Chapter 234: Lu Bu is defeated

Outside the city, Wei Xuanjun Rui moved frequently, and Lu Bu and others on the city wall naturally saw it, but he had nothing to do, because although the cavalry blocking the west gate and the south gate was reduced, the infantry in the rear seemed to be Wei Xuan's Chinese army, and it was really heading towards the east gate.

And Gao Shun was the first to feel the pressure, because Zhao Yun soon led more than a thousand cavalry to the east gate. Gao Shun had seen the battle between Zhao Yun and Lu Bu in Ximen before. Lu Bu led his troops out of the south gate, and Zhao Yun and Du Peng intercepted him, and this one was specially intercepted by Lu Bu. The arrival of Zhao Yun also meant that Wei Xuan saw the retreat attempt and retreat route of Lu Bu's army, and it was almost impossible to change the route in the future, because once his own side loosened, Wei Xuan's encirclement would become tighter and tighter.

Gao Shun had to send someone to report to Lu Bu, and Lu Bu actually saw that now he had no good way but to retreat in advance. Soon more than 2,000 cavalry were assembled, Lu Bu stepped on the red rabbit horse, and appeared at the east gate with the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand, Gao Shun came down from the city wall and said with a gloomy face: "Outside is Zhao Yun, there are probably more than 1,300 cavalry. As soon as the south gate is withdrawn, Du Peng's 1,300 or 400 cavalry will be there in a moment???????????????? After breaking through the gate, Zhang Liao's cavalry at the west gate may chase our infantry into the city. ”

Lu Bu nodded and said: "Zixiu, the city gate will open in a while, and Zhao Yun will be blocked, you will lead your troops to break through to the north, don't fall in love with the speed of the battle, you must be fast." ”

Gao Shun nodded, and then asked, "General, are you going to the Tiger Prison or to the Yanshi?" ”

Lu Bu glanced at Gao Shun, he understood what Gao Shun meant, if he went to the Tiger Prison, he would face much fewer interceptions and ambushes, and it was possible that the cavalry coming from the Tiger Prison would also let the Wei Xuan Army who intercepted and ambushed on the road take the initiative to expose and retreat.

However, the defense of the city was broken in less than a day, and after the defeat, it did not join Xu Rong, which may cause Xu Rong to be pursued by Wei Xuan.

Xu Rong is defeated again, Lu Bu is not there, Yanshi is in danger, and it will be very troublesome for Dong Dongzhuo to pursue it.

Lu Bu thought for a moment and said, "Let's go north first, and then turn to Yanshi after joining up with the reinforcements in the Tiger Prison." ”

LΓΌ Bu made a decision, and immediately ordered the herald to shoot at the three city gates, informing them to retreat immediately.

The east gate of the Monkey City slowly opened, and Lu Buyi rushed out of the city gate first, but before he could see the enemy on the opposite side clearly, a loud voice shouted: "Haha, Lu Bu Xiao'er, my lord has long expected that you will escape from the east gate, you see it's still the three of us, how do you feel?" Why don't you run away, let's have a good time today. ”

Lu Bu raised his eyes and was completely speechless, Zhao Yun was in the center, Dian Wei and Xu Chu were left and right, and there seemed to be a lot of infantry rushing over to this side. Wei Xuan, this is really too deceitful! Thinking that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had left the West Gate before, why hadn't they come to the East Gate yet, could it be that they had gone to ambush?

But this time Lu Bu didn't need to face Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, and Xu Chu alone, because since it was a breakthrough, in addition to the injured Song Xian, Hao Meng, Cao Xing, Cheng Lian, and Hou Cheng appeared at the forefront of the cavalry, Wei Tong took the lead in blocking Hao Meng, Cao Xing and Cheng Lian teamed up to block Zhao Yun, Hou Cheng blocked Xu Chu, and Lu Bu faced Shang Dian Wei.

