Chapter 226: Tian Chou Suppresses the Rebellion in a First Battle The two grandsons are fighting
Yan Rou learned that there was a large army behind him, knew that he had fallen into Tian Chou's plan, and he didn't know how many enemy troops there were behind him, and he looked at the empty camp in front of him and had no idea for a while!
"General, presumably Tian Zitai set us up this time, the number of ambushes in the rear is unknown, and the camp in front is empty, it must be not easy to go to the back.
Even if Tian Zitai wants to annihilate us, he will inevitably arrange a large number of ambushes on the way to our retreat, and it will be difficult for us to break through, because Tian Chou thinks that we will desperately break through!
But if we continue to move forward and go to the front, although Tian Chou is prepared, he will definitely not prepare too much, maybe we can take Tian Chou by surprise, so maybe we can turn defeat into victory! Xian Yuyin opened his mouth to suggest!
When Yan Rou heard this, she thought about it and felt that there was some truth, and there was no other way at this time, so Yan Rou opened her mouth and shouted: "Brothers, the brave will win when they meet on the narrow road, kill them with me and capture Tian Chou alive!" ”
"Capture Tian Chou alive!"
"Capture Tian Chou alive!"
Then Yan Rou led the army to the camp to kill, but after the army just entered the camp, Qi Zhou, who had fled back to the camp before, was already waiting at the triphorse rope arranged earlier, and when he saw Yan Rou's army entering the camp, they pulled up the triphorse rope one after another, and suddenly the army under Yan Rou's command fell in pieces.
For Yan Rou, although he lost some of his soldiers, he also beat the West Camp alive and then went to the Middle Camp.
However, as soon as they entered the Zhongda camp, Gongsun Shu and Tian Chou each led 10,000 people to kill, and Yan Rou's army was suddenly in chaos, and Guan Jing behind Yan Rou also led troops to kill.
Yan Rou was naturally invincible, countless people were killed in the battle, and the remaining soldiers were also frightened, and there were countless people who knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
Tian Chou saw that Yan Rou and the others were willing to surrender and won a big victory in this battle, so he gladly accepted the surrender of Yan Rou and others.
In this battle, Tian Chou only lost less than 5,000 soldiers, but captured less than 20,000 cavalry. Moreover, Tian Chou selected elite backbones from the current three armies to serve as officers of this captive army, forming an army of 20,000 people.
Then, Tian Chou ordered Gongsun Shu, Guan Jing, and Zou Dan to garrison Dai County, Shanggu County, and Zhuo County respectively. And Tian Chou himself led an army of 30,000 to return to Guangyang County, of course, Yan Rou, Xian Yufu and other generals were also brought back to Ji County, Guangyang County by Tian Chou.
After returning to Jixian County, Tian Chou reported the battle report of Yan Rou's rebellion to Gongsun Zhan, as for Yan Rou, Xian Yufu and others, the appointment of others waited for Gongsun Zhan's return.
Gongsun Zhan, who was in Liaoxi County, was naturally overjoyed when he received Tian Chou's battle report. Then he wrote back to Tian Chou, ordering Gongsun Fan to lead 50,000 troops, and Yan Rou, Xian Yufu, Xian Yuyin and Qi Zhou will go north to Liaoxi County together!
Moreover, at this time, Gongsun Zhan's 80,000 troops in Liaoxi County had already rested, and Gongsun Du's advance army, the 50,000 troops led by Yang Yi and Liu Yi had also arrived in Liaodong's vassal country, and the war was about to break out!
Gongsun Chan sent troops from Yangle County, the county of Liaoxi County, to attack Changli County, a subordinate country in eastern Liaodong, and the entire army of 80,000 was divided into two armies, the front army of 20,000 people was the vanguard, and Gongsun Chan himself personally led an army of 55,000 and 5,000 white horse Yicong as the rear army, and the two armies were separated by ten miles to echo!
When Yang Yi and Liu Yi learned that Gongsun Zhan was leading an army from Yangle County, they sent someone to Gongsun Du for help, and the other was to discuss how to deal with it!
After a night of discussion, Yang Yi and Liu Yi decided to divide their troops to garrison Changli County, Yang Yi led 30,000 troops to set up a large camp in the southwest of Changli County, and Liu Yi led 20,000 troops and 10,000 old and weak soldiers in the city to garrison Changli County!
