Chapter 470: Huge Pockets
Guangchang City was crumbling under the onslaught of the Xianbei people, and the Cao army suffered heavy casualties, and it was almost to the limit. Finally, with a loud bang at the city gate, the already dilapidated gate collapsed, and the Xianbei people shouted excitedly up and down, and tens of thousands of war horses rushed in. Cao's army retreated into the city and fought fiercely with the Xianbei people, but because they were outnumbered and suffered heavy casualties, they could not hold it, and more than 1,000 remnants fled from the city under the leadership of Li Dian.
Kebi can enter the city surrounded by the army, looking at the already dilapidated city walls, and can't help but sigh with emotion!
Wan Qi channel: "This must be the most elite unit of the Cao army, and now it has been almost wiped out by us, and the next battle should be simple!" β
Kebineng nodded approvingly, and ordered: "Order all the armies to rest for a day!" The generals agreed in unison.
β¦β¦
That night, Kebineng and the leaders of the generals gathered in the hall of the square to drink wildly, in everyone's hearts, sweeping Youzhou Jizhou is just around the corner, after these days of fierce battles, Cao Jun's will must have been destroyed!
Outside the hall, the moon is like washing, and the dew is cold and the wind is light. The city was full of hustle and bustle, and the Xianbei people were scattered in the streets and alleys, or groups of three or five, or groups of eight or nine, drinking and shouting around the campfire. There was not a single common man in the city, because before the war, Cao's army had already transferred all the people of Guangchang.
A fast horse galloped from the north to the city gate, reined in his horse and shouted: "I have an urgent military situation to see Da Shan Yu!" The officer who guarded the gate took a torch and shone it, recognized it as his herald, and immediately ordered the gate to be opened. The heralds galloped in and did not restrain their horses until they reached the gate of the palace. The herald turned and dismounted, and ran into the gate to the upper part of the hall. At this moment, Kebineng and all the leaders and generals were already a little drunk.
The herald hurriedly reported: "Da Danyu, Liucheng is lost!" β
There was an instant silence in the lobby. After a long time, a general shouted, "This is impossible! How could Liucheng be lost? Who can take down Liucheng? "All the generals and commanders shouted one after another, thinking that Liucheng was in the rear of the army, how could it be lost! Everyone shouted and scolded the herald for falsely passing on the military information, and some even drew their knives to kill the herald.
The herald hurriedly said, "What the minions said is true! Liucheng is really lost! It's Lu Bu's army coming! β
Everyone looked at each other. A general stepped forward, kicked over the herald, pulled out the whip pinned to his waist, and struck him on his head and face, scolding as he scolded: "I'll kill you stupid horse with nonsense!" The heralds screamed and the people around them laughed, as if they were out of shape.
While there was a commotion in the hall, a scout rushed in, and was stunned when he saw the scene in front of him. The general stopped the beating, pointed his whip at the scout who had just rushed in, and shouted, "What is the matter with you?" β
The scout hurriedly made a chest salute to Kebineng, "Da Danyu, the big thing is not good, the main force of the Cao army has appeared thirty miles to the south!" The flag of the Chinese army is written 'Prime Minister Cao of the Han Dynasty'! β
Everyone was stunned, and a general laughed wildly: "Cao Cao really doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, and he actually rushed to send him to death!" Standing up, he made a chest salute to Kebineng, "Da Shan Yu, please allow me to lead a strong army to destroy them!" β
Wan Qitong asked the scout: "How many soldiers and horses did Cao Cao bring?" β
"Very much! It is estimated to be no less than 300,000! β
The general who had asked for battle before said contemptuously: "In my eyes, it's just 300,000 sheep!" Big Order, please let me fight! β
Kebi Neng felt that Cao Junxin's morale must have been greatly affected by the new defeat, and he should be able to win a complete victory, so he said to the general: "Tuoba Rong, I will give you 100,000 war horses, I hope you can play a triumphant song as soon as possible!" If you can bring up Cao Cao's head to see it, I will make you the third single Yu! Everyone showed envy and jealousy, and Tuoba Rong promised loudly and ran down.
