Chapter 405: Yuan Benchu ??has trouble
Several riders walked through the night and came here from the baggage camp in the rear.
The night wind was sobbing across the stretching military camp, and bonfires were burning in the camp, and wailing screams from the wounded military camp were heard from time to time. Occasionally, one or two bodies were carried out and transported away in a carriage. The soldiers sitting by the fire to keep warm or patrol the soldiers looked sad. During the day, forty thousand soldiers surrounded the Xiliang army with more than 20,000 people. It was really frustrating to fight like this.
Several cavalry entered the military camp, among which the old man who was the leader of the horse had long beards and slim face, a slender figure, a sword on his waist, and a brown robe with a dark blue dress. He walked along the way, and he was quite arrogant.
Seeing the expressions of soldiers around him, his brows frowned slightly, and he quickly stepped up. He met a guard in the tent with something left. He asked, "What's the matter with the lord now? Where can Xu You and Guo Tu and the other two be guarded?"
"Go back to the old man, the Chinese medicine craftsman in the army has not yet come out. Military commander Xu and Military commander Guo are waiting outside the tent. In addition, General Yan and General Han are also there..." The guard replied.
Tian Feng nodded with a serious expression, let him go, turned around and headed towards the commander's tent. More and more soldiers were approaching the guards there. Someone saw him coming and took a simple flower and went forward: "Don't drive."
Under his frowning brow, his eyes moved away from the plain silhouette. Tian Feng angrily brushed his sleeves and pushed the general away, strode straight forward with a stern look, "It's just a mess!" He said with a loud voice. Xu You, Guo Tu, Yan Liang and others who were guarding outside the tent in front saw him and hurriedly came forward.
"Don't come here..."
"Come here, just see what you are doing. The lord's injury is unknown. How can he wear plain cloth in the army to make the soldiers feel restless!!!" The figure who strode closes quickly and scolds the two without stopping, "...... As a military strategist, you two cannot escape the blame even if you lose today. Why are you still making trouble at this moment?"
Guo Tu brushed his cuffs, carried his hands on his back, turned his body to look at him, "Don't be in the army, so naturally I don't know the whole story. How can I blame me as soon as I meet?"
"What the military advisor said is right." Yan Liang's eyes were red, he clenched his fists and stepped forward for half a step, baring his teeth: "If Lu Bu hadn't suddenly entered the battlefield and led the camp to disrupt the military formation, how could he have been defeated!"
"That should be your responsibility!!" Tian Feng's voice rose.
"Okay OK, everyone will say less." Xu You stretched out his hand and stopped him in the middle, bowed to the indignant old man, "Don't blame me, we let the army be in a plain silly manner. This is a plan to lead Xu Rong to attack the camp..."
"No need to say more." Tian Feng took two steps towards the curtain and waved his hand to interrupt: "Xu Rong used his troops with steadfastness and was a long-time general on the battlefield. Even if he could deceive him in this matter, he would never attack at this time."
Next to him, Guo Tu wanted to refute, but the curtain suddenly opened, and someone walked out with the doctor box in his arms. Guo Tu and Xu You and the others rushed forward and asked: "Is the lord in good health?"
The doctor bowed to everyone and bowed: "The old wounds of the lord who was angry with Gongsun Zhiqi have not been cured. In recent years, he has finally stabilized. Today, he is very angry during the day, and the old disease has added new injuries. Although it is no longer hindered, he cannot continue to lead the army to conquer. Otherwise, the consequences will not be guaranteed."
Everyone was silent for a while, Tian Feng looked at the stroking curtain, "Has the lord woke up?"
"I wake up because I wake up, but don't talk to the lord for a long time, so you must not use words to stimulate it." The doctor told me repeatedly and bowed and left: "I will go and boil the medicine first."
When people walked away, Tian Feng turned his face and glanced at Guo and Xu, "After seeing the lord, I will argue with you again!" After saying that, he brushed his sleeves and lifted the curtain and walked in. Guo Tu and Xu You looked at each other, his face was not good-looking, and then he walked into the big tent. Inside, Tian Feng's voice had already sounded.
".........Lord, the three armies went north to Youzhou and were blocked. It should be a time to change direction and go back to Yecheng to calm the storm. It has been a month since the Liaodong incident. How fast horses there should be on the road. Besides, the journey is long. Even if the battle is over, the battle may have been completed. The most urgent task is to maintain stability in Jizhou."
After all, Tian Feng is nearly fifty years old and is used to being straightforward in human nature. Although he is only conscientious and highly admired by the people below, the superiors feel uncomfortable. On the couch opposite him, Yuan Shao's face was gray and his eyes were covered with bloodshot. He thought he had not yet come back to his senses from the blow, and when he heard his words, he aroused his worries and his cheeks suddenly clenched.
