Chapter 24: The Burning of the Shrine (5)

The cool breeze was blowing, the moon shadow was lowering, and at this moment, there was an 'army' that was not an army on the official road thirty miles away from the Changshe.

Why do you say that, if nothing else, the contingent of thousands of people is undoubtedly with refugees, except for the flags that are sporadically dragged on the ground, and some people with weapons in their hands.

Not only were they poorly dressed, but they were all disgraced, and many of them had their hair burned. Needless to say, this team is the remnants of the Bocai army who fled back from the long society.

"Where should I go now?" , a man in the team with a disheveled head, said to Bocai, who had lost his soul.

"Hey, what else can I do now, I can only talk about escaping to Ruyang." Bo Cai looked at his original army of tens of thousands, and there were only a few thousands left in pain, and with the annihilation of the army, his original courage was gone.

"Why is the lord's house near and far away, isn't it possible to take refuge in Yingyin?" The other will ask.

"Now the morale of the Han army is like a rainbow, and if you go to Yingyin, you are looking for death, just with these people and horses, how can you stop tens of thousands of Han troops with the spirit of new victory." Although Bocai was born recklessly, it is not accidental that he can cause what he is doing today in a short period of time, and his ability to judge the situation alone is beyond the reach of many people.

Bo Cai then looked around and said: "Fortunately, all the soldiers who ran out this time are elite soldiers, and it won't take long for the soldiers of the day to recover, and then the head of Huangfu Song will be used to pay tribute to the dead warriors." ”

"I'm waiting for the handsome horse to look at the 、、、、、、" Looking at Bocai, who had recovered his essence, the henchmen on the side hurriedly expressed their loyalty.

It's just that when the subordinates expressed their loyalty, they didn't notice that the forest next to the official road was always emitting sporadic birdsong.

'Goo~~Goo~~~~Goo~~~~~'

"General, the sentry has sent news that the enemy army is about 5,000 people, 100 war horses, and carrying a large banner." In a green gauze tent, a soldier dressed in the armor of the Yue Cavalry Battalion whispered to the big man who was squinting at Danfeng and closing his eyes.

"It's good to come, order Yang Feng and Li Le to lie in ambush in the mountains and forests on both sides of the official road, and when our army is engaged in battle with the enemy, light torches, wave flags and shout, and strengthen the army's might, which is bound to annihilate the enemy." Hearing the report from the Tanqi rider, the big man slowly opened his Danfeng eyes, and said plainly in a flash of fine light. The momentum seems to be several times more than the enemy, just like a chicken and a dog.

Yes, the person who lurks is Guan Yubu, who has been waiting for a long time. After the order was completed, Guan Yu got up and pulled up the cold and glamorous saw inserted on the ground, looked around at the high-spirited people and said, "Brothers, I look at the red sky all night and envy the robe of the Changshe meritorious service." Hahaha, now it's our turn, now let those local chickens and dogs know what the power of Yue Qi is, all get on the horse, and get ready to fight!! ”

Although the words were plain, but from the mouth of the majestic Guan Yu, it had become a bold statement, and one by one the soldiers got on their horses, as if they would follow Guan Yu to the banquet and walked towards the official road formation.

Dealing with these routs, the arrogant Guan Yu didn't bother to ambush at all, and directly set up a cone battle formation on the official road. The flat official road is just right for Guan Yu's 200 Yue knights, which is suitable for charging.

"Brother Yang, why can the Yue cavalry battalion charge and kill the enemy, we can only wave the flag and shout, can the credit be robbed by the Yue cavalry battalion!" , After hearing the order, Li Le complained after saying goodbye to the arrogant Yue knights.

"Yes, along the way, after marching to our palace, now that we are fighting, we still have to watch the battle from the sidelines, I am afraid that Jiang Qi will look down on me and wait for me to be born recklessly. What's so great about him, isn't he just relying on the children of the family? What qualifications do you have to yell at me and wait for five or six, and if you provoke you, you won't give face. Yang Feng complained with the same dissatisfaction.

"Then what's the solution! People are under the eaves, who made me wait under them! Li Le agreed.

"Hmph, if you want to talk about combat strength, I am half a little worse than the cavalry camp in the Three Rivers Knights, and if I make war achievements, I am afraid that I will not have a place in the army. Now that I have arrived at the Changshe, it is not Jiang Qi who has the final say, if Jiang Qi doesn't know each other again, I will take my brother to the two Zhonglang generals. Yang Feng said with a sneer.

"What's my brother's plan?" Looking at Yang Feng, who was full of confidence, Li Le seemed to see hope, and said with a smile on his face.

"I'm waiting, so, like this、、、 as long as I have made meritorious contributions, why worry about not having a meritorious reputation." Seeing that Li Le was not an idle master, Yang Feng glanced at Guan Yu, who had already walked away, and his eyes turned to Li Le and whispered, and his face was wonderful.

