Can I get to the other side?.

Chapter 201 Capturing Ju Su (Thanks to the leader "? Yu Yu" for the reward)

"How can this old man be so strong!"

Qu Yi noticed something was wrong shortly after fighting with Huang Zhong.

The old man in front of him, who looked quite old and could be his father, was extremely powerful on horseback and his arm strength was even greater than his!

After fighting for only twenty rounds, he felt his hands go numb and the spear in his hand almost slipped out of his hand and he couldn't hold it at all.

Is this the fighting power that an old man over fifty years old can have?

It's so ridiculous!
Qu Yi wanted to curse in his heart, but he had to grit his teeth and fight on. He also led Huang Zhong to his Xiandeng Camp, attempting to use the elite troops of the Xiandeng Camp to surround this old man and then annihilate him.

Huang Zhong didn't care what Qu Yi's plan was. At this moment, he fought more and more courageously, and he wanted to kill the enemy general in front of him!

Just when Qu Yi was about to lead Huang Zhong into the encirclement, he suddenly heard shouts and screams coming from the rear of the army. Turning his head, he saw blood-stained white feathers swaying in the night wind.

Zhang He and Gao Lan led the Yulin cavalry to attack!
"There are reinforcements?!"

"How could there be cavalry in Yecheng!"

Seeing this, Qu Yi could no longer remain calm. If it was just this group of troops coming out of the city, he would still be confident of winning.

But a large number of cavalry appeared in the rear, forming a pincer attack with the army in the city. Even if he brought a thousand soldiers to the camp this time, even if he could win by fighting like this, there would be heavy casualties!

After weighing the pros and cons, Qu Yi decisively chose to give up the battle, gathered his troops and prepared to withdraw from the battlefield.

Outside Yecheng, under the protection of heavy troops.

Liu Xie had been paying close attention to the changes in the situation on the battlefield. Seeing the enemy's flags begin to withdraw from the side, how could he sit still?
"Ziyi, light the torch!"

Liu Xie solemnly ordered Taishi Ci that it was time for him to take the stage!

"promise!"

Without saying a word, Taishi Ci stretched the torch in his hand towards the huge torch prepared nearby and lit it directly.

Soon, the battlefield was lit up with flames.

It is very eye-catching in the night.

Liu Xie stood under the huge torch, waving his hands towards the enemy without stopping, and shouted loudly, "My dear! I'm here! I'm here——!"

This movement instantly attracted a lot of attention.

On the battlefield, Qu Yi, who was about to lead the army to retreat, also noticed the sudden appearance of fire on the battlefield. He turned his head to take a look, and could not look away.

"Why is your majesty there?!"

Qu Yi cried out in surprise, feeling unbelievable.

Shouldn't the emperor be in the palace? How could he appear in such a chaotic battlefield?

Looking at Liu Xie who was waving his hands and shouting something in the enemy's formation, Qu Yi's expression changed and he began to hesitate and feel conflicted.

"The battlefield is in chaos right now. I brought a thousand vanguards this time. If we can break into the enemy camp and hold the emperor hostage, we can not only stabilize the situation, but also seize Yecheng and turn defeat into victory!"

"But if we don't escape now, it will be even more difficult to escape later..."

Qu Yi hesitated again and again. He looked at Liu Xie, who was dancing in the firelight not far away, and felt that he was extremely tempting, as if he was within his reach.

Victory is so close to him!
Although he knew that this was most likely a trap set by the enemy, Qu Yi was a man of strong character and still decided to give it a try. He gave the order without hesitation: "Go to the camp first! Charge with me!"

"Rescue His Majesty from the thieves!"

"promise--!!"

The one thousand vanguards responded without hesitation and rushed towards Liu Xie's location together with Qu Yi. Their bravery was unstoppable!
The first to climb the camp, also known as the first to climb the death squad.

All those who can enter the vanguard camp are veterans who have fought many battles, and they are all strong and healthy. Everyone holds a heavy shield and is invincible on the battlefield!
On the battlefield of Youzhou, he was the nemesis of the Baima Yicong.

Although the weapons and armor of this group of Xuzhou troops were very sophisticated, they were still unable to resist the well-trained, well-coordinated Xiandeng Battalion armed with heavy shields.

