Three Kingdoms: Start With 3,000 Qin Cavalry To Revive The Qin Dynasty

Chapter 161 Surprise Attack On Nanpi, Preparing To Escape

After hearing Wei Yan's plan, Xue Rengui only thought about it for a moment and then applauded: "This plan, Chief Wen, is a plan to draw out the firepower from the bottom of the cauldron. It is really brilliant."

"In this case, you, General Cheng Yaojin, and General Meng Zhong will lead five thousand light cavalry and rush to Nanpi at night to seize all the families of Yuan Shao and his hundreds of civil and military officials.

"The rest of the generals will lead their own troops and horses to surround Gaoyi and will not let Yuan's army escape."

"Yuan Shao doesn't want to stall for time with this general. In order to wait for the reinforcements to arrive, this general will spend time with him until he becomes a lonely man."

"promise!"

Zhao Yun, Wang Bodang, Huang Zhong and others quickly took orders and led their troops to surround all four gates of Gaoyi without attacking.

Wei Yan, Cheng Yaojin, and Meng Zhong led five thousand light cavalry, marching at starry night, rushing all the way to Nanpi.

Ten days later.

Wei Yan finally led the army and arrived less than five miles away from Nandu.

In order to successfully take over Jizhou from Han Fu, Yuan Shao brought most of his troops to Yecheng.

Only Yuan Tan, the eldest son of 380, was left to lead an army of 3,000 people. Guarding his hometown Nanpi.

Nowadays, the fighting is tense at the front, and no one pays attention to Nanpi at the rear.

On the way Wei Yan came, there were spies in the net who informed Wei Yan of all the information.

"Yuan Shao's family, young and old, as well as the families of Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Xu You, Shen Pei and many other civil servants and generals are all in Nanpi City.

"There are only three thousand defenders in the entire Nanpi City, and there is no defense whatsoever."

"I intend to bluff and launch a mighty offensive from the east, south and north gates under the banner of the main force of our Jin army to besiege Nanpi."

"Yuan's army was out of strength and out of fear, he must have had no choice but to flee from the west gate to Yecheng and other places.

"I recommend.…………"

Wei Yan analyzed the situation, but before he finished speaking, Cheng Yaojin interrupted him with a playful smile:

"Let me, Lao Cheng, personally lead the troops and set up an ambush outside the west gate, waiting for Yuan Shao's family to come out and capture them alive.

"You two brothers, don't worry. If I, Old Cheng, take down Yuan Shao's family (bffd), the two brothers will definitely share the credit."

These were Yuan Shao's family members. If he, Cheng Yaojin, captured them all, the value of such a huge achievement would be unimaginable. Cheng Yaojin knew very well.

When he thought of this, Cheng Yaojin started to drool.

Seeing Cheng Yaojin's shameless face, both Wei Yan and Meng Zhong were speechless.

However, Cheng Yaojin had already taken the lead in grabbing this job. Wei Yan and Meng Zhong naturally could not learn Cheng Yaojin's shameless methods and compete with him.

The two looked at each other with a wry smile on their faces.

"In this case, General Meng Zhong led an army to besiege the south gate, and I personally led an army to attack the north gate, creating the illusion that hundreds of thousands of our Jin army were attacking."

"Okay, just follow General Wei Yan's advice."

After agreeing on a strategy, Wei Yan and the others immediately divided their troops into three groups and launched a mighty offensive against the three gates of Nanpi.

As the main army led by Yuan Shao left, his eldest son Yuan Tan was left to lead three thousand soldiers and horses to guard Nanpi's hometown, and Yuan Tan was left with Lu Kuang, Lu Xiang and Xin Pi to assist him.

Nanpi is the rear area of ​​the entire Jizhou. Although it is Yuan Shao's hometown, everything has always been peaceful. Yuan Shao has nothing to worry about here, so he did not leave any heavy troops.

As the eldest son of Yuan Shao, Yuan Tan has lived a life of fine clothing and fine food since he was a child, without worries about food and clothing.

Now facing the sudden attack by Wei Yan's army, he was already stunned and completely missed.

"Xinpi, stop hanging around in front of me and quickly think of a way to block the Jin army's attack from outside. Otherwise, Nanpi City may be lost."

Yuan Tan looked at Xin Pi circling in front of him and suppressed the anger in his heart.

"My husband, family, and children are all in the city. If the city is attacked by thieves, the consequences will be disastrous. Sir, please think of a way quickly."

Yuan Shao's wife, Mrs. Liu, also looked anxious and could only place her hopes on the wise man Xin Pi.

Next to Mrs. Liu, stood a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old. This man was none other than Yuan Xi, the second son of Yuan Shao.

Standing next to Yuan Xi was a man about thirteen or fourteen years old. There is a young man with a somewhat domineering appearance on his body. This man is Mrs. Liu's biological son, and he is Yuan Shang, the third son of Yuan Shao.

Next to Mrs. Liu, there are seven or eight young and beautiful women. These people are Yuan Shao's concubines.

At this time, both Mrs. Liu and Yuan Xi had a bit of panic and fear on their faces.

Especially the women, all of them were trembling and didn't dare to say another word.

"The Jin army is coming with force and overwhelming force. I don't know how many people are coming. The opponent obviously wants to take advantage of the emptiness of Nanpi to break the city in one fell swoop."

"We have only three thousand defenders in Nanpi City. If we want to resist the powerful Jin army, we may be unable to save our lives."

Xinpi looked helpless and sighed.

Even though he was somewhat resourceful, he couldn't come up with a good idea when faced with such an inevitable defeat.

"What, if you can't defend Lanpi, what should you do? Do you have to watch the thieves enter the city?

Mrs. Liu, who had been pretending to be calm just now, was completely panicked when she heard the words "cannot defend the city" coming out of her mouth.

She was Yuan Shao's first wife, with a distinguished status and a transcendent status. If she were captured by the Jin army, it would be unimaginable what the consequences would be.

"Since we can't defend it, let's just not defend it."

The Jin army cannot have too many soldiers and horses. As long as we create chaos in the city, call all the people out of the city, and then break out of the encirclement in batches, in all directions, even if the Jin army wants to chase, they don't know which direction to pursue. "

Yuan Tan gritted his teeth and made a bold decision.

"No, absolutely not. Madam and several young masters are worth a lot of money. How can they take advantage of the chaos? If something goes wrong, how should the lower class explain themselves to the Lord?

"What's more, the Jin army is brave and good at fighting. Once we abandon the city and break out of the siege, how can we escape the pursuit of the Jin army's cavalry in the wilderness? I'm afraid the opponent will completely crush us.

Seeing Yuan Tan coming up with such a bold move, Xin Pi quickly spoke up to stop him. .
