That night, Gongsun Chan led the army to set off, as he himself said, traveling lightly and at night.

The road of five hundred miles, according to the route he had drawn up, was more than two hundred miles. Coupled with the fact that it was a night march, the speed was fully doubled. Originally, from Jixian to Feiru, the normal speed of the cavalry was enough for seven days, but now they have walked for nearly twenty days.

It's been a tough journey, but so far so good. Gongsun Chan has arrived in Feiru, and is now hiding on a hill outside Feiru City.

After a night's rest, he sent scouts to scout the city of Fat. But when the scout returned, it brought him bad news.

"General, when my subordinates were just approaching the city, they found that more than 50,000 rebels had gathered outside the city, and now these rebels are rushing here."

"What, coming here, are you sure you're right?" Gongsun Chan asked in surprise, "We walked all the way day and night, and no one found any trace of us, and we were exposed as soon as we arrived here?" ”

The scout replied, "Your subordinates are not mistaken, they are indeed coming this way. ”

Gongsun Zhan's brows furrowed, a little shocked. Maybe they're going somewhere else, just passing by.

"General, no, General!" A sentry suddenly ran over and shouted in fear, "The mountain is full of cavalry, and rebel infantry, we are surrounded!" ”

Gongsun Chan looked at this righteous servant who ran over in disbelief, with an expression of disbelief on his face, he was surrounded! He didn't want to ask in detail, so he decided to see for himself, seeing is believing.

The result is naturally the same as what Yi Cong said, and when you look down from the bare mountain, you can see it very carefully. The mountain was full of rebels and Wuhuan troops, and they had surrounded the whole mountain.

At this moment, a pair of men and horses came out of the rebels, and they slowly walked up the hill and stopped halfway up the mountain.

The man at the head shouted to the mountain: "Dare to ask the Han general on the mountain is Gongsun Bogui!" ”

He shouted three times, and there was just no one on the hill to answer him. He sneered, and then shouted: "Gongsun Zhan, even if you don't speak, I know it's you, if there is anyone else in Youzhou who has three thousand elite cavalry, then it is only you!" ”

"Zhang Chun, you traitor!" Gongsun Chan shouted angrily on the mountain, "Since you know it's me, I advise you to surrender as soon as possible, otherwise you will be in a different place when the time comes, don't blame me for not reminding you!" ”

"Hahaha~ Gongsun Zhan, don't you see the situation clearly, now that you are surrounded by me, you still dare to speak wildly!" Zhang Chun laughed unscrupulously, "I advise you to surrender as well, so that you can still keep the whole corpse, otherwise I will break your body into thousands of pieces, crush your bones and scatter ashes!" ”

"My grandson Zan is loyal to Lu Zhongjun, not like you, a traitor lackey and shameless villain who betrayed the Son of Heaven, forgot his ancestors, was in the company of Yidi, and brutalized the people."

Zhang Chun was so angry that he gritted his teeth, he couldn't wait to send troops up the mountain immediately and cut Gongsun Chan with a thousand knives.

But he remembered something again, and laughed again: "Hahaha~ Gongsun Zhan, others say that you are brave in battle and have great achievements, but in my opinion, you are just a reckless man with a vain name." Don't you want to know how you were found out when you sneaked over? ”

After a while, Gongsun Chan still didn't talk, which made Zhang Chun's chest very uncomfortable, how could he humiliate him if he didn't speak?

But that's all there is to say, even if you talk to yourself, you have to say it.

"Your strategy of going out day and night and attacking fat like a surprise can be said to be on paper. The cavalry under the command of my Wuhuan allies spread throughout the two counties of Yuyang and Beiping. No trace of the slightest clue can escape the eyes of the Wuhuan ranger.

You think that your righteous cavalry has cleaned up the traces, which is a big mistake. These Wuhuan traitors who have lived in the Han Dynasty for many years are no match for the Wuhuan warriors who have been living in the grassland. ”

At this time, Gongsun Chan finally shouted: "I see, this is indeed my carelessness, if it weren't for you, a traitor, to tell me, I would still be in the dark, thinking that there was another traitor." ”

Zhang Chun's face turned blue with anger, who is humiliating whom.

