Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

At this time, Gao Cheng suddenly thought that the generals who followed Gongsun Kang to attack Youbeiping did not actively ask for battle as before after learning that Changli was in danger. Presumably they had already realized the power of this cavalry and did not dare to fight with it.

.

"Retreat!" Gao Cheng reluctantly issued the order to retreat. Looking at the war situation in front of him, if the Liaodong Army did not retreat, it would probably be completely defeated by the Youzhou Army.

The officers and soldiers of the Liaodong Army who had been suppressed by the Lieyang Archers for a long time were relieved after receiving the order. The reason why they held on so hard was to wait for the order from the general. Many soldiers had already taken advantage of the darkness to escape in the direction of Liaodong.

.

Gao Cheng led his soldiers to flee the battlefield in embarrassment, but Huang Zhong did not burn the food and baggage as planned before. There were more than 30,000 troops in his own army.

"General, do you want to pursue us?" Pound stepped forward and asked.

Looking at Pang De whose face was covered with blood, Huang Zhong nodded slightly. He had also heard about Pang De. To be able to make Lu Bu spend so much effort to recruit him from Ma Teng's subordinates to the Bingzhou Army, Pang De also had extraordinary qualities.

skills, and what Lu Bu had to do was to make Pound gradually develop a sense of belonging to the Bingzhou Army.

How could Huang Zhong not understand Lu Bu's intentions? He also admired a brave and resourceful general like Pound very much.

"Ling Ming, our officers and soldiers are also tired. It would be good to let these people return to Liaodong." Huang Zhong said.

Pang De's eyes lit up. What frightened the enemy the most was the unknown death, which made them no longer worry about the enemy's arrival. Once the reinforcements of the Liaodong Army returned to Xiangping, you can imagine what kind of shock it would bring.

Know.

"The general is wise," Pang De said, cupping his fists.

"Let Ming lead the cavalry to count the food and baggage and prepare to return to the army. The soldiers who died in the battle will be buried with honors." Huang Zhong said.

Pound suddenly thought of the two cavalrymen who had died for him before, and the joy of victory could not help but be diluted a little. He originally thought that he had been used to seeing life and death after fighting on the battlefield for many years, but when he saw the two cavalrymen, he rushed forward without hesitation.

When he blocked the arrow, Pang De felt his heart being squeezed tightly.

"What's wrong with Ling Ming?" Huang Zhong asked when he saw that Pang De looked wrong.

"I'll go right away." Pang De didn't answer the question and left quickly.

A cavalryman came forward and described in detail what happened that night.

Huang Zhong nodded slightly. After this incident, Pound and the Lieyang Archers were inextricably linked.

In this battle, the Lieyang Archers killed more than a thousand enemy troops and captured hundreds of people. The number of Liaodong troops who escaped was only 2,000 at most, and the losses of the Lieyang Archers before and after were only more than 200. If such a record could be passed down

Going out was enough to shock everyone. The cavalry of the Liaodong Army also had stirrups to help them, but the experience after facing the blazing sun archers was so miserable.

After Huang Zhong heard the loss, his expression was not so relaxed. Although he had extremely strict requirements for the cavalry under his command, Huang Zhong had deep feelings for the Lieyang Archers. He devoted himself to every cavalryman.

A lot of hard work.

Gao Cheng led more than 2,000 remnant defeated generals and fled in embarrassment in the direction they came from. At this time, the soldiers under his command looked panicked and completely lost the high fighting spirit they had when leaving Xiang. Fortunately, the counties along the way provided food and grass, and they were able to return.

When entering Xiangping City, especially during the retreat, one must always be on guard against the enemy.

Gongsun Du learned that the five thousand reinforcements had not reached Changli and had already been defeated. His expression became even older, and he was still a little shaky even with the support of his maid.

"Your Majesty, Lord 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 to ask for help. It can be said that it is related to the survival of Liaodong. If he can get the support of Yuan Shao on the Thunderbolt Chariot, he will have a greater chance of winning.

.

"Quickly tell Liu Tai to come in." Gongsun Du said.

Liu Tai walked into the hall and felt the solemn atmosphere. When he saw the blood on the armor, he was shocked.

"I pay homage to the king. Fortunately, my subordinates have lived up to their orders. The Marquis of Ye promised to support Liaodong with hundreds of bed crossbows, and also told the soldiers how to make bed crossbows." Liu Tai said with a cup of his hand.

Gongsun Du kept coughing after hearing this, and the maid hurriedly handed over the silk cloth. After the violent cough, dots of red appeared on the silk cloth. Gongsun Du glared at the maid beside him, put the silk cloth away, and laughed.

: "If we can defend Liaodong this time, Master Liu will be indispensable."

"This is what my subordinates should do," Liu Tai said.

After retreating everyone, Gongsun Du said earnestly: "General Gao Cheng led the 5,000 Liaodong Army to Changli. Unexpectedly, he encountered the cavalry of the Marquis of Jin on the way. The 5,000 soldiers lost nearly 3,000 people, and all the food, grass and baggage were taken by the enemy.

." Mentioning this matter, Gongsun Du couldn't hide his anger.

"Your Majesty, on this occasion, Liaodong is in danger and it is the time to employ people. General Gao Cheng has always been calm. If he is punished severely, I am afraid that it will cause discussion among the army officers." Liu Tai said. Gao Cheng is usually very close to the Liu family.

"Hmph, if the defeated general is not severely punished, how can he convince the soldiers of the three armies." Gongsun Du snorted coldly, exuding the power of a veteran on the battlefield.

Liu Tai was silent for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, the people under the command of the Marquis of Jin are unstoppable. At this time, the defenders in Changli City are already in danger. It is better to order them to retreat to Xiangping." He knew that Gongsun Du was very angry at this time, and he would try to persuade him later.

that is.

Gongsun Du looked unwilling. He had put in a lot of effort to seize the Liaodong kingdom, but he didn't expect that he would give up in less than a month.

"Your Majesty, the eldest son is still in Changli City." Liu Tai reminded.

Gongsun Du seemed to have made great determination, "Inform the defenders in Changli City that if Changli cannot be defended, they will retreat to Xiangping. However, all the grain, grass and baggage in the city will be burned and cannot be left to the Youzhou army."

As Liaodong's barrier against Youzhou, the food and grass in Changli City is sufficient. Even if there are tens of thousands of defenders in the city, it is enough for half a year.

"Here." Liu Tai cupped his hands and said.

"When will the bed crossbow promised by Marquis Ye arrive in Liaodong?" Gongsun Du asked.

"No more than half a month at the latest."

"I am very grateful that the Marquis of Ye can treat Liaodong like this." Gongsun Du said, if Xiangping had the protection of Chunnu, it would be much easier to defend Xiangping.

"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Ye once said that the production method of hundreds of bed crossbows and bed crossbows requires Liaodong to exchange them with the sophisticated weapons and armor needed by the fifty thousand army, so my subordinates boldly agreed."

The corners of Gongsun Du's mouth trembled a few times. Even Liaodong would have to pay a higher price for the armor and weapons needed by the 50,000-strong army. However, things have reached the current situation. As long as Liaodong is defended, everything will be worth it. "What you did

Not bad." In fact, he really wanted to scold Liu Tai, which was needed for an army of 50,000.
