Chapter 224: Yan Rou Shanggu County Rebellion Gongsun Zhan forcibly occupied Lu Long
Yuan Shao occupied the entire land of Bingzhou in less than a year, and at the same time reached an alliance agreement with Xianbei's Kirby, so the entire Bingzhou and Jizhou entered a stage of rapid development!
Moreover, Yuan Shao has to resist only Gongsun Zan in Youzhou, Tian Kai in Qingzhou and Cao Cao in Yanzhou, Henan!
However, Gongsun Chan also entered the critical moment of the battle at this time, at the beginning of the year, when Gongsun Chan was in the southern counties of Youzhou, Gongsun Du sent troops to prepare to seize the entire southern part of Youzhou when Gongsun Chan and Liu Yu were both defeated!
However, although the decisive battle between Liu Yu and Gongsun Chan was fierce but very fast, and at the same time, Tian Chou's surrender to Gongsun Chan made Gongsun Chan quickly stabilize the southern part of Youzhou, so Gongsun Du lost the opportunity to seize the southern part of Youzhou.
And Gongsun Zhan was not so easy to get along with, pacified Liu Yu, and learned that Gongsun Du led his troops out of Liaodong, so he entrusted the entire state affairs to Tian Chou, and he personally led the army to the north, ready to fight with Gongsun Du!
The next time Gongsun Chan went out to fight Gongsun Du, he led a total of 100,000 troops, including 50,000 cavalry, 50,000 foot soldiers, and then 5,000 white horses and righteous soldiers for Gongsun Chan and went out with the army!
A group of less than 110,000 troops set off from Jixian County, Youzhou, and went all the way to Liaoxi County!
When Gongsun Du learned that Gongsun Zhan had raised 100,000 troops to attack him, he was also quite surprised and a little scared, so he withdrew his troops from Lingzhi County to Lulong Fortress. Rely on the Great Wall to defend Gongsun Zhan!
And Gongsun Zhan killed all the way to Lulong Fortress, under Chen Bing's fortress, and then personally led 5,000 white horses to call for battle from before the Lulong Fortress Pass!
Gongsun Kang, the general guarding the pass, heard that Gongsun Chan scolded Gongsun Du, and he couldn't bear it, so he led 5,000 troops to fight with Gongsun Zhan!
Gongsun Zan saw Gongsun Kang riding and killing, and he didn't hesitate at all to push his horse to kill Gongsun Kang, the two of them intersected with each other, and the battle was not more than ten rounds, and Gongsun Kang was beheaded under the horse!
Then Gongsun Zhan took advantage of the chaos of the enemy army and led his troops to attack fiercely, killing more than 3,000 cavalry, while the remaining cavalry fled to Lulong Fortress one after another!
Knowing that Gongsun Kang led his troops to fight Gongsun Zhan, Gongsun Du was also shocked, so he watched the battle with the head of the city, and finally saw Gongsun Chan kill Gongsun Kang, so he said to Yangyi and Liu Yi:
"Gongsun Zhan is extremely brave, and he leads an army of 100,000, if I fight with him in the field, I will definitely lose, and I can only stick to the Lulong Fortress to avoid its sharpness!"
Then, Gongsun Du ordered that all the guards in the Lulong Fortress could only guard the pass and not fight!
Since then, Gongsun Chan has called for battle several times, but he is not allowed to fight with Gongsun Du, and in desperation, Gongsun Chan has to order the army to attack!
It's just that Lulong Fortress is worthy of being a rare Xiongguan in the world, although the Han Dynasty has been around for more than 400 years, and is located inside the Han Dynasty, but it is still repaired every year, and it is extremely majestic!
Therefore, on the first day of the attack, Gongsun Chan only attacked the city of Lulong Fortress after paying the price of 2,000 soldiers, and then after a fierce battle, Gongsun Zhan's army withdrew one after another!
However, the casualties of the defenders in the fortress of Gongsun Dululong were less than 1,000. Seeing this, Gongsun Zhan knew that he would naturally not be able to win the Lulong Fortress with 100,000 troops and 50,000 people, so he extinguished the idea of storming the Lulong Fortress, and instead set up camp to seek a way to attack!
However, not long after, Tian Chou, who was in Jixian County, sent a letter, saying that Daijun Taishou Xian Yufu, Liu Yu's old department Qi Zhou, and Qidu Wei Xian Yuyin promoted Yan Rou as Karasuma Sima, and led his troops out of Daijun to attack Shanggu County.
Yan Rou sent 30,000 troops this time, and most of them were foreign cavalry inside and outside the county. Due to Liu Yu's high prestige among various ethnic groups back then, tens of thousands of young peoples, including Xianbei and Karasuma, joined Yan Rou's team and attacked Shanggu County.
