Gongsun Chan finally defeated Bunton, and although the key to the final victory was the dramatic factor of Wuyan's appearance, the victory was real. Pen %fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Now on the battlefield of the Luhe River, Wuhuan in Liaoxi has left more than 10,000 corpses, which can be said to be a river of blood, the ownerless war horses are gnawing on the grass, and flocks of vultures fall down to gnaw on the corpses.

The Youzhou army counted the battlefield and found that although the battle was won, the price paid was quite large, more than 8,000 people were killed, the rest were more than 1,000 wounded, and countless were slightly injured, and the only one who did not suffer losses was the thousands of defenders in Lucheng. In any case, this battle was won after all, and it was difficult to recover the pre-war strength without three or five years of time. Moreover, if he is defeated, I believe that whether it is Wuyan in Youbeiping or Subyan in Liaodong, he will not dare to look west in the short term.

As long as the situation stabilizes, the lost counties can be recaptured immediately. Now that the siege of Luxian has been lifted, troops can be transferred south immediately, Yuan Shao's side cannot be reassured after all, as long as the troops are sufficient, they can maintain a stalemate between Youzhou and Jizhou. At that time, the entire Youzhou was still under his control. When I return to Jixian County this time, I must reward the meritorious soldiers, and the child is getting better and better, and it seems that it is time to add more burdens to him. Gongsun Chan was thinking about how to deal with military and political affairs when he returned to Jixian County, but found that a fast horse galloped forward, and the knight came closer, turned over and dismounted and shouted to the guards beside Gongsun Zhan, "Take me to see the lord, Youzhou battle report." ”

When Gongsun Chan heard this, he knew that it must be something important, and said in a loud voice, "Let him come over!" “

As soon as the visitor saw Gongsun Zhan, he immediately knelt down to salute, and then reported: "Lord, something is wrong." Yuyang was lost, the defenders were exhausted, and Zou Dan committed suicide. ”

When Gongsun Chan heard this, his body shook and he almost fell off his horse. After he stabilized his mind, he asked, "How did Yuyang lose?" Tell me about it. ”

"I don't know. General Gongsun Fan asked the small fast horse to send a message to the lord, only saying that Yuyang was lost, and now he was leading the army to fight Yan Rou in the north of the Lu River. The enemy army is large, about 20,000 people, and the new Yuyang is well supplied, and it is hoped that the lord will send troops to reinforce it quickly. "Someone is coming.

After hearing this, Gongsun Chan was also anxious. "You go down to rest, hurry back quickly after eating, and tell Gongsun Fan to stick to it, and I will lead the army north tomorrow. When the time comes, we will exterminate these rebels in one fell swoop. ”

Gongsun Chan immediately convened the generals to discuss the strategy of going north to reinforce Gongsun Fan. Unexpectedly, at this time, Jixian County came to report quickly, saying that Liu He raised 50,000 troops in Gaoyang, and under the banner of avenging Liu Yu, he was preparing to go north to Yicheng and echo Yan Rou.

Gongsun Zan scolded when he heard this, "Yuan Shaopifu, shameless! I had just signed an armistice treaty, and before the ink was dry, I raised troops to invade my Youzhou. Thinking that Liu He only went to Yuan Shao alone, how did he gather these 50,000 horses? This is clearly Yuan Shao's support behind him. Then he asked the soldier who reported the news, "Do you think these 50,000 horses are true?" In addition to Liu He, who else is the banner of the enemy army, and who is the leader of the troops? ”

The person hurriedly replied: "Lord Qiqi, Liu He raised troops and claimed to be handsome with 50,000 horses to take revenge, our horses have been explored a few times, although we have not seen the details, but the banners all over the mountains and fields, I am afraid that the number of people is only a lot more." In addition to Liu He's banner in the enemy formation, there is also a big banner with the word "Ju", which should be led by Juyi. In addition, I had heard that Zhang Jaw and Gao Gan went to ask for Zhang Yan in Montenegro, and Yan Liangwen Chou did not leave Yuan Shao's left and right. ”

