Losing two games in a row has dealt a big blow to morale, and now he is being challenged by name, if Cheng Zhiyuan doesn't go to the battle, these guys under his command will definitely think that he is cowardly, and the blow to morale will be even greater, and the troops are likely to collapse because of this; This is the first battle after arriving in Youzhou, which is very crucial for the Yellow Turban Army, and he cannot afford to lose, and he is very confident in his martial arts.

Cheng Zhiyuan had made up his mind and came out.

Seeing Qu Shuai personally go out, the morale of the Yellow Turban Army was greatly boosted, and they shouted loudly to cheer for Cheng Zhiyuan.

Cheng Zhiyuan, as a Qu Shuai, has a good eloquence, he did not rush to fight, but reined in the horses, and said to Yan Liang bitterly: "The court is dark, the people's livelihood is suffering, and the Han court is exhausted. ”

"Hahaha, how can a lover be in the company of a thief and take his life!" Yan Liang said, waving the long-handled nine-ring thick-backed knife and went straight to Cheng Zhiyuan's front door.

Cheng Zhiyuan saw that Yan Liang's body was huge and the horses were strong, so he knew that the opponent was a powerful general, and he didn't dare to fight hard.

The two sides turned their horses' heads and charged each other, this time Cheng Zhiyuan took the lead, the spear stabbed Yan Liang in the chest, and Yan Liang blocked it with a knife; Cheng Zhiyuan shook a shot and stabbed Yan Liang's war horse.

Yan Liang was very annoyed and scolded: "Despicable villain! ”

"Haha, this so-called soldier is not tired of cheating!" After teasing Yan Liang, Cheng Zhiyuan was in a good mood.

The Yellow Turbans immediately responded with a warm shout.

"Qu Shuai will win!"

"Qu Shuai is invincible!"

Yan Liang didn't dare to slack off, and slashed at Cheng Zhiyuan's neck with a knife, it was a big deal to lose a war horse, and he also wanted to get rid of this despicable person.

Cheng Zhiyuan didn't want to fight with his opponent, so he hurriedly returned the gun, leaned forward, lay tightly on the horse's back, and dodged a knife; The long knife just cut off a strand of his long hair, making him feel a chill on his scalp.

Yan Liang originally wanted to capture the other party alive, but this guy was worth two jars of wine; But Cheng Zhiyuan was too cunning, so he had nowhere to be powerful.

Cheng Zhiyuan was more flexible, dodging Yan Liang's deadly attacks one after another.

Yan Liang used a big knife, his physical strength was very exerted, and he was very angry in his heart; Cheng Zhiyuan uses a spear, and most of the dexterity he uses is still able to deal with it freely.

The two sides fought for more than 10 rounds without a winner.

Gao Shun took advantage of the two of them to fight, carefully observed the Yellow Turban Army on the opposite side, and thought to himself, the Yellow Turban Army is indeed a group of rabble, with backward weapons and equipment, no armor, and a messy formation, and there are no pikemen in front of the formation, let alone archers, which is just suitable for cavalry charge.

Yan Liang was anxious, and after charging again, he waved the big knife and went straight to Cheng Zhiyuan's head, Cheng Zhiyuan still wanted to pick Yan Liang's big knife, but Yan Liang's arms shrank back slightly, and the big knife went straight to Cheng Zhiyuan's war horse, Cheng Zhiyuan's strength was exhausted, and he couldn't defend back, and the head of the war horse was split in half by Yan Liang's knife.

Cheng Zhi followed in the footsteps of Deng Mao and was captured alive.

The Yellow Turban Army lost its leader, many people were frightened and pale, and stood on the spot, many people came back to their senses and began to desperately run backwards, and shouted: "Qu Shuai is dead, run for your life." ”

When the people behind heard the news that Qu Shuai was dead, they immediately became confused.

Gao Shun saw that the opportunity could not be missed, and hurriedly ordered the left and right flanks to attack; Then he and Li Qiang led the Chinese army to rush towards the Yellow Turban Army.

The swarthy cavalry pressed over, making the Yellow Turbans tremble; Thousands of cavalry troops ran very mighty; The horse's hooves struck the earth, making a loud "boom" sound, like thunder; The ground shook violently, like an earthquake; The dust brought up by the horse's hooves obscures the sky and the sun, which is terrifying.

Any shouts are masked by the loud sound of horses' hooves.

