Chapter 336 White Horse Righteous Cong and Dragon Rider
Taishi Ci took 20,000 Qing Xu soldiers to attack Huguan. From the afternoon of the news that Huguan had been broken, he fled back to Lin County at night. During this period, a lot of things happened within the coalition. *www.paosh.**
After discussion, the three forces of Zhu Jun, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan decided to let Yuan Shao's elliptical soldiers replace Qing Xubing to guard Huguan next. Qing Xubing, who had made great contributions, followed Zhu Jun into the hinterland of Bingzhou and began to use troops against Taiyuan County. The battle goal was to capture Jinyang City.
The generals of the Eastern Alliance Army had the idea of letting Qing Xubing die, and went to test whether the news of Zhao Yun's death was reliable. Unexpectedly, Taishi Ci picked up a big leak, which naturally made Yuan Shao, who had paid a considerable price of casualties, was very annoyed. Huguan was like a sharp sword hanging above Jizhou, and now it was finally broken, and it must be in Yuan Shao's own hands no matter what. So Yuan Shao promised to provide another batch of food and grass assistance to the Southern Army and Youzhou Army, in exchange for the power of garrison in Huguan.
For Zhu Jun, extermination of Zhao Xing was his goal. As for who will guard Huguan, he didn't care much. Anyway, after the war is over in the future, he will definitely not let the Central Army guard it. Since Yuan Shao is enthusiastic, Zhu Jun simply gave him a favor.
For Gongsun Zan, he felt like he had been knocked over the five flavor bottles. He sacrificed his life to plot against Zhao Yun, but he did not expect to help Qing Xubing. In the end, Yuan Shao was the one who got the advantage, which had nothing to do with him, the one-eyed dragon. Fortunately, Yuan Shao didn't dare to eat alone, so he agreed to give a batch of supplies to Youzhou, so that Gongsun Zan could think about it at least.
Just as various forces were planning what great benefits they could get after entering Bingzhou, the bad news suddenly came, and Qing Xubing was trapped! Taishi Ci, who was covered in wounds, escaped from Huguan with Mi Zhu alone. Qing Xubing, who had gone 20,000 yuan, came back less than 10,000 yuan.
After hearing the news, Zhu Jun, Yuan Shao and others were shocked and went out to investigate the case. Everyone used the torch to illuminate the fire. Sure enough, they saw Taishi Ci, who was covered in wounds, waiting outside the coalition camp with a group of blood-filled defeated soldiers. Out of caution, Zhu Jun ordered his subordinates to ask Taishi Ci far away through the camp.
"Why is General Taishi so embarrassed? What happened in Huguan?" The messenger shouted loudly.
"Reported to Marshal Zhu, the general Zhao Yun, the Huguan Guard, was killed in a battle, but he was deceived. I was caught in a plan to lure the enemy. At night, I was suddenly attacked by the Bingzhou army hidden in a cave. Qing Xu's army was defeated in panic. From soldiers to generals, countless people were killed. Ci fought hard and brought back nearly 10,000 defeated soldiers!" Taishi Ci tried his best to evade Zhu Jun according to Guo Jia's previous explanation.
When Zhu Jun heard that Zhao Yun was indeed pretending to die, he was shocked and thought that it was fortunate that Qing Xu's army was a cannon fodder, otherwise no matter who went to attack the key points this time, he would suffer a big loss. Although Qing Xu's army had been defeated and had almost no combat power now, Zhu Jun, as the commander of the Eastern Alliance, could not let him go, so he quickly ordered people to withdraw the Ji Malu Chai, open the camp gate and let Qing Xu's remaining soldiers return to the army camp.
Since Zhao Yun was not dead, Huguan was still in the hands of the Bingzhou Army, and the agreement reached by various forces earlier was naturally invalidated. Everyone returned to their respective tents with great worries and prepared to gather together tomorrow before making plans.
When he arrived at the Qing Xu Army's headquarters, Taishici immediately ordered the various camps to collect the "remaining soldiers" and start to treat the "injured soldiers", burying the pot and making rice, and it was to stop until late at night. When the night was the strongest before dawn, a figure quietly slipped into Taishici's tent, and the man was Huaweiguo.
