Chapter 1773: The Battle of Shouchun (54)
Shou Chunjun desperately ran for his life, for fear that if he was slow, he would become a ghost under the knife, but these children and old people who were forcibly pulled in didn't know that the danger of leaving their backs to the enemy was actually more terrifying, but fortunately, the Xuzhou army had already responded to this kind of situation, surrendered in one fell swoop and did not kill, and solved a lot of problems, otherwise these poor people would really become unlucky people today.
These inexperienced recruits are unlucky and lucky, of course, Ji Ling, although he retreated late, but he sat down in the BMW, and soon successfully broke through and withdrew from the battlefield.
The screams of the battlefield battle behind him never stopped, the sound of the horn went straight to Xiao Han, the morale of the Xuzhou army was getting stronger and stronger, and the morale was like a rainbow, while Ji Ling and others were like lost dogs, and the defeat was like a mountain, who could really see death as home at this time?
At this time, the open jaw that finally rushed to the battlefield let out an earth-shattering roar, faintly covering all the sounds in the battlefield:
"Speed up the battlefield!"
His arrival marked the end of the battle, dancing the horns of the beast and catching up with an enemy soldier who had been fleeing but was always unwilling to surrender, a shot stabbed out, and immediately took his life, and on the other side, Zhang Liao and the wolf cavalry of Bingzhou also entered the end, or they had already entered the end of the battle, and began the pursuit of the Shouchun army early in the morning, Zhang Liao took the lead, brandishing the breaking of the sky, that is called a good kill, and now he led the wolf cavalry of Bingzhou to follow closely behind the Shouchun army, like driving sheep, Thousands of cavalrymen with high morale slaughtered behind the buttocks of the Shouchun army.
This is definitely the cavalry's favorite way of fighting, like a cat and mouse, either being played to death, or being tortured to death step by step, because once it is targeted by the cavalry, it is impossible for the Shouchun army to run away.
"Kill, ~~~~~"
The three thousand wolf cavalry roared, stabbing all the Shouchun troops who were unwilling to surrender to the ground, and the soldiers were invincible.
If Zhang Liao's ability had been dispensable in Lu Bu's army before because of the sharpness of Lu Bu, Gao Shun and even several other strong generals, then after surrendering Liu Lan, he was no longer the dispensable one, but finally waited for the day when he would fly high.
And this day he waited for a year, originally the battle of Jiujiang was the time for him to show his ambitions, but unfortunately he met Zhang Xun, and he couldn't stick to it so that he missed the best opportunity to become famous, which made Zhang Liao very regretful, after all, it was the first battle under Liu Lan's account, he liked to be able to get off to a good start, not only to prove himself, but also to prove that the wolf rider of Bingzhou was still one of the three major iron horses of the Han Dynasty.
As a result, he couldn't wait for the opportunity, and the next battle of Xuzhou still failed to perform because of the choice of strategy, but this time he finally waited.
Some people may say that compared to Zhang Xun and Cao Cao Yuan Shao's troops, now Ji Ling's army is not in good condition, and the wolf cavalry of Bingzhou has not undergone much test, but if anyone says this kind of thing, that point is a strong argument, maybe the strength of this Shouchun army is not good, but if it is faced with ten times the strength of the force, in fact, the strength is not the strength can be completely ignored, because the absolute numerical advantage can completely make up for these, and Zhang Liao did not fail, and persevered until Zhang Jaw arrived, and finally won the victory, if this battle is remembered, Naturally, it was none other than Zhang Liao and the wolf rider of Bingzhou.
Zhang Liao can not want anything else at all, but he must fight for this, this is a breath, but also a kind of proof, no matter what Liu Lan's original intention was to reorganize the troops, he did not break up and rebuild the wolf cavalry in Bingzhou, to put it bluntly, it is a trust to himself, how many people raised objections to this, but Liu Lan tried his best to override public opinion and retained the cavalry establishment of the wolf cavalry in Bingzhou.
Such a reservation seems to be really completely redundant, because there is a dragoon, and the wolf cavalry has no meaning at all, he understands this, so he will be grateful to Liu Lan, and he must use his performance to prove that Liu Lan's decision is extremely correct, only in this way will he lose his trust.
