70. The sound of the east strikes the west

Swords and guns are like forests, flags are like seas, and shouting and killing are like tides.

The situation on the battlefield has fallen into chaos, Dongjun Taishou Liu Yan is obviously a person who knows the soldiers, in the face of the fierce attack of the famous general Yan Liang in Hebei, the White Horse defenders were able to maintain their positions, step by step counterattack, not only held the White Horse Battalion, but also caused a lot of casualties to the Hebei Army.

Inside and outside the wall, there were dead corpses, bleeding and drifting, like a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

Chun Yuqiong saw that the war was unfavorable, and she was very anxious, and this eighty percent was about to fall short. Chun Yuqiong couldn't accept such a result, and he was already red-eyed at this time. And this is exactly what Yan Liang wants to see.

I saw that in the Hebei army array, Chun Yuqiong, who was wearing a helmet and armor, raised the big iron gun in his hand and shouted: "Soldiers, follow me!" ”

As he spoke, Chun Yuqiong was already moving forward with a gun.

Under the encouragement of Chun Yuqiong, a general, countless sword and shield soldiers and crossbowmen rushed forward like a swarm, fearless of life and death, and shouted to the sky.

After the battle, Yan Liang, who was immediately swordsman, couldn't help but be slightly moved when he saw this scene.

Although the camps are different and the positions are different, as a martial artist, Chun Yuqiong is still worthy of respect. Chun Yuqiong is obviously not a wine bag and rice bag, although Yuan Shao does not know how to use people, but the ability to recognize people is indeed not said. Chun Yuqiong can occupy a high position in Hebei, which is full of talents, and obviously has his ability.

Chun Yuqiong's lead quickly opened up the situation on the wall.

Liu Yan looked at the deteriorating situation, and his eyes were split. In desperation, Liu Yan waved the order flag in his hand. With the swing of the red flag, the sound of whining breaking the air sounded over the wall.

When the soldiers looked up, they only saw one stone bullet after another slashing through the air and smashing into the Hebei soldiers outside the wall.

Since Sun Ce of Eastern Wu first used trebuchets, this simple and practical machine soon spread in the north and south of the Great River, up and down the Yellow River. Especially in Hebei and the Central Plains, there were many craftsmen, and the two armies produced a large number of trebuchets.

Originally, Liu Yan didn't plan to use the trebuchet that had been hidden for a long time now, but the strength of the Hebei army was obviously a bit unexpected. Yan Liang's fierce attack today had to make Liu Yan come up with his killer weapon in advance.

The stone bullets in the air flew out with a whining sound, and soon smashed a gap in the Hebei army formation.

A large number of soldiers were unfortunately hit by stone bullets, and a panic began to spread.

Yan Liang finally frowned, this Dongjun guards Liu Yan too much, his reputation is not obvious, but his ability is not small, which is really beyond Yan Liang's expectations.

In order to respond to Chun Yuqiong's attack, Yan Liang had already ordered the spearmen to step forward, and the tips of the guns like a forest flashed with cold light, pointing directly at the White Horse camp. However, the unexpected trebuchet caused heavy losses to the spearmen. After the ironclad spearmen formed a formation, they could even resist the charge of the light cavalry, but they had no way to face the stone bullets falling from the sky.

In desperation, Yan Liang had no choice but to frown, slowly open his mouth, and ordered: "Mingjin retreats!" ”

The sound of Ming Jin sounded, and Chun Yuqiong, who rushed to kill in front, was also relieved. If Yan Liang wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of him, this would obviously be a good opportunity, but Yan Liang was still a decent man and a gentleman, and he couldn't do such a private thing.

With the sound of gold, the Hebei sergeants retreated like a tide.

Yan Liang turned his horse back a little helplessly, and outside the gate, looking at the ranks of soldiers slowly entering the camp, Yan Liang could only sigh.

"Princess, ask the lord for help, and ask the lord to deploy some trebuchets over!" Yan Liang said slowly, without even glancing at Guo Tu beside him.

