When Xu Rong led his army to join the battlefield, it meant that Liangren had passed the most difficult moment. He led Wan Yuliang to draw a conspicuous arc between the two mountains. This route was not short and almost passed through the entire battlefield. This made his movements clear to everyone on the battlefield, but this was Yang Conspiracy, the Jing people were flanked by infantry, and they could only watch as Liangqi came flying towards them.

Although Xu Rong was famous among the Liang people for his resourcefulness, he was not the kind of military commander who would just sit on a chair and give orders. He always took the lead and marched forward bravely. He was now forty-three years old, but his fierceness had not diminished. He was dressed in pitch-black armor, astride a pitch-black war horse, holding a long-handled spear in his hand, and charged straight into the flank of the Jing people's army like a black whirlwind.

His voice was like a bell breaking into pieces, and his power was like a white rainbow penetrating the sun. The soldiers were all proud of such a wise and courageous commander, so they all depended on each other for life and death. Sun Jian had expected such a scene, so he placed most of the bows and arrows in the army on Wu Jing's department on the right wing. Wu Jing did not hesitate. The arrows were fired in succession, like a black hurricane in the air, hitting the Liang cavalry armor. Up above.

An arrow penetrated the gap in the armor and shot into Xu Rong's shoulder blade, but he still held the gun firmly, hugged the horse's neck and rushed forward. The soldiers behind him also stepped into the enemy's formation, tearing Wu Jing's formation apart. Changkou, the Jing people tried to stabilize the front several times, but in the end no one blocked it, allowing Xu Rong's troops to move across the battlefield, successively defeating Sun Xiang, Sun Jing, and Zu Mao, and were about to break into Wu Jing's main formation.

Sun Jian obviously did not expect Xu Rong to break through so quickly. He had expected to defeat Sun Xiang and Sun Jing, but he had never expected that Zu Mao Formation would be breached. Zu Mao was Sun Jian's favorite general. He never feared death in battle, and often acted as Sun Jian's substitute to attract enemy troops, so Sun Jian trusted him deeply.

But now Zu Mao has also been defeated, and the enemy's terror is evident.

At this time, Sun Jian considered the situation. If Xu Rong was allowed to break forward again, not to mention that it would not cause the entire army to collapse, but his own life would also be in danger. But he was not unprepared. He quickly instructed his soldiers to shoot a dynamite in the air as a signal, and ordered each formation to send an order to the back, inviting Guan Yu in the rear formation to join the battlefield.

When Guan Yu saw Xu Rong entering the formation, he had been waiting for this moment for a long time. Six thousand people followed the infantry for half a day. When they got on their horses, it was like a vast black forest suddenly appeared in the Jing people's army. Dong Zhuo saw this group of cavalry on the top of the mountain and couldn't help but panicked: "Oh no, where did Sun Jian come from with so many cavalry?"

Naturally, he would not know that Chen Chong had secretly joined forces with Yuan Shu, and Guan Yu had no intention of showing mercy. The people organized the cavalry into three large formations, with Xu Huang in front, Guan Yu in the middle, and Gao Zhun in the back. Each large formation was divided into two small formations on the left and right to communicate with each other and assist each other. The first section cut off Xu Rong's The Chinese army blocked Xu Rong's backup in the second section, and charged diagonally in the third section to help the Jing people stabilize their position. Each team advanced with the momentum of a conflagration, and the horsemen and Liangqi fought together. The Jing people responded with spears and cold arrows. At this moment, the entire battlefield fell into a state of melee.

When Xu Rong saw the horsemen rushing towards him, he did not panic. Instead, he calmly analyzed the situation and concluded: he had broken through three formations, and the enemy's surprise troops could divide the two armies at most. It would be difficult to catch up with the vanguard for a while, and there were still three thousand soldiers beside him. Knights, they had recharged their energy before, and now they still have some energy left. Still able to impact forward. He looked two miles ahead at General Polu's flag. The blood of Xuantu people made his martial spirit restless. Xu Rong quickly made his decision: "Keep moving forward! If we kill the middle army, our army will win!" "

At such a moment of life and death, Liangqi all burst out with unprecedented strength. They no longer paid attention to the soldiers in front of them, the arrow feathers on their heads, the spears on their sides, or the battle line behind them. They had only one target: the black and red-edged figure. Big flag! Many Jing soldiers tried to step forward to stop them, but Liang Qi stepped on them head-on, and all of them were reduced to pieces under Xiliang's horse. All the troops could only use bows and arrows on both sides to reduce the intensity of Liang Qi's attack.

The speed of the Liangqi's advance was really beyond Sun Jian's expectation. He was a little panicked when he saw this, but he immediately put on his robe and said to the soldiers around him: "On the battlefield, only the brave will win. Wait until the Liang people come over. You follow me forward, and remember, never take a step back, as taking a step back will lead to death or no life!"

At this time, Huang Gai and Huang Gongfu from Lingling stood up. He was a county official Sun Jian conquered in Changsha. He often kept him by his side to convey military orders. Unexpectedly, he said to Sun Jian at this time: "Sun Tzu once said: 'It is as motionless as a mountain.' "Three armies can seize the Qi". The Mingfu is now in the mountains, and the three armies are all focused here. However, the Liang people want to move the mountain by breaking it. How can the Mingfu take the initiative to destroy the Qi? I am willing to lead the troops forward, for Mingfu rescues the siege!"

Sun Jian was moved when he heard this and blamed himself: "Huang Jun is a good man! I usually fail to see it. I am derelict in my duty!"

