Three Kingdoms.

  Chapter 1856 The suffering is not over, it stretches endlessly

In fact, Zhao Yun did not rush to Sanshiwan with his entire army, but only more than 500 people. After all, no matter whether it was erecting a pontoon bridge or crossing the river, even with two boats, the fast-flowing Yingshui was still a difficult place. There are no small difficulties, so the large force is actually still on the way.

  But Xiahou Dun didn't know. He is not a god. First of all, Zhao Yun's early arrival has already broken his original expectations. In addition, Zhao Yun launched an attack without hesitation, which broke Xiahou Dun's originally shaken mood again. From Xiahou Dun's point of view, Zhao Yun immediately launched Offensive, starting to attack his own team, obviously there is something to rely on, and what can rely on? It must be the follow-up large army. Zhao Yun did this to keep himself and his soldiers here completely!

I also saw that under the leadership of Zhao Yun, those hussars were like dancing steel waves, easily engulfing their own soldiers, one row after another, one team after another, the hastily formed interception formation could not resist Zhao Yun's attack and the incomparable momentum made him and his subordinates gradually turn pale.

Looking down from a high place, you can only see Zhao Yun's torrent of steel pouring into the array of intercepting infantry discharged by Xiahoudun, and the next moment his own infantry was scattered by the torrent, but Zhao Yun's speed was Without half points, the torrent of steel is moving forward unstoppably, and what is left behind them is a mess of flesh and blood!

   After all, Xiahou Dun’s subordinates are exhausted after a long battle...

The soldiers of Xiahoudun were also beaten to the brink of collapse by Zhang Liao before, and they were revived under the stimulation of Yangdi's reinforcements, but adrenaline also has side effects and sequelae. Now seeing Zhao Yun is like a sharp knife , poke as much as you want, cut as much as you want, all of a sudden destroyed their little fighting spirit. They have put in all their efforts. Under the banner of Xiahou Dun, they pursued, turned to fight, and fought bravely. When they saw that the battle was about to win, such a tyrannical cavalry appeared again!

  God is pitiful, is there really no way to survive? !

Zhao Yun's marksmanship is simply as sharp as a dragon and a horse flying in the sky. However, when facing Zhao Yun's Xiahou soldiers, they can't parry. It must be faster to stick to your own vitals...

  Zhao Yun galloped all the way, showing blood all the way!

Zhang Liao's cavalry was enough to make it difficult for Xiahou Dun, and on the hillside far to the west, there seemed to be a steady stream of cavalry gathering. These hussars seemed to be gathering, just waiting for themselves to collapse. Then spread out the two wings to outflank the attack, wanting to stay here forever!

   It's over, lost, irretrievable...

  Xiahou Dun stared, stared, and finally raised his head to the sky, let out a howl that he didn't know whether to cry or laugh...

These days, Xiahoudun was calculating in Yangcheng, planning in Yingshui, and commanding in front of the battle. He hardly had a good day's rest. Facing the current situation, Xiahoudun finally chose to retreat, losing the opportunity to continue sitting on the gambling table and gambling. Determination.

  『Withdraw, retreat...』

  Xiahou Dun uttered these two words with difficulty, and his energy and energy seemed to disappear into the air, rain and mist along with these two words, as if he had aged ten years in an instant, and his figure became hunched.

Following Xiahoudun's order, Cao Jun's array, which was already in a hurry, collapsed in an instant, and many people dropped their weapons and ran away, regardless of whether they gave their backs to their opponents or not. They are already too tired, cold and hungry, and have no hope of winning. If they don't escape, what else can they do?

  After people have no hope, they either lose their souls like walking dead, or give up on themselves, and even some Cao Jun jumped into the Yingshui when they were desperate, letting the current lead them to death. And those who are far away from the direction of the army, turn to the woods if there are forests, and flee to the bushes if there are bushes, are undoubtedly more or less intelligent soldiers. It is necessary to follow Cao Jun's army again. Anyway, the target of the hussars must be the big fish. It is much safer for a small fish like myself to slip aside and make way.

