Chapter 123, Great Repulsion

Su De took the initiative to send someone to ask Liu Yu for peace, saying that he was willing to surrender, but some people disagreed. He had to convince those generals before making a determination, hoping that Liu Yu's army would not be in a hurry to attack. That night, someone opened the gate and threw himself into Liu Yu's military camp. It turned out that the governor of Liaodong came to Liu Yu with 500 subordinates. Liu Yu was overjoyed and left the governor post for appointment. The governor told Liu Yu that Su De's army in Liaodong County is now less than 10,000. If he launches an attack, Su De will definitely not be able to resist it. He can't delay him and should launch an attack quickly.

Liu Yu listened to the governor's words and ordered the soldiers to have a good rest. He launched an attack in the morning of the next day. Who knew that when it was light, someone came to report that Su De took his army to Liaoxi. Now there are only the people in the city, and there is no army. Liu Yu was overjoyed and immediately took the army to Liaodong. At the same time, he collected heavy taxes from the people in the city to fill their armaments. The people had many escapees.

Since Liu Yu got Liaodong County, Wei You said, "Master, now we have two cities in a row, and there is no movement on Yuan Shao's side. It's better to stay still first and take other cities after confirming that they start the war, so that Zu Zhao will never have a chance to defend. And I heard that there are also a number of unnamed troops under the account of Chen Youzhi, the county guard in western Liaoning, so we can't attack rashly now.

Hearing Wei You's words, Liu Yu also remembered Tian Feng's previous suggestion and immediately summoned the general to discuss the march. Unexpectedly, except Wei You, all the counselors and generals thought that they should work hard and not give Zu Zhao's army a chance to breathe. If Zu Zhao knew that they attacked the rear, he might choose It's not good to choose to retreat.

Wei You objected fully and said that he could not move forward rashly now. Although Zu Zhao's army was fighting against Yuan Shao, there was still a large number of troops in Liaoxi County, and he must have smelled the crisis in the rear long ago. They could not defend themselves, and Su De was a Confucian general that Zu Zhao valued most. He is now straight It doesn't make sense to leave the city.

Some counselors objected: "I think you overestimate the enemy. Since Su De is so valued, he naturally has his own strategy. At this time, anyone will choose to leave. How can an army of less than 10,000 compete with our 50,000 troops? Since he fled to Liaoxi, then we should avoid its sharpness and not attack Liaoxi, but directly attack Zhuo County, a military important place. In this way, we will conquer Zhuo County. If they return to the army, we can also have the capital to resist. If they attack Liaodong County, we can send troops from Zhuo County to support them. If they attack Zhuo County, I can also support them from Liaodong County. In addition, if Yuan Shao's army pursues behind them, Zu Zhao's army will inevitably be trapped in Liaoxi County. At that time, Zu Zhao's army will be destroyed in one fell swoop.

Liu Yu also felt that this plan was feasible. If he did not adopt Wei You's suggestion, he immediately asked people to rectify the army and horses and send troops to Zhuo County. Wei You saw that Liu Yu did not listen to the advice, and he was very depressed. He drank drunk alone. Later, he cried bitterly after getting drunk, saying that Liu Yu must be defeated this time. Even if he barely captured Zhuo County, he was still seriously injured in strength.

Someone reported Wei You's words to Liu Yu. After learning the news, Liu Yu was furious and said that Wei You was disturbing the army and intended to curse him for failure, so he sent Wei You to prison and asked him to reflect on himself. Wei You was distressed and shouted that Liu Yu would definitely fail if he sent troops, but no one paid attention to him. When he was sad, Wei You chose to commit suicide in prison, leaving a thousand words of advice to let Liu Yu stick to it, win the trust of the people, consolidate his internal affairs, and stop attacking again.

Liu Yu was sad to hear the news of Wei You's suicide and ordered someone to bury him thickly. Liu Yu ignored his advice, saying that he would definitely prove to Wei You that the attack was right. After a few days off, Liu Yu took the army to attack Zhuo County.

After receiving the information from Zu Zhao, King Gongsun, the governor of Xuantong County, immediately dispatched 30,000 troops and horses to rescue Zhuo County. At this moment, Feng Luoxue and Cai Wenji were also in Xuantu County. Originally, Zu Zhao was going to marry Gongsun Xiaoban, but suddenly encountered Yuan Shao's attack, so the wedding was not held. However, Gongsun Xiaohan was sure that she was already Zu Zhao's wife, and Feng Luoxue and Cai Wenji, who had been following Zu Zhao for a long time, were also confirmed to be Zu Zhao's wife. . However, the three of them have a good relationship, regardless of size, and get along very well with each other.

