"Report, my lord, Beihai Taishou Qin Qi gathered 25,000 soldiers from the county, and they are marching to the county, according to their steps, they will arrive in three days. "August 15, it should be the Mid-Autumn Festival, but the war is coming, no one in the army has the heart to celebrate the festival, the army all the way to Linzi City, on the way, a horse suddenly galloped from the east, straight to Gongsun Ming's Chinese army, a saddle off the horse, the horse Gu
Before his breath was even, he was already panting and reported the change in military situation.
"Revisit. โ
Hearing that Qin Qi was coming, Gongsun Ming's eyes couldn't help but light up, but he didn't say anything, he just waved his hand indifferently and gave an order, and he had already sent the newspaper horse away.
"Lord, Prime Minister Cao Cheng is here to give you a big gift, if you don't accept it, I'm afraid I can't live up to Prime Minister Cao's kindness. โ
Although Gongsun Ming didn't say anything, Xu Shu obviously guessed where Gongsun Ming's thoughts were, and said with a smile.
"Heh, don't take it, it's ominous, pass on the order: the whole army will speed up immediately, and be sure to rush to Xi'an County (now Hengtai County) before sunset!" Seeing that Xu Shu guessed his thoughts, Gongsun Ming was also happy, but he didn't say much, he just smiled and nodded, and then his face was solemn, and he immediately gave the order. Even when he heard the sound of the horn of the Chinese Army, the more than 60,000 troops that had been marching in a roundabout way began to accelerate.
The smoke and dust billowed straight to Xi'an County, more than 50 miles away......
"Report, General, the thief army has arrived outside Xi'an, General Zhang Tai has not had time to withdraw, and is now besieged in the city by the thief army, and the villain has been sent to ask for help. "It was about to be dark, and in the Linzi City Guard, the Xiahoudun brothers and Cheng Yu were making a final discussion on defense matters, but when they heard a rush of footsteps, a newspaper horse had stumbled into the lobby, and reported to Xiahoudun on one knee with a worried face
A word.
"It's so fast, Zhongde, how should this be good?" The original strategy was to clear the wilderness and defend it to the end, but now Gongsun Ming's troops suddenly accelerated and rushed to the ground, and the soldiers and civilians of Xi'an County had no time to evacuate
Chengchi, wouldn't the earlier Jianbi Qingye become a way to raise food for the Youzhou army, this is obviously not a situation that Xiahoudun is happy to see.
"Let General Zhang defend the city, once things are not harmonious, it is better to set fire to the city than to feed the enemy!" Cheng Yu is obviously also puzzled by the sudden acceleration of the Youzhou army, without him, the advance speed of the Youzhou army has not been fast a few days ago, and it only travels about 30 miles at most every day, which seems to be extremely cautious, but today it ran more than 60 miles in one breath, and there is obviously something strange in it, just Cheng
Yu couldn't guess the intention behind Gongsun Ming's move for a while, and in desperation, he could only prepare for the worst first.
"Zhongde's words are wrong, if he doesn't save him when he sees death, how can he expect the soldiers of all departments to use their lives, and he is willing to lead his troops and horses to relieve the siege!"
Hearing that Cheng Yu was going to give up the Xi'an military and civilians, Xiahou Yuan's eyes immediately widened, and he was very dissatisfied and defended himself.
"Don't be reckless, Gongsun Xiao'er has always used strange soldiers, good at using ambush tactics, if you deliberately use Xi'an as bait, in fact, half of the ambush, our army goes to the rescue, will fall into its hand, once lost, Linzi is difficult to protect. โ
Since the rise of Gongsun Ming in Youzhou, Cheng Yu has collected the details of Gongsun Ming's previous battles, and obviously has an in-depth understanding of Gongsun Ming's strategic thinking.
"Hmm...... What Zhong De said is not unreasonable, and he will wait a few days to see the situation before it is decided. โ
Xiahoudun originally wanted to send troops to rescue Xi'an County, but when he heard Cheng Yu say this, he couldn't help but hesitate, and after hesitating again and again, he finally decided to stand still first......
"Bastard, order all departments to cross the river immediately, and be sure to rush to the county before dark, and those who dare not listen to the command will be killed!" Although the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, but the day is still hot and panicked, especially at noon, the sun is extremely hot, in this weather to hurry, it is undoubtedly a difficult thing, suddenly encountered the Yao River such a clear stream, this is a temporary collection of Beihai County soldiers how can withstand the temptation of coolness, hula la all scattered to the river, scrambling to hold the water and drink endlessly, the original strict marching team suddenly made a mess, such a situation, Beihai Taishou Qin Qi was angry when he boarded, only to see his hateful wave of the horsewhip, annoyed to the extreme
Dao Death Order. The military order is the military order, and it is absolutely inviolable, even if the soldiers are full of resentment against Qin Qi's order, but under the pressure of the generals at all levels, no one dares to have any objections, so they can only quickly return to their headquarters, step into the Yao River, which is not deep, and wade to the other side, of course
In the middle of the march, there are still many soldiers in the river with water bladders, broken bowls and other things to drink endlessly, so that the speed of crossing the river is naturally not fast, tossing for most of the hour, only more than half of the soldiers and horses.
"Blow the trumpet, order all departments to speed up the crossing of the river, and if you dare to delay, you will be killed!" Seeing that the speed of crossing the river was so slow, it was impossible to rush to the drama county before dark, Qin Qi was impatient for a while, and he gave another general order with a straight face, but most of the soldiers under his command were temporarily recruited stragglers, and let the horn sound extremely poignantly, a gang
The lazy guy never reacted much, and the speed of crossing the river was not much faster, so angry that Qin Qi wanted to scold his mother.
"Woo, woo, woo......"
Not long after the horn sound of Qin Qi's Chinese army stopped, a tight horn suddenly sounded in a forest four miles away, and then I saw a large number of Youzhou cavalry rushing out of the forest frantically, like a whirlwind, rushing straight towards the Cao army gathered by the river.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack ......"
The momentum of the Youzhou army's attack was so huge that even if it was more than four miles away, it was impossible for the soldiers of the Cao army to see it, and in an instant, the entire river bank suddenly became a mess.
"Steady, don't mess up, line up, line up quickly!" Seeing that the situation was not right, Qin Qi's face suddenly turned pale, but he was unwilling to admit it, and roared desperately, trying to stabilize his soldiers, but unfortunately it was just useless work, just a rabble like the Northern Navy, even if it was not attacked, it was impossible to line up a defensive formation in a short period of time, let alone in such a situation of attack on Bandu, Rao is Qin Qi shouted loudly, but he couldn't stop the collapse of his department at all......
