Late at night, the moonlight hangs high in the sky, the gentle breeze blows on the surface of the Yellow River, and the reflection trembles slightly. Huge black shadows flowed rapidly on the Yellow River, and the low voices above continued to spread.
On the water village behind the camp, countless soldiers were boarding the ship. On the other side of the camp gate, a group of soldiers were getting ready to go.
"coming!"
Xu Rong looked into the distance and felt the chilling atmosphere, his face was stern.
The sound was getting closer and louder, and under the weak moonlight, only a dark patch could be seen.
"Put it in and fight!"
Xu Rong quickly ordered.
Inside the gate of the camp, a trap has been prepared long ago, waiting for the opponent to arrive.
Xu Rong knew that it would be difficult for them to hide their withdrawal from Xuzhou's army, but fortunately their camp was built on the original water fortress.
They had commandeered all the ships around them and had been in this water stronghold. There were enough ships to retreat. As long as they blocked the Xuzhou soldiers for a while and waited until all their troops had withdrawn to the ships, they would be safe.
Xu Rong knew that once the coalition forces discovered that they were retreating, they would definitely come to pursue them. He stayed in order to stop them and give them a severe blow.
"Haha! Sure enough, Niu Fu wants to run away. Chase me and don't let them run away."
Feeling that the resistance of the camp wall was extremely weak, Zhang Yang's generals suddenly became excited.
This time, the lord sent him here again. This was a good opportunity to make meritorious deeds. He could not let the lord down, so he took the lead and rode his mount, as if he was the god of war, invincible.
Seeing how brave his general was, Zhang Yang's army naturally rushed forward with roars.
"Let me go!"
Seeing that it was almost done, Xu Rong smiled coldly.
Suddenly the rocket lit up and shot out in a whoosh. In an instant, the camp gate turned into a sea of fire.
"No! There's an ambush."
Countless haystacks turned into fiery snakes, illuminating the camp quite brightly.
"Let's fight out"
Seeing that the coalition forces seemed to be in chaos instantly, Xu Rong's face was filled with joy. The opportunity suddenly came, and he led his elite troops towards the chaotic Zhang Yang army.
Xu Rong only had 500 cavalry and 3,000 elite soldiers.
Zhang Yang's army has a total of 30,000 people, but it is not elite in itself. It may be possible to win a big victory. Once an accident occurs, as it is now, no one can calm the chaotic situation.
"Kill me hard!"
Five hundred cavalry and three thousand Xiliang infantry, led by Xu Rong, were surrounded by military spirit, angry and bloody, like bright lights in the dark night.
The god of death who transforms into hell, constantly harvesting the blood of his enemies.
"Run away!"
Finally, he couldn't bear it any longer, so he dropped his weapon and fled towards the rear or in other directions.
This escape was like a domino. Others saw the same and fled one after another. Zhang Yang's army collapsed in an instant.
"damn it!"
"Don't run away, stop right here"
Zhang Yang, who was at the rear, looked at his army and fled again. His face was livid, especially when there were other princes beside him.
He stepped forward on his horse, holding a spear, and kept killing the soldiers who escaped, roaring, but it was useless.
The morale of the army was shattered and it was of no use anymore. He killed a few people, but even hundreds of people could not gather the morale of the army.
At this time, Xu Rong's elite troops had already broken out of the camp and were heading towards Zhang Yang.
"How brave!"
After Zhang Yang saw the general, he became even more angry. He directly mounted his horse and rushed forward.
Both of them are generals who are refining Gang, but they are only at the first or second level of refining Gang. The collision of swords and guns, the impact of Gang Qi against Gang Qi.
"not good!"
The moment he saw Zhang Yang, Xu Rong felt something was wrong. He knew Zhang Yang, the prefect of Shangdang. He had fought with them before and was defeated by them several times.
He originally thought that the soldiers and horses from Xuzhou were going to attack the camp tonight. He could counterattack a little, kill them in a surprise attack, and then return to the camp and take the prepared boats to cross the river and return to Pingxian area to set up defenses.
However, what they encountered now was Zhang Yang's Shangdang troops. So where were the Xuzhou troops?
Soon he no longer had to guess, because he had already seen it. He saw a group of soldiers and horses quickly emerging from all around, rushing towards the three thousand Xiliang infantry behind him.
He was intercepted by Zhang Yang and was still powerless.
He already knew that he might have fallen into a trap.
It was a trick within a trick. He thought he had tricked the other party, but he didn't expect that he had fallen into the trick.
"This person is so cruel"
"Are those tens of thousands of soldiers and horses used as bait just for my three thousand soldiers and horses?"
Guessing in mind.
Zhang Yang on the other side saw Xuzhou soldiers and horses appear, his face suddenly changed several times, he was not a fool, he figured it out instantly.
He has become a bait.
Fire suddenly arose in his heart, but it soon evaporated. He was angry that the other party used him as bait to plot against him.
But all this was requested by him. He was originally planning to use his own troops, but he came up excitedly and even threatened the opponent.
I am really stupid.
And given the current situation, he also knew that even if he could collect back the tens of thousands of troops afterwards, it would be good to have one-third.
Still can't compare with those people.
This world is all about strength after all. He can't compare with those people, so how can he 'get justice'.
Thinking of this, his energy dissipated, he had no more ideas, and his attack weakened.
Seeing this, Xu Rong's eyes flashed with a stern expression. No matter what Zhang Yang thought, he knew that he had fallen into a trap.
There is no turning back. In this case, just pull one before you die.
So he immediately launched a terrifying offensive. He did not defend himself and would trade his life for his life.
This desperate fighting style naturally left Zhang Yang in a hurry. He and Xu Rong were equally powerful, but he lost his temper and did not want to fight to the death with his opponent, so he could only defend passively.
But after a few rounds, several wounds were torn on his body by the opponent's Qi.
"Prefect Zhang, if you don't like this, let's hand him over to the future."
At this moment, a gentle voice came from behind, which shocked Zhang Yang. Without turning around, he knew who the person was. He was a general under the command of the prefect of Donghai County.
Very strong.
At least at level 3 or above of refining Gang.
Although he was plotted by several princes in Xuzhou, in the current situation, he was at a disadvantage and it was impossible to show off his power.
What's more, his biggest enemy is Wang Kuang, not the people in Xuzhou. After all, these people are all based in Xuzhou.
He had been planning Hanoi, and he and Wang Kuang had many conflicts with each other. If it were not for the crusade against Dong Zhuo, they would inevitably have to go through several wars in the future.
Now that his soldiers and horses have suffered serious losses, his strength is already weaker than Wang Kuang's. If he wants to find a way to increase his strength, he will not be able to offend the people in Xuzhou.
