Three Kingdoms: I, the Emperor of Wei, am loyal and honest! - #146 - Chapter 146
The three troops of Zhang He, Gao Lan and Qianzhao were already shaken by the attack of Cao Jun’s three fierce generals and were on the verge of collapse.
Even Zhang He was prepared to go into battle and risk his life after seeing Li Cunxiao’s bravery and defeating his own elite troops.
However, at this time, as the Chinese army was located, General Wen Chou was killed by Cao Ang, and the Chinese army was defeated!
The more than 60,000 soldiers and horses were leaderless and lost their will to fight, and they scattered in all directions.
No matter what direction, as long as it is away from Cao Ang and Cao Jun, it is the way for these defeated soldiers to survive.
Most of the defeated troops chose to flee north.
Because dozens of miles to the north, across the Yellow River, is the boundary of Hebei, which is the hometown of these Yuan Jun.
The defeated soldiers fled towards home, naturally like a tired bird returning to the forest!
But there were also some Yuan troops who subconsciously fled toward the southwest corner of Yuan Jun’s camp because their escape to the north was blocked by Cao Ang.
Or flee directly to the south, toward Gaogan’s Bingzhou Army.
Only in the west, east and southeast, the defeated soldiers did not dare to go.
Because there are Cao troops attacking fiercely there.
With the collapse of the Chinese army, Zhang He, Gao Lan, and Qianzhao, who were struggling to resist Cao’s attack, directly disrupted the morale of the army, which was already on the verge of collapse.
First, the position collapsed, and some soldiers were panicked and fled in disorder following the retreat of the Chinese army.
Immediately afterwards, the whole army collapsed!
Especially the Qianzhao Division, although there are 70,000 troops, they are not the elite of Hebei and cannot be compared with Wen Chou and Zhang He’s Gao Lan Division.
Therefore, under the attack of the 30,000 Huainan New Army led by Le Jin just now, there was a tendency to fail.
At this moment, he collapsed directly. Le Jin seized the opportunity and rushed in front of Qianzhao in one fell swoop, killing him!
The large banner leading Zhao was also chopped down, exacerbating the collapse of the surrounding Yuan army!
Zhang He was about to fight Li Cunxiao to the death, but before he could gallop his horse out, he was overwhelmed by his own defeated troops and was unable to stand, and the entire banner was overwhelmed by the rebels.”Nine Thirty”
“General Zhang He, the situation is irreversible, gather the defeated troops and retreat quickly!
Go and join the lord, maybe you still have the strength to fight!”
Gao Lan led his soldiers and retreated not far from Zhang He, greeting Zhang He.
Zhang He was in a heavy heart, but he also knew that there was nothing he could do to save his life, so it was better to save his strength and join forces with Yuan Shao to fight again, so he reined in his horse. While retreating to the Yuan Army’s camp,
Cao Ang did not pursue the defeated troops of Yuan Army who fled north.
The most important thing was to capture Yuan Shao, and then all the armies in Hebei were defeated. Of course, there was nothing to worry about.
Even if they escaped back to Jizhou, they would be Cao’s soldiers and civilians. Even Zhang He and Gao Lan did not care about retreating to the southwest, but asked Le Jin to lead his troops to escort the 50,000 stones of grain and grass.
He and Jiang Qi and more than 10,000 surrendered troops gathered Li Cunxiao and Xu Chu’s cavalry together.
There had just been a battle, with 1,400 Xuanjia heavy cavalry and few casualties, less than a hundred light cavalry. , especially those who came from the Xiliang surrender army, suffered casualties. The original eight thousand light cavalry and heavy cavalry were now less than
7,000. The casualties caused by Yuan’s army were more than twenty times! Cao Ang, Li Cunxiao, and Xu Chu’s cavalry alone killed more than 20,000 Yuan’s army! After this battle, Yuan’s army was killed by the formation. , led the attack, and captured more than 30,000 troops. The remaining 170,000 troops were defeated! After all, this time, Cao Ang relied not on running attacks, but on actual decisive battles, defeating 20 soldiers head-on. Ten Thousand Arms!
“All heavy cavalry and wounded soldiers should be repaired on the spot. The rest of the light cavalry who still have some strength should put on their spare horses and go south with me!”
Let the soldiers take a breather, and Cao Ang immediately gave the order.
