Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 340
Thousands of archers emerged from the ground and shot arrows in their hands, shooting at the unsuspecting Liaodong Army from behind.Liaodong soldiers and horses are in chaos. Where did the ambush come from?
Liu Yi's head buzzed, how could this happen!
"Stop attacking! Form a defensive formation immediately!" He immediately called his confidants, "Liu Qing, you immediately lead 3000 people to surrender the archers."

Archers are powerful, but weak in self-defense and hand-to-hand combat. This is Liu Yi's consistent perception.But he soon found out that he was wrong, and the mistakes were ridiculous. There were still many traps in front of the Xuzhou archers. Among the people sent out, nearly a thousand people had not approached the opponents and were either shot to death or fell into the traps. The remaining people fell into a disadvantage when confronting those so-called archers!
He watched carefully again, and couldn't help sighing, he made a mistake in his busy schedule, and didn't realize that there were quite a few archers in ambush in Xuzhou, but their level was average, they were just relatively dense.In other words, these are not archers at all, but infantry who are good at fighting!In other words, the Xuzhou army that was defeated at first was not the real Xuzhou army at all, and the main force of Xuzhou has been ambushing here!

The fool also knows that he fell into the trap of the Xuzhou army, and this trap is by no means a temporary arrangement. With so many troops and such a concealed protection, it takes at least two or three days to prepare. It means that Zhou Cang is not dead at all!No other explanation is possible!

"Yang Yi misunderstood me!" Liu Yi said bitterly, none of the information he got was true: Zhou Cang was dead, the army was in chaos, Zhou Cang led the elite to join Pei Yuanshao, everything was a hoax, and those who entered the game were It was Liu Yi.

It is too late to find out now, the result of the division of troops is that their own losses are even greater, and it is estimated that they have lost 3000 people!There is no doubt about attacking again at this time, and it will only increase the casualties in vain. The remaining 6000 people began to shrink and form defensive formations. The only chance is to wait for Xu Qian's cavalry to come to meet them.

However, the soap bubble of hope was quickly shattered, and the scouts sent out reported: "General Liu and General Xu Qian were ambushed by Xuzhou cavalry and killed by the opponent's general Guan Hai. Our Liaodong cavalry was gone! Only 30 people escaped." back."

"Impossible!" Liu Yi widened his eyes, looking at the blood-stained 20-odd rider. "My Liaodong iron cavalry has never suffered a loss in battles outside the Great Wall. How can I lose to the Xuzhou cavalry? How many cavalry can Xuzhou have?!"

"General, there are more than 2000 Xuzhou cavalry, and all of them are good horses. Their riding skills are still better than ours, and their horses ride and shoot like flat ground." The soldiers who fled back complained.

"That Guan Hai is like a crazy god, and General Xu Qian was chopped off by his horse in a short time. That man is a lunatic."

Xu Qian, who is known as a strong general in Liaodong, is not the enemy of Guan Hai's triad.Fighting is only one aspect, and the main reason is that the cavalry was frightened.Liu Yi had heard of the Xuzhou cavalry, called the Lightning Battalion, who were very brave, but wasn't the Lightning Battalion buried in Wuchao together with the general Hua Xiong?Why did another elite cavalry come out?How difficult it is to form a cavalry: people, horses, armor, and weapons are not a thousand choices, and how long it takes to train them to be one and uniform.

Liu Yi held the iron spear resentfully, and the most urgent task was to return to Xiangping before the opponent's cavalry arrived.But it is impossible to retreat in a swarm, someone needs to stop the pursuers.

"You guys, go back to Xiangping immediately and report to Yangyi, asking him to send troops to respond." Liu Yi dare not use these twenty or thirty frightened cavalrymen, so it is better to let them go back to ask for help.

"Retreat!" Liu Yi yelled, "Liu Qing, you lead the people back first, and I'll come later."

"General, go first! I'll take care of the rear." Liu Qing was anxious.

"Hugh is so long-winded, can you stop the pursuers, go!"

"If the general doesn't leave, I won't either."

See that the sky has begun to turn dark. As long as you persist until it gets dark, you can take advantage of the night to escape and send out soldiers.Liu Yi divided his subordinates into two teams, 4000 people retreated first, and he led 500 people to form a small formation.

His wishful thinking is doomed to fail.He wanted to delay until dark, but Zhou Cang wanted to end the battle before dark.Suddenly, the sound of war drums came from the Xuzhou chariot formation, and the chariot formation slowly moved to the middle of the two sides to open an opening, and Pei Yuanshao led the army to kill out.

Liu Yi shouted: "Steady!"

How can it be stable, there are cold arrows on both sides, and there are several times the elites on the opposite side, the small formation is overwhelmed in an instant, Liu Yi has no choice but to jump on his horse and rush to meet Pei Yuanshao's snake spear.

Cao Xing has been looking for the opponent's general since he got out of the ground, and has been staring at Liu Yi, suffering from no chance. At this time, Liu Yi emerged from the crowd, and Cao Xing finally showed his skills. He aimed at Liu Yi and shot an arrow.

Liu Yi's attention was all on withdrawing troops and Pei Yuanshao, he was shot in the back of the neck by Cao Xing's arrow, and the arrow pierced his throat, Liu Yi let go of his hand, pointing the steel gun to the ground, fell headfirst off the horse, and the tiger's eyes widened , Die without peace.

Liu Qing took Liu Yi's personal guards and desperately protected Liu Yi's body. He tied Liu Yi behind him, and no longer organized a retreat, he flattered his horse and ran towards Xiangping.

Pei Yuanshao was about to fight against the opponent's general, but lost his target in an instant, and secretly cried out that it was a pity.Zhou Cang gave him the order to encircle and suppress the pursuers and completely annihilate the Liaodong Army, so he abandoned Liu Yi's body and led his men to continue the pursuit.

Before Liu Qing ran two miles, he saw a general in front of him blocking his way. "Guan Hai is here, why don't you dismount and die?"

When I meet this lunatic, my life is over.Liu Qing screamed secretly, closed her eyes, and let Guan Hai chop and kill.

In the midst of a crisis, a rider suddenly came running from behind. "Keep people under the sword. General Guan, my lord has an order to encircle and suppress Liaodong soldiers and horses, and don't let them escape back to Xiangping. Leave this person to me!"

Guan Hai glanced at Liu Qing, pulled his horse away, then turned the horse's head and waved his hand, his subordinates beheaded several of Liu Qing's personal guards, blood splashed all over Liu Qing.Two thousand cavalry joined the encirclement and suppression, and the Liaodong Army had no way to escape, no way to enter the land, and most of those who did not surrender to Pei Yuanshao were hacked and killed by Guan Hai and his men, and only a few escaped.

"My number one general in Xuzhou was killed in Liaodong, and everyone in the army was filled with righteous indignation. Please understand the hearts of the soldiers." Sun Da clasped his fists and said politely. "Under Sun Da, the current envoy Zhou is guarding. May I ask the name of the general, who is behind you?"

"This is Liu Qing, this is General Liu Yi." Liu Qing looked at Sun Da vigilantly.Sure enough, Zhou Cang was not dead, but Liu Yi was.Dian Wei died, Xuzhou people hated Liaodong, but it was Yang Yi's fault
Sun Da cupped his hands and said: "General Liu Qing, please hand over your weapon and follow me to meet my lord."

People had to bow their heads under the eaves. Liu Qing handed over his weapon, but still protected Liu Yi's body, and Sun Da didn't fight with him.

Why did Zhou Cang want to see himself?
