Chapter 52: The Iron Cavalry Rushes

Outside Puyang City, the 200,000 Yellow Turban Army led by Peng Tuo set up a company camp that stretched for more than 30 miles. Although Peng Tuo fought bravely, he was born as a peasant after all, and he had not read military books and battle strategies, let alone the method of using soldiers.

Therefore, although Peng Tuo had an army of 200,000, he had no choice but to fill Puyang City, which only had 3,000 soldiers, and could only fill it with human lives again and again. Attempt to take the city by the most brutal and simple method.

But there is also a big problem in doing this, that is, it is easy to work without success, the so-called sharpening the knife does not cut the wood, but Peng Tuo did not sharpen the knife, but directly took the blunt knife to chop wood, so Peng Tuo couldn't help but not take the city, but made the troops very tired.

In the darkness of the night, the Yellow Turban camp of hundreds of thousands of people was almost silent, as if it were an empty field.

Suddenly, several agile black shadows quickly climbed onto a lookout, and in the hazy sleepy eyes of the Yellow Turban Army on duty at night, these black shadows quickly killed all the soldiers on duty at night. The whole movement is extremely smooth, and it can be seen that these people should have been trained more systematically.

The same thing happened not only on this one lookout, but at least fifteen Yellow Turbans were killed at the same time. Two or three hundred Yellow Turban sergeants died in their sleep, never to wake up.

A black shadow in the lead beckoned, and more black shadows quietly appeared from the shadows, and these people quickly crossed this section of the wooden village that was already unattended at an extremely fast speed, and then disappeared into the night.

"Damn", Peng Tuo, who tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, scolded angrily and sat up from the bed at once. After looking at the half-naked woman sleeping next to her, Peng took off interest.

"It's still the woman of this rich and noble family, hahaha", Peng Tuo laughed darkly, recalling the scene of breaking Liaocheng and snatching out this woman a few days ago, and sang the national anthem of Liu Jin's later generations somewhere in his body.

"It's still handsome and happy, how can it be like us, we have to stand here in the middle of the night to blow the wind, it's really fucking more popular than the dead", a Peng Tuo personal guard who guarded the handsome tent heard the beautiful sound in the tent and muttered softly.

"What are you muttering? Beware of Lao Tzu pumping you", next to this person, a strong man who looked like a small leader heard his complaint, glared at him, and was about to fight.

When the man saw Shi Chang glaring at him, he shrank his head in fright, and said with a smirk: "It's nothing, nothing."

"Stand on your post well, otherwise Lao Tzu will really whip you kid" Hearing this, Nashi Chang smiled, and continued.

"Yes, yes, yes" Before the man finished speaking, he saw a sky-high fire burning in the distance, and he was stunned at that time.

The chief was staring at him, and suddenly saw that his expression was different, and hurriedly followed his gaze to the north.

It didn't matter what I saw, but I saw that the northern camp was burning with a fire that soared to the sky, and half of the sky reflected by the bright light of the fire was red, as if it had been burned red by the fire.

"It's not good, the Puyang defenders have attacked the camp", this thought suddenly flashed in Shi Chang's heart, and he hurriedly ran to the tent. While running, he shouted: "Dashuai, it's not good, it's not good, it's not good."

Peng Tuo was working hard, and when he heard the words, he scolded angrily: "Damn, Lao Tzu is fine!" What's wrong".

"The enemy, the enemy attacked the camp"

Before the man finished speaking, he heard an earth-shattering cry sounding from the west and south sides of the camp at the same time: "Oh no, it's water, put out the fire." It's noisy, but it's loud.

It doesn't matter this time, Peng Tuo immediately withdrew from the 'battlefield', grabbed a scarf and covered it to the vital part. In a hurry, I didn't realize that this was actually a woman's gauze skirt.

"Quickly, order all battalions to quickly put out the fire, and the Yellow Turban Lux and the Heavenly Guard will assemble immediately."

As soon as Peng Tuo's words were finished, a louder shout came from the east: "Kill."

At the same time, the earth seemed to be frightened by this shout, and it trembled uncontrollably, and the trembling amplitude became larger and larger, so that Peng Tuo was a little unsteady on his feet.

"Report to the commander, a Han cavalry entered the camp"

"Report to the marshal, the western, northern, and southern camps caught fire at the same time, and the army bombed the camp."

"Report to the commander, the western, northern, and southern camps were attacked at the same time, and our army could not resist and was dispersing."

Bombing a battalion, also known as a startling camp or battalion roar, is usually manifested as a sudden assembly of troops without receiving an order, which is a very abnormal action. However, under abnormal circumstances, such as being attacked, walking in the water (that is, on fire), etc., the army will panic, and the soldiers will run blindly and randomly, which is very easy to cause a special phenomenon of stampede or the collapse of the entire army, which is a situation that will cause huge losses and heavy costs.

As soon as he heard that the troops had bombed the camp, Peng Tuo immediately became anxious and hurriedly asked, "How is the barracks of the Tianwei Army and the Yellow Turban Warriors?"

Peng Tuo knew that these two troops were the elite in his own hands, and once they also bombed the camp, the problem would be serious.

