"Inform the people on the other side of the Qinghe River to take over the city."

"Let's go into town!"

Yang Zhao ordered.

The guards in the city, who were almost killed, quickly took control of everything after entering the city.

"Yangping is not big, and the county is in the southwest of us."

Feng Ming first opened a map, looked at the graphics on it, and said: "After we take the pavilion pottery, the remaining counties such as Dunqiu and Dongwuyang, in addition to surrendering, are the battle of trapped beasts, and they basically have no ability to resist, as long as they leave some people, it is enough to level the whole county." ”

Jia Xu agreed: "The same dialect is reasonable. ”

After Yang Zhao finished reading the map, he pondered for a moment and said: "General Pan, you are more familiar with Jizhou, and I will hand over the other counties in Yangping to you, and after Dangping, you will be stationed in Yangping to prepare for the delivery of our food and armaments, how about it?" ”

"Subordinates take orders!"

Pan Feng naturally had no problem and readily agreed.

Although Yang Zhao also came out of Jizhou, most of his activities before crossing were in Yecheng, and his familiarity with the environment of Jizhou was far less good than that of Pan Feng.

Yang Zhao said again: "Take a day off, and go to Guantao tomorrow, but the news here should be about to reach Guantao, and it shouldn't be easy to attack the county next." ”

"But it's not that hard."

Jia Xu said with a smile: "Our explosives, it is still very easy to blow up the city gate." ”

Feng Ming smiled in agreement: "No matter what city you fight, it's easy to use explosives, but big cities like Yecheng and Xiapi may be more troublesome to fight." ”

They simply arranged that, except for the soldiers on duty, the whole army rested in the city.

Early the next morning.

Yang Zhao integrated the whole army again, continued to set off, walked for about two days, and finally came to the city of Guantao.

As conjectured at the beginning, the news that Yang Zhao attacked Jizhou and Qingyuan was lost has been spread, and the guard in Guantao is the Chun Yuqiong who was drunk and attacked by Cao Cao's nest and finally had his nose cut.

For Yuan Shao, Yangping's current strategic position is very important, and it is still the key to blocking Yang Zhao, and he directly arranged for Chun Yuqiong to lead the troops to garrison.

Just when Gongsun Chan began to attack Jizhou, Chun Yuqiong defended Yang Zhao, increased Qingyuan's troops, and the defense in the county became stricter, but he didn't expect Qingyuan to be taken by Yang Zhao so easily.

Seeing that Yang Zhao's army was already approaching the city, Chun Yuqiong hurriedly prepared for defense, and shouted again: "General, what are you going to do?" ”

Yang Zhao said in a loud voice: "I have been ordered by His Majesty to crusade against Yuan Shao, who has a heart of disobedience, if Kaicheng surrenders, I can spare you from dying!" ”

When he came, he found a reason.

Helping Gongsun Zan attack Yuan Shao and sending troops to Jizhou for his senior brother is not a very good reason, but in the name of Liu Bian, crusading against Buchen and giving Yuan Shao a big hat is better than other reasons.

"Our lord has never been disobedient!"

Chun Yuqiong didn't want to fight Yang Zhao, and tried to persuade Yang Zhao, and continued: "Did the general make a mistake? ”

Yang Zhao raised his head, glanced at him, and said lightly: "At the beginning, Yuan Shaoming knew that His Majesty was in Qingzhou, and he was going to attack Qingzhou, this was the heart of disobedience, His Majesty at that time, he didn't have time to care, now settle down, let me crusade against Yuan Shao." ”

This reason, as good as it sounds.

Yuan Shao did what he did and shouldn't have done.

Chun Yuqiong wanted to say something more, but she didn't know what to say, anyway, she was not convinced that Yang Zhao would withdraw from the army.

"Surrender or not?"

Yang Zhao shouted again.

"Defend the city!"

Chun Yuqiong hesitated to the end, she had no idea of surrendering, and she had to drag it out no matter what.

Yang Zhao said: "General Chunyu, do you really not surrender? ”

Chun Yuqiong said loudly: "General, our original grudge can actually be resolved, there is no need to fight you to the death, or let it go!" ”

"I can't put it down!"

Yang Zhao said again: "Camp in place and attack the city tomorrow, I want to see how long General Chun Yu can defend this city." ”

It is not advisable to attack the city immediately after a long journey.

After they were stationed, they immediately sent troops to surround the four sides of the city to prevent Chun Yuqiong from escaping out of the city.

"General, what should I do?"

A pro-soldier, standing on the castle tower, asked worriedly.

Chun Yuqiong looked at the camp below worriedly, thought for a long time, and said in a deep voice: "Prepare for a night attack tonight." ”

Since they were facing each other head-on, they couldn't win against Yang Zhao, and they thought that Yang Zhao would come from afar, and he must be short of men and horses, so they used some means to force Yang Zhao to retreat, and the only thing they could do was to attack at night.

Soon, it was night.

The moon is bright, and the stars are scarce.

Chun Yuqiong took advantage of the night and led the troops out of the city gate.

The city gates on the four sides have people arranged by Yang Zhao, but the other three city gates, some people are staring, only the east gate is facing Yang Zhao's army, and there is no need for people to keep an eye on the city gate overnight, which gives Chun Yuqiong convenience.

After more than 10,000 soldiers left the city, they went directly to the camp and quickly broke into the gate.

"Enemy attack!"

Yang Zhao's soldiers, without any defense, were killed dozens of people in an instant.

"Kill!"

One of the lieutenants finished speaking loudly, continued to attack, raised his knife and slashed into it fiercely.

Yang Zhao was unprepared, but the soldiers under him had extremely high reaction ability, and instantly made various countermeasures, and some people shouted: "The enemy is coming, beat the drums ......"

Thundered!

A drum beat sounded through the night.

The first to get up were Dian Wei and Xu Chu, who shouted angrily: "Look for death!" ”

The two guards of the dragon and tiger immediately rushed out of the barracks and rushed straight towards the enemy who was attacking at night.

The trapped camp led by Gao Shun also got up, and when he saw that there was really an enemy attacking, he immediately killed him.

After a while, all the soldiers in the camp were awakened and came out in an orderly manner, without panic.

The one who led the troops to attack at night was a deputy general, and he never dreamed that the night attack came suddenly, which was half the success, but the reaction in Yang Zhao's camp would be so fast.

As soon as they were discovered, the intercepting soldiers rushed out like wolves, and they could only fight their way into the gate, and could no longer go deeper into the camp.

"Retreat!"

The lieutenant did not dare to fight again, and shouted loudly.

The enemy soldiers heard this and quickly retreated, but Lü Meng led an army and attacked from the rear and killed them apart.

"Let's go!"

"Keep up with all and protect me from it!"

The lieutenant shouted wildly, and finally let him escape.

The chaotic situation gradually returned to calm.

Yang Zhao walked out of the gate at this time, looked at the city tower of Guantao, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Chun Yuqiong to come to attack at night, so be vigilant tonight, but he didn't dare to come a second time." ”

Feng Ming said: "Chun Yuqiong can't do anything except attack at night, just make the last resistance." ”

"Their last resistance was met by our strictly disciplined forces."

Tai Shici echoed: "You can imagine how desperate Chun Yuqiong will be tomorrow. ”

Don't wait until tomorrow, the current Chun Yuqiong is already desperate.
