Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 9, the Great War outside the Great Wall (2)

Everyone in the big tent was arguing fiercely. Gongsun Zan planned to lead his army to attack directly. Although the opponent had an army of 15, there must be moisture in it, and the quality of the weapons was not good enough. Gongsun Zan was confident that he would lead his army to defeat the opponent's forward.Everyone unanimously agreed, but Gongsun Xu slightly felt that the enemy army was fully prepared for this large-scale attack. Originally, Gongsun Xu did not agree with sending troops, and he was more inclined to stick to the camp and let the opponent attack.

But he couldn't object alone, so he could only ask to stay in the camp, and at the same time, he told Xu Rong to return to the camp by the river. Although Xu Rong can only take 500 people in name, the camp by the river has There are more than 40 young and strong, [-] infantrymen, [-] civilians, and nearly [-] captives. What's more, there is also a new army that he has trained for a month. Although Gongsun Zan did not approve it, Xu Rong believes in his ability .When Xu Rong left, he saw the prosecutor Xu frowned, and he also felt the atmosphere of the war, and said to himself over and over again: "The responsibility is heavy."

Early the next morning, Gongsun Zan led [-] cavalry and [-] infantry to meet the rebels.Liu Gongsun continued to lead [-] infantry troops to stay in the camp.After the army went out, Gongsun Xu ordered the army and civilians in the camp to make dry food, collect fodder, and count the supplies to prepare for retreat at any time. At the same time, he urged Xu Rong to speed up the scheduled plan.Three days later, Gongsun Xu received the news that Gongsun Zan fought the enemy's vanguard, smashed it, killed three thousand enemies, and led the army to continue to penetrate.

After another four days, Gongsun Zan and others did not rush the infantry, leaving Guan Jing's commander Yan Liangwen Chou to lead the infantry slowly up, while he himself led the cavalry to pursue the enemy.When the two armies were about 1 miles apart, Gongsun Zan was in ambush, and more than 10 cavalry were surrounded by [-] people. During the melee, Gongsun Zan shot an arrow with poison, and Gongsun Zan fell into a coma.At the critical moment, Zhao Yun led a thousand elite cavalry disguised as Gongsun Zan to break through to the east to attract the attention of the enemy.

Guan Jing led the rest of the soldiers to protect Gongsun Zan and broke through when the enemy relaxed their vigilance, rushing towards Gongsun Xu's camp.After a day and a night of hard work, he finally met the [-]-step army sent by Gongsun Xu. After returning to the camp, Gongsun Zan was rescued, but he was unable to deal with affairs, and passed out from time to time. The three armies lost their commander and the army was in a state of instability. It had been an hour and there was still no one in the big tent to speak. Gongsun Xu knew that the time was almost up, so he stood up and said to the crowd: "The general is unconscious today. The three armies must have a commander. I recommend Zou Dan The general is temporarily in command of the army until the general wakes up."

Zou Dan's prestige in the army is usually second only to Gongsun Zan, but at this time he does not dare to step into the limelight, and he himself cannot suppress the subordinates.

Guan Jing couldn't do it either, he was worse than himself. After thinking about it, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, stood up and said, "Zou Dan has little talent and learning, so he doesn't dare to take on this big task, but my class recommends one person to lead an army to defeat the enemy."

After finishing speaking, Zou Dan pointed to Gongsun Xu and said: "The young general has fought with the general since he was a child, has experienced many battles, and is well-known in the army. In addition, if I wait for my full assistance, I will be able to survive until the general wakes up. "

Immediately after speaking, he winked at Guan Jing, and Guan Jing knelt down on one knee knowingly and said, "I would like to listen to the command of the major general." The remaining two big heads in the army are like this, and others have no reason to object.

Everyone knelt down and shouted: "I would like to listen to the orders of the major general." Gongsun Xu smiled in his heart, without delay, he said to the crowd: "I also ask all the uncles to assist you."

The next step is to discuss what to do.Guan Jing suggested that the army pull out its camp and retreat to Guanzi City in western Liaoning. Although the journey is far away, if there is a city wall to rely on, it will definitely be able to defend for several months.Many people agree.

But Yan Liang said: "The enemy army has come prepared. It is a long way to Guanzi City in western Liaoning. I am afraid that I will be caught up halfway because I am mostly infantry. At that time, I will not be able to defend in the wild, and I will not be able to fight with you." The enemy army is fighting, and I am afraid that it is not far from defeat."

Gongsun Xu nodded after hearing this, thinking in his heart: "Yan Liang and I thought about going together, we can see the situation clearly from the chaotic situation, and if we take time to cultivate it, we are definitely a handsome talent." "

At this time Gongsun Xu stood up and said: "The army pulled out the camp and retreated to the big camp by the river. The big camp by the river is surrounded by water on three sides. I can stay in the camp. I have checked the upper reaches of the river. The water level is not high this season, so don't be afraid of them." There will be accumulated water breaking through the camp, so let’s go now.” After receiving the order, everyone immediately went down to prepare, and the next day the whole army arrived at the camp by the river, and Xu Rong was also ready for everything.

Two days later, the Marquis of Assassin brought news that Zhao Yun led his army to flee for five hundred miles to get rid of the enemy, less than fifty miles away from his own camp, and there was a large enemy army behind him. Gongsun Xu immediately ordered Yan Liangwenchou to go to meet him. Yan Liangwenchou Each led 1 cavalry to ambush in favorable terrain. When Zhao Yun came over, the two armies launched an attack at the same time.

