The arrival of the trapped camp completely changed the situation on the battlefield, and this time in order to make a long-distance attack on Hangu Pass, Cao Chun only led two thousand tigers and leopards to ride forward.

Without the support of the follow-up troops, if they continue to fight to the death with the trapped camp in the city, I am afraid that the most elite troops under Cao Cao will lose this place.

Guo Jia is just a strategist, he can calculate the world, but he can't change the situation of a hard-fought battle.

If you can afford to let it go, it will be a big thing, and Guo Jia finally began to withdraw his troops without hesitation.

Although the tiger and leopard cavalry felt very humiliated by this fiasco, the military order was like a mountain, and they could only abandon Hangu Pass and start retreating.

The trapped camp did not let their guard down because of the retreat of the tiger and leopard cavalry, but waited in place.

Chen Qing led the Jiguan defenders to force forward and recapture the city gate, until the city gate was slowly closed, and the trapped camp dispersed the formation.

At this time, many soldiers in the trapping camp who were holding shields to resist the impact of war horses were quickly sent to the medical workers for treatment.

In the face of the powerful impact of the tiger and leopard cavalry, even the elite like a trapped camp could not be unscathed, at least these shield-wielding people were all injured to varying degrees.

The most serious person has a double wall fracture, and even after healing, there is no way to continue to stay in the trapped camp.

"I've seen the general!"

After the situation in Hangu Pass stabilized a little, the kitten and Guo Huai came to greet Chen Qing, but Chen Qing did not despise these two Guanzhong generals who were quite face-to-face, and hurriedly returned the salute.

As for the commander of the 500 camp, he was still silent, just silently watching over the wounded.

……

Hanoi County was really empty, and when Cao Cao gave up attacking Kei Pass, and then sent troops to occupy the entire territory of Hanoi County, the army was like a bamboo.

At this time, Cao Cao actually still had a trace of fantasy in his heart.

If Guo Jia's attack on Hangu Pass was successful, Cao Cao could completely bypass Kei Pass and enter Guanzhong directly from Hangu Pass. At that time, Cao Cao's army could go straight to Pusaka, and welcoming back the Son of Heaven would be just around the corner.

Looking at the good news on the case, Cao Cao sketched a smile on his face: "Hanoi County is easily pacified, and the next target is set in Yin, Henan." ”

At this moment, a rush of footsteps came, but Xun You walked in with a letter.

"My lord."

After seeing the salute, Xun You hurriedly said: "The tiger and leopard cavalry failed to attack Hangu Pass, and the two thousand tiger and leopard cavalry attacked the phalanx of the 500 trapped camp head-on, and actually lost more than 300 people, but they could not shake the formation of the trapped camp. ”

"In addition, I have fought with the defenders of Hangu Pass before, and the casualties of the tiger and leopard cavalry in the first battle are nearly 500."

"Quack!"

Hearing Xun Yu's words, Cao Cao actually folded the pen in his hand into two sections, and his face was a little gloomy.

After receiving the letter in Xun You's hand, Cao Cao murmured in a low voice after learning what had happened: "Trapped in the camp, trapped in the camp again." ”

The battle of Keiguan changed the entire battle situation because of the arrival of the trapped camp, and when Hangu Pass was within reach, it was the trapped camp to turn the tide.

The most important thing is that the tiger and leopard rider, who is very valued by Cao Cao, is vulnerable in front of the trapped camp, which can't help but make it difficult for Cao Cao to calm down.

However, Cao Cao was not very human after all, and after the shock, he slowly adjusted his mood, and then laughed loudly: "The defeat of the tiger and leopard cavalry in this battle will definitely restrain the temperament of no one in their eyes, which will be of great benefit to their future growth." ”

"It's just that Chen Wenzhao's camp is really unparalleled in the world."

After sighing, Cao Cao carefully read the contents of another letter, which was another letter written by Guo Jia.

The letter wrote: Hangu Pass has a trapped camp and Guanzhong reinforcements are stationed, and it is impregnable, and it will never be able to conquer unless the army presses the border. If the lord can conquer Keiguan, when the long drive straight to Pusaka, don't hesitate at all.

If something is not done, there is no need to capture Hanoi County, but only need to loot the materials and people in Hanoi County and Henan Yin.

Guo Jia believes that according to what he has seen and heard today, Chen Wenzhao has taken precautions in advance for the princes' attack on Guanzhong. Under such circumstances, it will be extremely difficult for the princes to attack Guanzhong.

Although the two eastern counties of Sili are very important in a political sense, most of the population has already been moved away by Chen Xu, and even if they occupy these two counties, it will not be of much benefit to Cao Cao.

If Cao Cao really occupies these two county towns, it will not only lengthen the defensive front of Cao Cao's territory, but also after Chen Xu returns to Guanzhong, Cao Cao will be Chen Xu's primary target.

