Chapter 27: Defeated like a collapsed canal

 Besides, most of the Han army had not participated in the battle. They saw Liu Bei's headquarters retreating towards the north, but the red and black Soaring Cloud and Flying Tiger flags still stood. All the generals said: "Sure enough, General.

If you have deceived defeat and lured the enemy, the flag is standing straight, isn't the general giving orders?"

Seeing that Sun Ben Ji Ling's troops were really taking advantage of the victory to pursue them,

When they went deeper, they had completely ignored the flanks, and the Han soldiers were overjoyed. The various tribes did not communicate with each other, and they all rushed out cavalry to outflank and cut off the rear. The army rushed northeast to cover up and kill Yuan Shu's army.

In order to compete for glory, the armies no longer line up and have no coordination.

The front has actually broken into the enemy formation, and arrows from our own side are still coming from behind. There is no distinction between ourselves and the enemy on the battlefield.

People were on their backs and their horses were in chaos.

Yuan Shu's army was attacked from behind and was immediately frightened. Liu Bei gathered hundreds of his trusted knights, all dismounted, tied the reins to their bodies, and fought on foot with long swords, temporarily blocking Sun Ben's attack. He was blocked.

When Yuan Shu's soldiers learned that they were being attacked behind them, their morale was in chaos. They turned back one after another, trampling on each other and refusing to give in. Although officers at all levels were still shouting, everyone was in danger and only cared about their lives. No one listened to the order.

.

The strange thing is that at the moment when the offensive and defensive positions were changing, there was a moment of stagnation on the battlefield. It didn't seem like people were fighting, but they all seemed to have stopped.

Observing and listening, trying to understand the changes in the scene and our own position. Once Sun, Ben and Jiling discovered that enemies were pouring in from all directions to behead their heads, they finally understood their desperate situation. Suddenly, their

The military formation was like an embankment washed away by the general assembly, making frightening loud noises and falling apart in an instant.

The pursuing Yuan Shu's army was like mud and sand in the torrential siege and impact of the Han army. The flood carried mud and scattered sand into Ji Ling's camp, and then turned around and rushed into Yuan Shu's main camp, which had been watching quietly without fighting.

Under the flood-like impact of the Han army, Yuan Shu's army camp was unable to put up a strong resistance at all. All the soldiers of the army ran to the horse gallery to fight for their lives. In order to seize the horses and escape, they even drew their swords and hacked each other.

The people who snatched the horses didn't even have time to fit the saddles, so they got on the horses and ran southeast. The people without horses also staggered under the impact of the turbulent flow of people and horses, and ran southeast. Towards Runan

On the road, smoke and dust filled the air, and there were all the soldiers throwing away their helmets and armor and running away for their lives.

The knights of the Han army were galloping in pursuit, like calm hunters chasing a huge herd of panicked animals, and this is what the combined knights are best at. They were once defeated in embarrassment under the brave and intensive attack of the Yuzhou army, and now

Then he would ride his horse and shoot arrows in the panicked enemy formation, looking for enemy generals and killing them in order to achieve meritorious service.

Different from the simple style of the Bafu, Yuan Shu's generals mostly wore brocade robes and embroidered scarves.

It is very easy to identify. The soldiers of the Han army all looked for the people with splendid clothes and chased them. Under Yuan Shu, Shi Yiguan, Huang Yi, Yan Xiang, Han Yin, Hui Qu, Qiao Rui, Zhang Xun and others were either captured or captured.

Hunting and killing, Yuan Shu's staff, almost no fish slipped through the net.

Yuan Shu had not fully sobered up from the wine. Even though there was a loud killing outside, he was still a little fuzzy under the humid water vapor of Yingchuan River. But his son Yuan Yao couldn't wait any longer. He called his uncle Yuan Yin,

The famous scholar Shu Shao, the knight Zhang Kai, who was drunk with his father, and more than a dozen of his followers, hurriedly took dry food and treasures and ran out of the tent. Surrounded by soldiers who were fleeing for their lives, no matter how they shouted,

No one paid attention to them. They couldn't find the horses, so they had to escape on foot in despair.

