Zhao Hong climbed the beacon tower, stood on the beacon tower, and looked at the Han army camp in the distance. After looking at it for a long time, he frowned and said to himself, "Strange, why is there no movement?" ”

At his feet were the corpses of Han soldiers, and even the clods of soil on the beacon tower were stained with blood. In the capture of this beacon tower, the Yellow Turban Army led by him actually paid the lives of more than 200 soldiers, and when the entire beacon tower was finally captured, not a single Han soldier surrendered, and all of them died in battle.

This made Zhao Hong feel relatable, and he saw the big from the small, and the Han soldiers on the top of a beacon tower were like this, not to mention the Han soldiers in the entire Han army camp. The thought of facing such a number of enemies made him feel a heavy pressure in his heart, like a mountain weighing him down, especially now, after he sensed that something was wrong, this pressure was magnified.

If it was an ordinary day, this kind of calm in the Han army camp would be reasonable no matter what, and it would not make Zhao Hong anxious. But today, now, this calm at this moment has become a very abnormal thing. Because General Digong and General Rengong are leading the army to raid the Han army camp from behind the Han army camp! It was so calm, he couldn't say anything, Zhao Hong's eyes couldn't penetrate the fog to see the situation in the Han army camp, but he had ears, and his ears didn't hear any movement. And even the Han soldiers stationed outside the fog were so calm and calm, not at all like what the big camp should be when it was raided.

He and Bo Cai, both of whom led an army of 8,000 people, came to make a feint to attract the attention of the Han army. And if there is an opportunity, attack the Han army camp head-on, and attack the Han army camp together with the Yingchuan Yellow Turban led by General Digong and General Rengong. But now, after Zhao Hong's careful observation, he suddenly found that the attention of the Han army camp did not seem to be on their side, but even so, he and Bo Cai did not have a chance to storm the Han army camp, because the Han soldiers they were facing were in a state of alert at any time.

Attacking, I am afraid that the army led by him and Bocai will suffer heavy losses, and they may not be able to attack it. There were six towers like the one at his feet, and all he had captured were the three towers in the outermost form. Bocai was on the right side, and did not participate in the operation to capture the beacon tower, and judging by his actions, he had been approaching the Han army camp, giving the Han army continuous heavy pressure.

Now in front of Zhao Hong, there are only two ways, one is to continue to carry out the orders issued by the great sage and good teacher, continue to feint the Han army camp, and create opportunities for the Yellow Turban Army on the Yingchuan side. The other is based on his hunch and the clues observed on the battlefield, and he came to the conclusion that he went around the Han army camp and went to their back to rescue the Yingchuan Yellow Turban.

The palm of his hand pressed on the stack of soil on the beacon tower, Zhao Hong unconsciously pinched it hard, and quickly grabbed a piece of soil and smashed it in his palm. A little bit of mud and sand, flowing down from between the fingers, was carried by the wind, and there was no trace of it.

Soon, Zhao Hong made a decision, and he chose the latter. "Pass my order, 500 people stay at the beacon tower, and the rest of the army will follow me around the Han army camp. In addition, send a team of scouts to inform Bocai of the movements of our army and let him be careful himself. ”

"General Zhou, the Yingchuan Han army is attacking from behind, and General Rengong orders you to wait for the retreat and convergence, and concentrate on breaking the siege."

The scout on horseback galloped to Zhou Li's side, quickly finished this short sentence, did not give Zhou Li any chance to ask, and soon continued to move towards the next target that needed to convey orders. All that was left was Zhou Li, who could not hide his loss on his face.

He led the army to retreat step by step, and the Han army pressed forward step by step. He didn't have much to do about the sword wall gun formation on the opposite side, especially under the command of the Han general on the other side, he had a well-founded advance and retreat, and there was no weakness at all. Zhou Li led the army to attack several times, but he was unable to break through the shield wall and gun array, but suffered heavy casualties, and had to choose to avoid its edge.

As long as Zhou Li chooses to attack, the shield wall will be separated from it, and the pikemen will come out, and the spears will stab at the attacking Yellow Turban soldiers. Dense and neat, there are hardly any gaps, and even if one spear suddenly breaks, the other spears will come as promised.

A round of stabbing out, when the force is exhausted, this is not over, just when Zhou Li feels that there is an opportunity, there will be a new pikeman to take over, take a step from the back, pass the pikeman in front, and stab the spear forward. Zhou Li led the army to approach, and he hit his face with grass again, and many Yellow Turban soldiers died.

Let the archers continue to shoot arrows, and the Han saber and shield soldiers are back in front of the pikemen, their shields resisting the rain of arrows.

The back and forth substitution, water and fire did not invade, oil and salt did not enter, and in the end only the corpses of many of their own soldiers were left, but the casualties of the Han army were not many.

Now hearing the order to retreat, Zhou Li couldn't help but exhale a breath of annoyance in his chest, and he sincerely felt relaxed. Looking at his companions in other directions, UU did not encounter as strong and difficult as he encountered, but it was not much different. It has been dozens of minutes since the beginning, but the process is slow, and the so-called raid has become a complete joke.

"Give the order to go down and withdraw the troops! In addition, listen to my orders and be ready for a counteroffensive at any time. Zhou Li immediately gave an order, and the heralds around him immediately conveyed his order to the ears of the other Yellow Turban soldiers.

said that it was a withdrawal, Zhou Li still did not give up completely, and was still looking for any possible flaws. The current withdrawal of the army, one is the real withdrawal, and the other is to see if the Han army's pursuit will show flaws and kill a horse pistol. After that, it would be much more proactive to choose to withdraw the troops, or to counterattack.

Hearing Zhou Li's order, the soldiers under his command all had a number in their hearts and retreated one after another. The whole movement was very fast, and it was also very panicked, and in the process of retreating, many soldiers also dropped their weapons on the ground and picked them up in a hurry, quite a bit of the style of really losing their armor.

"Pass the order down, go slowly. The sword and shield guards the surroundings, and the pikemen do not move. Xiahoudun's complexion did not change much, and looking at the retreat of the Yellow Turban Army, he did not have much intention of taking advantage of the victory to pursue.

In his opinion, the performance of the Yellow Turban Army was really too deliberate, and they did not reach the point of truly losing their armor at all. From the beginning of the battle, he has always maintained a defensive position, and the initiative is ceded to the Yellow Turban Army, which means that they can advance or retreat, and the current situation is just a trick to lure the army.

Pursue? How could he chase, to chase, now is not the time. Xiahoudun already knew that the variables had really arrived, and Yingchuan's Huangfu Yizhen was afraid that he had already arrived, and he had blocked the back road of Yingchuan's Yellow Turban Army.

Now, it's not him who should be anxious, but the opponent.