"Protect His Majesty!!"

Huang Zhong was already blood-thirsty at this point, so how could he let Qu Yi get close to Liu Xie's army?

He immediately led a group of soldiers to fight against Qu Yi's vanguard camp!
Taishi Ci held a spear in his hand and protected Liu Xie with a vigilant look on his face.

At this moment, his nerves were stretched to the limit.

As long as the enemy troops came within 200 steps of Liu Xie, he would immediately escort Liu Xie back into the city.

At this moment, Zhang He and Gao Lan were leading the Yulin Army galloping and killing on the battlefield. Seeing that the enemy army began to surround Liu Xie's position, they immediately led their troops to stop them and killed towards the Xiandeng camp!

Qu Yi was like stirring up a hornet's nest, and this action directly attracted all the firepower on the battlefield!
Even though the soldiers who first arrived at the camp were extremely brave and unstoppable, more and more soldiers gathered in front of them, forming a human wall to block Liu Xie, and they were gradually trapped in the encirclement, and the Yulin cavalry also followed!
"Leave no one behind!"

Zhang He shouted angrily, grabbed a spear stuck in the ground, and threw it hard at the defense circle formed by the Xiandeng Camp. The spear carried a huge force and directly pierced through the shield of a soldier from the Xiandeng Camp, and also pierced the soldier behind him!
Horror!
This move greatly encouraged all the soldiers, and they charged towards the first camp even more bravely!

As the saying goes, "A swarm of ants can kill an elephant." What's more, the Xuzhou army and the Yulin cavalry were not ants but a pack of wolves. No matter how strong they were, there were only a thousand of them. The casualties became more and more severe. Before Qu Yi could rush to within 300 steps of Liu Xie, hundreds of them had been killed or injured!

“Damn it!”

Qu Yi's eyes were red and he felt extremely unwilling.

Three hundred steps!
Only three hundred steps away!
He kidnapped the emperor and turned the situation around!
"General! Retreat quickly! Our brothers can't hold on any longer!"

The personal guards were covered in blood and tried hard to persuade Qu Yi.

Qu Yi looked in the direction of the torch.

Liu Xie, standing under the torch, noticed Qu Yi's gaze and immediately showed a look of sorrow and sadness. He shouted loudly: "My dear! Come here quickly!"

Come here quickly, you are all here to die.

Qu Yi stared at Liu Xie for a long time, and finally retracted his gaze, gritted his teeth and ordered: "Retreat! Charge out!"

……

In the military formation.

Liu Xie looked at Qu Yi who was beginning to retreat, shook his head with regret, and said, "Why don't you choose to fight to the end?"

Taishi Ci on the side secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Just now, that wave of brave enemy troops rushed towards us as if they were risking their lives. Fortunately, Huang Zhong and the Yulin Army tried their best to resist, otherwise they would have really rushed over.

Seeing Qu Yi rushing out frantically, intent on escaping, Liu Xie issued an order: "Don't let Qu Yi get away, and bite his back as hard as you can. Remember, chase the desperate enemy to the death!"

Liu Xie's eyes were cold and filled with murderous intent.

It is better to chase the poor bandits with courage, not to be a famous scholar!
Now is a great opportunity to destroy Yuan Shao's military strength, how could he miss it?
Killing 5,000 more people means being able to capture one more county in Jizhou!
……

In a forest on the northern outskirts of Yecheng, Ju Su and four thousand soldiers hid there to provide support.

Once any problem occurs on Qu Yi's side, they will rush to help immediately.

Looking in the direction of Yecheng, Ju Su felt a sudden palpitation for no reason.

The eyelid of my left eye has been twitching since early this morning.

"Report——!"

Several spies rode their horses one after another and rushed to Ju Su.

"Reporting to the military supervisor, the commander of the north gate pretended to open the city gate, and General Chunyu Qiong was killed after entering the city!"

"Reporting to the military supervisor, General Han Meng failed to kill Yuan Xi, and his 1,000 men were annihilated by the 3,000 cavalrymen who suddenly appeared, and General Han Meng died on the spot."

"Reporting to the military supervisor, General Qu Yi was ambushed by Zhang Liao's army and is now fighting and retreating."