Gongsun Chan couldn't help but take a breath of cool air, if the 50,000 soldiers and horses were a real fight, then even if he went with an army of 20,000, he was afraid that he would not be as good as the enemy in terms of troops, and it was his old opponent Ju Yi who commanded the troops, and he had suffered losses under this person several times, and to be honest, he didn't want to fight this battle. However, Yicheng is its own fiefdom, after several constructions, it is an important town in Youzhou second only to Jixian County, and it is a necessary place for Youzhou to communicate with Jizhou, Yanzhou and Qingzhou. If Yicheng is lost, I am afraid that the territory of Yanzhou and Qingzhou will become an enclave, and the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of Hetian Kai alone will become turtles in the urn. Therefore, this battle must be fought, and if it is not fought, it must be fought. Thinking of this, Gongsun Zhan immediately ordered the whole army to go south to guard Yicheng, and all the weapons, grain and grass were arranged by Jixian County. 3,000 people stayed in Lu County. Gongsun Fan really had no choice but to let Zhao Yun go north with a thousand cavalry and a thousand reserve white horses. It is required that the front must be stabilized, and Yan Rou cannot be allowed to enter the territory of Guangyang County with a single soldier.

This arrangement is certain, and each will go down to prepare. Early in the morning of the second day, Zhao Yun prepared to set off with his entire army. The 1,000 reserve white horse servants said that they were cavalrymen, but in fact, they were all teenagers and half-old children, except for the battle of Lucheng, these children had never seen any battles. However, Youzhou is in danger, and there is no way to let these children go north, Zhao Yun thought that he could only make careful arrangements at that time, and try not to let these children sacrifice in vain.

After the army was assembled, it was about to set off, but the guards reported that Tian Jing, Li Kang, Leping, and Lu Qilin had returned. Don't say that I haven't seen him for a few days, Zhao Yun really wants his apprentices, and immediately sends an order to call them in.

At this sight, I found that several children seemed to have matured a lot. Although Tian Jing, this kid is smart, he inevitably gives people the impression of cynicism, and this time he seems to be more calm. Xiaoliu Lu Qilin is almost Tian Jing's follower, and this time he came back and changed a batch of good horses from nowhere, and he was stronger. Li Dang and Leping were each carrying a double axe, and the other was carrying an extra-large scimitar, and they didn't know where they came from, but looking at the joy on their faces, it seemed that they liked their new weapons very much.

The four of them came in to greet Zhao Yun, and Zhao Yun briefly asked them about their current situation, asked them to return to the team, and each led his original soldiers to set off with the army.

When the fourth elementary school arrived in the army, he saw Gongsun Xu and Liu Yong, and talked about the burning of grain and grass, and his pride was overflowing. Not to be outdone, Gongsun Zhan's army attacked Badun head-on and won a complete victory. The six children, after all, were young, and they had talked all the way without taking the danger of war to heart.

On this day, he was about to arrive at the camp of Gongsun Fan, but he found that there was a fire in front of him, and the shouts of killing were loud. Zhao Yun immediately asked the whole army to be on alert. An refused to wait to go to check, Tian Jing and Gongsun continued to ask for orders to go too, and Zhao Yun asked them to bring a piece of people to check. When Tian Jing and Gongsun Xu arrived, they found that the camp on the north bank of the Lu River of the Youzhou Army had been broken by the enemy, and fire broke out everywhere. Tian Jing asked Gongsun Xu to go back immediately to report to Zhao Yun, asking him to rush to help, set up the banner of Gongsun Zhan, and make a big show to take advantage of the unknown situation of the enemy army to scare the enemy army back. He led people to find Gongsun Fan, and Li Yizi was happy to be a few generals.

Zhao Yun got the report of Gongsun Xu and felt that although Tian Jing's plan was dangerous, it had a chance of success by more than fifty percent. A thousand regular cavalry were ordered to rush into the camp to kill the enemy, and a thousand reserve cavalry tied branches behind the tail of the horse, followed closely behind, and the horses were dusted and clamoured.

The enemy saw that the Youzhou army was attacking with reinforcements, and set up the banner of Gongsun Zhan, and it was estimated that there were at least 5,000 cavalry in the dust behind the horse, so he hurriedly called in to withdraw his troops.

Zhao Yun led the cavalry into the camp, drove away the enemy army, and immediately arranged people to collect the rout, reorganize the camp, set up antlers, dig trenches, and put the whole army on guard. Fortunately, Zhao Yun came early, and under the count, there were still 4,000 men and horses in the camp, but they were touched into the camp in the early morning, and there was no general command, so there was such a big defeat. Zhao Yun raised the account to discuss the matter, and Tian Jing and a few people carried Gongsun Fan, who was seriously injured, in.