King Gongsun was supposed to lead troops to attack in person, but his daughter Gongsun Xiaoban thought that he was old and could not bear to let him go to war, so he took the initiative to invite him to lead the army to Zhuo County as a general. King Gongsun may know that his daughter is good at it, but this battle with troops is not ordinary. He pays attention to military tactics and strategy.

At this moment, Cai Wenji laughed and said that she was willing to help the majority send troops together. As for the strategic matters, she also knew a little about it and might help. King Gongsun may have known that Cai Wenji is a rare female genius, and her intelligence is not inferior to other counselors. Now that she is willing to go on an expedition, King Gongsun may naturally agree, so he formed an army led by Gongsun Xiaoban as a general, Feng Luoxue as the deputy general and Cai Wenji as the military division to fight.

Originally, Gongsun Xiaoban was going to directly enter Zhuo County, but when Cai Wenji learned that Chen Youzhi of Liaoxi also led troops to help, he suggested that Gongsun Xiaohan camp secretly outside the city. When Liu Yu's army arrived in Zhuo County to attack the city, he would suddenly send troops. At that time, the city troops would come out, and Liu Yu's army would be defeated by the enemy. Since he will escape, for example, he will encounter Chen Youzhi's army. At that time, Liu Yu will have no way to escape.

Gongsun Xiaoban was overjoyed when he heard the words. He listened to Cai Wenji's advice and quietly sent a letter to the Zhuo County general, saying that their army was camped outside the city. When Liu Yu's army attacked, he would attack from behind. When the time, the army in the city would kill at the same time, Liu Yu's army would definitely be defeated. The general was very happy to know that there were reinforcements and immediately prepared the army to attack the enemy.

After marching for a few days, Liu Yu's army arrived in Zhuo County. They camped 15 miles away from Zhuo County. After sending soldiers everywhere to explore, no other troops were found. It turned out that Gongsun Xiaoban's army was stationed in the mountain, and all the horses were blindfolded and could not make a sound at all. The flags and flags were also hidden, and the tents were also covered with leaves. Naturally, Liu Yu's detectives could not find out any news.

After receiving the news, Liu Yu was overjoyed and immediately ordered the army to launch an attack the next day. The next day after breakfast, Liu Yu took the army to the city of Zhuo County and asked Xian Yuyin to take the army to the gate to fight.

When Li Xin, the guard general, learned that Liu Yu's army had arrived, he immediately rushed out with his army. Xian Yuyin saw the general in the city and shouted, "You can surrender quickly, so that you won't die under my long gun."

Li Xin asked, "Who are you, how dare you speak so wildly?"

Xian Yuyin smiled and said, "I am Xian Yuyin, a general under Liu Zhoumu. If you don't surrender quickly, you won't blame me for being ruthless."

Before he finished speaking, the general beside Li Xin had been killed with a long gun and roared loudly, "Let's see if your long gun is powerful or my long gun can kill people." Everyone saw that this person was Deng Ran, known as the first warrior in Zhuo County.

Xian Yuyin was furious and came to fight with a long gun. The two fought, and there was no winner or loser in 50 rounds of the war. Deng Ran is skillful in shooting and has a good way to advance and retreat. Xian Yuyin took another 20 rounds and was secretly surprised. This guy's shooting skills are above himself, and he has some courage. If he continues to fight, he must not get cheap, so he shakes a shot, turns his horse's head and walks away. How could Deng Ran let him go like this? Who dared to come? Seeing that he was about to catch up, he was not sure that Yin turned around and shot him with an arrow. Deng Ran hurriedly dodged, and suddenly saw Xian Yu Silver shooting three arrows in a row. Deng Ran dodged one arrow and blocked one arrow, but the other arrow could not dodge. He was in the middle of his right arm, and suddenly blood flowed.

He didn't dare to fight and pulled back. When Xian Yuyin saw it, he immediately turned the horse's head to chase him and took Deng Ran with a gun. After chasing down the city, Li Xin took the army out and rescued Deng Ran back to the city. At this moment, Liu Yu took advantage of the situation and ordered to attack the city. Li Xin took the army back to the city and couldn't hold on. Liu Yu's army set up ladders and attacked the city one after another. The arrows on the city were raining, and the rocks and logs rolled in. Liu Yu's army could not attack for half a day.

When I was about to order a retreat, I suddenly heard a shout of killing behind me, but I saw a petite general in white robe rushing with a large army, surrounded by one person, without armor and ribbon dancing, like a fairy.

