Chapter 34: Unpredictable Outcome (Part 2)

"Whoosh!" The sound of breaking the air in mid-air roared.

The moment the cavalry of the Northern Army approached the gun array, a group of cavalry suddenly threw out the short spears in their hands with all their might, and the powerful short spears roared in, suddenly penetrating the gun array soldiers who were waiting in battle.

The hot blood splashed up, some Xiliang soldiers were nailed to death on the spot, the cavalry pulled the bow and shot arrows one after another, the arrows roared, and a group of Pu sword soldiers with shields suddenly stepped forward to protect the spearmen under the shield, the arrows were dense, and there were still not a few people who fell to the ground with arrows for a while.

Some Xiliang soldiers wanted to pull their comrades who were hit by arrows into the shield, but they just moved, and were suddenly stabbed into their bodies by falling arrows and fell to the ground softly.

Xu Rong held a shield in his hand, and the war knife in his hand danced, blocking some of the arrows in front of him, and personally stepped forward to supervise the battle, seeing that the main general personally supervised the battle, the morale of the Xiliang army soared, and soon the entire gun array was lined up again.

The archers of the Xiliang Army also fought back one after another, and for a while, the sound of arrows breaking through the air was constantly heard in the sky, and the soldiers on both sides continued to scream that someone was hit by an arrow and fell to the ground.

The war horse suddenly rushed into the gun array, and the blood plasma burst in an instant, and the sharp tip of the spear penetrated the body of the war horse or knight, the war horse neighed, and suddenly fell to the ground.

At the same time, under the strong impact of the advance of the war horses, the sternums of the Xiliang soldiers standing in the front row were shattered, and they fell to the ground one after another.

Although the cavalry charge of the Northern Army was slow, after paying great sacrifices, the Xiliang Army front was slowly torn open, and the condescending cavalry brandished their swords, stabbed with guns, and constantly harvested the lives of the soldiers of the Xiliang Army.

Although the cavalry of the Northern Army occupies an absolute advantage, and it is unstoppable to rush back and forth in the crowd for a while, but the Xiliang army that followed Dong Zhuo into Beijing is all elite, and the trapped beasts are fighting more and more bravely, and they all sacrifice their lives to rush to the cavalry and jump up, and suddenly rush the cavalry off the horse.

The Pu Dao soldiers gathered around immediately stepped forward and cut the fallen cavalry into meat sauce without hesitation, and at the same time, the infantry of the Northern Army also followed, and quickly broke through the formation, and came towards the Xiliang Army.

Suddenly, the horn sounded, Xu Rong ordered the whole army to retreat for the first time, and a group of Xiliang troops who were entangled with the northern army turned around and fled, the northern army took the opportunity to cover up, and the Xiliang army lost its armor and fled in embarrassment, and there were military flags and blades scattered everywhere on the ground.

A group of northern soldiers stepped forward to snatch the spoils of war, and even some cavalry dismounted to join them, and some soldiers of the northern army made up for the wounded soldiers of the Xiliang army who were dying and had not yet died, and did not hesitate to kill the soldiers, and cut off the heads of the dead soldiers of the Xiliang army and hung them on their waists for future military merit.

Yang Yi hesitated in his heart, seeing Xu Rong defeated in embarrassment, he always felt that winning was too simple, this Xu Rong was really the famous general in the late Eastern Han Dynasty who defeated Cao Cao and Sun Jian in the historical record? It seems that historical accounts are not always true.

Seeing that the embarrassed fleeing Xiliang army was scattered, and the army was obviously defeated, for Yang Yi If he wanted to defeat Dong Zhuo, he had to get rid of Xu Rong, not to mention that this was all the main force of Dong Zhuo's entry into Beijing, if he eliminated them all, Dong Zhuo would be a toothless tiger, and he would no longer be able to shake the Beijing division.

Looking at the nearly 10,000 Northern Army around him, under such a powerful force, all conspiracies were useless, Yang Yi no longer hesitated, and ordered the whole army to pursue as soon as possible.

Xu Rong led the defeated army to flee all the way, seeing Yang Yi chasing after him, he immediately ordered the whole army to form a military formation to forcibly block the offensive of the northern army.

Such terrain is very suitable for cavalry combat, Xu Rong plans to fight here with his back, presumably it is also a helpless move, otherwise he will be followed and killed by the cavalry all the way, and the loss may be greater.

Under Yang Yi's order, the cavalry of the Northern Army rushed forward brazenly, and at the same time, nearly two hundred Xiliang troops, carrying a special shield one person high, suddenly stepped forward with a long spear and short knife, and Xu Rong led the rest of the troops to flee quickly towards the distant mountain range.

In Yang Yi's view, these Western Liang troops were all victims used to delay the offensive of the Northern Army, and the one-sided slaughter and successive victories made Yang Yi gradually complacent, and his original fear of war was much lighter.

When the cavalry of the Northern Army rushed to the Xiliang Army, a special shield about one person high suddenly pierced into the ground, nearly a hundred shields formed a circle, and a group of two people resisted to form a large-scale shield array.

The war horse rushed up, and it was impossible to break through the shield array, and when the cavalry of the Northern Army was at a loss, suddenly a spear was pierced out of the shield, and more than a dozen cavalry around had no time to react, and were instantly stabbed off the war horse by the spear, and the spear entered the abdomen, bringing out a large piece of flesh and blood.

The cavalryman who fell to the ground and whimpered crawled on the ground, and the blood stained the ground red like a spring, only to see a cavalryman who was pierced in the abdomen, stuffing the intestines turned out into the stomach with all his might, and soon lay on the ground motionless.

