Chapter 190: Xuande Draws the Bow at Night
In the past, Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin, used this to break the strong enemy.
It's just that although Sun Jian is brave above Han Xin now, the battlefield situation is different from that year.
Although the Yellow Turban soldiers were not as elite as the Han army, after all, they had some numerical advantages, and they were not afraid of death, so they forced Sun Jian and others to advance and retreat for a while.
It was also Sun Jian, Huang Gai and others who were brave, and only then did they repel the attacks of the Yellow Turbans several times in succession. It's just that there will be a loss for a long time, and under the hard fighting, the Han army has already suffered heavy casualties, and if it goes on like this, I am afraid that even if Sun Jian and others risk their lives, they will not be able to hold on for long.
Huang Gai and the others all knew Sun Jian's temperament, and knew that once he recognized something, he would not give up until he did it, so they did not persuade each other, but each held a sword and spear to guard Sun Jian's side.
At this time, Sun Jian had been fighting in front of the battle for a long time, his clothes and armor and face were full of blood, he wiped a handful of blood stains on his face, still invigorating the morale of the army, he said sharply: "Now the army is behind, victory and defeat are only in a moment." Gentlemen, fame and wealth are all in front of you! Hold on, it is to return to your hometown. I can't hold on, and I will die before the kings! ”
The Jiangdong disciples on his side didn't need to say much, and the Han army from Luoyang saw him behaving like this, and the little fear they had originally had also dispersed.
The sound of fighting on the shore was fierce, and the yellow scarves that were originally pressing them into the water were also shocked by their momentum for a while, and they were forced to retreat temporarily.
Sun Jian, who was fighting to the death, breathed a sigh of relief at this time, but before he could really put his mind down, Chen Fu, who had led the army to help from the camp under the city of Changshe, suddenly arrived with thousands of yellow turban troops.
The Yellow Turban already has a big advantage in terms of numbers, and now Chen Fu has led his troops to help the Yellow Turban, which is actually not big, but it undoubtedly boosts his morale.
The stalemate that Sun Jian had painstakingly maintained was broken in an instant, and the Han army began to retreat one after another, constantly retreating towards the water behind him.
At this time, Zhu Jun and others were still in the middle of the crossing.
Seeing that the general trend was about to fail, even if he was as brave as Sun Jian, he had to sigh.
Back then, he read the historical records, read the overlord broke the cauldron and sunk the boat in the giant deer, and sang to the beat. When he read that the overlord was defeated by Wujiang, he couldn't understand why such a character chose to kill himself in the end.
Now he finally understands that manpower is sometimes poor.
Even if he is a hero, under defeat, he will be unable to support himself after all.
At this time, Chen Fu, who was far away from the formation, also saw Sun Jian who was surrounded by Huang Gai and others in the center, he raised his hand on horseback and pointed to the place where Sun Jian was in the distance, and shouted: "This must be the leader of the thieves, whoever takes off this person's head, I will report to Qu Shuai to ask for merit for him." Eliminate thieves for the great sages and good teachers, and you will definitely be blessed by the heavens! ”
When this person mentioned the great sage and good teacher, and when he mentioned the sky, the Yellow Turban Army on the shore immediately shouted that the sky was dead, and the yellow sky should stand.
Then he threw himself at Sun Jian as if he forgot to die.
Although the guards on Sun Jian's side were all brave men, under the impact of the Yellow Turban's several sacrifices, the number of people gradually decreased.
Sun Jian, who was originally protected by Huang Gai, struggled to push Huang Gai away, threw away the spear in his hand, re-grasped the ancient ingot knife in his hand, and tore off the red scarf on his head casually, his hair rising in the wind.
Sun Jian shouted angrily and said sharply: "Jiangdong boys can only fight to the death!" There is no reason to avoid war! Back then, the overlord could run rampant in the world with 8,000 Jiangdong children, and now my generation is not as good as our ancestors! ”
The morale of the army is restored and reinvigorated, and they have to fight to the death with the yellow scarf in front of them.
Chen Fu, who was outside the formation, sneered at Sun Jian's behavior, the great sage and good teacher were the people chosen by Huang Tian, even if these people in front of him had some courage? It's not like you're going to die at your own hands!
The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, and those who go against this general trend will never be spared!
There is no way to retreat, Sun Jian led the Han army behind him and the Yellow Turban Army collided together, Sun Jian looked like a mad tiger, personally fought in front, and suffered several accidents, but fortunately, Zu Mao and others came to the aid in time.
Seeing that Sun Jian and the others were about to die, Chen Fu also relaxed his mind. I just don't want to be at this time, there is the sound of horses' hooves coming from the south.
He turned his head in surprise, most of the cities in the south had been occupied by the Yellow Turbans, how could there be soldiers and horses running at this time?
And there were quite a few people listening to the sound of horses' hooves.
He let out a loud shout, beckoning the Yellow Turban soldiers to form a formation.
With such a scale of cavalry, in the Yellow Turban Army, only the main camp in Jizhou, where the great sage and good teacher is located, can barely make up one.
