The carriage is different from the cavalry. The cavalry is just the weight of the cavalry plus the horse, and the weight of the carriage is much greater than the weight of the cavalry. Therefore, the shield wall can block the impact of the cavalry, but the impact of the carriage is a bit shaking.
Shields flew into the air upon the impact of the carriage, and in an instant, three rows of shield walls were knocked to pieces.
The carriage falling into the shield wall not only disrupted their formations, but the slow ignition materials in the carriage also tilted out instantly, plunging the shield wall into a sea of flames.
"Run."
"I can't stop it."
"help me."
Flames poured down, and the shield wall that had been able to support it collapsed instantly. The shield soldiers fled in all directions under the double attack of the carriage and the flames.
The shield wall was broken, but the carriage behind it was like mercury leaking out, directly attacking Cao, Lu and San's coalition forces.
"Run,"
"Run, run."
"ah."
Facing the oncoming flaming carriage and looking at the driver with a cruel smile on the carriage, the three-party coalition collapsed completely. If someone with extremely high psychological quality can make a mountain collapse in front of his eyes without chaos, it is believable.
It is impossible for an army of only a few hundred thousand to do this.
"Hahahaha, the Jizhou army is undefeated."
"The Jizhou army is victorious."
"The Jizhou Army is an existence that you will never be able to defeat."
Seeing the enemy collapse, the soldiers driving the carriage became even more crazy. They shouted slogans one by one and continued to rush forward while driving the carriage.
As the flaming carriages rushed forward, the three collapsing coalition forces fled in all directions. Even so, countless soldiers were knocked over and rolled on the ground in the blazing flames.
"Brothers, the time has come for revenge. Archers, let loose your arrows."
Seeing the enemy collapse, Zhang He, who was following the flame carriage, roared, and it was time for them to counterattack.
"Fire the arrow."
"Fire the arrow."
"Fire the arrow."
Each team leader roared loudly, and countless arrows rained down from the sky, falling directly on the three-party coalition forces. Countless enemies were immediately shot to death in the chaos, and the ground was full of soldiers who fell under the rain of arrows.
Next to them were the enemy's carriages, with handfuls of flames at their feet, and countless arrows above their heads. The soldiers from all three parties collapsed even more severely. Even though Lu Bu and Cao Ren and others tried their best to scream for the soldiers and horses to calm down, they still couldn't.
To make up for it, they could only march in all directions under the coercion of the defeated troops.
There was another burst of bloody massacre. After suffering huge damage, Cao, Lu, and Zhou finally evacuated from this blood-stained land. The battlefield that was boiling like a raging fire gradually subsided and fell into calm.
"Yan Liang was a soldier of the Polu Army and thanked Mr. Zibu for saving his life."
Although Yan Liang was covered in blood, he still came to Zhang Zhao with the help of his guards, and then bowed deeply to him.
"General Yan Liang cannot do this. Zhang Zhao is just doing his job and does not deserve such a great gift."
Facing Yan Liang's gift, Zhang Zhao quickly helped him up.
"Sir, what should we do next?"
Yan Liang looked at Zhang Zhao. He had suffered heavy losses this time. To be honest, he was really confused and didn't know what to do.
"Next, gather our troops and horses for the time being and retreat fifty miles to camp. I have already put all our luggage there. Let's listen to what the lord has to say."
In this situation, they could only retreat temporarily and wait for news from Yuan Shu. Now they could not decide whether to leave or attack Zhang Zhao.
"promise."
The remnants of the army gathered together, and Yan Liang and the others took the remaining troops and horses to seize the opportunity to retreat. After all, if they really had to wait for the enemy to recover, they would be surrounded again.
The bloody night gradually passed, and the slowly rising sun once again filled the earth with sunlight, but what he saw was full of corpses, with broken limbs and puddles of blood everywhere.
General Cao Ren took Xiahou Dun who was lying on the carriage and the 30,000 remnants of the army back to the Houri Mountain. Looking at Xi Zhicai who had been waiting outside, their eyes were full of shame.
