Chapter 290: Breaking the Yellow Turban Returns to the Heart
"Report ...... Emergency military intelligence! ”
When Liu Bei was about to send an order for the army to set up camp, suddenly, several scouts galloped over!
"Come on!"
"Lord Qiqi, there are about 50,000 thieves, and they are besieging Kong Guoxiang in Duchang County!" One of the scouts hurriedly replied.
"You know...... Where are the thieves? Liu Bei thought for a moment and asked again.
"Back to the lord, it can be seen from the banner that these thieves are the remnants of the Yellow Turban!" The other scout immediately replied.
"In this case, I personally led 5,000 foot riders to break the enemy with Yide and Wenchang!"
Liu Bei had already made up his mind, turned his head to look at Chen Qun, and said loudly: "Mr. Yuanfu (Zhou Cang's cousin) Yuan Jian, with the rest of the soldiers, escort the grain and grass slowly!" ”
"Slow down!"
"The remnants of the Yellow Turban are known as 50,000, but the strength of the battle is only seven or eight thousand, and the rest are the families of the thieves!"
"The thieves seem to be powerful, and the siege equipment must not be complete. Duchang County is bordered by Weishui in the east, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is difficult to capture it when the thieves are eager. ”
"Besides, the army has marched eighty miles today, and it is a little tired, so it is not appropriate to rush forward lightly at this time!"
"The lord can order the army to repair all night, bury the pot and cook tomorrow, and when the time comes, send troops to attack the thieves, and they will be able to break the thieves in a battle!"
Chen Qun's heart was already determined, and he immediately spoke.
"What the long text (Chen Qun's expression) says is very true!"
Liu Bei thought about it for a while, and intuitively felt that Chen Qun's plan was feasible, and he was overjoyed, and immediately gave Chen Qun a salute, and said loudly: "If it weren't for Mr. Qun's reminder, it would be a big deal to be prepared!" ”
"Thank you for your love!"
Chen Qun was very moved when he saw Liu Bei treating him like this, and immediately bowed and thanked him.
Subsequently, Liu Bei hid the army in a valley in the territory of Yingling, so that the army could seize the time to rest!
……
However, he said that since Liu Bei went to Donglai and Kong Rong took office as the minister of Beihai, the two of them have been assassinated in Qingzhou and Xuzhou, and have repeatedly crusaded against the remnants of the Yellow Turban in the two states. Forcing the remnants of the Yellow Turbans to dare to hide and escape between the mountains, forests and ravines!
It is the middle of winter now, and it is the time when the Kwantung coalition army is crusading against Dong Zhuo, and the remnants of the Yellow Turbans in Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou and other places have taken the opportunity to rob homes and make waves.
Seeing that the grain and grass of the 50,000 people in the department could not be sustained, Guan Hai had to take a large group to loot the Beihai Kingdom to supplement the grain and grass of the department.
On the first day of Guan Hai's siege of Duchang County, he killed Zong Bao, a general under Kong Rong, and Kong Rong was defeated and retreated to the city.
The next day, Wu Anguo went out to fight against Guan Hai, and the two fought for more than 150 rounds, and Wu Anguo was defeated. Kong Rong then ordered his soldiers to defend the city and not engage the enemy army!
Guan Hai besieged Duchang County for more than ten days, but he couldn't break the city, so he had to surround Duchang County!
……
At the end of the next day, Liu Beijun had a meal, and quietly rushed to Duchang County with people and horses wrapped in hooves all the way.
In the middle of the day, Liu Beijun came to the south of Duchang County, twenty miles. Liu Bei ordered Zhang Fei and Wei Yan to take 1,500 men each to attack the enemy troops in the west and north of Duchang County.
As soon as the time came, Liu Bei and Zhou Cangqin led 2,000 people to the southern camp of the Guanhai army.
At this time, it was dark in the camp of the Guanhai army, and there were very few soldiers patrolling. It turned out that Guan Hai besieged Duchang County for more than ten days, and he didn't see Kong Rong's army go out of the city to fight, so he gradually relaxed his vigilance!
