Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu
Chapter 228: Zhao Yun's Prestige
The East City Gate, which had been silent for many days, slowly opened under the surprised eyes of the Wuhuan people. A group of cavalry filed out. In their bodies, the Wuhuan soldiers felt a strong fighting spirit. The first general, the cavalryman, The white horse holds a bright silver gun, majestic.
Zhao Yun led thirty-seven white horse followers and launched a charge towards the Wuhuan people. The thousand Youzhou cavalry behind him also exerted their strength to let the Wuhuan people see their power.
The Wuhuan soldiers did not expect that the Youzhou army would come out of the city to fight. Under the hasty defense, how could they be Baima Yicong's opponent, especially Zhao Yun, who held the bright silver spear in his hand to block the left and right. In just a moment, there were already eight Wuhuan soldiers in his hands. The Huan cavalrymen were dying. Seeing the leader of the Wuhuan soldiers, Zhao Yun jumped up on his horse and shot him with his gun. With just one shot, he stabbed the Wuhuan general off his horse.
The Youzhou cavalry won the victory at an extremely fast speed, and the two thousand Wuhuan soldiers outside the east gate fled in confusion.
After the victory, the Youzhou cavalry did not make any stop and headed towards the north gate. Zhao Yun was obviously a little dissatisfied with such a victory. He wanted a hearty victory so that the Youzhou cavalry could regain what they had lost before.
Jiang Qu was ordered to provoke the Youzhou Army in the city at the north gate. The three thousand soldiers who followed knew that the Youzhou Army in the city did not dare to go out to fight. The formation seemed a bit sloppy, and some generals even lay lazily on the ground basking in the sun. When they arrived, their general had already told them that if the Youzhou army dared to go out of the city to fight, they would immediately send someone to notify the army, and they would have done a great job.
"General, look quickly." A soldier pointed at the cavalry galloping in the distance.
Jiang Qu didn't take it seriously and said, "What's all the fuss about? It's just the cavalry. Maybe it's the Wuhuan cavalry who are playing outside the city."
"General, general, these cavalrymen are flying the banner of the Youzhou Army." The soldier shouted with a pale face.
Jiang Qu looked sideways, shocked in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Send someone quickly to inform the general that the Youzhou Army has left the city."
The cavalry was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, they reached the front of the formation. The Jizhou Army suddenly panicked. It was just a charge. The formation of the Jizhou Army was in chaos, especially the more than 30 cavalrymen riding white horses at the head. Under his leadership, he was like a god of death, ravaging the Jizhou army.
Jiang Qu's face turned bitter. If this continues and the Youzhou army leaves the city, even if he has no merit, he may still be accused. The other party is obviously here to fight for his life. It's ridiculous that he led the soldiers to play outside the city before.
Facing the wolf-like Youzhou Army, many Jizhou Army soldiers even ran towards the direction of the army.
However, the Youzhou cavalry was unwilling to fight. After defeating the Jizhou army, they rushed towards the west.
The fate of the Jizhou Army in the west of the city was equally miserable. They did not expect that the Youzhou Army in the city would dare to go out of the city to fight.
After three battles and three victories, the morale of the defenders in the city was greatly boosted. The defenders on the top of the city saw with their own eyes how Zhao Yun led a thousand cavalry to sweep through the Wuhuan Army and the Jizhou Army, defeating the enemy. The significance of such a victory to the defenders But it was important, and Zhao Yun's reputation spread throughout the Yan Rou Army and Jizhou Army.
Thinking of Zhao Yun's previous deeds of defeating Yan Liang with two moves, many generals secretly remembered Zhao Yun in their hearts. Jiang Qu was even more grateful to have survived under Zhao Yun before.
Yuan Shao's face was terrifyingly gloomy. Zhao Yun led a thousand cavalry to sweep across the army outside the city, disrupting his layout. What he wanted was to make the defenders in the city despair. He and Yan Rou's army numbered 50,000, and they looked larger than those in the city. The number of defenders is more than doubled, but this is not the case. As the saying goes, "encirclement ten times" means that if you want to attack Xia Jixian, you must have ten times the number of troops. Even though the morale of the Youzhou army is low, there are not five times the number of troops. It is not easy to attack by force. Yuan Shao adopted the most common siege of three and one missing, which gave the defenders in the city hope of survival and made them feel that they could escape as long as they opened the city gate. This method is common. The purpose was to undermine the morale of the defenders.
According to the news coming from Jixian City, Gongsun Zan was already in despair and stayed behind closed doors all day long. Now that the Youzhou Army had won a victory, he would have to pay a higher price if he wanted to capture Jixian County.
"My lord, the Youzhou army is at the end of its strength. Although it has won a small victory, it cannot change the overall situation. Gongsun Zan's defeat is a foregone conclusion." Feng Ji said: "We just have to defend against the Bingzhou army, and Lu Bu has gained two new counties.
, I definitely don’t want to give up here, and the Bingzhou army is strong, so we will make plans early.”
"Yes, it seems that the people in the city need to take action early, otherwise once the Bingzhou army gets involved, this matter will be in trouble." Yuan Shao nodded.
The counselors in the tent all said that capturing Ji County, the prefecture of Youzhou, was of great significance. At the current stage of the war, it was impossible for the Jizhou army to shake hands with Gongsun Zan and make peace. The two sides had reached a fight to the death. If Gongsun Zan was given a break,
In a short period of time, the efforts of the Jizhou Army were in vain.
Gongsun Zan's prestige in Youzhou should not be underestimated. Although he lost two games in a row, he was still not comparable to the Jizhou Army and Yan Rou. Although Yan Rou was under the banner of avenging Liu Yu, half of the soldiers under his command were Wuhuan troops.
, being able to confront Gongsun Zan until now has relied on the Wuhuan army.
There is a force that cannot be ignored in Ji County, and that is the aristocratic family. Yuan Shao has a high prestige in the aristocratic family. The title of the Fourth Generation and the Three Dukes is more for the aristocratic family, not ordinary people. The aristocratic family occupies most of the
Resources, their forces are intertwined, making it difficult to guard against, unless you ensure that there is no family member under your command.
Gongsun Zan's control over Youzhou has not yet reached that level. In fact, if Gongsun Zan can win the battle, the aristocratic families in Youzhou will not mind supporting Gongsun Zan. For them, it is the same for anyone who controls Bingzhou, as long as it does not harm them.
However, Gongsun Zan's repeated defeats disappointed them. What's more, there was Lu Bu, the killer star, in Youzhou. They also urgently needed a stable Youzhou, which was in their interests.
As for sticking to Jixian and letting Jizhou's army run out of food and retreat, the family would not agree. Such a loss would be too great, so it would be natural to join forces with Yuan Shao.
Just when Yuan Shao and the Wuhuan cavalry defeated the Youzhou army, Lu Bu was ready to send troops at any time. The reinforcements Gongsun Zan relied on were defeated by Yuan Shao, and they would not last long. Even if Gongsun Zan wanted to hold on to Jixian, Yuan Shao would not
It will make him happy.
Gongsun Zan in the city heard the news of Zhao Yun's victory, but he still stayed behind closed doors. At this time, he was already thinking about what happened since he took charge of You Beiping. He had already understood the situation in Youzhou, even now.
If Fan can successfully stick to Jixian, he will not achieve great results in the future, and Yuan Shao will not give him such an opportunity.
