Chapter 410: A Hundred Miles of Wolf Smoke in Qingzhou


"Huh", Zhou Tai put away the knife, and Lerma turned around and walked back.

Wen Chou's face turned red, "Before you know the winner, Zhou Tai, you will be cowardly."

"My brother Mingjin, it is not too late for you and me to fight again in the future."

Zhou Tai is honest and straightforward, where there is a city government, he replied casually when he thought of anything.

"Siege."

Wen Chou didn't dare to give up, and as soon as the long knife was raised, the iron horsemen dozens of steps away raised their blades and killed towards the city gate.

"Shoot arrows, throw stones."

At the head of the city, Jiang Qin took a step back suddenly, and in front of him, one or two thousand archers stepped forward in two rows, and they all drew their longbows to the full moon and shot towards the outside of the city.

On the top of the city gate tower behind him, with the sound of a bowstring, countless black shadows appeared in the sky at the same time.

The iron cavalry of the Yuan army, which was killed head-on, fell in a row outside the city, and then countless boulders fell, and Wen Chou was forced to have no choice but to swing a knife to smash a boulder and order the withdrawal of the army.

Dozens of corpses and horses were left in place, and he stood a hundred and fifty paces away looking at the city.

"Damn, this second general of the Jiangdong Navy Division is so tricky."

"General, how should our army behave?"

"Drag, when the rest of the counties and horses arrive, a certain army will be sent to attack the city."

Wen Chou Lerma led the army to withdraw a mile away, and was ordering the whole army to rest on the spot, when he suddenly got a report from the battle in the north, "Report to General Wen, Cao Cao ordered Taishan Taishou Lu Qian to lead an army of 5,000 to attack Jinan." ” Wen Chou's face was slightly shocked, "He Cao Cao is crazy and dares to attack Jinan at this time, is he not afraid that the eldest son will immediately withdraw his troops and return to help, and join forces with Liu Qi to attack him Cao Mengde" "General Wen, our army should immediately come to the rescue, and urge the Wangmen and other departments to immediately wave their troops to rescue, stick to the northern counties, and wait for the assassin Shi to lead the army back to help."

Wen Chou bowed his head, "For today's plan, it can only be like this." ” After a short time, the sentry cavalry reported to the two generals in Jimo City, "Report to the two governors, Wen Chou withdrew his troops thirty miles away and went to Jinan." ” Jiang Qin and the two glanced at each other, and the former stroked his beard with one hand, "Send a war horse to explore again, maybe this is Wen Chou's plan to lure the enemy." ” Half a day later, the war horse returned again, "Back to the two governors, Wen Chou has led the army to withdraw from Beihai County. ” "Youping, you lead 10,000 soldiers and horses to go first, and go straight to the drama county."

"What does my brother want?"

"I led the army to arrive later, and I ordered the rear team to bring up the grain, grass, and siege equipment, and he retreated, so our army took advantage of the situation to pursue."

"Whoa."

"In addition, immediately send a clipper ship south along the coast to report the battle report here to the Xuzhou camp."

"Whoa."

At the time when Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai captured Donglai County and occupied Beihai County, Yuan Tan's camp had just withdrawn to Kaiyang, and tens of thousands of troops in Jiangdong rushed straight to Jiqiu.

At the beginning of May, Sima Sun Guan of Taishan Army was ambushed by Yuan's army on the mountain road, and his 3,000 soldiers were surrounded by regiments, Sun Guan was cut off his horse by Wang Zhao, a general under Yuan Tan, and when he was seriously injured and dying, he was covered by a group of wounded soldiers and retreated.

Yuan's army pursued and killed after covering, and encountered Chen Gong's army going north five miles away.

An hour later, 10,000 Yuan troops dispersed, Zang Ba carried Wang Zhao's head to the front of the camp and scolded angrily, and was killed and retreated by 10,000 iron cavalry under the command of Cen Bi and Peng An.

On the tenth day of the first month of May, Yuan Tan gathered nearly 50,000 main forces to engage the Xuzhou soldiers in the open field outside Kaiyang City.