  Zhao Yun put away his spear, stared at Xiahou's flag crookedly away, his eyebrows moved slightly, he didn't know what he thought of, and immediately ordered: "Go and see General Zhang first..."

  The river beach in front of me was a mess of flesh and blood.

  The corpses of both sides filled the surrounding area. The blood on the ground is so thick that even the rain cannot fill it, the huge and rain-soaked pink color of the crawling corpse, the bone white color of the stumped limbs and broken arms, the yellow color of the stomach hanging from the broken weapon and gun. Green, when you step on it, not only reddish-brown mud floats up, but also gray-black broken arms and limbs.

  Many wounded soldiers moaned half-lying in the muddy water, and many exhausted soldiers swayed and staggered with the support of their comrades, leaving the south bank of Yingshui like a spring.

  In this battle, most of Zhang Liao's troops were injured, and even Zhang Chen died in the army. Although as a soldier, he was prepared to die at any time, it was still a huge blow to Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao's arm was so sore and numb that he couldn't even hold his spear steadily. He could only let it fall into the **** water on the ground. His beard was also condensed into a few pieces, like a refugee who has been wandering for many years.

  『I’ve seen Brother Wen Yuan...』 Zhao Yun stopped, arched his hands slightly, and said to Zhang Liao.

  『Zilong...』 Zhang Liao saw Zhao Yun, and slightly twitched the corner of his mouth, as if he was about to smile, but also seemed to be crying, "Look at these...is...wrong..."

When people are tired, they are more likely to be influenced by their moods, just like most quarrels between husband and wife are before and after dinner, and tragedies are more likely to happen at night. When a volcano surges out, emotions tend to get out of control.

  Now that Zhang Liao is exhausted physically and mentally, he can't help but fall into deep self-blame, and even begins to doubt everything he has done, the decisions he has made, and his own abilities...

Zhang Liao had used the same strategy before, but it succeeded that time, but failed this time, and if Zhao Yun hadn't arrived, even though Zhang Liao could get away, his soldiers would suffer heavy losses, and Zhang Liao couldn't bear to part with these men. Time and time again, they re-entered the siege, but they were still unable to take people out. If Zhao Yun hadn't arrived...

Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, but he didn't say any words of relief. Instead, he got off his horse and picked up Zhang Liao's spear from the side. Most of the muddy water and **** water were shaken away, and then they plunged in front of Zhang Liao with a splash, "The enemy has fled, would you like to take his head?" 』

  Zhang Liao raised his head fiercely, stared at Zhao Yun, then slowly stood up, holding the spear, "Evening five hundred soldiers, so I went to take Xiahou's head!" 』

  Zhao Yun suddenly laughed and shook his head, "It's only five hundred at this moment, where can I give you another five hundred?" There are those in the back, but what about Wen Yuan's trouble calling here? 』

"what? Zhang Liao was speechless for a while, then pondered for a moment, and finally turned his head, "Understood, if Zilong doesn't give up, I can call the rear for this!" 』

  Zhao Yun also nodded, and said: "So, without further ado, so-and-so will go ahead!" 』

  Zhang Liao also bowed his hands, "Don't worry Zilong, within two hours, I will definitely catch up!" 』

Seeing Zhao Yun whistling, and then leading his troops to chase after the retreating Xiahou Dun, Zhang Liao couldn't help sighing: "Zilong is indeed full of courage..." Xiahou Dun retreated, but he still had the strength to fight, and Zhao Yun actually wanted to take advantage of it. With the current momentum, he gave Xiahou Dun a final blow, completely smashing and maiming him!

As a cavalry general, Zhang Liao understood Zhao Yun's intentions almost immediately. First of all, normally speaking, he should wait for the follow-up troops to arrive, and then arrange the wounded soldiers before proceeding. However, Zhao Yun moved so fast that the scene Zhang Liao couldn't help admiring the awe-inspiring determination. Because if Zhao Yun's follow-up troops arrived before pursuing the chase, Xiahoudun's troops might have recovered from the initial panic, so Zhao Yun simply decided to start the pursuit directly, and the follow-up preparations and on-site arrangement were all left to him. Arrange for Zhang Liao...

