Chapter 92: The decisive battle in Zhongzhou VIII
On the official road, the left army was in doubt, and Liu Heizi, who was hiding on the hillside on the left, led more than 2,000 people to wave their weapons and rush down the hillside with a roar.
He had 3,000 men and horses, leaving hundreds of them on the hillside to shoot the official road with bows and arrows, disrupting the formation of the left army, and the rest of the people all joined the charge.
The left army was suddenly attacked, and the soldiers saw the thieves all over the mountains and rushed down with shouts and kills, not to mention whether these thieves were elite or not, just the sudden attack and the momentum of killing all over the mountains caused a great chaos in the left army.
Zuo Liangyu's face turned pale with fright, and he tightly grabbed the reins of the horse with one hand, stabilizing the frightened war horse, the war horse was strangled to hang its front hooves high, and then smashed heavily on the ground, splashing a piece of sludge.
"Don't mess around, go back!" Zuo Liangyu controlled his mount, shouted urgently, and hurriedly ordered the general: "Huchen, you lead someone to stop the thief, and the others will withdraw with me!" ”
Jin Shenghuan pulled out his sword, and immediately turned around and shouted, "Spread the flag, kill with me!" ”
There are more than 8,000 left troops, most of which are Zuo Liangyu's men and horses collected when he arrived in Xiangyang, but at least half of them are his original subordinates, and they are still capable of fighting.
Liu Heizi waved a big knife and rushed down, and instantly rushed to the left army, Jin Shenghuan gave an order, and the flag soldiers behind him unfolded his recognition of the flag, raised his head and blew a cornet, nearly a thousand elite left troops, immediately waved their knives to meet the thieves who rushed down the mountain, wanting to block Liu Heizi on the side of the road, not letting them rush down to disrupt and cut off the ranks of the left army.
At this time, the left army was stretched out like a noodle in the march, and if the thieves were allowed to rush to the official road, they would be divided and cut off, and the men and horses would not want to withdraw.
As soon as Jin Shenghuan's general flag was unfurled, the hundred households and chief flag officers of the left army, many people gathered their subordinates to organize a defensive line on the left side of the road, and the archers bent their bows and arrows one after another, aiming at the thieves who rushed down.
The arrows were intertwined, and the thieves in front of him were shot down several people one after another, but Liu Heizi was unmoved, he rushed to the front with a big knife, and shouted loudly to his subordinates, and shouted: "Kill his mother, catch Zuo Liangyu, and Lao Tzu will also pay you~"
"Kill!" The thieves rushed down with a high momentum, and shouted one after another: "Catch the turtle grandson, get the silver!" ”
"Defense!" Jin Shenghuan stood behind the two shield soldiers, and saw that the black charcoal leader had rushed down with the men and horses, and immediately waved his knife and shouted.
When the sword and shield of the left army saw the thief in front of him, he couldn't help but raise his shield to protect the vital point, and his horse was firmly steady, ready to meet the impact of the thief, while the spearman clenched his spear and turned his body into a cat, ready to stab the thief.
With a bang, the thieves holding the shield jumped up, and with the impact of inertia and the weight of their bodies, they jumped up and hit the shield with their shields, which immediately knocked out the gaps in the defense line of the left army, and the soldiers on both sides fell to the ground.
The spearmen immediately stabbed out, and the sharp spearheads pierced the armor, and the left army and the thieves fell to the ground in succession.
One of the thieves was stabbed in the throat by the left soldier, and blood shot out, and the thief covered his neck with his hands in pain and died on his back.
Liu Heizi danced wildly with his big knife, cut off the spear shaft that was stabbed, kicked the left army away with his feet, and then swept away with the knife with both hands, cutting off the head of a left army shield man, and immediately fought with a left army general.
The thieves continued to rush down from the hillside, and the left soldiers and soldiers also rushed to the left side of the official road, slashing and killing each other with Liu Heizi's men and horses, and the flesh and blood on both sides flew sideways, rising up a cloud of blood mist, and the blood flowing from the corpses that fell to the ground dyed the mud on the ground red.
Gao Yihuan hid on the side of the hill, watching the battle situation on the pass, he did not rush out with Liu Heizi.
At this time, the left army was elite, and its combat strength was obviously stronger than Liu Heizi's people, but Liu Heizi rushed down from the hillside, and his morale was unstoppable, and he temporarily fought a draw with the left army.
Gao Yihuan asked Liu Heizi to attract the attention of the left army, served as a meat shield to taunt and attract the enemy, and attracted the elite of the left army to the left.
