On the rammed earth city wall of Chencang City

Xu Rong, who was on patrol, signaled to the saluting soldiers, he also started as a pawn at the beginning of his army, and was promoted to the captain of the first army with his own military merits step by step. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info So he has a natural affection for these soldiers at the bottom, and he can also treat the soldiers equally, and share weal and sorrow with them, these days of defending the city have tied everyone's lives tightly, seeing them, Xu Rong feels like seeing Dong Junzhong's own soldiers.

Walking up to the city, he stretched out his hand to hold the battlement, and the coldness from his hand made him feel a thrill in his head, and his brain was a little dizzy and dizzy, but now it was also swept away. He looked far away, only to see that the outside of the city was confused in the mist, the sky was slightly bright, and the scenery in the distance was completely unclear. He listened quietly, only to hear that there seemed to be some movement in the camp of the rebels outside the city, and a faint sound reached the city.

Xu Rong's face was solemn, he turned around and beckoned a young team leader on duty at the head of the city, and asked in a deep voice:

"Is there such movement in the rebel camp these days?"

The young team who was questioned was a little nervous, and he usually led people to defend during this time period, for fear that there would be something wrong, so he immediately thought about the scene of the last few days in his mind before bowing down and answering:

"At this time in the last three or four days, there has indeed been constant movement in the rebel camp outside the city, sometimes the momentum is quite loud, at first the soldiers were still a little panicked, but they found that there was no other movement after the ordinary soldiers and horses were transferred, and the villain did not know the enemy's situation, so he just asked the sons and daughters below to be on guard······"

The young team was nervous and detailed all the movements of the rebels observed in the past few days, for fear of missing any major military information, and Xu Rong was obviously not listening to the ramblings behind him, and he once again set his eyes on the rebel camp outside the city.

At this time, there was still the sound of people and horses moving, but the sound was very subtle, and it was not easy to distinguish whether it was a movement of troops and horses against the city wall. Xu Rong looked at the sun showing a little outline in the distance, he thought about it, turned around and told the young team to lead the city to guard the city, and then took a few personal soldiers to quickly walk down the city wall.

"I'm going to gather the soldiers and horses now, you immediately go and inform the guards of Chen Cang, and tell him that the enemy situation has changed, let him gather the men and horses in the city immediately, and go directly to the city wall to listen to my orders!"

"No!"

Seeing that one of his personal soldiers was ordered to ride away quickly, Xu Rong also turned his horse's head and rode his horse to gather the Han cavalry he had originally brought to aid Chen Cang, these warlike warriors were the elite under his command, and they were second only to Dong Zhuo's own Huang Zhongyi in Dong Zhuo's army, although Chen Cang was in an emergency, he had to let these warriors dismount and replace them with heavy armor spears to support the city, so he lost nearly 100 people, but now there are more than 500 horsemen, and the combat power still exists, so they are stationed in the camp in the northwest of the city that is specially cleared out for them to station. Now it's finally coming in handy.

Xu Rong, who was riding and falling with the horses on the horse, was beating wildly in his chest at the moment, but he covered it up well, and the others didn't see it. He secretly cried out in his heart:

"The rebels are on the run!"

···

Just when Xu Rong reorganized his troops and horses and sent scouts out of the city, the camp of the Liangzhou coalition army was empty, and only a mess remained.

After Wang Guo and Han Sui decided to withdraw their troops, they had secretly ordered all soldiers and horses to prepare their bags, pack their belongings and prepare to withdraw their troops a few days in advance, and the movement of troops and horses in the past few days was just to confuse the Han army in Chencang City.

Taking advantage of the fact that the sky was just bright and the fog had not dispersed, the Liangzhou coalition army, which had already hurriedly eaten dry food and reorganized its men and horses, immediately withdrew from the camp outside Chencang City. Led by Wang Fan and Han Chang, the Chinese army was led by Wang Guo and Han Sui, and the team behind was very long, and there were constantly scattered people stationed along the way to join the rear team. Looking at the coalition soldiers and horses who were in a hurry and demoralized, and the kingdom walking in the ranks with a gloomy face, he couldn't help but think of the majesty and pride when he personally led the army to sweep Sanfu last year, but he didn't expect that in just a few months, the situation had been reversed, and the Han army, which had been closed without a fight, had become a beast with teeth and claws, and he had become a panicked lost dog.

