Du Fu once wrote in the poem "Fire": The wind blows the huge flames, and the river rises with a pillar of smoke. The vulgar burns Kunlun, and the light fills the continent. The fishy snake is scorched, and the roar haunts the tiger. The fetish has flown high, and there is no stone or earth to be seen.

Gongsun Zhan hadn't heard of this poem, and he didn't even know who Du Fu was, but if he was holding a bald pen instead of a horse lance in his hand at this moment, I believe he would be able to write a similar poem.

Looking at the blazing fire and dark clouds of smoke from miles away, and listening to the screams and screams coming from the fire and smoke, two lines of tears flowed from Gongsun Zhan's eyes.

The two brothers, Gongsun Fan and Gongsun Yue, had just returned to the city a quarter of an hour ago, and he knew all the news outside the city. The rebel lord of that building, Yan Gang and Shan died in battle, but Zou Dan and Tian Kai used their bodies and blood to station the last line of defense for him and chose to die with Yuan Shao's main army.

The fire became more and more intense, and the wailing in the distance became smaller and smaller, and Gongsun Zhan's heart sank deeper and deeper. He hated why he didn't listen to the advice of Zou Dan and others, and he also hated why he listened to Liu Weitai's opinion.

Although he was stubborn and self-serving, he had also been on the battlefield for many years, and of course he knew that it might be the most correct thing for Zou Dan and Yan Gang and others to persuade him to leave Yijing, but he had no choice. He reused Liu Weitai, Li Yizi, Le Hedang and others, and even swore brothers with them, but he actually just wanted to support the other side to fight against Zou Dan and others.

Although Liu Weitai and the three of them have no power in the army, they have a lot of money, and they only have him as the backstage, so they can only be firmly tied to their chariots. In the past hundreds of years, whether it is the pre-Qin or the Han court, hasn't it been operated like this? Aren't they all about balance as a treasure?

It's a pity that he can't wait for that day, and his balancing technique has completely defeated him under Yuan Shao's men.

"Did Wuyan and Lou Ban catch it?" Listening to the footsteps behind him, Gongsun Chan asked without replying, he knew that this was his brother Gongsun Fan and Gongsun Yue, and he had just learned the news of the traitor in that building and let these two go to the general's mansion in Wuyan.

Gongsun Fan and Gongsun Yue shook their heads and sighed: "Big brother, Wuyan dog thief and Lou Ban led dozens of wolf riders to leave the General's Mansion more than half an hour ago, and the captain of Shicai City Gate came to report that the two dog thieves had left Yijing with the general's order, and now there are only hundreds of whirlwind riders left in Wuyan Mansion. ”

Hunting geese all day long, but now he is pecked by geese, no one

Unexpectedly, Wu Yan and Na Lou, the two personal guard leaders, turned out to be the last straw that crushed his Gongsun Zhan.

Gongsun Zhan felt aggrieved for a while, Zou Dan, Yan Gang, Tian Kai and Shan Jing and other brothers had already been loyal to him, but he could only watch the perpetrator leave quietly, he had to give Zou Dan and them an explanation, otherwise they would meet under the spring in the future, how could you make him embarrassed?

"Take down Liu Weitai, Li Yizi and Le Hedang, and send the generals on their last journey with their heads!" Gongsun Zhan retreated and asked for the second, explained a few words to the soldiers beside him, and then turned to Gongsun Fan and the others, "The camp fire in the north, Zou Dan and Tian Kai died in battle, presumably most of Yuan Shao's army has been buried in the fire, the second brother and the third brother, you two quickly go to rectify the army and follow me out of the city after half an hour." ”

"Out of town?" The two of them are confused, shouldn't they stick to it at this time?

Gongsun Zhan nodded and continued: "Although Brother Zou Dan blocked the path of Ju Yi and the others with a fire, after all, how could tens of thousands of horses be burned, not to mention that Ju Yi, Chun Yuqiong and others have been fighting in the world for several years, and they are the most able to grasp the opportunity of the battlefield, not comparable to ordinary soldiers.

