"Ah?" Gao Lan was shocked when he heard the words, and couldn't believe it: "I abandoned the camp and fled, and the lord also left. How could this happen? Why did the lord abandon the camp and run away?"

"Why? Hmph! The game is over. If you don't run now, he will become Li Li's prisoner!"

Zhang He snorted angrily, then shook his head helplessly, then pointed to the original main battlefield in Loudi, and said with a sad expression: "Brother Yuan was caught in a fight at dawn and had no time to separate himself, so he didn't pay attention to the situation on the battlefield. Changes. But you might as well turn your head now to see that on the main battlefield opposite the pit, there are at least two hundred thousand troops still fighting fiercely, but more than [-]% of the flags flying high are the battle flags of the Xiliang Army. The battle flags of the Allied forces only account for about [-]% to [-]%. Therefore, although you and I have not seen the situation on the battlefield with our own eyes, we can roughly estimate from the flags of the two armies after a night of fierce fighting and the collapse of the pit. The situation of the battle. I wonder if brother Yuanbo thinks so?"

"Uh, what Junyi said makes sense." Gao Lan nodded in amazement.He said deeply: "The two of us have fought on the battlefield for many years. If we can't even tell the strength of the two sides by looking at the banners, wouldn't we have lived for so many years in vain? How dare you call yourself a veteran in the battlefield. How can you lead the army to fight?"

Zhang He nodded happily, and rode his horse with Gao Lan around the north of the Allied camp, while looking back at the Loudi battlefield behind him.

"Brother Yuanbo pays a little attention, and it is not difficult to find that the situation on the battlefield at this moment is not so much that the two armies are still fighting fiercely, but that our allied soldiers are being chased and killed by the Xiliang cavalry. The entire army of the princes has been completely defeated by the Xiliang army. The Liang army was defeated, and tens of thousands of allied soldiers fled in a hurry. However, because the pit blocked the retreat, these soldiers had to flee to the two wings, trying to escape the battlefield from the two wings. It's a pity. Our allied army had many infantry and fought on cavalry Few, now that the way of retreat is blocked, and the passages between the two wings are far apart and quite narrow, so how can the Allied infantry outrun the Xiliang iron cavalry? However, if they fail to escape, there are only two fates: the other One is to become the dead soul of the Xiliang iron cavalry; the other is to kneel down and beg for surrender, willing to be a prisoner of the Xiliang army. Other than that, there is no other way."

While Zhang He was speaking, Gao Lan rode his horse and looked back, and found that what he saw was exactly what Zhang He said.Looking around, except for the huge pit that is the most conspicuous.On the battlefield of Loudi to the west of the pit, you can see it as far as you can see.Almost all of them were the swift figures of Xiliang war cavalry, and more than half of the flags that fluttered in the wind were also the battle flags of Xiliang army generals.However, the flags of the commanders and generals of the allied princes are relatively rare. The flags of Lu Bu, Liu Bei, and Qianzhao can be vaguely seen, while the flags of other generals of the Allied army are nowhere to be found.

"Perhaps the flags of the allied generals were hidden behind the densely packed Xiliang flags?" Gao Lan comforted himself after seeing the situation on the battlefield clearly.

After Zhang He finished speaking, Gao Lan asked in surprise: "Listen to Junyi's implication, could it be that my majestic princes and allied forces were defeated? Such a huge trap is enough to kill all Xiliang iron cavalry, but why did Junyi Always exaggerate the ambitions of others and destroy your own prestige in what you say?"

Zhang Yun could naturally hear Gao Lan's displeasure when he spoke. He clearly knew that Gao Lan was still looking forward to, relying on the infinite power of the underground pit lore formation, to wipe out the Xiliang war cavalry in one fell swoop, hoping that The allied forces of the princes will eventually be able to win, even a big victory, a complete victory.It's a pity that the beautiful longing in Gao Lan's heart is just wishful thinking, and he is unwilling to face reality.

In fact, at this moment, the results of the one-night fight and the pit lore formation were completely exposed in the morning light.However, the facts exposed in the sun are extremely cruel, bloody and cold, so that all Allied soldiers cannot accept this fact.

