Chapter Eighty-Eight: Cutting Guan Luo, Attacking the Ancient City at Night
Chapter 88 beheaded Guan Luo and attacked the ancient city at night
The above book said that Dong Dao brought the vanguard troops to Yecheng and was resisted by the people of the Yellow Turban Leader Guan Luo, and they were not allowed to advance an inch. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć The deputy commander of the 16th Battalion, Zhuo An, fought against Zhang Yang and Zhang Yin, and forced Guan Luo, the leader of the Yellow Turban, to fight against Dong Dao. Dong Dao relied on the Qingfeng knife technique, and picked up Guan Luo's helmet with four knives, and scared Guan Luo away.
Guan Luo ran towards the main formation, and Dong Dao followed closely with a knife.
At this time, the Chinese troops of the left flank Golden Shield, the right flank Iron Armor and Xu Chu also arrived, and when they saw this, they rushed forward with their troops. Qi Shao of the 16th Battalion immediately waved the long knife in his hand when he saw it, and also led the team to rush up.
Zhang Hongxing was afraid that Guan Luo would lose, so he and several other small leaders commanded the Yellow Turban soldiers to rush and kill. The soldiers will suddenly be mixed up.
Dong Dao caught up with Guan Luo again and stood with Guan Luo. That Hongxing was afraid that Guan Luo was not Dong Dao's opponent, so he wanted to rush over and fight Dong Dao with Guan Luo.
Qi Shao looked at it, and the short crossbow in his left hand shot three arrows at Zhang Hongxing, and shot head-on towards Zhang Hongxing like chasing the stars and catching the moon.
Where would Zhang Hongxing pay attention here? I felt three arrows suddenly appear in front of me. As soon as he tried to dodge, he was shot through the head by three arrows. Don't even think about helping Guan Luo, you wait for Guan Luo to also die, go to the next round with him!
Qi Shao leveled Zhang Hongxing and carried a long knife to help Dong Dao.
Guan Luo just suffered a dark loss because of Dong Dao's Qingfeng knife technique. At this time, he was even more cautious and fought with Dong Dao. Dong Dao couldn't fight for a long time, so he unfolded the second blow style. The blowing style is also four knives: the first and second knives blow the leaves and fall, and when the knife cuts to the head and the enemy blocks, pull back half a foot and cut its waist; The third and fourth knives blow the dust, cut its waist and do not succeed, and the knife falls from the bottom to the top, provoked, and cut flat.
These four knives were very fast, but they were all dodged by Guan Luo. But it still forced Guan Luo to be embarrassed, and after the wind blew the dust, a knife was added to his head again, and some of the blood was left to cover his eyes.
It was this wound that brought him fatal injuries. Because his vision was blocked, his flexibility became much worse. However, Dong Dao's third sweeping style has already been displayed. There are 12 styles of Qingfeng knife method, each of which is four knives. The first knife of the sweeping style is called the spring breeze sweep, and this knife takes the person from the head; The second knife is called Xia Feng Sweep, and if you can't take the head of the person, you will be diverted back to cut the enemy's waist; The third knife is called the autumn wind sweep, and after the second knife fails, it will be changed to split Huashan, which is extremely powerful; The fourth knife, swept by the winter wind, after the force split Huashan was resisted, the knife was withdrawn, changed to a horizontal knife thousand troops, and slashed out like a thunderbolt, giving the enemy the most powerful blow.
However, with just one spring breeze, Dong Dao took off Guan Luo's head.
The mere 3,000 Yellow Turban Army, after Xu Chu, Tian Feng and others arrived, quickly killed most of them. Dong Dao lifted Guan Luo's head and shouted loudly: "The head of the thief has been executed, and those who descend will not die!" ā
At this time, there were only more than 1,000 Yellow Turban soldiers left, and when they heard this, they threw down their weapons one after another and surrendered on their knees.
Xu Chu ordered Fan Jian to take the soldiers down to clean up the battlefield and count the casualties; Ordered Zhao Hong to be responsible for the arrangements for the surrender of troops, and temporarily detain them first, and wait until the ancient city is conquered, and then deal with it.
After a short time, Fan Jian counted the casualties on the battlefield and reported: "Report to the third general, the 16th Battalion has lost 52 people, the 17th Battalion has lost 43 people, the 18th Battalion has lost 66 people, the 19th Battalion has lost 70 people, the 20th Battalion has lost 47 people, the new 1st Battalion has lost 130 people, the new 2nd Battalion has lost 111 people, and the New 3rd Battalion has lost 142 people. 661 people in total. Two thousand and seventy-one enemy soldiers were killed, nine hundred and twenty-nine were captured, and not one of them escaped. ā
"Very well, how much material has been seized?" Xu Chu asked.
"The third general, twenty horses, and three thousand weapons. Horses have been distributed to the battalions. Fan Jian said.
"Splitter, you take the brothers of the 16th Battalion to this small city to find out, is there an enemy warehouse or something? We're going to help them keep their stuff safe! Ha ha! "Xu Chu always remembered Liu Qian, and the first task after winning the battle was to get the enemy's strategic materials.
Dong Dao led the order to go out.
At this time, Tian Feng came in from outside and said to Xu Chu: "General, this place is only an hour or two away from the rapid march of the ancient city. When will you attack the ancient city, please think twice? ā
"Mr. Yuan Hao, you must have a plan in mind! Might as well speak up. "This Xu Chu is not stupid, seeing Tian Feng say this, I guessed that he must have a plan in his heart.
"Since the general asked so, then I'll be straight to the point." Tian Feng paused, and took out the map in his arms again, but this map was different from the previous one, this was the map of the ancient city, and the streets and alleys were clearly drawn. He pointed to the map and said, "Tonight, our army will assemble as soon as it is watched, and we will set off in half an hour. If you are in a hurry, you can reach this position before the third watch. ā
"When we get there, are we going to attack directly?" Xu Chu asked.
