Chapter 115: Five Thousand Cavalry Broken Thief Battalion General Ren Gong was beheaded
Zhang Liang led an army of 150,000 day and night, but he was afraid of Xiaquyang City, where Zhang Bao was stationed. When he arrived outside the city, he saw Guan Yu leading the army to retreat directly to the side, and then when he saw the resolutely towering Xiaquyang City and the fluttering banner, Zhang Liang breathed a sigh of relief, and then raised his arms.
"Let's go, let's go into town!" With a wave of his arm, Zhang Liang led the army to slowly advance to Quyang City, but Guan Yu had already retreated to five or six miles away.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Liang smiled and said quite smugly: "It is said that the Han army is elite, and it is said that the Han generals are good at strategizing, but now I look at it and it is nothing more than that, under the city of Guangzong, he was defeated by this general and the great sage and good teacher, and now there are tens of thousands of troops and dare not compete with us!" ”
Then there was the ass of the surrounding teenagers.
As early as a day ago, the little colonel who was selected by Zhang Liao to surrender in the Yellow Turban returned to Xiaquyang City with the elites of the four big men, and said that Zhang Jiao would send reinforcements. For this reason, Zhang Liao also had a discussion with Guan Yu.
Originally, Guan Yu's suggestion was to lead an army of 50,000 to ambush on the road, but in the end he agreed to Zhang Liao's plan and ambush Zhang Liang under the gate of Quyang City, but the reason was that on the way, Zhang Liang would inevitably be prepared, and under Quyang City, some traps could be arranged first, and then flanked on both sides, and Zhang Liang's army would be defeated.
Therefore, today, Zhang Liang led his troops to come, but Guan Yu pretended to be afraid of being defeated, and then quickly withdrew his troops, the purpose was to let Zhang Liang relax his vigilance so that he could prepare for the ambush in the city!
It is also true that Zhang Liang saw the city of Xiaquyang that had not yet been captured, and at the same time saw Guan Yu's army that was constantly withdrawing, and then the whole army focused on Guan Yu's 30,000 army, and did not guard against Zhang Liao in Xiaquyang City at all!
And Zhang Liang looked at Guan Yu's army in the distance, and gradually let down his vigilance, but ordered the army to enter the city quickly. Only at this moment, the smoke billowed from the gate where the army in the city had just entered the city, and then all kinds of wailing voices were heard.
And because the army crowded into the city together, Zhang Liang, who was in the middle army, didn't know what was going on inside, but there were constantly Yellow Turban troops pouring out of the city, and there were countless people who trampled on each other!
...........................
At the city gate of Xiaquyang, Zhang Liao had already filled all the houses at the city gate twice with flammable materials, and then blocked all the exits, and then let the army enter the city, and after bringing about 30,000 troops into the city, Zhang Liao ordered people to shoot rockets and ignite the houses on both sides of the street.
Suddenly, there was a raging fire on both sides of the street, and Zhang Liang's army, which had already entered the city, could not advance or retreat because of the continuous entry of troops into the city behind, and countless people were burned by the fire.
Despite this, Zhang Liao did not intend to let go of the Yellow Turban Army who entered the city, but ordered the soldiers to shoot indiscriminately at Zhang Liang's army on the avenue with bows and arrows outside the houses on both sides, and countless golden thieves died under the chaotic construction!
Then the Yellow Turban thieves who entered the city could no longer hold on, so they rushed out of the city one after another, and the Chinese army and the rear army, which were still slightly defending Guan Yu, were immediately confused by the impact of the front army, and at the same time, they got the news of ambush from the mouth of the front army, and they were even more confused, and rushed to the rear army again.
At this time, Zhang Liang just knew the situation in the city, and when he was puzzled, Guan Yu led the army to arrive, Guan Yu had no intention, pretended to attack, and took the lead, so Guan Yu led the army to pass through countless deaths, and those who knelt on the ground and surrendered.
As soon as Zhang Liang saw that the general trend had gone, he broke through the siege with 30,000 Yellow Turban wrestlers as the basis for the protection of several generals, and after the 10,000 elite soldiers of the Yellow Turban Wrestlers, Zhang Liang fled with 20,000 troops like Guangzong City.
Poor Zhang Liang led an army of 150,000 to rescue Zhang Bao in high spirits, and after only half a day of fighting, he was set on fire by Zhang Liao, and Guan Yu threw away his armor and only led 20,000 people to retreat like Guangzong!
Seeing Zhang Liang push away, Guan Yu left 10,000 troops to assist Zhang Liao, who had just come out of the city after extinguishing the fire, to collect prisoners and clean up the battlefield, while he himself personally led an army of 20,000 to follow Zhang Liang and chase Zhang Liang away!
The two armies also did not have war horses, so they launched a life-and-death chase on the road from Xiaquyang to Guangzong, and although the Yellow Turban Warriors led by Zhang Liang were elite, they had been marching for several days and were quite tired.
When there were only two days left before Guangzong, Zhang Liang felt that escape was in sight, but Zhang Liang saw an army of knights coming towards Guangzong to kill him.
