Chapter 30 Reinforcement
Cheng Yuanzhi personally stood under the city, raised the commanding flag, and urged the soldiers to attack the city.
Tens of thousands of Yellow Turban troops launched fierce attacks from all sides at the same time. Although their formation was very chaotic, the scene was very terrifying. The roaring sound of tens of thousands of people was like howls from a group of wild beasts, which shook the sky and shook people's hearts; the entire battlefield was dusty, and the figures surged, and from a distance, it made people feel a heavy pressure.
The war drums in the Yellow Turban Army were radiating, and ladders rushed to the top of the city with arrows.
The Han army guarding the city threw stones down desperately, and one after another, the Yellow Turban soldiers were smashed to death and fell down with blood. Sometimes there was a cracking sound, which was the sound of the cloud ladders that climbed the city to be broken.
But there were too many Yellow Turban Army. Not long after, Yellow Turban soldiers broke through and intercepted and climbed to the top of the city.
The Yellow Turban soldiers who had just climbed the city suffered heavy losses due to the counterattack of the superior Han army, but as more and more Yellow Turban soldiers who climbed the city, the Han army gradually became difficult to suppress.
Then the melee at the top of the four gates began. From a distance, only the figures on the top of the city were shaking and the swords were shining, and various shouts resounded throughout the sky.
Guan Yu held the Qinglong Yanyue Sword in his hand and guarded the front city. The big sword was danced like a horse. All the Yellow Turban soldiers who were close to him were cut off with one knife.
After a while, Guan Yu was surrounded by the bodies of the Yellow Turban soldiers. The Yellow Turban soldiers finally felt scared. Facing this big red-faced man with long beards, everyone did not dare to step forward.
However, a person's power is limited after all. Although Guan Yu is extremely brave, he cannot change the situation. As time goes by, except for the southern city walls, Guan Yu is still holding on because Guan Yu is still holding the sky, the other three city walls have fallen one after another. All the remaining Han troops retreated from these three city walls all moved closer to the place where Guan Yu is.
In the continuous offensive of the Yellow Turban Army like a tide, the number of Han soldiers killed a sharp increase, and the controlled area was quickly compressed.
Seeing his comrades tragically die under the swords of the Yellow Turban Army, Guan Yu was furious. He roared angrily and waved the sword desperately. The Yellow Turban soldiers around him felt as if they were in a storm. As the sword wind passed, the Yellow Turban soldiers fell down one by one.
…………
Guan Yu was on the ground with a knife on his back. Looking at the Yellow Turban Army that was surrounding him, and looking at the more than 200 exhausted comrades beside him, he couldn't help but sigh. Now that things have come to this point, Guan Yu's defeat and death seem to be a foregone conclusion.
Guan Yu was not afraid of death. On the contrary, for the sake of justice, he could die generously, but he was unwilling to give up. He was eager to use his sword to bring the people a peaceful and prosperous era and spread the reputation of the Han Dynasty all over the world.
Guan Yu glanced at the Yellow Turban Army in front of him with an extremely proud look. In his eyes, the guys in front of him with dirty expressions and yellow Turbans were not qualified to kill him at all. If Guan Yu was destined to die here today, Guan Yu would rather commit suicide.
Guan Yu let go of the Qinglong Yanyue Sword in his hand tightly, slowly pulled out his sword, and then suddenly put it on his neck. He looked as if he was about to commit suicide.
No one stopped him from his companions around him. They knelt down together, their faces full of tragic spirits.
The Yellow Turban soldiers around him were captured by Guan Yu's momentum, and no one dared to step forward, but just watched from a distance.
At this critical moment, a Han soldier suddenly shouted: "Look! The rebel's back camp caught fire!"
Everyone looked out of the city at the same time. They saw the flames Zhang Tian, and even though they were far apart, they could feel the heat there.
Guan Yu's eyes lit up and he secretly said: Could it be that the reinforcements of the prefect have finally arrived? Thinking of this, Guan Yu became excited and did not want to commit suicide. He held the Qinglong Yanyue Sword again and shouted: "Brothers, the reinforcements have arrived! Let's kill the thief army to the top of the city! Kill!"
As he roared, Guan Yu rushed into the enemy group first.
Hundreds of Han soldiers beside Guan Yu also shouted, and then followed Guan Yu and rushed towards the enemy. Seeing the hope of life, the Han army rekindled its fighting spirit. In order to survive, every soldier fought desperately.
On the Yellow Turban Army, when they found that the main camp was in full swing, the morale of the army suddenly became in chaos. They didn't know how many reinforcements were from the Han army, and they subconsciously felt that they had to leave this place quickly if they wanted to survive.
This is the case with the Yellow Turban Army. It is okay to bully the few with the crowd when fighting in the wind. Once there is an accident, the morale of the army will be in chaos.
Because the morale of the Yellow Turban Army was in chaos, although the troops were far stronger than Guan Yu, they were defeated by Guan Yu. The Yellow Turban Army had no intention of fighting and quickly retreated from the city.
However, what the Yellow Turban soldiers didn't know was that their arrival at the city was the beginning of their nightmare.
Just as the Yellow Turban Army retreated from the city, countless cavalry suddenly appeared behind the Yellow Turban Army's central army.
The cavalry team stood up with red Chinese characters on the head, sweeping towards the unexpected Yellow Turban Army with murderous intent. The three generals at the forefront were extremely majestic and terrifying.
Seeing this scene, Cheng Yuanzhi was shocked and hurriedly ordered his army and his rear army to fight.
But the Yellow Turban soldiers were all pale in their faces and panicked in their expressions. Can they resist the sudden appearance of cavalry rushing?
The Yellow Turban Army, at a loss, faced the challenge in a hurry, but their loose formation could not effectively curb the impact of the cavalry group.
