Chapter 251: Desperation
With this idea, Yuan Shao began to get busy again. On the one hand, he ordered people to continue digging tunnels, and on the other hand, he sent his soldiers to find this secret passage to the inner city. Originally, he hoped to get some useful clues from Cao Jun's captured tongue, but before he could be interrogated, the man had already bitten his tongue and committed suicide.
If there is no clue, then you can only rely on the method of finding a needle in a haystack, hoping to find this secret passage.
Still Du Chen had a way, he first found the place where the person was captured, and then used this as the origin to start the net search. Eventually, the effort paid off, and less than 500 meters from the place where the man was captured, a soldier came with the news that they had found the entrance to the secret passage.
Getting the news, Du Chen nodded secretly. However, although he found the entrance to the secret passage, he did not dare to rashly order someone to explore it. This secret passage is so secret, this is definitely used by Gongsun Chan to escape, so for this secret passage, Gongsun Chan will definitely be heavily guarded.
You must know that this is a double-edged sword, he can bring hope of escape to Gongsun Zhan, or he can set himself on fire, and finally bring unimaginable terrible consequences to himself, so Gongsun Chan will naturally defend very tightly and will not give the enemy a chance to take advantage of.
found the entrance to the secret passage, and the content written in the cotton cloth became more real, which also made Yuan Shao hopeful. If the things in the secret letter are true, then he will be able to take this opportunity to take the inner city.
Yuan Jun was well prepared, while Gongsun Zhan in the inner city was suffering. Know that you are trapped on an island at this time, and if there is no solution, there is only destruction.
Gongsun Chan is not afraid of death, on the contrary, he can face death very calmly. However, now that he still has the strength to fight, he wants to take this opportunity to fight for his survival again. If you can do it, then you can do it, but if you fail in the end, then you have no intention of living.
At this time, he was looking forward to reinforcements, hoping that the reinforcements would arrive in time, and if the reinforcements could really arrive in time, then he would definitely fight hard. It's in this feeling of mixed feelings. A few days passed in a hurry. These few days are definitely an extraordinary torment for Gongsun Zhan, and these days are absolutely rare for Yuan Jun, because of the preparation of these few days, Yuan Jun's preparation is also very good.
Whether it was the excavation of the tunnel or the preparation of an ambush for Gongsun Zhan, Yuan Jun was fully prepared. Regardless of the two, Yuan Jun had absolute confidence that he would be able to annihilate Gongsun Chan in one fell swoop. Even if there is no army that completely annihilates Gongsun Zhan, it can still make Gongsun Chan collapse, even if he continues to attack the city. Gongsun Chan also rebelled in the house.
With such adequate preparations, Yuan Jun began to prepare to lure Gongsun Chan out of the city. Now that he has been prepared, and Yuan Jun also has the confidence to win, then he can act according to the plan, after all, it will be easier for him to take Yi Jing as soon as possible.
And calculating the time, presumably Gongsun Chan can't find any flaws, after a qiē calculation. Yuan Jun and Cao Jun began to act according to the plan.
According to what is written on the cotton cloth that Gongsun Chan asked for help, if Zhang Yan's army comes to help. And he raised three torches to make a code. The reason why people did not enter the inner city through the secret passage was that they were afraid of being discovered by the Yuan army, after all, there was chaos in the city when they left the city, and after a few days of rest, the Yuan army had already turned the outside of the inner city into an iron bucket, so it was very likely to be discovered by the enemy army when entering the inner city through the secret passage.
A qiē is well prepared. Three torches were also raised. The soldiers of Gongsun Zan in the city found out about the actions outside the city, and then heard the earth-shattering shouts outside the city, and it was obvious that there was a battle outside the city.
With this news, the soldiers hurried to inform Gongsun Zhan. And after Gongsun Chan got the news, he immediately showed a face full of joy. Go without saying. It must be Zhang Yan's reinforcements coming.
He made a lot of promises to Zhang Yan, if this could not impress Zhang Yan, then Gongsun Zhan would not know what could impress Zhang Yan in the world. Therefore, Gongsun Chan still believes very much that it is a fact that Zhang Yan came to help.
Gathering his last strength, Gongsun Chan prepared to lead his troops to break through. After all, if you don't break through now, then you won't have a chance. Moreover, he will not be able to hold out for long, and the inner city will be breached by the enemy army in a few days.
Gathering his only soldiers, Gongsun Chan began the final lecture of the breakthrough. Glancing at the generals under his command, Gongsun Chan said in a deep voice: "Soldiers, whether you can break through today depends on your brothers." ”
"Now we are surrounded by the Yuan army and the Cao army, if we can't break through, then we have only one way to die, the soldiers tell sù zan, do you want to die or live!" Gongsun Chan roared sharply.
