Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 831: Yuan Tan breaks the North Sea

However, things went counterproductive. Although Li Fu had an army of 15,000, Yuan Tan was invincible on the battlefield with his elite cavalry.

When the two armies were fighting, Yuan Tan took the lead with three thousand cavalry and drove away the Yellow Turban Army's camp, and then led his infantry to cover up the killing. The Yellow Turban Army killed corpses all over the field, and many of them surrendered.

When the news of Li Fu's defeat spread to the army, Guan Hai was shocked. Originally, he did not take Yuan Tan seriously, but he was relying on Yuan Shao's shadow.

Seeing that the morale of the army was no longer available, Guan Hai had no choice but to gather his troops and leave helplessly.

On the city wall, Tai Shici breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the Yellow Turban Army receding like a tide. The Yellow Turban Army attacked the city one after another. Not to mention ordinary soldiers, even he was a little overwhelmed. He had not stepped off the city wall for half a month.

The defenders burst out with loud shouts, the Yellow Turbans retreated, and their homeland was defended.

Kong Rong held a banquet in the mansion that night to celebrate, and the banquet was very lively.

The next day, Yuan Tan arrived with his army. The defenders in Jixian County were once again in a state of tension. After seeing clearly that it was Yuan Tan's banner from Qingzhou, many generals secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Yuan Tan was appointed by the imperial court no matter what.

The governor of Qingzhou can be regarded as one of our own soldiers.

Taishi Ci rushed to the city after hearing the news, his face a little gloomy. Yuan Tan coming at this time was definitely not as simple as rushing to help Beihai. The distance from the plain to Beihai was not far. If Yuan Tan had had the intention, he would have arrived long ago.

"Prime Minister, Yuan Tan is coming with great momentum. I'm afraid the person who came here is evil." Sun Shao said.

Kong Rong snorted: "Yuan Tan is the governor of Qingzhou, but I am also the prime minister of Beihai. If Yuan Tan dares to attack Beihai, I will definitely report it to the emperor."

Sun Shao shook his head secretly. It would be very difficult to use the imperial court to suppress Yuan Tan at this time. He knew better than anyone what the imperial court was like.

"Kong Rong, the governor led the army to defeat the remnants of the Yellow Turbans and relieved the crisis in Beihai. Why don't you open the city gate and welcome the governor into the city?" Yuan Tan shouted.

Kong Rong cupped his hands and said: "I am very grateful to Governor Yuan for leading the troops to help. However, after the war, the city was in chaos. How about if Governor Yuan was stationed outside the city, I would order people to reward the army?" Although Kong Rong

I am proud, but I will not anger Yuan Tan at this time.

"Kong Rong, my son, do you think you look down on me? I came with my troops, but you turned me away. What's the point? Do you think my son is easy to bully?" Yuan Tan said angrily.

"Prime Minister, Yuan Tan's plan may be Beihai, so be careful." Taishi Ci said.

Kong Rong nodded slightly. How could he not see Yuan Tan's intentions? This was also the reason why he never asked for help when Beihai was in danger. Although the Yuan family had the reputation of being the fourth generation and the third prince, Kong Rong looked down upon him, and

Judging from Yuan Shao's performance, he is an ambitious man and is on the same level as Cao Cao of Yanzhou.

"Yuan Tan, you came with your troops. I am very grateful. If you want to enter the city, you can't." Kong Rong flatly refused and even changed his name to Yuan Tan.

"The officers and men of the three armies must obey orders. If Kong Rong, a child, disobeys the orders of the Governor, he shall be killed," Yuan Tan shouted.

"Kill, kill, kill..." The soldiers who had been arranged in advance heard Yuan Tan's shout, and the voices gradually gathered in one place and resounded throughout the sky.

The defenders on the city were also frightened by this momentum. After a difficult battle, they thought they would settle down, but unexpectedly Yuan Tan arrived with his troops.

Kong Rong's face was a little ugly. He didn't expect Yuan Tan to make such an excuse. At this time, the situation in the city no longer allowed him to think better. Although Yuan Tan only had 20,000 soldiers and horses, there were no more soldiers in the city to fight.

With just over a thousand people, they would probably be defeated by Yuan Tan within a few days. Yuan Tan was not a remnant of the Yellow Turbans, and they had enough means to attack the city.

The bed crossbows fixed on the vehicles were pushed to a distance of 150 steps from the city wall, and the soldiers controlling the bed crossbows aimed the bed crossbows at the city head.

"Let go!" Yuan Tan shouted, and fifty crossbows were fired at the same time.

Crossbow arrows roared in, and the defenders on the city even forgot to defend themselves. They did not expect that the army outside the city would cause harm to them at such a long distance.

"Prime Minister, leave now!" Taishi Ci shouted and stood in front of Kong Rong, staring outside the city with bright eyes. He also did not expect that Yuan Tan would have a bed crossbow.

Although there were only fifty crossbows, it was enough for the defenders who resisted the Yellow Turban Army's siege for more than half a month.

The armor on his body could not block the power of the crossbow, and a defender who was caught off guard was shot through.

Taishi Ci roared angrily and struck a crossbow arrow with both halberds. Unable to stop himself, he took a few steps back before regaining his balance.

The crossbows were fired continuously for a day, and the next day, Yuan Tan's army launched an attack on Ju County. At this time, there were many crossbows on the city wall. Some dexterous soldiers were able to use the crossbows to stabilize themselves after the defenders pushed down the ladders.

This is an unequal war.

For three consecutive days, the defenders were very tenacious and drove down Yuan Tan's soldiers who had attacked the city wall several times.

"We can't defend Jixian County anymore," Kong Rong sighed.

The civil servants and generals in the field were silent after hearing this. The army led by Yuan Tan was too powerful, making it difficult for them to respond effectively, especially the bed crossbows, which had frightened the defenders. At this time, there were only a hundred soldiers in the city who could fight.

Many soldiers were wounded and went into battle. It was impossible to defend Beihai with these people.

"Everyone, please run away for your lives." After a long time, Kong Rong made up his mind.

"Follow the Prime Minister to the death." Cheng Su hurriedly came out and said, Kong Rong is here, he Cheng Su is the commander-in-chief of the army. If Kong Rong is gone, he is nothing. The commander-in-chief of the Northern Navy is nothing to Yuan Tan.

Don’t count.

Kong Rong glanced at Cheng Su and said: "General Cheng ordered his troops and horses to break out with me and go to Jingzhou. I don't believe that I haven't reasoned with you yet."

"Prime Minister, the west wall has been breached by the enemy." A soldier staggered in and shouted.

"Prime Minister, it's no time to delay. Let's go quickly." Cheng Su said.

Kong Rong said anxiously: "General Cheng ordered people to bring my family members with me."

As soon as he finished speaking, another soldier ran in and said, "Prime Minister, the south gate has been breached by the enemy."

"Prime Minister, let's go." Cheng Su winked at the soldiers on the side and took Kong Rong away. As for Kong Rong's family members, they couldn't even save their lives now, so how could they care about their family members.

Taishi Ci, who was struggling to support himself at the north gate, received the news that Yuan Tan's army was entering the city. He sighed and left with Yang Feng, heading towards Jizhou. As long as they passed through Jizhou, they could reach Bingzhou.

The two halberds plus a spear killed the enemy troops blocking the way outside the city, causing them to retreat.

After Juxian County was captured, Yuan Tan followed Xin Ping's advice and launched a plan to pacify the people, and the other counties surrendered. At this point, except for Donglai, all Qingzhou was in Yuan Tan's hands.
