Chapter seven forty seven
If you can observe the entire battlefield from the perspective of God now, you will definitely find that the Jizhou army under Huang Zhong's command is breaking through quickly in six directions.
Among them, a group of nearly 10,000 people in the rear army had the fastest speed.
At this time, they were about to arrive. As long as they entered the dense forest, Yuan Shang and Ji Ling's men had to weigh the pros and cons of even if they wanted to pursue them.
Previously, the brothers Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang wanted to encircle and suppress the left and right wings of Huang Zhongjun, who had turned two into four, quickly left the battlefield from both sides of Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang's team.
The slowest marching was the team led by Huang Zhong himself. They did not leave the battlefield directly as soon as possible, but slowed down a little after the assembly.
When Huang Zhong discovered that Yuan Shang and Ji Ling's troops were already chasing them, he led his subordinates to retreat quickly to the west.
At this time, there was only a small area on the left side of Xuchang.
There were thousands of Huang Zhong soldiers who seemed to be unable to retreat there, who were being sieged by the Lu brothers.
According to their lord Yuan Shang's plan, after defeating Huang Zhong's left and right wings, Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang should have quickly followed them with their troops.
But unexpectedly, there was no large-scale battle in the rest of the place. Only the Lu brothers had to stay on the battlefield because they surrounded thousands of enemy troops.
However, the Lu brothers did not feel anything wrong at this time. They just kept commanding their subordinates to siege and kill the enemy troops that were still resisting.
According to their expectations, the two brothers had nearly 30,000 elite troops under their command, but it didn't take much effort to siege thousands of enemy troops.
But unexpectedly, after finding that these Jizhou soldiers had no way out, they burst out with extremely strong combat power after they found that they had no way out of retreat.
Until now, they didn't even have any advantage.
Just when the Lu brothers were secretly anxious, a violent shout of killing suddenly broke out in Xuchang City, and then the east gate of Xuchang City was opened quickly.
Nearly 30,000 troops rushed out of Xuchang City. Under the leadership of a general, they quickly headed towards the place where the battle was still taking place.
The Lu brothers looked closely and found that the person who came was their former colleague Jiao Chu.
It is obvious that Jiao Chu must have received the order from the second son Yuan Xi to support the two brothers.
Although it was embarrassing to be supported by more and less, the Lu brothers had no idea at this time and refused Yuan Xi's kindness.
Because until now, they still think that they can wipe out the surrounded enemies faster, so that they can get a share of the subsequent battle to encircle and annihilate Huang Zhong!
"The two generals, the last general, came to help each other with the order of the lord and general!"
"Haha, it turns out it's General Jiao Chu. We brothers are really ashamed! We even want you to help us deal with so few enemy troops. When this matter is over, you and my brothers must drink it well!"
"What are you talking about? If it weren't for the timely help of the second and third young masters, Xuchang City might have fallen into the hands of the old thief Huang Zhong! The two of you are unforgettable, Jiao Chu and the lord will never forget you. Let's stop saying such heretics!"
"Okay, General Jiao is such a cheerful person! If we brothers want to let our subordinates make a move, please ask General Jiao to take action quickly and help our brothers wipe out these hateful enemy troops!"
"I dare not ask for anything I wish!"
With the conversation between the three, the subordinates of the Lu brothers began to slowly give up a path.
When they gave up the passage, the Jizhou army that they besieged launched a fierce attack on this weak point.
Unfortunately, on the eve of their first passage being opened up, Jiao Chu's men quickly joined the ranks of besieging them.
The addition of the calorific touch part made the passage completely blocked again!
Seeing that he and others had no hope of life at all, the surrounded Jizhou soldiers burst out with powerful combat power again, and they saw them forming small battle formations in groups of three or five.
With the help of the battle formation, they actually fought against the enemy troops several times theirs.
However, if the situation continues to develop like this, they will sooner or later die under the siege of many enemy troops.
Just as the Lu brothers and Jiao Chu were fully encircling the surrounded Jizhou army, a group of people wearing Jizhou uniforms quietly turned from the north of Xuchang City.
They were extremely worried at first, looked at the surrounded brothers, and then a trace of firmness flashed in their eyes.
Soon, under the leadership of their own generals, they quickly touched towards the east gate of Xuchang City.
Previously, in order to get Jiao Chu, Yuan Xi joined the siege of the Jizhou army, and he ordered his subordinates to open the east gate of Xuchang City.
After Jiao Chu led his subordinates to leave, the east gate of Xuchang City was not completely closed, but just closed a little.
Because in Yuan Xi's heart, there was no other vassal army near Xuchang except for the Lu brothers, so his Xuchang city was as stable as Mount Tai.
Since there is no danger now, there is no need to close the city gate. Besides, if the burning is needed, it can also reduce some unnecessary time.
So now the east gate of Xuchang City is open, which gives the Jizhou army that has quietly come over.
When they approached the city gate, the Yuan Xi soldiers in the city still did not notice the danger.
However, with the rapid entry of these Jizhou troops, a chaos broke out in Xuchang City, which surprised the Jiao Chu and the Lu brothers who were encircling the enemy.
They didn't know what was going on, but following the sound from Xuchang City, an extremely solemn look appeared on their faces.
Especially Yuan Xi's general Jiao Chu, after hearing the huge riots coming from Xuchang City, his face immediately filled with panic.
As soon as he heard the riots, an idea immediately emerged in his mind, that is, the Jizhou army was back, and it should have entered Xuchang City at this time.
However, after he surrounded the battlefield for a week, he could not find any Jizhou army, which made him feel a little suspicious of his previous judgment.
But no matter whether his judgment is correct or not, he must send someone to return to the city immediately.
Otherwise, if Xuchang City is thrown away, he will really have no way to explain it to his future lord Cao Cao!
At this time, Yuan Xi, who was in Xuchang City, looked at the Jizhou troops in front of him with despair.
He didn't know how these people entered the city, but when he realized it, these people had already appeared in front of him.
In order to relieve the anger that had been surrounded for a long time in his heart, Yuan Shang cruelly sent more than 90% of his troops in the city. Now he regretted his previous decision!
