Just when Yuan Shao asked Chen Lin to write an essay, Zhang Yan had already released the essays calling on the world's heroes to jointly crusade against Yuan Shao.

This essay was ghostwritten by Ruan Yu himself, with fierce rhetoric, verbal criticism, and every word, and the crime of Yuan Shao's murder of the monarch was clearly revealed.

Yuan Shao's text has not been released here, and a scout over there brought the text of the crusade against Yuan Shao, and after Yuan Shao saw this text, he was so angry that it was difficult to calm down, and he fainted.

Tian Feng hurriedly asked Yuan Shao to lie on the side of the road, and then picked up the inscription and watched it together, after reading it, the foreheads of the two of them were also in cold sweat, and they had to admire the author of this inscription.

In the eyes of Tian Feng and Chen Lin, this essay is really a must.

"Alas!" Tian Feng sighed heavily, and said slowly, "Zhang Yan took the lead and was well prepared, it seems that the lord has been convicted of the crime of killing the monarch this time!" The only feasible thing now is to publish this article you wrote as soon as possible, which may confuse the public and let the world wait and see what happens. ”

Chen Lin nodded and said to Tian Feng: "Military Division, can you let me take this text away?" ”

Tian Feng knew very well in his heart that Chen Lin admired the rhetoric and style of this piece of writing very much, and took it away only out of appreciation. Not only him, but even himself admires the author's style very much, and I can't wait to meet him in person. But the text is not named, and it is not known who wrote it.

"You can take this text with you, but you must not let outsiders see it. I'm going to block all news about this text. The provincial capital will bring turmoil to the hearts of the military. ”

Chen Lin understood what Tian Feng meant. Immediately said: "Xia Guan understands! ”

In fact, Chen Lin is Yuan Shao's marching secretary, and most of the documents and official documents are ghostwritten by Chen Lin, so Chen Lin knows more about the military secrets in Yuan Shao's army than anyone else. And he is also regarded as a confidant by Yuan Shao. But in fact, he doesn't see himself as Yuan Shao's henchman, just as a relationship between superiors and subordinates. For Yuan Shao, let alone loyalty.

Chen Lin took the text away, and after leaving the big tent, Tian Feng called a military doctor and asked him to diagnose Yuan Shao.

The military doctor came, saying that Yuan Shao was just fainting from anger, and that it would be good to rest for a while, and prescribed a pair of medicines to Yuan Shao for Yuan Shao to take.

At the same time, Zhang Yan's army was on the official road. Waiting for work with ease, waiting for the arrival of Wen Chou's army.

After a stick of incense. Wen Chou really led the army to appear, and like Yan Liang, he has been rushing to the front of the team, but what is a little different from Yan Liang is that when Wen Chou saw that the official road in front of him was full of enemy troops who were waiting for him, he decisively ordered the army to stop advancing and stay in place and stand by.

Wen Chou frowned, his eyes as sharp as an eagle's falcon, and quickly glanced at the army in front of him, in front of him were rows of ironclad cavalry armed to the teeth, and even the war horses under the seat were wrapped in a layer of armor, and between the war horses and the war horses, they were also locked together by iron cables, and each soldier held the same strange weapon in his hand, like a stick, and like a thorn, he couldn't name it.

In addition, these ironclad cavalry were more or less stained with blood, behind them were soldiers who could not be seen at a glance, and on their flanks, thousands of crossbowmen were scattered, and the entire army was in a fan-shaped encirclement.

Where is Yan Liang?

Wen Chou doesn't know, but according to his calculations, Yan Liang is likely to have suffered a misfortune, or has been transferred away from the mountain by the enemy.

In short, Yan Liang was not alive or dead, and the whereabouts of the entire army were unknown.

Wen Chou's heart muttered, Yan Liang opened the way in front of him, and all he brought were the elite cavalry in the Jizhou army, five thousand elites, it was impossible to say that it was gone, it must have been led to other places by the enemy.

Before Wen Chou could make a decision, he saw that the flag in the enemy's camp suddenly waved, and the ironclad cavalry at the front shook majestically, and a row of ten horses slowly rushed over. The crossbowmen, scattered on both flanks, also began to move, always keeping in step with the ironclad cavalry.

Wen Chou sneered, waved the spear in his hand forward, and shouted loudly: "Kill!" ”

With Wen Chou's order, Wen Chou was the first to rush out, riding his horse and spear, and moving forward quickly, and the cavalry behind him also rushed over.

The two armies confronted each other, there was no conspiracy, no trickery, and no ambush, what they fought for was strength.

Seeing Wen Chou leading the army to rush forward, Zhang Yan, who was in the Chinese army, smiled, and he immediately gave Xu Chu an order to let Xu Chu lead another 1,000 iron chain horses to make a detour from the flank, preparing to outflank, wanting to eliminate Wen Chou like Yan Liang.

The chain of horses that rushed to the front also began to speed up, and the cavalry rushed towards Wen Chou and the others with maces horizontally.

A moment later, there was a loud "boom", the two armies rushed together, Wen Chou raised his gun and stabbed, but the iron gun in his hand could not pierce the armor of the enemy soldiers, but because of his excessive strength, he was stunned and knocked a cavalryman off the horse.

