Chapter 1053 Yuan Shao really ran away
Although it was the first time Zhang He saw a hot air balloon, he had heard about the battle between Xindu and Jinyang, and was quite afraid of that thing.
No one wants to face the matter of being beaten, so Zhang He had no choice but to take the initiative and rushed over quickly and was stuck with Cao's army. The air force on the hot air balloon was afraid of hurting friendly forces, so he would naturally stop.
The two armies were less than two miles apart. Seeing him rushing towards Cao Cao's pupils shrank, his face showed unprecedented solemnity. He waved the sword in his hand and roared with all his strength: "Attack."
The black-robed cavalry, who had been waiting for a long time, rushed forward with all their strength.
The two armies were like wild beasts running hard, rushing towards each other, and quickly killed them without any temptation.
Although Zhang He had a good idea, he rushed to Cao's army and then completely entangled with him. It took time to reach the point where you have me and I have you. The hot air balloon that has risen is different, just fluttering with the wind.
The hot air balloon quickly floated over Yuan Jun. Without ordering, the soldiers on it spontaneously ignited the explosive bag and threw it down without ordering it.
The explosive pack fell vertically and exploded among the Yuan army. The Yuan army's formation was scattered, the war horses made a terror and neighed, and some areas began to riot.
"The hot air balloon cannot control the direction, it can only float with the wind, and rush over to Cao's Air Force and be abandoned. Rush for me."
Zhang He shouted loudly at the top of his throat, constantly waving his spear to urge the army to attack.
He rushed from south to north, and the hot air balloon flew from north to south. Soon, he passed by and gradually moved away.
In the sky, Chen Xiazi, who had already thrown all the explosive bags he carried, saw that he was getting farther and farther away from the battlefield, said helplessly: "Continue to float. Now that I land, I will be easily surrounded by the enemy."
The hot air balloon flew south all the way and gradually flew to the entrance of Tongxie Valley. When he arrived here, Blind Chen didn't dare to fly anymore. He brought insufficient fuel. If the flying ghost knew what he would encounter, it would be better to land safely.
Let’s talk about the front line, without the air force causing trouble, Yuan’s army and Cao’s army were completely entangled.
Cao Cao held the telescope and stared at the battlefield. Seeing that the time was almost over, he decisively ordered: "Xu Huang Gan Ning, each brings 20,000 infantry to press forward, attack me, scout, and quickly send an order, and order the defenders of Gaonu City to come and support. Gaonu's broken city is no longer necessary to defend, Yuan Shao will give it to them if he wants it."
The whole army was pressing forward, and the time was for the death toll. Both sides went back and forth, and they quickly killed for half an hour.
Suddenly, a sound of horse hooves came from the west. When I turned my head and saw a black-armored cavalry with nearly 10,000 people quickly came under the banner of Zhao. It was the defenders of Gaonu City.
When the two armies were in a stalemate, what they feared most was the situation where enemy reinforcements suddenly broke out from the slanting sting. This was not only a victory in strength, but also a mental destruction.
Just imagine, when you fight with someone, it’s hard to solve the problem. When the other party’s helper comes, you are not panicked, and the rhythm of the attack will be messed up, and then you can imagine the outcome.
The ten thousand Gaonu defenders quickly entered the formation, and quickly pressed the scales towards Cao's army like a bargaining weight.
Seeing this, Zhang He instantly sank to the bottom of the valley and ordered decisively: "Retreat."
After saying that, he took the lead in running towards Dingyang. Yuan Jun, who was panicked, didn't bother to think too much and hurriedly followed.
Cao Cao shouted: "Zhang Liao Hou Cheng, chase after him and expand the results of the battle. Xu Huang and Gan Ning immediately moved to Tongxiegu to intercept Yuan's army to rescue Zhao Yun."
The Yuan army in the valley attacked for nearly two days, and standing here, you could vaguely hear the shouts of killing coming from over there. Zhao Yun only had three or five thousand soldiers and might not be able to hold on at any time.
