Volume 6 Calculates Separately] Chapter 319 Closed the Observation Group-

Yuan Shao, who had no achievements, left behind the corpses of more than 2,000 innocent soldiers and withdrew to Linxian in a gloomy manner, presumably not coming to Huguan again in the short term. (According to the unspoken rule that everyone takes turns to sit in the village, the next round should be Yuan Shao to sit and watch the performance of other forces or the central army of the imperial court.) If he still adopts conventional siege methods, he does not think that others will be much better than himself.

As soon as Yuan Jun evacuated, many reserve troops wearing masks immediately poured out from the Huguan to clean up all the bodies of Yuan Jun and the seriously wounded soldiers who were abandoned under Huguan. If these corpses are not disposed of in time and left to rot under the kettle, it is likely to cause a new plague, and since Yuan Shao does not care, the Zhenbei Army has to be responsible for cleaning up the battlefield.

More than 1,000 Yuan soldiers who had been killed by arrows were transported by the reserve troops in specially sealed carriages to a burning ground far away from Huguan. These Yuan soldiers are all local children of Jizhou, but now they are going to end up dead, which is really pitiful and sad. They just want to be a soldier's salary, so as to feed the old and young in their families, who would have thought that this blood-stained military salary would require their lives to be paid?

Of the more than 800 Yuan troops who were seriously injured, Zhao Yun did not brutally give the order to kill, but sent them to Lu County, which was closer to Huguan, where there was a large field medical hall equipped with M-N for the Huguan defenders, which was equipped with many Langzhong who could perform surgical operations, which could save the vast majority of the wounded soldiers of the Yuan army who had not yet died.

These wounded soldiers, once they are rescued by the annexed state, can play a very important role in the future. What is the specific role, you can recall some of Zhao Xing's usual practices in the past, in short, just make money and not lose money.

Yuan Shao, who returned to Linxian County, went to see Zhu Jun and reported the battle situation of the attack on Huguan vaguely, to the effect that Zhao Yun, the main general of the guard, was very powerful, and the soldiers were sharp in their bows and arrows, and they failed to attack Huguan for the first time.

After listening to Yuan Shao's complaints, Zhu Jun didn't care whether Yuan Shao's face could be hung or not, and carefully inquired about some details of the siege at that time. For example, "How far can the bow and arrow of the sergeant be closed, how many soldiers can send sh-long arrows, how much time did it take from the beginning of the attack to the withdrawal of the troops, and what was the number of casualties of the vanguard?"

Yuan Shao had no choice but to answer some of Zhu Jun's questions with a red face. Although Zhu Jun's status in the court is not as high as Yuan Kui, he has a heavy army in the world and ranks among the nine kings, and it is not something that he Yuan Shao can offend now.

After listening to Yuan Shao's introduction, Zhu Jun frowned, thought for a while, and then said to the deputy general beside him: "Send someone to summon the generals of the Eastern Route Alliance Army to come to the Chinese army to discuss the matter of attacking Huguan." ”

An hour later, Gongsun Zhan took Tian Yu and Murong Ping, Zhang He took Fu Zhu and Xu You, Tai Shici took Wu Anguo and Chen Deng and others to Lu Zhi's tent, and everyone sat according to the analysis of their positions. Zhu Jun, who represented the imperial court, naturally sat on the main seat in the middle, Yuan Shao, who had sent the most troops, sat on the right hand side next to Zhu Jun, Gongsun Zan sat on Zhu Jun's left hand side, and Qingxu Zhouzhou, who made up the troops, sat outside on behalf of Tai Shici.

Zhu Jun told everyone the results of Yuan Shao's tentative attack on Huguan, and then without waiting for everyone to express their opinions, he said: "I knew that the combat strength of the soldiers in Bingzhou was very strong, but now it seems that it is only stronger than we imagined, and it is bound to be difficult to attack Huguan overnight, and you still need to work together to fight for a long time! Tomorrow, I will lead the imperial court soldiers and horses to attack Huguan, and you will come to the front line to watch the battle with me!"

