"Yes, if I don't avenge this revenge, I will have trouble sleeping and eating, and I won't be able to comfort my dead brother."
Gongsun Dong did the same. He pulled out the steel knife from his waist and cut the table in front of him into two halves.
"Adong, you immediately go to Youbeiping with my military order and transfer the 10,000 cavalry stationed in Wuwen to Hejian County. I will attack Lecheng County again."
Hearing Gongsun Dong's words, Gongsun Zan became even more angry. Yes, he brought 10,000 Youzhou men and lost them all. The most important thing is that he got nothing. How could he go to see the elders in Peiping?
"Lord, calm down, calm down."
Yan Gang couldn't help but be horrified when he heard that Gongsun Zan wanted to transfer the cavalry stationed in Wuzhong County southward.
Where is Wujing? It is his strategic military location and the first line of defense for You Beiping. If the soldiers and horses there are transferred away, once Liu Yu launches an attack, the base camp of You Beiping will be in danger of being besieged.
"Yan Gang, how can I calm down? Countless enemies have died at the hands of Gongsun Zan since I joined the army. I have attacked countless counties and villages. When have I ever encountered such a defeat?"
Looking at Yan Gang, Gongsun Zan's eyes widened.
"Sir, once the cavalry in Wuzhong County is transferred, have you ever thought about the consequences?"
Although Gongsun Zan was furious, Yan Gang had to bite the bullet and go up.
"What are the consequences? Does Mr. Liu Yu really dare to attack You Beiping? Lend him ten courages."
Gongsun Zan is not stupid, he knows the importance of endlessness, and Liu Yu is weak in nature. Although he suppresses himself, he does not dare to go too far.
"Sir, Liu Yu is weak, but he has Wei You, Tian Chou and others under his command. Seeing that You Beiping is empty, they will inevitably not slander and let him attack.
Moreover, our enemies are not only Liu Yu, the Wuhuan and Xianbei people are also big enemies. The most important thing is that if Yuan Shu carries out his plan of alienating us, Beiping will be in danger."
Yan Gang's analysis was so sound that even though Gongsun Zan was extremely angry, he had to nod his head and admit that it was reasonable.
"Then what do you think we should do now? If I left in such a dejected manner, wouldn't the world laugh at me, Gongsun Zan, for being a bastard?"
Although Gongsun Zan admitted that Yan Gang's words were reasonable, he still couldn't swallow this breath.
"My lord, a gentleman will not judge the merits of a moment. The current situation is that we no longer have the ability to attack successfully. Rather than waste time here, it is better to march eastward to join forces with General Gongsun Yue and attack Bohai County with all our strength."
Yan Gang looked at Kan Yu. He originally planned to conquer Hejian and Bohai counties, but now it seems that he can only retreat and attack Bohai directly.
"Brother, do you really want to retreat from Bohai?"
After listening to Yan Gang's words, Gongsun Dong looked reluctant.
"My lord, it is easy for a man to die, but it is difficult to retreat. Now as long as we can capture Bohai County in our eastward march, our southward journey will be considered a success."
Yan Gang knelt down on one knee. He was really afraid that Gongsun Zan's bad temper would come up and he would really mobilize his troops to fight successfully.
"That's all, that's all. This time, my command was wrong. I can't make the same mistake twice. The whole army will rest tonight and rush to Bohai County tomorrow."
"promise."
"promise."
Yan Gang breathed a sigh of relief, and Gongsun Dong nodded helplessly.
Nanpi County is not far from Chengping County, only a hundred miles away. Zheng Feng set off immediately after receiving Yan Liang's military order. Four thousand people in horse-drawn carriages arrived at their destination in one day.
Wen Chou couldn't help but be overjoyed when he received the news that Zheng Feng came with four thousand elites to support him. Although he took over the defense of the entire Bohai County, Gongsun Yue's offensive was swift and fierce.
