Reborn in the Three Kingdoms

The guard hurriedly sent someone to report to Gongsun Zan, and at the same time ordered someone to put down the hanging basket. The city gate had been blocked, and this was the only way to enter and exit the city gate.

the other side.Gongsun Xu took his father's order to prepare. Gongsun Zan looked at the sunset sky with a sad and naive expression on his face.It wasn't that Gongsun Zan didn't want to wait for reinforcements from the Zhengbei Army to arrive. He really didn't believe that anyone would give up the good situation in the Central Plains just to save him. Besides, even if the Zhengbei Army sent troops, the forces they could muster in a hurry were limited.

Just when Gongsun Zan was full of thoughts, a school lieutenant on the north gate tower had an excited expression on his face. "My lord, conquer the Northern Army, conquer the Northern Army...!" The school captain was a little incoherent under the excitement.

Gongsun Zan was taken aback, grabbed the captain and shouted, "What did you say?"

The captain swallowed, "The envoy of the Northern Army has arrived!"

Gongsun Zan was stunned for a moment, and then he felt that the cloud that was weighing on his heart was suddenly blown away, and he didn't know why he felt this way.

"Where is the envoy now?" Gongsun Zan asked anxiously.

"I have come to the west city! Now I think I have already climbed the city wall!"

"Go! Take me there!" Gongsun Zan dragged the captain along and walked forward.

On the west gate.

The envoys of the Northern Army went up to the city wall through the hanging basket.All the soldiers of the Liaodong Army surrounded them. Standing at the front was Zhang Yan, Gongsun Zan's subordinate who was in charge of defending this side.All the soldiers of the Liaodong Army seemed very excited.

The messenger glanced at the soldiers surrounding him, and finally fixed on Zhang Yan.He clasped his fists and said, "I'm coming down to enlist General Guan of the Northern Army as a lieutenant. May I ask where is General Gongsun?"

Zhang Yan replied: "I am Zhang Yan, I have already sent someone to invite my lord! Your envoy can stay here for a while!"

Immediately Zhang Yan led the envoys to the city gate tower.

While the two were talking, a sergeant reported that Gongsun Zan had arrived.

As soon as the sergeant finished speaking, he walked quickly into the gate tower alone. He was dressed in a brocade robe and a well-shaped golden armor. He had a very depressed temperament, but his expression was very excited.

The messenger recognized the identity of the person at a glance.He stood up and saluted, "Is this General Gongsun?"

Gongsun Zan hurried up to the messenger, grabbed the messenger's arm, and said excitedly, "You guys are here!"

Seeing that it was indeed Gongsun Zan, the envoy immediately bowed down and said, "I have seen General Gongsun, the captain of the Northern Army!" Gongsun Zan hurriedly helped the envoy up, and said repeatedly, "Don't be too polite! Don't be too polite!"

The messenger escaped from his arms and handed two letters to Gongsun Zan, saying, "General Gongsun, these two letters are General Guan's handwritten letter and the letterhead that General Gongsun sent to Shanggu some time ago!"

Gongsun Zan quickly took it, opened the letterhead he sent that day, glanced at it, nodded excitedly, and said, "This is indeed the letterhead I sent to General Guan that day!" Then he opened another letterhead, looked at it carefully After finishing, Gongsun Zan's expression became very excited, and then he showed doubts.

Gongsun Zan asked the envoy to sit down, pointed to the letterhead and asked, "General Guan said that he will launch an attack on Goguryeo immediately. What does that mean?"

The envoy replied: "General Guan has led [-] cavalry into Yang County! General Guan decided to launch an attack on Gepo, where the Goguryeo people stockpiled grain tonight!" [

Gongsun Zan was startled suddenly, and said anxiously, "Don't tell me that General Guan doesn't know that the Goguryeo people have transferred grain to Xu County?"

"What?!" The messenger's expression changed. "General Gongsun, is this news reliable?"

"Absolutely reliable! The Goguryeo people transferred the food there three days ago!"

The messenger frowned tightly, showing a thoughtful look.

Gongsun Zan thought for a while and suggested, "Should the envoy go back immediately to report this to General Guan?"

The envoy shook his head and said: "General Guan has already led the army to march out, and I don't know where they are now! Besides, General Guan will definitely send enough scouts!"

The envoy looked up at Gongsun Zan, clasped his fists and said, "General Gongsun, you and I are on the same front now, and I ask General Gongsun to cooperate with our army's actions!"

Gongsun Zan nodded and said: "

no problem!But now there are only more than [-] people left in our army, I'm afraid we can't help with many things! "

The envoy nodded, "General Gongsun's situation is similar to what General Guan expected! General Gongsun, don't worry, we will never let General Gongsun do the impossible!"

Gongsun Zan responded immediately: "Okay! I will obey General Guan's orders!"

The messenger clasped his fists at Gongsun Zan and said, "Thank you, General Gongsun!"

Gongsun Zan laughed, patted the messenger on the shoulder, and said loudly, "It should be me, Gongsun Zan, and the Liaodong Army who thank you!"

Immediately, Gongsun Zan asked, "But I don't know how General Guan needs our army to cooperate?"

The envoy looked around, and Gongsun Zan understood, and said, "Your envoy, don't worry! These are brothers who live and die with me!"

