Chapter 468: Mental War (Part II)
Xu Yu walked past the war horse, and looked at the back of the black smoke with a pale face, "That person is here!" ”
"Gongsun is here!" Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said it loudly, in fact, he had made arrangements to prevent a possible sneak attack on the rear camp earlier, but he was stubbornly dragged by Cao Cao in front of him, and temporarily forgot about the rear.
The surrounding generals and strategists looked at each other, but they didn't dare to speak at this time, Yuan Shao rode on horseback, clenched the reins tightly, and he turned his head to look at Tucheng again, his temples were undulating and bulging, and his voice sank word by word.
"Keep attacking!" A moment later, someone came with reinforcements.
Yuan army back camp, the flames are still burning, the iron hooves are rolling forward, nearly 10,000 Youyan foot soldiers shouted and charged, the huge fire shines on a red cloak, the figure of the beast-faced head swallowing armor rushed into the fire on horseback, avoiding the front of the stabbing gun, leading the soldiers behind more than a thousand and Zhou iron cavalry to kill the weak place on the other side, one after another surging figures are in front of the cavalry like ox plows, rolling out left and right, Yuan soldiers who had no time to dodge were knocked down by the horse body, and then crushed by the iron hooves, leaving a shocking long mark to extend forward.
In a crowd of people who were fighting and running, Su You tried his best to organize the soldiers to resist, "Hold it for me, reinforcements will come soon!" Several soldiers who were killed turned around and fled, and were chopped to the ground by him a few times, but at this time, most of the entire camp was caught in flames, and the sudden attack and this burning back camp made a large number of soldiers fall into panic, even though Su You tried his best to save the decline, but most of the people were either chaotic and fighting with the enemy, or scattered and fled, and there were more people with panic mixed in the middle to cause more chaos.
When Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang came over with reinforcements, the opponent's soldiers and horses had already driven straight into almost the entire rear camp, Su You saw the two of them coming over with troops from a distance, and shouted loudly: "Be careful-" Over there, the two brothers rushed over, and they saw Lu Bu at the front of the torrent, like a burning flame spreading.
The faces of the two of them turned snow-white, hurriedly stopped the reins, and waved their hands to let the three thousand soldiers .....and horses they brought to kill first, at the same time, the cavalry on the opposite side also killed the past, and violently collided together, the war horse hit the body, knives, spears, spears, and weapons, and the sound became one, Lu Kuang waved a big spear, and swept off the horse of a cavalry who rushed on the opposite side, not far away, brother Lu Xiang brought a blood line on the enemy with a big knife.
Lu Bu rushed through the crowd on his horse, and the halberd burst out with unimaginable speed and power in his hands, often several Yuan soldiers were not close to it, they were beaten away by the extremely long halberd, and the figure that was cut down with a knife was slashed, and the arm was directly twisted off by the dancing halberd, and half of the other person's body was cut off, and the galloping figure of the horse crossed them, and his eyes locked on the two Yuan generals in front of him.
"Brother, Lu Bu is here!"
"Kill!"
In the resolute shout, Lu Kuang rushed over with a big gun and a horse, and fought hard to catch up with Lu Bu, who was killing in front of him. On the side, Lu Xiang also clamped the belly of the horse, carrying a knife and several guards around him to rush towards the terrifying figure of the prestige.
The horse's hooves galloped, spreading through the siege, as Lu Bu, who lived again, he had never left behind his bravery in his life, and when he saw the second general of Yuan Ying coming towards him, he sneered at the corner of his mouth, and then cracked into a huge voice.
"Wait...... Let's go together! ”
The halberd smashed down, and a loud cry pressed on the spear, and the moment he splashed the spark, he waved sideways with his backhand, and Lu Xiang hurriedly closed his knife to block, and with a bang, his whole person moved sideways from the horse, fell heavily to the ground, and rolled a few times before stopping. Lu Kuang suddenly said, "Ah! With a roar of rage, his eyebrows were full of calm breath, he clenched the handle of the gun, and stared at Lu Bu opposite.
In the next second, the horse turned around and ran, scooped up the brothers who were getting up on the ground, and fled with the embarrassed soldiers of the Chinese army, Lu Bu had no interest in chasing them at all, and turned his head to look at Su You over there with a halberd, the latter originally saw the two people fleeing, and trembled with anger, but when he met Lu Bu's line of sight, he hurriedly took people to shrink the formation.
Around, people shouted and wailed, and the horses were stabbed by spears in the firelight, or the entire formation was scattered by the other side, chasing and setting fire everywhere......
**************
Tucheng, the fierce battle lasted almost a day, blood and the sound of shouting and killing, constantly sounded on the city's head, the battering ram bombarded the city gate, the Cao pawns behind the gate gritted their teeth and pushed one after another, every time they hit, the dust fell on their heads, the siege outside continued, the arrows lit the flames and nailed the city, burning all the nailed objects and human bodies, a howling soldier climbed the city wall, and then stood up and pushed and waved the knife with the shield opposite.
Zhang Liao was tired and almost couldn't stand steadily, he had many injuries on his body, and he was also hit by an arrow in the shoulder, and he was almost besieged by dozens of Yuan soldiers who stood at the head of the city, but fortunately, Xu Chu's reinforcements arrived to kill the other party and force him down. Subsequently, he counted the number of people under his command, and there were only more than 1,200 people, and he didn't know if he could hold on to the next offensive.
"It's a long day...... he felt for the first time.
While he was thinking, a soldier sitting nearby suddenly stood up desperately, ran to the side of the wall, pointed to the sky, and squeezed out a hoarse voice: "Look, general, it's black smoke!" Rising from Yuan Shaojun—"
Zhang Liao tried hard to open his eyes, his whole body was difficult to move, he still tried his strength to support his body with a knife, looked up at the outside of the city wall, the black smoke rushed into the dusk light, like a black dragon was rolling up the clouds, and at this time, the city wall also sounded loudly, and in the fighting, someone shouted excitedly: "Yuan Shao's military camp is on fire!" "Reinforcements are coming! They are raiding Yuan Shao's military village! ”
The excited shouts were passed through the city, and Xiahoudun stabbed a gun into the abdomen of a Yuan military captain, and after pushing the other party off the city wall, his voice shouted: "Reinforcements have arrived!" Push Yuan Shao's people down—"
The news that spread violently made the originally low morale suddenly explode, and the excited Cao soldiers shouted, gathered again to drive back the Yuan soldiers who stood at the head of the city, and regained the originally lost battle line again.
The message reached the city, Cao Cao stood on the school field and looked at the black smoke that had faded into the sky, his body was full of dust, hair, beard, and his whole face looked much haggard, I don't know which cheer came, Cao Cao let out a long breath, and his steps were a little vain and backwards, and then sat back.
"Gongsun Zhi finally has news....." He whispered, never so tired as he was today.
Xun You stood beside him and bowed to him wordlessly.
……
Outside the city, the sound of Mingjin withdrawing his troops was heard not long after.
***************************
The sunset was as bloody as blood, the red glow hung in the western clouds, a large number of corpses in the rear camp of the Yuan army were scattered, the surrounding blood was permeated, the charred tents, the granaries were still burning with fire, the charred corpses were curled on the ground waiting to converge, and the crows stood on the branches and cried, showing a mess of ruin.
When Yuan Shao led his troops here, the remaining soldiers were still fetching water to extinguish the fire, and there were traces of burning everywhere, he walked across the blood-stained ground, came to the collapsed tent, and looked at the gray-faced soldiers, their faces were gloomy and about to drip water.
"Where's Suyou?"
A hoarse voice filled with anger asked.
