Chapter 440
Liang Baiwu snorted coldly, and said disdainfully: "Tuobafeng can't take advantage of Heizi sticking to the horse-rejection formation. Even if he wins the horse-rejection formation, the loss will be staggering. When we take Cumulus Ridge to block Xianbei After the man's retreat, I'll see how long Tuoba Feng can be rampant."
Liang Baiwu is a stout man in his 20s, with a strong body and a bushy beard. He looks domineering and sturdy.Sitting next to him was the young and handsome Li Yao. At this time, he looked worried and said worriedly: "My lord, once we occupy the Cumulus Ridge, we will inevitably be attacked by the Xianbei people from the north to the south. In order to open up the Chidao To ensure that the army can advance and retreat freely, we must organize the cavalry to counterattack frantically. There is no danger to defend on Cumulus Ridge. When the time comes, our losses..."
Yang Feng frowned slightly, staring at Li Yao and waiting for him to continue.
Li Yao hesitated for a moment, then said: "If we lose too much and everyone is finished, who will pay attention to you in the future? Maybe..."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Yang Zhen's face darkened, and he opened his mouth to curse, "Are you still a big Han? This is beating Xianbei people, beating barbarians, and it's worth dying for." Yang Zhen is in his 20s, tall, with a long face No need, a pair of small eyes are aggressive.
Li Yao glared at Yang Zhen with dissatisfaction, "Am I wrong? Everyone has finished fighting, who knows you Yang Zhen?" He looked at Yang Feng and said, "The commander has repeatedly said that the purpose of this battle is to severely injure Xianbei. He did not say that he wanted to wipe out the Xianbei people. The mission he gave us was to take down Cumulus Ridge, cut off the Xianbei people’s retreat, and force the Xianbei people to retreat. The commander did not tell us to stick to Cumulus Ridge.”
"Do you mean that we will turn around and run away when the Xianbei people come?" Liang Baiwu pointed at Li Yao and sneered, "Listen to me, boy, if you dare to take a step away from Jiyunling, I will strip your Skin."
Li Yao ignored Liang Baiwu's threat at all, turned to Yang Feng and said, "My lord, what do you say?"
Yang Feng shook his head and said, "If we don't stick to Cumulus Ridge, the Xianbei people will have no threat. How can they retreat? If we don't stick to Cumulus Ridge, the Xianbei people will gather all their forces to attack the commander. The commander can withstand it." Is it? The commander-in-chief’s men and horses are finished, Jinyang is lost, we fled to Taihang Mountain, and we will be infamous forever, don’t you think it’s very embarrassing?”
Li Yao's face froze and he didn't dare to speak.Yang Feng suddenly grabbed Li Yao's skirt, stared at him fiercely, and said coldly: "Do you want people in the world to spit on my Yang Feng name and call my ancestors?"
Li Yao was taken aback and shook his head again and again, "My lord, that's not what I meant..."
"You don't want to fight, you are afraid of death, and if you want to go, then get out now, don't implicate us, the Yellow Turban Army, or the people of Bingzhou." Yang Feng pushed him away forcefully, and said angrily, "The barbarians didn't kill you." Have you ever killed your ancestors? Didn’t the barbarians kill your ancestors’ ancestors?”
"My lord, it's not easy for us to recruit some troops. We have lost everything in this battle. In the future, it will depend on the face of others."
Yang Feng sneered, pointed to his nose and said: "I don't want to discredit my ancestors, I don't want my wife and children to live in disgrace in the future, I am a human being, I am not a beast, I know what I should do , what should not be done.” He looked at Liang Baiwu and Yang Zhen, and said loudly: “There is only death in this battle, unless all of our 6 people die in Cumulus Ridge, otherwise, we are not allowed to let a Xianbei escape Cumulus Ridge."
"Don't worry, my lord, there is death but no life, and I will never back down." Liang Baiwu and Yang Zhen shouted loudly.
"Send someone to inform Peng Lie and Lei Chuan, be careful to hide, wait for the opportunity, and don't attack without my order."
===
The bloody battle at Yanming Ridge continued.
The Yellow Turban Army suffered heavy casualties and retreated again and again.Sun Qin and his own soldiers were trapped in the formation of the Xianbei people. They rushed from left to right and tried their best to break through. When they saw that the casualties were exhausted, the brave Wang Dang led a group of soldiers and rushed in desperately, "Hurry up!" Take Sun Shuai away..." Wang Dang yelled, pointing at a few of his own soldiers, "The others stay behind and cover up..."
The long arrows were like rain, the killing sounds were like thunder, and the sea of people was like a tide. Xianbei people attacked and killed from all directions.Wang Dang's men and horses were immediately cut into two sections, some of them protected the bruised grandson and retreated quickly, and some of the soldiers followed Wang Dang and were surrounded by dense Xianbei people.Regardless of his life, Wang Dang danced with his two knives, slashing with all his strength, and kept shouting loudly: "Fight to death, fight to death, brothers, kill..."
Xu Rong's hands were shaking violently, and he tried his best to calm them down, but his bloody hands couldn't be controlled at all, and the shaking became even more severe.Xu Rong slowly clenched his fists, then let go, and clenched again.Zhang Liao ran over panting, "My lord, Lord Wang has sunk in again." Xu Rong looked ahead, spat out a mouthful of blood, turned his head and shouted: "Stand up, everyone who is alive." Thirty or forty bloody soldiers got up staggeringly in the middle, and everyone gathered behind Xu Rong one after another with weapons.Seeing Zhang Yang's weak look, Lu Bu raised his leg and kicked him, "Stand up straight, if you die, you will die like a human being."
Xu Rong looked around, his blood red eyes were instantly filled with hatred.The Yellow Turban Army had already retreated to fifty paces from the edge of the Juma Formation. Although the battle was fierce on the one-mile-wide battlefield, the killing sounds of the Xianbei people had already covered up the shouts of the Yellow Turban Army.The refusal formation is about to fall.
Xu Rong took the halberd handed over by Zhang Liao, and pulled out the saber from his back with his left hand. The whole person calmed down in an instant, and the trembling hands also regained their strength in an instant.Xu Rong looked back at the soldiers behind him, smiled, and said, "It's a great honor for me, Xu Rong, to live and die with you brothers today." Then he suddenly raised his knife and roared loudly, "Brothers, let's go, kill me!" ..."
"Kill..." more than 50 soldiers shouted in unison, followed closely behind Xu Rong and charged into the enemy group again.Lu Bu was tall and strong, with his feet flying like flying, he quickly surpassed Xu Rong, and rushed into the enemy's formation. Lu Bu showed his might, with the halberd in his right hand flying up and down, and the saber in his left hand roaring. The Xianbei who stood in front of him were like straws. Being cut down layer by layer by him, he was like a roaring lion, slashing and turning, unstoppable.The soldiers of the Han army followed closely behind, stepping on the Xianbei corpses along the way, singing and marching, as if entering no one's land.When Wang Dang saw the reinforcements coming, he finally couldn't hold on and fell down.Several soldiers picked up Wang Dang and turned around and ran away.This time Xu Rong cleared the way, Lu Bu took cover behind him, and the group roared out.Although the Xianbei people tried their best to chase and intercept them, they could only watch them retreat calmly except for leaving the corpses on the ground.
