Chapter 507 Outside Fan Yangcheng

Outside Fanyang City, Yuan Shao's army formed a phalanx, a catapult, and was pushed to the front by the soldiers, and the ground trembled.

"Spear, attack, we must take Fan Yang today." Yan Liang sat on the high-headed horse, with a long knife in his hand across the air and ordered the soldiers behind him.

With Yan Liang's order, the stone truck began to fill the stones, and Yuan Shao's army outside the city also cheered. Yan Liang and Wen Chou were defeated by Lv Bu and fled back to Jizhou and were severely reprimanded by Yuan Shao. However, Nian was exempted from the crime by following Yuan Shao for many years. This time, it was precisely for them to make contributions and attack Gongsun Zan. Since Yan Liang and Wen Chou came to Fan Yang, they have not disappointed Yuan Shao. After several fierce battles, they almost wiped out all the new forces of Gongsun Zan, so that Gongsun Zan had to shrink in Fanyang City. Even Le Jin and Guan Hai were beaten powerlessly and could only temporarily avoid its edge.

"General Gongsun, Yan Liang has arranged a lot of catapults outside the city. Please allow me to lead my troops to rush out and destroy their catapults. If these catapults are activated, I'm afraid Fan Yang will be spared." Seeing that Yan Liang had prepared a large number of catapults and prepared to attack Fan Yang, Zhao Yun couldn't help finding Gongsun Zan and asked Gongsun Zan for a battle.

"Ha ha." Gongsun Zan smiled bleakly at Zhao Yun's invitation, and then stretched out his finger to the soldiers in the city who were exhausted because of the long battle, "General Zhao Yun really thinks that we can defeat Yuan Shao's army outside the city? Yuan Shao and I have been fighting for many years, and my troops are getting less and less, but Yuan Shao is getting stronger and stronger. The final outcome of this war is doomed. I have nothing to say about such an ending all my life. At this time, Gongsun Zant no longer had the spirit of fighting in the battlefield in his early years, and completely became a late old man with no hope for his future.

"Why does the general have to be like this? The reinforcements sent by General Gao Shun are not far from the city. Even if Yuan Shao is powerful and Fan Yangcheng can't defend it, we can still seek the protection of General Gao Shun. It is not difficult to kill him again in the future. Why should the general be so frustrated?" Seeing that Gongsun Zan was like this, Zhao Yun opened his mouth to comfort him.

"Well, I, Gongsun Zan, can't rely on others for the shelter of my life. When my Gongsun Zan dominated the world, Lv Bu was just a hairy boy. How could it be possible for me to rely on him?" Hearing Zhao Yun's words, Gongsun Zan snorted coldly. Obviously, he was not interested in defecting to Lv Bu, but in a blink of an eye, Gongsun Zan's expression was relaxed again. Then he said, "My son Gongsun Xu is still young. I can't bear him being injured by the chaotic army, so I asked the general to escort my son to rush out of the enemy and go to Bingzhou. I don't know if the general can Do you agree?" Although Gongsun Zan could put his life and death aside, he still couldn't give up his son Gongsun Xu. In the end, he still hoped that Zhao Yun could escort Gongsun Xu to Bingzhou and save Gongsun Xu's life.

"This? The general can rest assured that as long as Zhao Yun is alive, he will definitely protect the prince. Hearing Gongsun Zan's words, Zhao Yun was a little hesitant, but immediately arched his hand to Gongsun Zan and said firmly. Gongsun Zan wanted to coexist and die with Fan Yangcheng, but Zhao Yun hoped to create a career and did not want to be buried here. Instead, it was better to accept the entrustment of Gongsun Zan to protect Gongsun to go to Bingzhou and keep this bloodline for Gongsun Zan.

In a short time, Gongsun Xu has been sent by Gongsun Zan. Gongsun Zan slowly came forward, straightened Gongsun Xu's clothes and said, "Now that Yuan Shao's army is strong, we can't stop it, so my father decided to let General Zhao Yun take you to Bingzhou to ask General Gaoshun for help. Pack it up and go right away." Gongsun Zan was afraid that Gongsun would not leave easily, so he found a reason.

"Father, don't worry, the child will live up to his trust and will definitely come to the rescue for his father." Gongsun Xu also knew about Fan Yang's crisis at this time. Unless there are a large number of reinforcements to rescue, it will be difficult for Fan Yang to change the fate of defeat. Last time Gao Shun sent Guan Hai and Le Jin, but there was no fate of Fan Yang's defeat. After several battles, Le Jin and Guan Hai also had to withdraw to the distance.

"General Zhao Yun, I'm counting on you." Gongsun Zan turned his head again and nodded to Zhao Yun.

"Boom, boom, boom." At this time, three stones were thrown by a stone car outside the city. One fell into the city and hit a house. One fell outside the city and a big hole on the ground. The last one fell on a section of the wall and smashed a gap in the city wall. The whole tower trembled. It was a throw outside the city. The stone car is test-fired.

Knowing that there was not much time, Gongsun Zun quickly waved to Gongsun Xu, who looked back at him, and urged Gongsun Xu to leave quickly.