   Zhao Yun's second meaning is very precious to Zhang Liao. By making Zhang Liao responsible for the follow-up and various arrangements, Zhao Yun did not deprive Zhang Liao of his commanding rights as soon as he came up, but told Zhang Liao in this way that the past has passed, and he can only do what he can do now. Do something for the future, lamentation and regret are meaningless emotions, only actions have meaning.

  As the so-called sounding the drum does not require a heavy hammer, Zhang Liao, who regained his composure, together with Zhao Yun, truly determined the final outcome of the "Battle of Sanshiwan" that many people talked about later!

   Among them, Xiahou Dun often acts as a negative teaching material and becomes the object of criticism and criticism...

Some people say that although Xiahoudun was defeated, he should have the consciousness of a commander. He should gather the army and organize the ranks as soon as possible, so as not to suffer such a miserable follow-up defeat; Not as many as imagined, should take the initiative to look for fighters when retreating, and then ambush to fight back; some people even said how could Xiahou Dun be so stupid, and it was a mistake to hand over Cao Cao's general power to Xiahou Dun, and the general power should have been divided long ago. Come out, let the educated person plan and share the worries, and he will puff up his chest after speaking, lest others will not know that he is the so-called "educated person"...

All the careless expressions of what should be done after the event are all based on the known results to reverse the process. Naturally, every choice is extremely correct, and it seems to be born wise and unparalleled, but in fact, when the thinking is confused and the situation is unclear. Now, even the historically demonized Brother Zhu still has no way to turn the tide after the defeat at Jieting.

During Xiahoudun's escape to Yangdi, whenever Cao Jun stayed for a while, the hussars and horses appeared behind them like ghosts almost immediately, and the defeated Cao Jun couldn't make any effective moves at all when the troops were flustered and their fighting spirit dissipated. As long as you see the tricolor flag appearing, you will run away with your head in your arms with an "ow".

Under the command of Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao, the hussars attacked in turn, not necessarily chasing and intercepting all the fleeing Cao troops, they just led the troops to besiege and kill those who fell behind, or showed some resistance Cao Jun, who had the intention of fleeing, almost turned a blind eye to those Cao Jun soldiers who just knew how to run for their lives.

   After one or two times, almost all Cao soldiers understood that they don't need to resist, they just need to run a little faster than other guys!

The hussars who marched in turn carried forward the tactic of chasing and killing Hu people in the desert to Yingchuan, and used it on Xiahou Dun. In the morning, they would urge Cao Jun to get up early and exercise, and then they would come back to eat at meal time. Come to send blessings, even at night, I will also send warmth, check the water meter, let Cao Jun, who is half asleep, change his position to pee or something...

As the commander-in-chief, Xiahou Dun hadn't thought of anything, but the physical strength and morale of his soldiers had completely disappeared in the constant greetings and running, and he had no time or energy to go back and set up any traps. The only thought is to escape, and it will be safe to escape to Yangdi.

  Under such circumstances, Xiahoudun and others were defeated all the way, and ran from Sanshiwan to Yangdi abruptly in one day and one night, completing the ultra-high marching standard of one hundred a day and eighty nights! It can be said that he ran at the speed of six legs with two legs!

  However, the blow to Xiahou Dun didn't just come from the opponent...

After Xiahoudun was defeated and retreated to Yangzhai, Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao had no siege equipment, and the pursuit also consumed a lot of energy, so they naturally retreated to gather their troops and resume preparations. At this time, Cao Chunxiahouyuan, who came from the north, arrived with Cao Jun's cavalry who were also in a bit of a panic.

  Xiahou Dun was overjoyed when he heard that Cao Chun and Xiahou Yuan had arrived, thinking that Yangdi would be stable, but when he actually saw it, he couldn't help but turn pale and said, "What's going on?" Could it be that he was ambushed by hussars again? ! 』

  Because the cavalrymen of Cao Jun who came were also in a state of distress. They didn't look like they had rested at all. On the contrary, they looked like they had just suffered a defeat. Even Xia Houyuan was injured, with one arm hanging on his chest.
