In the wilderness, Liang Jun and the Mongolian army clashed. Smoke was everywhere and the war spread.
Smoke and dust swept across the sky, and the flying blood dyed the sky red. The three legions of the Liang Army totaled 300,000 people, while the Mongolian cavalry only had less than 200,000.
Under the combined attack of Xiao Zhan and Shen Lian, Dong Zhuo was not defeated, but he could not gain any benefit at all.
The Liang soldiers were so numerous that they were like a flood bursting from a dike. The three legions broke out from one place and tore a hole through the Mongolian army.
"Dong Zhuo, you are a blind and arrogant man who only possesses military power. After today, you will pay the price for your ignorance."
"Emperor Chu, unless you can resist, you should return to Mongolia quickly, because the two of you are very different in intelligence, courage, and ability."
Xiao Zhan's spear fell across the air, and a disdainful voice sounded. Although he hated Emperor Chu in his heart, he also appreciated and admired Emperor Chu. In his eyes, Dong Zhuo was just a powerful countryman. In the chaotic times of the War Continent, there would be no great people at all. Even if his deeds last a lifetime, he will never be able to compete with Emperor Chu.
Finished.
Generals Xiao Zhan and Shen Lian withdrew their troops, returned to their horses and galloped away, leading the breakout army across the wilderness.
Dong Zhuo was ridiculed for his worthlessness, and his heart was filled with anger. Looking at Xiao Zhan and Shen Lian galloping, the flames of anger surged in his bell-like eyes.
"All the soldiers obeyed the order and pursued Liang Jun with all their strength. I, the general, will let them crush their bones and ashes."
Dong Zhuo has dominated the battlefield for many years, leading his cavalry to gallop across the grasslands, killing powerful enemies and repelling fierce soldiers. Never has he ever been so ridiculed.
Xiao Zhan completely angered him, like a mad lion, he tightened the reins in his hands, the flying swallow's halberd fell behind his back, his legs slapped the horse, and he chased Xiao Zhan at lightning speed.
Horses roared and neighed throughout the sky, swords flashed and sword shadows crisscrossed, flags roared, the breeze passed by gently, and the smoke and dust in the sky changed unpredictably, moving with the wind and quickly streaking across the armor of the soldiers.
At this moment.
There was a sound of horse hoofbeats coming from behind the army, and Li Ru, Liu Bei, and Guan Yu were seen approaching on horseback with their whips raised. Li Ru's face was full of panic, and he was waving his whip wildly, trying to catch up with Dong Zhuo.
Li Ru shouted at the top of his lungs, and the roaring sound was completely drowned in the sound of horse hooves. Dong Zhuo's advancing horse was as fast as a flying arrow, with no intention of stopping.
Xiao Zhan glanced back and saw that Dong Zhuo was chasing after him. He looked sideways and said, "Shen Lian, where is the camp of dead soldiers under your command?"
"The Death Soldier Battalion listened to the order and stopped the Mongolian cavalry to buy time for the army to retreat!"
"Got the order!"
The black-armored soldiers running wildly on Shen Lian's right side reined in their horses and stood up, pointing their spears directly at the oncoming Mongolian cavalry.
There are a thousand people in Shen Lian's Death Soldier Battalion. They are all prisoners who have nowhere to go or have serious crimes. They join Shen Lian's Death Soldier Battalion and receive training in secret, hoping to make achievements on the battlefield.
at this time.
Thousands of people in the camp of dead soldiers reined up their horses and stood looking directly at Dong Zhuo, who was charging towards them. They looked fearless and regarded death as if they were home.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
Facing the thousands of cavalry charging towards them, Dong Zhuo glared with anger, Feiyan spun around, the flesh on his face trembled slightly, he raised his halberd and galloped towards them.
"Little Xiao Zhan, I want to use you to stop this general. What a wishful thinking!"
The flying swallow penetrated the void, and the dead generals who were attacking him were lifted into the void by the halberd. Dong Zhuo roared, his arms rotated, and the corpses on the halberd were thrown out, crossing the void and hitting the dead soldiers who were coming. Fly out.
"Mongolian warrior, kill!"
