Chapter 730: Jizhou Rebellion
Ye Chen was still waiting for a reply, but after two days' work, Gao Shun, who came from Yanjin Water Village, took 3,000 people and horses to directly follow the exploration horses left by Ye Chen, and tracked them all the way to the periphery of Wu'an, before joining Ye Chen.
Gao Shun has been five days away from Yanjin Shuizhai at this time, and he can often kill Yuan Shao's reconnaissance team nearby, and the soldiers and horses have been stationed in Yuan Shao's territory for many days, Gao Shun was afraid that Yuan Shao would find out, so he asked worriedly.
"Li Yang probably already knows that your army is nearby, so I'm afraid I'm going to attack, so what should I do?"
Huang Zhong was also worried and hurried, and the daily horse exploration was repeated, and Li Ren was in Yanjin Water Village, and he suppressed many Yuan Jun who wanted to move, after all, many of their families were in Jizhou. Seeing that Ye Chen's troops are gradually weakening, he will definitely take action, and he is alone in the hinterland of the enemy thousands of miles away, what could be more dangerous than this.
"Lord, what Shu Ye said is that if you don't have this Xun Chen, let someone else take it."
Huang Zhong looked anxious in his heart, for himself, Ye Chen had the grace to save his life, and he naturally would not treat Ye Chen like others.
Moreover, when Huang Zhong was in Jingzhou, he was suppressed for a long time by Huang Zu, who was jealous of his ability, and he was just a tooth general in the army, and not long after he came out to mix with Ye Chen, he was canonized as the general of the Protector Army, which is a certificate that he can be in charge of an army alone.
The blood-stained robe is just for a good fame that can be mixed, which is not available in Jingzhou, and others will not have it.
"Two generals, don't worry, I think when my 50,000 troops left Liaodong, I beat Yuan Shao's army of 300,000 to meet his opponent, and also severely damaged his army, don't care about these at all. Besides, back then, I had a few thousand Liaodong troops, and I dared to compete with more than 100,000 Saibei Hu cavalry. ”
What Ye Chen said was loud, but only Ye Chen himself knew that this time was different from the past, where it was so easy to find a bargain in the enemy's hinterland. However, as the commander of the first army, if he has no confidence, then his subordinates will be even more miserable?
The army paraded outside Wu'an for a while, and did not even meet a decent army. It seems that Yuan Shao's army that went to the north to rescue should have evacuated the nearby troops, otherwise it would not be like this.
Such a large army is much more comfortable, except for Huang Zhong personally leading his men and horses to clear out the Yuan Shao reconnaissance team within twenty miles of the vicinity, there is no big battle to fight.
Ma Yan was lucky, after harassing Dong'e Port that night, on the way back to the army, he took advantage of the unpreparedness of the accompanying Liaodong army and jumped directly into the turbulent waters of the Yellow River.
I couldn't tell the direction in the dark night, and the water of the Yellow River was turbulent, so I was washed directly down the river to Qingzhou, which was 300 miles away, until I reached the Jishui River, and I barely relied on my water nature to rush to the riverbank near Licheng, and immediately discarded my armor, dressed up as a common man, and fled to Gaotang in embarrassment to report the news.
After Wow Yuanjin and Jiang Qi were attacked by fire at night, they immediately retreated to their respective defense areas, and the two armies were less than 10,000 people, especially Jiang Qi's elite losses from Yecheng were even more serious. Jiang Qi returned to Yecheng, and was about to tell Yuan Shao how to return to the Black Mountain Army, but he saw that there were no officers and soldiers in Yecheng, and only a few elders in the square were maintaining order in the city.
When someone asked, he learned that Ye Chen had attacked Yecheng a few days ago and rescued the Zhen family who was in prison, and the treasury was copied by Ye Chen like a family.
Moreover, the former Yecheng Governor Shi Xianbei and other important ministers and generals all went to Zhangwu with Yuan Shao, leaving only himself and Chen Zhen in charge of the state and county, although Chen Zhen was not captured by Yuan Shao, but ran away without a trace.
Left and right asked.
"General, if you didn't expect Ye Chen to sneak attack Yecheng, do you want to inform the lord now."
Jiang Qi was anxious in his heart, knowing that the man who attacked him must be Ye Chen, the last time Ye Chen attacked Jizhou, he had fought with his Liaodong army, and his strength was amazing.