The enemy army was in chaos, a scuffle, the rebels retreated after leaving 3000 corpses, and Yan Liangwen Chou also lost more than [-] people. After cleaning the battlefield, they all returned to the camp.

Gongsun Xu personally led the army to greet him at the gate of the camp. Zhao Yun learned about the situation in the army from Yan Liangna along the way. When he saw Gongsun Xu coming to greet him, Zhao Yun was greatly moved. "

Gongsun Xu looked at the former cavalry brought by Zhao Yun, and now there are less than [-] left, all of them are wounded, and many of them are very weak, so he shouted at the army: "The ones who came back are all good, and they will sleep here forever." All are heroes. In this battle, our army will win." All three armies shouted: "We must win, we must win, we must win..."

Two hours later, the rebels came to challenge. Although Zhao Yun was injured, he still insisted on fighting together.Outside the camp gate, [-] rebel vanguards blocked the only way out.When he saw Gongsun Xuyi's formation, Qiu Lixiong, the younger brother of his vanguard general Qiu Liju, laughed and said: "There is no one in the Han army, who bullies me with a child, who will behead this son for me?"

A general rushed out on his horse and shouted: "I'm coming." Yan Liang was furious, but Kuai Wenchou and Zhang Fei rushed out of the formation without saying a word, and hit when he came up.The rebel general was also unambiguous, he picked up the horse fork and stabbed, but unfortunately, the two were far behind in strength, and before they met each other, the head of the rebel general flew off.

Qiu Lixiong was terrified, the warriors in the army disappeared like this, and five people in a row said: "You all go up to me, we will definitely take this person down."

Five people rushed towards Yan Liang on horseback and prepared to surround Yan Liang and beat him.However, this behavior angered the two of them.Zhang Fei has a bad temper, and he found an enemy general and charged up without saying hello to Gongsun Xu. Young master bully, are prairie dogs all cowards?"

In a blink of an eye, he stabbed an enemy general with a spear, and within a round, Wen Chou's spear had already pierced through the opponent's chest, and Zhao Yun was the only one who could see Wen Chou's attack clearly from both sides. Before he finished speaking, the battlefield was over. Zhang Fei hadn't mastered martial arts yet, and it was his first time fighting, but this did not prevent him from beheading the opponent.

Yan Liang hacked two people in a row, and the remaining one was about to escape, but Wen Chou caught up and stabbed him to death from behind. Wen Chou threw the body ten meters away with a roar.On Qiu Lixiong's side, the five great warriors in the army were defeated, and their morale suffered a lot. On the other hand, Gongsun Xu's morale was greatly boosted, and his murderous intent was overwhelming.Yan Liang sat on the horse and looked at Qiu Lixiong, while Zhang Fei also looked at each other's generals excitedly.

Wen Chou didn't even bother to look at it and said directly: "Who will come to die again." Zhang Fei with a loud voice felt that it was not enough.

So Zhang Fei pointed his spear at the sky and shouted loudly: "Zhang Fei from Yan is here, who dares to fight." The voice was even stronger than Wen Chou.This time the challenge was considered to be a big loss, the opponent had too many strong generals, and they couldn't win by single-handedly.Go back and report to the elder brother and wait for the elder brother to make a decision.

It was snowing heavily in the sky, watching the opponent's army retreat, Gongsun Xu did not pursue, but ordered to withdraw the troops and return to the camp. There are still three hours before dark, and the main force of the opponent should arrive the day after tomorrow. It will be difficult for the whole army to launch a fierce attack by then ah.

This is the thinking of many soldiers.Although occupying the big camp, we only need to deal with the situation on one side, but it is better to promise that there is no city wall, and now it is snowing again, the lethality of bows and arrows will be greatly reduced.At that time, if the camp is breached, I am afraid that there is only a desperate fight.Looking at the heavy snow in the sky, Gongsun Xu sighed in his heart: "It's good luck, the temperature may drop a lot this time, the enemy army is coming from afar, many cattle and sheep should be frozen to death, and it will be difficult to find them after the heavy snow. There is enough forage, and the forage within a hundred miles nearby has been robbed by myself, this time I will let your entire army starve to death here."

Since there were a lot of cattle, sheep and horses in Gongsun Xu's army, the forage stocked in the past was not enough to survive the winter. Three days ago, Gongsun Xu ordered all the sheep to be slaughtered. It was cold and the mutton would not be spoiled. The sheepskins were processed and distributed to the soldiers to keep out the cold.

On the second day after the heavy snowfall, the grassland was already covered with whiteness. The snow was too thick, and there was no tendency to stop.When everyone was worried that the enemy would attack the camp, Gongsun Xu ordered to boil water, collect sand, and build the city.At first, everyone didn't understand, but after Gongsun Xu explained to them, they all suddenly understood. At this moment, all the generals in the army admired this young general.

"If you don't fight unprepared battles, the major general has the qualifications of a famous general." Zhao Yun sighed slightly in his heart, "Maybe, soon, this kid will become famous all over the world. Maybe he is the one I can follow."

Since ancient times, the king chooses his ministers, and the ministers also choose his king. Gongsun Zan's personal charm could not completely convince Zhao Yun and Yan Liang, but now there is an extra Gongsun Xu. After this series of events, both Zhao Yun and Yan Liang have a follower. Although Gongsun Xu is still young, it is precisely because of his youth that he wants to follow.

The current Gongsun Xu has a lot of room for development, and there is an old man who is powerful outside the Great Wall. In addition, he can grow up with Gongsun Xu now. This has been the wish of all soldiers since ancient times. Who would want to win Wei Huo's meritorious service, leaving his name in history, conferring his wife and son, is right in front of him.
