Chapter 0408: Brave First Battle
In the second year of Xiping, April
After half a year of fierce battles, Zhang Wen still joined forces to establish a city with Goguryeo, completely closing the entire encirclement, but unfortunately, the king of Goguryeo had already fled from here, and had rushed to the north, using the military weapons he left behind, reinvigorating his strength, Zhang Wen also immediately took Dong Zhuo and Huangfu Song as the front army, and Goguryeo once again formed a north-south confrontation.
When evacuating from the southern region, the king of Goguryeo was very resolute, he did not leave any usable materials for the Han army, and occupied so much land, not only did not bring any substantial help to the Han army, but made the supply more miserable, and the elongated battle line made Tao Qian, who was in charge of war transportation, extremely tired, and there was no lack of complaints on weekdays.
Zhang Wen did not intend to spend so much with Goguryeo, this time, he marched directly from the four roads, and there was no one left behind in the rear, Dong Zhuo pounced to the northeast, Huangfu Song was in the northwest, Lu Bu was responsible for annihilating the fleeing army in the rear encirclement, and Zhang Wen himself pounced directly on the royal city, in addition, there was Gongsun Zhan, who led five thousand soldiers of the brave battalion, as scouts of the Han army, responsible for reconnaissance.
In the mountains and forests, a group of elite soldiers are exploring everywhere, Gongsun Chan, wearing white armor, walking in the forefront, they all dismounted, the terrain here is extremely unfriendly to horses, they can only lead the horse on foot, Gongsun Chan frowned, looked at the front seriously, squinted his eyes, raised his hand, and whispered; "Be careful, there may be hostility here...."
Hearing Gongsun Chan's words, the elites of the brave battalion behind him were frightened, their whole bodies were trembling, their faces were pale, and they held the reins tightly with one hand, if something was wrong, they would flee on horseback, Gongsun Chan ignored them, when they passed through the mountains and forests, Gongsun Chan heard the voice, he suddenly lowered his body and picked up the longbow in his hand.
Ready to fight at any time, at that moment, a group of people and horses suddenly appeared from the opposite side, these people, also with Gongsun Chan and others, led the horses, talking, three or three walked towards the mountains and forests, when they raised their heads, they were startled, from the equipment of these people, they could easily see that these were the elite troops of the Han army!
They really didn't expect that in such a desolate mountain forest, they could still encounter the Han army!
Many soldiers of the Xiaoyong Battalion also did not expect that they would come to this desolate land with no one for hundreds of miles, why could they still meet the Goguryeo people? ?
The first to react was Gongsun Zhan, pulling the bow and shooting arrows, in one go, and suddenly, the Goguryeo soldiers standing at the front flew out, with feather arrows in their chests, and fell into the crowd, and suddenly, Goguryeo was in an uproar, shouting "The Han army is coming!" ", leading the horses, turning their heads and running, these guys are also soldiers temporarily recruited by the king of Goguryeo.
Most of them were not even Goguryeo, but some Buyeo captives.
A month ago, the king of Buyeo thought that the fall of Goguryeo was imminent, so he led his army to attack the royal city, but he was attacked by the king of Goguryeo who had just returned to the royal city, and the Buyeo army collapsed.
And these people were made up of captives, and they were beaten by Zhang Wen in the battle against the Han Dynasty, and they were not even Goguryeo's opponents, let alone the more elite Han army? Seeing that they were so useless, the king of Goguryeo sent them behind enemy lines in batches to create chaos and cut off the transportation of grain and grass, and so on, and they took these mountain roads.
I didn't think that I could meet the Han army here, how is this good, the bravery of the Han army in the past has already made them lose their confidence in fighting, they instantly collapsed and fled from the battlefield, Gongsun Chan was overjoyed, at this time, as long as he can chase and kill on horseback, he can win countless military exploits, he pulled out a room, and shouted: "Xiao Yong battalion, kill with me!" ”
Hearing this roar, the Goguryeo soldiers ran faster.
Gongsun Zhan had just rushed a few steps before he was tightly held by the soldiers of the Xiaoyong Battalion.
"Captain, the thief army is strong, let's retreat first!!" Donghao Junhou said tremblingly, suddenly, several people pounced, lifted Gongsun Chan and fled towards the rear, the entire Xiaoyong battalion quickly evacuated the battlefield, the speed of escape was not much slower than those Goguryeo people, and a few points faster, Gongsun Chan roared angrily: "Let me go!" My military exploits!! My military exploits!! ”
The Xiaoyong camp and Goguryeo fled in both directions, and neither had any intention of stopping.
