In our pre-battle simulation, we had also considered that Xiahou Yuan would surround them and use their numbers advantage to kill Yadan and Yue Ji's troops. When Yadan saw that Xiahou Yuan really wanted to surround them, he suddenly whistled. Yue Ji immediately took out a small paper bag from a pocket on his horse and smashed it at the heads of the sword-shield soldiers who had formed a circle. Some of the small paper packets hit their shields, some hit their heads, and some cracked in the air. The sword-shield soldiers were trapped in a gray mist. It turned out that Yue Ji and the others had taken out some of our finely ground charcoal ashes. According to our shameless policy, since we didn't have enough time to break through the defense of these sword-shield soldiers, we would use underhanded methods. The sword-shield soldiers immediately fell into chaos. Their eyes were all dazzled, and there was a gap in their defense. Yadin and the others who did not throw charcoal ash rode over and fired arrows at the gap that the sword-shield soldiers had revealed. Then, they did not care if there were any fish that escaped the net, and quickly retreated with Yue Ji and the others. However, from our vantage point, seven or eight out of ten sword-shield soldiers have been hit by the arrows. In addition, their eyes have been blinded. It can be said that this group of soldiers has no combat strength left. When Yadan Yueji started to accelerate, the vanguard of Xiahou Yuan's two cavalry units had already surpassed Yadan's group. At this time, the bottom of Xiahou Yuan's U-shaped formation also began to move forward rapidly. It seemed that he was prepared to quickly catch up with the infantrymen after the cavalry surrounded Yadan. Ya Dan adjusted himself as he fled, forming a conical formation. The cavalrymen on both sides had prepared their weapons. The ones that were further in had their arrows pointed diagonally forward, while the ones in the middle were all pointed forward. Yue Ji and Ya Dan were the arrowheads of the entire conical formation. They had both switched to wolf fang clubs and raised them up high ferociously. They also urged their horses forward. The rows behind them were basically three feet long spears. Seeing that the Cao army had just entered the range of the ballista bolts, Yue Ji Ya Dan's troops began to shoot out countless ballista bolts, attempting to sweep away the obstacles in front of them in order to open up an opening. The Cao army was truly fearless. They charged forward despite the rain of arrows, desperately accelerating in an attempt to block the path of Yadan and the others. They waited for the army behind them to surround them. Some of the Cao soldiers with better archery skills also began to shoot back as they charged. People from both sides kept falling off their horses, but there was no way to save those who had fallen off their horses in the process of the ten thousand hooves galloping. They could only pray for their own good fortune.
Ya Dan and the others also knew that once they were surrounded, it would be equivalent to death. After all, they had already killed so many Cao troops, and they would definitely make Xiahou Yuan hate them to death. Xiahou Yuan was Cao Cao's own family, and he showed no mercy to those who opposed the Cao Family. He was involved in the massacre of Xuzhou. Moreover, Xiahou Yuan had been guarding the west of the city for many years, and he had killed countless people. Yadan and the others knew about Xiahou Yuan's terrifying behavior, and they wanted to charge out at all costs. The two armies finally collided with each other. Yadan's spiked club also fiercely smashed onto the spearhead of the Cao army lieutenant who was blocking his path. How could that lieutenant withstand Yadan's full-strength strike? The spear immediately bent into a fried dough twist. The end of the spear was smashed into the horse that the Cao army lieutenant was riding on, and then it was exposed from under the horse's belly. The spiked club's momentum did not weaken, and it still heavily smashed onto the Cao army lieutenant's chest. The metal armor was completely deformed, sinking into the lieutenant's chest. The lieutenant was immediately sent flying, blood spurting out of his mouth as he flew, covering Ya Dan's entire body in blood. Ya Dan didn't care. He stuck out his tongue and licked the ground. He roared loudly and rode his horse towards the next Cao Jun. Yue Ji's side was similar to Ya Dan. The guy blocking the way in front of him had his head smashed into pieces, and even the horse's waist was broken. These two fiendish men swung their spiked clubs away. They were really stuck to each other and died. There was no one under them who could match them. The Cao army in front of them was also a little scared. It was equivalent to sending themselves to death. However, they knew that if they let these guys charge out, Xiahou Yuan would not let them off. They could only charge forward, but not as desperately.