After the two thousand cavalry left the city, they faced Zhao Yun's more than 1,300 cavalry. The next to come out were the four hundred trap camp soldiers led by Gao Shun, who appeared on the right side of Zhao Yun's cavalry to the north against the city wall. However, at this time, Dian Wei and Xu Chu's troops were already in place, and more than a thousand Wei Xuan's personal guards faced Gao Shun's trapping camp.

One side is to break through, and the other side is responsible for interception, so naturally as soon as it comes up, it uses all its strength, clanging metal and shouting. The movement of the east gate quickly surpassed the other three gates.

At the same time, the soldiers of the Lu Bu army, who had received the order to retreat from the other three gates of the Monkey Clan, withdrew from the city as soon as possible, and then went straight to the east gate to converge. As soon as the order arrived, almost the same scene occurred on the three walls, that is, they rose up and fought the enemy back, and then retreated like a tide.

Aware of this and ordered by Wei Xuan, the attackers on the three walls quickly climbed up the walls, and then followed the ramp of the walls into the city to open the gates.

According to Wei Xuan's order, Zhang Liao led the tiger and leopard cavalry to abandon the pursuit of the infantry in the city and go straight to the east gate, and Huang Zhong then entered the city to take charge of accepting deserters and maintaining order in the city.

At the same time, the Weiyan infantry at the south gate followed the enemy, all the way along the city wall artillery, all the way after the enemy artillery. Du Peng, the cavalry of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, immediately turned around and went straight to the east gate, and now his task was to assist Zhao Yun in intercepting Lu Bu's cavalry.

???????????????? Wei Zheng of the North Gate led Yang Ling to garrison the North Gate, Huo Jun rushed to the East Gate along the city wall, and Su Lie rushed to Peng Po Mountain.

The battle in the city was as a large number of infantry poured in, and the enemy had either fled or surrendered on the spot, and the battle was fierce, and the east gate was already red-eyed at the moment. Lu Bu was in a hurry to break through, and with the arrival of a large number of other three infantry, Lu Bu knew that there was not much time left for him to fall. Because those who follow their own people are more enemies.

At this moment, Dian Wei and Zhao Yun have exchanged opponents, Gao Shun is leading the trap camp all the way forward, and more than a thousand pro-guards, who are known as the most elite, were quickly torn open by Gao Shun because they did not have the bonuses of Dian Wei and Xu Chu, the two pro-guard generals.

However, Gao Shun couldn't be happy, because as more and more soldiers from the trapped camp returned, the sound of rumbling horses' hooves was also heard in the city! The two sides fought fiercely for most of the day, and all the soldiers of the state understood that the large force of cavalry in the city must be Zhang Liaobu. If Zhang Liaobu is allowed to kill from the east gate, then the soldiers who are still in the city have almost no chance of escaping, and the soldiers who go out of the city will inevitably continue to be in a greater crisis, so Gao Shun immediately sent someone to inform Lu Bu that he could not continue to fight, and he needed to evacuate as soon as possible to leave people behind, and ask the general to lead the cavalry first.

When Gao Shun's herald saw Lu Bu, Lu Bu was already red-eyed, and Zhao Yun had to rely on the continuous assistance of his own soldiers to barely resist. In this way, the rate of casualties of the pro-soldiers becomes very fast.

However, as long as he can still block Lu Bu, even if Zhao Yun holds on for a breath, his chances of retaining Lu Bu will increase by one percent.

"General, the high school lieutenant has already torn the hole, the high school captain asked the general to leave immediately, and he led the infantry to break the rear."

Of course, Lu Bu understands that if he doesn't leave now, he will definitely be surrounded by Wei Xuan outside the city again, but if he stays, he will definitely die. Wei Xuan sent Zhao Yun to block the east gate in advance, disrupting his retreat plan, and Gao Shun was the most loyal among everyone, and now Gao Shun temporarily changed his plan, he could only accept it, so Fang Tian drew a halberd to cut down one of Zhao Yun's personal soldiers first, and then smashed it in front of Zhao Yun Zhen two steps back, and then turned his horse's head and ran to the north. Song Xian had been following Gao Shun, and Hao Meng, Cao Xing, Cheng Lian, Hou Cheng and others were ordered to retreat, and each relied on his own soldiers to desperately escape from his opponent and then headed north.

