Chapter 463: The Soldier-Slaying Demon Dong Yuanba

Chapter 462: The Soldier-Slaying Demon Dong Yuanba

Since being appointed as a pioneer officer by Zhang Jiao, Zhu Yuanzhang's life trajectory seems to have started cheating.

From Luoyang to Hangu, with a series of victories, Zhu Yuanzhang not only set a record for the fastest promotion in the Yellow Turban, but also became the youngest commander in the Yellow Turban.

Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely moved by Zhang Jue's regard, and vowed to conquer Chang'an and destroy the Han Dynasty in order to repay Zhang Jue's kindness.

Everything went very smoothly in the past, but since the arrival of Dong Zhuo's Liangzhou reinforcements, Zhu Yuanzhang's good luck seemed to have ended here.

“Qu Shuai, that Dong Yuanba is simply not a human being. He will use all his means to stop him, but he is really unstoppable.”

As he spoke, the Yellow Turban general burst into tears, as if he had been greatly wronged.

 This matter started from a month and a half ago.

 Dong Zhuo's Liangzhou army arrived at Hangu. After Qin and Dong's two armies were united, the 400,000 Han army relied on the favorable geographical location and no longer feared the 800,000 Yellow Turbans.

Zhu Yuanzhang saw that the casualties in the storming were too high, so naturally he would not continue to fight Qin and Wen in Hangu. Instead, he led an army to find another way, preparing to cross the Yellow River and bypass Hangu, break through Puban and directly attack Guanzhong.

As a result, the main forces of the two sides still faced each other in Hangu, but in Puban County, east to west of the river, they conducted an offensive and defensive battle for more than a month.

 In more than a month, the two sides fought more than ten battles, but Zhu Yuanzhang not only failed to capture Banpu, but also lost 40,000 troops.

Of course these are not the key points. The key point is that in these more than ten battles, Zhu Yuanzhang was defeated by one person. He was Dong Zhuo's adopted son, Dong Yuanba.

The most outrageous thing is that among the more than 40,000 casualties of the Yellow Turbans, at least 10,000 died at the hands of Dong Yuanba alone.

Every time he thought of this, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but shudder. Although he tried hard to get rid of the fear in his heart, he still had a lot of cold sweat on his forehead.

 Speaking of Dong Yuanba, all the Yellow Turban soldiers had only one thought in their minds, and that was: monster.

In the first battle, Li Shimin led 3,000 flying bear troops to fight against Zhu Yuanzhang's 10,000 troops, only to see such a scene.

  No one in the Han army made any move, but Dong Yuanba was sent to charge into the formation alone. Li Yuanba, among the thousands of troops, rode alone to kill Zhu Yuanzhang.

Dong Yuanba's pair of sledgehammers will kill him if he touches them, and he will die if he touches them. The sea of ​​people, arrow rain, gun formations, and chariot formations... are all ineffective against him.

 Under Dong Yuanba's pair of sledgehammers, it seems that nothing is indestructible. If there is, then two hammers will be used.

The defense line composed of 20,000 troops was as fragile as tissue paper in front of Dong Yuanba. Wherever the sledgehammer hit, corpses were strewn everywhere. The state of death was simply horrible. They were either directly smashed into flesh or had all the bones in their bodies shattered. .

 In short, no one who had ever met Dong Yuanba was in perfect condition.

 After experiencing the excitement before the war, the consternation during the war, and the fear during the war, how could the Yellow Turban soldiers still have the courage to face Dong Yuanba directly?

Seeing that Dong Yuanba alone had disrupted the entire army, Zhu Yuanzhang decided to use his body as bait to lure him away, but his departure caused chaos in the Yellow Turban command.

Li Shimin saw this opportunity and immediately commanded the Flying Bear Army to fight out. As a result, the Yellow Turbans were defeated.

That battle was like a nightmare for everyone in the Yellow Turbans. They still can’t believe that there are such powerful people in the world.

According to later statistics, nearly 7,000 people died in the first battle alone, and nearly 1,000 of them died at the hands of Dong Yuanba alone.