Ten days later, Gongsun Zhan's vanguard army arrived as scheduled, and saw that Yangyi and Liu Yi defended each other with the big camp outside Changli County and the big camp outside the city, and knew that they couldn't win, so they went out of the camp ten miles west of Changli County! That night, Gongsun Chan arrived at the camp with an army of 60,000.
In the next few days, Gongsun Chan led the army to fight every day, but Yang Yi and Liu Yi could not hold out.
After all, the county seat of Changli is a county of Liaodong, so the scale of the entire city is also relatively large, plus Liu Yi led 30,000 people to garrison, it can be regarded as impregnable!
If Gongsun Zhan only led 40,000 or 50,000 soldiers to attack Changli County, he would not be able to make meritorious contributions; And if he leads the whole army to attack Changli County, then Yangyi will lead a large army to attack Gongsun Chan behind him!
After so many times, Gongsun Chan did not take advantage of it in the slightest!
Then Gongsun Zhan set his sights on the camp outside the city of Yangyi, and rebuilt his own camp in the west of the camp of Yangyi!
Previously, the Lulong Fortress in Liaoxi County was defeated, and Gongsun Du knew that Gongsun Zan would inevitably lead troops to attack the subject country of Liaodong, so he also made sufficient preparations, and the grain and grass in Changli County were enough for Liu Yi and Yangyi's army to eat for several months!
Gongsun Chan saw that he had no choice for the time being, so he stationed in the camp and waited for Gongsun Fan's 50,000 troops to arrive before discussing!
After waiting for a few more days, the scouts sent out by Gongsun Chan came back to report that Gongsun Duqin led an army of 50,000 to Liaodong County to kill the subject states of Liaodong to support Yangyi and Liu Yi! And it is only more than 50 miles away from Changli County!
Gongsun Zan was overjoyed when he heard the news, and then led 50,000 troops and 5,000 white horses to kill Gongsun Du's army overnight.
A day later, Gongsun Chan encountered Gongsun Du as scheduled, and Gongsun Du was more careful in this march due to his previous defeat, so he did not receive an ambush from Gongsun Chan.
As for Gongsun Zhan's battle, Gongsun Du only stuck to the camp and couldn't come out, so a big battle of equal strength did not happen!
Thirty miles away in Changli County, there was a big war, stationed in Changli County, Yangyi, stationed outside Changli County, that night detected Gongsun Chan led his troops to the east to kill, knowing that Gongsun Du's reinforcements were about to arrive, so he also secretly sent troops overnight to follow Gongsun Zhan, ready to meet Gongsun Du!
However, Gongsun Zhan's deputy general Shan Jing, who stayed in the camp, also discovered this situation, so Shan Jing took up the army in the camp and directly attacked the Yangyi rear army, but the Yangyi army was in a hurry, but it was a small defeat, and then led the remaining 25,000 troops to retreat into Changli County!
Gongsun Zhan confronted Gongsun Du for four or five days without any results, and learned that after a small victory, Yangyi had retreated to Changli City, so he did not confront Gongsun Du, but returned to the camp outside Changli County again, and retreated ten miles to the village!
And Gongsun Du led an army of 50,000 to occupy the camp outside the original Yangyi, and the Yangyi in the city were horns of each other. After that, 30,000 troops were transferred from Changli City!
In this way, Gongsun Du has the strength to fight with Gongsun Chan outside the city! And Gongsun Du also led the troops to attack Gongsun Chan with Liu Yi in the city several times!
However, Gongsun Chan is not an easy person, although Gongsun Du's troops are slightly superior, but after the battle at the airport, Gongsun Chan did not suffer!
Because the two have won and lost each other in several battles, and they can't win in one battle, so the two are not in a hurry to fight!
Gongsun Chan didn't want to fight Gongsun Du because he was waiting for Gongsun Fan's 50,000 army!!
Gongsun Du was reluctant to fight Gongsun Chan at this time because the young man who had just been recruited had not yet been able to train into an army, and could only defend the city, and Gongsun Du wanted to fight with Gongsun Chan after training!
And it was such a wait, and the balance of victory began to slowly tip towards Gongsun Zhan!
