Chapter 115: Armageddon in the North Begins

When Yuan Shao sent 100,000 soldiers and horses to rescue Cao Cao, the pressure on Gongsun Zhan, who was stationed in Yijing, was lightened. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info originally Gongsun Chan planned to build Yijing City Tower with the danger of Yi Shui to resist the attack of Yuan Shao's army, and now Yuan's army has been divided into one-third, and under Yijing City, Yuan Shao's strength has been close to Gongsun Zhan.

With this kind of thought, Gongsun Zhan's construction progress of Yijing City Tower gradually slowed down.

Gongsun Zhan's military advisor Guan Jing suggested to him: "My lord, now Yuan Shao's army has less than 150,000 soldiers and horses left in Yijing City, and our army is no less than 80,000 people in Yijing alone, if you gather the soldiers and horses of Youzhou again, then the strength of our army will reach 160,000, our army has been fighting with foreign races for many years, and most of the soldiers are brave warriors. ”

For Guan Jing's suggestion, Gongsun Zhan still agrees very much, he took Qingzhou that year, and his power once became a prince like Dong Zhuo back then. But when he was complacent and wanted to take Jizhou and really become the first prince in the world, he was defeated by Yuan Shao at the boundary bridge, and half of his white horse Yicong was annihilated in this battle, and his own strength was also greatly damaged. Later, although Gongsun Chan re-selected the White Horse Righteous Servant from the army, the strength of the White Horse Righteous Servant was not as good as that year. Over the years, Gongsun Zan has made many mistakes, so that he has been pressed by Yuan Shao, and Guan Jing's suggestion this time is very much in line with his wishes.

Gongsun Zhan nodded and said: "What the military advisor said is reasonable, but I am afraid that our army alone may not be able to defeat all of Yuan Shao's army, if we can ask for help from the Montenegrin army in the annexed state, so that all the 100,000 people of the Montenegrin army join the battle, then this battle will be nine out of ten." ”

Guan Jing chuckled and said: "If there is the help of the Black Mountain Army, then our army will definitely be able to defeat Yuan Shao in one battle, and then unify the land of HB, and at that time, the general will definitely be able to achieve hegemony." ”

Listening to Guan Jing's words, Gongsun Zhan was a little fluttering, if he could win HB, then he would be the real number one prince in the world.

"Pass the order, order all the soldiers and horses stationed in the counties of Beiping to gather in Yijing, and recruit new soldiers in each county, this time I will gather 200,000 troops to fight a decisive battle with Yuan Shao."

When Guan Jing heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised, Youzhou now has about 200,000 soldiers and horses, Guan Jing originally suggested to Gongsun Zhan that there is a limit to the transfer of soldiers and horses, at least barely maintaining the power to resist the alien races in the north, but Gongsun Chan wants to transfer all the Youzhou soldiers and horses to fight a decisive battle with Yuan Shao, this method is tantamount to giving up his rear to the alien race in the north.

"Lord, if our army does not leave a certain number of soldiers and horses in the rear, the Wuhuan and other northern alien races in the rear of our army are afraid that they will ......."

As soon as Guan Jing's words came out, Gongsun Zhan's face showed displeasure.

"Military division, this is a battle of life and death for our army, if you don't do your best, then how can you defeat Yuan Shaojun in a battle. Besides, the alien races in the north have already been terrified by me, and I expect that they will not dare to send troops, even if they send troops to attack the rear of our army, as long as we can break Yuan Shao's main force, then why fear these alien races. ”

Gongsun Zhan's attitude was very resolute, so that Guan Jing no longer dared to make suggestions.

Under the city of Yijing, Yuan Shao's military camp. When he knew that Gongsun Zhan had stopped building the Yijing City Tower and gathered all the soldiers and horses to rush in the direction of Yijing, he almost jumped up excitedly. Because as early as a few days ago, his military advisor Tian Feng analyzed to him Gongsun Zhan's intention to slow down the construction of Yijing City Tower, and suggested that Yuan Shao transfer troops and horses from Jizhou, Qingzhou and Bingzhou, and even the soldiers and horses stationed in Liyang to assist Cao Cao were secretly transferred.

As for if Cao Cao couldn't withstand the pressure and was defeated, Tian Feng just said that.

"If the lord can take the land of HB and unify the north, then who else can be the enemy of the princes in the world, and Cao Cao is extremely ambitious, and it is also a good thing for the lord to be defeated and die earlier."

For Tian Feng, Yuan Shao is still very respectful, he followed Tian Feng's advice, secretly transferred his own soldiers and horses stationed in various places, now there are only 150,000 soldiers and horses under the city of Yijing, but in Gaoyang and Renqiu there are nearly 200,000 Yuan army main force, this time Yuan Shao took out all his family resources.

When the soldiers and horses were secretly assembled, Yuan Shao's other military advisor was frustrated and offered advice.

Frustrated: "Gongsun Chan will not fight with our army alone this time, and will inevitably pull Zhang Yan of the Montenegrin Army, Zhang Yan and our army are also on the same footing, this time they will definitely agree to Gongsun Zhan's request, if they bury an ambush on the road of the Montenegrin Army, then our army will not only be able to defeat our army's northern enemy Gongsun Chan, but also eliminate the trouble of the Montenegrin Army." ”

When Yuan Shao asked who could go and defeat the Black Mountain Army, Fu Zhi suggested one person to Yuan Shao, that is, Ju Yi, a general who was waiting to be seen because he offended Yuan Shao. After Yuan Shao was defeated at the Tiger Prison Pass, the arrogance in his bones also decreased a lot, so that the general who was executed by Yuan Shao in the official history escaped with his life.

"Pass the order, let the general Ju Yi lead 30,000 elites to ambush the reinforcements of the Montenegrin army."

As soon as Yuan Shao's order came out, Xu You, one of Yuan Shao's three major military divisions, came to Yuan Shao's camp to offer advice.

"My lord, now Gongsun Chan has sent troops and horses to Yijing, if our army can make friends with the foreign Maodun with money and property, so that he can attack Gongsun Zhan's rear, then the soldiers and horses stationed in Yijing will inevitably be in chaos. You must know that their parents, wives and children are all in the rear of Youzhou. ”

Xu You's strategy made Yuan Shao stunned, and immediately sent envoys to show goodwill to Mao Dun and other northern tribal leaders.

On the side of the Montenegrin Army, looking at Gongsun Zhan's alliance letter, he immediately agreed, because over the years, he was born in the Yellow Turban and was suppressed by Yuan Shao and cowered in the mountains.

This time, Zhang Yan personally led the main force of the 90,000 Montenegrin Army to Yijing. Zhang Yan worked hard, except for those soldiers and horses that he really couldn't bring, he almost came out of the nest.

Zhang Yan's march was very fast, and he approached Yishui in just two days, which made Gongsun Zhan, who was stationed in Yijing, very happy. He sent his son Gongsun Xu to lead his soldiers and horses to make peace with Zhang Yan.

Gongsun Xu was very respectful to Zhang Yan, which made Zhang Yan very useful.

Next to Yi Shui, the general Ju Yi did not go to the ambush according to the original ambush location, but formed a formation in Yi Shui, preparing to defeat Zhang Yan's soldiers and horses head-on. Ju Yi is arrogant, otherwise he would not be so unpopular with Yuan Shao.

In Ju Yi's heart, the first camp he trained was invincible, and he brought his three thousand first camp soldiers with him on this expedition, and if even Zhang Yan's tens of thousands of low-equipped rabble could not be defeated, then how could he Ju Yi overpower Yan Liangwen Chou and become Yuan Shao's first general.
