Chapter 266: The decisive battle is imminent
Yuan Shao mobilized an army of 800,000 to attack Huguan, as the saying goes, the soldiers and horses go first before the grain and grass are moved. But Yuan Shao felt that his base camp Yecheng was only one hundred and eighty miles away from Huguan, and this distance did not need grain and grass first, just soldiers and horses to follow up with grain and grass first.
Like this 800,000 army, there is too much grain and grass needed, so the grain transportation team stretches for more than ten kilometers.
Since it was a backward line, it needed to be transported overnight to catch up with the food of the soldiers in front, which had to be carried with torches.
Therefore, in the dark night, the grain team with torches shining has become the target of everyone.
The real arrows, the arrows, don't know how many shots are fired for a second. Anyway, where only the firelight was seen, the soldiers of the Yuan army fell to the ground one after another.
In fact, Yuan Shao was also sent out to double insurance, with 100,000 grain guards and his eldest son's headquarters to escort him.
However, in the face of fierce generals such as Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan, Xu Chu, Ma Chao, and Pang De, it seems that Zang Ba, Han Hao, Sun Guan, and Du Pre are not enough to see. As soon as they made contact, they all ran away.
As soon as the soldiers saw that the generals had run away, what were they still left for, they also fled.
With Zhao Yun and Xu Huang killing from the base in the north, Yan Rou and Tian Yu also killed from the waterway in the south. Yuan's army of grain was cut into three sections and was killed.
Yuan Tan was full of heart, and when he saw a figure riding a big red horse appear in the dark night, he couldn't help but run away, and the army didn't care about it.
In this ancient war, it was all about the generals, and the generals rushed forward, and the small soldiers also rushed forward. The general retreated, and it seemed that he could not ask the soldiers to rush forward. Perhaps, he didn't bother to ask the soldiers to rush forward.
Therefore, the Yuan army's grain army was completely defeated, and all the bees ran into the darkness.
There was a cry from the battlefield.
"Surrender the gun and don't kill, the prime minister treats the prisoners preferentially."
But this time it didn't work out so well. The soldiers of Yuan Jun couldn't help shouting: "I can't take the initiative to surrender, my whole family will be killed by Yuan Shao if I surrender!" ”
At the end, the enemy and our soldiers shouted together, "Yuan Shao is too shameless!" "This is truly one of the great spectacles in the history of warfare. However, it can also be seen that far-reaching good governance has won the hearts of the people.
Gao Yuan stopped his horse and waved his hand: "Don't chase!" ”
The 100,000 army thus stopped. Zhao Yun, Xu Huang, Yan Rou, Tian Yu and others came to see.
Gao Yuan said: "The fire is blazing here, Yuan Shao's army will definitely come to the rescue, and in the night, it is not the best time to fight a decisive battle with the superior enemy." ”
So, Gao Yuan ordered, Zhao Yun and Xu Huang temporarily returned to Changshan County, the base area, and waited for a new order. And Yan Rou and Tian Yu also retreated from the same way.
On the other hand, when something happened to the grain transport team. In the distance, the flames were blazing, and the Yuan army camp exploded.
At this time, Yuan Shao, the emperor of the Great Zhou Deren, was sleeping in the inner tent of the imperial tent.
The sound of snoring came, Yuan Shao was very fragrant, he hadn't slept well for more than half a year.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" There was a shout outside.
After Yuan Shao's eyebrows jumped for a while, he woke up and was furious. Before I could start scolding, there was a shouting outside. "Your Majesty, there is a fire in the direction of Yecheng, and it is conservatively estimated that the grain transportation team should be attacked!"
Don't be conservative in your estimation, it must be. When Yuan Shao heard this, his liver and gallbladder were broken. The chest is like a hammer. But I don't know where the power came from, I jumped out of bed, and went straight to the outer tent barefoot.
When the guards saw him come out, they hurriedly lifted the curtain of the outer tent. Therefore, Yuan Shao did not run out of time. I saw the red light in the direction of Yecheng, reflecting half of the sky.