"We have few soldiers, going out to find Ye Chen is looking for death, or hurry up and take precautions, since we are in the plan, as long as we don't let Ye Chen occupy Yecheng anymore, it is already a great achievement, and now the most important thing is to spread the news to the lord, and then report the news to the lord, presumably the lord can understand."
This time, he actually raided Yecheng, which meant that Ye Chen was near Yecheng, which frightened him to close the city gate, light a beacon fire, and send messengers to spread the word in all directions. The Yuan family was guarding generals in various places on the southern front, only to know that the rear was personally harassed by Ye Chen's troops, and the so-called three-way army in the north was probably a bluff, so they followed suit, closed the city gate, and lit the beacon fire.
Li Ren guarded the port of Yanjin for three days, killing more than 100 soldiers who wanted to pass the message, after all, after the lord arranged for these horses, there were less than 3,000 people here, and there was a lack of troops, and there would be danger if they went down, Li Ren continued to send scouts to Pingqiu and Liyang direction, strange and there was no movement, but a few messengers came from Liyang Baima Gaotang to pass the message, and they have been taken.
Li Ren knew that as long as these messengers did not return, they would be able to make those guards judge that Yanjin had been lost, and Pingqiu had no troops to control it, so the loss of Yanjin must have spread throughout Yuan Shao's army.
Chen Zhen did not catch up with Yuan Shao who was marching until three days after the loss of Yecheng, and as soon as the report of the loss of Yecheng was completed, the messenger sent by Jiang Qi had already arrived.
"What do you say! Ye Chen attacked Yecheng. ”
Yuan Shao listened to the report of his subordinates, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day.
Yecheng was attacked by Ye Chen once.
Isn't it a joke now, attacked again?
", Ye Chen, I'm going to tear you alive." After confirming the information, Yuan Shao yelled.
Simply no important officials were captured this time, otherwise he would have to spend a lot of money to go out.
Yuan Shao almost fainted.
His most important city has been breached twice, so it's no wonder that he can't be angry.
"Bang Bang Bang"
"Crackling"
The more Yuan Shao thought about it, the more angry he became, swept away all the things on the table, and said angrily: "Immediately raise the account, I want to tear him apart." ”
Yuan Shao raised the military tent, summoned all the strategists and generals to discuss with the generals, and said angrily.
"This time, I fell for the trick of Shang Jiazi, and now I have been taken by this Shang Jiazi, and then I don't know where I am, if Ye Chen, this kid, dares to come out in person, I will definitely kill him in front of the battle."
Although even Yuan Shao himself was not confident in these tough words, but when he expressed his position, the generals did not dare to boast about Haikou, the soldiers were not sharp enough to the other party, and the combat strength was insufficient for the other party, and this battle was intended to be won by relying on more men and horses.
At this time, he suddenly said.
"Don't worry, my lord, in recent days, I have seen the tactics practiced by the Euphorbia, the elite of the absolute elite, and there is a messenger to report, I don't know Ye Chen's traces, it means that he sneaked up thousands of miles to attack Yecheng, it was for the Zhen family, if the expectations are good, then they must be marching from the waterway, not the army, it is estimated that they should have retreated at this time."
In this way, it made the strategists embarrassed, and when he was in the army, he once said that he would transfer the Liyang cavalry to the Yue cavalry general Han Meng, and let him join forces with 30,000 cavalry and parade the southern line to prevent Cao Cao from cooperating with Ye Chen to take the opportunity to attack.
However, all the strategists in the camp objected, although Guo Tu was still not cured at this time, but because of his meritorious work in recovering the property of the Zhen family, he was a popular person in Yuan Shao's army at the moment, and he was the one who opposed the allocation of soldiers and horses to Han Meng at the beginning.
At this time, I was ashamed, but in order to cover up my mistakes, I spoke.
"Why don't you let Han Meng lead the headquarters and go to Ye Chen now?"
Yuan Shaozheng couldn't make up his mind, but Xin Ping said.
"It's not good, Ye Chen is a cunning person, Han Junlie is brave and brave, but the strategy is insufficient, so let him return to Liyang, and wait for the lord to return to the army, and then make other plans."
For a while, in the military tent, some people seconded it.
Yuan Shao was indecisive, and when he heard everyone's words, he was about to agree, but he said in frustration.
"Isn't it a pity that the lord doesn't take the treasure and goes back?"
