Chapter 733: Breaking the Village

Not far from the Yuan army's camp, the state army also camped here, and completely blocked the front road of the Yuan army.

Although Yuan Jun occupies a geographical advantage and can easily hold the main transportation routes, it is also easy to be cut off from the back road.

In the military camp of Bingzhou, the flags covered the sky and the sun, the sound of war drums rumbled, and the shouts of soldiers broke through the sky.

All of this shows the extremely high morale of the state.

In the commander's tent, an adjutant general said with a worried look on his face: "The thief army is guarding the throat of the northbound traffic, so why didn't Jun take advantage of General Xu to lead away Gao Lan to storm the camp, but instead give Yuan Jun a three-day respite?" ”

"Do you think that the thief will really surrender?"

What this general is saying now is also the voice of many generals of Bingzhou, although the Bingzhou army bluffed, waved the banner of 30,000 soldiers and horses, and concealed the Yuan army.

However, since the generals of the Yuan army guarding the village can be valued by Gao Ran, they will naturally not be that kind of soft bones, and they will definitely not surrender without experiencing the war.

In this way, Chen Gong's so-called giving the other party three days is a complete waste of fighters.

As soon as the adjutant general's voice fell, the other generals of the state also echoed each other, raising the same doubts.

Chen Gong sat on the main seat, with a calm and unhurried look on his face, he stroked his long beard and quietly listened to the words of the generals.

After everyone gradually calmed down, Chen Gong said slowly: "Do you really think that I want to persuade the generals of the Yuan army to surrender?" ”

The generals of Bingzhou were all stunned when they heard this, and one of them said: "The envoy gave Yuan Jun three days to think about it, isn't it to persuade the enemy generals to surrender?" ”

Chen Gong smiled slightly and said, "The Yuan army camp is very strong, and it is absolutely very difficult to conquer it in a hurry, even if we sacrifice to capture this camp, our army will also suffer heavy casualties." ”

"Now that the garrison of Bingzhou is small, we can't afford to experience big losses at all, so we not only want to capture this camp this time, but also try to preserve our own strength."

The generals asked puzzledly: "Although the words of the envoy are reasonable, if you don't storm the camp, how can you defeat Yuan's army and open the road to the north?" ”

The battle between the two armies is definitely not child's play, and it is very unrealistic to easily defeat the enemy army, and it is inevitable to shed blood and sacrifice when attacking such a strong camp.

Now that Yanmen County is in danger, every time Chen Palace is delayed for a while, the possibility of Yanmen County being conquered will be greater.

A delay of three days in such a situation would not have been a wise move in the eyes of the generals.

Chen Gong seemed to see through the thoughts of the generals, and said: "Breaking through the Yuan army camp is just around the corner, you just have to wait and see!" ”

The generals of Bingzhou suddenly heard Chen Gong's words, and they were all very unbelieving, Mo said that the Bingzhou army now only has 10,000 soldiers and horses, even if there are 20,000 more, it is impossible to conquer Yuan's army camp in an instant.

The generals wanted to persuade again, but Chen Gong didn't say anything, just insisted on his own opinion.

Seeing this, the generals immediately sneered, secretly thinking that Chen Gong was really just a scribe, and he was not proficient in leading troops to fight, otherwise he would definitely not boast about Haikou like this.

For the generals of the state, maybe Chen Gong is a good state pastor, but he is not necessarily a good general.

Just like Liu Yu at the beginning of Youzhou, after his governance, the people of Youzhou, which was originally desolate and remote, lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the army and the people lived in harmony.

However, Liu Yu led 100,000 soldiers and horses, but was defeated by Gongsun Chan in a hurry with hundreds of people, which can be described as a bloody fact.

Although Chen Gong governed the annexed states in an orderly manner, in the final analysis, he had not led the army to fight, and it was understandable that his prestige in the army was insufficient.

But after all, Chen Gong is the pastor of the state, and he is the father of his own lord Chen Xu, although the generals have some ideas in their hearts, they don't dare to persecute too much.

Whether Chen Gong boasted of Haikou or not, it will be clear tomorrow, if they can't capture Yuan's army camp, it will not be too late for them to admonish again.

Anyway, I've been waiting for three days, and it's not bad for this day.

However, it was said that although the generals of the Yuan army were afraid of the soldiers of the Zhou army, they had no intention of surrendering, and on the afternoon of the third day, they repeatedly encouraged the soldiers and sent people to strengthen the camp with wood.

Now in the Yuan army camp, there are horses and antlers everywhere, and the fences surrounding the camp are also layer after layer.

Not only that, but the Yuan army also built a dense arrow tower at the front of the camp, and as long as the army of the state army approached, it would be shot into a hedgehog.

Most of the camps used in ancient marches and wars were built with a lot of wood, and after repeated reinforcements by the Yuan army, even if the camps were only built of wood, they could be regarded as impregnable.

The generals of the Yuan army patrolled around with some cronies, and after seeing the almost impregnable camp, they often breathed a sigh of relief.

"Even if the state army pours out 30,000 soldiers and horses to attack, they must be bled to death!"

