Chapter 280: Dong Zhuo is defeated
Facts have proved that Li Ru is more calm and objective than Dong Zhuo. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
After Dong Zhuo hurried down the city tower, the torrent of 200,000 troops in the eastern part of the country was already approaching, just as Li Dao and Guo Yan hurried back, Dong Zhuo didn't have time to scold them, and immediately ordered the two of them, together with the captain Zhang Ji, to lead 20,000 flying bears to charge the Kwantung soldiers, and ordered Yang Feng and other generals to lead the infantry and cavalry to cooperate with the attack.
The cavalry is less than 10,000, full of 10,000 invincible, but the formation of a large-scale cavalry offensive is very terrible, but that refers to the cavalry that runs completely, and at this time the distance between the two armies is too close, but hundreds of steps, 20,000 flying bear cavalry speed has not yet run, and the Kwantung 200,000 army collided!
Dong Zhuo originally thought that under the onslaught of 20,000 flying bear riders, the soldiers and horses of the Kwantung princes would inevitably collapse at the first touch, and the flying bear riders would inevitably directly cut through the rolling torrent, and then run back, counterattacking from behind, and scattering the Kwantung soldiers and horses.
But he miscalculated.
In particular, the Flying Bear Rider tragically collided with Bao Xin's army, and encountered one of the strongest soldiers and horses of the Kwantung princes!
Bao Xin and Bao Tao brothers are already brave, and this time he has generals transferred from Jibei to ban! Yu Banzhi soldiers are strict, well-commanded, and the military formation is tight, and the soldiers under him are almost all fearless of death, and in the face of the attacking flying bear riders, none of them retreated, and they directly collided with Dong Zhuo's war horse with weapons and flesh and blood.
Instead of piercing through the formation, the Flying Bear Rider was like a quagmire, unable to save itself, and was soon besieged by other Kwantung soldiers around it, and fell into a tragic battle.
The strength of the Kwantung army made Dong Zhuo dumbfounded!
He couldn't believe that the Kwantung group of thieves that Zhang Liao had defeated several times was so powerful that even the most elite flying bears under his command could not resist! In fact, it was only because Zhang Liao had defeated the Kwantung princes several times before that Dong Zhuo's entire army had a sense of contempt for the Kwantung princes, including Dong Zhuo himself.
But in this battle, Dong Zhuo and his Qianghu soldiers knew, and the crazy Kwantung princes were also very terrifying, just like the Yellow Turban Army that defeated him in the Central Plains back then!
But what Dong Zhuo didn't know was that when Yuan Shao and other Kwantung princes raised their troops for the first time, they just had their own thoughts and did not do their best, and they were designed by Zhang Liao several times and attacked by surprise, which led to a big defeat. This time it was different, the Kwantung princes almost transferred their most elite generals and soldiers, and at the moment they saw Zhang Liao, the later general Yuan Shu was ashamed of the snow and brazenly ordered: Whoever kills Zhang Liao, no matter which prince he belongs to, will be a general!
Then Yuan Shao and other princes added another article, whoever kills Dong Zhuo and Zhang Liao will be crowned as a general!
Even if the marquis is a pavilion marquis, even if the one worshipped will be a miscellaneous general, but for ordinary soldiers, it is already a step to the sky, and they usually dare not think of it, so they are all crazy! There will be brave men under the great reward, and that is the case.
200,000 torrents are surging, Dong Zhuo's soldiers and horses are almost defeated in a battle, Dong Zhuo's face changes greatly in the rear, and he is busy ordering the soldiers to fight and retreat, relying on the palace to fight, but the palace gate has long been burned down, and it is impossible to stop the torrent from rushing in, and even the archers on the city wall can't frantically release arrows.
From the moment the 200,000 troops in the Kanto region rushed up frantically, the torrent was surging forward, unstoppable, and the soldiers in front couldn't stop even if they wanted to!
Dong Zhuo's soldiers and horses were almost squeezed into the palace by the Kwantung soldiers and horses, and then they were crowded and retreated all the way, and the end of not retreating was to be trampled into meat paste!
At the same time, to the south of the imperial city, Sun Jian's soldiers crossed Yishui, rushed over from Kaiyang Gate, Pingcheng Gate, and Jinmen, and even went around to Guangyang Gate and Yongmen in the west of the imperial city, preparing to outflank Dong Zhuo's back road.
To the north of the imperial city, there were also soldiers from the east who rushed in from the Valley Gate and the Summer Gate.
There are ten avenues in the imperial city, all of which are more than ten zhang wide, extremely open, the Three Princes' Mansion, Buguangli, and Yongheli are all reduced to ashes, and Dong Zhuo's soldiers have no danger to defend after retreating inside, and there are melee everywhere, and there are fights everywhere.
Some Qianghu soldiers hurriedly retreated into those dilapidated palaces, but they were soon surrounded by countless soldiers and trapped in them, and some fallen bricks and tiles killed many people.
Dong Zhuo finally tasted the bitter fruit of his own burning of Luoyang, a piece of scorched earth could certainly allow the cavalry to charge, but after the cavalry lost its effect, once they were defeated and retreated, there was no basis for retreat.
Yuan Shao, Zhang Miao, Zhang Chao, Yuan Yi, Cao Cao and other princes also rushed into the ruined palace with the army, but they had long lost the trace of Zhang Liao, but instead saw Dong Zhuo and desperately pursued and killed.