On the main battlefield of Loudi.The Allied forces successively dispatched as many as [-] former soldiers, including chariot formations, catapult formations, well railing chariot formations, bow and crossbow formations, giant shield formations, and [-] infantry spear formations, but the result was that the former The soldiers of the army were exhausted, and more than [-]% of the former soldiers had been reduced to ashes under the feet of the Xiliang iron cavalry, while the remaining [-]-[-]% of the soldiers fled without armor and armor, without a trace.

This is only the battle situation of the former army in the Allied battle formation, and the 24 infantry of the Chinese Army, which is the main force in the decisive battle, formed an incomparably huge Japanese battle formation, trying to stifle the iron hoof torrent of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry with an overwhelming force advantage. .However, after the battle started, Yuan Shao temporarily dispatched the [-] infantry led by Zhang Yun and Gao Lan to retreat to the rear. This was tantamount to breaking away from the main battlefield, which invisibly greatly weakened the combat strength of the Chinese army.Because of the darkness of the night, the princes of the Chinese army did not know Yuan Shao's true intention of doing this, and thought he had other plans. Therefore, Yuan Shao's move did not attract the attention of Lu Bu, Liu Bei, Cao Cao and others.

As a result, more than 15 troops under Lu Bu's command, 13 Jizhou war cavalry under his command, [-] Xuzhou troops under Liu Bei's command, and thousands of soldiers and horses sent by Cao Cao became the main force to directly resist the Xiliang war cavalry charge. The sum of its soldiers and horses is roughly the same as the number of Xiliang iron cavalry.Since then, the main force of the Allied Forces with less than [-] cavalry and [-] Xiliang Cavalry confronted head-on, and the result is self-evident.

During this period, the 10,000 to [-] Black Mountain Army under Zhang Yan on the left wing defected, prompting Cao Cao to withdraw from the main battlefield just as the battle was in full swing, under the guise of Yuan Shao's military orders.And Cao Cao's move undoubtedly weakened the number and combat effectiveness of the main force of the Chinese army again, and put the [-]+ soldiers of Lu Bu and Liu Bei to death.

Under many upheavals, after a fierce battle in the middle of the night.That is, at dawn, the main corps of the Allied Army finally lost to the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and then collapsed across the board.Had to withdraw to the rear.However, these retreating Allied soldiers never dreamed that when they retreated to the rear, what greeted them was not reinforcements, but huge pits in the ground.

In fact, the defeat on the main battlefield was not enough to pose a fatal threat to the main corps of the Chinese army.Out of the 15 main corps that fought fiercely overnight, fewer than 10,000 soldiers and horses actually died in the fighting.After all, in the face-to-face fight.Although the Xiliang iron cavalry were brave and fierce, the Allied soldiers were not mere decorations.In the bloody battle, Lu Bu, Qianzhao, Cao Ren, Liu Bei and others led [-]+ allied soldiers, and their combat effectiveness is not weak.Therefore, the Xiliang iron cavalry has not gained an overwhelming advantage in the short term.

Therefore.When the Allied forces retreated across the board on the main battlefield, the main corps of the Chinese army plus the remnants of the former army still had more than 10,000 troops.Although the allied army was defeated at this time, it was not yet to the point of being injured, and it still had the power to fight; in other words, the [-]+ soldiers and horses of the retreating army were the most powerful among the allied forces. Elite teacher.

However, with a burst of thunder and a loud bang, the main force of the allied forces retreated from the main battlefield.Together with the Heishan Army and Yuan Jun who were fighting, they swarmed into the pit like a bee.Then they rushed into the pit like a dumpling, one after another, scrambling to jump in!In addition, there were more than [-] Xiliang iron cavalry behind them chasing and intercepting them, chasing and killing them wantonly, which made the tens of thousands of allied soldiers unable to retreat even if they found that something was wrong, so that they were forced to jump and shoved by the people behind them. Into the pit.

Therefore, Yuan Shao carefully planned and spent a lot of manpower and material resources to dig out the underground pit, which can be regarded as a real hole for the Allied soldiers!And it's a big mess!

About four miles long, five hundred paces wide, and more than two feet deep, the sinkhole will destroy Yuan Shao's more than 2000 Yuan soldiers, more than [-] Heishan troops, and more than [-] soldiers when they collapse. Feiyan Qingqi and more than [-] Jinyiwei war cavalry devoured them all in one go.Among those who escaped by chance, besides Gao Lan, Chun Yuqiong, Gao Gan and more than [-] Yuan Jun soldiers, there were also more than [-] Xiliang warriors including Li Li, Li Zhi, Zhang Yan and Chen Dao.The two armies put together nearly [-] paces, and less than [-] people actually survived.

