On the north bank of the Yellow River, although Yuan Tan had 100,000 soldiers, he was still in panic every day. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's just that the Guanzhong Army, which was originally in full swing because of the capture of Yanzhou, has died down at this time.

Inside the Yuan army's camp, Yuan Tan had a tired look on his face, and in the face of the powerful soldiers of the Guanzhong army, he felt that the burden on his shoulders was very heavy.

"Ziyuan, Chen Wenzhao didn't send people to cross the Yellow River during this time, and he didn't come to call for battle, what are you doing?"

Xu Yu is nearly seventy years old, even his beard is a little white, and the wrinkles on his face are getting more and more.

And during this time, as the main strategist under Yuan Tan, the safety of the entire Jizhou was handed over to him, and the pressure was also very huge.

As for Fu Zhu, he was not on the north bank of the Yellow River at this time, and was sent by Yuan Tan to defend against the sick Chen Palace, and the general Zhang He was also sent to defend against Zhang Liao.

Although over the years, Yuan Tan has also recruited many talents, but since Yuan Shao's death, Yuan's prestige has been declining.

Many talented people can also see that Yuan Tan is not a hero, and they are unwilling to be a leader in Jizhou.

Therefore, apart from the team left by Yuan Shao, there are not many available people under Yuan Tan's command.

But the old department left by Yuan Shao is also dead to this day, the old is old, and the retired is retreating, so that the entire Jizhou has fallen into a situation of lack of talents.

Xu You frowned and said: "The soldiers are fast, Chen Wenzhao will not know this truth, he stationed troops in Puyang but did not have the slightest idea of crossing the river, and there must be demons when things go wrong." ”

During this time, Xu You's health was getting worse and worse, and he came to the side of the map, and his eyes kept patrolling the map.

After watching it for a long time, Xu You was suddenly shocked and shouted: "If Chen Wenzhao sends a large army, he will delay us here." ”

"He sent light cavalry from Hedong County to Wei County, and then came to raid the rear of Wei County, but what should he do?"

Yuan Tan hurriedly came to the side of the map, and after looking at it for a while, his face also changed slightly.

Yuan Tan was also quite proficient in military affairs, and Wei County in Jizhou was adjacent to Hedong County in Guanzhong, and there was no Yellow River to stop it except for a Taihang Mountain.

Although Xu You's idea is just speculation, it is very likely to happen.

At first, Chen Xuxing's army attacked Yanzhou, attracting almost all of Yuan Tan's attention, causing him to somewhat ignore the threat from Hedong County.

Now after Xu You's mention, the more Yuan Tan thought about it, the more frightened he felt.

At this time, he said: "There is the Taihang Mountain Range to the west of Wei County, as long as a few soldiers are sent to guard the main road, even if the thief army has 100,000 cavalry, I am afraid it will not be able to enter Wei County at all." ”

Yuan Tan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and after thinking about it for a while, he felt that there was some truth, and he immediately hesitated.

In the final analysis, Yuan Tan's personality is very similar to Yuan Shao, both are a little indecisive, sometimes listening to the wind is rain, as long as his subordinates have different opinions, they are a little unable to hold their minds.

Xu You said: "Even if the cavalry can't cross the Taihang Mountain Range, the foot soldiers may come over the mountains and mountains, so they have to guard against it." ”

The judge shook his head again and said: "Ziyuan's words are wrong, the Taihang Mountain Range is so steep, except for those local hunters, who can cross our army's checkpoint and trek through mountains and rivers into Wei County?" ”

"The reason why Chen Wenzhao has been standing still is that there must be an insider."

At this moment, a personal soldier suddenly walked in, knelt down on one knee and said: "Lord Qiqi, after a period of reconnaissance, the scouts finally know why the Guanzhong army has been standing still. ”

When Yuan Tan heard this, he hurriedly asked, "What is the reason?" ”

The soldier replied: "Wei Wei Cheng Yu died of illness, and the King of Qin learned of this news with a surge of qi and blood, causing the old injury to recur and pass out, and he has been in poor health since he woke up. ”

"King Qin fell ill, and the soldiers in Guanzhong were panicked, so they kept garrisoning Puyang without any follow-up action."

With the Yellow River blocking the Yellow River and the large armies on both sides blocking communications, it was very difficult to detect the enemy.

This is also why, Chen Xu has been ill for a long time, and Yuan Tan didn't learn the news until today.

Yuan Tan was overjoyed when he heard this, and said: "God really helps me, now that Chen Wenzhao is ill, the Guanzhong army is panicking, if he crosses the river by surprise now, he will definitely be able to kill the Guanzhong army and leave." ”

Xu Yu and the judge were all shocked when they heard this, and hurriedly persuaded: "The lord can't!" ”

The two glanced at each other, and after all, Xu You explained: "Although Chen Wenzhao is ill, the generals in Guanzhong are all brave and good at fighting, and Tian Yuanhao and Sima Zhongda are there. ”

"The Guanzhong army is strong, but most of our soldiers are new recruits, and their combat effectiveness is underground."

