Chapter 121, fight again
In front of the court under the drizzle, Zu Zhao in the courtyard was dressed in a velvet mink cloak, dressed in Rongzi lock armor, and stood in front of the court with a sword. "Is it raining?" He looked at the gray sky and said to himself.
"Yes, Lord. Let's go back to the house," Chen Gong replied.
"It seems that this day is going to change." Zu Zhao's eyes were full of light, as if he saw the fate of the world for a long time through the dense clouds, and also saw the momentum of falling the city predicted by the wind and rain.
"Let's go back to the house. You go and call the generals to the state capital." Zu Zhao turned around and returned to the room thinking.
On the other side, an old man stood in the military tent, with an open military map in front of him. "Every episode, the two generals of Yan Liangwenchou will fight. Now I can only trust you. You can help me analyze the current situation." This person is not someone else but the hegemon of Hebei, Yuan Shao and Yuan Benchu.
"General, I have made a fallacy," Fengji kowtowed his hand and continued to say, "Master, please see, nowadays, there are several powerful people in the world. The lord has been in Hebei. It's better to jump forward and flatten Youzhou. Isn't it unpleasant? I have heard that the people of Youzhou are rich and take care of the city. It is a good place, and they are stationed in Youzhou. Zu Zhao's strong ministers are a generation of heroes. Seeing that they are becoming more and more powerful now, the future may not be good for us. Lord and ministers suggest that although our army has just been seriously injured by Gongsun Zan's vitality, our military morale is still there. If we don't show up, it will be difficult to deal with Zu Zhao's wings. The collection analysis is reasonable.
"Guo Tu, what do you think?" Yuan Shao has obviously been moved, just symbolically asked his first military division, Guo Tu.
"I think that it is impossible. Youzhou is not good, which is not what Fengji said. In addition, Qinchuan and Zhongshan, where Youzhou and I are both, are all cities of our army, so I think it is enough to send troops to defend the city." Guo Tu kowtowed and took a fierce look at Fengji, which was jealous and cruel.
"Chen Lin, what do you think?" Chen Lin is a student of Guo Tudi. Because she showed a gathering of great talents when she was young, she was recruited by Yuan Shao to be a staff member.
Chen Lin was frightened and quickly kowtowed, because as a staff member, she was standing by the door. On such an occasion, it was not his turn to speak. "Yes, Lord, I think what Mr. Guo said is reasonable. For Li, defending the city is the best choice of our army. With our current power, the winning rate is not high." Guo Tu couldn't close his mouth with a smile after listening to Chen Lin's words, and Fengji was still calm and natural as if he didn't hear it. Guo Tu couldn't figure out what medicine he bought in the gourd.
"Haha," Fengji suddenly laughed, "You two masters and apprentices are together. The spies I've been looking for for a few days turned out to be you two. You two are not allowed to attack Youzhou. You must be a spy sent by Zu Zhao." Fengji pointed to Guo Tu and scolded angrily.
"Every episode, don't spit people's blood." Guo Tu looked at Yuan Shao in panic.
"I'm bloody. Can I fake this letter, Chen Lin, do you think you are a spy?" Fengji pulled out a letter from his sleeve and the official seal of Youzhou City. He fell in front of Chen Lin, who had already fallen to the ground in fear.
"Chen Lin, what's going on, you say," Yuan Shao looked at Chen Lin and looked at the young man he had trusted very much.
"Lord, I'm wrong. I'm willing to make up for all this. The teacher forced me to do all this, not on my own will." Chen Lin looked aggrieved.
"Humph, Guo Tu is so bold that you dare to betray the country." Yuan Shao angrily patted the table, "Someone dragged Guo Tu down and killed them."
"The lord is wronged, Fengji, you trapped me in injustice," Guo Tu shouted. Yuan Benchu, you will be defeated when you send troops to Youzhou,
A scream outside the noon gate ended Guo Tu's sound.
"Report, Yuan Shao's department gathered to see the general!" The messenger reported on the way.
Cao Cao raised his eyes and saw that this person was not the first counselor under Yuan Shao's account who designed Guo Tu to death yesterday.
