Chapter 177: Cause and Effect

Time goes back to one month ago.

In mid-August, although the time was approaching autumn, the temperature did not drop. The 30,000 infantry in Youzhou was the central army, and 5,000 cavalry on both wings were used to carry their troops to advance towards the border bridge. On the road, the villages and towns were not crowded. Gongsun Zan's troops had not yet arrived. People along the way who were known to be about to fight were fleeing to the surrounding cities. Yan Kang, as the pioneer, led the three thousand white horses to clear the obstacles one after another, and cleared the people and things that appeared on the road.

Most of the cities along the way were under martial law. Some directly opened the city gates and surrendered. The cavalry did not enter the city. They just patroled and continued to clean up south. Zhao Yun rushed from behind and saw a large number of people crying and leaving their hometown in a turbulent manner, frowned.

"General, our goal is Yecheng. We should not treat the people too harshly. At this time, the lord's army is approaching the Border Bridge. We should go east and not easily pull too far from our formation."

The figure who was giving orders to the commander, turned around and widened his eyes: "March and fight, I have been in the army for a long time, how can you teach me? Don't think that you can question me after you have been with the eldest son for a while. I have always been the one who led the white horse rider, so don't you think you can get involved!"

"General Yan... How do you say this? The general has never thought about it..." Zhao Yun raised his hand and his voice also raised: "When this war is at this time, how can you start a private dispute? How can the general be the eldest son?"

"Hmph... will you discuss it later?" On the other side, he waved his hand and turned around again to instruct the generals, but the young man behind him was leaked.

Zhao Yun gritted his teeth and clenched his fists and stared at the back of the opposite side, then suddenly let go, closed his eyes and sighed.

………

The sky gradually became dim, and then the night came late, time slowly flowed through the space, and a new dawn was about to come.

The sky is blue and dark.

Twenty miles south of the Jieqiao Bridge, leaves on the trees fell down, people stepped on them, and torches burned in the early morning. Figures stood proudly in the forest, carrying a strong crossbow, holding a large shield in hand, and a knife blade in the waist and hips. The wine jar was piled up not far away. Then dozens of people carried them up, filling the empty bowls in front of them, and splashing out again.

"This war is related to the survival of Jizhou. You are the 800 people carefully selected by me, Que Yi... Although we are in the army to eat food, we are just killing people." A strong figure with a bearded face and a bearded figure picked up the wine bowl: "...but I still feel sorry for you. In today's battle, I don't know how many of you can win..."

"Drinking Win"

The soldiers standing in the forest raised their arms and shouted in unison, then drank all the wine in the bowl with big mouthfuls, smashing them to the ground, smashing them to pieces.

"In this battle, I will destroy the White Horse and follower, and I will lose Gongsun Zan's courage to return the heroic spirit of my man in Jizhou. After this battle, let the world hear that I will become famous first!!!"

Under the light of torches, his mighty body drew his sword and roared, and turned around and said, "Kill"

The soldiers who were going to die walked out of the forest and wildly. Soon after, it was dawn and two armies met on the field.

...

Countless running horses stopped, and Yan Gang watched the infantryman in front of him, who was less than a thousand people, frowned: "Some people can stop me! Could it be that they lure troops?" Then, scouts were dispersed.

Not long after, the news came back that Yuan Shao's formation was still not close to the rear, and there were no signs of ambushing soldiers around. Yan Gang stretched his eyebrows and smiled: "I'm afraid it's the county soldiers who are overestimating their abilities in the nearby county."

Then he waved: "Break them down!"

After the words came, the earth began to shake. The horse's hooves tore the ground and roared, charging towards the eight hundred figures over there. When pulling the bow, in the opposite formation, a general named Tuo Yi waved a small flag, and the big shield stood on the ground with overlapping shields above. Thousands of arrows flew out densely and covered them. The air was filled with the sound of snapping, and the arrows bounced or stared at the shield.

"Don't panic, just calm down for a while," Kuo Yi shouted in the formation.

Then the cavalry charged forward like a torrent

In the formation, Kuo Yi stared at the distance, and the sound of horse hooves became closer and closer. In an instant, he shouted: "Click them over!" Space cracked above the large shield, rows of powerful crossbows poked out, and only a buzzing sound was heard, and the black shadow flew across in a straight line. At the running war horse, the cavalry waving the weapons leaned back with a bleeding line and fell off the horse.

