Chapter 160: Gongsun Zhan's Ambition

Liaodong County, Xiangping!

Li Yang personally untied Zhang Xiu, and said angrily: "Ah Bao is unreasonable, offending the general, Yang, on behalf of Ah Leopard to make amends to the general, please don't be like Ah Leopard!" ”

Zhang Xiu rubbed his sore wrist and sighed: "The person who wears the sin, how can he say that he will make amends?" ”

"Yang slightly prepared a thin wine, suppressed the shock for the general, and asked the general not to refuse!" Li Yang stretched out his hand to invite and said, "General, please!" ”

"Prince, please!" Zhang Xiu didn't say anything polite to Li Yang!

Taishou Mansion, in the living room, everyone sat down!

At this time, Zhao Yun walked in from outside, saluted Li Yang, and said, "Lord! ”

"A distinguished guest is here today!" Li Yang stretched out his finger and pointed at Zhang Xiu, and said with a smile: "General Zhang has a lot of relationship with Zilong, and Zilong should drink the three major urns with him!" ”

Zhao Yun looked at Zhang Xiu with a puzzled expression, trying to remember it for a long time, but he couldn't think of who the person in front of him was!

Zhang Xiu looked at the heroic Zhao Yun with a smile on his face, and said softly: "Your Excellency is the closed disciple of the Tong Master?" Zhao Yun, Zhao Zilong? ”

"Your Excellency?" Zhao Yun opened his mouth in confusion!

Zhang Xiu got up and saluted Zhao Yun, and said, "A certain is Zhang Xiu, a disciple of the child master!" ”

Zhao Yun was taken aback, and immediately walked quickly to Zhang Xiu, bowed deeply, and said, "I have heard the name of my senior brother earlier, and I can't wait to see it." Now that we are finally able to meet, I am very happy, and I will definitely drink with my brother today! ”

Zhang Xiu raised his hand to hold Zhao Yun's hand tightly, and said, "Today, I will definitely not get drunk with my junior brother and not return!" ”

Zhao Yun was overjoyed, and Zhang Xiu said happily, "If you don't get drunk, you won't return!" ”

During the banquet, everyone raised their glasses frequently.

Zhang Xiu put all her troubles behind for the time being, and the whole person was immersed in the joy of recognizing her junior brother!

When things are at the worst they will mend!

Zhang Xiu's heart was like a mirror, he knew that Li Yang didn't mean to harm himself, so he didn't have so many scruples, he believed that with his own ability, he would definitely be able to find a place in the Liaodong Army!

"If you come, you will be safe!" Zhang Xiu thought so!

The general of the defeated army, living is already the greatest gift to him, and it makes no sense to think more, just wait for the fall!

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have five flavors!

Li Yang ordered someone to send the slightly drunk Zhang Xiu to the guest room to rest.

Looking at Zhang Xiu's back, Li Yang said lightly and said, "Zhang Xiu is known as the Gun King of the Northland, and he does have some skills!" ”

He nodded appreciatively and said, "This person still has edges and corners, and he still needs to be tempered for some time before he can use the right talent!" ”

Zhao Yun stood quietly behind the two, listening to their conversation, and never said a word!

Li Yang looked sideways at Fu Zhu, asked him for advice, and said, "Han Sheng is old, and he may be able to take care of it on his behalf!" ”

"Good!" Frustrated, he smiled!

"Let Zhang Xiu spend a few days in Xiangping City, catch up with Zilong, and then it's not too late to take office!" Li Yang said!

"No!"

Frustrated, bow down and promise!

——————————

After Dong Zhuo's crusade, the Kwantung Alliance Army was disbanded, and the Yuan League Lord also returned to Bohai County unwillingly.

At this time, Yuan Shao, in addition to wearing the two high hats of the Fourth Third Duke and the Kwantung Army Alliance Leader on his head, actually only had a small piece of land in Bohai County, which was given to him by Dong Zhuo!

In that era of the jungle, if you can't expand your power quickly, you will soon be eaten by others, no matter what kind of celebrity you are or the leader of the alliance.

At that time, Bohai County belonged to Jizhou, so Yuan Shao naturally set his sights on the territory of Jizhou Mu Hanfu!

At that time, there was a contradiction between Han Fu and Gongsun Zhan of Youzhou, so Yuan Shao adopted Xiao Ji's strategy, while leading the army to the east, posing for an attack on Jizhou, and secretly writing a letter to Gongsun Zhan, making an appointment to jointly attack Jizhou.

As a result, Han Fu was really not Gongsun Zhan's opponent, and he was defeated in the first battle, and even his general Lu Yi took the opportunity to rebel.

Yuan Shao sent an envoy to make friends with Lu Yi on the one hand, and on the other hand, he asked his nephew Gao Gan and the strategist Xun Chen and others to go to Yecheng to lobby Han Fu.

Yuan Shao's hand is both inside and outside, and he is really beautiful to play with both soft and hard, Han Fu is cowardly by nature, and has no strategy, and under the coercion and temptation, he really agreed to give up Jizhou and invited Yuan Shao to be the pastor of Jizhou.