He asked the three hundred cavalry around him to follow Huang Gai. He took out a wine bag from the saddle, dismounted, filled a bowl, and handed the wine to Huang Gai with both hands. Huang Gai drank it all in one gulp and threw the wine bowl away. On the ground, he shouted to the riders to advance, brandished his sword and shouted: "The sky is above, the ancestors of the Han Dynasty are above, I, Huang Gai, are here to defeat the enemy. I forget about life and death. I only have the determination not to defeat and not to return." Please learn from this!" After hearing this, the knights all became excited and jumped into battle with him.

Xu Rong and his men were invincible when they suddenly saw a group of knights appearing in front of them. They thought it was Sun Jian coming to fight to the death, and they were all excited to fight. But when the knights on the opposite side came closer, they saw that the leading knight was only wearing ordinary armor, and his mount was ordinary. He was obviously an unknown person that he had never seen before. The Liang people were greatly disappointed, but Xu Rong encouraged him and said: "Kill them , Sun Jian will no longer have any soldiers to use, encourage him! Encourage him!" Then they regained their energy.

Who would have expected that after Huang Gai led the charge into Liangqi, no one could stop him. He didn't care about his own life or death, he was fighting for his life with all his moves. Liang Qi who was fighting against him hesitated a little and then killed him for him. What's even more terrible is that Huang Gai is getting stronger from drinking and is using his sword even more fiercely. Seeing that they can't kill him one on one, Liang Ren gathers together and stabs at him with their swords. Huang Gai can't block it and stabs him one after another. Several wounds were made, but the knife in his hand remained unchanged.

Xu Rong looked worried and shouted loudly from the side: "Thrust the horse! Stab the horse!" Someone reacted and immediately stabbed the horse with a long halberd. The tip of the halberd went from top to bottom, along the horse's neck to Huang Gai's skirt. , along the gap between the skirt and the armor, it was stabbed into Huang Gai's lower abdomen. As the tip of the halberd was pulled out, a section of intestines also came out of the wound.

Huang Gai and his horse fell to the ground. The man behind him quickly dismounted and helped Huang Gai up. He tore off his sleeves and wrapped Huang Gai's wound. However, he did not dare to touch Huang Gai's intestines. Huang Gai was impatient and used his hands. He held the intestines in his hands and stuffed them into Du Zi. He tore the wound wide and stuffed it in at once, then wrapped his belly with cloth. This Jingqi helped Huang Gai ride on his horse. Huang Gai thanked him and actually took the knife to fight Liang Ren.

Xu Rong and others watched the whole process from the side, their souls were gone, and they couldn't help but exclaimed: "Is this man the reincarnation of Xing Tian, ​​and he is unkillable?" The rest of the Jing people were also greatly encouraged, and everyone moved forward bravely, without fear. Life and death, Xu Rong knew that his army's morale had been dissipated and the best opportunity had been lost, so he could only lead his men to break out of the encirclement. The Jing people finally drove back the Liang people in front of Sun Jian's formation.

When Huang Gai returned to Sun Jian with his stomach in his hands, Sun Jian asked him with a smile: "Is it bad for Liang people to have weapons?" Huang Gai frowned and replied: "I didn't realize it when I was drunk, but now I know that Liang people have weapons." Everyone present laughed, and the tense atmosphere surrounding Xu Rong's formation had dissipated.

Sun Jian arranged for a few people to look after Huang Gai and looked back at the battlefield: After Xu Rong was repulsed, he fell into a fight with Guan Yu and suffered heavy losses. The Liang people saw this, and their morale and will to fight were also frustrated. Originally, Han Dang and Zhu Zhi had come to a standstill, but now they began to move forward slowly.

This was a very good sign, but when Sun Jian looked at the sky again, the sun was getting colder and the sky was gradually becoming twilight. They had actually fought from dawn to dusk! The fatigue between the two armies was evident, and the fighting between many people had slowed down a lot. At that time, Chang Shigong Qiu Cheng asked him: "In the Ming Dynasty, the soldiers are so tired. I wonder if we should try to pay the money and stop the troops today?"

Sun Jian flatly refused and said: "The soldiers of the two armies are indeed tired, but my headquarters has not fought yet today!" He drew his sword and pointed at Dong Zhuo's command tower on Kongtong Mountain, and said: "The same is true for Dong Zhuo's own formation! How can I make a truce! "

Riding his horse around, Sun Jian said in front of the knights in the formation: "The victory of a great battle depends on which side is more willing to risk one's life and fight. Just now, Huang Jun defeated the Liang people. That's it. I know you guys want to rest early, But now is the best time to decide the outcome, so please follow me and fight to the death!"

At this point, he used the tip of his knife to point the rebellion flag at dusk, and said loudly: "Follow me to charge to Kongtong, leader Dong Zhuo!"

All the knights in this formation were shocked by the commander's idea, but what followed was an uncontrollable pride. They all responded loudly: "Be loyal to your country! How dare you disobey your orders!"

He gave an order, and all the remaining knights mounted their horses and charged forward with shouts of death. Sun Jian, as the commander-in-chief, charged at the forefront of the knights, passing through Sun Bi, Han Dang, and Zhu Zhi all the way, and launched a chisel on the last mile to Dong Zhuo. hit.

On the way to the charge, Sun Jian also waved his horsewhip to hit his subordinates who were getting tired and wanted to be lazy, and reprimanded: "You can't handle such an enemy, are you cowardly? If you don't have the consciousness to die in battle, you will definitely die on the battlefield!" Do you expect the other party to be as relaxed as you are?"

When these soldiers were beaten by him, they felt ashamed and angry, but their courage became a hundred times stronger and they moved forward.

With the concerted efforts of the whole army, Sun Jian became more and more courageous as he fought. Lu Bu in front of him could not support himself, and finally he tore a large hole in his face. Sun Jian took the opportunity to sprint forward, and rushed half a mile in one breath. And half a mile away, Dong Zhuo's cape on the top of Kongtong Mountain was almost clearly visible!
