Chapter 184 Yuan Shu’s defeat (please subscribe)

The Yuan army on the right was led by deputy general Lei Bo.

Lei Bo was a fierce bandit in the Huaiyang area. When Yuan Shu rebelled and recruited troops, he led his troops to surrender. At this moment, he led more than 2,000 people, half of whom were bandits who followed him, and his fighting style was fierce.

Seeing the cavalry rushing left and right as if they were entering an uninhabited area, Lei Bo couldn't help but feel fierce - We have more than 6,000 men and horses in three groups, but we can't stop your 2,000 cavalry?

So he led his subordinates to come up from behind and cooperated with Yu She to surround Lu Bu.

When Lu Bu saw that the enemies were gathering more and more, he was not worried but happy, and said loudly: "My sons, let go and kill them. These little brats are enough for you to practice! Kill them!"

"Kill! The cavalry roared in unison, their momentum rising steadily.

Chen Ji was dumbfounded. What kind of team is this? Seeing that they were about to be surrounded, their fighting spirit became stronger and their murderous intent became even stronger.

Didn't Great Situ say before that all the elites of the imperial court were fighting outside, and that the foolish emperor was leading a rabble? How could there be such a skilled cavalry?
The battlefield was changing rapidly, leaving no chance for him to be stunned.

The cavalry formed a penetrating formation, with Lu Bu leading the way, like a cluster of giant crossbow arrows, extremely sharp and invincible.

Fang Tian's painted halberd dances, and there is no one or anything to block it. Anyone who blocks it will die, and the death method is often due to loss of limbs, which is extremely tragic.

The soldiers and horses under Chen Ji were like a flock of sheep that had been scattered by evil wolves. They were originally on the march, but now they were rushing to escape.

As the saying goes, a defeat is like a mountain, and the army is quickly defeated. Chen Jiyuan's thoughts of outflanking and supporting were all in vain under the impact of the powerful cavalry.

Just when Chen Ji was stunned, Lu Bu had already rushed forward, and Fang Tian's halberd drew a ray of light and cut into his neck.

Chen Ji was startled. He was about to raise his spear to fight, but he only moved his hand. Before he could even raise the spear, a huge head flew into the air, and blood spurted out of his chest.

Lu Bu looked at the other party's attire and knew it was a leader, so he shook his halberd, stabbed the fallen head on the tip of the halberd, drew a circle in the air, and threw out a bloody line.

"Hahahaha." Lu Bu laughed wildly, "You guys, have you seen it? Those who surrender will not be killed! Those who continue to resist, this is what will happen!"

When Yu Shejun and Lei Bojun saw this, they both stopped on the spot. The general hesitated, and the soldiers even showed expressions of fear.

No matter whether it was the elites led by Yu She or the ruthless bandits led by Lei Bo, they had never participated in such a clean and efficient battle.

Six thousand surrounded by two thousand, but they were washed away in pieces. Chen Jina's journey was completely ruined.

While he was hesitating, Lei Bo's rear army suddenly fell into chaos. Lei Bo looked back and saw a black general riding on a black horse, carrying a black Zhangba snake spear, and behind him were three hundred soldiers. Black Cavalry.

At this moment, the bodies of those cavalrymen were splattered with blood, and they looked as if they were demonic cavalrymen who had just broken out of hell, which made people shudder.

Just this black cavalry charged into Lei Bo's army, as if they were in an uninhabited land. These ruthless bandits who usually boasted loudly had only one word left at this moment, and that was to escape!
These are all old brothers who have been with him for many years, but now they are falling one after another, batch after batch, to the charge of this black cavalry. Lei Bo's heart is as sharp as a knife, but there is no other way. He knows that he is going to fight him at this moment. Die.

It should be almost done. We’ve bought enough time for Da Situ to escape. Let me leave too!

Thinking of this, Lei Bo didn't say hello to anyone or give any orders. A group of horses galloped backwards, with waves of flying dust rising behind them.

"You surnamed Lei, you are such a thief!" Yu She yelled angrily.

But there was no way. Lei Bo's subordinates had begun to collapse at this moment. Yu She's three thousand men alone could not fight against the cavalry led by the generals who wielded halberds and spears. He still knew this. .

"Retreat!" Yu She shouted, and while the cavalry massacred Chen Ji and Lei Bo's subordinates, Yu She led his troops and ran back.

Lu Bu's cavalry has rich combat experience. At first sight, he wants to run away? no way!

So he abandoned Chen Ji's remaining soldiers and led his cavalry to pursue them. Zhang Fei was still there excitedly harvesting Lei Bo's subordinates, completely ignoring the overall situation of the battlefield.

When Yu She saw the cavalry chasing him, he knew that he would not be able to escape today. However, it was obviously not a wise move to form a temporary formation to fight against the fast-running cavalry. He might be overtaken by the cavalry before the formation could be completed. Dispersed.