Tuobahan was furious, raised his knife and screamed, "Shoot, shoot... shoot them to death..."
There was only a thin ten-step distance left in the horse-rejection formation, but none of the Yellow Turban soldiers retreated, and everyone continued to fight hard and never died.
Zhang Yan punched the railing and shouted angrily, "Ming Jin, order them to retreat."
"Strong bow battalion salvo, salvo."
With the thunder of the war drum, dense long arrows were suddenly shot out from the six squares a hundred steps away from the Juma formation. The long arrows flew into the night sky screaming and smashed down against the fierce Xianbei people.
The sound of the bullhorn for withdrawing troops suddenly resounded through the night sky.
===
The fierce fighting ceased in the middle of the night.
Dozens of huge fires were burning, and the flames illuminated Yanming Ridge as bright as day.The Juma formation, which had been completely destroyed by the Xianbei people, was filled with corpses, and thick blood floated in the air, filling the entire night.Thousands of civilians drove their carriages into the battlefield and began to clean up the remains of the soldiers on both sides.Occasionally, someone on the battlefield could be heard shouting. At that time, when they found a wounded soldier who was still alive, they were calling for the civilian men on stretchers to carry them.
The iron cavalry of the Xianbei people lay quietly on the Yanming Ridge, and the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army lay down on the field holding their weapons. The battlefield finally calmed down after a noisy day. Occasionally, only the neighing of war horses and the crackling of burning trees could be heard. .
Xu Rong took more than 300 remaining Yellow Turban soldiers and Yanmen Pass soldiers to retreat to a small mountain behind the army to rest.The refusal formation devoured the lives of more than 2 soldiers, which Xu Rong had predicted in advance, but when he really faced the ending, he felt a heart-piercing grief.He was lying on the ground, looking at the stars in the sky, his heart was bleeding.
===
On the second day of the war, Yanming Ridge.
As the sun rises, the golden light fills the battlefield. With the sound of war drums and horns, the curtain of the war begins again.
Tuobafeng and Luozhilian Luoluo gathered 2 iron cavalry to fight for the first battle.Tuoba Tao and Tuoba Wei each led [-] cavalry to attack the two phalanxes in the middle of the Yellow Turban Army, and Tuoba Han and Tuoba Raccoon each led [-] cavalry to attack the two phalanxes on the right of the Yellow Turban Army. The two handsome Zhou Kongman and Dong Yemang each led [-] cavalry to attack the two phalanxes on the left side of the Yellow Turban Army.
Luozhi Lian Luoluo stood on the mountain, pointed at the battlefield and said, "If the Yellow Turban Army's second blocking formation is quickly defeated by us, his third blocking formation will also be destroyed without attack, and the first battle will be settled."
Tuoba Feng smiled and said: "The Yellow Turban Army is overthinking their own strength, if they insist on hitting a rock with an egg, then let them taste the strength of our Xianbei iron cavalry and kill them." He looked back at Tuoba Hui, and asked: "Does the King have any help?" answer?"
"Your Majesty sent someone to say that this morning, Xie Guini and Yeli each led 5000 troops to leave the customs. According to their speed, Xie Guini could arrive at Wushan in the afternoon, and Yeli could also rush to Beishan. , In this way, on the Baili Chi Road from Yanmenguan to Yanming Ridge, there will be one of our cavalry every fifteen miles." Tuobahui said, "If the Yellow Turban Army wants to ambush us or cut off our retreat, they will suffer. To more than 2 iron cavalry flanking front and back."
Luo Zhiyan Luoluo laughed and said, "The Yellow Turban Army is about to be defeated today. Why are you so careful? At this moment, the Yellow Turban Army is not even able to protect themselves. How can they spare us to ambush us?"
Tuoba Feng looked up at the sky, and said with a sneer, "Be careful. Now we have assembled 5000 troops on Yanming Ridge, and the main force of the army has gathered here. If you can't attack for a long time, the morale of the army will be confused."
Luo Zhi Dian Luo Luo smiled noncommittally, not caring about their worries.Tuoba Feng lost more than 4000 people in the battle yesterday, the loss was serious, and his courage became weaker.
After all the ministries were assembled, the horns calling for an attack came one by one. Tuoba Feng waved his hand and shouted: "Attack."
===
The drums were beating, and the soldiers of the Yellow Turbans were waiting in full battle.
Twenty-two thousand Xianbei iron cavalry lined up along the one-mile-wide battlefield. They were like a raging and roaring flood that burst a dike, roaring loudly with a majestic momentum that overwhelmed mountains and seas, and rushed over without hesitation.
Thousands of horses were galloping, and the entire battlefield was covered by a huge roar. Yanming Ridge trembled violently under the trampling of iron hooves.
Zhang Yan stared wide-eyed at the iron cavalry that was getting closer and closer. He was extremely shocked. He used all his strength to hold on to the wooden railing, and opened his mouth to shout wildly: "Kill, kill..."
The distance between the two sides was 150 steps, and the 1 strong archers in the six phalanxes shot the long arrows in their hands almost at the same time.In an instant, the arrows were like locusts, and the sky above Yanming Ridge was suddenly darkened.The iron cavalry galloped wildly, and those who were hit by the arrow and fell down were swept away by the torrent in an instant.The distance between the two sides was 120 steps, and the arrow array of the Yellow Turban Army was more dense. The howling sound of the long arrows piercing through the air merged into a thrilling hurricane hovering over the cavalry, and countless long arrows "buzzed..." nailed into the raging waves.
"Huho...huho..." The roar of the Xianbei people swept across the battlefield like rolling thunder, and the sound of angry killing shook the world.
The two sides were a hundred steps apart, and the Xianbei people began to fight back. The sky over Yanming Ridge was suddenly covered with a huge black cloud.
The drums of war sounded again, and the earth shook.Shield soldiers, spearmen, and axemen shouted in unison, full of fighting spirit, "Kill..."
The distance between the two sides became shorter and shorter, the shaking of the ground became more and more intense, the panting of the horses could be heard clearly, and the heads of the Xianbei people were dazzling.
"Boom...boom..." The entire battlefield shook suddenly at the moment when the two sides came into contact, and then there was the sound of thunder blasting into the sky, and the fierce battle began.
===
The two phalanxes in the middle of the Yellow Turban Army were violently attacked. The huge shields shattered on the impact and fell down. The spears pierced through the horse's belly and had no time to pull back. The soldiers were knocked into the air by the horses. Crushed by the giant shield.The Xianbei people did not stop, they beat their horses desperately, stepped on the remains of dead bodies in front of the formation and continued to gallop, leap, and hit, without giving the Yellow Turbans any chance to breathe.Although the three-layer shield formation was extremely strong, it was defeated by the Xianbei people's stormy attack, and was shattered by the Xianbei people before it lasted for an hour.
Xiaoshuai Deng Ji's eyes were on fire, his head was about to explode. He rushed forward, fighting the enemy bravely, while shouting loudly that he wanted to repel the Xianbei people. to crash.
