Chapter 487: The Battle of Zhangshui
Jizhou, Hengshui.
Yuan Shao was lying on the couch, with a wet towel on his head, obviously with a fever, and the smell of Chinese herbs wafting in the room.
"Go and invite Youruo."
Yuan Shao said weakly.
Yuan Shao was very unimpressed with Xun Chen's soft-heartedness, Yecheng was so important to him, as the first mastermind, he naturally knew that it was natural to use the lives of officials to force He Feng to submit to Yecheng Park if he couldn't attack Yecheng Park.
Xun Chen strongly objected, Yuan Shao made a decision for the first time, and did not listen to him, but unexpectedly fell into He Feng's trick, the gossip array was just a trick, and the real killing move was the overwhelming long-range attack.
Thinking of the ultra-long-range blow, Yuan Shao felt for a while that he was like a little grass in the sky, trembling in the wind and rain, swaying helplessly.
After retreating to Hengshui and seeing the abandoned barracks of the Zhongshan Army, Yuan Shao was very nervous, regardless of his illness, and urgently called Xun Zhan to discuss the matter.
Now Yuan Shao no longer seeks to capture Yecheng, as long as he can return to Nanpi safely, with the influence of the Yuan family, send Dong Zhuo some gold and beauties, and once again overpower the world, and attack He Fengqun, in order to get rid of this big trouble.
If the princes knew that He Feng had long-range weapons, everyone would definitely be in danger, as long as someone took the lead, this matter would be done, provided that they calmly returned to Nanpi.
If they encounter a fiasco, I am afraid that many princes will have different minds, and no one is a fool to be the cannon fodder for the charge, who even Yuan Ben could not defeat at the beginning.
Seeing Xun Chen coming in, Yuan Shao waved back weakly, and despite Xun Chen's objections, he struggled to jump off the bed.
"As soon as I saw Youruo, Shao's illness was seven or eight points better, and he was already able to walk around on the ground."
Yuan Shao walked back and forth a few steps, and a smile appeared on his face, "Youruo is Shao's medicine!" ”
Xun Chen saw that the lord was safe, and said with a smile: "The lord is alive and well, and Chen is very happy in his heart." ”
The two put their hands together, and all kinds of unhappiness in Yecheng immediately disappeared.
"Lord, it's not good."
Xun Chen helped Yuan Shao to sit down and spread out the map he was carrying.
"There is no danger in Hengshui to defend, the enemy army abandons and retreats, this is a strategy to attack the heart, let us make mistakes in panic, with Chen's estimate, the enemy army will definitely block our army in Wuyi."
"Youruo, will He Feng's guy chase after him and attack from both sides?"
Looking at the nervous expression on the lord's face, Xun Chen laughed, "No, this is not it, He Hanxing's main task now is to stabilize Yecheng, he must not have many soldiers and horses in his hands, otherwise he will not lose Yecheng, as long as we cross Zhangshui, we can return to Nanpi safely." ”
……
Zhangshui is between Hengshui and Wuyi, the river is not wide, there is a pontoon bridge on the river, Guo Jia put the army in the east of Zhangshui, and did not line up against the water.
"Strategist, let's learn from Qi Wangxin, fight against the water, with my Gan Ning here, we will be able to boost morale and kill the enemy army in pieces.
Gan Ning changed back to his land combat weapon, the Nine Ninja Sword, today, and he seemed much more energetic than before.
Guo Jia was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and took out a book from his horse, "This is the method of training and practice written by the lord, Xingba might as well study it if you have time." ”
Gan Ning raised his head, "The lord's art of war, Ning has already seen it, it is nothing more than the Erdu Han people, Ning has already learned it." ”
Jiang Qin bowed on the horse, "Although Qin has not been in Zhongshan County for a long time, but the deeds of the lord are like thunder, I wonder if the military advisor can read the military book with us carefully?" ”
Guo Jia handed the book to Jiang Qin, and then pointed to Gan Ning and said: "The lord still understands you, saying that you are the dragon on the river and the overlord of the sea, and when the lord comes back, he will teach you the knowledge of the sea and make you a naval admiral." ”
Gan Ning looked at the gray sky and raised the Nine Ninja Sword high, "I Gan Ning is also a brave general on land." ”
……
The weather in Zhangshui has always been gloomy, and Father-in-law Sun didn't seem to want to see the two armies fighting, so he directly gave himself a big vacation.
