Chapter 455: Lushan Fierce Battle
Yu Ban saw that Lu Bu's remnants of the army were defeated and would not retreat but advanced, and slaughtered all sides in the Tiger Guards. Regardless of his own safety, he just rushed to him, and his liver and gall were broken.
He knows better than anyone else about Lu Budi's armed forces, and in the first battle of Xiapi that year, Lu Bu fought alone against the six generals of Cao Ying. Yu Ban still remembers it vividly. Moreover, compared with the force of the forbidden land, it is still the weakest of the six generals. He pinned his hopes on the Tiger Guards who couldn't stop Lu Budi's pace for a while, and shouted in horror: "Quick, go up quickly, stop Lu Bu!" β
After Yu Ban finished shouting, he commanded the soldiers next to him to step forward to intercept and kill, and he moved under his feet and retreated.
Although the Tiger Guards are Cao Cao's personal guard troops, they are no less sophisticated than the tigers and leopards, and they are extremely brave. The weak formation of encircling the mountain could not stop the two generals, Lu Bu and Zhou Cang, who led the local guards to rush and kill Yu Ban.
When Yu Ban arranged the troops, he didn't expect that Lu Bu would attack the position where the main general was, and the troops were the most powerful. The position of the army in the forbidden place happens to be the weakest and weakest place in the army. Under the prohibition of retreat, the ground front of the Tiger Guard Army was longer, and the number of soldiers in the column position was even smaller.
Finally, Yu Ban slowly retreated, and there was no longer a soldier around him to come forward to intercept him. Hurriedly turned around and ran towards Cao Ying at the bottom of the mountain.
As soon as Yu Ban left, the Tiger Guards had no intention of fighting, and under the pursuit of Lu Bu's personal guards, the corpse that was left behind also retreated with Yu Ban. Yu Ban ran back to the camp, Cao Cao beat his chest and felt remorseful. He just tried his best to ambush the soldiers at the location where Lu Bu might appear, but he didn't expect Lu Bu to really go to the top of the mountain to observe, he knew that this was the case, how could Cao Cao not rule out reinforcements to assist Yu Ban and encircle and suppress Lu Bu?
LΓΌ Bu returned to the army and angrily gave the order to fight to the death.
Yan Yan stepped out of the ranks, and the blades of the armor made a piercing grinding sound. The drums of war sounded again.
The soldiers of Chang'an were not demoralized by the futility of dozens of attacks, but should have drunk the muffled sound of war drums, raised their toes, and raised their spears.
"Ho, ho, ho."
The soldiers of Chang'an formed a large array, tens of thousands of soldiers raised their spears, swords and shields, raised their heads to the sky and shouted, the sound shook the four fields, and they shook off the pace and killed the mouth of the valley again.
Yan Yan looked at Taniguchi, restless, crying and shouting, and slowly drew his sword, the blade glowing white in the sun.
"Help the Han to suppress the thief, kill."
"Kill." The silent sea of people immediately turned into a surging crowd, swords and spears in the air, shouting and rushing towards the people.
The militia also moved at the same time, and the mountains were full of running militiamen, and the cries and shouts overshadowed the shouts of killing on the battlefield, which was deafening, and the sky and the earth changed.
Arrows rained down, and the Chang'an soldiers had not yet approached, so a round of arrow rain covered the sky and covered the people's soldiers. The militia soldiers did not have bows and arrows, they were passively beaten, crying even more, they were pierced by sharp arrows, and the rockets ignited the fig cloth. Dozens of pounds of rocks fell from the sky and smashed into the brain, blood splattered, and the miserable howls were endless, and those seriously injured soldiers charged unabated, and continued to charge against the wild spray of blood. The wounded who fell to the ground were immediately trampled to the ground, and thousands of people poured over and turned into piles of flesh.
The militia soldiers are not afraid of death, however, the gap between the equipment of the two sides is too large, and the Lu Bu army is also not afraid of death, and they continue to rush forward to kill, and the huge gap between the militia and the soldiers is undoubtedly obvious.
