Chapter 375: Huang Zhong's debut, the control between advance and retreat The next three

War is indispensable for the right people at the right time.

After all, the power of heaven and earth is endless, such as the battle in which Zhuge Liang besieged Sima Yi, and it was clear that the victory was in my hands, but a heavy rain, which was unfavorable and defeated.

Geographical superiority is the active advantage on the battlefield

And the people, this is the contrast between the advantages and disadvantages of the troops.

The geographical advantage can definitely make up for the disadvantage in troops.

It's like this battle.

The strength of the Yellow Turban Army is not strong enough, but it can control the geographical advantage, but it can fight with the Xiliang Army, and it is possible to turn defeat into victory.

This battlefield of fighting and retreating is a battlefield that Huang Zhong decided to come down after spending a few nights gathering all the generals to discuss, deliberate, and personally riding horses to inspect countless times, and it is the most suitable battlefield for a counterattack.

Coming down from the official road, it stretches for more than ten miles, and the conclusion is a battlefield.

The official road is the first blow, the momentum of sniping, and the purpose of seduction, which is to pave the way for the war later.

The three-way intersection is the second blow.

This blow is adding fuel to the fire.

In order to make the anger of the Xiliang army burn, forcing them to take this path to this somewhat special battlefield in front of them.

This battlefield is a sandy beach, in front of which is a river, and the river is a flow of Fenshui, which is not very big or urgent, but the snow is misty, and you can't see the depth.

It's the back of the beach that's all about it.

It is a small hillside, and the hillside is surrounded by jungle, and the trees in the jungle are not high, but they can hide a lot of tracks.

Coming out of the official roads and paths, the target is basically to go straight to the river, and their eyes will only see the river, but they can temporarily forget that the somewhat hidden hillside behind can hide soldiers.

This was Huang Zhong's heaviest blow.

He led the main force of the Yellow Turban Chinese Army, with more than 3,000 soldiers, all of whom were veteran elites, and ambushed here for a long time.

This is the time to wait.

"Sons, kill it!"

"Cut through their formation!"

Huang Zhong held a big knife like a tiger, and the tiger pounced fiercely down the mountain, with two swords left and right, he solved three or four cavalrymen, and with the arrogance of a tiger like a wolf, he rushed into it with an indomitable rush.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The Yellow Turban formation charged down, like a tiger pounced on the past.

The reason why these Yellow Turban soldiers are the main force of the Chinese army is because these soldiers are all veterans, not recruits who have just been assembled, and it is the recruits who were lured before, and the difference between veterans and recruits is the difference between Yellow Turban soldiers.

The reason why veterans are the main force is because these veterans have been familiar with the laws of the battlefield for a long time since the Yellow Turban Uprising.

On the battlefield, there is no undefeated god of war, only the victor who lives to the end, even if he is as powerful as Huang Zhong Lu Bu, on the battlefield, he does not dare to say that his flesh and blood is an immortal body.

If you want to survive, the first thing is not to be afraid of death.

On the battlefield, whoever is afraid of death will die first.

They are all Yellow Turban soldiers who are not afraid of death, and under the charge, they all forget about life and death, and condense into a general trend.

"Ambush?"

How ugly and ugly Li Yu's face was, he squeezed the reins of the horse, and his eyes were gloomy and dripping water: "It turned out that it was all foreshadowing before, and the real ambush is here, damn it!! ”

Even if he wanted to fight back, it would be too late.

He has always been very confident, because he is leading the most elite 3,000 cavalry under his command, both advance and retreat, so he dares to pursue, and he is not afraid of ambushes, but he did not expect to encounter such a terrain.

The three thousand cavalry pursued all the way from the small road to here, and the ability was difficult and suffered a lot, that is, with the strong control of the Xiliang cavalry, they could catch up, but they watched people get on the boat and run away.

That's not all, when they were still lamenting, when they hadn't yet gained a firm foothold, they were hit hard from behind by a yellow scarf, and the formation of the three thousand cavalry was already uneven, and it was completely chaotic all of a sudden.

"Steady, steady!"

"Move closer to me, move closer to me!"

"Don't shoot, block them for a while, our main force will come, enough to encircle and annihilate them!"

Li Yu can be the general of Xiliang, and his reaction is indeed not slow, but his shouts are buried under the cover of the sound waves of fighting.

"Scatter them!"

Huang Zhong held the knife and killed all the way, like a sharp arrow, extremely sharp, invincible, able to penetrate everything that blocked his edge, anyone who stood in front of him would be torn apart by him.

"Rush over!"

"Rush over!"

The main general is like the god of war, and the soldiers' fighting spirit does not need guidance at all, and they have been climbing day by day, following Huang Zhong's side, and rushing towards these cavalry without fear of death.

The battlefield is in chaos.

Cavalry and foot soldiers should have been the difference between heaven and earth.

