Yuan Shao Barracks.

In front of the battle, there were still neat sergeants, cavalry, archers, shield soldiers, pikemen, and melee shortsword soldiers were waiting for the battle.

It was noon the next day. For the whole morning, the other party confronted each other like this. Yuan Shao, who had a complete superiority in troops, had no intention of attacking, and Xu Rong, as an opponent, naturally did not take the initiative to attack.

After yesterday's attack, Xu Rong did not take advantage of it in the slightest. As an overseer, Ushisuke had also seen it with his own eyes, so he was not required to attack immediately, and the battle became a stalemate.

"Lord, after staying up for a while, you can send troops to attack as planned." Yuan Shao's side, a man wearing a robe, a slightly chubby body, and a righteous face said.

This person is Tian Feng, the character Yuan Hao, one of the famous strategists in the Three Kingdoms period.

Because of his uprightness, he is not very liked by Yuan Shao. It's just that after going to the battlefield, I will listen to him, after all, this is a talented person.

"Hmm. What Yuan Hao said is good, just wait for a while. Yuan Shao also nodded lightly, with a confident expression.

Last night, he also rested very late, discussing how to deal with Xu Rong and Niu Fu.

The strength of the army has an absolute advantage, and the confrontation in a small fight is obviously not what Yuan Shao thinks, and only by defeating the opponent in one fell swoop can he show his ability.

In this regard, Yuan Shao summoned several strategists with the army last night to ask questions.

Among them, Tian Feng made a move, that is, to use paralyzing careless thoughts to make the opponent lazy, and then strike with all his strength at a critical time, and strive to solve all the problems in a battle.

Tian Feng's method was quickly adopted by Yuan Shao, and there was a confrontation between the two armies in the morning, which seemed to be peaceful. In fact, in secret, Yan Liang and Wen Chou had already brought two thousand elites each to the left and right of Xu Rongjun, and just waited for the general attack order to attack them in groups.

Zhang Chao used to deal with Fan Chou, so that the other party could give up a strong resistance, which was also because Zhang Chao himself didn't want to fight for both sides, and it was also the reason for the lack of troops.

Replaced by Yuan Shao, he really didn't want to let go of Xu Rong, this person had defeated Cao Cao and Sun Jian respectively, if he was defeated in his own hands this time, wouldn't it be equivalent to saying that he was stronger than them? Therefore, in this battle, he wanted to completely annihilate the Xiliang soldiers, so he would retreat the last, that is, Xu Rong's rear also arranged a general, which was Gao Lan.

Gao Lan, a Gao Huan. In history, he fought with Xu Chu and Xu Huang without winning or losing, which shows the high strength of his people.

This time Gao Ran was put to use by Yuan Shao, and appeared last night, and the same two thousand soldiers were sent to the rear of Xu Rongjun, responsible for cutting off his way back.

Yuan Shao came to Hongnong with 30,000 troops this time, which can be described as a large number of soldiers and a huge momentum. It's just that so many soldiers are not all elite, at least half of them are among the old and weak, and many of them can't survive because of the war, so they join the army and want to eat.

This time, most of the 2,000 soldiers Gao Ran brought were in this column.

Speaking of which, it's no wonder that Gao Yan, compared to the degree of proximity, he is far inferior to Yan Liang and Wen Chou's status in Yuan Shao's heart, and naturally he can only pick up the leftovers when he picks up troops.

Even so, Gao Ran still did not have the slightest reluctance, but rushed to the rear of Xu Rongjun with two thousand weak soldiers overnight, completing the last step of outflanking.

At this time, it was already in the afternoon, and it was about to get dark in more than an hour, and it was time to launch a general attack.

Yuan Shaojun's side was ready to attack with all his might, and Xu Rongjun did not have anything to do at this time because of the one-day confrontation, and he was in a relaxed mood. Even Niu Fu said that Yuan Benchu was a timid person, and he was afraid of the Xiliang soldiers, so he didn't dare to take the initiative to attack, when Taishi Dong Zhuo was in Luoyang, this person was as timid as a mouse, and he still is.

Even so, it would be better to have this time to confront here than to go back to sleep. In this way, Niu Fu took a thousand Xiliang cavalry back to the camp to rest.

However, Xu Rong still held the original with the 2,000 infantry who could be instructed. He always had a feeling that Yuan Shao should not be a timid person.

Xu Rong had been vigilant until he heard the sound of war drums, and he was shocked and got on the horse with his sword.

I thought that Yuan Shao couldn't bear the loneliness and wanted to fight for a while. I didn't want to get on my horse and look, but I saw the enemy army in front of the black press, and there were ambushes on the left and right rushing out.

"Oh no, I've been tricked!" Seeing this, how could Xu Rong not know that Yuan Shao was about to launch a general attack? At the same time as he hurriedly shouted, he asked someone to inform Niu Fu, and he himself stood ready to resist.

In any case, you can't mess with yourself, if you run away now, I'm afraid you'll be defeated.