"Brothers, go up, go up, block them, block them..."
The Xianbei people braved the dense arrow rain and rushed into the phalanx desperately. A horse that had been killed by an arrow flew into the sky and knocked Deng Ji, who was shouting with a knife, into the sky.When the yellow turban soldiers suddenly saw that the main general was killed, they immediately aroused hatred. Everyone forgot about life and death. Bravely crashed into the iron cavalry of the Xianbei people, even if his body was smashed to pieces, he would deliver the final blow before dying.The Yellow Turban Army is crazy, they are fearless, in order to kill a Xianbei man, kill a Xianbei horse, even at the cost of the lives of five or ten people.Under the wanton massacre of the Xianbei people, the two phalanxes in the middle road became thinner and thinner, crumbling.
===
Looking at the soldiers howling under the hooves of the horses and the wreckage flying in the air, Zhang Yan was so angry that his face was deformed. He suddenly turned his head and roared loudly: "Order Master Xu, reinforce the central phalanx."
"Tell Master Xiangkai to bring the disciples of Dazhitang to support the middle road."
"Kill, kill all these bearded beards for me, kill for me..."
===
Xu Rong raised the battle flag high and galloped on the battlefield with [-] soldiers.Wang Dang, Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, and Zhang Yang followed closely behind. The morale of the soldiers was like a rainbow, and the killing noise was like thunder.
"Brothers, kill them, kill them, kill the Xianbei people..."
Lu Bu soared into the air, picked up the Xianbei who were coming to kill him with a halberd, and jumped onto the horse.He turned the horse's head skillfully, swung his halberd across, and killed two Xianbei soldiers who were leaning over and charging, "Kill..."
Zhang Liao roared, pierced the horse's belly with his halberd, rushed up after him, drew his knife and chopped off the enemy soldier's head.Tuoba Tao charged forward with his horse, shaking his hand and stabbing Zhang Liao's back with a spear.Without hesitation, Xu Rong kicked Zhang Liao with a sideways kick, and thrust the halberd viciously into the horse's neck, causing the horse to fly into the air in pain, throwing Tuoba Tao dozens of steps away.When the Xianbei people saw the general fall to the ground, they were all shocked and roared up.Lu Bu was like a tiger entering a pack of wolves, sweeping and hacking with his long halberd, killing three people in a flash.Tuoba Tao was rescued by Xianbei people and fled in embarrassment.
The soldiers of the phalanx were rescued, and they fought even more aggressively, fighting tenaciously with their lives.
"Banners in charge, raise the battle flag, raise the battle flag..." Xu Rong raised his halberd and shouted, "The shield soldiers are in front, the spearmen are behind, the archers shoot, kill, go forward and kill..."
===
Master Xiangkai wore a white robe and a high crown, and appeared on the battlefield riding a tall white horse.
The officers and soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army were stunned, and then everyone cheered up and roared with all their strength. The roar was like thunder from the nine heavens, and the shocking entire battlefield shook.
The Xianbei people who were attacking were terrified, thinking that the Yellow Turban Army had come for more reinforcements, everyone was in shock, and the rhythm of the attack immediately slowed down.Without hesitation, Tuoba Feng immediately ordered to sound the horn to retreat.The Xianbei cavalry receded like a tide.
The Yellow Turban Army took advantage of this opportunity to quickly regroup.
Li Wei commanded tens of thousands of peasants to run into the battlefield. They sent huge shields, spears, and bundles of long arrows into the phalanx, and transported the wounded soldiers off the battlefield. It was dragged out of the phalanx and stacked behind the phalanx.Li Wei saw Xu Rong sitting quietly on the bloody ground in the phalanx, his arms were still bleeding, and was about to persuade him, but remembering Xu Rong's character, he swallowed the words again, "My lord, take care."
Xu Rong nodded and forced a smile at him.Xu Rong's heart was very heavy. At this time, his belief in the victory of this battle had begun to waver.The Yellow Turban Army lacked experience in fighting against iron cavalry. They were also very unfamiliar with the use of giant shields and spears, and the use of battle formations. Appeared.If the fight continues like this, the Yellow Turban Army will not be able to stop the charge of the Xianbei cavalry even if they finish fighting.At this time, he missed Li Hong, Xian Yufu, and Zhenbei Army very much. If the Zhenbei army stood in front of the Xianbei people, what fear would these tens of thousands of Xianbei cavalry have?
===
The Xianbei people observed for a long time, and found that it was just a false alarm, so they reorganized their troops and launched another fierce attack in the afternoon.
Due to the excessive damage to the square formation in the middle, and the death of the commanders Han Yan and Zifeng successively, although Xu Rong tried everything, but in the end he was unable to recover, and the square formation was broken by the Xianbei people.With the defeat of the central phalanx, the phalanxes on the left and right sides defended the enemy everywhere, and were also breached immediately.At this time, the Yellow Turban Army should have fled in all directions, but they acted like madmen, stalking the Xianbei iron cavalry relentlessly, miraculously, none of them turned around and ran away.
Tuoba Feng was very strange. He, Luozhi Dianluoluo, and Tuoba Hui led a group of attendants galloping on horseback, and quickly approached the battlefield. He wanted to see what caused the Yellow Turban Army to be so brave. I don't want my own life.
On the battlefield, a blood-stained white robe, white beard and hair, a tall crowned old man rode a white horse, holding a halberd, and led a group of black-robed warlocks to charge around. He was invincible everywhere he went. People are invincible, the white-robed old man bravely killed the enemy, and kept shouting loudly, "Children, kill the Xianbei people, protect your parents, protect your wives and children, kill..." His high-pitched roar inspired Looking at every soldier of the Yellow Turbans, everyone fought fiercely and never gave up.
Countless Yellow Turban soldiers bravely used their bodies to block the impact of the Xianbei cavalry. The Xianbei cavalry lost the speed of their horses, so they had no choice but to sit on their horses and slash around. They fell into the sea of people and could not move. After a sharp drop, the Xianbei cavalry began to run slowly again.
Luo Zhiyan Luo Luo pointed to the old man in white robe and asked, "Who is that? The commander of the Yellow Turban Army?"
"He is a sorcerer of the Han people, a living god." Tuobahui said, "His name is Xiangkai, he is well-known in the Han country, and he is very famous."
"Kill him, send someone to kill him." Luozhi Lianluoluo roared angrily, "Without this person, we would have entered the Yellow Turban army long ago."
Tuoba Feng shook his hand and said, "Forget it, the sun is going down, so we won't fight today. The 3 Yellow Turban Army is very few left. Even if we kill them all, we won't be able to attack again, and..." Pointing to the chaotic battlefield, he said, "If we continue to fight like this, we will lose too much, and it is completely unnecessary."
"How can we not fight?" Luo Zhiyan Luo Luo said angrily, "If one more enemy is killed today, one enemy will be lost tomorrow. We also paid the price of five or six thousand people for beating the Yellow Turban Army like this. How can we not fight? "
"Leave some defeated soldiers, and give the Yellow Turban Army another night, let them smell the blood, listen to the cries, and see the broken limbs and arms. Maybe they will disperse tomorrow morning." Tuoba Feng laughed, " We killed 5 to [-] of them in two days, and the Yellow Turban Army has lost more than half, if they can persist, it will be hell."