"...My son's life is so miserable. When he was young, he was kidnapped by Gongsun Zhi for several months. After suffering hardships, I, a father, felt uncomfortable and wanted to marry the most beautiful daughter of the Zhen family to him as compensation. Unexpectedly, he even kidnapped Zhen Mi and all of them. Gongsun Zhi is too hateful... I really can't swallow this tone. I can't beat him openly, so I'll be so sinister..."
The footsteps in the tent left softly, Guo Tu whispered forward and nodded in agreement: "The lord is right. Gongsun Zhi's method comes regardless of whether it is open or dark. He cannot deal with him in ordinary ways. Tu just discussed with Ziyuan. It is better to use the lord's lord to fall asleep and lie on the bed, and lead Xu Rong and Lu Bu to attack the camp. Let's catch the turtle in a jar."
When he said something, Yuan Shao's eyes lit up slightly, rubbed his back and stretched his neck, but looked at Tian Feng, "Yuan Hao, what do you think of this plan?"
Tian Feng pursed his lower lip tightly, hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head and said, "Victory and defeat are common in military affairs. Don't take it seriously, but if you order the entire army to be simple, it will also have a significant blow to morale. Xu Rong may not be fooled. This person has experienced Dong Zhuo and defeated Sun Jian and Cao Cao in a dignified manner. He can be called a veteran on the battlefield."
He paused, glanced at Guo Tu who was bowing his head beside him, and slowly put down his affirmative words: "...he would never be fooled."
"Yuan Hao, you're overestimating Xu Rong. His morale must be bloated at this moment. Once you know that I'm critically ill, how could you not come?" Yuan Shao narrowed his eyes, and his head suddenly leaned against the wooden pillow, and the anger in his eyes was not gone.
"I will never come!" The voice was still affirming.
Outside the tent, footsteps sounded, and soon, the guards reported outside: "Report to the lord, the scout came to report that the Xiliang army abandoned Dazhai, traveled lightly, retreated to the mountains, and headed towards Wuruan Pass."
"...." Everyone in the tent looked at each other silently.
Tian Feng sighed slightly and explained: "Feng heard the urgency of the war in the rear, and saw Xu Rong following and falling into the trap set by the Duke, he felt something was strange. When the news of Yecheng came, he realized that Xu Rong's Xiliang army was just a cover. He knew that he had to entangle the lord even though he was trapped. In addition to delaying the war situation in Liaodong, his other intention was obviously to wait for the news that Mr. Xi in Yecheng would tie up."
"Who is planning?" Xu You's face was covered with sweat and he turned to the topic: "... Gongsun Zhi is very cruel, but this arrangement would never be done by others."
Next to him, Guo Tu nodded and agreed. Before he could speak, Yuan Shao clenched his fist and smashed it on the wood on the couch, then raised his fingers and shivered weakly.
"It's such a plot... Liaodong can't fight. When I go back to Yecheng, my son was kidnapped. After this trip, nothing happened, and it only cost many soldiers' lives!"
Tian Feng bowed: "There is also General Qu Yi."
When Yuan Shao heard this name, he turned his head and looked ugly, "That's his own fault. Don't mention this person again in the future, Yan Liang!"
"The last one is here!" The tall figure behind stepped forward.
"Teach people to secretly trick the old troops in the first tribe out of the camp, killing them all to prevent future troubles." Yuan Shao took a deep breath, lay down again, and looked straight at the stroking tent for a moment, his voice rippled: "Tell me the order, retreat to Yecheng."
The night wind whistled, covering up the sound.
In the dark color, the torches extended in the mountains, floating around the Gongsun and Xu flags, the army had already set off and turned back to Wuruan Pass. The infantry and horse teams were following each other, supporting each other, the broken armor and the weapons in the gap had a depressing atmosphere, but the momentum of the entire march still had a pride that was enough to make people intimidate.
Further ahead, the scout came back from the horse and arrived at the middle commander's banner. After hearing this, Xu Rong looked at the figure riding on the fiery red horse, "Zhang He is coming to this side, trying to intercept it."
At one moment, the mighty figure opened his eyes, carried a horse with a carriage, and a team of Xiliang Iron Cavalry and an elite infantryman rushed forward, with a loud voice spreading through the night.
"The army will move forward straight, and I will meet him."
Gao Shun, who was lying on the horse's back and was covered in bandages, smiled.
...
In the night, the air ahead burst into battle and attacked Jin Ming, and the painting halberd was swung and slashed down.
Soon after, the scattered like a tide and blood were stirred up in the foothills.
