On the battlefield of the Sunset Pavilion.

"The main force presses up, entangles them, don't let his main force converge!"

"The left and right wings, form an encirclement, and encircle the Sunset Pavilion!"

"Keep an eye on the west side, the cavalry is ready, and must not let him run out!"

After the Wumeng battalion and the Shuofang battalion pressed up, the Mushan army was defeated and retreated, Ding Yuan was in the center, his eyes stared at the sunset pavilion, his expression was as cold as ice, the weapons in his hands were raised high, the battle was like a tiger, the killing intent was cold, and military orders were issued one by one.

"It seems that Makiyama has been prepared for a long time!"

Lu Zhi rode his horse, slowly walked up, and said in a deep voice.

The assault of the Bingzhou army did not bear fruit, that can only show one thing, when Mushan attacked the Sunset Pavilion, he had already had sufficient precautions against Luoyang City, so the Bingzhou army reacted as soon as it moved.

"Humph!"

Ding Yuan snorted coldly, and said proudly: "Even if the surprise attack fails, in today's battle, he Mushan will not be able to escape, his main force strangled He Jin's soldiers and horses, and the damage is so great, you and I can see it, with his current strength and morale, he can't stop the elite soldiers and horses under my command!" ”

On the battlefield, strategy is very important, but more important is strength, the strength is strong enough, directly crush the past, even if you are resourceful, it is difficult to resist, this is a force to ten meetings.

The strength of the army under Mushan is very strong, whether it is the main force of the Violent Bear Army or the Nanyang Army, they are all the elite of a hundred battles from the Runan Campaign.

However, after a day of fighting, the Makiyama army, even if it does not count the damage, is already physically exhausted, and it will definitely not be the opponent of his and the state army.

"Now that Mushan is prepared, you still need to be careful in this battle!" Lu Zhi thought about it, and always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't think of it, so he could only tell Ding Yuan.

"This battle will be won!"

Ding Yuan is confident, his self-confidence is not only the soldiers and horses in front of him, but that he hides an elite, which is the strongest soldiers and horses in his state army.

The sunset quietly disappeared.

The night is gradually falling.

On the battlefield, the torch was raised, and the firelight was a piece of soldiers and horses.

"Shuofang Warriors, forward!"

It is difficult for Zhang Liao to calm down on the battlefield, he mainly attacks the Nanyang army formation in front, as long as he defeats the Nanyang army in front, he can open the defense of the entire Sunset Pavilion and go straight to the pavilion.

"Forward!"

"Forward!"

Shuofang battalion is the border army, they often face the Xiongnu from the northern desert on the battlefield, the temperament of the cultivation of bravery, the battle of the smooth water is even more imposing, a phalanx with shield soldiers in the front spearmen in the middle, archers in the rear formation, constantly advancing.

"It's a little unstoppable!" Huang Shao lived in the military formation of Nanyang Junniang, squinted slightly, looked at the constantly pressing Bingzhou army in front of him, gritted his teeth, and said: "The border army is the border army, and it is never the division of the Central Plains that can stop it!" ”

The border army has always been braved by the soldiers and horses who have lived in the Central Plains for a long time, this is the consensus, after all, the border battles are more frequent, and the elite soldiers have naturally been trained, while the divisions of the Central Plains are all fighting civil wars, not fighting with foreign races, and there is less momentum.

"Since we can't stop it, we won't stop it!"

Mu Shan ordered: "Pass the order, the whole army prepares, after a quarter of an hour, if the Xiliang Army does not appear on the battlefield, we will abandon the Sunset Pavilion and withdraw our troops to the northwest, the Nanyang Army will withdraw first, and the Pingshan camp will be broken!" ”

He has his calculations.

It's not that you can't win.

With the current strength of the Violent Bear Army and the Nanyang Army, even if there is some damage, it is enough to deal with it for several days, but it is impossible for him to take out the forces in his hand and defeat the state army.

Preserving strength is the king.

"No!"

The generals commanded.

But within a quarter of an hour, the battlefield was still changing.

