Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 78 Cao Cao's Cavalry
Chapter 78

"What's going on, why did the Yellow Turban Army go berserk all of a sudden?"

Seeing the sudden morale boost of the Yellow Turban Army, a general of the army shouted like he was going crazy.

"Don't panic, the army is in formation. The Yellow Turban Army is just a mob. What kind of combat power can they have? Send an order to beat the drum, and the army will move forward to stop the Yellow Turban Army."

Seeing the Yellow Turbans rushing up, Lu Zhi responded calmly, and immediately ordered the army to mobilize. Since the morale of the Yellow Turbans has been greatly boosted, the officers and soldiers must use iron and blood to deal a head-on blow to the Yellow Turbans, otherwise if the morale of the Yellow Turbans in front of them is infected With the 15 Yellow Turbans still in the city, they will come out together. Lu Zhi's [-] officers and soldiers may no longer be able to control the situation.

Originally there were 15 officers and soldiers, which was just right to deal with Zhang Liang's 2 Yellow Turbans. However, there were still [-] Yellow Turbans in Guangzong City.Even so, Lu Zhi was still uneasy. He really didn't know what to do. After all, he was facing too many people, and in a hurry, he had no good solution. Lu Zhi simply didn't expect it. No matter how much damage the army has caused, I only hope that it can cause a certain amount of psychological pressure on Zhang Liang. In this way, Lu Zhi will have more initiative in the battle against the Yellow Turbans.

On the battlefield, arrows flew like locusts, covering the sky and the sun. The Yellow Turban Army and the official army clashed and collided, and another brutal fight began. Although the official army was tyrannical and well-trained, their fighting spirit was not high. Without faith, they just know how to obey the orders of the superiors and serve as soldiers on food; although the Yellow Turban Army is a mob and not strong in combat power, they have the support of faith, and everyone strives to be the first, not afraid of death.They met each other twice, but they were evenly matched.

For the officers and soldiers under Lu Zhi, they had followed Lu Zhi across the land of Hebei in the past few months, and they were invincible. They had never met such a brave Yellow Turban Army.

For these Yellow Turban soldiers who came from Yingchuan, they were originally golden believers who lived outside. Now that they have finally come to Guangzong, they will see Zhang Jiao, who is like a god in their minds, but at this time The officers and soldiers came out to make trouble, which is tolerable and unbearable. Dare to do harm to their leader, surround Zhang Jiao, and now prevent them from seeing Zhang Jiao, this really makes them very angry. All these angers are mixed together. Formed an unparalleled combat power, burst out all of a sudden.

Just outside Guangzong City, when the Yellow Turban Army and the official army were killing each other inextricably, the first young man in Guangzong City who wore a yellow scarf and looked calm, stared at the battle outside the city without blinking. This person was the famous Yellow Turban general Pocai.

"Send someone to report to General Tiangong, and say that General Tiangong has led troops to rescue, and he will go out of the city to meet him at the end, so please allow General Tiangong."

It was only after seeing this wave clearly that Zhang Liang's men and horses came from outside the city, and he said to a messenger beside him.

Not long after, the messenger had returned to the side of the general on the top of the city, and a tall, mighty-looking young general was brought behind him.

"General Guan Hai is here, could it be that General Tiangong ordered General Guan Hai to go out of the city to meet General Rengong?"

When Bocai saw the young general behind the messenger, he was shocked at first, and hurried forward to salute. There is no way that the military is based on martial arts, and those with high martial arts skills will naturally be respected more.

"General Tiangong has an order, ordering you and me to lead troops out of the city to welcome General Rengong back to the city."

After Guan Hai finished speaking, Xiang Bo nodded, and the two immediately went down to the city to rectify the troops.

Outside Guangzong City, the Yellow Turban Army and the official army had already been killed together, and it was indistinguishable that they were killed for a while.Seeing this scene, Lu Zhi's face was solemn, and he sighed slightly, having made up his mind.

"Order Cao Cao, the cavalry will cover up from the flanks immediately, if the fight continues like this, our army will suffer too much loss."

Originally, Lu Zhi wanted to take advantage of the fact that the Yellow Turban Army was exhausted from afar, and his own army was waiting for work, so he could go up and teach the Yellow Turban Army a lesson, and then wait for an opportunity. However, the development of the battlefield situation was beyond Lu Zhi's expectations. He was so brave that he caused a lot of casualties to the officers and soldiers. Lu Zhi had to launch a surprise attack in advance to let the army withdraw from the battle.

You must know that once the official army is bitten by Zhang Liang's Yellow Turban Army, if there is another large army in Guangzong City to attack, the official army will be in danger of being wiped out.As the commander-in-chief of the official army, what Lu Zhi had to deal with was the Yellow Turban Army in the entire Hebei region. Every champion soldier was Lu Zhi's heart and soul, and Lu Zhi really couldn't afford to lose.

Just when the yellow turban army and the official army were fighting closely, the flag of the official army flashed, and a cavalry team of 8000 to [-] people came from a distance. As the cavalry approached, the ground began to tremble and rumble. There was a loud noise, and there was a big black flag in front of the army, with the word "Cao" written on it, mighty and straight, full of murderous aura, it was Cao Cao who led the troops to kill.

"The enemy army raised troops and suddenly attacked our army's flank, what should we do?"

Seeing the sudden appearance of the official cavalry, Zhang Liang was a little horrified for a moment. He did not expect that he would have taken the yellow scarf army to Guangzong by surprise, but the official army could make arrangements in such a short period of time and even send the cavalry. Ambush and attack your own flank.

