When Liu Liang ambushed the Jiangdong Army's right wing, Cai Sheng also mounted his horse again with his spear and led his cavalry to charge against the Jiangdong Army's left wing.
Since the war, Cai Sheng has charged at the left flank of the Jiangdong Army three times and repeatedly ravaged its formation. He alone has killed dozens of people with his own hands, killing them until their spears were broken, their swords were missing, and his sleeves were covered with blood. His cavalry followed him and fell into enemy formations many times.
, and also killed countless enemies.
An ordinary person might have been unable to withstand it for a long time, but Pan Zhang was not an ordinary person. Although he was a vulgar man, he managed the army with dignity, set up a strong formation, and had the style of a general. In addition, he personally acted as the vanguard and put his soldiers first.
, won the hearts of the people, so he was able to repel Cai Sheng's attacks time and time again, trying to maintain his position.
However, it was useless no matter how well Pan Zhang defended. The right wing collapsed, and in a chain reaction, his left wing defense line also began to waver. At this time, Cai Sheng's cavalry attacked again, and the defense line finally could not bear it anymore and fell into pieces in an instant.
"kill……!"
Cai Sheng led his cavalry to break into the enemy's defense line and galloped wildly inside the enemy's formation. The newly replaced spear in his hand was very sharp. As he swung it, blood spattered and limbs flew around.
"kill……!"
Hundreds of well-armored cavalry followed them like shadows, charging all the way, carelessly jumping over the enemies blocking the road, slashing with swords and spears, and killing the desperate troops in a frantic manner.
"kill……!"
The infantry then followed up and dealt the final blow to the crumbling enemy army.
Following the right wing, the left wing of the Jiangdong Army could not escape the defeat.
Suddenly, the army was defeated like a mountain. The soldiers fought side by side regardless of their superiority. Pan Zhang looked ferocious and directly chopped down the guard who persuaded him to escape. He also cut off Qu Chang and a Sima one after another, and killed the two without any mercy.
People were killed on the spot, and the Sima among them was still his favorite general. Now in this critical moment, he didn't care so much, and his head could just be used to shock people.
Sure enough, the fleeing soldiers stopped in horror when they saw that Pan Zhang had even killed his own confidant Sima, showing no mercy at all.
Pan Zhang glared fiercely at the defeated soldiers and shouted sternly: "Anyone who dares to retreat will be killed! Anyone who dares to run away will be killed! The crime will be on your family! If you follow me and return to fight at this time, you can forget about it, otherwise..."
Pan Zhang's tone was grim.
When the defeated soldiers heard the threat in Pan Zhang's words, they felt as if they had been poured cold water on them. They calmed down a little from their panic. Even though they were reluctant in every way, they thought that their family members in the rear might be implicated because of them.
, we can only submit obediently and return to fight again.
Pan Zhang's team went upstream, gathering broken troops along the way, growing like a snowball, and soon collided with the Jingzhou army.
Cai Sheng was quite surprised. He didn't expect Pan Zhang to be able to regroup. Then he smiled coldly. When the overall situation was decided, the other party's move was tantamount to trying to control the situation.
Cai Sheng did not blindly attack with a frontal force. Although he had full confidence in defeating it, a frontal force attack would undoubtedly increase casualties. There was no need to do so. He used infantry to contain the enemy from the front, while he himself led the cavalry to attack from the flank.
The Jiangdong Army officers relied on their faith in their families to support themselves. Being able to turn back and fight again was almost the limit. Where they could withstand the flank attack of the cavalry, they were defeated again in an instant. This time, no matter how many Pan Zhang killed,
People can't stop the trend of defeat.
Pan Zhang knew that he had no way to make a comeback, so he couldn't help but let out a long sigh. He was so ashamed of the defeat that he refused to flee the battlefield. Knowing that the defeat was certain, he still withdrew to the Chinese army with more than ten cavalry, and met with Sun Ben.
meet.