The heavy cavalry was overburdened, and after an attack, its strength was exhausted and needed to rest.
The light cavalry could still fight.
So Cao Ang quickly led about five Qian Qingqi marched south first and attacked from behind Gao Gan’s Bingzhou Army. Gao Gan’s Bingzhou Army had 100,000 cavalry, which was more numerous than Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin’s and Gao Shun’s 50,000 Cao troops. However
, the number of elite troops was not as high.
They were barely able to hold the line and prevent 50,000 Cao Cao’s troops from joining up with Cao Ang in the north.
However, Gao Gan would never have imagined that Wen Chou, Zhang He, Gao Lan, and Qian Zhao would lead an army of 200,000 from Hebei to encircle and suppress Cao Cao’s 8,000 cavalry. Thirty thousand infantry were defeated by Cao Ang in less than half a day!
When he saw the defeated troops of Wen Chou’s army in the north fleeing behind his own formation, Gao Gan already sensed something was wrong. He was about to retreat in horror.
Before he could give the order, Cao Ang’s banner appeared at the end of his sight, leading Li Cunxiao, Xu Chu and other five thousand light cavalry, chasing the defeated troops from the north!
“Get out of here! Anyone who dares to disrupt my position will be killed!”
The senior officials were not idiots. They couldn’t panic even at this time, so they sternly ordered the archers and war supervisors in the rear to stop the defeated soldiers from rushing over.
A round of random arrows killed hundreds of defeated soldiers.
But it was almost to no avail..
The defeated soldiers were almost frightened by Cao Ang. They would rather fight with their own friendly Bingzhou army than face Cao Ang.
Therefore, Gao Gan was unable to stop him, and instead allowed the rear formation to be rushed away by the defeated soldiers. Several places!
At this time, Cao Ang also seized the opportunity and rushed directly into Gao Gan’s rear formation along the lines of the defeated troops.
The Bingzhou army had already tried its best to resist Xiahou Dun and Gao Shun’s troops. The formation was rushed into by Cao Ang and Yuan Jun’s defeated troops. It was like a person suffering from diarrhea who was desperately trying to hold in his stomach, waiting to find the latrine.
However, when he just arrived at the door of the latrine, he was hit on the waist by someone coming out, and he suddenly couldn’t hold it in. Stop, and they were defeated for thousands of miles!
First, the infantry in the rear formation collapsed, and then the Bingzhou flying cavalry turned around and ran to both sides.
Seeing that the defeat was irreversible, Gao Gan hurriedly led his relatives. The soldiers wanted to run away, but at this time, it was too late.
Xu Chu shouted and killed him with his sword!
Yuan Shao’s nephew, Gao Gan
, the governor of Bingzhou , was killed in the battle! Shun’s Hujie army fell into the camp, with a total of 50,000 soldiers and horses, gathered together in one place.
Seeing that Cao Ang was covered in blood, his armor was stained red, and even his face was covered with dried blood. It looked like they were fished out of a pool of blood.
Xiahou Dun and Yu Jing couldn’t help but look worried and shocked, thinking that Cao Ang had been injured in the battle, and hurriedly went to check and found that all the blood stains were from Yuan Jun, and there were no wounds on Cao Ang’s body. At this time, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, he was even more horrified:”The general killed 200,000 of Yuan’s elite troops with less than 40,000 cavalry. He took the lead and killed Wen Chou’s middle army with only a thousand cavalry. Hebei general Wen Chou.
But he has survived a hundred battles without any injuries, he is truly a god!”
The shock of Xiahou Dun, Yu Jin, and Gao Shun was not fake.
Although they all knew that Cao Ang was the most brave in the world and believed that Cao Ang could defeat Yuan Jun, they never thought that Cao Ang could defeat Yuan Jun of 200,000 men so quickly!
And he also personally He led more than a thousand cavalry into the battle and killed countless enemies, but he didn’t get a single wound!
This was like a miracle!
Facing the horrified admiration of the generals, Cao Ang remained calm and said with a smile:”How could you, generals?” Don’t you know, since ancient times, there is a stone of luck on the battlefield, but the spearmen have only one stone?”
The implication is that those who use guns on the battlefield have exclusive luck!
