Han Dao world

Chapter 72

Guo Bang squinted at Xie Guang, took a big gulp of wine, his eyes were red and his face was ferocious.

Xie Guang couldn't laugh or cry.

After all, he was a step too late, and banned the words of his subordinates, but he didn't have time to inform the scouts and rangers to control their mouths.

The ballads sung by Dong Chengying had already reached Guo Bang's ears. Guo Bang was furious and summoned him to question him.

"General, Dong Chengying's generals and soldiers are not comparable to what they used to be, whether in terms of their individual combat strength or their cooperation with each other. Our army attacked three times, killing more than a hundred people and wounding more than three times. It is definitely not a wise move to continue the strong attack. .”

Although Guo Si was angry, he was not stupid.

His trust in Xie Guang was also beyond doubt, seeing that Xie Guang spoke so cautiously, he didn't dare to be careless for a while.

"How about it? Withdraw?"

Xie Guang shook his head helplessly.Li Shi and Hu Feng were beside him, and Li Jue led the army behind him, so they couldn't retreat.

"I was thinking that Dong Chengben was the weakest of the court generals. Now that he has such strength, Yang Ding should not be weak. Hu Feng only has two or three thousand people to attack, and the possibility of success is not great. General Don’t worry too much, you can wait and see the situation.”

Guo Bang rolled his eyes for a long time, thinking it made sense, he took a wine glass, raised the jug, and poured most of Xie Guang's glass of wine.

"That can't let Dong Cheng go. How dare he humiliate me like this, I can't bear it!"

Xie Guang's head hurts a little.

He knew that Guo Si had lost face and would not give up.It's just that he can't solve it now. It's only natural for him to lose the battle and be humiliated.If you want to take revenge on Dong Cheng, you must defeat him first.

In terms of scolding, the Liangzhou people are really no match for the Kanto people.

"General, send someone to Li Shi and Hu Feng's camp tomorrow to inquire. I always feel that their attacks are unreasonable, and there may be other reasons."

Guo Si glared at Xie Guang angrily, and waved his hand impatiently.

"You arrange it yourself, I'm sleepy, go away."

Xie Guang had known Guo Si for many years, and he knew his temper, so he didn't think he was disobedient, so he got up and left.

-

Li Shi and Hu Feng's headaches hurt even more.

Hu Feng was not as cautious as Xie Guang, and went all out from the beginning, hoping to break Yang Ding's confidence with a fierce attack and force him to surrender.

But he failed to do so and kicked on the iron plate.

Encouraged by Guo Wu's capture of the flag, the soldiers in Yang Ding's battalion guarded extremely tenaciously and did not let Hu Feng take advantage of it.

Not only that, Yang Ding also accepted Yang Xiu's suggestion, opened the camp gate, lured Hu Feng into the camp, and then blocked the camp gate with strong bows and crossbows on both sides, and then attacked with iron cavalry. Wu Weifeng easily swept Hu Feng's position after being severely injured by the bow and crossbow.

Hu Feng was careless for a while, and lost more than [-] people, and even himself was almost folded in the camp, which can be described as a disastrous defeat.

After this battle, Hu Feng had lost the ability to fight again, so he had to ask Li Shi for a truce to avoid greater losses.

Li Shi was furious, but there was nothing he could do.

No matter how powerful the Feixiong army was, it would definitely not work to storm Yang Ding's camp. He couldn't bear the loss.

Later that night, Li Shi received news that Guo Si's attack had been thwarted, and he also inquired about the ballads sung by Lieutenant General Dong Chengying.

They have mixed feelings.

They should have gloated at Guo Bang's setback, but they suffered even more losses and played even worse, so they didn't have the face to laugh at anyone.

The two sat opposite each other, the table was messed up, just like their mood at the moment.

"Or, let's join hands with Guo Bang." Hu Feng suggested.

Li Shi's eyelids trembled, he hesitated for a moment, and then shook his head.

