Great Military Division

Chapter 245 The old thief Dong Zhuo, his prestige has not diminished in the past!
drive-!
Dong Zhuo galloped out on his horse and rushed towards the rear of the allied cavalry.

He took out the carved bow under the saddle, drew out the feathers and arrows, and put them on the strings. His body was in line with the rhythm of the galloping horse, and he pulled the bowstring violently, like a full moon.

call-

Dong Zhuo adjusted his breath and exhaled lightly. The bowstring of the carved bow in his hand had been stretched to the extreme, and the whole body made a "creaking" sound. The arrow was aimed at the enemy cavalry a hundred paces ahead.

The sound of rumbling horseshoes filled the entire battlefield, so that Dong Zhuo's [-] elite cavalry came galloping from behind, failing to attract the attention of the allied forces in the fierce battle.

The enemy cavalry was holding a red and green flag, swinging back and forth non-stop, unaware of the impending disaster, all the cavalry around him joined the battle, and there was no shelter around them.

As the distance continued to get closer, Dong Zhuo lightly released his fingers that were hooked to the bowstring. In an instant, the sharp arrowhead shot across like a shooting star, piercing the soldier's leather armor, tearing off the warm flesh and blood, and piercing the soldier's body. Its heart beats to shatter.

"Fire arrows!"

One hit.

Already startled the snake.

Dong Zhuo gave the order without hesitation.

His personal guards are different from the rest of the Xiliang Xiaoqi, each of them is carefully selected, everyone has dozens of combat experience, and each of them can ride horses and shoot arrows, and can shoot bows left and right.

Although this troop strength is not many, its combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.

The Xiaoqi personal guards had already been prepared, and a wave of arrows suddenly rose into the sky. After gathering perfectly in the air, they immediately covered the Allied cavalry who were fighting fiercely.

This wave of arrow rain is not ordinary!
Don't look at it with only a few hundred arrows, but the density is quite high. A wave of arrows hits the past and is surrounding and annihilating Dong Min. There was a gap.

The allied cavalry around were startled and turned their heads to look back.

Seeing Dong Zhuo flying over on horseback, Xiliang Xiaoqi behind him were all mighty and majestic, holding a longbow, twisting the bow and setting an arrow, and was about to start the second round of bow and crossbow attack, he was so frightened that he was dumbfounded and frightened.

"Then that is Xiliang Xiaoqi?"

"Here. How come. There will be Xiliang Xiaoqi!"

"Damn it! Could it be that the fat man at the head is Dong Zhuo?"

"Then who were we chasing before?"

"."

Dong Zhuo led Xiaoqi personal guards to help, like a heavyweight depth bomb, immediately shocked the Allied cavalry who surrounded and killed "Dong Zhuo" like a tide.

Many princes sensed the abnormal movement outside, and turned their heads to look. Dong Zhuo's burly and majestic figure hit the depths of his heart. Although he couldn't see his appearance clearly, the fierce aura that rushed to his face already proved the identity of the opponent.

"It's Dong Zhuo!"

Yuan Shao exclaimed.

Although, the besieged "Dong Zhuo" wore an iron helmet and tǒng sleeve armor, which should be one of the highest-standard armors, and only real generals can wear them.

But
Yuan Shao still recognized at a glance that the burly man killed from behind was the real Dong Zhuo.

Because, that ferocious and brutal aura is definitely beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Only Dong Zhuo!

To exude such a terrifying aura.

"what?"

Not far away, Yuan Shu exclaimed, subconsciously turned his head to look, his eyes nearly burst.

He was closer to Dong Zhuo, and he recognized him at a glance as the real Dong Zhuo: "It's really Dong Zhuo, so who are we besieging?"

Yuan Shu's head buzzed!
now.

All the attention of the Allied cavalry was focused on "Dong Zhuo", thinking that they would surround him, and the rest would be to consume the opponent's energy and finally surround and kill him.

But who would have thought.
At this moment, the real Dong Zhuo actually came out from the rear, and if he didn't make a move, he would tear open the allied cavalry. Such fighting power is really shocking.

but!

What Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu didn't expect was that.

Dong Zhuo did not lead his troops to force the cavalry formation, but continued to circle around, releasing another wave of arrows, aiming at the surrounding Allied cavalry, covering them with a wave of dense firepower.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
The overwhelming arrows hit, and the allied cavalry was in chaos immediately, falling down like cutting wheat. The cavalry on the periphery subconsciously reined in their horses and turned around to distance themselves from Xiliang Xiaoqi.

