When it was nearly dusk, there were fires burning sporadically on the battlefield, smoke dancing wildly in the wind, the corpses of horses and people spread out on the blood-colored battlefield of about 1,500 paces, the corpses were all over the field, the wails and cries of people, the weak and sorrowful screams of horses resounded in the sky from time to time, and the white clouds like cotton wool turned lead at some point, covering half of the sky, and the surface was red by the sun, and they were surging to the east with the wind. Heaven and earth are desolate and cold, like Shura hell.

On the watchtower at the east gate of the camp, Gongsun Zhan and Yang Feng looked at the battlefield to the east and talked, "Cleared?" I only rescued nearly 400 people, I know that it will not be easy to save it, since you persuade me, I also have to persuade you, if you win this battle, it will only be more difficult in the future, and the food will start to save a little to eat, and you can't take it lightly. In addition, the rescued people must let the military doctor check the injuries and physical condition, and get along for a few days to find out what they can believe for the time being, and don't let them come into contact with too important things for the time being."

Yang Feng nodded in response, the face that was illuminated crimson by dusk occasionally smiled and said a few words, his eyes looked at the battlefield from time to time, and when he looked back at Gongsun Zhan, the depths of his eyes flashed with extremely admiring colors, and at a certain moment, a loud roar came from the east, "Gongsun Pifu!" You wait, a certain family will pay you with blood! ”

At this time, the wind was strong, but the voice was not faint, and the tone was extremely sad and indignant, Gongsun Zhan raised his eyebrows and looked over, looking at the outline of the cavalry phalanx in the east, which was about only one or two thousand after withdrawing most of the people, thought about it, and shouted: "Who should I be, Wuyan!" You're not dead yet? What an eye-opener! I'm relieved when you come, I'm sure I'll keep winning! However, you have said that you have paid off your blood debts for many years, and you have been defeated repeatedly, I am tired of hearing it! Or to put it another way? Say something I like to hear, and maybe you'll win once! ”

As soon as the words fell, Gongsun Chan shouted into the camp, "Laugh at me!" The camp burst into laughter.

Over there, Wuyan probably lost and lost, and after a few breaths, he took the cavalry and began to retreat to the Wuhuan camp ten miles away, Gongsun Zhan raised his hand and pressed it, feeling that the camp was a lot quieter with a wave of his hand, looking at the quiet Fuyang City in the north, and said with a smile: "It seems that there is a bed crossbow deterrence, Wuyan will not clean up the battlefield here, let people go out and have a look." Remember to be careful. By the way, it is the Wuhuan people, and those who can be saved can also be saved. ”

Yang Feng looked at the camp tent of the Yellow Turban Army that had been rescued and settled down, and hesitated for a moment, but at this time, it could be said that Gongsun Zhan had the most prestige, so he didn't ask more, nodded and went down, climbed halfway, and suddenly turned around and gave a thumbs up and said something, with a look of awe.

Gongsun Zan naturally knew that Yang Feng should have understood his intentions, smiled and waved his hand, and then looked at Fuyang City, watching the heads of the city flickering, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

The battle went well.

When the fire was ignited and stretched for more than a thousand feet, the 2,000 Wuhuan cavalry were in chaos with the resistance of the Yellow Turban Army, and then under the camp troops, they also besieged those people in the encirclement and exterminated them.

On the other side, the two groups of horses, each numbering about 1,000 horses, also stopped the two Wuhuan cavalry composed of 5,000 people as they wished, and it is not clear how many of those 10,000 people died, but it can be estimated that those cavalry had charged so quickly before, and under the chaos, the casualties must have been more than 2,000.

As for the 2,000 men sent out from the west, although they were all cavalry, in fact, 1,000 men were also carrying shields, and 1,000 were armed with crossbows, and the order was to dismount and form a formation before approaching the 3,000 Wuhuan cavalry, and defend against the enemy with crossbows. Because of this, the 2,000 people suffered the least losses, and with their unskilled crossbow shooting skills, they repelled several charges of the 3,000 Wuhuan cavalry, and then left behind more than 100 corpses, but they also caused most of the Wuhuan cavalry to be killed and wounded, and they collapsed and fled.

In general, their casualties in this battle were about 1,000 people, of which about 400 were still not dead, and at such a price, they still rescued nearly 400 Yellow Turban troops under the butcher's knife of the Wuhuan people, and also let the Wuhuan army lose at least 5,000 fresh troops, and let at least 30,000 Wuhuan troops temporarily retreat in order to rectify the people, which has to be said to be a rather brilliant record.

However, in fact, Gongsun Chan also knows that there are many elements of luck in this battle.