"Order, all ministries withdraw from the battlefield immediately."
===
Zhang Yan walked heavily on the bloody battlefield, heartbroken.
After two days of fighting, the Yellow Turban Army killed more than 5000 people, and Xiaoshuai also killed five, Deng Ji, Han Yan, Shi Shilang, Gouer, Zifeng, these loyal subordinates had followed him to sacrifice their lives. They died and fought north and south, but today, they left themselves one by one and fell on the battlefield against the barbarians.
Zhang Yan saw Xiang Kai.Xiang Kai is doing something for the disciple who died.Today's battle was lucky enough to be supported by this fairy-like master, but what about tomorrow?What about tomorrow's fight?
The crowded battlefield was full of mournful and indignant civilian husbands. They carried the remains of the fallen soldiers away from the battlefield and buried them on a nearby hill.Neither the officers nor the soldiers had coffins, no graves of their own, not even a straw mat to cover their heads and faces. They were piled up in a huge pit, where they died, where they died.
Xu Rong sat on the back of a dead war horse, staring intently at the bloody sunset, thinking of nothing in his heart, peaceful.
In the setting sun, Zhang Yan walked slowly and sat silently beside Xu Rong. The two of them were shoulder to shoulder, one bowed his head in thought, and the other looked at the sunset, speechless for a long time.
"Everyone is going to die." Xu Rong said suddenly, "To be able to die in this battle is not a joy in life."
===
On the second day of the war, Cumulus Ridge.
In the middle of the night, Yang Feng led an army of [-] to the vicinity of Cumulus Ridge quietly.Five thousand Xianbei cavalry were stationed on Cumulus Ridge.Following Yang Feng's order, the [-] Yellow Turban soldiers rushed down the mountain like fierce tigers.The reaction of the Xianbei people was far beyond that of the Yellow Turban Army. Before they rushed to the ridge, the Xianbei people's alarm horns rang through the night.
The Xianbei people were repeatedly warned by the coach Tuobafeng, so they were very careful whether they were marching or stationed in the camp. The soldiers took turns sleeping at night to prevent surprise attacks by the Yellow Turban Army.Before the Yellow Turbans were about to rush to Cumulus Ridge, the Xianbei people had already jumped on their horses to prepare for the battle.
The two sides immediately launched a bloody fight.The Yellow Turban Army took advantage of the night and the large number of people, surrounded them from all sides, and killed the Xianbei people until they were crying and howling, without any power to fight back.In desperation, the Xianbei had no choice but to break out along the two ends of the Chi Road and escape.
After Tuoba Feng received the news, he didn't care.Luozhi Lian Luoluo was very surprised. He thought that the Yellow Turban Army would be surrounded by the Yellow Turban Army when Cumulus Ridge was occupied.
Tuoba Feng smiled and said: "One hundred thousand Yellow Turbans made a lot of preparations to stand in front of us, what happened? Cumulus Ridge has no danger to defend, and the Yellow Turbans hid on the mountain and came down at night to sneak attack. Is there a refusal formation? Can they have such a big shield? Vulnerable, no matter how many people are vulnerable, don't worry. After Xie Guini receives the news that Cumulus Ridge is occupied, he will automatically oversee the army to attack, Cumulus The ridge can be lowered at any time."
Tuobahui thought for a moment and said, "My lord, it's better for us to be more cautious. At present, there are 5000 people from the Great King to the north of Cumulus Ridge, and we and Master Luoluo Luo to the south of Cumulus Ridge." With 3000 people, if the two sides attack from the north to the south, the Yellow Turban Army will immediately flee. In my opinion, we should send 5000 people to take the initiative to cooperate with the king's army to take down Cuyunling, so as to avoid any accidents."
"What accident can happen?" Tuoba Feng said disdainfully, "Even if the king doesn't attack Cumulus Ridge, we can come and go freely."
Luo Zhiyan Luo Luo glanced at Tuoba Feng, and suddenly smiled and said: "Yes, even if the king doesn't fight, so what? By the way, what is that Hun coming this afternoon? What news do you want to send?"
Tuobahui said: "We once urged the Baima Tong of all ethnic groups to come to Yanmenguan to support early, but he repeatedly shied away, saying that Qu Yi's army was stationed in Guluo City, threatening Meiji, and could not spare troops. In fact, the Han Kingdom now Suffering from floods, there is no way to provide food and pay for the troops from all walks of life in northern Xinjiang, Qu Yi is just bluffing, so there is nothing to worry about."
"Will the white horse copper come?" Luo Zhi Dian Luo Luo asked.
"He's not coming." Tuoba Feng said dissatisfiedly, "Bai Matong wanted to be a great Chanyu, but he was afraid that the Huns would not accept it, so he pushed Xu Buguduhou, and now he is punished for everything he does. Elbow, he can't even handle the matter of supporting Yanmen Pass, how will he mess around on the grassland after this?"
Luozhi Yanluoluo suddenly said, "Since the Huns are not fighting, will Qu Yi send people back to assist Yanmen Pass?"
Tuoba Hui said with a smile: "The flood in the Great Han Kingdom has only happened for more than ten days. After Qu Yi received the imperial decree, he will gradually withdraw his troops. By the time he returns to the Great Wall Fortress, we may have already captured Jinyang City. At that time, Qu Yi will be fine." After receiving the military order to support Jinyang, he knew that we had breached the Yanmen Pass, and it was too late for him. Besides, since he has no food to attack the Huns, does he still have food to help Jinyang? Still have food to fight with us?"
Luo Zhilian Luoluo hesitated for a moment, and said, "No, I'd better make sure of Cumulus Ridge first. Tomorrow, I will go to Cumulus Ridge myself."
===
Xie Guini ran back to Yanmen Pass overnight after receiving the news that Cumulus Ridge was occupied.He told the leader that the Yellow Turban Army surrounded Tuobafeng and Luozhi Dianluoluo. It seemed that they were doomed. Should they withdraw immediately?Danhan Mountain can't bear the loss of troops, and if Tuoba Feng's entire army is wiped out, Danhan Mountain can take the opportunity to take back the territory of Xianbei in the north, and its power will greatly increase.The chief slapped him with a wave of his hand.
"Who is Tuoba Feng? You can think of this kind of thing and do it? This is an attack on the Han Dynasty, not a melee on the grassland, do you understand? If I leave them, I, the king, will not do it anymore. Don't think about standing up for the Khan Mountain royal court anymore, I just wait to be hacked to death with a knife."
Xie Guini was very unconvinced, he said, if he didn't take advantage of such a good opportunity, Danhan Mountain would be wiped out by Tuoba Feng sooner or later.
The leader was so angry that he shook his hand and slapped him again, "Is Cumulus Ridge so easy to fight? If Tuoba Feng wins, you take Cumulus Ridge; if Tuoba Feng loses, you rescue him , you can’t even do such a simple thing, do you have a brain?”
Xie Guini suddenly realized, and ran back happily.