Yuan Shu was the closest to Dong Zhuo, and he was even more frightened. He hurriedly shouted and ordered: "Quick! Go up to me and surround and kill Dong Zhuo. This thief is the real Dong Zhuo!"

"kill-!"

A strong cry of killing sounded.

The Allied cavalry turned their horses around one after another, but the cavalry gathered together could not turn so easily.

They hadn't turned around yet, Dong Zhuo's cavalry guards had easily passed by, and once again twitched their bows and set their arrows, aiming at the place where the accumulation was deeper, a dense wave of arrows rained down.

Dong Zhuo's strategic goals are very clear.

Although his own cavalry is only five hundred, but the fighting power is extremely strong, wasting it on ordinary cavalry is simply a waste of money, not only will it not be of much use, but it will make his feet sink deep.

after all
The cavalry of the Kanto princes has three or four thousand cavalry, and it is not wise to compete with them.

He wants to disturb the opponent's line of sight first, and then concentrate all his strength to attack the strategic level target of the allies!

Just ask: Who is the strategic target?

There is one and only one answer.

Yuan Shao!

Dong Zhuo was very sure that the figure under the banner of the big flag was Yuan Shao who was confronting him with the sword at the beginning.

"Humph!"

Dong Zhuo snorted angrily, his chest burning with fighting spirit: "I, Dong Zhuo, want to see how sharp your Yuan Shao's sword is."

His eyes froze.

While Dong Zhuo charged forward with his horse, he twirled his bow and set his arrows.

At this moment, Yuan Shao seemed to have become alert and began to lead his troops back.

The big flag moved accordingly, fluttering in the wind.

Dong Zhuo stretched the full moon, aimed his arrow at the flag, and under the cover of Xiaoqi's personal guards, he kept approaching.

Whoosh!
Arrows are like stars, whizzing towards them.

However, the big banner broke off at the sound and fell among the allied troops.

Dong Zhuo was in a good mood, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Yuan Shao is defeated! Yuan Shao has escaped! Chase and kill Yuan Shao! Follow me!"

Xiaoqi's personal guards followed and shouted: "Yuan Shao is defeated! Yuan Shao has escaped! Hunt down Yuan Shao!"

"Yuan Shao is defeated."

"."

The sound was like a bell, and it sounded like a thunder.

The Allied cavalry subconsciously turned their heads to look.

really!

Yuan Shao's big flag could not be found.

You must know that the military flag is a symbol of the soul of an army. It not only carries the morale of the entire army, but also represents life and death. If the military flag falls, the army will also be destroyed.

This blow to the morale of the Allied forces was simply devastating.

Dong Zhuo took the lead in shooting off the banners of the allied cavalry, and then immediately charged Yuan Shao. Although the five hundred cavalry guards were not too many, they were enough as a vanguard.

In an instant.

Dong Zhuo put away the carved bow and replaced it with a horse.

Although he hadn't charged into battle for a long time, the moment he held the horse's lance tightly and charged forward, the fighting spirit that had been hidden for a long time suddenly burned fiercely again.

"kill-!"

This roar!
Like a spring thunder bursting out of his mouth, a thunderbolt throbbed from the tip of his tongue.

He even conveyed Dong Zhuo's furious fighting intent to each of the guards, making their blood boil. On the contrary, when the allied cavalry heard the roar, they all felt terrified and terrified.

puff!puff!puff!
If Dong Zhuo didn't make a move, it would be fine, but when he made a move, the flashlight flashed like a flint.

He rode his horse through the Allied cavalry, waving the lance in his palm non-stop, pointing, stabbing, chopping, or teasing, using various moves like flowing clouds and flowing water, the bright red juice accompanied by broken limbs and arms, Splash around.

Under the leadership of Dong Zhuo, the morale of Xiaoqi's personal guards skyrocketed, and everyone was brave and invincible. As if it was only a moment, they followed the torn hole like a sharp sword and plunged in.

Allied cavalry riot!

Facing the horse, the burly man who was like a hill galloped and took the lives of more than ten Allied cavalry one after another. He was really extremely ferocious.

Dong Zhuo was so powerful that with a wave of the horse spear in his palm, he pushed back the three allied cavalry who had rushed up, and slashed across with his backhand again, one of them was cut off by him, and the rest of his strength penetrated into the second half waist.

"what?"

Yuan Shao looked back inadvertently.

Just seeing this scene in his eyes, he was so shocked that he was stunned and sweating all over. He didn't even care to greet the soldiers beside him, and carried the military flag as fast as he could.