If, when he began to create a barrier with his gun carriage and bed crossbow, he changed to a more cautious man, ignoring the taunts and insults on their side, and withstood the humiliation, if when the lime was raised, the ten thousand Wuhuan cavalry immediately slowed down, or turned away, if the horses that fell were not so few, or if the horses were not dragged forward after falling, but tripped all the other horses by ropes, if Otsu took advantage of the emptiness of the camp and opened the gates and struck

Fortunately, there were no ifs, none of this happened, and they won after all.

Among them, it is particularly worth mentioning that the four soldiers who drove on the two chariots and sprinkled lime were all good at acrobatics, and this time they were burdened with heavy responsibilities, but they were also in danger, in the midst of such thousands of troops, they actually escaped from the chaotic circle through the crawling rope and horse skills when the two sides were about to collide, even if someone broke his leg and was seriously injured, but it was a fact that he cut the rope and fled back from the horse, which was really incredible, surprising and happy.

Of course, this battle is over after all, and as the commander at this time, Gongsun Chan will not lose his mind because of a big victory.

He thought about Wuyan's personality and way of leading the troops, the number of Yellow Turban Army prisoners that might exist in the camp opposite, and the intention of Wei Dun to let the Wuhuan people in this closed door, and finally, a shadow slowly cast on his heart.

And this shadow, when night approached, was finally further expanded.

In the Wuhuan camp, thousands of cavalry poured out, and began to wander around a radius of about five miles around Fuyang City, as if they were planning to besiege the city.

At the same time, 1,200 steps away from the west gate of the camp, upstream of the water, there were cries for help one after another, and soon after, the Wuhuan people roared neatly down the wind, "Gongsun Zhan! If you don't surrender, I'll kill a hundred yellow turbans! 戌正不降! I'll kill another hundred! If you don't surrender, I'll kill another hundred! If you don't come down! Let's let these 800 miles of water be full of the blood of the Yellow Turban Dog Thief! ”

Gongsun Zhan's hand holding the porcelain bowl shook, the warm corn soup in his mouth was difficult to swallow, he looked at the camp that was loud and full of righteous indignation, and then looked at Fuyang City, and then swept from Fuyang City to the northeast, to the east, and to the southeast

Then, the wind became stronger and stronger, and the wind clung to the dark clouds and spread wildly, and it rained, and lightning and thunder roared in Fuyang City.

The heavy rain was afraid of hitting the camp tent, Gongsun Zhan stood at the door of the tent, listening to the shouting gradually subsided, and breathed a sigh of relief, but he also swept around Yang Feng and other Black Mountain Army generals who stopped outside his camp tent in the rain with a pale face, as well as several big men who were said to be the leaders of the Yellow Turban Army.

He glanced around, thought for a moment, and then shouted loudly, "Five days! Everybody give a certain family five days! Within five days, if no one comes to help, we will break through! At that time, integrate the centaurs and slaughter their entire clan! ”

After speaking, he turned his back to look at Jixian County, which was marked on the map spread out on the shelves in the tent.

Deran, Xun Wenruo, if you don't die, even if you are injured, hurry up and lead people to break through the gate of Jixian County and Juyong Pass, if you can't even break through these three levels, a certain family will have to give up cooperating with you

Well, if I don't die this time, I will take advantage of the situation to destroy the entire Wuhuan clan! This is not a good thing!

He thought, his eyes lit up, "Captain Yang, gather all the Wuhuan people who have been rescued for me, and if you are willing to persuade Wuyan to give up killing the captives, you will be entertained." The rest of the people, send someone to watch them, and ask them to collect the corpses outside the east gate for me at night, and let the broken bed crossbow and gun carriage be repaired for me overnight, otherwise they will be dealt with by military law! Oh, my military law is a dead end. ”

"How can this be true? How the fuck do you discipline your subordinates! ”

In the dimly lit main hall of the Taishou Mansion in Fuyang City, the figure of Wei Dun was revealed in a flash of thunder, and his big hand slapped the case, and the utensils and bamboo slips on it were framed, and he looked at the man who had just been invited over after the meal, and scolded, "Kill the prisoner?!" Lao Tzu is still here! Those people out there are brutes! Will you use your brain? I don't want you to live here! Even Lao Tzu was implicated, do you know! ”

Badun hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down, "The forgiveness of the prince is really a big defeat today, so Wu Yan is desperate to take risks."

