Chapter Eighty-Five: Breaking
The moonlight tonight is so bright that you can see people nearby even if you don't have to light the lights.
Outside the barracks of the conquest army, a Yellow Turban army of about 20,000 people slowly approached to about ten miles.
On the wall, because of Yao Jie's strict order, a soldier of the conquest army was staring wide-eyed and standing straight on duty, the entire military camp was silent, and the sergeants on duty together did not talk to each other, which was also a reflection of the strict discipline of the conscription army.
As a traverser, Yao Jie paid great attention to military discipline, and under Yao Jie's strict supervision, this set of military discipline born from the children of later generations came into being.
This set of military discipline is not copied, and there are many places that are very different from the original, such as not plundering or bullying and killing the people, but this military discipline is only valid for Han people.
In other words, in the future, Yao Jie's subordinates can burn, kill and loot at will.
"Enemy attack!" One of the soldiers on duty immediately shouted that because of the bright moonlight, and the fact that the captives had erected many torches around the camp and dug many traps, the Yellow Turbans had not had time to get too close before they were discovered.
Guan Hai secretly scolded unlucky, thinking of what Zhang Liang said to him before he came, "If the night attack is discovered in advance, cancel the operation immediately!" He glanced at the conscripted military camp a few miles away, and it was obvious that he had already responded.
"Withdraw!" The 20,000 Yellow Turban soldiers immediately turned around and ran away.
Guangzong, the hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban troops that have been assembled at the gate of the city, once the night attack of Guan Hai is successful, these Yellow Turban troops will immediately attack.
Zhang Liang stood on the city wall, looking at the hazy conquest military camp in the distance, frowning, "I don't know if Guan Hai has succeeded?" ”
People are like this, they always have the idea of taking advantage of a small advantage, just like the penguin's lottery, knowing that the jackpot has nothing to do with them, but most people just can't help but be cheap, and when they want to give up, they find that they have spent a lot of money, saved more than half of their luck, and they can't go back.
"The infantry army left 10,000 to guard the camp to prevent the Yellow Turban Army from sneaking attack, and the rest are all assembled to pursue the Yellow Turban Army, Wen Guang, you go and command the cavalry, if Zhang Liang dares to go out of the city to fight a decisive battle with our army, immediately launch a surprise attack on the main force of the Yellow Turban Army!" Yao Jie quickly arranged the combat mission.
"No!" Yang Hu, who had been following Yao Jie's side, promised that there were 10,000 cavalry in the 50,000 conquest army led by Yao Jie, of course, they had not been equipped with stirrups, saddles, or horseshoes, and their riding skills were average.
Guan Hai led 20,000 Yellow Turban troops to rush towards Guangzong City, and Guan Hai, who was riding a war horse, glanced back at the camp of the conquest army in the distance, and found that the gate of the camp had been opened, and countless conscription troops were pouring out with weapons.
"Quick, run, if we let the officers and soldiers catch up, none of us will be able to run!" Guan Hai urged urgently.
After hearing Guan Hai's voice, the Yellow Turban Army ran forward desperately one by one, and many people even threw away weapons for the sake of speed, anyway, Guangzong, as the base camp of the Yellow Turban Army, was not short of weapons.
Some people may wonder, 20,000 Yellow Turban troops attacked the camp, just because they were discovered by the other party in advance, they were scared like this? Like a group of remnants defeated, but if you recall the Battle of Jiangshui, Zhang Liang commanded more than 100,000 Yellow Turban troops to attack halfway, and had to retreat after impacting tens of thousands of captives, plus the Yellow Turban Army lost two fierce generals in a row, you can imagine the fear of the Yellow Turban Army for the captive army, in the hearts of these Yellow Turban Army, hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban Army can not defeat 40,000 captive army, and the 20,000 Yellow Turban Army may not even be able to defeat 5,000 captive army, let alone 50,000.