After the Chang'an army dropped layers of corpses, the front line was pushed out of the mountain pass. In the open area, more and more Chang'an troops began to gather, and under the Chang'an army fighting so bravely, it was a matter of time before Lushan was lost.
Behind the mountain, Cao Cao could already see the battlefield clearly. Cao Cao's pestle sword stood on the viewing platform, looking at the fierce battlefield, his heart was about to jump out. This is the most critical part of Cao Cao's plan, and all of Lu Bu's army must be in Lushan.
Cao Cao stood up suddenly, drew his sword in his hand, and pointed obliquely at the sky: "Pass the order." The people participating in the battlefield only need to stay on guard until dark. After dark, regardless of success or failure, all the people will receive land and food! β
Tens of thousands of heralds rushed out and passed Cao Cao's orders.
"Protect the territory and the people, meet and kill the enemy!"
When the people heard the order, they burst into cheers. The previous resentment turned into cheers, and the battle spirit erupted more fiercely, and spontaneously rushed to the battlefield like a mountain of land.
The militia burst out with a strong will, and the Chang'an army felt this terrifying momentum for the first time. Lu Bu sent someone to inquire and learned that Cao Cao had issued the latest new order. Lu Budi's anger intensified. It's really a bad guy who suddenly gets better, and it's unimaginable how much he is embraced. The policy of Chang'an has always been people-oriented, but it is not supported by the people of the world!
The momentum of the militia's explosion was only enough to stop the Chang'an army for a moment, once again showing a huge gap in combat power.
Cao Cao saw that he was still invincible, and the soldiers of Chang'an were all brave and well-equipped, most of which were Cao Cao's equipment collected by the Chang'an soldiers in the previous battle of Hanshui.
The soldiers ran like ants, arrows rained down, spears rained down, and flying stones roared.
The soldiers of Chang'an roared and stabbed out their spears, and the two armies fought bloodily in the field, stabbing each other's spears and guns into each other's chests, blood all over the ground, people called horses and neighed, and rows of civilian soldiers fell to the ground, poured into a pool of blood, with their round eyes open, and their heads were stepped on by the soldiers behind. In the blink of an eye, the brave militia soldiers were slaughtered like chickens and ducks by the elite of Chang'an, and the number of people decreased dramatically.
"The guards will be guarded, the remnants of the Qingzhou soldiers, the remnants of the Taishan soldiers, and the Hebei miscellaneous soldiers will all be mixed into the untouchables in small units!" Cao Cao couldn't see the hope of victory, and all the civil and military expressions were concerned, and Cao Cao decided to fight with all his might, and he would never succeed or lose.
The war is still raging. The Chang'an shield hand and the elite ground trap camp troops also joined the battlefield, and they were just invincible, and the pace of attack was stopped like a bamboo harvesting straw. The speed of breaking positions is getting slower and slower. Among the chaotic people's soldiers, countless Cao Cao's elites were like stubborn stones in the flood, standing still.
The army of Chang'an is still brave, but the formation is tripped by Cao Cao's elite mixed with the militia. The shieldman struggled forward, and the spearman rushed forward slowly as the shieldman slashed forward.
Lu Meng licked his cracked lips, stared at the battlefield and said, "General, you see, our army has been moving forward, and although the militia is brave, it is still vulnerable in the face of the huge gap. β
"Until the last moment, if you don't see Cao Cao's head, don't break the context easily." Lu Bu became more and more cautious. He just saw that Cao Cao's handsome tent was behind the mountain, and after Cao Cao retreated to Xiangcheng, he did not return to Hebei directly, but spent several days coercing the people and using the people to resist Lu Bu's army.
"Order to speed up the attack, at all costs, break through the Cao army's large array as soon as possible!"
