Chapter 249 Arrogant Juyi
Gongsun Zhan's 6,000 cavalry was surrounded by Yuan Shao's 20,000 troops. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć More than 10,000 foot soldiers, holding shields, resisted the cavalry to the death, trapping the six thousand cavalry into a group and forming a circular phalanx. On the outer layer, there are soldiers holding spears and long ge, and through the gap in the shield, they stab at the Gongsun Zhan cavalry in the inner layer.
Under Yuan Shao, dozens of generals commanded outside to prevent Gongsun Zhan's cavalry from breaking through. There were also hundreds of soldiers who died first, broke into the formation, and slashed the cavalry under Gongsun Zhan without life.
"Rush me!" Gongsun Zhan was in front, wanting to use his horsepower to rush out of the battle group, but in front of him was a human wall composed of reinforcement shields, and the long spears of the dead and wounded were clearly revealed, and the surrounding Yuan troops were in a group, and if they wanted to rush out, there was nowhere to borrow their strength.
The Gongsun Zan cavalry was trapped in it, and they couldn't move at all, because there was nowhere to use their strength to gallop, and the strength of the cavalry couldn't be exerted at all.
However, Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses kept shrinking inward, and when they contracted, they constantly deprived Gongsun Zhan's cavalry of living space. Cavalry continued to be killed under Changge, and Gongsun Chan tried to break out of the encirclement several times, but he couldn't do it.
First, there were generals of the Yuan army on the periphery, and once someone wanted to break out of the encirclement, they were all repelled by the generals. With Yuan Shao's personal presence, he was able to boost his morale, and the soldiers under Yuan Shao's command were like wolves and tigers, and they resisted the cavalry to break through.
"Could it be that my Gongsun Chan is going to die here?" After failing to charge several times, and looking at the fire in the north, Gongsun Zhan's heart was like ashes: "Instead of being defeated and humiliated, it is better for me to end up with heroism!" Brothers, come down, I can't stop you! ā
Gongsun Zhan's eyes were full of tears, and he put his sword around his neck, and wanted to end his life.
"General, no! We'd rather die than surrender! ā
"If the general is not here, we don't want to live alone!"
The generals around Gongsun Chan grabbed Gongsun Chan to the death and prevented him from committing suicide.
"If I am captured, I will definitely be humiliated, is it possible that you want to see my Gongsun Zhan's jokes? Let go? Gongsun Chan snorted coldly.
"General, Liu Xuande from the north has been killed!" Suddenly, a rider looked to the north and said in surprise.
I saw the north, Liu Bei's three brothers, with dozens of cavalry and more than 100 cavalry, rushed over. Liu Bei had 3,000 soldiers and horses in his headquarters, all of which were accumulated from the suppression of the Yellow Turbans, and there were cavalry formed in Youzhou. However, Liu Bei, the other soldiers and horses, stayed in the camp to respond, and brought more than 100 cavalry to rescue Gongsun Zhan.
"Brother, don't panic, I'll take you out!" Liu Bei shouted at the trapped soldiers and horses.
It is extremely difficult to break through from the inside out, but it is very simple to fight hard from the outside to the inside, and let the cavalry out of the trap.
"Second brother and third brother, you each go from one side, kill a hole, and let Gongsun Taishou come out!" Liu Bei ordered.
"Don't worry, big brother, it's just a bunch of local chickens and dogs!" Guan Yu Qinglong Yanyue knife was horizontal, and he took the lead in killing, and Zhang Fei was not to be outdone.
The two of them each led dozens of horsemen and picked a corner where no generals were stationed to kill.
"Drink!" Guan Yu was the first to arrive, and the Qinglong Glaive swept out, and a row of reinforcements who attacked the cavalry with spears fell to the ground and died.
"Guan Yunchang is here, brothers, break through!" The Youzhou cavalry trapped inside, seeing this, broke through one after another.
Guan Yu raised his sword and slashed one after another, slashing the shield hand of the Yuan army besieging the Youzhou cavalry to the ground. A hole appeared, and the Youzhou cavalry took this opportunity to rush out one after another.
"Quick, fence me up!" Lu Kuang, one of the surrounding Yuan Shao's troops, arrived and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to re-encircle.