"The last general is not talented. I would like to lead our cavalry to stop the enemy cavalry and buy time for our army to enter Guangzong."

When Zhang Liang was surprised, a general had already come to his side and offered to be brave. Zhang Liang turned his head and saw that it was his general Pei Yuanshao.

"Okay, I will entrust all the four thousand cavalry of our army to you. You must protect the flanks of our army."

Seeing that Pei Yuanshao was willing to go, Zhang Liang was moved, and hurriedly sent Pei Yuanshao to fight.

"General Rengong, my subordinate Zang Ba is quite brave, but he lacks training on the battlefield. Why not let him go with General Pei."

Seeing that Pei Yuanshao was going to meet Cao Cao, Lu Bu hurriedly dispatched Zang Ba to go with him. It wasn't that Lu Bu felt that Zang Ba lacked training on the battlefield, but that Lu Bu had a good impression of Pei Yuanshao and wanted to gain some emotional points. Chance.

"Okay, with Brother Zang Ba's help, Pei Yuanshao has more confidence."

Seeing that Lu Bu patted Zang Ba to go with him, Pei Yuanshao first agreed. Pei Yuanshao had a lot of contact with Zang Ba these days. He knew Zang Ba's ability and wanted to make friends with Zang Ba. It's better than making friends with anything.

"Very well, then let's do this, I will entrust the flank of our army to the two."

Zhang Liang nodded in agreement, and then bowed his hands to the two.The two immediately returned the gift and set off together.

After Pei Yuanshao and Zang Ba set off, Zhang Liang took the lead and led the Yellow Turban Army to the city of Guangzong.Zhang Liang understands that now is the time to buy time. As long as he reaches Guangzong City, he will no longer have to be afraid of the officers and soldiers. By then, Zhang Liang will have 15 yellow scarves and 22 yellow scarves in Guangzong City. With an army of 01, the odds of winning against 30 officers and soldiers are not much higher at [-]:[-].

At this moment, suddenly the gate of Guangzong City opened wide, and groups of cavalry roared out. The first young general was Guan Hai. Guan Hai took the lead, and the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army rushed out. It was not directed at the side where Zhang Liangjun was, but directly directed at the direction of the official army's camp. It turned out to be a move to encircle Wei and save Zhao.

After Guan Hai's cavalry had all left Guangzong City, another general appeared at the gate of Guangzong City. This man was young and mighty, with a heroic look on his brows, but it was Na Bocai. They mobilized teams of infantry and archers to guard the gate of Guangzong, leaving a passage in the middle. Obviously Bo Cai wanted to protect Zhang Liang's army from entering the city.

Seeing that Guangzong City finally dispatched troops, Lu Zhi sighed slightly.

"Ming Jin, withdraw your troops."

Now that the battle has been fought to such an extent, Lu Zhi already knew in his heart that the war in Jizhou might not be the same as before. He, Lu Zhi, has devoted all his energy to creating the situation in Jizhou these days, and he is afraid that it will be ruined in one fell swoop.However, as an important minister of the imperial court, Lu Zhi could only do his best.

When Lu Zhi gave an order, all the sergeants immediately got busy. Taking advantage of the psychological pressure caused by the impact of Cao Cao's cavalry, the yellow turban army was in a neutral position. As they retreated, many archers of the official army formed a square formation at the gate of the camp, and made a posture to guard against the attack of the Yellow Turban Army, covering the retreating official army and returning to the camp.

At this time, the yellow turban cavalry led by Pei Yuanshao and Zang Ba had already fought with Cao Cao's cavalry.Cao Cao was originally rebellious and regarded the heroes of the world as nothing, and he looked down on these Yellow Turbans even more. Seeing that the Yellow Turbans fought for Zhang Jiao for their beliefs, Cao Cao just scoffed, thinking that these Yellow Turbans were stupid.

But at the same time, Cao Cao was very envious of Zhang Jiao. There were so many people willing to follow him. Cao Cao thought more than once: I don’t know when I, Cao Cao, will be able to respond to everyone, be admired by everyone, hold the world and be the leader, and make decisions for thousands of years. The life and death of thousands of people.But thinking of this, Cao Cao not only smiled wryly, the world of this big man is the world of the old Liu family, and he is no more than the nursing home of the old Liu family, so why do you want such a big revenge?
The cavalry of the officer army and the cavalry of the yellow turban collided with each other, hacked and killed each other, and took off each other's heads. The battle of the cavalry was different from the battle of the infantry. However, in the face of the cavalry of the official army, the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army seemed vulnerable. The official army only took a few sprints and defeated the Yellow Turban Army. The cavalry rushed in a mess, and Zhang Liang's cavalry was already small, and they were at a disadvantage in number.

Fortunately, both Pei Yuanshao and Zang Ba were brave men. They rushed left and right with hundreds of elites, causing many casualties to the officers and soldiers, but bought Zhang Liang a lot of time.As the infantry of the officers and soldiers retreated, the infantry of the Yellow Turban Army quickly approached the foot of Guangzong City, protected by Guangzong City, and began to enter the city one after another.

At this time, less than half of the Yellow Turban cavalry around Pei Yuanshao and Zang Ba were left. Looking at Cao Cao's posture, he actually let his cavalry surround the Yellow Turban cavalry in the middle and waved the flag. Raising his saber, he turned around these yellow turban cavalrymen, trying to strangle these yellow turban cavalrymen in one fell swoop.
