As soon as Yang Ding thought of the victory scene after the soldiers sent to Baibo Valley, he was furious, leaving only one or two thousand old and weak remnants to defend the city, lighting up 30,000 elite soldiers, and hurrying towards the direction of Baibo Valley. Yang Ding wanted to get the results of the battle, he was afraid that Jin Liang would be captured by Li Dao and Hu Chuquan, so he urged his corporal to speed up the march, and there were only 10,000 cavalry in the 30,000 horses under his command, and the remaining 20,000 were infantry, he thought the infantry was walking slowly, so he asked the cavalry to whip those foot soldiers with horse whips, forcing those foot soldiers to catch up with the pace of the cavalry. The infantrymen were full of resentment, but they were afraid of the horsemen's whips and sabers.

A day later, passing through Anyi City, Yang Ding watched from afar that there was no movement in Anyi City, and couldn't help but laugh loudly: "Zhu Jun's old man is really a gutsless rat, and when he saw my 30,000 army crossing the border, he didn't even dare to put a fart!" ”

After another day, when they arrived at the territory of Wenxi County, nearly 10,000 foot soldiers of the Central Army rushed out of Wenxi County, and after a little contact with Yang Dingjun, they saw that they were invincible, and quickly withdrew to the city of Wenxi County, holding on to wait for reinforcements.

Yang Ding waved his horsewhip, pointed at Wenxi County, and laughed: "This is what Jin Liang's more than 10,000 ransacked Wenxi County County and was punished by Jin Liang to do what Lao Shizi's pro-people activities. It's really a rabble. No wonder they ransacked Wenxi County regardless of the overall situation! Everyone said how powerful Jin Liang's Central Army was. In my opinion, it should be those who were defeated by the Central Army even more waste! ”

As soon as I passed Wenxi County, I saw a cavalry team rushing in front, about 200 people, all dressed as Dong Zhuo's own army Flying Bear Army, under the banner of protecting the Huns Zhonglang General Li Dao, the leader of the general was eight feet long, strong and burly. With a round face and round eyes, a white face and a warm smile, he shouted in his mouth: "I am the commander Li Yue is under the command of General Li Dao, the commander of the Hun Zhonglang General, and I am specially ordered by my general to welcome General Yang's army to Baibo Valley!" ”

Yang Ding laughed and said: "General Li Dao is bothered, then there is Captain Lao Li, please lead the way ahead!" ”

That Li Yue led the two hundred flying bear army to lead the way in front, and Yang Ding's overseer army followed.

More than two hours later, Li Yue led Yang Ding's army into a valley. Li Yue pointed to this valley about three or four miles long and said to Yang Ding: "General, go through this valley. After walking more than ten miles, it is the White Wave Valley! ”

Yang Dinglai had seen the map of this area before, so he frowned tightly and asked, "I remember that the official road from Wenxi County to Baibo Valley does not pass through here!" ”

That Li Yue said unhurriedly: "General Yang, you are not a person, I only know that walking this valley can save half a day of time than the official road, and now the military situation is like fire, if you can reach Baibo Valley early for a while, you can get more results!" ”

Yang Ding nodded violently, he agreed with this Li Yue's words, he originally wanted to arrive early, so that his 30,000 horses could make more contributions, and even be able to make the merit of capturing Lu Bu, but he looked at the overgrown weeds in the valley and the lush forests on both sides of the valley, so he asked with some worry: "The grass and trees in this valley cover the sky and the sun, lest the Jinliang Central Army ambush here!" ”

That Li Yue smiled indifferently and said: "General Yang, don't worry, we are from Baibo Valley to Wenxi to greet the general from this valley, if the general is not at ease, our two hundred flying bear army is willing to be the general's scout team and clear the roadblock for the general!" ”

Yang Ding looked back at his 30,000 horses, all of them were under his eager and hurried march, each of them was tired and out of breath, and said to Li Yue: "Then there is Captain Lao Li!" ”

That Li Yue took two hundred flying bear troops to search urgently in front, searched more than two miles, and turned around to signal that there was nothing abnormal. Yang Ding was overjoyed, and hurriedly let his 30,000 horses quickly keep up with the Flying Bear Army.

Yang Ding's 30,000 horses all entered the valley, Yang Ding heard a loud bird cry suddenly sounded on the mountain peak on the side of the valley, hearing this bird cry, the two hundred flying bear army led by Li Yue waved their horse whips, whipped them on the horse's back, and urged the war horses under the crotch to quickly rush out of the valley.