Now Jizhou is also in a series of wars, and those who are galloping in front of them must be friends and foes.
This person was also a little anxious, but unfortunately it was too late to deal with the situation, and at this time, hundreds of horsemen had already attacked behind the Yellow Turban.
The man at the head was bare-faced and long-bearded, and sat on a blood-colored steed.
The people who came were naturally Liu Bei and others from the Lu Kingdom.
On that day, they left the Lu State, and did not directly throw themselves into Zhu Jun's army, but made a detour from the south, wanting to go straight to the city of Changshe, but did not want to come here to see Sun Jian and others fighting.
Guan Yu took the front army first, seeing that the battle situation on Sun Jian's side was tight, he didn't care about returning to the rear army to report to Liu Bei, so he directly led the front army to help Sun Jian.
Guan Yu glanced at the situation in the formation, and at a glance saw Chen Fu who was standing outside the big array.
Capturing thieves and slashing generals is his Guan Yunchang's forte.
At this time, he didn't say much, relying on the advantage of the cavalry, and went straight to Chen Fu.
Although Chen Fu is a little brave, but this person is actually not a person who dares to fight, and now although he has won the appreciation of Bocai with his strength, he has mixed up to a high position, but he has no intention of sacrificing his life, otherwise he would not just stand outside the battle formation and command.
It's just that it often backfires, although he intends to dodge, but he can meet Guan Yunchang, who is known for being a battle-cutter.
Guan Yu rode his horse, and although there were yellow scarves trying to stop him along the way, they were all scattered by him.
Seeing Guan Yu chasing closer and closer behind him, Chen Fu wanted to turn back and fight, but he just turned the horse's head and was about to take off the spear hanging from the saddle.
Chen Fu didn't have time to dodge, only saw the bright blade in front of him, and then fell on his back under the horse.
At this time, Liu Bei and Gao Shun with the rear army behind him had arrived, and immediately pressed towards the yellow scarf in front of them.
When Sun Jian and the other besieged people saw that reinforcements had arrived, they lifted their spirits and began to fight outside.
And the Yellow Turban side lost the main general at this time, and it was naturally defeated and retreated.
Under the defeat, the Yellow Turban Rebellion marched towards the main camp under the city of Changshe.
At this time, Sun Jian and others, who lived for the rest of their lives, were completely out of breath.
Liu Beice immediately stepped forward to meet Sun Jian.
The big battle ended, Sun Jian didn't care about etiquette at this time, and sat directly on the ground, looked at Liu Bei who came and smiled, "Thanks to Xuande coming, otherwise I'm afraid that Sun Mou will be planted here today." I thought I could make a big contribution because of this, but who would have thought that I would almost die here. He will repay the grace of saving him today. ”
"Wentai is brave, even if he doesn't come, presumably Wentai will be able to defeat it, and it's just a trick." Liu Bei said with a smile.
Sun Jian glanced back, and saw that Zhu Jun's army had already crossed the river behind him, he let out a long breath, stood up, and said with a smile: "Now that the big thing is undecided, it seems that there will be another battle." I'm not going to give in to this great achievement. ”
Liu Bei smiled when he heard this, beat his horse and returned to the cavalry, and the next moment, the cavalry went straight to the camp under the Yellow Turban City.
In the city of Changshe, Huangfu Song in the city took advantage of the chaos outside the city and sent thousands of elite soldiers to sneak outside the city with fires in hand and set fires.
The yellow turbans outside the city camped according to the grass, and now they were ignited by the Han army, and with the help of the wind direction, the flames in the camp broke out for a while.
The yellow scarf outside the city was already a little uneasy because of the fire behind him, but now there was a fire in front of him, and it was all chaotic for a while.
Although Bocai tried his best to calm people's hearts, the situation is so bad that even he, the main general, is shaken, let alone those ordinary yellow scarves.
At this time, the city gate of Changshe was even more open, and the city sergeants came out of the city shouting and fighting.
After besieging the city for several days, Bocai was naturally unwilling to retreat like this, organized the Yellow Turban Army in the camp, and fought with Huangfu Song and others who came out of the city.
In the end, the Yellow Turban is full of people, even in the current situation, it still does not fall behind, and even faintly suppresses the Han army on the opposite side.
Just when Bo Cai had stabilized his heart a little, he didn't want the sound of horses' hooves behind him, he turned to look back, and a cavalry army was attacking not far behind him, and behind this cavalry, he could faintly see many foot soldiers.
Now, Bo Cai naturally understood that Chen Fu had not blocked the Han troops who crossed the river, so he immediately made a decision, drew his knife in his hand, and shouted that the Yellow Turban Leader on his side organized the Yellow Turban soldiers in the battalion to retreat.
As for the retreating place, it is naturally Yangzhai City, which is still in the hands of the Yellow Turban.
Yangzhai is the seat of Yingchuan, the city is high and the grain is sufficient, so it is naturally a good place for defense.
