Chapter 424: Defeat is like a mountain
As soon as Yan Liang died, the morale of this army of 30,000 collapsed in an instant.
Those soldiers who witnessed Yan Liang's killing not only did not dare to rush forward to kill again, but also shouted loudly that General Yan was killed, and the news was like a rapidly spreading plague, which soon spread throughout most of the battlefield.
So much so that in a short period of time, the people of the Jizhou army panicked, and the morale of the army was on the verge of collapse.
Because Yan Liang went to the right wing, Guo Tu, who was very relieved, kept an eye on the attack of the left wing trapped camp, and he did not notice the situation on the right wing until the riot occurred, which startled him on the spot.
Yan Liang was killed, and he died in the hands of Ma Chao.
How could that weak young general be able to kill Yan Liang?!
In disbelief, he hurriedly ordered the battle.
But at this time, the defeated army's spirit was like a flood that burst the embankment, and it was difficult to stop just killing a few fleeing soldiers.
Guo Tu couldn't figure out how the battle that was fought very smoothly suddenly became like this.
"Escapees, slash!" Guo Tu angrily ordered again, and sent all the soldiers around him to supervise the battle.
There are more people killed, but barely there is some effect.
The confusion and rout were most obvious on the right flank, and the rear army was relatively stable, and after the rear army made up for it, the army formation barely stabilized.
But just when Guo Tu, who was sweating profusely and shouting, was just relieved, another cavalry suddenly came out from the northeast.
Before the soldiers and horses arrived, a rough voice came over the vast battlefield.
"The surname Guo is very enjoyable to bully my little pony, isn't it? Naion will take your dog's life today!"
Guo Tu swept away the mighty cavalry, and his complexion suddenly changed greatly.
Seven or eight thousand cavalry!
Guo Tu looked at the military formation that had barely stabilized the formation, and then looked at the mighty Maji River behind him, held a breath in his heart, gritted his teeth and ordered, "The rear army is all blocked to the left flank, the shield hand is forward, the archers are second, prepare to release the arrows!"
His three-sided array had no choice but to divide into two battlefields.
Whether it was Ma Chao or the trapped-camp with only more than 1,000 people, they greatly exceeded Guo Tu's expectations in terms of combat power.
Ma Chao led no more than five or six thousand cavalry, but he almost restrained his entire right-wing battlefield.
And the trapped camp, which only had more than 1,000 people, carried his left-wing army formation alone, almost chiseled through.
"Guo Tu Xiao'er, don't come forward to die!"
That rough voice sounded from the battlefield again, like a thunderbolt, and Guo Tu was anxious.
At this moment, he was completely uncertain of victory, but he didn't want to withdraw his troops just like that.
What's more, they're really fighting back now.
Behind them was the mighty Horse Cheek River, and if he ordered the withdrawal of his troops, he would be defeated.
The enemy army sent troops from three sides, Ma Chao was in front, trapping the camp and attacking this cavalry one after another, if he guessed correctly, this cavalry should be the fierce Zhang Ji who can stop children crying at night.
Zhang Ji has already arrived, so where is Cao Ren?
If it was just these troops, Guo Tu would dare to fight a battle and try the edge of the imperial court's Xiyuan Army.
But if Cao Ren personally led the Chinese army to attack, Guo Tu would not even have superfluous ideas, and withdrawing troops was the only way to survive.
"Shoot the arrows!"
When Zhang Ji led the army to rush closer, Guo Tu, who looked nervous, waved his hands and shouted heavily.
Arrows rained down.
Zhang Ji laughed cruelly and shouted, "Drop the face armor, rush!"
"Kill!"
The monstrous beast armor fell, and the soldiers ignored the dense array of arrows coming towards them, and instead increased their speed.
When the war horse was hit by an arrow, the soldiers abandoned the war horse, directly turned the cavalry into infantry, and charged behind the cavalry.
Guo Tu looked at this scene of not being afraid of death, and his heart leaked half a beat in an instant.
"Why can't the arrows pierce their armor?" He whispered in confusion
Sentence.
Just now, Guo Tu really saw that there were many arrows in the war horses, but there were only a few scattered knights who were hit by arrows.
"Shoot the arrows, release the arrows!" He anxiously ordered again.
The soldiers drew their bows and arrows again.
