Chapter 152: Gongsun Chan is defeated, and Yuzhou is lost
The first year of Yonghan, the beginning of February.
Gongsun Zhan, the general of Fenwu, personally led an army of more than 20,000 troops and set up a position 20 miles south of Pushui.
With Yan Gang and Zou Dan as the left and right wings, each with 5,000 troops, Gongsun Zhan personally led an army of 10,000 as the Chinese army, waiting for Yuan Shu.
Yuan Shu rode a tall horse, holding a sword, and looked at Gongsun Zhan's camp with both eyes, with a look of hesitation.
Next to him stood a middle-aged man in a coarse cloth coat, bent over his waist, and with a withered expression.
Yuan Shu glanced at him and said loudly: "Yuan Hao, do you think I can defeat Gongsun Zhan?" ”
Tian Feng didn't seem to hear it, and didn't respond at all.
Yuan Shu didn't care, and said with a laugh: "Let's bet, if I can defeat Gongsun Zhan, how about you faithfully assist me?" ”
Tian Feng still turned a deaf ear.
Yuan Shu's expression sank and he snorted coldly.
This Tian Feng is a retainer of their Yuan family, but they never thought that this Tian Feng would not be loyal to him!
"Yuan Gong, Lu Yi will fight for Gong Yuan, and he will defeat Gongsun Zan for Gong Yuan, and take his head!" Koji Yi stood up from the side and said loudly.
Koji Yi is a short and strong man, with a face full of disdain for Tian Feng.
"Good!"
Yuan Shu took out a talisman, threw it to Lu Yi, and said in a deep voice: "If you win the first battle, I will ask Han Gong for you!" ”
Koji Yi was borrowed by Yuan Shu from Han Fu.
"Thank you Gong Yuan!" Koji Yi took the talisman, turned around and got on his horse and left.
Soon after, Ko Yi took 5,000 soldiers and horses, spread out, and confronted Gongsun Zhan's army not far away.
His army was very complex, with crossbowmen, shieldmen, cavalry, infantry, and so on.
Ji Ling, the newly appointed general of Yuan Shu, saw it and said to Yuan Shu: "Duke Yuan, there is about to be a big battle here, why don't you go back to the camp first and wait for a big victory." ”
Yuan Shugao raised his head and said loudly: "When a big husband acts, he is not afraid of sword soldiers!" Today I want to capture Gongsun Chan alive and stand up for the world! ”
When Ji Ling heard this, he looked admiring.
The other soldiers are also excited, their lord is really not an ordinary person, and he will achieve great things!
Gongsun Zhan saw Lu Yi approaching with 5,000 people, stood on top of the military chariot, watched from a distance, and laughed: "Yuan Shuxiao'er, but only 5,000 people, he actually dares to call for battle!" Pass my general order, charge on the left and right wings, kill all these 5,000 people for me, and capture Yuan Shu'er alive! ”
"Order!"
The heralds rode away, flags blazing, and orders were loudly announced.
Yan Gang got the order, and without saying a word, he took the lead in sending troops.
"Kill!"
Gongsun Zhan's left and right wings, the flags were unfurled, and the shouts of killing were like thunder, and they went straight to the camp of Ko Yi.
Yan Gang took the lead, taking the lead, and the cavalry behind him was like the wind, like a sharp sword, straight into the center of the Koji Righteous Army.
Koji Yi did not panic, stood in the middle of the military formation, and shouted: "Set up a shield! ”
The shield soldiers at the front of the formation raised their shields one after another, and then put them on the ground, and all the soldiers hid behind their shields.
"Capture Yuan Shu'er alive!"
Gongsun Zhan's white horse righteous horse's hooves sounded like thunder, like an earthquake, and the momentum was surging.
Koji Yi stood in the middle of the military formation, his eyes were cold, and he kept calculating the distance, until these cavalry approached, but the distance was only fifty zhang, and he suddenly said in a deep voice: "Strong crossbowman, shoot!" ”
The archers behind the shields lined up, and thousands of arrows shot out, like a rain of arrows, flying towards the white horse.
Donkey shh~
Gongsun Zhan's cavalry was caught off guard, and there was a big chaos all of a sudden.
The crossbowmen fired repeatedly, and Bai Ma Yicong fell to the ground one after another, and the infantry following behind him had no time to dodge, and fled in panic.
Gongsun Zhan's left and right wings instantly became a mess, desperately running and trampling.
"The enemy formation is in chaos, kill!"