Liu Yu knew that this woman was Feng Luoxue, a martial arts master under Zu Zhao's command. This person has great ability and the ability to kill a general easily. Liu Yu was shocked when he saw this and immediately let the generals protect themselves from escape. Seeing that the Lord would be the first to escape, the soldiers threw away their armor and fled. When Li Xin saw the reinforcements arrive, he had already opened the gate and rushed out with the army, and chased and killed with Gongsun Xiaoban's army.

It won't be long before Gongsun Xiaoban and Feng Luoxue are about to catch up. The two passed in the chaos, as if they had entered no man's land. Liu Yu was shocked and quickly sent someone back to stop him. General Xian Yufu rushed back with more than a hundred horses. Gongsun Xiaohan threw out a flying knife in his hand, killed more than a dozen cavalry in an instant, and then a meteor hammer hit out and overturned two people. Feng Luoxue took Xian Yufu directly, only two rounds, and a sword stabbed Xian Yufu under the horse.

Feng Luoxue and Gongsun Xiaoban chased and killed all the way. Liu Yu fled all the way under the protection of the soldiers around him. Less than 50 miles away, suddenly an army was killed in front of them, Zhao Ye on the left and Chen Youzhi on the right. The two immediately blocked the way.

Chen Youzhi said, "Bo'an, you are trying to attack the rear of our army. Now you have been plotted by our army and have no way to escape. If you don't get off your horse quickly, you can avoid death."

Seeing Chen Youzhi surrounded the army, Liu Yu was shocked and almost fell from the horse. Fortunately, he was supported by his son Liu He, so he was fine. Seeing that Feng Luoxue and Gongsun Xiaoban also caught up, Xian Yuyin shouted, "Lord, go first, wait for me to break", and took Chen Youzhi with a gun. At the same time, he ordered the general Wei Dun and others to stop Feng Luoxue and others to fight.

Xianyu fought against Chen Youzhi, and the deputy general Liao Bo stopped Zhao Ye. His son Liu He protected Liu Yu to kill a bloody road. The soldiers also protected each other to the death. Liu Yu escaped from the chaotic army and kept going west. It is said that Xian Yuyin and Chen Youzhi were defeated in less than 20 rounds. He occupied and retreated, and had been obstructing Chen Youzhi from chasing Liu Yu, and finally caught up by Chen Youzhi on a hillside.

wei dun alone fought against Feng Luoxue and Gongsun Xiaoban. In less than 20 rounds of the battle, he was also shot down. Two hundred of his subordinates fought desperately against each other and were finally captured. Liu Yu attacked Youzhou with 50,000 troops, and finally defeated, and only escaped with more than 500 remnants.

As soon as he came out of Youzhou, he met a wave of troops. It was Gongsun Zan who had hatred before. It turned out that Gongsun Zan heard that Zu Zhao and Yuan Shao were facing each other and also brought his army to intercept Youzhou. At this moment, he was defeated by Liu Yu. He knew that Zu Zhao was still on the defensive and did not dare to march. He captured Liu Yu and persuade Liu Yu to form a group. The weaving army attacked Zu Zhao.

Liu Yu just lost the battle and was not ashamed of Gongsun Zan's character. After being captured, he scolded Gongsun Zan. This angered Gongsun Zan and ordered him to be killed. His son Liu He tried his best to escape and went straight to Chen Youzhi's camp to talk about his father's murder. He burst into tears, which was so touching. After hearing the news, the generals Xian Yuyin, Wei Dun and others also cried bitterly. When they learned that Gongsun Zan actually fabricated the crime on Liu Yu, they were even more angry. They told Chen Youzhi and others that if they could let them lead troops to take back Liu Yu's body, they were willing to give up Xichuan and would rather let Zu Zhao get Xichuan. We must not let the violent man of Gongsun Zan get it.

Chen Youzhi thought about it over and over again, and felt his righteousness towards Liu Yu. He agreed to release Xian Yuyin and Wei Dun, and gave them 800 armored cavalry to rob Liu Yu's body. Liu He, Wei Dun, Xian Yuyin and others thanked them in pain and took the army to negotiate with Gongsun Zan.

Liu He and others took the army to Gongsun Zan's department and met an army on the road. It was Gongsun Ji, the son of Gongsun Zan. He was ordered to take Liu Yu's body to Kyoto for reward. Liu He was about to rush out when he saw the situation. Wei Dun said, "Gongsun Zan's subordinates have been fighting all the year round. Now all the sergeants are extremely brave. Now although we have Zu Zhao's armored cavalry, we only have more than 800 people, but there are more than 2,000 of them. If we charge head-on, we will definitely suffer losses. Why not do so." After saying that, he talked like this with Liu Heyu Xianyu's silver ear.