"No, the Heavenly Guards have been assembled, and the Yellow Turban Warriors have also gathered 20,000 people." The scout said again.

"Kill Pengtuo!" The shouts of killing that shook the heavens and the earth came from far and near, approaching the Chinese army camp.

"Quickly pass the order, send the Heavenly Guards to come over to guard the big tent of the Chinese army, and the Yellow Turban wrestlers will meet the enemy", Peng Tuo was also startled, and immediately ordered when he heard the words.

Putting on his armor indiscriminately, Peng Tuo quickly got out of the handsome tent. As far as the eye could see, most of the battalion, which stretched for dozens of miles, had already fallen into a sea of flames, and the surging flames quickly swept through nearly half of the battalion with the help of the southeast wind that blew up at some point, making the Yellow Turban Army, which had already bombed the camp, even more chaotic.

"It's over, it's all over", seeing this, Peng Tuo was confused and muttered.

"Hey, Peng Tuo thief, Gongsun Zhan of Liaoxi is here, come and give the head quickly", Gongsun Chan shouted, leading nearly 4,000 elite cavalry, and rushed into the camp of 20,000 Yellow Turban wrestlers.

The feathered arrows kept falling, killing hundreds of people in the blink of an eye. To add insult to injury, the cavalry arrows composed of Gongsun Zhan, Zhang Liao, and Meng Yong quickly broke through the front-line position of the Yellow Turban Lux with a momentum like a bamboo.

Gongsun Zhan's horse lance, Zhang Liao's green dragon halberd and Meng Yong's plum blossom bright silver spear were like three deadly blades, heading straight for Peng Tuo, who had just occupied the handsome position, and the three of them were closely followed by the iron-blooded sons of the three thousand battles.

"Brethren, there are 200,000 enemy troops behind you, and you will live or die if you advance. When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins! Kill" Liu Jin broke off and led the last elite - the Yanmen Iron Cavalry to kill it.

More than 5,000 riders were like meteors piercing the night sky, and like a table knife cutting through cream, quickly and smoothly penetrating the defensive line of the Yellow Turban Lux.

The elite like the Yellow Turban Warriors, in front of this combined cavalry unit, was like a baby facing an adult strong man, and was divided in two by no power to fight back.

"The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, the year is in Jiazi, the world is auspicious", a deafening cry came from the mouth of the three thousand heavenly guards, and the voice was resolute and unyielding.

This elite infantry force, which was fully equipped with leather armor, wooden shields and spears, met the elite cavalry of the Han army with an absolutely inferior force. With its high morale and the bravery of fighting in the sea of corpses and blood, it withstood the impact of the Han cavalry head-on.

"Quick, order the Yellow Turban Lux to outflank the Han army from the rear, and the Tianwei Army will resist me", Peng Tuo roared angrily and quickly gave the order.

"Peng Ge, the commander of the Beiying Canal, led an army of 15,000 to come to the rescue"

"Xin Hao, the commander of the South Battalion, pacified the South Camp and is leading the army to help"

"Outside the big camp, the Han army has come to reinforcements again"

An urgent report came from the mouth of the scout who came at a gallop, and quickly passed to Peng Tuo, which doubled Peng Tuo's confidence in holding the Chinese army camp.

On the other hand, on the Han army, due to Zhang Liao and Meng Yong's excessive rush, they have already entered the camp of the Tianwei Army, while Gongsun Zhan and Baima Yicong and other troops have gradually slowed down their horses because the resistance of the Tianwei Army is too fierce.

In front of the Tianwei Army, the Han army of more than 3,000 cavalry was like waves crashing on the beach, and they were killed in battle one after another, and hundreds of casualties were soon lost. Not only that, but due to the large number of dead people and horses on both sides, the roads have begun to block, and the speed of the impact has slowly begun to weaken.

Under the leadership of Liu Jin, more than 1,000 Yanmen iron cavalry began to charge, and the loud and high-pitched military horn sound was endless.

"Heyero led five hundred cavalry to assist Gongsun Chan from the flank, and the rest of the brothers came with me," Liu Jin gave an order, leading the most elite 1,000 cavalry to begin to attack the formation of the Heavenly Guard head-on.

With Liu Jin's order, a thousand sharp throwing guns came quickly. Although it was blocked by a wooden shield, the Tianwei soldiers were still violently put down by hundreds of people. These people, without exception, were shot to break the wooden shield, and then they were pierced by the three-foot-long spear, and their deaths were extremely miserable.

But it was the death of these hundreds of people that made the originally very tight Tianwei formations flawed. It was this faint flaw that suddenly created an opportunity for the Yanmen Iron Cavalry to charge into battle.

I saw Liu Jin's dragon Qingtian halberd sweep through the thousands of troops with one move, instantly swept away the five Tianwei soldiers, and then led Qianerlang to kill the Tianwei army that had already appeared flaws at the moment when the last spear could be landed.

The high-speed galloping war horses and the cold and murderous three-edged iron spears were like the last straw that broke the camel's back, quickly disintegrating the camp of the Heavenly Guard. (To be continued)
