But this is always a relatively possible way to survive.
Unfortunately, so many people died in the past few days that the middle-level generals had no intention of fighting. At this time, when Cai Mao died, they naturally began to collapse and flee for their lives.
They started to escape, so what was the point of the siege and killing of Lu Bu ahead?
So when the cavalry troops who were fighting fiercely saw that the Chinese army was in chaos, they wanted to leave the battlefield and leave.
Then the city gate of Guangchengguan opened again.
This time it was Huo Zhi and his cavalry who came out.
There are not many cavalry troops under Huo Zhi's command, and the quality of individual soldiers is even less than that of Qin Feng.
However, it is perfect for chasing fleeing enemies.
Like a whirlwind, the same 30,000 cavalry troops rushed out and headed straight for the enemy.
The mortar fire on the city wall has stopped.
It's not that Lin Zhuang didn't want to kill all the opponents with artillery at once, but the production process and time of mortar shells are not a bit more difficult than ordinary artillery shells.
So he must save.
As long as Cai Mao is gone, the remaining tens of thousands of people will probably fall into the trap of bandits or scatter in all directions. They should not be able to cause any big trouble.
Being chased by Huo Zhi's cavalry, it was unlikely that those cavalry would try to escape. Finally, this result was within the scope of his acceptance.
"What a pity." Lin Biao said.
The former guard glanced at Lin Biao as if he were looking at a god.
Suddenly Lin Biao frowned, raised his eyes and looked away.
The guard was startled, thinking something unexpected had happened, and looked up as well.
On the distant horizon, a large cloud of smoke suddenly appeared.
"Enemy troops?" the guard commander asked tentatively.
Lin Zhu thought for a moment, then a smile appeared on his lips and he said softly: "An Xin, one of our own."
At the forefront of the smoke and dust, Qi Zhen and Lin Xu were riding side by side, galloping on their horses.
"Kill them all." Lin Xu licked his dry lips.
"Here!"
…
The fleeing infantrymen felt completely cold when they saw the enemy troops appearing behind them at some unknown time.
They didn't even have time to notice the fatigue in each other's eyes, and the military appearance that wasn't exactly neat.
They didn't even have time to observe the number of these enemies.
These people were completely scared out of their wits. Now, apart from the thought of escaping, there was only panic in their hearts.
The appearance of Lin Xu and Qi Zhen was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, completely making these defeated soldiers lose all will to fight.
Under attack from both front and back, the only thing waiting for them was to be surrounded and annihilated.
This encirclement and annihilation battle lasted for three hours.
In the end, there may still be sporadic enemies fleeing. Except for the captured enemies who voluntarily surrendered, not even a single organized remnant of the originally majestic and arrogant Jingzhou Army was left, and they were all killed.
This is mainly because Huo Zhi, a hot-tempered coach, is too desperate when fighting.
Huo Zhi usually looks silly, but in fact he is the most violent among the four generals of Feng Linhuo in terms of temper and fighting style.
After helping Lu Bu relieve the siege, he led his cavalry to continue chasing the enemy's infantry. Most of the enemy's lives were wiped out by this 30,000-person cavalry army.
After this battle, Cai Mao was dead, Jingzhou was completely leaderless, and there was no more war in the south. This laid the foundation for Luoyang to seize the world in one fell swoop.
It is known in history that Guangcheng Pass was a great victory.
"Here we come." Lin Biao said softly with no expression on his face as he looked at the battlefield of mountains of corpses and seas of fire.
"Here we come." Qi Zhen nodded behind him, completely confused as to how Lin Biao could remain so calm under such circumstances.
"Thank you for your hard work." Lin Biao continued.
"Since you have come to Cai Mao a long time ago, you are going to the arsenal in Yizhou. You have expected this day. It's okay for me to work hard, but Lin Xu really didn't put much thought into it. You know, fifty thousand versus ten Wan, even if the two of us are plotting one after another, it is not an easy task to defeat the other party without letting the information leak out." Qi Zhen smiled bitterly.
"Lin Xu is the smartest among the four generals of Feng Lin Huoshan. As a Confucian general, he has the ability to lead. Don't underestimate him." Lin Biao said.
"I'm really impressed." Qi Zhen nodded, "But I don't quite understand. If taken individually, the four generals of Fenglinhuoshuo can be regarded as top-notch figures. Why have we never heard of them in the story of the Three Kingdoms? name?"
"This is the general trend. You have to know that sometimes only by following the right person can a person's abilities be highlighted. This is especially true for the Three Kingdoms period when thousands of flowers were blooming. There were many amazing and talented people. If it weren't for the nobles who brought them, , destined to live a mediocre life." Lin Biao replied.
"You can come out of Luoyang. I think you really care about the outcome of this war. Why, Wang Yun is dead?" Qi Zhen did not expand on this topic, but turned to ask another question.