How many people in the world who committed suicide, all the soldiers naturally wanted to save their lives, so after listening to Gongsun Zhan's words, all the soldiers raised their weapons and shouted: "I am willing to follow the lord to break through, I am willing to follow the lord to break through!" ”
Seeing that the morale of the soldiers was high, Gongsun Chan showed a satisfied smile. Now all of them are ready to standby, and then Gongsun Chan gave an order, and then the inner city gate was opened, and Gongsun Chan took the lead in leading the army to kill Gongsun Chan.
Since it was to lure the enemy, it was natural to wait for the enemy army to go deep before encircling Gongsun Zhan's army, and Gongsun Zhan was eager to break through and did not find anything unusual about Yuan's army, on the contrary, he was very happy that the breakthrough was so smooth, and at this time he seemed to Yi Jing to see that he had broken through.
Every move of Gongsun Zhan's army is under the surveillance of Yuan Jun, and Yuan Shao is also very clear about what Gongsun Zhan's army is doing, so he is very clear about Gongsun Zhan's every move, as long as Gongsun Chan breaks through a distance, then he can completely annihilate Gongsun Zhan's breakthrough troops.
Thinking of this, Yuan Shao showed a satisfied smile, the war had been going on for a long time, and he was finally able to take Yi Jing. If you take Yi Jing, then you will prove that you have won the entire Youzhou, and then the entire Youzhou will be able to gallop on your own.
Gongsun Chan broke through some distance again, and he finally encountered great resistance. It wasn't until this time that Gongsun Chan realized that he might have been tricked. Because at this moment, apart from himself, he Yi Jing couldn't hear any shouts and killings elsewhere.
The reason why this is the case is that firstly, it may be that Zhang Yan's army has been defeated by Yuan's army, and secondly, Zhang Yan has not come at all. The possibility of the first one is very small, Zhang Yan also has an army of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, how long has it been, how could Zhang Yan be defeated by Yuan's army. Even if tens of thousands of people don't fight back, it will take a little time to kill, how can they be defeated in such a short period of time, and there is no life at all.
Since it is not the first possibility, it is definitely Yuan Jun's design to lure him out of the city.
There are towering walls in the inner city, even if the Yuan army wants to conquer it, it will need to pay a lot of price. After leaving the city, his army was not the opponent of the combined forces of Cao Jun and Yuan Jun, so it was much easier to go out of the city for a decisive battle than to storm the inner city.
Since he knew that the second was Yuan Jun's treacherous scheme, Gongsun Zhan naturally would not wait for death here. There is no hope at all to break through Yi Jing, since this is the case, it is better to retreat into the inner city and wait for death, thinking of this, Gongsun Chan immediately shouted: "This is the enemy's trick, withdraw the army!" Withdrawal! ”
After the roar, Gongsun Chan hurriedly retreated towards the inner city on horseback, and Gongsun Zhan's soldiers heard Gongsun Zhan's roar and retreated towards the inner city like a tide. Staying outside for a moment can be life-threatening. So naturally, they won't stop outside the city and wait to die.
Although entering the inner city is waiting for death, at least there is still some hope, after all, there is no chance of survival if you stop here. If they want to live, they can only surrender, but in such a form, how can anyone choose to surrender, so they can only flee into the inner city.
Seeing that Gongsun Chan had seen through the plan of his own army, he began to retreat towards the inner city. Gongsun Chan had already been lured out, how could Yuan Jun put it back to the city lightly, so seeing that Gongsun Zhan's army began to retreat, Yuan Jun naturally rushed towards Gongsun Zhan's army without his life.
Wielding his spear, Gongsun Zhan no longer knew how many Yuan soldiers had died under his own spear. But even though he killed a lot of enemies, there were still many Yuan soldiers around him. Not only himself, but also other Gongsun Zhan soldiers.
However, Tong Guò struggled hard, and Gongsun Chan finally approached the gate of the inner city. Although he was physically and mentally exhausted, he still hoped that he would be able to break through and rush into the inner city when he saw the city gate that was not far from him.
With such an idea and an instinct to survive, Gongsun Chan felt that he could hold on for a while. Wielding his spear vigorously, Gongsun Chan approached the gate of the inner city little by little, and the soldiers under his command also worked hard towards this idea.
The bloodied Gongsun Chan finally broke into the inner city, and as the city gate slowly closed, a large number of Gongsun Chan soldiers were locked outside the inner city gate. In order to survive, he can only do this, after all, if Yuan Jun breaks into the inner city, he will have no chance of survival.
In this breakthrough, Gongsun Zhan suffered heavy losses, and the only remaining trace of strength was almost wiped out by Yuan's army. A large number of soldiers died, and a large number of soldiers were locked outside the city gates, thus being captured by the Yuan army.
With such a heavy loss, Gongsun Chan was heartbroken. You must know that there are not many soldiers left, and now that the entire Yijing inner city, there are only more than 1,000 people, how can they continue to defend against the attack of Gongsun Zhan's army.
Moreover, it is particularly important that since Yuan Jun will design himself, it proves that Yuan Jun has seen through his secrets. His own henchmen would never betray themselves, so since Yuan Jun knew his strategy, it was obvious that the strategy was intercepted by Yuan Jun. (To be continued......)
