The Conquest of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 261 The Battle of Guandu

Yuan Shao used his pen to draw a line along the map from Chen to the place where the army disappeared to the west.The line stretched forward and then bent downward. After finishing the drawing, he threw away the pen. He looked at it for a long time without saying a word.

All the generals of the Yuan family raised their heads to look, and everyone gasped.

Yuan Shao: "This is the only marching route for Chen Dao's army to encircle our Henan province! Do you think it is possible?"

All the generals of the Yuan family who were present fell silent.

Ju Shou took the lead and said: "That is to say, Chen Dao's army will concentrate all its forces to pass through the jurisdiction of Chen Dao, Wen Chou and General Han Qiong, sweep from east to west, and cut down our army between Jizhou and Guandu. Then move backwards in a big roundabout..."

The generals of the Yuan family are still silent, because they are still not sure if this is possible. If there is such a possibility, it means that this is a big failure, not a success, but where is the current Chen Dao army?

Facing the generals who were still silent, Yuan Shao shouted hysterically: "Say it! Is there such a possibility?!"

Han Meng stood up and said: "According to Chen Dao's surprise attack on our Xuchang area last time, the general thought that there was such a possibility... Chen Dao's mobile use of the cavalry corps, long-distance raids are no longer under the control of my Yuan family and the Huns. .”

And Lu Kuang, who was not convinced next to him, said: "Don't make myths about Chen Dao. The last time Xuchang fell, it was entirely because my main force was in Jizhou, and the troops in Xuchang area were scattered in various places, so Chen Dao had an opportunity. Besides, The last time Chen Dao had only [-] cavalry, but this time it was [-]. Is it unimaginable that such a huge cavalry regiment can march such a long distance without being noticed?"

Yuan Shao asked back, "You mean it's impossible?"

Lu Kuang replied more firmly this time: "There is no such possibility at all."

Yuan Shao questioned the general who didn't know the heights of heaven and earth, and said, "Then tell me, general, where is Chen Dao's army now? Tell me!"

Suddenly, Lu Kuang, who was being questioned, couldn't find anything to say, so he kept a kind of silence, a kind of silence that lowered his head and didn't believe himself.

Yuan Shao: "Last time we scattered around Xuchang, thinking that the enemy would not launch an attack at least a month later, we were defeated by the enemy in a single game, but this time, we did not make sufficient preparations this time, and were defeated by the enemy." The army was scattered and defeated, and the two situations were like withdrawing once, how similar to Nair!"

The generals of the Yuan family looked at each other. Facing the general's censure, none of them dared to step forward to answer. Except for Jushou, who was a general, almost all the generals were not of high rank, so they dared not greet him. Yuan Shao's words.

Yuan Shao pried the ground with the crutch in his hand and said loudly: "We used the tactic of 'strike east and attack west' against the Chu army. Could it be that the Chu army also implemented the same tactic against me?"

Han Meng reminded: "General, do you want to withdraw all the main forces that I participated in setting up an ambush and transfer them to Guandu?" Lu Kuang shook his head and said, "It's not easy to say. There is no food and logistics guarantee for such a long-distance transfer. Without corresponding combat preparations, hasty mobilization will inevitably lead to overall chaos."

Yuan Shao couldn't help but sighed, "Yes, if Chen Dao burns down the Yellow River pontoon bridge, there is nothing we can do even if we get to the south line. If we build a pontoon bridge on the Yellow River, it will take a month. If it takes a month, I think the ten Guandu battles have all been fought!"

As for the Guandu area that they have been paying attention to, an earth-shattering battle has indeed taken place now.

On the battlefield of Guandu, Chen Dao's command flag was waved, and the order was passed down, hundreds of strong bows and crossbows shot in unison.

Countless sharp arrows, accompanied by the howling sound of thousands of birds fluttering their wings, pierced the air and fell towards Yuan Jun like raindrops.

Although some of the arrows missed, most of the bows and arrows penetrated the chests of these unprepared Yuan Jun soldiers.

The second batch of Yuan Jun soldiers in a panic hurriedly raised their huge shields, and the second batch of bows and arrows were nailed to these shields, and these feather arrows were bounced off like raindrops, but there were still many piercing holes. Passing through the gap in the large shield, he shot Yuan Jun's soldiers hiding below.

There were screams one after another.

However, Yuan Jun did not slow down his pace because of this, and still pressed towards Chu Jun fearlessly.

Looking down at Yuan Jun advancing in an orderly manner, Chen Dao shouted loudly: "Brothers, charge me, kill me!"

In a short time, thousands of Yuan troops crossed several river beaches and engaged in battle with Chu troops.

A hand-to-hand battle is just around the corner.

Chen Dao raised his sword eyebrows, shot with murderous aura all over his body, swung his sword, and shouted sharply: "Second team, kill me!"

When Chen Kaige heard about Chen Dao's generals, he went forward and designed them like an arrow flying off the string.

The soldiers of the Chu army who had charged out roared in unison.

The rumbling howling sound spread all over the field, which shocked Yuan Jun, who had already neglected to guard against it.