It is very difficult for the Shouchun army to escape, even if they seem to have safely escaped from the battlefield now, but don't forget that it is the wolf cavalry that is chasing them behind them, it is the cavalry, how can their two legs get rid of the pursuit of the dragoon, such a situation appears more and more, the Shouchun army, who was still excited and tearful before, celebrated that they were completely safe and collapsed in an instant, and the wolf cavalry appeared behind them.
One by one panicked like a lost dog, frightened to the heart and gall, has long been unable to distinguish the southeast and northwest, as long as there is no figure of the wolf rider in the state where is the hope of escape, just keep running, but the pursuit of the wolf rider will not let them go so easily, chase after it, such as the gangrene of the bones, do not kill them and never give up, of course, Shouchun Army also has smart people, watching the comrades who surrendered to the service did not suffer further harm after giving up resistance, their will to escape and the will to resist was completely lost, They surrendered one after another.
completely lost the suspense, and the battle came to an end, but at this time, Ji Ling, under the desperate protection of his own guards, fled all the way west, although he was embarrassed, he also escaped by luck, but now does he really want to return to Shouchun?
Ji Ling kept asking himself, escaping back to Shouchun is the safest choice now, there is no doubt about this, but after that, the Xuzhou army is coming to the city, and if you want to escape for your life at that time, can you still have such luck? Ji Ling thought about it, and always felt that now that Hui Shouchun had just escaped from one dangerous place to another more dangerous place, he was completely looking for death, and he was returning to Shouchun now, it must have been something that Zhang Jaw and Zhang Liao expected, they didn't have any precautions, and they would let themselves go back smoothly?
Don't be naïve, he is not a child who has not reached the crown, and if he escapes like this now, it will not be a good result for him in the end, but he can't think of a better place, a safe place, where else will be a safer place than Shouchun at this time, not only will he not enter the coffin of Shouchun, but he also doesn't have to worry about what ambush may appear in front of him, such a secret and safe place, he thinks about it, there is only one place, that is Liu Xun of Lujiang, at this time there may be other than him here, There is indeed no better place to take refuge, and the more important first point is that if he returns to Shouchun this time, he may still have a glimmer of life to survive, but if he escapes, there may be no second person in the world who can save his life, but Liu Xun is an exception, even if he can't protect himself, it is absolutely impossible to hand himself over to Yuan Shu to deal with.
Thinking about it, the only place I can go to now is Lujiang.
Zhang Liao and Zhang Jaw finally met, looked at each other and smiled, but the latter's smile was more grateful, and the former was self-blame, one was grateful to the other party for coming in time, and the other was guilty of self-blame, if it wasn't for his poor consideration, it would not have been possible to put Zhang Liao in danger, but at this time, because of a big victory, the contradictions that may have been induced disappeared without a trace, but made the relationship between the two go further.
In Xuzhou over the years, among Liu Lan's generals, there are really few people who can make him feel convinced, even Guan Yu, but today's Zhang Liao makes him admire, as long as he is not a fool, he must be able to understand under what circumstances he persevered until their arrival, and even almost single-handedly defeated Ji Ling.
There is a very deep relationship between Zhang Jaw and Zhang Liao, when Lu Bu arrived in Yecheng, the two had already met, and at that time I heard that Lu Bu's eight great generals were all brave and good at fighting, of course, in fact, this is more of an exaggeration, in addition to Gao Shun, other athletes are really difficult as his magic eye, but I have to say that Liu Lan's vision must be more than his own, otherwise he would not have been in the eight great generals except Gao Shun, who did not surrender, and selected a Zhang Liao to entrust him with important responsibilities in this battle, and it can be said that he became famous in this battle.
He was convinced that Zhang Liao's battle would definitely make him famous all over the world, and Zhang Jaw dared to guarantee that after all, anyone who knew a little about the situation on the battlefield knew that once this battle was lost, the situation on the entire Shouchun battlefield might be reversed, and it was his existence that turned the tide of the battle.
It can be said that he has seen too many such famous generals in this world, and if the one he can't forget the most, it is definitely Zhao Yun, because Zhao Yun played the demeanor of a famous general under his nose, completely laid the situation of the Battle of Jizhou, and turned the defeat into a victory.