This cavalry is the only 5,000 cavalry in the entire Han army led by Lu Bu, who has already been dispatched by Liu Bei!
On that day, Liu Bei found Lü Bu alone, and then instructed Lü Bu to lead 5,000 cavalry all the way south, and then turn west, find a suitable place between Guangzong and Xia Quyang to ambush Guangzong's reinforcements, and there was no need to ambush to support Xia Quyang's army. If there is a yellow scarf turning from Xiaquyang, you only need to defeat the rotation army!
And Lu Bu had been waiting here for several days, feeding mosquitoes for several days, but at this time, he sprinkled all his anger on Zhang Liang's army of 20,000.
There is no doubt that the 20,000-strong army was easily defeated under the attack of Lu Bu and Guan Yu, and there were very few escapees, most of them were killed, but the thief Zhang Liang was picked up by Lu Bu on the Fang Tian Painting Halberd, from the beginning of the battle to the end of the battle, Zhang Liang was hung on the Fang Tian Painting Halberd. This is also one reason why the Yellow Turban Lux was defeated so quickly!
For the Yellow Turban Warriors, Guan Yu and Lu Bu did not leave any prisoners, but after killing all the prisoners, the two led an army of less than 25,000 to Guangzong and marched away, but they did not plan to return to Quyang City!
This is, the two discussed after the war, this time Zhang Liang was killed, and there were many soldiers who escaped, and these soldiers were all diehard Zhang Jiao, and they would inevitably return to Guangzong City to report to Zhang Jiao.
Once Zhang Jiao knew about this, he would inevitably send troops to attack Liu Bei to vent his hatred, but Liu Bei only had almost 40,000 people in the camp at this time, but he couldn't resist Zhang Jiao's army of more than 200,000!
As for Zhang Liao in Xiaquyang, the two of them are not worried, Zhang Liao's ability can definitely be arranged.
At this time, under Quyang City, Zhang Liao had already collected all the prisoners, and after this battle, Zhang Liao and Guan Yu killed a total of 40,000 troops, except for the 30,000 troops who fled, the rest of the 80,000 troops were captured by Zhang Liao.
And Zhang Liao carefully screened, and then selected 40,000 from the 80,000 army that were not die-hard and strong to fill the army, and obtained a total of 70,000 troops.
After that, he trained an army of 70,000 day and night for three days, and then sent 5,000 original Han elite soldiers and 5,000 soldiers to garrison the people of Xiaquyang, while Zhang Liao himself took 60,000 troops to leave Xiaquyang City and go towards Guangzong City!
Due to Zhang Liao's assurance, as long as all the strong people are willing to help the Han defeat Zhang Jiao, the time will inevitably be sure that the imperial court will not blame the past, and everyone will have land and a house to live in, and will not arbitrarily increase taxes and miscellaneous taxes! That's why the elites who surrendered were so desperate!
In fact, this was also specially told by Liu Bei to Zhang Liao and Guan Yu. The reason why the common people rebelled with Zhang Jiao was nothing more than because they were pressured by the Han court to eat, and they were thieves in desperation, not to mention that there were many people who rebelled because they were coerced by the yellow scarf.
And now, Zhang Liao, on behalf of Liu Bei, assured them that he would never pursue it afterwards, nor would he harm innocents, and would give them land and reduce taxes, where would anyone be stupid enough to joke with his name?
Therefore, it became possible to recruit the Yellow Turbans, and for the heavier Yellow Turban thief army who were bewitched by Zhang Jiao, Zhang Liao also imprisoned them, because Liu Bei told him that as long as the battle was over, these people would no longer be bewitched by others, and they would definitely continue to be transformed into people!
And Zhang Liao and Guan Yu did it one by one, and at this time, there were 90,000 former golden thieves imprisoned in the entire Xiaquyang City!
Two days later, Lu Bu and Guan Yu quietly arrived at Liu Beijun's camp and talked about what had happened in Quyang City. And Liu Bei and other generals heard Guan Yu say that almost all the 250,000 troops were annihilated, but they all wanted to hold a banquet to celebrate!
Even Cao Cao, who had always been quite disdainful of Liu Bei, felt that his face was hot for a while at this time!
At the beginning, Cao Cao felt that Liu Bei was an unclear identity of the imperial family, and then bought an official, so that he became Liu Bei's big-eared liar today. But later, when he saw that he put forward a plan to destroy the enemy, Cao Cao's attitude changed a little, but he still felt that Liu Bei was a big-eared liar, but the evaluation became that he was a big-eared liar with a little ability, relying on the unclear identity of the royal family, and bought an official's big-eared liar!
Until now, he has really beheaded the 250,000 army under the horse, but Cao Cao began to appreciate Liu Bei a little, although Liu Bei's identity is problematic, although his official position is problematic, he is still a liar, but his ability to use soldiers is not far from his own!
But Cao Cao is a few fierce generals under Liu Bei, and he is quite hot-eyed!
