Chapter 48, Sun Menghu and the Yellow Turban Lux

Long, long, long......

The sound of war drums broke the silence of the early morning and slowly kicked off the war.

On the plain, a team of countless chariots charged, overwhelming the mountains and the sea, and the smoke and dust billowed behind them.

With the rise of cavalry in this era, the proportion of chariots decreased significantly, but it was not completely eliminated.

For example, Sun Jian's Jiangdong Army, because it was located in the south and lacked excellent war horses to form cavalry, chose to form a chariot army to make up for the lack of mobility in the army.

Compared with cavalry, although it is not easy to control and its mobility is not as good as that of cavalry, it also has its own advantages, that is, it has a more violent momentum than cavalry.

A shield soldier may be able to block the cavalry's momentum, but it is difficult to hold back the chariot soldier unless ...... Yellow Turban Lux.

This is the elite of the Yellow Turban Army, and it is also Zhang Liang's biggest hole card.

The Yellow Turban Lux is actually not as miraculous as rumored, they are just carefully selected from hundreds of thousands of people, although there are only a few hundred people, they are all tigers and bears, and they are as powerful as oxen.

Each was clad in thick armor, holding a huge shield equal to his own in his left hand and a heavy mace in his right hand.

Because it is used with one hand, this heavy short weapon is more convenient for them.

After rigorous training, the Yellow Turban Lux was obviously proficient in how to fight against all kinds of troops, and when they saw the overwhelming chariot troops, they did not retreat, but quickly formed small teams.

The charging chariot is approaching little by little, like a beast that has escaped from the reins.

But they were not afraid, and stood still like the Lamb that remained.

100 steps, 50 steps......

When the chariot rushed in front of them, they reacted quickly, forming small mountainees in groups of five to eight.

Half of the wheel ran over, and soon lost its balance, and because of the speed, the person turned on his back in an instant.

Most of the Yellow Turban wrestlers have been tested, and with the exception of a few, the cost of defeat is that the shield array is broken and crushed into pulp by one speeding chariot after another.

"Yellow Turban Lux?" Sun Jian quickly learned of the battle report from his subordinates, and learned the result of the heavy casualties of the chariot soldiers under his command, and then snorted coldly: "What a heavenly soldier and a heavenly general, I, Sun Jian, don't believe in this evil." ”

"The whole army obeys the ......"

He was about to give the order for the whole army to charge, and Cheng Pu on the side hurriedly persuaded: "General, our advance speed is too fast, and we have already pulled away from the army, why don't you wait?" ”

Sun Jian was silent for a moment when he heard this, and asked, "Who is behind us?" ”

"Cao Cao's cavalry."

"I believe him."

Four simple words blocked Cheng Pu's words, Sun Jian slowly raised the long knife in his hand, and said loudly: "The whole army obeys the order, kill with me!" ”

As soon as the words fell, he himself took the lead and galloped out, and Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and others hurriedly followed when they saw this.

Seeing that their master was so fierce, the soldiers in the rear of the "...... Killing" were greatly encouraged and quickly followed the footsteps.

There will be a heart to die, and there will be no greed for life.

At this moment, Sun Jian is quite overlord, and it is precisely because of his leadership that the invincible Jiangdong Army hundreds of years ago has reappeared.

Not long after, Sun Jian's department and the Yellow Turban Lux handed over in a short hand.

This is a strong body and a strong will to fight, no retreat, no fear, until the last drop of blood is shed.

Sun Jian's knife technique was so powerful that he smashed the heavy shield with one sword, disemboweling a yellow turban wrestler from top to bottom.

He is like the god of war on this battlefield, unstoppable.

In fact, Sun Jian in this period is the strongest general of the contemporary era, and he is at the peak of a man.

At the same time, in all corners of the battlefield, killing is everywhere.

There are yellow turban wrestlers who smashed the brains of Jiangdong soldiers with a stick, but there are also people who are stabbed into a hornet's nest by the Jiangdong soldiers who are surrounded by them because they are encircled.

The battle lasted for several hours before it was declared easy, and the three hundred Yellow Turban wrestlers were all wiped out, but it caused thousands of casualties in the Jiangdong Army.

Whew, whew......

Sun Jian breathed heavily, obviously it was not easy to deal with this kind of hard stubble.

But even in a state of exhaustion, he did not dare to be careless.

"Send out scouts immediately and keep a close watch on the rear."

Cheng Pu gave up his hand and was waiting to make arrangements, when there was a sudden shout of killing in his ears.

Cheng Pu's face changed slightly, the resilience and combat power of the Yellow Turban wrestlers were too strong, which not only disrupted their formation, but also made the whole army exhausted.

In the current state, it is really difficult to fight against the new force that has joined the battlefield.

Sun Jian smiled bitterly: "It seems that it is too late." ”

Then he stood up and said in a loud voice: "Brothers, the brave will win when we meet on the narrow road, and the reinforcements will be behind us, as long as we can hold on, we will definitely win a big victory." ”

The reinforcements were not just to deceive his soldiers, he considered this as a bait, but chose to believe Cao Cao, believing in the judgment and courage of the other party.

In addition to guarding the two wings, the opposing cavalry also served as a response.

"Kill, kill, kill......"

Sun Jian's existence was like a needle in the sea, and the soldiers who were already exhausted picked up their weapons on the ground one after another, and let out a neat and loud shout.

Bocai was leading the army to charge, and his face stiffened when he saw this momentum, obviously shocked by the resilience of this army.

But he had no other choice, and the Yellow Turban Lux could not be sacrificed in vain.

The flames of war were rekindled.

The Jiangdong army showed extraordinary will, even if people kept falling around them, they still did not retreat, and they were even able to fight with the Bocai army that was waiting for work.

It wasn't until another two hours passed that exhaustion spread inexorably, and the Jiangdong Army began to fall into decline.

"Cao Mengde, why haven't you come yet!"

During the battle, Sun Jian let out a roar.

"Brother Wentai, don't worry, it."

As if agreed, Cao Cao responded.

In fact, this is just a coincidence, the shouts and drums of war on the battlefield have long covered everything, and the two can't hear each other's voices at all.

But this doesn't matter anymore, when he saw the big banner with the word "Cao", the stone in Sun Jian's heart fell.

After all, it lives up to expectations.

The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind.

With the addition of Cao Cao's cavalry, the situation on the battlefield was reversed in an instant.

"Withdraw!"

Bo Cai knew that they had missed the fighter, and it was impossible for them to eat Sun Jian's army, and if they continued to fight, they would trap this army as well.

Cao Cao led the army to chase a few miles and then withdrew his troops, as the so-called poor Kou Mo chased, not to mention that his duty was not to engage head-on.

"Brother Wentai, you are too ......"

Cao Cao was a little speechless.

Sun Jian smiled heroically and said, "I believe in Meng De, as long as you can arrive in time, we will be able to fight back." ”

Cao Cao's face was grim.

"Thank you Brother Wentai for your trust."

"Since we are comrades, why do we need to say thanks, okay, we should collect our troops."

At this time, it was already waning, and the two immediately gathered their own soldiers and horses.

The total strength of the enemy and us is close to 200,000, and it is impossible to decide the winner or loser in such a big battle in a single day.