But the 3,000 foot soldiers of the Yellow Turban forcibly dispersed the 3,000 cavalry of Xiliang, entangled the 3,000 cavalry and fought them, without giving the cavalry any chance to play, and pressed them to kill him.

"Sure enough, there was an ambush!"

A good ambush, with 3,000 soldiers led by Huang Zhong himself, it is also possible to fight out 3,000 Xiliang cavalry, but in less than an hour, the two sides are fighting, and the main force of Xiliang arrived under the leadership of Jia Xu.

"Kill the past, leave no one behind!" Jia Xu ordered.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The main force of Xiliang, nearly tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, rushed straight to him.

"Count yourself lucky!"

As soon as Huang Zhong arrived, he waved and killed a military marquis of the Xiliang army with a horse, he looked back and saw the killing of the main force of Xiliang, and knew that there was no hope of eating these 3,000 soldiers, so he could only retreat.

"Let's retreat, go down to the river!"

Huang Zhong had already penetrated the formation of the Xiliang cavalry, killed to the river, jumped directly, and jumped into the river.

The river was cold, but it was only chest-deep.

This river is actually just a shallow river, only a little more than a meter deep at the deepest, and it can even be crossed without boats.

This is the retreat arranged by Huang Zhong.

"Withdraw!"

"Down the river!"

"Get out of the fight!"

The Yellow Turbans jumped into the river and swam towards the opposite bank.

"Shallow water?"

Li Yu's pupils changed color, his whole face turned red, and there was nowhere to vent the anger in his heart, and after a long time, a shallow river blocked them here, so that they did not dare to pursue, and also made them feel like they did not dare to take a half step back when they encountered an ambush, and they were beaten alive for a while.

"Chase!"

"Give me chase!"

"We must not let them escape!"

Li Yu was furious.

"Woo Woo Woo !!!!"

This is the Yellow Turban soldiers who have already crossed the shore, under the arrangement of the battalion commander Guo Cong, formed a formation, covered with bows and arrows, and suddenly scared back a lot of the Xiliang army who just wanted to cross the river to pursue.

"Poor Kou Mo Chase!" Jia Xu walked up, stood on the shore, and looked at the Yellow Turban soldiers who had begun to land on the other side of the bank one by one: "This time we have suffered a lot of losses, and if we continue to pursue, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no ambush, after all, we can't be sure if they are this kind of troops, and now they are camping and burying pots to make food, whether it is a camp tent or a pot stove, they all mean that they have 20,000 soldiers and horses, but we have only seen that seven or eight thousand soldiers are not enough, do not be impulsive!" ”

"I'm not reconciled!"

Li Yu gritted his teeth and looked at the opposite side of the riverbank, after the Yellow Turban Army came ashore, he disappeared into the back of his eyes, and his whole face became hideous.

In this battle, he suffered a big loss.

Not to mention the small ambush before, the latter blow really damaged his cavalry, 3,000 cavalry, at least more than 800, which was a big blow to those who regarded cavalry as their life.

"General Li, let's clean up the battlefield first and appease the soldiers, we have lost our morale in this battle, we must set up camp and stabilize the morale of the army!" Jia Xu said in a low voice.

"Order, camp on the spot!"

Although Li Yu was unwilling, he knew which was more important, so he still agreed.

After camping on the spot, they began to clean up the battlefield and count the damage.

The injury was quickly handed to Li Yu's hands.

By this time it was already evening, and it was ready for night.

"This battle has lost a full nine hundred and twelve Xiliang cavalry, I, Xiliang warriors, should have galloped on the battlefield, invincible, but died so badly, yellow turban thief, a certain family is inseparable from you!"

In the makeshift camp, Li Yu's eyes looked at this injury, his pupils were a little dilated, his eyes were bloodshot, and the whole person was like a wolf in his hand, full of resentment.

Three thousand Xiliang cavalry is the backbone of his Li Yu, although he has more than 10,000 soldiers and horses under his command, but the main force is above this cavalry, and nearly one-third of it is lost in one breath, and he hates it.

"General, this person is not simple!" Jia Xu squinted, looking at the battlefield record he had made after asking many soldiers in his hand, and said gloomily.

"Who?"

"The one who leads the troops!"

Jia Xu said in a low voice: "He must have calculated that we would pursue, so he arranged a trap, from the official road to here, but only ten miles, this person can be a series of ambushes, the first wave of ambushes is a matter of course, we are only injured in the skin, so as to lure us to pursue, the second wave of ambushes, we injured a lot of soldiers, in the unexpected, also in the calculation, not very unexpected, acceptable, so we thought that this was their purpose, and therefore completely ignited the anger of the general, the general held the cavalry, naturally continued to pursue." We didn't think that this river was a shallow river, and we didn't need boats to cross, so when the pursuit came up, we stopped, and because the enemy escaped, although we were angry, we also breathed a sigh of relief, at this time, they were ambushed, and when they stood down, our cavalry was injured and damaged more than 800 soldiers, and the corpses of the yellow turbans left on the battlefield were less than 300, and 300 foot soldiers were exchanged for my 800 cavalry, what a calculation, amazing! ”

Speaking of which, Jia Xu admired this person a little.

