Han Dao world

Chapter 361
The armored cavalry assault was the last straw that broke the camel's back, and helping Luo Han flee was the spark that ignited the haystack on the camel's back.

In an instant, the Xianbei people collapsed.

The retreat horn sounded one after another, and all the Xianbei people turned their horses and prepared to evacuate.

However, tens of thousands of people are scattered on the battlefield for several miles, and orderly evacuation is impossible.Everyone wants to take the first step and get out of the sea of ​​suffering, and collisions are inevitable.

The chaos expanded rapidly, and except for the outer knights who retreated smoothly, most Xianbei people fell into a predicament with no way out.

Some people choose to charge hard and raise their swords at their companions.

Some people chose to surrender, got off their horses before the arrival of the armored cavalry of the Han army, knelt down and kowtowed, while carefully avoiding the horseshoes of the Han army to avoid being directly trampled to death.

Wherever Ma Chao, Yan Xing, and Guo Wu go, please lower your voice.

Ma Chao rushed from left to right, trying to find a way out of the chaotic battlefield, and continued to pursue Fu Luohan.

But he was quickly disappointed.

The scene was too chaotic, and the Xianbei people couldn't escape even if they wanted to. There was no way for him to chase and kill Fu Luohan.

Moreover, the armored cavalry has limited stamina and cannot pursue long distances. Even if he can break through the encirclement, it is impossible for him to catch up with Fu Luohan.

Ma Chao roared angrily.

The pressure in front of Lu Bu dropped sharply, he successfully broke through the resistance of the Xianbei people, began to accelerate, and passed Ma Chao and others.

Seeing Ma Chao's panic-stricken appearance, Lu Bu guessed that Fu Luohan might still be alive, and then ordered to charge forward along the river bank, preparing to bypass Shuofang City not far away, and pursue Fu Luohan.

If Fu Luohan wanted to escape from the battlefield, there were two ways: one was to go west along the Dahe River and take the Jiming Fort;

If it was the latter, he would have a chance to intercept Fu Luohan.

Because there was Shuofang City near the river in front, the Xianbei people did not dare to flee along the river, which gave Lu Bu a chance to quickly leave the battlefield.

Behind Lu Bu, General Du Liao Zhang Yang also chose to pursue along the river.He took advantage of Gao Shun's position and galloped past Gao Shun's back.The horse's hoof kicked up the water, muddying the river and splashing the backs of the soldiers in Gao Shun's formation.

Gao Shun's subordinates didn't say a word, and didn't even look back.

The Huns blushed with anger, but dared not speak out.

Gao Shun didn't look back either, and sounded the war drum at the right time, ordering the soldiers to shout in unison.

"The descendant will not die—"

The Xianbei who had been killed so dizzy heard the Han army shouting, at first thought that the Han army infantry was going to take the initiative to attack, and their legs became weak in fright.Gao Shun's record in Chengyi left a deep shadow on them.They breathed a sigh of relief when they found that the Han army only shouted and did not attack.

At this time, Gao Shun also realized that many Xianbei people could not understand Chinese, so he immediately called Huchuquan and asked him to shout with the Huns.

The languages ​​of the Huns and the Xianbei have many similarities, and even if there are some differences, the general idea can be understood.

Hearing the Huns yelling "Those who surrender will not die", the desperate Xianbei finally understood. After a moment of hesitation, someone chose to surrender.

First, the Xianbei people in front of Gaoshun put down their weapons, and gathered together obediently, holding their heads, or squatting or kneeling.There are even those who are so tired that they simply lie on the ground and let others slaughter them.

Someone demonstrates, and someone follows.

After a while, thousands of Xianbei knights raised their hands and surrendered.

When Liu Xie entered the battlefield, what he saw was that Gao Shun, who had less than a thousand soldiers, had captured thousands of Xianbei cavalry, and more people joined them. A group, spectacular.

"Gao Shun is a general." Liu Xie praised.

"I, A Weng, said the same thing." Lu Xiaohuan said hastily, "He also asked me to learn how to use soldiers from Uncle Ziping."

Liu Xie smiled without saying a word.