A few hundred steps away, Wen Chou, who was watching the battle with his gun in his arms, couldn't help but change his scarred face slightly, thinking to himself: "I never thought that this nameless kid would be so crazy."

Wen Chou was astonished, and his fighting spirit seemed to be gradually fading away.

Originally, Wen Chou, who wanted to retreat, was suddenly shot by a flying feather arrow and fell directly under the horse.

General Yan Liang, who was next to him, saw his brother was shot, and shouted loudly, "Brother, brother."

He gritted his teeth secretly, and snorted coldly: "We traveled the world with General Yuan, who were we afraid of?"

After finishing speaking, Yan Liang jumped off his horse, rushed to the drum array with a few steps, and snatched a drummer's wooden hammer.

He rolled up his sleeves, and with a pair of iron arms as round as the mouth of a bowl, he swung them up and beat the drum vigorously to cheer for the soldiers under him.

Seeing Yan Liang beating the drums for them personally, the thousands of people under his command were inspired by this, their morale was greatly boosted, the sound of shouting and killing shook the sky, and they gradually became sober from the chaos.

Countless Molotov cocktails were thrown out by the soldiers of the Chu army one after another, igniting rotten sparks one after another.

Amidst the howling sound, a bloody enemy fell off his horse, or fell asleep on his own land forever.

Although, occasionally, Yuan Jun also had bows and arrows, but they were still ruthlessly killed.

In the dense rain of arrows, the cavalry of the Chu army who were charging with their horses kept falling off their horses with heavy arrows. Some fell off the horses and died directly, and some were dragged to death by the horses after falling. The bodies of the Chu army and the enemy's The corpses were jumbled together.

To the north, some Yuan Jun had already torn apart the Chu Army's encirclement and began to flee and retreat.

Seeing this, Chen Dao Zhuma shouted sharply: "Jun Sima, Jun Sima..."

Chen Kaige, who was in the midst of the chaos, responded, "The end is here."

"Shoot all those fleeing enemies for me."

Chen Kaige took the lead and led his fierce cavalry in pursuit, shooting and killing the fleeing enemies.

In the gallop and roar, the big knife swept out like a wheel.

Countless soldiers of Yuan Jun were cut off and flew out.

Among the chaotic army, the lives of countless people scratched a full stop.

…………

After about four hours of fierce fighting, the ancient battle on the battlefield was finally lonely.

A pile of corpses, the soldiers of the Chu army were collecting the dead victims, these victims not only included the soldiers of the Chu army, but also those soldiers of the Yuan family.

The cry of crows came from the sky, and these black elves were full of bloody sensitivity.

Hundreds of thousands of disarmed Yuan family soldiers lined up, and the Chu army escorted them past Chen Dao's horse.

Chen Dao looked at them silently.

The prisoners of the Yuan family all lowered their heads, and some looked up at Chen Dao in frustration.

Chen Kaige rode his horse over covered in blood, and reported to Chen Dao: "General, two brothers Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi led a small number of soldiers and fled north. In addition, Yan Liang also died in the chaos, and Wen Chou was also shot. Two pillars have been broken!"

Another group of people came over, led by Hu Che'er, the forward general of the Zhang Xiu Army. When Hu Che'er saw the general after Chen Dao, he dismounted immediately and reported the achievements of the Zhang Xiu Army to Chen Dao, saying:

"Except for those who escaped, the Guandu defenders were all wiped out, and all their chariots, luggage and livestock property were seized, including more than 100 million horses, cattle, and sheep... In addition, we also defeated Zhang Jaw and Gao Lan by the way. Two armies, but they did not return north, but fled west."

Chen Dao asked: "Fleeing to the west, it seems that we still have a big battle to fight in the future. Is this definitely a troublesome matter?"

Chen Kaige next to him asked for instructions: "General, are we going to pursue Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang's defeated army? They led at least tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to escape from Guandu City."

Chen Dao said tirelessly: "No need, a general who only knows how to run away is no longer worth pursuing."

Chen Dao slammed his horse and asked sharply, "Where is the herald?"

The herald hurriedly ran over and replied: "The last general is here, please give orders to the general."

"How long has it been since we reported information to King Chu?"

"General Qi, there has been no notification for ten days."

Chen Daomong ordered, "Send Hongling envoys urgently to report the victory to the King of Chu. The whole army, clean up the battlefield, build defenses, repair and prepare for the battle..."

At this time, the messenger sent by Chen Dao was galloping back and forth on the road, but Chen Dao's cavalry regiment was marching in a hurry without stopping for a moment.

After a day's journey, they finally stopped for a short rest.

In this way, the darkness of the night enveloped the entire camp. At this time, the night was like a sleeping baby, and also like an unpolluted forest.

The sky is the blue that Picasso just wiped on, and it still retains water, which is evaporating in a piece of pure land, nourishing every sleeping creature on the quiet land, including the hearts of all or soldiers of the Chu army. Drive the thoughts of Chu Jun.

Chen Dao walks in the dark night, when the breeze is dancing.Enjoy the night to the fullest.

It was at this time that Chen Dao also received an order from the army to stand by.
