000 soldiers fled the county seat of Daxing, the city gates were closed soon after. Liu Yu knew that the 80,000 soldiers were finished.
"Ahh
Liu Yu returned to the camp and roared angrily at the sky. was already a winnable situation, but such a situation occurred, which made Liu Yu not angry.
"My lord, now that the situation is unfavorable to our army, we should evacuate this place, and when we return to Jixian County, we can gather a large army to fight against Gongsun Zhan. A cronie beside Liu Yu whispered admonishment.
Liu Yu thought about it and felt that this was the only way, this revenge must be avenged, otherwise he Liu Yu would never have the face to stay in Youzhou again.
"Speed up the army, prepare..."
"Boom, boom..."
However, before Liu Yu could say the word "evacuation", the earth trembled violently, and it seemed that a large group of cavalry was charging.
"My lord, Gongsun Chan is leading the White Horse Yicong to rush over!"
At this moment, a soldier rushed in with a panicked face.
Liu Yu was stunned, and then shouted frantically: "Withdraw, quickly withdraw!"
After shouting, Liu Yu took the lead in rushing out of the camp tent, stepped on his war horse, and ran away before he even had time to give the order. And Liu Yu's cronies followed suit, only suffering the 15,000 infantry, but they could only run with Liu Yu with two feet. There are also some soldiers who take the opportunity to flee, they are not the main characters anyway, and Gongsun Chan will not pursue them.