"Xiliang Dong Zhuo, under the order of King Qin, protects the prince, so the soldiers who are unfavorable to the prince are all rebels, kill!" In the northwest direction, Dong Zhuo rode his horse and galloped into the battlefield, holding Feiyan in his hand, rampage, invincible, straight into the northeast corner of the battlefield, from the northeast of the battlefield to the south, and went straight to the southern army guards on the battlefield.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The Liangzhou Army is called the Xiliang Army, locally, it is more wilderness than Bingzhou, and the Xiliang Army is also a border army, and its combat effectiveness is more turbulent and fierce, and the battalions of soldiers and horses are like wolves and tigers.

The southern army is in the direction of the northeast corner of the battlefield, intending to go up to the Sunset Pavilion from the north, take the Chinese army directly, and capture the prince and the queen, but Zhou Cang led his troops to resist, and he was ready to attack, but he didn't expect to kill the Xiliang army.

"Xiliang Dong Zhuo?"

"It's Xiliang Army!"

"It's not good, Xiliang has sent troops!"

"Back to defense, quick back to defense!"

Although the Praetorian Guards of the Southern Army were the elite who defended Miyagi, they were not as fierce as the border army after all, and they suddenly collapsed under the impact of the Xiliang Army.

"How so?" The chief general of the Praetorian Guard, Huangfu Lianmeng.

However, he finally reacted quickly, and hurriedly organized a defense: "Quickly order all departments to gather, gather troops, and kill them!" ”

At this time, he was already thinking about the Sunset Pavilion.

Dodging the charge of the Xiliang army is the most important thing.

However, the rout of the battalions was too fast, and under the rush and killing of the Xiliang army, the queue did not form a queue, and they were surrounded and killed scattered, and there were countless casualties at once, and the corpses were piled up like a mountain, and the blood flowed like a river.

"Retreat northeast!"

Huangfu couldn't even have bloodshot eyes, looked at the corpses all over the ground, and looked at the soldiers who kept falling on the battlefield, so he could only grit his teeth and order: "The whole army goes to the northeast and leaves the battlefield!" ”

Only by leaving the battlefield can the main force of the Praetorian Guard be preserved.

Otherwise, they will be wiped out here.

As for the flanks of the state army, they can no longer take care of it.

"Report to the Lord, we have defeated the Southern Army!"

Zhang Jinai was the vanguard, and after he defeated the Praetorian Guards at the rear, he returned to report: "But the Lord has fled!" ”

"Escaped?" Dong Zhuo frowned slightly when he heard this.

"They fled from the direction of the northeast corner, and there was still a force of soldiers and horses outside to meet them, but I don't know who the soldiers and horses were, if we continue to pursue, it will delay our time!"

"Leave them alone!" Dong Zhuo judged the situation and didn't care too much about the departure of the Southern Army Janissaries from the battlefield, they broke away, but it was better, under a long battle, even if they could be completely annihilated, it would cause a rapid response from the Bingzhou Army, and the gains outweighed the losses.

He thought for a moment and shouted: "Huaxiong! ”

"In!" The fierce general Hua Xiong is the fierce general under Dong Zhuo in the Western Liang Army, even if Dong Zhuo loves to put Zhang Ji above the force, he is far inferior to him.

"You lead 3,000 troops, go straight to the west city of Luoyang, block the city gate, there is no need to attack the city, but you can't let the Bingzhou army return to Luoyang!"

Dong Zhuo said coldly.

At this time, it is the time to encircle and suppress the state army, if the state army is allowed to return to Luoyang, relying on the thick walls of Luoyang City, it will inevitably cause trouble, and only in the field can the state army be defeated more quickly.

"Yes!"

The general, Hua Xiong, led 3,000 troops and went straight to the west of Luoyang City.

Dong Zhuo raised his head, his eyes were cold, looking at the firelight in the south, a piece of fire and a soldier, this is all the Bingzhou army, only by defeating the Bingzhou army, can it be regarded as completing the task of this battle: "Sons, it is our task to defeat the Bingzhou army, pass on my military order, all the departments gather, the main force has been killing since the south, and the Bingzhou army collapses!" ”

"Yes!"