Just as he was running wildly, Guan Hai suddenly found that he had unconsciously entered a narrow path, with small woods on both sides, there was silence in the woods, there was no insect cry, and it was gloomy from afar, without any reason, Guan Hai suddenly had palpitations, and immediately ordered: "Stop!" Stop me! ”
But how could the Yellow Turban Army, which was running wildly, stop so easily, and in a blink of an eye, more than 5,000 Yellow Turban Army had already entered the path, and the front had almost gone out.
"Hahaha, you're finally back, I've been waiting for a long time! Shoot the arrows! Zhang Fei laughed.
Guan Hai also passed through here when they went to attack the camp, but Yao Jie, in order to ensure the total annihilation of the Yellow Turban Army, strictly ordered Zhang Fei not to fight in advance, so Zhang Fei watched Guan Hai pass.
"Ahh Caught off guard, hundreds of Yellow Turban soldiers were immediately shot and fell.
"Steady, don't mess around!" Guan Hai tried his best to stabilize order, but the Yellow Turban Army, which was already in chaos, could not be stabilized so easily.
"Kill!" In the blink of an eye, 5,000 conscripts had rushed down with their ring-headed knives, killing the chaotic Yellow Turban Army with screams and screams.
The previous escape made many Yellow Turban soldiers throw away their weapons, and now in the face of 5,000 fully armed and physically energetic conscription troops, the panting Yellow Turban Army can't fight and run, and they can't run, so they can only helplessly become the military merits of the conscription army one by one.
"Die!" Guan Hai slashed the two conscripts who tried to get close to him with a knife, and glanced at the conscripts who were chasing and killing the Yellow Turban Army, Guan Hai knew that if he didn't leave, he might not be able to leave, so he decided to break through in the direction of Guangzong City under the protection of hundreds of personal soldiers.
"Stop them!" The breakthrough of hundreds of people also quickly attracted Zhang Fei's attention, and Zhang Fei immediately ordered his soldiers to stop them.
"Humph! Die! Zhang Fei rode a black horse, holding the Zhangba snake spear and rushed directly into Guan Hai's personal soldiers, a burst of blood mist floated in the air, more than a dozen Guan Hai personal soldiers fell off the horse, looking at Zhang Fei's invincible appearance that was constantly approaching him, Guan Hai really didn't have the confidence to win him, and now in this situation, even if he wins, the large army of the conquest army behind is about to arrive, and once he is dragged down, he can't go.
"Quick, stop him for me!" Guan Hai shouted desperately, fortunately, his own soldiers were very loyal, and they rushed towards Zhang Fei one by one, even if they knew that they were dead, they did not flinch, which greatly slowed down Zhang Fei's speed.
"Well, that yellow turban thief, Yanren Zhang Yide is here, dare to stay and fight with me!" Seeing that Guan Hai was about to rush out, Zhang Fei remembered to shout, the sound was like thunder, but it scared Guan Hai to run faster.
Looking at Guan Hai, who had already broken out of the encirclement and gradually drifted away, Zhang Fei was so angry that he scolded: "It's really a rat, you don't even dare to fight with me!" ”
"Kill!" Yao Jie led the large army of the conquest army to arrive, and the soldiers of the conscription army, who were already about to be unable to hold off the Yellow Turban Army, breathed a sigh of relief, after all, they only had 5,000 people, and it was difficult to drag all the 20,000 Yellow Turban Army, but now that the large army is coming, naturally there is no need to worry.
Soon the Yellow Turban Army was defeated by the 20,000 conscripted infantry commanded by Yao Jie and surrendered one after another, in this battle, except for hundreds of Yellow Turban soldiers who took advantage of the chaos to flee everywhere, the remaining nearly 20,000 Yellow Turban troops were wiped out, and Guan Hai only led dozens of personal soldiers to escape.
Zhang Liang on the city wall of Guangzong saw the fire in the distance and knew that Guan Haizhong was in ambush, so he immediately sent troops to prepare for the rescue, just when the first batch of 20,000 Yellow Turban Army had just left the city, Yang Hu led the cavalry of the conquest army to arrive, and the 10,000 cavalry easily dispersed the 20,000 Yellow Turban Army, completely cutting Zhang Liang's mind to go out to support.
