221. Occupy the right Beiping
After Guan Yu defeated Yuan's army in the first battle, Yuan Tan retreated. He couldn't help but retreat, and this battle was less than the eight thousand iron horsemen brought out by his brother, and in the end, only a few hundred horsemen returned to the camp.
Yuan Tan couldn't compete with Guan Yu at all, so he had to retreat. However, Guan Yu didn't plan to let Yuan Tan go like this, he knew that his plan could finally be implemented!
So Guan Yu wrote a letter to Liu Bei, and then left Gao Ran to continue to defend Bohai City, while he pursued Yuan Tan with Pang De, Zhou Cang, and Pei Yuanshao.
Yuan Tan retreated quickly, but the foot soldiers couldn't outrun after all, and a day later, Pei Yuanshao, the vanguard of the Guan Yu faction, caught up with Yuan Tan's rear army. Pei Yuanshao was overjoyed, thinking in his heart that he could make a great contribution this time! So he unceremoniously led two thousand cavalry to attack Yuan Tan's rear army.
A surprise attack caused Yuan Tan's rear army to suffer heavy losses, and at this time Yuan Tan also knew that Guan Yu was leading people to catch up! In a hurry, he was about to lead people to abandon the army and flee. At this time, the judge said: "The eldest prince can't be like this, if you abandon the army and flee, then these people will inevitably submit to Guan Yu, and then Guan Yu's soldiers will be even more difficult to resist!" ”
"So what? I can't run away if I want to go on like this! Yuan Tan said anxiously. The judge pondered for a while and said, "It's better to leave a break!" This place is only two hundred miles away from Fan Yang, and with him fighting to the death to stop the enemy, he can ensure that our brigade can return to Fan Yang safely. ”
"This ......" Yuan Tan turned his head to look at the people around him after hearing this, and hesitated for a while! At this time, a person hugged his fists and said: "The eldest prince, a certain general will ask for an order!" Yuan Tan turned his head and saw that it was a young general named Qin Huai. This Qin Huai is his confidant, and he stood up at the critical moment.
Yuan Tan saw that he was reluctant in his heart, but he knew that he couldn't hesitate anymore at this time. So Yuan Tan gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, then you will lead the army to stop the enemy!" Then the 3,000 men of the rear army have been handed over to you as commander, and you must block the enemy for five hours! Then run for your life! ”
Qin Huai hugged his fists and said, "Take care, the last general is gone!" With that, he turned his horse and led two guards to the rear. Yuan Tan immediately ordered, and the whole army rushed to Fan Yang.
Saying this, Qin Huai, after coming to the rear army, even if he reorganized the army, the team that was scattered by Pei Yuanshao's cavalry was regrouped. The team here had just gathered, and at this time, Pei Yuanshao rushed over again.
This Qin Huai came out of the crowd, stood in front of the formation and shouted: "The general on the opposite side has surrendered!" At this time, Pei Yuanshao had already rushed to the front, he heard Qin Huai's shout, and immediately stopped Ma and stared at him and asked, "Have you really descended?" ”
Qin Huai smiled and took a few steps forward: "As long as you can save our lives, it doesn't matter if you fall!" As he spoke, he approached Pei Yuanshao. Pei Yuanshao looked at him coldly as he approached, and couldn't help sneering in his heart: "As long as you dare to make a sneak attack, I will definitely kill you with a backhand!" ”
However, he would indeed be mistaken, and after this Qin Huai approached, he whispered: "I am the shadow man under the command of the lord, where is General Guan at the moment?" I'm going to report it again! Pei Yuanshao's eyes widened after hearing this, and then he said to Qin Huai: "The second general led the army to be more than fifty miles away from here. If you want to go, I can send someone to take you there. ”
Qin Huai thought for a while and said, "It's okay, I'll help you get these people in order first, and then I'll rush to see General Guan!" After speaking, he didn't wait for Pei Yuanshao to answer, and then he turned around and rushed back to the rear army, telling everyone to lay down their arms and surrender. Several Shi Chang and Wu Chang came up to question Qin Huai's decision, but they were killed by him on the spot! In this way, all the 3,000 rear troops who were regarded as abandoned sons by Yuan Tan surrendered. I don't know if Yuan Tan will be angry to death in the future.
After rectifying these horses, Pei Yuanshao could only camp here. At this time, Qin Huai thought about it for a while and stayed, he was afraid that after he left, these soldiers would make trouble again! So the two of them picked a flat land and commanded the three thousand soldiers to start building a large camp.
Not long after the camp was built, Guan Yu rushed here with a large group of men. Seeing the people around Pei Yuanshao, Guan Yu couldn't help but be stunned. This is Qin Huai hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "General Guan, his subordinates are people in the shadows, and they have important intelligence reports after returning from Yuan Tan this time!" Guan Yu nodded after listening, and then the two entered the big tent together.
This is Guan Yu saw that there were no outsiders, so he said: "Your Excellency's words!" What's the important thing to report? ”
Qin Huai took out a piece of silk cloth from his arms and handed it over, "General Guan, this is the distribution map of the troops in the cities of Youzhou drawn by his subordinates, general, please take a look." As he spoke, he flattened the silk cloth and said, "There are heavy soldiers guarding this Fanyang City, and it is really not easy to take it lightly. But in this right and north of the city, the defenders are much less. Therefore, his subordinates suggested that General Guan should not attack Fan Yang, but should be rerouted to take other cities! ”
Guan Yu looked at the picture carefully and said: "You are right, this time I have few soldiers, and I really can't attack Fan Yang." Is there really only 3,000 people stationed in Beiping? ”
"That's right, General Guan sent Yuan Tan to Bohai City this time, and specially transferred 5,000 men and horses from Youbeiping, and the troops outside were transferred from there." Qin Huai opened his mouth and replied.
Guan Yu stroked his long hair and nodded: "In that case, it's okay to take the right Beiping directly according to what you said!" Qin Huai was overjoyed when he saw that Guan Yu agreed to his suggestion. But in fact, Guan Yu never thought about fighting Fan Yang at all, since the beginning of the fight, Guan Yu planned to fight Youbeiping. Now with Qin Huai and these more than 3,000 Yuan army prisoners, it will be even easier to take the right Beiping.
So Guan Yu discussed with Qin Huai and asked him to take these soldiers to open the city gate, and then Guan Yu led the army into the city again! After hearing this, Qin Huai readily agreed, so he turned the day, and the army drove straight to Youbeiping. At this time, Yuan Tan, who rushed to Fanyang City, was relieved when he heard that Guan Yu's army had withdrawn, he was so relieved that he had been made by Guan Yu in the past two days, and now that Guan Yu was gone, he could also take a rest. As for Qin Huai, who took the initiative to stay that day, he had already forgotten all about it at this moment.
Not to mention Yuan Tan, besides, Guan Yu walked east with his men and horses, and came straight to Youbeiping City. Two days later, fifty miles away from the city, Guan Yu and Qin Huai separated. Qin Huai led people to go to the city gate first. Qin Huai really lived up to expectations, he successfully opened the city gate, and at this time, Guan Yu rushed up first. The defenders of the city were suddenly changed, and they were all taken prisoner when they resisted before they had time to resist. In this way, Guan Yu led the army to take the right Beiping City almost without blood!