Therefore, no matter in which way, occupying these two incomparably empty county towns is not beneficial to Cao Cao.

On the contrary, although these two counties are a little empty, as long as the materials and people in the territory are looted, Cao Cao will also get a lot of benefits, and it will not be in vain to send troops this time.

"The battle has just begun, is it about to end?"

Cao Cao felt a little blocked in his heart at this time, he hibernated for a long time and tried his best to attack Guanzhong, but he could only conquer the two abandoned counties, which was quite a huge blow to Cao Cao.

However, Guo Jia's words are very reasonable, as time goes by, the weather will become colder and colder, and fighting at this time is not a good strategy.

What's more, the war potential of Guanzhong has begun to slowly be revealed, and in the past half a month, Jiguan has added 2,000 newly recruited soldiers and horses.

It is speculated that there will be more and more defenders on the side of Hangu Pass.

Cao Cao's initial strategy has now almost completely failed.

Just when he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, Liu Ye and Man Chong ran in one after another, bringing him the war between Wuguan and Bingzhou.

"Jingzhou Commander Wen Ping died in battle, Liu Bei led the rest of the Jingzhou army to retreat, and Wuguan stood tall."

"Yuan Benchu's troops attacked Bingzhou in three ways, and Yan Liang's men and horses were blocked by Wang Yan from the party, and it was difficult to advance an inch; The middle lane Gao Ran was defeated, and the casualties were less than half; The 70,000 Yuan troops on the North Road were blocked by Zhang Liao outside Yanmen County. ”

Cao Cao was suddenly shocked when he heard this, and then sighed: "It's really like what Feng Xiao said, Chen Wenzhao is indeed on guard. ”

Things have developed to such an extent that Cao Cao has already made a decision in his heart, and ordered Cao's army to attack everywhere, plundering the people and looting supplies.

For a time, Hanoi County and Henan Yin were full of wolf smoke, the people were displaced, and the sound of wailing did not resound through the world.

……

And the state, Shangdang County, Huguan City.

"Damn!"

Yan Liang looked at the white figure standing with a sword on the city wall, his face became very gloomy, and he even gritted his teeth a little.

Although the Yuan army was only to contain the Shangdang army along the way, the arrogant Yan Liang also wanted to make contributions in this battle, so he insisted on storming Huguan despite the opposition of the trial.

But in the face of Wang Yan's impeccable defense, no matter how Yan Liang attacked, he was blocked.

Even, because Huguan was too steep, Yan Liang led the army to suffer heavy casualties in the process of attacking the city.

Later, the trial finally couldn't sit still, and kept designing to help Yan Liang overcome the pot pass.

However, Wang Yan is like a rock for ten thousand years, let you wind and rain beat me and stand still, while guarding the Huguan, he greatly killed and injured Yuan Jun.

Shangdang originally had 10,000 horses, and Yan Liang attacked Shangdang with 20,000 Yuan troops, and there was no way to put any pressure on Wang Yan.

After a period of siege, the Yuan army that came to attack the city did not even occupy an advantage in numbers.

The judge's face was extremely gloomy, and finally regardless of his celebrity demeanor, he actually roared loudly at Yan Liang: "In such a dangerous place as Huguan, there are nearly 10,000 defenders in the city, do you want to use these soldiers and horses in your hands to conquer this pass?" ”

"You have led 20,000 troops, and by now you have lost 5,000 or 6,000 men, and have you achieved the slightest success?"

The judge's face turned red, he was really confused by Yan Liang, a reckless man who was stubborn and self-serving, but Yan Liang was the coach, if he was bent on attacking Huguan, there was nothing he could do about it.

But this time, Yan Liang was not as stubborn as usual, but hung down his arrogant head.

His hoarse voice said, "It's me who is too eager for quick success." ”

Shocked by Yan Liang's sudden change, he couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "It's not too late for the general to repent now. ”

Yan Liang nodded and said, "According to Zhengnan's words, in the future, Huguan will only be besieged and not attacked." ”

"Woooooo

The low sound of gold resounded through the heavens and the earth, Wang Yan looked at the slowly retreating Yuan Jun, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a beautiful arc.

"It's time!"

After the murmuring, Wang Yan suddenly raised the sword in his hand and shouted: "Beat the drum, open the city gate, and fight to the death with the Yuan army!" ”

Wang Yan, who had been silent for a long time and never dared to go out of the city like a turtle, was uncharacteristically ready to fight to the death with Yuan Jun at this time.

It's not that Wang Yan is reckless, he is actually already in his chest.

Although the strength of the Yuan army was twice that of the Huguan garrison at the beginning, after such a long period of attrition, the Huguan garrison relied on the advantage of the city and greatly killed and injured the Yuan army.

