Chapter 0088: Han Meng's army is defeated

Nothing was said all night.

After dawn, Han Zhan led the army to set off again.

On the way, Han Zhan couldn't help but ask Zhao Yun: "Zilong, the next city we are going to is Tantai, I don't know if it has been occupied by Yuan's subordinates." ”

"Don't worry." Seeing Han Zhan's worried look, Zhao Yun hurriedly comforted him and said, "Except for Yan Liangwen and Chou, the rest of the generals under the Yuan clan are not enough to worry about. ”

"County Lieutenant Zhao is right." As soon as Zhao Yun's words were finished, Xun You interjected and said: "Now that Gongsun Zhan's soldiers and horses have approached the boundary bridge, the Yuan family is bound to personally lead the army to meet the enemy, Yan Liangwen and Chou will naturally go with him, and the people sent to deal with our army are some ordinary generals, and Zhao County Lieutenant, Dianjun Marquis, and Xiahou Gongzi are more than enough to deal with them." ”

Xun You's words made Han Zhan's heart feel much more steady. He turned his head to look at Guo Jia, who was following behind, and asked with a smile, "Fengxiao, what are you thinking, why do you look sullen?" ”

Guo Jia urged the horse over and asked Han Zhan in a low voice: "Back to the envoy's words, Jia has been thinking about one thing, as if we are all negligent. ”

"What's the matter?" Han Zhan asked puzzled.

"Dare to ask the envoy," Guo Jia arched his hand towards Han Zhan and asked, "I don't know if you have ever sent someone to warn Geng Changshi and them?" ”

Guo Jia's words immediately made Han Zhan break out in a cold sweat. He hurriedly turned his head and asked Xun You: "Cousin Gongda, among the messengers you sent yesterday, did any of them send a letter to Geng Changshi?" ”

Xun You shook his head and said, "If you return to the envoy's words, no." I thought you had already sent someone to inform Geng Changshi, so I didn't do anything more. ”

"Oops, Geng Changshi is in danger!" When Han Zhan heard Xun You say this, he was so anxious that he smashed his palm with his fist: "Cousin Gongda, please write a letter to Geng Changshi immediately, and order someone to rush to Jizhou to see Geng Changshi, and let him go outside with Lord Min to hide for a while, and wait patiently for our army to arrive." ”

Xun You agreed, immediately turned the horse's head, called his entourage on the side of the road, took out pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and began to nervously write a warning letter to Geng Wu Min Chun.

Seeing the messenger on horseback disappear from his field of vision, Han Zhan also said with trepidation: "I hope that this letter we sent can reach Geng Changshi's hands in time." ”

…………

After noon, Han Zhan's army finally came to the vicinity of Tantai City, and saw from a distance that there was already a large army outside the city in formation. Han Zhan hurriedly raised his hand and signaled the army to stop, he looked left and right, and said to everyone: "The Yuan army has long been prepared, it seems that there will be a bitter battle today." ”

"Don't worry about it." Dian Wei, who had not made any achievements yesterday, hurriedly said: "Wait for me to kill the chief general of the Yuan army, and just kill these soldiers." ”

"Don't be reckless." After Zhao Yun stopped him in time, he began to arrange his troops. The cavalry was in the center, and the infantry were on the left and right flanks. After the formation was completed, the army slowly pushed towards the Yuan army, which was waiting for the battle.

Seeing that Han Zhan's army had set up a decisive battle formation and pushed towards him, the general of the Yuan army also waved the broadsword in his hand and signaled the phalanx to move forward.

Both sides stopped a stone's throw away. Han Zhan looked around and asked loudly, "Who wants to take the lead?" ”

Without waiting for Zhao Yun to speak, Dian Wei rushed out brandishing his halberd. He came to the front of the formation and shouted at the other party: "Chen Liudianwei is here, who dares to fight me to the death?" ”

A military marquis with a spear rushed out of Yuan's army, came to the front of the formation, pointed at Dian Wei with his finger, and said in a mocking tone: "Who should I be, it turned out to be a flag-bearer under Chen Liuzhang Taishou, and he actually dared to call the battle in front of the army." I don't die under my gun, you better go back quickly, find your master to come out and die. ”

Yuan Junjun's words caused a burst of laughter from behind. Zhao Yun, Xia Houlan and the others also showed anger on their faces when they heard the other party's insulting words to Dian Wei. But Han Zhan was snickering in his heart, laughing at Yuan Jun's military marquis who dared to provoke Dian Wei, he really didn't know how the dead word was written.

Dian Wei was really angered by the other party, he roared, the iron halberd in his left hand was raised violently, and the spear in the opponent's hand was swept away, and then the iron halberd in his right hand wiped the opponent's neck, and the good head of the military marquis flew into the air, blood spurted out of his neck like a fountain, and his body shook on the horse's back, and fell to the ground with a bang.

Seeing Dian Wei's bravery, Yuan Jun's laughter suddenly stopped, they never dreamed that a military marquis with superb martial arts could not even walk in front of Dian Wei, so he was in a different place.

Dian Wei brandished his halberd, like a mighty god, and shouted at the dumbfounded Yuan Jun: "Who else will send him to death?" ”

After General Yuan Jun saw that Dian Wei had killed the military marquis, his subordinates seemed a little panicked, and hurriedly carried a big knife in his hand, urged the horse to come to Dian Wei, and said loudly: "Han Meng, under the command of the Marquis of Yixiang, come to learn your high moves." ”

Dian Wei didn't know who Han Meng was, and when he saw the other party swinging a knife at him, he immediately raised his halberd to meet him, and the two of them went back and forth, and they fought in one place.

Han Zhan knew in his heart, don't see that there are not many descriptions of Han Meng in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but his martial arts are not bad among the generals under Yuan Shao, Yan Liangwen and Zhang He Gaolan are the "Four Court Pillars", and Han Meng and the four of them are called "Four Courts and One Pillar", which shows the level of martial arts.

In a moment's work, the two of them passed more than a dozen moves, which can be said to be equal, and it is difficult to distinguish the winner for a while. Han Zhan didn't have the heart to wait for the result of the fight, pulled out his sword, and shouted, "Brothers, rush with me!" After shouting, he swung the sword in his hand forward, and rushed out.

Zhao Yun, Xia Houlan and others were afraid that he was in danger, so they also rushed out.

The 5,000-strong army shouted and rushed towards the Yuan army on the opposite side.

There were only 1,000 Yuan soldiers stationed outside the city, and all of them were infantry. They were rushed to pieces by the cavalry led by Zhao Yun, and the infantry on the left and right flanks came up again, they had no way to enter the sky and no way to enter the ground, so they could only abandon their weapons and surrender one after another.

Han Meng, who was fighting with Dian Wei inextricably, saw that his subordinates abandoned their weapons and surrendered. He secretly screamed badly, and hurriedly shook his sword, forced Dian Wei back, turned the horse's head and ran back.

Where was Dian Wei willing to let him go, and shouted: "Where to run!" Wielding his halberd, he rushed forward.

Han rushed back to the city and found that the drawbridge had been lifted and the city gate had been closed. He hurriedly shouted at the city wall, "Open the door quickly, let me in!" ”

An official in a black official uniform on the castle tower said loudly, "We have returned to Han Gongzi." After saying that, he commanded left and right, "Release the arrow!" ”

Seeing that the arrows were raining down on the city, and Dian Wei chased after him from behind, Han Meng had no choice but to go around the city and flee back to Jizhou to report to Yuan Shao.
