Chapter 104: Yuan Peng's death

Yuan Peng relied on the speed advantage of the cavalry to decisively charge the Yellow Turban soldiers.

In the face of the menacing Suzaku cavalry, the Yellow Turban soldiers held sickles and spears in their hands, and dozens of people formed a circle, and when the Suzaku cavalry killed in front of them, they immediately dispersed, leaking out the thistle terrestris that surrounded them in the center.

Tribulus terrestris is a kind of military iron spike spreading obstacle in ancient China, which is scattered on the ground to delay the enemy's movement. Some of the thistles have holes in the center, which can be connected with ropes for laying and collection.

The Suzaku cavalry, who couldn't stop the momentum of the charge, could only ride their horses from the ground covered with thistles.

After stepping on the thistle, the horses of the Vermilion Bird Cavalry couldn't bear the pain and kept jumping and shaking, and many of the Vermilion Bird Cavalry fell from their horses and fell to the ground, and they were also pierced by the iron thistle on the ground.

Yuan Peng and some of the Suzaku cavalry with superb riding skills were fortunate to escape the catastrophe, but the remaining Suzaku cavalry suffered, and a large number of Suzaku cavalry fell from their horses and were shot to death by the Yellow Turban soldiers who had been waiting for a long time.

And the Yellow Turban soldiers who had just scattered and fled quickly gathered in one place at this time, fiercely pounced on the surviving Suzaku cavalry.

The Yellow Turban soldiers were also very black, and they attacked the horses of the Suzaku cavalry, using the barbs on their sickle guns to break the horse's legs, so that the knights on the horses fell down, and finally they made up for it with one shot.

The 500,000 Vermilion Bird Cavalry, under the "shameless" style of the Yellow Turban soldiers, lost almost half of their men and horses, and the surviving Suzaku cavalry were all wounded, and even Yuan Peng himself was stabbed several times.

Yuan Peng, who was completely beaten out of the fire, didn't care that he had saved his strength, and roared, "Brothers, avenge our dead brothers!" Kill! ”

Just when they were about to start the second wave of sprints, the familiar fragrance of flowers came again, this time Yuan Peng asked this fragrance of flowers was not only uncomfortable, but the wounds on his body also became extremely painful, and his brain became heavier and heavier, and finally his eyes were black and fell to the ground from the horse.

The rest of the wounded Suzaku cavalry were also like Yuan Peng, and after smelling the fragrance of flowers, they were stunned and dismounted.

Tens of thousands of Suzaku cavalry with no wounds on their bodies were not affected by the fragrance of flowers, but they were no match for the 100,000 Yellow Turban soldiers armed with scythes and guns.

After a fierce battle, tens of thousands of Suzaku cavalry were all martyred, and none of the 500,000 Suzaku army fled from the formation, and all of them were destroyed.

According to Zhang Jiao's pre-arrangement, Ma Xiang, the pistil guard, did not leave any prisoners, and ordered all the people to be killed, and the Vermilion Bird general Yuan Peng was also cut off by Ma Xiang himself and hung outside the big array.

In the Suzaku army formation in the distance, Yuan Yang, who had been waiting for a long time, saw the Yellow Turban Army hang Yuan Peng's hand out, his face changed greatly, and a mouthful of old blood spit out directly.

"Handsome! Handsome! ”

Seeing this, several Suzaku generals around Yuan Yang hurriedly stepped forward to support Yuan Yang, who was about to fall at any time.

"My Peng'er! Zhang Jiao old thief, you kill my nephew, I am inseparable from you! Come on, gather my troops and horses and fight me! Yuan Yang roared.

Ma stepped forward and pressed Yuan Yang's shoulder and said, "Lao Yuan, calm down, you are the commander of the first army, don't be rash, I look at the Yellow Turban formation is extremely weird, we must not act recklessly." ”

Ma Yi's words calmed down the excited Yuan Yang, and he sighed and said, "Alas, it's all my fault, if I want to be fully prepared and let Peng'er break the formation, Peng'er won't die, it's all my fault." ”

"Okay Lao Yuan, things have already happened, don't blame yourself first, now our first problem is to discuss how to break the formation, I just went through all the ancient formations, and I have never found a formation similar to this formation, it seems that this Zhang Jiao is indeed a talent." Ma couldn't help but sigh.

"So what do we do now? You can't continue to spend time with the Yellow Turbans here. Yuan Yang asked.

Ma shook his head and said helplessly, "As you saw just now, our 500,000 army was wiped out before it entered an hour, which is enough to prove that this array is extremely dangerous, and we still need to think about it in the long run." ”

"Think long-term?" Yuan Yang said with a wry smile, "Don't forget, before we set off, we made a military order with those people in the court, and within three months, we will definitely break the Yellow Turban Army and recover all the lost territory. ”

After hearing Yuan Yang's reminder, Ma patted his head and said, "Oh, I'll forget about this stubble then, but within two days, we will break this big array that we have never encountered, I feel that this must be a little difficult." ”

"No matter how difficult it is, I have to break it for him, what do you all think, talk about it." Yuan Yang glanced at the Suzaku generals around him.

All the Suzaku generals who were swept by Yuan Yang lowered their heads, not daring to look at him, after all, they had encountered such a tricky big array, and no one could think of a good way for a while.

"Isn't there a general in my Suzaku army who can share the worries of the commander?" Yuan Yang couldn't help but raise his voice upward.

Seeing that there was still no response, Yuan Yang said a little angrily, "Aren't you usually quite brave?" At the critical moment, they all wilted, didn't you speak? What a bunch of rubbish! ”

"That, Marshal, I have a solution."

At this time, a weak voice came from his side, Yuan Yang turned his head to look, and saw that it was Li Bad who raised his hand and said loudly.

"What can you do?" Yuan Yang asked eagerly.

Li Bad said, "Don't we still have Zhang Liang's trump card in our hands, Marshal Yuan?" After all, he is also one of the Yellow Turban Triumvirate, and I believe that he must have a way to crack this formation. ”

"yes, how did I forget about him." Yuan Yang hurriedly ordered someone to summon Zhang Liang over, and then said to him, "An Lehou, the time has come for you to make meritorious contributions, you should know the formation of the Yellow Turban Army opposite." ”

Zhang Liangding looked at it and found that it was his eldest brother's last hole card Wanhua Array, which was an advanced formation that the eldest brother would not use until he had to do so.

It is conceivable that the situation of the eldest brother must be not good now, Zhang Liang pretended to think about it for a while, then got up and looked at Yuan Yangdao, "I'm sorry Marshal Yuan, I really don't know much about the formation, and I really can't help with breaking the formation." ”

Then Zhang Liang turned around and was about to leave, but Li Bad didn't give him this opportunity, and directly ordered someone to block Zhang Liang's way and prevent him from returning to the camp.

Zhang Liang, who was stopped, looked at Li Badly and said very unhappily, "I said General Li, what are you doing here?" Anyway, I'm also a marquis, you don't have the right to detain me at will. ”