Dong Zhuo's situation is very dangerous, the most elite flying bear rider under his command is in difficulty to get out, in addition to the three thousand personal guards accompanying him to protect, it is Jia Xu and Fan Chou who lead two troops and horses to escort them.
But the Kwantung princes, such as Yuan Shao, Zhang Miao, etc., did not have hundreds or thousands of guards around them, and they were all elite! With the momentum of a big victory, it is unstoppable!
Under the fierce battle, Jia Xu and Fan Chou suffered a lot of losses, and as Sun Jian's soldiers rushed in, Jia Xu and Fan Chou's soldiers and horses were quickly scattered, and the remaining hundreds of guards desperately protected Dong Zhuo's retreat.
At this time, Yuan Shao, who was chasing Dong Zhuo closely, also showed his fangs, he had a fierce general Wen Chou under his command, and there were 800 crossbowmen among the guards, and wave after wave of crossbow arrows shot Dong Zhuo's own soldiers with heavy casualties, and they were defeated and retreated.
Although Cao Cao was so poor that he didn't have crossbowmen, his subordinates recruited Li Dian and Le Jin, and after meeting the Xiahou brothers and Cao Hong, several fierce generals killed Dong Zhuo's own soldiers, like tigers and wolves.
Dong Zhuo rode a horse, and under the protection of all the soldiers, he opened his bow left and right, fired more than ten arrows in a row, and shot more than ten people, but he was out of breath and no longer had the strength to open the bow.
At this time, he was fat and fat, and he was still the fierce general who was on the battlefield back then.
"Where is Wu'er Fengxian?" Dong Zhuo saw that the situation was getting more and more dangerous, and couldn't help yelling.
"The child is here!" A voice not far away shouted loudly.
When Dong Zhuo heard Lu Bu's voice, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly looked over, but his heart sank.
I saw that under the broken pavilion between the north and south palaces hundreds of steps away, Lu Bu, who he relied on the most, was also under siege at this time, and it was difficult to get out.
After Lu Bu left the battlefield at the beginning, he wanted to find Dong Zhuo, but although he was taken off by Zhang Liao, he was burly, two heads taller than ordinary people, and wore a golden crown and fine armor, and was on the battlefield, which can be described as coquettish and attractive, just like a firefly in the night, a scarab in the field, whether it was a red rabbit horse with a majestic horse under his crotch, or a Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand, he deeply betrayed his identity and attracted countless Kwantung soldiers to surround him.
His strength is naturally not comparable to ordinary soldiers, at first he killed a lot, slashed several generals in a row, and killed the Kwantung soldiers and horses besieging him to retreat three feet, a radius of several zhang, and it was empty!
But before he could retreat, he attracted Zhang Fei, Guan Yu and Liu Bei, and the three heroes fought against Lu Bu, and Lu Bu fell into a bitter battle all of a sudden.
At this time, Zhang Liao, the culprit who caused the war between the two armies, was very comfortable.
Although the 200,000 soldiers and horses in the eastern part of the Kanto shouted to kill Zhang Liao, how many people recognized Zhang Liao?
In addition, Yang Ding, who was previously trapped by Zhang Liao and tied up in the big red robe, attracted the attention of most Kwantung soldiers, and Zhang Liao had long been silently hidden.
There is only one person, who is always staring at Zhang Liao, and that is Yuan Shu, the later general.
Zhang Liao didn't even dodge Yuan Shu's resentful gaze several times, and finally got annoyed, waved the hook and sickle to kill a counterattack, beheaded more than a dozen people in a row, and pulled the iron tire bow, directly gave Yuan Shu four or five arrows, and put Yuan Shu, who was like a mad dog, to the ground, and then took the opportunity to escape.
After Zhang Liao fled, he quickly found twenty tiger warriors who rushed to meet him. His Tiger Warrior was different from Dong Zhuo's Qianghu soldiers, and the scale was extremely small, so he would not attract the attention of the Kwantung soldiers, and the elephant dragon was not as eye-catching as the red rabbit.
And Zhang Liao did his old job again, he retreated into a side hall of the North Palace with the tiger warriors, shouted to lure a group of Kwantung soldiers, robbed them of their armor, and then this shameless guy smeared blood on his face, rushed out of the side hall, and shouted "Kill Zhang Liao" in a dignified manner, and in the strange eyes of a group of tiger soldiers, he mixed into the attack of the Kwantung soldiers.
They shouted the slogan of "Kill Zhang Liao" all the way, took the opportunity to kill many Qianghu soldiers, captured twenty war horses, beat them again, and captured a banner of Kwantung soldiers and horses, and soon merged with the Kwantung soldiers.
Zhang Liao's soldiers and horses were left behind Bi Guiyuan, in this kind of large-scale melee, he was not the main force, and there were no soldiers and horses to contain him, at this time with the most elite twenty tiger soldiers, pretending to be Kwantung soldiers, belonging to the active attacking side, in which it can be said to advance and retreat freely, like a fish in water.
If Dong Zhuo and the Kwantung princes who were fighting hard knew that this culprit was living so leisurely at this time, I am afraid that they would have vomited blood three liters in anger. (To be continued.) )