And the garrison in Shanggu County is Zou Dan, a military general under the command of Gongsun Zhan, and Zou Dan only has an army of 15,000, so he can only rely on the city wall to defend!
Tian Chou received Zou Dan's battle report, and quickly ordered Gongsun Shu to lead an army of 10,000 to support Zou Dan, and at the same time ordered Zhuo County to guard Guan Jing Lingzhuo County's 10,000 troops to support Zou Dan as soon as possible!
In this way, he defended Yan Rou with an army of 35,000 generals without falling behind, and Tian Chou wrote to Gongsun Zhan, but he did not need Gongsun Chan to lead his troops back to Guangyang County, but hoped that Gongsun Chan would give Tian Chou a chance for himself.
However, Tian Chou hoped that Gongsun Chan would let him go to Daijun to persuade Yan Rou to surrender, and explained his mistake to Gongsun Zhan: because Daijun was too far away, the pacification of the foreign clan had not yet been completed, which led to Yan Rou's rebellion!
and made a military order to Gongsun Zhan, and if he didn't succeed, he would become benevolent; In the end, Tian Chou suggested to Gongsun Zhan that the attack on Lulong Fortress could be used as a breakthrough in the rebellion of Yan Rou, so that the whole army would feint and retreat, and lead Gongsun Du to pursue at the lower pass!
After Gongsun Chan received Tian Chou's letter, he first did not consider the battle situation of Lulong Fortress and the battle situation of Yan Rou's rebellion in Shanggu County. The first thing he considered was that Tian Chou asked for orders to talk about descending Yan Rou!
Tian Chou is not very old, because Liu Yu has the wisdom of knowing people, so Tian Chou has served Liu Yu for a long time, and he has all the contacts with Liu Yu's old generals!
And Liu Yu was really killed by Gongsun Zhan, so Gongsun Chan was suspicious that Liu Yu was going to leave Jixian and go to Daijun!
After thinking about it for a long time, Gongsun Chan chose to believe Tian Chou, and then replied to Tian Chou, ordering Tian Chou to be the military advisor of the Shanggu County Army and have full authority to deal with Yan Rou's rebellion!
A few days later, Yan Rou rebelled, and the news of Shanggu County's tight defense had spread throughout Liaoxi County and Lulong Fortress! And Gongsun Du was naturally overjoyed when he heard the news, and ordered the scouts to pay strict attention to the dynamics of Gongsun Zhan's camp!
This night, the lights in Gongsun Zhan's camp were bright, and all the soldiers were packed in a hurry, and then set off at night to withdraw in the direction of Jixian!
And Gongsun Du was overjoyed to be rewarded by the scouts, and personally led an army of 40,000 out of Lulong Fortress, and divided it into two armies, the front army and the rear army, and the super Gongsun Zan battalion to kill!
After Yang Yi, the general of the front army, saw the mountains of grain and grass and the chaotic promise, he hurriedly sent a message to Gongsun Du, and when Gongsun Du heard this, he concluded that Gongsun Zhan had retreated in a hurry!
So he ordered the army to march as quickly as possible, preparing to cover up and kill Gongsun Zhan's army! Even Gongsun Du has already begun to dream of capturing the entire Youzhou!
"Boom, boom, boom....." The sound of boulders rolling down sounded behind Gongsun Du's army, and then tens of thousands of troops appeared from both sides and behind!
But it was Gongsun Zan who listened to Tian Chou's suggestion, used Yan Rou's rebellion as bait, and used his own withdrawal as a scheme, and then led Gongsun Du's army out of Lulong Fortress!
Gongsun Du was really fooled and fell into the encirclement of Gongsun Zhan! The 40,000 army was besieged by the 100,000 army, and Gongsun Zhan personally led 5,000 white horses to rush towards Gongsun Du to kill!
Gongsun Du saw that Gongsun Chan was coming, and the generals under Gongsun Du saw this and knew that there was no chance of winning this battle, so they ordered the elite to escort Gongsun Du to kill in the direction of Lulong Fortress!
In the end, Gongsun Du fought to the death and returned to Lulong Fortress with 2,000 remnants of the defeated general!
However, at the cost of only 5,000 casualties, Gongsun Chan annihilated Gongsun Du's 38,000 army, and captured 30,000 of them!
After cleaning up the entire battlefield, Gongsun Zan ordered Yan Gang to lead an army of 10,000 to guard the prisoners and rebuild the camp, and he personally led an army of 90,000 to kill the Lulong fortress again!!
At this time, Gongsun Du and all the soldiers in the Lulong Fortress were all frightened birds, and when they learned that Gongsun Zhan led the troops to fight overnight, they were afraid of it and had no intention of fighting!
So in just half of the night, Gongsun Zhan took the entire Lulong Fortress, and Gongsun Du returned to Liaoxi County like a lost dog!
