Chapter 558

The measures taken by Lu Bu were one step late. Many people in the city had fled, most of the people in the countryside had fled, and nothing else was left in other cities. If they were a few days later, it would be estimated that more than three million people in Xuzhou would have fled.

The people of Xuzhou did not escape in many directions. There were Cao Cao's jurisdiction next to them. The people did not dare to enter Cao Cao's jurisdiction at all, and they were worried that Cao Cao would kill them. Of course, even if they fled to Cao Cao's jurisdiction, Cao Cao had no food to resettle them. Cao Cao himself could not even guarantee military rations. How could he share the food for the fleeing people? The other direction was Yuan Shu's Shouchun, which was also a good place, but Yuan Shu was unwilling to take in more people. He was also afraid that refugees would compete for food, so he had to send a large army to stop the people on the border and prohibit the people of Xuzhou from entering. Many people smuggled into the Lujiang area and knew that it was the jurisdiction of Big Bear. Big Bear would take in them and resettle them, so they would live a better life after they got there.

Xu Huang, Donglai County, received the order from Lu Ning and the General Staff Department, did not miss it for a moment. He immediately mobilized warships, gathered troops, and set off from the water to Qu Island. Xu Huang's purpose was very clear, which was to transport a large number of fleeing people, and at all costs, the people who fled Xuzhou were transported out of safety and sent to Lu Ning's jurisdiction.

Xu Huang mobilized 10,000 troops, including 5,000 soldiers of Feixiong Army and 5,000 soldiers of the Brutal Bear Army. After they docked, the soldiers were immediately sent to the shore of Qu County to maintain and protect the safety of refugees, especially to deal with the pursuit of the people by Lu Bu's army. Of course, Lu Bu now has no energy to control the fleeing people. He is now defending Cao Cao's 100,000 troops.

Xu Huang brought hundreds of large transport ships, each with a short-distance transport capacity of more than 1,000 people, and the large transport ships could only transport two or three thousand people. The entire Qu Island was crowded with people, and there were thousands of people coming from all over the country. Some brought their children and daughters, and Cheng Village, Cheng Village, rushed towards Qu Island, for fear that no one would be able to accept it if it was too late and could not enter Lu Ning's jurisdiction.

Xu Huang's 10,000 troops were responsible for maintaining order and protecting the safety of the people. He was also responsible for distributing food to the fleeing people. Especially, he was highly vigilant about the army under Lu Bu in the East China Sea and Xia Pi area, and they would attack at any time. After all, this is Lu Bu's territory. If Lu Bu kills him desperately, these people will suffer.

The work of transporting the people is proceeding in an orderly manner. In order to satisfy the daily food of refugees, Qu Island has stored a large amount of food and supplies. But there are too many people who fled. It is really difficult to complete such a task in a very short time. The most troublesome thing is that many people bring all the jars and jars at home. How can they get on the boat? They can only persuade the people to discard them. But if you ask them to discard the items they have worked hard to buy, it is more difficult than killing their lives. These things are their belongings, so how can they give up casually?

Xu Huang's civil servants, counselors and soldiers had to persuade the people with great sincerity, telling them that when they reached their goal, the government would equip them with these daily necessities for free, and even various production tools, grain, and oxen would be equipped for free. Their housing was also built for them for free. They just had to leave naked and useless, and they would have everything after they arrived.

Under the persuasion of the officers and soldiers, a large number of people listened to their words and threw away the jars and jars and jars and jars and jars and jars. A small number of people did not abandon them any more, which made the whole work very slow. If the soldiers forced their foolish guys to smash them, it would cause conflict. This made it very difficult for the officers and soldiers under Xu Huang to deal with it and did not dare to hit them. This was not allowed by the Lu Ning Border Law.

The warships under Xu Huang were transporting endlessly, entering and leaving, and the Qudao Wharf was very busy. The transport ships transported the people one by one under the escort of the warships, regardless of day or night, and the officers and soldiers were in a tense work.

I was really afraid of anything. Hou Cheng, who was stationed in Donghai County, received an order from Chen Gong, asking him to lead a large army to escort the people who wanted to escape from Xuzhou back to his former residence. Now there are fewer and fewer people in Xuzhou. Lu Bu, the 25th Five, didn't care about it, and he didn't know how to harm it. Chen Gong, who was very smart and intelligent, knew very well. What should he do in the future if there were no people? Even if Cao Cao's army was repelled, there would not be many people in Xuzhou. So who will plant crops? Produce grain? Who will build a city? Besides, the replenishment of soldiers also requires a large population. How can no one recruit soldiers?