Under Cao Cao's order, Cao's army was divided into two, the cavalry chased Zhang He, and the infantry rushed straight to Tongxie Valley. Not long after, they arrived at the entrance. After entering, they walked less than five miles before they saw the camp that Zhao Yun personally supervised and fought bloody battles.
The camp was surrounded by charred corpses that were blown up or burned, and the disgusting and strange smell almost left behind.
Cao Ang resisted the discomfort and shouted: "Why are you standing there? Rush over."
The deeper the more he went into the Tongxie Valley, the clearer the shouts of killing came. Cao Ang was also more anxious, fearing that he would be one step late and would kill Zhao Yun.
Cao's army did not dare to slack off and accelerated its journey, so they soon arrived at the second camp.
This place has also been broken by Yuan's army, and the broken limbs and remains of the ground.
Cao Jun had no choice but to continue running. After running less than ten miles, he finally saw Yuan Jun's tail.
When the enemy met, they were very jealous, and there was nothing else to say.
Cao's army killed from behind Yuan's army. Yuan Jun, who was attacking the last camp set up by Zhao Yun, was stunned. Then he ran away, turned around and quickly became a mess.
I don’t think about it. The canyon is just a little bigger than a palm, and there are encirclements in front and pursuers behind. Where can I run?
The movement here quickly alarmed Jiao Chu, who was constantly commanding the army to attack and Zhao Yun, who was struggling to resist in the camp.
Under the repeated attacks of Yuan's army, the last camp was already shaking. In order to protect the camp, Zhao Yun rushed out of the camp and fought several times. He was injured and couldn't even hold the guns in many places. Seeing the reinforcements coming from somewhere, he yelled loudly: "Brothers, hold on, the reinforcements have arrived, the lord and the young master are here to save us."
The defenders in the village also saw Cao's army coming from the valley entrance and burst into shocking cheers on the spot.
Compared with their excitement, Yuan Jun felt a different feeling. The defenders in the village were too tenacious. They had used all their strength to attack for two days. It would be fine if they didn't catch them. The reinforcements from the other side have arrived. The key is that they are in the canyon and cannot escape. They can only watch Cao's army slowly squeeze, are you angry?
Jiao Tu's eyes flashed a few times, and he sighed and threw away his weapons and said, "Surrender with a white flag, come, tie me up and send me to the prime minister to apologize."
All the soldiers around him were stunned. After coming to their senses, they didn't say a word of nonsense. They untied their cloak and wrapped it into a rope, tied Jiao Teng and escorted Cao Jun to the rear.
The warriors on the grassland are not afraid of bleeding, but they are afraid of not seeing hope. They have fought hard before because they knew that they could escape to Guanzhong by breaking through the camp.
But now that Cao's army is here, their hope is gone, so what are you waiting for if you don't surrender?
In the rear, Cao Cao saw the white flag raised high by Yuan's army and kept waving, and decisively ordered the attack to stop.
Not long after, a general Yuan army wearing bright light armor was tied up and led out of the crowd. It was Jiao Chu, a general under Yuan Shao.
Jiao Chu walked to Cao Cao and knelt down and said, "Jiao Chu has seen the Prime Minister. I am willing to surrender to the Prime Minister. Please punish him."
Cao Cao asked in a deep voice: "Where is Yuan Shao?"
Jiao Chu replied: "The General took a small road yesterday morning under the name of surveillance of the terrain. He was accompanied by Xun Chen, Xu You and Jia Kui. Before leaving, he will be sentenced to attack the camp here to attract the attention of the Prime Minister's army."
"Sure enough, I ran away."
Cao Cao sneered: "Use a hundred thousand troops to attract my attention and create a chance for escape for yourself. Yuan Shao's move was cut off his arm and was cruel enough. You are loyal. You are worthy of him. Yuan Benchu. Get up and let your army throw away the weapons, take off the armor, and retreat to the side to wait for the disposal."
"Thank you for not killing the Prime Minister."