Yang Ding was shocked when he saw the abnormal behavior of Li Yue's two hundred Flying Bear Army, and hurriedly turned around and asked his deputy general Yang Wei: "Where are those Flying Bear sergeants who came to deliver the letter?" ”

Yang Wei pointed to the direction in which Li Yue ran: "Oh, they fled with Li Yue, it's strange, after the bird call, they ran forward like reincarnation!" ”

Yang Ding's face turned pale, and he screamed in panic: "I fell for Jin Liang's trick, there is an ambush!" Evacuate! ”

Yang Ding's military order to retreat, the cavalry in front of it quickly retreated, the infantry behind was forced by Yang Ding's military order to hurriedly follow behind the cavalry did not dare to lag behind half a step, Yang Ding's military order to retreat has not yet reached these infantry formations, these infantry are still running forward, and the cavalry of the front army has retreated, the front army and the rear army collided together, and suddenly blocked in the narrow valley, a big chaos.

As soon as Yang Ding's words fell, he heard a clear voice coming from the hillside on the side of the valley: "Yang Ding, I only understand now, it's too late, release the arrow!" ”

On the slopes on both sides of the valley, under the pines and cypresses, 4,000 crossbowmen of the Central Army stood out, stretching their bows and arrows, and shooting down. At the same time, 4,000 central saber and shield soldiers erected wooden shields to protect the crossbowmen from returning the arrows below and injuring the crossbowmen. Another 4,000 pikemen of the Central Army stopped in front of the sword and shield soldiers, and once a Xiliang soldier climbed up, they poked them with spears.

Yang Ding turned the horse's head and wanted to flee in the direction of return, but he heard a few loud sounds of landslides and ground cracks, and rolled down a few large stones from the hillside, firmly blocking the road coming, Yang Ding and the cavalry under Yang Ding's command quickly turned the horse's head again and rushed towards the direction where Li Yue had fled.

There are no big rocks blocking the way in this direction, as long as you rush out of this valley mouth, there is a large open and flat wilderness, and Yang Ding's 10,000 cavalry can be deployed. Wait for Yang Ding to arrive at the mouth of the valley. However, it was found that 4,000 cavalry of the Central Army were blocking the valley mouth.

The valley is narrow. The valley mouth here has been specially modified by the central army, even narrower, each time rushing out of a few cavalry, and because every Xiliang soldier wants to escape from this two-sided ambush of the valley, they rushed to the valley mouth, you don't let me, I don't let you, crowded with each other. Some of the tyrannical Xiliang cavalry simply swung their knives and slashed at their comrades, and the Xiliang cavalry was in chaos, and the Xiliang cavalry who rushed out of the valley mouth had no time to deal with the head-on blow of the central cavalry. As soon as a Xiliang cavalry came out of the valley, several cavalry of the Central Army rode over, shot a few arrows, and shot the Xiliang cavalry off their horses, and one of the cavalrymen of the Central Army took out a horse cover from behind, threw it over, and captured the Xiliang war horse.

Yang Ding sadly found that his 10,000 cavalry was simply sent to the Jinliang Central Army.

There are a number of Xiliang soldiers who are more courageous. Rushed through the encirclement of several central cavalry, trying to cover more Xiliang cavalry rushing out of the valley. was killed by Dian Wei, Pan Feng and others.

Yang Ding rode out of the valley mouth, and when he met the guy who called himself Li Yue, Yang Ding was embarrassed and indignant, waved the dragon tooth knife, slashed at the man, and shouted: "Who are you?!" ”

The man swung out a knife to block Yang Ding's dragon tooth knife, and at the same time laughed and said, "I am Wei Yue, the commander of the brigadier under General Jin Liang!" Yang Dingpifu, in my family's master's clever plan, don't hurry up and catch it! ”

Yang Ding said angrily: "If you want me to surrender to the Jin Liang thief, first ask me if I agree with this knife?!" As he spoke, he continued to wave the dragon tooth knife in his hand and slashed towards Wei Yue, one knife was as fast as a knife, one knife was as ruthless as a knife, the dragon tooth knife was full of black gas, and there was a terrible sound of breaking the air.

Wei Yue was captured by the strangeness of the dragon tooth knife, at first he was in a hurry, tired to deal with, and then remembered the scene when Pan Feng fought Li Dao, he began to clear his heart, knew how to deal with the dragon tooth knife, held his breath and concentrated, and concentrated on swinging his own knife, attacking instead of defending, it was also a knife as fast as a knife, a knife was as ruthless as a knife, and he put his life and death out of the way, and he must cut Yang Ding off the horse.