And this is just the huge devouring power of the pit collapse for a moment, and the next half an hour is the purgatory time for the pit lore formation to really show its power.

The moment the pit collapsed, the 10,000+ Allied main force corps retreating in haste could be said to have rushed all the way, and finally caught up with Yuan Shao's meticulously concocted hell feast, which came just in time and at the right time.As a result, tens of thousands of allied soldiers jumped into the pit ignorantly following the remnants of the Yuan Army, the Black Mountain Army, the Feiyan Qingqi, and the Jinyiwei, and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry behind them chased and killed them, intensifying the darkness. Pit jumping feat of Allied soldiers.

At that moment, the shrill screams that shocked the world, weeping ghosts and gods, the long neighing and wailing of the war horses that rushed straight into Xiaohan, the continuous sound of sharp piercing, and the crushing ground that was like cutting through waves. The pit collapsed; it will become an indelible and painful memory for all those who survived.

It wasn't until dawn that the Pit Killing Formation finally stopped killing, because no one fell into the pit anymore.At this moment, there are not many soldiers standing by the pit, there are still tens of thousands of soldiers, but no matter whether it is the soldiers of the Allied Army or the Xiliang Army, as long as he does not fall immediately, someone will try to pull him up.

It is precisely because of the coming of the light that at this moment, many unimaginable and treacherous things happened.Under the strict order of the coach Li Li, the Xiliang iron cavalry, who had the chance to win, stopped chasing and killing allied soldiers. The interim commanders of the allied forces, Lu Bu and Liu Bei, also ordered the allied soldiers to stop fighting in time after Li Li issued the truce order.Immediately, the two armies, Ma Jingwei and Ma Jingwei, each occupied a passage leading to the Allied army camp. The Xiliang army was on the north (left wing), and the Allied army occupied the south (right wing). .

During the rescue operation, the three commanders, Li Li, Lu Bu, and Liu Bei, had an unprecedented tacit understanding. There was no need to discuss with each other, and they did not distinguish between the enemy and the enemy. As long as there are still soldiers on the territory, they will be rescued, whether they are men or horses. , all pulled up.The entire rescue time lasted for half an hour, that is, the period between the dawn of the sky and the rising sun.

At this moment, human nature returns to its original nature. At the beginning of human beings, human nature is inherently good.

Da da da!

"Lü Bu is going away, dismount quickly and die!"

"Where is the big-eared thief running, kill him!"

"Pound is here, the thief will leave!"

Amidst the loud shouts of killing, tens of thousands of Xiliang war cavalry quickly passed the left-wing plank road, and then galloped directly in front of the Allied army camp, heading straight for the official road in the south to pursue and kill them.

At this time, Lu Bu, who passed through the plank road on the right wing first, turned a deaf ear to the sound of chasing and killing behind him, and led the surviving more than 2 cavalry, but did not enter the camp of the Allied forces, and went straight to the south.

After Lu Bu's army, there was the Xuzhou army led by Liu Bei.

However, the Xuzhou army did not have many cavalry, only the [-] personal guards around Liu Bei were cavalry, and the rest were all infantry, so they were not as fast as Lu Bu's army and fell behind.

In addition, in the previous pit collapse, the Xuzhou army under Liu Bei suffered heavy casualties, and ten pavilions lost eight pavilions.

I think when he led the army to join the alliance, he had more than 5 troops in his hands. Last night, tens of thousands of troops were lost in the battle, and then more than [-] troops were trapped in the collapse of the pit.

Therefore, there are only more than 1 soldiers and horses left in Liu Bei's hands, and there are three or four thousand wounded soldiers among them.If the wounded soldiers were abandoned, the number of soldiers and horses under his command would be less than 1.This is a true sense of heavy casualties, just a little bit away, and the entire army will be wiped out.

The most important thing is that Liu Bei has no generals to use at all, so he has to go to battle in person. In the decisive battle before, he went to fight in person, but now he is still doing it himself in the panic.before that.On the surface, there are hundreds of generals under his command, but there are very few generals who can be used to great advantage. The only general he can rely on is Zhang Fei.However, Zhang Fei was seriously injured.It is difficult to protect yourself, let alone go into battle to kill the enemy?

