Chapter 426: The Great Battle Outside Tanxian County (3)

He said, "I dare not persuade the king to withdraw his troops. It's just that the outcome of the battlefield is unpredictable. For the sake of the king's safety, it is better to ask the king to break through the siege first and garrison troops outside the battlefield. ”

Xu You also said: "Yes, king, now is not the time to be angry..." ”

"Who's angry with you?"

Yuan Shao said angrily: "It is for the sake of the overall situation that I have to stay." I don't believe that 300,000 elites can't stop Lu Bu's Yangzhou army. Win today, no matter what! ”

"Yes..."

Yuan Shao said this, and it was not good to persuade him again.

Xu You, who was reprimanded by Yuan Shao, was also afraid that Yuan Shao would blame him for disturbing the morale of the army, so he didn't dare to say more.

The three of them stood on the cart and watched the battle for a long time...

Until a quarter of an hour later.

Mu Guiying's Danyang soldiers rendezvous with Bai Qi.

As Xu Yu expected. Bai Qi's tens of thousands of troops, after receiving Mu Guiying's support, the offensive became more and more rapid. Yuan Shao's 20,000 Chinese troops couldn't stop it at all. Gao Ran's crossbow troops were also unable to exert their strength, and they were helpless to see the enemy rushing towards them.

Fu Zhu called the herald: "Go to the rear army quickly, and let the second son come back to help." ”

"No."

The herald did not dare to delay and went quickly.

Xu You was shocked: "Lord Fu, you let the second son come back to help." What to do with the rear army? Who will face Liang Hongyu? In case Liang Hongyu breaks through to the Chinese army, we really have no way to escape. ”

"Shut up!" Yuan Shao scolded.

"Yes..."

Xu You was anxious, but he didn't dare to ignore Yuan Shao's words, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.

Gao Ran returned to the Chinese army and reported to Yuan Shao: "King." The white soldiers have shields that can withstand our crossbow arrows. If the 20,000 soldiers in front can't resist it, so that Bai Qi and Mu Guiying rush over, the last general is afraid that he won't be able to protect the Chinese army... ”

"General Gao Ran doesn't have to worry. The second son immediately came back to help. Frustrated.

"Hmm."

Yuan Shao also nodded.

Gao Ran hugged his fists and said: "The last general understands." Before the second son came to help, even if the last general fought to the death, he had to block Bai Qi. ”

..................

Fan Lihua stood on the city tower, looking at the stalemate of the battle, even more anxious than Yuan Shao.

Originally, this battle was to scare Yuan Shao and kill tens of thousands of Yuan troops by the way.

She even prepared the banners of Li Yuanba and Xiang Yu, as long as Yuan Shao withdrew, she would let people hang them up and chase them all the way. Unexpectedly, Yuan Shao fought to the death and did not retreat, and with a few elites under his command, he blocked the Yangzhou army.

If we continue to fight like this, I am afraid that the gains will outweigh the losses.

"Someone..."

"General."

A veteran with gray sideburns walked up to Fan Lihua's side.

"How many soldiers are there in the city?" Fan Lihua subconsciously looked at the veteran, and suddenly felt familiar: "Your name is Lu Yi, right?" ”

"Yes."

Fan Lihua said: "We haven't seen each other for many years. Haven't you already withdrawn to Xiapi, why are you still in Tan County? ”

(Note: When LΓΌ Bu first arrived in Xuzhou, he did not have many trustworthy generals under his command.) Hundreds of Xiliang veterans were selected, and six of them were given the surname Lu and served as the county lieutenants of the six counties of Xuzhou. οΌ‰

Lu Yi said: "The last general is the lieutenant of the East China Sea appointed by the lord himself. Without the order of the lord, he will not leave when he dies. ”

"The general's loyalty makes Pear Blossom admire it very much."

"Don't dare..."

Fan Lihua pulled back the topic and said: "Now that the war is deadlocked, I urgently need reinforcements. If there are 20,000 troops, if they are killed from here, Yuan Shao will be defeated. The old general was ordered to garrison the East China Sea, how many soldiers and horses did he have in hand? ”

Lu Yidao: "Back to the general's words, now in the city... Not even five thousand soldiers left. The soldiers defending the city were all sent out by the general, and the last general was coming for this matter. ”

It is necessary to mention the following.