On the second day, Zhu Jun personally set out from Linxian with 20,000 southern troops, and finally arrived five miles away from Huguan at noon, so he set up camp on the spot, and did not immediately launch a battle to attack the key problems that day. Taking advantage of the afternoon, Zhu Jun led all the generals to a mile outside Huguan and carefully observed the topography and defense situation of Huguan.

After seeing the battlefield on the spot, everyone's hearts were very heavy, because everyone hardly found any flaws in the kettle. The quiet Huguan stood silently, and the defenders in the city could clearly see the situation of the imperial army encamped five miles away, but they did not react at all. This kind of silent and terrible army is either a mourning army that is about to collapse, or a strong force that will not retreat. Judging from Yuan Shao's gray nose a few days ago, the vanguard army guarding Huguan obviously belongs to the latter.

Zhao Yun, who held the "clairvoyance" in his hand, naturally saw Zhu Jun's troops five miles away very early, and after the East Road Coalition Army Field Observation Group under the city approached Huguan, Zhao Yun even saw the solemn look on everyone's faces from the monoculars. If you want to say that the face is a normal person, it is Tai Shi Ci. Zhao Yun had never seen Tai Shici, so how could he recognize this general? Among the three armies that came to besiege Bingzhou this time, Zhao Xing asked Shadow to copy the portraits of real people and send them to the main generals of each army for reference.

Although the Imperial Court has been blockading and annexing the state, the Shadow Troopers with strong penetration and mobility are still active in some areas. The correspondence between Zhao Xing and Kong Rong has never stopped. When Zhao Xing ordered the revised and bound "Four Books and Five Classics" to Kong Rong, one can imagine how moved the mood of this descendant of Confucius would be.

In this attack on Bingzhou, Kong Rong didn't want to get involved, but it was really because of Lu Zhi's face, so he had to let Tai Shici and Wu Anguo lead 10,000 Qingzhou soldiers to come to the eastern front to help. Kong Rongming knew that Zhao Hu, the general of the Zhenbei General's Mansion, did not hesitate to kill people and save Tai Shici's mother, but he still sent Tai Shici as the main general to attack Zhao Xing, and only a few parties understood the mystery in their hearts.

Seeing that Zhu Jun was not in a hurry to attack, Zhao Yun also went down the wall. Instead of standing stupidly at the head of the city, it is better to go back to the inner room of the pass and read more books, anyway, when to launch an attack is the right of the attacker, and the defender only needs to defend it strictly according to the deployment.

The "battlefield observation group" that observed Waihuguan on the spot returned to Zhu Jun's camp, and everyone reunited to discuss the attack plan for tomorrow.

"The bows and arrows of the defenders of the pass are obviously more than ours, judging from their unstingy accumulation, the reserves of arrows in the pass must be very amazing, and if you want to consume the arrows of the guards of the pass, I am afraid that our 130,000 troops are not enough. Frustration told a fact that everyone could not deny.

"Since the Huguan defenders have arrows, we have no choice but to suppress the number of people, tomorrow I will mobilize 8,000 archers to suppress the defenders of the city x-ngsh-attack, so that the defenders of the city do not dare to l-head, take advantage of this gap to order the siege troops to board the pass. Zhu Jun came up with such a simple and easy way to follow the idea of conventional play.

If the longbow regiment guarding the pass was oppressed by the 8,000 archers who were rapidly approaching and could not fight back, then it would have to rely on the heavy infantry guarding Huguan to give full play to the advantages of positional warfare and drive the southern sergeants who risked their lives to climb the pass down the wall. It's just that in this way, the casualties of the vanguard army will rise in a straight line, and I am afraid that this battle will not be easy to fight.

No matter what, the price to pay, the Zhenbei Army has long been mentally prepared, as long as Zhao Yun's figure is always accompanied by the soldiers of Guan, this army, which started from the earliest Yellow Turban Wanderers, will burst out with amazing tenacity and combat effectiveness.