The two praised its feasibility, so Liu He rushed to Gongsun Ji's army with 200 soldiers, informing them of their identity and purpose, hoping that Gongsun Xu could return Liu Yu's body. Unexpectedly, Gongsun Xu was as arrogant and belligerent as his father Gongsun Zan. Now when he saw Liu He's son Liu He coming, he was very happy. If he could catch Liu He, he could be eradicated and let the Liu Yu family completely eradicated. There would be no worries about the future, and the court could also give more rewards, so he led the army straight Take Liu He.

The two armies intersect, and there is no samurai round, and Liu He is defeated. Gongsun continued to see Liu He's defeat, waved his army to kill him, and chased him all the way to a gourd valley. A counselor said, "The terrain ahead is dangerous, there may be an ambush, and there are many dead grass and trees on all sides. If the enemy attacks with fire, we will be in danger."

Gongsun continued to laugh and said, "Liu Hexiao, the defeated generals of the disabled army, how can there be any ambush? Just rush and catch it and catch it. Everyone will be rewarded."

The counselor said, "Young general, don't underestimate the enemy. Liu Yu has always advocated benevolence and harmony. His army is not good at fighting, but General Gongsun can win many times with fewer. However, the 200 cavalry brought by Liu He now are indeed moderate in attack and defense. In the siege of thousands of us, they are still not panicked. 200 people have escaped smoothly and have to be guarded.

Gongsun Xu smiled coldly and said, "If you are afraid, stay here to look at the body of old Liu Yu and take me to capture Liu Helai. At that time, there will be no credit for you." After saying that, when he divided 500 troops to the counselor and asked him to guard Liu Yu, he took 1,500 troops to hunt down Liu He.

Let's say that Gongsun Xu waved his army to kill him. Liu He only ran away in confusion and fled to a valley. The road was blocked by a messy stone in front of him. He took the army back and confronted Gongsun Xu. Gongsun continued to see this and smiled, "Liu Hexiao, you are destined to die today. Do you break it yourself or let me do it myself?"

Liu He sneered and said, "I don't know who will die. You are so arrogant that you deserve to die." Before he finished speaking, he heard a drum on both sides of the canyon, and the ambush came out on both sides, and then the vegetation covered it up. Gongsun continued to see it and was shocked. He knew that he was really ambushed and was about to go back with his army. Who knew that after a few steps, he saw a wave of troops in front of him, with Xian Yuyin on the right and Wei Dun on the left. The cavalry behind the two stood several flags and wrote "Youzhou Jingqi".

When Gongsun Xu saw this flag, he was even more shocked and asked, "Is it the armored cavalry under Zu Zhao's command behind you?"

Wei Dun said coldly, "You still have some insight. It's more than enough for Youzhou to fight against your Gongsun family's control soldiers. Today, you can die at the hands of this unit, which is also a kind of comfort to you."

Gongsun Xu shook his head and said, "You attacked Zu Zhao's rear and defeated him. How could they let you come out with their armored cavalry? Don't scare me. I'm afraid it's just a mystery for the defeat of your soldiers.

Wei Dun said, "If you think so, just try it." Speaking with a gun, Gongsun continued: "Next year's today is the anniversary of your death. Your father and son should be punished for killing Lord Liu Yu. After saying that, the long gun in his hand pointed, and the arrows on both sides fell like rain. Gongsun Xu's soldiers fell down one after another, and the canyon was suddenly piled up like a mountain.

Gongsun Xu rushed with his bodyguard several times, and were shot back by random arrows. Soon, all 1,500 soldiers around him were shot and killed. Gongsun Xu was also injured by arrows in many places and fell to the ground and was dying. Liu He rushed up, stabbed him to death with one shot, cut off his head and hung it in front of the horse.

Out of the valley, Vice General Xian Yutong had already snatched Liu Yu's body back, and the left-behind counselor was also captured alive. Liu He threw Gongsun Xu's head to the counselor and said, "Take it back to see your lord and tell him that Xichuan already belongs to the land of Zuzhao. If he dares to try to enter Xichuan, there is only one way to die."

The counselor picked up his life and staggered away. After Liu He recaptured his father's body, he met Chen Youzhi and others and said that they were willing to sacrifice Xichuan and would no longer be against Zu Zhao. Chen Youzhi sent grain and food to him, and sent an army to escort Liu He and others back to Xichuan, let him bury Liu Yu heavily, and at the same time sent an envoy to take over Xichuan.

In this regard, Xichuan successfully belonged to Zu Zhao.
