Great Han Empire

Chapter 188

Bian Zhang couldn't dodge in time, and he was hit straight with his horse and man.Sitting down, the war horse hissed wildly and flew up, dying.Bian Zhang himself was thrown into the air by the huge impact, and after a dozen rolls in the air, he fell heavily to the ground.Bian Zhang screamed, opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood, and fainted immediately.

Dong Zhuo strode forward, flying his saber, and took three more lives.Seeing the big banner just a few feet away, he roared excitedly: "Cut down the big banner, cut it down..., cut it down..."

Xiliang soldiers were excited and killed even more fiercely.

Suddenly, a group of cavalry came up like a whirlwind.These people were like wolves and tigers, with ferocious faces, and each of them was like a lunatic. With their incomparably powerful attack power, they just discounted Dong Zhuo's group of assault arrows.Under the cover of several soldiers, Dong Zhuo quickly jumped onto an unowned horse, and retreated while fighting.

They are Bianzhang's personal guards, and Bianzhang kept them because he wanted to break through at the last moment.But now the coach doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, so why is he still standing there?kill it.Jin Shuo, Bianzhang's personal guard chief, found Bianzhang.At this time Bian Zhang had woken up, but he lost consciousness all over his body.

"General, general..." Jin Shuo shouted loudly, "General, how are you doing?"

Blood kept coming out of Bian Zhang's mouth, he opened his eyes wide in pain, and said in a low voice: "Beat the drum, beat the drum..."

Seeing Bian Zhang's dying state, Jin Shuo was filled with grief and indignation. He suddenly stood up, raised his hands, and roared loudly: "Beat...drum..."

The sound of war drums boomed, and the powerful and fierce drums resounded across the battlefield in an instant.

Liang Xing and Ma Wan, who were fighting in the enemy's formation, and the soldiers who were fighting the enemy with their lives, suddenly heard the intensive sound of war drums like a violent storm, all of them were invigorated, and their bodies seemed to have added infinite energy. The strength roared like thunder one by one, and rushed into the enemy group even more desperately.

Liang Xing finally broke out of the enemy line with his cavalry, and Dong Zhuo's army was divided into two.

A scuffle situation inevitably occurred.

Dong Zhuo looked angrily at the enemy banner standing in the distance in the flames, and the muscles on his face twitched involuntarily.These tenacious rebels finally blocked their charge, and the disadvantage of insufficient troops was fully exposed at the last moment.

Now that the assault troops are blocked, the central army is broken through by the enemy, and the left and right flanks are under the siege of the enemy, no matter how brave and skilled your subordinates are, it is impossible to win any more results.Although a tiger is powerful, it cannot resist the attack of a pack of wolves.

The two sides have been fighting for so long, but no rebel infantry appeared.Judging from this situation, Han Sui must have received the news in advance and had already led the main force to leave in advance.Bian Zhang just stayed with the cavalry to stop the attack and buy time for the main force to retreat.

Now that the purpose of the attack has been achieved, why force the attack?Dong Zhuo immediately gave the order to retreat.

"Order the ministries to shrink intensively, go north, go north, and leave the battlefield immediately."

The rapid sound of war drums and the continuous waving of battle flags guided the soldiers fighting on the battlefield to gradually move north.

Guo Bang and Fan Chou took the lead and charged hard. After a period of fierce fighting, they successfully intercepted Liang Xing's troops and cut off their iron cone formation at the middle.The Xiliang cavalry who were blocked on the left battlefield swarmed up, immediately widening the gap, and the troops quickly moved north.

Bian Zhang lay on the ground, enduring the heart-piercing pain and listening attentively to Jin Shuo's description of the battlefield.

"General, Dong Zhuo's troops have moved northward, and they seem to be leaving the battlefield."

"Order General Ma, immediately get out of the way to the north and let the enemy pass." Bian Zhang whispered.

"General..." Jin Shuo turned around and shouted, "Dong Zhuo's troops are at a disadvantage, and we have surrounded them."

Bian Zhang closed his eyes, panting heavily, and said with difficulty: "Preserve our strength, preserve our strength, we are not enough in number to stop him."

Jin Shuo gritted his teeth, roared angrily, punched the air, and shouted with all his strength: "Order the left wing troops to give up blocking, give up blocking..."

Dong Zhuo's cavalry suddenly let out a loud cheer, and they found that the enemy blocking them dispersed to both sides like a tide, giving up the entire northern defensive position.

Xiliang cavalry roared away like a hurricane.

Between the sky and the earth, a fish-belly whiteness suddenly appeared, and then the heavy black curtain slowly opened.Its daybreak.

Li Hong loosened his hair, put his head into the river, and soaked it beautifully for a while.Then he drank a few sips of cold water, and walked back to the shore contentedly.The wet long hair hung behind his head, sticking to the worn leather armor, dripping water continuously.

Sangyang saw it from a distance, and laughed loudly: "Li Zhonglang, do you wash like this in the morning?"

Li Hong smiled and said, "It's convenient, it's convenient. I'm rude, I'm rude."

Sang Yang waved his hand and said with a smile, "Li Zhonglang is a man of temperament, he does it rashly, so it's not rude. However, compared with Gongsun Duwei, you are much more easy-going, and Gongsun Duwei seems... "Sangyang immediately felt that it was inconvenient to speak, so he swallowed the words back.

