Chapter 72: The Decisive Battle against Sun Jian (5)
In Xu Rong's opinion, Dong Shouye's martial arts are definitely not as good as his father Dong Zhuo, but what he didn't expect was that Lao Tzu was a hero, and he was better than the blue. This Dong Shouye's martial arts are even higher than those of his father Dong Zhuo, but Dong Zhuo is more important than strength, and Dong Shouye is more important than speed and skill.
After Dong Shouye joined the battle with heavy cavalry, the trend of one-sided in the whole battle became more obvious. At this time, the left flank led by Li Dao and Zhang Liao had successfully defeated the opponent, and the tactical task of detouring to Sun Jian's back was completed.
In the blink of an eye, Dong Shouye's 50,000-strong army had completed the encirclement of Sun Jian's 80,000-strong army.
Now Sun Jian is the real defeat is like a mountain, the shape is out of control, and there is no power to return to the sky.
Now Dong Shouye commands the army to eat away at the opponent little by little, and the cavalry on the left and right wings are also killing and injuring the opponent little by little, just like cutting meat with a blunt knife, although it is not fast, but it hurts very much, and there will be a time when the meat will be cut.
Now Sun Jian doesn't have the high-spirited spirit he had at the beginning, and he is depressed, but a generation of heroes is a generation of heroes, even if the situation is so erosive, Sun Jian still hasn't given up, he is still struggling, and making his last efforts.
But God didn't fulfill people's wishes. Maybe the only thing Sun Jian wants to do now is to find a way to break through, but how can it be so easy to break through in the current situation, he should be surrounded by the opponent in a triangle, and the opponent has been constantly crushing himself and compressing his living space.
After another period of time, Dong Shouye faction ** shouted: "Surrender and don't kill, if you are willing to surrender, immediately put down your weapons, raise your hands, and kneel on the ground." ”
At present, the morale of Sun Jianjun's army has collapsed, and there is no possibility of reunion, it can be said that the general trend has gone, and Dong Shouye's shouts of surrender are all over the place.
Sun Jian saw that the general trend had gone, and he even wanted to die at this moment. But he still made the last effort, secretly concentrating the elite around him, ready to wait for an opportunity to break through.
At this moment, Dong Shouye doesn't want to see Sun Jian break through, this guy wants to kill them all, and directly kill the surname Sun in this battle, forever get rid of future troubles, and save any little overlords, Wu Hou and other Eastern Wu secession regimes in the future.
But man is not as good as heaven!
Although Dong Shouye's wishful thinking played well, it was not realized after all. That's because of the appearance of a person. This person Dong Shouye also knows, and it is Sun Jian's long history of public hatred.
At the critical juncture when Sun Jian was constantly compressed and surrounded and was about to be besieged, this guy took some henchmen to block the attack of Dong Shouye's men, and created conditions for Sun Jian's breakthrough, and won a chance.
After all, Sun Jian is a veteran general who has been on the battlefield for many years, and seeing that the opportunity is fleeting, how can he not seize it, so he glanced at his long history with tears in his eyes, and then broke out with his subordinates without hesitation.
Seeing that his lord took advantage of the opportunity he had won to desperately break through, Gong Qiu Cheng felt a little relieved in his heart, he felt that everything he did was worth it, and he rose up again to block the enemy who attacked him, in order to buy more time for his lord.
Gong Qiu said that he was originally Yuan Shu's subordinate, but after being deployed to Sun Jian's subordinate, he was convinced by Sun Jian and slowly became Sun Jian's henchman, so he would have such an act of death today.
Finally, the throat of the public vengeance was pierced by a foreign object, and it was Zhang Liao who did it, and he couldn't live when he saw it. There was no painful expression on the face of the public enemy, but his face was full of relief when he saw that his lord had broken through.
True righteous people!
Dong Shouye saw that Sun Jian had already led some men and horses to break through, and many soldiers of Sun Jian's army also took advantage of this glimmer of vitality and tried their best to escape. Dong Shouye also felt very helpless about this, there were too many uncontrollable factors on the battlefield, especially when there was a dead soldier like Gong Qiu Cheng. Originally, I still fantasized that I could wipe out the Sun family's army, but now it seems that there is no hope.
Sun Nugran is a small and strong character, and his vitality is extremely tenacious.
Seeing that Sun Jian had already broken through and left, Dong Shouye no longer thought nonsense, and commanded his subordinates to strangle the recalcitrant Sun Jian's subordinates with all their might, and let his subordinates be divided into many thousand-person combat teams to screen out the diehards on the battlefield. These countless thousand-man clans were like a big sieve, combing the battlefield over and over again, until no one resisted on the battlefield.
In addition, Dong Shouye arranged for people to organize cavalry that still had spare strength to pursue Sun Jian. So under the leadership of Zhang Liao, 5,000 cavalry were organized to continue to pursue Sun Jian.
A big battle was fought from morning to night, the battle was very fierce, the armies of the two sides fought fiercely for a day, Dong Shouye finally commanded more than 50,000 foot cavalry to successfully defeat Sun Jian's more than 80,000 foot cavalry.
The army under Dong Shouye's command has not stopped since the beginning of the war, and most of the soldiers have not even drunk saliva. Although the army has won and its morale is unstoppable, the soldiers can really be said to be sleepy.
Even so, Dong Shouye still began to actively carry out the finishing work after the war with Jia Xu and Xu Rong. Fortunately, Dong Shouye has also experienced a major battle to defeat nearly 100,000 people in the Baibo Army before, and the commander at that time was Dong Shouye's second brother-in-law Niu Fu, who was naturally very attentive to his brother-in-law. There is also the old fox Jia Xu is also by his side, this guy is even more inscrupulous and has excellent wisdom, so he is also very helpful to Dong Shouye.
Dong Shouye can be said to be non-stop after the war, and he is very busy. For a while, it is to count and count the consumption of various materials in the battle, the loss and casualties of personnel; After a while, I went to visit the wounded soldiers, bandage the wounds of the soldiers with my own hands, and say all kinds of warm words to the soldiers, and do all kinds of actions to buy people's hearts.
However, it was said that Zhang Liao led 5,000 cavalry to chase Sun Jian all the way, wanting to take advantage of the situation to break Sun Jian's village and rob all kinds of grain and grass in his village.
Originally, Dong Shouye's army was stationed in the west of Yangcheng and east of Liang County, a place called Negative Millet Gathering, which is a town, this place is adjacent to Yingshui, and the army is very convenient, and Sun Jian's army is stationed in a place called Yixiang on the southwest side of Negative Mill Gathering, the two armies are about forty miles apart, and the battlefield of the decisive battle is in an open place between Negative Mill Gathering and Yi Township, which is very suitable for the development of large-scale troops.