After escaping for several hours, the Xiaoyong battalion stopped, everyone was out of breath, Gongsun Zhan's face turned black, he stood in place, and fell into deep thought for a long time, can he really fight with such a soldier? He has been training these soldiers for several months, and under his training, these Donghao people are not inferior in performance, and the drill is also extremely serious.
However, as long as they encountered the enemy in front of them, they would flee and never give Gongsun Chan a chance to make meritorious contributions.
By now, Gongsun Chan is already a little desperate, can he really make a name for himself in leading these guys on the battlefield?
Hurt me first!!
Gongsun Chan wanted to cry without tears, but the military marquis beside him frowned, pondered, and asked, "Captain, I don't know if the thieves will catch up?" ”
"Alas... I don't know...."
Gongsun Zhan said weakly, what a good opportunity just now, as long as you charge once, you can get countless battle achievements, why do these people just dare not fight? He turned his head and said helplessly: "Those who behead the enemy can get land, slaves, and even titles, and heirs can inherit it... It's a step to the sky...."
The marquis smiled and said, "Captain, I have fish and shrimp in Donghao, I want land, what's the use of slaves?" Don't you know... We Donghao..."
"Needless to say... I know what you guys have in Donghao.... I'm very familiar with your King of Donghao..."
Gongsun Zhan waved his hand helplessly, and said: "Let's go back to Zhang Gong....", Donghao people nodded, smiled happily, to be able to stay by Zhang Wen Zhang Taiwei's side, how good, how safe, they immediately prepared to set off, at this moment, suddenly saw a frightened bird flying in the distance, the woods shook, the soldiers were taken aback, and shouted: "There is an enemy!" ”
Suddenly, they rode their horses again, and Gongsun Chan couldn't stop them, so he could only follow them.
At this time, the Goguryeo soldiers were still running wildly to escape, they had been fleeing for several hours, and the number of soldiers was also decreasing, in terms of escaping, they were not as good as the Han Xiaoyong Battalion, in the process of escaping, many soldiers were abandoned, and they could not find their whereabouts at all, and the surviving soldiers were still running wildly, and the leader looked at the rear worriedly.
"After escaping for so long, I finally escaped from the clutches!!"
He thought happily, but the soldiers around him were a little frightened, pointed ahead, and said in horror: "Leader, ahead!" ”
The leader looked up, the whole person trembled, in front of them, a group of men and horses galloped over, he recognized these people, isn't this the Han army that just met with them? Why, we have been on the run for so long, and these guys still don't give themselves a chance to live, and even went around to their front and launched such a deadly charge, what did we do!
After the Xiaoyong battalion found out the situation ahead, the situation was similar, their speed gradually became full, Gongsun Zhan rushed to the front with some doubts, and then, it was Daxi, in front of him, it was the defeated army that they had encountered before, and they were now, desperate and fearful looking at the Han army in front of them, at a loss.
Gongsun Chan drew his bow and shouted, "Surrender or kill!" ”
The defeated army could not understand Gongsun Zhan's words, and talked to each other, fortunately, among them, there were also Goguryeo soldiers who were proficient in Yayan, and immediately explained, after understanding the meaning, these defeated troops immediately turned over from their horses and dismounted, threw aside the weapons in their hands, and lowered their heads, Gongsun Chan laughed loudly and looked at the pale Donghao people around him.
He is now afraid that these Donghao people will run away if they pull him.
However, fortunately, after seeing that the other party was disarmed, these Donghao people calmed down, however, they were still ready to flee at any time, Gongsun Chan sighed, personally stepped forward, accepted their surrender, and saw that Gongsun Chan was going to go alone, these Donghao people hesitated for a long time before they followed, and tied them up one by one, and the binding was extremely strong.
Even Gongsun Chan couldn't stand it anymore.
The leader looked at these soldiers, even if they won a big victory, they couldn't see the slightest joy on their faces, but they were all vigilant, observing the surroundings, and seemed to be ready to fight at any time, worthy of the elite of the big man, the leader shook his head, and he was not ashamed to lose face under the command of such a army.
Gongsun Zhan escorted these people and walked towards Zhang Wen's camp.
Along the way, none of the soldiers of the Xiaoyong battalion spoke, and they still looked cold, solemn, and vigilant.
Gongsun Zhan has always been very anxious in his heart, looking at these Donghao people, until he arrived at the Zhang Wen military camp, he relieved his heart, handed over the prisoners, and asked the soldiers to go to pray.