"Now that we occupy the north bank of the Yellow River, we still have some spare strength to defend against danger, and if we rashly cross the river and confront the Guanzhong army, we will definitely lose."

Yuan Tan was unhappy when he heard this, but he didn't say anything to refute it.

The judge also persuaded: "In fact, the lord only needs to hold on to the north bank of the Yellow River, and Chen Wenzhao will send a large army to attack, and he will consume countless money and food every day. ”

"As long as we hold the north bank of the Yellow River for a period of time, the Guanzhong army will definitely collapse without a fight due to lack of food, and it will not be too late for me to cross the river to chase and kill at that time."

Seeing that the two respected old strategists were all saying this, Yuan Tan had no choice but to act according to the plan.

In the Taihang Mountains, a group of people and horses are painted with colorful faces, walking in the deep mountains and old forests, all of them are like flying.

"Whew!"

A wolf howl sounded, and the man immediately couldn't help but howl and galloped away in the direction of the wolf howl.

The thorny mountains and forests seemed to have no way to stop them, and these people were like darlings in the mountains and forests, running and jumping, so happy.

"Whew!"

"Whew!"

"Whew!"

The sound of wolf howls came and went, but it was not as confident as it was at the beginning, but it seemed a little frightened.

It didn't take long for the wolf howls to cease completely, and the men with their faces painted all over the place, carrying a wolf corpse.

Among these people was a big man, but he seemed to have some difficulty walking.

Another man with an extremely strong figure holding an iron thistle bone in his hand, two bows on his belt, and an extremely strong figure said with a smile: "The sons have hit another batch of prey, and it is enough to work hard for a while." ”

Looking at the leader of the Wuxi Barbarians in front of him, Dahan couldn't help but admire: "Wudang Feijun is really the darling of the mountains and forests, along the way, my Pang De is really eye-opening." ”

The big man who spoke was Pound, and the leader of the Wuxi Barbarians was Shamoke.

After Chen Xu heard the news of Cheng Yu's death, he also fell ill.

However, Chen Xu never forgot to attack Jizhou, and Sima Yi took the opportunity to offer a plan to let the Wudang Fei army cross the Taihang Mountain and directly enter Wei County.

Maybe it is impossible for ordinary soldiers to cross the Taihang Mountains, but Sima Yi has been in Youzhou for so long, and he knows a lot about this army composed of Yiyue warriors.

These people already live in the mountains and forests, and they are very good at mountain warfare, and the mountains and forests that are difficult to overcome in the eyes of ordinary people are not a problem for them.

Due to the extraordinary ability of these people in the mountains and forests, when the army crossed the Taihang Mountains, they did not need to carry grain and grass at all, and only needed to hunt along the way.

As a result, logistical pressures are completely eliminated.

As the commander of this raid on Wei County, even if he is brave, but along the way, he feels that he can't keep up with the pace of the Wudang Flying Army.

After all, he was a cavalry general and was not proficient in mountain and forest warfare.

When Shamoke heard Pang De's praise, he was naturally very happy, and said: "If compared to fighting in the mountains and forests, the warriors of our clan dare to call the second, and no one in the world dares to call the first. ”

Pound didn't say anything to refute, just smiled and bowed his head.

The sunlight shone through the gaps in the branches, sparsely shining in the mountains and forests, and Pound looked up at the sky, but it was difficult to see the white clouds.

"I don't know, how long will it take to cross the Taihang Mountains, I just hope it won't rain during this time."

Liyang is a county seat in the southwest of Wei County, and it is also the junction of Jizhou, Sili and Yanzhou, and guards the north bank of the Yellow River, so its strategic location is extremely important.

It's just that the west of Liyang is the Taihang Mountains, and the Jizhou army is stationed on the road that must be passed, so the Liyang garrison is not worried about the threat from the west.

As for the Yellow River in the south, and the Guanzhong army is stationed in Puyang, the Liyang garrison is not under much pressure except for patrolling the Yellow River every day.

On this day, after the sky darkened, General Liyang sent people to monitor the water situation on the north bank of the Yellow River, but he himself went back to the city to sleep.

When it was almost early in the morning, the guard general of Liyang actually heard a shout of killing, he hurriedly got up from the bed, and walked out of the county office after putting on his clothes.

"Kill!"

However, at this moment, the city was already in flames, and the sound of killing shook the sky.

"Kill!"

A loud shout came from a distance, but it was Pang De who waved the big knife in his hand and rushed towards the county office.

There were many soldiers of Yuan, all of whom were chased and killed by the Wudang Fei Army led by Pang De.

"How can there be an army of thieves, how can there be an army of thieves?"

At this time, the guard of Liyang also felt panicked.

Fortunately, he also has some ability, and immediately after the panic, he shouted loudly: "Hugh should panic, Hugh should panic, move closer to me!" ”

It's good that the Liyang guard didn't roar, but after he yelled like this, it attracted Pang De's attention.