The Xiliang generals were ordered, gathered the main force, and went towards the Bingzhou army.

The right flank of the Bingzhou Army, which is close to the north, was originally protected by the Southern Army Janissaries, but the Southern Army Janissaries have collapsed and fled under the strong attack of Xiliang, so the main force Wumeng Battalion is directly exposed to the weapons of the Xiliang Army.

"Kill!"

"Rush in!"

"Strangle them!"

The bravery of the Xiliang Army was vividly demonstrated at this time.

"What's going on?"

Zhang Yang, the commander of the Wumeng battalion, was facing the Sunset Pavilion wholeheartedly, and was suddenly killed by a force of soldiers and horses that went straight to the abdomen, and suddenly suffered heavy casualties, his eyes widened, and he looked at the northern defense line: "What about the southern army guards, how can there be enemy troops killed from the north?" ”

"General, the defense of Hou Xin's tribe in the north has collapsed, and all eight hundred soldiers have been killed!"

"Who's the flag?"

"Xiliang, Dong Zi Military Banner!"

"Xiliangjun, damn it!"

Zhang Yang was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly ordered: "Order to gather all the troops and horses, withdraw from the current party, and immediately send someone to tell Lord Fujun that the Xiliang army attacked my right flank, and the Wumeng battalion suffered heavy casualties, and it couldn't resist, so it immediately sent reinforcements." ”

"No!"

The herald carried the command flag and rode south to report it.

"The Xiliang army attacked my Wumeng battalion from the north?"

In the middle camp of the state army, the torches were erected one by one, reflecting a piece of light, Ding Yuanzheng was staring at the Sunset Pavilion with all his attention, and suddenly heard the news, panicked, and almost fell off the horse.

"Xiliang Army?" Lu Zhileng was cold, and suddenly came to his senses: "It turns out that this is Mushan's backhand, and he has formed an alliance with Dong Zhuo!" ”

Thinking like this, cold sweat continued to seep out of Lu Zhi's back.

The Nanyang Army is already very strong, plus the Xiliang Army, who else can stop it in this Luoyang City.

"Dong Zhongying!"

Ding Yuan looked up to the sky and roared, he had already received the news that the Xiliang Army was coming west, but he didn't pay too much attention to it, he thought that the Xiliang Army was just He Jin's soldiers and horses, but he couldn't imagine that the Xiliang Army was actually in alliance with Mushan.

"Jianyang, quickly gather up the troops and horses, change the attack to defense, otherwise the state army will be over!" Lu Zhi let out a loud sigh and said.

"Yes!"

Ding Yuan is also a veteran of a hundred battles, and his reaction can be regarded as fast: "Quick, let Zhang Liao withdraw the Shuofang battalion!" ”

on the main battlefield.

"Report!"

"Say!"

"The Xiliang Army has attacked, and it has already defeated the Southern Army Janissaries, and it has rushed southward to attack the Bingzhou Army!"

"Good!"

Mu Shan laughed and said, "Order, each battalion will attack, entangle the state army for me, and you must not let them retreat!" ”

"No!"

The generals of each department obeyed the order and ordered the counter-defense to attack in an all-round way.

"The enemy suddenly gave up his defense and attacked strongly?" At this time, Zhang Liao, who was still in the drum, shuddered, although he had not learned the news yet, but he already had a bad premonition.

On the battlefield, he believed in the feeling of the between, he clenched his fist, between advance and retreat, he did not chase and fight, but when he retreated: "Order, don't touch hard, retreat with the trend, retreat 100 meters!" ”

This is an offensive and defensive distance, not far from 100 meters, it can be attacked and defended, as long as there is no problem, he can kill back in an instant, if there is a problem, it is just enough distance to retreat.

"Captain, wouldn't it be better for them to attack?"

"Let's take advantage of the victory!"

When several of the main generals heard this, some of them objected.

