Chapter 83: Annihilation of the Seventh Army
Pang De knew that if he continued like this, he was most likely in the rhythm of defeat, but in the panic, he shouted: "The army obeys the order and rushes out!" ”
Guan Yu saw that this guy was not confronting him head-on, but he ordered the few military horses under his command to rush out, Guan Yu snorted coldly: "The light of rice grains also shines?" Surround these remnants with me, and don't let any of them go! After speaking, he led his guards to gallop and galloped straight to Pound's more than 1,000 horses.
Pang De is also a fierce general, and the long knife in his hand is also extremely sharp, although it is not as powerful as Guan Yu, it is also a master of using a knife, and his technique is more flexible than Guan Yu, and it is very efficient to harvest life.
Guan Yu saw that Pang De was not fighting with him, so he simply did not chase him, but led a group of guards to attack the back of Pang De's horse team, where many armor soldiers were protecting a comatose general, Guan Yu subconsciously felt that he must be an extremely important person, and he was even more ruthless.
Pang De knew that he couldn't protect the forbidden, so he sped up his horse to break out of the encirclement, seeing Guan Yu's back to him, but his heart was cold, he put the knife in front of him, took out the bow behind him, pulled the arrow on the wind, and flew out with a swift arrow, heading straight for Guan Yu's back heart.
A guard on Guan Yu's side seemed to notice Pang De's methods, and flew forward to push Guan Yu, but the feather arrow still shot an arrow on Guan Yu's shoulder, Guan Yu was in pain, and the glaive knife almost let go, but it was unbearable, and said coldly: "Take down the team in front!" ”
Most of the guards were divided and went straight to the group of men, and the large number of Jingzhou soldiers quickly cut down the group of knights and captured the general who protected the lord in the middle.
Pound snorted coldly. led more than 1,000 elite horsemen under his command to take advantage of Guan Yu's arrows to kill through the encirclement. Heading straight to the north of the city, the horses of the horse team were extremely fast, and few people could stop them.
Pang De led more than 1,000 cavalry all the way to the north to raid, never looking back, and went straight to his own camp dozens of miles north of the city. Pang De ran all the way, looking back all the way behind him, most of the Jingzhou troops were foot soldiers, and there were few cavalry pawns.
On his side, the man dressed as a general of the First Army followed Pang De on horseback and asked for instructions: "General, General Yu has been captured." What should I do? ”
Pang De shook his head helplessly: "Our army was defeated and lost, these tens of thousands of armor soldiers are only more than 1,000 on my side, and there are 5,000 men and horses in the camp north of the city, what else?" I can only stay here and wait for the prime minister to send reinforcements again! ”
The general also sighed helplessly. These more than 1,000 people were all hung with colors, and even some of the soldiers were left outside Xiangyang City, but they only arrived here with their subtle riding skills and firm will.
Pound felt very guilty. Not only did his strategy not capture Xiangyang, but it made people lose nearly 20,000 military horses, which was a newly recruited soldier from the prime minister's family. Alas, thinking of this, Pound also sighed slightly, although the commander of this army is forbidden, and his own suggestions can only be implemented with his consent, but in the end he is the proposer of this strategy. And the key thing is that Yu Ban has been captured, and it is very likely that this guy is going to die in Jingzhou. At that time, I am afraid that if I am held accountable, I still won't be able to escape.
Pound galloped all the way, and after an hour, finally, the camp was also within the field of vision, and Pound decided that there were still more than 5,000 military horses left, and it was also worthy of a battle, maybe he still had a chance to turn the tables. Thinking of this, Pang De's heart perked, and the speed of the war horse under his crotch was a little faster under the whip of his horsewhip.
When Pound arrived at the camp, he saw that the camp was very quiet, which was very different from the past, and there were no sentries in front of the camp, but the camp under the bonfire was very strange.
Pound subconsciously sneered: "Withdraw!" It's greasy! ”
"Is General Pang leaving?" A loud female voice echoed in the empty camp, and after a while, Pang De saw a heroic female general in a blue robe and white armor, with a snow horse in her crotch, and a cold iron long knife in her hand that made people shudder. Although the opponent was a woman, Pound felt a hint of coldness.
Pang De was just about to turn around and leave, but he heard a loud laugh behind him: "Feng'er is naughty and tight, and the frightened huge general is about to turn around and flee!" ”
Pound turned his head slowly, but he took a breath of cold air, where did he have a way to escape at this moment, there were shadows in the dark night behind him, and there were figures everywhere.