The envoy nodded and said, "General Guan hopes that General Gongsun will..."

Just at this moment, Gongsun Xu came in suddenly.Glancing at the messenger in plain clothes, he couldn't help but wonder why his father would sit with such a person.Gongsun Xu clasped his fists towards Gongsun Zan and said, "Father, I'm ready!"

Gongsun Zan froze for a moment, remembering the discussion he had with Gongsun Xu before.

"Did General Gongsun do anything?" the envoy asked with some doubts.

Gongsun Zan was taken aback, his face turned pale, and he quickly said, "No, no action!" Then he continued to Gongsun, "Xu'er, this is the envoy sent by General Guan Yu of the Northern Zheng Army!" He turned his back to the envoy , and winked at Gongsun Xu and Gongsun Xu.

Gongsun Xu was taken aback for a moment, and then quickly clasped his fists and said, "My lord, Gongsun Xu, I have met your envoy!"

The messenger showed a dazed expression.He bowed back to Gongsun Xu, and then said to Gongsun Zan, "So it's Mr. Ling! No wonder you're so heroic!"

Gongsun Zan humbly said, "Your envoy is really flattering you!" Then he continued to Gongsun, "Xu'er, you all go back and rest!"

Gongsun continued to promise: "Yes! My child will leave!"

Gongsun Xu left the city gate, and Gongsun Zan secretly wiped a cold sweat.

Thinking of the past, Gongsun Zan asked again: "Your envoy hasn't said what orders General Guan Yu has yet?"

The messenger nodded, moved closer, and told Gongsun Zan about Guan Yu's plan. ...

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

It was dark soon.A crescent moon appears and disappears in the sky.

Guan Yu led [-] cavalry to march southward under the cover of darkness.Quietly bypassed Yang County and entered the hinterland of Youbeiping.Not long after walking again, the scouts suddenly reported that a Goguryeo army was found ahead.

"General, have we been discovered by the Goguryeo people?" King Youxian asked anxiously.

Both Guan Yu and his lieutenant Yang Xian frowned.

Guan Yu asked the scouts: "How many Goguryeo people are there?"

"About one hundred thousand!" The scout replied.

"One hundred thousand?!" Yang Xian was taken aback.

Guan Yu frowned even tighter, and asked again: "How fast are they marching? What's the formation like?"

"The speed is very slow! Marching in four tandems, there is no pathfinding vanguard!"

Guan Yu frowned, and said to the two generals beside him: "The Goguryeo people didn't find our army! This team should be sent to Yang County to strengthen the defense of Yang County!"

"General, what should we do?" Yang Xian asked.

Guan Yu raised his head and glanced at it, and there was a dark scene in front of him.Topographic data about this generation comes to mind.

"Order the whole army to stop advancing! Call the guide!" Guan Yu ordered.

The 30 army stopped immediately.The local guide leading the way for the army was brought before Guan Yu.This guide is a native of Youbeiping, about [-] years old, very dark and thin.

Guan Yu raised his horsewhip and pointed ahead and asked the guide, "Is there a forest in front, just beside the official road, and there is a hill on the other side?"

The guide thought for a while, and replied: "The general is right. There is a large forest beside the official road ahead, with dense vegetation; opposite is a high hill named Liupo!"

Guan Yu nodded, and said to Youxian King and Yang Xian: "Youxian King, you lead ten thousand riders to the willow slope on the right to bury you."

V!Yang Xian, you lead [-] riders into the woods, and you must not expose Xingzang!After I lead [-] cavalry to attack from the front, the two of you will immediately lead the army out and attack the enemy's flanks! "

"Yes!" The two clasped their fists in agreement.King Youxian went down immediately, while Yang Xian showed hesitation.

Seeing Yang Xian's expression, Guan Yu asked, "What questions do you have?"

Yang Xian cupped his fists towards Guan Yu and said, "General, is it not appropriate for our army to attack this Goguryeo army?"

Guan Yu replied: "I understand what you mean. I also want to avoid this enemy army and go straight to Gepo, but the enemy's number is [-], and we also have [-]. Moreover, it is difficult to fight here in a short period of time. To completely hide the army within a short period of time, instead of being discovered by the enemy first and making us passive, it is better to take the initiative to catch them by surprise!"

Yang Xian suddenly realized.

Guan Yu said: "Okay! Go get ready!"

Yang Xian agreed and went down immediately.

The [-] Xiongnu iron cavalry immediately moved into action. King Youxian led [-] cavalry to the willow slope on the right side of the official road. array.

At the same time, the [-] Goguryeo army was marching along the official road to Yang County. Everyone looked very relaxed. The leading general Li Yu was riding on a horse, looking lazy.They didn't realize it at all, but not far away, a big net had been opened against them.

The [-] Goguryeo army slowly approached the open pocket of the Beibei Army.The army first arrived at the official road under Liu Po. Looking down from Liu Po, they saw a long dragon winding its way.

"General, do you want to attack?" a school lieutenant asked You Xianwang softly.

King Youxian shook his head, and ordered: "Pass down the order, without my order, no one is allowed to act recklessly! Anyone who disobeys the order will be beheaded!"

The captain promised, and immediately passed on King Youxian's order. ! ~!