Flying straight into the sky, Dong Zhuo stood on the horse with his crotch, his eyes glaring, and the sound was like thunder. He saw the galloping cavalry on both sides of him rushing out, the swords were shining with silver light, and the spears were sharp.
The Mongolian cavalry fought fiercely with thousands of dead soldiers. Li Ru urged the horse forward, jumped off the horse, and walked quickly to the wind.
"General, the Emperor of Chu is cunning and insidious. He does not really want to join forces with our army. All of this is his plan. He intends to divide the coalition forces so that he can defeat them one by one."
"What, Li Ru, say it again!"
Dong Zhuo looked ashen and had no doubts about Li Ru's words. He didn't expect Xiao Zhan to guess right.
"Emperor Chu, you are incompetent for bullying the Sa family? If you dare to play with me like this, the Sa family will make you pay a heavy price."
"Send the order and give up the pursuit of Liang Jun. The three armies will assemble immediately."
Dong Zhuo's flesh trembled slightly, his eyes were as sharp as a sword, he suppressed the anger in his heart, and thoughts were racing in his mind.
"General, give the order to withdraw the troops!"
"Changes will happen late. If you don't leave, it may be too late!"
Li Ru's face was as pale as paper, he was panting, and his urgent voice sounded.
"retreat!"
"The Emperor of Chu teased the Sa family in the midst of applause. How could I let him get what he wanted? Li Ruxiu wanted to talk about retreating again."
Dong Zhuo shouted sharply, and at this moment Liu Bei and Guan Yu arrived, Dong Zhuo's eyes flashed across the two of them.
"Xuande, Yun Chang, and Emperor Chu were cunning and cunning, and completely disrupted X's plan. Now our Mongolian cavalry has gone deep alone, with no way out, so the Sa family decided to go to Leling City to join forces with Zhang Xiu's army and march straight to Chu.
Imperial City."
"Guan Yu listens to the order. I have ordered you to lead 50,000 cavalry to Maicheng to help the Western Jin army guard the city. Remember not to let the Chu army capture Maicheng. The purpose of your visit is to contain the Chu army."
"Now that the coalition forces have been disintegrated by Emperor Chu, he will definitely target the Western Jin Dynasty and Daliang, which will give us an opportunity. As long as we enter the capital of Chu State in one fell swoop, these thousands of miles of mountains and rivers will fall into our hands.
.”
At this time, Dong Zhuo was somewhat resourceful. As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Bei said: "General, I would like to go to Maicheng and guard it with my second brother. I hope the general will do it."
"How can Xuande be so powerful that one city can accommodate it? I have vowed to capture the imperial capital of Chu State this time. By then, thousands of cities will need Xuande to guard them. I'd better stay with the Sa family."
Dong Zhuozhi knew that the two of them had never truly surrendered, but now it was time to employ people. They felt like brothers and sisters. As long as Liu Bei stayed by his side, Guan Yu would swear to be loyal to him to the death.
Liu Bei was about to speak, but he saw Dong Zhuo fluffing his sleeves and turning back on his horse to look behind him. Liu Bei looked embarrassed, and Guan Yu nodded gently, indicating that he didn't need to worry too much.
The Mongolian cavalry gathered, and the remaining soldiers of the Liang Kingdom's dead soldier camp fled. Dong Zhuo handed over 50,000 soldiers and horses to Guan Yu and asked him to lead the army to Maicheng.
Guan Yu led his troops and galloped away. The army gradually disappeared from the sight of Dong Zhuo and Liu Bei. Li Ru jumped on his horse and spoke.
"General, if you want to go to Leling City to join Zhang Xiu's army, you need to move your troops very quickly. The Emperor of Chu sent troops to Leling two days ago, and my subordinates are afraid that Zhang Xiu's army will not be able to resist the Chu army's front."
"Li Ru and Zhang Xiu are no longer as capable as Chu generals Lu and Zhao. There are many generals and soldiers in Leling City, and there is ample food, grass and baggage. It is impossible for the Chu army to break through in a short while."
"The three armies were ordered to move quickly along the direction of Qifeng Mountain and head to Laoling City overnight." (To be continued)
