After sending off the old fishermen, Yu Ban immediately ordered the whole army to go to bed as soon as possible, and crossed the river at the second watch of the next day. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The night rain was misty, the wide river was pitch black, Yu Ban sent to the river to meet the soldiers could not see anything, after midnight heard the sound of the water hitting the wooden boat on the shore, hurriedly went to the shore to observe, saw more than 200 fishing boats with ropes connected to the shore, the boatman threw the cable to the soldiers on the shore, and the soldiers who responded hurriedly tied the cable to the trunk of the tree on the shore.

Yu was overjoyed after receiving the report, "Order all departments to cross the river according to the original plan!" ”

At the second watch, the captains of the various departments woke up the soldiers who were still sleeping, and in order not to attract the attention of the other side, the officers and men of the whole army were silent and silently put on their armor.

Yu Ban saw that although there were many fishing boats, the carrying capacity was not large, so he ordered the whole army to bring only arrows and weapons without dry food, and allocated 500 people to stay in the camp.

The soldiers were all surprised, Yu Ban is too much, right? What do you do after crossing the river without dry food? Is it to be solved quickly?

However, the Jizhou army has been trained by the training base, and has a strong sense of obedience, although some do not understand, but they all do it, so that the efficiency of crossing the river has been improved a lot.

Heavy rain was pervasive, and the Yellow River could not see five fingers, and from time to time the captain reached out to test the direction and speed of the water, and instructed the rockers to adjust the course.

In order to ensure the physical strength of the soldiers, these boatmen spontaneously organized young and strong laborers to be responsible for rocking the boat, and the soldiers only had to stay on the boat, and the heavy rain soaked the clothes and armor of the soldiers, but everyone did not care, and braved the autumn rain to shuttle on the surface of the Yellow River.

There were a few boats that couldn't stand the rapids, overturned on their sides, and the soldiers overturned into the water, but the soldiers who passed by strictly abided by the military orders and did not mess up the formation to rescue, the fishermen did not understand, and they did not save their comrades-in-arms when they saw death, is this team really reliable?

In fact, why don't the soldiers want to save it? Just for the sake of the overall situation, now we can only get on the south bank as soon as possible, once the formation is disrupted to rescue, it is inevitable that the fighter plane will be delayed, and on this kind of black-lit rapids, the chance of success of the rescue is very small, so I can't do it, there is only one goal: cross the Yellow River as soon as possible!

By the time of the day, the 30,000 troops of Yu Ban's department had all crossed the Yellow River, and then they were broken into pieces and scattered among the reeds on the riverbank.

At this time, there was still a morning fog in Juan County, the autumn rain had gradually stopped, the water vapor had risen, forming a thick fog, there was no tension at all about the coming of the big war, Wang Fang was still sleeping, and he didn't know that there were already 30,000 troops coming to the city.

Yu Ban was observing the movement outside the city, and at this time, a fisherman who followed him as a guide said to Ban: "General, look at this fog, it will dissipate in another hour, you better hide first, otherwise they will find out." ”

Yu Ban said: "One hour is enough!" ”

The fisherman was puzzled, but he didn't want to ask too much, so he kept silent.

Yu Ban's own soldiers went to call a few generals over, and set up tasks on the side, and in the thick fog, a group of soldiers came out of the reeds and let the guide lead them to the Wang Fang military camp outside the city.

After a while, the rest of the soldiers also slowly approached the city gate.

Half an hour later, only the sound of killing outside the city of Juan County was heard, and sixty percent of the soldiers under Yu Ban's command had already fought with Wang Fangjun, and Wang Fangjun was blinded by this sudden attack, and the whole camp was in chaos.

Most of the forbidden army was originally cavalry, because the ferry boat was very small, so the war horses did not cross the river, and the attack in the dense fog was more secretive.

The soldiers under the command of Yu Ban worked hard, formed a formation and slashed everywhere, those panicked enemy troops had no intention of resisting, only hated their father and mother for having two legs, and fled in all directions, and this part of the soldiers under Yu Ban was unmoved, the formation was not chaotic, and they searched one by one, and the searched camp tents were directly burned.

The king in the city heard the movement outside the city, and hurriedly went to the city to observe, but the fog was too thick, and he couldn't see the situation outside the city at all.

Just as he was worried, the arrows used by the Xiliang army to warn the urgency were shot into the air, and Wang Fang hurriedly beat the drum to gather the generals, preparing to send troops out of the city to support, and the marching Sima hurriedly dissuaded it, and it was necessary to prevent the county from losing.

Wang Fang thought about it and was right, so he ordered the whole army to guard the gate tightly to prevent the enemy from taking the opportunity to attack the city.

Yu Ban waited outside the city for the defenders of the city to come out of the city to rescue, but seeing that there was no movement in the city, he felt that the possibility of the enemy rescue in the city was not very large, so he took the soldiers to join the battle of the enemy camp outside the city.

Sure enough, as Yu Ban expected, when the dense fog completely dissipated, the battle in the camp outside the city had ended, and the corpses of Wang Fangjun's army were everywhere, and the camp tents that had turned into ashes could be seen everywhere, and green smoke was still emitting.

Wang Fang saw the situation outside the city clearly this time, and was very annoyed, knowing that the enemy's target was in the camp outside the city, so he waved his army to save it, but now it was too late to say anything.

Yu Ban lost more than 3,000 people, but the number of enemies killed was eight times the number of casualties on his side, and the enemy army that escaped by luck had disappeared without a trace, and could no longer form combat effectiveness.

Wang Fangjun was quite frightened by the situation of the camp outside the city, and when he saw the Jizhou soldiers attacking the city from all directions, he panicked and hurriedly arranged defenses.

There were a lot of trebuchets in Wang Fang's army, which originally wanted to cross the river and recover the city occupied by the Jizhou army, but now it was captured by Yu Ban's soldiers and used to attack the city.

After a fierce battle, Wang Fang led 5,000 remnants of his army to escape from the West Gate and went straight to Xingyang along the south bank of the Yellow River.

Yu Ban led the army into the city, killed several waves of stubborn defenders, the rest of the defenders had no intention of fighting, and surrendered one after another, Yu Ban was all accepted according to the order, went out to be wounded, sick and disabled, and obtained more than 6,800 soldiers, a small part of which were Xiliang soldiers, and the vast majority of them were young and strong soldiers of the Lieutenant Department of the Division.

Yu Ban distributed these troops to the various armies to prevent them from fighting against the water in tandem, and then destroyed the defensive materials in the city. He also ordered the whole army to replenish from the seized materials, and the remaining grain was distributed to the people by the county commander.

After packing up, Yu Ban's army withdrew from Juan County, and returned to the north bank of the Yellow River with the help of fishermen's ferries.

As Xun Yu expected, Li Wei learned that Wang Fang was defeated by the Jizhou army, and ordered the soldiers and horses of the surrounding counties to go north to Juan County to take revenge, but Juan County had already gone to the empty city, and there was no shadow of a Jizhou soldier, and Yu Ban was fortunate to evacuate, otherwise he would have fallen into the encirclement of nearly 100,000 troops.

Cao Ren learned that Li Dao was anxious and concentrated his forces to the north, and felt that the opportunity could not be lost, so he intercepted and killed Li Dian halfway, Li Dao's army was cut off by the waist, and he could not take care of each other, and was defeated by Li Dian and Cao Ren's two armies, and retreated westward in embarrassment.

Cao Ren still wanted to continue the march, but after receiving a military order from Cao Cao, he had to withdraw to Chenliu County and let Li Dao's army go west.
