Chapter 317: Exile(1/2)

Thousands of troops and horses, people howling and horses neighing, the most miserable place in the world is right here.

Lu Zhi was among thousands of troops, and he miraculously noticed the scene of scholar Sun Meng amidst the commotion.

When the soldier Sun Meng was hung on the rebel army's flag, Lu Zhi was stunned. Looking at the head tilted, he knew that this general had probably died for his country.

Seeing this scene, Lu Zhi squeezed his riding crop until the joints turned white. He was filled with rage, but he couldn't do anything.

Now that the battle has begun, all the military forces in his hands have been suppressed. At this time, Lu Zhi can only obey the fate and see what happens to his generals.



To the northwest of the battlefield, on the original position of Xu He's Ministry, Wei Duan, the infantry colonel of the Northern Army of the Han Army, sat tiredly on an abandoned carriage.

He untied his pocket and steamed out steam, like mist in this winter day.

It stands to reason that he would not be able to take down the bag now, otherwise if the cold wind enters, he will probably become seriously ill after the war. But at this time, Wei Duan is no longer worried about his death, but is he still worried about whether he will become seriously ill later?

The cold wind blew on his face, and Wei Duan felt much better. He turned to ask a guard next to him:

"Is there any honey water left? Take a sip."

The guard is a young boy from the northwest. What does it mean when he hears his general ask this question:

"Captain, there is no honey water, but there is a lot of blood water."

Wei Duan felt cold, felt the biting cold wind, and cursed back:

"Blood water, blood water, is it blood or water? Is it drinkable?"

After saying that, he ignored the idiot and looked to the opposite side.

There, the 800 troops he had just called to charge had been completely wiped out.

Wei Duan was very sad. It was not that he felt that the destruction of the Tunqi had anything to do with him. After all, he only asked them to come for reinforcements and did not ask them to charge.

Wei Duan was sad because he felt that a well-known camp of the Han family, whose history could be traced back to previous generations, had disappeared like this.

Because he had seen that the flag and scepter representing the Tunqi camp had been captured by the opposite party.

Look at the head of our own camp again. Before they went into battle, the two thousand armored soldiers looked majestic. Looking at the past? Looking at the past, people were hiding behind the carriages and behind the walls, fearfully avoiding possible arrows.

In the previous two attacks, the infantry battalion suffered heavy casualties. Only Wei Duan himself saw that two of his own generals were killed in the battle, and three or five middle- and senior-level military officials were seriously injured.

Moreover, the Northern Army was indeed the most loyal and brave army of the Han Dynasty, and the middle and lower-level military officials all showed their determination to die. Many of them were still motivating the soldiers and cheering for their sons before they died in battle.

On this small battlefield, all units of the infantry battalion suffered varying degrees of damage, and in a short period of time they lost the ability to continue to collide with the Jinan Yellow Turban formation on the opposite side.

But on the battlefield, the Han army's attack continued.

After the Han army's attack on the northwest side of the battlefield was blocked, the Han army's attack on the southwest side achieved very dazzling results.

The biggest contribution here is the thousands of crossbowmen from the Shesheng Battalion.

In the previous battle, they had fired eleven rounds and were about to continue resting. However, the chief officer on the front line was Shen Qi, the chief general of Wei Junbing.

Shen Qi is Shen Pei's biological brother and the commander of the army in Wei County, so when Shen Qi asked the fifth commander of the Shengying camp to fire another round, the fifth commander agreed despite being embarrassed.

After all, Shenqi's younger brother Shenpei is a close aide in the Marshal's shogunate, and he will help whenever he can.

So, under the supervision of the Fifth Commander, the Thousand Archers pressed their swollen and red arms and fired another round of arrows at Jinan Yellow Turban's left formation.

In fact, both Shenqi and Wujun made serious mistakes.

As the most strategic branch of the Han army, archers need permission from their commander for each round of shooting.

It can be said that Lu Zhi needs to know the firing status of the archer at any time so that he can calculate and schedule the timing of each round of archery.

Does Shen Qi know? Yes, but he really has no other way.

When the clarion call for the decisive battle came from the Chinese army, he was commanding his men to attack the last two thousand-man formations of the traitor general Zhang Rao.

I thought that more than 6,000 people had been defeated before, but wouldn't the last 2,000 people be captured?

But reality soon swollen his face.

After leaving behind the corpses of more than 400 Wei Jun disciples and looking at the still resolute formation on the opposite side, Shen Qi had no choice but to give up, leaving these two formations to Zhao Guobing behind.

But when he was about to attack the left formation of the Jinan Yellow Turbans, Shen Qi keenly discovered the archers lurking on the opposite side. If he just rushed over like this, he would definitely suffer heavy casualties.

But now, Wei Jun's soldiers had long been dispersed, and Shenqi could not gather enough players, so he had no choice but to ask for help from the Archers.

Soon, the fifth handsome voice shooter arrived.

Shenqi and the others had already cleared a position for these people to set up for the sound shooters.

So, a thousand strong men with long arms sat on the ground, fired the big yellow crossbow with their feet, and then faced the Jinan Yellow Turban in front of them like a storm.