The two generals used by Yuan Shao's frontal army were Zhang Jaw and Gao Gan; On the left is Yan Liang; On the right is Wen Chou. The four generals came over with countless soldiers and thunderous forces. Xu Rong's face was still fearless, allowing the other party to approach him, and then he himself stood with a knife.

Compared with Xu Rong's righteousness and awe-inspiring, Niu Fu, who was woken up from his sleep, knew that Yuan Shao had launched a general attack and had already buried an ambush, his face changed drastically, and after getting off the horse under the protection of his own soldiers, he turned around and fled, and fled without fighting with a thousand Xiliang cavalry.

Niu Fu's actions made some Xiliang infantry see it, and they immediately became panicked. For a while, they also fled in all directions, which evolved into Xu Rong only taking 2,000 infantry to deal with Yuan Shao's tens of thousands of troops.

"General, General Niu fled, and some of the other infantry also fled." A personal soldier beside Xu Rong stepped forward and whispered.

"Hey! Have they all escaped? Xu Rong couldn't help but sigh after hearing this. At the moment when the great enemy is supposed to unite as one and unite with the outside world, what is such an escape? Is this the work of a brave general?

After the pro-soldier reported, he wanted to wait for Xu Rongxin's order, but he didn't see any order coming out, so the pro-soldier couldn't help but say, "General, why don't we run away too." ”

"Yes. If it's not that I'm so cowardly and afraid of death, I really have no chance of winning at all, and now that Niu Fu has fled, who knows what he will say when he sees Taishi? Why don't we go back and at least confront each other in person. Another soldier chimed in.

"Yes. Even if we die, we will die with dignity, not so unclear, and we will have to bear grievances. Another pro-soldier spoke.

More than a dozen pro-soldiers, in the end, one person spoke, and their opinions were surprisingly the same, that is, they could not die unjustly in battle.

Xu Rong, who had already had a certain heart of death, was a little moved at this moment. Yes, even if you die, you have to die, like now, after dying in battle, you don't know what bad things Niu Fu will say, even if that's the case, it's better to run away first and think about it in the long run.

Thinking like this, Xu Rong stood on his horse and shouted: "Okay, I'll listen to everyone, let's rush out and rush back to Chang'an City to seek justice." ”

"Okay, follow the general and rush out." More than a dozen soldiers shouted.

At this time, Yuan Shao's army was surrounding, and when he was about to surround them all, Xu Rong led his own soldiers to kill them from the small gap that had not formed an encirclement.

Talking about Niu Fu, he rushed all the way with thousands of Xiliang cavalry and thousands of infantry, running for seven or eight miles in a row. I thought I was going to get rid of the pursuers, but I didn't think about it, and a group of soldiers wearing Yuan Shao's military uniform suddenly appeared in front of me, starting with a high-character flag fluttering in the wind.

"Oh no, there are ambushes here, too." Seeing that another wave of enemies appeared and were still in his way, Niu Fu said in shock.

"Fight." Qu Chang, the Xiliang cavalry who escaped on the side, gritted his teeth and said.

"Okay." Niu Fu nodded, this is really no way, even if there is no way to escape, there is only one way left. "Xiliang warriors, come with me to kill them?"

Niu Fu, who shouted loudly, rushed over with a thousand cavalry and more than a thousand infantry to Gao Ran.

Gao Ran has only just arrived here, after all, if he wants not to be discovered by Xu Rong and them, he needs to go around in a big circle. Before the physical strength has fully recovered, you suddenly have to fight with others, which is unwilling.

But he also had no choice, as the last ambush soldier, if he couldn't block Niu Fu, it would be tantamount to dereliction of duty.

"Brothers, there are many of us, don't be afraid of them, kill!" Gao Ran had no choice but to find an excuse and shouted at the two thousand soldiers behind him.

The number of people is not superior, the face is cavalry, the overall quality of the sergeants is also a little poor, and so on and so on are the reasons why Gao Ran does not have an advantage. Fortunately, Niu Fuben had no intention of working hard, but just wanted to fight his way out and escape by himself, so that he could stand in an invincible position first.

The sergeants on both sides were spurring, and then collided in the middle of the road. Although Gao Ran, as the main general, took the lead and slashed several Xiliang cavalry with a long knife, but in the end, due to the weakness of the follow-up, he could not cooperate with more soldiers, and finally only led a few soldiers to kill dozens of Niu Fu cavalry, and after more than 400 infantry, he let the enemy slip away from him.

Niu Suke, who escaped, didn't expect things to go so smoothly. Originally, he thought that he would still need a bloody battle, but now most of his strength is still there, and if he even turns back to fight, he may still be able to defeat Gao Ran.

Of course, Niu Fu, who had already been killed, was so scared that he didn't have the courage to kill the horse pistol again, and what he wanted most now was to return to Chang'an City as soon as possible. At that time, when he meets Dong Zhuo, he will put all the blame on Xu Rong. Anyway, Uncle Yue didn't believe in this person, so he could say anything.
