Chapter 406: The End
20,000 armored iron cavalry followed and crashed into the enemy thicket, and the enemy army was even more confused.
Seeing this, Kebi quickly ordered the 200,000 cavalry on the left and right wings who were fighting to immediately break away from the outflanking Han army, and he tried to annihilate these tens of thousands of Han troops and kill LΓΌ Bu.
Whining...... The horn sounded loudly, and the soap carving flags on both sides of the big hat waved outward. The 200,000 cavalry on the two wings that were fighting in the melee immediately broke away and outflanked the rear of the Han army. At this moment, the city gate was opened, and Huang Zhong led 100,000 hussars out of the city, divided into two armies on the left and right, and met the opponent's 200,000 cavalry on both wings.
The horses of both sides showed their riding and archery skills, and the rain of arrows flew in the air, and the knights of both sides fell one after another. Boom, the two war horses collided together, the Xianbei people howled and waved their scimitars, the Han warriors roared angrily and stabbed their spears, and the battlefield was fierce, and blood flew all over the sky.
The 40,000 cavalry of Long Tao's army finally broke through the barrier of the Xianbei front army and joined their general. There were no words between the two sides, and a single eye made contact. After the convergence, immediately turn around and break through.
Kebi could see that the Han army was about to break out, and hurriedly ordered the Chinese army to fully press up. 200,000 Chinese troops howled and rolled in waves.
40,000 cavalry embraced their general to break through the siege, first rushed into the city, followed by 100,000 hussars also broke away from the battlefield and rushed into the city.
The Xianbei cavalry wanted to take the opportunity to seize the city and rushed to the drawbridge under the city gate. On the city wall, Jia Xu shouted: "Release the arrows!" Tens of thousands of crossbowmen, many heavy bed crossbows, fired together, dense rain of arrows and locusts rushed down the city, the Xianbei people under the city gate immediately fell a large piece, and the Xianbei people on the drawbridge were shot into the moat one after another.
The Xianbei army hurriedly retreated. At this moment, the city gate slammed shut, and the drawbridge was pulled up at the same time.
Zhang Lang turned over and dismounted, staggering, and the soldiers around him hurriedly stepped forward to help, with a worried look on their faces. Zhang Lang smiled: "It's okay! It's just a little tired! All the soldiers laughed.
"General! General! ......" Thousands of people knelt down around him, and everyone wept bitterly for their adopted son. An old man in front of him hugged his fists with great emotion and said: "I, the grass people, how dare we let the general's golden body take the risk to save us?" Zhang Lang stepped forward to help him up, and said with a smile: "After all, I'm just a soldier!" If a soldier can't protect the people, what face will he have! β
The old man said excitedly: "I'll wait, I don't know how to repay the general!" β
Zhang Lang glanced back, "Just remember the soldiers who died outside the city just now!" Then he turned and went up to the wall. Thousands of people bowed three times to the voice on the city wall, and then led the way to the camp to the south.
Zhang Lang climbed the city wall, and all the soldiers saluted together. Jia Xu said with some annoyance: "The lord is too reckless! If the lord has three longs and two shorts, wouldn't it make these countless Li people have nothing to rely on! Zhang Lang said apologetically: "It's my fault!" Mr. Wenhe has learned a lesson! β
Jia Xu smiled bitterly and sighed, "I know that if the lord encounters such a thing again, he will definitely do it again!" β
Zhang Lang couldn't deny it, and said gratefully: "I thank Wenhe so much, if you hadn't dispatched the hussar corps in time to respond, and suppressed the enemy army with a large number of bows and crossbows, I would be in big trouble!" Jia Xu said: "This is a matter within the subordinate's responsibility, and I don't dare to be the lord of the word!" β
Zhang Lang smiled, walked to the battlement, looked out of the city, and saw that the Xianbei people had retreated like a flood in the ebb tide, and frowned: "The Xianbei people have temporarily retreated, but the more cruel war is still to come!" β
Zhang Lang returned to the office, took off his blood-soaked robe, went to take a bath in the pool in the backyard, changed into a set of dry civilian clothes and came to the hall. At this moment, Jia Xu and Chen Gong have been waiting for a while. When the two saw Zhang Lang, they clasped their fists together and bowed: "General." β
Zhang Lang walked to the top, sat down, and frowned: "Our army's situation is not optimistic now, and the northern part of the state is in mourning, and millions of Xianbei people are overwhelming us!" We can't just defend, we have to turn defense into offense! β
Chen Gong hugged his fists and said: "I just received an urgent report from the east, Xun Yu has led an army of 700,000 out of Dai County, and has fought several battles with Erdan Yu Budugen, and the two sides have won and lost each other, and the battle is stalemate!" β
Zhang Lang pondered: "Although Cao's army is 700,000 out of the fortress, most of them are infantry troops, and there are not many cavalry, so I am afraid it will be difficult to gain the upper hand!" β
The two military divisions deeply agreed. Jia Xu said: "Cao Cao's army may not be able to be counted on!" We're on our own! Chao Zhang Lang hugged his fists and said: "Lord, we should hurry up and implement the strategy we formulated before!" Zhang Lang nodded.
At this time, Yang Kun rushed in, hugged his fists and said, "General Qiyu, Miss Cai Yan has escorted the grain and grass baggage here." As soon as the words fell, Cai Yan, who was dressed in men's clothes, rushed in, although he was dusty, he could not hide his delicate color. As soon as Cai Yan saw Zhang Lang, his eyes immediately lit up, "Big brother." β
Zhang Lang hurriedly got up, walked to Huan Cai Yan, glanced at her, and said softly: "It's been hard all the way!" β
Cai Yan's heart was happy. Thinking of the matter, he hurriedly hugged his fists at Zhang Lang and said: "Big brother, little sister has brought 600,000 loads of grain and grass and a large amount of ordnance and materials!" β
Zhang Lang smiled, "In this way, the Xianbei people don't want to capture Jinyang!" β
Cai Yan asked curiously: "After I entered the city, I heard everyone talking about the eldest brother riding alone to charge into battle, and also said that the eldest brother saved many ordinary people, what is going on?" β
Zhang Lang smiled: "It's nothing. Then he asked, "What have you seen and heard along the way?" Cai Yan sighed, "Countless refugees! That scene reminds me of when Dong Zhuo moved the capital! Then he smiled and glanced at Zhang Lang, "Fortunately, the eldest brother ordered the government to take proper care of the refugees along the way, otherwise, I really don't know what kind of miserable situation they will have!" Zhang Lang sighed, "In the end, I'm still incompetent!" I actually let the alien race come in! β
Cai Yan hurriedly said: "Big brother doesn't need to blame himself!" Today's Xianbei is far stronger than the Huns of the past! At that time, Emperor Wu was strong, and he was repeatedly defeated in the early days of development, but in the end, very few Mobei almost wiped out the Huns! I absolutely believe that the eldest brother will one day sweep through Mobei and avenge all the people who died in vain! β
Zhang Lang nodded. I can't help but have some doubts in my heart: In my memory, Xianbei at this time seems to be far less imposing than it is now? It seems that more than 100 years later, when the Wuhu was in chaos, the grassland people had such a powerful power! Is it because I, the butterfly that broke into this era, has changed everything? Zhang Lang felt that only this explanation made sense.