The Yuan army repeatedly attacked the city, and its morale was already very low, coupled with heavy casualties, it was even more warless at this time.

On the contrary, the morale of the defenders of the city was high after this period of precipitation. Under the advantages of this situation, Wang Yan was confident that he would be able to defeat the Yuan army head-on.

"Knock knock!"

The sound of war drums, which symbolizes the attack, and the sound of gold echo each other, resounding throughout the land.

When the gate of Huguan was wide open and Wang Yan led his troops to rush out, everyone was shocked.

"Kill!"

Sophisticated equipment, high morale, and indomitable determination all bode well for a glorious victory to come.

"Quick, General Yan quickly went to break the rear, if Wang Yan led the troops into the battle, he would definitely be defeated!"

Yan Liang also knew that the matter was urgent, so he hurriedly gathered his own soldiers and ran to the back.

At this time, the retreating Yuan army was already in a panic, running forward in a panic, and even blocked Yan Liang's progress for a while.

"Kill!"

Before Yan Liang led the troops to the back, Wang Yan had already led the crowd to kill, and the Yuan army behind was even more defeated.

"The general trend is gone!"

Yan Liang, who was constantly impacted by the rout, and couldn't even go to the broken back, closed his eyes in pain when he saw this.

In the final analysis, Wang Yan's turtle tactics during this period of time were too confusing, and even the trial did not expect Wang Yan to dare to go out of the city to fight.

Therefore, when Yuan's army retreated, it did not take too much precautions.

One side retreats, the other pursues; One side is demoralized, and the other side is like a rainbow. With the trade-offs of the other, this is a battle with no suspense at all.

The fighting continued until it was dark, and the shouts of killing were still heard.

Wang Yan led his troops to chase and kill for more than 30 miles, killed five generals of the Yuan army, killed more than 2,000 enemies, captured countless Yuan troops, and Yan Liang and the trial and match fled in a hurry.

When Wang Yan returned to Huguan with countless trophies and the attitude of a victor, the cheers in the city shook the heavens and the earth.

At this point, the battle situation in the southern part of the state has been decided.

……

Yanmen County, under the city of Yinguan, the corpses are full of wilderness.

Before Xu Xian led the troops, Zhang Liao was still quite difficult to defend the city, no matter how big or small, he had to do it himself, and Zhang Liao himself rarely had the opportunity to rest every day.

Xu Xian's arrival not only made the Yin Pavilion have 5,000 more soldiers guarding the city, but the talented Xu Xian also became Zhang Liao's right-hand man, helping him handle various military affairs in an orderly manner.

Not long after the reinforcements arrived in the Yin Pavilion, Zhang Yang and Hu Chuquan also led 5,000 Hun cavalry guarding the north to help.

Zhang Liao and Zhang Yang, who had been serving under Ding Yuan's account before, had a very good relationship with each other, and after he got Chen Gong's order, he didn't dare to slack off, so he rushed to the Yin Pavilion at night.

At this time, 10,000 soldiers and horses had gathered in the Yin Pavilion, even if Yuan Shao had more than 60,000 soldiers, but there was nothing he could do about the Yin Pavilion.

After a period of tragic offensive and defensive battles, the weather finally became colder and colder, and seeing that winter was approaching, the morale of Yuan's army became much lower.

"The general trend is gone!"

Frustrated, dressed in military uniform, staring at the Yin Pavilion that was dilapidated but still standing, he couldn't help but let out a sigh.

"If the army of Gaolan Road is not recognized, it is a suspicious soldier, if there is no 5,000 Hun cavalry to help, maybe Yanmen County has been captured by the lord now."

However, in this world, there are not so many ifs.

Bingzhou is the place where Chen Xu started, and he naturally will not give it up easily.

Chen Xu had been prepared for a possible battle situation in the north a long time ago, and if it weren't for Yuan Shao's surprise attack on Yanmen County, he would not have the slightest hope of victory.

The few people stationed in Bingzhou were not general, and even if Yuan Shao tried his best, he failed to occupy a great advantage.

It's not that Yuan Shao is too weak, but Chen Xu is too strong.

On the chariot, Yuan Shao, who was in golden armor, showed a tired look on his face, and the pressure he was under during this time was also very huge.

The morale of the army, the logistics and the food and grass all made him physically and mentally exhausted.

"Lord, lord!"

At this moment, a panicked shout came from a distance.

I saw Guo Tu holding two letters and shouting: "General Yan Liang was defeated by Wang Yan in Shangdang County, and the army of the South Road was also defeated!" ”

Yuan Shao couldn't help but scold when he heard this: "First Gao Ran was defeated by Chen Gong, and then Yan Liangbing was defeated by the party, waste, all waste!" ”

Speaking of this, Yuan Shao felt his blood surging upward, and suddenly his eyes went black and fainted.