(End of this chapter)
Liang Baiwu snorted coldly, and said disdainfully: "Tuobafeng can't take advantage of Heizi sticking to the horse-rejection formation. Even if he wins the horse-rejection formation, the loss will be staggering. When we take Cumulus Ridge to block Xianbei After the man's retreat, I'll see how long Tuoba Feng can be rampant."
Liang Baiwu is a stout man in his 20s, with a strong body and a bushy beard. He looks domineering and sturdy.Sitting next to him was the young and handsome Li Yao. At this time, he looked worried and said worriedly: "My lord, once we occupy the Cumulus Ridge, we will inevitably be attacked by the Xianbei people from the north to the south. In order to open up the Chidao To ensure that the army can advance and retreat freely, we must organize the cavalry to counterattack frantically. There is no danger to defend on Cumulus Ridge. When the time comes, our losses..."
Yang Feng frowned slightly, staring at Li Yao and waiting for him to continue.
Li Yao hesitated for a moment, then said: "If we lose too much and everyone is finished, who will pay attention to you in the future? Maybe..."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Yang Zhen's face darkened, and he opened his mouth to curse, "Are you still a big Han? This is beating Xianbei people, beating barbarians, and it's worth dying for." Yang Zhen is in his 20s, tall, with a long face No need, a pair of small eyes are aggressive.
Li Yao glared at Yang Zhen with dissatisfaction, "Am I wrong? Everyone has finished fighting, who knows you Yang Zhen?" He looked at Yang Feng and said, "The commander has repeatedly said that the purpose of this battle is to severely injure Xianbei. He did not say that he wanted to wipe out the Xianbei people. The mission he gave us was to take down Cumulus Ridge, cut off the Xianbei people’s retreat, and force the Xianbei people to retreat. The commander did not tell us to stick to Cumulus Ridge.”
"Do you mean that we will turn around and run away when the Xianbei people come?" Liang Baiwu pointed at Li Yao and sneered, "Listen to me, boy, if you dare to take a step away from Jiyunling, I will strip your Skin."
Li Yao ignored Liang Baiwu's threat at all, turned to Yang Feng and said, "My lord, what do you say?"
Yang Feng shook his head and said, "If we don't stick to Cumulus Ridge, the Xianbei people will have no threat. How can they retreat? If we don't stick to Cumulus Ridge, the Xianbei people will gather all their forces to attack the commander. The commander can withstand it." Is it? The commander-in-chief’s men and horses are finished, Jinyang is lost, we fled to Taihang Mountain, and we will be infamous forever, don’t you think it’s very embarrassing?”
Li Yao's face froze and he didn't dare to speak.Yang Feng suddenly grabbed Li Yao's skirt, stared at him fiercely, and said coldly: "Do you want people in the world to spit on my Yang Feng name and call my ancestors?"
Li Yao was taken aback and shook his head again and again, "My lord, that's not what I meant..."
"You don't want to fight, you are afraid of death, and if you want to go, then get out now, don't implicate us, the Yellow Turban Army, or the people of Bingzhou." Yang Feng pushed him away forcefully, and said angrily, "The barbarians didn't kill you." Have you ever killed your ancestors? Didn’t the barbarians kill your ancestors’ ancestors?”
"My lord, it's not easy for us to recruit some troops. We have lost everything in this battle. In the future, it will depend on the face of others."
Yang Feng sneered, pointed to his nose and said: "I don't want to discredit my ancestors, I don't want my wife and children to live in disgrace in the future, I am a human being, I am not a beast, I know what I should do , what should not be done.” He looked at Liang Baiwu and Yang Zhen, and said loudly: “There is only death in this battle, unless all of our 6 people die in Cumulus Ridge, otherwise, we are not allowed to let a Xianbei escape Cumulus Ridge."
"Don't worry, my lord, there is death but no life, and I will never back down." Liang Baiwu and Yang Zhen shouted loudly.
"Send someone to inform Peng Lie and Lei Chuan, be careful to hide, wait for the opportunity, and don't attack without my order."
===
The bloody battle at Yanming Ridge continued.
The Yellow Turban Army suffered heavy casualties and retreated again and again.Sun Qin and his own soldiers were trapped in the formation of the Xianbei people. They rushed from left to right and tried their best to break through. When they saw that the casualties were exhausted, the brave Wang Dang led a group of soldiers and rushed in desperately, "Hurry up!" Take Sun Shuai away..." Wang Dang yelled, pointing at a few of his own soldiers, "The others stay behind and cover up..."
The long arrows were like rain, the killing sounds were like thunder, and the sea of people was like a tide. Xianbei people attacked and killed from all directions.Wang Dang's men and horses were immediately cut into two sections, some of them protected the bruised grandson and retreated quickly, and some of the soldiers followed Wang Dang and were surrounded by dense Xianbei people.Regardless of his life, Wang Dang danced with his two knives, slashing with all his strength, and kept shouting loudly: "Fight to death, fight to death, brothers, kill..."
Xu Rong's hands were shaking violently, and he tried his best to calm them down, but his bloody hands couldn't be controlled at all, and the shaking became even more severe.Xu Rong slowly clenched his fists, then let go, and clenched again.Zhang Liao ran over panting, "My lord, Lord Wang has sunk in again." Xu Rong looked ahead, spat out a mouthful of blood, turned his head and shouted: "Stand up, everyone who is alive." Thirty or forty bloody soldiers got up staggeringly in the middle, and everyone gathered behind Xu Rong one after another with weapons.Seeing Zhang Yang's weak look, Lu Bu raised his leg and kicked him, "Stand up straight, if you die, you will die like a human being."
Xu Rong looked around, his blood red eyes were instantly filled with hatred.The Yellow Turban Army had already retreated to fifty paces from the edge of the Juma Formation. Although the battle was fierce on the one-mile-wide battlefield, the killing sounds of the Xianbei people had already covered up the shouts of the Yellow Turban Army.The refusal formation is about to fall.
Xu Rong took the halberd handed over by Zhang Liao, and pulled out the saber from his back with his left hand. The whole person calmed down in an instant, and the trembling hands also regained their strength in an instant.Xu Rong looked back at the soldiers behind him, smiled, and said, "It's a great honor for me, Xu Rong, to live and die with you brothers today." Then he suddenly raised his knife and roared loudly, "Brothers, let's go, kill me!" ..."
"Kill..." more than 50 soldiers shouted in unison, followed closely behind Xu Rong and charged into the enemy group again.Lu Bu was tall and strong, with his feet flying like flying, he quickly surpassed Xu Rong, and rushed into the enemy's formation. Lu Bu showed his might, with the halberd in his right hand flying up and down, and the saber in his left hand roaring. The Xianbei who stood in front of him were like straws. Being cut down layer by layer by him, he was like a roaring lion, slashing and turning, unstoppable.The soldiers of the Han army followed closely behind, stepping on the Xianbei corpses along the way, singing and marching, as if entering no one's land.When Wang Dang saw the reinforcements coming, he finally couldn't hold on and fell down.Several soldiers picked up Wang Dang and turned around and ran away.This time Xu Rong cleared the way, Lu Bu took cover behind him, and the group roared out.Although the Xianbei people tried their best to chase and intercept them, they could only watch them retreat calmly except for leaving the corpses on the ground.
