Dozens of miles outside the city of Guangzong, the boundary bridge covers the sky and the sun, the battle armor and swords are cloudy, and the people are boiling and the horses are neighing.

Yuan Shao's army of 50,000 and Gongsun Zhan's hundreds of thousands of horses were all laid out on this vast territory, densely spread on both sides, the Chu River and the Han border, and the distinct distinction between the two sides.

With a drum, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan met each other. Yuan Shao first asked Gongsun Fan to be put on the throne and humiliated him in front of Gongsun Zhan. Gongsun Zhan asked for someone, but Yuan Shao naturally didn't give it, and the two couldn't talk to each other, so they had to meet each other.

The Battle of the Boundary Bridge between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Chan was the first major civil war between the generals of the Kwantung Rebellion since Dong Zhuo's Rebellion, and the two sides invested a total of nearly 200,000 troops.

However, this battle was different from the familiar history, Yuan Shao used the first camp of Koyi and changed to his henchmen Wen Chou, Yan Liang and others. In the arrangement, Yuan Shaozhen guarded the central army, Wen Chou and Yan Liang were the front and rear forwards, and Zhang He and Gao Ran were the left and right wings. In order to express his determination to fight with Gongsun Zan this time, Yuan Shao even divided the Yuanmen battalion of his own soldiers and guarded it separately, and let his nephew Gao Gan lead him to serve in the Chinese army, and he only left a hundred halberds led by Sima Han Meng of Yuanmen.

Of course, Yuan Shao is not blindly brute, he is also very clear that although Gongsun Chan has an advantage in numbers, most of Gongsun Chan's men and horses are still incorporated from the Yellow Turban captured in Dongguang World War, so it is naturally difficult to guarantee combat effectiveness.

In the past, Yuan Shao was afraid that Chen Nuo would make great contributions again, so he transferred him back to the rear and did not give him the opportunity to make meritorious contributions. It's just because Chen Nuo not only completed the task brilliantly this time, but also captured Gongsun Fan with his own hands, which can be regarded as a great achievement. Besides, before deciding to start a big war with Gongsun Zhan, Yuan Shao had also had a brief contact with Gongsun Zhan, and after several battles, he also knew that Gongsun Chan was not muddy, and this battle was very important, so he could not be careless, so he intended to use Chen Nuo again.

Chen Nuo then took the opportunity to ask Yuan Shao to reuse Koji Yi and transfer Koji Yi from Quzhou back to Guangzong.

For Koji Yi, Yuan Shao loves and hates. Originally, Yuan Shao attached great importance to Lu Yi and the team he led, and wanted to reuse this person. It's just that Lu Yi got close to Chen Nuo, and formed a brother in life and death with Chen Nuo, plus his identity was quite embarrassing, and Yuan Shao was afraid of him at this critical moment, so he intended to suppress Lu Yi. Now Liyi's men and horses were almost taken by Wen Chou, and the amount could not threaten Yuan Shao, so he listened to Chen Nuo's advice and summoned Liyi back from Quzhou, but did not buy him more people, and only let Liyi obey the orders of the army.

In this battle of the boundary bridge, although Yuan Shao used Chen Nuo and Liyi, Yuan Shao did not send them to the front line, but only let the two of them lead the men and horses of the headquarters to cruise around the periphery, acting as rangers, obviously not wanting to give them the opportunity to make meritorious contributions.

Chen Nuo didn't think so, but was faintly worried in his heart. Before this battle was fought, Yuan Shao had already underestimated the enemy, and he was afraid that he would be defeated. And if Yuan Shao is defeated, Jizhou will inevitably not be guaranteed, so he and Guo Jia's 'Longzhong pair' in Yecheng will not be in vain, so he is quite worried. If Gongsun Chan wins Jizhou, he is afraid that it will be difficult for him to gain a foothold in Jizhou again, and how can he continue to maintain hope at all? Therefore, in Chen Nuo's view, in the battle of the boundary bridge, Yuan Shao can only win but not lose. At the very least, at present, it should be ensured that Yuan Shao is based in Jizhou and forms a balanced trend with Gongsun Zhan's Youzhou, so it is more in line with Chen Nuo's interests.