Zang Ba of the Xuzhou side led 7,000 soldiers from Taishan, 20,000 soldiers from Xuzhou under Zhang Liao, 3,000 troops from Gaoshun's camp, and 6,000 soldiers from Tuntian, totaling 36,000 people.

After several hours of fierce fighting, the army was in chaos, Xuzhou ordered Tai Shi Ci and Zhang Cheng to lead the troops to kill, three thousand heavy cavalry from the flank, and defeated the iron cavalry of Cen Bi and Peng An's two generals, Peng An was picked off the horse by Tai Shi Ci with a shot, Cen Bi was about to retreat, but Zhang Cheng, who was riding lightly by the commander, stabbed the horse from behind.

The rout began when Guo Tu supported Yuan Tan to retreat.

The defeat was like a mountain, the reinforcements of 50,000 troops, and nearly 70,000 people, like the waves on the beach not far away, Chen Gong ordered, the army then covered up, all the way from Kaiyang to Ju County, and then from Ju County to Dongguan, more than 100 miles along the way, Tai Shi Ci led the army to kill 20 miles after the troops, his heavy cavalry and horses were all wearing heavy armor, and they had long been unable to run.

Zang Ba happily took Wu Dun to capture Ju County, so he ordered Zhang Bang to settle the people and no longer pursue, Zhang Liao ordered Lu Junhou's battalion soldiers and horses to capture the remnants of the sentry towers along the coast, collect the prisoners, and go north to take the Dongwu counties.

Gao Shun, on the other hand, stayed in Kaiyang to count the captured horses, ordnance, grain and grass.

"Peping, our army has covered and killed hundreds of miles all the way, and on the coast of this hundred miles, you can see the beacon towers built by Yuan's army everywhere."

"It's just some sentry towers, at best, they release wolf smoke as a warning, and each sentry tower is only garrisoned by two or three people, so why should the assassin bother" "Peping has always been steady, why do you despise these beacons so much, you can know, if there are no these beacons, hundreds of soldiers along the coast will guard the coast, and our army would have already landed from the coast and taken Langya lightly."

"The wolf smoke can only serve as a warning, and the princes of the Northland have no sailors, and even after a few years, they will not be able to compete with our army on this vast sea."

Chen Gong stroked his beard with one hand, "In today's battle, Yuan Tan was defeated, and the remnants led by him should go north to Qi State in Gai County, and Boping thought that our army would pursue it."

"Our army has taken Langya country, Donglai and Beihai can take it, and Cao Cao still has heavy troops in Taishan County, and he Yuan Tan is only afraid that it will be difficult to pass Mount Tai safely."

Chen Gong squinted, "But if our army pushes Yuan Tan to Cao Jun, and Cao Jun also sees through this plan, does not kill Yuan Tan, and lets him return to the north, what should I do?"

Gao Shun was silent for a moment, "The history of the assassination can know about Liu Qi of Jingzhou" Chen Gong suddenly laughed, "Brother Lang Wall, capture Yuan Tan and use his name to capture the land of Hebei in the future. ” "What does the lord mean" Gao Shun is still thinking about Wen Hou now, but Wu King Liu Qi is Wen Hou's son-in-law after all, and Lu Lingqi, the eldest daughter of Wen Hou who he swore to protect to the death, is now about to give birth, if he can give birth to a son, he Gao Shun, Zang Ba, Zhang Liao, Chen Gong and other Xuzhou civil and military families, I am afraid that they will also have more thoughts, and strive to protect the grace of their young master's status.

"Take the land of Qingzhou, if Yuan Tan Cao Cao does not kill, our army can also be killed, and when Hebei is captured in the future, it should be another story."

Gao Shun's pupils contracted slightly, "The lord is going to take the land of the Central Plains first." ” Chen Gong smiled, raised his feet and walked on the soft sand, did not answer, but pointed to a sentry tower dozens of steps away, pointing to the smoke that rose and disappeared in the strong wind, "Peping, you think, you can congratulate the little prince for offering this hundred miles of wolf smoke."

Gao Shun was stunned, and then squeezed out a smile on his face: "Maybe it's a woman." ”:
