Chapter 0067: A Solemn Counterattack
Looking at the endless and lush forest in front of him, Gongsun Chan couldn't help but stop his horse and let out a heartfelt admiration.
"What a great place! Is this the Burial Moon Forest? Gongsun Chan pointed ahead and asked loudly.
Guan Jing, who was following behind, immediately said, "Yes." If you want to get around this forest, you need to walk an extra thirty miles to get to Changping. But if you pass through the forest, you only need to walk another six miles to see Changping. ”
"Everyone walks into the Burial Moon Forest, except for the businessmen. Traders are afraid that their goods will be hijacked by horse thieves, so they prefer to take a detour. Zou Dan then followed and added.
Gongsun Chan nodded and said, "Burial Moon, this name is very good. Is the road wide in the forest? ”
"A dozen horses walked side by side without realizing the crowd." Guan Jing said.
"Then let's go through the forest." Gongsun Chan made a decision.
Three thousand cavalry entered the forest one after another.
Although the road in the forest is potholed, it is very wide, and it has probably been repaired by many people, and there is not even a single tree stump visible on the road.
The trees on both sides of the road are towering into the sky, obscuring the sky and the sun. The sunlight shone through the dense branches and leaves, leaving countless mottled afterimages on the green grass.
The forest is full of shrubs, and a wide variety of plants and flowers can be found everywhere. Frightened, birds and critters scurried around. Due to the lack of sunlight all year round, the forest is filled with an unpleasant smell of dampness and decay.
The road in the forest is about five miles long, and everyone walks around and takes a look, and before you know it, you will reach the end.
Out of the Burial Moon Forest, Gongsun Zhan's eyes lit up.
Inside and outside the forest are two very different worlds. One is a quiet and elegant moonlit night, and the other is a brilliant day. Being on the edge of these two worlds, Gongsun Chan had an indescribable feeling.
At this moment, Gongsun Chan felt Yuhuacong's uneasiness. He looked around alertly, then flew off his horse and fell to the ground with his whole body on the ground, listening attentively.
Suddenly, he jumped up from the ground and roared with all his strength: "Sneak attack, enemy sneak attack......"
………………
Zhu Liang looked at the chaotic team, and rushed out in a swarm, screaming and screaming wildly, completely disorganized, and he couldn't see any array formation.
He glared at Yan Zheng beside him and roared angrily: "Your people are a bunch of idiots. The enemy's large army is still in the Burial Moon Forest, and you don't follow the order to launch an attack without permission, what do you want to do? ”
Zhu Liang originally revealed his identity and wanted to take refuge in Li Yi. In his opinion, he is a filial piety and a talented person in the imperial court, Li Yi is just a businessman who raised troops, and there must be a lack of talents under his command. didn't expect Li Yi to give him face at all, which made Zhu Liang feel greatly humiliated.
Therefore, after being driven out of Jixian County by Li Yi, he immediately went north to Changping. Zhu Liang knew very well that Li Yi would definitely send a large army to exterminate Yan Zheng, and this was his Zhu Liang's opportunity, so he decided to make suggestions for Yan Zheng and defeat the army sent by Li Yi. He wants to use his actual actions to tell Li Yi how stupid his decision was.
It is precisely because of his expectations that Zhu Liang is particularly angry when he sees the performance of his subordinates.
Yan Zheng had a black face, didn't drag him, and said coldly: "If you say that my person is an idiot, I will take someone to walk and let you, an idiot, die." ”
Zhu Liang screamed furiously and drew his sword with a snort.
When the solemn guards saw Zhu Liang showing off their weapons, they naturally stopped doing it, and they all shouted, each holding a weapon, and they were going to fight.
The two sides are tense and on the verge of breaking out.
Yan Zheng is in his thirties, and before joining Taiping Dao, he was a horse bandit, ruthless and unruly. He stopped the impulse of his subordinates, pointed at Zhu Liang's nose, and said contemptuously: "If it weren't for General Gao's sake, I would have skinned you today." ”
Immediately, he stopped taking care of Zhu Liang, whose face was purple, and turned his horse to chase after his team.
