Chapter 20: The Great River Freezes and Chaos Wuxing (II)
Five thousand iron horsemen surrounded the camp of the Yuan army while wantonly setting fires, while rampage as much as possible to kill and injure, and Lu Bu himself personally led more than 100 horsemen to the west of the camp more than 100 steps away, first killed Chun Yuqiong, and then bent the bow and arrows, pointing directly at Yuan Shao, shocking Yuan Benchu's soul to scatter, but it was too late to deal with it.
In other words, Lu Bu grew up in the border county area under the Yin Mountain since he was a child, and when he became an adult, he experienced the Yellow Turban Rebellion and participated in the decisive battle of the defensive battle in the pass.
Not to mention, the merit of this arrow is enough to kill and wound 100,000 soldiers!
So, with his instinct, he aimed at Yuan Shao with a steel arrow, and then pulled the bowstring with all his might, actually trying to shoot the other party, the leader of the Kwantung Alliance, on the spot.
However, when an arrow was shot, it was actually crooked, and it landed more than ten steps away from Yuan Shao!
The guards on the left and right, as well as the Yuan army on the opposite side, were all shocked, but Lu Bu himself knew that it was going to be bad as soon as he made a move...... Even Huang Yuan, who was beside him, woke up instantly, and then couldn't help but sigh up to the sky.
It turned out that Lu Fengxian liked the slingshot the most to vent his anger, but this way hurt the bow the most, and when he didn't usually fight, Lu Bu would have to change a good bow in a few months, and this bow had been plucked repeatedly a few days before because of Hu Zhen's sake, so in the end, he had injured the bowstring in the struggle just now, so that he was weak and weak.
Counting it up, it was Hu Zhen who saved Yuan Shao's life!
Back in front of him, after this arrow, there was naturally a heavily armored warrior of the Yuan army holding a shield to protect Yuan Shao. And when Lu Bu saw this, how could he be willing to give up such a great achievement? The man immediately threw down the broken bow and arrow, and then raised the spear forward and went straight to Yuan Shao.
In the cold winter of Layue, Yuan Benchu had already been shocked into a cold sweat when he was at that arrow, so that he was soaked all over, and then he was weak and unable to move at all. However, his behavior made many of the strategists and officers around him think that he would continue to command here...... In addition to admiration, it made some people who understood angry.
"What is Ming Gong thinking, is this the time to be a hero?"
"Ming Gong quickly entered the camp, and it was not the time for a decisive battle with Dong Zhuo and Gongsun Xun, so he had to save a useful body!"
Not to mention that Guo Tu and Xin Ping, the two Yingchuan people, tried their best to persuade them, but Xu You and Feng Ji, the two Nanyang people who followed first, immediately pounced, and simply dragged the other party to the camp gate under the escort of the soldiers.
"The whole army lined up to intercept! With a little support and the army turning, this battle can be won! ”
Xin Ping, who stayed outside the camp gate, was the most senior and immediately shouted for dispatch, and since Chun Yuqiong was dead, Han Juzi, the highest-ranking general in the Chinese army next to Yuan Shao, also immediately led the armor soldiers forward and tried to intercept Lu Bu in front of the gate.
In other words, Yuan Benchu is the fourth and third duke, and he is the leader of the Kwantung Alliance, plus his people are stationed in Hanoi, a place that extends in all directions, so not only the famous families of the world have come to take refuge, but countless powerful families with ambitions, ideals or speculative thoughts, ranger warriors, have also come to join the army...... Thanks to this, Yuan Shao's quality of the Chinese army tiger guard is actually really not bad.
Therefore, seeing that Lu Bu only led a hundred cavalry to break into battle, shot Chun Yuqiong, forced Yuan Shao to retreat, and Han Juzi went down, these selected Chinese army soldiers were not afraid, but stepped forward bravely, ready to show their skills in front of Yuan Shao.
However, how could Lu Bu and his subordinates be afraid?
For a time, the two armies were long and short-bladed, and the horses were iron-clad, and they were killed at the gate.
And almost as soon as the battle was engaged, the warbands were broken limbs flying sideways, red and white gushing, shouting and wailing, fire and bright blades, all kinds of battle formations were tragic, and so on......
Yuan Shao and all the celebrities and wise men who were reluctant to retreat around him, how could they have seen such a scene? They were also speechless, speechless, and inevitably pale and panicked.
However, although Lu Bu's offensive was strong, and there were cavalry across the battlefield like the wind, after all, there were sufficient troops in Yuan's camp, and only in terms of the battlefield at Yuanmen, because of Yuan Shao himself, there were naturally waves of reinforcements pouring out.
