Chapter 78 Cao Cao's Iron Knight
Chapter 78
"What's the matter? Why did the Yellow Turban Army suddenly go wild?"
Looking at the sudden morale of the Yellow Turban Army, an officer and general shouted as if he were crazy.
"Don't panic. The army is arrayed. The Yellow Turban Army is just a rabble. What kind of combat power can it have? The army moves forward to stop the Yellow Turban Army."
Looking at the Yellow Turban Army rushing up, Lu Zhi responded calmly and immediately ordered the army to launch. Since the morale of the Yellow Turban Army was greatly boosted, the officers and soldiers should use iron blood to give the Yellow Turban Army a head-on attack. Otherwise, if the morale of the Yellow Turban Army in front of him infected the 150,000 Yellow Turban Army, which is still in the city, will be killed all together. Lu Zhi 70,000 officers and soldiers, I'm afraid they can no longer control the situation.
Originally, there were 70,000 officers and soldiers, and the 70,000 yellow scarf army against Zhang Liang was just right. However, there were still 150,000 yellow scarves in Guangzong City. Lu Zhi sent 20,000 people to stay there. Even so, Lu Zhi was still uneasy. He really had no idea. After all, he faced too many people, and he had no good way in a hurry. So Lu Zhi did not expect how much loss this battle could cause to the Yellow Turban Army. He only hoped to cause certain psychological pressure to Zhang Liang. In this way, Lu Zhi also has more initiative in the battle against the yellow scarf.
On the battlefield, the arrows are like locusts, covering the sky and the sun. The Yellow Turban Army and the officers and the army collided with each other, and another cruel battle began. Although the officers and soldiers are strong and well trained, their fighting spirit is not high. They have no faith. They just know how to obey the orders of the superiors and eat food and become soldiers. Although the Yellow Turban Army is a wuhe The fighting power is not strong, but it has the support of faith. Everyone strives to be the first and is not afraid of death. The two met, but they also killed a match.
For these officers and soldiers under Lu Zhi, in the past few months, they have been galloping with Lu Zhi in the land of Hebei and are invincible. It is true that they have never met such a brave yellow scarf army.
For these yellow scarf soldiers who came from Yingchuan, they were originally golden believers living outside. Now that they have finally come to Guangzong, they are about to see the god-like Zhang Jiao in their minds. However, at this time, the officers and soldiers came out to make trouble. They can't stand it and dare to be unfavorable to their masters. , surrounded Zhang Jiao, and now prevents them from seeing Zhang Jiao, which really makes them angry. All this anger is mixed together, forming an unparalleled combat power, which suddenly bursts out.
Just outside Guangzong City, when the yellow scarf army and the officers were killing inexsoluble, a calm young man with a yellow scarf in Guangzong City stared at the battle outside the city without blinking. This person was the famous yellow scarf general Bocai.
"If you send someone back to General Tiangong, he will say that the general will lead the troops to the rescue, and he will go out of the city to greet him, and ask General Tiangong for his permission."
Only then did I see it clearly. Outside the city was Zhang Liang's people, he said to a messenger beside him.
Not long after, the messenger had returned to the side of the general in the city, and also brought a tall and powerful young general.
"When General Guan Hai is here, is it General Tiangong? Is it possible to order General Guan Hai to go out of the city to welcome General Guan Hai?"
Bo just saw the young general behind the messenger. First, he was shocked and hurried forward to salute. There was no way to take martial arts as the clan in the army. Those who are strong in martial arts will naturally be more respected.
"General Tiangong has an order. He commands you and me to take the troops out of the city to welcome the general back to the city."
After Guan Hai finished speaking, Xiang Bo nodded, and the two immediately went down to the city to rectify the soldiers and horses.
Outside Guangzong City, the Yellow Turban Army has been killed together with the officers and soldiers, and it is inexorable to kill for a while. Seeing this scene, Lu Zhi's face was solemn, he sighed slightly, and he had made up his mind.
"Order Cao Cao, the cavalry will immediately cover up from the flanks. If we continue to fight like this, our army will lose too much."
Originally, Lu Zhi wanted to take advantage of the fatigue of the Yellow Turban Army, and his army waited for work to teach the Yellow Turban Army a lesson, and then wait for the opportunity to move. However, the development of the battlefield situation was beyond Lu Zhi's expectations. The bravery of the Yellow Turban Army caused a lot of casualties to the officers and soldiers. Lu Zhi had to launch an army in advance. Attack, let the army withdraw from the battle.
You should know that once the officer army is bitten by Zhang Liang's yellow scarf army, if there is another large army in Guangzong City, the officer army will be in danger of destruction. As the commander-in-chief of the army, Lu Zhi has to deal with, but the Yellow Turban Army in the whole Hebei area, every champion soldier, is Lu Zhi's heart, and Lu Zhi really can't afford to lose it.
Just as the Yellow Turban Army and the officers were killing, the flag flashed among the officers and soldiers. A team of 7,000 or 8,000 cavalry in the distance drove over. As the cavalry approached, the earth began to tremble, and the loud noise was endless. In front of the formation, there was a black flag with the word "Cao" written on the flag, which was majestic and upright. It was Cao Cao who led the soldiers to kill.
"What should we do if the enemy rose up and suddenly attacked our flank?"
Seeing the sudden appearance of the officer's cavalry, Zhang Liang was a little shocked for a moment. He did not expect that he took the yellow scarf army to Guangzong, which was originally unexpected, but the officer's army could make arrangements in such a short time and send cavalry to ambush and attack his flanks.
"The last general is not talented. He is willing to lead our cavalry to block the enemy cavalry and win time for our army to enter Guangzong."