Looking at the departing solemnity, Zhu Liang was angry and shouted angrily: "The erector is not enough and the plan!" ”
Zhu Liang lowered his head and pondered, and muttered: "This Yan Zheng is really brainless, and he really regards Li Yijun, who defeated Gao Sheng, as the Han army that was wiped out by them before?" Alas...... The enemy had just come out of the forest, and the large army was still in the Burial Moon Forest. The stern people couldn't bear to attack early, which not only exposed the team, but also ruined my big things. I'm so confused, how can I work with this class of idiots. Forget it, it seems that you can't count on solemnity, his defeat is just around the corner. Thirty-six plans are the best plans, and I will take one step first. ”
……
Gongsun Zhan, with a few generals under his command and three thousand white horse volunteers, launched a wild goose charging procession, and greeted the roaring enemy like lightning.
Nearly 70,000 Yellow Turban soldiers rushed over with great momentum, overwhelming the sky, and a loud rumbling sound resounded through the edge of the forest.
Gongsun Chan shouted: "Retreat, the whole army turns left, turn left to the south ......"
"The rear team changes to the front team, and immediately leaves the battlefield, and leaves the battlefield ......"
The horn sounded suddenly, and the low and poignant sound suddenly surpassed the roar of the galloping horses and clearly reached the ears of every warrior.
The 3,000 cavalrymen of Gongsun Chan are all natives of the frontier and have grown up on horseback since childhood. In recent decades, the Han Dynasty has been declining, and the Hu people in the north have entered the army almost every autumn and winter. In order to survive, these Han people who grew up in the border areas have been constantly receiving cavalry training and war influence since they were children, and their stable psychological quality, skilled horse control skills and Hu people are no different, and absolute obedience is beyond the reach of the free and loose Hu people.
Gongsun Zhan watched his cavalry soldiers in a frightened and orderly manner, and they galloped freely on the battlefield according to the command of the horn and horn, and he was very happy in his heart.
Li Yi's brother's 5,000 cavalry pales in comparison with his own 3,000 white horses.
After being placed under the command of Li Yi, Gongsun Chan also made a lot of contributions, and Li Yi also took great care of him, and did not send him to perform dangerous tasks. Gongsun Chan knew that Li Yi was thinking about him, but this made Gongsun Chan a little unhappy in his heart. He Gongsun Zhan started from a small soldier and killed step by step to his current position, what he needs is bloody fighting, not a steady and steady meritorious service.
………………
The abrupt turn of the Han army, which left without a fight, greatly stimulated the enemy who sneaked up on them.
These Yellow Turban troops have always had a psychological advantage in the face of the Han army, because since Jizhou raised their troops, they have gone all the way north to Youzhou, and have experienced countless big battles and small battles, which can be described as invincible.
The Han army in front of him, although it is said that it has defeated General Gao Sheng's army, but in the face of our army, isn't it also invincible?
The chaotic Yellow Turban soldiers thought that they were too numerous and scared away the Han army, and they shouted excitedly one by one and chased them frantically.
However, Gongsun Zhan's cavalry was four-legged after all, so how could it be compared to the two legs of the Yellow Turban soldiers? Soon, the three thousand white horses were about to be separated from the solemn army to a distance of one mile.
Yan Zheng was very unwilling in his heart, and desperately urged his subordinates to speed up.
At this moment, a big tree on the side of the road suddenly fell, and several pursuing Yellow Turban soldiers were caught off guard and smashed into the ground, dying on the spot.
The high-speed procession came to an abrupt halt.
However, at the northern entrance to the forest, the soldiers were still swarming in. Nearly 70,000 troops, even if they were lined up in a row of twenty people, the ranks were stretched into long snakes that stretched for several miles.
Yan Zheng grabbed the angry horse that raised its hooves and towered with one hand, and pointed at the big tree with the whip in the other hand and shouted: "Move it, move away." ”
A dozen or so Yellow Turban soldiers in the front row hurriedly ran over, and together they lifted the giant tree and moved it to the side of the road.
People on the road of the Burial Moon Forest shouted and neighed, and the shouts and curses rose to the sky. The soldiers in the back were hindered by the soldiers in front, and they didn't know what was happening, and they were worried that they would not be able to kill people and get heads, so they anxiously broke out and cursed.
Yan Zheng looked back at the more and more soldiers on the road, more and more crowded, and scolded angrily.
When the giant tree was moved to the middle of the road by the soldiers, Yan Zheng couldn't hold back the burning mood, snorted angrily, and took the lead in beating the horse and galloping out.
