Chapter 10 After the Break(1/2)

If Cao Shuang is determined to fight, raises his arms and unites as one, the Shu army may not be able to gain benefits.

After all, the advantage in military strength lies here.

But Cao Shuang no longer had the courage to fight anymore, and just wanted to return to Guanzhong and Luoyang.

If the commander is like this, how can the soldiers sacrifice their lives?

Yang Zheng looked around and saw that the four to five hundred people who stayed behind were originally strong men captured by Cao Shuang. They had different organizational structures and different people's hearts.

The more than a thousand Shu army cavalry in the rear swept away fallen leaves like the autumn wind.

Screams were heard, and everyone had a look of fear on their faces.

"Array, array!" Linghu Sheng shouted loudly.

But the soldier looked at me and I looked at you, and suddenly he roared.

Yang Zheng thought he was risking his life, but unexpectedly they dropped their weapons and ran away...

Cao Shuang's tooth flag fell into the dust with a "bang", and the general's guard of honor was thrown everywhere.

Even Wang Xi, who fought with him in the bloody battle, ran away.

Yang Zheng stood stunned on the spot.

Zhao Deng also looked hesitant and evasive.

If people's hearts are like this, why fight?

Yang Zheng lamented in his heart, finally understanding what it meant to be defeated like a mountain.

In the blink of an eye, there were only fifty or sixty military guards left around them.

Yang Zheng didn't even feel like shouting anymore.

"Coward!" Linghu Sheng was angry and drew his sword to kill the defeated soldiers around him.

Yang Zheng stopped him. There was no point in killing people at this time, so it was better to save some energy.

Cao Shuang's front foot had only been walking for less than half an hour when his back foot collapsed.

Zhao Deng's expression flickered for a while, and finally he gritted his teeth and turned around to leave.

Yang Zheng couldn't help feeling disappointed.

In this troubled world, not everyone can come together.

"There's no point in dying, it's better to go north." Linghu Sheng finally gave up.

Yang Zheng felt a little sorry for Cao Shuang's entrustment, but the current situation was beyond hope.

"Let's go!" He didn't hesitate. He escaped from the disaster in front of him. At worst, he would take off his official skin and find a bandit in the mountains, free from restraints.

Everyone mixed in with the crowd and fled north together.

The Shu army's cavalry was extremely cunning and only charged and killed lone people on both wings, causing greater chaos and causing the Wei army to trample on each other.

And the biggest threat is our own people.

They were trapped in the chaos and clashed with each other.

Those who fall never get a chance to stand up again.

Screams rang in my ears.

At this moment, Linghu Sheng groaned and was knocked down by the flurry of people around him.

When he looked back, his figure had been submerged.

After these two days of fighting and supporting each other on the battlefield, the two have long since become brothers.

Without him, Yang Zheng would have died long ago due to Pang Hui's calculations.

"Zi Qian!" Yang Zheng separated from the crowd and turned back to look for Linghu Sheng.

There are so many people around, but where is there even a single person?

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" Yang Zheng couldn't help but feel anxious.

In the most critical moment, Linghu Sheng did not give up on him and fought side by side. How could Yang Zheng let him be trampled to death by the rebel army?

But there were just too many people.

The Shu cavalry on the periphery kept throwing arrows, causing greater chaos.

At the critical moment, Yang Zheng drew his sword in anger and shouted: "Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

Perhaps Yang Zheng's armor had an effect, but within ten feet, the flow of people suddenly stopped slightly.

But in the blink of an eye, a man who looked like a captain spat and continued to flee north.

In desperation, the anger that had been suppressed for these days suddenly surged from his heart, burning fiercely. Without thinking at all, Yang Zheng instinctively raised the sword and lowered it. The long sword roared violently, seeming to cut the surrounding air.

A ball of blood suddenly burst out from the captain's body.

He looked at the long wound on his chest in disbelief and slowly fell down.

And his blood splashed on Yang Zheng's face.

There was a moment of silence all around.

Everyone was forced out. Yang Zheng wiped the blood from his face and said, "Those who trample on each other are all the same!"

Probably the original owner was also a decisive person, and it had a subtle influence on him deep in his memory.

"General... General..." Linghu Sheng was supported by several brothers from the military guard camp. There was an arrow stuck in his chest, and his body was covered with traces of being trampled.

Seeing that he was still alive, the stone in Yang Zheng's heart slowly fell.

The Wuwei, Zhongjian, and Zhongba troops all recognized this black light armor and slowly moved closer to Yang Zheng.

The crowd suddenly became calmer and no longer so panicked.

Both the Chinese Army and the Yongliang Army were the best on the battlefield despite years of war.

"Everyone returns to his own formation, don't panic, defend in formation, and retreat slowly!" Yang Zheng stood with his sword in hand, recalling his days in the army, and the passion of a soldier gradually awakened in his body.

With the order, people around him seemed to have found a backbone.

Hundreds of people gathered around, forming small formations.

Chaos is contagious, and so is order.

People kept joining in, and in a blink of an eye, an array of two to three thousand people was formed.

A few lower-ranking officers maintained the array.

The Wei army has always had strict military discipline, especially since Sima Yi was the commander-in-chief of all Chinese and foreign military forces. Rewards and punishments must be trusted, and orders are given like a mountain.

However, Cao Shuang did not have Sima Yi's prestige. For several months, more than 100,000 people were suppressed by 30,000 Shu troops.

His incompetence caused the dignity of Lao Cao's family to be trampled to the ground.

This caused resentment in the military's morale, and Guanzhong was also wasted by it.

Yang Zheng's team naturally attracted the attention of the Shu army. Two unworthy flying troops rushed toward them, and the cavalry also came to join in the fun.

With the array, people's hearts become stable and they find support for each other.

Although some people still fled and some were scattered, it was no longer as tragic as the previous defeat.

Some officers directed their respective troops to resist.

The vast majority of casualties came from trampling on each other, and not many people actually died at the hands of the Shu army.

Yang Zheng and a group of soldiers from the military guard camp, the central camp, and the middle camp stood in front of the formation and retreated slowly.

The black light armor has amazing defense and cannot be penetrated by swords and arrows.

The Huajing sword swept across, with unparalleled sharpness, the sturdy Shu army's head was missing, and the other Shu soldiers all had a look of fear on their faces.

Linghu Sheng commanded the soldiers to raise their spears, and it was like a forest of reeds suddenly growing in the wilderness.

Will be the courage of the soldiers.

Yang Zheng stood in front of the formation, wearing Cao Shuang's black light armor, with a hood covering half of his face, and holding a Huali sword. The Wei troops around him became more courageous and regained their former elite and bravery.

The harder your bones are, the softer your enemies will be.

The Kingdom of Shu was exhausted and its population was not as large as that of Wei.

Therefore, troops have always been used with great caution.

Prime Minister Zhuge loved his troops as much as his own son, and was unwilling to take risks. He fought with dignity and dignity in every battle, and used a single state to suppress Cao Wei. This was certainly his unparalleled talent.

Fei Yi and Jiang Wan both inherited Prime Minister Zhuge's caution. Since they took office, they cherished the country's power and immediately restricted Jiang Wei's military power.

Jiang Wei was also excluded from this battle and stayed in Fucheng to guard against Sun Wu.

Therefore, Yang Zheng clearly felt that the Shu army was unwilling to fight to the death, and was only consuming and strangling the living forces.

The rear army was tough, and the Shu army turned to attack the two flanks.

Yang Zheng's pressure was greatly reduced. When he returned to the formation, his whole body was covered with feathers and arrows, like a hedgehog.
To be continued...
