Chapter 67 Soldiers besieged Youbei City, and captured the white horse general Gongsun Zan alive!!

Right North County.

The news of Luoyang’s dispatch of troops has spread recently.

As soon as Gongsun Zan came, he summoned all the Wen Wu to come.

All the Wen Wu gathered in the hall of the mansion, and Gongsun Zan looked a little ugly.

When Yan Gang, Tian Kai and the others came, they had already learned the relevant news.

Their looks were also not good-looking, originally the Right Northern Army had suffered a heavy blow not long ago, and now Luoyang is attacking with heavy troops.

How can the Right North County resist?

“The reason for calling you here today must be known to you.”

Gongsun Zan said straight to the point.

“Yes.”

Yan Gang, Tian Kai and the others replied

“In that case, Bengong will go straight to the point, what should we do in the face of the onslaught of the Han family?”

Gongsun Zan went straight to the point.

After speaking, he looked at Wen Wu who was present.

“This is the first battle in which the Han emperor succeeds to the throne, it is very important for the Han family, and it will not be easy for our army to achieve victory.”

Tian Kai frowned.

“Good.”

Yan Gang echoed.

Gongsun Zan looked a little impatient, of course he understood this, this was just nonsense.

What he wants is how to deal with the current situation, or the existential crisis of the Right Northern Army.

“Hold on.”

Tian Kai held back for a long time and said these two words.

Youbei County has no other way but to hold on to it, and taking the initiative to attack is even more looking for death. An ambush is too dangerous, after all, how many troops the Han family dispatched is unknown.

“Is it only dead?”

Gongsun Zan smiled bitterly.

The death hold was undoubtedly prolonging the time for the right north county to be breached, without sufficient food and reinforcements.

The fall of Right North County was only a matter of time.

“Whew…”

Gongsun Zan took a deep breath and tried to calm his mind.

“Lord, Youbei County is close to the Beidi Plain, and eighty percent of the army dispatched by the Han family has cavalry.”

Yan Gang paused.

“As long as we hold on to it, that part of the cavalry will do nothing, maybe it can make the Han army retreat.”

He continued.

Hearing this, Gongsun Zhan’s expression looked a little better.

“Tread…”

At that time, there was a sound of footsteps.

He saw Gongsun Fan walk in with a solemn expression, and hurriedly saluted.

“Say it bluntly.”

Gongsun Zhan’s heart was raised to his throat, and he urged vigorously.

“The Han army is menacing, it has already captured several important places one after another, and now it is heading straight for the right north city.”

Gongsun Fan gasped and said.

Obviously, as soon as he got the news, he hurriedly came to report. After listening, Gongsun Zhan’s face turned pale.

His side was discussing how to resist the Han army, and the Han army came so quickly, and it even connected several cities with lightning speed.

Everyone present gasped and had to marvel at the strength of the Han army. No wonder that when Youzhou had few troops, it could also inflict heavy losses on the Right Northern Army.

“If Youzhou also makes a change to launch a sandwich attack between the two armies, then the Right North City will definitely fall.”

Yan Gang was a little worried.

“No, Youzhou will definitely not move.”

Tian Kai said categorically.

Hearing this, Gongsun Zan looked towards Tian Kai to see why he was so confident.

“Because the Han army is coming straight to Youbei City, if Youzhou wants to move, it must be the Youzhou Han army that arrives first.”

Tian Kai explained.

“Look at my head.”

Yan Gang patted his head.

He shouldn’t ignore this, mainly because he was in too much of a hurry.

“In any case, the Luoyang Han army is menacing, and it is not easy to resist.”

The melancholy between Gongsun Zhan’s eyebrows could hardly be concealed.

Whether it can be blocked or not is related to the survival of everyone, and the fact that several cities have been lost in a row cannot be changed.

“How many troops does the Han army have?”

Gongsun Zan looked at Gongsun Fan.

At this time, you should also know the Han army’s request, otherwise the city in front will be lost in vain.

“It is estimated that 10,000 cavalry and 10,000 infantry, a total of 20,000 troops.”

Gongsun Fan answered truthfully.

“Are the cavalry dressed in black armor and wearing tiger-striped masks?”

Gongsun Zan asked in a trembling voice.

He recalled the scene when Bai Ma Yicong was hit hard.

“Yes.”

Gongsun Fan replied truthfully.

All the Wen Wu present were stunned for a moment.

The details of the battle in Youzhou, Gongsun Zan had already told Zhong Wenwu. So everyone understands that the black-armored cavalry of the Han army is powerful.

“It’s okay, we’re just sticking to it, and we don’t take the initiative to go out of the city to fight.”

Yan Gang said first.

“Yes, yes.”

Tian Kai echoed.

Gongsun Zan didn’t speak, he just smiled bitterly.

The Han cavalry they had a way to deal with, but the infantry of the Han army was just as strong in combat.

What methods should they use to resist it?

This defensive battle of Right North City is destined to be a tough battle. Whether it can be held or not, it is really not certain.

