Great Han Empire

Chapter 109
On the Great Plains, the rushing torrent suddenly split into two, turning to the left and right respectively, as if being split by a knife, quickly forming a huge cattail fan.The center of this palm-leaf fan is a rushing torrent, and the two sides of the palm-leaf fan are wonderful arcs like crescent moons.

The cavalry soldiers rode their horses and galloped wildly, turning quickly in these two arcs, accelerating, accelerating again, and then charged towards the enemy.

Colonel Zuo, like all the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army, was too busy to cope with the endless cavalry that came all the way, so he didn't even have time to catch his breath.

Suddenly, he heard the exclamation of the soldiers, and the shouts of fear were louder and louder.

He raised his head suddenly.

The cavalry in the formation were still fighting fiercely, but on both sides of the army, front and rear, countless cavalry were killed again.

They are like two red-eyed heroes, roaring furiously, whizzing towards them with rumbling wind and thunder.

"kill……"

Because of the change of the attack direction of the Fengyun cavalry, the Yellow Turban Army gave up the chariot formation they set up, and then because of the heavy casualties, the troops continued to shrink intensively, causing the gap between the chariot formation and the troop to become larger and larger, and finally it became a pile Waste that no one cares about.The plan that was originally intended to be ignited and destroyed became more and more unrealistic with the fierce fighting on the battlefield.

Li Hong took the Black Panther Yicong, shot Yingtong, and shot the tiger. More than 2000 cavalry passed by the chariot formation and shot into the front of the Yellow Turban Army like arrows.

Beard, Fist, and Lei Zi led more than 2000 cavalry, rolling up dust like a hurricane, and rushed into the rear position of the Yellow Turban Army.

Yan Wuwei, Heng Ji, and Lu Huanyang's cavalry troops did not continue to turn after Li Hong and Hu Zi led their troops into the enemy's formation, but immediately turned around on the spot, regrouped, turned back and killed.

Yushi and Xiaolan's troops are fighting fiercely among the Yellow Turban Army. They gradually slow down and start a purposeful siege.

Zheng Xin, Tie Yue's scouts and guards completely slowed down. They didn't follow Yushi's back song and charged into the enemy's formation, but opened a distance, ready to complete the encirclement of the Yellow Turban army.

Tian Zhong took the horn soldiers and stayed behind the Qianqu cavalry army.The task Li Hong entrusted to him was to climb high and look far away. Once the troops had completed the encirclement, they would immediately blow the horn to notify the whole army to launch a war of encirclement and annihilation.

According to Tian Zhong's arrangement, several horn soldiers circled the horses together.Everyone set up a ladder and watched the battlefield carefully.

"My lord, the enemy is shrinking, and there are still more than a dozen phalanxes."

"Yan Junhou's troops have returned."

"Marquis Yu's troops have given up the enemy's right flank, and the troops are concentrating on the left flank."

Tian Zhong shouted loudly: "The encirclement is complete."

"Come down, all come down. Blow the horn, blow the horn. Order the troops to divide and annihilate."

More than a dozen giant horns blew at the same time, and their desolate and majestic voices reverberated over the battlefield filled with killing sounds, and soared straight into the sky.

The leaders of each trilogy immediately ordered the soldiers to launch an assault on the remaining enemy formations to tear and divide them.As long as the defense is torn apart, the Yellow Turban Army will completely play.

The fierce battle has reached a fever pitch.

The viciousness and tenacity of the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army aroused the viciousness of all the cavalry soldiers, especially those Hu soldiers. They completely forgot that they were soldiers of the Han army. The spear mercilessly devours the life of the enemy.

Li Hong's steel gun was already stained red with blood, and the black body of the gun kept shaking.In order to firmly grasp the big gun, Li Hong had to frequently wipe his blood-stained hands on the black panther's mane back and forth.The enemy gathered tightly together, and even if they died, they would fall back to their own positions and use their own corpses to form obstacles.Pick and kill, only pick and kill.Look at the cavalry soldiers surrounding the enemy's phalanx. Everyone is bathed in blood, and everyone seems to have taken a blood bath. From top to bottom, there is no place that is not scary.