Tuobahan was furious, raised his knife and screamed, "Shoot, shoot... shoot them to death..."
There was only a thin ten-step distance left in the horse-rejection formation, but none of the Yellow Turban soldiers retreated, and everyone continued to fight hard and never died.
Zhang Yan punched the railing and shouted angrily, "Ming Jin, order them to retreat."
"Strong bow battalion salvo, salvo."
With the thunder of the war drum, dense long arrows were suddenly shot out from the six squares a hundred steps away from the Juma formation. The long arrows flew into the night sky screaming and smashed down against the fierce Xianbei people.
The sound of the bullhorn for withdrawing troops suddenly resounded through the night sky.
===
The fierce fighting ceased in the middle of the night.
Dozens of huge fires were burning, and the flames illuminated Yanming Ridge as bright as day.The Juma formation, which had been completely destroyed by the Xianbei people, was filled with corpses, and thick blood floated in the air, filling the entire night.Thousands of civilians drove their carriages into the battlefield and began to clean up the remains of the soldiers on both sides.Occasionally, someone on the battlefield could be heard shouting. At that time, when they found a wounded soldier who was still alive, they were calling for the civilian men on stretchers to carry them.
The iron cavalry of the Xianbei people lay quietly on the Yanming Ridge, and the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army lay down on the field holding their weapons. The battlefield finally calmed down after a noisy day. Occasionally, only the neighing of war horses and the crackling of burning trees could be heard. .
Xu Rong took more than 300 remaining Yellow Turban soldiers and Yanmen Pass soldiers to retreat to a small mountain behind the army to rest.The refusal formation devoured the lives of more than 2 soldiers, which Xu Rong had predicted in advance, but when he really faced the ending, he felt a heart-piercing grief.He was lying on the ground, looking at the stars in the sky, his heart was bleeding.
===
On the second day of the war, Yanming Ridge.
As the sun rises, the golden light fills the battlefield. With the sound of war drums and horns, the curtain of the war begins again.
Tuobafeng and Luozhilian Luoluo gathered 2 iron cavalry to fight for the first battle.Tuoba Tao and Tuoba Wei each led [-] cavalry to attack the two phalanxes in the middle of the Yellow Turban Army, and Tuoba Han and Tuoba Raccoon each led [-] cavalry to attack the two phalanxes on the right of the Yellow Turban Army. The two handsome Zhou Kongman and Dong Yemang each led [-] cavalry to attack the two phalanxes on the left side of the Yellow Turban Army.
Luozhi Lian Luoluo stood on the mountain, pointed at the battlefield and said, "If the Yellow Turban Army's second blocking formation is quickly defeated by us, his third blocking formation will also be destroyed without attack, and the first battle will be settled."
Tuoba Feng smiled and said: "The Yellow Turban Army is overthinking their own strength, if they insist on hitting a rock with an egg, then let them taste the strength of our Xianbei iron cavalry and kill them." He looked back at Tuoba Hui, and asked: "Does the King have any help?" answer?"
"Your Majesty sent someone to say that this morning, Xie Guini and Yeli each led 5000 troops to leave the customs. According to their speed, Xie Guini could arrive at Wushan in the afternoon, and Yeli could also rush to Beishan. , In this way, on the Baili Chi Road from Yanmenguan to Yanming Ridge, there will be one of our cavalry every fifteen miles." Tuobahui said, "If the Yellow Turban Army wants to ambush us or cut off our retreat, they will suffer. To more than 2 iron cavalry flanking front and back."
Luo Zhiyan Luoluo laughed and said, "The Yellow Turban Army is about to be defeated today. Why are you so careful? At this moment, the Yellow Turban Army is not even able to protect themselves. How can they spare us to ambush us?"
Tuoba Feng looked up at the sky, and said with a sneer, "Be careful. Now we have assembled 5000 troops on Yanming Ridge, and the main force of the army has gathered here. If you can't attack for a long time, the morale of the army will be confused."
Luo Zhi Dian Luo Luo smiled noncommittally, not caring about their worries.Tuoba Feng lost more than 4000 people in the battle yesterday, the loss was serious, and his courage became weaker.
After all the ministries were assembled, the horns calling for an attack came one by one. Tuoba Feng waved his hand and shouted: "Attack."
===
The drums were beating, and the soldiers of the Yellow Turbans were waiting in full battle.
Twenty-two thousand Xianbei iron cavalry lined up along the one-mile-wide battlefield. They were like a raging and roaring flood that burst a dike, roaring loudly with a majestic momentum that overwhelmed mountains and seas, and rushed over without hesitation.
Thousands of horses were galloping, and the entire battlefield was covered by a huge roar. Yanming Ridge trembled violently under the trampling of iron hooves.
Zhang Yan stared wide-eyed at the iron cavalry that was getting closer and closer. He was extremely shocked. He used all his strength to hold on to the wooden railing, and opened his mouth to shout wildly: "Kill, kill..."
The distance between the two sides was 150 steps, and the 1 strong archers in the six phalanxes shot the long arrows in their hands almost at the same time.In an instant, the arrows were like locusts, and the sky above Yanming Ridge was suddenly darkened.The iron cavalry galloped wildly, and those who were hit by the arrow and fell down were swept away by the torrent in an instant.The distance between the two sides was 120 steps, and the arrow array of the Yellow Turban Army was more dense. The howling sound of the long arrows piercing through the air merged into a thrilling hurricane hovering over the cavalry, and countless long arrows "buzzed..." nailed into the raging waves.
"Huho...huho..." The roar of the Xianbei people swept across the battlefield like rolling thunder, and the sound of angry killing shook the world.
The two sides were a hundred steps apart, and the Xianbei people began to fight back. The sky over Yanming Ridge was suddenly covered with a huge black cloud.
The drums of war sounded again, and the earth shook.Shield soldiers, spearmen, and axemen shouted in unison, full of fighting spirit, "Kill..."
The distance between the two sides became shorter and shorter, the shaking of the ground became more and more intense, the panting of the horses could be heard clearly, and the heads of the Xianbei people were dazzling.
"Boom...boom..." The entire battlefield shook suddenly at the moment when the two sides came into contact, and then there was the sound of thunder blasting into the sky, and the fierce battle began.
===
The two phalanxes in the middle of the Yellow Turban Army were violently attacked. The huge shields shattered on the impact and fell down. The spears pierced through the horse's belly and had no time to pull back. The soldiers were knocked into the air by the horses. Crushed by the giant shield.The Xianbei people did not stop, they beat their horses desperately, stepped on the remains of dead bodies in front of the formation and continued to gallop, leap, and hit, without giving the Yellow Turbans any chance to breathe.Although the three-layer shield formation was extremely strong, it was defeated by the Xianbei people's stormy attack, and was shattered by the Xianbei people before it lasted for an hour.
Xiaoshuai Deng Ji's eyes were on fire, his head was about to explode. He rushed forward, fighting the enemy bravely, while shouting loudly that he wanted to repel the Xianbei people. to crash.
