Guan Hai saw that he had been blocked and was immediately shocked. He immediately led his troops to retreat and launched a death charge at Xue Rengui's cavalry.
Xue Rengui frowned when he saw that the Yellow Turban soldiers were fearless and charged at him crazily.
The deterrence of cavalry was in running, riding, and shooting.
Normally, a frontal charge would not be done unless one had an advantage or was helpless.
Seeing the enemy outnumbered by several times, Xue Rengui cherished his ten thousand black-armored cavalry, so he immediately gave the order to charge forward. However, he only shot the Yellow Turban bandits with arrows on both sides. Once the Yellow Turban bandits approached, he urged his horse to keep a distance from them.
Arrows flew out like rain, and the Yellow Turban bandits fell one by one. Guan Hai held a spear in his hand and kept pushing away the arrows. He was indifferent to the falling soldiers around him and was determined to escape back into the city.
After losing half of his soldiers, Guan Hai was finally close to the city gate.
Although Xue Rengui cherished his soldiers, he would never let Guan Hai return under his watch!
Xue Rengui suddenly shouted, and the soldiers around him immediately raised their torches, waved their flags, and blew their horns. The ten thousand black-armored cavalry, under his leadership, charged forward and blocked Guan Hai's path of retreat.
Guan Hai had already noticed Xue Rengui, and seeing this, he was furious and immediately urged his horse to fight.
The two of them urged their warhorses to move at an extremely fast speed. When they were almost there, Xue Rengui brandished his Heavenly Halberd and slashed through the night sky, bringing with it a powerful sonic boom as he blasted it towards Guan Hai!
Guan Hai was originally filled with confidence. However, at this moment, his confidence collapsed. After hearing the terrifying whistling sound of the halberd, his heart trembled. However, at this moment, the two of them were too close. He had no way to dodge and could only use his full strength to block!
Bang!
The two weapons collided, and Guan Hai's spear was instantly broken by Xue Rengui's halberd. His entire body was enveloped by an incomparably powerful force, and he was sent flying off the horse's back.
Although Guan Hai did not fall to his death after falling into a pile of people, the huge force had directly fractured his arms. Even the Qi that he had been holding in his dantian had been scattered by the huge force. His internal organs seemed to have been crushed by the huge force, and he vomited blood after falling to the ground.
When Xue Rengui saw this, he immediately came to take Guan Hai's life.
However, Guan Hai had quite a reputation in the Yellow Turban army. Countless bandits rushed over to cover his retreat and were willing to die.
The cavalrymen in front were still reaping the lives of the Yellow Turban bandits. Guan Hai's 50,000 soldiers had only 5,000 left. Although they were very close to the city gate, it was as if they were so close that they were worlds apart. It was difficult to approach.
Zhang Liang had been looking at the corpse of his second brother, Zhang Bao, and General Guan Hai for a long time.
After thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and led all the troops in the city out. He was determined to save these two people.
Xue Rengui saw that things could not be done and decisively led his troops to retreat.
Yang Yu watched the battle from behind. When he saw the end, he couldn't help but sigh."In the hearts of these Guangzong bandits, Zhang Jiao and his brothers are like gods and ghosts. They worship them very much. In order to protect these people, those ordinary Yellow Turban bandits are willing to sacrifice their lives to protect them!”
"Zhang Jiao has been preaching for many years, after all. He has indeed won many believers." Huangfu Song nodded. Brother, how do you think we should break the current situation? It was too late to chase after them now. Once the bandits entered the city, they would probably never come out again. This Guangzong City would probably be difficult to break through.”
Just as everyone was pondering, Xue Rengui returned with his troops. He even brought back the scaling ladder with Zhang Bao's corpse.
"Zhang Bao's body is still here?" Yang Yu's eyes lit up.”
Xue Rengui looked ashamed." We couldn't kill all the enemies, but we didn't dare to lose Zhang Bao's body."”
Yang Yu immediately laughed." It's fine. The Yellow Turban bandits lost 90% of their lives just now. It's already a big profit." Now that he had Zhang Bao's body, he didn't have to worry about the Zhang brothers coming out again!”
So Yang Yu ordered the troops to gather and reorganize.
After Zhang Liang withdrew his troops, Guangzong rushed in to see Zhang Jiao.
Zhang Jiao saw him come back and asked anxiously,"Third brother, what happened? Hurry up and tell me, where is Second Brother's corpse? Why didn't you bring him here?"
Zhang Liang's expression changed. Finally, he let out a long sigh."There is indeed an ambush outside. Almost all of Guan Hai's fifty thousand soldiers died, and Guan Hai himself was heavily injured and unconscious. Second brother's corpse…was taken away by a cavalry. I was afraid that the city gate would fall, so I hurriedly rescued Guan Hai and didn't dare to pursue him.”
"Lost soldiers and generals! He had yet to snatch back his second brother's corpse! I told you this was a trick, this was a trick! Puff!"
Zhang Jiao was so angry that his entire body trembled. He suddenly spat out another mouthful of blood and fell onto the bed.
Zhang Ning walked out from behind. She was very unhappy that Zhang Liang had angered her father to the point of vomiting blood. Tears rolled down her beautiful eyes, but she could not say a word.
When Zhang Liang saw this, he felt ashamed and angry, and he could only leave.
At this time, the Yellow Turban soldiers guarding the city reported again,""The soldiers outside pushed out the corpse of General Di Gong and splashed it with dung.”
Zhang Liang was fuming with anger when he heard that. When he thought of Zhang Jiao's disappointed look, Zhang Liang felt uncomfortable.
"I must prove myself. I must take back second brother's corpse. I will not let big brother down!”
So Zhang Liang immediately summoned a few Yellow Turban generals for a meeting.
"The Imperial Court killed my Earth Duke General and now, they are humiliating his corpse outside the city. If we can't snatch his corpse back, how can we face the world? I'm determined to lead the troops to attack tomorrow night. I'll take advantage of the moment when the soldiers have won and are relaxed to catch them off guard. I'll save General Earth Duke and avenge my previous humiliation! Everyone, can you help me?"
"We will do our best to help!" The generals immediately responded.”
Thus, everyone immediately went down to prepare. The 200,000-strong army in the city was ready.
Zhang Ning knew about the commotion very quickly, but Zhang Liang avoided her. Zhang Ning couldn't talk to him, and Zhang Jiao was in a coma. He couldn't wake up all day. They could only wait until midnight when Zhang Liang opened the city gate and led 200,000 soldiers out!
However, Zhang Liang's actions were within Yang Yu's expectations.
As soon as the city gates of Guangzong opened, a soldier reported to Yang Yu.
"I poured dung on Zhang Bao and predicted that Zhang Liang would definitely fight, but I didn't expect him to come so quickly! Send my order, all troops face the enemy. We must defeat them tonight!”
Thus, the horns of the army sounded, and the war drums beat. The various armies lit up their torches and came out to welcome them.
Zhang Liang saw that the other side was prepared and their sneak attack had failed, so he angrily led his troops to the front to confront the soldiers.
"It was you who ordered the humiliation of my brother's corpse?”Zhang Liang pointed at Yang Yu and asked loudly.
"Not bad! You are Zhang Liang? You led a large army out of the city in the middle of the night to join me?”Yang Yu deliberately provoked Zhang Liang.
As expected, Zhang Liang was furious. He actually rode his horse and directly charged over!