Fortunately, Zheng Hun saw something was wrong early on, so he sent people to seize nearly a hundred horses and waited for them at the gate of the camp. When he saw Yuan Shu who was still awake, Zheng Hun lamented to himself: "Why come here! Why come here!"

He brought the horses over again and said loudly: "Let's go quickly! Are you waiting to be taken as prisoners?" Yuan Shu and his party were able to escape and fled all the way back to Pingyu.

Long before Yuan Shu's camp was broken, Sun Ben was surrounded by the Han army and knocked off his horse. He lost his bag and weapons. He stood up on his knees with his left hand and stretched out his right hand to catch the enemy's sword point from his horse.

, he was going to cut his throat. The Han army had seen that he was extremely brave and wanted to catch people alive, so they quickly drew the long pot of pottery backwards. The pottery blade scratched Sun Ben's palm, and blood suddenly dripped. Sun Ben seemed to have no idea.

Painful, eyes blank, he fell to the ground and sat down. In half a day, victory, defeat, honor and disgrace were turned upside down, sadness and regret were intertwined. This was probably a hundred times more painful than dying directly.

The Cold Knife Team, originally known as the elite, had been wiped out in successive attacks by the Han army. However, there was still a team of about five or six hundred people, always gathered in a group, like an isolated island in the flood. I couldn't help but

Instead of being overwhelmed, they stubbornly faced the oncoming enemy and retreated. Later, more and more Han cavalry were gradually attracted by them, and there were about two thousand cavalry surrounding them.

These cavalry did not attack by force, but kept riding close to shoot arrows to consume the opponent. As time went by, most of these armored swordsmen had arrows stuck in their bodies, and more and more people were killed and injured. The few remaining military commanders

They all discussed together and said: "We have done our best to kill the enemy and show loyalty. If we don't surrender at this time, we will just be buried with the general. Why bother? Let's surrender!" So they jointly launched a leader and solved the problem.

Wearing armor and no weapons, we walked out of the formation to ask for surrender, and finally saved the lives of the rest of the troops.

The brave general Liu Xun also galloped away in the chaos. The knights who were originally following him were scattered by the crowd. Only Cangtou Wang Qi and him ran towards the east one after another. He rode up a dirt road in one breath.

Kan. Liu Xun looked around. There were sparse trees, and under the gray hazy sky, there were not many people and horses that could be seen, and they were all running for their lives.

At this time, Liu Xun found that his mount had been hit by an arrow and was limping on its hind legs, obviously unable to support itself. Wang Qi did not catch up, so he jumped off the horse and sat on the ridge to rest while Wang Qi came to change horses.

Liu Xun had just killed Yang Chou bravely and had already made a name for himself in both armies. His black armor and the purple brocade hat on his iron hood had already been recognized by the knights of the Han army. At this moment, he was sitting on a high place, chasing the enemy with horses all around.

When the knights of the Han army saw it, they said, "Isn't that the iron-cutting man in the bandit army? The head of Captain Yang Chou is hanging on the horse beside him!"

The horse gallops over.

Liu Xun discovered that dozens of knights under his command were heading towards him in the distance. He was momentarily embarrassed and panicked. He rolled over and rolled into the ditch under the ridge, where he lay down and hid.

The chasing horse arrived quickly, only to see his mount injured, lying on a high place waiting for death. Someone said: "If you don't have a horse, you won't get far." So they dispersed around the ridge to search, and saw an enemy general with a purple hat leaning down.

He squatted and knelt in the ditch and called out: "The traitor came up and tied his hands and feet. I will take you to the shogunate to reward you!"

