The moment he left the city, Guan Yong knew that it was impossible for him to win this battle. The Aries tribe opposite the www.biquge.info has more than 100,000 Rong Di, and they are all cavalry. In such a situation where forces do not have a superiority, there can be no chance of victory. Even if you take a step back, the number of soldiers on your side exceeds that of the other party, you are still a foot soldier. For cavalry, it is inherently weak. In this situation, there is really no chance of winning. It's just that as a general of the army, Guan Yong can only try to kill as many Rong Di's soldiers as possible.

This is their duty, their own destiny.

Lao Tzu's name is Guan Yong. The official who is an official, the brave and brave.

"My lord, you must not do it! After repeated defeats, the soldiers have long been frightened, and it is already so difficult for us to defend the city. If you go out of the city to fight, you will have no chance of winning!"

Before going out of the city to meet the attack, a staff member bitterly advised Guan Yong: "Although the war in Youzhou is difficult, since the Holy Lord has entrusted him with the position of the town guard, the adults still need to work hard after all, why do you give up on yourself so much?"

Yes, if you go out of the city to face the battle, you will die, stay in the city to defend and defend, at least you have a little chance of surviving.

"I've made up my mind, why don't I say more!"

Guan Yong only left such a sentence, and then turned around and left.

......

In the camp of Rong Di in the distance, the Chu people who were driven together by Rong Di first were divided into several groups, the old and weak were in a pile, the women were in a pile, and the strong men were tied up under the threat of knives and guns. They were driven to assemble in an open field outside the camp, and were driven into the sheepfold that Rongdi had temporarily fenced off by the soldiers armed with sharp blades like cattle.

Rong Di felt that it was useless for the old and weak to bring them back to the grassland, so he dragged the old and weak Han people to an open area and sang the praises of the "Kunlun God" for giving them a great victory. Before, these old and weak people were driven under the city wall of Youzhou, lined up in long rows of kneeling, and the Rong Di soldiers standing behind raised their scimitars and slashed hard, as if they were weeding. Under the force, the head rolled wildly, the green grassland changed color, the blades of grass were no longer clear dew, and a pinch of the originally blue and bright grass was sprinkled with the blood of the Chu people!

Now there is no need for such waste. The reason why Rong Di wantonly killed people under the city was to force the soldiers in the city to come out and fight. As long as the Chu army defending the city comes out, the goal will be achieved.

In just over half an hour, Rong Di slaughtered more than 10,000 Chu people under Youzhou City. Outside the city, the corpses were piled up like a mountain, and the blood of the Chu people was sprinkled all over the earth, almost converging into a river.

There are many ways to siege the city, but Rong Di used the most brutal one.

The current camp of Rongdi is full of looted goods from the land of Chu. The Aries King had previously sent part of his troops to drive up to tens of thousands of sturdy Chu men and tens of thousands of plundered women to slowly retreat in the direction of the grassland. The reason was that they were worried that the journey would be too tiring, and the captured Chu slaves would be too seriously killed and injured on the road. What was stolen belonged to them, whether it was clothing, food, or the slave population, it had now become their own property. Therefore, as the Rongdi cavalry escorting slaves, they are also willing to march slowly, so that they have more time to **** the captured Chu women and children.

Rong Di drove the sturdy slaves into a temporary wooden fence and held one for every 1,000 people. At night, the Rong Di soldiers only sent a few guards to guard the bound Chu men, and the other grasslands Rong Di was busy abusing the captured Chu women and selecting looted property.

For Rong Di, fighting a war has the same meaning as farming for the Chu people. It's just that Rong Di uses knives and arrows to plow, while the Chu people use farm tools. The Chu people are sheep in the eyes of the fierce Rong Di, and the cowardly sheep are never the opponent of the wolf, and the Kunlun god of Rong Di told them: If you lack anything, go to the south to rob, and the Chu people, and even all the Han people in the southern countries, are the wealth you keep in the sheepfold. For all Rong Di, the Kunlun God is supreme, and it is a matter of course for wolves to rob sheep. For thousands of years, the steppe Rong Di has long been accustomed to this bandit logic. They were not afraid of the powerful Han Dynasty in ancient times, how could they be afraid of the Great Chu State, which was established after war?