When Koji Yi saw it, he got on his horse violently, drew a big knife, and rushed to hit the horse.
5,000 men turned to the siege and killed Gongsun Zhan's left and right flanks.
was already in chaos, there was no resistance at all, and the side that was killed by Koji Yi fell down, and the rout was like a tide.
Yan Gang fought hard and did not retreat.
"Gongsun Chan is nothing more than that!"
Koji Yi came to the front and fought with Yan Gang.
"Koji Yi'er is rampant!"
Yan Gang's right flank was scattered and could not be organized at all, and he fought with Koji Yi to encourage the soldiers.
"Kill!"
Koji Yi grabbed Yan Gang and swung his knife violently, cutting Yan Gang off his horse.
"Attack!"
Yuan Shu behind him saw the great victory, his heart was ecstatic, he directly pulled out his saber and said loudly behind him.
The banner of the 20,000-strong army was suddenly opened, shouting and killing like a wave, moving forward wave by wave, and the morale was rumbling and rushing forward.
Gongsun Chan tried his best to stabilize it, but the front army was scattered and the chasing troops were approaching, so he couldn't suppress the chaos at all.
"Retreat!"
Gongsun Zhan is a veteran of the battlefield, and he made a quick decision, retreated to Pushui with 10,000 intact people, and lined up in camp.
"Hold this bridge and wait for the opportunity to fight again!"
Gongsun Chan stood on the horse, his face calm, and he was not flustered.
Yan Gang died in battle, Zou Dan did not know whether he was alive or dead in the chaotic army, he commanded the army to line up, preparing to use the river bridge as a stronghold.
Koji Yi's morale was fierce, and he chased and killed to the river bridge, not delaying at all, and killing him in the face.
"Gongsun Xiao'er, today Grandpa Lingji will teach you how to fight!"
Koji Yoshishi was very proud, led the army, without any bells and whistles, and rushed directly.
There are also 20,000 reinforcements from Yuan Shu in the rear, and at a glance, the mountains are all over the field, and there is no end in sight.
Gongsun Zhan's soldiers and horses, who were already in turmoil, were even more panicked when they saw the situation, and Lu Yi was just an impact, and Gongsun Zhan's 10,000 people suddenly formed as if they exploded, and they were torn apart, without the power to resist.
Koji Yi was even more excited, charged forward, and roared angrily: "Where is Gongsun Xiao'er?" Capture him alive for Grandpa! ”
The morale of the Koji army was strong, with more enemies and fewer enemies, without fear, and desperately rushed to kill.
Gongsun Zhan's eyes were red, and the army of 20,000 was defeated like this almost as soon as he saw it!
"General!"
Zou Dan rushed over with the remnants of the soldiers, grabbed him, and said, "If you don't leave, it's too late!" ”
"Fight to the death!" Gongsun Chan was willing to retreat, shouting to kill him.
Zou Dan pulled him hard and said urgently: "General, it won't work today, we will retreat to Yangcheng to reorganize our troops, and we can fight again, if we don't leave, we really can't leave!" ”
Seeing that Yuan Shu's reinforcements were about to arrive, Gongsun Zhan gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "Pass my order, retreat!" ”
Zou Dan knew how much hatred Gongsun Chan had in his heart, but he also tried his best to let Gongsun Chan withdraw first.
Yuan Shu's army arrived and slaughtered the remnants of Gongsun Zhan.
Yuan Shu rode a horse, laughed with Tian Feng and Ji Ling on the side, and said: "Gongsun Zhan is a so-called famous general outside the Saiwai, but that's it!" Zhengjun gets rid of thieves, just today! ”
"Yuan Gong is mighty!" Ji Ling was behind Yuan Shu, raised his hand and said loudly.
Yuan Shu listened, his heart was extremely refreshing, he looked in the direction of Luoyang, and shouted: "Pass my order, pursue Gongsun Xiao'er, set foot on Yingchuan, and rank in Luoshui!" Follow me to recover Luoyang, get rid of thieves, and make immortal achievements! ”
Tian Feng's expression on the side changed immediately, and he suddenly said: "No!" ”
Yuan Shu's excited face turned cold, his eyes flashed with murderous intent, he looked at Tian Feng, and said lightly: "What does Yuan Hao teach me?" ”
Tian Feng grimaced and said, "Don't you forget, Chen Guo still has Dong Zhuo's 30,000 army, there is Xuzhou Tao Qian's 20,000 army in the east, and Jingzhou Thorn Shi Wang Rui in the south." What would you do if you go north and they raid Runan? ”
Ji Ling was excited, and hurriedly said: "Yuan Gong, what Tian Sima said is reasonable, Runan must not be lost!" ”
Yuan Shu had more murderous intent in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "What Yuan Hao said is reasonable. When I set foot on Yingchuan, I will fight to the death with the old thief Dong Zhuo! If the family and the country hate it, I will slash the old thief! ”
When Tian Feng heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Lord!"
