Chapter 234: Gongsun Zhan's Lair

After Gongsun Chan and others retreated, Liu He immediately ordered the whole army to pursue and kill, and the coalition army that killed Gongsun Chan lost his armor and shed blood, and finally after statistics, although this battle did not kill or capture any of Gongsun Zhan, Gongsun Kang and Murong Yu, it achieved very impressive results, beheading more than 10,000 people, capturing thousands of people, seizing countless equipment, grain and grass, armor, and capturing 10,000 horses, enough to establish a cavalry team of thousands of people.

This time Liu He has been chasing and killing to a hundred miles away Wuzhong County before stopping, along the road Hunu, Pinggu, Wuzhong three counties have opened the city to surrender, in fact, Wuzhong County already belongs to the territory of Youbeiping, before Gongsun Zan after defeating Liu Yu, he sent people to take over the defense here, and even in order to establish the rule here, he did not hesitate to contact the Murong clan of Xianbei in Liaoxi, and asked Murong to help him send troops to suppress the forces that were originally loyal to Liu Yu at the cost of sending the entire Liaoxi County to Murong Clan, However, even those county magistrates and county commanders appointed by Gongsun Chan were dissatisfied with Gongsun Chan's policy of rampant expropriation, and they did not dare to resist when Gongsun Chan sent elite soldiers to garrison them, but now that Gongsun Chan was defeated and retreated, and Liu He fought back, they naturally did not hesitate at all, and immediately ordered Kaecheng to surrender.

Liu He's army was stationed in Wuzhong County, and he sent people to escort Pang Tong back to Quanzhou County, and then ordered Xu Huang to lead the army to rendezvous.

The next day, Xu Huang led the army to Wuzhong County, Liu He made some arrangements for Xu Huang, and ordered Xu Huang to lead the army out of Lulongsai, cross the Xianbei Department under the guidance of Tian Chou, and then arrive in Liucheng, occupy Zhiyangle of Liaoxi County, cut off the connection between Xianbei and Xianbei headquarters in Liaoxi and Gongsun Du in Liaodong, and then immediately fortified there, defended carefully, and waited for his order to arrive, and immediately cooperate with Liu He to attack Liaodong County.

"Generals, now that Xu Huang has rushed to Lu Longsai, it is time for us to carry out operations, for the capture of Liaoxi and Liaodong, I have already made arrangements in advance, but at the moment our biggest task is to capture Gongsun Zhan's lair, Tuyin City, as long as this city is broken, Gongsun Chan has no way out, and our war will be half won."

After that, Liu He did not stay, and immediately led the army to go out after raising all the grain and grass.

However, this road is not as smooth as before, even with Li Ping, who is good at opening the road, as the vanguard, this road has encountered a lot of obstacles, or the pontoon bridge has been demolished, or the river has been widened, or the traffic arteries are full of thorns and horse pits, no matter what, in a word, in order to delay the march of Liu He's army, Gongsun Zan can be said to do everything.

Fortunately, Li Ping's skills played a role, making the march speed much faster, but even so, it took a full five days to wait for the army to reach the bottom of the city.

Not far from the city just now, Liu He couldn't help but scold: "This Gongsun Zhan is really hateful, less than three hundred miles away, there are many obstacles, let us walk for a full five days, it seems that this guy has decided to resist to the end, hum, even if your city is a real strong city soup pool, I will definitely break you!" ”

And when they really arrived at the city, all the people couldn't help but gasp when they saw the nest that Gongsun Chan had painstakingly managed, because Gongsun Chan had dug more than ten deep trenches outside the moat, and transported the soil from the trenches to the middle of the trenches, and cast a mountain of earth as high as five or six zhang, which was very wide on top of these hills, and built a camp on it, and the dirt mountain in the middle was particularly eye-catching, up to more than ten zhang, and the camp gate was made of steel.

"I really didn't expect that in just two or three months, Gongsun Zhan, the old thief, would build Tuyan City so impregnable, I don't know how much civilian power was used during this period? However, the most difficult thing in the world to break through is not these camps, but the people's will, without the support of the people, see how long this old thief can hold out? The order went down, and the soldiers of all roads set up a camp, besieged Gongsun Zhan's camp heavily, and temporarily stood still, listening to my orders. ”

Liu He knew that with such a strong defense, even if the most skilled siege army led the army to attack, he would definitely suffer heavy losses, and he was not willing to cause heavy damage to the soldiers under his command for such a lonely city, so he ordered the army to stand still for the time being, and then find a way to deal with this old thief.

So Liu He summoned his advisers to discuss the solution to the problem, but the enemy's camp was so strong that it could be easily captured in a short time without paying a heavy price for casualties, even wise men such as Guo Jia and Xun You had no idea for a while.

At this time, I saw Huang Yueying and said, "I have a way to deal with Gongsun Zhan." ”

"Oh? I don't know what tricks Huang has to join the army? Hurry up. When Liu He heard this, he was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly said.

I saw Huang Yueying said: "I saw the thunderbolt made by Mr. Liu Ziyang before, and found that this thing can be slightly changed, so that its range is longer, and the stones sent are larger, so that we can use the stone throwing car to directly smash their camp, and then take the opportunity to lead the army to attack one by one, even if it is ten sieges, in fact, there is nothing to be afraid of, because if you attack ten times, you can capture ten times, not to mention that as long as you occupy one heavy, we are equivalent to having the same geographical advantages as them, what are you worried about?" ”

Hearing Huang Yueying's words, Wang Cang first shook his head and said with a wry smile: "But even if we can smash the camp on the other side's earth mountain, it will be difficult to capture those earth mountains, because in front of those earth mountains are ravines that are several zhang deep and more than ten zhang wide, and our people can't pass at all. ”

But I saw Huang Yueying said: "This is not a problem, because I have developed a kind of equipment, which can plug the ravines and make the moat a thoroughfare, these instruments only need three days, and hundreds of thousands of sets can be produced, even if the production time of the improved version of the thunderbolt is added, it is only five or six days, in addition, I have also improved the siege ladder and other siege weapons, I believe that by handing over these siege equipment to the hands of General Koji, it will definitely be able to exert greater power, I believe that by that time, Gongsun Zhan's defensive structure was simply not enough to pose a threat. ”

"What? Ying'er, can you really build this kind of river-filling machine? Liu He was immediately excited when he heard this, and he didn't even need to call Huang Shenjun, and directly called "Ying'er".

But seeing Huang Yueying Zhengse, he said: "The lord, please call the lower official Huang Senjun, in fact, this kind of equipment was not thought up by the lower official, but you came up with it by the lord, can the lord still remember the book of heaven that was given to the lower official?" ”