"Reporting to the military supervisor, General Qu Yi was retreating when three thousand cavalry attacked from the flank and broke up the army's formation."

Hearing this series of shocking news, Ju Su's body shook, his steps staggered, and he almost fell to the ground.

He was horrified and said, "How could this be? How could this be!"

"It's fine if Cui Yan and Cui Lin rebelled, but why would Yuan Xi team up with Zhang Liao to set up a trap?"

"Where did those three thousand cavalrymen come from?"

Ju Shou grabbed a spy by the collar tightly, his facial expression almost distorted.

At this moment, another big man covered in blood came riding a horse. Upon closer inspection, this man was none other than Chen Shuang, Qu Yi's confidant and the deputy general who had first entered the camp!

Chen Shuang jumped off the horse and almost crawled to Ju Su.

"Military Supervisor, we've fallen into a trap! General Qu Yi wanted to retreat, but was held tightly by Zhang Liao's army. In addition, there are 3,000 Yu Lin cavalry who have been charging from the flanks, causing heavy casualties to our army!"

"The general sent his first-line soldiers to lead the charge, but he still couldn't stop those Yulin cavalry."

Hearing Chen Shuang's words, Ju Shou's face turned pale instantly.

The Xiandeng Camp was the most elite force under Yuan Shao.

The reason why Yuan Shao was able to win the Battle of Longcou that year was that Qu Yi led a thousand vanguard soldiers to defeat Gongsun Zan's White Horse Volunteers.

But such elite troops could not stop the Yulin Cavalry!

Chen Shuang, the deputy general of Xiandeng Camp, said anxiously: "Military Supervisor, please send troops quickly to support the general!" Ju Su quickly calmed down, his brain working rapidly, analyzing the current situation.

In the end, only one word flashed through my mind - escape!
"Pass on my military order, the entire army will withdraw to Quliang!"

Ju Su, knowing that he had fallen into a trap, chose to keep the 4,000 troops in the mountains.

Since the enemy had iron cavalry that even the Xiandeng Camp could not stop, if his 4,000 troops went to support them, they would most likely be annihilated halfway.

"Supervisory Army!"

Chen Shuang's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

Ju Su actually made such a choice.

"We have fallen into a trap this time and there is nothing we can do to save the situation. It's not that I don't want to save General Qu Yi, but there is really no way to do it."

After Ju Su finished speaking, he led the remaining 4,000 troops to retreat to Quliang with a gloomy face.

This time he had obviously fallen into a trap. If he led 4,000 infantrymen to provide support, there was a high probability that they would never return. It would be better to preserve some troops and reduce the losses.

……

Quliang, as the seat of Guangping County, is a majestic city, although not as tall and solid as Yecheng.

At this time, three miles away from the city gate of Quliang City, Ju Shou was fleeing frantically with four thousand troops.

Behind them, the Yulin Guards came roaring like thunder.

Ju Su gritted his teeth and kept waving the whip to increase his speed.

Quliang City is right in front of us.

As long as he escapes back, he will be safe!
Among the Yulin Guards, Zhang He looked at Ju Shou and others who were getting closer and closer and were about to be caught up, and his face was full of excitement!
"shoot!"

When Ju Shou's army came into range, Zhang He shouted angrily, and the Yulin Guards clamped their legs tightly around the horses' bellies, used the stirrups to stabilize their body center of gravity, and began to draw their bows and arrows, firing three consecutive shots.

In an instant, thousands of arrows attacked Ju Su's army.

After three rounds of arrow rain, hundreds of corpses were left behind.

At the same time, the Yulin Guards were less than three hundred steps away from Ju Su!

"kill!"

Zhang He and Gao Lan led the charge.

"Boom!"

The earth trembled and horses' hooves neighed.

At this time, on the south gate tower of Quliang City, Yuan Shao looked at the troops fleeing frantically in front of him, his face ashen.

Just now, a scout came on horseback to report to him, letting him know about the tragic battle situation in Yecheng.

Chunyu Qiong was killed, Han Meng died in battle, and Qu Yi was surrounded.

More than half of the 15,000 troops have been killed.

Only Ju Su led an army of 4,000 to escape back to Quliang!

