Chapter 442 Comprehensive Counterattack
Seeing his cavalry being wiped out by the enemy like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, Sili no longer ignored Zhang Yan's orders. While ordering Ming Jin to withdraw the troops, he forced the Chinese army's personal soldiers to set up Zhang Yan, who looked like a madman. Under the escort of other generals, they rushed towards the direction of the Baibo army in the north, not even returning to the camp in the northeast direction. Facing the current situation, Sili knew very well that he and his party had been defeated, and the defeat was crushing. Now there were ten thousand cavalry in the imperial court, but the only one thousand cavalry of the yellow scarf soldiers had disappeared, and one hundred thousand soldiers had disappeared. It is estimated that no more than 10,000 horses can return to Montenegro. However, he can't care so much now, it's enough to save his life now, as for the others, let's live in peace.
When Sili guarded Zhang Yan and fled all the way, Zhang Baiqi and other generals at the top of the city were fighting fiercely. Seeing that the resistance at the top of the city had not weakened at all, Zhang Baiqi also noticed something unusual and was about to move in another direction When Huang Long and Zuo Xiao, who were attacking the top of the city, approached to discuss what to do, the Chinese army behind them heard the sound of rushing gold. Zhang Baiqi looked back and just saw three thousand cavalrymen inserting a red-hot sharp knife into the frozen lard. The frozen lard melted quickly, and the sharp knife penetrated to the end without any resistance. Thousands of wounded yellow turban soldiers couldn't even stop the tiger and cardinal cavalry for a while. Three thousand cavalry passed through the middle of the yellow turban soldiers, and then rushed towards the 30,000 yellow turban soldiers below the city. At this time, Zhang Yan and his party People have run a distance of a mile or two.
"No, retreat!" Zhang Bai immediately realized the danger, and yelled at the dozens of guards around him. He turned around and left without stopping at all. There were still soldiers climbing up the siege ladder, so they jumped onto the ladder, kicked the yellow scarf soldier down the ladder, and then quickly slid down the ladder. A group of his personal soldiers also withdrew from the top of the city, and then followed Zhang Baiqi all the way to the north along the moat. Several generals of the Yellow Turban Army participated in the battle at the top of the city, and most of them reacted, and quickly led their personal guards to withdraw from the top of the city, and then quickly fled to the north. However, some generals were either killed or captured because they could not withdraw from the battle for a while.
When Hua Xiong's army appeared on the battlefield wàiwéi, the crowd at the top of the city was filled with dust in the distance. When the sound of the Yellow Turban Army's golden cry sounded, Huang Zhong knew that the battle was coming to an end. At the moment when the Yellow Turban Army was fālèng at the head of the city, Huang Zhong drew out his long knife and yelled at the city wall: "Soldiers! , the reinforcements have arrived, the enemy general has fled, let me kill the enemy!"
"Drink..."
"kill..."
"The reinforcements are here, kill them..."
Contrary to the frustration of the morale of the Yellow Turban Army, the morale of the soldiers at the top of the city rose instantly. The battle that was still stalemate just now quickly became the Luoyang defenders occupying the upper peak, and the Yellow Turban Army retreated steadily under the pressure of the Luoyang Army. With the escape of several yellow turban generals, more and more yellow turban soldiers joined the fleeing team. Unfortunately, the siege ladder was full of yellow turban soldiers who were climbing up. It's all stuck there. As time went by, the Yellow Turban soldiers at the head of the city were gradually divided and surrounded by the Luoyang Army. Seeing that they had no way out, some Yellow Turban soldiers quickly threw away their weapons and surrendered.
Seeing that the top of the city was completely under his control, Huang Zhong quickly ordered: "Send the order, the enemy chieftain has fled, and those who surrender will not die!"
"The general has an order, the enemy chieftain has fled, and those who surrender will not die!"
"The general has an order, those who surrender will not die!"
"The descendant will not die!"
Soon, the shouts of "Survivors will not die" sounded from all over the city wall. More and more Yellow Turban soldiers above the city wall chose to surrender, but many Yellow Turban soldiers below the city wall fled in all directions. Seeing this, Huang Zhong quickly ordered: "The infantry will take the prisoners, open the city gate, and the cavalry will go out to wipe out the enemy!"
"Boom"
A moment later, with the opening of the city gate, Zhao Yu led the cavalry who were still able to fight out of the city to encircle and wipe out the Yellow Turban Army.
At the same time, Huang Zhong made people ignite the beacon signal for the whole army to counterattack.
The 30,000 soldiers under the city had been rushed by the rout soldiers driven by the 3,000 tiger and cardinal cavalry. No one noticed even the opening of the east gate's city wall, but the more than 3,000 cavalry coming out of the city made the yellow turban rout even more chaotic, and people were constantly being squeezed into the moat from the passage filled in by the moat. The yellow turban routs who were lucky enough to run outside the moat had to face the oncoming 3,000 tiger and cardinal cavalry. Soon, some yellow turban routs who had nowhere to go dropped their weapons and surrendered. After someone took the lead, more and more yellow turban soldiers Join the ranks of surrender, but there are also a lot of routs. When the cavalry has not yet closed the encirclement, they break out, then run wildly, and escape.
Seeing that all the captives at the head of the city had been guarded, Huang Zhong sent thousands of soldiers out of the city to assist the cavalry in gathering the captives. After the cavalry handed over the captives to the infantry who came to meet them, they continued to drive the rout soldiers towards the Baibo army in the northern city. direction.
Seeing that all the yellow turban soldiers on the top and bottom of the city wall have been captured, the rest are running northward and fleeing. I don't know who shouted the first sentence at the top of the city: "We have won!"
Immediately afterwards, more and more soldiers joined the cheering ranks.
On the city wall, Huangfu Chaobo sat slumped on the crenel with no image, his body was covered with blood, and he threw the ring knife in his hand at the top of the city. Zhao Zilong also sat slumped opposite him, and the two looked at each other and laughed .
Looking at the groups of captives on the city wall, Huangfu Chaobo finally breathed a sigh of relief, and finally held it. Today is the most dangerous time, and Huangfu Chaobo feels that it is very likely that he will not be able to hold it. Fortunately, he finally succeeded, but In the end, the one thousand reinforcements from the Zilong Society plus the people who were already on the city wall left less than two hundred people, and all of them had only a layer of blood left. This is only the situation on the east wall, and there is nothing wrong with the south, but the losses of the Zilong Club in the north and west are estimated not to be small. Thinking of this, Huangfu Chaobo saluted Zhao Zilong and said: "Brother Zilong, thank you Already!"
"Hahaha... It's cool, I finally had a fun battle, and I have to thank you, if it weren't for you, we really wouldn't be able to participate in this kind of battle." Zhao Zilong laughed;
"Okay, let's not talk about these things. After everything settles down here, your alliance will choose a county in Luoyang. Then, I will hand over that county to you." Huangfu Chaobo knew that he was comforting himself , as a player alliance, after paying such a high price, Zhao Zilong must need genuine things to appease the players under him. After thinking about it, Huangfu Chaobo said directly;