As early as a month ago, Fan Lihua ordered the officials and people of all counties to move to Xiapi. Lu Yi was afraid that Donghai County would be lost, so he did not follow Fan Lihua's orders. Besides, the local army is not under the control of Fan Lihua, and Lu Yi has the right not to comply.

Now Fan Lihua is stationed in Tan County, and Lu Yi is afraid of being punished, so he does not show up.

It wasn't until all the garrisons in Tan County were sent out that Lu Yi rushed over.

Fan Lihua understood what Lu Yi meant, and said: "The war with Yuan Shao is related to the survival of the six counties of Xuzhou, and it is definitely not a matter of one county in the East China Sea. Veteran generals must know how to focus on the overall situation. ”

Lu Yidao: "But now there are really no 20,000 soldiers in the city..." ”

"I know."

Fan Lihua was also in a hurry: "You are like this." Immediately return to the city to post notices and sound gongs to warn. It is said that Tanxian County is about to be captured by Yuan Shao, and there are people who are willing to help, bring their own weapons, and assemble in Dongcheng. I will personally lead them and defeat Yuan's army. ”

"Yes..."

Lu Yi also knew that the situation was urgent, so he turned around and went back to the city.

"You wait..."

Fan Lihua thought about it, and felt that it was inappropriate: "The notice should be written like this." My hundreds of thousands of Yangzhou troops are fighting a decisive battle with Yuan Shao. At the moment, the winner is scored. If there are people who are willing to help, please bring your own weapons and assemble in the eastern city. General Fan would take the lead and lead them to defeat Yuan's army. After that, a reward of 1,000 pieces was given to each of the people who participated in the war. ”

"You only have one hour to spare. Gather as much as you can. All the weapons and armor in the county guard were transported to the eastern city and distributed to the people. ”

Lu Yi asked: "The people have not participated in the war, can they beat the Yuan army?" ”

"I don't care about that. I want someone now. Both men and women are fine. As long as they rush out through this door, even if it is for show, it is better than sitting still. You know... If this battle is lost, the East China Sea will be in danger! Xuzhou is in danger! ”

"The last general will go immediately!"

Lu Yi ran back to the city.

In an hour's time, gather all the people to defend against the enemy. It sounds incredible. Fan Lihua was also dizzy, and she couldn't hurt the innocent and Lu Bu's instructions.

A thousand words in one sentence: "No matter what the price is, you must defeat Yuan Jun!" ”

.................

An hour later.

Bai Qi and Liang Hongyu's troops hit Yuan Shao's Chinese army (very close to Yuan Shao). Encountering Yuan Shang's Xiandeng Dead and Gao Lan's crossbow troops, they resisted desperately, and the two sides fell into a melee.

And in the front army, the left flank and the rear army. Although it can suppress the enemy, it cannot win.

At this moment, a particularly funny scene appeared...

Fan Lihua rushed out of the city with more than 10,000 people. Went straight to Yuan Shao's Daxu.

There are more than 10,000 people, old and young, men and women. Some were holding firewood knives, others with sticks. Only a few wore armor, and the rest were in normal attire.

It looks like a rabble.

But it was this rabble that became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

No one could have imagined their appearance.

The surprising reinforcements are bound to turn into sharp knives that stab Yuan Shao to death.

Under the leadership of Fan Lihua, the people followed the bloody road of Bai Qi and crushed the past like a bamboo.

Yuan Shang's first deceased soldier was entangled by Bai Qi's 70,000 troops and couldn't pull it out.

Gao Ran's crossbow troops were unable to exert their strength.

More than 100,000 Yuan troops were arranged around Yuan Shao, and they watched Fan Lihua's more than 10,000 people approaching Yuan Shao's Daxu and could not rush to the rescue.

"Fan Lihua is really dizzy, even the people in the city are sent out to fight..."

"The king should not be underestimated."

Xu Yu said cautiously: "Our army has all joined the war. Fan Lihua still has more than 10,000 soldiers (people) to kill us. Even a rabble needs a troop of men and horses to resist. ”
