Chapter 284: The Northern Rivalry (7)
"There are nearly 30,000 cavalry under our command, we only need to stop the enemy for a while, and we don't need to fight hard." Gao Gan Chao Han Meng explained.
Han Meng was silent for a moment, and then nodded, and there was no objection.
"Alright, let's leave, three generals!" High arterial road.
"Thank you General Gaogan, the two of us will be rewarded in the future." Bai Huan and Guo Daxian glanced at each other and hugged their fists towards Gao Gan.
Gao Gan nodded and said, "If the two generals meet my lord, I also hope that the two generals can!" ”
Two ru fractions.
"Sir, here they are!"
"Hehe, don't you think it's too late to retreat now?" Cheng Yu smiled faintly, but ignored it.
"Order Xu Rong's legion to clean up the battlefield, and the heavy infantry corps to defend in formation, and not to take the initiative to attack!" Cheng Yu said.
"Ah, this..., yes!" The officer was stunned, then agreed.
"Gao Gan, they are...!" Han Meng and Gaogan were leading the army to prepare for a big battle with the Bingzhou army, but they saw that the Bingzhou army was not moving, which made the two of them have doubts in their hearts.
Gao Ran shook his head and said, "I don't know!" ”
An hour later, Han Meng and Gao Gan led the army to retreat, and Cheng Yu did not lead the army to catch up.
"Report!"
"What?"
"Sir, General Zhang Xiu has news."
Cheng Yu took a look at it, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said to an officer beside him: "Order General Xu Huang to lead the cavalry of Bingzhou to go south immediately, join up with General Zhang Xiu, and strive to annihilate Yuan Shao's troops in one fell swoop." ”
"Yes, sir!"
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
A low rumbling sound sounded, and 10,000 iron horsemen poured out of the camp, and under the leadership of Xu Huang, they rushed towards the south.
On the north bank of Zhangshui, Zhangshui has been crossed at this moment, on the south bank of Zhangshui, nearly 50,000 of Gaoran's baggage troops were annihilated in one fell swoop, and the army that was blocked by the river of the Bingzhou army also crossed 5,000, and the loss of grain and grass was countless, it seems that Yuan Shao was only forced to retreat to Yecheng this time, even if Yuan Shao still had nearly 100,000 soldiers left, but there was no food to eat!
Compared with Yuan Shao, Gao Ran is even more miserable, at least Yuan Shao still retains nearly half of his troops, and Gao Ran is left with a lonely family in addition to these 100 or so people, and the soldiers under his command are clean and embarrassed.
When the two saw each other, they naturally sighed, of course, more fear and anger.
At this time, the battle of the Bohai Sea has also ended, under the surprise attack of Liu Yi and Sun Guan, the blue wolf camp successfully took the Bohai Sea, and the Bohai Sea is now completely under the control of Zhang Zhen, and Liu Yi and Sun Guan are leading people to set up camp in Hejian and Leping fifty miles away from the Bohai Sea.
After the trial and others won the Bohai Sea, they couldn't help but be overjoyed, where is the Bohai Sea! Bohai County is Yuan Shao's old bottom, and it is not easy to break Yuan Shao's arm when he takes Bohai.
"Strategist, where are they, lord?" Bohai Taishou Mansion Inner Hall, Liu Yi asked.
The trial match can be described as high-spirited now, and he is naturally happy to capture the Bohai Sea, and immediately sneered and said: "General Liu Yi, we have captured the Bohai Sea, as long as the lord and they lead the army to attack Nanpi together, in time, we will definitely be able to defeat Yuan Shao, subdue Jizhou, and then use this as a springboard, it is not impossible to fight for hegemony!" ”
"Hey!" Liu Yi nodded excitedly.
"By the way, immediately send someone to contact Sun Guan and ask him to hurry up and lead the army to come, the county towns around Bohai County should be almost under control, and then send an order to the lord that we have surrounded Nanpi."
Liu Yi nodded and said, "Yes, military advisor." ”
When the order was judged, Xu Huang had already led 10,000 iron horsemen to join Zhang Xiu, and the two immediately got in touch.
After converging with Gao Lan, Yuan Shao, after discussing with Yu Gen and the two, led the army to the east, they wanted to bypass Zhangshui and go out of Wuyang, and when they returned to Yecheng, it would be safe, so the three did not have many differences, and they reached an agreement.
After Xu Huang and Zhang Xiu converged, nearly 30,000 iron horsemen followed Yuan Shao and the others.
The enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy retreats and I advance, the enemy is stationed and disturbs me, and the enemy is tired and I fight!
This is the tactic they adopted, they want to consume Yuan Shao and the others alive.
And Zhang Zhen, who got the news, was also very high-minded, and immediately ordered Zhao Yun and Tai Shici to attack Nanpi with the support of more than 50 catapults.
The next day, after paying a price of nearly 20,000 rao, the Liaodong army finally broke through this Xiongcheng, and Nanpi City changed hands.
After conquering Nanpi, Zhang Zhen led the army towards Xindu non-stop, and joined the cavalry corps of the trial, and he wanted to take the Hejian County area in one fell swoop with the power of thunder.
As soon as Yuan Shang, who was in Yecheng, heard that Nanpi was lost, he left Yuan Xi and Feng Ji to defend the Yecheng area after a panic, and he brought Zhu Ling, Lu Weiheng and other nearly 100,000 troops to support, and drove all the way to Lecheng before stopping.
Now, in addition to the Jizhou region, Yuan Shao only has the land of Hedong that he just took not long ago.
Guo Tu and the others were anxious, but there was nothing they could do, and he was helpless now.
Just a few days later, Zhang Zhen led the army to Nanpi, and Xu Huang, Zhang Xiu and others finally made a move.
Under the harassment of three in a row, the remaining 100,000 Yuan Shao's army has been exhausted by the state cavalry, on the third night, Xu Huang and Zhang Xiu led 30,000 iron cavalry to rush into Yuan Shao's army in two ways, after a burst of assault, Yuan Shao's army collapsed, Yu Yigen finally did not escape the fate of being split in half by Xu Huang's axe, Yuan Shao Gaolan and let only escape with less than 5,000 remnants.
In this battle, a total of 80,000 troops of Yuan Shao and others were annihilated, of which nearly half of the prisoners were captured, the remnants of the Yellow Turban were killed in Digen, Yuan Shao and Gao Ran fled in a hurry, and the 200,000 army was wiped out in less than a month.
Yuan Shao and others were destroyed, and Xu Huang and Zhang Xiu led 20,000 iron cavalry to reinforce Zhang Zhen.
And Cheng Yu also took the Bingzhou Legion, the Crossbow Legion, and the Heavy Armored Infantry to join the trial and others.
The time has unconsciously arrived in May, spring has passed, and summer is quietly coming.
After annihilating Yuan Shao and the others Rao San, Xu Huang and the others finally rushed to Nanpi and joined Zhang Zhen there.
So far, Zhang Zhen has a total of Xu Huang's Bingzhou Iron Cavalry, Zhao Yunjun, Taishi Cijun, Guan Yujun, and Zhang Xiujun, a total of 100,000 troops, and the soldiers are straight to the skin.
Yuan Tan has no choice, except for the soldiers who returned from the defeat of the Bohai Sea, Nanpi City is only 50,000 troops, and most of the rest are new troops, so Yuan Tan intends to defend passively, if Nanpi is taken by Zhang Zhenjun, Jizhou will be all exposed to Zhang Zhen's troops, such a situation is as dangerous as an egg, can Jizhou still be able to prevent it, the answer is definitely no.
Yuan Tan sent Han Juzi to lead the troops to defend the four gates.
