After receiving the decree of Emperor Ling of Han, Lu Bu very happily promised to send troops immediately.

Nearby, from Jizhou, Xu Huang immediately set off from Julu and went to Luoyang to rescue the driver.

This time, he mobilized Xu Rong's First Brigade of the Trapped Camp, Zhang He's First Cavalry Brigade, Guan Hai's Second Brigade of Rong and Hao Zhao's Independent Brigade.

The elite of the 20,000 and state army, known as the 50,000 army to the outside world, marched south from Julu, crossed the Yellow River from Baima, and sent documents to Luoyang every day to inform them of their itinerary, and finally blocked the elite of the 80,000 Qingzhou army that rushed all the way to the west in Suojube.

Xu Huang and the Tiger Mask Army Division quietly had an unknown meeting, the Tiger Face Man told Xu Huang his plan, Xu Huang also made some additions to his plan according to the situation of the State Army, and still admired the Tiger Face Army Division's unrestrained ideas, and promised to cooperate with the Qingzhou Army and play a good show.

The next day, the Bingzhou army, which had just arrived, started a decisive battle with the Qingzhou army, which had been waiting for many days.

Both sides were dispatched with their whole armies, and a fierce battle was fought in a place far away from the county town of Suozao, and the shouts of killing shook the sky, and could be heard dozens of miles away.

However, both sides have sent open and secret sentries around the battlefield, and once an unknown person approaches, there will be no mercy. The spies of the imperial court could only watch from a distance, but they could still see that there was a river of blood on the ground, and corpses were all over the field!

The two sides fought fiercely for a day and a night, and the battle did not end until noon the next day. After this battle, the Qingzhou army announced that it had suffered heavy casualties and no longer marched westward, but turned to Jiyang and was going to return to Qingzhou.

And Xu Huang of the Bingzhou Army sent good news to Luoyang, and also piled up a large number of heads of the Qingzhou Army on the battlefield into Jingguan!

The good news said that the elite of the 50,000 Bingzhou Army led by Xu Huang fought a bloody battle with the elite of the 80,000 Qingzhou Army in Suojube, and the battle lasted for two days and one night, and the best Bingzhou Army suffered heavy losses to the Qingzhou Army at the cost of 30,000 casualties, at least about 50,000 casualties, and the bare head was cut off almost 30,000.

However, the Bingzhou army itself also suffered heavy casualties, and it was unable to catch up with the remnants of the Qingzhou army, so it could only stick to the sour jujube to prevent the Qingzhou army from attacking again, and also asked the imperial court to urge the central official army of Huangfu Song to quickly eliminate the Qingzhou army after the heavy loss.

Xu Huang wrote at the end of the good news that the only regret in this battle was that the cunning Qingzhou army sneaked up on the baggage camp of the Bingzhou army and stole a lot of equipment from the Bingzhou army, such as bows and crossbows and some horses. Fortunately, the Qingzhou Army itself has suffered huge casualties, and I'm afraid no one will use it when I get these equipment!

Emperor Han Ling and He Jin soon received this blood letter, seeing such a tragic loss, they couldn't help but be stunned, combined with the return of the secret agent, it seems that the Bingzhou army is really playing with their lives, with the world's largest combat power of the Bingzhou army, the casualties are so large, the Qingzhou army must have suffered heavy losses.

It seems that although Lu Bu is a little arrogant and a little arrogant, but at the critical moment, he has to rely on him to fight, and he is loyal, maybe he can give Lu Bu some benefits in the future? He Jin also sent someone to copy a copy of this blood book, and sent it to Huangfu Song urgently for 800 miles, so that he must annihilate the remaining elite of the Qingzhou army, and not let one person slip through the net!

When the army of Huangfu Song took place in the battle of sour jujube, it had already felt the Changyi of Shanyang County, and heard that the elite of the Qingzhou army had fought a bloody battle with the Bingzhou army in sour jujube for two days and one night, and later received an urgent battle report of 800 li from the imperial court.

The Bingzhou army inflicted heavy losses on the Qingzhou army with 30,000 casualties, and conservatively estimated that nearly 50,000 people were killed.

The strong combat power of the Bingzhou army is recognized by all departments of the Han army, because Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, Lu Zhi, Dong Zhuo and others have all dealt with and fought with foreign tribes in the grassland, so they naturally know the strength of the grassland cavalry.

The battle of Liangcheng of the state army has been participated in by several states that have sent reinforcements, and the final results have also spread all over the world, although the common people may know the deeds of the exaggerated and deified Lu Bu, but the generals of the Han army still know the truth.

The combat strength of the state army is really good, so the casualty figure of 30,000 for 50,000 is still credible.

Then the remaining Qingzhou army has at most 30,000 or 40,000 people, which is still the defeated army after the war, and the central official army with more than 70,000 people can still fight down, and Huangfu Song also received reinforcements from Xuzhou on the way.

Since the Qingzhou army withdrew to Jiyang, then if you want to return to Qingzhou, you must go through Dingtao, the distance between the two sides is about the same as Dingtao, if you march in a hurry, you can almost ambush the Qingzhou army outside Dingtao City.

also let them be ambushed once, and they learned the power of the central official army, and it was only their ambush in the official army along the way.

However, even if it was a rapid march, Huangfu Song was very cautious to send a large number of scouts, but the scouts probed all the way, and they were all safe and sound, and there was no ambush along the way.

Seeing that it is about to arrive at Dingtao, there is still no trace of the Qingzhou Army, it seems that he is too worried, the Qingzhou Army has not yet arrived in Dingtao, and it is also that the rapid march is not something that the ordinary army can execute, that can only be done with strict military discipline and long-term training.

Dong Zhuo, who played the vanguard, led his Xiliang cavalry into Dingtao City, and Huangfu Song's front army was only less than twenty miles away from Dingtao County.

The front army composed of the highest quality Central Forbidden Army naturally ran at the front, while the other central official troops, the Volunteer Army and the county soldiers from Xuzhou were left far behind, Lu Zhi, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Jian and others were all behind, and only Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song followed the front army.

Suddenly, an arrow rang out, and the fields on both sides of the road were filled with smoke and dust, and many archers and crossbowmen emerged from the ground, half of their bodies still buried in the ground.

If you look closely, you can see that there are half-man-deep trenches with a layer of wicker curtains on them, and wild flowers and weeds are inserted on the curtains as cover.

"Enemy attack, ambush." As soon as a Han army colonel shouted, he was hit by a feather arrow.

The unexpected rain of arrows baptized the rapid and efficient harvesting of human lives one by one, especially among these bows and crossbows, there are many crossbows that can fire continuously.

Huangfu Song frowned, isn't this a repeater that is unique to the Bingzhou Army? I've never heard of it, but looking at the dress of these people in ambush, it's clear that they are the Qingzhou Army, what is the situation?

How did the Qingzhou army run in front of themselves, and there was still time to dig the trenches of the Tibetans, although they were half a man deep, they had to dig for a while, right?

But there is no time for him to think about it, there are too many crossbowmen on both sides, there are more than 20,000, such a close attack, there is no need to aim carefully at all, so the frequency of archery is extremely fast, not to mention a large number of repeaters?

However, it was the most elite Central Forbidden Army who were ambushed, and they reacted correctly at the first time, with their respective units as units, shield bearers on the periphery, spearmen and crossbowmen in the center, forming a circle after circle, and pressing the enemy on both sides.

After all, the Han army had complete armor, and even if it was a rapid march, it did not dare to take off its armor, so the casualties were not as great as imagined.