"Spread out and run for your lives! Run into the woods. Horses can't run fast in the dense forest!" Yu She shouted loudly. While shouting, he patted his horse and headed into the woods nearby.

The rest of the soldiers followed suit and dispersed into the woods one after another.

Fortunately, the terrain here is much wider than in front, and it is impossible for thousands of people to run into the woods at once. Lu Bu led his cavalry to rush up and kill some of the slower ones, and captured hundreds of prisoners and went back.

When Lu Bu returned, he saw that Zhang Fei was still leading the black horse Yi Cong to hunt down the remaining soldiers, and he cursed angrily: "I know how to kill, kill, kill! Where is Yuan Shu's son? What's the point of killing more soldiers?"

Zhang Fei was stunned, his eyes twitching, "So you have captured Yuan Shu's son?"

"What are you trying to catch? He's already gone and gone." Lu Bu said angrily.

"I haven't caught Yuan Shu, kid. Why are you talking so loudly?" Zhang Fei said in a loud voice. The sound echoed back and forth on the trees in the forest.

"Fengxian, Yide, how's the battle going?" At this time, a burst of hearty laughter came from the woods, and then two people walked out, it was Xi Zhicai and Du Qi.

This ambush battle was the first time Xi Zhicai led an independent battle after being recruited. He won the battle neatly and neatly, which made him feel good.

"This battle is a great victory, but it's a pity that Yuan Shu's son escaped." Lu Bu said. At this moment he was also full of admiration for the young scribe.

The ambush arrangement was all done by Xi Zhicai, which impressed both Lu Bu and Zhang Fei who witnessed the whole process.

This battle happened suddenly and ended quickly. It took about half an hour to disperse the Yangzhou army, beheading generals Zhang Xun, Chen Ji, and Chang Shi Yang Hong. Two thousand enemies were killed and one thousand five were captured. Hundreds of people.

It can be said to be a great victory. If there is any regret, it is that Yuan Shu ran away.

"Leave five hundred people to clean the battlefield, and the rest will go to the county town to rest." Xi Zhicai ordered.

"Let me, a small county magistrate, reward the three armies today." Du Qi also said excitedly.

From young people such as Lu Bu, Zhang Fei, and Xi Zhicai, Du Qi saw the vitality and infinite vitality. If His Majesty can maintain the current state, although Jiangshan Yonggu dare not say, there will definitely be no problem in the revival of the Han Dynasty. .

My sister is also a very smart woman. With a little help from His Majesty, the Du family has soared into the sky. Du Qi gets excited every time he thinks of this.

So they beat the golden stirrups and sang triumphant songs together, and the army went to the county seat.

……

Let's talk about Yuan Shu. He ran all the way and fled to the territory of Jiangxia. Then he slowed down and stopped to rest on a leeward mountain pass.

Generals Lei Bo, Yu She and others gradually led the defeated troops to join them.

Chen Lan, who was escorting the grain and grass behind, heard that his brother Chen Ji was dead and couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Stop mourning, I'm very annoyed, general." Yuan Shu said weakly, his eyes blank, staring straight at the empty front, no one knew what he was thinking.

Chen Lan reluctantly stopped his sorrow and said: "Da Situ, this battle is the first battle since Da Situ raised his army. It is so unfavorable. We cannot just swallow this breath. We must gather our troops and fight back!"

Yuan Shu didn't speak, still sitting there blankly.

He couldn't figure out how the Hunjun could have such an elite cavalry under his command. After many calculations, several cavalrymen from the imperial court's Northern Army were fighting on the front line.

Could it be the power that Hun Jun secretly reserves? Other than this, there is no explanation at all.

Why Sun Jian was defeated so miserably was probably related to the secret power exerted by Hun Jun.

Thinking of this, Yuan Shu's expression calmed down, and he sighed and said: "It's not that the officers and soldiers were spared their lives, it's not that the general's plan was not thorough, but that the Hunjun sent the power he secretly cultivated. You have all seen it. He is the best among the best, and ordinary soldiers cannot compare with him. It is understandable that Sun Wentai suffered such a defeat.

"Now, what should we do?" Yu She asked.

"Don't panic, the top priority is to gather the troops." Yuan Shu encouraged everyone and said, "According to my general's observation, although the cavalry is sharp, it also has its shortcomings. In particular, there are too few of them. They cannot take care of an army of 20,000 people. Kill, so although our army is defeated, most of it is scattered, and the military strength is still there. If we can gather them all, we still have the strength to fight. "

Everyone was speechless, thinking that this Yuan Da Situ must have been frightened out of his wits, how could he say such crazy things.

Twenty thousand people were chased and killed by two thousand people, but the flaws of the two thousand people were exposed? The flaw is that there are too many defeated troops on the opposite side, and it is impossible to kill them all!