"Oops~!" Yuan Shaohu's body shook and he took three steps back. The illness suppressed by the joy of ascending the throne yesterday exploded instantly, and with a grunt, a mouthful of blood came up. Yuan Shao's red eyes widened, he swallowed back in a daze, and shouted in a jump: "Quickly pass on the frustration and others to come and discuss ......." ”
Half an hour later.
The imperial tent was very depressed, Yuan Xi, Yuan Shang, Jiang Yiqu, Lu Weihuang, Chen Jiao, Dong Zhao, Jiang Gan and others did not dare to breathe, and frowned. And Yuan Shao half leaned on the throne, touching his chest and abdomen back and forth, humming, people who didn't know thought that his stomach hurt. In fact, all these internal organs are painful.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, a large number of adrenal glands were secreted, which made Boss Yuan withstand the condition.
After a while, the news came, and after the messenger came in, he knelt down and trembled: "Your Majesty, General Yan Liang has sent news that all the five thousand grain trucks have been burned, and no trace of the enemy has been found for the time being. ”
Poof~, Yuan Shao finally spurted blood, and the fan went out. Because of the high level, Fu Zhi and the others were sprayed on their faces, and they didn't dare to wipe it, and for a while, the imperial tent had a tendency to develop towards the slaughterhouse.
The little school was frightened, and said in his heart, don't sacrifice me to the flag.
Fu Zhu and the others were also frightened, and Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang immediately rushed up and shouted, "Father! ”
Jiang Gan and the others also went up and shouted, "Your Majesty, the dragon body is superior!" ”
Who knew that Yuan Shao had the spirit, pulled away the ministers, pointed to the small school, opened his big mouth full of blood, and shouted as if he had just finished eating; "Pull out, sacrifice flag, sacrifice flag!"
plopped, and the colonel fainted at that time.
Immediately after, Yuan Shao also fainted, and suddenly screamed.
By the next morning, when Yuan Shao woke up, his army of 800,000 had also begun to go hungry. After all, the grain and grass of these 800,000 people is not something that can be had, and if Yuan Jun wants to mobilize it for the second time, it will be impossible in a short period of time.
Yuan Shao was very weak, lying on the dragon couch and humming, but he still asked, "Where is the boss?" ”
Yuan Xi hurriedly said: "There is no news of the eldest brother yet." ”
Yuan Shang thought about it, that guy dares to show his head now? Those who sacrificed the flag yesterday were not small soldiers.
He sighed for a while, and when he saw that Jiang Gan and the others didn't speak, he immediately walked up and said, "Your Majesty, the soldiers have no food and grass, and the army's spirit is unstable, so it's better to retreat as soon as possible." ”
Yuan Shao was sick, but his mentality was stable, and he said something normal, "If I withdraw from the army, Gao Mengyan will definitely come to chase after me." ”
Frustrated: "Don't be afraid, our army has set up a defensive formation and slowly retreated, not far from Yecheng, although Gao Mengyan has an army of 200,000, he can't shake our army of 700,000." ”
Yuan Shao nodded and said, "This matter will be handed over to Fu Aiqing, and before the soldiers are too hungry, they must retreat to Yecheng." Yuan Xi, Yuan Shang, the two of you, immediately return to Youzhou and Jizhou, requisition and transfer military rations, and transport them to Yecheng. ”
Yuan's army began to retreat.
Soon, the news of Yuan's retreat reached Huguan.
As a result, Gao Yuan faced a question, "Is it to chase, or not to chase?" ”
Lao Jia Xu hurriedly said: "Lord, the Yuan army has set up a position to retreat, obviously prepared to go, if it is to catch up, our army will turn from defense to attack, under the enemy's superior forces to defend, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be too many losses." ”
Guo Jia and others very much agree with Jia Xu's views.
However, Gao Yuan had a different opinion, so he took out a thing, and it was time to use it. (To be continued......)