This point Zhang Liao is almost the same as Zhao Yun, and more importantly, this time he also witnessed it with his own eyes, although he will definitely feel a little uncomfortable in his heart, but Zhang Jaw is not the kind of person with a small belly, people have the strength and ability, this has to be admitted, even luck is better than himself, otherwise, he can defeat Ji Ling by himself, how can the merit of this battle be his, he doesn't have that ability, because he has fought with Ji Ling twice, he knows that he can't eat Ji Ling, so he thought of Zhang Liao, If he can eat it, he can still use it, so he will report Zhang Liao's attack truthfully, and he will also ask for credit for him, which is a favor and a way to behave in the world, but more importantly, Zhang Liao is worthy of him to ask for credit for him, and his performance deeply impressed him.
The literati are light, the warriors are heavy, since ancient times, this is to be replaced by two generals, it may really be to fight each other, whose credit is great, I can't say clearly, without Zhang Jaw, what credit can Zhang Liao have? Without Zhang Liao, let alone defeating Ji Ling, maybe people would have run away long ago.
So, when Zhang Jaw said that he would ask for credit for him, it really made Zhang Liao a little excited, and he didn't know how to respond, after all, if he said the first merit, it must be Zhang Jaw in his mind, without the two confrontations between Zhang Jaw and Ji Ling, without Zhang Jaw arriving in time, it would be impossible to defeat Ji Ling, but now he wants to ask the lord to give him the first credit, and he deserves it.
Zhang Jaw and Zhang Liao humbled each other, and finally the two warriors laughed, grinding and chirping, now it is not suitable to discuss these, Ji Ling has not caught it yet, they relaxed their vigilance like this, sorry for those brothers who died in battle.
In the end, the two ended the conversation, and did not continue to dwell on these things, since both of them were pushing this credit, then the best way was to return directly and truthfully, so that the lord had a headache.
The two laughed and finished speaking, and at the same time looked in the direction of Shouchun, according to the plan, their next destination is there, and if they pursue all the way, they will definitely capture Ji Lingsheng on the way.
Upstairs in Shouchun City, the soldiers of Shouchun are all worried, they all know that Liu Lan's Xuzhou army is coming soon, and they are all thinking about how to escape now, there are not a few people who have such thoughts, and the big families in the city are also thinking about this idea.
No one understands why Shouchun became the way it is now overnight, a little incomprehensible, and even can't figure it out, after all, three years ago, they were still the largest force in the Kanto region, and no one dared to provoke them, but now any small fish and shrimp dare to come and spread wild, especially that Liu Lan, who was nothing at the beginning.
Many people know that when they were begging for Dong, Liu Lan had no rank among the princes, and the reason why he was able to join the Southern Alliance was entirely because of Gongsun Zhan, but now, they were so frightened by Liu Lan that they wanted to abandon the city and flee.
If Yuan Shu had been regretting this matter before, then now everyone from top to bottom is regretting it, and those ministers who opposed the dispatch of troops to Xuzhou back then were all imprisoned in prison because of this, and they were convicted of secretly colluding with Liu Lan, but they must all be wronged, but if they don't do this, it is impossible to stabilize people's hearts.
The current situation, Yuan Shu may be the most depressed, the people are dissatisfied, the family is also dissatisfied, from business to the bottom, from men to women, from the old to the young, they are all dissatisfied, dissatisfied with him, calling the emperor is one thing, and conniving at Liu Lan back then is also the other, but in the face of these, what can Yuan Shu do, take regret medicine?
It's impossible, so he didn't even pay attention to these people, they were all capable after the fact, why did they go at that time? Why didn't they stand up one by one at that time, now this is not right, that is not right, they all come out, it makes people angry when they see these people, whether they have the ability to do it, and they prevaricate afterwards, one by one is more expert than the other, if it weren't for the critical situation, he would have been eager to arrest these people, but then it is estimated that there are few people in the court.
Since a wave has been suppressed, this wave has to be maintained.
Yuan Shu sighed, these days are the most depressed and worried days for him, especially Ji Ling has been missing for several days, it was originally for him to turn the tide, at least to find the bad luck of the Xuzhou army, but now it seems that there may be no return.
What should happen next, if Ji Ling is also defeated, how can Shouchun still be kept? Although he had made up his mind to defend Shouchun after sending Yuan Yao away, he was really scared now.
He didn't want to die.
