Chapter 848: Closing the Siege
It was getting late, and the soldiers of Yuan Shao's troops who were scattered in the first battle of Gaotang County were finally wiped out by Yang Rui and Zhang Ning's heavenly spirit fire rain on the south bank of the Yellow River due to the obstruction of the Yellow River.
Yang Rui didn't know who the commander of Yuan Shao's troops near Gaotang was, but judging from the current response of Yuan Shao's troops, his leader still had no weak ability.
And the entire plan of Yuan Shao's troops to cross the river to the south is also very thorough, at this time Yuan Shao's troops went south, and the destination was the direction of Liaocheng County, and Liaocheng County was already in the hands of Yuan Shao's troops.
If it weren't for Yang Rui's timely arrival, I'm afraid that Yangping County would have already fallen into the control of Yuan Shao's troops.
The three cities of Gaotang County, Liaocheng County, and Yangping County are connected in a line, and Yuan Shao's 600,000 troops can't really gain a firm foothold.
At that time, even if Yang Rui can use the superior forces to drive Yuan Shao out of the Qingzhou and Yanzhou regions again, he will have to pay a lot of price, and the key is that the regions involved in Yuan Shao's troops will definitely be greatly affected.
"General Ma Yan, at this time, the Lieyang people are in hot pursuit, we must act separately, you and lead all the soldiers and horses to the south road, through Exian and to Liaocheng, I will lead all the soldiers and horses to take the north road, Wangbo Ping and go to Liaocheng.
Even if the troops and horses are on the same road, they must spread their forces as far as possible and hand them over to the commanders of large and small generals to go separately. ”
In the midst of the rout of Yuan Shao's troops, a man who looked like a scribe spoke to another man in full armor.
The two of them are the leaders of Yuan Shao's troops near Gaotang - Trial and Ma Yan!
At this time, both of them looked like they were in the dust. The scribes' garments were torn into strips. And Ma Yan is no better. Although the armor is still complete, the whole face is spent, as if it has been pulled out of the pot.
"It's all up to Mr. to arrange, and I will convey the order!"
Ma Yan replied with a fist, although his strength is not low, but he is very self-aware in terms of commanding troops, and he has always obeyed the arrangement of the trial, and he did not make a mistake before Yang Rui and everyone appeared.
"General Ma Yan is slow. And with this book with him, the two of us arrived in Liaocheng first, and handed this letter to Mr. Tian Feng, so that he could know our situation as soon as possible, so that he could deal with it as soon as possible, and rescue the soldiers of the other troops who had been scattered. ”
Just as Ma Yan was about to turn around and leave, he was stopped by the interrogator and handed him a secret letter to Tian Feng.
Ma Yan didn't think much about it, took the letter and stuffed it into his arms. After holding his fists again, he gathered all the soldiers and handed them over to more than a dozen generals under his command. Directly turned the road and went in the direction of Nanben Yi County.
The trial did not do as he said before, and when Ma Yan walked away, he packed up some of the soldiers and went directly to Boping.
Although the trial also tried to disperse the soldiers as much as possible, it still looked like a large group of people from a distance, and his real purpose was to attract Yang Rui's pursuers and cover Ma Yan's escape!
Originally, Boping's position was closer to the Yellow River, and the trial match did not hide his figure, if nothing else, Yang Rui's chasing soldiers would definitely give priority to the pursuit of the trial.
And unexpectedly, either because of the late time, or because of the trial and matching, Ma Yan was lucky enough, since the two of them divided their troops, Yang Rui's soldiers did not continue to chase down.
"Huh? When did this [plot completion] appear? ”
At this time, Yang Rui and Zhang Ning have actually returned to Gaotang County, while cleaning up the battlefield and reorganizing the troops, Yang Rui also noticed a little change in the character attribute panel, I don't know when it started, there has been an additional [plot completion] attribute in the panel.
After a long period of observation, Yang Rui had almost guessed what this [Plot Completion] attribute meant, and at this time, a 4952850 number was displayed behind the [Plot Completion], which looked very similar to the points value of the previous large-scale plots and tasks.
Since the beginning of the plot, Yang Rui has not received any system prompts such as integral values, originally he thought that there were no more relevant settings for changing the plot, but he didn't expect the relevant settings to appear directly on the attribute panel.
In addition, since the plot happened, Yang Rui has been busy teleporting, placing Chen Xiaonan, and later dealing with Yuan Shao's attack on crossing the river, so that Yang Rui really didn't pay attention to the changes in the attribute panel.
Now seeing 3852850 this number, and roughly calculating the number of Yuan Shao's soldiers eliminated, Yang Rui can basically determine that it is similar to the existence of the integral value, at least the number is related to the results of the battle.
An hour passed, the sky had completely darkened, Yang Rui was able to gather three-quarters of the soldiers, and some of the soldiers had not had time to rush back after Yang Rui gave the order to retreat.
It happened that Gaotang County still needed someone to guard it, so Yang Rui left Sun Qian and 100,000 soldiers, plus the remaining soldiers who had returned one after another, to garrison Gaotang County.
Including Zhang Ning, Han Dai, Ding Yao, Huang Wudie and the rest of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers, they were placed in the Sky City by Yang Rui, and rushed to the direction of Liaocheng County that night.
Because the boats crossing the Yellow River were towed away or destroyed by the Taishi Cishui army, after the first battle of Gaotang County, almost no one of Yuan Shao's troops could escape the Yellow River, and Yang Rui could basically judge from the direction of his escape that Yuan Shao's army would almost inevitably go to Liaocheng County.
Therefore, Liaocheng County is also likely to become the decisive battle place for Yang Rui and Yuan Shao to cross the river!
However, Yang Rui didn't find many of Yuan Shao's soldiers all the way forward, firstly because of the night, and on the other hand, the map area was too large, even if the vision of Sky City could only cover a small area.
Yang Rui didn't expect that the trial and Ma Yan would divide the troops, but he just suspected that the other party might fight back against Gaotang County, but with Sun Qian sitting in Gaotang County, plus the reinforcements sent by Pingyuan City, I believe that Yuan Shao's troops would not be able to make much waves.
At night, Yang Rui had already reached the vicinity of Liaocheng County when he operated Sky City, and it only took more than an hour before and after, which was the reason why Yang Rui had been paying attention to Yuan Shao's soldiers on the way and delayed for some time.
Although Yang Rui did not release the soldiers in the Sky City, when the Sky City approached again, it meant that the siege of Liaocheng County had been completed! (To be continued.) )