、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、

"Qu Shuai let the little ones take a rest, they have been running for two hours, and it seems that the Han army has not chased after them." , In the Yellow Turban rout, a person dressed as a soldier next to Bocai said.

"No, although everyone is very tired, but after all, this place is still under attack by the Han army, and we must rush to Yingchuan to replenish while it is dark, otherwise there are likely to be deserters at dawn." Bo Cai glanced at his long subordinates and said resolutely.

"However, if the Han army attacks at this moment, I'm afraid our army won't even have the strength to resist." The man still persuaded.

"Don't worry, the Han army is now rushing to grab merit in Changshe, so there is time to take care of our 、、、、、", Bo Cai said with a miserable smile on his subordinates' concerns, but before he could finish speaking, he saw torches suddenly lit on both sides of the official road.

"Protect Qu Shuai 、、、、、、", looking at the sudden ambush, the pro-soldiers who reacted first held their knives while shouting to protect Bocai. But in this way, Bocai's whereabouts were also exposed.

Surrounded by his own soldiers, Bocai, who reacted, saw a nine-foot-tall man on the official road with a big knife beating his horse in front of him under the light of the torch, and said: "Traitor, Guan Yu and Guan Yun have been waiting for a long time, and they have not dismounted and surrendered."

With the words, Guan Yu's loud voice spread through the hearts of every Yellow Turban Army, and in a moment, their originally frightened hearts were shattered.

"Haha、、、、 it looks like God won't bless me." Bo Cai looked at the flags on both sides of the official road, shouting like thunder, he originally thought that he could make a comeback, but now he can only sigh to the sky.

"Qu Shuai, don't be like this, I'll wait to block this fang, Qu Shuai will take the opportunity to leave, and avenge the little ones in the future." , The pro-soldier who had originally persuaded Dao Bo to rest looked at the situation in front of him and knew that everything was dangerous. But for the sake of the great cause, he had to fight, and after speaking, he raised his sword and ran towards Guan Yu, and at the same time, the two generals in leather armor on the side also looked at each other and went to help the battle together.

Looking at the three people who were rushing, Guan Yu snorted coldly with disdain, and shook the reins of the horse to meet him personally.

When the two horses passed, the big knife that Guan Yu had been dragging turned and flirted, and a blood mist appeared in the air in an instant. After the two horses missed, there was a sound of landing behind them.

Look at the person who came first, his waist has been broken into two knots, and the blood has flowed all over the ground. However, Guan Yu did not appreciate his spoils, and continued to move forward, and in an instant, he swept towards the two stunned rebels, and two round balls flew into the air.

After killing three people in one fight, Guan Yu didn't want to stop there, and actually rode his horse directly into the enemy camp. Facing the fierce and mighty Guan Yu, the Yellow Turban Army, which had already assembled to prepare for confrontation, couldn't help but consciously give way to a passage, and for a while, no one dared to stop Guan Yu from passing.

Seeing Guan Yu rushing towards him with a knife, Bo Cai hadn't reacted before Guan Yu was close, and it was too late when he drew his knife. The last memory left in Bo Cai's mind after the cold light was a corpse that was getting farther and farther away from him and constantly spurting blood, and the knife in the corpse's hand had not yet been withdrawn.

Soon, Guan Yu, who was boasting about his head with a big knife in his hand, returned to his own formation, and he only took a few breaths of effort to come and go, but in such a short time, he had already killed three enemy generals and one enemy chief.

Turning the horse's head, Guan Yu first looked at the treasure knife in his hand that drank blood for the first time, and then raised the head of the enemy chieftain high, and shouted loudly: "Yue Qi is mighty、、、、、、"

"The general is mighty, the general is mighty~~~~~~" Looking at Guan Yu's mighty appearance like a god, warm cheers broke out in the Han military camp at the same time.

In the face of such a military might of the Han army, some people in the Yellow Turban Army have unconsciously loosened their weapons and are ready to surrender. Of course, being able to capture an army at such a price is also something Guan Yu wants to see.

However, in this good situation, something changed, and the knights of the Three Rivers, who were originally shouting and cheering, suddenly attacked, and began to release arrows without ordering. The rows of sharp arrows from the crossbows easily penetrated the bodies of the Yellow Turban Army, which was not protected by armor, and there was a scream and blood mist for a while.

In the face of the sudden killing, those Yellow Turban soldiers who originally wanted to surrender knew that they would definitely die today. They all grabbed their weapons and rushed towards the Han army, surrendering in their hearts is death, resistance and maybe some life.

In an instant, the Yellow Turban Army, which was still threatened by Guan Yu and Huwei, turned into groups of dead soldiers, fearlessly facing the Han army, which was a good soldier, and launched a death charge. After hundreds of fallen comrades, the Yellow Turban Army and the Han Army finally began to engage in hand-to-hand combat.

For the sudden change, Guan Yu didn't have time to blame the Sanhe Battalion who acted without permission, and hurriedly took the Yue Cavalry Battalion to turn and run.