"General Cao is Yuan Shao. Yuan Benchu's soldiers gathered together and met the general." The etiquette of the gathering is not inconsiderate. The reason why he did not call Prime Minister Cao is that the general situation is still determined today, and the Prime Minister may have broken his survival weight in other camps.
"I don't know why Mr. came to my Cao's camp." Why didn't Cao Cao know the purpose of his coming? There is no doubt that Yuan Ben and Gongsun Zan were both defeated in the battle. Now there are Zu Liechen next to Yuan Shao. Cao Yuan's alliance is undoubtedly a good plan, but Cao Cao has already known how far the union is. How can Yuan Shao's generation of heroes be? To rule troubled times, this person is incompetent, let alone the Lord. He can only talk to him briefly and not make friends deeply.
"General, I am ordered by my lord to discuss the way of union with the general." The answer is clean and neat.
"Oh, that's right, but now in troubled times, you and I are our respective lords. What's the purpose of our alliance?" Cao Cao asked knowingly.
"General, you should know that Zu Zhao of Youzhou has become a certain climate. If you let it develop, I'm afraid even you and me can't contain it. So I came in to unite with General Cao to fight against Zu Zhao.
"Hahaha," Cao Cao looked up to the sky and smiled. "At the beginning, you will never be a hero, you will always be a bear." Cao Cao turned around and told Fengji, "You go back to tell Benchu, I know about the alliance, but now I am restrained by the war in the Central Plains and can't be pulled out. Let's find him for tea after a while.
After saying that, Cao Cao turned around and left. Only the meandering episode left, and said to himself, "Cao Mengde is really a treacherous hero"
In 195 AD, 200,000 advance troops from Yuan Shao's headquarters arrived in Zhongshan and 100,000 arrived in Qinchuan. It is a matter of confrontation with Youzhou City. But no one on both sides dares to lead the first attack, because people who know the military know that when the military strength of the two sides is equal, the other side will take the lead in the loss of military strength, and these losses will be irreversible until the end of the war.
It must be said that Yuan Shao really made great efforts. Originally, Zhongshan was just a level 2 defensive city, but now the city wall has been raised as high as 5 feet, and the moat has also put down countless wooden fences, hoarding enough for the whole army to hold for a year. It can be said that today's Zhongshan City is a huge fortress. It is impossible to take it down without dozens of times the army, and Qinchuan, which is the closest to Youzhou, is even more exaggerated. Originally, it was just a small town built between the two states to promote the circulation of goods. Now it has been transformed into a huge military camp, and the original residents are all After being relocated and building huge siege equipment, defensive catapults, crossbows, etc., 400,000 people turned the town into a steel city composed of soldiers in the original town. And it is Yuan Shao's beloved general Zhang Kui who sits in this steel city. This man is the most brave and martial arts, and it is also for this purpose that he is here. This place must be the first stop, so victory is crucial. Only victory can't be worshipped. The battle of cold weapons and morale are the foundation of everything.
"Chen Gong, how do you think Yuan Shao is such a heavy soldier here?" Zu Zhao looked at Chen Gong, who was following him.
"Lord, worry too much. This jaw warrior has heard of this bravery, but his wisdom is not enough. Yesterday, I and several generals, Liaodongcheng, found that this man built the city at will without following the military book, and the narrow road was inconvenient for cavalry and heavy armored soldiers. According to hearing, it was mainly Yuan Shao's elite soldiers stationed in Qinchuan this time. , it's the heavy cavalry and heavy armored soldiers.
"So that's it. We are determined to win this city," Zu Zhao said with a smile.
The next day, the Chinese army battalion said, "The generals and soldiers listened to the order. Zhang Yuan heard the order that the heavy armored infantry could only face the enemy head-on and could not attack. Zhao Meng obeyed the order and ordered you to lead the armored cavalry on the way to Zhongshan in Qinchuan. Be sure to face the enemy and not pursue Lien. Yu Ban, Zhao Qi, you two take a fine horse from the side, and you can't fall in love with each other. Finally, Zhang Ying, Zu Ping, and all the staff, please go up to the wall to see how the mattress Zhang jaw was defeated.
