At this time Gao Cheng suddenly thought that the general who had followed Gongsun Kang to attack You Beiping at first, after learning that Changli was in a hurry, did not actively ask for battle as before. It must be that they had already experienced the power of this cavalry and did not dare to fight with it. .
"Retreat!" Gao Cheng reluctantly issued an order to retreat. Looking at the war situation in front of him, if the Liaodong Army did not retreat, it would be a complete defeat for Youzhou Army.
The soldiers of the Liaodong Army who had long been suppressed for the Lieyang Bowrider were also relieved after they received the order. The reason why they were struggling to support them was that they were waiting for the command from the main general. Many soldiers took advantage of the darkness to flee towards the direction of Liaodong. .
Gao Cheng led his soldiers to flee the battlefield in embarrassment, but Huang Zhong did not burn the grain and grass as he planned before. There were more than 30,000 people in his army.
"General, do you want to pursue it?" Pound asked.
Looking at Pound with blood on his face, Huang Zhong nodded slightly. He also heard about Pound. He was able to make Lu Bu spend such a great effort to dig from Ma Teng to the Bingzhou Army. Pound is also extraordinary. Ability, and what Lu Bu had to do was to let Pound gradually develop a sense of belonging to the Union State Army.
How could Huang Zhong fail to understand Lu Bu's intentions? He also admired a courageous and strategic leader like Pound.
"Ling Ming, our soldiers are also tired, so let these people return to Liaodong." Huang Zhongdao.
Pound's eyes lit up. The most feared death of the enemy was the unknown death, which made them worry about the arrival of the enemy all the time. Once the reinforcements of the Liaodong Army returned to Xiangping, what kind of shock would it bring? Know.
"The general is wise." Pound clasped his fist.
"Ling Ming led the cavalry to count the grain, grass, and the whole weight, and prepare to return to the army. The soldiers who died in the battle will be buried." Huang Zhongdao.
Pound suddenly thought of the two cavalry soldiers who had died for him before. The joy of victory was diminished. He originally thought that he had been accustomed to life and death after fighting on the battlefield for many years, but when the two cavalry soldiers rushed forward without hesitation When he blocked the arrow, Pound felt his heart was gripped tightly.
"What's wrong with Ling Ming?" Huang Zhong asked when Pound looked wrong.
"Let's go to the humble position." Pound replied and walked away quickly.
A cavalryman stepped forward and recounted what happened that night in detail.
Huang Zhong nodded slightly. After this incident, Pound and Lieyang Archer became inextricably related.
In this battle, the Lieyang Archers killed more than 1,000 enemy troops and captured hundreds of people. The number of Liaodong Army who escaped was only two thousand at most, and the Lieyang Archers lost only more than 200 people before and after. If such a record is passed Going out was enough to shock everyone. The cavalry of the Liaodong Army also had stirrups to help each other, but the encounter after facing the Lieyang archer was so miserable.
After Huang Zhong heard about the loss, his expression was not so relaxed. Although the requirements for the cavalry under his command were extremely strict, Huang Zhong had a deep affection for the Lieyang archer. He devoted himself to every cavalry. It's hard work.
Gao Cheng led more than two thousand remnants of the defeated generals and fled in embarrassment in the direction they came. At this time, the soldiers under his command looked in a panic, completely devoid of the high fighting spirit when they left Xiang. Fortunately, the counties along the way provided food and grass and were able to return. In the city of Xiangping, especially on the way to retreat, you must always guard against the enemy.
When Gongsun Du learned that the five thousand reinforcements had not arrived in Changli, he had already lost, and his expression was even more old, even with the help of the maid, it was a little shaky.
"Majesty, Master Liu is back." A general shouted with excitement.
Gongsun Du, who was originally worried, had a look of hope in his eyes. Liu Tai went to Jizhou for help. It can be said that it is related to the survival of Liaodong. If Yuan Shao can get the support of Yuan Shao on the Perak car, he will have a greater chance of winning. .
"Quickly pass Liu Tai in." Gongsun Du said.
When Liu Tai walked into the hall, he also felt the dignity of the atmosphere. When he saw the elevation of blood on the armor, he was shocked.
"Meeting the king, his subordinates were fortunate enough to live up to their lives. Yehou promised to support one hundred bed crossbows in Liaodong and informed him of the method of making bed crossbows." Liu Tai arched his hands.
Gongsun Du kept coughing when he heard the words. The maid hurriedly passed the silk cloth. After a violent cough, dots of red appeared on the silk cloth. Gongsun Du glared at the maid on the side, put the silk cloth away, and laughed loudly. : "If you can hold Liaodong this time, Master Liu will have contributed."
"This is what the subordinates should do." Liu Tai said.
After retiring everyone, Gongsun Duyu said earnestly: "General Gao Cheng led the five thousand Liaodong army to Changli, and did not want to encounter the cavalry under Jinhou's army on the way. The five thousand soldiers lost nearly 3,000 people, and all the food and grass were the enemy's income. "Speaking of this, Gongsundu couldn't hide his anger in his expression.
"Majesty, at this moment, Liaodong is in danger. It is the occasion of employment. General Elevation has always been calm. If he is severely punished, he may cause discussions among lieutenants." Liu Taidao, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Normal Elevation and Liu Family Walked very close.
"Hmph, if the defeated general is not severely punished, how to convince the soldiers of the three services?" Gongsun Du coldly snorted, exuding the power of a veteran on the battlefield.
Liu Tai was silent for a moment and said, "Majesty, under the command of the Marquis of Jin, you can't be stubborn. At this time, the defenders in Changli City are already in danger. Don't order them to retreat to Xiangping." He knew that Gongsundu was in anger at this time, and he would try to persuade him in the future. that is.
Gongsun Du was unwilling to show his unwillingness. He had devoted a lot of effort to seize the country of Liaodong. He didn't expect to give up in less than one month.
"My lord, my lord is still in Changli City." Liu Tai reminded.
Gongsundu seemed to have made a lot of determination, "Tell the defenders in Changli City that if Changli cannot defend, they will retreat to Xiangping, but the food and grass in the city are all burned and cannot be left to the Youzhou Army."
As a barrier against Youzhou in Liaodong, Changli City has sufficient food and grass. Even if there are tens of thousands of defenders in the city, it is enough for half a year.
"Here." Liu Tai arched his hands.
"When will the bed crossbow promised by Yehou arrive in Liaodong?" Gongsun Du asked.
"No more than half a month at the latest."
"This king is very grateful for Yehou to treat Liaodong in this way." Gongsun Du said, if Xiangping had the protection of a crossbow, it would be much easier to defend Xiangping.
"Majesty, Yehou once said that the method of making hundreds of bed crossbows and bed crossbows requires Liaodong to replace it with the excellent armor of the fifty thousand army. The subordinates boldly agreed."
The corners of Gongsundu’s mouth twitched a few times. Even Liaodong would have to pay a high price for the armor and blades needed by the fifty thousand army. Not bad." In fact, he wanted to blame Liu Tai very much. That was what the fifty thousand army needed.