Suddenly, several horses rushed from afar, each war horse was tied to the tail of the car ** small block of iron thistle, the cavalry rode over, the iron thistle took advantage of the situation and slammed it on the shield, with a loud noise, the tiger mouth of the Xiliang armor warriors in the shield array cracked, and suddenly fell to the ground.

The cavalry with the thistle terrestris rode back and forth to throw up their horses, and were soon smashed by the shield one after another, at this time, many Northern Army infantry troops also arrived one after another, and stepped forward to kill the stubborn Xiliang Army, and many Northern Army armor soldiers shouted loudly with their bloody heads that had just been cut off.

At this moment, there was a scorching smell in the air, perhaps because the rich bloody aura was too dense, and this scorching aura was masked instead.

Yang Yi looked around, there were soldiers of the Northern Army who were snatching the spoils of war everywhere, and in the endless wilderness at a glance, there was no trace of the Xiliang Army at all.

"Not good!" Yang Yangyi was shocked in his heart, he had thought that although Xu Rong was a famous general, but in such a short period of time, there was only time to set some traps, not to mention that Xu Rong had been defeated one after another, and Yang Yi had doubts about Xu Rong's ability.

But now it seems that Xu Rong has prepared a 'big gift' for Yang Yi, and it has been proved that it is fatal to underestimate the opponent at any time.

Yang Yi firmly believed that Xu Rong had previously paid a heavy price to resist the Northern Army at the cost of losing his troops and paying a heavy price, just to set a trap here, maybe Yang Yi's plan to attack and kill Dong Zhuo had been leaked earlier, but it was no longer important.

The only thing that is certain is that Xu Rong is not retreating, nor is he defending, but intends to completely annihilate the northern army led by Yang Yi, whether it is the gun array formed before, fighting with the northern army with all his might, or the two hundred dead soldiers at this time, all in order to buy time and lead the northern army into the trap that has been laid out long ago.

"Give the order to go down, discard all baggage and withdraw quickly!" Yang Yi shouted eagerly, his original calm expression had long since disappeared.

Before Yang Yi's words fell, suddenly there were more than a dozen piles of weeds shaking in the distance, and if you looked closely, it was actually Sergeant Xiliang lurking around with the weeds, and at the same time that Yang Yi found these people, more than a dozen people suddenly got up and lit the fire arrows.

"Shoot them!" Yang Yi yelled eagerly at the officers beside him.

The northern army hurriedly shot arrows, and the cavalry casually dropped the spoils, turned over and rushed towards the more than ten Xiliang troops, but the Xiliang army took a step faster, ignited the rocket for the first time, and shot towards this side with a full bow.

The fire arrows roared, and all the Northern Army soldiers stood in place, even forgetting to escape, and watched in amazement as the fire arrows fell to the ground in the sky.

With a series of crackling sounds, the fierce fire suddenly burst out, and there was a crackling sound of flames burning the weeds everywhere in all directions, and the fire borrowed the wind, and the thick flames quickly invaded this side, and the northern army in the center of the fire looked at the fires all around, and fled in a hurry.

The smoke was billowing and the flames were monstrous, and many soldiers of the Northern Army had no way to retreat, and rushed into the fire one after another, hoping to be lucky enough to rush out, but unfortunately the moment they jumped into the flames, the clothes of the whole body suddenly ignited, the hair disappeared instantly, and the whole body burned in the thick flames.

On the wilderness, the screams of infiltrating people continued to come from all around, and the dazed and helpless Yang Yi looked at the increasingly scorching flames around him, his eyes were full of fear, the crazy flames continued to rise, and the Northern Army armor soldiers who were on fire were rolling on the ground while shouting frantically.

Yang Yi watched countless armor soldiers being devoured by the flames, although the surrounding aura was scorching, Yang Yi's heart was cold, looking at those soldiers of the Northern Army who were bitterly shouting that their mothers were burned to death, Yang Yi's whole body trembled, and his eyes were red.

It's all over, not to mention fighting Dong Zhuo, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to escape today, under the absolute superiority, he was actually hit by Xu Rong's counterattack and trapped in a Jedi, Yang Yi regretted in his heart, he didn't have to die, but he had affected nearly 10,000 Northern Army.

At the same time, the surrounding flames burned towards this side, and the war horse under Yang Yi's crotch was suddenly frightened, and the dazed and helpless Yang Yi was thrown down in an instant, falling heavily to the ground, and the war horse ran into the distance, and was quickly engulfed by the fire and disappeared without a trace.

Just when Yang Yi was disheartened and helpless, he suddenly rushed out from the side, and the person who came was Junhou Luliang.

"My lord, lie on your horse as much as you can!" Lu Liang didn't say much, and hugged Yang Yi, who was almost paralyzed and lying on the ground, to the horse, although he only had a short speech, it was like the warmth of Sanchun, which made Yang Yi, who was originally disheartened, have a desire to survive.

The fire became more and more violent, the teeth and claws were like ghosts, Yang Yi even seemed to have a hallucination in front of his eyes, watching countless Northern Army armor soldiers being engulfed in flames, Yang Yi suddenly found himself in the flames, as if it was real and illusory.

It seemed that there were scorching flames constantly attacking in all directions, Lu Liang, who was riding his horse with all his might, gritted his teeth, and the sweat caused by the severe pain dripped on the back of Yang Yi's neck, and he felt pain in his heart for a while, and tears burst the embankment in an instant.

Suddenly, the temperature dropped suddenly, and there was only the sound of horses' hooves stomping on the ground, Yang Yi looked around blankly, really unsure whether this was reality or a dream.