Chen Nuo was worried about defeat before he fought, he glanced at Lu Yi, and he already had a plan in his heart.

Although Koji Yi was unwilling for a while, he was a long-term general after all, and he had rich experience in leading troops, and he was not afraid of death in battle. It's a pity that all the elite people in his hands have been taken away by Wen Chou, and now there are less than 100 people, and they will definitely not work. And if Koji Yi can make meritorious contributions in this battle, then it will be absolutely beneficial and harmless for him Chen Nuo, what Koji lacks now, except for opportunities, only soldiers.

Chen Nuo had 3,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and immediately selected more than 1,000 people from his own people and handed them over to Lu Yi to lead. Before Ko Yi understood for a while, Chen Nuo immediately whispered a few words to him and asked him to quietly lead his troops to the east to ambush. Although Koji Yi was confused, since the eldest brother Chen Nuo said so, he didn't say a word, and nodded in agreement. Chen Nuo lent the general Zhu Ling to him and went with Lu Yi.

As soon as Ko Yi walked here, Chen Nuo sat on horseback gracefully, listening to the continuous reports of the battle situation on the other side of the boundary bridge at any time. Yuan Shao asked him to be a ranger, nothing more than to teach him to lead troops to reconnoiter left and right, to prevent Gongsun Zan from sending a partial division to attack Guangzong from his way, so no matter how hot the fight was on the Jieqiao side, it seemed that it had nothing to do with him, but he could temporarily recuperate and wait for the time to come.

It's just that he was ordered to send troops this time, knowing that this battle is uncertain, so he deliberately left two or three hundred men and horses for Zhao Xue, and let Zhao Xue stay in the Guangzong camp to garrison.

The battle between Gongsun Chan and Yuan Shao lasted from morning to afternoon, and both sides suffered heavy casualties. In the morning, Gongsun Zhan took the Qingzhou Yellow Turban as the front, which was broken by Yuan Shao's generals Wen Chou and Yan Liang's army, and Yuan Shao's army was greatly boosted. But in the afternoon, Gongsun Chan sent Youzhou infantry to join the battlefield, and the two sides immediately fell into a bitter battle. Yuan Shao's elites were originally in the front, and their strength in the first battle in the morning was somewhat depleted, and by the time Gongsun Chan sent the elites to kill, Wen Chou, Yan Liang and others had already become tired divisions, and they were in a stalemate for a while.

Fortunately, the two armies of Zhang He and Gao Ran on the left and right flanks broke through from the periphery, which somewhat hit Gongsun Zhan's morale. But Gongsun Zhan was obviously not discouraged, and at this time, he asked the general Zou Dan and other superseers to engage in the battle. Gongsun Chan's dispatch like this is like playing a wheel war with Yuan Shao, and he immediately made up for the defeat in front and then made up for it, slowly increasing his troops, so that Gongsun Zhan's advantage in numbers was immediately obvious. And Yuan Shao, seeing that the front was suffering serious losses, had to let his nephew Gao Gan lead the Yuanmen battalion to join the battlefield and fight with Gongsun Zhan.

Yuan Shao temporarily transferred the Yuanmen battalion to the battlefield of the Chinese army, and no one took it seriously, even the senior cadres thought that it was useless, but it was just a means for Yuan Shao to motivate the soldiers. But now, Yuan Shao can't care about this, and in order to motivate the soldiers, he has to let the senior cadres personally supervise the killing of the Yuanmen camp. The Yuanmen battalion is Yuan Shao's direct line, and it is also a personal guard, which should be closely protected by Yuan Shao, even if the battle situation is fierce, it cannot be easily sent to the battlefield, Yuan Shao is naturally forced to do this.

Of course, with the addition of Yuan Shao's personal guard Yuanmen battalion, it was obvious that the morale on the battlefield was suddenly boosted, and Gongsun Zhan's side also obviously felt the pressure. Gongsun Zhan is looking at the battlefield, he has been concerned about one thing, where is Chen Nuo? Why didn't he show up all the time?