"Look for death!" Guan Yu frowned, and slashed Lu Kuang off the horse with a knife. "Hurry up and rush out and head north back to the camp, where my eldest brother's foot soldiers will pick you up!"
After Guan Yu finished speaking, he slashed and slashed, constantly harvesting the lives of the Yuan army outside the encirclement.
Zhang Fei on the other side did not let it go, stabbed Lu Xiang who rushed over to command with a spear, opened a gap, and let the cavalry under Gongsun Zan rush forward.
The periphery was killed by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and the cavalry inside was like a flood that burst the embankment, and the reinforcements could not be stopped.
Guan Zhang and the others took dozens of horsemen to slash one after another, killing dozens of Yuan soldiers, tearing a huge hole in the encirclement of Yuan soldiers, and the cavalry inside rushed out.
The horsepower of the cavalry, relying only on the foot soldiers, naturally could not catch up, and the Youzhou cavalry broke through one after another and headed north. Guan Zhang and the others worked together to rescue Gongsun Zhan, who was under siege, and the cavalry fled to the north.
"Give me chase!" Yuan Shao was so angry that the duck in his mouth actually flew, how could Yuan Shao not be angry? Gongsun Zhan's cavalry galloped across the wilderness, followed by Yuan's foot soldiers.
However, in less than half an hour, Gongsun Chan returned to the camp north of the boundary bridge, only to see that the fire was soaring to the sky, and his camp had been burned.
Most of the soldiers under his command were Jizhou Pan Feng's soldiers and horses, most of whom were persuaded to surrender by Ju Yi, and only thousands of soldiers and horses fled north.
At the gate of the camp, Ju Yi had already been in full battle, the crossbow cart was set up, and the Gongsun Zhan cavalry had just arrived, and it was a burst of crossbow arrows to meet the head-on.
"Brother Bo Jue retreat quickly, I will break off with the second brother and the third brother for you!" Liu Bei hurriedly persuaded.
"I'm not leaving, tens of thousands of brothers died under Yuan's saber, I can't go!" Gongsun Chan shouted angrily.
Liu Bei dissuaded: "Although the general was defeated, only the cavalry suffered heavy losses, and the casualties of the infantry were not many. ā
"Hehe, how can it be so easy!" Gongsun Zhan shook his head and smiled bitterly, this big camp is now burned, including grain and grass, money and grain, with Yuan Shao's income, Rao is returning to northern Hebei, the army is disheartened, and if he wants to fight again, he will not be Yuan Shao's opponent.
"Husband, how can you lose your fighting spirit because of a momentary victory or defeat? Gongsun Boju, don't be a daughter, let me look down on you! Pull your generals away! Liu Bei shouted angrily.
"General, let's go!" The arrows flew like flying, the Juyi army was attacked by the rain of arrows, and the Youzhou cavalry continued to fall off their horses, and the soldiers under the command of Gongsun Chan desperately protected Gongsun Chan, and dragged him away.
"Let's go!" Liu Guanzhang and the three of them were behind, blocking the arrows, fighting and retreating, heading north.
"General, chase after you!" Seeing Gongsun Zhan fleeing, the deputy general beside Ju Yi said anxiously.
"Chasing? They are cavalry, what do you chase? Gongsun Zhan now only has these cavalry left, and the foot soldiers are scattered everywhere, and he can't hold Jizhou! What is the need to chase! Ju Yi sneered.
Soon after Gongsun Chan left, Yuan Shao led the main army to arrive.
"Lord, the last general is incompetent, and he can't leave Gongsun Zhan!" Ju Yi bowed to Yuan Shao, but he didn't blame himself at all. The deputy general beside Ju Yi wanted to speak and stopped, but was stared back by Ju Yi with a cold look.
"Haha, you fought well in this battle, and you greatly frustrated Gongsun Zhan's sharpness!" Yuan Shao didn't know why, but he praised Ju Yi.
"Thank you for the praise of the lord, in my opinion, Gongsun Chan is vulnerable, Guan Zhang is all rats, I can be captured in one battle!" Ju Yi said proudly.
"You ......" Yan Liangwen and the others behind Yuan Shao were angry, Guan Zhang and the others were rats, and Gongsun Zan was vulnerable, but we and the lord were defeated by them before, could it be that you look down on us? (To be continued.) )