When he arrived, he had already captured Zhangwu, Gaocheng and Rao'an counties. If Fuyang and Chonghe counties were captured again, then most of the eight Bohai counties would be in Gongsun Zan's hands.
Wen Chou split up the Second Militia and stationed 5,000 men in each of Chonghe and Fuyang counties to defend Gongsun Yue.
This resulted in the fact that he only had 10,000 soldiers and horses in his hands. Even with Nanpi county soldiers, the number was only more than 13,000. If the enemy did not attack Fuyang and Chonghe and attacked Nanpi with all their strength, it would be difficult for him to defeat Nanpi.
.
"Zheng Feng, what will you do if you come here?"
Although he lacked soldiers and horses, Wen Chou was still worried about Yan Liang.
"Sir, don't worry. General Yan Liang defeated Gongsun Zan in the Battle of Lecheng. Gongsun Zan's 7,000 cavalry left only 2,000 cavalry and retreated from Lecheng. It was because he was worried that Gongsun Zan would come to Bohai County, so the general ordered me to rush to Nanpi's aid at night.
"
Since Zheng Feng was able to come here, he naturally knew about Yan Liang's achievements. When Wen Chou asked the question, he quickly answered and told him not to worry.
"Okay, brother, this battle was fought beautifully. In that case, you will be under my command for the time being and listen to my dispatches."
"promise."
After obtaining 4,000 elite Polu troops, Wen Chou had another 20,000 troops and horses. Although there were only 14,000 elite troops, it was more than enough to face 20,000 Gongsun Zan's army.
"Sir, after investigation, five thousand soldiers and horses were stationed in Fuyang County. The flag was raised by Wen. They should be the elite led by Wen Chou."
Gongsun Yue had just captured Rao'an when a scout knelt down beside him and reported the investigation information to him.
"Fuyang has added five thousand elites, what about the coincidence?"
Gongsun Yue stood up and came to Kanyu. In fact, he was seeking a steady victory this time, relying on his absolute military superiority to seize the county seat. Even with such an offensive, Zhangwu, Gaocheng and Rao'an counties had become his spoils of war.
"Report, five thousand soldiers and horses have been stationed in Chonghe County, with the banner Wen Chou. It is speculated that they are the elite under Wen Chou's command."
Just when Gongsun Yue was questioning, another scout rushed to his side and reported the military situation to him.
"There are also five thousand troops stationed in Coincidence? How many people does Wen Chou still have in his hands?"
The more Gongsun looked at Kanyu, the more Nanpi, the seat of Bohai County, became bigger and bigger in his eyes.
"General, there are troops stationed in both counties. It will be difficult to fight next."
A general came to Gongsun Yue and spoke to him with a frown.
"Axu, ten thousand soldiers and horses have been stationed in these two counties. How many chess pieces does Wen Chou still have?"
Gongsun Yue looked at his nephew Gongsun Xu, his eyes filled with expectation.
Gongsun Xu is the third generation of Gongsun Zan's family. He is a heroic man and has outstanding fighting power. What's even more rare is that he is also very motivated and is always learning and making progress.
"According to Tanma Lai, Wen Chou sent 20,000 troops this time, which is the most elite militia group under Yuan Shu's command. Now that 10,000 people have been sent, Wen Chou still has about 10,000 troops.
I suggest that we send out a small group of soldiers and horses, make a big noise, and pretend to attack Chonghe and Fuyang counties.
In this case, one is to see if the enemies of Nanpi can be mobilized, and the other is to tie up the soldiers and horses in these two counties so that they dare not move out, and then gather the main force to march westward and take Nanpi County directly."
Gongsun Xu looked at Kan Yu, and an idea appeared in his mind, an idea of the battlefield.
"Axu, have you ever thought about the consequences if we use all our strength to attack Nanpi and he orders the mobilization of soldiers and horses from the two counties to return reinforcements, and then cooperates with the defenders in Nanpi to attack from both front and rear?"