It was only at this time that the generals of the Yuan army guarding the village had some confidence in their hearts.

"Oh oh oh!"

At this moment, General Yuan suddenly heard bursts of cheers in a vague way, and couldn't help but ask the soldiers beside him, "What happened?" ”

The soldiers also looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.

One of the people with better ear skills moved his ears and said, "These cheers seem to have come from the side of the military camp in Bingzhou. ”

Hearing this, General Yuan scolded: "Who else can it be besides them, I want to know what is going on, and the state army will cheer like this." ”

The reprimanded cronies turned red and did not dare to speak again.

General Yuan was a little hesitant in his heart, so he sent scouts to reconnoiter the enemy's situation, although he knew that whenever the scouts of the Yuan army sent out had not yet approached the military camp of Bingzhou, they would be hunted.

But today, he can't care about anything else.

If he didn't find out what was going on, he would never be able to sleep.

It didn't take long for two of the dozens of scouts sent out by General Yuan to escape, and they were also covered in blood.

Yuan Jiang was shocked when he saw this, and asked, "What about the others?" ”

A Yuan army scout said weakly: "They are all dead. ”

General Yuan was even more shocked in his heart, and continued to ask: "What happened, and why did the state army cheer so much?" ”

Another scout replied with a look of fear on his face: "Zhao Yun has already killed General Gao Ran and joined forces with Chen Gong!" ”

"How is this possible!"

General Yuan couldn't believe that Gao Lan, a famous general in Hebei, would be killed by Zhao Yun so easily.

The scout swore and said, "I saw Zhao Yun with a white horse and a silver spear, holding the head of General Gao Ran with a spear in his hand, and all the troops below were waving their weapons and cheering loudly. ”

"Bang dang!"

Hearing this, Yuan dropped the weapon in his hand to the ground, and kept muttering: "How is it possible?" How can it be? ”

If Gao Ran has been killed, and Zhao Yun and Chen Gong have joined forces again, then the camp he is holding on to has become a turtle in the urn, and it is only a matter of time before the camp is defeated.

It is a battle, a surrender, and a retreat, these three roads have been placed in front of General Yuan.

"Fake, it must be fake."

Suddenly, Yuan Jiang remembered that it had only been a few days, and no matter how powerful Zhao Yun was, it was absolutely impossible to kill Gao Ran easily.

He kept comforting himself like this in his heart, but he already somewhat believed in the fact that Gao Ran was killed.

After all, it was Yuan Jun who personally sent him a letter, saying that Gao Ran was seriously injured by Zhao Yun's two moves.

Since Zhao Yun was so violent, he defeated Yuan's army in just a few days, and it was not so shocking to kill Gao Lan.

However, this person was unwilling to retreat like this, let alone surrender and join the state army, so he kept hypnotizing himself in his heart, hoping that he could regain his confidence.

"It is expected that the state army will not be able to easily conquer the camp, wait a few days, if it is really Zhao Yun in person, it will not be too late to retreat!"

Holding back his fear, Yuan Jiang already had a plan in his heart.

Then he sent an order down to the soldiers to rest well tonight and recharge their energy for the bitter battle that was to come.

However, it didn't take long for the 15,000 Yuan army to be defeated, and the news of the killing of the commander Gao Lan had spread throughout the Yuan army camp.

Many of the soldiers who heard the news were all terrified, and they were all thinking about escaping, and none of them had the slightest desire to fight.

It was night, the sky was extremely overcast, and there was no moon or stars in the sky.

Just when Yuan Jun fell asleep in a state of anxiety, suddenly fireballs fell from the sky, quickly igniting the wood in the camp, and the raging flames rose into the sky.

Yuan Jiang woke up from his sleep and shouted in a panic: "What happened, what happened?" ”

"Boom!"

A black crockpot fell from the sky and smashed into Yuan Jiang's side not far away, and he immediately smelled a pungent smell of oil.

It wasn't long before another fireball slammed in, quickly igniting the oil that was scattered on the ground.

The wind fueled the fire, and the more it burned, the more intense it became, and Yuan was choked by the smoke and coughed.

At this time, the Yuan army camp was already in chaos, and the Yuan soldiers who heard that the commander had died in battle during the day had long lost the slightest sense of war.

Suddenly attacked tonight, countless Yuan troops ignored the cries of the generals and fled in panic.

The fires continued, and the wood, which had been used to defend against the armoury of the states, became the fuel for the fire.

The generals of the Yuan army guarding the village are now also reaping the consequences.

"Kill!"

A group of men and horses came from a distance, and under the light of the fire, the first general could vaguely see the white horse and silver spear, and the heroic and extraordinary posture.

The general of the Yuan army guarding the village saw the figure holding the silver spear in the front, saw the majestic Bingzhou army, and looked at the Yuan soldiers who had already scattered and fled, and couldn't help but look gloomy.

"Today's defeat is decided, as the commander of one side, how can I survive in secret?"

Speaking of this, he put the sword in his hand on his neck and said softly: "General Gao, I will accompany you in the future." ”

"Poof!"

The splash of blood also means that the entire Yuan army camp has completely lost its last support.