Lu Bu was riding on a horse, spear and horse, and killed several armored warriors in a row, but he finally broke through a layer of interception, but saw a team of samurai pouring out of his own camp. Moreover, although this team of warriors is not equipped with the same equipment as Yuan Shao's personal guards, they are well-behaved, and dozens of warriors in the front have held wooden shields, and when they came to the Yuanmen, they were not in a hurry to step forward, but raised their shields and lay down, and set up a dense shield array at the Yuanmen.
What's even worse is that behind this group of samurai are dozens of spearmen and dozens of crossbowmen, who are acting in a measured manner at this time, fast but not chaotic, and they are rushing one after another.
How could Lu Bu not understand that this was a real expert who was good at dealing with cavalry? When the spear is on the shield wall, and the crossbowman stands behind the gap between the spearmen, unless it is a heavy cavalry with full horse armor, even the elite cavalry like the white horse will be sad to pass this door!
And when he turned around again, he saw the fire on the surface of the big river behind the golden embankment behind him...... There is no doubt that this must be the more than 10,000 troops who noticed the abnormality behind them, and then the leading generals were of excellent quality, and they immediately made a decision, gave up attacking Hu Zhen, and turned back to try to rescue!
In this situation, Lu Bu raised his head and sighed, then retreated and turned around.
Huang Yuan and the others thought that their generals had given up, so they were ready to withdraw and return to the team. And at this moment, Lu Fengxian, who had retreated dozens of steps, suddenly turned to Yuanmen again, and then slammed the horse's belly, urging Lu Baoma under his crotch to rush to Yuanmen, and in front of the team of big shield warriors, he struggled to lift the reins!
In the firelight, Lu Ma jumped hard, and actually carried Lu Fengxian, who was like a god descending from heaven, over the shield wall that had not yet set up a spear and crossbow, and flew into the back of the gate.
Lu Bu landed safely, roared, and took advantage of the stunned Yuan Jun in the gate to kill several people in a row, and actually took Yuan Shao directly!
And Yuan Shao, who had just taken a breath, was frightened again in the face of such a brave move!
In fact, it was not only Yuan Shao, the Yuan army in the entire Yuanmen was in a mess, some people were directly frightened and scattered, some people lost their minds in a hurry, some people shouted and screamed, and some people had cold hands and feet.
However, compared with the rest of the armor soldiers, soldiers and horses who were almost frightened by Lu Bu and were incapacitated, the troops in Yuan's army with shields, spears, and crossbows showed extremely high discipline...... Although he was a little frightened by Lu Bu's almost god-like behavior at first, he still maintained enough action in addition to being frightened.
In fact, the leader of this army was the first officer of the Yuan army to react, and with the command of his obvious Liangzhou accent, this group of soldiers and horses immediately withdrew their shields and spears and turned to deal with Lu Bu!
However, the reason why Lu Bu jumped into the camp was because he was a little unbalanced by the missed arrow before, and the rise of killing on the battlefield made such a risky move. Moreover, since he jumped into the camp on his own, he could not regret it, and in fact he did not have the time to regret it. Therefore, he didn't pay attention to the soldiers and horses behind him at all, but regardless of the struggle, he killed and slashed ...... It was as if there was only one stunned Yuan Shao in his eyes.
"Lu thief eats arrows!"
At the critical moment, it was the Liangzhou accent that played an effect.
Lu Bu instinctively slowed down and dodged sideways...... found that there were no arrows at all, as if they were maliciously defrauding him in a hurry.
However, this shout reminded Xu You and Feng Ji, the two people who knew the opportunity, that when they saw that Lu Bu had no bow in his hand, they simply drove Yuan Shao, who had lost his mind, again and fled to the rear.
In the chaos, Lu Bu, who missed the opportunity because he was stationed on his horse to avoid arrows, caught a glimpse of Yuan Shao's back, and was anxious, but he threw his bow and arrow early...... But the opportunity must not be missed, and his person simply raised his spear, ready to throw it at Yuan Shao's back.
However, someone was quicker than him, and before Lu Bu could try to throw his spear, with a hissing from Luma, the tiger warrior would be almost knocked to the ground...... When he looked back, he saw an arrow on the buttocks of Lu Ma by the light of the fire, blood flowing, and not far away, there was a general holding an empty horn bow, panting there, and it turned out to be the previous officer of the Yuan army with a Liangzhou accent.
Lu Bu hated it in his heart, but he knew that the last chance had been lost, so he no longer had nostalgia, and turned to fight horses and leave the camp...... Fortunately, in order to support Yuan Shao's shield array, Huang Yuan and others outside the gate fought hard to fight back to respond, and Lu Ma only injured the horse's buttocks, but let him easily rush out of the gate.