The second round of arrow rain had just fallen, and Zhang Ji led the cavalry to rush into the formation.
is like a tiger entering a flock, and the military spirit between the two is instantly judged.
Zhang Ji brandished a long sword and shouted loudly and charged forward.
The most exaggerated thing is that while attacking, this guy did not forget to greet Guo Tu.
"The surname Guo, don't give you this dog head, let Uncle Ben cut it off!"
Ma Chao, who is the main owner, didn't say anything, but Zhang Ji, who was almost untouched, seemed to have a deep hatred with Guo Tu.
Just a face, under the iron hooves of the cavalry, Guo Tu's left flank army formation was torn open.
Zhang Ji threw down the left flank army formation and didn't care about it anymore, but led the army straight to the Shuai Qi and rushed over.
Seeing this, Guo Tu knew that the general trend had gone.
"Withdraw!" He hurriedly instructed the soldiers beside him.
"Prison Army, the soldiers......" The soldier was still a little unbearable.
Guo Tu raised his hand and slapped it out, shouting angrily, "Obey the order, withdraw!"
"Whoa!"
After the soldier was slapped in the face, he didn't dare to say more, and immediately took four or five hundred soldiers under his command to escort Guo Tu to the bank of the Mache River.
Ma Chao followed closely behind, but he was a step slower.
As soon as he rushed to the shore, Guo Tu happened to board the boat and left the riverbank.
"Guts rats, villains, waste, aren't you afraid that your subordinates will cut off your head to vent their anger?" Zhang Ji shouted angrily, "Villain, villain!"
Guo Tu, who lived for the rest of his life after the catastrophe, gasped for breath countless times one after another before he calmed down his pounding heart.
That's why he shouted at Zhang Ji on the shore, "Zhang Ji, you and I have just come to Japan, I hope that the next time we meet, you are still so arrogant!" You dog's head, I'm going to keep it for you today."
"You dog, let go of the arrows!" Zhang Ji was a little angry, and immediately ordered the arrow to be released.
Just now he forgot that the cavalry under his command was also an archer, and he suddenly remembered it when Guo Tu was angry.
Thousands of soldiers quickly unsaddled their bows and crossbows, and fired at the departing boats.
Guo Tu was startled when he saw the overwhelming crossbow arrows, and hurriedly got into the cabin.
He could still hide it, but the other soldiers on the ship didn't have so much luck.
估摸着彻底拉开距离后,郭图这才从船舱中走了出来,到了外面的一看,他惊骇到双目失神。 There was not a single living person on the deck, and it was full of crossbow arrows as far as the eye could see.
He took away barely close to five hundred soldiers, and was directly taken away by Zhang Ji in this round of arrow rain.
Guo Tu wiped his face, slowly sat down on the deck, and muttered, "Don't blame me, the cabin is so big, there is no way, if you want to blame, blame the people who killed you."
escaped smoothly, and after crossing the north shore, Guo Tu rushed to the Chinese army non-stop to meet Yuan Shao.
"General, lowly duty...... Sin deserves death!"
Before he could enter the account, Guo Tu first howled and cried, and kneaded the two eye sockets into rabbit eyes with his fists.
Yuan Shao was drinking with Xu You in the big tent of the Chinese army and chatting freely with the beauties.
Although he often scolded Xu You for being an alcoholic, he almost never left wine and beauty.
"Who's mourning out there?" Yuan Shao frowned and asked left and right.
"General Hui, it's Guo Jianjun who has returned." The squire whispered. new
"Guo Tu is here?" Yuan Shao was overjoyed, "Quick, let him in."
Guo Tu was crying while entering the tent.
Yuan Shao, who was still full of joy, saw Guo Tu's appearance, and his face gradually turned cold, "What's the matter with you?"
It's just in the wine
Under the effect, he didn't think much about it at all.
At this moment, when I saw Guo Tu's appearance, I suddenly remembered that Guo Tu seemed to have crossed the river with the vanguard soldiers.
Guo Tu knelt down in the tent with a sad expression, crying and kowtowing like pounding garlic, "If you are lowly and lose the trust of the general, you will be ashamed of the general, and you should die for your lowly position!"
"Don't cry, what's going on? Speak!" Yuan Shao flicked his sleeves and shouted.
