Xu Rong's attack didn't involve any fancy tactics. He simply directed all his troops to attack.
It's just that he used all the soldiers and horses under his command to the extreme!
This style of play can be said to be the most basic command method in the world.
But even such a simple way of playing is also the most unsolvable.
Because everything is inseparable from its sect, and Xu Rong’s command is the so-called sect, which is the most basic existence.
You can't find Xu Rong's loophole from the beginning. When he pounces on you, you can only compete with him for command, numbers and perseverance.
The most important thing is that Guan Yu, Gongsun Zhu and even Sun Jian have already discovered it.
In this kind of head-to-head confrontation, you really can't beat him.
The soldiers and horses under Xu Rong's command were the elite of Xiliang under Dong Zhuo's command. Whether they were cavalry or infantry, they were all real elites who had fought dozens or hundreds of times on the battlefield.
Under such circumstances, how could Xu Rong lose to these guys who are still improving?
Therefore, even though he rushed over from the northwest, Guan Yu's addition could not change Sun Jian's fate of defeat and flight.
Even because he came in such a hurry, Guan Yu now joined in.
In this kind of battle, Ma Chao, Tian Chou and others behind Gongsun Zhu could hardly play any role.
Ma Chao is somewhat brave, and Tian Chou is also quite intelligent, but they are both useless.
Because the overall situation has been decided!
Xu Rong replaced his cavalry generals with Li Jue and Guo Si, who were still just captains, but asked Zhang Ji to go back and completely cut off their retreat.
This was originally the final arrangement, thinking that Sun Jian was very capable and accomplished.
What I didn't expect was that Sun Jian was so incompetent and couldn't defeat him alone.
However, Zhang Ji, who originally thought he had no chance to appear, saw Guan Yu and Gongsun Zhu interfering with each other, which made him couldn't help but become excited.
He directly sent troops to vent his anger on Guan Yu and Sun Jian, who was just about to stop his defeat.
In the end, Sun Jian, Guan Yu, and Ma Chao, who was going crazy again, relied on their extraordinary bravery to create a gap and escape with the defeated soldiers and horses.
However, Xu Rong still did not continue the pursuit this time, as if he did not want to kill them all.
Of course, Xu Rong didn't stop there. When Sun Jian and Guan Yu gathered their defeated troops and arrived at Yangren County, they got the news about Xu Rong.
It turned out that not long ago, Xu Rong did not continue to focus on them after defeating them.
It was as if he didn't take them to heart. He directly used the power of victory and then led his troops to turn over and penetrate Kong Ni in Yingchuan.
Poor the "former" governor of Yuzhou, he was deprived of his position as governor of Yuzhou just because he responded to the wrong person. In the end, he still did not escape the fate of death.
This time it was Li Jue who took the field in person. Kong Nie, who was already sick with anger, fell ill and was frightened during the battle, and died on the spot, giving Li Jue his meritorious service in vain.
And because of the death of Yuzhou governor Kong Min in battle, the entire Yuzhou was in chaos. I don't know how many wealthy families and people in Yuzhou were massacred by the Xiliang army led by Li Jue and Guo Si.
The Central Plains was wealthy. Even the Yellow Turban Rebellion had not had much impact. Coupled with the recovery over the years, the Central Plains was wealthy beyond the imagination of all the soldiers of the Xiliang Army.
So when the door for looting and massacre was opened, the whole Yuzhou was completely in chaos!
As if the killings couldn't stop, they began to take place crazily in Yuzhou.
When Sun Jian and others heard the news, their expressions changed in different ways.
Among them, Sun Jian, the Jiangdong Tiger, didn't know whether to say that he was lucky to have no further trouble, or whether to say that he was unfortunate to have no reinforcements.
After the death of Kong Yu, the governor of Yuzhou, the only one who can help now is Yuan Shu.
As his backer, Yuan Shu is already very powerful, as long as Yuan Shu is willing to continue to help him.
Then Sun Jian can guarantee that he will get enough support.
However, although Yuan Shu is now Sun Jian's backer, it is obvious that he does not want to deal with this matter.
It's not that Yuan Shu has any objections to Sun Jian, but because this guy is currently conquering Nanyang and Jingzhou and really can't take care of Sun Jian.
So now the only thing Sun Jian can do is to gather the defeated troops while Xu Rong and others can't take care of him, and restore his strength as soon as possible.
Just as they continued to gather the defeated army and continued to recruit soldiers to prepare for another battle, Xu Rong, the commander-in-chief of the Xiliang Army, came again.
Looking at the Xiliang soldiers and horses below the city, seeing the flags flying and the drums beating loudly, even Sun Jian, who had always been unruly, shut his mouth this time.
Looking at Xu Rong and Xiliang Jun below, thin drops of cold sweat began to appear on their foreheads.
Even Guan Yu lost his pride and his face was full of nervousness.
He also knew that if Xu Rong wanted to attack the city at this time, the little strength they had just regained would probably be gone.
"General Gongsun, if Xu Rong starts fighting again soon, you should leave immediately.
The last general... The last general will naturally hold Xu Rong here, and will not embarrass the general and Jincheng County.
But remember, general, don't stop once you start running. "
Looking at Xu Rong and the Xiliang soldiers and horses below, Guan Yu had already begun to give his last words. This attitude was particularly tragic.
Even at this time, he, a proud general, really regretted it.
Guan Yu was not worried about himself, but felt that now that he had ended up like this, he might never have the chance to let the world see what Guan Yunchang was capable of.
Even looking at Gongsun Zhu beside him, he couldn't help but feel sad.
Gongsun Zhu is a good general and a guy whom he admires very much, but unfortunately... his eldest brother is Liu Xuande.
At this point, Guan Yu could only say sorry.
Finally, he secretly swore in his heart that if it really came to that point, the only thing he could do was to escort Gongsun Zhu out.
As long as he is escorted out, he will be worthy of the favor he has received during this period...
Under Guan Yu's determined eyes, Gongsun Zhu also slowly walked to the front of the city wall, and looked at Xu Rong under the city wall, his face became very serious.
"If General Guan says that, that kid won't dare to accept it."
"General..."
"We actually came together, so when it comes to that point... If we want to leave, we have to leave together!"