Chen Gong spent a lot of time and energy to persuade Lu Bu to ask Hou Cheng to send troops to escort the fleeing people back home. After receiving the order, Hou Cheng immediately went out to have a 20,000 army, including 15,000 county magistrates, and 5,000 were Lu Bu's field army, that is, regular troops came to attack the people gathered near Qu County, where hundreds of thousands were waiting to be transported.

The situation was extremely critical. Hundreds of thousands of people were unable to transfer their fortunes for the time being, and they were all on the shore. They would be attacked by Hou Cheng's army at any time. Xu Huang had no choice but to leave five thousand soldiers of the Brutal Bear Army to maintain order and protect the people. He personally led five thousand soldiers of the Flying Bear Army to fight Hou Cheng's 20,000 troops.

Xu Huang did not miss it for a moment, and immediately led five thousand flying bears to kill Hou Cheng's army who rushed over. Just as the decisive battle was about to be fought, Xu Huang received information from the scouts, saying that Song Xian in Xiapi City also received an order from Lu Bu and led a 10,000 army to gallop towards the people gathered in Qu County. This is a big trouble, and we can't divide the troops to deal with it, right? If we divide the troops, we will only be killed.

Xu Huang couldn't care so much, so he had to deal with Hou Cheng's 20,000 troops and repeated, and then turned around to reinforce the defenders in Qu County. After making up his mind, Xu Huang immediately ordered the army to advance quickly and destroy Hou Cheng's 20,000 troops at all costs. It can no longer be carried out in the conventional way of combat, time will not wait for anyone, otherwise too many people will die.

Xu Huang didn't care whether Hou Cheng's army had set up a formation. His purpose was to resolve the battle in the shortest time. Xu Huang took the lead in patting the war horse and daring to kill the enemy formation. When he entered the shooting range of crossbow arrows, Xu Huang waved his hand, and five thousand crossbows pulled the machine one after another. In an instant, 50,000 crossbow arrows flew quickly into Hou Cheng's army formation like raindrops.

The shield formation formed by Hou Chenggang was mostly hung with crossbow arrows without any effect. Hou Cheng's soldiers only saw the rain of arrows coming from the sky, as fast as a meteor, and many soldiers ascended to the sky before they could react. The soldiers in the formation complained and the blood was flying everywhere, and blood flowers were floating in the sky.

In just a moment, Hou Cheng's military formation was in chaos, and thousands of lives rose to heaven, and soldiers ran around, especially the wave of county magistrates. When they first entered the battle formation, they were frightened by the brutal killing. Some soldiers even had their pants scared out of urine and shit. There was an inauspicious smell floating in Hou Cheng's military formation.

Xu Huang had been through the battlefield for a long time, how could he miss such a good opportunity? He immediately led a large army of pillar-shaped cavalry formations to rush into. Most of the spearmen in Hou Cheng's front row were killed and injured by the baptism of crossbows. Now it is a mess, and it is a good time for the cavalry to rush.

Hou Cheng's army was hit by Xu Huang's five thousand flying bears, and the soldiers were frightened and ran away. Xu Huang and his subordinates kept harvesting each other's lives with their sabers in their hands. This was killing, a naked massacre. They did not take human lives seriously at all. They just thought that they were killing kittens and dogs, and they were fierce and were fatal and ruthless.

In just half an hour, Hou Cheng fled with his subordinates who could not even have no choice but to escape. Hou Cheng was also frightened by the murderous aura of Feixiong Army. He cried loudly and had no effect at all. There was no way, so he had to take the lead in running away. If Xu Huang was entangled, it would be difficult to escape.

After Xu Huang's army repelled Hou Cheng's 20,000 army, they did not pursue him. They had no time to continue chasing him, so they had to release Hou Cheng and his soldiers first. Xu Huang did not stop, turned his head and turned back to the place where refugees gathered in Qu County.

At this time, Quxian gathered on the shore that was difficult to match. Five thousand soldiers of the storm soldiers left behind formed a Roman rifle formation and were resisting the attack of Song Xian's 10,000 cavalry. Under the shooting of crossbow arrows, nearly two,000 cavalry under Song Xian's 10,000 cavalry had already been killed, and the remaining eight thousand cavalry continued to rush forward.

The huge shield formation was erected high, and guns that were more than four meters long were set up on the shield. Behind the shield there were crossbow archers holding up a crossbow and shooting at the iron cavalry under Song Xian.

