Chapter 840: Yuan Shao's Death

Gao Gan was born in the Chen Liugao family, and his father Gao Bow was the Taishou of Shu County.

The Gao family is also a famous family, and has an in-law relationship with the Yuan family in Runan, and Gao Gan's mother is Yuan Shao's sister, so Gao Gan wants to call Yuan Shao an uncle.

Yuan Shao also attaches great importance to his nephew, the senior cadre in history was once the assassin of the state after Yuan Shao's unification of the north, and the position of the assassin under Yuan Shao was held by several sons, so you can imagine how much the senior cadre was valued under Yuan Shao.

Even now, Gao Gan is also the Qingzhou Assassin appointed by Yuan Shao, responsible for all affairs in Qingzhou, and this time he came to support Yuan Shao, and he also brought all the soldiers and horses under Gao Gan.

The 20,000 army was under the command of Yuan Shao, and the two of them were personally commanded, and these soldiers and horses went straight to the place where Liu Zheng was.

Around Liu Zheng, there were only more than 10,000 people hired by Wen, and the 3,000 camps commanded by Lu Bu.

With the enemy's charge, Liu Zheng did not need to personally command the battle, after all, these soldiers and horses, only 20,000 people, were not enough to attract Liu Zheng's attention.

The more than 10,000 soldiers and horses led by Wen Ping are enough to deal with.

Wen Ping is now also a general under Liu Zheng who can recruit and fight, and when Yuan Jun began to act, he immediately took the initiative to command his soldiers and horses and began to confront Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses.

Liu Zheng only sat in the center, looked at the soldiers and horses on the battlefield, and began to attack each other.

Yuan Shao did not have any cavalry, they were all infantry, and the cavalry under him were all led by Wen Chou to attack Huai'an County.

There are only some high-ranking cadres around him, foot soldiers brought from Qingzhou, and these soldiers and horses meet the army under Wen Ping, so they are naturally not opponents of the same magnitude.

Although there are 20,000 people, they do not have any advantage under Wenpin.

However, at this time, Yuan Shao and Wen Ping were fighting under the city of Huai'an, and the movement was not small, and the distance in Huai'an City was not far, and Wen Chou and others on the city tower had been paying attention to the movements outside the city, so they naturally found out quickly.

Wen Chou saw the battle under the city, and knew that Yuan Shao came from Huaiyin City to support, where else did he think about anything, so he directly led 20,000 cavalry in the city with Jiang Qi to kill out of the city, preparing to support Yuan Shao, and jointly eliminated Liu Zheng's army outside the city in one fell swoop.

Originally, with the 20,000 horses of Yuan Shao's headquarters, there was naturally no chance of winning against these people hired above, but fortunately, there were 20,000 cavalry of Wen Chou in the city, and these 20,000 people were the 20,000 soldiers and horses who could really affect the battle situation.

After all, it is a cavalry, and it still has a strong deterrent ability on the battlefield, plus it is an army of 20,000 people, and it is a charge on a huge plain outside Huai'an City, as long as the command is good, it can really bring a lot of damage to Wenpin.

The sound of horses' hooves gradually came from the gates on both sides of Huai'an City.

Wen Chou did not open the city gate from the nearest city gate and let the cavalry in his own city rush out, but bypassed the nearest city gate and sent cavalry to charge from the city gates on the other side.

Only in this way can the cavalry be given some sufficient distance to be able to bring up a more powerful offensive.

Wen Ping's men and horses blocked these cavalry, but in fact, there were only half of them, barely 10,000 people.

It was not so easy to stop these cavalry, and after contact, these cavalry showed their strength.

A charge brought a great blow to the infantry under Wen Ping, but fortunately, the men and horses under Wen Ping were all trained and knew how to deal with the cavalry, and they formed a tight battle formation one by one, but they were not dispersed at the first time.

In this way, there was an opportunity to resist these cavalry.

Liu Zheng looked back, and his face changed slightly after noticing that some of the situation in the rear was at a disadvantage, but fortunately, these soldiers and horses who were fighting with Yuan Shao in front had a great advantage, and they had already killed more than half of Gao Gan's men.

Even Yuan Shao had been killed by some of the charging squads under Wen Ping, and Yuan Shao himself began to join the battle under the cover of several guards, personally holding a three-foot Qingfeng and riding a war horse to fight.

After seeing this scene, Liu Zheng's face immediately showed a hint of an evil smile.

He first turned his head and gave an order to Lu Bu beside him.

"General Fengxian, you immediately lead your subordinates to the trap camp to stop Wen Chou, be sure to block Wen Chou, don't let his cavalry approach the main battlefield!"

"Yes! Your Majesty! ”

After receiving the order, Lu Bu immediately nodded, holding Fang Tian's halberd, and took Gao Shun directly to the rear battlefield to kill, intending to support those foot soldiers.

After Lu Bu left, Liu Zheng immediately glanced at the other commander, Zhang Min.

Liu Zheng has always had three under him, and the Jinyi guard commanded the envoy.

One positive, two pairs.

It is Yuan Zhou, generally Yuan Zhou will not leave the Imperial Jianye, he must deal with all kinds of news from all over the country in Jianye, and then summarize and pass it to Liu Zheng.

The other two deputy commanders of the Jinyi Guard followed Liu Zheng's side, one of these two was Dian Wei who was in charge of the guard, and the other was Zhang Min who was in charge of intelligence and assassination.

Zhang Min has never reflected his ability, but this time Liu Zheng felt that his opportunity had come.

Liu Zheng immediately called out to Zhang Min, and Zhang Min led the order to Liu Zheng's side.

"What does Your Majesty command?"

"Zhang Min, do you see that Yuan Shao? At this time, he has been surrounded by our army, although he is still resisting stubbornly, as long as he is killed, this battle will be completely over, I heard that you are good at assassination, and today I will let you show your performance to kill that Yuan Shao. ”

Liu Zheng appointed people on the basis of merit, and gave an order to Zhang Min in one sentence.

Zhang Min knew that this was the time for him to perform.

He didn't refuse at the moment, nodded and took the task with his fists.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, this matter will be done."

Zhang Min said, drew the sword at his waist, and rushed to the battlefield.

Zhang Min's figure is not tall, he is not riding a horse, he is just mixed in the crowd of ten thousand troops, not conspicuous, pretending to fight with the enemy soldiers, that is, gradually approaching Yuan Shao's side.

If you don't observe carefully, it will be difficult for a person like Zhang Min who is not outstanding in appearance and figure to attract the attention of others if he is thrown on this battlefield.

It was precisely because of this that Zhang Min approached Yuan Shao's side in a short time, and Yuan Shao was still fighting with several soldiers under Wen Ping's command, completely unaware that a figure of the enemy army had come behind him, and a pair of eyes were already fixed on him.

Just after Yuan Shao excitedly fought with several enemy soldiers again and killed several soldiers under Wen Ping.

The enemy who came behind him, who had no sense of existence, acted again, jumped forward, raised his long sword and stabbed Yuan Shao's back.

The black shadow flashed, extremely fast, and before Yuan Shao could react, the long sword had already stabbed Yuan Shao's chest.

Running through his chest.
