Chapter five hundred and eighty nine confrontation
The words of the envoy Yuan Shao can be said to be heart-breaking, and Yuan Jiujiu was watching from the side with uneasy intentions. But it was also a fact. Gongsun Zan could not argue, and he became more and more jealous and disgusted with Yuan Shu in his heart.
.
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the tent fell silent, unable to argue.
Seeing this, the envoy Yuan Shao chuckled: "It seems that the general also understands this matter. In this case, the general will not refuse your majesty's invitation to fight!"
"The envoy is indeed sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued. We ask ourselves that he is not an opponent. Indeed, this battle is inevitable for His Majesty, but the same is true for Yuan Benchu! For just such a reason, Mr. Yuan easily decided on this battle. How rash!
Tian Yu said in a deep voice.
"What do you mean, sir?"
"Mr. Yuan has set a three-day decisive battle, and our army has no objection. But since the time has been set by Mr. Yuan, the location should be decided by us. What does the envoy think?" Tian Yu said unceremoniously.
"Haha, the general is so guilty! The time also needs to be set? Is there any harm in fighting the general south of the boundary bridge? A last-ditch battle can also improve the combat effectiveness. Is it because the general is afraid that he will have no way to retreat after defeat? It was the same as last time at the boundary bridge.
Are you afraid of losing in this battle?" Yuan Shao's envoy's eyes flashed with a cold light, he avoided talking about Tian Yu's words, and mocked Gongsun Zan directly.
"It seems that Yuan Benchu is determined to defeat me?" Gongsun Zan said with great interest: "I am a little worried. What I am worried about is that after you are defeated and flee in this decisive battle, I will not be able to pursue you. Since Yuan Benchu has such confidence, I should
What can I do next? I just hope that Yuan Benchu will not regret it in the future."
The messenger smiled softly: "General, there is no need to worry about this. Your Majesty, Zhao, never regrets anything he does. I, Zhao, will definitely win this battle!"
"Yes, I admire your courage very much. I hope you still have such confidence in three days. Okay, let's see you off!" Gongsun Zan sneered.
"No!" The messenger slightly cupped his hands, turned around and left.
Seeing Yuan Shao's envoy leaving, Gongsun Zan suddenly asked: "What is the envoy's name?"
"The surname is Xin and the courtesy name is Zhongzhi."
Watching him slowly leave, Yan Gang asked with some reluctance: "Your Majesty, are you just going to let him go like this?"
"What else?" Gongsun Zan said calmly: "Although this man has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, he is not taken seriously by Yuan Shao, so killing him is useless. If you think he is arrogant and want to cut this man into pieces, then give me a good beating.
Win the next battle, capture him at the last moment, and let him be at your mercy."
"Your Majesty is wise! Yuan Benchu actually chose the battlefield south of the boundary bridge. He is really arrogant. I can't wait to see his ugly appearance when he is defeated and flees!" Guan Jing greeted with a smile.
Gongsun Zan had no complacency on his face, looking at the departing figure in the distance with complex eyes, and murmured in a voice that could only be heard by himself: "Not only Yuan Benzhu, I am afraid that all the princes in the world will view this battle this way. I
Gongsun Zan has won many battles and rarely suffered defeat. He has tens of thousands of cavalry under his command, and can even destroy Xianbei. Why do they still think so highly of Yuan Benchu? Do you really think that I am a bellicose and ignorant mediocrity?"
Just like digging into a bull's horn, the more puzzled and angry Gongsun Zan becomes, the deeper he gets into it. Now defeating Yuan Benchu has almost become his obsession. He wants to prove to everyone that Gongsun Zan is stronger than Yuan Benchu, at least in terms of combat.
After setting the time and place for the decisive battle, both sides quickly set up their arrangements. Yuan Benchu retreated the camp, leaving enough space for Gongsun Zan to set up camp. Gongsun Zan lived up to the agreement and led his army across the boundary bridge south of the boundary bridge.
They were stationed not far away to rest and prepare for the decisive battle. Other means were restrained. Both sides were resting and recuperating for the past two days, trying their best to recharge their batteries and prepare for the decisive battle. The situation around the boundary bridge was calm, but underneath the calm there were turbulent waves.
A fierce battle is about to break out.
...
Three days later, in a plain south of the boundary bridge, the sun was scorching and there were no clouds in the sky.
Two huge armies were split on both sides, facing each other from a distance. On one side were endless soldiers, with neat formations, excellent armor, and flags covering the sky. The continuous army was boundless as far as the eye could see, and they were killing each other silently. On the other side, there were countless soldiers on the front side.
The iron cavalry was also covered with armor, and in the center of the army was an almost entirely white elite cavalry, which was particularly conspicuous among the brown and black horses.
Hundreds of thousands of troops gathered here, and the murderous aura soaring into the sky caused the surrounding clouds to disperse one after another. Even the birds, insects and ants fled from this Shura hell. The air was filled with the aura of murder, but it was silent. In front of the two armies,
Gongsun Zan, who was wearing bright white armor, and Yuan Shao, who was wearing black and gold armor, were not angry but looked very calm. Suddenly, as if they had a tacit understanding, the two of them slowly rode their horses to the center of the two armies at the same time, looking at each other from a distance.
"Yuan Benchu, long time no see!" Gongsun Zan looked at the majestic and expressionless Yuan Benchu opposite and said calmly.
"Yes! Long time no see!" Yuan Shao replied calmly.
"When I see you today, I seem to have seen the leader Yuan in front of Hulao Pass again. Time flies so fast, what a pity." Seeing Yuan Shao in this familiar state again, Gongsun Zan sighed.
"What's the pity?"
"It is a pity that Yuan Benzhu, who was once regarded as a model for the world, will be defeated in my hands today and will never be seen again." Gongsun Zan said from the bottom of his heart.
Yuan Shao smiled slightly: "Gongsun Bogui, you are still so arrogant. Back then I could give you orders on the altar, but today I will defeat you when the two armies are fighting. I am the one you can always look up to.
The presence!"
"Look up?" Gongsun Zan laughed loudly: "Yuan Benchu, you are still living in the glory of the past, living in the glory of your fourth generation and three princes! It is no longer what it was back then. You were the son of the Yuan family, and you were quite prestigious, so you could become
Alliance Leader. Now, there is no difference in status between you and me. What qualifications do you have for me to look up to? Let’s not mention anything else for the moment. As far as leading troops in battle, what qualifications do you, Yuan Benchu, have to compare with me?"
"Gongsun Bogui, you are the one who has been living in the past! You didn't defeat me in the Battle of Jieqiao, and you have lost the chance to defeat me since then. Don't you still understand this?" Yuan Shao
He wasn't angry at all, he smiled.
"Haha, I'm afraid it's not just you, everyone in the world sees it this way, but I just don't believe it. Not to mention that your armies and ours are almost the same now. Even though my military strength is far inferior to yours, I am confident of defeating you. Why don't I have a chance to win this time?
I will prove to the world that I, Gongsun Bogui, is stronger than you, Yuan Benchu, and that I am the lord of Hebei." Gongsun Zan said with a ferocious face.
"Gongsun Bogui, you still haven't seen it through! It's in vain that you once studied under Lu Zhonglang, but you only learned to be brave and ruthless. You are really hopeless. Why did the overlord of Western Chu in the past lose to Han Gaozu? Do you still understand this reason?
Don’t you understand? You are brave if you are brave, but I have many elite soldiers and good futures under my command to deal with you. Your defeat is destined. Today is the day when you Gaixia will be defeated."