"I'm not here to hear you say this! I'll just ask you what to do! Before, you let your people in, you were asked to send them back to warn those guys not to come nonsense! You're still fucking not letting them go back? Do you want to keep them here for the New Year? Lao Tzu killed the people of the whole city, oh Han people! Kill all the Han people and give them to you as food and grass? Satisfied? ”

"The prince of the mansion is angry, and a certain family also wants them to leave as soon as possible, but they say that since the monarch of the mansion can open the city gate, why can't he let me and all my brothers leave together"

"Oh, they? You're thinking about it, aren't you? Well, let me tell you, the whole city is crazy now! Say that I am a traitor to seek glory and flatter you! You're gone, I don't have to be too fucking guarded! Yes! The thunderstorm was loud, and Tail Dun roared, his voice was cold, "Badun, I treat you as a friend and a brother, you are doing this to harm me, right?" ”

Badun hurriedly leaned over and kowtowed, lying on the ground, "Mansion Jun Mingjian, a certain family has no such heart!" A certain family also said the same, and they also felt that they would stay and act as a proton, so as not to be in a dilemma and be victimized by the villain. But they said, "Since I want to stay, it is better to let five or six thousand people go." After that, when they go out, they will definitely help the prince disperse Gongsun Zhan's men and horses outside the city, and it will be better to frustrate Yang Tai."

Wei Dun snorted coldly, "Badun, do you really not know or are you pretending to be crazy and stupid in front of me?" ”

"Why did the prince say this?"

"I've told the dog what I just said, haven't I?"

Wei Dun slapped the case again, and shouted: "Now I only have 10,000 county soldiers in the city, and there are still white horses in the city, and the number is unknown, if most of your more than 7,000 people leave, Lao Tzu's statement of betraying the country to seek glory is not true?" When I am discredited, how can I suppress the white horse and the blind people? Even those 10,000 soldiers may not listen to me! ”

He paused and snorted coldly: "Besides, there is a white horse here, haven't you figured it out yet?" Gongsun Chan would have let you go and chased you again, do you really think Zhang Mancheng is valuable in his eyes? It's just that you're using you to lure out more Wuhuan people. Now that the Wuhuan army is here, how much use do you think you have? ”

The tone became a little sarcastic, "Still stay as a proton, let half of the people go back to capture the thief and capture the king, do you think that the group of white horses in the city will watch Gongsun Chan trapped outside the city?" If you let half of the people go, aren't you just giving people a chance to take advantage of the situation? ”

Badon looked up and took a long breath.

"I don't understand, you either die, you will be captured, or you can stay here and help me stabilize the situation in Fuyang. Of those three paths, do you have to choose the other two paths that embarrass me? Do you really think that Tail is so easy to bully? ”

"A certain family deserves death! This is for the people outside to tell them to get out of town immediately! ”

"Notify the fart! The city gate can't be opened at night, and those horsemen on white horses, who knows if they will take advantage of the night to make trouble and open the city gate, so heavy rain, the county soldiers who are not at the city gate may not know that it is my people who go out, not the people on your side because of suspicion that something happened at that time, you are responsible? Why are you so stupid all of a sudden! ”

Wei Dun scolded angrily, and then called the housekeeper to go to the lamp to light it, and said in a deep voice: "The rain is heavy, I estimate that your people are in a hurry to make this trip, and they will rest tonight, and they will not threaten the lives of the Yellow Turban Army, and the hearts of the people in the city can still be appeased." But, I'll tell you the truth, I'll hold on to this for two or three days at most. The few people who entered the city, when the fourth watch was tomorrow, left as soon as everyone was asleep. You'd better let the Wuhuan people outside deal with the matter in the past two days, otherwise, it will be difficult for me to explain to the people. ”

"If you go out of the city tomorrow, it will be two days?" The butler lit the lamp, revealing a solemn expression, "Fujun, if you really have to wait, I'm afraid that you will have to kill Gongsun Zan until they defeat Gongsun Zhan." In this way, you can show that you are diligent in government and love the people, and sympathetic to the people and my people. I can leave with peace of mind, otherwise, Fuyang is only afraid that the city will be banned forever."

"Can't get it in two days?"

"If it is as you expected, the Yellow Turban Army that was defeated in the three counties of Youbeiping, Yuyang, and Guangyang will definitely be killed, but it is hard to say."

"When your people told you on the city tower, I heard that Yuyang is guarded by Wang Song's 50,000 horses, and they will help you stabilize the back road. Gongsun Du has clearly colluded with you, and I don't believe he is here to stop you. That is to say, there are still your 100,000 troops and Wang Song's 10,000 horses and 110,000 horses outside Guangyang and my Fuyang City, and you told me that you can't take Gongsun Zhan's 10,000 people? You're all papier-mâché, huh? Or is the Yellow Turban Army so powerful now? 110,000 of you want to leave, but you can't leave? ”

"Naturally, you can go!"

The lights were bright and dark in the wind that was blowing in, and he nodded his head with a resolute expression.

He can understand that Wei Dun is under a lot of pressure in the gossip, and it is not easy to keep these people, if it takes a long time, it is really possible to cause those white horses in Fuyang City to take the city from the people of Fuyang as he said, and when the time comes, I am afraid that more than 7,000 of them will have to be left here.