And Sister Yun seems to be a lively character, and she ran out to watch the excitement on the ground today.
The Yuan army, under the command of Xun Zhan, lined up in the west of Zhangshui and launched a fierce attack on the Zhongshan army opposite.
Yuan's army was very efficient, and soon set up more than ten pontoon bridges on the Zhangshui River, and Yan Liang led 3,000 elite people to cross the bridge and directly take the enemy's Chinese army.
Jiang Qin wanted to make a meritorious start, patted the horse and danced the spear to greet him, and was killed by Yan Liang in less than Wuhe, sweating profusely, knowing that he was not an opponent, and was about to retreat, Zhou Tai saw that his brothers were not supported, and rushed forward with a knife, and the two fought against Yan Liang, which was worthy of the enemy.
The Zhongshan army seems to have insufficient troops and cannot take the initiative to seize the pontoon bridge, Yuan Jun in order to deal with Gongsun Zhan, there are many strong crossbows in the army, such as locust arrows and arrows do not need money to cover the sky, Yuan Shao was anxious, moved out of the family for many years, and the strong bow and hard crossbow shot the foot formation, and then Wen Chou led the infantry to slowly advance to the other side of the river.
The two sides fought selflessly on the pontoon bridge and the east bank, Xun Chen saw that the side had the advantage, and immediately ordered the partial general Wu Ge to form a surprise corps with 3,000 men and horses, and swam across the Zhangshui from the upper reaches.
As more and more Yuan soldiers crossed the pontoon bridge, the cavalry also gathered, and the cavalry slapped like angry waves against the Zhongshan army, which was consolidating the forward position.
In the Zhongshan army on the other side, an iron spear was suddenly shot, and the Yuan army had already known the harm of the bed crossbow, a killing weapon, and the cavalry under the command of Xun Chen no longer rushed hard, but relied on speed to fight in a roundabout way, consuming the strength of the Zhongshan army.
"Bed crossbow, bed crossbow!"
The generals at all levels in the Zhongshan army were sweating and constantly commanding the infantry array, and although the sword and shield soldiers and pikemen formed a phalanx, they looked shaky under the fierce impact of the Yuan army.
"Three slashes!"
Yan Liang was entangled by the two generals, and seeing that he had the upper hand, he roared and killed all the tricks, eager to overturn one person with one sword, so that the rest of the person would become a fish on the board.
"Dreadnought!"
Yan Liang's wishful thinking played well, and the Absolute Dust Knife Technique really went through the process, but unfortunately although Zhou Tai was only a person in the green forest and had no reputation, he was the most fearless person in the late Han Dynasty.
Back then, he rushed into battle to save Sun Quan and save Xu Sheng, even Huhou Xu Chu couldn't stop him with all his might, how could he be afraid of Yan Liang.
The blood light burst out, and Zhou Tai was scraped a little skin blood by the pure dust knife, and the blood was splashed, but after he saw the blood, his eyes were red, and his essence, qi, and spirit did not fall but rose, and his combat power soared, and the more he fought, the more brave he became.
Although Jiang Qin's force was much weaker than the two of them, seeing that his brothers were desperate, he had more military advisors to dispatch and command, and he also did his best to block many moves for Zhou Tai on the side.
The three of them caught and fought each other, and the rest of the soldiers couldn't even enter the battle group.
"When...... When ......"
In the fierce battle, the Zhongshan army heard the sound of the golden gong.
"Withdraw."
Jiang Qin shouted at Zhou Tai and turned around first.
"Where to run!"
Yan Liang defeated two generals, his spirit was high, and he led his troops to cover the killing.
