Infinite War Begins with Cao Thief
Chapter 59 Turning like the wind
Gao Shun's trapped camp was an animal produced by Infinite War Space that was wearing three layers of heavy armor and could walk as fast as flying. He held up a large shield and ignored the rain of arrows, and directly attacked Ji Ling's central army.
Ji Ling, who was startled by Gao Shun's unconventional playing style, quickly ordered his elite troops to attack to prevent him from being trapped in the formation and shaking his own formation.
It must be admitted that the equipment of Yuan Shujun's army, which received the iron smelting base in Nanyang, has been improved to a certain extent, and all the elites are wearing iron armor. But after all, Yuan Shu's time in Nanyang was too short, and it was impossible for him to be fully armed, and unlike Dong Huang, who had an elite force produced by Infinite War Space, Ji Ling's elite force did not achieve the results Ji Ling wanted.
In the Cold Weapon Age, when confronting the well-built heavy infantry of the trapped camp, one must use heavy weapons such as axes and hammers to break through the armor, but it was obvious that Ji Ling had not made these preparations.
Ji Ling's troops can't break through the armor of the trap camp at all, and the trap camp equipped with a variety of weapons can knock down even elite armored soldiers with one blow.
Under the crazy impact of the trapped camp, Ji Ling's central army inevitably showed a tendency to retreat.
To make matters worse, the powerful cavalry of the Liangzhou Army were not idle either. They missed many battles due to recuperation. Hua Xiong, now serving as Gao Shun's deputy general, saw the right opportunity and led his Liangzhou cavalry to successfully penetrate Ji Ling's army. The weak point of the shaken Chinese army.
At this point, the defeat of Ji Ling's troops was inevitable.
Gao Shun's bloody facts once again proved that as long as he did not make obvious mistakes such as underestimating the enemy and fought head-on, Yuan Shu's army was no match for Dong Zhuo's army, let alone the most elite opponent of Dong Huang's army trapped in the camp!
The news of the defeat on the front line frightened Yuan Shu, who had been immersed in the joy of defeating Niu Fu's troops not long ago.
Originally, Yuan Shu was planning to use the power of victory to destroy Wang Rui and completely occupy Jingzhou in order to achieve the strategic goal of "half of the Han Dynasty is in my hands". To this end, he personally sat in Wancheng to supervise the battle. However, Dong Huangjun's consecutive battles failed. It reminded him once again of Dong Huang's terror of overthrowing the jujube princes while talking and laughing!
Yuan Shu was a character who had great ambitions in writing but was a loser in reading. Faced with this situation, he completely lost his sense of proportion and the only strategy he could think of was to escape.
"This is not an escape, this is a strategic change!"
Yuan Shu, who was afraid of being surrounded in Wancheng and unable to escape, did not care about his new wife who had just married and had not yet had time to open her bud, nor did he care about Liu Xun and Liu Xiang who were still in the south to confront Wang Rui's army. He left Qiao Rui behind to lead the troops. Wancheng, after cutting off his wife, he led his people to escape to Runan's lair overnight.
Even after escaping to his hometown in Runan, Yuan Shu still felt that it was not safe and continued to move to Shouchun.
The consequences of Yuan Shu's escape were disastrous.
When Gao Shun's troops appeared at the gate of Wancheng, singing all the way, Wancheng was already in chaos.
Qiao Rui, who had relatively average abilities, had neither the confidence to withstand Dong Huang's army's attack nor the courage to go out of the city to fight. He just ordered his men to close the four gates tightly and defend to the death.
In Qiao Rui's view, as long as he could defend for ten days and a half and support Liu Xun's retreat, he could be considered worthy of Yuan Shu.
However, Qiao Rui's persistence angered the wealthy Nanyang family living in Wancheng.
The affairs of the three counties of Hedong cannot be hidden from the eyes and ears of the world. No matter how well Dong Huang disguises himself, anyone with a discerning eye will know that it was Dong Huang who did it!
Obviously, Dong Huang only cares about profit, not reputation, nor does he care about wealthy families. On the contrary, he will regard wealthy families as fat pigs to be slaughtered.
