It is not surprising that Gongsun Du had the idea of surrendering.

Since it was excavated, Gongsun Du has been galloping in eastern and western Liaodong all the year round, and has been dealing with Huyi such as Wuhuan, Sushen, and Goguryeo.

He has always put the interests of the Han family first and taken it as his responsibility to protect the mountains and rivers of the Han family.

But now, as the years go by, the situation is getting more and more difficult, and even they have lost the replenishment of the Guannai, which makes Gongsun Du often sigh, the great man like the sun and the moon will also perish, not to mention his own persistence.

So after withdrawing to Liaodong, he moved the idea of surrendering, and even he thought that when he stabilized the four counties of Liaodong, he would take these four counties to the Taishan army together, and the marquis was uncertain, but there was still glory and wealth.

But at this historical juncture, especially at the juncture of his personal destiny, fate has come to a fork.

……

Just when Gongsun Du was thinking about whether to reveal a little bit of the meaning of surrender, an old man suddenly rushed in from outside the hall, who was the old servant of the family.

The man stumbled, and as soon as he arrived in the hall, he cried on the ground:

"The lord, the old lord and the young lord are gone."

As soon as these words came out, Gongsun Du's heart was tugging, and finally he listened patiently to the old servant's narration.

It turned out that Gongsun Du's family was actually in Xuansu, the hometown of the four counties in eastern Liaodong.

Back then, his father Gongsun Yan took him to avoid chaos and moved to Xuansu, and it was there that he met the noble man of his life, Xuansuo Taishou Gongsun Chen.

After that, although Gongsun Du's basic plate was in Liaodong, his family, especially his father, wife and children continued to stay in Xuansu.

From the old servant's account, when the Taishan army crossed the Great Liao River, they began to plunder the nearby Wubi Manor.

On the one hand, it can replenish the grain, and on the other hand, it can break the hao and pull up the head of the Qian.

This is the method used by the Taishan Army to start, and it is very familiar.

Because all the forces of Xuansu gathered and cowered under the city of Xuansu, the Taishan army rushed forward and constantly attacked the strong dock wall in the countryside.

Every day, manors are breached.

And every time a wall is broken, there will be enthusiastic servants who will take the Taishan army to the next one. In this way, under the layers of leading the way, the dock wall of Gongsun Du's hometown is naturally not spared.

In this process, Gongsun Du's clansmen rebelled, led by Gongsun Du's eldest son, Gongsun Kang.

In the end, of course, the result was no exception, Gongsun and his family were all killed in battle, and only the young Gongsun Gong escaped back to Liaodong with the help of the old servant.

When he learned that he was left with a young son who was dead, Gongsun Du fainted.

When he woke up again, Gongsun Du was full of anger and decided to raise the Liaodong army and fight to the death with the Taishan army.

……

The next day, Xiangping, on the bank of the Taizi River.

Gongsun Du performed martial arts here, informed the whole army of the anger of the Taishan soldiers and gods, and encouraged the officials and soldiers of the whole army to shed the last drop of blood for the Han family, for the wife and children, and for the clan.

At this moment, on the bank of the Taizi River, as many as 20,000 Liaodong soldiers gathered.

Among them, 3,000 are soldiers of various wealthy families, 5,000 soldiers of the Qu tribe of Youzhou Shi, 2,000 soldiers from the eastern border of Liao, 5,000 remnants of the Zhenbei Army, 3,000 Yiding Tucai, and 5,000 from the eastern part of Wuhuan Liao.

There was also a Goguryeo coalition army of about 8,000 approaching the left, ready to set off together.

Of these huge troops, 3,000 were elite soldiers.

These 3,000 people are not soldiers, but Hu and Han warriors recruited by Gongsun Du, and they are his children. Since entering Liaodong, Gongsun Du has eaten coarse and rough rice, and these 3,000 people are all fine wine and fat sheep. Gongsun Du wore brown linen clothes, and these 3,000 people rode all in a dazzling manner.

And now it's time to let these people die.

And because most of these households in Liaodong are Liuyu soldiers from the three prefectures of Qing, You, and Hebei, it can be said that these armed forces are both prosperous and lossy.

They knew that if these Liaodong soldiers were destroyed, they would not be able to survive here.

Therefore, once Gongsun Du showed them the determination to fight to the death, these people also ruined their families and sent all the children of the clan into the army.

It can be said that for these Northland heroes who are about to be eliminated by the times, this is their last battle.

At this time, on the viewing platform, looking at the tiger and the male division on the bank of the Taizi River. The confidence of these northern heroes soared, and they paid cattle wine to comfort the Liaodong soldiers, hoping that they would be victorious.

And surrounded by a group of Liaodong athletes, under the influence of the history of Pingzhou, Gongsun Du was on a high seat, and saw the Pixiu tigers and leopards lined up under him, and the strong men were in armor with troops, and they shouted with great ambition:

"Expel the moth thief and help the Han family!"

The Liaodong soldiers below were all shouting:

"Expel the moth thief and help the Han family!"

Its sound shook the mountains and rivers, and the martial arts were clear.

Seeing this, Gongsun Du asked the tall scholar beside him, who was also the one who sang and read the letter for help yesterday:

"Xin'er, how is my soldier?"

This person is Li Min's son Li Xin, who later worshiped Gongsun Du as his father-in-law.

Li Xin bowed respectfully, and said with sincerity:

"This heavenly soldier is also, a martial arts event that I haven't seen in Liaodong for a hundred years."

Then Gongsun Du shouted:

"Can you take revenge on the country's hatred?"