Gongsun Fan's wound was in the back, seeing that the wound was stabbed by a dagger, the enemy stabbed Gongsun Fan's heart, but fortunately the stab was a few inches off, otherwise he would have died immediately. But I don't know if I can live in this way, it all depends on his creation.

Zhao Yun asked a few generals under Gongsun Fan, and only then did he know the general situation.

The general said to Zhao Yun, "Gongsun Fan led more than 10,000 people into Yuyang that day, and strictly followed Gongsun Zhan's explanation, but he couldn't hold out. Yan Rou led the troops to attack for half a month, and the two sides suffered casualties on both sides, but there was no progress. I don't want to think that five days ago, Zou Lie, the county lieutenant of Wuzhong County, led more than 1,000 defeated troops to come, saying that Badun led 20,000 troops to invade Jixian County, and Lingzhi, Tuyin, Wuzhong and other counties were lost one after another, and Lord Gongsun Chan sent him to help Zou Dan defend Yuyang, and asked General Gongsun Fan to lead the army to quickly return to Jixian County. This Zou Lie is the son and nephew of Zou Dan, the Taishou of Yuyang, and one of the first people to defect to General Gongsun after Liu Yu's death. General Gongsun Fan did not doubt him, and immediately led his troops back to help, and the two generals Liu Weitai and Li Yizi set off first with 2,000 cavalry, and we then set off. Unexpectedly, within three days of coming out, the news of Yuyang's loss came. General Gongsun Fan thought that if he returned to defend like this, he was afraid that he would lose the entire Yuyang County to the enemy, and he would inevitably suffer from the enemy at that time. Therefore, he resolutely set up camp, guarded the ferry north of the Lu River, and then sent people to ask General Gongsun Chan for instructions. At this time, a large number of routs retreated from Yuyang City, and the leader was still the county lieutenant Zou Lie. I didn't expect that this Zou Lie's wolf ambition was actually the enemy's spy. In the early hours of this morning, Zou Lie led hundreds of people to secretly open the gate of the village while the brothers in the camp were asleep and let the enemy in. Moreover, they set fire to the camp everywhere, shouting 'The army has attacked, General Gongsun Fan is dead, everyone run' to disturb the morale of the army. In this way, our large camp was breached, and the brothers fled in all directions, and no effective resistance was organized. If it weren't for the general coming, I'm afraid that more than 10,000 people would have to be confessed here. ”

After hearing this, Zhao Yun and the others also sighed, "I didn't expect this little-known Zou Lie to be so scheming, I am afraid that Gongsun Fan will be seriously injured, and the loss of Yuyang will come from this person's plan." ”

Tian Jing suddenly remembered what his father said that day, as soon as he told the county lieutenant of Wuzhong to bring troops to attack, the county lieutenant was scared away. It turned out that it was not scared away, but premeditated. It's no wonder that I didn't see this army when I sent a letter from Lu County to Wuzhong County, it turned out that they went north to Yuyang. But now I know that it's a little late, Zou Lie must have a good chance to meet him in the future.

Zhao Yun said to the generals, "General Gongsun's military order is for us to stick to the north bank of the Lu River, and now we still have 6,000 soldiers and horses no matter what. Moreover, I heard just now that the cavalry of the two generals Liu Weitai and Li Yizi is still intact, so I quickly sent someone to pass the message, so that the two generals could quickly come back and converge. It should be no problem for us to hold on to the 8,000 people, and as long as General Gongsun defeats Liu He's soldiers and horses, I believe that these Xu Dianliang clowns will definitely collapse without a fight. ”

The generals received orders and went back to arrange defense. Only Tian Jing stayed and said to Zhao Yun, "Master, I'm afraid that we are facing many more difficulties than we imagined." ”

"How can the division not know the difficulty of defending here, but if I don't say so, how can I let these defeated troops hold on. Jing'er, if you lose this battle, these reserve white horses will be handed over to you. Then he sighed to the north, "The fertile soil north of the Luhe River, I don't know how many Youzhou men's blood will be stained, the civil war will not stop, when will Hu be destroyed, hey......." ”
