Chapter 273: Shock

Chun Yuqiong really wondered why Yan Liang failed so quickly, it would take an hour or two for five thousand pigs to stand here and be killed, and the only possibility was that the enemy's strength was several times that of Yan Liang. This place is defenseless, and it is clearly carefully arranged.

Under Guo Tu's reminder, Chun Yuqiong immediately dispatched scouts to rush back, while ordering the whole army to be ready to leave at any time, only sent more than 200 people to continue to search for survivors on the battlefield, he was here to attack Hanoi, and it was not a way to rush back without knowing the news, and there was no way to explain to Yecheng when he went back.

There was a real survivor on the battlefield, an infantryman lying under the corpse of a companion in the grove, he was a lieutenant's own soldier, and when he fled with his lieutenant, he was chased by the enemy's heavy infantry from the west and cut to the ground, fainted on the spot, and then another companion fell on him, he had just woken up and was not discovered by the enemy.

Chun Yuqiong hurriedly asked someone to bandage this person while asking anxiously.

"What the hell is going on here? What about your vanguard, General Yan Liang? ”

His soldier had fainted from pain???????????????? In the past, now he said with a pale face: "General, retreat quickly, they are the devil ......"

Chun Yuqiong's eyes widened: "Say human words!" ”

It was the illness that was shocked by his momentum, and his voice raised a little: "They sent out five thousand heavy cavalry, that is, the kind of cavalry with full armor and war horses in leather armor, charging from both ends of the grove, and at least three or four thousand light cavalry outside the woods to intercept the fleeing people, and we hid in the woods and they sent out heavy infantry...... General, get out of the way. ”

Although Chun Yuqiong was still very angry, he learned a very important news from the mouth of this soldier, that is, in order to deal with Yan Liang's five thousand vanguards, Wei Xuan dispatched nearly nine thousand cavalry, of which more than five thousand were heavy cavalry, and two thousand heavy infantry, so much iron made of armor from where he came?

No wonder the battle ended so quickly, no wonder no more people escaped. If he came in person, he would have managed to escape from here. Immediately, Chun Yuqiong's back was cold, so many cavalry, if they were going to attack their own baggage team......

Chun Yuqiong was unwilling to continue to ask: "How is the enemy's individual combat strength?" What about General Yan Liang, he should be able to break out of the encirclement with his personal guards? ”

"General, quickly retreat, if we are surrounded by them, no matter how many of us are, we will not be able to escape. The enemy's heavy cavalry was not afraid of General Yan Liang and his personal guards at all, and the personal guards were basically cut down by someone in front of them. General Yan Liang was forced to retreat into the infantry formation without killing a single enemy, but the enemy advanced from the west and killed him directly, and the enemy general knocked General Yan Liang off his horse in three or four rounds. General Yan Liang fled into the woods in the north under the desperate escort of everyone, and finally got out of the woods, and successfully led people to rob more than 20 war horses, but was stabbed off his horse and taken prisoner by a white-robed young general of the enemy before he ran a few steps. However, General Yan Liang's injury should not be very serious, but the enemy general was too brave, and Yan Liang Jingjun only had the power to parry from beginning to end. ”

Chun Yuqiong now seriously suspects that this soldier with a Jizhou accent is Wei Xuan's spy and specially stayed to shake his army's heart. What is called ordinary cavalry is not afraid of Yan Liang, who is Yan Liang, and the entire Jizhou is also one of the best generals. There is also an enemy who randomly comes out of a general and knocks Yan Liang off the horse in three or five rounds, and then comes to capture Yan Liang directly in three or five rounds, is Yan Liang a pioneer who has fallen off the horse?

Angry is angry, the corpse in front of him should be the fault of the Jizhou soldiers, Yan Liang is only five thousand people, basically all of them are here. Then the enemy solves the battle very quickly indeed.

Moreover, Chunyun Qian also felt that the enemy was demonstrating, because no matter how elite the army was, some people would definitely choose to surrender when their side had no chance of winning at all, Yan Liang had 5,000 people, and at least 1,000 people surrendered in battle. But now there are only 5,000 corpses, which shows that the Wei Xuanjun does not leave prisoners, in order to deter!

Not only to deter the 25,000 people he brought, but also to deter the entire Jizhou.

Chun Yuqiong wanted to ask more from the soldier's mouth, but saw that the man had closed his eyes tiredly. Immediately after that, the scout who had been sent back came to Chun Yuqiong with an anxious face, looked around, and whispered: "General, all the baggage of our army has been destroyed, the flames are soaring, and more than 2,000 people have been killed and wounded, and the rest are estimated to have fled. ”

As expected, it was no wonder that Wei Xuan had so many cavalry who did not attack his baggage. ???????????????? Fortunately, his army was not far from Wei County, and he also carried two days' worth of grain and grass with the army. Now it is only the loss of some grain and grass, but it will not affect the morale of the army. However, Chun Yuqiong felt that these people were not too easy to let themselves go like this. That's more than 9,000 cavalry, and if he fights against himself in this empty plain, Chun Yuqiong feels that his chances of winning are almost none. The only pit is that Hu Weixia, who is in the guard, escapes.

But the enemy did not choose a decisive battle, but only attacked the baggage or for deterrence.

In the end, Chun Yuqiong decided to temporarily retreat to Wei County, and then send more scouts to reconnoiter the enemy's situation, and at the same time, Pegasus reported that Yuan Shao, who had come to Yecheng.