"Yan Liang is going to attack the city. Are we really not going to help?" Outside Fanyang City, on a hill, Guan Hai saw that Yuan Shaojun was about to start attacking the city and asked Le Jin next to him.

"How can I help? Is there little help we have given to Gongsun Zun during this period? If Gongsun Zan can't even survive this battle, what's the use of us saving him? What's more, the reason why we help Gongsun Zan is to delay Yuan Shao's footsteps. At this time, the Prime Minister has taken Yuan Shu, and Gongsun Zan has no meaning to us. What's more, a few days ago, good news came from Yu Jin. He has subdued all the yellow scarves near Taihang Mountain. Now our soldiers and horses can directly cross Taihang Mountain to attack Jizhou, where we still need to waste our strength in Youzhou. Seeing that Guan Hai was not very clear, Le Jin opened his mouth and explained to Guan Hai. In troubled times, Lv Bu helped Gongsun Zan because it was good for Lv Bu. When Lv Bu didn't need Gongsun Zan, of course, he would not contribute to Gongsun Zan anymore.

"That's right." Guan Hai nodded and obviously understood what Le Jin meant, but he asked puzzledly, "In this case, why do we still stay here?"

"Hey hey, although Gongsun Zan can't do it, the defeat of a prince will leave a lot of things, and we stay for these things." Speaking of this, Le Jin smiled and said with a deep meaning.

"Leave something? Isn't it all robbed by Yan Liang?" Obviously, Guan Hai still doesn't understand what Le Jin said.

At this time, Yuan Shaojun's catapult finally completed the calibration. He only heard the creaking sound of the siege vehicles, and then boulders flew out of the catapult, and then hit the opposite Fanyang wall. No boulder hit the wall, and the wall would make a loud noise. Then countless rubble splashed out, and with the continuous bombardment of boulders, even the city wall slowly lowered.

"Go on the order and let them concentrate their firepower and smash them on a section of the wall." Looking at the catapult constantly throwing the boulder, the opposite Fanyang city wall trembled under the bombardment of the boulder. Although it gave people a sense of accomplishment, Yan Liang also understood that if the bombardment continued like this, it was estimated that while capturing Fanyang City, the city would be destroyed at the same time, which was not the purpose of Yan Liang's trip. After destroying Gongsun Zan, Fan Yangcheng still needs to be used. So Yan Liang's order was to concentrate firepower and bombard only one section. Bomb down a section of the city wall, so that the army outside the city can rush in and take Fan Yang.

Soon the catapult outside the city adjusted its target and smashed countless boulders on a section of the wall. There was a loud bang. The wall finally couldn't stand it and fell down. It opened a gap for the soldiers outside the city.

"Run in and catch Gongsun Zan alive." At this time, Yan Liang's horse came out and looked up to the sky. The soldiers behind him rolled forward like waves and quickly ran away in the direction of the gap.

At the same time, at the gate on the other side of Fanyang City, a group of cavalry was neatly arranged, and two people sat on the first horse, who were Zhao Yun and Gongsun Xu.

"General Zhao Yun, Yuan Shao's military stone catapling car attacked the city. I'm afraid that Fanyang City will not last long. Why don't we go back and call our father to go to Bingzhou together." Hearing the sound of the boulder constantly bombarding the city wall, Gongsun Xu was a little creepy, but he still said to Zhao Yun beside him. Gongsun Xu did not doubt Gongsun Zun's words. He just thought that Gongsun Zand let him leave this time to ask for help from Bingzhou.

"Don't worry, General Gongsun is lucky. Naturally, everything will be fine. What's more, General Gongsun is the main general here. What if he leaves the people here?" Zhao Yun did not expose Gongsun Zan's lies, but explained it to Gongsun Xu.

At this moment, I only heard a bang. It was the sound of the collapse of the city wall, and then the sound of killing outside the city sounded. It was like a rolling wave that made the eardrums tremble, and Gongsun Xu's whole face turned green: "General Zhao Yun, when will we leave?"

"It's now." Zhao Yun smiled at Gongsun Xu, and then waved his hand to let the soldiers open the gate and rushed out of the city with Gongsun Xu and his party. Outside the city of Fanyang was originally surrounded by Yuan Shao's army. If Zhao Yun rushed out of the city with Gongsun Xu, he would definitely be besieged and killed by a brigade of enemy troops. Naturally, Zhao Yun was not afraid of his strong force, but he could not guarantee that he could take Gongsun Xu away safely. At this time, Fanyang's wall was broken by a stone car, and Yuan Shao's army outside the city turned towards the city. The gap in the wall surged over, which gave Zhao Yun and Gongsun the opportunity to leave.

"Those who block me will die." As soon as Zhao Yun left the city, he stood in front of Gongsun Xu and opened the way for Gongsun Xu.

"Ha ha ha, it seems that the people we are waiting for have left the city. Let's get ready to fight." Seeing Zhao Yun coming out of the city with Gongsun Xu, Le Jin on the hill outside the city smiled and said to Guan Hai behind him. After all, Gongsun Zong couldn't bear to give up his son to death.
