Chapter 423: The Great Rout
"Lord, Yu Ban is fortunate not to disgrace his life! The enemy has now been routed, and the exact casualties are still being counted. ”
After leaving Gao Shun Zhou Cang and others to clean up the mess, Yu Ban came to Guo Jia as soon as possible and handed over the order flag.
"Well done!"
Guo Jia nodded with satisfaction.
Throughout this battle, Yu Ban responded calmly, commanded well, and the timing of the artillery attack was also very appropriate, and in one fell swoop eliminated the bow and crossbow arrow array, which was the most threatening to the official army.
Even if Guo Jia personally commanded it, it was nothing more than that.
"If you win this battle, Wen Ze should be the first to take the lead!"
Guo Jia praised.
Hehe!
Xu Shu on the side also smiled: "The three armies are easy to get, and it is difficult to find a general, and in this battle, Wen Ze's name will definitely be famous all over the world." ”
"The lord and the military advisor have praised it!"
Yu Ban hurriedly said: "This is all a soldier's life, how dare Yu Ban take credit?" ”
Deserve it!
Guo Jia smiled, stretched out his hand and patted Yu Ban's shoulder.
"From now on, Wen Ze will be the chief general of Yunzhou, and I can rest easy."
Lord!
Yu Ban burst into tears of excitement.
Death for a confidant!
Yunzhou military generals are like clouds, Dianguan Zhang Zhao, Xu Jaw Gaoliao, all of them are peerless fierce generals, compared to these people, Yu Ban's martial arts are nothing.
But he has always been valued by Guo Jia, and he has grown step by step from an ordinary general to a general in charge.
Now in Yunzhou, it can be regarded as one person below 10,000 people
All this is given by Guo Jia.
Please start with the text!
Guo Jia smiled and helped Yu Ban up.
"Lord!"
Gao Shun also strode in front of everyone.
"Our army lost 2,000 killed and wounded more than 3,000, the enemy killed about 10,000 people, nearly 8,000 corpses outside alone, and countless wounded. General Zhao and General Dian are catching up, and the specific situation has not yet been counted. ”
Two thousand dead?
Guo Jia felt a pain in his heart.
These 30,000 troops are all the elite of Yunzhou, and nearly 5,000 people have been lost in the two battles.
The war was indeed tragic.
"Have you ever captured the longbow and crossbow of the official army?"
Guo Jia is most concerned about this.
When the Shooting Battalion and the Changshui Battalion appeared before, Guo Jia was really shocked.
He never expected that the forbidden army would have such a sharp bow and crossbow.
If there is a field battle, most of the Yunzhou army will be caught off guard.
"There weren't many, they were basically destroyed by fire."
Gao Shun shook his head.
Pity!
Guo Jia was a little distressed.
This batch of longbow crossbows is probably already the most elite equipment of the imperial court.
Although the Yunzhou Army had gunpowder projectile technology, it was limited by the influence of production and weather, and could not be used around the clock.
Once it is a rainy day, it is still necessary to rely on primitive methods to fight.
Therefore, the assistance of the bow and crossbow is also essential.
Although there are many bows and crossbows in Yunzhou, their accuracy and lethality are too far worse than those of the imperial court's longbow crossbows.
If it can be equipped with the imperial court's longbow and crossbow, then Yunzhou's infantry crossbow will definitely be able to go to the next level.
"But we captured a lot of wounded from the Changshui and Shooting Battalions, and they were all injured and had no time to escape. Among them are also quite a few craftsmen who repair equipment. ”
Gao Shun brought good news.
The bow and crossbow are precision instruments and are easily damaged, so the two battalions of the Northern Army are always equipped with craftsmen in case of accidents.
These men also followed the army into battle, but they were usually placed in the last queue, so most of the two battalions ran out when they were wiped out.
What the?
Hearing this, Guo Jia jumped up excitedly.
Craftsmen who repair bows and crossbows are scarce talents. Especially the craftsmen who can repair the bows and crossbows of the two battalions of long water shots.
