Chapter 27
"Continue to attack, drive the yellow scarf thieves to the general flag, and order Zhao and others to lead the infantry to encircle the left and right sides. Today, I will surround the tens of thousands of people with 1,300 people!" Liu Ye looked like he was running around like a headless chicken. The yellow scarf thief said suddenly with pride.
After that, more than 300 riders did not attack directly, but drove the surrounding yellow scarf thieves towards the front on horseback.
At this time, Zhao et al., who were in command of the infantry, also received the order, and immediately ordered the infantry to be divided into two groups and advance slowly to reduce the space for the Yellow Turbans to move. For a while, the cavalry and the two infantry groups moved forward together, like three walls Push forward slowly to lock up the yellow turban thief, squeeze him to death, and crush him to death.
The yellow turban thieves were clustered together, and if they fled outside, they would directly hit the spears of the Han army, so they had to gather towards the designated location according to Liu Ye's plan, and tens of thousands of yellow turban thieves were gathered around Pang Hun at once. .
Pang Hun laughed in disbelief: "Does this Liu Yuqing have such a big appetite? Want to swallow our 20,000 troops in one go?"
Thinking of this, Pang Hun suddenly became courageous, held the long sheath tightly, and thought through gritted teeth: 20,000 troops, it depends on whether Liu Ye has the appetite to eat it, the fish will not die, but the net will break!
Seeing the mighty yellow scarf bandits surrounded by three parts, getting closer and closer to Pang Hun, Liu Ye finally put away his lazy look and raised his spear to shout.
"assault!"
The slow-moving horseshoes suddenly accelerated, making a loud trampling sound. Zhao and the others understood Liu Ye's meaning at the same time, and waved their hands to order the pawns to charge forward. The army's spears collided with each other, so they had to push each other and ran towards the Chinese army where Pang Hun was.
The smug smile on his face stopped abruptly, and he realized it after a moment of surprise, with an ugly look on his face, and shouted loudly: "Let these thieves go away! Don't let them break up the formation."
Pang Hun even did not hesitate to order his supervisors to raise their butcher knives. These supervisors were ruthless and ruthless when facing their colleagues who turned over and ran away during the siege. But now there are tens of thousands of people gathered like a tide, and they can't kill them all. How can we start?
It was this moment of hesitation that had already turned the situation upside down. The yellow turban thieves fleeing like a tide ran into the Chinese army where Pang Hun was, and drowned them in one breath. Nearly a thousand governors' troops were knocked out of their way, and they were all staggered, so that they were trapped by the crowd of people running from east to west. I don't know where I went.
Pang Hun yelled loudly, angrily wanting to kill a few routs to stabilize the army, but before the sword fell, a dozen people from the opposite side rushed up in a panic, knocking him off the horse immediately , All of a sudden, people turned on their backs and their minds became confused.
In the supervisory team, several of Pang Hun's cronies finally saw Pang Hun being knocked off his horse, so he quickly stepped forward to help Pang Hun up, and Pang Hun took a painful look at the Han army who had been killed after the defeat , closed his eyes in pain.
However, he had the spirit of Han Xin, Marquis of Huaiyin, who could bend and stretch. He immediately opened his eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "The big deal is that this handsome man is wrong. I can't save my life. Let's go!"
Pang Hun no longer resisted, but took advantage of the opportunity to join the tide of escape. As for the handsome flag, he had no intention of controlling it, and was knocked to the ground by the yellow turban thieves running around. When the Han army saw the Yellow Turban commander's flag fall, they immediately cheered in unison. Although they had been charging for a while, their morale was getting higher and higher.
Liu Ye led the cavalry to pursue bravely, and ordered Wu De and Zhao to lead the infantry, divide the troops to pack up the ordnance and capture the yellow scarf bandits. But the yellow turban thief fled in all directions, and after Shuai Qi was knocked down, Pang Hun was smart enough to take off his conspicuous armor and throw it on the ground, wrap a yellow turban on his head casually, and ran for his life.
Pang Hun had no particularly obvious features, and there were fleeing and scattered Yellow Turban thieves in all directions, so Liu Ye led his troops to chase for a while, and killed hundreds of Yellow Turban routs, and ordered the pursuit to stop.
Xu Zang looked at Liu Ye with unsatisfactory expression on his face: "Brother, why don't you continue to pursue and kill the enemy chieftain?"
"Don't chase poor bandits. If you keep chasing, rush out of Licheng, and if you encounter a large group of yellow scarf bandits when you go to other places, I will wait for more than 300 riders. It is impossible to win every battle. Just take it when you see it."
Liu Ye turned his horse and led the cavalry back, and ordered Xu Zang to pick up the dusty flag that was trampled by the yellow turban bandits, and carry them back to the county town together with the captured yellow turban bandits, military equipment, food and grass, etc. .
The elders in Licheng have been frightened these few days. The Yellow Turban Bandits came and killed the magistrate in the city. Although Liu Ye came forward to preside over the overall situation, can he, a young man, be able to stop the Yellow Turban Bandits from sweeping in? ?
Today Liu Ye went out to fight in battle. Every household in Licheng closed their doors. They vaguely heard the sound of passionate drums and fierce shouts of killing. Heading into town?
The crisp sound of horseshoes resounded on the bluestone slab. A cavalry soldier was covered in blood, but he couldn't hide his excited expression.
"Great victory! Brother Liu led the troops to defeat the Yellow Turban bandits, beheading thousands of them, the bandit chiefs fled, and there was no trace of the bandits for dozens of miles."
With joy on his face, the cavalry walked around the city full circle, shouting as he ran, with the heads of two yellow scarf thieves pinned to his waist. The bloodstained body at this moment did not seem to be a kind of filth, but a Proof of heroism.
"The yellow turban is really back?"
"Hey, this young man really can be described as the reincarnation of the champion."
"Haha, although there is no County Magistrate Song in Licheng, there is Liu Yuqing."
The doors of every household were wide open, and the whole city came out with the old and the young, rushing towards the city gate, wanting to witness the scene of Liu Ye's return to the teacher's great victory, and see those rebels who attacked the city.
The people of the whole city lined the road for several miles to welcome them, each of them stretched their necks, eagerly waiting for the return of the army, many children kept yelling that they could not see, the helpless adults could only smile, and lifted their children high on their necks Only then did the children smile, and they stopped making so much noise.
At this time, Liu Ye had already heard about the grand welcome of the people all over the city, and immediately ordered his subordinates to line up and not disturb the people without authorization. As the pioneer, surrounded by infantry on both wings, and the cavalry behind, they walked slowly towards the direction of Licheng.