In this way, his people can take it by surprise and enter the official road with lightning speed, first break through the weak soldiers on the road, and then flank the elite of the left army facing Liu Heizi.
At this time, the attention of the left army had been attracted by Liu Heizi, and many elite soldiers were attracted to the left to fight Liu Heizi, and the left army on the official road gradually weakened.
At this time, a trumpet sounded in the north of the official road, and the sound of killing shook the sky, Zhao Yingyuan led the main force of the thief army and began to attack the head of the left army, more than 100 cavalry, with Zhao Yingyuan directly rushed into the left army, and began to rush south along the road to kill.
"Quick! The back team changes to the front team, quit! Exit and go! Zuo Liangyu on horseback saw that Jin Shenghuan led the men and horses to establish a defensive line on the left side, and just breathed a sigh of relief, and saw that the front army was in chaos, and a thief soldier was killing from the road, and immediately shouted urgently.
At this time, the old soldiers of the left army were still calm and could still obey orders, but those newly recruited people and horses in Xiangyang had become a pot of porridge, and they were crowded and retreated, and the establishment was in chaos.
Zuo Liangyu is still very experienced in retreating and escaping, he saw that the situation was a little bad, so he hurriedly turned the horse's head, turned a deaf ear to the exclamations, wails, and roars of the thieves, and did not look at the countless figures emerging from the hillside, and even ignored the falling arrow nets, urging the horse to flee in a hurry.
Gao Yihuan saw that Liu Heizi had attracted many elites of the left army, and Zhao Yingyuan had already killed the left army on the official road, which made the left army panic and the people and horses were in chaos.
At the moment, the second brother Gao did not hesitate at all, and he was unwilling to give Zuo Jun a chance to escape.
"Shizhao, block the road, Xian Gang, and the pillar will be killed with Lao Tzu!" Gao Yihuan suddenly stood up from the dry grass, drew his knife and shouted, "Capture Zuo Liangyu alive, Lao Tzu has a heavy reward!" ”
The roar of the sea of anger instantly sounded on the hillside on the right, and the Gao family army, who had been hiding for a while, looked at the battle under the mountain, and their blood was already boiling.
When Zuo Liangyu was running away on horseback, there was another trumpet on the hillside, countless figures appeared, and the overwhelming arrows fell.
"Kill!" Exciting howls resounded through the hillside, and the Gao Jiajun, wielding broadswords and spears, rushed towards the left army, which was already completely disorganized, like a mudslide.
Zuo Liangyu saw another wave of people rushing down, and almost everyone was wearing armor, and his heart and gall were immediately broken. At this time, most of his elite soldiers were attracted to the left, and the rest of the horses either fled with him, or they were in confusion, and they could not organize elite resistance at all.
Second Brother Gao and Liu Heizi are flanked left and right, like a gate that is about to be closed, once they kill the left army on the official road, the people and horses in that gate will be blocked by them and Zhao Yingyuan, become a can, and all of them will be finished.
Zuo Liangyu couldn't help but have red eyes, gritted his teeth, roared wildly, and commanded his cronies: "Don't care about this thief army, rush out!" ”
Zuo Liangyu immediately made a decision and gave a decisive order. He saw the soldiers in the wilderness, thinking that he had encountered the main force of the army, and knew that there was no point in resisting, so he didn't even send a team of people to block the second brother's people, but decided to rush out before the second brother's people cut off the road from the lower official road.
Li Guoying and others slanted their helmets and armor, and followed Zuo Liangyu to flee southward, and many of the left soldiers and soldiers also rushed forward in fear, and the soldiers of the rear team hurriedly turned around, but at this moment, there was a roar on the hillside, and nearly 100 carts, the wheels rolled down the slope, and by inertia, the thieves on the road instantly knocked people on their backs.
Gao Yihuan's logistics team had many large vehicles, which were dragged to the hillside to hide, and now they were suddenly pushed down the hillside by the soldiers, and the vehicles blocked the road in an instant.
Wu Shizhao led nearly 1,000 men and horses, followed the vehicle and rushed out, instantly killing the left army that was hit by the vehicle, occupying the road, and blocking most of the left army in the ambush circle.
Seeing that Zuo Liangyu was about to rush out, he looked at the vehicles rushing down from the hillside, and suddenly looked shocked and roared in fear, "Fight, fight, fight with the thieves!" ”
As the second brother Gao rushed down, the left army on the official road was divided in a short time, and they couldn't take care of each other in a long line, and were harvested by the second brother Gao, Liu Heizi, and Zhao Yingyuan......