This wave of arrow rain directly covered the formation of Jinan Yellow Turban archers in the front line, and their corpses were strewn with direct fire, leaving them unable to fight back.

Because their range is simply not as good as the big yellow crossbow.

After a while, the 800 shooters of the Jinan Yellow Turban Left Formation could not hold on anymore and retreated to the back of the formation in the vacated passage behind.

When Shen Qi saw this, he exclaimed that the archer was indeed extraordinary.

Then he blew the charge horn and took the lead in charging with a garrison of a hundred or ten people.

At this time, on the battlefield in the southwest, many remnants of the original Yellow Turban Army from Pingyuan County remained on the battlefield to resist.

Many Weijun soldiers were fighting with these small groups of thieves. Now that they heard the general's unique charge signal, they could only deploy half of their troops and begin to charge with the Chinese army.

But after all, the formation was already in disarray. When they charged, all the troops gathered together.

Many generals brought soldiers who were not from their own squads. They were all mixed together and charged towards the left formation of the Jinan Yellow Turbans.

The head of the canal of the Jinan Yellow Turban Left Formation is called Jiyu, and he is the younger brother of Jisun.

After the archers in the front line were defeated by the fierce crossbows of the Han army, Jiyu saw that the front line was a little unstable, and then he saw three generals in the front line rush out of the formation without saying a word.

When Tian Zhen, the deputy general next to Ji Yu, saw this, he shouted that it was not good and hurriedly urged the Chinese army's sharpshooters to snipe and kill the three generals.

But Tian Zhen's order was stopped by Ji Yu, who asked in confusion:

"I have always known these three people to be my old Yellow Turbans. They will not surrender to the enemy. You are going to shoot them without saying a word. How can you be so kind as a brother?"

Tian Zhen's order was blocked, and when he heard the commander's childish words, he stamped his feet anxiously.

He grabbed Jiyu's sleeve and said:

"Xiao Ji Qushuai, what are you waiting for? No matter what the opponent's intention is, he will rush to the enemy's formation without saying a word, killing any mistakes without missing a beat. Otherwise, it will be too late to regret it if the enemy surrenders to the enemy."

In the army, because Jiyu was Jisun's clan brother, he was also called Xiao Jiqushuai.

After hearing Tian Zhen's words, Xiao Ji was not moved at all. He stubbornly said:

"Punish without teaching, kill without guilt, these are things I cannot do."

Tian Zhen was so angry that she blurted out:

"Hot girl, are you stupid from reading the Bible? What kind of benevolence are you telling me now? If you want to die, don't drag your brothers with you!"

After Tian Zhen said this, she regretted it, not because she scolded Jiyu, but because of Jiyu's temperament, she would definitely fall out when she heard that he was a nerd.

The term "nerd" refers to Jiyu's side of the body that cannot be touched by others, and will explode at the slightest touch.

As expected, after hearing this, Jiyu's face immediately changed and he replied coldly:

"Old Tian, ​​do you mean that you are greedy for life and afraid of death? I think it's not the three generals who want to surrender to the enemy, but you."

After saying that, Jiyu was about to give the order to the strongman to tie Tian Zhen up.

But at this time, something unexpected happened.

The three Yellow Turban generals from Ji Yu's side who fled earlier were not all defections as Tian Zhen thought.

Instead, two generals defected and one general pursued him.

The two generals who defected were Qin Gang, the commander of the front line, and Luo Gong, his deputy.

Because these two people were too desperate for the Yellow Turban Army, they had long thought of defecting to the other side. Especially when they learned that the former general of Taiping Road, Wei Shou, had surrendered to the Han army and had become a high-ranking official, Houjue, they were even more tempted.

Hence, this scene of running away before the battle.

The person chasing these two generals was none other than Wei Tong, the leader of the front line and one of the five generals of Jinan Yellow Turban.

When Wei Tong saw his two generals running away without any reason, he wanted to draw his bow and shoot them to death. However, he cared about the brotherhood, so he mounted his horse and went to persuade the two men.

He rode behind and shouted:

"Qin Gang, Luo Gong, what are you two doing?"

But Qin Gang and Luo Gong turned a deaf ear and just ran towards the Han army.

On the opposite side, the Han army in Weijun, led by their chief general Shen Qi, was charging in twos and threes. Suddenly they saw three thieves running towards the opposite side. They were frightened, thinking that they had encountered a hero who could equal a thousand men on horseback.

But who would have thought that when the two cavalrymen at the head saw that the Han army was about to raise their bows and arrows, they hurriedly shouted:

"Be merciful, we are righteous soldiers in front of the battle anyway. If you have any important military information, please report it to your coach."

As soon as he said this, Wei Tong, who was behind the two men, did not hesitate anymore. He drew the bow and arrow in his hand and aimed an arrow at Qin Gang, who was in the front.

Qin Gang turned over and fell off his horse, but Luo Gong beside him shot an arrow, hitting Wei Tong's neck.

Wei Tong's eyes were blood red, he glanced at the sky, and fell to the ground unwillingly.
