Chapter [258] Yuan Shao's Last Card
After chopping down the Youzhou cavalry in front of him with a halberd, Lu Bu was also slightly out of breath.
In order to get rid of the Youzhou cavalry in front of him as soon as possible, and free up his hands to support the main battlefield, Lu Bu also has all the firepower, and has no intention of holding back his strength, and his physical strength is exhausted relatively quickly
However, the effect was also very significant. Under the leadership of Lu Bu, the cavalry of the Qin Army had already killed the cavalry of Youzhou.
The cavalry of the Qin Army surrounded these Youzhou cavalry in groups, and did not give the Youzhou cavalry any chance to break through.
"Shoot!" Lu Bu ordered blankly.
The cavalry of the Qin Army took out their bows and arrows one after another, and killed the Youzhou cavalry in the encirclement.
"Fight back!" Yuan Xi was also not to be outdone.
But the cavalry of the Qin army surrounded and shot the cavalry of Youzhou from all directions at 360 degrees, and the cavalry of Youzhou could only attack a little around.
Moreover, there are still half of the cavalry of the Qin army on the field at this time, and there are very few cavalry of Youzhou.
After several waves of shooting, the Youzhou cavalry army surrounded by the circle was wiped out.
Lu Bu looked around the battlefield and found that the cavalry of the Qin Army also suffered a lot of losses. In order to quickly kill all the cavalry of Youzhou, the cavalry of the Qin Army also paid a huge price with more than half of the casualties.
This is the case with cavalry combat. As long as the opponent makes up his mind to smash to death, it will inevitably cause huge damage.
There are as many Youzhou cavalry as the Qin cavalry. In this case, the Youzhou cavalry can kill many Qin cavalry even if they run to death.
To solve the opponent in such a short time and achieve a one-for-two record, the performance of the Qin Army cavalry is already very good.
"Continue to fight." Lu Bu did not hesitate at all.
The war is far from over. Now that the opponent's cavalry has been eliminated, it is necessary to use the advantages of one's own cavalry to help the main battlefield expand its advantages, so as to obtain the final victory of the war.
On the main battlefield, the four phalanxes are constantly fighting. The two infantry phalanxes of the Qin Army have 10,000 more soldiers than the opponent, so they can gain the upper hand. It is not available at present, and the difference in strength of 10,000 troops is not too obvious.
Only when the battle is exhausted and the enemy cannot maintain the phalanx, can the superiority of the troops be fully revealed.
"Target, the enemy's rear, charge!"
After the remaining 10,000 cavalry of the Qin Army adjusted their positions, Lu Bu immediately issued a military order, targeting the 30,000 reinforcements from Yecheng.
At this moment, the 30,000 reinforcements are entangled with the 40,000 Qin army. As long as they lead 10,000 cavalry to the enemy's rear, Lu Bu is confident that he can deal with the main party within 25 minutes.
When there is a stalemate on the battlefield, the enemy and us may be in a stalemate for a day and it is difficult to tell the outcome.
But once the balance of war tilts, there will be a situation where the army is defeated like a mountain.
"Boom!!!"
The 10,000 cavalry of the Qin Army, led by Lu Bu, charged again and went straight to the rear of the 30,000 reinforcements.
"Third Young Master, Second Young Master can't stand it anymore, the Qin army is coming towards our rear." Shen Peijing lied.
"Second Brother!" Yuan Shang turned around to look, but where could he see Yuan Xi's figure, it was just a corpse lying on the ground at this moment.
"Stop these Qin army bastards! Avenge the second brother and buy time for Ah Weng!" Yuan Shang gritted his teeth.
However, wars will never be shifted by personal will, even if Yuan Shang's heart is full of hatred at the moment, it will not have the slightest impact on the battle situation.
When 10,000 Qin cavalry collided with the rear of 30,000 reinforcements, the superiority of the cavalry was finally fully revealed.
Cavalry does not seem to have much advantage over cavalry.
And when the cavalry is against the infantry, it is like a broken bamboo.
In particular, the 30,000 reinforcements were restrained by 40,000 Qin infantry from the front, and the defense was empty in the rear. They were directly attacked by 10,000 cavalry, and the formation exploded in an instant.
The frontal 40,000 Qin army also seized the opportunity and stepped up their offensive.
The rear is unstable, and the people in front will also be affected. Under the front and rear attacks of the Qin army, the 30,000 reinforcements led by Yuan Shang only lasted for a stick of incense, and the defense line collapsed completely.
But I have to say that Yuan Jun's resilience is indeed very strong, perhaps because he was beaten to the front of his house by Qin Jun, or maybe this is Yuan Shao's bottom-line elite.
Whether it was the Youzhou cavalry led by Yuan Xi before or the 30,000 infantry led by Yuan Shang, even after the collapse of the front line, Yuan Jun soldiers still did not flee, and they still fought to the death and fought stubbornly in a state of stragglers.
However, this state of stragglers is just delaying time.
The fight between the big armies is a group battle of the army formation. Once the front line is killed and collapsed, it becomes a sporadic small group, which will be gathered and wiped out.
Lu Bu was sitting on the red rabbit horse. At this moment, he had put away his green sword, and held a two-foot-long square sky painting halberd in both hands.
