Chapter 409: The Death of Gongsun Chan (First Update)

The next day, early in the morning.

The red sun rises above the horizon, and the bright light dispels the morning fog, and the morning sun is like a rainbow, and the light is shining.

Gongsun Zan rode out of the city early in the morning, and came directly to the Qingzhou military camp, when he entered this simple camp, his eyes swept over the position around the gate, the traces left by the battle last night are still there, the shape around the gate is like ruins, and the fortifications have all collapsed.

"Last night's night attack, they only attacked the gate, but didn't attack it?" Gongsun Chan said with some doubts.

He had heard about the night attack last night, but soon the herald reported that the Jingping army had withdrawn, so he did not go out of the city to watch the battle, and early this morning, he had sent someone to understand the process of last night's night attack, and it seemed to him that this night attack was a bit anticlimactic.

What the hell did the Mulong diagram mean, he couldn't figure it out.

But the more this happened, the more he became cautious and did not dare to send troops easily.

"Hmm!"

Kong Xu nodded, his cheeks were a little tired, his eyes were concave and convex, and there were circles of black lines around him, he said in detail about last night's battle: "They don't have many soldiers and horses, only thousands of soldiers and horses attacked, and there are thousands of soldiers and generals who are pressing the formation outside. It can make the soldiers tired, I suspect they are the strategy of exhaustion! ”

"Tired soldiers?"

Gongsun Zhan's eyes flashed with a gleam: "This is a good strategy, but he underestimates our sour jujube troops!" ”

Sour jujube is not only the Qingzhou Army.

The Youzhou Army is the main force, and it must be recuperated.

But in addition to the Youzhou army, they also have the Guangling army.

"Captain Kongdu, you have worked hard in this battle!" Gongsun Zhan patted Kong Xu on the shoulder and said, "I have already passed on Zhang Taishou, he will lead the Guangling Army to take over the defense of the Qingzhou Army, and the Qingzhou Army will withdraw to the county seat first to rest!" ”

"Thank you Gongsun Taishou for your forgiveness!" Kong Xu breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, his status is almost the same as that of Gongsun Zhan, and the same status as Zhang Chao, the chief general of the Guangling Army in the city, but whether it is him or Zhang Chao, they are all headed by Gongsun Zhan, the first Gongsun Zhan's Youzhou army is the most powerful, and the second Gongsun Chan is good at using soldiers, which is far inferior to Kong Xu and Zhang Chao, who were born as civilian officials.

So on top of the arrangement, he believed in Gongsun Zhan.

An hour later, the Guangling army went out of the city to take over the defense line of the Qingzhou army, the Qingzhou army returned to the city to rest, the two armies changed defenses to complete, and the front formation became the main formation of the Guangling army, facing the edge of the Jingping army.

"Gongsun Taishou, as far as I can see, there are only more than 10,000 soldiers and horses on the other side, what are you afraid of?"

Zhang Chaonai is the younger brother of Chen Liutai Shou Zhang Miao, a scribe, a proud son of Confucianism, familiar with military books, very confident in his own ability, he has sent scouts to inquire when he was stationed in the defense line, in his opinion, the enemy army in front of the army is not much, with the strength of sour dates, it is enough to eat this enemy army.

"Zhang Taishou, the soldiers and horses on the opposite side are the Jingping army, in the cold winter and the moon, with the power of lightning, breaking through tens of thousands of Hanoi troops, their combat effectiveness is strong, must not be underestimated, although the child is young, but the mind is treacherous, and it should not be contemptible!"

Gongsun Zhan is actually really worried about whether there are soldiers and horses behind the Jingping army, which is why he will not move: "We have hoarded too much grain and grass for the coalition army, try to be stable, and after I have investigated their strength, I will make plans, before that, we must not act rashly, if there is a mistake, we have no shame to face the world!" “

"Hmph, Jing Pingjun, Mu Longtu, a Huangkou child, with his father's prestige and fame, he can stand on the world, there is no need to worry, but Wang Kuang is too careless, if he dares to fight, I will let him have no return!"

Zhang Chao snorted coldly.

But he still obeyed Gongsun Zhan's words and did not move.

However, he did not move, which does not mean that Jingpingjun does not move.

At noon, the Jingping army began to attack the camp of the Guangling army.

Knock knock knock!!!!

In the sound of war drums, the Shuofang battalion of the main force of the Jingping army attacked with all its might, this heavy armored infantry had a solid defensive force, but also had a strong offensive force, under the leadership of Zhang Liao, stormed the middle army of the Guangling army.

"The first song, sharp formation, attack Yuanmen!"

"Song 2, Left Wing!"