Among them, the last word of family hatred jumped out from the gap between his teeth, which shows how Gongsun Du gritted his teeth.

And after Li Xin heard this, he was also shocked, and he avenged his father's ambition, the voice of Jin Tie:

"If you mention this tiger ben, why don't you break it, who can stop it? I believe that I will work with my father-in-law to expel the moth thieves and help the Han family! ”

Gongsun Du directly held Li Xin's hand and said movingly:

"Okay, you and my father and son will go into battle together, this time it will not be revenge and blood hatred!"

In the end, Gongsun Du killed the white ox and white horse, sacrificed to the heavens, and then erected a banner and wrote the three hatreds:

"National hatred", "family hatred", "chaos".

In this way, the three armies of Liaodong slaughtered towards Xuansu City, which was one hundred and fifty miles away to the north.

……

At this time, under the city of Xuansu, the Taishan army did not know that the reinforcements from Liaodong had been sent, and the entire battlefield remained calm.

In a tent, the young Guan Ping was writing letters from home on plain paper.

Because Guan Yu doesn't like shade and thinks that the fame of a good man will be taken immediately, so now Guan Ping's identity is only known to Zhang Chong and other upper-level officials, and the rest is known by Tai Shi Ci alone.

At this time, in his single tent, Guan Ping showed the youth and straightforwardness of a young man, and in a letter to Guan Yu, he wrote:

"Father, is my mother in good health? Are all the elders and children in the family okay? Winter is coming, my mother's legs have been clammy and cold, I hunted a fox skin a few days ago, and I have asked a friend to make it for my mother. ”

"I now live in the same camp with Brother Ziyi, and before that, we had just crossed the Great Liaoshui and rushed to Xuansu. When Xuansu was laid, Xiangping was in sight. I think I'll be able to return to Fenggao in a month's sleep. ”

"There is one thing that I want my father to help with, and that is that my son is short of money in the army. It's not that I'm addicted to gambling in the army, it's to maintain the dignity of a team leader. Many of the brothers in the army told me that their families were in trouble and borrowed money from me. I'm sure I'm going to borrow it, and they can't pay it back for a while. But now that the army is in Liaodong, I have encountered a lot of good leather, and I want to buy a batch of them back and make a jacket for my family. So father, please send me another three thousand dollars, quick! Otherwise, the leather materials were all bought in the army's robes. ”

"Also, after my son came out this time, he was crowned, and if he wanted his father to tell his son a matchmaker, he would find Donglai. I often hear Brother Ziyi say that Donglai women are tall and white and fit, and I admire them. So I asked my father to ask me if there were any good families in Donglai's brothers, and I would see it when my son came back. This matter is also very urgent. ”

"There is also an urgent matter, that is, on the way to the East, there was a son of Fenggao who died of illness on the side of the road, and his bones had been collected by the military commander, but I still want to ask my father to deduct a sum of money from me and send it to his family to show my respect for him. I will write the address of his house at the end of the article, and ask my father to entrust it to someone to handle it. ”

"Finally, there is an urgent matter, a few days ago, the king feasted all the generals, and his son was in the list. The king asked me how to govern Liao if Liaodong arrived. The son was speechless when asked, and felt that he had lost his father's face. So I want to ask my father, if it were a father, how would he answer? ”

"In the end, your good eldest brought you a Liaodong old ginseng, which is your son's trophy. Special nourishment for my father. ”

After writing the letter home, Guan Ping wrapped a chopstick-sized old ginseng in a cloth, and then shouted outside:

"Ah Sheng, come in quickly."

Then a little official opened the big tent and came in, with a chicken leg in his mouth, and oil was dripping from his mouth.

He first gave a skewer of barbecue to Guan Ping, and then listened to Guan Ping:

"You take the bag and my letter to find Lao Zhang, this round of the post is about to go, you hurry up."

The young general named Guo Sheng nodded hurriedly, and was about to set off with the package.

But at this time, on the Qipan Mountain in the northeast, where the Chinese army is located, there were earth-shattering war drums.

Guan Ping shouted:

"Ah Sheng, go quickly. It's going to be a big battle in a while! ”

After speaking, the one named Guo Sheng had disappeared.

……

Whether inside or outside the city, when the war drums on the chessboard mountain are playing, everyone's peace is over.

The reason for the outbreak of the war is very simple.

It turned out that he was camping in the south of the city and waiting for the city camp, but for some reason, he suddenly launched an attack on the Taishan army in the north of the city.

The number of this battalion was not large, but there was a cavalry regiment of about 200 people, led by the cavalry general He Xian.

He Xian is from Kansai and is an authentic Kansai martial artist.

He followed Lu Zhi out of Hebei and later participated in almost all the major battles, including the final Nightmare Battle of Renting.

In that battle, many of He Xian's Paoze clan relatives were killed, and only he came down with the rout, and then he went all the way to Liaodong.

Today he drank in the camp, the more he drank, the more sad he became, thinking that outside was the enemy of his siblings, He Xian was drunk, naked, carrying a horse and scolding angrily in front of the Taishan military camp.

On the opposite side, it was Tai Shici's cavalry regiment, hearing such abuse from the other side, and went directly out of the camp to fight.

Na He Xian is also a fierce general, but he met Tai Shici.

In the end, He Xian was hit by four arrows and retreated to the north gate of Xuansu.

And I don't know if it was He Xian's brave and daring to fight that made the soldiers at the north gate surging, or other reasons, in short, the north gate suddenly opened.

And this was discovered by Zhang Chong, who was watching the battle, and directly drummed the horn company battalion, and the whole army went to battle!