Kebineng glanced at the herald who was still kneeling in the hall, frowned, pointed at him, and said in a disgusted tone: "Drag this guy who is still kneeling in the hall and cut it down!" The herald was shocked and shouted urgently: "Da Danyu, what the slave said is true!" The minions don't dare to say half a lie! Two strong guards came up and unceremoniously lowered the herald, and the herald's pleas for mercy quickly faded away, and finally came to an abrupt end!
Kebineng let out a long breath, "It's finally quiet!" He raised his glass and said, "Come, come, let's keep drinking!" β
No one believed that LΓΌ Bu's army was coming, but LΓΌ Bu's army did. After Huang Zhong's vanguard troops captured Liucheng, the next morning, the main force of more than 800,000 led by Zhang Lang arrived, and the army was crawling on the ground like a few handsome dragons, unable to see the end at a glance, the banner covered the sky and the sun, and the ears were rumbling like thunder, which was the movement of more than 800,000 horses walking.
The army came to a halt in Liucheng.
Zhang Lang immediately convened the generals to discuss the strategy of marching.
Zhang Lang decided that the Yingyang Army of Ma Teng would hold the Great Wall along the Ma Teng line to form a trend of closing the door and fighting the dogs, and ordered Ma Chao to be the commander and lead the Blue Wolf Legion and the Barbarian Army to march into Sanggan County in the southeast to cut off the retreat of the defenders of the city, while Zhang Lang himself led the Longtao Legion, the Hussar Legion, the Leopard Tao Legion and Altay's 150,000 Xianbei Army to Lingqiu County to cut off the retreat of the enemy army in Guangchang.
The order was given, the army was in flames, the army immediately moved, and the two dragons rolled away to the southeast and south respectively!
The gaze turned to Guangchang.
Kebineng and the leaders of the generals were waiting in the hall for Tuobarong's good news.
Soon after, everyone saw Tuoba Rong, who was covered in blood and wolf, come in! Everyone was taken aback. Corbineng asked, "You, what's the matter with you?" β
Tuoba Rong knelt down with a plop and said with a look of shame: "Da Danyu, our whole army is annihilated!" Everyone only felt a thunderbolt explode overhead, and they didn't turn around for a long time. Kobi was very annoyed and asked, "What the hell is going on?" Tuoba Rong swallowed his saliva and told him what had happened. It turned out that Tuoba Rong led an army of 100,000 to meet Cao Jun in the starry night, trying to defeat Cao Jun and capture Cao Cao in one go.
However, when they saw the Cao army, the Cao army had already formed a battle formation, with 200,000 infantry legions in the center, and 100,000 war cavalry on the left and right wings.
Tuoba Rong didn't take it too seriously, and immediately ordered the army to rush and kill. In the unique horn sound of the Xianbei people, 100,000 war cavalry monsters screamed and surged away. Crashing into the solid defense line of Cao's infantry army, the people turned on their backs, and no matter how they attacked, they could not tear through the defense line at all. At this moment, the Cao army's shield defense line suddenly opened, and nearly 10,000 extremely majestic war horsemen wearing heavy armor cloaks and tiger-faced helmets rushed out, and the most elite tiger and leopard war horses of the Cao army charged!
The Xianbei people were caught off guard, and they were killed so that they turned over on their backs and turned into chaos. At this time, nearly 100,000 cavalry on both flanks of Cao's army launched and attacked the Xianbei people from both flanks and rear. The Xianbei people could not resist, and they were killed all over the field with rivers of blood, and finally Tuoba Rong escaped from the siege with only 2,000 horsemen, and the 100,000 army was wiped out.
Kebineng listened to Tuobarong's narration and almost fainted.
