There are pros and cons to launching an attack while the fog is still lingering.
The biggest advantage of pursuing victory is that it does not give the enemy a chance to breathe. Although the smoke is poisonous, it is not fatal. And the closer you get to the other end of the canyon, the milder the symptoms of poisoning. If we don't take advantage of the enemy's disorientation to build momentum in one fell swoop and push the front to the other end of the valley, it's hard to guarantee whether the enemy will take advantage of this gap to regroup.
The disadvantage is of course the danger caused by the lingering fog. Despite taking maximum protection, as long as there is no gas mask, there is still some risk.
"But Wang Yu can't care about so much. Fighting is inherently risky, and you have to fight when it's time to fight.
Moreover, in a sense, he had to fight.
??As far as common sense is concerned, there is nothing wrong with Lu Bu's rash advance, even if the Qingzhou side failed to rescue him in time and he was defeated and died. Lu Bu's unauthorized actions brought too much trouble to the Qingzhou Army, and almost caused the entire front to collapse. The various ministries in Yanzhou and Qingzhou were too late to protect themselves, so how could they care about saving others?
But if he just watched Lu Bu's defeat like this, Wang Yu would feel uneasy.
"Don't say that you owe your father-in-law a lot. Even if there is no previous entanglement of love and hate, watching a tyrannical hero die under a conspiracy is a big violation of your heart. To save Lu Bu, we must break through this canyon!
The goal is very clear.
"Push forward from the center, break through one line of defense and rush straight to the next one. Don't worry about the enemies behind you, and don't give the enemies in front of you time to breathe!" Zhao Yun understood his lord's mood most clearly. Before stepping into the smoke, he The first combat order was issued.
Eight hundred warriors who were the first to ascend quickly followed Zhao Yun and pounced on their prey like long snakes. After the burning pile at the entrance of the valley was extinguished, the poisonous smoke in the valley began to gradually fade, but Cao Jun had not had time to make tactical adjustments.
The poisonous smoke offensive for more than an hour caused them far greater losses than expected. Many leaders were still vomiting in a daze and did not bother to observe what was going on ahead. The scouts and the ambushes who were ambushing on the cliff were the most severely affected by the thick smoke because they were standing the highest. At this moment, almost all of them fell from the cliff and died.
Various traps and obstacles are still in place, but without the soldiers restraining them, these traps and obstacles are completely unable to function as they should. This time, as the first cavalryman, they only had a piece of leather armor. They were not as bulky as the heavy armored infantry, and they were fully mentally prepared and not afraid of traps at all.
If the bandits could still organize resistance, they could inflict a large number of casualties on the Qingzhou Army, which lacked protection. Unfortunately, those who still retained the ability to move had already fled to the rear, and the only ones left behind were as languid as corpses. patient.
When they discovered that danger was coming, these patients panicked, screamed, and wanted to resist.
The hand holding the weapon became heavier than ever before, and the spear without three ounces of iron seemed to have turned into a horse-cutting sword made entirely of iron, and it was impossible to lift it up.
They couldn¡¯t use their proud agility, and more than half of them couldn¡¯t stand up at all. As soon as they moved, they felt dizzy and nauseous. Those who barely stood up were shaky and did not pose much of a threat at all.
Because he was wearing a mask, Zhao Yun did not need to shout to increase his momentum, but directly set an example with practical actions.
With a flick of the silver gun in his hand, the horse flying across the road flew up, knocking several thieves staggering forward. Ignoring the enemies rushing up around him, he rushed forward to kill them. The silver spear fluttered like snow, and wherever the silver light flashed, the enemy retreated with blood splattered, completely piercing through the line of defense in an instant.
The gale warriors behind him rushed up one after another, wielding swords and guns, chopping melons and vegetables, and chopped down all the remnants of the besieging enemies.
The traitor soldiers who were neglected in training were far from the opponents of the Qingzhou Army. After being attacked by the poisonous smoke, their combat ability and morale were greatly reduced. Almost all of them had sloppy steps and couldn't hold their weapons steadily. Someone rushed forward in a daze, but the Qingzhou soldiers took off their weapons with a gentle push.
In just a few breaths, the defense line that had blocked Taishi Ci's heavy-armored elites was declared to have fallen. Like tofu, it fell apart with a light touch.
The remaining bandits completely collapsed.
The bolder ones retreated to the rivers and cliffs on both sides, trying to escape by using water or rock climbing skills. The timid ones dropped their weapons, turned around and ran away. The smart one is to just lie down on the spot, hoping to be ignored as a dead person.
Zhao Yun pressed the silver spear downwards, signaling everyone not to pursue too closely, and not to pay attention to the thieves who were lying on the ground and unable to get up.
Those rout troops are good startersRather than chasing down passers-by, it is better to let them run into traps and block knives in front. As for those lying on the ground, whether they are pretending to be dead or really unable to get up, it actually doesn't matter, as long as they don't block the way.