Dozens of cavalry rushed out and passed Lu Budi's order to the battlefield: "The general has an order, speed up the attack, and break through the enemy formation at any cost!" β
"Flag soldiers, raise the flag, and the whole army will attack the enemy army. Target, Cao Cao Shuaitai. β
The flags were alternated, and the generals charged forward, accelerating the fierce offensive against Cao's army. Suddenly, Cao Jun felt a huge increase in pressure. Especially where the trapped camp is, it was not cut out as a short knife, and rows of militia soldiers were cut down. Even if he encountered Cao Cao's elite mixed with the militia soldiers, he still couldn't resist the momentum of the camp charge.
Behind the trapped camp, more and more ordinary soldiers rushed in from the trapped camp to break through the formation.
Yan Yan led the army to rush to the front, splitting two heads with one sword, and a round of big knives: "Rush with a certain one." Kill all the traitors before it gets dark! β
Sergeants from the brigade followed. In the face of the fierce rushing enemy army, Cao Bing felt that there were enemies on all sides, and they felt isolated and helpless in the midst of the militia soldiers. Do you rely on this group of soldiers to defend against thieves? Even if the fighting spirit of the militia is countless higher than the elite of the Cao soldiers, Cao Jun still does not feel that the militia is more powerful than them.
The sky gradually darkened, but the battle situation in Cao Jundi became more and more unfavorable. The militia soldiers have been fighting to the death for a long time and have not retreated, but the elite soldiers under Cao Cao's command began to resist the pressure and retreated.
Suddenly, behind Cao Bing's formation, there was a noise. I saw Cao Cao slowly moving towards the fierce battlefield. On the carriage, Cao Cao drew his sword and pointed angrily at the sky, raised his head and stared ahead, his red robe hunted with the wind, and his murderous aura was four volumes.
Cao Cao impassionedly came to the edge of the battlefield and personally supervised the battle. The morale of the Cao army was suddenly lifelong, and groups of Cao soldiers gathered together to once again block the surprise attack of the Chang'an soldiers.
"There is no retreat, and those who retreat are immediately killed!"
Gao Shun waved his sword and shouted to the camp around him. The trapped camp shouted at the same time: "Those who enter live, and those who retreat die." β
After the camp roared, he fought even more desperately.
At the same time, Lu Bu also led the cavalry to appear on the flank of the battlefield, holding up the halberd, and shouted angrily at the cavalry behind him: "Charge with me!" β
The war horse was like crashing through layers of waves, quickly penetrating the chaotic soldiers of the Cao army in front, killing the two armies in horror, and approaching Cao Cao's handsome platform.
Lu Meng wielded a broadsword and slashed vertically and horizontally like a raging wind, leading the way in the forefront of the soldiers to break through the defensive line of Cao's army.
Lu Bu painted a halberd and swept it, bringing out pieces of blood flowers, Cao soldiers were churning in the air, and the soldiers of Chang'an saw that the main general took the lead, and their courage doubled, and they were more brave to kill the enemy, and they were unstoppable. On all sides, there were Chang'an soldiers shouting to kill.
Cao Cao watched the battlefield become more and more fierce, because he personally supervised the army, and the blood and courage of the other army became more intense. The generals under Lu Bu's tent were exhausted, each with one to kill from all sides, and the elite of the Cao army and the people were destroyed and cut down to the ground in pieces.
"I can't stand it, Prime Minister, I can't stand it. Let's go. Cheng Yu, Xun Yu and several other important strategists rushed to Cao Cao under a group of guards, crying and mourning.
Cao Cao knew that he had just boosted the morale of the ground, like a dying man returning to the light. If he could not effectively intercept the all-out charge of the Chang'an army, Cao Cao really had to flee back to Hebei, and the south of the Yellow River, together with Xuchang, Chenliu and other places in Henan, would be completely alienated under this battle.
Cao Cao stood up from the main seat, pressed his hand on the handsome case, and leaned out his upper body for a long time, wanting to see the battlefield more clearly. The sky is getting darker and darker, and it will be pitch black for half an hour at most. Cao Cao's face showed a fierce and resolute decision: "Pass the order to the ban, Le Jin, Li Dian." Personally lead the army to resist, only need to resist for half an hour, and the defense collapses in half an hour, and Hugh blames himself for being merciless. All the generals below the three of him were beheaded! β