Chen Lan felt her eye sockets sore and felt like crying again.

"Have the two beauties in my general's car escaped?" Yuan Shu asked.

Everyone was silent, no one even raised their head, and no one answered.

Yuan Shu also felt bored and said: "Send people quickly to gather the defeated army, reorganize the troops, and fight in Suixian again."

So they set up camp on the spot, set up a commanding flag, and sent men and horses everywhere to gather the defeated army. At dusk, tens of thousands of men and horses gathered.

Yuan Shu's mood improved slightly. After using these people, they can indeed fight again. It's a pity that although there is good wine here, there are no beautiful women, which is very unpleasant.

While he was feeling depressed, a soldier suddenly came in and reported, "I am reporting to Grand Situ that Sun Jian's envoy Huan Jie is asking for an audience."

"Sun Jian's envoy? He actually found his way here. It's really hard for him. Please come in quickly." Yuan Shu was surprised and suspicious, and ordered hurriedly.

After a while, the soldiers led Huan Jie in hurriedly. Judging from the tired look on his face, he must have been on his way.

Huan Jie saluted and said, "I heard that there was a big battle near Sui County during the day. Do you dare to ask whether it was Da Situ's soldiers and horses?"

"The officers and soldiers only know how to play conspiracies. Our righteous army was ambushed and had to stay here temporarily." Yuan Shu first tried to smooth things over for himself and said, "I don't know how the Wentai Grand Sima is doing these days. Is there any chance of sending Mr. What advice?”

"Everything is fine for my lord in Xiangyang." Huan Jie frowned and said, "This time I sent a subordinate to ask Da Situ to lead an army to attack Fancheng directly. By then my lord will send troops from Xiangyang, and the two forces will attack. The army will be defeated, and according to the official's understanding, Emperor Dog has left Wancheng for Fancheng. This is a good opportunity to use troops. "

"Two qi attack?" Yu She asked warily, "Does Sun Wentai still have soldiers and horses to use for the attack?"

"Of course!" Huan Jie said very confidently, "My lord has a very high prestige in Jingzhou. All the major families have sent young men and women to join the army, and the military strength is strong. They have also sent people to mobilize the navy to fight against a small Fancheng. It’s not difficult.”

When Yu She heard this, he felt that what Huan Jie said was reasonable, so he didn't ask further.

For them, they can fight wherever they hit, and nowhere is easy.

Yuan Shu slowly shook his head and said: "There is no rush to attack Fancheng. My general's first priority right now is to attack Suixian! If Suixian cannot be captured in one day, my general will not lead his army to march westward in one day."

"Why is this?" Huan Jie asked in surprise. I was confused at all times, leaving Fancheng, where the Dog Emperor was, untouched, what would it mean to attack a small county town here?
Yuan Shu looked at Huan Jie with fascinated eyes, thinking that the envoy was not very smart. He couldn't even guess this, why did he ask? He said: "Sui County is the hometown of Shennong. I want to conquer Suixian County to pray for the people of the world, pray for good weather, and pray for the happiness of the people..."

"Da Situ, isn't the plan for now to retire the army?" Huan Jie became even more puzzled and said, "After we win the battle, wouldn't it be more majestic if we go back to worship Shennong?"

"There are also officers and soldiers in Sui County." Lei Bo said calmly.

This time Huan Jie understood instantly. It seemed that Yuan Shu was defeated by Suixian's army. He pondered for a moment and asked, "May I ask how many soldiers and horses there are in Suixian and who is the general?"

"Sui County is your Jingzhou territory, how do we know such details?" Lei Bo said angrily.

Huan Jie was helpless, he didn't know anything, so why should he fight? It was abnormal to be undefeated.

"Da Situ has a broad mind, why bother to stick to a small county? As long as the Dog Emperor is captured, don't you have the final say on how many counties you want?" Huan Jie encouraged, "My lord wants to take advantage of the chaos in the world now. When the imperial court was unable to concentrate its forces, it was necessary to capture the Dog Emperor in one fell swoop to avoid long nights and nightmares. "

"The general doesn't know how many people there were in Suixian, but one thing is certain, that is, there are at least two thousand cavalry." Yuan Shu finally spoke, "You said we should bypass Suixian and go north, leaving our backs to the cavalry. Isn’t that a bit unwise?”

"In my opinion, it would be better for us to raise an army of two thousand together, trap Sui County, and surround and annihilate these two thousand cavalry. The officers and soldiers will definitely be seriously injured. Those crooked melons and jujubes of the Hunjun are not vulnerable to a single blow. The strongest combat force is this cavalry," Yuan Shu analyzed.

"Dare I ask, Da Situ's defeat today was due to this 2,000-man cavalry?" Huan Jie pondered and asked.
