Five hundred and fifty-nine Yuan Shao, you are not human
What Tian Kai and Yan Gang were worried about did not happen after all, they thanked Dong Zhuo for his help, took out the stored grain, wine and meat in the city to thank Dong Zhuo, and invited them to eat and drink.
Dong Zhuo led his troops to rest under Fanyang City for a day, cleaned up the battlefield, counted the results and losses, and then, Dong Zhuo and Tian Kai Yangang joined forces and marched to Zhuoxian County together.
They didn't have time to discuss anything, and Dong Zhuo was even more anxious to make meritorious contributions, so he didn't say anything, and led his troops to move closer to Zhuoxian, wanting to join forces with Gongsun Zan to defeat Yuan Shao.
Koji Yi fled to the city of Zhuoxian with a very fast speed, and was surprised to find that the reinforcements sent by Yuan Shao had not yet set off, and immediately felt very helpless, and Yuan Shao was greatly annoyed when he learned the news of Koji's defeat, and denounced Koji for being incompetent and wanted to behead Koji.
The strategists around Yuan Shao quickly persuaded Yuan Shao not to be angry, it was not a good thing to kill the generals in battle, so Yuan Shao gave Liyi a chance, and asked Liyi to set off with the reinforcements sent by the general to defeat Dong Zhuo and recapture Fanyang City.
In this regard, Lu Yi felt helpless, and advised Yuan Shao not to divide his troops to attack Fanyang, and now Dong Zhuo led the cavalry to support, if the field battle, Yuan Shao's army would fall into disadvantage.
It is better to rely on the advantages of a large number of soldiers and a wide range of generals and relatively good defense facilities here, attract Dong Zhuo's soldiers and horses here, rely on the large battalion to carry out defensive operations, eliminate Dong Zhuo's advantage in the assault cavalry, and then find an opportunity to eliminate Dong Zhuo.
This suggestion made Yuan Shao think that he was greedy for life and afraid of death, and would put his army in a dilemma of being attacked from both sides, and he was very angry.
However, Lu Yi's suggestion was supported by Tian Feng, who also believed that it was not a good way to divide the troops at the moment, and in the face of the Tuzhou Cavalry, Yuan Shao's army was indeed insufficient.
Yuan Shao believed in Tian Feng very much, Tian Feng said this, he was not easy to refute, after thinking about it, he still decided to let Lu Yi wear the crime and make meritorious service, and defend the camp alone in the face of Dong Zhuo and others' attack, and be responsible for defense.
Lu Yi then took back his life, had relatives, took 10,000 troops to build a large camp, set up various professional tools to deal with cavalry, and then waited for Dong Zhuo's army to arrive.
At the same time, in the face of Yuan Shao's all-out attack, Gongsun Chan also fought back with all his might, and Yuan Shao's attack on Zhuo County was never carried out smoothly, and the situation was about to get worse.
However, at this moment, the Xianbei and Wuhuan people have won.
They all won great victories in Liaoxi County, Youbeiping County, and Guangyang County, and at the point where Dong Zhuo's reinforcements arrived, the resistance of the officers and troops in Yuyang County also failed.
Yuyang County Shou Rao Bin was seriously injured and died, and the generals were guarding the county seat, except for the county magistrate, other places could not be taken care of.
The situation in Youzhou deteriorated further, and at that time, the Xianbei people were mainly wreaking havoc in Youbeiping County, Yuyang County and Guangyang County, while the Wuhuan people were mainly wreaking havoc in Liaoxi County and Liaodong County, Liaodong Subjects and other places.
At present, on the Liaodong Corridor, only Liaodong County Shougongsun Du is still leading the army to fight against the Wuhuan people, and has not been defeated, and even achieved some victories, but Liaodong County to the west and Zhuo County to the east, it is already a "happy land" ravaged by the Xianbei and Wuhuan people.
So according to the previous agreement, after the Xianbei lords Suli and Micah obtained great benefits, plundered a large number of property, and the population was enjoyed, they were very satisfied with Yuan Shao's "efforts", so they personally led people to the direction of Zhuojun and began to support Yuan Shao, plundering along the way.
On the eighth day of the first month of December, Dong Zhuo led the troops to the south of Zhuo County, where he faced the southern camp led by Lu Yi, in order to humiliate and deter Lu Yi, Dong Zhuo gave Yan Liang's head to Lu Yi, who was very surprised and regretful after seeing it, but there was no wavering of will.
He can't fight in the field, but he has confidence in defensive operations.
For this defensive battle, Lu Yi made a lot of preparations, dug a lot of pits, prepared a lot of horse rejection and crossbowmen, he believed that if Dong Zhuo wanted to pass through these obstacles, he needed to drain his blood and put his life on the line.
In the face of his absolute defense, the Tun Cha could not play much of a role.
The facts are similar, in the face of the hedgehog-like absolute defense, Dong Zhuo's subordinates, who are good at field warfare, are a little embarrassed, but Tian Kai and Yan Gang's subordinates under Gongsun Zhan used some siege equipment to attack, which posed some threats to Koji Yi.