Yan Liang's broadsword is unpretentious, swarthy, with a long handle and a wide back.This is the most precious thing in his house.His father was a pavilion chief (in charge of guarding) of the Changshan State Mansion before his death, but after his death he was penniless, and this knife was left to his son.With this knife, Yan Liang won a lot of fame for himself.He has always been arrogant, because he is too powerful, and he has grown up so much that he has not seen anyone who can defeat him.He instinctively wanted to find an opportunity to compete with the famous Leopard, but today's battle suddenly made him completely lose his will to be competitive.

Today, he only knew what the fighting between the two armies was all about. Those who have no experience will never understand.Let your martial arts be invincible in the world, on the battlefield of tens of thousands of people, you are just a soldier, a soldier who kills a few more enemies.Without the mutual support and protection of comrades-in-arms, without everyone's concerted efforts, without the combat experience of the team's coordinated operations, and without the correct command of the generals, you will die alone, and you will have no chance of survival.

Yan Liang came all the way, beheaded countless times, until he was out of breath and his hands went limp.Then it was time for him to suffer.

His horse was cut down by the enemy, and he flew up from the horse's back and fell to the ground so hard that he couldn't see where he threw his sword.Enemies swarmed upon them.Li Hong, Hu Ding, Abandoned Shen, and dozens of Xianbei soldiers fought hard to rescue them.It was a hand-to-hand fight, a bloody hand-to-hand fight, and they immediately killed each other, just to save his life.Li Hong's long spear could not be pulled off the enemy's body, so he had to fly off his horse and draw his sword to fight again.A Xianbei soldier helped Yan Liang find the big knife, while another soldier desperately grabbed his foot and dragged him out of the narrow death zone.When he climbed onto the horse in a panic, Li Hong fell into the enemy's siege.

Li Hong's brutal bloodthirsty terrified the soldiers on both sides.In one breath, he killed seventeen enemies who surrounded him in one breath.A knife, a small axe, and two feet seemed to be full of weapons. In a short moment, that is, from the moment he dismounted from the horse to the time Yan Liang climbed onto the horse, he killed There were seventeen people.Hu Ding and Qi Shen had just wiped out the enemies in front of them, and when they were about to look for their opponents again, there was nothing in front of them.The soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army fled back into the formation as if they saw a ghost.

Yan Liang, Hu Ding and Qi Shen were all stunned.The legendary leopard turned out to be so powerful.He kills people like he kills chickens, with a flick of his fingers, the ashes are wiped out.

Li Hong put away his weapon, pulled out the spear from the corpse of the enemy soldier, flew on his horse, and roared at everyone: "Get on the horse...kill..."

Under his leadership, the soldiers of the Black Panther Yicong formed groups of three or four, forming arrows to attack in turn, and tore through the three phalanxes of the Yellow Turban Army one after another.Once the phalanx was broken, the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army lost support and protection among each other, and immediately fell into a situation of isolation and helplessness, and were immediately slaughtered bloody.They resolutely refused to surrender. The cavalry warriors were so red-eyed that they rushed forward and killed them without asking.

Yan Liang was shocked.

He once went to suppress bandits with the soldiers of the county yamen, and killed hundreds of people back and forth. As a result, he was scolded so badly that he was almost called a murderer.Look now, look around, there are rivers of blood flowing on the ground, and patches of linen-clothed and yellow-turban soldiers are lying in pools of blood, stumps and broken arms can be seen everywhere.After this battle, how many soldiers of the [-] Yellow Turban Army will be left?What is it for him to kill so many people?In just one hour today, he had killed far more than one hundred people.

War, that's what war is.

