Three Kingdoms Online Games: Battle for Hegemony

Chapter 1228: Capture Huguan County

Hearing what the messenger said, Huangfu was overjoyed and quickly ordered: "Come on, tell the three armies, Lu Bu's cavalry has let General Zhao Yun lead them back!"

The white horse Yicong listened to Huangfu Chaobo's words and glanced at him hesitantly. When he was about to speak, he was stopped by Guo Jia's eyes.

Sure enough, after the news that Lu Bu's cavalry had been repulsed, the morale of the Tang army was greatly boosted, while the morale of the Zhao army who defended the city was obviously stagnant.

A moment later, when Zhao Yun returned with more than 20,000 cavalry, the soldiers of the Tang army were even more motivated. Seeing more than 30,000 cavalry set off, only half of them returned. Huangfu Chaobo couldn’t help but feel distressed. The most elite cavalry, especially the 30,000 special arms, has lost nearly half now.

Soon, Zhao Yun rode his horse to the Chinese Army. After turning over and dismounting, he quickly stepped up to the watchtower and paid his life to Huangfu Chaobo: "The last will meet the king, but fortunately, Zhao Wang Lubu has led the cavalry to retreat. . However, my cavalry also suffered heavy losses."

After that, Zhao Yun reported the damage of the army to Huangfu Chaobo. After hearing Zhao Yun's words, everyone on the watchtower took a breath. After the First World War, the most elite cavalry of the Tang army was lost. Over 15,000, this should be the biggest loss for the Tang Army cavalry since the beginning, and Lu Bu's cavalry lost only 15,000.

You know, the Tang army had six thousand more cavalrymen, and in the end they fought a match, which shows that the cavalry under Lu Bu's combat power is stronger.

When the people of the Tang Army were in shock, Lu Bu was also in great grief in the camp. The 30,000 wolves he had accumulated with great difficulty lost half of the 30,000 Bianzhou wolf riders under World War I. After having lunch in the camp at noon, Lu Bu again He wanted to lead his troops into battle, but was discouraged by his subordinates.

"My lord, you can no longer fight the Tang army. Although the Tang army cavalry is equivalent to our army, there are a large number of crossbowmen. If they are targeted by their crossbowmen again, the loss will be even greater. According to the arrangements of the state, If you only need to hold down Tang Jun's energy, delay the time to attack the city as much as possible, and buy time for the transfer of people, there is no need to die with Tang Jun."

"Yes, King..."

"Yes, my lord, Tang has a lot of land and people. It is not difficult to replenish soldiers and horses, but my Zhao State is different. If you want to replenish soldiers and horses, it is not as easy as they are.

Under the persuasion of general generals, Lu Bu did not rebuke them. Think about it, the entire Zhao country’s population is only more than one million, and the loss of 15,000 Bingzhou Langqi will take him several years to replenish it. If you carry it a few times, even if you eat all of their remaining more than 20,000 cavalry, it is estimated that your wolf ride will eventually be run out.

In the next two days, the war between the two cavalry forces of Tang and Zhao had no more than a thousand people, but the small fights between the two armies continued.

Hundreds of wolves, usually wolves, suddenly appeared on the periphery of the siege army, and then Zhao Qu immediately sent troops to drive them away. After a while, hundreds of wolves appeared in the other direction, and Zhao Yun sent another troops. Drive it away, such repeated confrontations.

The war in Huguan City is also proceeding in an orderly manner. Even if the Bingzhou wolf rides from time to time, it does not have much influence on the siege army. Huben Camp, Leopard Tao Camp, Yingyang Camp and then Together with the iron eagle sharp guards of the Guards, with the support of Yuan Rong crossbowmen, they launched a continuous attack towards Huguan County.

Over time, the ratio of the offensive and defensive battle losses has almost reached one to one, and there is a tendency to continue to expand. There is no way, the soldiers of the Tang Army’s offensive are much more elite than the soldiers of Zhao Jun’s defenders. Almost every round of the offensive has several soldiers able to attack the top of the city. Once Tang’s soldiers attack the top of the city, Zhang Yang and Li Feng will It took several times the casualties of the soldiers to retreat the Tang Army's attack. As a result, the losses caused by the advantage of the city wall to the attacking party were eliminated in these few battles for the city.

Coupled with the continuous attacks of thousands of yuan of crossbow soldiers under the city, it also made the soldiers at the head of the city suffer. In a few days, Zhao Jun only had thousands of soldiers killed and injured under the crossbow arrows. In addition to the soldiers lost in each battle at the head of the city, by the third day of the battle, Zhao Jun's losses had exceeded five thousand.

Originally, the morale of the generals of the Zhao army was a little low because of the defeat of the Lu Bu cavalry. Now facing such a powerful offensive by the Tang army, it is even worse.

On the fourth day, Huangfu Jianshou left the soldiers of the first school to defend the Elder Son City. He personally led the two schools, a total of 10,000 Tiger Jie battalions, rushed to Huguan City to support, facing the Tang army, Zhao Jun’s Morale was hit again.

Originally, Zhang Yang hoped that the army could withdraw from the Shangdang party as soon as possible in order to preserve more strength, but now the people in the four northern cities of the Shangdang party, including Niexian, Tongdan, Xiangyuan, and Huguan, have already withdrawn from the Shangdang area. People in the three cities of Luxian, Guyuan, and Zhanxian, which are farther away, are still a few days away from the county seat of Niexian, let alone withdrawn to the north of Nanguan. You know, there are more than fifty to sixty thousand people. The population of Lü Bu is indeed unwilling to give up.

So Lu Bu ordered Zhang Yang Zhujiang to guard the Huguan for about five more days. At the same time, Chen Gong had also rushed to Nie County to personally direct and arrange the relocation of the people. After learning about the situation, Chen Gong advised Lu Bu, First withdraw five thousand soldiers and horses from the Shangdang city, and then, together with the ten thousand foot soldiers in the city camp, quietly withdrew back to Nie County to prepare for layers of resistance.

At the same time, 20,000 war horses were also quietly sent into the city of Yihuguan. Now there are 25,000 soldiers in the city of Huguan. After the 5,000 are transferred away, there are only 20,000 soldiers remaining. Within a few days, there must be considerable losses. In this way, these horses will be enough for all Zhao Jun in Huguan City to evacuate smoothly.

With the help of war horses, and the fact that Lu Bu's 15,000 wolf riders were personally broken off, Chen Gong was confident that most of the Zhao Jun infantry in Huguan City could be successfully withdrawn to Taiyuan.

At this time, the Tang Jun people did not expect Chen Gong to come. Although there has been news that Zhao Jun has moved the people from several cities to the north to Nie County, but they did not expect Chen Gong to do so. He did not want to defend the northern cities of Shangdang.

On the evening of the fifth day of October, ten days after the start of the war in Huguan City, Sergeant Zhao evacuated from the North Gate overnight, abandoned Huguan County, and retreated towards Xiangyuan to the north. By the time Tang Jun got the news, it was already two hours later. When it happened, Huangfu Chaobo quickly sent someone to capture Huguan City while sending Zhao Yun to pursue it. However, Zhao Yun chased him a dozen miles to the north of Huguan, but was blocked by 15,000 cavalry led by Lu Bu. In desperation, he had to watch Zhao Jun go away.