You know, Yuan Shao is definitely not a timid coward, he is a ranger, and his hands are also stained with blood, but he just met Dong Zhuo, a god of death, so he seems a little cowardly and fearful.

"Come on!"

Yuan Shao stared like a bell, and hastily called out to the soldiers beside him: "Stop Dong Zhuo, be sure to kill him!"

The general Chunyu Qiong held out his spear and leapt across the horse in front of him: "My lord, go quickly, I will block the thief general!"

Yuan Shao was naturally aware of Chunyu Qiong's abilities, and felt at ease right now:
"Zhong Jian, be careful."

Chunyu Qiong responded coldly:
"Don't worry, my lord."

drive-!
At that moment, Chunyu Qiong charged straight at Dong Zhuo with his horse, and all the soldiers around him followed suit.

Yuan Shao didn't dare to hesitate, he hastily reined in his horse: "Go!"

The black cavalry surrounded Yuan Shao and retreated towards the open area.

but
How could Dong Zhuo allow Yuan Shao to lose like this.

He slammed the horse's belly again, and charged in the direction Yuan Shao was fleeing, and bumped into Chunyu Qiong who was in charge of blocking him.

But seeing, Chunyu Qiong was holding a spear in his hand, he was full of energy, his eyes were like cold stars, and he stabbed to death the two guards of Xiaoqi in an instant. hatred.

You must know that these guards are all fierce soldiers in the army, and if one of them is pulled out randomly, they are all at the level of a hundred generals. It is simply unreasonable to be killed by the bandits in front of them like this.

of course!

While Dong Zhuo was resentful, he naturally knew that the other party should not be underestimated.

He galloped his horse forward, and the spear in his palm was like a thunderbolt. He rushed towards Chunyu Qiong's face without any fanfare:

"Crappie!"

"Die to me!"

Like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, the dangerous lance slammed into Chunyu Qiong's face with a snort. Chunyu Qiong's eyes flashed, but his figure was as motionless as a mountain, and an invisible aura surged impressively.

at the same time.

Chunyu Qiong picked up the spear, twisted it violently, and the spear spun, with a thunderous momentum, facing Dong Zhuo's thrusting lance, he slammed it head-on.

clang!
Where the spears intersect, sparks burst out.

A deafening golden sound exploded.

Chunyu Qiong felt as if he had bumped into a mountain peak, his aura was suddenly overwhelmed by a terrifying force, and he rushed into his body along the shaft of the spear, along his arm.

"Damn!"

Chunyu Qiong chewed to himself: "The thief Dong Zhuo is really strong."

Dong Zhuo snorted coldly, and pressed the other hand on the same way: "Hmph! When I, Dong Zhuo, roamed the northwest, you were still rolling in your mother's womb. How dare you challenge labor and capital!"

"court death!"

The powerful force suddenly soared, forcing Chunyu Qiong's spear down at a speed visible to the naked eye, abruptly turning Chunyu Qiong's offensive into a defensive one.

What's more terrible is that the Xiaoqi guards who followed up have killed many allied cavalry, and they are heading in their direction, like a wolf, rushing straight at them.

Extremely dangerous!

but
Chunyuqiong didn't intend to sit still.

He clenched the spear with both hands, and shook the spear tail violently with his right hand. A strange force was transmitted to the spearhead. Although Dong Zhuo forcibly suppressed nine points of his strength, he was still slightly free, allowing him to take advantage of the situation to fight back.

Quick, accurate, ruthless!
With this move, Chunyu Qiong used strength and force, and immediately pressed the spear on Dong Zhuo's lance, the sound of chirping continued, and thousands of sparks burst out everywhere.

Although Chunyu Qiong finally turned the situation around with this move, he is very self-aware. If he fights hardcore, he might not be Dong Zhuo's opponent.

Although this old guy has not been on the battlefield for a long time, his prestige has not diminished. Now that he is over half a century old, he still has such terrifying power. It is hard to imagine how brave Dong Zhuo was when he was young.

No wonder!
Dong Zhuo was able to thrive in Liangzhou, which advocates bravery. This guy's own strength is excellent, coupled with his bold temperament, he likes to make friends with Qiang people, and it is expected that he can succeed.

How dare Chunyu Qiong fight Dong Zhuo head-on.

Taking advantage of the emptiness where he had the upper hand, he hastily waved his spear, and turned his horse around at the same time, trying to escape before the guards around him arrived.

"Thief, where are you going!"

