Chapter 62: The Sons of the Yuan Family
2,000 VS 50,000, a twenty-five times difference in strength, this is already an invincible force. [ads:This site has a new URL,Shorthand method:,.]
Takato fell into deep thought.
Although he faced an invincible force, he was not discouraged.
"Where are Pei Yuanshao's soldiers and horses?" Takato asked.
Zhao Yun pondered and said: "Lord, calculate the time, I'm afraid it will take two or three days to arrive." ”
In two or three days, it was enough for Yuan Shao's 50,000 troops to capture Huguan, and without Huguan, the arrival of 5,000 Montenegrin troops would have no effect.
Subsequently, the chamber fell silent for a long time, and Zhao Yun and Zhou Cang beside him couldn't help, so they could only accompany Gao Yuan silently.
As the sun set, Zhou Cang's stomach roared, his black face turned red, and he scratched his head and said, "Lord, it's a big deal to fight with them, you better eat first, don't starve your body." ”
"Eat?"
A flash of inspiration flashed in Gao Yuan's mind, and an idea suddenly came. Although it is dangerous and the success rate is not large, if you stick to the pot pass, you will fail 100%.
The idea is to sneak up on the main formation.
Anyone who has played Three Kingdoms 12 knows that stealing this formation is the only way for the weak to defeat the strong. In reality, although there is no such thing as "Honjin", there is a large camp of grain and grass. Grain and grass, one day less, the soldiers and horses will be finished.
He told Zhao Yun and Zhou Cang about this idea.
Zhao Yun expressed concern.
"Even if there is only one percent hope, we have to fight with all our might." Gao Yuan said.
A person's life will not be smooth sailing, and he never gives up and dares to fight, which makes Zhao Yun very admirable, and it is also one of the reasons why he follows Gao Yuan.
So, Gao Yuan made a desperate bet and left a thousand people for Zhao Yun to guard the pot pass. He led a thousand cavalry, put on the clothes of Yuan Jun found in the pass, and took advantage of the night to quietly come out of Huguan.
The battle of 2,000 VS 50,000 kicked off.
On the second day, Yuan Shao's three-way soldiers and horses came to the plain twenty miles away from Huguan to assemble and became a large army.
There are two leaders in this army, one is the second son Yuan Xi, and the other is the third son Yuan Shang.
In ancient times, it was said that the lunar calendar, the tenth day of the tenth month of October, was already the early winter season. Some of the weather is cold, but the big tent of the Chinese army with charcoal fire is as warm as spring.
Yuan Xi came from Youzhou, with more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, as well as Wenwu Xinbi, Tian Yu and Zhang Nan.
Yuan Shang came from Jizhou, with more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, as well as Chen Lin, Yan Rou, and Su You.
Yan Liang came from Guandu to support and brought 20,000 soldiers and horses.
In the big tent, Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang sat side by side on the tent, and the civil and military servants stood under the tent.
Yan Liang brought Yuan Shao's anxiety and uneasiness, this suddenly lost a state, and even a prince couldn't sit still.
However, Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang were very steady, because in their opinion, although Gao Yuan's repulsion of Cao Cao's army was very unexpected. But Gao Yuan is much easier to deal with, because Gao Yuan has few soldiers.
Yuan Xi said: "The news came back from Xizuo, and Gao Mengyan actually divided his troops. So what Zhang Wenyuan went to take Hanoi, and Gao Mengyan only had 2,000 soldiers and horses in Huguan. ”
Two thousand!
Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang scoffed, in their opinion, their own 50,000 troops could capture Huguan with just one wave of offensive.
Now in their minds, what they are thinking about is not how to win the pot, but how to take the credit.
As we all know, Yuan Shao has three sons, the first two were sent out of the state to guard, and the younger son belongs to the anti-old type, so he stayed by his side. Generally speaking, the eldest son inherits the family business. However, Yuan Shao is not the eldest son, he is the eldest son, but he can suppress Yuan Shu and inherit the family business of the fourth and third dukes.
Therefore, snatching the family business from the hands of the descendants has become the tradition of the Yuan Shao family. And Yuan Shao, who already knew the mandate of heaven, had not specified who was the exact heir, which made the three sons have infinite reverie.
Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang couldn't help but think that Yuan Tan fought in Qingzhou, but fortunately he did not make any achievements. And if my side can occupy Huguan and recover and merge the state, this is no less than the credit of expanding the territory, and I will be able to show my face in front of my father and lay the foundation for inheriting the foundation in the future.
The two glanced at each other, and said at the same time: "The second brother (third brother) can step by step, and see that the brother (younger brother) will seize the Huguan." ”
The two were stunned at the same time after speaking, and the civil and military forces below were also stunned, and said in their hearts that they were worthy of being brothers, and they really had a heart.
The faces of the two changed at the same time, and their hearts said Don't he's, you hit the pot pass and ran to the front, there is no garrison in Bingzhou at all, you are in the front, and the credit for recapturing Bingzhou was all snatched away by you alone.
The two of them are not stupid, they know that today's Gaoyuan forces are thin, and there is only such a line of defense in the east, as long as they break through, they can go down in an instant.
"Second brother, I'll just take General Yan Liang there, it's too dangerous to fight, you should be in the rear." Yuan Shang said with a concerned face.
And Yuan Xi said with a caring face: "Third brother, when I was a child, I always fought for my brother in front, and this time is no exception." ”
Yuan Shang grinned when he heard it, and the tent Chinese Wu was dumbfounded for a while, but he didn't hear it.
The two of them, who had 50,000 people, didn't take Gao Yuan and his 2,000 people seriously at all. In their opinion, whoever is one step ahead will be able to take the lead step by step and be done.
Therefore, the two quarreled, and it gave people a feeling that the boys of the old Yuan family were all brave.
In the end, there was only a compromise, and the two attacked Huguan together.
Yuan Xi got up and said: "Immediately enter the pot pass and take the pot pass with one go!" ”
Yuan Shang got up and said: "After that, I will go all out and recapture the state." ”
The two sons were brave, and the Yuan family was also happy and promised again and again.
The two glanced at each other, and said in their hearts that they must take more credit from each other.
No one can't take credit for this, so they have to bring more troops, so the two divided Yan Liang's soldiers and horses, leaving a thousand people to guard the camp and the grain and grass in the camp.
Yan Liang is the general of the Yuan family, and the two sons are the young masters, and he does not have Yuan Shao's clear orders for the two young masters to command his soldiers and horses, so he naturally does not dare to object. However, the two of them each brought grain and grass, and now they are in a state of separation, so he immediately reminded: "Two sons, grain and grass are the top priority of our army, and each of them will leave a thousand people?" ”
Yuan Xi and Yuan Shangqi said: "Gao Mengyan has no soldiers, what are you afraid of?"
Looking at the appearance of these two sons, this is already fighting for merit, for Yan Liang, it is best not to get involved. However, there were some things he had to fight for, so he said: "It is better to combine the grain and grass together, and send more soldiers and horses to guard it, in case there is a change." ”
Yan Liang's face was to be given, so Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi agreed, and each sent 2,500 soldiers, a total of 5,000 soldiers and horses, and placed the grain and grass on both sides in a large camp, and sent Su You and Zhang Nan to guard them respectively.
So the two led the troops and ran to Huguan.
On the other hand, the ancient natural environment was good, and he was hiding in a dense forest more than ten miles northeast of Huguan, and received the exact news: Yuan's army was pulled out, and the grain and grass camp was not guarded by heavy troops.
Sure enough, there is a father, there is a son.
Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi looked down on Gao Yuan, which gave Gao Yuan a chance.
