Even though the situation was gradually becoming clearer, the players involved were still confused.
In such a chaotic situation, even famous generals like Gai Xun and Lu Zhi couldn't keep commanding.
Although there were more than 100,000 people on the battlefield, the number of people who could still control the overall situation and keenly judge the direction of the situation could be counted on one hand.
Xun You, the acting military advisor of the Central Army, was one of them.
When the Central Army was trying to break free from Xu Rong's entanglement and launch a counterattack, he noticed that the battle situation had suddenly developed.
"Why?"
Xun You looked at the outer battle line and frowned, deep in thought.
Logically speaking, the enemy should have already seen through their movements. The most correct thing to do now was to try their best to stop the Central Army from counterattacking.
However, the surprising thing was that Dong Zhuo's army's offensive strength didn't increase.
There must be something wrong with this abnormal situation!
"Could it be…"
Xun You suddenly thought of something and quickly looked around the battlefield.
Then, he finally found the answer!
In the distance, a large flag was fluttering in the wind.
Under the fluttering flags, more and more enemy soldiers were quickly gathering!
Normally, such a movement would be easily noticed.
However, the battle was extremely intense now. Almost everyone had fallen into a state of selflessness and killing. In their own army, not many people would notice this!
Xun You looked at the army, then at the Yulin Royal Guards 'position on the other side of the formation.
If they spent time gathering their forces at such a critical moment, not only would it be difficult to reorganize their offensive, but they would also lose many opportunities.
Any commander with a brain would not make such a stupid decision.
Therefore, there was only one possibility left.
Their target was His Majesty the Emperor!
Thinking of this, he immediately sucked in a breath of cold air and hurriedly shouted with the loudest voice in his life,"Quickly inform General Huangfu to immediately lead his troops to the Imperial Forest Army's position! His Majesty is in danger!"
Due to his status as a subject, Xun You did not have much actual command authority.
In addition, the Central Army was very disciplined. Without the order of the higher-ups, the soldiers could not leave their posts.
Therefore, he could only inform General Huangfu, who was closest to him, to go and rescue him.
However, he didn't know if he could make it in time!
Just as Huangfu Song received Xun You's warning and was preparing to mobilize the army.
"Rumble!"
On the other side, Dong Zhuo had already gathered his troops and charged over.
The members of this temporary troop came from the Flying Bear Army, Qiang soldiers, Bingzhou soldiers, Liangzhou soldiers, and other tribes. They were mixed, and their discipline and tacit understanding were not satisfactory.
However, his strong individual qualities made up for his shortcomings.
"Kill them!"
Under Dong Zhuo's personal command, the soldiers once again exploded with astonishing morale and fighting strength, tearing apart the defense of the Central Army.
From the high altitude, one could see that Dong Zhuojun was like a sharp awl, piercing through the defense line one after another.
And this was when Huangfu Song was already prepared.
If not for Xun You's timely reminder, it would have been even worse!
While Huangfu Song was sighing at the overwhelming enemy, he could clearly see that the enemy that had rushed into his camp was determined to go all out.
Although this kind of attack would cause a lot of casualties, the impact was incomparable.
"Hurry up! Head straight for the Yulin Royal Guards!"
After realizing that the Central Army was not prepared enough to form an effective defense, Huangfu Song knew that compared to organizing a defense line, direct interception was the best choice.
The old general's judgment was undoubtedly correct.
However, Huangfu Song's command was fast, but Dong Zhuo's actions were even faster.
Relying on the powerful combat strength of the Western Liang Army, he quickly tore through layers of defense and found and approached the position of the Yulin Royal Guards.
Although the number of subordinates around him was decreasing, the target was getting closer and closer!
As long as they could seize the Emperor and hold him hostage, those old royalists would definitely be afraid.
At that time, no matter how much advantage the central army could gain, they would only end up in defeat!
Thinking of this, Dong Zhuo seemed to see the dawn of victory.
"Follow me!"
Fatty shouted loudly and bravely led the charge.
On the other side, seeing the approaching enemy, the commander of the imperial forest, Huan Dian, couldn't help but become nervous.
Previously, when His Majesty was almost in danger, as the commander of the guards, he undoubtedly had an unshirkable responsibility.
Although the Emperor had no intention of punishing him, he knew that the same situation could not happen again!
"Form a formation to resist the enemy!"
Huan Dian was a good military man. He knew that escorting the Emperor would only increase the risk. Moreover, General Huangfu's reinforcements would soon feel the danger. Defending on the spot was the best choice.
"Hualala!"
The sound of metal colliding rang out.
Three layers of shield walls were in place, tightly protecting the little Emperor, forming a solid defense like an iron wall.
However…
"Boom!"
With the mentality of perishing together, Dong Zhuo's subordinates fearlessly launched a Sacrificial Charge, instantly tearing apart the defense line of the Yulin Royal Guards.
"Immediately fill in!"
Huan Dian had no time to marvel at the enemy's terrifying combat power.
As he shouted, he commanded his subordinates to fill in the gaps.
Suddenly, there was another boom.
On the other side of the battle line, another terrifying gap appeared!
A fat knight brazenly rushed in with his men.
A diversion?
Huan Dian's eyes widened as cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Oh no! Your Majesty!
The Imperial Forest Lieutenant General hurriedly turned around to take a look, and he was instantly scared out of his wits.
The little Emperor actually took the opportunity to shake off the guards and even took the initiative to greet Dong Zhuo!