Dong Zhuo's army was in full swing, and with a single point of his finger, he led his personal guards of Xiaoqi and continued to pursue and kill him.

Zhang Yang, who was leading troops to besiege "Dong Zhuo", was stunned.

He really couldn't believe it.

In just a short moment, the surrounding cavalry of the Allied cavalry rioted, and many cavalry retreated, causing the encirclement to reveal one flaw after another:

"what happened?"

Zhang Yang took advantage of the situation and looked back.

but see
There was a group of cavalry on the outskirts, rampaging, killing Yuan Shao and fleeing.

Those retreating cavalry, seven out of ten were ordered to intercept the opponent, but they were still killed in pieces, throwing away their helmets and armor.

"Ha ha!"

Dong Min, who was on the verge of death, looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, with a fierce fighting spirit: "Brothers, the prime minister is here to save us, quickly follow me to break through, from this direction, intercept and kill Yuan Shao!"

Xiliang Xiao's knights were so angry that they shouted in unison: "Kill!"

Zhang Yang stared like a bell: "Is this person Dong Zhuo?"

now!

Only then did Zhang Yang realize that they had been tricked.

Dong Zhuo sent out a bait, which disrupted their formation. Taking advantage of the siege of the bait, when he relaxed his vigilance, he rode out and rushed straight at the leader Yuan Shao, thus affecting the three armies and making the battle situation even more chaotic.

"What a Dong Zhuo!"

Zhang Yang couldn't help but marvel: "Sure enough!"

Junhou Gaocheng tried to ask: "Zhang Sima, what should we do? Do we want to continue hunting?"

Zhang Yang glanced at Gao Cheng, and shook his head: "No need! We will lose in a short time. At this moment, we should try our best to protect Yuan Shao, and then withdraw slowly."

"Defeat?"

Gao Cheng frowned, and couldn't help being curious: "Sima, our army is already superior, how could it be possible to lose?"

Zhang Yang sighed: "This place is too close to Shan County, we have wasted a lot of time, if we can't kill Dong Zhuo, reinforcements from Shan County will come, otherwise Dong Zhuo will have escaped somewhere, why would he wait here with me entanglement."

"This guy!"

Zhang Yang took a deep breath and suppressed his anger: "It is clear that we have no fear, so we dare to chase and kill Yuan Shao so recklessly! If we continue to entangle with him, we will definitely lose."

Gao Cheng suddenly realized: "It makes sense."

"Listen to orders!"

Zhang Yang made a decisive decision, and followed Yuan Shao with his eyes: "You led the troops to fight out from here, and opened up a way for Yuan Shao to survive. I will personally lead the troops to intercept Dong Min."

It's not chasing, but intercepting.

The situation on the battlefield has changed drastically!
Gao Cheng nodded: "Here."

present.

Zhang Yang and Gao Cheng's soldiers split into two groups and acted separately.

Yuan Shao, who was fleeing, glanced back at Dong Zhuo, grinning his teeth angrily: "Damn! Is this old bastard crazy? He's been chasing me all this time. He really thinks he can kill me?"

"Lord!"

Xu You, who rode his horse and followed closely, hurriedly said: "Dong Zhuo may not be able to kill you, but this place is very close to Shan County, and we have been fighting here for nearly an hour."

"If this entanglement continues, reinforcements from Shan County will definitely arrive. I guess Dong Zhuo is not trying to kill you, but to entangle the allies and wait for reinforcements!"

Yuan Shao was stunned when he heard the words, his eyes filled with astonishment: "This is indeed possible."

Xu You remonstrated: "My lord, it may be too late for us to retreat now."

Yuan Shao glanced back at Dong Zhuo, his eyes were full of unwillingness: "Damn it! Not only did he fail to kill Dong Zhuo, but he returned in a disastrous defeat. After this defeat, the only way to defeat Dong Zhuo is Hongnong King."

"My lord, as long as you are still here, there is still hope, retreat quickly, if you don't leave, it will be too late."

"go!"

Yuan Shao was cruel, and ordered sonorously: "Quickly withdraw from the battle and return to Luoyang."

Xu You breathed a sigh of relief: "Here."

"Zhang Nan, Jiao Touch!"

"exist."

"The two of you are leading the way, and you must let the Lord withdraw from the battle safely."

"Here."

"Chunyu Qiong."

"exist."

"You're in charge of the cutoff."

"Here."

Immediately, Xu You shouted at the top of his voice, "Quickly withdraw! Withdraw from the battle."

Dong Zhuo took advantage of the situation to chase and beat the dog in the water for more than ten li before he gave up.