Teaming up with Guo Bang, Guo Bang is still in charge of the main attack, and he is in charge of the peripheral security, which is indeed a good plan.But once the news that the flying bear army's battle flag was taken by Yang Yizi reached Guo Bang's ears, troubles would be serious.

Guo Si has always been dissatisfied with Li Jue's exclusive use of the Feixiong Army. He felt that the Feixiong Army was originally Dong Zhuo's personal guard cavalry, not Li Jue's private trilogy. Xiong Jun is not owned by Li Jue alone.

Zhang Ji also had a similar idea, so they got closer recently, and they meant to join forces to fight against Li Jue.

Li Shi will not give them such a chance.

"We still have a chance." Li Shi refilled a glass of wine and held it in his hand. "If we don't attack Yang Ding, we will trap him until he runs out of food." He glared at Hu Feng again. "Without my order, you are not allowed to ask Da Sima for help, otherwise don't blame me for losing your face."

Hu Feng nodded helplessly in agreement.

He had already sent someone to report Li Jue's matter and he couldn't tell Li Shi. He only hoped that when they couldn't hide it in the future, they had already won the battle. Li Shi was in a good mood and didn't care about him.

-

Guo Si and Li Shi stopped attacking at the same time, and Liu Xie's head hurt.

He originally planned to show weakness, lure Guo Bang to attack, and cause a lot of damage, but the cover-up method was not in place, and the rhythm was not controlled well, which scared Guo Bang away, and it became a confrontation again.

He wasn't afraid to confront Guo Si, but Yang Ding couldn't wait long.

If the food cannot be delivered in time, they can only watch Yang Ding surrender.

Liu Xieku sat on the plateau, helpless.

Duan Yan sent the news that Zhang Ji led his troops westward, and there was still a day's journey at most, and the forward cavalry might appear at any time.

Duan Yan specially reminded Liu Xie that Zhang Ji's son, Zhang Xiu, had outstanding martial arts skills. Even among Xiliang people who are like a cloud of warriors, Zhang Xiu is a rare master.If he led hundreds of elite cavalry to rush in, it would be a great deterrent to scouts and rangers, and even the camp would be in danger.

In front of real cavalry masters, the infantry-based battalion is a target that can be attacked at any time.

Duan Yan didn't say it clearly, but what he meant was very clear.Compared with Yang Feng on the left, the imperial camp is more dangerous.

The northern and southern armies of the imperial court were too weak. Most of the soldiers felt weak when they heard the hooves of the Xiliang people, and they didn't have the courage to fight.

Liu Xie felt a little overwhelmed.

It's like drawing a bad hand, but there is no way out, and you have to make a last-ditch effort.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it can be saved.

But he didn't dare to show any wavering, he was obviously panicked, but he still wanted to put on a calm and composed appearance.

I don't know if Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu did the same when facing Wang Mang's [-] army in Kunyang.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Ding Chong rushed over panting, the loess on his face was washed out with sweat.

"Have you finished writing your speech?" Liu Xie coughed and asked in a calm tone.

"No, no." Ding Chong shook his head repeatedly, with an uncontrollable smile on his face. "Just received the news sent by Yang Shilang, Guo Shilang went out alone, killed three flying bear army rangers, and also captured the Feixiong army's battle flag, Li Shi was enraged, and then stormed the rear general's camp. "

Liu Xie was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.

It turned out to be like this, what a surprise.

It's a pity that this victory is the same as repelling Guo Bang's attack yesterday, and its symbolic significance is greater than its practical significance.

Ding Chong suggested: "Your Majesty, why don't you inform the whole army, especially General Xingyi, of this news immediately."

"is it necessary?"

"Yes." Ding Chong said: "The Flying Bear Army is the leader of Xiliang's elite, and now Guo Shilang is single-handedly fighting against five to capture his battle flag, which shows that the Flying Bear Army's reputation is hard to beat. General Xingyi is brave. , has always been conceited with this, if he knows that Guo Shilang has become famous, he will definitely not be left behind, and maybe he will have the courage to take the initiative to break the deadlock."

Liu Xie woke up like a dream.