Lin Biao nodded and continued: "After this battle, we don't need to worry too much about the rest."
"I still don't understand where I lost." Qi Zhen smiled bitterly and shook her head.
Qi Zhen was referring to the fact that he had been trying his best to mediate among the various princes, hoping to get a good result that everyone would be happy with, but in the end he discovered that he had not changed anything and had always thought that he was the one playing chess. , but unconsciously became a pawn in the hands of others.
As for Lin Biao, after leaving Yizhou, Lin Biao had disappeared. When he came out of the mountain again, he also had guns and cannons. Not only did he capture Luoyang neatly, but each of the four armies was accompanied by squad members, almost. Watching Lin Zhuo seize the world's momentum.
If the journey between Chu Shan and Liang Sicheng was an open and honest conspiracy, then the journey between Qi Zhen and Lin Xu was completely a conspiracy with thousands of miles of hidden connections. What kind of brain is Lin Biao's brain that can predict so far in advance? matter.
You must know that at that time, whether it was Yanzhou, Jizhou, Xuzhou or Qingzhou, the situation was unclear. If Qi Zhen followed Qi Zhen's thinking, he would probably personally lead the army to occupy Yuzhou steadily, and then plan it slowly. It would just take more time, in the end Not as adventurous as it is now.
Facts have proved that whether Yizhou has been empty for a long time or Yuzhou and Yanzhou later let things go, instead of making things worse, they all fell into Lin Biao's calculations. Qi Zhen did not believe that the system would be so kind. , deliberately designing this plot to suit him.
In hindsight, although Qi Zhen had always been suspicious of Wang Yun's position, she could not imagine that his death could be so well controlled.
Qi Zhen had some doubts in her heart, but he had been far away in Yizhou and didn't know much about what happened in Luoyang, so he could only keep this matter in his heart for now.
"Who knows." Lin Biao had no intention of telling Qi Zhen, so he only said these four words, which made Qi Zhen choke behind him.
"What are you going to do next?"
Qi Zhen knew that if Lin Biao made up his mind not to say anything, it would be difficult for her to ask anything from him, so she had no choice but to change the question.
"Lin Xu is going to Jingzhou. After sorting out the affairs in Jingzhou, he will go to Yangzhou to beat up Chen Wen." Lin Xu said unhurriedly.
"Oh, what about the two of us?" Qi Zhen asked.
"Go back to Luoyang first and wait for news from the north." Lin Biao replied.
"You won't let Chu Shan take the army that just captured Bingzhou to Youzhou, will you?" Qi Zhen asked doubtfully.
Lin Biao shook his head: "That is not something Chu Shan can handle by himself. According to the game, since Liu Bei has proclaimed himself emperor in Youzhou, it is equivalent to the BOSS becoming violent. An NPC like Chu Shan cannot handle it. "
This time, Lin Zhuang did not lie any more and continued: "I asked Liang Sicheng and Zhaka to go to Youzhou. I think the news will come back soon."
Hearing Zaka's name, Qi Zhen's heart skipped a beat: "Are you really not afraid that Zaka will destroy the world accidentally?"
Lin Biao smiled and did not answer.
Qi Zhen was choked again.
Qi Zhen took a step forward, stood side by side with Lin Biao, and said softly: "How about I make you the captain?"
Qi Zhen saw him shaking his head slightly from the corner of his eye.
"The money is all yours," he added.
Lin Biao still didn't speak.
The setting sun shines on this battlefield full of blood and fire, like an oil painting with oversaturated colors. It looks so thrilling but full of an evil beauty.
The breeze with the smell of blood blew onto their faces, which was a bit pungent.
There were only two of them on the city wall at this time, and no one else was qualified to stand side by side with them.
…
Youzhou is plagued by plague again.
This is the third time that the plague has appeared in this world.
The first plague occurred in Luoyang City. That plague directly led to chaos in Luoyang City, and Dong Zhuo died tragically as a result.
The second appearance occurred in the eastward marching Bingzhou Army, which directly led to the complete defeat of the Bingzhou Army and the return of Bingzhou to the emperor's jurisdiction.
Some people say that this third plague came from the Bingzhou Army, while others say it was caused by the numerous casualties caused by years of war.
More people are still superstitious and believe that the plague is retribution from God. The first time was for Dong Zhuo's control of the court, the second time was for Zhao Yun's ingratitude, and this third time, no one dared to say it, but when it comes to it, everyone will Looking at the most magnificent building complex in Youzhou City, which was the original residence of the governor of Youzhou and now the palace of "His Majesty".
Obviously, this plague is more ferocious than the previous two, probably because this incident is far more shocking than the previous two.
To put it lightly, it means rising up, but to put it harshly, it means seeking to usurp the throne!
Ordinary people don't say anything, but it's hard to say whether they have any resentment in their hearts.