"The third song, the right wing!"

"Fourth song, shoot arrows with all your might, bow and arrow cover!"

“……”

Zhang Liao rode the horse in the army, his eyes looked down at the front, his momentum was restrained and calm, and one military order after another was issued in an orderly manner.

Mu Jing also rode a foal to the side, he had come to watch the battle.

handed over the war to Zhang Liao, and he was very relieved of Zhang Liao.

He knows in his heart that he has a sense of excellence, has the courage to transcend the times, and has history to endorse him and know where capable people are, which are his strengths, but it does not include marching and fighting, he is just good at using people.

"Bastards, bold, thousands of soldiers and horses, dare to storm my camp gate, you are looking for death!" In the Guangling military camp, Zhang Chao climbed on top of the wooden tower of Yuanmen, looked at the attack that was close at hand, and was furious in his heart, he didn't say a word, and directly ordered: "The left and right battalions are in formation, and the middle battalion is facing and repelling them!" ”

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The Guangling army is not a strong army, but the defense is okay, and the morale is very high.

The war lasted for an hour, both sides had casualties, in general, the casualties of the Guangling army were more serious, the casualty ratio was two to one, and both of them may not be able to change a Shuofang battalion soldier, after all, the Shuofang battalion was the elite of the state, and the elite soldiers on the Northern Desert front for many years, and the Guangling army, most of them were just young and strong, and they seemed to have a good momentum, and there were too many problems after the handover of the short army.

"Lord Captain, we have broken through the gate, the enemy army has retreated to their camp, and we are going to kill it!" A military marquis stepped forward and asked Zhang Liao.

"Go on the offensive and take fifty steps!"

Zhang Liao looked at the battlefield intently, many things could be seen on the battlefield, including the mentality of the local commander, in this battle, he felt that the opponent's commander was obviously a little proud, so he still wanted to give it a try.

"No!"

The marquis received the order and continued the attack.

"Xie Yu, keep an eye on the county for me, report immediately!" Zhang Liaodao.

"No!"

In this battle, the Shuofang battalion was the main force, the fourth battalion responded, and the third battalion was the pressure formation, mainly dealing with the reinforcements from the county town.

Among the county seats.

Above the city walls.

Gongsun Zhan stood in front of him, looking at the battle outside the city, Tian Kai and Guan Jing stood left and right behind him.

"Lord, the Jingping Army is menacing!"

Guan Jing said: "Less than 4,000 soldiers and horses attacked, they have already broken through the Yuanmen, with one enemy and two, the Guangling Army's eight or nine thousand soldiers and horses were pressed in the camp and breathless, and now they have retreated to the middle camp!" ”

"Lord, do you need me to send troops to support?" Tian Kai asked.

"Wait!"

Gongsun Zhan shook his head: "Zhang Chao has nearly more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and he will not be defeated so easily, but his character is too arrogant, and grinding his arrogance with the help of Jing Pingjun's hand is conducive to our future cooperation!" ”

He thought for a while and said: "But I have to prevent Zhang Chao from attacking, I still can't figure out the confidence of Mu Longtu to dare to attack my sour jujube with more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, I have to be careful, Ziyu, you send someone to tell Zhang Zhao, don't attack!" ”

"No!"

Guan Jing nodded, and he sent several envoys to the Guangling military camp outside the city.

……

"Can't attack?"

In the Guangling army, Zhang Chao was full of anger, and he was aggrieved in this battle, but he was also told not to attack: "Hmph, his grandson Bogui is a county guard, and I, Zhang Chao, am also a county guard, what qualifications does he have to order us!" ”

In normal times, when he was calm, he would listen to Gongsun Zhan, because he knew that Gongsun Chan had the ability.

But now, Gongsun Zhan's order came at a bad time.

He was in a state of anger, his own strength was obviously more than two cups of the opponent's, but he was overwhelmed by thousands of people, which made him question his own ability, the more so, the more manic he became.

"The Guangling army obeys the order, give me a counterattack!"

Zhang Chao ordered fiercely: "Kill them, drive them ten miles away, and kill them without leaving a piece of armor!" ”

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The main force of Guangling came out and met the attack of Shuofang's battalion head-on.

……

Zhang Liao was in the middle of the Chinese army, looking ahead, his eyes were like rainbows, shining, and his thoughts turned quickly: "Counterattacked, it is really the main general who can't hold his breath, maybe this is an opportunity!" ”

His heart is very big, not to defeat, but to eat this Guangling army in one bite.

"Take a gamble!"

Zhang Liao gritted his teeth and began to arrange: "There are less than two hours left before dark, and there is still a chance!" ”

"Order, the third battalion will advance two miles to the county seat!"