"Come again!" The roar started again, and the soldiers who shot the crossbow arrow retreated. A new round of crossbow-holding soldiers stepped forward. Another buzzing sound of strings, and the galloping figures fell down on the ground and rolled down, leaving their lives. Zhao Yun waved a crossbow arrow and shouted angrily: "General, retreat, it's a powerful crossbow in Jizhou, and the brothers' armor cannot stop it."

Yan Gang had red eyes and roared, "How can they die in vain and continue to rush forward!"

Behind, the raging waves hit the reef.

Bang bang bang

The cavalry charged at high speed hit the shield, and the gun forest made a sound of blood and flesh bursting. The human body and the body of the war horse were squeezed and broken, and blood sprinkled into the sky. The shield under the impact made a sound of bursting. The shield-holding figure twisted his arm and tore his flesh open, revealing his broken bones.

The infantry behind kept pushing the comrades in front of him who were gritting teeth and shouting in pain, and the soil and stones under his feet were sliding. Kuo Yi drew out the iron sword and counted the time silently in his heart. The soldiers who were quiet in the middle all drew their swords in their hands as if they were preparing.

The first round of war horses was blocked, and the white horse Yi in the rear slowed down. Kuo Yi suddenly issued an order: "Raise the shield, kill him, and cover him with a strong crossbow."

Shields were lifted up one after another, and figures were quietly leaning down and running wildly, slashing from the shield and gun forest. The dense light of swords swung into the densely rested war horses. The broken legs were torn off. The cavalry on the horse's back clumsily swung their guns and was knocked down by the crossbow nails that shot.

The whole war suddenly turned over at this moment.

Yan Gang commanded the cavalry behind to make up, but lost the space for charge, and the real combat power of Baima Yi had no meaning at this time.

The cavalry and infantry fought each other, and the blade spread from under the war horse. Yan Gang's eyes were covered with blood, and he subconsciously shot and killed him. However, when he met the opponent's general, he was stabbed off the horse in one encounter.

Zhao Yun resisted the situation on the side for a while. Seeing Yan Gang dead in battle, he immediately made a sound of the horn of retreating across the board. He didn't know that it was that the rushing and retreating Baima Yi swept back from being chased, causing even greater chaos.

Gongsun Zan, who had just arrived at the Jieqiao Bridge, also faced a full-scale counterattack. The escaped Baima Yicong poured it into boiling oil like a cup of cold water, and suddenly exploded.

The defeat of the cavalry, which had always been invincible, suddenly dropped from its peak morale. Even though there were still more than 30,000 soldiers in the central army, it was fatal to have more and more troops, and the defeat caused some chaos.

Just as Yuan Shao's counselor proposed before, one is prosperous, two is declined, and three is exhausted. Gongsun Zan is currently on the word "decline". He fought several times and was counterattacked. Several times, the first-climbed soldiers who reached their peak almost reached the gate of the main camp. The entire army began to be in chaos and collapsed. He had to start retreating all the way, fighting while turning in. News of Jicheng being seized from Youzhou in the rear also made the original Youzhou soldiers confused and thoughtful.

At this time, it was because Gongsun Zan had been leading troops for many years.

Yi Jing.

"Husband... Why don't you rescue your eldest son who is far away in Shanggu County? His cavalry is all elite, and it should be easy to kill him!" Liu looked at the figure walking around in the room and begged: "Xu'er is also your blood. Now the soldiers are fierce and dangerous. You have the heart to be trapped here..."

"You know that he is my blood, so you should understand that sooner or later, you will sacrifice your life for the Gongsun family!" Gongsun Zan stopped and gritted his teeth: "My wolf is far away in Shanggu County. Although he has strong soldiers in his hands, he is still few. If he comes to Jizhou, he will be ambushed by Yuan Shao in the middle of the journey. My Gongsun Zan has been confused once and cannot commit it again again, and the Gongsun family cannot be completely broken here."

He paused: "I still have 20,000 people in my hands, so it's not that easy to be defeated. If you are a woman and a child, don't ask about this matter too much. If it weren't for Xu'er's sake, you would have beaten to death!"

"Okay..." Liu slowly retreated, pursed his lips tightly at the husband opposite him, tears fell, turned around and walked out of the room, looking at the skylight: "Since you feel so distressed... Let's go down together... Isn't it better for our family to reunite in the underworld..."

"Wouldn't it be better..."
