Chapter 863: Gao Gan Liu Leopard was ambushed
War, there is no suspense here. Gao Gan originally thought that the defenders of Hanoi were only five or six thousand people, and with the Xiongnu and his 15,000 troops, he would definitely be able to make the other side look down on the wind.
Who knows, let alone fighting, but Kankan came to the side of Linshu County, and there was no way to push forward. In this siege of the 10,000 Huns, there were about 4,000 casualties, and only less than 6,000 remained. With the troops under his command, there are barely 10,000, but the morale has been lost, and it is not optimistic to continue fighting.
Besides, Xiliang Iron rode 2,000, Tiger and Leopard rode 2,000, and there were more than 3,000 defenders in the city, totaling 7,000. Although Lejin Li Dian's command was an infantryman, he also brought 5,000 over, adding up to 12,000.
Thinking of the elite of the Bai Yu soldiers, Gao Gan knew very well that it was estimated that they would suffer losses if they were hard hit. Especially after the opponent compresses the range of movement, the cavalry can't run, and the power is not as good as the infantry!
So he retreated, he could only retreat, not to mention Gao Gan, Liu Bao knew that only by quickly retreating to the northeast and opening up the distance could it be possible to continue to fight with him. As for the baggage, there is no life, what is the use of coming? It's really not good, on the way back to the state, it's enough to loot!
"Where to go?" Just as the large army was fleeing north, a cavalry came around from the rear and blocked their way, led by Huang Zhong.
"It seems that we are not late ......" beside him is the inscription that serves as the main book of the march, and is actually half of the supervising army. After a period of time in the northwest, although the person is still beautiful, there are also a few more suggestions. Sure enough, after having a 'family', people have become a lot more mature.
"Are these Huns planning to escape? I saw that they gave up all the baggage troops! "There is one more person in the team, and that is Ma Tie. Wen Ming is here, and of course he will come over.
Compared with leaving Xu Du before, he is now a little more stable, and his skin is darker. Seeing Wen Ming suffering in the army, he couldn't turn a blind eye. Even if he is not a returning species, he can lead his troops to fight, but in order to prove himself to these proud soldiers in the northwest, he has obviously put in a lot of effort.
All this is in Ma Teng's eyes, and he is really satisfied with his son's 'growth'. At the same time, because of Wen Ming's hard work and outstanding ability, he truly recognized the relationship between the two.
So the matter of the succession of the Ma family naturally fell on both Ma Xiu and Ma Chao...... By the way, a month ago, Ma Teng also wrote a letter to Ma Chao, asking her to find a satisfactory Lang Jun to marry in Xudu and give birth to ten or eight ...... Then Ma Chao, who received the letter, directly tore the letter to pieces in anger.
"It's not just right, the battle is ahead, don't miss it!" Huang Zhong smiled faintly, and pointed his long knife at the front, "The whole army obeys the order, charge with me!" ”
No one said that Huang Zhong had to be good at commanding archers, and no one said that he was not good at infantry and cavalry. It is true that he had never commanded a cavalry unit before, so during his time in the northwest, he tried to learn from Ma Teng.
Ma Teng admired this general who was already in his fifties, but still strong and intellectually curious, so he taught him everything, and during this time, Huang Zhong commanded the cavalry, which can be regarded as a good look. Besides, there is also the cooperation of horses and iron, and the five thousand cavalry are still within the range that he can control!
"King, there are also cavalry in our rear!" The commander below came to Liu Bao's report with trepidation
"I'm not blind! Break through, if you want to live, give me a lifeless breakthrough! Liu Bao could only grit his teeth at this moment and charge forward with a large army. As for whether Gao Gan is dead or alive, he can't care so much.
A day later, Liu Bao, covered in blood, and Gao Gan, who knelt on the ground and surrendered, were sent directly to Cao Ang.
"General Cao, earlier I mistakenly believed in Yuan Shao and committed a ......rebellion," Gao Gan didn't want to be killed, and hurriedly said flatteringly, "Now I have come to my senses and am willing to return to the state in person, take the land of a state, and return to the imperial court!" ”
On the side of Bingzhou, as long as they hold Huguan and then inspect the main roads, it will be extremely difficult for Yuan Shao's troops to enter. Taihang Mountain is a natural barrier, blocking and protecting the two places. However, in this world with unequal scales, there are still such a continuous mountain range, and it is also called the Taihang Mountain Range, in fact, Wang Yong still cares a lot.
"Hmph, it's a shame for me to be in the company of such a gutless rat like you!" Seeing this, Liu Bao directly reprimanded. Then he looked at Cao Ang and said stiffly, "If you want to kill or chop, listen to it!" ”
"Don't worry!" Cao Ang looked at Liu Bao, "Just burn and kill and plunder you after you entered Hanoi County, I didn't plan to let you live!" Come on, send the Hun Zuoxian King on the road! ”
"Hahaha...... Immortal Heaven is above, this revenge, we Huns will avenge it sooner or later! Liu Bao laughed.
"I will also find a chance to report the things that you Huns did to us Han in the past!" Cao Ang replied. Then he looked at Gao Gan, different from Liu Bao's toughness, this guy saw Liu Bao being executed, and the whole person trembled like something.
"As for your ......" Cao Ang thought about it, it is still very tempting to merge the state, but is it really suitable for going north at the moment? All the supplies are gathering towards Guandu, if you go north, how many supplies will be consumed? Besides, who knows if the senior cadres are in the state, and there are still more loyal troops.
"There's no need to stay...... Pull it down and behead it, then dispose of it and send it to your mother. Cao Ang waved his hand and decided the final fate of Gao Gan.
Merge the state, as long as Cao Cao's decisive battle is successful, then he can naturally wave his army to recover it. If you fail, you can't hold it. Now that there are so many high-yield crops, if military rations are not a problem, then it will not be a problem to lay down and merge states!
Especially this time, Wen Ming came over and brought 5,000 war horses, all during this time, to buy high-quality horses from the Qiang people, Xianbei and Wusun. This guy has a very powerful business mind, relying on the relationship between Ma Teng and the Qiang people to gain the favor of the Qiang tribe, and then use the relationship of the Qiang tribe to get in touch with Wusun, and then use the relationship of Wusun to get in touch with the Xianbei people.
In this way, they maneuvered in the three forces, and exchanged a lot of cattle, sheep and horses. At the same time, pastures were set up in various parts of Xiliang, not to mention the introduction of alfalfa, and a large number of green storage yards were started.
It can be said that vaguely, Wen Ming is about to become the largest animal husbandry industry overlord in Liangzhou! Even if it's the House of Things and the Chef's Guild, they have to buy through his connections!
"This time, I have to thank you!" Cao Ang naturally had to meet with the commanders of the two support armies, "Although it is a little rude, I still prepared a banquet, I hope you can appreciate your face...... After the army has been prepared for a day or two, a celebration banquet will be held at that time. ”
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say......" Huang Zhong and Le Jin stepped forward, and their attitudes were naturally very good, after all, it was Cao Cao's eldest son in front of him.
Six days later, an envoy from Hanoi County came to Guandu to report the victory, and sent the heads of Gao Gan and Liu Bao......
