Chapter 831: Yuan Tan breaks the North Sea
However, it backfired, although Li Fu had an army of 15,000, but with elite cavalry, Yuan Tan was invincible on the battlefield.
When the two armies fought, Yuan Tan directly took 3,000 cavalry as the first to break away from the camp of the Yellow Turban Army, and then led the infantry to cover the killing, killing the Yellow Turban Army with corpses all over the field, and there were many descendants.
When the news of Li Fu's defeat reached the army, Guan Hai was shaken, originally he didn't put Yuan Tan in his eyes, but just relied on Yuan Shao's aftermath.
Seeing that the military spirit was no longer available, Guan Hai had no choice but to gather his soldiers and horses and leave helplessly.
On the city wall, Tai Shici saw the Yellow Turban Army retreating like a tide, and breathed a sigh of relief, the Yellow Turban Army attacked the city one after another, not to mention ordinary soldiers, even he was a little unbearable, he had not walked down the city wall for half a month.
The defenders erupted in earth-shattering shouts, and the Yellow Turbans retreated, their homes defended.
Kong Rong held a banquet in the mansion that night to celebrate, and the banquet was staggered, so it was not lively.
The next day, Yuan Tan led the army to arrive, and the defenders of Xixian County fell into tension again, and after seeing that it was the banner of Yuan Tan of Qingzhou, many generals secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Tai Shi Ci rushed to the city when he heard the news, his face was a little gloomy, Yuan Tan came at such a time, it was definitely not as simple as rushing to help Beihai, the distance from the plain to Beihai was not far, if Yuan Tan had a heart, I am afraid he would have come a long time ago.
"Prime Minister of State, Yuan Tan is coming violently, I'm afraid it's not good." Sun Shao said.
Kong Rong snorted coldly: "Yuan Tan is the governor of Qingzhou, and this official is still the minister of Beihai, if Yuan Tan dares to attack Beihai, this official will definitely be a saint." ”
Sun Shao shook his head secretly, at this time, it is probably very difficult to use the imperial court to suppress Yuan Tan, what the imperial court is like, he knows better than anyone else.
"Kong Rong, the governor of Pontus led the army to break through the remnants of the Yellow Turban and relieve the crisis in Beihai, why don't you open the city gate and welcome the governor of Pontus into the city." Yuan Tan shouted.
Kong Rong arched his hand and said: "Yuan Dudu led the troops to help, and the official is grateful, but after the war in the city, there is chaos, if Yuan Dudu is stationed outside the city, how about the official order someone to go to reward the army?" Although Kong Rong was proud, he would not provoke Yuan Tan at such a time.
"Kong Rong Xiaoer, is it because you look down on the Governor of Pontus, the Governor of Pontus led his troops to come, but you refused to leave, what is the reason, do you think that the sons and daughters under the command of the Governor of Pontus are easy to bully?" Yuan Tan said angrily.
"Prime Minister of State, what Yuan Tan is planning, I'm afraid it's Beihai, be cautious." Tai Shi Ci said.
Kong Rong nodded slightly, how could he not see Yuan Tan's intentions, this is also the reason why Beihai is in danger, he has never asked for help, although the Yuan family has the name of the fourth and third princes, but Kong Rong is not eye-catching, and judging from Yuan Shao's performance, he is an ambitious person, and Cao Cao of Yanzhou is all the way.
"Yuan Tan, you came with your troops, and the official is very grateful, if you want to enter the city, you can't." Kong Rong flatly refused, and even changed his address to Yuan Tan.
"The soldiers of the three armies obey the order, Kong Rong Xiaoer does not obey the orders of the governor of Pontus, and he should be killed." Yuan Tan shouted.
"Kill, kill, kill......" The soldiers who had been arranged in advance heard Yuan Tan's shout, and their voices gradually converged in one place, resounding in the sky.
The defenders of the city were also intimidated by this momentum, and after a difficult battle, they thought they would settle down, but who knew that Yuan Tan led the troops to come.
Kong Rong's face was a little ugly, he didn't expect Yuan Tan to find such an excuse, at this time, the situation in the city no longer allowed him to think better, although Yuan Tan's soldiers and horses were only 20,000 people, but there were only more than 1,000 soldiers in the city, I am afraid that Yuan Tan would be defeated in a few days, Yuan Tan is not a remnant of the Yellow Turban, they have enough siege means.
A bed crossbow attached to the vehicle was pushed to a distance of one hundred and fifty paces from the city wall, and the soldier who operated the bed crossbow aimed the bed crossbow at the head of the city.
"Put!" Yuan Tan let out a loud shout, and fifty bed crossbows were fired together.
Crossbow bolts whistled in, and the defenders of the city even forgot to defend, they did not expect that at such a distance, the army outside the city would inflict damage on them.
"Prime Minister go quickly!" Tai Shi Ci let out a loud shout, standing in front of Kong Rong, staring at the outside of the city with blazing eyes, he didn't expect Yuan Tan to have a bed crossbow.
Although there were only fifty bed crossbows, they were enough for the defenders who had been resisting the Yellow Turban Army for more than half a month.
The armor on his body could not stop the power of the crossbow arrows, and a defender who was caught off guard was shot through.
Tai Shi Ci shouted angrily, and the twin halberds slashed towards a crossbow arrow, and couldn't stop taking a few steps back before he stabilized his body.
The crossbow arrows were fired continuously for a day, and the next day, Yuan Tan's army launched an attack on the county, at this time, there was no shortage of crossbow arrows on the city wall, and some dexterous soldiers could also stabilize their bodies with crossbow arrows after the defenders pushed down the ladder.
This is an unequal war.
For three days in a row, the defenders were not tenacious, and drove down the soldiers of Yuan Tan who attacked the city wall several times.
"The drama county can't hold it." Kong Rong sighed.
The civil officials and generals in the field were silent when they heard the words, the army led by Yuan Tan was too strong, making it difficult for them to make an effective response, especially the bed crossbow, which had made the defenders cold, at this time there were only more than 100 soldiers in the city who could fight, and many soldiers went into battle with injuries, with these people to hold the Beihai, it was already impossible.
"Run for your lives." After a long time, Kong Rong made up his mind.
"Swear to follow the prime minister." Cheng Su hurriedly came out of the ranks, Kong Rong is here, he Cheng Su is the chief general in the army, if Kong Rong is not there, he is nothing, the chief general of the Northern Navy, for Yuan Tan is nothing.
Kong Rong glanced at Cheng Su and said: "General Cheng ordered all the soldiers and horses, broke through with the official, and went to Jingzhou, but the official didn't believe that there was no reason." ”
"Prime Minister, the western city wall is broken by the enemy." A soldier staggered in and shouted.
"Prime Minister, without further ado, go quickly." Cheng Sudao.
Kong Rong hurriedly said: "General Cheng ordered someone to bring the official's family with him." ”
As soon as the words fell, another soldier ran in, "Prime Minister, the south gate has been broken by the enemy." ”
"Prime Minister, go." Cheng Su glanced at the soldiers on the side and took Kong Rong away, as for Kong Rong's family, now they can't even save their lives, how can they take care of their families.
Tai Shici, who was struggling to support himself at the north gate, got the news that Yuan Tan's army had entered the city, sighed, left with Yang Feng, and headed in the direction of Jizhou, as long as he passed through Jizhou, he could reach Bingzhou.
With a double halberd and a gun, the enemy troops who were blocking outside the city saw that they regressed.
After the drama county was breached, Yuan Tan listened to Xin Ping's suggestion to Zhang Bang Anmin, and the rest of the counties looked down on the wind, so far, except for Donglai, Qingzhou is all in the hands of Yuan Tan.