"Not for now. This ancient city is a little bigger than this Ye City. In order to hoard grain there, Peng Tuo has slaughtered the people there. So there were all the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army, about 5,000 people. The guard is Peng Tuo's younger brother named Peng Quan, with a big axe in his hand, weighing seventy-two pounds, brave and powerful, he is a general among ten thousand, and even Guan Hai is only twenty or thirty enemies under Peng Tuo. Tian Feng motioned for Xu Chu to listen to his introduction first, and said, "Most of them are not from the ancient city. Therefore, although the ancient city walls are not strong, it is not very rare to enter the ancient city under their protection. ā
"Is there something you can't do, sir?" Xu Chu still couldn't help but ask.
"General, please look here." Tian Feng pointed to the map, and a small semicircle was drawn in front of the location he was about to reach, "This is the place where the original city wall collapsed, and it was later blocked." Because there were no officials in the city, the people repaired it by themselves. Therefore, this place is very low, and our fighters are all young adults, so jumping into this place should not be a problem. After the third watch, we sent two battalions, the 16th and 17th battalions, to enter from here. Then, the general led the eighteenth, nineteenth, new first, second and third battalions to attack from the main gate, and the gate of the ancient city was nothing more than a broken plank, and I am afraid that even the general's knife could not be stopped. This Yecheng and the captives were guarded by the 20th battalion. ā
"What a brilliant idea, sir! Coup! Xu Chu was very happy when he heard this.
In the evening, Xu Chu began to arrange for the firehead soldiers to open fire and cook very early, so that the soldiers were full of food and drink to prepare for the night battle.
A day later, Xu Chu issued a gathering order.
In a short time, all eight battalions were assembled.
Xu Chu began his pre-war speech: "Brothers, tonight we are going to rob Pengtuo's grain hoarding place. After winning this battle, we will receive abundant food. Our Pingnan Army will be better guaranteed in future battles. Brothers, are you ready? ā
"Ready! You ready! Eight thousand people replied in unison.
When Tian Feng heard this, he was a little delusional, and he always felt as if he had entered a robber's den. ^_^
Next, Xu Chu issued various combat tasks: "Hold on, protect, and wait until the third watch day when we arrive at the ancient city, and the two of you will enter the ancient city from this place with the sixteenth and seventeenth battalions respectively." Once you're inside, we'll charge. Mr. Split Valve and Mr. Yuan Hao stayed in Yecheng, leaving the twenty battalions to guard here. The others set off with me. ā
After everything was arranged, Xu Chu took Fan Jian, Jin Dun, Tie Jia and Zhao Hong, and led 7,000 soldiers to take advantage of the night to rush towards the ancient city.
Before the third watch, they came to the place marked on Tianfeng's map. Xu Chu pointed out to the golden shield and iron armor the location of the low wall that could be passed. The two men quietly bypassed the city gate with two battalions of soldiers and hurried to the low wall.
Looking at the gate of the ancient city from afar, Xu Chu and the others saw four soldiers swaying in circles outside the gate by the light of the torches. From time to time, a few words of scolding from the leader came from inside.
About half an hour later, Fan Jian asked Xu Chu in a low voice: "Three generals, the two of you should have already taken your brothers in." Are we going to fight? ā
Xu Chu looked in the direction where the two Jin Dun were going, nodded, and said in a low voice: "The cavalry charges quickly, and the infantry follows the attack." Rush! ā
At the sound of an order, Xu Chu took the lead and led more than 7,000 people towards the gate of the ancient city.
The four soldiers outside the gate of the ancient city were frightened when they looked at the thousands of troops that suddenly appeared. Hurriedly running in, they shouted as they ran: "Oh no! Oh no! Enemy attack! Enemy attack! The enemy is coming! ā
Peng Quan was hugging the snatched girl in her cabin, sleeping soundly! Suddenly hearing this voice, the kid got up with a cleverness, put on his clothes three times and divided them by two, and before he had time to put on his armor, he took the axe and pulled it out.
On the streets, the Yellow Turban soldiers were in disarray. I was already frightened by the cries of a few sentinels, and these Yellow Turban soldiers were like lost dogs.
At this time, the brothers of the 16th battalion of the Pingnan Army, under the leadership of Jin Dun, began to attack and kill these Yellow Turban soldiers, but they did not kill them, and they turned around and evacuated here.
The soldier who had been slashed was gone. He scolded: "Which king and eight lambs look at Lao Tzu? Because it was dark and I couldn't see anything, and someone said at this time: "Didn't the officers and soldiers come in?" ā
Okay! This sound detonated the chaos and slashing among the soldiers of the entire Yellow Turban Army camp. It's dark anyway! No one can see whom. They were slashing at each other.
Once this chaos is mobilized, it will be difficult to quell it.
Seeing that it had had had the desired effect, Jin Dun turned around and retreated to the back with the sixteenth battalion, and began to quietly look for a place where the grain was stored.
It wasn't until Peng Quan rushed to the barracks with his guards carrying torches that this chaotic scene was stopped. However, more than 30 percent of the soldiers have been hacked to death by their comrades, and more than 70 percent of them have been injured.
Besides, Xu Chu and the others rushed through the city gate, took the torches from the city gate, and lit all the torches that had been prepared. Illuminate the ancient city as if it were daylight. He led the troops directly to Peng Quan's military camp, set up a position, and blocked Peng Quan's army in the barracks.
blocked Peng Quan in the barracks so directly, can Xu Chu get Peng Tuo's military rations? Will Peng Quan fight with Xu Chu to break the net? What did the ironclad do with the soldiers of the seventeenth battalion? The following story coffee will be covered in the next chapter.