Liu Bei saw that the soldiers of his department pried open the door of the enemy army, and then took the lead, holding a double-strand sword, and rushed in with a loud shout. Zhou Cang hurriedly galloped forward, protecting Liu Bei's left and right.
Liu Beijun's soldiers were not in a hurry to kill, but set fire to each other, create chaos, and intimidate the enemy from the scene and psychology.
Almost at the same time, the west and north battalions of the Guanhai army were also as bright as day, and the wails of the thieves and soldiers and their families resounded in the sky.
At this time, Guan Hai, who was in the big tent in Nanying, woke up and saw that the fire was burning everywhere in the camp and his own soldiers were running for their lives, so he knew that the general trend had gone.
Guan Hai didn't dare to fight, so he hurriedly took hundreds of soldiers, fought a bloody road, went out of the walled gate, and headed towards the east of Duchang County.
Of the defeated soldiers of the western and northern battalions of the Guanhai army, only 35,000 people were able to escape, and the rest were all lying on the ground begging for mercy.
Liu Bei saw that the defeat of the enemy army was decided, so he ordered Zhang Fei and Wei Yan to surrender and take prisoners, and not to slaughter the soldiers!
In the middle of the day, Liu Bei left Wei Yan and 2,000 soldiers and ordered him to take care of the prisoners. Subsequently, Liu Bei, together with Zhang Fei and Zhou Cang, brought more than 2,400 people across Weishui and went to chase Guan Hai.
Besides, Guan Hai took hundreds of soldiers to cross Weishui to the east, and saw that there were no pursuers behind him, so he ordered the soldiers to rest for a while.
At this moment, there was a sound of horses' hooves, and Guan Hai hurriedly got on his horse and looked around.
I saw that a cavalry in the east, galloping horses to kill, in front of its army array, a hand dragging a long knife, wearing a green brocade robe; One is armed with a spear and silver armor.
Just when Guan Hai hesitated, the silver-armored general rode his horse and speared, killed the soldiers of Guan Hai's army, and came straight to Guan Hai.
Guan Hai saw that there was no way to escape, so he waved his sword and galloped to meet him. The two fought for more than 90 rounds, Guan Hai's arms were already weak and weak, his knife skills were chaotic, and life and death were in an instant.
"Strongman...... Spare his life! ”
At this moment, a loud cheer came!
This loud cheer came from Liu Bei. It turned out that Liu Bei saw that Guan Hai's martial arts were extraordinary, and he loved it; In addition, Zhou Cangjin was willing to persuade Guan Hai to surrender. Liu Bei immediately decided to leave Guan Hai alive!
After another five or six rounds, only one exclamation was heard.
When he looked again, Guan Hai had fallen under his horse; The spear of the silver-armored general was less than five inches away from Guan Hai's throat!
"Big brother! Third brother! ”
"Second brother!"
"Second Brother ......"
Guan Yugao galloped towards Liu Bei and Zhang Fei. Liu Bei and Zhang Fei shouted, and galloped towards Guan Yu.
In a moment, the three brothers of Taoyuan will be in one place, and the three of them will see each other, and they will have to ask for warmth.
"General Guan...... Are you willing to surrender to me Liu Bei? ”
Then, Liu Bei stepped to Guan Hai, helped him up with both hands, and said with a straight face.
"Sin will be punished!"
Guan Hai was overjoyed, but hesitated: "It's just that Liu Yuanjun is willing to accept it...... The subordinates of the sin general? ”
"What a righteous man!"
Liu Bei saw that Guan Hai was very righteous, and he liked it more and more in his heart, and immediately replied: "If they are willing to go to Donglai, they can join the army or farm!" ”
"Sin will be controlled, I am willing to swear allegiance to the lord to the death, and live up to the grace of the lord for the rest of my life!"
Guan Hai was overjoyed when he saw that Liu Bei was willing to accept them, and immediately knelt on the ground and said loudly.
In fact, the remnants of the Yellow Turbans plundered the people everywhere, except for some of them who were by bad nature, and most of them were because they had no land to grow and no food to eat!
Liu Bei was overjoyed, and hurriedly helped Guan Hai up and returned the salute.
Liu Bei came to the silver-armored young man again, looked at it, and loved it in his heart, and he already had the intention of soliciting!