Looking up, I saw a cavalry of about 2,500 people approaching quickly on the horizon.

He knew that these were the Yulin cavalry that had defeated the Xiandeng camp.

He even recognized that the leading generals were Zhang He and Gao Lan!
Yuan Shao was so angry that he could not help but curse, "Zhang He and Gao Lan, these two surrendered generals, are really untrustworthy. They actually betrayed me!"

At this time, Ju Su and his 4,000 troops were only three miles away from the city gate.

But these three miles of road is the road of life and death for them!

It was impossible for them to return to the city smoothly under the high-speed charging cavalry.

Seeing the Imperial Guards approaching Ju Su's army quickly, Yuan Shao was extremely anxious and could not help but shouting, "Gong Yu, run! Run!"

In the army, Ju Su looked up at the nearby Quliang City and seemed to be able to feel Yuan Shao on the city wall.

His face was ashen, and his voice was sad, "My Lord, I'm afraid Ju Su can no longer follow you."

Zhang He held his spear in his hand and jumped on his horse, charging forward like a tiger into a flock of sheep.

Gao Lan and the rest of the Yulin Guards followed closely.

They formed the battle formation of the later Mongolian cavalry and slaughtered Ju Su's 4,000-strong army as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.

On the wall of Quliang City, Yuan Shao’s eyes were almost popping out!

Ju Su, his trusted adviser, was about to die outside the city!
Furious, Yuan Shao pulled over a soldier and shouted at him, "Shoot! Shoot! Shoot these traitors to death!"

The personal soldier said bitterly: "My lord, it is out of range."

Even if they are within range, firing arrows rashly in such a chaotic situation will injure friendly forces.

"My lord, you should leave the city quickly and return to Hejian!"

Another guard said anxiously.

The fate of the army outside the city was already determined.

With only 4,000 infantrymen, Ju Su could never resist the Yulin Guards.

I can't even delay a little longer.

If we don’t leave now, we will be besieged by the Yulin Guards. By the time the army from Yecheng arrives to support us, we will not be able to escape!

"Zhang Liao, Yuan Xi, Zhang He, Gao Lan, Cui Yan, Cui Lin!"

Yuan Shao read out the names of the six people word by word, his voice filled with cold hatred and his eyes almost spitting fire!

He now wished he could eat these people alive!

Even though he didn't want to watch Ju Shou and his 4,000 troops die, there was nothing he could do, because with only 2,000 defenders in Qu Liang, going out of the city to rescue them would be no different from committing suicide.

In the end, he could only walk down the city wall with great reluctance and hatred.

After disguising himself, he and a dozen of his personal soldiers fled towards Hejian like a stray dog.

outside the city.

Under the charge of the Yulin Guards, over a thousand of Ju Su's 4,000 troops were killed or wounded in just a cup of tea.

The remaining people were so frightened by the thought of being killed that they dropped their weapons and knelt down in surrender.

Zhang He pointed his spear at Ju Shou who was surrounded by the Imperial Guards and shouted, "Ju Shou, why don't you surrender!"

"Pooh!"

Ju Su glared at Zhang He and yelled, "How dare you, a traitor to your master, show yourself before others!"

Zhang He disagreed and said, "I am the Imperial Guard of the Han Dynasty, in charge of the imperial guards and protecting the emperor. How can I be ashamed to face people? Yuan Shao is just a traitor to the Han Dynasty. I abandoned Yuan Shao and pledged my loyalty to the emperor. How can I be said to be betraying my master?"

"Emperor?"

Ju Su showed a sarcastic look on his face and said disdainfully: "Do you know that the emperor you are loyal to is..."

He stopped talking abruptly in the middle of his words.

Ju Su's expression was gloomy and changeable.

In the end, he still didn't dare to reveal Liu Xie's true identity.

Not to mention whether Zhang He and others would believe him, even if they did, Yuan Shao would suffer the most in terms of reputation, which would be a lose-lose situation.

Gao Lan, who was standing by, rode forward and snorted coldly, "No need to say anything to him. Tie him up and take him back to await His Majesty's decision."

After that, he waved his hand.

Seven or eight Yulin guards rushed forward, subdued Ju Su, and threw him on his horse. Then the group returned to Ye in triumph.