However, when the people rushed out of the gate for dozens of steps, they couldn't help but turn back again, raising their spears and asking each other hatefully: "Does the horse shooter dare to leave his name?!" ”
"Hirahara Juyi is also!" This person's Liangzhou accent is clear and unmistakable, but he opens his mouth to claim to be from the plains.
And since Lu Bu knew his name, he didn't bother to think about it, he just laughed loudly, and then suddenly threw the spear in his hand outside the gate that had not been thrown before!
Ju Yi was shocked and hurriedly leaned over to dodge!
But with a scream, everyone could see clearly, it was actually Han Juzi, the general of the Chinese army who was stunned at the gate, who was pierced through the abdomen with a spear and nailed to the ground, seeing that he was about to be crippled if he didn't die!
Seeing this, Lu Bu laughed more and more, and directly urged the horse to gallop empty-handed in the panic of countless Yuan Jun and led the crowd away. And it wasn't until this person disappeared into the west firelight, at the chaotic Yuan Junyuanmen, that Qi Qi breathed a sigh of relief.
I have to say that Han Juzi's screaming for help played a huge role in Yuan Jun's recovery of consciousness. Moreover, fortunately, there is a Ju Yi who has not lost his temper and the well-disciplined private soldiers of his headquarters are here to maintain order and save fires.
"Isn't this person the courage of ghosts?" Xin Ping, who was covered in blood, fled from outside the gate to Yuan Shao, and his people looked back at the messy battlefield, and couldn't help but be the first to look up to the sky and sigh.
The rest of the wise men were also speechless.
And Yuan Shao was stunned for a long time and didn't say a word, but when Han Juzi, who was gradually already angry, was lifted up and sent to the back tent, he suddenly faced the mess all over the ground, crying bitterly, and even leaned over and hammered the ground.
Feng Ji dragged Yuan Shao to escape twice just now, and naturally knew in his heart that the other party was really frightened just now, but at this time, he suddenly cried bitterly, but he didn't know what was going on?
Is it an outpouring of emotion or fear of gaffes, or a sudden awakening to perform?
But no matter what, as the other party's most trusted confidant strategist, or maybe the only one with a brain still working, Feng Ji can only talk to the other party at this time, or remind:
"Ming Gong commanded Ruoding before, he would rather die than retreat, and many soldiers were infected, but now that Lu Bu is gone, how can he cry instead?"
"Does Yuan Tu think I'm acting?!" Yuan Shao reluctantly stopped, but his face was still full of pain. "I really regret it...... If it weren't for Lu Bu's trip today, I'm afraid that I would still be complacent as the leader of ASEAN, thinking of manipulating people's hearts, so much so that I even regard the war as child's play! And if I could wake up a few days earlier, why would I let General Chun Yu die suddenly and let Captain Han end up in the current situation? Today's defeat is not in the soldiers, nor in the gentlemen, but in me!"
After that, he wept so much that he beat his chest,
Whether it is Feng Ji or Guo Tu next to him, he instinctively wants to take advantage of the situation to praise and encourage Yuan Shao, but when he thinks of Lu Bu's courage before, and Yuan Shao's true feelings of more than eight points in front of him, he can't say a word of flattery.
And it wasn't until Zhang He, Han Meng, Wen Chou, and Gao Lanzhong returned with their troops, the shouting and killing gradually subsided, and the surrounding soldiers began to fight fires on a large scale, that someone began to comfort and flatter Yuan Shao.
However, I haven't had time to persuade a few more words...... Xu You, who had been speechless on the side, suddenly sighed, and interrupted the gentlemen and ministers of these people:
"Primatim! Yuan Che rides, is this the time to cry here? Something big is going to happen in Hanoi! ”
"Xu Ziyuan, what are these words?" Before Yuan Shao spoke, Guo Tu next to him had already asked angrily. "Although it is dangerous today, it is only that the camp was burned, and General Chun Yu and Captain Han were damaged, at most it was frustrated by the spirit, where did the big deal come from?"
"I don't mean us!" Xu You retorted helplessly. "It's Wang Kuang who is going to be emptied! And even if it's us, I'm afraid it's not just these two who have lost this time...... Think about it, in the middle of the night, whether the cavalry is rushing, or whether our army and Wang Kuang's subordinates support each other, can we only march along the embankment of the Yellow River to ensure that we do not lose our way and do not disperse? ”
Most of the people present were wise and resourceful, and when they heard the words, they all woke up, and then they were all shocked:
"What Mr. Ziyuan means is that General Yan Liang is actually bound to collide with Lu Bu...... General Keyan has 5,000 cavalry?! ”
"But if General Yan's headquarters is undefeated, why is Lu Bu here? As Mr. Ziyuan said, in the dark night, long-distance attacks, the enemy and us can only march along the embankment of the Yellow River to move quickly. ”
"In fact, if you think about it carefully, before Xiaopingjin was on fire, and then Lu Bu attacked from the west along the big river, can it be said that Wang Kuang's remaining troops have also been completely wiped out? With Lu Bu's bravery, if he sneaks across the river and raids, he may be able to win quickly. ”
"It's not all." Xu You sighed again and sighed. "Think about it, we saw Xiao Pingjin on fire, even if we had a bad heart, we all hurriedly sent General Yan to do things with the camera, and now if Wang Kuang hurriedly returned to Xiaopingjin, where there were not many enemy troops, and then saw us on fire here, with the respect of our people to our Yuan Che ride, even if they were afraid, wouldn't they send troops to help?"