......

Although it was a charge, in fact, the array of the Chu army that came out of Youzhou City was not neat. Not to mention the tragic momentum of fighting to the death. The soldiers, barely maintained by the officers, staggered towards the opposite side with weapons in hand. There were shouts of varying lengths, and they didn't even play any role in emboldening themselves.

The king of Aries rode on a horse, and after seeing the Chu army out of the city to meet the attack, he did not miss the opportunity and immediately ordered the army to attack the Chu army.

The people shouted and the horses neighed, and the two armies belonging to different banners soon collided together.

Guan Yong's hand holding the handle of the war knife was trembling, trembling as he looked at the battle in front of him, he had been suppressing the thought of wanting to show up and go to the battlefield, rushing forward to die or live, but he knew that he would die and could not sit still. Once the Rongdi cavalry completed the encirclement, then this kind of battle would not have to be fought again.

He Huo Di stood up from the formation, waved the war knife in his hand, and a huge word "kill" erupted from his mouth, the sound was like thunder, and the sound shook the heavens and the earth.

Guan Yong led his troops into the Rongdi array in desperation. The people who heard the roar involuntarily turned their heads to look, and they saw a tall figure suddenly appear in front of them, coupled with the sudden roar, it was like a ghost and god suddenly descending to the world.

It was unexpected, and it was sudden. The Rong Di cavalry was shocked by the roar of the Chu army generals who suddenly appeared, and the offensive suddenly slackened, which was the instinctive reaction of human beings. It is the same whether it is the Chu people or Rong Di. However, the soldiers who followed Guan Yong's side were stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted, they took advantage of Rong Di's stunned moment to swing their knives and chop wildly, and in an instant, they chopped several more.

"Kill!"

Guan Yong's roar was like a ghost. In order to survive, and for the people of Youzhou behind him not to be ravaged and enslaved, he had no choice but to fight to the death. Swinging his knife vigorously to knock down the two Rong Di who were standing in place stunned with a bow, Guan Yong immediately raised his knife like a madman and chopped people when he encountered them, trying to kill and injure enough people before Rong Di's opponent reacted.

When the two armies meet, the brave wins.

Guan Yong was like an unshakable giant, desperately slashing and slashing through the rioting crowd, until Rong Di reacted, there were more than a dozen opponents who died in his hands

However, the bravery of just a few people is of no use to change the whole normal situation. The Youzhou Chu army, which has been demoralized for a long time, where is the opponent of the battle-hardened Rongdi Aries tribe?

The Rongdi soldiers wearing leather armor quickly cut into the formation of the Chu army. Then with his skillful battle formation skills and strong personal ability, he swept towards the surrounding Chu army, tearing at the Chu army's front like a sharp blade.

The soldiers of the Chu army, who had already been frightened, completely lost the will to continue fighting under such an unfavorable situation. They soon began to cower and retreat. But the Rong Di soldiers didn't give them a chance to breathe at all, and kept chasing them and fighting, and there were a large number of Rong Di cavalry galloping and shooting arrows on the periphery, and there were people in the Chu army who kept screaming and falling. As the fighting progressed, the casualties of the Chu army increased. However, the Rongdi Aries cavalry did not suffer many casualties, as if they were becoming more and more brave the more they fought.

Finally, there was a small army of the Chu army that could not stand this completely hopeless battle. They turned and fled, their faces full of fear and their mouths shouting.

"Hurry up, defeated, we are defeated, and it will be too late if we don't leave. ”

A lot of things are interconnected. As if it was a chain reaction, after seeing a small army fleeing, the remaining Chu soldiers seemed to have been infected, and they withdrew from the engagement with Rong Di's troops, then turned around, threw away the swords, guns and flags in their hands, and fled backwards.

Guan Yong slashed desperately with red eyes. He wanted to vent his anger over the past few months. The image of Rong Di barbarian slaughtering the people of Chu like slaughtering cattle has always been lingering in his mind. Every time Guan Yong cut down a Rongdi soldier, he couldn't help but think of the people of Chu who died under Youzhou City before.

"Kill!"