"Military advisor, Cao Ren apologizes."
Cao Ren jumped off his horse and knelt on one knee in front of Xi Zhicai. The other two people also knelt on one knee.
"What's wrong?"
Looking at the broken army, Xi Zhicai couldn't help but frown tightly.
"We thought too simply. Instead of achieving the expected results in this battle, we lost troops and generals. Cao Ren is ashamed."
Hearing Cao Ren's words, Xi Zhicai was immediately stunned. What did this mean? He had 160,000 to 70,000 troops on his own side, and the enemy's opponent only had only 100,000 troops in total. How could it be possible to fight like this?
"Say, I want to know the process."
Although Xi Zhicai is very angry now, he still needs to say what needs to be said and listen to what needs to be heard. He would like to know how this battle was fought?
Is it true, as the rumors say, that the heroes of Jizhou are all made of iron and can be equal to ten?
"When we rushed to the enemy's camp, we found that it was an empty camp. We realized something was wrong and immediately wanted to retreat, but the enemy was already prepared. Countless stone bullets came directly at us.
Although we immediately dispatched cavalry to destroy the enemy's trebuchets, nearly one hundred thousand Yuan Shu's troops rushed in front of us.
After a hard battle, Zhou Ping sent out troops. The enemy felt that they were outmatched, so he left one army behind and the rest fled directly.
Just when we were encircling and suppressing the broken troops, a large number of burning carriages suddenly appeared. Facing these carriages, the soldiers' mentality immediately collapsed.
At this time, the fleeing enemy also came back after the carriage. The panicked soldiers could not fight against the opponent, so they could only flee in all directions. This is the process of this battle."
Cao Ren briefly refined the language and told Xi Zhicai about the situation on the battlefield.
"Hey, time is also destiny. There are some powerful people in Yuan Shu's side army."
Hearing Cao Ren's words, Xi Zhicai was helpless. Being able to abandon his carriage at a critical moment and set fire to attack his own military formation was not a decision that an ordinary person could make.
The reason why this battle was fought like this was because the leakage of intelligence was the most critical. The enemy was on guard and even ambushed us in reverse. It was really depressing.
"Well, but after this battle ends like this, what should we do next?
Now Yuan Shu's troops must have known about our arrival, and I'm afraid that Yuan Shu's Dan disciples will launch an attack soon."
Although this battle ended in such a tragic situation, what you do next is the most important thing.
"Well, that's right. Although we didn't lose this battle, it's considered a failure if we didn't achieve the expected result. So no matter what, we have to return to Dantu immediately, and at the same time send people to Shouchun to talk to Chen Wen, who is very powerful.
Try to get him to send Lu Bu to go with us."
Now it is completely meaningless for them to be here. The enemy is on guard and will not give us the opportunity to sneak attack or encircle him. Therefore, he must rush back to Dan Tu to volunteer with Cao Cao. Once Dan Tu is defeated, it will be all over.
"Cao Ren understands."
Hearing Xi Zhicai's words, Cao Ren also nodded. Now it seems that there is really no point for them to stay in Jiujiang County. With such a tone, it would be better to return to Dan Tu to support Cao Cao neatly.
"Also, General Xia Houyuan and General Li Dian will take the lead. There are few generals there, so I'm afraid I will suffer a loss when we attack the city."
"promise."
The two of them nodded directly and without hesitation, they galloped towards Alchemy's disciples.
"Yuan Rang, how are you?"
After some arrangements were made, Xi Zhi came to the seriously injured Xiahou Dun, with distress in his eyes.
"Military advisor, Xiahou Dun has paid your lord a great trust."
Even though Xiahou Dun was covered with bandages, he still struggled to do it.
"No, no, no, the general is suffering."
Xi Zhicai gently supported Xiahou Dun and couldn't help but shake his head.
"Why."
Facing Xi Zhicai, Xiahou Dun could only sigh and lie down on the carriage.