“Report, the Han army has arrived under the city!”

A soldier rushed in and shouted.

As soon as these words came out, everyone became nervous.

“Quickly dispatch the army to the head of the city to defend, and retract all the forces in other places.”

Gongsun Zan immediately began to deploy troops.

“By the way, bring all the available heavy objects in the city, as well as fierce fire oil.”

He made a point.

All this is in preparation for the death hold, the troops are retracting into the future, and they are concentrating on grain and grass and other food.

If you want to stay for a long time, it is still possible.

As long as the Han army does not break through for a long time, the rest of the princes will definitely move, and the Han army will probably retreat at that time.

This was the only hope in Gongsun Zhan’s heart.

“Boom…”

The military order was given, and the crowd immediately began to move.

Doing as the lord ordered, Gongsun Zan put on his armor and went straight to the head of Youbei City.

When he arrived at the head of the city, the defenders were ready to hold on. The military generals Gongsun Fan and Han Qi and others were deployed in different directions.

“Whew…”

Gongsun Zan took a deep breath and looked at the defenders.

I saw that each soldier’s expression was a little nervous, and even his body trembled. Seeing this, Gongsun Zan understood that morale was a little low.

“Cheer up, it’s not a problem to stick to the Right North City.”

Gongsun Zan shouted.

“No!”

The Right North Army got up and returned, and each of them raised their spirits. Morale has recovered, but not much better.

Before the Han army arrived, the remaining cities of Youbei County approached in the direction of Youbeicheng.

This was an opportunity for Gongsun Leopard in Liaodong to attack.

However, he was cautious in doing things, and still did not act rashly, choosing to watch this big battle.

When everything was ready, a thick fog appeared in the distance.

The pitch-black armor loomed in the thick fog, and the earth began to tremble, as if it was about to crack at any moment.

“Here it is.”

Gongsun Zan breathed heavily.

When he saw the cavalryman, he was even a little afraid.

Cao Cao led all the generals to the city and looked up at Gongsun Zan at the head of the city.

“Master Cao, what do you mean by this?”

The two armies confronted, and Gongsun Zan looked at Cao Cao and asked.

“Knowingly asking, not going to the new emperor’s enthronement ceremony is considered a traitor, what else do you have to quibble?”

Cao Cao sneered and asked coldly.

“This official missed the enthronement ceremony because of his physical illness, so he must also count me as a rebellion.”

Gongsun Zan asked rhetorically.

“Haha, Gongsun Zhan, your face is rosy and lively, where does you look like a serious illness?”

Cao Cao laughed.

“There is no need to delay time, today’s Right North City will definitely be broken!”

As soon as he changed his tone, his tone became a little colder.

“Attack!”

In the next second, Cao Cao directly ordered the siege of the city.

“Swish…”

The Han infantry pulled the strings with bows and shot countless rains of arrows.

“Defend!”

Seeing this, Gongsun Zan hurriedly ordered.

The city head shield soldiers are in position, otherwise they are hiding behind cover.

Dense arrows rained down on Youbei City.

“Dingding…”

I heard a crisp sound, and Mars burst out. When the rain of Han arrows stopped, Gongsun Zan immediately returned a tooth for a tooth.

After the rain of arrows, it was a frontal siege.

Cao Cao deliberately hid the tiger and leopard horses, and let the Xuanjia iron horses besiege the city and harass the enemy, while the infantry mainly attacked the western city gate.

From Gongsun Zhan’s perspective, the Han infantry was all at the West City Gate, and the Han cavalry was also scattered.

The strength of the eastern city gate is almost not much.

“This Cao Cao is too urgent.”

He squinted and muttered, as if he had found a way out. As everyone knows, this is a set given to him by Cao Cao.

Cao Cao’s military talent was not weak, and he knew that if Gongsun Zan learned that the Han army was attacking bravely, he would definitely be confused and choose to die.

But holding on is a variable, and no one knows how long they can see this, and whether there will be Han army reinforcements.

What’s more, the Youzhou side is looking at the tiger, and there is only one way to die.

Therefore, as long as Cao Cao showed flaws, Gongsun Zan would definitely choose to break through.

However, Gongsun Zan was not a fool, and he found this flaw and did not rush to decide.

Instead, while defending, he observed the situation of the Han army.

It was not until the end of the first wave of attacks that Gongsun Zan summoned everyone to come.

“Cao Cao has always been so powerful, he lost his mind due to consecutive victories, and even scattered his cavalry and there was a gap in the eastern city gate to break through.”

Gongsun Zan said bluntly.

Hearing this, Yan Gang, Tian Kai and the others all understood what this meant.

“If we really hold on to it, and the Han army can’t attack for a long time, we will definitely send the Youzhou army to come to support.”

Gongsun Zan continued.

Since he found a way to live, he simply said the real drawbacks of sticking to it.

“Guys, this prince has decided to attack tonight, can you agree?”

Gongsun Zan scanned everyone and asked.