"General Taishi, I have sent people to investigate everywhere just now. The Youzhou army has not taken strict precautions and is just like other armies. It should not see any flaws and can carry out the next action." Hua Weiguo said in a low voice.
"Okay, I'll order the Dragon Cavalry to start taking action!" Taishici didn't hesitate and immediately left the camp and began to issue a night attack order.
After receiving the orders of their respective leaders, the Dragon Cavalry soldiers took advantage of the night to approach the Youzhou Military Camp where Gongsun Zan was. This time, they were no longer the "hello and I'm fine" meeting with Qing Xubing, but a ruthless fight with swords and guns.
Gongsun Zan's ten thousand white horses were not weak brigades, but the leader of the cavalry in the northeast. They were placed on the front battlefield to confront people. Even if the Flying Tiger Army wanted to fight and win, it would be a result of a tragic victory. Unfortunately, at dawn, even the most powerful cavalry had to go to the ground to sleep. The Southern Army under Zhu Yan was stationed on the outer camp of the coalition camp. No one expected that 10,000 Bingzhou soldiers suddenly touched in, which created a very good opportunity for Taishici to launch a night attack.
Gongsun Zan was suffering from eye injuries. He finally fell asleep in a deep sleep in the middle of the night. Suddenly, he heard the loud voices outside the tent and was immediately shocked and sweated. Before he could call for someone, Murong Ping, who was only wearing underwear, had already snatched in, carried Gongsun Zan and ran out.
Gongsun Zan hurriedly asked Murong Ping what happened. Mu Rongping ran and said, "The coalition forces were trapped. The 10,000 people brought back by Taishi Ci were not the remnants of Qing Xu Bing, but the elites of Bingzhou Army. Now they took advantage of the chaos to attack the Youzhou Army's camp. Baima Yi is afraid of the danger of being in danger this time!"
"What? Taishici actually had an affair with Bingzhou! Can Military Commander Tian and General Xu know about this?" Gongsun Zan no longer cared about the wound in his right eye, broke free from Murong Ping and asked in anger.
"The Bingzhou Army launched an attack too suddenly. Now fires are on the camp. I just want to come to protect the general, but I have not seen General Tian and General Xu." Murong Ping had to answer truthfully.
Gongsun Zan turned around and headed to the chaotic Youzhou military camp. Although there might be a sea of swords and fires ahead, he still refused to save his white horse Yicong. These soldiers were his lifeblood, and one more could be saved.
At the beginning of Taishi Ci's night attack, it really caught the sleeping Youzhou Army off guard and many people were killed in the chaos. But Baima Yi has never been a weak brigade. Once he reacted, he immediately began to gather in a small area and used the terrain to fight with the Dragon Cavalry soldiers in close combat.
What is particularly commendable is that Tian Yu and Xu Rong, after they found that they were attacked, immediately gathered the soldiers around them, issued various command orders loudly, mobilized all the soldiers in the middle of the Youzhou military camp, and tightly surrounded the city and formed a temporary defensive formation to avoid the trampling and accidental injury of their own soldiers.
Tian Yu has already given a special explanation in the previous article. Jia Xu, who can be called a simplified version, has many strategies and is a top strategist. Xu Rong is unknown and ignored by everyone.
In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Xu Rong was a third-rate general who was killed by Xiahou Dun for several rounds, but the Romance and history are often very different. Xu Rong in history was a famous man. He once defeated Cao Cao and Sun Jian in military terms, and the number of victories was shocking. Although there are few records about him, it was enough to make him squeeze into the ranks of the top generals of the Three Kingdoms.
With the two heavyweights adapting to the situation, the massacre situation that should have been one-sided gradually stopped. The white horse Yicong, who put on armor and took good weapons, immediately showed good military qualities and fought desperately with the Dragon Cavalry.
When Taishi Ci saw that his casualties began to increase, and the night attack had already attracted a chain reaction from Zhu Jun and Yuan Shao's camp, he made a quick decision and ordered his subordinates to send fireworks signals, asking Zhang Liao, who was ambushing not far away, to come and respond.
