Chapter 1036 burned Zhan County and ambushed Zhang Liao

Zhan County is the county of Leping Country in Bingzhou.,Three-level town.,Population of 130,000.,There aren't many players here.,Because there's no particularly distinctive copy and property.,If it's a person who likes to fight monsters and adventures, he'll go to the Yangquan in the north.,If you like to plant and pick something, you'll go to the far plain in the west.。

Strategically, there is no strategic value in the hilly area west of Taihang, and there is Jinyang in the west, Yangquan in the north, Wuxiang and Liaoyang in the south, and Taihang Mountain in the east, which is considered a hinterland.

It's just that the natural danger of Taihang Mountain does not necessarily bring safety, and sometimes, it is this kind of place called natural danger that often becomes an opportunity for the enemy to take advantage of it.

Can you cross it on the Taihang? That's for sure, so why is it so difficult for a large army to cross the Taihang Upper Range? There is only one reason, that is, the water source, if there is no person who is familiar with the terrain to guide the way, and can not find a water source sufficient for the large army to drink in time, then the army will be tragic. As for the difficulty of the road and the harassment of bandits, it is only a matter of time.

This is not the real world, but the game world, the secret path on the mountain is actually not difficult to find, especially under the search of many players, the road from the stone gate over Taihang is not a great secret, as long as you spend money you can buy it, but the more troublesome thing is that it will be easy to leak the hidden by the player when you meet it on the road.

However, this problem is not a problem now, because Jizhou is in a big war. Everyone went to the vicinity of Julu to participate in the battle, and Gongsun Zhan burned the flames of war to the Shimen and Zhongqiu of Zhao State, which further attracted the players who would be active in Taihang. In this way, the 20,000 elite infantry led by Gongsun Zhan himself quietly crossed the Taihang Mountain.

Out of the Taihang Mountain, Gongsun Chan traveled at night, avoided the road in the mountainous area and hurried towards Zhan County, and finally successfully raided the county town on the night of September 6, but unfortunately the defenders of Zhan County did not have the responsibility to discover the enemy's raid in time, Gongsun Zhan did not have many men and horses, and for a time he was united in the city of Zhan County. Progress has not been made.

It was only at this time that everyone understood what Gongsun Zhan's whole plan was about, which turned out to be to seize Leping and threaten Taiyuan County from the side. Thus forcing Zhang Liao to abandon the northern part of Shangdang. Then form a multi-point mushroom strategy posture against Zhang Liao from three directions, as for besieging Zhang Jiao or something, most of them are an excuse, an excuse to paralyze Zhang Liao.

Gongsun Zhan's perfect plan fell short in the end, and it has to be said that it was bad luck, but there was no strong general stationed in Zhan County, and there was a danger of collapse at any time, if Zhang Liao could not provide immediate support, Gongsun Chan still had the possibility of successfully realizing his strategic intentions.

Guan Jing saw that Gongsun Zhan couldn't conquer Zhan County for a while. I also saw that the surrounding mountains were full of vegetation and vegetation, and in autumn the mountains were full of dead grass and stumps. I thought of another plan.

Gongsun Zhan, who was frowning in the big tent, saw Guan Jing coming in in a hurry, and immediately asked urgently:

"But news of enemy reinforcements?"

"Not 1

Gongsun Zhan breathed a sigh of relief, clenched his fist and hammered it on his thigh: "Although it is not, it will not be too far away, and now that the county has not been lowered, it is really worrying!" Seeing a great opportunity, did you miss it so much? ”

Guan Jing smiled, twisted his beard and said proudly:

"Don't worry, the subordinates see that the surrounding mountains are flourishing with grass and trees, and there are a lot of fire-causing things, and this county town is between the valleys, and the wind direction is fixed, if we pile up a large number of fire-starters on the upwind side, and throw them into the city, use fireworks, or we can force the defenders and people in the city out, so that the county is at your fingertips."

Gongsun Chan was overjoyed, and immediately ordered the soldiers to go up the mountain to collect the fire-starting materials, and piled them up in the northwest of Zhanxian County, and after accumulating enough fire-starting materials, they set it on fire, and put it into the grass branches to create smoke.

Gongsun Chan took the opportunity to throw ignition and oil canisters into the city, making the originally chaotic city even more chaotic, and Gongsun Chan took the opportunity to attack the city from both sides to lure the defenders to the city.

The fire burned all day, the whole city was shrouded in smoke, the whole day did not see the light of day, under the smoke and fire, many soldiers and people could not stand it, and finally opened the south gate at night, wanting to flee to the mountains, who knew that Gongsun Chan was waiting in ambush here.

Under the ambush of the elite Gongsun Zhan army, most of the defenders surrendered, and Zhanxian changed hands that night.

After Gongsun Zhan won the county, on the one hand, he strictly blocked the news, and on the other hand, he was afraid that Zhang Liao would be soaked in the same way, so he took advantage of Zhang Liao's absence to cut down all the grass and trees on the surrounding mountains

On the other side, after Zhang Liao received the news that Zhan County was raided by Gongsun Zhan, he immediately ordered to strengthen the defense of Yangyi and Wuxiang, leaving Hao Zhao to defend Xiangyuan, and he himself led the army to Liaoyang, and then set off from Liaoyang to the north to Zhan County.

