Chapter 57: Can't Escape My Palm
A bloodstained banner tree was raised, and the word "koji" was written on it. After the defeat of Baima Yi from the battlefield of the boundary bridge, Koji Yi's reputation was completely resounded, and he was named the No. 1 general of the Yuan army.
Gongsun Zhan's men and horses finally retreated, and the corpses spread out everywhere, leaving the soil soaked in blood. There were also many people lying on the ground groaning in pain.
Yuan Xi stuck his sword in the dirt in front of him and sat down on the ground.
It's too cunning, it's too cunning. Gongsun Chan actually left his soldiers behind and ran away by himself. Now there is chaos in this forest, and the banners of the troops coming from all directions are mixed, and it is impossible to tell who is who, only that they are all Yuan Shao's troops, and there is no longer a soldier from Youzhou. In this chaotic situation, it is no longer possible to chase after Gongsun Zhan. He may well have gotten out in the crowd.
This is mass blindness, if Gongsun Chan is chased by one person, he is likely to have nowhere to escape. And he is chased in the middle of a crowd of people, and there is no distinction between friend and foe, so it is very likely that he will escape.
"Huh, Yuan Xi?"
A big man walked over and kicked him lightly.
Yuan Xi raised his head and saw that it was Xu Dayan.
"Big Eyes, why are you here?"
Xu Dayan was covered with many wounds, some of which were already scarred, but his clothes were torn everywhere, and if it weren't for the armor, he would look like a beggar begging for food along the street.
Xu said with big eyes: "I followed the general to chase behind Gongsun Zhan's ass for several days......"
Yuan Xi said: "What about Li Ping and Fan Yang? ”
Xu said with big eyes: "They are all scattered, and they don't care about finding a team, anyway, they just follow the general, and in the end there are only a few hundred people left." ”
Yuan Xi hurriedly asked the question he was most concerned about: "Have you caught Gongsun Zhan?" ”
Xu Dayan shook his head and scolded: "We have almost surrounded them, and I don't know where two horses came out. The horse, which is so well controlled, is about to rush out of the weakest point of our encirclement. The general reacted quickly enough to quickly order us to fill the gap. I thought I would be able to catch the man on the horse, but suddenly the man made a turn...... It's the first time I've seen someone riding like this in the woods. Later, I realized that he was attacking all sides, and fled from the other side while we were all piled together. Our men were also shot with two arrows, taking two lives, both in the throat, and one arrow killing, accurate. ”
Yuan Xi was shocked in his heart and blurted out: "It's a mustache!" ”
"Mustache?"
Yuan Xi said: "This person is the best player in the Gongsun Army, and he is still a marksman, tsk, but unfortunately he was escaped." But it's better to run away, it's a pity to die here. The more Yuan Xi thought about it, the more greedy he became, if he had a military general like a mustache under his command, it would be underdeveloped. I haven't heard of Tian Yu in key history, maybe there is one in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but I can't remember it anyway. It shows that this person is not very famous, and if he is not famous, it means that he is not well mixed, and if he does not mix well, he will have a chance to poach.
"Where's the general?" Yuan Xi asked.
Xu pointed with his big eyes and said, "It's right there......"
Yuan Xi slowly approached the direction he pointed, and only then did he see Ko Yi.
Lu Yi was like a hill in front of Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao had to look up at him. But Yuan Shao was not afraid at all, and glared at him coldly. The two of them just faced each other, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was extremely awkward.
Tian Feng cleared his throat on the side, ready to speak. At this time, Lu Yi preemptively arched his hand and said: "The last general is late for rescue, and I hope that Yuan Gong will forgive me." ”
"The last general?" Yuan Shao didn't laugh angrily: "You still know your own identity?" Thanks to you today, I might have died here. ”
Tian Feng wiped his cold sweat and said: "Yes, General Koyi came in time and ...... in time."
Yuan Shao spread out his palms and said, "What about Gongsun Zhan?" ”
Koji Yi was stunned for a moment, bowed his head and said, "I ran away......"
