Since Gongsun Zhan sent troops to Youzhou this time, he has not encountered any decent resistance along the way, until he came to the inconspicuous Dai County, and finally tasted the bitterness, only to find that even if there is no Youzhou without Liu He, Zhao Yun, Li Yan and Tai Shici and others, it is still not a lamb to be slaughtered.

Xu Rong has experienced a hundred battles and commanded many large and small battles, and now he attacked the city with 5,000 infantry against Gongsun Zhan's 20,000 army, without the slightest panic, and deployed the defensive forces on the city without leaking, and did not give Gongsun Chan who was besieging the city half a chance to take advantage of it.

On the day of the siege, Gongsun Zhan's army paid nearly 2,000 casualties, but it did not even attack the head of Dai County, which made Wang Men and Shan Jing, who had been blown by cowhides, very annoyed, and they came together to ask Gongsun Zhan for help, claiming that they would personally lead the team to attack the city shirtless tomorrow, and they would take Dai County no matter what.

Gongsun Chan was not in the mood to see the loyalty of these two goods, so he gathered all his henchmen to discuss the military situation and analyze whether there was a problem with the current march route.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the outcome of today's battle must have greatly exceeded your expectations, right? Let's talk about it, why a small Dai County has become a roadblock for our army! ”

Gongsun Zhan's voice was obviously a little irritated and unhappy, which shocked everyone in the tent.

Guan Jing was the first to speak: "There are two main reasons for our army's rudeness today. First, they did not find out the enemy's situation, and blindly thought that the defenders of Daixian County were only a few hundred, so they were not well organized when attacking the city; The second is to commit the taboo of underestimating the enemy, and regard the soldiers guarding Dai County as those strong men in the townships in Zhuo County. ”

Gongsun Chan nodded in agreement with Guan Jing's analysis, and then said: "Except for the wrong military situation and the underestimation of the enemy, do you feel anything wrong? ”

Being reminded by Gongsun Chan like this, everyone fell into deep thought, recalling the process of attacking the city during the day.

Wang Men suddenly slapped his thigh and shouted, "I remembered! Today's siege, from beginning to end, I didn't see the generals defending the city appear at the head of the city, but the defenders were all fearless of death, and did not show the slightest panic and timidity! ”

"And. The weapons these defenders use are completely different from what we've seen before! The armor they wore was mainly of the highest grade steel, and it was obviously a very elite main force! Shan Jing also shouted.

After everyone finished talking, Gongsun Chan said in a deep voice: "Have you ever wondered where the army that seems to have come out of thin air in Daixian came from? ”

"From a humble point of view, it is most likely to be a Xiliang veteran led by Xu Rong, and other troops do not have such strong combat power!" Guan Jing replied.

"Xu Rong is stationed in Gaoliu and it is already difficult to resist the Yuan army on the Western Front, why does he dare to send a force to Daixian to intercept our army at this time?" Gongsun Chan asked again.

"Could it be that the war on the Western Front has changed......" Guan Jing answered casually, and suddenly chuckled in his heart, not daring to say anything further.

"Regardless of whether there is any change in the war on the Western Front, tomorrow our army will temporarily stop attacking Daixian! Immediately send out the most capable of your men to scout and to work hard. Tonight, I immediately rushed to the Ban's, Beipingyi, and Gaoliu areas to investigate. In addition, we must also pay special attention to what is behind us, so as to prevent troops from being sent from the direction of Jicheng to cut off our grain route! ”

Gongsun Chan is experienced in the end, has a keen judgment of unknown dangers, and made the right decision at this critical moment.

In Dai County, Xu Rong had just counted the number of casualties among the soldiers, and found that the situation was even better than he expected. During the daytime battle, Xu Rong only lined up 3,000 soldiers to fight in the city, and the other 2,000 soldiers were hidden in the city by him. When the battle is tense, they will all engage in hand-to-hand combat.

Xu Rong thought to himself: "Gongsun Zhan suffered a big loss in Dai County today, he should be aware of it at this time, right?" I wonder if Childe's follow-up deployment is in place? I can drag Gongsun Chan here for ten days and half a month, but if he is determined to leave. With the current strength alone, I am afraid that it will not be able to stop it. ”

Xiahoulan and Han Heng, who were not far from Dai County, received a military report from Dai County overnight, and learned that Gongsun Zhan had been stopped outside Dai County, so they were even more excited. only waited for Gongsun Zhan to be stopped by himself after the rout.

On the second day, Gongsun Zhan's army did not move and stayed quietly in the camp.

In the evening of the same day. Zhang He led the Youzhou cavalry to arrive outside the city, which was only more than sixty miles away from Gongsun Zhan's army.

In the second half of the night, Gongsun Zhan sent a scout horse to report quickly, claiming to have discovered that an army of nearly 10,000 cavalry was coming from the east, and now it had reached the vicinity of Yanjiao, only sixty miles away from his own military camp.

Gongsun Chan was shocked when he heard the news, and before waiting for dawn, he ordered the army to immediately withdraw from the camp and hurriedly retreated in the direction of Zhuojun along the road from which he came.

Although there were 3,000 white horses in front of Gongsun Zhan's account, he did not dare to despise the Youzhou cavalry that suddenly appeared, and now the situation is very strange, and the plan to go west to join the Yuan army is obviously wrong, if he can't withdraw the troops to Zhuo County as soon as possible, it will be really dangerous.

At the same time that Gongsun Chan ordered the army to retreat urgently, Sun Li and Xu Miao led 5,000 infantry to successfully capture Zhuo County the day before.