Originally, the two armies were only two hundred paces apart, and if they did not run, the cavalry would not be able to exert their power at all. After taking two hundred steps back as they turned, the Yue cavalry battalion began to shoot at the Yellow Turban Army, which had fought against the water and had no discipline at all.

Rows of sharp arrows are shot, and there is no need to aim at all, and the rain of arrows, which was originally lethal at fifty paces, can already be shot into the Yellow Turban Army with only clothes to protect the body from a hundred steps away.

Watching the rows of comrades fall and fight against the water, no one in the Yellow Turban Army retreated, but continued to launch death charges under the stimulation of blood.

Thirty steps later, the Yue cavalry battalion, which had already shot a quiver, still did not see any signs of defeat and retreat of the enemy army, and saw that the knights of the three rivers had fallen into the enemy camp, Guan Yu hurriedly ordered the soldiers of the Yue cavalry battalion to take up the bow, pull out the sword around their waists, and rush into the enemy camp to start killing.

As the killing began, Guan Yu knew why Huangfu Song was forced into Changshe City.

The high-speed charging war horses kept knocking down the charging Yellow Turban Army, and the nearly 1,000-pound war horses crashed into the thin people, and the result can be imagined, and for a while, the sound of broken muscles and bones echoed on this desolate official road.

Then the Yellow Turban sergeants who were lucky enough not to be hit ushered in a tragic scene, after breaking into the enemy army, the Vietnamese cavalry soldiers kept kicking their mounts to speed up, and at the same time wielding the sword in their hands to reap the lives of the people. With the impact of the warhorse, the sharp war knife was like the scythe of death, and there were stumps and broken arms everywhere it slashed.

The swords were swung and the lucky ones were slashed to death, and those who were unfortunate enough to fall to the ground and wail were soon trampled into mud by the hooves of the oncoming horses. Corpses were strewn all over the ground, and a road paved with flesh and blood appeared behind the Yue Cavalry Battalion.

Perhaps it was also the luck of the Yellow Turban sergeant, the cavalry of the Yue Cavalry Battalion who charged this time was only 200 people, if the whole battalion charged at this moment, I am afraid that this place would be purgatory for adults.

Because of the small number of sergeants in the Yue Cavalry, none of the Yellow Turban sergeants who were lucky enough to bypass dared to turn back, and they threw away all the superfluous items on their bodies and ran forward without their lives. And in order to relieve the siege of the Three Rivers Knights, Guan Yu didn't care about the fleeing enemy army, and continued to attack the army that was still in the melee.

Guan Yu's army fought a battle until after dawn, and the cavalry battalion that came to chase the defeated army arrived. Faced with a full body of stumps and broken arms, many soldiers who had fought fiercely all night couldn't help but vomit.

As the only cavalry under Huangfu Song, the Tun knights, who are also five battalions, looked at the tired soldiers of the Yue Cavalry Battalion and did not say too much, and took the initiative to take on the task of cleaning up the battlefield.

Soon the statistics of the battle results came out, and in one night, Guan Yu's troops destroyed more than 1,300 enemies, including Bocai and below, and captured more than 1,000 prisoners, including 300 wounded soldiers, and nearly half of the Yellow Turban Army escaped.

The casualties of the Han army were also counted, and the Sanhe Battalion killed 73 people and wounded 100 people, of which more than 10 were seriously injured, which can be said to be more than half of the dead and wounded. More than 10 people were wounded in the Yue cavalry battalion, three were seriously wounded, and one was killed in battle. The seriously wounded and killed were all soldiers who had been transferred to the Three Rivers Battalion as commanders.

The cavalry battalion that came to the aid also killed five people in battle, and more than 30 people were injured to varying degrees.

In the face of several times the enemy, only more than 200 casualties were inflicted on the enemy, and thousands of prisoners were captured, which can be described as a brilliant record. However, facing Wu Fu, the captain of the Tuncai Battalion who came to report the good news, Guan Yu couldn't laugh. Guan Yu knew that he could completely annihilate the enemy army without a single soldier, but he didn't think about it, but he was destroyed by his own subordinates.

Looking at the soldiers sitting on the ground to heal their wounds, Guan Yu had mixed feelings for a while, especially when he knew that the two culprits Yang Feng and Li Le had already escaped in the battle, Guan Yu couldn't wait to chase the two in person immediately.

But as the main general, he couldn't do this, and after sending a group of men and horses to pursue, Guan Yu began to return from the camp with the wrapped head of the enemy chief and the corpse wrapped in horse leather.

After Guan Yu left, Wu Fu, who was escorting the prisoners, could not be calm in his heart, not only did the Yue Cavalry Battalion he saw have super combat effectiveness, but also Guan Yu, who he had just met, couldn't see through it.

As the captain of the 5th Battalion Shitun Cavalry, Wu Fu and Lu Zhi went north that day, but when they set off, they went south because Huangfu Song had no cavalry. Originally, Wu Fu was going to use Bocai's head to tell the world that they were no worse than Yue Cai, but now it was too late.