Chasing and defeating the enemy is undoubtedly the easiest time to gain the most gains on the battlefield. However, Cai Sheng's immediate priority is to cooperate with the other two groups to flank the Jiangdong Army's center. Therefore, Cai Sheng did not pursue the defeated enemy too much. He turned around and led the infantry.
The cavalry followed closely behind Pan Zhang and charged towards the central army.
Both the left and right wings were defeated, and the front army was also unable to support itself. Under the continuous fierce attacks of Huang Zhong and Wei Yan, their positions were lost one after another and they continued to retreat backwards.
Huang Zhong watched from a distance as Han Dang rode his horse and crossed his spear, galloping back and forth, marshaling his officers and men. The reason why the enemy's front army was able to hold out until now, in addition to Sun Ben's constant sending of troops for reinforcements, also had a lot to do with this man.
Han Dang was not only good at leading troops, but his personal bravery was also commendable. Whenever there was danger in the defense line, Han Dang and dozens of his cavalry would counterattack and trap the formation. When the defense line was stabilized again, he would immediately retreat to the formation and never hesitate to fight.
Because of this, Huang Zhong and Wei Yan failed to succeed in several encirclement and killing operations.
However, after successive battles, most of Han Dang's subordinates had been killed. Those who survived were all injured and exhausted. It was difficult to follow Han Dang to the front line.
Seeing that the enemy troops were retreating steadily, but still holding their breath and refusing to "die", Huang Zhong lost all patience and temporarily handed over the command to Wei Yan. He led dozens of cavalry to rush through the gap in the enemy's formation and rushed straight towards
Handang.
"Anyone who stands in my way will die!" Huang Zhong took the lead. With the momentum of his war horse, he swept a large iron halberd from left to right. The enemy soldiers were wiped out in an instant as if they were made of paper.
The corpses of the wounded and broken soldiers lay on the ground.
The cavalry under his command also fought bravely to take the lead, one against ten, and they were unstoppable.
Jiangdong's army was already at the end of its strength. Seeing Huang Zhong's bravery, he was like a god of war. Wherever he passed, the soldiers avoided his sharp edge and retreated to both sides in order to survive.
The waves broke all the way, and in the blink of an eye, Huang Zhong rushed to Han Dang on flying horse. His eyes were fixed on Han Dang, he pointed at Han Dang with his big iron halberd, and shouted loudly: "Death to Bei Nu!"
Han Dang was furious when he heard this. He was very taboo about others mentioning his experience as a military slave, let alone directly calling him a "Northern slave". Han Dang retorted with a spear: "Chu thieves are just using their words.
, I always step forward to accept death!"
Han Dang's cavalry on the left and right tried to step forward to stop Huang Zhong, but Huang Zhong fought all the way without losing his strength at all, and his momentum reached its peak. At this time, it can be said that people are killing people, and Buddhas are killing Buddhas. No one is killed under the big iron halberd.
When the enemy joins forces, within a few breaths, he will break through the obstruction.
Han Dang would not wait obediently to die on the spot. The moment Huang Zhong rushed out, Han Dang galloped towards him and stabbed him in the face.
Being attacked by Han Dang, Huang Zhongyi was not afraid. He swung the iron halberd with his right hand to block the tip of his spear. Unexpectedly, he had grasped the red blood sword with his left hand and slashed at Han Dang's neck like lightning.
Han Dang was taken aback, twisted his waist and neck, narrowly avoiding this sudden fatal blow. Before he could rejoice, the horse suddenly staggered and fell to the ground. Han Dang was unprepared for the moment, and his body fell heavily to the ground.
It turns out that Huang Zhong's attack on Han Dang with his sword was just a false move. The real purpose was to attract Han Dang's attention and secretly cut off the hind hooves of Han Dang's mount with a halberd.
Han Dang fell very hard. He was dizzy for a while and could not get up. Before Huang Zhong could turn around, his cavalrymen stabbed Han Dang with their spears one after another. In an instant, Han Dang was hit by four or five spears on his limbs and screamed from his mouth.
Screaming repeatedly.
In the end, Huang Zhong cut off Han Dang's head with a knife, causing him to completely lose his voice.