Gazing at the retreating Allied cavalry.

Dong Zhuo gasped heavily: "I really can't accept my old age. If it was in the past, I, Dong Zhuo, would definitely kill Yuan Shao. How could I let him go."

"Prime Minister."

Dong Minle immediately stepped forward and comforted him: "This battle is enough. Your prestige remains the same as before. We all know that the most urgent task is to return to Shan County to rest and recuperate."

Dong Zhuo nodded: "Let's go back to Shan County."

Dong Min cupped his hands: "Here."

"Brother Min, you have been wronged by this battle."

"As long as my brother is safe, this matter is nothing."

"When I go back, I will definitely make it up to you."

"Whoa!"

Dong Min waved his hand: "No need, this is what I should do."

Dong Zhuo said deeply: "When we return to Chang'an, we will quickly recruit troops, and King Hongnong will not let it go."

"Brother, don't worry, as long as we guard Hangu, no one will be able to get in."

"King Hongnong is absolutely extraordinary, we must not underestimate the enemy."

"."

*****
Jingzhou, Nanyang.

Prefect's House.

At this moment, Tang Mao was sitting in front of the desk, writing vigorously.

a long time.

He put the pen aside, let out a long breath, leaned over to dry the ink, then put it away and put it in a cloth bag: "Xiang'er."

Tang Xiang stepped forward: "Father."

Tang Mao raised his eyes and looked at his son: "You have almost recovered, right?"

Tang Xiang nodded: "Well, it's almost there. I went to urge the grain with Zhongxiang yesterday. Since the victory in the Luoyang battle, the grain harvest is obviously much faster than before."

"That's natural."

Tang Hao nodded in anticipation: "As long as King Hongnong wins many battles, the rear will naturally help. The gentry in Nanyang, except for the Deng family's sincere support, the other families always have illusions."

"Oh, right."

Tang Mao suddenly thought of something: "How about the Kong family? Did Zhong Xiang accept the food they sent?"

Tang Xiang sneered, and shook his head: "No! Zhongxiang is not easy to mess with. Before that, the Kong family tried every means not to give us food, but now we don't accept food!"

"Oh, right."

Tang Xiang suddenly remembered something, and said softly: "Just yesterday, Kong Ben personally sent [-] stones of grain and grass, and chased after Zhongxiang's ass, begging bitterly, but Zhongxiang just ignored him."

"Humph!"

Tang Xiang snorted softly: "Now that Dong Zhuo has retreated to Chang'an, and Luoyang has been successfully captured by King Hongnong, if there is another good news, the gentry who were demons before will have to be frightened to death."

Tang Hao let out a sigh of relief, and handed the cloth bag to his son: "You are right, the shock of the Nanyang gentry is no small matter. If they are pushed into a hurry, maybe they will really do something."

"Xiang'er."

Tang Mao warned: "You go to Luoyang in person, and you must hand over this letter to Your Highness. This is the genealogy of the Kong family that His Highness asked me to collect."

"Tell Your Highness, if you are not sure, don't come back in a hurry. The Kong family is not so easy to compromise. Their family's power is far greater than I imagined."

Tang Xiang took the bag: "Father, don't worry, my son will deliver this letter to His Highness personally."

Tang Mao nodded: "Well, you go! I will never accept the food and grass sent by the Kong family before I get an explicit order from His Highness. Your Highness can rest assured about this."

How could Tang Xiang not understand what his father meant.

If His Royal Highness Hongnong Wang is not going to attack the Kong family, then as long as the Kong family's food and grass are collected, everything will be fine. Father is giving Hongnong Wang a way out.

Tang Xiang cupped his hands and said solemnly: "Father, don't worry, the child understands."

Tang Mao nodded: "Since that's the case, it's not too late. I'll leave at noon today."

Tang Xiang put the cloth bag into his arms: "Okay."

Immediately.

He bowed and exited the hall.

Tang Mao pinched a strand of goatee under his jaw, slowly closed his eyes, frowning in thought.

It is easy to unplug a Kong family, but once the rest of the gentry unite and refuse to cooperate, I am afraid that things will not be so easy.

After all, it would be impossible for King Hongnong to secure Nanyang without the support of the local aristocratic family. No matter how powerful the Deng family is, how could it beat the entire Nanyang gentry.

It is necessary to rectify the Nanyang gentry, otherwise King Hongnong will not be able to stand up, but what kind of measure should be used to avoid hurting himself, and King Hongnong needs to control it himself.