Wei Yue was so ruthless, Yang Ding began to be passive, he thought he was a famous general under Dong Zhuo, and he didn't want to die in this unknown general, the two horses staggered for more than a dozen rounds, and he wanted to turn his horse and escape. Yang Ding's horse is a descendant of the Dawan horse in the Western Regions, and Wei Yue's horse is a Hequ horse, when Yang Ding turned the horse to escape, Wei Yue couldn't catch up, and Yang Ding was about to escape from the encirclement of the Central Army.

There was a loud bang, the dragon tooth knife in Yang Ding's hand was smashed into the dust by the sudden mountain opening axe, Yang Ding's soul was rising, and he looked at it, a general was carrying a huge mountain opening axe, across in front of him, only to see that the general was nine feet tall, with a waist of twelve girths, and his lips were very large and long, like sausages, his eyes were big and wide, like phoenix eyes, and his appearance was very strange, so he screamed: "Who are you?!" ”

The general said angrily: "I am the peerless general Pan Feng under the command of General Jin Liang, Yang Dingpifu, don't hurry up and get off the horse and surrender!" ”

Yang Ding also wanted to turn his horse and escape, but the retreat route had been blocked by Wei Yue, and there were also soldiers of the Central Army on the left and right, who were in a panic. Pan Feng raised the big axe and patted it gently. smashed Yang Ding off the horse. The officers and soldiers of the Central Army on the left and right galloped over and tied Yang Ding firmly.

Wei Yue looked at Pan Feng and Pan Wushuang, who looked strange, and there was infinite envy and jealousy in his heart, this guy's luck is really good. Dong Zhuo's two generals, Li Dao and Yang Ding. was captured by him, this kind of shit luck is still woody, and it also makes my old Wei a little bit wet. After capturing Yang Ding. Dian Wei, Wei Yue and other cavalry generals of the Central Army coerced Yang Ding to recruit those Western Liang cavalry.

Those Xiliang cavalry originally wanted to resist stubbornly. How could it be that the valley is narrow, and the power of the cavalry cannot be exerted at all, besides, Yang Ding has been captured, the general trend has been decided, and the situation is stronger than people, except for a few Dong Zhuo's iron fans. Most of the Western Liang cavalry did not want to die in vain, so they all rolled their saddles and fell off their horses. Discarded his weapons, lay on his stomach, and accepted the reorganization of the Central Army.

The Xiliang infantry in the valley, as soon as they were ambushed, they couldn't see how many central troops were ambushed on the slopes on both sides, because the officers and soldiers of the central army were wearing grass rings, and the armor and battle robes on their bodies were all grass green, which was mixed with the pine and cypress all over the mountain, making people feel that there were enemy troops all over the mountain, especially after Xu Huang's voice, more than 10,000 central soldiers shouted in unison: "They are all Han people, why kill each other!" Disarm and don't kill, surrender is rewarded! Return to the center, glory for generations! This loud shout circled in the valley, and the echo strengthened the momentum of these shouts, making the Xiliang soldiers below feel that the Central Army had used forty or fifty thousand men to ambush them.

Just ambushed. Those Xiliang infantry trembled. Some people fled in the direction they came and went. said that they wanted to retreat, and some people rushed in the direction of going, saying that the way had been blocked and they wanted to fight a bloody way to escape, because Yang Ding's command was not effective, and these Xiliang infantry became more and more chaotic.

Under the command of officers at all levels, the archers in these Xiliang infantry slowly gathered together, stretched out their bows and arrows, and fought back. How could they stand at the bottom of the valley and shoot at the high hillside, but they are always blocked by the pine and cypress on the hillside, or by the wooden shield in the hands of the sword and shield soldiers in front of the archers of the Central Army, which poses no threat to the archers of the Central Army at all, but they themselves are killed and wounded.

There are only more than 3,000 archers among the 20,000 infantry under Yang Ding's command, and these archers are not wearing heavy armor because they have to carry a bow and a quiver, but only leather armor. After a few rounds of arrow rain, no one of the Xiliang archers dared to stand there anymore. They all learned from those soldiers, lying on the ground and pretending to be dead.

Lacking the air support of the archers, the Xiliang infantry who were still loyal to Dong Zhuo had to climb the hillside and catch up with the infantry of the Central Army, how could they be in the past few days, they were driven by Yang Ding to march in a hurry, and their physical strength had already been exhausted, and they didn't wait for halfway up the mountain to be soft and weak, and they couldn't even hold their weapons steadily, at this moment, many big stones and small stones rolled down the hillside, and rushed down to these Xiliang soldiers who climbed to the top of the mountain, and killed one or two thousand people on the spot.