Pang De turned around again, but saw that the female general also drilled out countless Jingzhou soldiers behind him, the number should be thousands, but the people and horses behind him echoed each other, and faintly blocked his way.
Pound complained bitterly in his heart, and he only cared about running back, but he forgot the possibility of the enemy attacking the camp. Looking at the Jingzhou soldiers around him, there were a large number of them, and Pang De knew that he couldn't escape, but the long knife pointed at the general behind him, and said coldly: "Do you dare to fight with me?" ”
The general slowly rode out of the night to the range of the bonfire, looked at Pound with disdain, and sneered: "I have heard for a long time that Xiliang Pound has some ability, and when I see it today, it's just that!" ”
Pound was extremely ashamed and angry when he heard this, turned his horse's head, went straight to the future, and neighed coldly: "Piff, dare to underestimate me and eat me!" ”
The general slapped the war horse under his crotch, flew forward, and took out his blade, and was about to engage in battle: "Liao Hua, a general under the command of General Guan, will be you for a while!" ”
The female general in the distance smiled and said: "Uncle Liao, retreat, such a character doesn't need you to make a move, see Feng'er finish him!" ”
Before the words fell, Guan Feng came on horseback, and the Jingzhou soldiers behind him were afraid that this aunt and grandmother would make a mistake, and there were many war horses who also followed suit.
Pang De sneered in his heart, and he was not afraid of this female general, a woman should have a husband and children at home, how could she go to the battlefield, and his mouth was even more arrogant: "Hmph! If you want to die, Ben will fulfill you! But he let Liao Hua go and went straight to Guan Feng.
Liao Hua was tied to one side, standing on the horse, without the slightest intention of worrying about Guan Feng, you know, Guan Feng is facing Pang De, one of the world's famous generals, who is a good hand with a knife.
Guan Feng was a phoenix, and he watched Pound rush towards him for a long time, and Pound was accumulating strength on the knife, as if he was going to swallow Guan Feng alive and peel him alive, which was extremely hideous and terrifying.
Guan Feng also strangled the war horse at the moment of leaving the camp, Pang De thought that the enemy general must be intimidated by his own momentum, so he did not dare to confront himself, and even clamped the horse's belly and urged the war horse. At this moment, Pang De felt that his body was light, and the war horse under his crotch seemed to be out of his control, and even the man and the horse fell into a small pit.
Guan Feng reined in front of the pit, but saw Pang De lying in the pit, very embarrassed, and whispered: "Someone!" Tie up this fallen general! ”
"Despicable!" Pound said coldly. Guan Feng smiled and said, "General Pang is mighty!" We are not the general's opponents, just a little trick! ”
Pound fell into the hands of others, and he had nothing to say, so he had to give in.
When the cavalry under Pound's command saw that they were about to be captured, they were in chaos, some rushed forward to save people, some were panicked and didn't know what to do, and some panicked to escape.
Before Guan Feng could speak, the armor soldiers on his side stepped forward together, picked up the crossbow machine, and shot all the knights who intended to resist in a row, and the remaining armor soldiers who were wandering at this time all abandoned their weapons and dismounted to surrender.
It turned out that Guan Yu saw that the enemy army was pouring out of the nest, and he expected that the enemy's lair would be empty, so he immediately decided to divide the troops, and divided more than 10,000 military horses led by Liao Hua and Guan Feng to attack Cao Jun's Dazhai and find an opportunity to capture the Cao army who fled back.
But it might as well be that there was a big man like Pang De, the deputy general of the enemy's Seventh Army, who fled back, and even fell into Guan Feng's strategy hastily, and fell in front of the Jingzhou army without much effort.
At this moment, in Xiangyang City, the Jingzhou army has already cleaned up the battlefield, and the Cao army, which has stubborn resistance, has been cleaned up by the Jingzhou army. In this battle, more than 25,000 troops and horses of the seven armies of Yu Ban and Pang Tong were killed, wounded or captured by Guan Yu's army.
In the battle of Xiangyang City, nearly 10,000 Cao's troops were captured, more than 5,000 Jingzhou troops were killed, and 3,000 people fled with their lives. Most of the soldiers left in the enemy's camp were old and weak or soldiers who had just experienced the battle, but these 5,000 men and horses collapsed in an instant under the attack of Guan Feng and others, except for a few who escaped and thousands were killed, more than 2,000 were captured.