Ago, when he heard that Chen Nuo was returned to Yecheng by Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zhan laughed at that time, thinking that Yuan Shao did not have Chen Nuo here, he didn't have to worry, Yuan Shao would be ruined. However, as the news of his younger brother Sun Fan being captured alive by Chen Nuo reached his ears, he was immediately shocked. Not because he was arrested from his younger brother Sun Fan, but because Chen Nuo came back and showed such a hand. At the beginning of the Battle of the Boundary Bridge, he had been worried, if Yuan Shao used Chen Nuo as the striker, how would he deal with it?

Although Gongsun Chan was defeated by Guangchuan and his White Horse Yicong was also devastated because of this, he still had some illusions after learning that Chen Nuo was transferred. In the end, his Youzhou soldiers have the advantage of cavalry, and it is impossible for him to stop charging because of the fiasco of the White Horse Yicong, not to mention that the sluggishness of the White Horse Yicong is precisely because of the shadow of Guangchuan's defeat, if he can pull back for a while, maybe he can revive the White Horse Yicong again, so when he first heard that Chen Nuo was returning to Ye, he intended to personally supervise the White Horse Yicong to kill this first formation.

But the situation has changed, Chen Nuo suddenly rushed back from Yecheng, and made another contribution, but I am afraid that Yuan Shao will reuse Chen Nuo again. For this reason, Gongsun Chan had to reconsider the deployment of troops, he didn't want to repeat the mistake of the Battle of Guangchuan, and he couldn't afford to lose at all. Gongsun Zhan weighed it again and again, and for the sake of stability, he had to decide to use the incorporated Yellow Turban Army as the front, let them waste the other party first, and then kill his Youzhou headquarters into it, so he didn't believe that he couldn't defeat Chen Nuo.

But Gongsun Chan didn't expect that the war had been going on until now, and Chen Nuo had never shown any signs. In this way, Yuan Shao may really want to abandon Chen Nuo. However, Yuan Shao's use of Chen Nuo is a great advantage to Gongsun Zhan, isn't it exactly what he likes to see in Gongsun Zhan? Since it was certain that Chen Nuo would not appear, Gongsun Chan also had no worries, and his ambition slowly grew. Since Bai Ma Yicong is planted in his hands, then he can get up again, if he can win for a while this time, why worry that Bai Ma Yi can never be revived?

Gongsun Chan was full of confidence, glanced at the two thousand horsemen behind him, and with a move of his hand, the war drums immediately rumbled.

In the battle of Guangchuan, Baima Yicong suffered heavy losses, although Gongsun Chan deliberately transferred some men and horses from other cavalry departments to supplement the department, but it was difficult to restore the old situation. Not to mention the sluggish morale and the inferiority in the number of men and horses, it is not difficult to see from the mounts under their crotches that although they are still mostly white, they are mixed with all colors, and there is no longer the majesty of the original three thousand horses.

But Gongsun Chan doesn't care, what he wants is an unyielding fighting spirit, as long as he has the opportunity, he must not watch the white horse righteousness he built with his own hands disappear.

With a drum stop, Gongsun Zhan raised the double-headed iron spear in his hand and shouted, and two thousand horsemen followed him like water, and roared into the battlefield. And Yuan Shao, the little morale that had just risen, was joined by the other party's white horse Yicong, and he was suddenly suppressed back, trampled by the iron horse, and the miserable screams intensified.

Gongsun Zhan came this time and came to the enemy formation in person, and the war horses behind him charged into battle with the boss, which did make them slowly regain their original feeling, the deeper the enemy, the more morale they wanted, and the combat effectiveness naturally rose.

Gongsun Zan is reckless here, but Yuan Shao's momentum is not good, and the defeat is beginning to show. When the news was reported to Chen Nuo, Chen Nuo frowned, and tightened the reins in his hand, it seemed that it was time for him to make a move!