As soon as the cavalryman fell from his horse, he fell heavily to the ground, but because the rows of horses always kept a distance from each other, he was not trampled by the horses that followed, but quickly got up from the ground, and then hurried forward.

At this time, the remaining nine soldiers waved their maces and attacked Wen Chou, who immediately raised their guns to parry, but at this moment, the horses under Wen Chou's seat suddenly let out a hysterical scream, and the painful war horse fell to the ground with a bang, and Wen Chou was overturned from the horse.

Wen Chou noticed that the soldier who had fallen off his war horse just now had returned, and with a wave of his mace, he hit the defenseless war horse under Wen Chou's seat.

Fortunately, Wen Chou was agile, a harrier turned over, and stood up from the ground, but he didn't expect that two maces were coming, he gasped, and immediately did another backflip and dodged.

At this time, the cavalry behind Wen Chou also rushed over, and stabbed these ironclad cavalry with their blades, who knew that the defense of these ironclad cavalry was so strong, the spear could not pierce the armor on their bodies, and one was killed by the ironclad cavalry one after another if they didn't pay attention.

Seeing this, Wen Chou couldn't help frowning, seeing that there were rows of ironclad cavalry behind him, even if he killed the people in the first row, the people in the second row would immediately fill the vacancy. What's more, these ironclad cavalry are not easy to deal with, and his martial bravery, in the here and now, can not play any role, and almost lost his life.

"Whoosh ......"

The arrows like flying locusts suddenly shot overwhelmingly, and the cavalry behind Wen Chou was immediately shot down, and many people fell off their horses.

Wen Chou immediately turned over and jumped on a war horse, and saw an ironclad cavalry slowly detouring from the flanks, as if he wanted to cut off his way back.

Wen Chou immediately made a decision, immediately turned the horse's head, and ordered: "Withdraw!" Evacuate! ”

With Wen Chou's order, the army turned its horses, and the rear team changed to the front team, and they all retreated sharply.

The arrows kept attacking from behind, Wen Chou lay on the horse's back, looked back, but inadvertently saw a big wooden sign standing on the side of the road, the wooden sign was written with the words "Be careful that there is an ambush here", and at the top of the wooden card, there was a bloody human head. His shili is excellent, and when he looks at it, on the pale face with blood on his face, there is a pair of big eyes like copper bells, and it turned out to be Yan Liang.

Suddenly, there was a throbbing pain in Wen Chou's heart, this Yan Liang, who had been his brother for many years and had been suffering together, was actually killed!

Astound!

Except for shock, Wen Chou no longer felt anything.

Yan Liang's death also indicates that the five thousand elite horsemen he brought with him have also been wiped out, and the other party still has an almost invincible chain of iron chain horse formations, how can he fight this battle?

Seeing Wen Chou retreating with his army, Zhang Yan did not order the pursuit, after all, his cavalry were all heavy cavalry, and he couldn't catch up with Wen Chou at all, so why bother in vain.

This battle did not bring much joy to Zhang Yan, because of Wen Chou's calmness and quick decision, his subordinates only lost more than 200 people.

After Zhang Yan reorganized his troops and horses, he asked Xu Chu to lead these two thousand iron chain horses to advance along the official road, while he led the army to follow closely behind, since Yuan Shao did not come to find him, then he went to find Yuan Shao himself.

At this time, the scout came to Zhang Yan and told Zhang Yan that Zhang Liao and Gao Shun's army had arrived at Lihu and asked for further instructions.

Zhang Yan then ordered Zhang Liao and Gao Shun to lead their own troops to support him, while the 50,000 militiamen stayed in Lihu for the time being, not to participate in the war, and let Yanzhou Assassin Shi Baoxun temporarily take charge.

Wen Chou quickly retreated with his army, and on the way, he met a scout who went to give Yan Liang an order, but was stopped by Wen Chou and asked him to go back to inform Yuan Shao that Yan Liang's entire army was annihilated, and Zhang Yan's army was so strong that he could not resist it, and prayed for reinforcements.

Wen Chou stayed here and sent scouts to inquire about Zhang Yan's army, and when he learned that Zhang Yan was slowly marching, he led his army to slowly retreat, trying to avoid confrontation with Zhang Yan's army, so as not to cause unnecessary casualties.

Although Yan Liang and Wen Chou are equally famous, but Yan Liang is just a horseman, in comparison, Wen Chou is brave and strategic, of course, his resourcefulness is only relative to Yan Liang, and he is only a general who knows a little about soldiers and horses, and there is still a gap between him and those famous generals who are good at using soldiers.

The scout knew the seriousness of the matter and immediately went back to report it to Yuan Shao.

At this time, Yuan Shao had already woken up and had just taken the medicine, and the scout came back from the front and told Yuan Shao that Yan Liang's entire army was wiped out, and after Wen Chou prayed for reinforcements, Yuan Shao was filled with anger again, it was difficult to calm down, and he almost fainted.

"Zhang Yan'er, you deceive me too much! Pass the order, the whole army will set off, I will fight Zhang Yan to the death! Yuan Shao was annoyed and ashamed, and regardless of anyone's persuasion, he issued an order to march. (To be continued......)