At this time, a soldier hurried over and said: "There is a person whose surname is Xu Mingyu Ziyuan, who is said to be an old friend of the lord in the eastern capital, and knows that the lord has done great things, so he has come to join the army to help." ”
Yuan Shu didn't care, and said lightly: "The old man of Luoyang, please sit down, and it's not too late for me to exterminate Gongsun Xiao'er!" ”
Tian Feng listened on the sidelines, his heart heavy.
This Yuan Shu defeated Gongsun Zhan, and his prestige is bound to be unprecedented, and he doesn't know how many villains will come to defect and chase fame and fortune!
'Han ......'
Tian Feng looked in the direction of Luoyang and sighed in his heart.
Yuan Shu led a large army and pursued Gongsun Zhan fiercely, occupying almost the entire Yingchuan along the way.
Gongsun Chan retreated to Yangcheng, defeated with the remnants of the army, and could not hold out.
Yuan Shu left 5,000 people to Liyi, and sent Ji Ling and others to attack Peiguo, Liang Guo, etc., and in less than three days, Yuzhou almost fell into the hands of Yuan Shu except for Chen Guo.
When the news reached Luoyang, the entire Luoyang City was terrified.
Gyeongbokgun, study.
Wang Yun sat next to Yang Biao and said impatiently: "Your Majesty, please give an order quickly, and order Dong Zhuo to immediately send troops to resist Yuan Shu!" ”
Xun You, Zhong Xuan and others looked solemn and worried.
Who would have thought that Gongsun Chan would collapse at the touch of a button, and the army of 20,000 people, not to mention extermination, would not be able to resist the slightest, and it would be crushed for thousands of miles!
Yingchuan County and Luoyang are only separated by a water, once Yangcheng falls, the rebels can drive straight into Luoyang!
Yang Biao calmed his face, raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, please transfer the forbidden army camp into Beijing to defend the eastern capital, and the three auxiliary soldiers and horses gallop to help Gongsun Zhan, and Yuan Shu must be blocked in Yingchuan!" ”
Huangfu Song sat on the side, but he seemed to be far away from everyone, his face was expressionless, and his eyes were full of thought.
Liu Wei took a long time, drank tea slowly, and said with a smile: "I said before that whenever there is a major event, you should be calm, don't panic." ”
Wang Yun's intuition was frightened, where could he meditate, raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, it is already 100,000 urgent, and it cannot be delayed, please give an order immediately!" ”
Liu Wei put down the teacup, smiled lightly, and said, "Da Sima." ”
Huangfu Song bowed down and said to Wang Yun and others: "Prime Minister, Prince, five days ago, Xu Rong was ordered to lead 20,000 soldiers and horses to enter Yuyuan Pass. ”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and they all looked at Huangfu Song.
They didn't even know about such a big thing?
Yuyuan Pass, at the junction of Yingchuan and Luoyang, is the only way for Yingchuan to enter Luoyang.
This pass is one of the eight passes set up by Emperor Ling in order to prevent the Yellow Turban Army from attacking Luoyang.
Soon after Liu Wei ascended the throne, he ordered Huangfu Song to rectify the eight passes, which were the key points.
The people with gloomy faces were relieved. There are 20,000 soldiers and horses in Yuyuan Pass, and they can't hold out, which is enough to block Yuan Shu's way into Beijing!
Wang Yun immediately snorted coldly and said, "Your Majesty, then Dong Zhuo sat back and watched Gongsun Zhan lose and did not support the army, so he should be held accountable!" ”
The crowd glanced at him and shook their heads secretly.
Changing the battle on the spot will be a taboo, not to mention that the situation is very bad now, forcibly asking Dong Zhuo is not forcing him to rebel?
"Reasonable."
Before everyone could react, Liu argued: "Pass the decree and order Cao Shangshu and Li Ru to be the envoy, go to Chen State, and ask Dong Zhuo about the crime!" ”
Before the words fell, the whole room was shocked.