Taiwei Zhang was sitting in the camp tent, wrapped in a thick felt coat, and was looking at the map, when a soldier walked in and said, "Taiwei! ”
"Huh?"
"Captain Gongsun of the Xiaoyong Battalion came to report that his troops encountered the enemy in the northeast mountains, captured more than 3,000 thieves, and are now escorted to the camp...."
"Uh-huh????"
Zhang Wen's eyes widened and asked, "What are you talking about?" The Brave Battalion captured 3,000 prisoners??? He hurriedly stood up, accompanied by the soldiers, and walked out, Gongsun Zhan was waiting outside the tent, and when he saw Zhang Wen, he immediately bowed to him, Zhang Wen helped him up, frowned, and asked, "How are your casualties?" ”
"Ahem, there were no casualties...."
Gongsun Chan said with some embarrassment.
"There were no casualties??? Three thousand prisoners were captured??? You think you're leading the North and South Army!! Zhang Wen didn't believe it, said a little angrily, then pushed Gongsun Zhan away, and looked at the captives, those people were squatting on the ground, tightly bound, tied very strongly, looking around with some fear, from their leather armor, and the weapons piled up around them, Zhang Wen understood that these were not farmers.
He had previously suspected that Gongsun Zhan had killed Liang and risked his merits, but it seemed that this was not the case.
He looked at Gongsun Chan suspiciously, and Gongsun Chan told what happened one by one, Zhang Wen laughed and said: "Okay, the brave battalion has made great contributions, with these people, we can be familiar with the various deployments of Goguryeo, you go back, after the war is over, we will reward together!" ”
"Thank you... Captain. ”
"Also, Bogui, these Donghao people, if you can use them well, they will definitely be able to play their role, not inferior to the two armies of the north and the south... Don't give up on yourself....." The lieutenant looked at him with some deep depth and said.
Gongsun Chan nodded, bowed to the captain, and walked out.
"Captain Gongsun, how's it going?"
The Donghao people gathered at the door and asked expectantly.
Gongsun Chan looked at them, showed a rare smile, and said, "The captain is very happy, wait for the war to end... and it will be given to you.... Fish pond...."
"Hahaha, great! In fact, there is no need to give fish ponds, as long as we can return to Donghao, Donghao's fish and shrimp, that is the most! The soldiers talked excitedly, Gongsun Chan smiled, watching them chat, but did not stop, at least, these cowardly fellows, when they fled, did not forget to take me, didn't they?
And after the news of the heroic battalion winning the first merit and capturing thousands of prisoners came out, Lu Bu almost dropped his jaw in shock, what happened? This Gongsun Zhan, isn't it comparable to Han Xinbai's talent? Leading a group of Donghao people can also win the first merit?? The rest of the generals also couldn't believe it, but on the side of Goguryeo, the majesty of the Han Xiaoyong battalion was heard.
I heard that the Han Dynasty has a brave battalion, 5,000 men and horses, everyone is brave and good at fighting, and has been running for several hours for a long distance, completely annihilating the army of Goguryeo, without a single casualty!
Within the Han Dynasty, the battle situation in the Northeast was also quickly spread, and the most excited was Liu Donghao, who burst into tears with excitement.
At this time, the Son of Heaven also did not care about the war situation in the Northeast, after the loss of Wang Fu in the court, he needed to settle immediately, he first found Cao Cao over, met alone, Cao Cao came to Luoyang for a long time, and even, Himihu's abdomen became more and more round, during this period, he found a concubine, no idle things to worry about, and the life was very moist.
After the Son of Heaven summoned him, he immediately rushed to the palace.
The young Tianzi's chin has grown fine fluff, he frowned, holding a book, and is concentrating on reading, Cao Cao stood aside, lowered his head, and sighed, of course he knew that this was a bad habit handed down from Emperor Xiaokang, and he always liked to hang the minister for a while, and the little fat man looked at it for a long time before he slowly put down the scroll.
"Cao Gong, if you are Situ, what should you do?"
Cao Cao was taken aback and almost didn't stand firm.
"Your Majesty!"
"Panic!"
His father Cao Song is now just one of the nine Qings, how can he be the head of the hundred officials and serve as Situ? In terms of talent, he is confident, but this position of Situ is not only talent, but also about seniority, in front of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, he Cao Cao, a descendant, what qualifications do he have to serve as Situ?
The Son of Heaven smiled but did not speak.
