Chapter 1296

~6 min read 1,130 words

Duan Yu didn't stop at all, but continued to break the formation forward, almost without receiving any decent interception.

This is the difference between a regular army and a miscellaneous army.

Although the Yellow Turban army has many people, it is not even as good as the armies of those small countries in the Western Regions.

No armor, no unified command.

It is just a group of farmers gathered together.

The reason why cavalry is terrifying is because of the momentum after charging.

Ordinary people have no courage to stand in front of a charging cavalry.

Only those old soldiers who have truly experienced major battles and seen cavalry charges, and have protective gear, shields, and spear formations, have the courage to face cavalry.

When a regular army faces a cavalry charge, there will be large shields in front.

The inverted triangular spikes under the large shields are embedded in the ground, and long spears over a zhang long are in front to block the cavalry charge.

Like this kind of team formed by flesh and blood, it is simply vulnerable in front of a cavalry charge.

Especially heavy armored cavalry.

As long as they are hit, there is almost only one ending, and that is death.

The west bank of the Fen River.

Yang Feng and Wu Xi were already unable to speak.

Including the soldiers under the two, they all felt extremely fortunate at this time.

Fortunate that it was not them who blocked Duan Yu on the east bank.

The battle started quickly and ended quickly.

When Duan Yu led his hundreds of heavy cavalrymen to break through the grand formation and ride away, he left behind only a vacuum zone filled with bloodstains.

Duan Yu didn't look back and continued to lead the cavalry under his command to go north.

Time passed quickly.

The rising sun hung high in the sky.

Yang Feng was leading Wu Xi to clean up the battlefield and gather the defeated troops.

After this battle...

No, it shouldn't be said to be this battle.

It should be said that after being taught a lesson this time, there were actually not many real casualties.

Most of them were scattered.

But Guo Tai, Li Le, Hu Cai, and others all died.

Yang Feng also unexpectedly became the highest general of this army, and the only general.

Near noon, when Yang Feng was commanding the soldiers to clean up the battlefield, another cavalry came from the south of the Fen River.

This time the number of cavalry was even larger, reaching several thousand.

The frightened Yellow Turban soldiers were scared again when they saw this scene.

But fortunately, the ones who came this time were no longer the Liangzhou troops under Duan Yu.

But Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun who came to pursue Duan Yu.

When the two led the cavalry under their command to the vicinity of the battlefield, they understood something just by looking at the battlefield.

Yang Feng led his subordinate Wu Xi to meet Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun.

"Are you Guo Tai?"

Zhu Jun, who was wearing a black armor and a black cloak on his back, looked at Yang Feng.

Zhu Jun's face was cold, and there was some disdain in his eyes.

Yang Feng arched his hands at Zhu Jun and said: "No, I am Yang Feng, the deputy general under General Guo..."

"Where is Guo Tai?"

Before Yang Feng could finish his words, Zhu Jun interrupted and asked:

"Where is Guo Tai? Weren't you ordered to block Duan Yu here? Where is Duan Yu?"

Yang Feng looked in the direction behind him.

Not far behind Yang Feng, Guo Tai, whose head had been bitten off, still had the helmet that had been bitten flat on his head.

Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun followed Yang Feng's gaze and looked over.

"I am Huangfu Song. Has Duan Yu already run away?" Huangfu Song asked Yang Feng after looking at Guo Tai's corpse.

Yang Feng nodded.

He wanted to tell Huangfu Song that it was inappropriate to use "run away" to describe Duan Yu.

Duan Yu didn't run away, but killed through them and left triumphantly.

"I have long heard of General Huangfu Song's great name. I am Yang Feng. General Guo was killed by Duan Yu, and Duan Yu has led troops in the direction of Taiyuan Commandery."

Huangfu Song nodded slightly.

Zhu Jun on the side still looked disdainful.

When the two passed through Linfen County, they learned from Yuan Ji that the Yellow Turban army recruited by Guo Tai and others blocked Duan Yu in White Wave Valley.

Of course, the two had never held any hope that Guo Tai could capture Duan Yu.

With these miscellaneous soldiers, let alone one hundred thousand, even if there were another one hundred thousand, it would be useless.

Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun just hoped that Guo Tai could delay Duan Yu a little more.

But now it seems that this Guo Tai not only failed to delay Duan Yu, but even lost his own life.

"Alright, go do your work." Huangfu Song waved his hand at Yang Feng to dismiss him.

Yang Feng knew that the two looked down on people like him, so he didn't stick to them, but walked away far away.

After Yang Feng left, Huangfu Song looked at Zhu Jun.

"Gongwei, what do you think Duan Yu wants to do?" Huangfu Song asked in confusion: "Reasonably speaking, shouldn't he return to Liangzhou?"

"But why did he go all the way to Bingzhou? This seems a bit inconsistent with common sense."

Zhu Jun also nodded.

The day they ordered to prepare to surround Duan Yu under Anyi City, Duan Yu abandoned the city and left.

And it was all the way north, in the direction of Bingzhou, not west to return to Liangzhou. At that time, they discussed where Duan Yu was going to escape back to Liangzhou.

But chasing all the way here, it feels like Duan Yu has no intention of returning to Liangzhou at all.

Since he is not returning to Liangzhou, where is he going?

What is he doing?

"Let's report this matter first. As long as Duan Yu leaves Hedong Commandery, it will be very difficult for us to pursue him, and..."

Huangfu Song looked at the situation around him. If he really caught up with Duan Yu, he didn't know what would happen.

Slowing down the marching speed and joining the large army behind is the right way.

After discussing for a while, the two decided to rest on the spot.