Soon, Yadan-Yueji and the others charged past, leaving behind a trail of dead bodies. Because the Cao army had surrounded them, they had to move horizontally and then turn around. Yadan-Yueji and the others were charging at the Cao cavalry that was turning around. Most of the Cao cavalry could only receive their attacks from the side. With so many crossbow bolts, they were perfect targets. If the Cao army tried to stop them, the cavalry on the outer perimeter would just block the sabers and spears of the Cao army, and Yadan's subordinates behind would raise their hands and shoot arrows. They did not care about the way of gentlemen with the Cao army at all. Although many Cao troops began to counterattack, they were still unable to block the wolf-like and tiger-like shameless charge of Yadan and Yue Ji's group. After paying the price of less than 200 men, Yadan Yoshiyoshi and the rest of the cavalrymen rushed out of Xiahou Yuan's encirclement. As soon as they got out of the encirclement, these guys started to insult Xiahou Yuan and his men. Some of them even turned around and shot arrows at the Cao cavalry's horses, causing them to fall down easily.
Yandan and the others fled. Xiahou Yuan seemed to have gone all out. He commanded his men to pursue and besiege Yandan and Yue Ji without caring about casualties. It seemed that he knew that if Yandan and the others were allowed to escape, the people he brought would not be able to survive if the people of Western Liang fought like this. As they chased and fled, Yadan Yueji had already led his men across the shallow Wei River. Some of these people rode over the stone bridge, while others directly waded through the water. Anyway, the water in the river had just reached the knees of the horses. Xiahou Yuan and the others quickly followed. After all, there was a vast plain in front of them. It would be difficult to ambush something. Xiahou Yuan's troops had been chasing Yadan and the others for almost half a day since morning. The soldiers 'stamina was also showing a difference, and they gradually began to pull away. The soldiers in front had already crossed the Wei River, while the soldiers behind them were still two miles away. The supplies were still behind them. Xiahou Yuan's banner had already crossed the river for a while. There were still 7,000 to 8,000 people surrounding the main road. However, it seemed that some of these people did not intend to move because we could see clearly from the mountain. Some of the remaining people were transporting goods, some were escorts, and so on. They were probably waiting for Xiahou Yuan's people to return before leaving together. This meant that Xiahou Yuan's main force had almost gone over. Seeing that Xiahou Yuan's pursuers had already crossed the river for a mile, and that many of them had already entered our ambush, I said to Hu Ju,
" Send the signal. Begin the general attack."
Hu Ju and the others couldn't hold it in any longer. Upon hearing my order, Hu Ju jumped up happily. He took out a large two-legged kick from his leather pocket and lit it up. With two thuds, a cloud of white smoke rose from the explosion of gunpowder in the sky. I also noticed that the message trees on the surrounding mountains had fallen one after another. Yandan and the others stopped cursing and desperately galloped forward. I shouted,
"For the Great Han Dynasty, for our homeland, kill!”
The leader charged out. According to the division of labor that I had just decided with Zhang Bao and Jiang Wei, a portion of the Tai Tiger Battalion followed me to charge at the stone bridge. The rest of the infantry, led by Wang Ping and Jiang Wei, charged at the middle-aged scholar that Xiahou Yuan had left behind. That middle-aged scholar seemed to be a very important person under Xiahou Yuan because he had so many people protecting him. The 600 cavalrymen, led by Zhang Bao and Guan Xing, charged towards the supplies. Although we took down Ji City, we didn't get much. We can't waste Xiahou Yuan's supplies. As we charged forward, explosions began to ring out from the north side of the bridge. Boom, boom, boom, boom. Thick black smoke began to roll up, and there were shouts and hoofbeats that shook the sky. The middle-aged scholar's expression changed drastically, and he quickly said a few words to the messengers beside him. The flag bearer behind him began to wave the flag in his hand. One could see the large "Meng" character embroidered on the flag. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to care who this person was. I just spurred my horse forward. Hu Ju also carried his big stick and followed closely beside me. We have to quickly seal that stone bridge and cut off the connection between the Cao army's rear and front troops.
The Cao army on the other side of the bridge also knew that they had been ambushed. Many of them had been injured and burned. A bloody section of intestines had been stuck to Xiahou Yuan's flag. Xiahou Yuan's banner was also retreating rapidly. After all, the surroundings were already in a sea of fire, but there was no one behind them. Those who ran faster had already reached the river. Some quickly dived into the water to extinguish the fire on their bodies, some wanted to lower the temperature of their scalded areas, and some horses stood still in the river. It seemed that horses were afraid of being burned and wanted to cool down. In a short while, the river was filled with people. Hu Ju, me, and some of the Tai Tiger Battalion had already rushed to the south of the bridge, blocking the way through. The Cao army also saw us. They ignored the fact that many people didn't care and continued to walk into the river, wanting to wade over. At this moment, there was a series of explosions and the sound of running water came from the river. We knew that the water had been released upstream, but the Cao soldiers didn't expect it. When they saw the water rushing down, some of them were so scared that they couldn't move at all. In the blink of an eye, the Wei River's water level rose rapidly, and soon it was as deep as a person. The Cao soldiers who had been trying to catch their breath by the river were all gone.