Lu Bu did know Gao Shun's ability, but Lu Bu didn't trust Gao Shun, and he couldn't really use Gao Shun's talent.

His vision determines his achievements.

Liu Xie slowly reined in his mount.

The outcome has been decided, and the rest of the pursuit has already been arranged. The generals will follow the orders, and there is no need for him, the emperor, to personally attack people.

He was ready to kill someone, but Fu Luohan didn't stick to it till the end.

After all, Fu Luohan is not even the overlord of the grassland, and he is not worthy to be his opponent.

-

Hearing the horn sound of the Xianbei retreating in the distance, Ma Teng ordered the city gate to be opened, and nearly ten thousand cavalry mounted their horses and filed out of the city to intercept and kill the fleeing Xianbei cavalry.

The Xianbei people just wanted to flee for their lives, they had no desire to fight, and they couldn't organize an effective counterattack.

Ma Teng harvested to his heart's content, and the harvest was rich.

Zhang Xiu led the Yulin Cavalry to arrive, and seeing Ma Teng commanding the army to intercept and kill the Xianbei people and collect the spoils, he couldn't help laughing contemptuously, and ordered to cross the battlefield to continue chasing and killing Fu Luohan.

After half an hour, Ma Chao rushed to the base of the city, and saw that Ma Teng was still counting the prisoners, Pang De, Ma Dai and others were also there, he was shocked.

"Ah Weng, why don't you go after Luo Han?"

"Fu Luohan?" Ma Teng shook his head casually. "I didn't see it."

Ma Chao patted his thigh regretfully. "I defeated Fu Luohan, but unfortunately I couldn't take his life. I thought my father would be able to stop him and make a great contribution, but I still missed it."

"What did you miss?" Ma Teng said with a satisfied smile: "You have already killed his two sons and forced him to fight the emperor to win this big victory. The credit is already great, why bother to fight again? Meng Qi, As a human being, you should be content, accept what you see, and never be greedy.”

Ma Chao didn't want to talk to him, so he called Pang De and Ma Dai, and told them to put down their work immediately and lead their troops to pursue Fu Luohan.

Pang De and Ma Dai looked at Ma Teng in embarrassment, but Ma Teng waved his hand disapprovingly. "Since Meng Qi asked you to go, you can go."

Pang De and Ma Dai agreed, turned around to summon their subordinates, and rushed away.

Ma Chao also wanted to chase, but was stopped by Ma Teng. "You are now the servant of Huben, leading a hundred armored cavalry to fight. How can you leave your subordinates and pursue alone? Go back to the emperor immediately. Protecting the safety of the emperor is your most important task now. Although the victory or defeat has been decided, Xianbei surrendered Tens of thousands, who knows if there will be any accidents?"

Ma Chao thought it was reasonable, so he gave up his plan to pursue and led his armored cavalry back.

Guo Wu and Yan Xing had already taken the first step and returned to Liu Xie.

Seeing Ma Chao's return, Liu Xie didn't say anything, but asked about the casualties.

Ma Chao was the first to attack, and the last to return, with the greatest loss.A total of eleven horses were lost, three knights were killed, two were seriously injured, and thirty-five were slightly injured.

In contrast, the subordinates of Guo Wu and Yan Xing were only slightly injured, and no one was killed in battle. The serious injuries and losses of war horses were all in single digits.

Faced with such a gap, Ma Chao, who was excited at first, consciously shut his mouth without Liu Xie saying anything.

"How is General Zhengxi?"

Ma Chao saluted respectfully. "My father is intercepting and killing Xianbei's defeated soldiers, and I will come to see you later."

Liu Xie nodded. "General Zhengxi is prudent, which is rare."

Xun You went on to say: "Your Majesty's words are true. There are many strong and brave warriors around Your Majesty, but there is no such prudent and veteran minister as General Zhengxi. It should be of great use."

Ma Chao suddenly regained his spirits.

He didn't have much contact with Xun You, and he never thought that Xun You would speak for their father and son.

Liu Xie looked at Jia Xu, who nodded with a smile. "The minister seconded the proposal."
