Chapter 16 Yan Liang survived the episode of the White Horse
As we all know, Yan Liang was beheaded by Guan Yu in Baima.
Now, Guan Yu, Liu Bei, and Zhang Fei are all staying in Jingzhou in a dignified manner, not appearing in Cao Ying, and not having any intersection with Cao Cao.
So, will Yan Liang be able to survive the episode of White Horse?
Yan Liang crossed the Yellow River smoothly with his soldiers and horses, and no one stopped him along the way.
He went straight to the White Horse Castle and began to siege the city. Liu Yan, the Taishou of Dongjun, had already sent people to Xudu for help when Yan Liang crossed the Yellow River. Now don't rush to lead people to stick to the city.
Baima is very close to Xu, the geographical location is very important, Cao Cao will never give up. Liu Yan is very sure of this.
First, Hanoi County was in an emergency, and Cao Cao sent Cao Ren to lead 20,000 troops across the Yellow River to support; Now I heard that Yan Liang led 50,000 troops to attack the white horse in Dongjun.
Cao Cao decided to personally lead his troops to rescue Liu Yan, the Taishou of Dongjun.
Faced with this situation, Cao Cao's advisor Xun Yu suggested that he lead his army to pretend to cross the river at Yanjin (now east of Ji County, Henan) and make a gesture of attacking the rear of Yuan's army, inducing Yuan Shao to divide his troops in Yanjin. Then, the light army rushed forward and attacked the white horse, attacking it unprepared.
Cao Cao followed his plan, and Yuan Shao really divided his troops to the west, sent Han Meng and led 30,000 troops to advance into Yanjin. But Yuan Shao's soldiers were many generals, and this bluffing strategy did not affect Yan Liang's soldiers and horses. Yan Liang still led his 50,000 horses to attack the city on Baima.
After Cao Cao mobilized a part of Yuan Shao's troops and horses, he took the opportunity to lead his troops from Yanjin to Baima. When he was more than ten miles away from the white horse, Yan Liang received the report of the scout, was shocked, and hurriedly met the battle.
Cao Cao sent Li Dian and Le Jin as the vanguard and led the first attack.
Le Jin took the lead, and met Yan Liang, who was immediately under the banner of the horizontal knife.
Lejin Marseille swims the dragon, the knife is like lightning. ran to Yan Liang and slashed straight over.
Yan Liang shouted loudly and came to greet him.
It's a pity that Le Jin is not Guan Yu, his lightning knife was actually blocked by Yan Liang!
Yan Liang also uses a knife, his knife is a little heavier than Lejin's knife, and the speed is a little faster!
So Lejin was tragic, and after less than twenty rounds, he was pressed and beaten by Yan Liang.
Li Dian followed from behind and saw that Le Jin was at a disadvantage. shouted: "Wen Qian, I'm here to help you!" ”
Carrying a big gun, he rushed forward and stabbed at Yan Liang.
And Le Jin didn't mean to retreat, and even fought Yan Liang with Li Dian.
Yan Liang shouted: "It's good to come!" ", not timid, let alone called, just a long knife to make the wind and rain impervious.
Yan Liang is one against two, and he does not fall behind at all.
The two sides fought for more than 100 rounds, and it turned out that Yan Liang was faintly victorious, and Li Dian and Le Jin were also invincible!
Cao Cao's subordinates began to use shameless siege tactics again, and Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan rushed forward to besiege Yan Liang together, which was to fight Yan Liang as Lu Bu.
Yan Liang's fists were invincible with eight hands, and he was defeated with a false sword.
Cao Cao ordered the army to rush and kill, and Yuan's army was defeated and scattered. Fortunately, Tian Feng was in the rear army, and ordered the crossbowmen to fire a volley and suppress the position! Only then did he repel Cao's army, catch Yan Liang, and retreat to the north of the Yellow River. The siege of the White Horse was lifted.
In this way, although Yan Liang was defeated, he survived the episode of White Horse.
After Cao Cao defeated Yan Liang, he returned to Yanjin to attack Han Meng and lead the move.
Han Meng and the force of the lead were originally inferior to Yan Liang; And Cao Jun also used shameless siege tactics, Cao Cao's generals rushed up, beating Han Meng and making him unable to parry, so he could only turn around and flee.
Cao Cao's army began to cover the rear again, and Yuan Shao's army also collapsed, with more than half of the casualties and prisoners accounted for it. Only about 10,000 soldiers remained, and they fled back to the north of the Yellow River with Han Meng.
Yuan Shao was furious when he learned the news of the defeat of the two-way army.
The trial persuaded him to recruit in person, and the trial said: "There are definitely more generals in our army than Cao Cao; But if it is still like now, only one or two generals are sent to lead the troops alone at a time, and it will not be able to withstand the siege of Cao Cao's several or more than a dozen generals. The result of using the refueling tactic is to be broken by Cao Cao separately! It's better for the lord to go in person and lead dozens of generals to confront Cao Cao! ”
Because at this time, other important strategists have already divided into several routes, following the leading general Yan Liangwen Chou and others to go out. So no one came to contradict the judge, so Yuan Shao didn't need to be indecisive. He ordered Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Jizhou to gather men and horses, and prepared to gather another 300,000 horses to conquer Cao Cao.
Gathering soldiers and horses and preparing grain and grass is not something that can be completed in a day or two, and it is estimated that it will be two months later when Yuan Shao officially sends out troops.
Comparatively, the road to the east is calm.
Jibei is relatively remote from Xudu, and Cao Cao's whip is out of reach, so he gave up the rescue first and went to toss casually.
Jibei country is named because it is in the north of Jishui. The seat of governance is in Lu County (near the immediate vicinity of Changqing, Shandong). 5 counties: Lu County, Chiping, Snake Hill, Gang County, Cheng County.
The current reigning king of Jibei is Liu Zheng, but the king of Jibei doesn't care about things, whoever occupies this territory can do it. The Han clan members have already broken their backbones, and no one dares to resist.
The prime minister of Jibei was once Bao Xin, but he was later killed by the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou.
The current minister of Jibei is a little-known scribe.
Most of the local governors and ministers under Cao Cao's current rule are scribes; Cao Cao concentrated all the generals in Xudu, so that it was easy to control the military power.
If no one is attacking his territory, it's perfect.
But, but, now, someone is coming to beat him.
So Hanoi County was quickly lost. Cao Ren went to the rescue, but he couldn't cross the Yellow River, but confronted Wen Chou and Zhang He across the Yellow River on the south side of the Yellow River.
The same is true of Jibei Kingdom, Gao Ran slowly encroached without hurry, and subdued the counties under the rule of Jibei Kingdom one by one. There is no hurry to attack Luxian and Xudu.
Gongsun Kang of Liaodong and they have been paying close attention to the battle situation between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.
The Battle of Guandu was the largest battle in the late Han Dynasty, and it was also the most wonderful battle.
Gongsun Kang didn't want to miss this classic, so he moved the military headquarters to Qingzhou. At the same time, the lurking scouts in Yanzhou and Jizhou were instructed to fly pigeons every day to report the latest battle situation!
Liaodong was going to eat melons and watch the rhythm of the whole process, and he was so anxious that he wanted to say goodbye and leave, but he was warmly retained by Gongsun Kang.
Gongsun Kang said to him frankly: "With your character, after you go back, you will say some unpleasant words to Yuan Benchu, and you will be imprisoned by him." There is even a fear for his life. ”
He understands this, but he is a die-hard character. He said: "Even if I am broken, I will go back to help my father-in-law." ”