"Hahaha......" Yuan Shao looked up to the sky and laughed: "General Liyi has been planning for a long time, and he did not hesitate to use General Ben as bait and set up an ambush on all sides, so he let Gongsun Chan run away?" Han Xin surrounded Xiang Yu back then, if he let Xiang Yu run away like you, I don't know if the Han family was in the end in the world. ”
Koji Yi said: "This...... It was indeed the negligence of the subordinates. ”
Yuan Shao said: "Negligence? Fortunately, Gongsun Chan was also negligent, otherwise I would have been hit by an arrow in the head, you know? The arrow came from where you were standing, and it swooped......" He made a flying motion, pointed a finger at his head, and said, "Come from here, bang, my head is still buzzing...... Are you a proud general? Speaking of which, with 800 elite soldiers against the White Horse Yicong, this is famous all over the world, and you don't need to take me seriously? ”
In the past, Yuan Shao always roared and scolded, but this time he said slowly and calmly, not like he was angry at all, but Lu Yi never dared to raise his head, Yuan Xi saw a little bead of sweat dripping from his forehead, and it seemed that there was a huge pressure on his shoulders.
Koji Yi said: "If it is said that it is the battle of Jieqiao, if you listen to me at that time, and add one or two thousand cavalry to respond, I am afraid that you can capture Gongsun Chan on the spot, and it will not fall to the current situation......"
"Hehehe......" Yuan Shao said and applauded, "Look, this is the style of a general, just after the battle, I started to review, this is to throw the responsibility to me?" ”
Koji Yi said: "The last general doesn't dare, just tell the truth." If the lord has no other instructions, the last general will have to chase after Gongsun Zhan, and he will not be allowed to stay here. ”
Yuan Shao snorted coldly: "No need, why do you need to use your general Koji to chase a lost dog, even if his Gongsun Chan escapes back to Yijing, what can he do?" This time, you have worked hard to go to the camp first, and you have chased all the way here, and it is almost the end of the strong crossbow. Gather your troops and rest properly. I command you to move to Lecheng and stand by where you are. ”
Koji turned around, shrugged his shoulders, and didn't reply. Yuan Xi was originally behind him, but at this time, the two of them glanced at each other, and Lu Yi smiled bitterly, and then walked away without looking back.
"Xianyi!" Yuan Shao saw that Yuan Xi was nearby and waved his hand to him.
Yuan Xi had no choice but to walk over.
Yuan Shao pointed in the direction where Lu Yi left and said, "You heard it just now, rude!" Arrogant! Those who don't know still think that I am his subordinate, and they don't take our Yuan family in their eyes at all. When I was the captain of Xiyuan, he was just a bandit leader in Liangzhou, with at most twenty or thirty horsemen under his command. Later, when I took Yecheng as a pastor in Jizhou, he was just a school captain who guarded the door. If I hadn't promoted him back then, he would be a veteran by now. Now you dare to teach me a lesson? ”
Tian Feng said: "Lord, it's just some quarrels, so why bother? Now that the battle is almost won, let's think about the next step first. ”
Yuan Xi actually understands Yuan Shao's feelings, just now, he also experienced the feeling of despair, that is the edge of life and death, maybe just a trace of hesitation will lead to saying goodbye to this world. But I also have to thank Lu Yi, if he hadn't attracted Yuan Shao's attention, I'm afraid he would have become the one who carried the black pot, because it was he who instigated Yuan Shao to chase him out this time. If he didn't chase him out, Yuan Shao would never be killed by Gongsun Zhan. So from this standpoint, he really can't say more?
Yuan Shao called him over, put a hand on his shoulder, and said, "Xianyi, you pull Zhang He's troops over, as soon as possible, to Lecheng ......."
"Why don't you go directly to Yijing?"
Because Gongsun Zhan must have retreated to Yijing this time, the destination Yuan Xi thought about was also Yijing. However, to use Zhang He's halberd, Yuan Xi was a little unexpected. Nearby were all troops aided by Lu Xiang and Guo, and these two troops were obviously more mobile and flexible. When Zhang He's cumbersome halberd soldiers came, did he still expect them to attack the city?
Yuan Shao said: "Just listen to my orders...... It's in Lecheng. Gongsun Zhan no longer has the strength, he has no way to retreat north, Liu Yu's old subordinates have already occupied Jixian County, and the Wuhuan people are estimated to have also arrived in Yuyang, he has no other possibility than to stick to the road of Yijing. ”
"That ......"
"So we have to ...... steadily" Yuan Shao pulled him and said: "Let Zhang He come over first, everyone will also gather the trilogy, and when everything is ready, you can officially besiege Yi Jing, Gongsun Chan can't escape from my palm." ”
