Chapter Fifty-Eight: Give Way to Jinan
Defeat, complete defeat, 20,000 troops now fled back only more than 3,000 people, that a wave of defeat and depression instantly filled the camp of the entire Qingzhou army, and now the school of people who protect Jiao He plus the defeated soldiers who fled back are less than 10,000 people, how to defeat the momentum of the Yellow Turban Army?
What's more, I heard that Duan Pu was also killed by the opposite general's kung fu formation, which shows that there are general-level generals in the other party's generals, which at least in terms of high-end force, how can they fight to the death?
Breaking the cauldron and sinking the boat, that is the courage of the horseman, but it is not something that he Jiao He easily tried.
Therefore, although Jiao He is still showing up frequently in the camp to boost morale, he is secretly stepping up to clean up and prepare to take some elite soldiers to take the opportunity to run away.
……
"Lord Assassin Shi, Lord Assassin Shi, the last general Su Hu has an urgent military intelligence report."
Su Hu is the last captain-level talent beside him, and Jiao He handed over the rest of the troops except for the five hundred guards to him, and he is also the only backbone of the Qingzhou Han Army now, he is so flustered, but it makes the already depressed Jiao He even more anxious.
"What?"
continued to make up his mind to run away, and the current battle situation was even more hopeless, so at this moment, Jiao He still pretended to be calm in order for himself to run smoothly, and asked Su Hu.
"The main force of the Yellow Turban Army entrenched in Jinan attacked Le'an, and Le'an fell."
Su Hu, who bowed slightly, said that when he lost another county, although he was a little depressed, his tone revealed a trace of happiness that could not be hidden.
The fall of Le'an, that's not a problem, anyway, although Qingzhou is not big in the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, it is not small, and the loss of a county is an itch of moss for Qingzhou, which is now a broken window.
The important thing is that the meaning behind the fall of Le'an, that is, the main force of the Yellow Turban Army, which was blocked in front of them, like a knife on their necks, has moved away from Jinan, and they can pass through Jinan smoothly and shrink to Beihai.
The main force of the Yellow Turban Army will fight to the North Sea again? Not to mention whether they can digest most of Qingzhou's territory, even if they fight, they can retreat to Xuzhou by boat and save their lives, which is much stronger than the three and four here.
"Lord Thorn Shi, are we passing through the Kingdom of Jinan?"
Licking the corners of his mouth, although he was disdainful of the thief army composed of mud legs, Su Hu undoubtedly thought that this was their only chance, although he didn't know why the main force of the Yellow Turban Army in front of him went crazy and suddenly ran to conquer Le'an, but this was the last way for them to retreat, whether there was an ambush in front of them, they had to break through.
"Order the troops, immediately open out, pass through Jinan, and retreat to Beihai."
Jiao He, who paced left and right for a few steps, finally made up his final decision, that is, to make a gamble and withdraw to Beihai with the troops.
Although it is safer to run away, but his position in the history of assassination will definitely not be kept, and he still has to gamble again for the sake of glory and wealth in the future.
"Whoa."
Su Hu, who flashed a glimmer of hope in his eyes, also attached great importance to his official position, and he was very satisfied if he could not lose his official position and life.
In this way, one 'quietly' passed through Jinan in fear and withdrew to Beihai safely, while the other deliberately watched the other side withdraw his troops, while he put on a busy appearance and was uneasy about the world.
……
"Go, tell General Bu Ji that our department has captured Le'an, and ask General Bu Ji to send troops to capture Jinan and besiege the Han army in Qingzhou on the front line of the North Sea."
When the Han army was reported to be able to pass through the entire territory of Jinan at noon tomorrow, Han Yuan's several horsemen rushed to the plain county town and had just destroyed Jiao He's Bu Ji headquarters who had stayed in a school.
"Lord, in this case, General Buji asked, is it inappropriate?"
Du Yuan, who was frowning, looked at the herald who had already galloped out, and asked hesitantly.
There is no doubt that what he asked was that if Bu Ji asked why he didn't block Jinan Kingdom, but instead attacked Le'an and let go of the remnants of the Han army, Han Yuan was a little suspicious of being unable to explain.
"Our department annihilated more than 20,000 Han troops, the soldiers and horses are tired, and the soldiers have suffered heavy losses.
As if talking to himself, and as if he was solving doubts, Han Yuan looked ahead, put his hand on Le'an's battlements, and said softly.
"This."
Du Yuan, who was blinking his eyes, had nothing to say back, thinking about it like this, it seemed to be the same thing.
After all, although the commanders of the Yellow Turban Army are all admired by the world in harmony, but retaining their own strength is a person's most basic idea, I believe that no matter how hot Bu Ji is, he will not be able to fight with Han Yuanbu, not to mention, they have relieved the siege of Bu Ji's troops and annihilated the main force of the Han army, what can Bu Ji say?
"Order the whole army to be quick, move all the grain, grass and salaries from the treasury into the mountains, and evacuate Le'an after three days."
Thinking about the days when he left the Yellow Turban Army in the future, Han Yuan felt the slightest chill for the first time without a giant umbrella on his head to shelter himself from the wind and rain.
"Whoa."
Du Yuan, who heard the order, hurriedly went down and selected people to speed up.
In Le'an, a city that has not yet been conquered by the Yellow Turban Army, there are countless amounts of money and food in the treasury of the official family and the treasury of the rich family, which is really an eye-opener for Han Yuan, and what is especially joyful is that this harvest is all into his own pocket, but there is no need to share it with the brothers in the fellow battalion, this time the harvest is simply supporting the people and horses under his command.
An Ansheng's development is enough for 50,000 people for two years, which really surprised Han Yuan, and he secretly scolded officials for being corrupt and businessmen for being unreasonable, no wonder they would let the mud-legged people burst out with such a big resentment and use it for revenge.
"Great sage and good teacher, I don't know how you are now?"
Looking at Jizhou from afar, thinking about Zhang Jiao, who had learned the top exercises and carefully solved his doubts after coming to this world, Han Yuan couldn't help but mutter.
People are not grass and trees, who can be ruthless, although his heart does not belong to the Yellow Turban Army, but he still has a trace of reverence for Zhang Jiao.
Therefore, for the situation in Jizhou, he is not as ruthless as he imagined, if he does not have a clear understanding, he is afraid that going back and living and dying with Zhang Jiao is his most desired choice at present.