As he spoke, more than ten knights overturned their saddles and dismounted, crowded on the edge of the ravine, and dragged Liu Xun up. One knight said: "Please reward me to repay the name of all of us. But this man is so brave, if he is injured on the way

What if the person escaped? Why don't you take the head and receive the reward?" Everyone said well, held down Liu Xun, took off his hat and trousers, pulled out a sharp knife, quickly cut off the head, and put it on the tip of the bamboo pole.

, inserted high on the ridge to show off.

Liu Xun's subordinate Wang Qi rode a subordinate horse. He saw his master sitting on a high place in the distance. He was about to go over, but suddenly saw the Han army knight chasing him all the way. He was so frightened that he jumped off his horse and hid behind

He didn't dare to pass by from a distance. After a while, he saw a head picked up from a high place. Knowing that the owner had been killed, he had to face the direction of the head and silently pray for him in his heart, wishing that the owner's soul would be buried. Then he rode on his horse.

He abandoned his bow, arrows, armor and other items, wrapped his head with a black scarf, hid a short knife in his arms, and ran away in an uninhabited direction.

The Han army advanced on foot and cavalry and pursued Yuan Shu's army for dozens of miles along the sleeping shore until dark and sunset. In total, dozens of captains, lieutenants and assistants below Yuan Shu were captured, more than 40,000 sergeants surrendered, and countless weapons and equipment were captured.

Among the several officers, there was actually Lei Bo, the prefect of Guangling! He had left the battlefield early and fled, stopping ten miles away to prepare lunch. However, he did not expect that the army would be defeated so quickly. The defeated army rushed towards him in a chaotic manner, attracting the knights of the Han army.

They swarmed in. The roads were congested and the army had no fighting spirit. The so-called elite cavalry fled for their lives. But Lei Bo himself became a prisoner in a confused way.

When Sun Ben saw Lei Bo in the military tent, he stepped forward and beat him like crazy. Lei Bo knew he was in the wrong and did not dare to fight back, but Sun Ben had no intention of sparing his life. He punched Lei Bo one after another until Lei Bo's face turned red and white.

Soon he was no longer angry, and the surrounding officers did not dare to stop the fight. When Sun Ben's hands were weak from the beating, he laughed loudly and hit his head on the gravel in front of the military tent.

Only Ji Ling was lucky enough to escape with his life. He fled all the way to Shangcai City and collected thousands of remaining soldiers. Only then did he learn about Yuan Shu's escape to Shangcai and rushed to meet him. Sun Ce, who was originally watching the battle on the south bank of Ru River,

At this time, the army sent an envoy to say goodbye to Liu Bei.

After the battle, Liu Bei was sore all over and was resting in his tent. At this time, he heard that Sun Ce's troops were about to leave. He quickly got up, met the envoy, smiled and said to him: "We won this battle, thanks to Bo Fu's hard work, why did we have to go like this?"

Are you in such a hurry? I have prepared a banquet in the army and am waiting for Bo Fu to come and celebrate!"

The envoy was gentle and polite, and declined to Liu Bei, saying: "The virtue of a great general is like the sun and the moon shining brightly. How can it be expressed by one or two meals? I am waiting here because the military aircraft cannot be missed, and I have to rush to rescue Envoy Zhao.

To pacify the six counties of Yangzhou, Yuan Shu will not be allowed to rise again. As for today's banquet, when the world is at peace, Hai Qing He Yan, the young master will entertain the general for a month as an apology, and I hope the general will not refuse."
The messenger's tone was extremely humble, but the arrogance of his words could not be concealed. Liu Bei thought for a while and said regretfully: "Well, I wish you a safe journey." Before leaving, he asked the messenger: "I hope you will speak well."

His appearance is not that of a normal person, can you tell me his name?"

Zhou Yu nodded slightly and saluted, then chuckled and said: "I am still called Hanmo, what can I think about now? If I am lucky enough to be able to make the general remember me, I hope it will be on the day of my meritorious service."
