Invincible from the beginning of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 265 Chasing and fleeing, killing Gongsun Yue

Seeing that nothing could be done, Gongsun Zan ordered the withdrawal of troops.

But Zhang Fei's cavalry rushed forward and intercepted some of them.

Zhang Ming and Xu Huang followed closely, and Yan Rou persuaded some people to surrender.

Defeated.

Gongsun Zan could only retreat.

He wanted to retreat into the city and stand firm, but on the way, he found that there were not many troops following him, less than 1.

"Go, go south."

It is very unwise for such people to enter the city. They may be trapped in the city by Zhang Ming, lose contact with the south, and the entire power will be in turmoil.

Thanks to his decisiveness, otherwise Zhang Ming would have trapped Gongsun Zan, sent his army to support him, and ambushed him halfway.

Gongsun Zan escaped, but Zhang Ming was unable to pursue him for the time being, because there were still many scattered troops on the battlefield that he needed to deal with.

Zhang Ming and Xu Huang besieged some people, while Yan Rou continued to persuade them to surrender.

It took more than three hours from the start of the fight in the morning to the end.

Zhang Ming first led some people to take over the city.

He was in no hurry to pursue.

In the afternoon, the rectification was completed.

Zhang Ming ordered Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to lead the cavalry to pursue Gongsun Zan.

But Zhang Ming entered the city and ordered Yan Rou to temporarily take over Shanggu County.

"General Protector, about [-] prisoners will be captured in this battle. Please show me how to arrange them."

"Let my people choose soldiers. Our army has strict requirements. 2 people can be selected as much as they can. The rest will be settled directly and distributed to the plowing fields."

2 people, Zhang Ming estimated, a few thousand people can be selected, and the rest cannot be simply released. Now a new area is occupied, and there is a lot of land.

Zhang Ming helped stabilize the situation, and then he also led the remaining infantry to chase south.

Gongsun Zan was very regretful, the win or loss was at odds of five or five, but Yan Rou made them collapse quickly.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei chased south.

Zhang Ming also set off with [-] infantry at night.

Shanggu County, which Gongsun Zan had just acquired, was lost not long after.

The army also lost most of it.

Gongsun Zan was so angry that he was forced by Zhang Ming to abandon Shanggu County, and there were still enemies chasing behind him.

I can't wait for Gongsun Zan to turn around and fight back.

But he knew he couldn't.

Gongsun Zan continued to run for more than a day and entered Fanyang County.

As soon as he entered Fanyang County, Gongsun Zan hastily ordered to stop advancing.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

A scout came to report just now, and Gongsun Zan stopped marching after receiving a letter. Something must have happened.

Gongsun Zan was silent for a while and said to Gongsun Fan: "Xi Zhicai and Zhao Yun's [-] troops are nowhere to be found, and they suspect they are ambushing ahead."

Everyone became serious.

If Zhao Yun and the others knew that Gongsun Zan had failed and escaped, they would definitely send troops to pursue him.

So, now they not only yell at the enemy from behind, but also have enemies in front.

Yan Gang, Gongsun Zan's general, said: "My lord, the road on the left leads to the county town. The opponent is likely to ambush there. The road on the right can go directly south. Why don't we go directly to Qingzhou?"

Gongsun Zan knew that Dai Commandery could not be defended either. After they went south, Dai Commandery would be unguarded, and Zhang Ming could easily take over.

Gongsun Zan hesitated, he had more than 1 troops left.

"Okay, take this path to the right."

"Order the scouts to investigate first."

"Order, guard Fanyang County."

Gongsun Zan sent many scouts.

And half an hour later, Gongsun Zan and the others continued to set off, heading for the road on the right.

Fast forward all the way.

Another day gone.

"Report."

The scouts ahead report.

Gongsun Zan reined in his horse, and the whole army came to a halt slowly.

The scout ran over and immediately reported: "General, we found traces of the enemy ahead, and suspected an ambush."

"Explore again."

Gongsun Zan became serious. There was actually an ambush ahead. Could it be that their previous judgment was wrong.

Yes, their judgment was wrong, or Gongsun Zan was fooled.

That scout was sent by Xi Zhicai.

Xi Zhicai was very clever, and informed Gongsun Zan that they were missing, but did not explain where they were going.

If Gongsun Zan was told where they were ambushing, Gongsun Zan would definitely become suspicious and send someone to investigate carefully.

But it's just a simple news, the news is true, and who would use such news to deceive him.

As a result, such a news deceived Gongsun Zan, making them judge that Xi Zhicai and the others were lying in ambush on another road.

And this road leads to Qingzhou, and it is not easy to ambush, so Gongsun Zan chose this road.

It just so happened that Xi Zhicai and the others were ambushing ahead.

It's an ambush, but it's not really considered an ambush. Xi Zhicai and his generals lined up and blocked the road.

"Military Master, you guessed it, why don't we lie in ambush, but set up an army formation on the road and wait for Gongsun Zan."

Zhao Yun admires Xi Zhicai, who really can make Gongsun Zan go this way.

Xi Zhicai said relaxedly with his hands behind his back: "There are not many places to ambush along the way, and Gongsun Zan will definitely send more scouts. It's not easy to ambush, so it's better to set up an army formation."

"Gongsun Zan will never be able to charge through the army formation, so he must be in a dilemma now, because we have already notified Yun Chang and the others that we are going to pursue this way."

At this time, Gongsun Zan was really in a difficult situation, should he go back?

There are pursuers behind, and they are already very close at this time. If they delay here, they will be overtaken soon.

"Damn."

Gongsun Zan was blocked halfway at this time.

Everyone looked at Gongsun Zan.

"My lord, after I stay here, you take people along the path." Yan Gang said.

Yan Gang wanted to stand up and take responsibility, after all, he was the one who suggested this path first.

"No, before that time, the scouts quickly found out where the pursuers were."

"Also, explore the surrounding paths immediately."

The army stopped.

The atmosphere of fear is quietly spreading.

Some of these troops escaped from the dead, and at this time there were wolves before and tigers behind.

"Report, the pursuers are more than 30 miles away."

More than 30 miles, if you run wildly, you will reach it in less than half an hour, if you slow down and save horsepower, you can reach it within an hour.

There is not much time left for them.

"My lord, I'll stay and finish, you guys go away."

Yan Gang asked again.

Gongsun Zan still disagreed.

The pursuers have already arrived, and they don't have much time.

"Gongsun Yue, you lead an army of [-] to stop them, and we retreat by the path."

Yan Gang was his general, and the decision was made by Gongsun Zan.

Yan Gang just suggested that Gongsun Zan take this path. It is of course possible to push him to take charge, but this will chill the hearts of his subordinates.

Therefore, Gongsun Zan let his brother Gongsun Yue stay, so there is no problem.

"yes, Sir."

Gongsun Yue stayed behind, and they quickly left from the side path.

Soon, Guan Yu arrived.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei attacked directly.

The two of them are like two fierce tigers, and after entering the flock, they will fight at full strength.

The two created a storm.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were too fierce, Gongsun Yue didn't hold on for long, and immediately collapsed.

When Gongsun Yue was about to escape, Zhang Fei pierced through his back heart with a move.