"Gongsun Zhan, you will only use your tongue Liu Hong, the dog emperor, and Zhang Wen, the old horseman, are really blind, I took the initiative to recommend themselves, they don't look down on them, but they actually chose you to be such a fool on paper.

You are so greedy for merit and are easily surrounded by me, which is evidence that you are not as good as me, let the dog emperor and the old man regret it. ”

Gongsun Zan on the mountain laughed loudly: "Hahaha~ Your Majesty and the general of the chariot are really like torches, and they are like watching the fire, but fortunately they didn't worship you as a general." Otherwise, if you go to Liangzhou, you Zhang Chun kneels to the Qiang people again, won't it affect the soldiers of the three armies and the people of Guanzhong! ”

"Gongsun Zhan, you puppeteer, erector!" Zhang Chun has been scared to the point of losing his mind.

Shaft? Concubine! Gongsun Chan was suddenly furious, and this pure dog thief dared to poke his sore spots.

Gongsun Zhan was originally a member of the Gongsun clan in Liaoxi, but he was the concubine of the clan and was not treated well since he was a child. When he joined the office, he didn't get the support of the family, but he just became a small official.

His wish in this life is to get ahead and return to his hometown. It's just that now he is almost forty years old, but he is still a Peking Taishou, and he doesn't even have a title.

Zhang Hao, who is more than ten years younger than him, is now a member of the party, holding heavy troops, and he is still a top nobleman with 3,000 households. This made him envious and jealous, and even more resentful of Zhang Hao and his origin.

Now Zhang Chun scolded himself for the word "Shu", which was equivalent to cutting the wound in his heart, and then sprinkled several handfuls of salt.

Gongsun Chan looked at the figure below with red eyes, and immediately gathered the cavalry. Although he was very angry at the moment, his mind was still clear.

In terms of the current situation, it is necessary to break through, otherwise staying here all the time is no different from waiting for death. It's just that the key is where to break through.

This point is also clear in his heart, which is the direction where Zhang Chun is now. Although the rebels were mainly infantry, they were mostly homeless. Just like the yellow scarf, there are many people, but they are broken when they are touched.

"Brothers, today is another bloody battle, are you afraid?" Gongsun Chan shouted at the Yicong cavalry who had already assembled.

"Don't be afraid!" Everyone replied in unison.

Zhang Chun heard the movement on the mountain, and secretly said that it was not good, so he hurriedly ran back with someone. He also sent someone to inform Chief Wuhuan that Gongsun Chan wanted to break through.

Gongsun Chan didn't care about Zhang Chun's movements, but continued to shout: "It's different now, the number of enemies is more than twenty times that of us, and we only have three thousand. Are you afraid? ”

"I'm afraid!"

"Okay, I'm scared too, but it's useless to be afraid of death now. This is a place of death, if you are afraid of death, you will be sent to death, and only if you are not afraid of death can you get out alive. Today I will take you to try it and see if we can survive with such a huge disparity in numbers! ”

After speaking, Gongsun Chan directly led people to rush to the rebels' positions.

Although the rebels and the Wuhuan cavalry had so many people and surrounded the entire mountain, this also made it impossible for the Wuhuan cavalry to directly attack the Yicong cavalry.

The so-called top-down, like a bamboo, should be the current situation. The cavalry charged down from the hill as fast as lightning, and in an instant, they rushed to the front of the rebels.

All the rebels had no time to react and put up a simple resistance, and the cavalry had already burst into the formation and opened fire.

These rebels are just outcasts, and they followed Zhang Chun in order to eat. Like in the previous attack on those cities and villages with empty garrisons, they can still have some effect.

But now it is to fight with the elite cavalry, although their formation is very good-looking, decent, but after all, it is a show, after Gongsun Zhan led the troops to break in, they have been in disarray, becoming more and more chaotic.

Breaking up the formation so easily, Gongsun Zhan couldn't help but think in his heart: This Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju are really straw bales, and they actually want to succeed with such a person.

It's just that his number is still too small, otherwise, he will definitely be able to stir up this rebel army even more chaotic, and maybe it will cause them to flee, and one will win more with less.