As a veteran general in the army, Yan Liang certainly knew that if he wanted to deal with Liu Yan's trebuchet, he could only use a trebuchet.

Guo Tu didn't care much about Yan Liang's attitude, all he cared about was victory. As long as he wins, his share of credit is naturally indispensable. But if they are defeated, none of them will have good fruit to eat!

Yan Liang's side stopped attacking for a while, just waiting for Yuan Shao to transfer trebuchets from Liyang. No one knew that Yan Liang at this time was guarding against Cao Cao's sneak attack. Yan Liang took out five hundred elites as scouts from the thousands of cavalry under his command, and spilled nearly a hundred miles in the direction of Guandu, keeping an eye on the movements of Cao's army at any time.

And in the camp of Cao Jun, how to rescue the white horse is also being discussed.

In the big tent, Cao Cao was dressed in armor, with an iron helmet on the desk, holding the table with both hands, and said in a deep voice: "Dongjun is too guarded by Liu Yan, and he has been besieged in Baima for more than half a month, and now I have received more than a dozen letters from Liu Yan asking for help, what do you think should I do?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Dong Zhao said: "My lord, the white horse is an important part of our army's defense line, and there is no room for error. Once the white horse misses, the main force of our army in Guandu will be threatened by the flanks, so troops must be sent to rescue! ”

Cao Cao nodded and said slowly: "What Gongren said is very true, but our army is not as strong as Yuan Shao, how to rescue?" ”

When Dong Zhao heard this, he was silent.

Cao Cao saw that everyone in the tent was speechless, and he was immediately a little disappointed.

At this time, I saw Xun You coming out and said: "Lord, I have a plan to rescue the white horse!" ”

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he saw this, and said with a smile: "Gongda, come quickly!" ”

Xun You smiled slightly, and said, "You can save it by attacking the east and the west." After a pause, Xun Youcai said slowly: "Our army can go to Yanjin in a big way, pretending to cross the river and attack Yuan Shao's rear. I expect that Yuan Shao will inevitably divide his troops to the west and intercept our army. In this way, our army can send the elite to the east of the white horse and attack Yan Liang, and it will definitely succeed in one fell swoop! ”

"That's a good plan!" When Cao Cao heard this, he couldn't help but nod and praised.

After making a plan, Cao Cao immediately led the army and went to Yanjin. The Yanjin guard general is Cao Cao's subordinate Ai Jiang, and Yu Ban guards the entire Yanjin airtightly, and Yuan Shao's Hebei army can't take advantage of it at all.

On this day, Yuan Shao got the news that there were tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the Guandu camp and headed for Yanjin. In the army, Cao Cao's handsome banner must be Cao Cao personally leading the troops.

This time, Cao Cao went on the expedition, including Xiahou Yuan, Cao Chun, Le Jin, Han Hao, Shi Lian, Xu Chu, Xu Huang, Zhu Ling and other generals. Cao Ren led the army to stay in the camp to ensure the safety of the rear of Cao's army.

The movement of tens of thousands of troops is naturally not small.

Yuan Shao, who had been paying close attention to the movements of the Cao army, immediately sent the general Jiang Yiqu as the main general, and the brothers Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang as the auxiliary to lead an army of 50,000 to Yanjin to intercept the Cao army.

But Yuan Shao didn't know that Cao Cao at this time had already led Cao Chun, Xu Huang, Xu Chu, Shi Jian and other fierce generals, under the protection of 10,000 tigers and leopards, to attack the white horse.

Yan Liang, who was in charge of the White Horse, had already sent a large number of scouts to search for news of Guandu.

When he learned that Cao Cao was leading his army to Yanjin, Yan Liang's whole person became nervous. Could it be, as the news goes, to be true? Cao Cao is just attacking the west, and his target is exactly the white horse where he is?

Yan Liang had to make a series of countermeasures, and now he only has more than 20,000 soldiers and horses left, so he can't be careless.