A small number of Xiliang soldiers who climbed up and still had the strength to fight, and were lucky enough to avoid the momentum rolling down the mountain, were encountering the spearmen of the Central Army who were eyeing the tiger, those spearmen first pulled out a few javelins from behind, and those javelins were hard jujube wood poles with sharp iron spear heads, all of which were only four feet long, relying on the amazing strength of these spearmen to throw them out, less penetrating the armor of a Xiliang soldier, and more penetrating several Xiliang soldiers crowded in front and back, just like stringing a few frogs with an iron drill.

Jin Liang realized that "three knives are not as good as one arrow, and three arrows are not as good as one gun", so in the system of the Central Army, he reduced the number of sword and shield soldiers, expanded the number of spearmen, and let each spearman carry two javelins on his back.

Jin Liang remembered that at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, only the corps of Xiliang Ma Chao could use javelins as weapons, and legend has it that one of them failed in the Great War of the Three Heroes of Rome and retreated to the east and retreated to Xiliang, which affected the combat methods of Xiliang Ma Chao and others. Jin Liang adopted the javelin as a weapon, mainly considering that the javelin has three advantages compared with the bow and crossbow, one is due to its own heavy weight, although the muzzle velocity is slow, but when thrown at close range, the accuracy and power should not be underestimated. In particular, the psychological shock caused to the enemy is great; Second, because of its heavy weight, if it hits the enemy's shield, it will cause the enemy's movement to be inconvenient, thus hindering the battle, and if the shield is thrown away, it will fall into a situation of lack of protection; Third, the cost and consumption of man-hours are lower than that of bows and crossbows, which are more convenient to use and easier to train, and do not require professional training like bows and crossbows, and the iron head of the javelin is very thin, and it will bend rapidly while being able to penetrate the enemy's armor, which strengthens the killing effect and avoids the enemy from throwing it back.

Most importantly, the javelin makes up for the blind spot of short-range attacks, and when the enemy is close, or when the enemy is already entangled with our army, and our archers are no longer convenient to shoot, the spearmen can throw javelins to defeat the enemy. Because of Jin Liang's consideration, the order of attack of the Central Army became thunderbolt chariot soldiers, crossbow soldiers, infantry archers, cavalry, spearmen, and sword and shield soldiers, all of which were determined according to the distance of the attack.

Next to the large number of stationary crossbowmen, there are also hundreds of crossbowmen, who move according to the movement of the enemy's middle and high-ranking generals, and shoot the enemy's middle and high-ranking generals when they find the opportunity.

This team is the elite unit in the long-range attack army, Jin Liang named it a sniper team according to their behavioral characteristics, and each division has only one sniper team, all of which are the elites of archers and crossbowmen, and are responsible for sniping enemy leaders.

Yang Yi is Yang Ding's brother, serving as the commander of Yang Ding's army, with four or five hundred people under his command, because he has followed Yang Ding for a long time, he has experienced some battles and encountered ambushes, he is not in a hurry, he hurriedly asked people to raise their shields, climb the hillside, and shout while climbing: "Brothers, don't panic, the number of enemy troops is not large, we calm down, calmly counterattack, we still have the possibility of victory!" As soon as he finished saying this, a javelin was projected on his shield, and the javelin more than four feet long was pierced on his shield, making his action a little difficult, he wanted to cross the shield sideways, pull out the javelin, and his neck leaked out, a crossbow arrow snorted, impartially, shot him in the neck, Yang Yi turned over and fell to the ground, and died of anger, and the four or five hundred people under his command were originally under his command, and they all rushed to climb the hillside, but when he was killed by crossbow arrows, the four or five hundred people and six gods had no master, and the Nuogan people shouted loudly to avenge the tun chief, but was shot to the ground by several sudden feathered arrows.

In this way, among the 20,000 infantry under Yang Ding, the middle and high-level generals who dared to show their heads and come out to resist were all shot to the ground, and the leaderless Xiliang soldiers heard that the Central Army "are all Han Chinese, why kill each other!" Disarm and don't kill, surrender is rewarded! Return to the center, glory for generations! Look at the Western Liang soldiers who rose up to resist and were shot to the ground by arrows and pierced by javelins, many Western Liang soldiers threw down their weapons and lay on the ground, waiting for the Central Army to be absorbed.