It is rare for anyone to be able to control the advance and retreat so accurately, and in the entire Xiliang Army, except for Dong Zhuo, Zhang Ji, Niu Fu and Hua Xiong, few people can have such command.

"And who is the Yellow Turban General who is the enemy of us this time?"

Li Yu listened to Jia Xu's analysis and began to calm down, thinking of such a person, he was a little angry, but also cold sweat.

"Baibo Yellow Turban, with Guo Tai as the commander of the canal, the uprising in the past, the role of 100,000 troops, there are a lot of generals, but in the past two years of hard fighting, they have more casualties, especially in the battle where we besieged and killed the main force of the Yellow Turban Army before, the commander Guo Tai died in battle, and the generals under his command were killed in seven or eight out of ten, and now if you say that you can take charge of the Yellow Turban alone, there are only four people, Yang Feng, Han Xian, Li Le, and Hu Cai?"

"The four of them, I've fought with them, but the style doesn't look very similar, do you think in your heart, which one is the four of them leading the troops this time?"

"Neither!" Jia Xu shook his head.

"Neither?"

Hearing this, Li Yu frowned slightly.

"I believe not, first of all, Li Le and Hu Cai's soldiers and horses smashed the north and were besieged by the Hun army, they can't appear here, and secondly, Yang Feng and Han Xian We have fought a lot, and we have more or less understanding, brave and strategic, careful thinking, and can't fight this battle, so I can be sure that it is not these two people who lead the troops!"

Jia Xu said: "There should be a person we don't know who has entered the Baibo Yellow Turban!" ”

"Who the hell is that?"

"I don't know!" Jia Xu squinted his eyes and said: "But I know that this person should have won the trust of the Yellow Turban generals, so he can command these white wave and yellow turban soldiers, and this person took the initiative to attack when Hu Cai and Li Le were surrounded, the purpose is by no means simple, it will not just want to lightly beat us for a while, there must be a greater calculation!" ”

"What do you think he's for?"

Li Yu panicked in his heart and hurriedly asked.

"I have a guess!" Jia Xu pondered for a long time before he spoke: "Maybe we are all wrong, the white wave and yellow scarves are not heroic, they are hiding their troops, this time they have already poured out of the nest and attacked with the whole army!" ”

"Then why are they hiding their troops?"

Li Yu didn't understand.

"Because I want to make a sound!"

Jia Xu said gloomily: "They gathered us today, it seems that they are actually doing more useless work, but why do they do this, they just want to scare us, drag us, and then turn the troops, their main force may have arrived outside General Guo Yan's camp!" ”

"You mean it's Guo Yan that they want to fight?"

Li Yan's eyes widened, and he was a little incredulous: "But there are many main forces brought out by Guo Yan from Linfen, at least 8,000 soldiers!" ”

"If it's 20,000 against 8,000, or in the wild, there is no advantage over the city wall, can you fight?"

Jia Xu asked.

"It's too cunning, they're being too cunning!" Li Yu stood up and said in a low voice: "We must not let them succeed!" ”

"Report!"

A cavalry scout, covered in blood, rushed in.

"Say!"

Li Yu's face changed, he looked at the scout, and shouted.

"This afternoon, General Guo's camp was attacked by yellow turban thieves and sent me to ask for help!"

"What?" Li Yu and Jia Xu both stood up and looked at each other, they had just analyzed it, and the news came from there, doesn't this mean that the war will start at the same time, this Yellow Turban Army has such a large force?

"How's the battle going?"

Jia Xu asked gently.

"The Yellow Turban thieves attacked our camp with two soldiers and horses on the left and right, at least about 13,000 soldiers and horses, although we were prepared, there were only 8,000 soldiers and horses, the foothold was unstable, the camp had just been established, there was no danger to stop, the Yellow Turban thieves were fierce, they killed in one breath, so that we suffered great casualties, General Guo had to retreat to the hillside of three miles to wait for help, and sent out fifteen scouts, most of them were killed, only I rushed out, let me come to ask for help!"

"Someone!"

When Li Yu heard this, he couldn't catch up with the details and shouted directly.

At this time, the Xiliang army was very united, they could kill from that place in Xiliang and become the current hegemon of the Central Plains, but the existence of the power of the imperial court could be relied on by virtue of the unity of the upper and lower levels.

Therefore, Li Yu did not hesitate to order: "The whole army gathers and prepares to pull out the camp!" ”