"Not bad." Feng Ji also completely woke up. "Wang Kuang sent a letter before, saying that he led 8,000 troops upstream, and now how many troops can he send to help us? And once they collide head-on again, although they all say that they have worked hard overnight, but one side has horses, one side has no horses, one side has won a row, and one side sees that the camp is on fire everywhere...... I'm afraid that it will be defeated in another battle! ”
"So, the Prince's Day is over?" Yuan Shao completely stopped crying, but he couldn't help but be frightened...... I was thinking about annexing the other party before, but I heard that the princes who had more than 10,000 troops were emptied like this, and their people died and became sad.
"Wang Kuang is finished!" Xin Ping asserted in a deep voice, which made Yuan Benchu completely dead.
"There is a master behind Lu Bu!" Xu You finally sighed faintly. "Not only did he calculate that the Yellow River embankment could help the cavalry easily attack at night, but also calculated that Wang Kuang was strong on the outside, arrogant on the outside and cowardly on the inside, and conservative in everything; It is also accurate that we actually have ill intentions towards Wang Kuang...... This is really, insightful! Such a wise man drives such a brave general, we are not unjustly defeated! ”
The fire has begun to be brought under control, but the atmosphere in the camp of the Yuan army, which is gradually restoring order, is becoming more and more solemn.
Of course, this group of people is still one thing behind...... That is Wang Kuang's prince's day, this person is not only arrogant on the outside and cowardly on the inside, strong on the outside, but also very unpopular in Hanoi.
It is said that after his people worked hard to lead the army back to Xiaopingjin, they saw Fang Yue's corpse on the one hand, and saw the fire in the Wushejin camp where Yuan Shao was located, and thought that Dong Zhuo's army was attacking on all fronts, so he was extremely timid for a while, but he didn't dare not go to rescue Yuan Shao, so in the end, he took Hao Meng as the general and led the troops to rescue, but he threw down the burned Xiaopingjin and went to Wenxian County behind him to hide.
And Lu Bu followed Jia Xu's instructions, on the way back to Xiaopingjin from Wushejin, and when he bumped into Wang Kuang's subordinates again, Hao Meng, who was frozen and tired, simply knelt on the ground and led the crowd to surrender!
And it wasn't until two or three days that the dust of this battle settled, and all parts of Henan and Hanoi suddenly learned that in this battle, Lu Bu used the strategy of Jia Xu, the commander of Xiaopingjin, to only mention 5,000 cavalry to cross the river and fight at night, first burning the camp of Wang Kuang in Xiaopingjin, and then burning the camp of Yuan Shao in Wushejin, and killing three generals along the way, abolishing one general, reducing one general, breaking more than 10,000 troops, surrendering 8,000, and the damage of his own army was less than 1,000!
When the world is a tiger, stepping on Sanjin and crossing the Yellow River, it can be called a roaring world! And the name of Jia Wenhe and Dingce chaotic force is also spreading.

When the cloth was victorious, he returned and asked: 'In the past, it was difficult to overcome the other generations, but now with five thousand, with the words of the king, how can it be victorious?' He said, "This is easy to know." The general Benshan cavalry, although he crossed the river late at night and attacked, especially the golden embankment of the Yellow River leaned on it, and the traffic was not chaotic. and the rebel thief Wang Kuang, strong and middle-handed, arrogant and cowardly, seeing that the suspicious soldiers will go and divide the army, they can be driven away; As for the Yuan army, although there are many people, but they have bad intentions, and the intention of driving the tiger and devouring the wolf is very serious, they will wait and see with a small number of soldiers, and they can also be driven away, and they will be arrogant and indulging in young forces, once they are in battle, they will suddenly lose.

PS: I'm really sorry today...... I thought I could finish the yard in the middle of the night, but I went to bed because it was cold, and then I was too tired, and I fell asleep in bed with a notebook in my arms...... I got up in the morning to move bricks, and it was the first day of work, so I didn't want to fish, so I forced myself to secretly open the document at noon and finish a chapter.
I really want to kowtow and apologize.