At this time, the Yellow Turban generals on his side all wanted Bo Cai to retreat first, but Bo Cai scolded angrily, "Now is the time to survive, if I retreat first, the rear army will be chaotic, how can I stop Huang Fu Song and others!" Quickly retreat, I will supervise the rear army! ”
Bocai had great prestige in the Yellow Turban Army, and when everyone saw that he was angry, they did not dare to argue, so they had to withdraw to organize the withdrawal of the Yellow Turban Army.
Huangfu Song, who had already attacked outside the camp, obviously also noticed the movement of the Yellow Turban Army, but only Youbo was in command of the rear army, and it was difficult to attack the camp for a while.
At this time, the cavalry of Liu Bei and others had arrived, and seeing the chaotic battle between the two armies, they directly inserted themselves into the battle from one side.
Bo Cai obviously didn't expect them to come so quickly, the flanks were slightly weak, and they were actually directly broken through the left flank by Guan Yu with the cavalry front army. It's just that Bo Cai is a natural general, but he didn't panic when he saw that the left wing was broken, and while commanding the soldiers to deal with Huangfu Song, he also divided a part of the yellow scarf to surround Guan Yu and others.
The advantage of the cavalry is fast, as long as it is coerced by the layers of yellow turbans, even the fastest cavalry will not be able to play a role.
As soon as he came up with this strategy, Guan Yu really rushed out with the cavalry, wandering outside the main battlefield, and no longer pounced inward.
Seeing that he had temporarily gotten rid of this sudden cavalry army, Bo only let out a sigh, but before he could completely relax his mind, another army came from outside, and it was Sun Jian and others who were following Liu Bei closely.
After Sun Jian arrived, he didn't say much, and directly led his troops to attack the left flank of the Yellow Turban.
Although Bocai has natural talents, now under the unstable hearts of the Yellow Turbans, he not only has to deal with the Huangfu Song on the front, but also has to be distracted to deal with Liu Bei, Sun Jian and others on the flanks, which is really a little stretched.
I didn't want the right wing to regenerate the incident at this time, an army suddenly arrived, straight to the right wing of the Yellow Turban, the leader was short, but the spear in his hand was very sharp, stabbing left and sweeping right, but in the blink of an eye, several people were stabbed down one after another. And behind this person, someone was holding a broad long sword and was commanding the Han army behind him.
The person at the head is Le Jin, and the person in command behind him is Cao Cao, who has been recovering from the county and is now appointed as the captain of the cavalry.
On the same day, Cao Cao recovered from Qian County, not only preserving Qian County, but also restoring several cities one after another. Today, he originally came to support Huangfu Song and others, but he didn't want to see a fire nearby, and he heard the shouts to kill Zhentian, so he led the army to come.
At this time, Cao Cao was also eyeing Bocai's head, and was directing the soldiers to attack.
Bocai saw that the enemy on the left flank had not yet been defeated, and the enemy had also come on the right flank, and it was already extremely difficult to support, and now it was even worse.
At this time, Sun Jian and others on the left wing naturally also noticed the movement of the right wing of the Yellow Turban, although they didn't know that it was Cao Cao, but they also knew that this was a good opportunity that could not be missed.
】
Sun Jian made an offensive gesture towards Liu Bei behind him, and then he quickly pressed on with his soldiers and forcibly tore out the left flank of the Yellow Turban.
And Liu Bei and the others, who had been traveling outside the big array looking for opportunities, immediately followed the hole torn open by Sun Jian into the big array, and went straight to the waves behind the formation.
Guan Yu opened the way in front, and the ordinary yellow scarf naturally couldn't stop it.
At this time, Bo Cai was already exhausted, but he was just in a trance, and he saw that the left flank had been broken through, and he didn't have time to command, but he saw that the cavalry led by Guan Yu was already about to kill in front of him.
With the entry of Liu Bei and others, there was already chaos in the Yellow Turban Army, and the originally orderly military formation was completely chaotic.
Seeing this, the guards around Bocai immediately stepped forward to besiege Guan Yu and the others, but they were killed by Guan Yu and the others.
The rest of the guards saw that the general trend was gone, so they had to escort the wave before retreating.
Now that most of the Yellow Turbans have been removed, it seems that the remaining people cannot be saved.
Bocai was unwilling to leave, shouting that he would stay here and fight the enemy with the remaining Yellow Turban soldiers.
At this time, Liu Bei, who was behind Guan Yu, was already twisting his bow and arrows on horseback, he let go of the string, and went straight to Bocai with an arrow.
At this time, Bo Cai was shouting to stabilize the soldiers and horses, and he was unguarded, and was hit by Liu Bei's arrow in the arm.
Bocai turned over and fell off the horse.
Liu Bei and the others rushed forward, wanting to take down this person's head, but they didn't want the guards on Bocai's side to take him and quickly fled.
Liu Bei and the others could only watch as Bo Cai was taken away.
Bo Cai was wounded and fled, the Yellow Turban lost his main general, the people's hearts were in turmoil, and Zhu Jun, who had come from behind, also brought people to join the battlefield, and the war was quickly calmed down.
At this time, Cao Cao rode his horse to Liu Bei's side and said with a smile: "Xuande, don't come unharmed."