If my guess is correct, I believe they must have escaped from the flames and are preparing to take revenge on us in a frenzied manner! Third brother, after we get out of the city, you lead Xu'er to turn due west, from Fanyang to Yanmen via Zhongshan to find Wang Deyu to avenge me, and the second brother will go straight to Youzhou with me, if I don't die in the future, I will compete with Yuan Shao again! ”

"Wang Deyu, will he take me and Xu'er?"

"Of course, Wang Deyu is a hero in the world, and no matter what my previous relationship with him was, at least he will never refuse to send him to the door in the name of the teacher!"

……

Zou Dan burned the northern camp to a fine light, and when Gongsun Chan and others arrived, the camp had already become a ruin, full of devastation and charcoal, the remaining embers were still crackling and burning, and there was a faint smell of barbecue in the smoke.

"Let's go!"

Gongsun Zhan searched for a long time and did not find the remains of Zou Dan and Tian Kai, shook his head helplessly and said to everyone and wanted to leave, suddenly a drum horn sounded rapidly from behind the hill in front, and the dense sound was like a rainstorm hitting pear blossoms and falling plantains, hitting everyone's hearts heavily.

"Gongsun Lao'er, where are you going?"

With a long shout, several people turned out from both sides of the hillock,

The people who led it were Ju Yi, Na Lou, Han Meng, Chun Yuqiong and Zhao Zhao, but Jiang Yiqu, Jiang Qi and Wei Yuanjin and others were nowhere to be found. There are only more than 10,000 soldiers left behind them, and all of them are black-faced and black-handed, as if they have just returned from digging coal in Xishan.

"Humph! Ju Yi, where do you want to go today, I'm afraid you won't be able to stop it! Gongsun Chan let out a long roar, nodded to Gongsun Yue and Gongsun Xu, and the horse lance immediately rushed forward to Ju Yi, and the Gongsun Fan, Guan Jing, Wang Shun and Lin Jian and others behind him also followed him and swept forward like a tide.

The sun covers the enemy like a cloud, and the arrows and fallen soldiers compete for the first.

Gongsun Yue took Gongsun Xu to the west, but Gongsun Chan had already been killed with Ju Yi, Na Lou and others.

But see:

The general is as fierce as a tiger, and the soldiers are as anxious as a leopard.

The general is as fierce as a tiger, Gongsun Zhan, Gongsun Fan are the enemies of Ju Yi and Na Lou, Guan Jing, Wang Shun, Lin Tie and Han Meng, Chun Yuqiong, and lead the moves, the sword and the halberd fall and fly, and the move goes straight to the top of the enemy's head to cover, and the style brings blood into the air;

The soldiers were as anxious as leopards, and a team of Jizhou elite soldiers urged the spears and short blades in their hands to shout and slash at the thieves in front of them.

With you without me, with me without him, more than 20,000 soldiers on both sides fought desperately in this ruin, only to kill the sky and the earth, the sun and the moon were dark, the blood was severed and limbs were flying, and knives, guns, arrows and spears fell together.

After about half an hour, I heard several screams in the array, and several figures crashed into the horse. Gongsun Zhan was the only one left under the banner of the two brothers, he and Gongsun Fan, and Ju Yi's side also injured Zhao and the two of them, but fortunately, the soldiers fought to get it back, so they were not trampled into mud by the horses.

Ju Yi snorted coldly and tightened the single knife in his hand, pointing straight ahead: "Gongsun Lao'er, what else do you have to say, you still dare to boast of being invincible in Youyan in the past, I see that you can only dominate in the underworld today!" ”

"A little heroic, looking around! Ju Yi, although Lao Tzu is not as cunning as you, but it is not something that you can put your beak at will, if it weren't for Chief Hu'er betraying Lao Tzu, how could Lao Tzu let you get out alive in today's war! ”

Gongsun Chan turned his head to look at the west, Gongsun Yue and Gongsun Xu had already disappeared at the end of the road, laughed, nodded with Gongsun Fan, and the reins in his hand were suddenly inserted into the Ju Yi army like a moth to a fire.