After fighting for several hours, I couldn't break through the defense on the opposite side, and now the defense on the opposite side is just an opportunity.

"Humph!"

Zhang Liao was strict in governing the army, and the Shuofang battalion was still a soldier and horse trained by him, he snorted coldly and said: "Those who violate the military order will be killed!" ”

"No!"

The generals can only lead the order and slow down the strategy.

"What a quick response?" As soon as Huang Shao gave the order to counterattack, the opposite side of the state army retreated, he was suddenly a little surprised, his eyes were lifelike, and he wanted to see the other party's main general through the light in the darkness.

"Wrap it up!" Makiyama said in a deep voice.

"Hmm!"

Huang Shao nodded and said.

"Catch up, so daring!" Zhang Liao eased the offensive and defensive distance between the two sides, but he didn't expect the soldiers and horses on the opposite side to go further, and it was clear that they were going to fight to the death, which made him a little unsure.

"Captain!" A fast horse galloped over, and the herald jumped off the horse and bowed his head to report: "The prince has an order, withdraw quickly!" ”

"Withdraw?"

Zhang Liao frowned.

"The Xiliang Army attacked the right flank of our army, and the Wumeng battalion suffered heavy casualties, and our army has fallen under the attack from both sides in the northwest!" The herald quickly reported the situation.

"Damn it!"

When Zhang Liao heard this, a chill welled up in his heart, and he finally understood where the uneasy feeling came from: "Order, withdraw, withdraw quickly, don't fall in love with war!" ”

"Yes!"

The military marquis hurriedly stepped back.

"Lord Captain, the soldiers and horses in front are too tightly entangled!" A military marquis said.

"You withdraw first, I'll break it off, and the personal guard Qu will come with me!"

Zhang Liao personally led 500 guards to meet him.

The main force of the Shuofang battalion slowly retreated.

A night of chaotic fighting......

At dawn, after the defeat of the Bingzhou army, they gathered the remnants of the army and returned to the east of Luoyang City.

"Finally escaped!" Lu Zhi said: "As long as we return to Luoyang, we still have hope!" ”

The sun is already close at hand.

"Kill!"

"Don't let one go!"

Suddenly, a group of soldiers and horses came out of the woods on the left and right.

This is an ambush that the Xiliang Army has already arranged, and the general is Hua Xiong.

"There's an ambush!"

"Retreat, retreat!"

And the state army quickly retreated.

Under the successive defeats, the morale of the Bingzhou army collapsed, and it failed to enter Luoyang City, and was sandwiched by soldiers and horses from the northeast and west on a hill.

The morning sun rose slowly, breaking the darkness of the night.

On an unnamed hill less than three miles away from Luoyang, the remnants of the state and the tiger ben of Yuan Shu, there are only less than 20,000 soldiers left, and they are camped here.

Ding Yuan stood, looking down at the three sides of the mountain.

The left side of his abdomen and back were wrapped in this white scarf, under the white scarf, blood seeped out, he was injured, and Mu Shan himself shot a cold arrow, which hit the back and abdomen, but the distance was a little far, and it did not hurt the vital position, so it was only a small injury.

"Hahaha!!!"

His bitter smile sounded blankly: "It's because I'm too proud that I have this defeat!" ”

He was confident that no one could match the Bingzhou army, but he was defeated in the end.

"My lord, the state army has been surrounded, when will it attack?" On the west side of the hillside, Huang Shao looked at Mushan and asked.

"Now!"

Mu Shan said coldly: "Order the Quartet, flank and merge the state army!" ”

Since he has fought, he will not be relentless.

The Bingzhou army is brave, and it can't exist in Luoyang, which is not good for him, this Luoyang City already has his army, and the Xiliang Army, and he doesn't need to merge the state army, and he absolutely doesn't want to see the situation of the three armies.

"Lord, Mushan gives the order, attack!"

"Then attack!"

Dong Zhuo said: "I can't keep this state army!" ”

"No!"

The generals of Xiliang ordered a strong attack.

The siege and killing war broke out completely......