There are two waves of attack sequences from Qin Feng and Fang Yue, and finally there is the cavalry led by the lord himself. It doesn't make much difference whether he pretends to be dead or not.
Following the rout of the bandits, Zhao Yun turned around the second mountain pass.
As soon as he turned around, he saw a spear stabbing him like a poisonous snake. He twisted his body to pass the spear point, quickened his pace, and leaned forward like a silver spear. When he raised his eyes, Zhao Yun was a little surprised to see an elite-looking general wearing fish scale armor with his eyes wide open. Look at yourself.
Although this person also had a thick cloth covering his mouth and nose, he still fell slowly in the mist. He wasn't poisoned by the mist, it was the throat-sealing stab of the rotten silver spear that killed him. If you want to sneak attack Zhao Yun, this will be the end.
The brave general who came to rescue from the rear was killed as soon as he met him. This unbelievable fact became the last straw. The thieves on the third line of defense collapsed before the Qingzhou soldiers arrived.
More people joined the fleeing tide. At the bottom of the several-foot-wide valley, there seemed to be a sudden surge of water, stumbling towards the relatively complete defense lines behind them.
The loyalty they once had was thrown into the air. The two groups of people in the same camp crowded each other, pushed each other, and cursed and cried.
There was a turning point, and a standing fence collapsed. This fence was erected in an extremely insidious position. In addition to being at the corner, it was also covered by a large rock. If a frontal attack is used to break through, even Qingzhou's elite soldiers will be stuck here, unable to advance or retreat, and will suffer heavy casualties.
But now, this fence has become a reminder for the thieves themselves.
¡°I don¡¯t know how many defeated soldiers were tripped here, and then trampled under the feet of the robes behind them. They were allowed to roar and curse loudly, but no one paid attention to them. Soon, the soldiers who fell on the ground stopped cursing or moaning. In the misty smoke, blood and sawdust were mixed together.
Chasing, killing, fighting!
Zhao Yun led his troops to advance wildly, and felt that this battle was the most enjoyable in his life.
There is certainly not much sense of achievement in dealing with enemies with low combat power. However, the feeling of satisfaction brought by watching the various vicious traps on the defense lines being absorbed by the enemy is unparalleled.
"If the lord hadn't been superior in skills, how many loyal and brave soldiers would have suffered casualties due to these cunning tricks?" Just relying on these thieves who were unable to hurt their own people?
Now, they are doing it to themselves.
In this special environment, even Zhao Yun, who was as calm as Zhao Yun, gradually lost his sense of direction and time after turning the thirteenth corner.
Although there is no more smoke behind, the series of rafts on the river are still working hard, like pioneers, sending large puffs of smoke to the other end of the valley.
It¡¯s not that Cao Jun never thought that he should try to pull these bamboo rafts closer or overturn them directly. But whenever they make an effort, they will find a group of defeated troops in front of them, followed by a group of mighty warriors chasing after them like wolves and tigers.
Just like that, after passing through countless mountain passes, there was finally light ahead.
Have you arrived at the mouth of the valley? Zhao Yun subconsciously slowed down, trying to observe something from the reaction of the defeated troops. However, the defeated soldiers seemed to be completely numb. They neither accelerated nor asked for help. They still maintained their original speed and ran forward in a daze.
A large sound of breathing and heavy footsteps sounded behind him, and Zhao Yun even felt the slightly confused looks of his subordinates. Indeed, even if we have reached the entrance of the valley and there are enemies preparing for battle outside, there is nothing to hesitate. Rolling back the bead curtain and driving the defeated troops into the formation is the only way to pursue victory.
However, the premonition that was born and has become instinctive gave a reminder. Zhao Yun knew that there was danger ahead!
"Dang! Dang! Dang!" The sound of gongs suddenly exploded, and then, Zhao Yun saw the overwhelming arrows, a large black mass, reflecting the soul-stirring cold light!
Use feather arrows to kill your own defeated troops to prevent them from attacking the formation! The most ruthless decision, but also the most rational way to deal with it!
In the blink of an eye, Zhao Yun's body reacted instinctively, and the silver gun turned into a ball of light, hitting the sky with arrows that could not move forward.
The pop of arrows entering the body and the screams of the wounded or dying resounded throughout the valley. The thieves, who were chased by the tiger behind them and were breathless, finally had a chance to escape, but the friendly forces outside the valley could not The indiscriminate shooting between the enemy and ourselves resulted in heavy casualties. QingzhouHowever, under the protection of the general's keen intuition and amazing martial arts, the army only suffered a small number of casualties.
However, the cruelty and ruthlessness of the enemy generals still filled Zhao Yun, who valued justice, with righteous indignation.
No matter what the battle situation is, Paoze is still Paoze. Zhao Yun will never agree with the idea that sacrificing a small number of people will achieve the majority. This is just an excuse for a coward to give his own selfish interests!
Wang Yu pulled off the mask on his face, took a deep breath, and asked in a soliloquy voice: "Why should a person who is so merciless to Bao Ze come to rule the world?" (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, novels are better Update faster!)