After a burst of slashing, Guan Yong cut down the only figure in front of him who was still shaking, and roared to the sky: "Kill! kill!"

In the center where he stood, stretched outwards with the mutilated corpses of the Rongdi soldiers, his vision was scarlet, and suddenly he heard a neighing of a horse, and he turned to look mechanically, and saw a vague figure climbing on the horse's back, about to ride away.

It was a Chu soldier who was afraid and wanted to escape. Now on the entire battlefield, the part that can fight is also this group of pro-soldiers with Guan Yong as the core.

"Stop for Lao Tzu!" Guan Yong threw out the war knife in his hand without thinking about it, the blurred figure in his eyes fell off the horse, his mind had not yet recovered from the tragic battle, and he looked around with a hideous face, and his vision was as red as blood!

Around, more than a dozen frightened Rong Di soldiers no longer dared to fight, and then turned around and fled towards their own large array

Guan Yong can't care about so much. When he led his troops out of the city, he foresaw such a situation. The reason why he showed beast-like bravery was that he wanted to use his personal bravery to revive the sluggish morale. However, things didn't go their way. The number of Chu soldiers who fled on the battlefield increased, and the officers and bravers became more and more courageous.

With red eyes, he crouched down and picked up a war knife and slashed at the people who came close. The blade that was chopped out was held up by a steel sword, and Guan Yong was about to swing the knife and split again, but the familiar voice of the guards with a crying voice sounded in his ears, "General, it's me!" Guan Yong didn't hear it at all, and chopped it down again, knocking the steel sword away, and then when he was about to hack to death a Chu army deserter who fell to the ground, he was hugged by his own personal guards from behind.

"General, we're defeated!

Guan Yong's heart was shocked, and the blade of the sword that was cut down was only a few centimeters away from the neck of the Chu army deserter. He froze in place for a full five minutes before returning to normal, and his vision returned to clarity, and he no longer looked scarlet. He looked at the corpses around him, and his face showed a dejected expression.

"Defeated!

The cries were sparse, then louder, and finally converged into an irresistible torrent. The soldiers of the Chu army shouted as they ran backwards in complete desperation. Sometimes, they are crowded together in a panic, and they are fighting each other for who will escape first, as if they have the courage to fight at this time.

Looking at this scene, the Rongdi cavalry in the distance couldn't help laughing. Over the years, when the Chu army was fighting against them, such a scene had become commonplace, and it made them more and more contemptuous of the Chu people.

No, it's not just the Chu people. Including the Qi people and the Zhao people, the same is true many times. Legend has it that thousands of years ago, the emperor of Zhao could still lead his troops to fight, and he rode and shot in Hufu. Now, the border of Zhao is also like Youzhou, allowing Rong Di to enter and exit freely. It's just that that that side belongs to King Zuoxian's sphere of influence, and the plundering space of the Aries tribe can only be from the side of Youzhou.

Seeing the deserters of the Chu army who spread out in an instant like breaking waves on the battlefield, the official Yong who was supervising the formation in the rear couldn't help but feel black in front of his eyes, and the war knife in his hand fell to the ground with a "bang".

The front line has apparently collapsed. Just as his staff had expected before leaving the city, the soldiers of the Chu army, who had already been frightened, did not even dare to fight with Rong Di again. Without morale, there is no battle at all.

Now it is obviously impossible to reorganize the front line and engage Rong Di again. In desperation, Guan Yong had to order to quickly withdraw the troops and let those troops come back first.

Perhaps because of the fear of the heavy bed crossbow on the head of Youzhou City, the pursuit of the Rong Di cavalry only lasted for a short time and did not continue. While mocking outside the city, they collected their troops in an orderly manner, as if they had already regarded Youzhou City as a bag.

Speaking of which, I still have to thank the complex terrain outside Youzhou City. This is not suitable for a brigade of cavalry to charge. Youzhou has been in business for many years, and all means of defense are to deal with a possible war. Outside the city there were forts, and there were many things like horses. That night, Guan Yong rested in the improvised Chu army camp outside the city. It's just that he couldn't sleep all night, he couldn't sleep at all, he kept tossing and turning, and his mind was extremely chaotic. Guan Yong thought about a lot of things, thought of his own life experience, when he was young, he studied hard, and then the title of the gold list, after becoming a jinshi, he only wanted to serve the court, and after entering the officialdom, he found that the world he originally longed for was completely different from what he imagined. The court was full of stumbling and constraints, and everyone formed a party for personal gain, and no one cared about the safety of the country and the people.