"Brothers, charge with me and kill that thief!"

Pang De took the Yiyue warriors behind him, roared and killed the Liyang guard, the Liyang guard was horrified when he saw this, and he didn't care about collecting the soldiers, he actually turned around and fled.

"Coward!"

Seeing this, Pang De was furious, took a strong bow and shot at the Liyang guard, even though it was dark now, Pang De still shot the Liyang guard to death with an arrow.

"The general is dead, the general is dead, the general is dead!"

The defenders of Liyang, who had been killed and retreated, suddenly screamed in panic after seeing the commander killed.

Pound was overjoyed when he heard this, and then shouted loudly: "You wait for the boss to be killed, when will you wait if you don't surrender at this time?" ”

After half a night of fighting, the shouting and killing in Liyang City finally stopped, and Pang De led the Wudang Flying Army to control the entire city.

Not only that, Pang De also sent Shamoko to raid the Yellow River crossing near Liyang City and captured many ships.

After getting the boat, Pang De immediately sent someone to cross the river to inform Chen Xu, but he himself was divided into two routes, one way to defend the city and the other to the ferry.

The white horses on the south bank of Liyang City had long been hiding an army, and when they got the news that Pang De had captured Liyang, they immediately began to cross the river.

The commander of the White Horse City was Zhang Xiu, and after he crossed the river into Liyang, he immediately asked, "Why did Ling Ming take Liyang so easily?" ”

Pang De sighed: "It's just that the Liyang guard is too incompetent, and he is not cautious in such a critical place." ”

"In addition, the bravery of the Wudang Flying Army is really impressive, not only are they good at climbing trees, but they are also outstanding at climbing city walls with hooks."

"If it weren't for their skills, it wouldn't be easy to take Liyang."

Zhang Xiu said: "No matter what, Ling Ming has made a great contribution this time. ”

Yuan Tan almost fainted when he learned the news that Liyang was taken down by Pang De, and when he knew what had happened, he immediately yelled and screamed at the trial.

Originally, Xu You had already guessed that the Guanzhong army might raid from Taihang Mountain into Wei County, but the trial swore that it was impossible, and Yuan Tancai did not increase his troops there.

Now that Liyang is lost, there has been a gap in the northern defense line of the Yellow River, and the Guanzhong army crossing the Yellow River north is unstoppable.

Thinking of this, Yuan Tan felt fear in his heart, and naturally blamed him again and again for the trial of bad things.

The age of the trial is a little older than Xu Yu, and now he is in his seventies, and he was scolded by Yuan Tan so much, he actually fainted in anger.

Even when he woke up, his face was already withered, and he vomited blood and died not long after.

After Yuan Tan learned the news, he immediately regretted it, but he couldn't change anything, so he could only do his best to save it.

He asked his son to inherit his title, and had the body of the judge be transported back to Yecheng for a thick burial.

However, it was said that after Chen Xu learned the news that Liyang was taken by Pang De, he immediately gathered his troops and horses in Puyang and went to White Horse City, preparing to cross the river from here.

Without the obstruction of Yuan's army, the Guanzhong army crossed the river very successfully this time.

When Yuan Tan sent a large army to capture Liyang, the Guanzhong army had already crossed the Yellow River, and the two sides fought twenty miles east of Liyang, and Yuan's army returned defeated.

Chen Xu asked his soldiers to chase and fight fiercely, completely defeating this Yuan army, and then marched eastward, preparing to annihilate the main force of Yuan's army.

Yuan Tan learned the news of the defeat of the forward, and heard that Chen Xu had sent a large army to attack, so he did not dare to fight with him at all, and withdrew his troops to Yecheng overnight.

Zhao Yun commanded 20,000 cavalry, caught up with the main force of Yuan's army, defeated it, and then pursued it for more than 30 miles.

Yuan Tan was desperately guarded by his cronies, and he was able to escape, but Xu Yu was too old to fall off his horse during the escape, and then was trampled to death.

Yuan Tan was defeated, and Jizhou was shaken.

Frustrated with illness, he was entangled in Changshan Kingdom and Chen Palace, and the two sides won and lost each other.

But after hearing the news, he suddenly felt that the general trend had gone, and remembered Yuan Shao's Tuogu before his death, and couldn't help but burst into tears.

Later, when I heard the news of the trial and Xu You's death, I was even more sad and my condition worsened.

Chen Gong took the opportunity to set up a plan to break the Yuan army of Changshan Kingdom, Wang Yan led his troops into the camp of the commander of the Yuan army, and was frustrated that he did not want to be captured, so he killed himself.

Chen Gong then quickly moved his troops north, and attacked Zhang He with Zhang Liao in front and back.

Yuan's army was defeated one after another, and its morale was low for a long time, but now it was attacked by both sides, and it was suddenly defeated and lost, and Zhang He's army was defeated and captured.

The Yuan clan of Jizhou is about to be destroyed.
