Chapter 42: Riding the Victory
"Filial piety!" , Yuan Shu poked his head in from outside the carriage and looked at him with an expectant look, the battle ahead made him eager to try and impatient, but he was a little worried about Li Kai's current situation, so he came to inquire;
Li Kai nodded: "Be careful!" The Xiliang army is brave! In this battle, we have taken a big advantage to gain the upper hand so easily, and we can't underestimate the enemy, they are not the rabble of the Yellow Turban Army! Follow Ji Ling!··· Rest assured! I'm fine! ”
"Hey, hey! Good! I'll let Sword Master Wang protect you! I went! Driving ——! Yuan Shu is like a wild horse that is happy, he commanded a few words, turned around and rushed up with hundreds of people, Yuan Shu, who participated in the Battle of the Yellow Turban, is also a person who has been on the battlefield, and he has felt the blood on the battlefield, he is now boiling!
Yuan Shu was a little overexcited, and Ji Ling beside him was a little distressed, carrying a three-pointed two-edged knife and following Yuan Shu inch by inch, with open guns and hidden arrows to guard, but it was really hard for him, he couldn't kill the enemy happily, he was not a general, he could only be regarded as a guard!
"What about reinforcements? Where's the reinforcements? The Xiliang army, who was still fighting to the death with hope, shouted sadly, even if their throats were broken, Ma Teng and Han Sui would not come to the rescue, they had already run away, and they had already abandoned them;
The more the Xiliang rebels fought, the more panicked they became, especially the Han army's current posture was to swallow them in one bite, how could they not be afraid? The main leader of the kingdom, as well as the happiest Li Xiangru who jumped around, were all beheaded, who is the last hope of the Xiliang rebels?
Huang Yan! Former Jiuquan Taishou, he is now the most famous and powerful person among the rebels, everyone is waiting for him to ascend to the top and shout, and fight to the death with the Han army! What is this awesome bastard doing now?
In his own words, the Han army is like a wolf and a tiger, who dares to take the edge? Ma Teng and Han Sui estimated that they had already run away, and now someone happened to be blocking the Han army for me, so when would they wait if they didn't run at this time?
When the Xiliang Army saw the yellow characters fluttering in the distance and retreated backwards in the wind... Desperate! The army was self-defeating, some surrendered on their knees, some directly threw away their armor and ran away to reduce their burdens, all kinds of things, anyway, no one was fighting;
"Our army has been carrying out tail tactics for several days, and the army is tired, so now continue to pursue, do you think it is appropriate?" Seeing that the military flag was falling and the soldiers were running all over the ground, Huangfu Song knew that the Xiliang rebels had gone, and the last bit of courage they had finally condensed had been defeated by a few foolish leaders, so he came to inquire about Li and asked him to help make a decision;
Like a dead dog, Li was about to stick out his tongue, stretched out his head, and said: "The victorious army is not outnumbered, why should the defeated army be afraid of it?" ”
In a concise sentence, Huangfu Song has a judgment, losing Han Sui's command, the Xiliang rebels under the command of Ma Teng really have nothing to fear him, the only pity is that Han Sui and Ma Teng must have run away, and his chance to be ashamed this time is gone;
"Those who descend will not be killed! The stubborn ones will be cut by a thousand cuts! Huangfu Songhu roared and rode forward, and as he went, he ordered Bao Hui, one of the Bao clan's Shuangying, to lead 15,000 men and horses to gather the surrendered rebels and camp in place to take care of these people, turning this place into a hub to connect the soldiers and horses of Zhang Wen who followed behind;
Jiuquan Taishou Huang Yan took the lead in running away The negative impact is powerful, the Xiliang rebels are almost scrambling to escape, those with horses are riding, those without horses are grabbing horses, there is chaos, those who can run away will never stay, and those who can't run away kneel on the ground and start an ostrich...
"Public! Daiei! Gather soldiers for me and hunt down Huang Yan! Damn! The big fish are not caught, and the small fish are going to be caught! Sun Jian scolded and shouted, the whole look of a war maniac, fanatical and irritable;
Zu Mao shouted as he swung his spear to kill the rebels, "My lord! The troops are scattered! Can't assemble! There are too many rebels! ”;
Hearing Zu Mao's complaint, Sun Jian took a look, the soldiers around him were staggered, although the rebels fled, and the Han army pursued and killed, but the formation had long been scattered, and there was no unified command at all, and the excited soldiers had already pursued independently...
At this time, if the rebels have an ambush, it doesn't take too much, only 5,000 people, it will definitely be able to recover the disadvantage, and the Han army will definitely be overwhelmed by the rebels like a sea of people, and finally annihilated, Sun Jian frowned, and a mocking smile bloomed at the corner of his mouth, as if mocking the rebels;
"Don't worry about that! Raise the banner of Lao Tzu! May the nature that follows me come! Give me chase! Sun Jian didn't care about his feet, Zu Mao's complaints, he was full of confidence or domineering, his legs were clamped, the war horse man stood up, and once again rampaged in the crowd and galloped quickly;
"Look what! Let's go! Huang Gai wiped a handful of blood from his face, erected the big banner in his hand, Sun Zi's banner rattled, keeping up with Sun Jian's pace, Zu Mao wanted to say something in the end he was depressed and held back, picked up the spear and followed without hesitation;
"Don't kill prisoners! Don't kill prisoners! Is your words as General Ben? Dong Zhuo commanded the soldiers to pursue while forming a team of supervisors... This overseer is used to collect the surrendered soldiers, and it also has the meaning of restricting the soldiers from doing anything to the surrendered soldiers;
In Dong Zhuo's eyes, these captured soldiers will eventually be transformed into his subordinates and used to enhance their own strength, how can they be killed at will? Therefore, when he saw someone wielding a knife against a soldier who had surrendered, he was furious and shouted loudly;
Li Ru, who was closely following him, hurriedly stopped his father-in-law: "Lord! Don't get angry! The main thing at present is to keep up with the footsteps of the vanguard troops Hua Xiong and Sun Jian as soon as possible to surrender, otherwise after the rebels are scattered, the opportunity will be wasted! ”
Li Ru has always been pragmatic, and his reasons are also based on interests, Dong Zhuo also took this set, glared at the soldier fiercely, restrained his anger and ordered the reserves under his command that had not yet been dispatched to hurriedly disperse and outflank, constantly gathering the routed troops, and forcing them to surrender;
From Hanyang County to Longxi County, and then to Jincheng County, the rebels only hated their parents for giving birth to two legs, and the Han army was chasing them like wolf dogs chasing rabbits, and they couldn't rest for a moment... The pursuit lasted until the Han army in the area of Wuwei County stopped expanding its gains and reorganized;
In this battle, the Liangzhou rebel army of 1340,000 people, except for the 50,000 soldiers and horses taken away by Han Sui and Ma Teng, was almost wiped out, and the Han army beheaded more than 15,000 people and surrendered nearly 70,000 people! Kill the leader of the kingdom, accomplices Li Xiangru, Huang Yan and other large and small leaders dozens of people, the results are brilliant!
It's a pity that Han Sui and Ma Teng took advantage of the time their allies bought for them to run to Zhangye County and Jiuquan County, recruit troops, and put on a stubborn posture...
In any case, this was a great victory, which severely shocked the heroes of Xiliang, ended the situation of Xilianghao's rebellion at every turn, and re-established the prestige of the Han court, which had a far-reaching impact from a political point of view;
The imperial court also rewarded him for this, and he was not stingy...