"No!"

"Order the fourth battalion to lie down on the left flank!"

"No!"

The Jingping battalions quickly moved.

Then Zhang Liao personally stepped forward to command the battle of the Shuofang battalion: "After the first song engaged, it was feigned!" ”

"The second song is on!"

"Alternate battles, slowly rear, withdraw from the gate position, and retreat to our camp!"

Zhang Liao's conducting style is control, he controls the movement of each song, and firmly controls the entire battlefield in his own hands.

"Hahaha, it's really vulnerable!"

Zhang Chao watched the Jingping army retreat under the counterattack of the Guangling army, and immediately laughed: "Counterattack, order all the soldiers and horses to attack, defeat them, and let them have no return!" ”

"Lord Taishou, Gongsun Taishou ordered us not to attack!"

A master bookkeeper was a little cautious and said in a low voice.

"Liao Zhong, in the Guangling army, I am the main general, or is his grandson Bogui the main general!" Zhang Chao's unkind eyes stared at the master book beside him, and asked coldly.

"Naturally, it's Taishou-sama!"

Liao Zhong said tremblingly.

"Hmph, how can his grandson Bogui dominate the battlefield in the city, the battlefield is unpredictable, and now there is a great opportunity, how can he directly defeat this Jingping army!"

Zhang Chao looked at the soldiers and horses directly opposite him with burning eyes.

The defeated Jingping Army, this will bring him great honor, you must know that the Jingping Army has become famous all over the world, and the defeat of the Jingping Army is equivalent to telling the world that he Zhang Chao is not an ordinary scholar, he is both civil and military.

"I will chase them, and I will not let any of them go!"

Zhang Chao was full of spirits, personally led the soldiers and horses, and chased the Shuofang camp out of the camp gate.

"What, the Guangling Army pursued the Jingping Army and killed it? Didn't I tell him not to attack? ”

Above the city, Gongsun Zhan trembled: "Confused things, can't you see that this is the enemy's lure strategy, there must be an ambush in this battle!" ”

"Tian Kai!"

He doesn't care about swearing anymore, and the current task is to remedy it immediately.

"In!"

"You immediately lead the army out of the city to meet you!"

"No!"

Tian Kai immediately led the army out of the city.

But he was intercepted by the 3rd battalion of Jingping.

Xie Yu knew his mission, and his third battalion was to cut off the back road, so he unswervingly formed a line of defense, and he had to ensure at least two hours.

"Withdraw, withdraw!"

Shuo Fang's battalion continued to retreat, fighting and retreating, Zhang Liao's palms were already a little sweaty, he calmly commanded the soldiers and horses to fight, but a pair of eyes stared at the battlefield moving.

"Two miles, two miles here!"

Mu Jing also became nervous, he knew all of Zhang Liao's deployments, and even admired Zhang Liao's judgment and layout, and now he watched the enemy army move towards his battlefield step by step, but the more this moment, the more nervous he became, it was better to say that he had no chance, now that he had a good opportunity, he was almost kicking the door, if he couldn't enter the door in the end, he would be angry and hammer his chest.

"Lord Captain, the enemy entered the ambush position of the fourth battalion, but the captain of the fourth battalion said that it is best to go another five hundred meters to completely cut off their rear road and surround them!"

"The time on the battlefield can't wait, give the order, the fourth battalion will attack immediately, and those who violate the order will be killed!"

Zhang Liao shook his head, since ancient times, greed did not end well, if there is a chance, he must seize the opportunity immediately, otherwise the opportunity will be fleeting, he immediately ordered: "In addition, all the parts of the Shuofang battalion obey the order, give me all the strength to fight back, and fight back!" ”

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Jingping's fourth battalion slaughtered like a tide.

And Shuo Fang's retreat like a sheep also straightened up at this time, one by one like a wolf and a tiger, full of energy, and began to fight back.

In the evening sunset, the trumpet charge began.

"Ahh

"Help!"

The Guangling army was on the offensive, there was no defense, the army formation was defeated by a blow, the phalanx before and after the march was cut off, and the various departments were scattered and fell into the siege of the Jingping army.

"How so?"

It was like a touch of cold water poured down, which made the ambitious Zhang Chao suddenly feel cold, and his eyes couldn't help but start looking around the battlefield.

"Lord Taishou, the left flank has been defeated!"

"Lord Taishou, the right flank of our Chinese army has been disrupted!"

One by one, the marquis cried out in grief.

"Gather your forces, move closer to me, and retreat!" Zhang Chao still has some ability after all, he gritted his teeth, waved the long sword in his hand, and drank loudly.
