The next day, after a bloody battle, Li Xiang finally led 20,000 Bingzhou cavalry to successfully fight out of Yecheng.
Zhang Jiao led hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans to attack so desperately not just for a city of Ye. It is even said that Yecheng is not important, Zhang Jiao's purpose is just to eliminate the main force of the Han Dynasty in Jizhou.
Therefore, Chi You naturally would not let the Han army in the city escape easily. There is naturally a reason why Li Xiang broke through so smoothly.
First of all, the Han army in Yecheng was still capable of fighting. Chi You never thought that Li Xiang would break out now.
Secondly, Li Xiang chose to break out at the east gate where the Yellow Turbans have the strongest power. Sometimes the strongest corner is also the weakest corner. People often relax their vigilance in the place where they are strongest.
In the end, Xue Rengui, Guan Zhang and other generals chose to fake a breakout at the west gate to attract the Yellow Turbans' attention, thereby luring Chi You over. For this reason, Xue Rengui and Zhang Fei even had another battle with Guan Yu and Chi You after the breakthrough last night.
In fact, during the last battle between Guan Yu and Chi You, the bottle shank had already loosened under Chi You's pressure. After the battle between several people, Guan Yu had an epiphany and finally broke through a little bit in basic force, reaching 103 points.
This time, Li Xiang led the cavalry out of the city and only brought General Xing Tian with him. As for Xue Rengui, he led the remaining 5,000 Bingzhou cavalry to stay in Yecheng.
When Lu Zhi asked Xue Rengui to stay and guard Yecheng, Li Xiang thought about it carefully and agreed. It's not that Li Xiang doesn't need Xue Rengui, but that Yecheng needs Xue Rengui's help more than Li Xiang.
Li Xiang was really afraid that Chi You would attack Ye City without Xue Rengui's help. At that time, the failure of the mission issued to Li Xiang by the system will be a trivial matter. If the situation becomes out of control, it will be a big trouble.
After all, although the Han Dynasty who lost the power of Yecheng still had eight passes in Luoyang to defend, he had no more troops to send. Today's big man has already used all the power he can muster, leaving only some newly recruited recruits. Although the man's heritage is far beyond what the Yellow Turbans suddenly emerged, it still takes time to transform his heritage into real strength.
As for Li Xiang, even without Xue Rengui and with a system in place, Li Xiang would not lack generals who could help him lead his troops. If not, just continue to summon one from the system. Even if you can't summon someone as strong as Xue Rengui, you can just summon a few more. If the quality is not enough, quantity will be used to make up for it.
In this battle, Li Xiang not only didn't bring Xue Rengui, he didn't even bring Wei Xiaokuan. On the one hand, they were worried that they would not be able to take care of Wei Xiaokuan when the army broke out. On the other hand, it was also to allow him and Xue Rengui to take care of each other. In other words, Li Xiang was on guard against Liu Bei and others to prevent him from having any thoughts that he shouldn't have after Li Xiang left.
Spreading out the map, Li Xiang took a long breath. This time he could only rely on himself for the time being.
The reason why Li Xiang did not summon him immediately was that on the one hand, the need was not urgent yet, and on the other hand, he naturally wanted to exercise his abilities. After all, he had never really led an army alone in a battle.
Today, in Wei County, which is close to Sili, the Han Dynasty and the Yellow Turbans are fighting a bloody battle centered on Yecheng. In other words, only a few major cities in Wei County are still in the hands of the Han Dynasty. As for the other counties in Jizhou, even if there is a Yellow Turban resistance force, it is only the remaining power of some powerful families and some Han government officials. I am afraid that most of these counties are dominated by the Yellow Turbans. If the main force of the Yellow Turbans were not still in Yecheng, those people would not be able to hold on now.
After thinking about it, Li Xiang decided to find a county town to replenish food and grass and protect himself first. Then he immediately went to find a way to meet Dong Zhuo.
Li Xiang is still very interested in this person who can cause great changes in the late Han Dynasty. On the other hand, Li Xiang also wanted to prevent Dong Zhuo from rushing into Ye City and being surrounded by Chi You. In today's situation, Dong Zhuo's power is still extremely important.
After carefully observing the map, Li Xiang quickly chose his target. Cheng'an is located in the center of Wei County and Zhangjiao's base camp, Julu County. Although it is not a strategic location for military strategists, it is still very convenient for transporting grain and grass. Moreover, the direction Li Xiang is heading now is exactly the direction of Cheng An. Li Xiang decided that after capturing Cheng'an, he would immediately turn back to the southwest and never give the Yellow Turbans a chance to react.
In the evening, the dusk has become blurry, and the sky filled with sunset gradually becomes dull and colorless.
At the foot of Cheng'an City, a group of yellow scarf soldiers were standing guard at the city gate, chatting casually with each other. No one believed that someone would attack here. In the eyes of these Yellow Turban soldiers, Jizhou now became their world.
Suddenly, there was a loud sound of the earth shaking and the mountains were shaking. Anyone with rich military experience would definitely understand that the one who could make such a noise must be the cavalry, and a large group of cavalry.
In less than a moment, countless knights in black clothes and armor appeared in front of the Yellow Turbans. The leader was wearing a dragon-tiger roaring sky armor, holding a Tyrannical Moon-breaking Sky Spear, and under his crotch was a Thousand-Li Liangqu, carrying an extraordinary figure of prowess. Following closely behind him was a huge man with a huge back and a bear-like waist holding a giant axe. His aura was intimidating. These two people were none other than Li Xiang and Xing Tian.
It was not until this moment that the scattered yellow turban soldiers on the city wall finally reacted.
"The enemy is attacking."
"The enemy is attacking."
The shocked yellow turban soldiers inside and outside the city gate immediately rushed forward to close the city gate. But the cavalry charge was coming in a blink of an eye, and how could the yellow turban soldiers, who reacted so slowly, have time to complete all of this.
"kill."
Li Xiang roared, holding a spear, and rushed straight into the city gate. With a swing of the spear, three gun flowers bloomed quietly, and the three yellow scarf soldiers fell into a pool of blood, clutching their throats.
Speaking of which, this is Li Xiang's first real battle. In addition, even when he entered Yecheng last time, Li Xiang only moved forward safely under the protection of the army, without any need for him to do it himself.
Compared to Li Xiang, Xing Tian behind him was even more violent. With a casual sweep of his axe, countless yellow scarf soldiers flew out.
With Li Xiang and Xing Tian taking the lead in the charge, the Yellow Turbans at the city gate were soon defeated, and Li Xiang completely invaded the city.
Although the Yellow Turbans seemed to have almost occupied Jizhou, the main force was under Yecheng. Therefore, there are only less than 10,000 Yellow Turbans in Cheng'an City. How can they be the opponent of 20,000 wolves and tigers in Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry. In less than half an hour, they were slaughtered by the Bingzhou Army. Even an unknown yellow turban Xiaoqushuai who was guarding this place was stabbed under his horse by Li Xiang before the battle with Li Xiang was even five, and he died on the spot.