Therefore, Liu Bei and his Xuzhou Army were in a panic while fleeing.Because they were afraid that the Xiliang army would chase them up, they scrambled and panicked along the way, so that thousands of soldiers ran directly to the gate by mistake.As a result, they were blocked by the Xiliang army and all of them were captured alive.As a last resort, Liu Bei had no choice but to lead his troops to flee behind Lu Bu's army.So at least he won't run into the Xiliang army's arms again.

Compared with Liu Bei, who suffered heavy losses and was in a panic, Lu Bu and his Yanzhou Army were not much better.The [-] army when it joined the alliance has now lost more than half, leaving only [-] cavalry.Among them, the infantry suffered the most casualties.There were almost no casualties, and there were less than [-] infantry left.Fortunately, the casualties of the wolf cavalry army under his command were not too great, and there are still more than [-] war cavalry, which are still capable of fighting.

However, Lu Bu himself was seriously injured.Previously, he had suffered both losses in the fight with Huan Fei, but in fact his injuries were much more serious than Huan Fei's; and then he fought fiercely with Dian Wei for nearly a hundred rounds, resulting in more injuries.Yes.He is now powerless to fight anymore, facing the Xiliang army's aggressive pursuit of victory.There is no choice but to run away.

Fleeing in a hurry, Lv Bu led his army and ran for several miles at a stretch, gradually moving away from the Allied camp, and Feiyundu Pass was not far ahead.At this point, he breathed a sigh of relief, reined in his horse and slowly slowed down.

Immediately, Lu Bu rode his horse and stood on a high soil slope by the side of the road. He raised his eyes and looked at the official road to the west.What surprised him the most was that there were no screams on the official road behind Liu Beijun. Xuzhou Army soldiers behind.

In fact, Lu Bu's idea was correct, but he didn't know it yet.

In fact, as early as dawn, after Li Li ordered the whole army to stop chasing and killing allied soldiers and try their best to rescue the allied soldiers who fell into the pit, the Xiliang army never killed a single allied soldier.

Just like what Zhang He and Gao Lan saw when they fled, after a brief truce, when the sun rose, the Xiliang army began to chase and kill allied soldiers again.However, this is only a superficial phenomenon; in fact, the reason why the Xiliang army shouted loudly and pursued the allied army with great fanfare was to frighten the fleeing allied soldiers and force them to abandon their weapons and surrender.In this way, the Xiliang army could kill less, or even stop killing.

Therefore, during the entire pursuit, the Xiliang army was full of thunder and light rain, and the momentum was huge. In fact, they never wanted to kill the fleeing Allied soldiers.Even if they encountered some stubborn soldiers who vowed not to surrender, the Xiliang cavalry only wounded them and captured them alive, instead of killing a soldier in vain.

And the cause of all this was Li Li's military order: capture as many prisoners of war as possible, and unless you have to, you must not kill one person in vain.

In this way, Lu Bu made a surprising discovery, and it also made the Loudiyuan decisive battle start from the moment of dawn, from the moment Yuan Shao led his troops to abandon the camp and fled. There was no more mass killings, but the war continued.

The reason why Li Li issued such unimaginable orders was that after witnessing the tragedy of nearly 20 soldiers buried in the pit with his own eyes, he couldn't help feeling compassionate, and even felt a faint sense of guilt that he couldn't let go of.Although this kind of sadness and kindness is destined not to last for a long time, for Li Li, who has long been accustomed to bloodshed and killing, this is the first time in recent years, and perhaps this will be one of the few times in his life. An act of kindness.

Maybe Li Li himself didn't know why he, who had always been iron and ruthless, suddenly had kind thoughts in his heart, or directly said that he had a woman's benevolence in his heart?In fact, the reason is very simple, because this benevolence stems from his memory and disposition in later generations.

Perhaps Li Li has gradually forgotten that he is a person who has been reborn, and has already fully integrated himself into this chaotic era.However, certain natures that lie deep within the soul will never disappear.And this kind of nature is not unique to him, but a kind nature that every descendant of Yan and Huang has. Just like before, he, Lu Bu and Liu Bei chose to temporarily cease fighting at the same time.

In the face of irresistible and unnecessary sacrifices, the best side of human nature will naturally be revealed, and thus make decisions that one cannot understand.Although they didn't understand why they did this, they still gave orders without hesitation, thus saving the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers.