But on the whole, progress has been slow, and the battle has been more difficult.
On the ninth day of the twelfth month, 30,000 Xianbei cavalry, led by Su Li and Miga, arrived in Zhuo County and came to support Yuan Shao as agreed.
Gongsun Chan hid in the turtle shell and couldn't come out, but Dong Zhuo was outside, if they could make a move to defeat Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao would be very happy.
Sully and Micah smiled and nodded in agreement, but they had a few small requests.
They want Upper Valley and Daishi.
The original agreement was not enough, and they wanted more fertile land and more slaves.
Yuan Shao was a little dissatisfied with this, and Tian Feng was also a little dissatisfied with this, saying that they were sitting on the ground and starting an inch, which was not beneficial to future cooperation.
But the threat of Sully and Micah is much more real.
"I heard that Liu Bei, the general of Luoyang, is leading his army north, if we leave now, it will be fine, and we don't want anything, but you may face great danger, right?"
"Which of the two counties, or the whole world, do you think is more valuable?"
Su Li and Micah obviously did their homework, and they were definitely not blind to the current situation in the Han Empire, they were bad and cunning, and they bit at Yuan Shao's weakness.
Yuan Shao was very angry, but there was no way, what these two people were talking about was indeed the predicament he was currently facing.
In desperation, Yuan Shao could only agree to this condition, give up Daijun and Shanggu County, and hand them over to Su Li and Mica to divide internally, and divide love as much as he wants, anyway, it has nothing to do with him.
Su Li and Micah's conditions were met, so there was nothing to say, they still had this basic work ethic to take people's money and eliminate disasters with people, and then they sent troops south to find Dong Zhuo's trouble.
Dong Zhuo was passionately facing the line with Liyi, and suddenly received a battle report, saying that a huge Xianbei cavalry was rapidly moving south, and the number was far greater than the number of his army.
This news made Dong Zhuo very surprised, he calculated the number of his soldiers and horses, thought about how he would fight in case the Xianbei people arrived, and whether he could continue to fight the possibility, after thinking about it, he decided to retreat.
A few days ago, he got news from Liu Bei, saying that Liu Bei was leading an army of 50,000 to the north, and it would take some time to arrive, and he hoped that the army fighting in Youzhou would continue to hold on, and if he didn't give up, he would definitely come.
Dealing with the Xianbei people, Liu Bei is an absolute expert, which the Han people know.
So Dong Zhuo no longer hesitated, agreed with Tian Kai and Yan Gang, quickly retreated and returned to Fanyang County, relying on the defense of Fanyang County, insisting on defense, and refusing to fight with the Xianbei people, so as to wait until Liu Bei arrived.
Tian Kai and Yan Gang had no opinion, so everyone quickly withdrew the army at night, and Lu Yi, who was still insisting on defense, did not notice it, and when he found out that Dong Zhuo had withdrawn early the next morning, it was too late.
In fact, it was a night of time difference, the Xianbei cavalry arrived at the defensive camp of Liyi, and learned that Dong Zhuo had retreated, Su Li and Micah laughed at Dong Zhuo fiercely, despised the strength of the Han army even more, and then continued to lead the army south to pursue Dong Zhuo.
To be honest, after this fight, Sully and Micah are very cool.
All kinds of burning, killing and looting, obtaining a large number of property and slaves, their assets have expanded more than ten times, and the majority of their subordinates can also get a piece of the pie, and the wealth of the entire tribe has swelled dramatically, and after this war, they can live a good life for a long time.
But after entering the land of Zhuo County, they were a little unhappy, because Zhuo County had been swept by Yuan Shao's army, and it was already equivalent to a blank land.
In the matter of looting and harming the people, the professional skills of Yuan Shao's department still exceed the professional skills of the Xianbei people, whether the Xianbei people are outsiders, some twists and turns do not understand, the skill of scraping the ground, or their own people are stronger.
Therefore, the Xianbei people had the heart to plunder while marching, but there was nothing to plunder, so they could only scold Yuan Shao for not being a person, and at the same time go south to pursue Dong Zhuo.
Finally caught up, Dong Zhuo had already led people to retreat into Fanyang City, and began to defend the city, the Xianbei people could not give full play to the advantage of cavalry, so they could only besiege the city while attacking, and at the same time did not forget to send people south into Jizhou to continue plundering.
It's all here, you can't go back empty-handed, right?
As a result, the northern areas of Zhongshan and Hejian were plundered by the Xianbei cavalry, and a group of Xianbei cavalry invaded the local area.
Fortunately, the locals were prepared, and after hearing about the chaos in Youzhou, they set up a village to defend themselves, and they were careful not to repeat the mistakes of the Youzhou people.
The Xianbei cavalry's plundering plan did not achieve great results, and the battle itself in Fanyang County was not successful, and Dong Zhuo fought a resolute defensive counterattack and lost some men and horses.
However, this situation ended around December 12.
Because Liu Bei's army was in a hurry, they arrived.