At present, we must take advantage of the chaos to break out quickly, otherwise when the Wuhuan cavalry arrives, I and my righteous servants will be trapped inside, and then annihilated little by little.

Although he was surrounded unconsciously, Gongsun Zhan's luck was not so bad. Just when he had just broken out of the encirclement, the figures of Wuhuan cavalry appeared on the left and right. Such a good opportunity naturally can't be let go, and Gongsun Chan immediately led people to escape.

On the way to the surprise attack, Gongsun Chan passed by an abandoned walled city called Guzhu City. Since there was no material in it, the rebels did not occupy it, and it was still deserted.

And now this walled city, which they look down on, has become the last fortress of Gongsun Zhan. After breaking through, he directly brought people back here.

The Wuhuan cavalry was the first to arrive, but instead of attacking the city, they surrounded it outside, and the siege was impassable. Until Zhang Chun arrived with the rebels, the siege was handed over to them.

Of course, the rebels were outnumbered, but the siege did not go smoothly due to poor preparation. Because Zhang Chun's idea was to surround Gongsun Chan to death on the mountain, he didn't think that he would fail at all, let Gongsun Chan escape, and finally attack the city.

I didn't expect that there was no way, and if I wasn't prepared, I had to prepare on the spot. This gave Gongsun Chan a chance to breathe.

However, Zhang Chun could not attack the city, but he did not give up the opportunity to continue to attack Gongsun Zan and his subordinates.

"Gongsun Zhan, don't think it's safe to hide in the city, look at what these are. That's right, I fled too much before, and you didn't bring anything with you, and I brought all of this to you. I'll just leave my things out of the city and get them if I want!" ”

Listening to Zhang Chun's proud voice, Gongsun Chan couldn't refute it, in order to escape, he did let his subordinates throw everything away.

At this moment, everyone is now exhausted after the battle to break through and defend the city. Many people in the crowd were already rumbling with hunger.

Just now defending the city was also killed in the battle, and Gongsun Chan ordered their horses to be slaughtered first and used as military rations.

Fortunately, the city has been abandoned for a long time, and many trees and weeds have grown. In this way, they will not lose their lives at night because of the bitter cold. As for water, it can only be obtained after the snow melts.

After temporarily solving these most basic troubles, Gongsun Chan sat down again and began to worry about the future.

Nearly 3,000 people have consumed a lot of materials, and these things in front of them will soon be used up. When the time comes, Zhang Chun outside will be able to defeat himself without much effort.

Looking back now, I was indeed greedy for merit. He recalled the words of Zhonglang General Meng Yi, and it was really to the point. Meng Yi was right, since the enemy was not moving, he should wait and see what happened and wait for the fighter.

I have to admit that at that time, I listened to Meng Yi's constant praise of Zhang Hao's words, and I was in a hurry to come up with such a risky action.

In fact, at that time, he had just arrived in Jixian County, and he didn't have a full understanding of the rebels and Wuhuan.

But it's really late to think about it now, and now it's really dead to me. Trapped in the city, with no supplies inside and no reinforcements outside, sooner or later he will die here.

Under such circumstances, the morale of the righteous servants became more and more low. Now they remain true to themselves and will maintain the basic rules.

But over time, they become irritable and irritable, placing all the blame on themselves. Even those who are most loyal to themselves will eventually betray themselves.

The atmosphere of despair began to permeate the entire Lonely Bamboo City, including Gongsun Zhan, who was also affected by it at the moment, and could not calm down.

Outside the city, Zhang Chunzheng looked at Guzhu City triumphantly, in his eyes, this walled city would be breached sooner or later, and Gongsun Chan would die in his hands sooner or later.

He has been waiting for this moment for more than half a year, and his wish is finally about to come true.

He just wanted to kill Gongsun Chan with his own hands to prove to the world that he was indeed stronger than him, Liu Hong and Zhang Wen both looked away, and choosing Gongsun Chan would be their biggest mistake.

But the unexpected always comes at the wrong time.

A Wuhuan chief walked up to Zhang Chun and said to him: "General Zhang, I'm here to inform you, I and several other chieftains are going back with troops, and I can't help you anymore, it's up to you in the future." ”

The transition between joy and sorrow is so fast.