Becoming a leading general should be a good way out. But even so, what can be done? There is no food, and there is never a time when the military pay is paid in full. The household department and the military department quarrel every day, and His Majesty is also anxious about it.

Rong Di's reaction was a little strange. They did not send troops to fight at night, nor did they send troops to attack or harass them. Perhaps, it was because he felt that it would be useless to destroy this Chu army that went out of the city to face the battle! In short, Guan Yong also had the opportunity to return to the city.

It wasn't until dawn the next day that Guan Yong reluctantly got up and returned to Youzhou City. Although he cheered up the next day and climbed to the top of the city to boost morale, the soldiers of the Chu army were still depressed and listlessly battled under the city, obviously pessimistic and depressed to the extreme. Seeing this situation, Guan Yong and Li Guangfeng were heartbroken, but they had no choice but to sigh at the head of the city.

Their lamentation did not last long, and as soon as it was dawn, the army of Rong Di on the opposite side launched an attack.

Because of yesterday's defeat, the morale of the Chu army in Youzhou is even more unbearable. Rong Di's army was directly killed outside the city, and then drove the Chu civilian brigade forward as if no one was around, and he didn't take the Chu army in the city in his eyes at all.

The Rong Di cavalry, wielding scimitars and whips, desperately urged the civilians of the Chu State who had been captured from various villages outside the city to move forward en masse. These Chu civilians, men and women, young and old, dressed in thin clothes, were forced to walk forward timidly and painfully under the impetus of the Rong Di soldiers. The people who had already walked to the city were beheaded one by one, or stabbed to death with spears by the Rongdi soldiers. The ground was drenched in blood, and the soil could no longer absorb water, forming a blood pit in the concave position. The people saw death, but in front of the whips and knives and guns of the Rongdi soldiers, they could only cry and walk towards it with a blank expression. Some of them could not bear this terrible torment and suffering, and ran back like crazy, but they were soon killed by the soldiers of Rongdi who were watching by them with knives, guns, bows and arrows, and the rest of them could only continue to move forward in fear and despair, and they no longer even expected to survive such a disaster, but just numbly spread their legs and walked mechanically.

As time passed, there were more and more corpses under the city. The people in the back knew that it would be death to go to the front, and it was useless to turn around and try to run away or plead bitterly. In the end, he was still killed, fell to the ground and died in agony. This terrible death spread like a contagious disease in the wilderness in a bloody wind. More and more people of Chu State fell, but they did not receive any mercy. The corpses were piled up on a slope, and the height increased little by little, like stones piled up on a heavy platform.

Looking at the tragic scene under the city, Guan Yong and Li Guangfeng both opened their eyes wide, as if they were about to ooze blood, their hands were clenched tightly, and their whole bodies were trembling.

"Oh my God, Rong Di has so cruelly killed my people of Dachu, how different is it from beasts!"

Guan Yong slammed his fist on the head of the city, and scolded in a trembling voice: "We should not share the sky with Rong Di! Such a blood feud will be avenged! It must be avenged!"

"We are incompetent, we have a negative heart, we harm the people, and we deserve death......

Li Guangfeng and Zhang Quan couldn't say anything anymore, just muttered to themselves with tears in their eyes, and shook their heads gloomily.

Yes, they all know in their hearts.

But even if their hearts hurt, they can't do anything, they can only watch the tragedy happen, and wait for the tragedy to come to the city of Youzhou where they are currently located. This feeling of powerlessness gnawed at their hearts and added to their pain.

Under the ruthless drive of the Rongdi soldiers, although the city did not stop arrows and used various means to defend desperately, the number of dead under the city wall continued to increase. Finally, it was raised to a height adjacent to the top of the city wall. Looking at the dead bodies of the Chu people close at hand, the officers and soldiers in the city all felt extremely desperate when they saw this situation. (To be continued.) )