The Yellow Turban Army is full of peasants who have just put down their hoes, how have they ever seen such a formation? Many people have been scared to pee their pants.

Arrows flew into the crowd, each of which would take the life of a Yellow Turban.

The Yellow Turbans in front had been routed and swarmed backwards.

And at the back of the team are the families of the Yellow Turban Army, how can they run past the young men in front of the battlefield? Weak children, the elderly, and women were pushed to the ground and trampled to death in an instant.

All the Yellow Turban Army lost their command and were mixed together, unable to fight back at all, and their lives were harvested by the ruthless arrows of the Youzhou Army.

Looking at the sharp arrows as dense as flying locusts, the Yellow Turban Army was even more frightened, and desperately crowded each other to flee south.

The left and right wings went all the way to the south, galloping and shooting arrows; Gao Shun and Li Qiang led the cavalry to encircle on both sides. The Yellow Turbans are now crowded together, too dense to rush into the crowd, and it is still easy to harvest with sharp arrows. But those who lag behind are mercilessly killed, and their corpses are trampled into mud by war horses.

The Yellow Turbans became lambs to the slaughter at this time.

Nearly 100,000 sharp arrows were fired, and before the people who trampled to death could make direct contact, the Yellow Turban Army lost more than half of its personnel.

Gao Shun thought to himself, no wonder Liu Da'er could easily win in history, it seems that it is not how strong his army is, but that the enemy is too weak.

Guan Yu and Yan Liang met in the north of Lu Shui and blocked the escape route of the Yellow Turban Army; The cavalry stopped the chase and surrounded the Yellow Turbans.

And because no one in the Yellow Turban Army took the lead, no one dared to break through, let alone launch a charge against the cavalry, so they could only crowd together and resign themselves to fate.

Wen Chou reminded: "Gong Ji, Yun Chang, the lord asks to catch as many prisoners as possible. ”

Yan Liang and Guan Yu remembered the lord's instructions at this time, and hurriedly asked the soldiers to shout: "Surrender and don't kill!" ”

"Surrender or kill!"

"Surrender or kill!"

By this time, there was no loud sound of horses' hooves; The screams of the sky spread throughout the battlefield, and all the Yellow Turban soldiers heard it.

There were countless casualties, and even Qu Shuai's life and death were unknown, how could they escape the pursuit of the cavalry?

Some people took the lead in surrendering, so the people around them followed suit and laid down their arms one after another to surrender to the Youzhou army.

Gao Shun was overjoyed when he saw that the Yellow Turban Army had surrendered, and the rest of the people were all strong people, and the weak ones had already been trampled to death.

Officers and soldiers were ordered to detain those who surrendered separately, all family members were escorted to the north of Yishui, and all the young men were asked to dig pits, collect the bodies of the dead, recover arrows, and loot trophies after registration.

The statistics are handled by a dozen junior civil servants; The infantry of the 4 divisions was also brought in to help.

The scene was guarded by Yan Liang and others; Gao Shun and Li Qiang led the Chinese army back to the barracks, and he was in a hurry to interrogate Cheng Zhiyuan and Deng Mao, and strive to let the two take refuge, otherwise they would be killed directly and handed over to the imperial court as a war merit.

The county magistrates, county magistrates, county lieutenants, and patriarchs of major families in Fanyang County all stood on the city wall and looked at the south silently, anxiously waiting for the news of the war.

Although there are troops stationed outside the city, but the number is too small, if the battle is defeated, the army can quickly evacuate, but the county seat cannot be moved.

In order to prevent accidents, each family also sent all the family members, and the county lieutenant organized all the young men in the city to defend the city wall.

The shouts of the sky and the galloping of war horses from the south have made the hearts of everyone in the city hang in their throats.

By noon, the people who were waiting for the news on the north bank of Yishui immediately rushed back to the county seat to report the news after learning of the victory.

The county magistrate was overjoyed and immediately ordered the county to organize the major families to sacrifice the army, and he and the county lieutenant hurried to the barracks.

After meeting Gao Shun, Gao Shun arranged for them to assist in the collection of prisoners of war and the inventory of war exploits.

That night, the good news was sent to Luoyang, Jingshi and Jixian Assassin's Mansion, and 25,000 people were beheaded; Gao Shun concealed the captives, and the credit went to Li Qiang, the commander of Shanggu County, and four people, including Hou Yanliang, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Wen Chou, who were the commanders of the Wuhuan Commander's Office.
