Chapter 118: Zhao Yun Asks for War

Wen Chou was the first general in Yuan Shao's army, and at this moment he brought soldiers and horses to restore the fighting spirit of those defeated Yuan soldiers. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info And Hao Zhao also put away his mind of surrendering.

"Where is General Ju Yi, the lord heard that you did not deploy troops at the designated ambush point, but instead formed a formation in Yishui, and he was very uneasy, let me bring troops to help you."

"General Wen Chou, General Ju Yi, he ......" Hao Zhao wiped his tears and looked in the direction of Zhang Yan and the others.

"Bastard." Hearing this, Wen Chou's face became gloomy, although he didn't like Ju Yi, but after all, he was a fellow.

"The whole army obeys the order, the cavalry charges with me head-on, the infantry flanks outflank, and follows me to avenge General Juyi." With that, Wen Chou picked up his big knife and killed in the direction of Zhang Yan.

"Feiyan Army, besiege and kill this Yuan general for me." Looking at the killing Wen Chou, Zhang Yan immediately sent his descendant troops, the Feiyan Army, to meet him.

A sneer appeared on Wen Chou's face, and his long knife swept with a blow, and more than a dozen soldiers were knocked out of their horses, and their bodies were split in two.

Seeing this, Zhang Yan was shocked, because Wen Chou's martial arts had exceeded his cognitive scope. It is similar to Lu Bu, who was also Yuan General back then, and is now assigned by Yuan Shao and merged with the state.

"The whole army retreats." Zhang Yan immediately gave the order to retreat, and now the remnants of Yuan Shaojun's army have regained their morale because of Wen Chou's arrival, and Wen Chou brought a lot of soldiers and horses, about 10,000 people, and the Montenegrin army has been fighting fiercely for a long time, and the soldiers are tired. It's the smartest choice right now.

"The whole army took cover and killed the enemy in rear, and routed the enemy." Wen Chou took the lead in pursuit and entered the Black Mountain army. In this battle, the Montenegrin army was defeated, the 90,000 Montenegrin army was beaten to less than 40,000, and Zhang Yan himself was almost killed by Wen Chou, and finally fled back to Montenegro in disgrace.

When Gongsun Zhan received that Zhang Yan was defeated, and then retreated to his base camp, his face was gloomy. In recent days, he found that there were a lot more men and horses in the various counties around Yijing, although the total strength was still within the range that he could accept, but who knew if there were more soldiers and horses hidden.

"Lord, this time we have gathered all the troops of Youzhou in Yijing, this time we can only fight a decisive battle with Yuan Shao's army, otherwise once we send our soldiers and horses back to their original station, then we will inevitably be surrounded and intercepted by Yuan Shao's army, and then it will really be over. Gongsun Zhan's military advisor Guan Jingdao.

"Strategist, I know that I will share life and death with Yuan Shao this time, but I am afraid that the strength of our army is not as good as Yuan Shao." Gongsun Chan frowned.

"It's better to transfer back the 30,000 soldiers of the Youzhou Army who assisted Liu Bei, you must know that half of our army's most elite Baima Yicong has also been dragged on the Yanzhou battlefield, and by that time our army's strength should be able to fight with Yuan Shao."

When Gongsun Zhan heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and said: "Xuande's troops are not much, if we transfer our soldiers and horses back, then he may not be Cao Cao's opponent, you must know that Cao Cao still has no less than 150,000 soldiers and horses in his hands." ”

"Lord, I know that you and Xuande Gong have a deep brotherhood, but this is the critical moment for the survival of our army, and it is also appropriate to transfer back our soldiers and horses at this time. Moreover, if Xuande Gong cares about your affection, he should withdraw the army on the battlefield of Yanzhou, and then attack Yuan Shao's rear. ”

Under Guan Jing's persuasion, Gongsun Zhan personally wrote a letter to ask Tian Kai, who was still in Yanzhou, to come back.

When Tian Kai received Gongsun Zhan's letter, he hurriedly came to Liu Bei's mansion and asked Liu Bei to resign.

"Military division, once the Youzhou soldiers retreat, then our army will completely lose its strength advantage over Cao Cao's army, so what can we do." Liu Bei instructed his subordinates to hold Tian Kai for the time being, saying that he still had something to deal with.

When Chen Deng heard this, his face also flashed with sorrow, and said: "If the Youzhou soldiers once they leave, then our military heart will definitely be shaken, although the soldiers and horses stationed in Dongping this time are claimed to be 100,000, but in fact there are no 100,000 people, our Xuzhou soldiers account for 40,000, and the rest are the militia temporarily recruited by Zhang Miao, which can be regarded as a group of rabble, which is useless." ”

"Strategist, why don't we retreat back to Xuzhou." The scorching battle situation made Liu Bei retreat.

"No." Chen Deng's words became a little sharp, and his expression changed drastically.

Looking at Chen Deng with this appearance, Liu Bei was also stunned, he had never seen Chen Deng show such an expression.

"Strategist, why?" Liu Bei asked.

Chen Deng sighed, and then said in a worried tone: "If our army retreats, then Yuan Shu's army in the battle in Yuzhou will definitely retreat, and at that time, Cao Cao will be completely relieved, and he will not let us go back to Xuzhou." At that time, the tiger and wolf army of 100,000 Cao troops will divide our army and fight without leaving a drop of blood. And even if our army successfully returned to Xuzhou, then in the face of Cao Cao's army's retaliation, our army would not have the strength to resist. Therefore, the Youzhou soldiers cannot be withdrawn. ”

Liu Bei listened to the analysis of Chen Deng's mansion, and couldn't help but be shocked, and asked repeatedly: "What is the strategy of the military advisor to prevent the Youzhou soldiers from withdrawing to Youzhou." ”

Chen Deng made a gesture to wipe his neck, Liu Bei first wanted to refuse, but then acquiesced.

The mysterious death of Tian Kai, the commander of the Youzhou soldiers, made the Youzhou soldiers in an uproar. At this moment, on the one hand, Liu Bei came out to be a good man and appeased the Youzhou soldiers, on the other hand, he asked people to send a message that Tian Kai was sent by Cao Jun's assassins to assassinate him, and of course Gongsun Zhan's letter for help was also collected by Liu Bei.

Liu Bei has always been a gentle elder in the eyes of Youzhou soldiers, and this time he soothed people's hearts, so that Youzhou soldiers quickly returned to normal.

"Xuande Gong, the last general is willing to lead the soldiers and horses of the headquarters to avenge General Tian Kai." A white-robed young general asked Liu Bei for battle. This person is Zhao Yun, the object of Liu Bei's great efforts. In addition to Zhao Yun, many soldiers of Youzhou also came to ask Liu Bei to fight, but they were rejected by Liu Bei without accident.

"Zilong, I know your intentions, but people can't be resurrected after death, and General Tian Kai doesn't want to kill the soldiers of the Youzhou Army for him." Liu Bei said with relief.

"Xuande Gong, please let me fight Cao Jun." Zhao Yun's attitude was very resolute, which made Liu Bei a little unable to get off the stage.

"Zilong, you know ...... too"

"Xuande Gong, Zhao Yun please fight." Before Liu Bei finished speaking,. Zhao Yun said that again.

Zhao Yun's move made Liu Bei very annoyed, and he brushed his sleeves and said: "After losing General Tian Kai, the morale of the current Youzhou soldiers is not as good as you imagined, if you want to take your own soldiers and horses to the battle, then I won't stop you." ”

"Thank you, General." Zhao Yun's face showed joy, and he led his headquarters soldiers and horses to the battle.