Although in the second year of Jian’an, Zhao Yun’s legend of luck among spearmen has not yet begun, it does not prevent Ying Zhan from popularizing the concept of luck among spearmen in advance… and After hearing Cao Ang’s words, Xiahou Dun, Yu Jin, and Gao Shun couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment, and then twitched their lips. Apparently they took Cao Ang’s words as a sign of humility.
Said:”Young Master is the most brave in the world, we all know it.
There is no need to be so humble just to take care of our thoughts. Gao
Shun nodded and said,”Yes, sir, I have never heard of this saying that a spearman is lucky enough to have one stone.”
If the spearman has exclusive luck, then the general also uses a gun. Why is he not as lucky as the young master?
It is probably impossible for the last general to defeat an army of 200,000 soldiers with a thousand cavalry without getting hurt.……”
As for Yu Jin, there is a dark streak on his face. He has general talents, but when it comes to martial arts, he is not as good as Gao Shun Xiahou Dun.
What Xiahou Dun and Gao Shun couldn’t do, Yu Jin certainly couldn’t do it.
“Negative energy from Xiahou Dun +99”
“Negative energy from forbidden +99”
“Negative energy from Gao Shun +99”
Sensing the negative energy coming from the three generals, Cao Ang was in a good mood. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
His words were intended to trigger complaints from the generals. Harvest A wave of negative energy, by the way, relieves the tense atmosphere on the battlefield just now, killing two birds with one stone.
“Negative energy from Xu Chu +99.”
At this moment, Xu Chu’s name came in, and Cao Ang couldn’t help but glance at Xu Chu, and saw a look of resentment on Xu Chu’s big face, covering his injured left arm. Said:”Young Master has such a good thing, but you didn’t tell him earlier!
If I had known that I would be so lucky with a gun, I would have just replaced the sword with a gun!
It won’t take a hit either.”
Xu Chu is a swordsman. On the battlefield just now, he opened and closed his sword because of it. He accidentally received a halberd from a halberd warrior and was pecked on his left arm by the halberd blade.
Although it was removed due to the cushioning of the armor, Most of the strength was lost, but there were still many minor wounds.
It was obvious that Xu Chu was indeed a tiger fanatic, and he was full of admiration for his lord Cao Ang. What did Cao Ang say? Xu Chu believed everything, even if it was a joke. That’s why Xu Chu felt that his son was not very funny this time, and he didn’t tell him in advance.
He won’t be injured…
But he didn’t expect that Xu Chu’s martial arts mainly depended on his sword skills. If he changed weapons rashly, it would not be as good as his handy sword, and he was afraid that he would injure himself more…
And Li Cunxiao was rare and joked with Xu Chu from the side. :”General Xu Chu, if you are not good at martial arts, don’t blame the weapons.
I am the only one who used the gun, and I was not injured in the battle just now.”
Li Cunxiao’s words made Xu Chu’s face darken. He was said to be poor at martial arts, and Xu Chu subconsciously refused to accept it.[]
But when he thought that the opponent was Li Cunxiao, the leader of the five hussar generals and second only to Cao Ang in Cao’s army, Xu Chu was convinced…
Seeing that the negative energy of the generals gradually stopped, Cao Ang was unwilling………..
Just before the battle, Cao Ang spent all 2.4 million points. It was just when he needed to regain his health, how could he miss the opportunity to gain negative energy?
So Cao Ang looked at Xu Chu, Xiahou Dun, and Gao Shun and said:”I think from today on, the saying that a spearman is lucky to have one stone can be changed.
The world’s spearmen are lucky to have one stone, and I, Cao Zixiu, have one stone and two buckets. You owe me two fights!”
Cao Ang’s words were so pretentious that they all rolled their eyes.
Although they did admit that their young master and general had the luck to kill two birds with one stone.
But saying this in front of all the generals is still a bit too shocking.
Therefore, another wave of negative energy surged towards the generals.
Even Li Cunxiao had negative energy.
This moment of effort is one hundred thousand points.
Before that, Wen Chou, Zhang He, Gao Lan, and Bingzhou Governor Gao Gan were also defeated or even killed by Cao Ang, which resulted in a lot of negative energy, about 200,000 points.
Together, Cao Ang’s negative energy reached 300,000 points.
But compared with what Cao Ang spent, it was far from enough!
So, Cao Ang looked to the southwest, out of sight���The main force of Yuan Shao’s army is located.