Therefore, the Wuhuan Department of Shanggu in Guangning and Ning County could only give up, and it was important to save their lives for the sake of today's plan. And being able to kill Gongsun Chan is not a bad thing. It's a big deal to gather people and horses to kill Jixian County and kill Liu Zheng's house

Thinking of this, he snorted coldly in his heart, "Liu Zhengpifu, do you think that a mere yellow turban black mountain can make things happen?" This time, a certain family wiped out your entire army, and you were all slaves and prostitutes! ”

"It's good if you can go, that's it"

"However, my lord, it will take at least five days for the army to assemble, plus rest, and then besiege and kill Gongsun Zhan's 10,000 people in one go. Please also sir."

Wei Dun frowned, and after a while, he waved his hand and said impatiently: "Okay, I'll help you stabilize it." But it can't be delayed any longer. I'd better if you gather everyone here and settle the matter at once, so as not to cause trouble, and let me stay here for a few more days, it's not impossible. You can ask your people to tell Wang Song that his people can enter the city, and let him help me when the time comes, with him, Yuyang, who is too guarded, and his people in charge, I may be able to hold out here for a few more days. ”

"The prince of the house is like this for a certain family, and a certain family has nothing to reciprocate, he will definitely restrain his subordinates in the future, and he will never violate the upper valley boundary! Naturally, if possible, we also hope that the prince of the mansion can accept us, so that I can feel the shade of the descendants of the prince of the mansion in the upper valley for the rest of my life. ”

Wei Dun raised his eyebrows, the corners of his mouth smiled, but his words were serious, "Don't talk nonsense." Wei is loyal to the Ming Gong and the Han Dynasty, where is there such a rebellious heart. ”

Ton's eyes lit up, "Yes, it was a certain family that was reckless, so a certain family sent someone over to greet Aropan and asked him to wait outside the door, and when the time came, a certain family asked him to go out with the people of the king?" ”

"Well, you can call him over, but you should go back, and when you go out, your face is a little ugly, so as not to make people think that I am entertaining you."

Behind the screen, Zhang Yi and Zhang Zan flashed out, knelt down beside Wei Dun, their faces were a little suspicious, and they saw Wei Dun grinning, clapping his hands and saying, "Okay, everything that should be said has been said." Inform Wen Ze and Yan Gang, you can let him gather people in the next two days, and wait for my orders. ”

He said, gritting his teeth, "Damn, I'm angry when I think about it, Gongsun Zhan's husband, I didn't tell the truth before I left yesterday, the Yellow Turban, Montenegro and Baima Yi are full of 30,000 people, if it weren't for Xun Wenruo being sensible, let the Yellow Turban Black Mountain not move, and have the intention of controlling the overall situation, I am afraid that my 20,000 county soldiers will not be able to control the situation." ”

"Fujun, these 110,000 people, is more than half of them attacking vigorously, will Gongsun Zhan" Zhang Yi hesitated, Wei Dun waved his hand, stood up, stretched his muscles, and let out a long breath and said: "I just want him to be used as bait to let the whole thing have an argument." ”

Seeing Zhang Yi and Zhang Zhan's hesitant faces, Wei Dun sat down with a smile and patted the shoulders of the two, "It's okay, I'm just pushing the boat with the water, Gongsun Chan himself must also know that no matter how much time there is, the greater the variables, and the fate of those Yellow Turban righteous warriors today Gongsun Chan is hard-hearted, but those Black Mountain troops under him are not really soldiers who only listen to military law, and under the wavering of the army's heart, it can't drag on for a few days Well, defending for five days, day and night, should be the limit for him." ”

Speaking of this, Wei Dun's face was slightly confused, he looked at the positive letters that had been practiced on the table for a while, and sighed: "Shibei should be impressed for three days, in the past, we still felt that he Liu Deran was resentful, and I never thought that the Yellow Turban Army and the Black Mountain Army could act like this, Liu Deran and Xun Wenruo were stable, and they really had some ability." ”

Hearing that another official was visiting outside the door, Tail came back to his senses and glanced at the two of them, "Let's all go back, just do what I said before." Don't worry, I'll take care of it. Haha, you don't like to hear it, I'm still waiting to go to the major cities to recruit people and horses to recruit the Wuhuan Department of Shanggu to come over, prepare for activities and activities, and strengthen the majesty of the lord, why can't they stay here. An eyesore, you know? ”

Also when a storm in Fuyang City continued to ferment in the thunderstorm, in a small village and a house near the official road from Jixian County to Changping, Liu Zheng sneezed a few times in a row, looked at Dyed Lotus who was busy boiling medicine and cooking vegetables under the shed outside the house, pulled down the mask and rubbed his nose, and said impatiently to Xun Yu on the side: "Is Pinghan coming?" ”
