Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 222: Big defeat and loss

Yuan Shao of the Chinese Army was reassured after receiving the news. The Jizhou Army moved into action and began to surround the Baima Yicong. They would not allow any of the Baima Yicongs to escape from the battlefield. No matter how high the price was, the Baima Yicongs must be defeated.

The halberd is here. At this point, Yuan Shao's will is very firm.

The loss of Baima Yicong did not wake up Gongsun Zan from his anger. Baima Yicong was the pride of the Youzhou army and was invincible. How could he be defeated by the infantry?

"Sir, the White Horse Yi Cong has lost more than 800 people." Zhao Yun reminded, facing the closely protected first dead soldiers in front of him, he also felt a sense of powerlessness.

"White horse Yi Cong, when have you ever been afraid!" Gongsun Zan said angrily: "Kill! Kill all these Jizhou troops!"

Ju Yi kept issuing short and effective orders, and a man named Baima Yicong fell under the crossbow arrows of the first dead soldier. By the time Gongsun Zan woke up from his anger, Baima Yicong had already lost half of his body.

However, their rear has been cut off by the Jizhou Army. Although Guan Jing, who was guarding the central army, ordered his soldiers to charge, the Jizhou Army refused to retreat.

Faced with such a situation, Zhao Yun was also a little helpless. These heavily armored infantry made it difficult for people to start. He had deep feelings for Baima Yicong. When he followed Lu Bu in the battle against Xianbei, Baima Yicong also accompanied him.

The spear in his hand was replaced by a long bow, and the arrows were like shooting stars.

A pikeman fell to the ground helplessly. The arrow shot from the gap was hard to guard against and hit his face exposed in the air directly. He fell to the ground unwillingly.

Under the collision of the war horses, the ones who got the most casualties were the shield soldiers defending behind the shield. They relied on their flesh and blood to defend and refused to retreat. Many shield soldiers were killed alive by the collision force of the war horses. Whenever there was a shield soldier,

If there is a gap in the army, there will always be soldiers to replenish it as soon as possible, without giving Baima Yicong a chance to break through the defense line.

Gongsun Zan's eyes were red, and the heavy price made him gradually wake up from his anger. However, if the Baima Yicong retreated, the infantry on the opposite side would definitely follow closely. The Jizhou Army would not let them leave the battlefield so easily.

"General Zhao, you are highly skilled in martial arts. Please protect the lord and retreat quickly." Yan Gang, whose face was covered with blood, said anxiously.

Zhao Yun nodded. The situation on the field could no longer be changed by one person. He believed that even if Bingzhou's flying cavalry faced such a team, they could only retreat. The only blame for everything was that Baima Yicong underestimated the enemy.

If we had just retreated when we realized something was wrong, the losses would not have been so great.

Yan Gang led hundreds of white horses to hold back the advancing soldiers, while Zhao Yun led the remaining cavalry to charge against the Jizhou army behind him.

His shirt was stained with blood, and Zhao Yun could no longer remember how many Jizhou Army soldiers had died. He wanted to take Gongsun Zan away from here.

Yan Gang looked at Gongsun Zan who was getting further and further away, and his tense expression relaxed. At this time, there were only about a hundred cavalry left around him.

"White Horse Yi Cong, kill!" Yan Gang shouted.

In the past, it was such an order that made Baima Yicong famous and made the Wuhuan people frightened. However, at this time, they could only launch a tragic attack in the face of the dead soldiers.

After leading Gongsun Zan out of the siege, only a few dozen Baima Yi Cong were left beside Zhao Yun. Such losses had never happened to Baima Yi Cong.

When Yuan Shao heard the news, he was overjoyed and ordered the entire army to attack. The sound of war drums became more intense. The Jizhou army came in overwhelming numbers. The news of the defeat of Baima Yicong also spread among the Jizhou army.

Gongsun Zan, who was escorted by Zhao Yun and returned to the army, was ashen-faced. He seemed to have aged ten years in an instant. The Baima Yi Cong army was almost wiped out, which made him feel depressed.

"Lord, the situation is unclear, we should retreat." Guan Jing advised. He understood the position of Baima Yicong in Gongsun Zan's heart. Even if the army was completely destroyed, as long as Baima Yicong was there, there would still be hope of victory. But there was no hope of victory anymore.

Baima Yicong, let alone the Jizhou Army, the Wuhuan people led by Yan Rou were not something that the Youzhou Army could deal with.

"Withdraw!" Gongsun Zan ordered in a low voice.

After Baima Yicong was eliminated, the morale of the Jizhou army was high, but the morale of the Youzhou army was low. They had no formation to speak of when they retreated. They trampled on each other and suffered countless losses.

After returning to the city, Gongsun Zan kept sighing and felt extremely depressed. The White Horse Yi Cong was all his efforts, and it was not easy to reorganize the White Horse Yi Cong.

"Lord, although the Baima Yi Cong is lost, there are still more than 40,000 soldiers and horses in Youzhou. The city of Ji County is high and the pond is deep. Our army only needs to stick to Ji County. The Jizhou army has come all the way. If things go on like this, there will definitely be insufficient food and grass and the army will inevitably withdraw."

Yu advised.

"Send the order to Tian Kai to withdraw the troops." Gongsun Zan said. He knew that the situation in Youzhou was getting worse with the loss of Baima Yicong. Although Tian Yu's analysis was very good, it did not mention the key points. Defending Jixian was not a problem, but

What should we do if there is insufficient food and grass in the city? If there is a shortage of food and grass, the army will inevitably collapse.

"Lord, the Bingzhou Army is heading up the valley right now. Why not send someone to ask for help from the Bingzhou Army." What Tian Yu felt from Gongsun Zan's words was that the confident general in the past had lost his fighting spirit.

Gongsun Zan's eyes lit up. The Bingzhou Army was in Shanggu County. If Lu Bu was willing to take action, coupled with the soldiers and horses in the city, it might not be impossible to defeat the Jizhou Army. As long as Youzhou was stabilized, he would still have a chance.

Tian Yu stepped forward and whispered: "My lord, General Zhao has good relations with the Marquis of Jin, so it would be more appropriate to send General Zhao to Shanggu for help."

Gongsun Zan hesitated for a moment and turned his attention to Zhao Yun: "General Zhao, I will leave it to you to ask for help from the Bingzhou army. This matter is related to the safety of Youzhou. If the general can let Bingzhou Mu relieve the crisis in Youzhou,

, the general is Youzhou’s benefactor.”

Zhao Yun frowned slightly, but Gongsun Zan's words were a bit serious. He was just a general under Gongsun Zan. It was reasonable for Gongsun Zan to send him to the Bingzhou Army to ask for help. Such a polite tone clearly reflected Gongsun Zan's awareness.

What arrived.

"This is a matter of humble duty." Zhao Yun said, cupping his fists.

Not only Gongsun Zan and Tian Yu could tell, but also the generals in Gongsun Zan's army could guess that Zhao Yun and Lu Bu had a good relationship. When Lu Bu raided Xianbei, Zhao Yun even wanted to go to the rescue alone. It is conceivable that Zhao Yun was just confused by some of the authorities.

That’s all.

Although Gongsun Zan wanted to keep Zhao Yun in the army, everyone had their own ambitions. Although Zhao Yun worked under him, he never recognized his master. In addition, the loss of Baima's loyal followers also made Gongsun Zan a little discouraged. For many years

His hard work was defeated by the Jizhou Army's first dead soldiers, and even Yan Gang died in the hands of the Jizhou Army.