"Lord, you sit in the middle army, and the handsome horse only catches Zhang jaws, and everyone calls the drums on the city. Let's get ready." Chen Gong commanded, and everything was under control.
At noon, a team of heavy infantrymen in Liaodong came out with a neat step, and the silver armor shone with the most dazzling glory in the sun. A man stood on the horse, walking in front of the silver helmet and silver armor, holding a 5-foot-long sword, and then followed by Zhang Yuanzu Ping Zhang Yu. His unparalleled belief and the belief of victory condensed on everyone's face. A team of the most elite riders followed.
The Qinchuan camp opposite also reacted immediately. As soon as the gate opened, a man stood on the horse with a long gun, a black horse with golden armor, and then the same heavy cavalry and infantry.
"Does anyone on the opposite dare to fight against me?" The black-faced man shouted rudely.
Zhang Yuan was about to lift the knife when he saw a long sword in front of the horse's head. Yes, Zu Zhao had already galloped his horse forward. It was late. At that time, in the blink of an eye, the horses on both sides ran desperately. In a few seconds, they collided, and there was no victory or defeat between lightning. Then he returned to the horse. In this collision, the long sword rubbed the edge of the long grab, drawing a fierce white mark and a row of scattered sparks, and indistinguishable The two fight against each other. This is a burst of drums coming from the back wall. Looking back, a huge catapult has been launched in the city. There are as many as ten, and there is a thunder drum. The soldiers shouted to the sky, "God power, God power..."
Yes, Zu Zhao is not free these days. He did not take care of the tactics of the battle, but gathered all the craftsmen to jointly develop these Shenwei stone carts.
The two generals were also exhausted for dozens of rounds, so they returned to the front of their own troops. Of course, Zhang jaws could not show weakness. They immediately sent people to invite their siege vehicles, and huge catapults were pushed out one by one, and the swords on both sides were drawn for a while.
Another beating drums. Zhang Ju was shocked. He didn't know what the opposite was doing, but how he couldn't imagine Zu Zhao's IQ. This was the stone throwing cars on both sides began to accumulate strength. Zhang Ju just didn't know anything about the military affairs, but he was not stupid, so he ordered all the stone throwing cars to aim at the wall of Liaodong City and break the city directly, but he couldn't Not to mention that Zhang is still guilty, because he can't understand the opposite side at all. Because the catapter has always been a sharp weapon for attacking the city, why did the defenders take out the catapul vehicle now? Zhang jaws thought that the ground was too big, but he didn't know why.
But immediately, Zu Zhao gave the answer, "Give me to throw in their barracks." The wooden barrels as big as stones were pushed on the stone car and slowly lit, and then the huge wine barrels flew into the enemy's barracks one by one. For a moment, Yuan Shao's army was dumbfounded. What a year of burden? Is it really going to be burned?
Yuan Jun immediately ran back to the camp to put out the fire, but the problem had come out. It was still possible to come out of the street with a regular lineup, but at this moment, it was already in a mess. People were crowded, and the long guns were in front of the horse's feet. After the flying wine barrel, there were pieces of arrows and a huge stones breaking from the air. Just when everyone fell into chaos, a thunder and drum sounded. At this time, the sound of the drums was not pleasant to the ear at all, and it seemed to be a life-threatening charm in every Yuan Shaojun's ears.
Each side was surrounded by a team of elite horses. Yuan Shaojun, who was originally anxious, was even more at a loss. He rushed to Yuan Jun with his head in his arms. A roaring heavy infantryman rushed to Yuan Jun. In a few hours, a suppressed war was over. At this time, the generals of the Yuan army were tied and knelt on the ground, led by Zhang Kui. While cleaning the battlefield, the soldiers talked and laughed about the tragic situation of Yuan Jun's escape.
"The next step is to enter Zhongshan. Zhongshan City is very strong and difficult to fight." Chen Gong was not happy about the victory in front of him, but worried about the subsequent battle, which was exactly the courage that a great military division should have.
"Haha, I have already arranged this." Zu Zhao looked relieved. Those who know him must know that when Zu Zhao is full of confidence, then he must have made full preparations.