Gongsun Fan and the others were stunned for a moment, according to what Lord Fang Cai said, they thought that they would break through the Han infantry with cavalry.

Unexpectedly, the lord planned to attack at night.

“Cao Cao certainly could not have imagined that our army would dare to break through the siege at night after the first wave of siege battles.”

The corners of Gongsun Zhan’s mouth raised slightly.

He felt that the success rate of night raids and breakthroughs was not ordinarily large.

“Lord, I’m afraid there is fraud, it is better to use a white horse to follow righteously, and break through from the west.”

Yan Gang persuaded.

“Where can you go to break through from the west, you can only be caught between the Youzhou army and the Han army.”

Gongsun Zan shook his head.

“Subordinates seconded!”

Seeing that the Lord said it powerfully, all the Wen Wu did not continue to hesitate and agreed one after another.

This is indeed a great opportunity, and if you miss it, you will only have a dead end.

“Assemble the army at midnight.”

Gongsun Zan ordered in a deep voice.

“No!”

Han Qi and Gongsun Fan and others took the order.

The literati Yan Gang and Tian Kai and others also changed into armor and prepared to break through with the lord.

And in order not to make the Han army suspicious, Gong

Sun Zan also maintained the number of defenders at the head of the city, paralyzing the enemy to the maximum.

As night fell, cooking smoke rose from the Han barracks.

Gongsun Zan also let everyone eat to replenish their physical strength. When midnight came, there was silence outside the right north city. Gongsun Zan gathered his soldiers and horses and quietly opened the eastern city gate.

At this time, I am afraid that the Han army has all rested, and the eastern city gate does not need to pay attention, saying that they can easily escape if they do not listen.

“Quick!”

Out of the city gate, Gongsun Zan shouted.

Everyone took the order and rushed to the east after the lord.

This east can be said to be Gongsun Zhan’s only chance of life, and he can go to Gongsun Leopard.

If you go to the west, as just said, you will fall into the encirclement of the two armies and throw yourself into the net.

To the south is Jizhou, and he has a grudge with Yuan Shao, which is equivalent to throwing himself into the net.

Only Gongsun Leopard, who is in Liaodong, may accept him.

“Boom…”

Gongsun Zhan’s thoughts were suddenly interrupted by the torches that appeared in front of him.

“Oops!”

He exclaimed.

“Alas, it’s still a hit!”

Tian Kai and Yan Gang were not surprised.

This way of life was deliberately revealed by Cao Cao, and the purpose was to lure them out. It’s only in the case of death that everyone wants to take the risk and try it.

“I will be waiting for you for a long time.”

Cao Cao’s voice sounded.

“I didn’t expect you to be really willing to take risks in order to survive.”

He said lightly.

“Kill it!”

Gongsun Zan shouted.

Even if there is an ambush here, once their forces are concentrated, there is a great possibility of breaking through.

Not to mention the existence of this white horse righteous follower in the army.

“Kill!”

Shouts of killing sounded.

The infantry of the Right Northern Army was in front, and Bai Ma Yi protected the two wings of the army, mainly responsible for riding and tearing through the enemy’s encirclement.

“Where is the tiger and leopard riding?”

Cao Cao gulped.

“In!”

Cao Chun replied.

“Kill Ben!”

Cao Cao gave military orders.

Cao Chun and more than a hundred tigers and leopards rode and launched an attack directly from the front.

“Huh?”

Gongsun Zan was stunned for a moment, and then ecstatic.

This Cao Cao was so arrogant that he actually used a hundred cavalry to block his army of more than 10,000?

However, when the tiger horse shook the leopard horse from the cross charge and showed terrifying lethality, Gongsun Zan was dumbfounded.

More than a hundred cavalrymen killed hundreds of his supplementary soldiers in a short time, and among them were dozens of white horse righteous followers.

“Boom…”

An even bigger roar sounded, and the Xuanjia Iron Rider appeared.

They went straight to the two wings of the white horse righteousness, showing the edge of the chopping knife.

Later, it was the regular army of the Han army, which completely blocked the retreat of the Right Northern Army.

“It’s over!”

Gongsun Zan exclaimed sadly.

Then I heard the screams that continued to sound, and the Right Northern Army poured into pools of blood in pieces like wheat harvested in autumn.

When the sky was dark, the Right Northern Army was either killed or headed.

The core figures of the Right Northern Army headed by Gongsun Zan were also captured by Cao Chun and Cao Ren.

“Change the banner of Youbei County, and immediately write a letter to Gongsun Bao, so that he can quickly return to the Han Dynasty.”

Cao Cao immediately ordered.

“No!”

Cao Chun took the order and immediately began to do as told.

Cao Ren was responsible for cleaning up the battlefield and escorting Gongsun Zan and others to Luoyang

At present, Gongsun Zan cannot be killed, and he needs to go to Luoyang to announce the punishment to the world.

After all, this is the first prince that His Majesty eliminated after the establishment of the new dynasty!