 The next dozen battles were all launched by Zhu Yuanzhang against Dong Yuanba alone, because he knew that it would be impossible to capture Puban without removing this stumbling block.

 Zhu Yuanzhang adopted different tactics every time. He wanted to kill Dong Yuanba with his strategy, but he really paid too much attention to Dong Yuanba, and ended up ignoring Li Shimin. Although Dong Yuanba’s intelligence was not online, how could Li Shimin let his younger brother fall into Zhu Yuanzhang’s trap?

With the cooperation of the two brothers, Zhu Yuanzhang was defeated repeatedly in battles. He had no choice but to give up the attack on Puban and return to Hangu.

Before leaving, Zhu Yuanzhang left ten thousand people to garrison on the spot to prevent the Han army from sneaking into the navy's Dazhai.

But there was still no defense. As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang left, Li Shimin led Dong Yuanba to defeat the defenders and attacked the Yellow Turban navy stronghold.

 Nowadays, the Yellow Turbans' Yellow River navy has been basically disabled and can no longer be reused.

 In the Battle of Banpu, Dong Yuanba became world-famous with his record of killing 40 and over 10,000 Yellow Turban generals, and he had a tendency to become the best general in the world.

 Before Dong Yuanba was born, Xiang Yu was recognized as the best general in the world, because no one could shake his status.

  Xiang Yu was so strong that all the warriors could only look up at his back and live with the sorrow of being from the same era as him.

 But it’s different now.

The record of killing a thousand people in one battle was so unparalleled that it was extremely difficult for Xiang Yu to do it, but Dong Yuanba accomplished it easily, so many people believed that Dong Yuanba's strength was still higher than Xiang Yu's.

Xiang Yu has been at the top for too long. Warriors all over the world hope that someone can stand up and break Xiang Yu's myth in a one-on-one situation, and Dong Yuanba is the only one who can do it.

Of course, some people think that Dong Yuanba is only strong in supernatural power, while Xiang Yu has both strength and skill.

  Xiang Yu is strong because he has no weaknesses, so even if he is slightly inferior in strength, as long as he does not fight Li Yuanba head-on, he will definitely win in terms of skills.

There are many people who agree with this view, but with so many different opinions, it is difficult to form a unified view.

Of course, these are just outsiders speaking outsiders' words, and people in the outside world won't care.

But everyone is sure of one thing, that is, Xiang Yu and Dong Yuanba will definitely have a battle, and once they meet, it will be a life and death battle.

Although Dong Yuanba changed his surname to Dong, he was originally the fourth son of Li Yuan, and Li Yuan's three eldest sons all died at the hands of Xiang Yu, so can Dong Yuanba not avenge his two brothers?

Everyone is looking forward to the battle between these two people, because the real number one in the world will only be one of these two people.

People also believe that this day will not be too far away, because with the defeat of the northern and southern armies, the final decisive battle between Han and Huang is about to take place. By then, a battle between Xiang Yu and Dong Yuanba will be inevitable.

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang had a headache because of Dong Yuanba, a messenger ran into the camp anxiously and said: "Report...to the Commander Qu, a secret message came from Luoyang."

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned slightly. After taking the letter and reading it, he was trembling with anger.

 “Xiang Yu, you are a common man, **** me...”

Zhu Yuanzhang started to curse loudly. When the generals and commanders in the camp were still wondering about the reason, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered: "Send the order and the whole army retreats and returns to Luoyang."

 All the generals and commanders were immediately shocked, and they all asked for the reason.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were full of anger and he said coldly: "Xiang Yu refused to listen to others. Qin Hao dug up the Han River and flooded the seven armies. The 400,000-strong army on the south road has been wiped out."

"What?"

Everyone was stunned, but the real test of their heart's endurance was the news that followed.

Liu Xiang originally wanted not to mention the decisive battle between Li Yuanba and Xiang Yu, but if you want to see the detailed process, Liu Xiang can also devote some space to describe it in detail.
