Xiang Yu fights the Three Kingdoms

Han Sui sent some of his soldiers to the south gate before the entire army collapsed at the east gate, so that the number of soldiers in his city was much smaller. There is also a long distance between them, and their morale is not too high, so the actual marching speed has also been greatly affected.

In this way, Han Sui undoubtedly made another big mistake, which was to divide his troops. In fact, he is gradually losing control of the entire battlefield, whether it is the soldiers outside the East City Gate or the soldiers inside the East City Gate. , or these soldiers sent out to the South City Gate have gradually ceased to be completely under Han Sui's control, let alone those Xiliang cavalry who were no longer under his control.

These soldiers of Han Sui rushed out from the south gate of Yunwu City according to Han Sui's order. It has to be said that Dong Zhuo did not deploy enough soldiers to attack the city on this side, so Han Sui's soldiers rushed out at the beginning. The army still had a certain advantage. They quickly tore a hole in Dong Zhuo's siege troops besieging the south gate, and then directly attacked Dong Zhuo's flank.

In the dark night, when this army rushed out from the south gate suddenly holding densely packed torches, Dong Zhuo's troops panicked and fled to a certain extent. There were several catapults deployed by Dong Zhuo and some other troops. Siege equipment such as ladders were ignited or destroyed by Han Sui's troops, but this smooth situation did not last for too long.

When Dong Zhuo's troops deployed to attack the city, they also deployed a certain degree of combat depth at the same time. This depth is not the front and rear depths, but the left and right depths. This actually seems very strange, and considering Dong Zhuo's The siege force will launch a siege attack on a long line, so this strategic depth is even more incredible.

However, in fact, Dong Zhuo did achieve this. When Han Sui’s Xiliang cavalry attacked Dong Zhuo’s catapult, the reason why they were able to easily achieve good results at the beginning, but they were quickly attacked. Dong Zhuo's counterattack suffered heavy losses. The very important reason is that Dong Zhuo's line was very deep, especially when resisting the flank attack of Han Sui's troops, it was very flexible, which made it difficult for Han Sui's troops to fight in one go. Completely crushing Dong Zhuo's line, Dong Zhuo's troops can always find a way for them to ease the situation, and then wait for an opportunity to launch a counterattack.

After gaining the experience of being flanked by Xiliang cavalry before, Dong Zhuo's current line has been further improved in defense of the flank attack, which caused Han Sui's troops to quickly fall into a confrontation with Dong Zhuo. The troops were engaged in mire-like hand-to-hand combat.

Han Sui originally thought of disrupting Dong Zhuo's line deployment from the flanks through a sudden attack, but now it seems that his plan is about to fail. At the beginning, after these soldiers with low morale achieved certain results, they even So there is still some complacency, feeling that Dong Zhuo's front line is so aggressive.

But with the next series of snags, the morale of these troops began to decline rapidly, and the combat effectiveness of the army also declined rapidly. As mentioned before, these Qiang-dominated troops under Han Sui are often good at Those who fight against the wind and are not good at fighting against the wind, or even a stalemate of equal strength, are very difficult for them to persist.

Soldiers and generals are obviously a little impetuous in their hearts. If they cannot quickly gain advantages and results, they will immediately start to have doubts in their hearts, doubt themselves, doubt the comrades around them, and even doubt the combat effectiveness of the entire army, and their Whether the ongoing battlefield battle can achieve the final victory.

At this time, the situation on the battlefield has begun to reverse. Dong Zhuo's side has more and more soldiers. When Han Sui's troops rushed out from the south gate, they directly cut off Dong Zhuo's line. The troops on the east and west were scattered.

However, Dong Zhuo's troops to the west were not completely defeated, and now the troops to the east also began to counterattack, so the situation was completely reversed, and Dong Zhuo's troops from the east and west turned into a siege of Han Sui's troops who rushed out of the city in the middle. Soon these Han Sui's troops couldn't bear the pressure anymore, and began to retreat towards the city or simply scattered and fled in place.

Those soldiers who hadn't had time to rush out of the south gate suddenly found that the friendly troops in front had started to fight back. The supervisory team in front had completely lost control of the situation, and most of the supervisory team would either be killed by the vast number of retreating soldiers , or they also joined the retreating army, and behind them, Dong Zhuo's troops rushed over, and the south gate had no time to close.

Because these troops of Han Sui were too weak, the south gate was occupied by Dong Zhuo's troops without much resistance. For Dong Zhuo, there was nowhere to go, and it took no effort to get here!

When Han Sui learned that the troops sent to the south gate were directly defeated, and even lost the south gate in such a short period of time, he couldn't help but sighed, feeling that the situation was really over. Barely stabilized the situation at the East Gate, but it seemed like it couldn't last too long.

If Dong Zhuo's army from the south gate rushed over again, if he stayed here for a long time, he might become a turtle in the urn, waiting for Dong Zhuo to catch him, so he immediately made a decision to take the remaining soldiers to Yunwu City. Retreating and trying to rely on some buildings in Yunwu City to engage in street fighting with Dong Zhuo's army might give him a slight chance to make a comeback, although judging from the current situation, this possibility is already very small.

Han Sui's retreat order was quite timely this time, but it was still a bit late after all. There were not many troops under his command now. In fact, there were still many of his troops in the city, but in this dark night, amidst the turmoil of soldiers and horses, , The soldiers only wanted to find a place where they could escape a life, so they didn't have the mind to fight. As for the generals and officers who conveyed Han Sui's order, they were in a kind of confusion.

So in fact, the number of soldiers who followed Han Sui and retreated to Yunwu City was not much, and more were killed or captured by Dong Zhuo's troops during the battle. This night, when it was dawn, there were already piles of soldiers inside and outside Yunwu City. There were countless corpses, most of which were soldiers under Han Sui.