Lu Bu charged in the enemy army again, and basically one enemy was killed on the spot under the halberd of one side, and then the red rabbit horse burst forward. Others are not far behind.

Zhao Yun and others were blocked by the state cavalry layer by layer, although they were unwilling, but 1,300 cavalry and 1,000 infantry, at the beginning to intercept 2,000 cavalry and 400 foot and, the troops were at a disadvantage and suffered heavy losses, as the city and the state soldiers escaped, the number was increasing, and the infantry could not stop Gao Shun, and now Lu Bu retreated with the cavalry, although Zhao Yun's cavalry was very hard, but Lu Bu and others almost killed in a vertical line, and no one could stop them at all.

Fortunately, the enemy's goal is to break through, once there is a gap, he has no intention of fighting, Lu Bu and most of the cavalry broke through from the gap opened by Gao Shun, and continued to expand the gap.

However, the battle was far from over, because when Lu Bu and the others broke through, the cavalry went out in front of less than 1,500 people, and the rest were either killed in battle or stayed behind to break the rear.

Gao Shun is in charge of the broken back, which is the real broken back, and there is no chance of breaking through, because Zhang Liao and Du Peng have also arrived, and they can't chase after it???????????????? Shang Lu Bu, but was able to catch up with part of the Bingzhou cavalry and Gao Shun, Gao Shun's 800 trap camp, lost more than 100 when defending the city, after the retreat order was issued, the 300 trap camp left in the city all escaped, followed by about 500 Bingzhou infantry, they were surrounded by nearly 4,000 cavalry regiments, and there were five or six hundred guards left by Dian Wei and Xu Chulai in the inner circle.

Although Gao Shun's trapping camp was very brave, it became more and more difficult to break through from the enemy cavalry several times his size on flat ground.

In just a few moments for the first battle of the breakthrough, Lu Bu paid nearly four or five hundred cavalry and a large number of infantry, seeing that the number of soldiers in Bingzhou was getting smaller and smaller.

The ferocity of the Bingzhou soldiers stimulated the bloodiness of the Wei Xuan army, and the casualties of Gao Shun's troops increased rapidly.

Soon Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun made a decision, Zhao Yun and Du Peng led their headquarters to pursue Lu Bu, and Zhang Liao, Dian Wei, and Xu Chu surrounded and annihilated Gao Shun and the remaining infantry cavalry.

Meeting at close range, Zhang Liao did not rush to attack Gao Shun, but sat on horseback and shouted: "Zixiu, General Zhengxi has already set up a heavy ambush in the north, you can't escape." Dong Zhuo is a national thief, why don't you surrender? ”

Gao Shun smiled bitterly: "Shun should be loyal and do his best to follow the general." ”

Zhang Liao shook his head: "All the warriors used in the battle are national warriors, and it's a pity that all of them died here." ”

Zhang Liao did not deceive Gao Shun, and there was no suspense about the fall of Gao Shun's troops, because Wei Yan's infantry, who had been ordered to follow the rout of the enemy army, arrived, and Huo Jun did not appear on the city wall near the east gate. Seeing Wei Yan, Zhang Liao only said one sentence: "Zixiu is a loyal and righteous man, and I hope that Wen Chang's subordinates will show mercy, this is handed over to you, and Liao led the cavalry to chase Lu Bu." ”

Wei Yan understood that Zhang Liao was unwilling to fight Gao Shun and the others head-on, but since he had arrived, more than 4,000 people plus Dian Wei and Xu Chu would solve the problem of Gao Shun's hundreds of people and Huo Jun, who was about to participate in the war, so he nodded and agreed.

After Zhang Liao left, Wei Yan adjusted the formation slowly, and personally sat in the north, Wen Ping and Li Yan led the troops to oppress Gao Shun from the southeast and southeast respectively, and Huo Jun's archers simply stayed on the city wall, and he took the infantry out of the east gate to join the battle against Gao Shun.