The intelligence obtained by Zhang Liao shows that Gongsun Chan did not have many troops attacking Zhan County, which is also very reasonable, after all, it is definitely not an easy thing to cross the Taihang Mountain on a large scale, and it is impossible for Gongsun Chan to come over the mountain with too many troops, so Zhang Liao also only led 20,000 cavalry to rush forward lightly, wanting to reach Zhan County before the loss of Zhan County, and completely annihilate Gongsun Zhan's troops.

However, this road is all mountainous, although there is a road, but it is not easy to walk, especially after Liaoyang, the mountain road is more rugged, Zhang Liao is anxious, but he is also a little lucky.

"General, this road is so difficult that it may be dangerous to travel overnight."

"There's no way, time waits for no one, if we arrive in Zhanxian a moment earlier, we have a better chance of winning, if we only take measures to win because the road is difficult, then we will regret it1

"He told him to light more torches and light fires by the roadside."

"Yes, but be careful not to ignite the vegetation on the mountain, it's autumn and the vegetation is flammable."

"No1

"Fortunately, the enemy did not set up an ambush on our road in advance, otherwise it would have been dangerous1

"General, how could the other party guess which way we will go to help?"

"Hehe, it's also 1

Before Zhang Liao's words fell, suddenly a gong sounded on the mountains on both sides, and then a dense buzzing sound was heard, and then someone shouted: "The enemy army has a plan, kill 1."

With the shout, the dense crossbow arrows flew down condescendingly, and immediately shot Zhang Liaola's long troops to the ground!

"Quick, Zhang Dun, dismount, dodge to the sides1

"Snort"

The rain of arrows continued to fly down from the darkness with a terrifying sound, and the vicinity of the fire on the side of the road became a hard-hit area, Zhang Liao shouted loudly while striking the arrows: "Extinguish the fire, extinguish the torch 1."

"Fire Bolt! Enemy Fire Bolt 1

With an exclamation, the little flames fell like flowing fire from the sky, and they fell on both sides of the road below the valley, and the withered yellow weeds were suddenly ignited.

Zhang Liao was shocked: "Assault forward!" Fast 1

"General, the front is blocked, let's retreat 1

Zhang Liao gritted his teeth fiercely: "Retreat, retreat 1."

It's a pity that although the road behind is relatively open and impossible to be blocked, it was caught in a lot of traps by the other party at some point, and then under the attack of dense arrows and paper talismans, Zhang Liao's troops suffered heavy casualties, fortunately it was night, Zhang Liao finally escaped with dozens of his own guards, and retreated to Liaoyang Cang.

Gongsun Yue, who was standing on the hillside, exhaled loudly, and his face showed a trace of irrepressible joy, and finally cleared the stigma of the invincible general! What's more, the opponent is still the famous Zhang Liao, can Gongsun Yue be unhappy?

The hardships in the mountains in the past ten days have been worth it, and at this moment, Gongsun Yue's redemption, the haze in his heart was finally swept away, and the whole person seemed relaxed.

"The order was given, leaving the first battalion of the rear team to clean up the battlefield, and the rest immediately formed a team, marched towards Liaoyang, and attacked Liaoyang 1 with General Yan Gang

"No1

Zhang Liao's front foot was defeated back to Liaoyang, Yan Gang's troops arrived on the back foot, Gongsun Zhan's whole plan was very strict, as for the ambush of Zhang Liao, it was actually an unexpected joy, originally Gongsun Chan wanted to take Zhan County, use Gongsun Yue's troops to set up an ambush between Wuxiang and Zhan County, or ambush reinforcements, or wait for reinforcements to raid Wuxiang after the reinforcements.

But he didn't expect that he failed to take Zhan County, Zhang Liao did not choose to give up Xiangyuan, but directly returned to the army to the north to help, Gongsun Zhan just let Gongsun Yue set up an ambush Zhang Liao's pure cavalry troops, I didn't expect the results to be so good.

So Yan Gang, who was originally going to attack Wuxiang, re-targeted Liaoyang, wanting to take the opportunity to kill Zhang Liao.

Liaoyang, a small city, is a place where there is no danger to defend, not to mention that now Zhang Liao has no soldiers to defend, Zhang Liao is very decisive, directly with the soldiers who can be taken away to abandon the city, turn over and go straight to Wuxiang, and at the same time give an order to Hao Zhao to abandon Xiangyuan and retreat to Niexian and Wuxiang.

Yan Gang rushed into the undefended Liaoyang, and Dong Zhao, who was marching with him, immediately judged Zhang Liao's intentions and suggested that Yan Gang leave a small force to guard Liaoyang and wait for Gongsun Yue, while Yan Gang's troops immediately moved between Xiangyuan and Wuxiang to ambush the retreating Hao Zhao again.

It's a pity that Hao Zhao also expected that he didn't take the road of Wuxiang, but took the western route and returned directly to Niexian, in fact, Hao Zhao thought that Niexian and Wuxiang could not be defended, because after Gongsun Zan won Zhan County, he could threaten the Taiyuan Plain from the flank, if Taiyuan was lost, what was the point of staying here, so Hao Zhao's goal was to preserve the living force, which made him lucky to avoid Yan Gang's ambush.

Sure enough, then Zhang Liao issued an order to give up Nie County and retreat to Qi County, Zhang Liao himself also gave up Wuxiang and retreated to Yangyi, blocking Gongsun Zhan's westward advance, so far Zhang Liao withdrew from Shangdang County, and Shangdang County all fell into the hands of Gongsun Zhan, plus most of Leping County, Gongsun Zhan's strategic intentions have basically been achieved, and Zhang Liao's situation has become extremely bad.
