Chapter 360, Gongsun Zhan's faint move
In less than half an hour, not only was the battle over, but even the corpses were cleaned up.
Chen Gong looked back at the giant ladder that had only been built in a hurry last night, and he couldn't calm down for a long time, he couldn't imagine that this thing could be so powerful, it was really incredible.
While thinking about it, Zhao Yun had already ordered the ladder to be set on fire, and told his subordinates that no one was allowed to divulge the matter.
If others follow suit, when the time comes, Luoyang, which Zhao Yun guards, will not be impregnable.
Chen Gong nodded, Zhao Yun acted cautiously, thoughtfully, and every move was well thought out, it was really a world of difference from Lu Bu, who was simple-minded and only knew how to fight blindly, for some reason, Chen Gong would always involuntarily put the two together for comparison.
After taking Yanmen Pass, Zhao Yun gathered everyone together, and said with a serious expression, "The soldiers are fast, I decided to send troops to Yijing immediately." ”
Chen Gong agreed, "What the lord said is extremely true, while the senior cadres don't know that we have seized the Yanmen Pass, Yuan Shao is not guarded, the lord should decisively march into Yijing, and besides, Yi Jing's actions are unpredictable, and if it is late, it will change, if it is set on fire by Yuan Shao, I am afraid that millions of grain will be turned into ashes." ”
Everyone nodded in agreement, and Zhang Liao suddenly interjected, "Lord, there is so much food, even if we can grab it, how can we safely transport it out of Yijing?" ”
Zhao Yun smiled mysteriously, obviously already in his chest, "On this way, although we have been hurrying for days and hard, we have hardly stopped, but along the way, I have ordered people to send orders to the Xiongnu departments, let them select strong mules and horses and vehicles to come, Tian Chou also took the first step to Youzhou, contact Liu Yu's old department, these people will pick up our food security when the time comes." ”
Chen Gong had already guessed that Zhao Yun had never been reckless and impulsive in doing things, and he must have thought about how to transport such an astonishing amount of grain before sending out the troops.
Three million Hu, this is simply an astronomical number.
Zhao Yun's expression was serious and solemn, and he said, "If I can really grab all the grain, I won't take all the grain away, after all, all this grain was scavenged and stripped by Gongsun Zan from the people of Youzhou." ”
Everyone praised in unison, and Zhao Yun waved his hand, "To make a long story short, everyone doesn't need to praise me, this is what I should do, and there is one more thing that must be explained." ”
Chen Gong's eyes lit up, and he guessed what Zhao Yun was going to say next.
Sure enough, Zhao Yun pointed to the Yanmen Pass at his feet, "Our army made a detour to the north and raided Yijing for thousands of miles, no matter what success or failure, Yanmen Pass cannot afford to lose." ”
Zhao Yun paused deliberately, and his gaze swept over everyone's faces one by one, "I don't know who is willing to take the order and guard here?" ”
As soon as Zhao Yun's words fell, Lu Bu flashed out of the ranks, clenched his fists and handed it over, "Leave it to me." ”
Zhao Yun glanced at him a few times, and felt quite relieved in his heart, Lu Bu was eager to perform, and his fighting spirit was high, which was a good thing, but Zhao Yun was still a little worried in his heart, after all, Lu Bu was not calm enough, and simply left him here, Zhao Yun was inevitably uneasy.
The position of Yanmen Pass is very important, and there is no room for mistakes, once it is recaptured by Yuan Bing, it is equivalent to cutting off Zhao Yun's way back.
Gao Shun glanced at Lu Bu and took a step forward, "Let me stay with me." ”
Although Lu Bu was full of ugliness outside the White Gate Tower, he lost face and broke everyone's hearts, but the matter has passed, Gao Shun has followed him for so long, he has always been loyal, he has long forgiven Lu Bu.
"Okay."
Zhao Yun nodded, stepped forward to Gao Shun and Lu Bu, reached out and patted them lightly on the shoulders twice, and then held the hands of the two and let their hands hold together, "After I leave, you two must work together, sometimes discuss more, don't be impulsive, I don't have many soldiers and horses around me, I can only set up two thousand people for you, no problem, right?" ”
Zhao Yun looked at the two of them, with both expectation and trust in his eyes, and also intended to provoke the two with words.
"Unless I die, Yanmen Pass will never be lost." Lu Bu clenched his fists and replied generously.
Gao Shun's expression was resolute, this iron-like man had never said much, he just nodded heavily, but Zhao Yun was already relieved.
Zhao Yun brought a total of 5,000 people with him on this trip, and the casualties were almost negligible in this battle to capture Yanmen Pass, and hundreds of surrendered troops were also recruited.
The pressure on Lu Bu and Gao Shun was definitely not small, first, their strength was only 2,000, and second, there was nothing to defend the city except for those rusty arrows.
After some serious advice, before dawn, Zhao Yun took people away.
……
Although Yi Jinglou is impregnable, but as Yuan's army grows more and more, and the onslaught day and night continues, Gongsun Chan is also panicked, otherwise he would not have sent his son Gongsun Xu to ask Zhang Yan for help.
Gongsun Zhan's subordinates were also anxious like ants on a hot pot.
In anxious anticipation, he finally waited for his son's reply, and Zhang Yanqi's army of 100,000 troops would arrive outside the city in a few days.
Gongsun Zhan was overjoyed, and before Zhang Yan arrived, he wrote a letter to his son as clever, the main content of the letter was to let his son lead the troops to ambush in the north of the city, and make an appointment to raise a fire at the appointed time.
Although this plan is a bit risky, as long as you act carefully, you can also catch Yuan Shao off guard, Gongsun Zan has a strong nature, and wants to shake his majesty before Zhang Yan arrives, as if to say, "Don't look at me being trapped by Yuan Shao, ask you for help, but I have not been forced to the end of the road, and I can still let Yuan Shao plant a big heel in my hands." ”
The idea was very good, and the plan was feasible, but Gongsun Zhan never dreamed that as soon as the messenger left the city, he was caught by Yuan Shao's soldiers.
Guo Tule happily took the seized letter to see Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao read the letter and couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Hmph, Gongsun Zhan, your death is not far away, this time I want to see who ambushed whom." ”
Yuan Shao planned and let Zhang Hechun Yu Qiong guard against Gongsun Xu, and Yan Liangwen Chou raised a fire in a depression in the north of the city to lure the snake out of the hole.
After Gongsun Chan got the news, he was overjoyed and personally led thousands of elite soldiers out of the city gate.
As a result, not long after leaving the city, there was a loud sound of killing all around, and Yan Liangwen Chou led people to surround the front and back, and in an instant, he besieged Gongsun Zhan's men and horses.
Gongsun Chan woke up suddenly, and hurriedly turned around and broke through.
Yan Liangwen and Chou are all first-class brave generals in the world, one wields a knife, the other dances a spear, leading people to intercept before and after, the momentum is like a violent wind, and the soldiers who killed Gongsun Zhan are turned on their backs, and the casualties are unbearable.
There will be no fighting spirit, the army will not have fighting spirit, even if it is a good soldier, the result is already doomed.
Gongsun Zhan danced the golden nail jujube yang lance, rushing back with his life, looking like a desperate posture, and the dead bodies of Yuan Bing fell a lot where he passed, but he was trying to escape for his life, and the soldiers behind him were also rushing to escape, messy like a mess.
