    As soon as Yan Gang died, Gongsun Zan's middle assault force lost its command. Soon the entire army was defeated and could no longer pose any threat to Yuan's army.  .

    Qu Yi¡¯s troops continued to clean the battlefield and warn of incoming enemies, while Yan Liang immediately commanded the troops to change the shooting target and focused the crossbow arrows on Gongsun Fan¡¯s troops.  As for the assault force commanded by Gongsun Zan himself, it was handed over to Wen Chou's troops who followed up to intercept it.

    This is also a no choice. In terms of combat effectiveness, Gongsun Zan's White Horse Yi Cong has stronger combat effectiveness and brings greater lethality.  However, relatively speaking, their ability to withstand strikes is also stronger, and it is very likely that they can withstand the heavy blows brought by the crossbow troops and rush into the Yuan army's main formation.  When the time comes and Gongsun Fan's troops are on the side to respond, the Yuan family will be defeated like a mountain.  Rather than doing this, it would be better to defeat Gongsun Fan's troops first, and then concentrate all his efforts on dealing with Gongsun Zan.

    At this time, more than 300 strong crossbow troops, which had been maintaining high-intensity shooting, had malfunctioned, or the bowstrings had broken, or the machinery had been damaged, and they had lost the ability to continue fighting.  While Yan Liang was organizing emergency repairs, he was directing the remaining nearly 700 powerful crossbows to fire.

    In fact, judging from Gongsun Fan¡¯s ability, he did not have the ability to command an army alone. But who made him a relative of Gongsun Zan?  Now under the constant fire from Yan Liang's troops, Gongsun Fan immediately panicked.  Especially when his bodyguards were shot by arrows and fell off their horses one after another, the general, who looked bold and free and easy, was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat and subconsciously turned his horse's head and fled to the outskirts of the battlefield.

    The generals were so frightened that they fled, not to mention the soldiers under him.  Especially those Hu people who returned to Yiyi originally joined Gongsun Zan's army because of the strong military pressure from his troops. Now that they saw that the situation was not good and there was no one to supervise them, these guys immediately left.

    It was just a few volleys, but before Yan Liang and the others could react, Gongsun Fan's troops scattered like birds and beasts.  Everyone was dumbfounded. This was so unprofessional!

    Gongsun Zan did not expect that his army of servants would be so unresistant. However, in order to avoid the possible arrows fired by Yuan Jun, Gongsun Zan's troops had already increased their horse speed to the highest speed. It was too late to temporarily slow down and turn, which would only lead to greater chaos.  , it¡¯s better to keep rushing forward.

    Gongsun Zan raised his double-headed iron spear high and shouted loudly: "Get ready to strike!"

    In fact, even if he doesn¡¯t shout, everyone knows it.  The three columns of cavalry rushing at the front had spontaneously clamped their horses and drew their short axes.  These soldiers in the front row were almost all soldiers who had committed serious crimes and were demoted to the punishment camps. They were screaming loudly, both to embolden themselves and to frighten the reinforcements on the opposite side.

    Wen Chou shouted loudly: "Stand firm, hold on! The supervising team is on standby!"

    Hearing his cry, the sword and shield players pressed their bodies behind their shields and suppressed their steps with all their strength.  The spearmen put their spears on their shields and pressed the spears upwards, while the soldiers of the supervising team also drew their swords and stood in the formation.

    Seeing that the distance was getting closer and closer, the soldiers in the front row of Gongsun Zan's army laughed ferociously and threw the short ax in their hands hard, hitting Yuan's soldiers hard.  Ignoring the carnage caused by the hatchet, they immediately removed the spear from the victory hook on the side of the saddle and clamped it tightly.

    "The soldiers on Wen Chou's side couldn't help but panic after being hit by hundreds of short axes.  At this time, Wen Chou had no time to adjust his formation, so he just shouted loudly: "Hold on!"

    Bang!  !  !

    The shield bearers of Yuan Saber who were facing the cavalry were hit by the horses and flew out almost at the same time. Only a few lucky ones were able to stand on the spot. They were already spitting out blood and fell to the ground dejectedly.

    Yuan Jun's spearmen made great achievements. The spears in their hands plunged hard into the horses or bodies of the cavalry on the opposite side. However, the strong collision force shattered their tiger's mouths, and most of the gun barrels could not withstand the impact.  , suddenly broke into two pieces!  The spearmen had no time to retreat, and were knocked away on the spot by the charging cavalry, or were smashed underneath by the bodies!

    Taking advantage of Yuan Jun's formation being disrupted, Gongsun Zan's troops who were rushing behind gently lifted their reins, bypassed the pile of corpses in front, and slammed in fiercely.

    At this time, almost all the shield bearers and spearmen in the front row were wiped out, and the spearmen hiding behind them were also dispersed from the formation. Some soldiers were so shocked by this tragic scene that they actually dropped their spears and went to the formation.  Then rushed away.

    Wen Chou shouted loudly: "Supervise the battle team!"

    After hearing his order, Wen Chou's personal guards immediately raised their swords and swung them forward with all their strength.  While waving their swords, they shouted loudly: "Go back! Go back!"

    "About forty or fifty people were hit by the knife, wasn't it?"To be hacked to death means to be severely wounded. When the remaining defeated soldiers saw that the supervising team really dared to take action, they did not dare to flee to the rear.  Those who are lucky can run to both sides of the formation, but those who are unlucky can only roar and rush towards the path of the cavalry charge!

    Gongsun Zan shouted loudly: "White horse Yi Cong, charge!"

