Chapter 102: Breaking the White Horse Again
The encirclement quickly broke through under the joint attack of Chen Nuo and Zhang He, and it was rare to have such a tacit understanding, and the two of them looked at each other and laughed when they came out of the encirclement.
Under the city of Wucheng, Chen Nuo was ordered by Yuan Shao to recruit Zhang He, and Zhang He said, "If it is really what you mean, Brother Ran, I Zhang He is willing to surrender!" Chen Nuo affirmed that Zhang He was used by Yuan Shao to guard Wucheng as a captain. Last year, Chen Nuo was ordered to go to Guangchuan, before leaving had met with Zhang He, and then returned to Guangzong, Zhang He was still stationed in Wucheng, Chen Nuo then recommended Zhang He to Yuan Shao, let Zhang He lead troops to Guangzong to participate in the war, and the two of them met for the first time since last year's farewell.
It's just that now after all, it is on the battlefield, and the two of them don't have time to chat, and after a while, they see a lot of smoke and dust on the opposite side, and it turns out that it is two thousand white horses led by Gongsun Zan himself.
Zhang He saw it from a distance, and pointed his gun at a distance: "I heard that in the battle of Guangchuan, Brother Ran broke Gongsun Zhan's 3,000 fine cavalry with less than 1,000 infantry, and after this battle, Bai Ma Yi was in a slump, and it was the cavalry in front of him who fought against Brother Ran that day?" ”
Chen Nuo glanced at it and said with a smile: "Exactly!" However, it is no longer the white horse of the past, although there are defeats, but it cannot be underestimated, but if General Zhang and you and I join forces, this achievement is not difficult! ”
Zhang He already wanted to see the legendary white horse, although this white horse is no longer the other white horse, but if he can join forces with Chen Nuo to defeat this elite horse, not to mention the merit, it will also be beneficial for him to lead the troops to fight in the future, which is a rare opportunity to train the troops.
Zhang He smiled and said, "If you can fight the enemy together with Brother Ran, you can do what you want!" ”
The rumbling horses' hooves gradually approached this side, and Chen Nuo had already rushed forward with Zhang He with men and horses, occupying the sunny place first, and when Gongsun Zhan led the elite cavalry to rush over, Chen Nuo had simply arranged a roadblock on the road. The barricades were just to slow down the speed of Gongsun Zhan's cavalry a little, and they didn't want to stop them easily. But it was precisely because of this barricade that Chen Nuo calmly arranged the crossbowmen, ordered the crossbowmen to attack the cavalry with arrows, and stabbed the infantry who followed behind with spears, temporarily stabilizing the position.
And the cavalry, which had won by the force of the impact, could not advance after suddenly encountering obstacles, and the men and horses behind were blocked, and no matter how great the advantage was, it was lost. Of course, Chen Nuo would not miss the opportunity, and beckoned the men and horses to rush down to kill as much as they wanted, and at the same time, in order to shock people's hearts, he shouted: "Chen Nuo, the captain of a certain Ye, do you still remember the battle of Guangchuan?" ”
Although the composition of today's White Horse Yicong is a bit messy, the original team still accounts for most of them, for the battle of Guangchuan, for Chen Nuo, I am afraid that no one knows better than them, and it is more unforgettable. It was a kind of fear emanating from the bones, trembling, like a child hearing a wolf howl in the middle of the night, and the color of the smell changed.
Now, the sudden appearance of Chen Nuo, the winner of the Battle of Guangchuan, made them feel embarrassed by the defeated generals of their former subordinates? Hearing about the battle of Guangchuan, hearing that Chen Nuo was here, the shadow in his heart once again shrouded his whole body, and he was like thunder when he heard it, and he was already timid if he didn't fight.
The so-called Battle of Guangchuan caused Hakuma Yoshi's 'collapse' is not a simple sentence, but more of a sense of fear emanating from the heart. This sense of fear accumulates over time, and it is not easy to dissipate, if it is not handled properly, I am afraid that the white horse righteousness will be abolished.
And Gongsun Zhan, eager to increase the confidence of the White Horse Yicong with a victory, is precisely for this reason. Gongsun Chan thinks so, but whether it can be realized or not, can only be said to wait and see.
At this critical juncture, Chen Nuo reported his name, and mentioned the Battle of Guangchuan a month ago, these Bai Ma Yi, who had not yet come out of the shadows in the Battle of Guangchuan, naturally heard that he was frightened and inexplicable, and he was already timid if he didn't fight. This mood was very bad, and once it affected the entire cavalry ranks, it was like a plague, which made the unwitting cavalry also cowardly. Coupled with the hard work of Chen Nuo and Zhang He, these cavalry soon lost their combat effectiveness, and although they were urged to fight by Gongsun Zhan, they still couldn't help.
"General, let's go, the cavalry is almost over!"
What's worse is that the front rushed ahead, and the back was cut off here, and the lord Sun Chan personally supervised the army here, since the cavalry was not good, he could only persuade Gongsun Chan to temporarily endure and retreat.
Gongsun Zhan's eyes were bloodshot, and he couldn't kill him personally. He is really unwilling, this 'White Horse Righteous Servant', which was finally re-formed, originally thought that he could 'rise' again in this battle, but now it seems that he is afraid that it will really be 'slumped' from now on.
And this defeat seems to be as good as the defeat of Hirokawa.
The battle of Guangchuan is still left with some men and horses to go back, this time, the cavalry is scattered, more than half of the two thousand horsemen have been killed, and now there are only a few hundred people left. Gongsun Chan shouted, gritted his teeth, raised the double-headed iron spear in his hand, and was about to raise the reins and rush to kill. The soldiers behind him immediately stepped forward to stop Gongsun Zhan, and persuaded him in every possible way, but Gongsun Zhan just took the reins and turned around with hatred.