"Brothers, go up, go up, block them, block them..."
The Xianbei people braved the dense arrow rain and rushed into the phalanx desperately. A horse that had been killed by an arrow flew into the sky and knocked Deng Ji, who was shouting with a knife, into the sky.When the yellow turban soldiers suddenly saw that the main general was killed, they immediately aroused hatred. Everyone forgot about life and death. Bravely crashed into the iron cavalry of the Xianbei people, even if his body was smashed to pieces, he would deliver the final blow before dying.The Yellow Turban Army is crazy, they are fearless, in order to kill a Xianbei man, kill a Xianbei horse, even at the cost of the lives of five or ten people.Under the wanton massacre of the Xianbei people, the two phalanxes in the middle road became thinner and thinner, crumbling.
===
Looking at the soldiers howling under the hooves of the horses and the wreckage flying in the air, Zhang Yan was so angry that his face was deformed. He suddenly turned his head and roared loudly: "Order Master Xu, reinforce the central phalanx."
"Tell Master Xiangkai to bring the disciples of Dazhitang to support the middle road."
"Kill, kill all these bearded beards for me, kill for me..."
===
Xu Rong raised the battle flag high and galloped on the battlefield with [-] soldiers.Wang Dang, Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, and Zhang Yang followed closely behind. The morale of the soldiers was like a rainbow, and the killing noise was like thunder.
"Brothers, kill them, kill them, kill the Xianbei people..."
Lu Bu soared into the air, picked up the Xianbei who were coming to kill him with a halberd, and jumped onto the horse.He turned the horse's head skillfully, swung his halberd across, and killed two Xianbei soldiers who were leaning over and charging, "Kill..."
Zhang Liao roared, pierced the horse's belly with his halberd, rushed up after him, drew his knife and chopped off the enemy soldier's head.Tuoba Tao charged forward with his horse, shaking his hand and stabbing Zhang Liao's back with a spear.Without hesitation, Xu Rong kicked Zhang Liao with a sideways kick, and thrust the halberd viciously into the horse's neck, causing the horse to fly into the air in pain, throwing Tuoba Tao dozens of steps away.When the Xianbei people saw the general fall to the ground, they were all shocked and roared up.Lu Bu was like a tiger entering a pack of wolves, sweeping and hacking with his long halberd, killing three people in a flash.Tuoba Tao was rescued by Xianbei people and fled in embarrassment.
The soldiers of the phalanx were rescued, and they fought even more aggressively, fighting tenaciously with their lives.
"Banners in charge, raise the battle flag, raise the battle flag..." Xu Rong raised his halberd and shouted, "The shield soldiers are in front, the spearmen are behind, the archers shoot, kill, go forward and kill..."
===
Master Xiangkai wore a white robe and a high crown, and appeared on the battlefield riding a tall white horse.
The officers and soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army were stunned, and then everyone cheered up and roared with all their strength. The roar was like thunder from the nine heavens, and the shocking entire battlefield shook.
The Xianbei people who were attacking were terrified, thinking that the Yellow Turban Army had come for more reinforcements, everyone was in shock, and the rhythm of the attack immediately slowed down.Without hesitation, Tuoba Feng immediately ordered to sound the horn to retreat.The Xianbei cavalry receded like a tide.
The Yellow Turban Army took advantage of this opportunity to quickly regroup.
Li Wei commanded tens of thousands of peasants to run into the battlefield. They sent huge shields, spears, and bundles of long arrows into the phalanx, and transported the wounded soldiers off the battlefield. It was dragged out of the phalanx and stacked behind the phalanx.Li Wei saw Xu Rong sitting quietly on the bloody ground in the phalanx, his arms were still bleeding, and was about to persuade him, but remembering Xu Rong's character, he swallowed the words again, "My lord, take care."
Xu Rong nodded and forced a smile at him.Xu Rong's heart was very heavy. At this time, his belief in the victory of this battle had begun to waver.The Yellow Turban Army lacked experience in fighting against iron cavalry. They were also very unfamiliar with the use of giant shields and spears, and the use of battle formations. Appeared.If the fight continues like this, the Yellow Turban Army will not be able to stop the charge of the Xianbei cavalry even if they finish fighting.At this time, he missed Li Hong, Xian Yufu, and Zhenbei Army very much. If the Zhenbei army stood in front of the Xianbei people, what fear would these tens of thousands of Xianbei cavalry have?
===
The Xianbei people observed for a long time, and found that it was just a false alarm, so they reorganized their troops and launched another fierce attack in the afternoon.
Due to the excessive damage to the square formation in the middle, and the death of the commanders Han Yan and Zifeng successively, although Xu Rong tried everything, but in the end he was unable to recover, and the square formation was broken by the Xianbei people.With the defeat of the central phalanx, the phalanxes on the left and right sides defended the enemy everywhere, and were also breached immediately.At this time, the Yellow Turban Army should have fled in all directions, but they acted like madmen, stalking the Xianbei iron cavalry relentlessly, miraculously, none of them turned around and ran away.
Tuoba Feng was very strange. He, Luozhi Dianluoluo, and Tuoba Hui led a group of attendants galloping on horseback, and quickly approached the battlefield. He wanted to see what caused the Yellow Turban Army to be so brave. I don't want my own life.
On the battlefield, a blood-stained white robe, white beard and hair, a tall crowned old man rode a white horse, holding a halberd, and led a group of black-robed warlocks to charge around. He was invincible everywhere he went. People are invincible, the white-robed old man bravely killed the enemy, and kept shouting loudly, "Children, kill the Xianbei people, protect your parents, protect your wives and children, kill..." His high-pitched roar inspired Looking at every soldier of the Yellow Turbans, everyone fought fiercely and never gave up.
Countless Yellow Turban soldiers bravely used their bodies to block the impact of the Xianbei cavalry. The Xianbei cavalry lost the speed of their horses, so they had no choice but to sit on their horses and slash around. They fell into the sea of people and could not move. After a sharp drop, the Xianbei cavalry began to run slowly again.
Luo Zhiyan Luo Luo pointed to the old man in white robe and asked, "Who is that? The commander of the Yellow Turban Army?"
"He is a sorcerer of the Han people, a living god." Tuobahui said, "His name is Xiangkai, he is well-known in the Han country, and he is very famous."
"Kill him, send someone to kill him." Luozhi Lianluoluo roared angrily, "Without this person, we would have entered the Yellow Turban army long ago."
Tuoba Feng shook his hand and said, "Forget it, the sun is going down, so we won't fight today. The 3 Yellow Turban Army is very few left. Even if we kill them all, we won't be able to attack again, and..." Pointing to the chaotic battlefield, he said, "If we continue to fight like this, we will lose too much, and it is completely unnecessary."
"How can we not fight?" Luo Zhiyan Luo Luo said angrily, "If one more enemy is killed today, one enemy will be lost tomorrow. We also paid the price of five or six thousand people for beating the Yellow Turban Army like this. How can we not fight? "
"Leave some defeated soldiers, and give the Yellow Turban Army another night, let them smell the blood, listen to the cries, and see the broken limbs and arms. Maybe they will disperse tomorrow morning." Tuoba Feng laughed, " We killed 5 to [-] of them in two days, and the Yellow Turban Army has lost more than half, if they can persist, it will be hell."
