Chapter Seventy-Four: The Burning of Yuan's Legacy (Part II)
"Find out where there are no enemy cavalry." Yuan Yi said in a deep voice, how could he not panic in his heart, but Yuan Yi knew that the more he was at such a time, the more he had to remain calm and calm.
Soldiers continued to rush out of the woods, and at this time, Yuan Yi's order was useless for the soldiers who were in danger, and they were desperate to leave this place.
In the face of the fire, the soldiers under Yuan Zhi's command looked so fragile, and there were constantly soldiers falling in the smoke, what would greet these fainting soldiers, Yuan Zhi was clear.
Looking at the scene in the woods where the army was hiding, Yuan Yi's mood became more and more depressed, he originally thought that this raid was nine out of ten, Peng Cheng must not be prepared, but he didn't expect his whereabouts to leak, and he was blocked in the woods for the enemy.
As the fire grows bigger, what fate will befall them.
"Taishou, the situation is chaotic, it is difficult for our army to investigate at all, it is better to return the same way." The Lieutenant persuaded.
Yuan Yi watched the fire in the forest getting bigger and bigger, nodded helplessly, the bitterness in his heart can be imagined, he originally thought that this time he led a large army to raid Pengcheng and capture Pengcheng, and then Lu Bu could only flee in the wilderness, and he would take advantage of the situation to become a pivotal figure in Yanzhou, and even give Yuan Shao more help.
Unexpectedly, the situation turned into the current situation.
The point is that now, even the leader of the enemy army does not know who the leading generals are, and what a grievance this is.
But this is also the cruelty of war, and choosing to take this path means that there will be death.
The fire became more and more ferocious, and Yuan Yi led his soldiers to finally get out of this deadly forest.
Originally, there were 5,000 elite soldiers under his command, but now there are only more than 1,000 left.
Just as Yuan Yi walked out of the woods only a few hundred steps, he saw the Xuzhou cavalry waiting in front of him.
The banner of the word "Lu" was waved in the wind, and the bows and arrows in the hands of the cavalry were aimed at this team that had managed to escape.
"Could it be that Marquis Wen led the cavalry here?" The captain's expression was cloudy.
In the Xuzhou Army, it is very likely that Lu Bu is the one who carries the banner of "Lu", because under Lu Bu, there is no general surnamed Lu, and these cavalry are also the most elite existence in the Xuzhou Army.
Yuan Yi glared at Du Wei, it was because of Du Wei's words that Yuan Yi chose to retreat from the road he came from, if he really encountered Lu Bu on the way to retreat, it would be a nightmare.
"A certain Marquis Wen, dare to ask who is the commander of this army?" Lu Buce stepped forward immediately, and the halberd in his hand was raised slightly.
Yuan Yi's back was in cold sweat, and under the influence of the fire, the air looked hot and dry, but Yuan Yi's mood fell into a trough, and he even felt a little cold in his hands and feet.
Lu Bu's greatest prestige among the princes is that he is brave and good at fighting, outside the Tiger Prison Pass, one person fought against Liu Guanzhang and the others, which raised Lu Bu's prestige to the top, and any general who dared to fight against Lu Bu in the front was worthy of admiration.
Yuan Yi was in a very bad mood, the soldiers who followed Yuan Yi out of the woods were not like this, they originally thought that if they escaped from the woods, they would be able to leave this land that made them sad, but in the blink of an eye, they met Lu Bu.
At this point, even if they wanted to turn around and flee back into the woods, it was impossible, and the fire was burning enough to engulf them.
"Kill it." Yuan Yu didn't plan to talk to Lu Bu, if he let Lu Bu know that he was in the army, I am afraid that a more ferocious attack would follow.
"Ben Hou guessed that Shanyang Taishou Yuan Zhi would inevitably be in the army, and the person who captured Yuan Yu alive would be rewarded with 100 gold and his official position would be promoted by two levels." Lu Bu shouted.
As soon as these words came out, the cavalry behind Lu Bu was excited, and if he wanted to promote his official position among the cavalry, he needed more credit than the foot soldiers, the cavalry had strong combat capabilities, and it was easier to protect himself on the battlefield.
Becoming a cavalryman is something that many foot soldiers dream of.
"Whoever lays down his sword will not die!" Lu Bu shouted again.
The soldiers around Yuan Yi couldn't help but show hesitation, the current situation can be said to be extremely urgent for them, the key is to not know how many people there are in the enemy army, if they rashly follow Yuan Yi to rush forward, there will be a danger to their lives.
When the officers and men in the army have lost their fighting spirit, how can they compete with the wolf-like Xuzhou cavalry.
However, Yuan Yi has no other choice, the soldiers in the army can surrender, he can't, once he falls under Lu Bu's control, what will happen, he knows very well.
"Kill!" Yuan Yi shouted: "There are not many enemy soldiers. ”
The cavalry rumbled, and many soldiers directly put down their blades and dodged to the side, they did not dare to collide with the cavalry head-on.
Lü Bu led the cavalry and was invincible in Yuan's army, and no one dared to come forward to confront Lü Bu.
Put away the halberd, Lu Bu took out the ambergris bow and shot down Yuan Zhi's banner with an arrow, which made the soldiers under Yuan Zhi's command even more panicked, and there were not a few soldiers who scattered and fled.
Fortunately, there were still soldiers in the army who were loyal to Yuan Yu, and they were able to escape from the battle to protect Yuan Yu.
Lu Bu led the cavalry that blocked Yuan Yi, but there were only two hundred people, and it was difficult to completely leave Yuan Yi and the others behind.
Gathering soldiers and cleaning up the battlefield, Lu Bu did not pursue Yuan Yi's army, through the capture, he already knew that Yuan Yi was in the army, but the current stability of Xuzhou is the most important thing for Lu Bu.
And this cavalry battle defeated Yuan Yi's army, so that the officials in Xuzhou saw the strength of their own army, and they would be more cautious when making some choices.
In the afternoon of the next day, Lü Bu came to the outside of Pengcheng, accompanied by more than 1,000 prisoners.
There are still people and businessmen at the gate of Pengcheng, but the intensity of the inventory is more strict than before, and the situation in Xuzhou is tense, and the impact on Pengcheng is still relatively large.
The Xuzhou army is fighting against the Yanzhou army, the battle is urgent, and if Pengcheng is lost, it means that Lu Bu's era in Xuzhou has passed.
Even though Lu Bu has all kinds of martial arts, after losing Peng Cheng as his support, it is categorically difficult to continue to take charge of Xuzhou, and the situation in Xuzhou will undergo earth-shaking changes.
The choice of the Chen family and the Mi family is likely to be related to the direction of the two families in the future.
The change of rulers of the city will have a limited impact on the families in the city, and it depends on when.
The cavalry came from far and near, causing a lot of confusion at the city gates.
"There is no need to panic, this is Wen Hou leading the soldiers and horses back to help." The city gate general got the news and shouted.
The chaos of the people and merchants gradually subsided, and the Xuzhou cavalry crisscrossed the territory, invincible, making the enemy fearful.