Outside Wuruan Pass, Xu Huang led the spear battalion and the knife and axe battalion against Ji Yong and his thousands of soldiers, with Xu Huang's calm and bravery, Ji Yong, a miscellaneous fish, was not an opponent at all, and he was chopped off by Xu Huang with an axe without supporting five rounds.

Zhang Zhan, who was guarding on the ridge, saw the reinforcements suddenly arrive, and immediately led the defenders of the pass to rush out, and the support army led by Xu Huang came to meet with each other, and within half an hour, this small group of Gongsun Zan troops was cleaned up.

Zhang Zan came to Liu He and finally met the eldest prince he had never met.

"Wuruan Guan General Zhang Zan has seen the eldest prince!" Zhang Zhan, who was past middle age, bowed to the young Liu He with a solemn expression.

Liu He smiled and stretched out his hand to help Zhang Zhan: "General Zhang has been guarding Wuruan Pass for several years, and he has made great contributions in Youzhou, and when this war is over, my son will definitely ask for credit for you!" ”

"Thank you for your love! I wonder what the end will do? ”

"I also ask General Zhang to take these prisoners into the pass and keep them under strict guard, and when I go to Daixian to kill Gongsun Zhan, I will send someone to send them to Macheng!"

After taking care of the little tail left by Gongsun Chan to the east of Wuruan Pass, Liu He immediately led his army to the area where Laishui bent to the east, where his subordinates ambushed and waited for Gongsun Zhan's arrival.

However, it was said that after Gongsun Zhan urgently ordered the army to retreat fifty miles, he again sent Tanma and Xizuo to investigate everywhere, but before Tanma returned to report the news, Zhang He had already led a large group of cavalry to his camp.

Gongsun Zhan realized the seriousness of the problem at this time, and he ordered the deputy general Wang Men to lead 3,000 white horses to break the rear, and he himself led the main force to retreat to the east in a hurry.

Eight thousand Youzhou cavalry fought against three thousand white horse Yicong, including more than 3,000 Wuhuan cavalry who had been bullied by Baima Yicong very badly.

When Bai Ma Yi dealt with the steppe nomadic cavalry at the beginning, the most powerful thing was their speed and cavalry shooting, while the Youzhou cavalry relied on sophisticated equipment and terrifying hand-to-hand slashing and fighting. If it weren't for the fact that they stayed and broke off, the three thousand white horses could have fought and walked at the same time, and lost their opponents with their superb riding and archery skills, but this time they had to hedge against the black armored iron horsemen.

Under the circumstance that the troops occupy an absolute advantage, the equipment occupies an absolute advantage, and the commanding generals also occupy an absolute advantage, it is only natural that the Youzhou cavalry quickly defeated and completely annihilated the white horse Yicong.

The Wang Men who stayed behind was good at talking big things, but after he really faced Zhang He, he immediately exposed his true colors of fish belly. Although Zhang He's force is not as good as Zhao Yun and Guan Yu and others, he ranks in the top few of the first-class generals of the Three Kingdoms, and there is only a slight gap between him and the super-first-class generals.

The resistance of the White Horse Yicong was very tenacious, although they did not have an advantage in terms of blades and armor, but they did not flinch, dared to face the high-speed charge and slash of the hand, and did not hesitate to shoot the arrows in their hands before falling off their horses, causing a lot of casualties to the Youzhou cavalry.

However, no matter how stubborn the resistance was, the white horse still failed to continue the glory of the year, and finally was completely defeated.

Youzhou Xuanjia Black Cavalry was brought out by Zhao Yun, but Zhao Yun was from the White Horse Yicong Battalion, and now the White Horse Yicong was completely destroyed by the Xuanjia Black Cavalry, which can really be described as a creation and a man, which is amazing.

After Zhang He commanded the cavalry to completely annihilate the white horse Yicong behind Gongsun Zhan's palace, he handed over the wounded soldiers and captured prisoners to Xu Rong, who came from Dai County to help in the battle, and then continued to lead the army to pursue Gongsun Zhan.

Gongsun Zhan, who had already realized that something was wrong, let Shan Jing lead 5,000 infantry to break off this time, and use the precious time that 3,000 white horse Yicong bought for him with his life and blood to temporarily build a defensive line against the cavalry on the retreating road.

Gongsun Chan started as a cavalryman, and naturally has a wealth of experience in how to get rid of cavalry pursuit, and he let the soldiers build this line of defense, which is enough to resist the cavalry that comes to pursue for several days.

When Zhang He led the army to chase in front of the Shan Jing formation, he did not do anything brutally, but stopped and confronted Shan Jing.

Zhang He was not in a hurry, he was waiting for the infantry of Xu Rong, Xiahou Lan and Han Heng who came from the rear to reinforce.

A day later, Xu Rong led 10,000 infantry to arrive, and Shan Jing was completely panicked, and he could no longer care about hiding behind the horse rejection deer and glaring at Zhang He, and hurriedly took 5,000 soldiers to flee in the direction of Gongsun Zhan's evacuation.

It's just that what Ling Shan Jing didn't expect was that he had just retreated less than thirty miles to the east, but he met the disgraced Gongsun Zhan head-on!

"There are a large number of ambushes on the east bank of Laishui, and we were fiercely attacked when we crossed to the river, and now we can only retreat in the direction of Guangchang!" Guan Jing breathlessly told Shan Jing the bad news.

"I'm afraid it's too late! The pursuers have arrived......" Shan Jing stayed there like a wooden chicken, muttering in his mouth. (To be continued......)