In front of the rushing iron hooves, the yellow turban soldiers with simple equipment and low morale are like seedlings under a sickle, leaving no grass wherever the blade passes.
In just a moment, the rear army of the Yellow Turban Army, which was fighting with the Han cavalry, completely collapsed. Cheng Yuanzhi, who was in the central army, was shocked and quickly sent out more than a dozen healthy generals around him, leading 10,000 central troops and 500 cavalry to attack.
Then a scene that shocked Cheng Yuanzhi even more appeared. His dozens of strong generals were attacked by the opponent's three generals, and they rolled down one by one in just a few rounds. The strength of the opponent's three generals shocked Cheng Yuanzhi inexplicably. Especially one of them was wearing a three-part purple gold crown, wearing a Tang Dynasty armor, and holding a Fang Tian Painting Ridge. Half of the dozen strong generals of Cheng Yuanzhi died in his hands.
Although the Yellow Turban Army was shocked by the strength of the Han cavalry, they relied on their large number to fight against the Han army. The Han cavalry gradually exhausted the impact of the war horses in the heavy storm and finally got involved with the Yellow Turban Army. In this case, the advantage of the cavalry was greatly weakened.
However, under the leadership of three generals with extraordinary force, the Yellow Turban Army had the advantage of numericality, but they still retreated step by step. The Yellow Turban soldiers gradually lost confidence, and many began to turn around and escape.
Seeing that Cheng Yuanzhi's central army was about to be defeated, at this moment, tens of thousands of Yellow Turban troops retreated from the siege came to support him.
The addition of these tens of thousands of Yellow Turban Army made the Han army who were fighting suddenly feel pressure. Just like two opponents of wrestling, the Yellow Turban Army began to gradually reverse its decline.
At the rear of the battlefield, there were still a thousand Han cavalry who had not joined the battle group. One of them stepped on a yellow horse, wrapped in iron armor, and had a handsome face. He was staring at the battlefield with a serious expression. This person was no one else, but Chen Chu, the magistrate of Leping County.
The situation on the battlefield made Chen Chu worried. After all, the difference in military strength was too great. Chen Chu's nearly 4,000 cavalry gained considerable advantages at the beginning, but after the opponent's troops gathered, not only did the advantage they had previously gained were gone, but there was also a vague risk of being surrounded.
What should I do? Chen Chu felt a little at a loss when facing the war for the first time.
Just as Chen Chu was advancing and retreating, the situation on the battlefield changed again. Five thousand troops appeared on each of the wings of the Yellow Turban Army, and they quickly surrounded the back. If measures were not taken as soon as possible, Zhang Liao, Zhang Fei, Lu Bu and thousands of Han troops were very likely to be completely surrounded. If by then, thousands of Han troops were very likely to be wiped out. Although Zhang Liao, Zhang Fei and Lu Bu were powerful, it was difficult to guarantee that they would not make any mistakes in the chaos.
Seeing that Zhang Liao and the others were about to fall into a siege, Chen Chu only felt a fever in his mind.
Mom’s! At worst, it’s just a death! I watched the brothers fight bloodyly, but I couldn’t move forward! Is it still a man?
Chen Chu suddenly pulled out the knife around his waist, and then shouted to the thousand cavalry behind him: "Are you afraid?"
The soldiers were nervous, but their eyes were more of an impulse. "Don't be afraid!", and a thousand people shouted in unison.
"Our comrades are fighting bloody! We can't watch it! Follow me and rush down! Defeat the enemy completely! Kill!" Finally, Chen Chu roared and rushed to the battlefield first. Following him closely were a thousand iron cavalry.
Zhang Liao, Zhang Fei and Lu Bu, who were fighting on the field, felt the pressure was getting heavier and heavier. The three of them had noticed the actions of the Yellow Turban Army surrounding the back road. Although they felt that it was not good, they could do nothing. The three of them were all powerful, and wherever they passed, they were full of corpses. However, on this battlefield, no matter how powerful they were, their role was still limited.
Facing the endless Yellow Turban Army, Zhang Fei and Lu Bu seemed very irritable. Zhang Liao was about to calm down. Zhang Liao slashed the two Yellow Turban soldiers approaching with one sword, and then shouted to Lu Bu and Zhang Fei: "Second brother, Fengxian, let's break forward with all our might. As long as we kill the thief Cheng Yuanzhi, the thief soldiers will collapse!"
Zhang Fei and Lu Bu responded, so the three of them led their troops forward with great force.
The Yellow Turban Army did not expect that the Han army would not retreat but advance, and was immediately killed and overturned.
Cheng Yuanzhi, who was in the central army, was shocked when he saw this scene and quickly asked the people around him to come over to block the attack of the Han army in front, and at the same time he slowly retreated to ensure safety.
The actions of the Han army disrupted the deployment of the Yellow Turban Army, and the entire Yellow Turban Army became a little messed up.
Speaking of which, Chen Chu was really lucky. Just when the Yellow Turban Army was disturbed by the army led by Zhang Liao and the other two, Chen Chu happened to lead a thousand cavalry into the battlefield.
The Yellow Turban Army never expected that there would be another cavalry. When Chen Chu led a thousand iron cavalry to rush over, the entire Yellow Turban Army suddenly became in chaos.
Chen Chu rushed to the front with a ring-headed sword. He was both nervous and excited at this time. This was his first time to go to the battlefield with real swords and guns!
Chen Chu was very strong. Although he didn't know how to cut the sword, his opponent could not stop him with just one knife. Chen Chu could not dodge the weapons he greeted him, but fortunately, the armor he was wearing was very strong, so he was not injured.
In the eyes of others, Chen Chu was like attacking wildly regardless of his opponent's weapons, and the scene was quite terrifying.
