Chapter 188: Losses of the Parties

Ye Chen fought hard, but it was difficult to break through, so he gathered the army a little, was not so anxious, and minimized casualties.

"Report, lord, there are yellow turban reinforcements in the rear, about 10,000." A guard battalion came to Ye Chen's side and whispered.

When Ye Chen heard this, he chuckled in his heart, knowing that it was bad, once ten thousand enemies joined, then they would definitely suffer heavy losses.

"Brothers, enemy reinforcements are coming, follow me to kill them." Ye Chen shouted.

Unlike other armies, the guard battalion will not be demoralized because of the enemy's reinforcements, let alone collapse, so Ye Chen shouted and asked all the guard battalions to fight hard to kill the enemy.

Sure enough, Ye Chen shouted, knowing that the situation was urgent, everyone tried to cheer up, and rushed towards the yellow scarf desperately.

The Yellow Turban also heard the news of the arrival of reinforcements, and was immediately shocked and morale soared, but in a blink of an eye, they were blinded by the escort battalion, and they suddenly became crazy, and the Yellow Turban had a feeling that he couldn't stop it.

"Block it for me, you can't let them rush out, block it." Zhang Bao saw that the guard battalion was crazy, and hurriedly mobilized men and horses to plug the gap, otherwise the guard battalion would rush out.

Knowing the danger, the escort battalion rushed to kill, and although they killed many enemies, their own casualties continued to increase. The enemy's reinforcements are about to arrive, and it will be even more difficult if they do not break through at this time.

"General Ye, I'll help you later." Suddenly, there was a shout from behind the yellow scarf.

Reinforcements? There were reinforcements here, which made Ye Chen very surprised, but it was always a good thing to have reinforcements.

"Cone formation, assault." There were reinforcements, and Ye Chen immediately took advantage of this opportunity to kill them.

He formed a powerful assault force with Tai Shi Ci and killed outside, and the rear of the Yellow Turban was suddenly surrendered, and the formation was in chaos, and the escort battalion took the opportunity to start an assault.

The chaotic Yellow Turbans began to be unable to stop the attack of the escort battalion and began to retreat.

"Withdraw!" Guan Yu saw that Ye Chen and the others had opened the passage and immediately retreated.

"Captain Wang, Captain Liu, why are you, thank you for saving me." When Ye Chen broke out, he was quite surprised to see that the two lieutenants Wang and Liu who rescued them from the yellow scarf that day were the rescuers.

"General Ye has seen the outside, and I relied on General Ye's life-saving grace before, if it is just to repay the favor." Captain Liu said.

"Okay, let's not talk about anything else, it's still too dangerous here, you retreat first, and we'll block the Yellow Turban pursuers for you first." Although they broke through, the Yellow Turban still didn't give up, and was still trying to hunt down Ye Chen and them.

However, Ye Chen, who had already broken through, would be afraid of them, let them talk about it, don't want to surround them, but the people led by Wang Liu's two captains are infantry after all, and there are not many of them, so they must help them block the pursuers, otherwise they may not be able to escape.

Ye Chen commanded the escort battalion to first use bows and arrows to fire several rounds of salvos at the Yellow Turbans, and after a few rounds, a large number of Yellow Turbans were killed, so that they did not dare to chase them again. On the way, Ye Chen learned that the two lieutenants Wang Liu did not go to battle because of the excessive loss of troops before and their dissatisfaction with Dong Zhuo.

Although Dong Zhuo was brutal, he didn't dare to push too hard at this time, so he gave an order to let them rest in the barracks and let them stay in the barracks.

So the two of them stayed in the barracks with the remnants, and when the Han army was defeated, they knew that if they stayed in the barracks, when the Yellow Turban came back, they would still not be able to escape, so they found a place to hide, and when they saw Ye Chen being surrounded, they led the remnants to come to the rescue.

Ye Chen and the others broke out, and Zhang Jiao at the head of the city shook his head helplessly, it was a pity for him that he couldn't leave this army. Zhang Jiao was not energetic, and when he watched the escort battalion leave, he didn't pay any more attention, went down to the city, and went to rest.

As for Zhang Bao, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood, he had 28,000 people, and Ye Chen killed more than 10,000 people, but in the end he couldn't leave them behind, and the 10,000 yellow scarves that came to support him from the rear could be reached, and he ran in vain.

When Zhang Bao tried to catch up, several rounds of arrows rained down from the guard battalion, which made him suffer heavy losses, and he was almost hit by arrows, knowing that once the cavalry broke out, it was impossible to re-encircle them, so he had to stop chasing, he let 10,000 yellow turbans return to Guangzong to defend, and he took the rest of the men and horses to meet Zhang Liang.

At this time, Zhang Liang was very happy, and there were corpses of the Han army everywhere all the way, and the Han army only cared about running, and everyone only hated the lack of two legs.

"Lord, we must stop the Yellow Turban from continuing to chase and kill, otherwise our Xiliang soldiers will also suffer a lot of losses." Li Ru said to Dong Zhuo who was fleeing.

"Okay, order Niu Fu and Li Ji to gather their men and horses and stop the Yellow Turban." Dong Zhuo said

Dong Zhuo was also very helpless, his soldiers and horses were coerced by the Han army, which made it a little difficult for them to retract, so they could only run with the Han army.

However, now that the battle line has been lengthened, the Han army and the Yellow Turbans have been dispersed, so it is already possible to gather some of the men.

Several generals under Dong Zhuo began to gather the army, and soon gathered thousands of people, and it was enough to have a few thousand people to block the Yellow Turban, and as long as they could block it for a while and let them slow down, there would be more troops to support them immediately.

Soon, Dong Zhuo's army blocked the Yellow Turban, Zhang Liang led people to launch several fierce attacks, but they were all given by the Xiliang soldiers, the Xiliang soldiers are different from the imperial army, their morale is still there, and their combat power is still there, once they are organized, then the combat power is much higher than that of the Yellow Turban.

After the Yellow Turbans could not continue to pursue, the fleeing Han army and Dong Zhuo's army could finally breathe a sigh of relief, and at this time, more Dong Zhuo's army was gathered and joined the team that blocked the Yellow Turban.

Dong Zhuo's troops were organized more and more, and Zhang Liang launched fierce attacks again and again, trying to re-defeat this Dong Zhuo army like he had defeated the Han army, but these Dong Zhuo troops fought on the border all year round, and their will to fight was very strong, and they would not collapse easily, plus their morale was much higher than that of the Han army.

Several attacks were fruitless, both sides lost a lot of people, and then Zhang Bao came to help, and the two launched several attacks, but they were finally blocked, looking at Dong Zhuo's more and more people, the two knew that it was impossible to defeat them, so they chose to retreat.

In this battle, the Han army suffered heavy losses, at least more than half of them were killed, countless weapons and baggage were discarded, and Dong Zhuo also lost thousands of men and horses.

In the end, although the Han army was reorganized, it had no combat effectiveness, and if such an army was sent to the battlefield again, the enemy could easily defeat them with a single attack of a few thousand men.

Ye Chen's losses were also very large, and when they arrived at a safe place, they counted more than 700 people killed in the battle, and hundreds of people were injured, at this time, there were more than 6,000 people left in the guard camp around Ye Chen, which could be described as a heavy loss.

However, if it weren't for Ye Chen's sneak attack on the Yellow Turban from behind and leaving a Yellow Turban behind, I'm afraid Dong Zhuo and they wouldn't have had the opportunity to organize troops to block it, and the losses would be even greater at that time.