Less than 200 cavalry fled with Gongsun Zhan, and the rest of the cavalry were wrapped in the battlefield, trying to bind Chen Nuo and Zhang He.
Gongsun Zhan's cavalry was intercepted, and the news was reported to the ears of his subordinate Yan Gang, who immediately led the troops back to kill. It's just that he didn't wait for him to come, Gongsun Chan was already defeated, and in front of him was Chen Nuo's people, he also knew that Chen Nuo was powerful, but in order to help Gongsun Chan get out of trouble, he had to encourage the monarchs to rush up and kill.
Yan Gang's assassination of Jizhou was not long ago, and it was appointed by Gongsun Zan after he won Guangchuan. The rest of the generals, such as Shan Jing for the Yanzhou Assassin History, Tian Kai for the Qingzhou Assassin History, after these people were appointed, except for Yan Gang who continued to follow Gongsun Zhan, that is, they went to Qingzhou and Yan'er Prefecture to take office, so they were not by Gongsun Zhan's side.
Gongsun Chan led the cavalry to a great defeat, and there were not many people and horses around him, so such a great opportunity for meritorious service could not be missed. If you catch up at this time, you will be able to make a great achievement. It's just that Yan Gang happened to lead people to kill at this time, but he was afraid that he would not be able to chase and kill. Zhang He naturally understood the key, and immediately discussed with Chen Nuo, asking Chen Nuo to take the people of his headquarters to chase Gongsun Zhan, and he led the headquarters to stop Yan Gang and others.
Zhang He's subordinates have lost a lot after a lot of fighting, and Yan Gang has a lot of men and horses, Chen Nuo was afraid that Zhang He would not be able to get his way, so he gave him seven or eight hundred from his more than 1,000 people, and only let Dian Wei follow him, and only brought three hundred cavalry to chase after him.
Zhang He still wanted to disagree, but Chen Nuo had already ridden away, so he could only accept it.
Gongsun Zhan's cavalry ran out in front for a while, and at first he didn't see the pursuers, but it didn't take long for the rumbling of horses' hooves behind him, followed by the constant appearance of black shadows. After all, the morale of the cavalry behind Gongsun Zhan was not good, and it was Chen Nuo who was chasing, so he had no confidence in his heart, although he barely ran out for a while, but he also knew that the distance between the two sides was constantly narrowing, and he was afraid that it would not be long before Chen Nuo's troops would catch up, and then he was afraid that he would inevitably fight.
It's just that after thinking about it, how could he be afraid of a fledgling kid who was bullied by him to this point today and didn't want to forge ahead, how could he continue to let him be bullied? Thinking of this, Gongsun Chan pulled the horse violently, let out a sound in his throat, turned the horse around, and ordered the cavalry not to run anymore, and stopped him.
There were only two hundred cavalry behind him, and although the other party's pursuers did not seem to be much, they were by no means less than them, and the other party's leading general was their old enemy Chen Nuo, who was already afraid in his heart, and he couldn't wait to have wings. Isn't it a joke to stop and wait for a thief at this critical juncture?
Those pro-soldiers still wanted to persuade them, but Gongsun Chan had already made up his mind, so he didn't dare to disobey Gongsun Chan's intentions anymore, and the cavalry lined up and blocked the avenue.
Gongsun Zhan's eyebrows were raised, the double-headed iron spear was firmly pinched in his palm, looking at the cavalry rushing on the opposite side, although the fear in his heart was faintly rising, but the blood in his bones was still undiminished, since he had made up his mind to face Chen Nuo, he could no longer have the slightest fear.
Fortunately, these two hundred horsemen who followed were all Gongsun Zhan's henchmen, and they were absolutely loyal to Gongsun Zhan, although they were afraid of these Chen Nuo cavalry who were about to gallop in their hearts, but the heart of the sworn protector did not defeat their original intention, and no one retreated from beginning to end.
The rumbling sound of horses' hooves gradually approached, and the speed of riding was slowing down accordingly, dozens of zhang in front of Gongsun Zhan's cavalry, Chen Nuo's department, which was chasing after receiving the order, slowly stopped, but the cavalry team was not chaotic, and it was arranged in an orderly manner.
Gongsun Zhan stared at Chen Nuo who came with his eyes, still motionless.
Chen Nuo was quite surprised by Gongsun Zhan's actions, but after thinking about it carefully, it was definitely in line with his character. Although in history, Gongsun Chan and Yuan Shao fought to the end, Gongsun was defeated, and chose to retreat to Yijing to avoid Yuan Shao's soldiers, which was a bit of a negative act, but it was a helpless move for Gongsun Chan to be destroyed after many failures. And at this moment, Gongsun Chan has just gone through the victory of the Dongguang War, and it is the time when the scenery is infinite and the ambition is inflated, how can it be compared with the time, it is not difficult to understand that Gongsun Chan chose to wait for Chen Nuo.
Dian Wei flashed, Chen Nuo stepped forward immediately, raised his eyes and glanced at Gongsun Zhan. Gongsun Zhan was still angry, carrying an iron spear in his hand, with a murderous face. It seems that if he hadn't coveted Dian Wei on his side, he would have rushed up to attack and kill Chen Nuo. He was defeated in the battle of Guangchuan in the hands of Chen Nuo, and now the battle of Jieqiao was defeated because of him, which is really annoying, Gongsun Chan can't hate to pick up Chen Nuo's bones.
Facing the menacing Gongsun Zhan, Chen Nuo was very calm, arched on the horse, and said: "General Gongsun, it's rare for us to meet again, but the young general is in armor, and he can't give full salutes, and I ask the general to forgive the guilt." ”