Li Hong didn't take it seriously, and asked in surprise: "My lord knows Mr. Captain Qi?"

Sang Yang smiled and said: "He has been on the Xiliang battlefield for more than half a year, of course I know him. In northern Xinjiang, there are two world-famous figures, one is the white horse Gongsun Zan, and the other is Li Zhonglang. Li Zhonglang is known as the Black Panther The two heroes of Northern Xinjiang, one white and one black, complement each other perfectly. In comparison, the prestige and achievements of the adults are much higher than those of Captain Gongsun, so..."

Li Hongda waved his hand, interrupted Sangyang's words, and praised him with all his might: "Lord Cavalry Captain is very famous in northern Xinjiang. I heard of his name when I was still a slave in Xianbei Kingdom. Murong, the god of war in Xianbei Kingdom Feng was full of praise for him. Don't believe it, the commander once praised him in front of me. I have always admired him in my heart. That's why Captain Qi is the real hero in northern Xinjiang. I'm nothing. Haha ..."

Sangyang looked at him in surprise and didn't say anything, but the admiration in his eyes was self-evident.

"When I was in Youzhou, I owed him a drink. I was planning to invite him once in Xiliang, but he went back. It's a pity. Has he been promoted in the Xiliang battlefield?" Li Hong invited Sang Sheep sat down and asked.

"No, on the Xiliang battlefield, our troops have always been at a disadvantage in terms of numbers. Not to mention that we can't win, we are still restrained everywhere. It's very good that Captain Gongsun can go back alive." Sangyang sighed.

Li Hongda laughed.

"Brother Bogui's White Horse Yicong is very powerful. It looks slightly better than Mr. Ma's Xiliang Iron Cavalry. My Black Panther Yicong is even more incomparable. Brother Bogui himself is also an invincible warrior. Just As far as Brother Bogui is concerned, he must be more than able to protect himself, so he won't be in such a mess as your lord said, right?"

Sangyang shook his head and said helplessly: "The situation is much more serious than you imagined. Captain Gongsun followed General Dong when he arrived in Xiliang, and got along very well with General Dong. The leader of Baima Qiang, June Jinglei, and General Dong has a bloody feud, and he has been staring at General Dong and besieging General Dong several times, but every time General Dong escaped without any danger. However, Captain Gongsun was not so lucky. escape."

Zhao Yun, who was sitting next to him, asked puzzledly: "Lord Sang, why is it that General Dong can break through the siege every time, but Captain Gongsun cannot? Aren't they together?"

Sangyang said with a heavy heart: "General Dong has friends, but Captain Gongsun doesn't, so..."

"Didn't General Dong inform Captain Gongsun?" Zhao Yun asked.

"Of course I will be notified. But someone has to stay to stop Qianghu, so it depends on who retreats faster. Captain Gongsun and his men are always one step behind, so they have to fight Qianghu every time. They are brave and invincible, even a strong man like June Jinglei, who can cover the sky with his hands, can do nothing. The Taiwei is very reluctant to let him go back, but considering the situation in northern Xinjiang, he must be let go. You and him When we get to the Xiliang battlefield, the deterrence against the Hu people in northern Xinjiang will be much weaker."

"There are so many friends in the Xiliang rebel army. It's really not easy for you to support until now." Li Hong laughed. It would be nice if the rebels were killed."

Sangyang sighed, and said, "If Lord Taiwei hadn't brought [-] Northern troops from Luoyang, the rebels would probably have invaded Chang'an by now."

Zhao Yun said in surprise: "My lord, is the situation so bad?"

Sang Yang nodded and said: "Before you came, there were [-] northern troops of General Zhou Shen on the Xiliang battlefield, [-] frontier troops of General Dong Zhuo from the north of Xiliang, and [-] soldiers from the south of Xiliang led by Colonel Huangfu Hong." The frontier army, the [-] western Xiliang frontier army from the western captain Qu Yi, the [-] county soldiers from the Liangzhou Governor Xu Rong and the [-] cavalry from the army Sima Ma Teng, and the [-] cavalry from the Jincheng County soldier Cao Cao Shi Huaxiong The soldiers of the county, the five thousand soldiers of the county of Bao Hong, the captain of Youfufeng, and the five thousand soldiers of the county of Xin Zeng, the captain of Jingzhaofu."

"Of these troops, the only ones who are truly loyal to the Taiwei are General Zhou Shen's Northern Army, Jingzhao Mansion and Youfufeng's county soldiers. Although Xu Rong, the governor of Liangzhou Governor's Mansion, is from Youzhou Liaodong, his subordinates They are all from Xiliang, so these 1 people cannot be trusted. From top to bottom, none of the other troops is from Xiliang. Therefore, although Lord Taiwei holds a hundred thousand troops, only these troops can really command 3 people. Just think about it, the Taiwei has relied on these 3 people to support him until now, which is already very valuable."

"Fortunately, Your Majesty is so wise that Li Zhonglang's [-] troops were urgently dispatched from Jizhou to the west. Otherwise, Chang'an will be really dangerous this time."