    Hearing his shout, the soldiers urged their horses with all their strength and galloped quickly.  During the charge, someone shouted loudly, regardless of the cold wind in front of them: "Where justice comes, life and death follow! The sky can tell you, and the white horse is the proof!"

    Listening to the thunderous shouts in his ears, Gongsun Zan laughed loudly and kept thrusting out the iron spear in his hand. Every time he attacked, he would kill someone!

    Under his leadership, Baima Yicong seemed to have been given an injection of excitement and exerted his super combat power. He was stunned and beat Wen Chou's soldiers back again and again, and the situation suddenly became dangerous.

    At this critical moment, Wen Chou shouted loudly: "Give my eldest brother Yan Liang a signal and ask him to cover my front line and shoot!"

    Hearing his order, the flag-bearer was stunned for a moment, and his hands and feet were even trembling.  Seeing that the flag bearer did not immediately carry out his order, Wen Chou jumped up to him and kicked him out. Then he personally raised the liaison flag agreed with Yan Liang and waved it several times while looking in the direction of his front line!

    Seeing the news from Wen Chou, the flag soldiers immediately reported it to Yan Liang, and Yan Liang couldn't help but frowned.

    He jumped on his horse and looked not far away, and saw that Wen Chou's front army had been completely routed and could no longer maintain its defense line.  Although Wen Chou's rear army was still nervously moving forward for reinforcements, they could not stabilize the battle situation for a while.

    Yan Liang sighed and said loudly: "Reply to Wen Chou and say that I understand. Send the order, the target Gongsun Zan is on a white horse, and shoot with all your strength!"

    Hearing his order, the soldiers immediately pushed their crossbows and aimed at Baima Yicong, but looking at Pao Ze fighting with the cavalry in the distance, they still couldn't make a move.  However, seeing that Yan Liang had no intention of revoking the order, Marching Sima shouted loudly: "Shoot!"

    Bang bang bang bang bang!

    The machine is constantly being triggered, and the crossbow machine is constantly firing crossbow arrows, making a continuous sound!

    Gongsun Zan's troops, who were fighting with Yuan's army, did not expect that they would be attacked by crossbow arrows. They were caught off guard and fell to the ground unwillingly.

    Seeing his loyal men being shot and killed one after another, Gongsun Zan roared angrily, and the double-headed iron spears in his hands danced like windmills. Each dance took away a life of Yuan Jun's soldiers!

    However, at this moment, Wen Chou raised his iron bow, and the long eagle-feather arrow in his hand quietly aimed at Gongsun Zan.

    Taking advantage of the opportunity when Gongsun Zan thrust out his iron spear and his chest was free, Wen Chou sneered and fired decisively!

    Gongsun Zan is such a good man. Although he is defenseless, he still instinctively feels a hint of danger after years of fighting.  At this time, he didn't have time to dodge, so he just jerked the reins. The war horse was so choked that it instinctively turned its head to the side. Wen Chou's arrow hit the horse in the middle of the forehead!

    The war horse let out a mournful cry, swayed suddenly, and fell to the ground.

    Gongsun Zan quickly jumped to the side from his horse, but before he could land, Wen Chou's second and third arrows came again!

    There was no way to borrow strength from the air, but Gongsun Zan turned his head in a daze, and let the long arrow aimed at his neck miss in vain!  But in this case, he didn't have time to dodge the third arrow, so he could only try his best to turn his body sideways to avoid the vital point in his chest!

    "ah!"

    Wen Chou's arrow originally aimed at Gongsun Zan's heart, but he avoided it and only hit Gongsun Zan's right chest.  Gongsun Zan couldn't help shouting and squatted on the ground!

    Seeing the advantage, the surrounding Yuan Jun officers and soldiers quickly gathered around and killed Gongsun Zan!  When the soldiers under Gongsun Zan saw that their general was injured, they rushed to rescue him.  Around the place where Gongsun Zan fell, soldiers from both sides fought desperately, forming a whirlpool of death!

    In this way, no one cares about protecting the trumpeter and flag bearer. Gongsun Zan's four flag bearers and the soldiers protecting the flag were killed one after another in the melee.  As a result, Gongsun Zan's army lost its command.

    Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wen Chou shouted loudly: "Gongsun Zan is dead! Gongsun Zan is dead!"

    Hearing his cry, the guards around him shouted loudly: "General, Gongsun Zan is dead! General, Gongsun Zan is dead!"

    Hearing the shouts of Wen Chou's guards, Yuan Jun's officers repeated excitedly: "General, Gongsun Zan is dead, we have won!"

    Gongsun Zan¡¯s officers and men quickly looked toward the Chinese army, but the Chinese army was in chaos and no one responded at all.  The flag bearers in Gongsun Zan's army had been killed long ago and were unable to raise the flag to signal.

    ?Gongsun Zan endured his wounds and shouted loudly: "I am not dead, Gongsun Zan, don't listen to the rumors spread by the enemy!"

    However, the voice he roared out after being seriously injured could not travel very far among the thousands of troops.  The surrounding guards were only concerned with protecting his safety, and did not think of repeating his shouts. They just fought with all their strength.

    Seeing the lack of response from the Chinese army, many people in Gongsun Zan's army believed the news that Gongsun Zan was dead, especially those who had just joined Baima Yicong, and lost all confidence and courage.  They abandoned the opponents in front of them, turned their horses and fled, shouting loudly as they fled: "Lost! Defeated!"

    As soon as they ran away, the infantry were even more confused about the situation. Seeing Gongsun Zan's flag falling, the infantry suddenly burst into an uproar, dropped their armor and weapons, and fled blindly to the rear!  Gongsun Zan's army collapsed!