Yecheng, Yuan Shao is full of spirits, he has been carefully brewing for so long and he finally became the lord of Jizhou, and then he wants to defeat the invincible Wei Xuan head-on, so that the world will also know how powerful he Yuan Shao is, and by the way, he will deter Zhang Yan of Montenegro and Liyi and Gongsun Zan in the north.

It's just that his old friend Chun Yuqiong, the general of the expedition, doesn't seem to understand his mood, and when night falls, Yuan Shao is half-drunk in the mansion of Ye County Order, and he is intoxicated by the graceful figures of several girls dancing in the center, thinking about which one to choose to sleep in the night or take them all away to play slowly.

A military marquis hurriedly came in and handed over an urgent military newspaper, the word was Chun Yuqiong's words, just look at the cover Yuan Shao to know, but it was not what Yuan Shao wanted to hear: "Today, between Chensi, the pioneer Yan Liang encountered the enemy, fought for two hours, and was outnumbered and annihilated!" ”

Yuan Shao is like five thunderbolts, what is called being outnumbered and annihilated, it is five thousand Jizhou elites, in less than two hours. What does Yan Liang eat that waste for? And Chun Yuqiong, don't you still have 25,000 people behind you? He held back the anger in his heart and continued to look down, the more he looked, the more he felt that Chun Yuqiong was farting, saying what Wei Xuan dispatched 5,000 heavy cavalry, 4,000 light cavalry, and 2,000 heavy infantry, does he know what heavy cavalry is? If nothing else, is 7,000 sets of armor so easy to get? Wei Xuan's army can be regarded as a supplement with war horses at most, what is called heavy cavalry?

This is not over, the last general is in a hurry to rescue, and as a result, the baggage is attacked, and the grain and grass are all destroyed! Although Chun Yuqiong carried not much grain and grass, it was enough for him to eat 30,000 people for half a month, Yan Liang is a waste can still be said to be brave and strategic, you Chun Yuqiong knows that there is a battle ahead, but you can still leave your baggage to rescue?

If Chun Yuqiong hadn't played with him since he was a child, Yuan Shao would even have to wonder if he was bought by Wei Xuan. However, Yuan Shao's bad mood did not get better, because Neihuang also came with news, and the person who came was obviously the master of Neihuang, and as soon as he entered the door, he knelt and kowtowed: "Lord, Wei Xuan sent 3,000 troops to attack Neihuang this morning, Neihuang was outnumbered and occupied by thieves." The county order abandoned the city and fled, and the county commander and the county lieutenant died in battle! ”

Bar, the wine glass fell to the ground, Yuan Shao was stunned, and they all discussed it to fool him, he was outnumbered, and it was the county commander of his own people who actually ran away, but the county lieutenant who had not yet opened the machine was replaced and died.

I am the third prince of the fourth world, I am the lord of Jizhou, I can't panic and be seen as a joke, I endure, I endure! Yuan Shao warned himself in his heart over and over again, but the next news made him unable to help it.

This time it was a messenger from the north: "My lord, a cavalry of 2,000 men suddenly appeared on the border between Wei County and Zhao State, one man and two horses, our army was outnumbered and defeated, and they robbed us of a lot of grain and grass, and the surplus grain ???????????????? The grass was destroyed by fire. Hundreds of people were killed, and the rest fled. ”

It's invincible again, and it's a cavalry raid! As soon as the army of 30,000 entered Henickel, it was completely annihilated, and two baggage were destroyed! Why is this war so difficult? Yuan Shao had to admit that Wei Xuan's actual combat experience was much richer than him, from the Baibo army to the Funiu bandits, to Kong Ling's night attack to defeat Dong Zhuo head-on. This is the first time I have led troops to fight, and I was slapped by Wei Xuan on the left and on the right, it really hurts.

Originally, he wanted to defeat Wei Xuan in person to deter Zhang Yan, Lu Yi and Gongsun Zhan and others, but now it seems that they can only be seen as jokes.

Without food and grass, he must raise it as soon as possible, but judging from the current strength shown by Wei Xuan, 25,000 infantry is no opponent of others at all, because they are cavalry, all cavalry. It is impossible for his 25,000 people to act together all the time, and once they disperse, they will definitely be swallowed by Wei Xuan.

The Yecheng County Order, who was accompanied by the side, was also thundered by the news. Only the prison guards who were forcibly pulled over by Yuan Shao sat there silent, quickly digesting the news in their minds.

Seeing Yuan Shao sitting there in a daze, he couldn't bear to stand up and said: "Duke Ming, there are guards in the north and south of Yecheng, and when General Chun Yuqiong is ordered to return to Yecheng, there is a danger that Jizhou will be divided between the north and the south." ”

Yuan Shao still hadn't recovered from the shock, and he asked unwillingly, "Prison Army, is Wei Zhongdao's army so strong?" ”

Raise your hand and smile bitterly, "How the combat strength of Wei Zhengxi's army is, we will know when General Chun Yuqiong comes back, but it shouldn't be bad to be able to defeat Dong Zhuoxi's elite." General Yan Liang is the best proof of this. ”

Yuan Shao continued to ask in despair: "Prison Army, what should the current situation be?" ”

Fu Zhu thought for a while and said: "Duke Ming, first recall General Chun Yuqiong, although the guards are stronger, the number of cavalry is limited after all, and it is not suitable for attacking the city. Let's see the movements of the army of Wei Zhengxi tomorrow. If Neihuang's Wei Jun continued to move north, the Duke of Ming would order General Chun Yuqiong to stay on the spot and immediately recruit young men in the state. ”