! Dong Huang treated the wealthy families in Hedong who did not provoke him like this, so how would he treat the wealthy families in Nanyang who were losers? Will he just massacre the city?
The Nanyang nobles knew very well that it was very foolish to stay in Wancheng at this time and pin their fate on Dong Huang's mercy!
So, these people united to put pressure on Qiaorui, asking him to open the south gate of Nanyang City and let them leave.
How dare Qiaorui make such a decision!
Qiao Rui could figure it out with his feet. Once he opened the city gate, not only would the aristocratic families flee, but it would also turn into a city-wide rout!
The soldiers of Yuan Shu's army, whose lords have all fled, face the invincible Dong Huang's army. It is unknown whether they still have courage! If the army mutinies by then, everything will stop.
Qiao Rui really thought about Yuan Shu wholeheartedly, but the aristocratic family only thought about themselves.
If Dong Huang had besieged the city at this time, some of them would naturally be willing to defend the city to the death, but now Gao Shun's troops are just staying in the north of the city, and they don't even have any plans to attack the city. This undoubtedly gives them a lot more to think about. .
With the status of a famous family, even if he goes south to join Wang Rui, he can still have enough food and clothing, so why do he have to stay in this dead place?
When the ultimate goal of selfishness is survival, the power that can be unleashed is undoubtedly extremely terrifying. Several daring clan leaders combined their forces and simply ordered their clan soldiers to attack the city gate, hoping to directly break through the city gate and escape.
As a result, a melee inevitably broke out. The lawless aristocratic family gathered more than 3,000 ethnic soldiers and gathered their friends to attack the south gate of Wancheng, which was not very tightly defended.
Because the focus of the city defense is in the north, there are only more than 300 soldiers guarding the south gate of Wancheng. Facing the rebellion led by the aristocratic family, they who had no intention of fighting were completely panicked and were not willing to fight at all. Some even directly Go home, take your wife and children, and run away with the army!
When Qiao Rui led a large force to the south gate where the trouble had occurred, the situation was out of control and people were fleeing everywhere.
What made Qiao Rui's hands and feet even colder was that shortly after he left the north gate, fireworks suddenly broke out in the city. Someone shouted slogans such as "Dong Huang's army has entered the city" and "Qiao Rui has also escaped", ordering everyone to People surrender.
Such a change made the bridge as if it had fallen into an ice cave.
He knew that Wancheng was doomed.
The bad news continues.
Just when Qiao Rui was undecided whether to flee or stay, the sound of roaring horse hooves came from the south of the city, and the overwhelming tremors let Qiao Rui know that the cavalry of the Xiliang Army had really entered the city! Yuan Shu's army does not have that many cavalry, and can run out of thousands of troops.
And that's exactly what happened.
Seeing the fireworks in the city and the shouts of killing, Gao Shun realized that the opportunity had come and quickly ordered Hua Xiong to supervise the ants descending from Luyang to attack the city.
Although there were many Yuan Shu's troops guarding the north wall, Qiao Rui's move to rescue the south gate gave them the illusion that Qiao Rui also escaped with the defeated army! Coupled with the chaos in the city, they suddenly lost their courage.
I don't know who shouted "General Qiao has escaped" first, and the situation got out of hand. Some ran away, some knelt down and surrendered, and a few smart ones took the initiative to open the city gate and let Dong Huang's army enter. .
At this point, Wancheng changed hands, and Qiaorui fled in panic under the protection of his own soldiers.
By the afternoon of that day, the turbulent Wancheng had calmed down under Dong Huangjun's bloody cleanup. Most of the wealthy families who fled with the property belonging to Dong Huangjun failed to escape, leaving behind a large amount of loot.
In the evening, Dong Huang rode a tall horse, under the crowds of people in Wancheng, along the spotless bluestone road, and entered Wancheng, which Cao Cao had longed for.
It is a pity that Zhang Ji died early and did not leave Zhang Xiu with a widowed aunt named Zou.
You know, the widowed aunt and Wancheng are more suitable for Ao!
