412 Armageddon II
On this side, Zhao Yun quickly advanced, and on the other side, Guo Lie led the cavalry team under his command and the cavalry under the command of Yuan Shu's general, Le Yu, to start a duel, and the two sides shot at each other and engaged in close combat.
Guo Lie held a ring-headed knife and rushed left and right on the battlefield, his leg strength and waist and abdomen strength were very strong, and he could perform some difficult tactical actions that ordinary people could not complete, and cut three Yuan Shu's cavalry in a row, and he was invincible for a while.
After defending the state of Lu for a long time, Guo Lie missed the campaign against LΓΌ Bu and the campaign against Yuan Shao.
This time the battle against Yuan Shu was an opportunity for Guo Peng to show him his ability, and before sending troops, Guo Peng called Guo Lie and told him to seize this opportunity no matter what, and get enough military merits to become a senior officer group.
This is his goal and Guo Peng's expectation.
As a cronie who grew up with Guo Peng since childhood, the most talented and talented people with military talent and talent are him and Guo Dong, Guo Dong was entrusted with important tasks by Guo Peng in the north, and now is the time for Guo Lie to shine.
In response to this expectation, Guo Lie fought bravely and took the lead in the charge, which boosted the morale of his subordinates.
As soon as Le saw that it was not working, he immediately rushed up with his own personal guards cavalry to curb Guo Lie's charge.
The pro-soldier group of the two collided together, that is, a burst of people turned on their backs, and Guo Lie and Le were also on the right, catching and fighting, you cut a knife, I cut a knife, the knife slashed towards the other party's vital point, and the fight was called an earth-shattering.
Guo Lie accompanied Guo Peng to fight in groups since he was a child, received horseback riding training together, and his riding skills were exquisite, and later he learned to ride and shoot in the Changshui Cavalry, and his riding skills were further improved.
After that, he became a famous cavalry general in the army, and helped Guo Peng and Zhao Yun lead the cavalry from the beginning.
During the period of garrisoning the Lu State, he did not let go of his cavalry training, and often led his troops to do riding training in the mountains and fields, not wasting his skills, and long-term hard training in exchange for the advantage of the battlefield.
Despite this, Le was also very brave, and in the face of Guo Lie's rapid attack, he did not fall behind, and he fought on a par with him, and the guards on both sides also fought hard, and the battle situation was very stalemate for a while.
When Guo Lie finally thought of a tactic and deliberately sold a flaw to Le, when the two fought face to face, Guo Lie pretended to be weak and unstable, and was about to fall off the horse.
When Le saw it, he was overjoyed, and he slashed with a knife, but Guo Lie leaned back with his legs clamped on the horse's belly, narrowly avoided the blow, and slashed at Le Zuo's right waist with a wave of his hand.
The knife split the right side of Le's body, and immediately blood splattered, and Le's face shook a few times, fell off the horse, and died.
The main general was killed in battle, and some of the guards were immediately panicked and fled in all directions, while some of the guards were completely torn apart and wanted to die with the enemy at all costs, and jumped up from their horses and pounced on their enemies, and the two fell to the ground and scuffled together.
But on the whole, the cavalry corps, which had lost its main general, quickly broke up and was annihilated by the pursuit.
Zhao Yun, on the other hand, was relatively relaxed, he had never experienced such a hard battle as Guo Lie, but as soon as the battle began, he chose to rush straight to the location of the opponent's main general, rushed closer, shook his hand and threw out a short axe.
Just happened to be impartial, and the opponent's main general was overturned with an axe, and then this Yuan Shu's cavalry quickly dispersed.
I can only say that I was lucky.
However, luck is also a form of strength.
Led their respective cavalry to defeat Yuan Shu's cavalry, Zhao Yun and Guo Lie began to outflank Yuan Shu's rear road from both flanks according to the established plan.
When Guo Peng learned of the situation, he immediately ordered Cheng Lian and Hou Cheng to lead a cavalry to join Zhao Yun and Guo Lie's ranks, listen to their commands, and coordinate to outflank Yuan Shu's rear road, and use classic cavalry tactics to harass the opponent's rear army.
Without the protection of the cavalry, Yuan Shu's army basically only had infantry troops, and in this case, without mobile troops, their situation can be imagined.
There is no other way than to form a formation to protect oneself and be a turtle with a shrunken head.
As long as the opposing cavalry is defeated, then they will lose cover when retreating, and once they lose order, they will face a bloody collapse.
So at this time, Lu Mian, who noticed the fact that it was impossible for his army to defeat Guo Peng, immediately persuaded Yuan Shu to lead the elite to retreat.
He said that he was willing to stay and command the army to buy time for Yuan Shu's safe retreat.
"Guo Thief is strong, has already taken the advantage, our cavalry is scattered, in this way, the retreat will be cut off, will be attacked from both sides, that will be a big deal, before that, please Your Majesty immediately lead the elite to retreat, the last general is willing to be His Majesty's Royal Highness, protect Your Majesty's retreat!"
Yuan Shu was furious, did not listen at all, and forced the whole army to move forward.
"Our army cannot be defeated! The soldiers of the Son of Heaven cannot retreat! If you retreat, you are really defeated! Forward! To Lone Forward!! β
But how do they move forward?
The defeated front army of Chen's army had already begun to disperse, and the generals of the various armies could not control the situation, and the routed soldiers who had to flee in all directions were completely destroyed by the formation and turned around and ran.
Behind them, Guo Peng's army moved forward step by step, still maintaining a neat military formation in pursuit, making the deserters even more panicked.
Their frenzy of dispersal crushed the formations that followed them, and the atmosphere of panic and the act of charging terrified the Chinese army.
From the moment the first man fled with them, this massive rout could not be stopped at all.
The larger the number of troops, it is difficult to control not only when victorious, but also when defeated.
And too many people are really not necessarily a good thing, especially when most people are a rabble.
Yuan Shu made almost every mistake he could, and still refused to admit his defeat, seeing the wave of the army's rout gradually spreading from the front to his place, he even ordered the elite emperor's personal guards to shoot the routs with bows and arrows.
Not only that, but they also had to slaughter the defeated soldiers in formation and force them to go back to fight.
Compared to the murderous Guo Jun, they seem to feel that their colleagues are better to deal with.
So they scuffled with the Emperor's Guards, and soon broke down the defenses of the Emperor's Guards, and continued to flee backwards.
"Stop me! Stopped! Stop them all! Give me back to fighting! Tax-free for six years after victory! Seven years! Eight years! Decade!! Give me back to fighting!! β
Yuan Shu shouted hoarsely, drew his sword and pointed forward and roared desperately, trying to use his will to influence the overall situation.
But it doesn't seem to work.
Death is close at hand and tax exemption is far away, and no matter how you compare, you can't draw another conclusion.
Once the frenzy of rout began, it could not be contained, let alone the all-out slaughter of Guo Peng's army.
In order to expand the results of the battle, Guo Peng sent all the cavalry to pursue and block the road, wanting to capture Yuan Shu in one fell swoop, and the infantry army also pressed on one after another, killing the enemy and captives, all wanting to gain some benefits.
Zhao Rong, Zhu Ling, Jiang Qi, Ma Yan, Xia Zhao, Cao Xiu, Li Dian and Li Chuan and other generals took their subordinates and set off to pursue and kill the enemy army in accordance with Guo Peng's orders, giving the enemy a fatal blow and making some credit for themselves.
And so the victory was in hand.
