Chapter 127: Cao Bao retreats
The ground trembled faintly, but the two sides of the fight did not notice the anomaly at all, and both focused their attention on the eyes.
It wasn't until the Xiliang Iron Cavalry led by Xu Rong came out of the night and killed Cao Bao that Cao Bao found out that the enemy still had a backhand, but it was too late.
The Xiliang Iron Cavalry, who was charging at full speed, rushed into the camp in an instant, and tore a big hole in Cao Bao's soldiers, and scattered Cao Bao's soldiers.
Ling Cao saw the chaos in the rear of Cao Bao's army from a distance, and knew that Xu Rong was coming, so he ordered the whole army to storm and contain Cao Bao's army, echoing with each other.
Although Lu Dai didn't know what was going on, but seeing Ling Cao like that, he looked fearless, he must be tired, so he didn't think about it, so he hurriedly killed and joined Ling Cao.
Ling Cao took the lead and killed at the front, only to see a young general also rushing to the front, his martial arts were a little immature, but he danced the spear in his hand vigorously, not hiding his fierce temperament.
Ling Cao grinned, he couldn't lose to a junior, it would be too embarrassing. Thinking of this, the sharp long knife in his hand also swung a little faster.
Xu Rong came out of the night and rushed to kill for a while, but he didn't find where the enemy's commander was. But it doesn't matter, just go to a crowded place.
In the southeast area where there is a lack of war horses and cavalry, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry under Xu Rong is like a BUG, with its super combat effectiveness and mobility, destroying the balance of the game, and making Cao Bao cry and cry for his mother.
Cao Bao's army was attacked by the enemy on the back, and almost at the moment when the cavalry rushed into the enemy's formation, Cao Bao knew that he was defeated, completely defeated, and it was so cold.
But if you lose, it doesn't matter, the important thing is to save your own life.
Taking advantage of the fact that the soldiers were on the verge of collapse and could resist for a while, Cao Bao took a few personal soldiers and rode on war horses as if he were on the verge of collapse, and fled towards the endless night.
Therefore, it is normal that Xu Rong did not find Cao Bao.
Cao Bao ran away, but he suffered the soldiers who were still struggling to support, and when he looked back, why was his own coach gone??? Finding that Cao Bao was gone, these soldiers no longer had the heart to resist, and they threw down their weapons one after another, threw away all their burdens, and fled in all directions.
It was a good time to expand the results of the battle, how could Xu Rong let it go. Before he could say hello to Ling Cao and Lu Dai, Xu Rong took his cavalry to chase down the fleeing soldiers.
Xu Rong is a smart man, he knows that Kanto and Guanwai are two completely different places, and what the Xiliang soldiers outside Guanwai think should be taken for granted and normal, and putting it in Kanto to do it will inevitably cause disgust and disgust among these Kanto people.
Just like what Dong Zhuo did in the capital at the beginning, outside the customs, Dong Zhuo *** female, killing people all depends on the mood, soldiers slaughtering civilians, robbing property, and even digging people's ancestral graves.
Not only will it not arouse the disgust of the people of the world, but it will applaud because Dong Zhuo killed a foreigner. is really a person who is not used to it, at most, he is secretly scolding a barbarian in his heart, and he will not show too much abnormality on the surface.
Xu Rong didn't know that he was born and raised in Xiliang, and Xu Rong also spent time in the Central Plains in his early years. Although he followed Dong Zhuo and fought outside the border all the year round, Xu Rong did not have that kind of lawless gene in his bones.
Therefore, Xu Rong, who knew this truth well, not only ordered his soldiers not to harass the people, but also not to kill prisoners, if he wanted to mix in the Kanto region, everything had to be done according to the methods of the Kanto region.
Although in fact, what both sides did was the same filthy, but the princes of the Kwantung region and the scholars of the world liked to put on a beautiful cloak on top of this dirty fact to hide people's eyes and ears.
Xu Rong was very disdainful, but now Xu Rong had to do the same, otherwise even Jiang Hong would not be able to keep him.
Fortunately, the military discipline of Xu Rong's soldiers is not bad, and Xu Rong himself is not a murderous person. Xu Rong's order, the soldiers did not resist much, and it was executed.
When it was dawn, Xu Rong returned to Sheyang with his soldiers, not only soldiers, but also many prisoners. You must know that under normal circumstances, the Xiliang Army does not leave prisoners.
"Thank you General Xu for your help, Lu is very grateful." Lu Dai learned everything from Ling Cao, and hurriedly thanked Xu Rong.
"The superintendent does not have to be like this, in the future, everyone will be under the command of the lord, Xu Mouchu knelt on the ground, and I hope that the superintendent will give Xu a lot of advice." Xu Rong said with a smile.
"General Xu, after the war is over today, Lu has not had time to hold a banquet in the city, and I hope the general will not care."
"It's okay, it's useful to supervise the post to get Xu's place, please don't be polite." After the big victory, the burden in everyone's hearts was put down, and it was quite a bit of a taste of the rest of the catastrophe.
After counting the battle damage, Lu Dai immediately wrote a war report and sent someone to Moling.
In Moling City, Jiang Hong was lying on the bed, quietly looking at the battle report sent by Lu Dai.
"Zhongde, take a look too." After speaking, Jiang Hong handed the battle report in his hand to Cheng Yu, who was standing aside.
Cheng Yu took a closer look, Jiang Hong was not in a hurry, and waited quietly for Cheng Yu to finish reading.
In the end, Cheng Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief:
"The lord's foundation has finally been preserved."
"It's not enough." Jiang Hong said suddenly.
"Lord, now that we have insufficient troops, occupying the land of the four counties is already the limit, and we will expand further. Fear.. Cheng Yu persuaded.
"I know this, it's easy to pull eggs when you take a big step." Jiang Hong said with a smile, "And our troops are greatly damaged, even if we defeat the redundant counties, we are not able to defend them at all, so why take them down?" ”
"The Lord is a wise man." Cheng Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
"But that guy Tao Ying actually dared to attack my Guangling, it just so happened that Xu Rong was in Sheyang, I have to teach Tao Ying a profound lesson." Jiang Hong said viciously.
"Is the lord preparing for Xu Rongqi to attack Donghai County?" Cheng Yu asked.
"No, what I want Xu Rong to go to is Pengcheng." Jiang Hong said.
"Lord, what are you doing in Pengcheng? Tao Ying wasn't there. Dian Wei, who had been standing aside and guarding Jiang Hong, asked.
"He Tao Ying is just a puppet of the Zhang family at best, Zhongde, write a letter to Xu Rong, and say, as long as you don't slaughter the people, I will do whatever he wants." Jiang Hong said.
Xu Rong looked at the letter in his hand, a little crying and laughing, he was in a hurry day and night, and before he had time to rest for a few days, Jiang Hong came to find trouble for himself again.
However, moving his mouth above and breaking his leg below, Xu Rong had to take over this errand. Fortunately, Jiang Hong said in the letter that everything was decided by Xu Rong himself, and Xu Rong could recuperate first before setting out on the expedition.