Crowds of cavalry warriors are like ferocious wolves on the prairie, staring at pairs of blood-red eyes and opening their bloody mouths, they ruthlessly pounce on piles of prey, biting and gnawing. , endlessly.Faced with fewer and fewer Yellow Turban soldiers who were less and less able to resist, Yan Liang could no longer cut down.But he had to chop.Those enemies were fearless, and they went on and on, one batch after another bravely rushed up until they all died in battle.

The sound of thunderous battle drums on the Yellow Turban Army's central position never stopped from beginning to end.

The sound of war drums was fierce and powerful, and it was extremely tragic and tragic on the bloody battlefield.

Li Hong was angry, he was irritated by the endless fighting of the enemy soldiers.If this fight continues, the casualties of our own cavalry soldiers will increase dramatically.

"Order Yu Junhou and Yan Junhou to concentrate the main force and annihilate the enemy's central army."

Li Hong urged the trilogy to complete the annihilation of the enemy's army, and the bull horn sounded louder and louder, appearing very anxious.

Yan Wuwei, Lu Huanyang, Yushi, and Xiaolan personally led the most elite cavalry to launch a fierce attack on the enemy's central army from four directions at the same time.

Zheng Xin, Tie Yue, and Heng Ji organized 2000 archers and launched a volley aimed at the central position of the Yellow Turban Army, continuously and intensively.

The enemy's central army was immediately devastated.The first to rush forward is the Drum Team.They were caught off guard, and were shot straight by the long arrows of the officers and soldiers. In just a short moment, almost all twenty or thirty soldiers were killed in battle.The few remaining people managed to support themselves, and then they were nailed to the war drum by more dense long arrows.

After holding on for a short period of time, the already precarious formation immediately collapsed as the sound of the war drums slowly disappeared.

Zuo Xiao insisted on the front line. He brandished his long spear and tried his best to assassinate the horses rushing into the formation. His attendants surrounded him tightly.Some slashed at the horse's legs with swords, some intercepted and killed soldiers on horseback with spears, and soldiers a little further away shot long arrows continuously and killed them at will.

Yan Wuwei came in with his entourage and personal soldiers.

His personal soldiers are all spears, riding galloping horses, screaming all the way, invincible.

Zuo Xiao let out a loud roar, and rushed forward bravely with his subordinates.Yan Wuwei's broadsword slashed head-on, and ruthlessly chopped on Zuo Xiaoxiao's spear.Zuo Xiao tried his best to raise his gun to seal the frame, and with a loud noise, the sword exploded, and Yan Wuwei flew past on his horse.Zuo Xiao felt as if he had been hit by a giant hammer on his chest, and he opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood.Seeing that Yan Wuwei didn't dodge, the soldiers following Yan Wuwei stabbed out the spear in his hand.Zuo Xiao wanted to hide, but his body didn't obey. Yan Wuwei's saber was so powerful that it hurt his heart and lungs.He watched helplessly as the spear sank into his chest.

His attendants had sharp eyes and quick hands, and chopped off the handle of the spear with a slash.Then the left school was surrounded by the attendants and hurriedly retreated to the formation.

The spear's iron head with half a small wooden handle was deeply inserted into the flesh, and blood spurted out continuously.The attendants surrounded him, shouting incessantly.

Zuoxiao looked at the blue sky and the white clouds, as if he saw Zhang Jiao, the great virtuous teacher, saw his soft smiling face, and heard his familiar voice.

He smiled and died peacefully.

As the drums of the Yellow Turban Army stopped beating, the enemy's morale was slowly lost, more and more defensive positions were broken through, and the shouts of killing became unprecedentedly fierce again.

The Fengyun iron cavalry surrounded from all directions launched a rapid attack on the enemy like a storm.The whole battlefield was full of wild war horses soaring vertically and horizontally, and it was almost impossible to see the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army in full formation.Even so, the remaining soldiers, under the command of their respective leaders, still persevered and fought indomitably.

They will not surrender until death.

"Order the soldiers to shout, tell them to surrender, surrender immediately."

Li Hong looked at the battlefield full of corpses and cried out loudly.