At this moment, Yuan Shao should be leading all the remaining soldiers and horses to fight against the main force of Cao’s army led by Lao Cao, in order to contain the main force of Cao’s army and give Wen Chou, Zhang He and others time to annihilate Cao Ang.
But he didn’t know that his 200,000 Hebei elite and 100,000 Bingzhou troops had been defeated by Cao Ang.
Now that he has used all the negative energy on his own people, it is natural for Cao Ang to go find Yuan Shao and the rest of the civil and military forces under his account to collect interest!
So, after joining forces with Xiahou Dun, Gaoshun and the others, Cao Ang led a mighty force of nearly 55,000 infantry and cavalry and headed towards the main battlefield.
That battlefield will also become the final battlefield for this overlord decisive battle!
After this battle, the overlord of the world will be determined and the foundation for unifying the thirteen states will be laid!
Although the results have not yet come out, the general trend has been shown.
The overlords belong to the Cao family and his son!
……
At this moment, it is north of Yangwu and south of Suizao.
Within a radius of dozens of miles, Cao Cao led 200,000 Cao troops to confront Yuan Shao’s nearly 300,000 Yuan troops.
There are no fancy strategies, just head-on decisive battles!
Yuan’s army has more soldiers, while Cao’s army is slightly better. The two sides are temporarily evenly matched.
Yuan Shao set up a large banner on a high slope, surrounded by screens and curtains, and strong men holding tall shields formed a circle to protect Yuan Shao from stray arrows on the battlefield.
There were only a few counselors such as Xin Ping and Xin Pi on the left and right.
Because Yuan Shao sent generals such as Wen Chou, Zhang He, Gao Lan, Qian Zhao and his nephew Gao Gan to encircle and annihilate Cao Ang or to block Cao’s reinforcements.
The counselors Ju Sue and Tian Feng who had led the army before were imprisoned by Yuan Shao.
Therefore, at this time, the 300,000-strong army was under the command of advisors and generals such as Guo Tu, Shen Pei, Feng Ji, and Meng Dai.
Although Guo Tu and others are more selfish, they are not lacking in ability. At the moment, they are in charge of the three armies, and they are quite organized, on par with Cao’s army. 1.0 After all, before the war, Guo Tu, Jushuo and Chunyu Qiong equally shared the military and political power of Jizhou, and each was the governor.
But Yuan Shao looked at the mighty battlefield between Yuan Jun and Cao Jun, his expression was not panic, he just sneered with a stern face:”At this moment, Cao Cao and the main force of Cao Jun are all restrained by me.
And Cao Ang was surrounded by Wen Chou, Zhang He, Gao Lan and others. One hundred thousand Hebei elites surrounded Cao Cao’s supporting troops, and they were also blocked by the one hundred thousand Bingzhou army.
It won’t be long before the victory is reported!”
At this point, Yuan Shao couldn’t help but look at Cao Cao opposite. He took the big banner and narrowed his eyes slightly:”It’s time to let Cao Ah Man know that I, Yuan Benzhu, have never been something he can afford to offend from the beginning to the end!
A year ago, Cao Ah Man knelt down to me and took the initiative to give away the title of general. Give it to me.
It has only been a year, but you dare to deprive me of the title of general, and you dare to pretend to be prime minister!
All this is because Cao Zixiu is a talented general.
But if Cao Zixiu dies. , I want to see how capable Cao Cao can be against me!”
Yuan Shao’s words fell into the tent, attracting the support of the advisers and officials who stayed behind.
Only Xin Ping stood up and said,”My lord, Cao Ang is brave and resourceful, so we should not underestimate the enemy.
Wouldn’t it be safer to release Ju Shou, Tian Feng, and Xu You and let them go to General Wen Chou to serve as military counselors?”
Xin Ping said this. , is a word of loyalty, and he is also the rare loyal person left in the tent.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Shao’s face darkened:”How can you intercede for those three rebellious people?
Do you think that I, Yuan Benchu, can’t accomplish anything without Jushou and the others!
Those three people cursed me for defeat, and I deserve it!
I will be defeated. After Cao Jun, they will be punished!
No one is allowed to plead!”
Not long after Yuan Shao’s cold snort, a commotion was heard behind Yuan Jun’s camp.
This made him frown, and he was about to scold him, but when he saw the scene in the distance, his pupils suddenly shrank.……