Just when the kingdom was secretly sad, he received an urgent military report from the former army Wang Fan: Yongxian was captured by the Han army last night.

This is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, everything the kingdom has done since the beginning of spring is to be able to confuse the Han army on the front line of Meiyang and Huaili, so as to ensure the safety of their retreat to Longyou Road. Now that the Han army has sent troops to capture Yongxian, it means that the Han army has seen the Liangzhou coalition army's inertia and is ready to counterattack in a big way.

Although he had secretly communicated with Han Sui in private, and was ready to be pursued by the Han army, when the matter came, the kingdom, which had been frustrated one after another, found that he no longer had the confidence he once had, he felt that everything he had done before was full of mistakes and omissions, and he was helpless as he fell deeper and deeper, just like a livestock in the desert that was swept into quicksand, watching himself be swallowed up little by little, but he could only let out one or two weak wails.

The kingdom is not alone in this sense of crisis, Yan Xing, who is in the front army, is hurrying west with his own group of people at this time. The eyelid of his right eye has been beating non-stop since the withdrawal of the army, although he does not believe in evil, but when he heard that Yongxian County was captured in advance, Yan Xing's heart suddenly "suddenly" accelerated, the Han army captured Yongxian County at the moment of withdrawal, and the average person may not be aware of the danger, but he personally invaded Sanfu, and also drew a simple military map along the way, of course he knew what the fall of Yongxian meant to the Liangzhou coalition army that was bent on returning to the west.

Therefore, when the front army began to retreat in a hurry along the banks of the Huangshui River, Yan Xing involuntarily looked back at the rear many times, only to see that everywhere in sight was a continuous retreat. He was a little worried, if the Han army, which had already occupied Yongxian, attacked again, the Liangzhou coalition army, which had retreated in a hurry and was sleepy, was afraid that it would immediately be difficult to take care of and collapse and scatter.

The situation is indeed developing in the direction that Yan Xing fears.

As the sun gradually rose, from the time to the hour, Yan Xing estimated that the army had retreated for more than two hours, although the soldiers had been running for a long time, but they did not dare to shout tired, even if the old and weak of the rear team were gritting their teeth and persevering, Wang Fan of the front army was also constantly urging the soldiers to speed up their advance, and now they have not escaped the danger of the Han army, and no one dared to stay and rest for a while.

Just as everyone was hurrying away, suddenly there was a desolate horn sound from behind, and everyone became nervous for a moment. Yan Xing's face was solemn, he turned his head to look in the southeast direction, and the people and horses along the way were already in a commotion, and everyone could hear it, this was the clarion call for the rear army to receive the enemy.

The pursuers of the Han army are coming!

Huangfu Jianshou knocked over a Liangzhou soldier who fled in a hurry from behind, the horse's hooves trampled on the body of the deserter, making a palpitating sound of broken bones, his horse did not slow, and rushed forward to hit another fleeing Liangzhou soldier, and with a knife to hack a Liangzhou soldier who tried to turn around and resist, watching the Han cavalry around him smash into the retreating rebel rear, raising the ring knife full of blood, he laughed loudly, This kind of battlefield filled with the smell of blood and the sound of fighting is the destination of his heart, and the anger that has been suppressed recently has finally been released on the rebels.

It turned out that after capturing Yongxian, Huangfu Song, who had already expected that the rebels would retreat, sent elite cavalry scouts to spy on the movements of the rebels. Sure enough, the scouts of the Han army soon discovered the traces of the hasty retreat of the Liangzhou rebels in the brigade. So Huangfu Song, who got this information, immediately made a decision, and immediately gathered all the 5,000 cavalry of the whole army and handed it over to the eldest son, Huangfu Jianshou, to lead, and quickly dispatched to pursue the retreating rebels.

At this time, Huangfu Jianshou looked around, and the rear army of the panicked Liangzhou rebels was scattered by the Han cavalry, and there were no Liangzhou rebels around him.