With a loud bang, Song Xian's iron cavalry crashed into the shield formation of the Brutal Bear Army. The soldiers on the horse were assassinated by the spearmen, and the war horses knocked over the shield before they died. The other shield soldiers immediately replaced the position and made the shield formation complete. The spearmen behind the shield were constantly assassinating with the spear in their hands. The crossbow archers next to them kept pulling the crossbow machine, allowing the crossbow arrows in the crossbow to fly into the cavalry formation in front.

Originally, infantry had no chance of winning against cavalry, and even if they were to be used, they had to pay a huge price. However, the Beast Bear Army was a very proud soldier of Lu Ning. The gun formation formed by the Beast Bear Army was a Roman phalanx, with extraordinary lethality and was specially used to deal with cavalry. In addition, the giant shield in the Beast Bear Army made the Roman phalanx stand upside down, causing huge damage to the cavalry under Song Xian.

Song Xian once again urged the iron cavalry to rush in. The soldiers of the Brutal Bear Army were orderly and strictly defended. After the spearmen were assassinated ten consecutive times, they would retreat and be replaced by the spearmen behind them in turn, which ensured the lethality of the spearmen. After all, every time the spearmen stabbed a shot, they would spend a lot of effort, which would consume a lot of physical energy.

Just when the two armies were intertwined and there was no victory or defeat, Xu Huang's Feixiong Army arrived. Xu Huang's Feixiong Army was in charge of whether the physical strength of the soldiers under his command could still be maintained. In this case, Xu Huang had no time to let the soldiers rest. They could only let the soldiers play their fine traditions for many years, play their fighting spirit of continuous combat, not afraid of fatigue or hardship, and persevere with their will. This is Lu Ning's army.

Song Xian didn't expect Xu Huang to come back so quickly. After all, Hou Cheng had an army of 20,000, so why did he fail all at once? How could this be possible? He thought that Xu Huang gave up fighting Hou Cheng's army and turned back to the savior. If that were the case, as long as he could withstand for a while and persevere until Hou Cheng's army arrived, Xu Huang would be completely finished.

Song Xian thought that Hou Cheng's 20,000 army was indeed defeated. If he did not retreat, his fate would be in trouble. Whether he could escape was a problem. Don't think about how to destroy Xu Huang's army.

Xu Huang ignored it and directly led the flying bear army to form a geese-shaped cavalry formation to hit the general. When entering the shooting range of the crossbow arrows, there was also a wave of arrow rain, and the opponent was given a little raindrop first. After a wave of arrow rain, Song Xian's iron cavalry left behind more than a thousand. In addition to the losses in the decisive battle, his iron cavalry had dropped from 10,000 cavalry to more than 5,000 cavalry, and he suffered a loss in the comparison of troops. He wanted to eliminate Xu Huang, which was a daydream.

The Feixiong Army led by Xu Huang came from behind Song Xian, making the iron cavalry under Song Xian unable to turn around to resist. Some were cut into two pieces by the sabers in the hands of the Feixiong soldiers before they turned around. Song Xian's formation was knocked to the east and west by Xu Huang's army, and the soldiers shouted Bian Tian. When the soldiers of the Brutal Bear Army who were still on the defense just now saw the reinforcements arrive, they immediately changed the formation, changed from the Roman gun detection formation to the Little Six Flower Formation, and rolled into Song Xian's iron cavalry.

During the fierce battle, Song Xian received the fast horse sent by Hou Cheng, and then he realized that Hou Cheng's 20,000 troops were finished and he was still fighting to the death. Isn't this an idiot act? If he didn't retreat, his 10,000 iron cavalry would really stay. If he evacuated now, he could at least save two or three thousand iron cavalry to return to Xia Pi City. After Song Xian figured it out, he immediately led his subordinates to retreat quickly. This is not the time to fight desperately, and if he stays again, there will be big trouble.

At this time, Xu Huang ignored his fatigue and continued to lead the Feixiong Army soldiers to chase Song Xian and his cavalry, and continued to chase for more than ten kilometers before he stopped. The battle was over, and more than 1,300 casualties were achieved, most of them were soldiers of the Brutal Bear Army, including more than 600 seriously injured or killed. This also possessed excellent armor, helmets and superb weapons and equipment. Otherwise, how could there be only such casualties in such a battle, and there might be any possibility of being crippled.

In World War II, nearly 10,000 soldiers were killed, and thousands of injured were killed. Only more than 10,000 people fled back with the two, and the rest were probably a little lost.

More than ten days later, Xu Huang finally completed the task of transporting the people. This time, more than 900,000 people fled from Xuzhou, and hundreds of thousands of others were unknown. Anyway, there are at most 1.5 million people in Xuzhou, and the rest have fled.