"Hurry up, let the military doctor go and heal, and they will definitely be cured."
Guo Jia shouted excitedly.
Promise!
Gao complied, turned and went down.
That's great!
Xu Shu high-fived and said: "As long as these people are brought back to Yunzhou, our Yunzhou army can also be equipped with the imperial court's longbow and strong crossbow." ”
As Guo Jia's right-hand man, he still understands the intentions of this lord.
It seems that this lord wants to keep anything good for himself.
Hehe!
Guo Jia laughed out loud with joy.
Originally, he was very dissatisfied with the bow and crossbow configuration of the Yunzhou Army, but because he was completely unfamiliar with the bow and crossbow, it was difficult to instruct the craftsman to make a more powerful bow and crossbow.
Now the capture of the craftsmen of the two battalions of the Northern Army has completely solved Guo Jia's worries.
Longbow and crossbow with artillery, who is still the opponent in the world?
……
"Taifu, Taifu, it's not good, Yuan Shao has been defeated, and the cavalry of the Yunzhou army has already chased after him."
Yuan Yu ran back in a panic.
"What?"
Yuan Kui, who was sitting in the rear, heard the news, his face suddenly changed, and his body suddenly shook a few times.
Uncle!
Yuan Yi on the side suddenly supported Yuan Kui.
Yuan Kui's face was also very ugly, as if he couldn't believe this result.
The 50,000 officers and troops still have the help of local troops, why haven't they fought the 30,000 Yunzhou army?
This time it's all over, and the Yuan family's century-old cause is also over.
Without this army, what would he Yuan Kui do to tilt the power of the government and the opposition?
Thinking that Yuan Shao, a bastard, had ruined his own big things one after another, Yuan Kui hated it so much.
"What about this rebel, what about others?"
"After the defeat, I didn't dare to come back to see you, so I led the army to Hanoi."
Yuan Yi said disdainfully.
He also has no good feelings for this cousin Yuan Shao.
Originally, he was a guy who didn't learn and didn't know how to do it, but he had a good skin, and he was deeply loved by Yuan Kui, the head of the Yuan family.
"Stupid, stupid, this is a mistake for my Yuan family!"
Yuan Kui said bitterly.
He was simply disappointed with what Yuan Shao had done.
If you lose big, you bring people back to stick to Jingshi. Guo Jia has few people, and he will definitely not attack Luoyang.
Are you a bird?
This stupid thing is infuriating!
Yuan Kui couldn't help but burst into foul language.
"Immediately order Chun Yuqiong Bao Hong to lead the rest of the army, retreat to Luoyang, and don't let Guo Jia in."
Yuan Kui immediately ordered the rear army to retreat to Luoyang.
Promise!
Yuan Yi didn't dare to do the majority, and immediately went out to pass the order.
Finished!
Yuan Kui sat on the ground.
This time, the Yuan family is completely finished.
What power is tilted towards the government and the opposition, what is the century-old plan, and whether the Yuan family can be preserved is still unknown?
What to do?
There are only two paths in front of Yuan Kui.
One is to withdraw to Runan's hometown and wait for an opportunity, and the other is to continue to stay in Beijing to endure humiliation.
Withdraw to Runan's hometown to insure some, where is the territory of the Yuan family, but in this way, the Yuan family completely lost the right to speak in the court and became a local tyrant.
But staying in Beijing is extremely dangerous, and it will be all destroyed if it is said to be good.
Will you continue to stay in Jingshi or withdraw to your hometown Runan?
Yuan Kui was a little overwhelmed.
To be sure, he didn't want to withdraw to Runan.
But the soldiers and horses in Yuan Shao's hands were buried, and the Yuan family had no confidence to speak in Beijing, and they would not be eaten by others.
To go well is to stay!
It is a problem that Yuan Kui urgently needs to solve.
Just when Yuan Kui was a little undecided, someone came to report, and Wang Yun asked to see him.