In this way, without spending a single soldier, Yuan Shao got Jizhou, the richest of the thirteen states in the world, while Han Fu, the unjust leader, was deprived of military power and died of fear!

Jizhou, which has a large land and abundant resources, has given Yuan Shao an inexhaustible supply of soldiers and talents!

At this time, Yuan Shaowen had Xun Chen, Trial, Guo Tu, Xu You, and Xiao Ji. Wu Youyi, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang He, Gao Ran. Initially built its own core team.

But at this time, the situation faced by Yuan Shao was not optimistic.

Although Jizhou is rich, it is the land of four wars, surrounded by strong enemies, and Qingzhou in the east is the gathering place of the rest of the Yellow Turbans.

To the south is Yanzhou, Cao Cao's stronghold.

The annexed states to the west were once under the control of Zhang Yan's Montenegrin army.

The north is even more dangerous, because the powerful warlord Gongsun Chan is entrenched in Youzhou, eyeing the tiger!

At this time, Gongsun Chan had occupied most of Youzhou, and all the counties except Liaodong belonged to Gongsun Chan!

Gongsun Zhan remembered his friendship with Li Man, and did not take the lead in attacking Liaodong, but chose to fight Yuan Shao to the death!

In the third year of the first peace, that is, in 192 A.D., at the beginning of the year!

Gongsun Zhan, who had long been unable to hold back, first attacked Jizhou, and for a while, all counties and counties surrendered one after another.

Yuan Shaoqin led his troops and horses to meet the attack, and the Battle of Jieqiao broke out.

Gongsun Chan with 30,000 infantry, lined up in a phalanx, each flank equipped with 5,000 light cavalry, and in the middle was the most powerful cavalry unit, Baima Yicong. schoolbag

Baima Yicong is the most elite cavalry escort of Gongsun Zhan, the number is about 3,000 people, the war horses are all white, and the soldiers are all masters of a thousand, they have strong mobility and combat effectiveness, and are very loyal to Gongsun Zhan, and they are the biggest reliance of Gongsun Chan outside Yang Weisai.

Even the brave and warlike Hun cavalry saw Bai Ma Yicong and left with a lot of trouble, but this time they met a nemesis, that is, the eight hundred first dead soldiers of Koji Yi.

In fact, Yuan Shao has no choice but to arrange it like this, if you want to talk about infantry strength, Yuan Shao is not weaker than Gongsun Zhan, but the number of Yuan Shao's cavalry is not much, if you take it out and fight hard, I am afraid it is not enough to stuff Gongsun Zhan's teeth!

There is a natural disadvantage to be able to resist cavalry with infantry, not to mention that there are only 800 people, Gongsun Chan will inevitably despise it, and this is what Koji Yi wants.

In fact, these 800 people are just bait, and there are a thousand strong crossbows hidden behind them, and the firing power of the strong crossbow is very powerful, far from being comparable to ordinary bows and arrows, which is the real killer weapon of Koji Yi.

Sure enough, Gongsun Chan saw that there were few soldiers on the opposite side, so he ordered the cavalry to charge and trample on the enemy formation.

And Koji led eight hundred elite infantry, quietly lurking under the shield.

At that time, Yan Gang, the general under the command of Gongsun Zhan, was leading Bai Ma Yi to rush to a place dozens of steps away from Koji Yi, and suddenly found the thousand terrifying strong crossbows, and the sharp cold light on the dense arrows instantly illuminated Yan Gang's brain was blank.

What the strong crossbow means to the cavalry, Yan Gang knows better than anyone else, but it is too late to regret it, and before Yan Gang can react, Ko Yi jumped up with eight hundred first-class dead soldiers and rushed away to meet the cavalry.

Meanwhile!

The crossbows were fired in unison, and the sharp arrows were like meteors, and they went straight to Gongsun Zhan's cavalry, and in the middle of it, like lightning and lightning strikes, the bloody air was mixed with the wails of the cavalry before death and the long neighing of the war horses, and Bai Mayi was shot down in a pool of blood from most of them.

The fiasco of the White Horse Yicong had an irreparable impact on Gongsun Zhan's side, and the whole army fell into chaos, with the soldiers rushing to flee for their lives, while Koji Yi became more and more courageous and captured the boundary bridge all the way.

Gongsun Zhan led his troops to retreat to Jixian County.

Yuan Shao saw the great victory of Koji Yi, he was a little light on the enemy, he ordered the main force to hurry up to pursue the enemy, and he led more than a hundred guards to hold dozens of strong crossbows, followed behind and marched slowly, to more than ten miles away from the boundary bridge, heard that Gongsun Chan had been defeated, so Yuan Shao dismounted and unsaddled, and rested for a while.

At this time, more than 2,000 cavalry fleeing under Gongsun Chan suddenly appeared and surrounded the 100 people led by Yuan Shao!

At that time, more than 2,000 cavalrymen didn't know that the one who was surrounded inside was Yuan Shao, so they didn't charge with their lives, otherwise, the life of the Yuan League Lord would definitely have to be explained here!

After the 2,000 cavalry surrounded Yuan Shao, they only released random arrows on the periphery and did not charge him.