The Niujiao broadcast Li Hong's order far away.The horn soldiers of other parts received the news and immediately blew the horn to suspend the attack.

At this time the sun was setting, and dusk was approaching.

Yushi, Yan Wuwei, Beard, and Zheng Xin came flying like flying horses.

"Is everything all right?" Li Hong tried his best to suppress his nervousness, and asked.

He was very afraid, afraid that he would lose his brother again.The battle of Hengling made him heartbroken.The gradual departure of his comrades-in-arms made him unable to bear the heart-piercing pain any longer.If he lost a few more brothers in this battle, he didn't know that he would have the courage to face the next big battle.

The three of Yushi knew what he was asking.

Seeing Li Hong's worried and anxious expression, knowing that he was always concerned about his life, several comrades in arms were very moved.The emotion of life and death among comrades-in-arms is deeply entwined in everyone's heart.

"We are all still alive. Are you okay?" Seeing Li Hong covered in blood, Zheng Xin asked worriedly.

"I'm fine. The fighting power of the Yellow Turban Army is very strong, which is beyond our surprise. If the fight continues like this, it will be difficult for us to send Zhang Niujiao out of Youzhou." Hearing Zheng Xin's answer, Li Hong's mood suddenly improved.

Several people nodded in sympathy.

"Are they willing to surrender?" Li Hong asked.

"At present, no one has come forward to answer. The soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army are surrounded by our cavalry regiments, and they can be dealt with at any time." Yushi replied loudly.

"None of them put down their weapons. They obviously don't intend to surrender. They still want to fight to the death. These people are admirable, and they are all good men." Hu Zi continued.

Li Hong shook his head, he didn't know what to do?If they don't surrender, what else can they do besides fighting again?
"How many more?"

"It is estimated that there are three or four thousand people?" Zheng Xin said in a low voice.

Li Hong raised his head in surprise, and shouted: "There are only three to four thousand people? 4000 people have been killed and only this few people are left. Will you surrender?"

Yan Wuwei immediately answered, "Of course I won't surrender."

"How could you kill so many people?" Li Hong said to himself very puzzled.

"There are more than 7000 Hu cavalry in the army, including Xianbei, Wuwan, Xiongnu, and Qiang. They fight like life and death enemies, and they are more fierce than when fighting our Han army at the border. No mercy." Yushi sighed and said, "If you give the order later, there will probably be no Yellow Turbans on the battlefield."

Everyone was silent.

The hatred between the Hu people and the Han people has a long history and is deeply rooted from generation to generation.This hatred cannot be changed by making them Han people for some reason.No one can solve this problem.

Although now because of Li Hong's personal reasons, with the support and help of all parties, the first Fengyun cavalry army composed of Han and Hu in the history of the Han Dynasty has been formed, but if this army changes its leader, it will still be able to fight against the enemy. continue to exist?Obviously not there, it's going to be gone in no time.No official of the Han Dynasty would put his wealth and life on this group of Hu people, and it is impossible for any tribe of Hu people to trust the officials of the Han Dynasty.The current Li Hong is purely an exception.

In the eyes of the barbarians, he is a Sinicized barbarian.In the eyes of the Han people, he is a Huhua Han.So people of both nationalities can accept him emotionally.As for Li Hong, in his eyes, there is no difference between Hu people and Han people, only the difference between countries.Therefore, only he can treat the people of the two races equally emotionally, and only he can come up with such an unimaginable idea, and of course only he can command this mixed army of Han and Hu.

Li Hong waved his hand and said with a smile: "Congyi (Yushi's character), this is only a word between us brothers, and we must not mention it in the future, because it will easily cause misunderstandings."

Yushi nodded cautiously.

Shooting Yingtong, Hengji came galloping on horseback.

"My lord, since the enemy won't surrender, what are we waiting for? Let's take it down in one fell swoop while the soldiers' morale is high," Heng Ji said loudly.

She Yingtong roared angrily, "Kill..."