"Order, all ministries withdraw from the battlefield immediately."
===
Zhang Yan walked heavily on the bloody battlefield, heartbroken.
After two days of fighting, the Yellow Turban Army killed more than 5000 people, and Xiaoshuai also killed five, Deng Ji, Han Yan, Shi Shilang, Gouer, Zifeng, these loyal subordinates had followed him to sacrifice their lives. They died and fought north and south, but today, they left themselves one by one and fell on the battlefield against the barbarians.
Zhang Yan saw Xiang Kai.Xiang Kai is doing something for the disciple who died.Today's battle was lucky enough to be supported by this fairy-like master, but what about tomorrow?What about tomorrow's fight?
The crowded battlefield was full of mournful and indignant civilian husbands. They carried the remains of the fallen soldiers away from the battlefield and buried them on a nearby hill.Neither the officers nor the soldiers had coffins, no graves of their own, not even a straw mat to cover their heads and faces. They were piled up in a huge pit, where they died, where they died.
Xu Rong sat on the back of a dead war horse, staring intently at the bloody sunset, thinking of nothing in his heart, peaceful.
In the setting sun, Zhang Yan walked slowly and sat silently beside Xu Rong. The two of them were shoulder to shoulder, one bowed his head in thought, and the other looked at the sunset, speechless for a long time.
"Everyone is going to die." Xu Rong said suddenly, "To be able to die in this battle is not a joy in life."
===
On the second day of the war, Cumulus Ridge.
In the middle of the night, Yang Feng led an army of [-] to the vicinity of Cumulus Ridge quietly.Five thousand Xianbei cavalry were stationed on Cumulus Ridge.Following Yang Feng's order, the [-] Yellow Turban soldiers rushed down the mountain like fierce tigers.The reaction of the Xianbei people was far beyond that of the Yellow Turban Army. Before they rushed to the ridge, the Xianbei people's alarm horns rang through the night.
The Xianbei people were repeatedly warned by the coach Tuobafeng, so they were very careful whether they were marching or stationed in the camp. The soldiers took turns sleeping at night to prevent surprise attacks by the Yellow Turban Army.Before the Yellow Turbans were about to rush to Cumulus Ridge, the Xianbei people had already jumped on their horses to prepare for the battle.
The two sides immediately launched a bloody fight.The Yellow Turban Army took advantage of the night and the large number of people, surrounded them from all sides, and killed the Xianbei people until they were crying and howling, without any power to fight back.In desperation, the Xianbei had no choice but to break out along the two ends of the Chi Road and escape.
After Tuoba Feng received the news, he didn't care.Luozhi Lian Luoluo was very surprised. He thought that the Yellow Turban Army would be surrounded by the Yellow Turban Army when Cumulus Ridge was occupied.
Tuoba Feng smiled and said: "One hundred thousand Yellow Turbans made a lot of preparations to stand in front of us, what happened? Cumulus Ridge has no danger to defend, and the Yellow Turbans hid on the mountain and came down at night to sneak attack. Is there a refusal formation? Can they have such a big shield? Vulnerable, no matter how many people are vulnerable, don't worry. After Xie Guini receives the news that Cumulus Ridge is occupied, he will automatically oversee the army to attack, Cumulus The ridge can be lowered at any time."
Tuobahui thought for a moment and said, "My lord, it's better for us to be more cautious. At present, there are 5000 people from the Great King to the north of Cumulus Ridge, and we and Master Luoluo Luo to the south of Cumulus Ridge." With 3000 people, if the two sides attack from the north to the south, the Yellow Turban Army will immediately flee. In my opinion, we should send 5000 people to take the initiative to cooperate with the king's army to take down Cuyunling, so as to avoid any accidents."
"What accident can happen?" Tuoba Feng said disdainfully, "Even if the king doesn't attack Cumulus Ridge, we can come and go freely."
Luo Zhiyan Luo Luo glanced at Tuoba Feng, and suddenly smiled and said: "Yes, even if the king doesn't fight, so what? By the way, what is that Hun coming this afternoon? What news do you want to send?"
Tuobahui said: "We once urged the Baima Tong of all ethnic groups to come to Yanmenguan to support early, but he repeatedly shied away, saying that Qu Yi's army was stationed in Guluo City, threatening Meiji, and could not spare troops. In fact, the Han Kingdom now Suffering from floods, there is no way to provide food and pay for the troops from all walks of life in northern Xinjiang, Qu Yi is just bluffing, so there is nothing to worry about."
"Will the white horse copper come?" Luo Zhi Dian Luo Luo asked.
"He's not coming." Tuoba Feng said dissatisfiedly, "Bai Matong wanted to be a great Chanyu, but he was afraid that the Huns would not accept it, so he pushed Xu Buguduhou, and now he is punished for everything he does. Elbow, he can't even handle the matter of supporting Yanmen Pass, how will he mess around on the grassland after this?"
Luozhi Yanluoluo suddenly said, "Since the Huns are not fighting, will Qu Yi send people back to assist Yanmen Pass?"
Tuoba Hui said with a smile: "The flood in the Great Han Kingdom has only happened for more than ten days. After Qu Yi received the imperial decree, he will gradually withdraw his troops. By the time he returns to the Great Wall Fortress, we may have already captured Jinyang City. At that time, Qu Yi will be fine." After receiving the military order to support Jinyang, he knew that we had breached the Yanmen Pass, and it was too late for him. Besides, since he has no food to attack the Huns, does he still have food to help Jinyang? Still have food to fight with us?"
Luo Zhilian Luoluo hesitated for a moment, and said, "No, I'd better make sure of Cumulus Ridge first. Tomorrow, I will go to Cumulus Ridge myself."
===
Xie Guini ran back to Yanmen Pass overnight after receiving the news that Cumulus Ridge was occupied.He told the leader that the Yellow Turban Army surrounded Tuobafeng and Luozhi Dianluoluo. It seemed that they were doomed. Should they withdraw immediately?Danhan Mountain can't bear the loss of troops, and if Tuoba Feng's entire army is wiped out, Danhan Mountain can take the opportunity to take back the territory of Xianbei in the north, and its power will greatly increase.The chief slapped him with a wave of his hand.
"Who is Tuoba Feng? You can think of this kind of thing and do it? This is an attack on the Han Dynasty, not a melee on the grassland, do you understand? If I leave them, I, the king, will not do it anymore. Don't think about standing up for the Khan Mountain royal court anymore, I just wait to be hacked to death with a knife."
Xie Guini was very unconvinced, he said, if he didn't take advantage of such a good opportunity, Danhan Mountain would be wiped out by Tuoba Feng sooner or later.
The leader was so angry that he shook his hand and slapped him again, "Is Cumulus Ridge so easy to fight? If Tuoba Feng wins, you take Cumulus Ridge; if Tuoba Feng loses, you rescue him , you can’t even do such a simple thing, do you have a brain?”
Xie Guini suddenly realized, and ran back happily.