For a while, arrows rained down. The situation was very critical, and the strategist Tian Feng helped Yuan Shao and asked him to hide in a low wall to avoid arrows, but Yuan Shao was furious, threw his helmet on the ground, and said: "The eldest husband would rather die in battle, hide behind the wall, can he live?" ”

Yuan Shao's heroism dispelled the fear in everyone's hearts, and while he boosted morale, he calmly commanded the soldiers armed with bows and crossbows to meet the battle, and never let the enemy army come closer.

Soon, Koji led his troops to the rescue, and the group of cavalry quickly withdrew.

The Battle of Jieqiao is a classic example of infantry defeating cavalry in Chinese history, which taught future generations strict discipline, the ability to choose timing, and the personal quality of commanders, which are always the key to determining victory or defeat.

After this battle, Koji Yi became famous all over the world.

Gongsun Zhan's White Horse Yicong was almost wiped out, and the general Yan Gang was killed in battle, while Yuan Shao stood firm in Jizhou and firmly controlled this rich foothold.

Youzhou, Guangyang County. None!

In the study!

Gongsun Zhan was on the top, looking at the ministers and generals below with a gloomy face!

Guan Jing secretly glanced at Gongsun Zhan, and then said stubbornly: "Those who achieve great things are not informal, Liaodong is rich, money and grain are abundant, and 300,000 soldiers can be raised. ”

Gongsun Zhan squinted, sighed, and said, "Zizhong and I have the grace of knowing each other, and I can't bear to harm his son!" ”

"The lord is wrong with this!" Fan Fangchong Gongsun Zan bowed and said: "Around Liaodong, strong enemies are around, and there are countless people who covet it. Once it falls into the hands of Yuan Shao, the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

"After conquering Liaodong, the lord only needs to raise Li Man's son!" Tian Yu said: "At that time, if the lord is willing, he can call Li Yang as his son-in-law, so that he can complete Ayao's mind and get a big boost, this is the method of killing two birds with one stone, why not?" ”

When everyone heard this, they burst into laughter and said, "Wonderful, wonderful!" ”

Gongsun Yao has a soft spot for Li Yang, this matter is no secret, a girl runs to Liaodong twice in three days, doesn't she like people, or what?

Gongsun Zhan was moved, and said, "What should I do about this?" Do you have a solution? ”

Tian Yu was the first to speak, and said: "According to the report of Tanma, the Li family will lead Wang Fuqin to lead a thousand elite soldiers to guard the guests, the guests are the gateway to the east and west of Liao, if you want to capture Liaodong, you must first take the guests, and once the guests are broken, Liaodong will be under the iron hooves of our army!" Give and take, it all depends on the Lord's thoughts! ”

"Fauber?" Gongsun Zhan bowed his head slightly, and said: "This person is strong in martial arts, and he is not comparable to idle people, so he should be careful to deal with it!" ”

Tian Yu snorted lightly and arched his hand: "The last general is willing to raise a group of men and horses to surprise the guests, if you can't conquer the guests, I am willing to raise my head to see you!" ”

"Let the country lead the army, I don't have to worry about it!" Gongsun Zhan smiled and said, "With your three thousand men, you will be limited to three days to conquer the Bintu!" ”

Tian Yu bowed down and agreed, and took the order to go!

Bintu City Head!

Fauber and Red Eyebrows stand side by side!

Fu Bo rubbed his sour eyes and said, "Recently, my right eyelid has been jumping non-stop, I don't know why!" ”

The red eyebrows smiled slightly, and said: "Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao are fighting fiercely, and they have no time to take care of Liaodong, so my father doesn't need to worry!" ”

"I've been restless lately, which makes it difficult for my father to sit still!" Fauber turned his head to look to the north and sighed, "Is there a threat from the north?" ”

Red Mei shook his head silently, and said comfortingly: "The northern Zhuhu is like yesterday's yellow flowers, and there is no threat to us at all!" Father can relax! ”

"Lately, I've always been thinking about the bits and pieces when I was with my lord!" Fu Bo sighed helplessly, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Xu is old for his father, and he often falls into memories!" It's hard to extricate yourself! ”

"The first monarch is wise and powerful, impressive, unforgettable, and I often think of him!" Red eyebrows smiled!

Fauber looked up at the sky, the corners of his eyes gradually moistened, he let out a long sigh of relief, and sighed, "Yes! The lord is brave and invincible, and he is powerful. Fu, I have the honor to serve his old man for decades, and it has been a blessing for several generations! When I think of the scene where I galloped between the two formations with the lord, I still feel a burst of enthusiasm! ”

This time, Red Eyebrows just nodded silently and didn't say anything!

Li Man is too far away for Red Mei, he has never had the experience and qualifications to gallop on the battlefield with Li Man!

With his bare eyebrows on the battlements, looking at the merchants coming and going at the city gate, there was an extremely unreal feeling!

The whole world has become a pot of porridge, but Liaodong looks like a paradise, a peaceful atmosphere, this situation and this scene actually made the red eyebrows feel a little flustered!

Red Eyebrow and Fauber glanced at each other, and both of them saw a hint of horror in each other's eyes.

After a long time!

The two said in unison: "It's not good, close the city gate quickly!" ”