"Okay, I'll wait for the good news from the lord."
"Tomorrow, the whole army will go straight to Zhongshan City and surround Zhongshan City. Within a month, Zhongshan City will be broken." Zu Zhao said confidently.
A month later, in Zhongshan City, "I still don't know why the lord Weichen has a year's heavy and dangerous city as a guard. Why did Han Fu's old department open the gate?" Chen Gong really can't see through the young lord in front of him. He is so young, but he has won a hundred battles and is known as the general of the world.
"In fact, there are many things you don't know about, but now is the time to tell you. You know who Mrs. Yuan Shao in Yuan Shao's camp is now," Zu Zhao said without mentioning it.
"According to my investigation, it's Queen Wu." It can be said that Chen Gong has checked the bits and pieces of Yuan Shao's camp, but he still doesn't know what medicine he bought in Zu Zhao's gourd.
"Yes, do you know who is the lover of Queen Wu? That's the greatest contributor to our battle, that is, the person who provoked this battle.
"Is it... Yes... "Every episode" Chen Gong can't keep calm.
"Yes, it's him. Four months ago, I went to Zhongshan to visit the gathering that was about to rush to the battlefield between Gongsun Zhan and Yuan Shao. At that time, I made a plan and secretly kept in touch."
"What's his purpose?" Chen Gong looked at Zu Zhao with a puzzled face, as if he were listening to the story.
The purpose? Chongguan became a beauty. The ancient plot was also useful to the current people, so he secretly contacted me and framed Guo Tu, who was also a staff but obstructed his plan in every way.
"But no one will believe it if it is framed," Chen Gong raised his own doubts.
"Yes, although it is a false accusation, it is not a complete false accusation, because I wrote a letter to Guo Tu's apprentice and an official seal of Youzhou before, so it is a general false accusation." After saying that, Zu Zhao took a sip of tea to clear his mouth.
"What happened to the surrender of this city?" Chen Gong listened to one like a story like a child and listened to the other.
"This is very simple. As the only few remaining military divisions in Yuan Shao's army, it's too simple not to transport grain to Zhongshan City. Think about how can the weight of 300,000 people in a year be transported in a month, and there are large machinery, so the transportation in Zhongshan City is under the supervision of this one. Yue only transported a small amount of grain and all the machinery, so when we besieged the city, the food could not get in, so under pressure, Han Fu's old department in the city turned to open the gate and surrender. The war, as if it were my own work of art, ended like this. Chen Gong foolishly looked at the person in front of him not only with respect, but also more fear. Step by step, a battle involving millions of people was completely under his control. In terms of this courage, he was even more ashamed of this operation.
"What, Zhongshan was besieged and surrendered. Why?" Yuan Shao slapped the table like crazy, and his eyes were congested.
"I told the lord that it was because of the lack of food and grass," Ju Shu, who escaped from Zhongshan, reported.
"What? Who is responsible for transporting grain and fodder?
"It's Fengji..." Ju Shu replied in a low voice.
"What...catch him..." Yuan Shao has reached the peak of his anger.
"Report... Someone saw that Fengji escaped from the south gate with Empress Wu this morning in the direction of Youzhou City." The messenger sent a flying horse to report.
"What?! Every episode will mislead me." A mouthful of blood gushed out and sprayed on the map. Guo Tu's words seemed to come to my ear. Yuan Benchu, you will be defeated if you send troops to Youzhou.
"Guo Tu, I recognize people from time to time... Guo Tu!" Yuan Shao fell on the table.
After the battle, Zu Zhao once again organized Renmatun stationed in Zhongshan to continue the confrontation with Yuan Shao's army, after breaking through Yuan Shao's first line of defense. It has become an encirclement situation facing Yuan Shao's base camp. Cao Cao, who had reached a joint agreement with Yuan Shao, turned a deaf ear to Yuan Shao's defeat.
" Prime Minister, I heard that Yuan Benchu's attack on Youzhou was defeated!" The soldiers told Cao Cao.
"Haha!" Cao Cao laughed: "The idiot also dares to play with the sky, and Yuan Benchu is also mediocre"