Zhang Liang was surprised that a general had come to his side and told himself to be brave. Zhang Liang turned his head and saw that it was his general Pei Yuanshao.
"Okay, I will entrust all the 4,000 cavalry of our army to you. You must protect the flank of our army."
When Zhang Liang saw that Pei Yuanshao was willing to go, he was moved and quickly sent Pei Yuanshao to fight.
"General Ren Gong, my subordinate Zang Ba is quite brave, but he lacks sand training. Why don't he let him go with General Pei?"
Seeing that Pei Yuanshao was going to meet Cao Cao, Lv Bu on one side quickly sent Zang Ba to go with him. Lv Bu did not think that Zang Ba lacked battlefield training, but Lv Bu was very fond of Pei Yuanshao and wanted to win some emotional bonus points, and now was an opportunity.
"Okay, with the help of Zang Ba, Pei Yuanshao is more confident."
Seeing that Lv Bu went with Zang Ba, Pei Yuanshao first agreed. These days, Pei Yuanshao and Zang Ba have a lot of contact. He knows Zang Ba's ability and also wants to make friends with Zang Ba. However, the feelings killed on the battlefield are better than any friendship.
"Very good, that's it. I'll entrust the flank of our army to you."
Zhang Liang nodded, agreed, and then bowed his hand to the two. The two immediately returned the gift and set off together.
After Pei Yuanshao and Zang Ba set out, Zhang Liang took the lead and rushed to the city of Guangzong with the yellow scarf army. Zhang Liang understands that now is the time to buy time. As long as you reach Guangzong City, you will no longer have to be afraid of the officers and soldiers. At that time, Zhang Liang's 70,000 yellow towels, plus 150,000 yellow scarves in Guangzong City, it will be an army of 220,000. It is not a little more chances to deal with 70,000 officers and soldiers.
At this time, the gate of Guangzong City suddenly opened wide, and a group of cavalry roared out. At the beginning, a young general was Guan Hai. Seeing that Guan Hai was in the lead, the yellow scarf army cavalry rushed out, but not at the side where Zhang Liang's army was, but directly towards the direction of the army's battalion. It turned out to be a siege. Wei saved Zhao.
After Guanhai's cavalry came out of Guangzong City, another general appeared at the gate of Guangzong City. This man was young and powerful, and his eyebrows were full of heroicness, but it was that wave of talent. After Bocai came out of the city, he did not rush to fight, but mobilized a team of infantry and archers to protect around the gate of Guangzong City, leaving one in the middle. It is obvious that Bo wants to protect Zhang Liang's army from entering the city.
Seeing that Guangzongcheng finally sent troops, Lu Zhi sighed slightly.
"Mingjin, let's withdraw the army."
At this level of the battle in front of him, Lu Zhi has already made it clear in his heart that the war in Jizhou is no longer like before. Lu Zhi has tried his best to create the situation in Jizhou these days, and I'm afraid it will be destroyed. However, as an important minister of the imperial court, Lu Zhi could only do his best.
Under Lu Zhi's order, the sergeants immediately became busy. Taking advantage of the impact of Cao Cao's cavalry and causing psychological pressure on the Yellow Turban Army, the sound of gongs in the official camp sounded. A team and the Yellow Turban Army killed the officers and soldiers together and began to retreat like a tide. Many officers and archers formed a phalanx at the gate of the camp and made a defensive against Huang. The attack of the scarf army covered the retreating officers and soldiers back to the camp.
At this time, the yellow scarf cavalry led by Pei Yuanshao and Zang Ba had already fought with Cao Cao's cavalry. Cao Cao was already unruly and regarded the heroes of the world as nothing. He looked down on these yellow scarf soldiers. Seeing the yellow scarf army fighting for his faith and Zhang Jiao, Cao Cao just sneered and thought that these yellow scarf soldiers were stupid.
But at the same time, Cao Cao is very envious of Zhang Jiao. There are so many people who are willing to follow him. Cao Cao thought more than once: I don't know when I, Cao Cao, can respond like this, be respected, hold the world, wave their hands and throw feet, and decide the life and death of thousands of people. However, thinking of this, Cao Cao not only smiled bitterly. The world of this big man is the world of the old Liu family. At best, he is not the protector of the old Liu family. Why do you want such a big revenge?
The officers' cavalry and the yellow scarf cavalry collide with each other, kill each other, and take off each other's heads. The battle of this cavalry is different from the battle of the infantry. The morale of the infantry's battle of the yellow scarf army is high, which quickly makes up for the lack of combat experience. With the courage of a life-and-death battle, it tied with the officer army. However, in the face of the cavalry of the officers, the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army seemed to be vulnerable. The officers only made a few sprints, and rushed the Cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army to pieces. In addition, Zhang Liang's cavalry was already small, and the number fell again.
Fortunately, Pei Yuanshao and Zang Ba are both brave people, rushing left and right with hundreds of elites, bringing a lot of casualties to the officers and soldiers, but buying a lot of time for Zhang Liang. With the retreat of the officer infantry, the infantry of the Yellow Turban Army quickly approached the city of Guangzong. Under the protection of Guangzong City, they began to enter the city one after another.
At this time, there were less than half of the yellow scarf cavalry beside Pei Yuanshao and Zang Ba. Looking at Cao Cao's posture, he actually let his cavalry surround the yellow scarf cavalry in the middle and make the flag turn over. The cavalry of those officers and soldiers actually raised their knives and surrounded these yellow scarf cavalry, trying to turn this Some yellow scarf cavalry hanged them in one fell swoop.