To deal with cavalry with a loose formation, it is more appropriate to fight with both hands at the same time.
But when dealing with crowded pawns, the two-foot-long Fang Tian painted halberd can sweep out a large vacuum every time it is swung.
Lu Bu's killing efficiency is comparable to a combine harvester in a wheat field.
"Third Young Master, run away!" Shen Pei said.
"Hehe." Yuan Shang laughed miserably, "Where are you going to escape? The second brother died in battle, and I'm almost there. I'm afraid it will be Ah Weng's turn..."
The judge was silent when he heard the words. Now that the Qin army has reached Hebei, there is indeed no way to escape.
What's more, at this moment, being flanked by the Qin army back and forth, there is no chance of escape at all.
"Since we can't leave, let's fight to the end!" Shen Pei said ruthlessly: "Kill one to pay no loss, kill two to earn!"
The situation has come to the present, even the counselor, the judge, took out his sword and started to fight desperately, and Yuan Shang was fighting on the front line with a sword.
"Lu Bu dog thief! I will fight you!"
Hearing this, Lu Bu suddenly turned his head, followed the reputation with his cold eyes, and saw a scribe rushing towards him with a sword.
Without even thinking about it, Lu Bu handed out a flat stab, stabbing the scribe to death, and then flew the body out.
Shen Pei died very quickly, and Lu Bu's halberd tore his chest to pieces.
At this time, Lu Bu has already killed red eyes, the murderous aura on his body is as real as it is, his body is covered in blood, his eyes are cold, his body keeps killing enemies like a machine, and he doesn't care who the opponent is.
Clamping the horse's belly with both legs, he manipulated the red rabbit to run directly in front of Yuan Shang, and Lu Bu beheaded the leader with the most gorgeous armor without asking the other party's identity.
As Yuan Shang and Shen Pei died in battle one after another, the 30,000 Yuan Jun also died at this moment.
After another cup of tea, all 30,000 Yuan troops were killed, and Lu Bu again suffered a lot of casualties.
The cavalry is okay, this time because they came in from the rear, they only lost more than a thousand people, and there are still about 9,000 cavalry at this moment.
The 40,000 Qin army that resisted the 30,000 Yuan army lost more than 10,000, and there are still 30,000 people left at this moment.
The worst part was the main battlefield, where 60,000 Qin troops fought against 50,000 Yuan-Cao allied forces, and the two sides played a one-to-one battle loss ratio.
At this moment, the Qin army has 30,000 left, while the Yuan-Cao coalition army has 20,000 left.
Lu Bu rectified a little, and brought 9,000 cavalry and 30,000 Qin troops into the main battlefield.
The situation on the scene immediately changed drastically. The 60,000 Qin army plus 9,000 cavalry surrounded the Yuan-Cao coalition army with only 20,000 remaining.
"Yuan Benchu! Where's your second hand? Could it be that someone lied to Naigong?!" Cao Cao looked at the encircling Qin army, and couldn't help but burst into words.
The main forces of the Qin army encircled and came, and the Yuan-Cao coalition army instantly became precarious. At this moment, it shrank into a circular formation, but the front line also became precarious, and there was a possibility of being killed and collapsed at any time.
Especially Lu Bu200 led the cavalry to charge continuously, and Dianwei Xu Chu and Cao Xiahou worked hard to block Lu Bu.
"Wait! It will definitely come. If you hold on, there is still hope!" Yuan Shao also risked his life, and personally took out a knife to go into battle to boost morale.
Under the encirclement and suppression by the Qin army, the number of Yuan-Cao coalition forces began to drop sharply.
When Lu Bu thought that the war was finally coming to an end, another accident occurred.
From the east, a mighty army came all the way.
Lu Bu immediately turned his head to look, couldn't help shrinking his pupils, the number of opponents was too much, at least 50%!
If 50,000 people were placed in the past, Lu Bu would not take them seriously at all, but if they appeared at this juncture, it would be very fatal. The Qin army's military advantage would disappear, and it would even fall into a military disadvantage.
"Hahaha! Heaven will not kill me!" Yuan Shao couldn't help laughing when he saw the situation in the east, "My son, Yuan Tan, did not disappoint his father after all."
The army along the way was exactly Yuan Tan who was attacking the Central Plains with Yuan Shao, and 50,000 troops attacked Cao Cao from the direction of Qingzhou.
It's a pity that a fire in Wuchao ruined Yuan Shao's good situation. The main force's army was short of food and grass, and Yuan Tan's way of partial division naturally lost its meaning. no.
Yuan Shao, who owns four states and intends to annex the world, expanded his army frantically during this period of time, no one knows exactly how many troops there are.
In history, Yuan Shao fled back to Hebei after losing the battle of Guandu, but Cao Cao still had nothing to do with Yuan Shao.
Especially after Yuan Shao's death, it took four or five years before Cao Cao finally took Hebei.
This is still the situation where the three Yuan brothers have been fighting in the nest and consuming each other's strength. If the three Yuan brothers can unite as one, Cao Cao still cannot win Hebei.
From this, it can be seen how solid Yuan Shao's strength is.
Seeing Yuan Tan attacking with an army of 50,000, Lu Bu took a deep breath, knowing that this time he was really going to die.
