Chapter 89: Western Liaoning trapped Gongsun Du
Xu You said incrediblely:
"I've been delayed for a long time. By then, Tang Quan had already returned to the army. With his rumored terrifying cavalry, we can only do this small city? So I suggest withdrawing troops across the river and returning to Yanzhou, taking down Dongjun and destroying Liu Dai, and following the trend, annexing the surrounding princes, so that we can have a place to defend, and also obtain a large amount of food and grass and tens of thousands of troops;
As long as we occupy Yanzhou and have the strength, it will be much more convenient for us to do anything in the future. Once Tang Quan has the strength of the three states, he will be the largest prince in the world. If we do not have sufficient military strength, it will be difficult to fight against him..."
Yuan Shao nodded and looked at Feng Ji and asked:
"How do you look at the Yuantu?"
"Ziyuan said it very well. If we continue to fight, even if we have military rations, we will have to consume a lot of troops. Once Tang Quan returns to the army or Jizhou's troops continue to replenish, we will have to be defeated. For the sake of the present, we can only take advantage of our food and sufficient troops and return to Yanzhou to quickly seize the surrounding area with a broken bamboo force."
"But it is probably difficult to capture Yanzhou alone, just tens of thousands of soldiers?" Yuan Shao said with a frown.
Xu You's eyes flashed and said:
"Did you remember that back then, we had a playmate in the youth. He now took over Chenliu County. Not to mention the 30,000 troops under his command, there were many generals under his command, Xiahou brothers, Cao Hong, Cao Ren, Li Dian, Le Jin and others. If the adults invite Ah Man to divide Yanzhou, we will not be the only one who faces Tang Quan at that time, and we can start from Sizhou to attack Yangzhou. If there is a prosperous place in Yangzhou, wouldn't we be more stable?"
Yuan Shao had already shown his nature of being good at making plans and making few decisions. He touched his chin and said:
"Yes, Meng De and I grew up together since childhood. We still remember the fact that we climbed over the wall and stole the bride, but would Meng De take action with us?"
"You are willing to go to be a lobbyist in person, so he will definitely raise an army to attack Liu Dai and others." Xu You said hurriedly.
Feng Ji wanted to open his mouth several times to speak, but when he saw Yuan Shao and Xu You's eyes were filled with joy and excitement, he closed his mouth. After Xu You rushed to Chenliu, Yuan Shao quickly set off his troops and retreated across the Yellow River.
When he learned that Yuan Shao had withdrawn his troops, Tian Fengju Suu discussed and asked Gao Lan and Ju Yi to lead 30,000 troops to guard all the river bank ferries, but Zhang He led 10,000 light cavalry to western Liaoning.
In a blink of an eye, Tang Quan had been in western Liaoning for more than a month, but as reinforcements from various races near western Liaoning came, he still just stood up and did not do anything else.
On the third day when Zhang He's cavalry arrived, the attack finally began. This time, Gongsun Du invited at least 100,000 reinforcements. Because he learned that the field battle of the Cavalry Army was terrifying, these 100,000 people and Gongsun Du's 40,000 soldiers and 40,000 soldiers in the city were actually planning to hold on to fight a protracted battle with Tang Quan.
Seeing that no reinforcements from foreign race came, Tang Quan looked at Liaoxi City in front and said:
"Have everyone arrived? And how long is our stones lasting?"
Geng Wu stepped forward to report:
"Everyone has been in place. The infantry attacking Sanhan and Goguryeo has blocked all the information channels. In half a day, all the men of Sanhan and Goguryeo can be killed.
Zhang He, the passageway in the direction of Wuhuan and Xianbei, has led the cavalry and 20,000 infantry to block it, and will never let an enemy escape. As for us, there is actually a rocky field behind us. Even if the general thrusts hard, it will probably be enough for one month and a half."
Tang Quan nodded without changing his expression. Goguryeo and Sanhan were the most disgusting places for Tang Quan. It was a foreigner of barbarians. The barbarians who had no weapons except for kanzi. Later generations turned against each other after receiving the care of China. Tang Quan planned to clean up such people to avoid a headache when he heard them in the future.
The troops attacked Goguryeo and Sanhan were not army troops. When he set out for Jizhou, he let the navy approach the Yellow Sea. When Goguryeo reinforcements set off, Tang Quan also issued an order to clear out all the resisters there. The woman tried her best to stay. If the resistance was still a big deal.
The news of the troops with artillery and muskets was completely blocked, but the attack speed was also scary. In less than two days, all the resistances of the Bad Scouts and Goguryeo were killed. Small towns, tribes and villages were the attack missions of the current navy.
"Attack, break the Liaoxi city and let the aliens know my cruelty and domineeringness. We don't need the enemy to surrender. As long as we dare to be enemies with us, the aliens will only die."
In Tang Quan's voice, the war drums began to ring, and thousands of catapults emerged from each direction on all directions on western Liaoning. Tang Quan and Diao Chan each led half of the cavalry to defend at the diagonal corner.
"attack......"
During the command, Tang Quan did not care about the other party's feelings at all, and the rocks fell from the sky. Under the bombing, screams on the city walls began to sound one after another. However, when he saw the solemn Cavalry Army, Gongsun Du did not dare to send troops to attack. This shows that the reputation of Tang Quan's Cavalry Army had become synonymous with terror in the north.
However, this kind of thing is normal. Gongsun Zan's white horse Yicong killed the aliens and retreated, while Tang Quan's cavalry army instantly killed the white horse Yicong. Therefore, Gongsun Du and those foreigners who have always been fierce did not dare to come out when they saw the cavalry army arranged neatly but were not moved by the attacks around.
If you don't come out, it doesn't mean you're safe. After the bombing on the first day, Gongsun Du counted the casualties and injuries, which were as high as 70,000 to 8,000. It was not advisable to be forced to evacuate the city walls, but at night, Tang Quan's attack on the throwing of stones did not stop. When the next day, he saw that most of the battlements and walls of all the city walls in Liaoxi City had collapsed.
It is said that if the Liaodong army has no morale, it should stop bombarding and siege the city, but Tang Quan continued to bombard it in turn. It was not until ten days later that a group of Liaodong soldiers who were no longer willing to stay in the city opened the door and escaped. Tang Quan then sent troops to occupy a city gate.
There was still no frontal contact, but the bombing of the catapult cart began to advance into the city. The people in the Liaoxi city began to evacuate from the city gate occupied by the cavalry army. Gongsun Du, the overlord of Liaodong, sat in the city lord's mansion, with his eyes blank and as if he was withered.
"Why? He didn't even give me the chance to fight head-on. Yesterday, Wuhuan's troops were preparing to raid, but they were hit by rocks and retreated thousands of people after they left the city gate. Goguryeo's sticks shouted and knocked Tang Quan to death with one stick. At this time, they actually hurried in a corner and scolded the other party for bullying people. What about the Xianbei guys? What are they doing?"
Gongsun Du asked in a low voice, and after he started a scribe, he whispered:
Chapter completed!