However, Xiahou Yuan's troops were indeed worthy of being the valiant soldiers who had followed Xiahou Yuan for many years. Soon, some soldiers began to gather on the stone bridge and prepare to attack. On the south side, although Wang Ping and Jiang Wei had already begun to exchange fire with the middle-aged man surnamed Meng's soldiers, the man surnamed Meng ignored Wang Ping and the others and resolutely attacked the stone bridge. The entire battlefield became a multi-layered pie. I was in the middle, Cao Cao's army was on both sides, and uncle's troops were further out. If we let Xiahou Yuan's two sides merge, they might break out and our ambush will be in vain. If they are entangled by me and can't gather together, we might be able to annihilate them. The bridge I was on became the key. Uncle, Xiahou Yuan, and the middle-aged scholar might have all seen this and began to lead their troops to attack the stone bridge with all their might.
I took a look. That guy surnamed Meng has fewer soldiers on his side, so his attack power might be weak. I arranged for all of us to retreat to the bridge to reduce the possibility of Cao Cao's army attacking from both sides. I asked Meng Tuolei and Guo Huai to lead the men to block the south side of the bridge, while Hu Ju, Wang Shuangding, and I stayed on the north side of the bridge. The Cao army swarmed over, and we immediately fell into a bitter battle. I held a halberd, Hu Ju held a large staff, Wang Shuang held a large saber in front of us, two large shieldbearers protected us on both sides, and more than ten spears helped us block the sudden chaotic blades. Riding a horse on the bridge was no longer possible, so I placed the horse in the middle of the bridge. Unless we all died in battle, the horse would not be harmed. I was also ruthless, using my halberd to pick, wipe, hook, stab, stab, and leather. It was already a mess in front of me, with minced meat, broken limbs, and broken arms. However, those Cao soldiers still rushed over like crazy. Some of them couldn't hit me, so they kept firing arrows. Some people took the time to throw their guns in. It was easier to deal with short-range attacks, but these things that fell from the sky were simply impossible to guard against. Many people around me have already been injured and fallen. Hu Ju on the left was also covered in blood, and so was Wang Shuang on the right. It seemed that they were also injured. According to the agreement, Cheligu, who was supposed to be coming along the Wei River, should be approaching this place soon, but there was still no sign of him. He had killed too many people. The blood and flesh under his feet almost reached his feet. It was a little slippery and he could easily fall if he was not careful. I had just blocked a javelin when I suddenly lost my balance and fell to the ground. Seeing that there was an opportunity, a dozen Cao soldiers charged at me. There were corpses on both sides of me, and I couldn't move even if I rolled. I was about to die. A thought suddenly flashed through my mind.
"It's over. Farewell."
Hu Ju's heart-wrenching shout rang out beside her ear,
"No, Young Master."
The past and present life in his mind flashed by in the blink of an eye, and he left before his career was completed. I can't accept this.
Immediately after, there was a popping sound, but I didn't feel any pain. I thought I was dead, but I felt a pain in my ankle and was dragged back by someone. I opened my eyes and saw that there was a soldier behind me who saved me. He pounced on me and the spearheads were all stuck in his body. It was Wang Shuang who pulled me back. But now, Hu Ju was the only one holding the fort. He was struggling left and right, and he was in a fluster. Suddenly, Hu Ju shouted,
"Ah, f * ck your mother."
It turned out that a Cao Jun had stabbed him in the thigh. Hu Ju staggered and almost fell down. More than ten spears were aimed at him. He didn't care. Before he fell, he swung his rod and smashed the head of the Cao Jun who had stabbed him into pieces. I quickly stepped forward and used Army Obliteration to smash the spear heads all over the ground. I'm angry. If this were to happen, wouldn't they all die here? Let's fight. I reached out with my left hand and grabbed one of the Cao soldiers. I swung him up with one arm and threw him at the Cao soldiers in front of me. I stabbed with the halberd in my right hand and slashed down. I walked forward step by step and shouted as I walked,
"Who dares to fight?"
I killed 20 people in 20 steps, smashed 50 people to death, and hacked 100 people to death. I felt as if I had just been fished out of a blood vat. My eyes were wide open like copper bells, and I looked like a demon king had just appeared. The Cao army was so scared that they kept retreating. Wang Shuang and Hu Ju followed closely behind me and shouted,
"Who dares to fight?"
