Abnormal Three Kingdoms

Chapter 584
Jizhou, Qinghe State, Ganling.

"With the news that the lord failed to retake Yecheng, the morale of our army has dropped a lot. Old general, is there any hope for us to continue to guard here?" Han Juzi sent a battle report to Han Qiong, Looking at Han Qiongdao.

Yuan Shao lost again and again, and now the generals in Jizhou don't talk about the people, but they, the generals in the army, have no hope of winning this battle, and even many people in the army have the intention of defecting to the enemy.

"I'll wait here to keep the north and the south unblocked!" Han Qiong pointed to the map and said, "Cao Ren and Xia Houyuan have 80,000 people and horses, and I have nearly 40,000 people here, which is a 120,000 army, plus the lord's remaining troops." The strength of the army is 150,000, which may not be without the power to fight, but if we abandon this place, then Cao Ren and Xia Houyuan will become a lone army, and at the same time, the lord will have no soldiers to transfer."

"Then why not join forces and fight Chu Nan to the death?" Han Juzi asked.

"I'm afraid this is what Chu Nan wants to see the most." Han Qiong sighed and said, "Although I don't want to admit it, the soldiers and horses under Chu Nan's command are indeed elite. Block that Chu Nan, but if you go out to fight, judging from the previous battle between the lord Princess Li and Chu Nan's main force, you will win less and lose more."

"General, if this stalemate continues, our army will be defeated?" Han Juzi asked puzzled.

"If I can get rid of Gao Shun's constraints, I can return to help. Xia Houyuan and Zhang Liao are the closest in strength, and both sides are attacking and defending each other. If our army can attack Zhang Liao from the flanks and defeat Zhang Liao from the flank, this situation will be solved. !" Han Qiong pointed to the map and sighed: "It's a pity that Gao Shun is not easy to deal with. The eight hundred camps are really fierce. Even Ju Yi's first ascended army back then may not be as powerful as him."

These days, Japan and Han Qiong were beaten by Gao Shun to lose the city and land. Although there are reasons for stretching the front line, they really can't fight. Not only is it difficult to fall into the camp, but the standard of ordinary soldiers is also higher than that of the Jizhou army. If you don't use this method, Han Qiong knew he would lose.

That's why he continued to lengthen the battle line, stretched Gaoshun's logistics supply line, and then sent troops to harass the grain road behind him, shaking his army's morale.

Now that Gao Shun stays in the plain instead of continuing to take the initiative to attack, he is obviously aware of Han Qiong's plan and is thinking of a way to defeat the enemy, and Han Qiong can take advantage of this opportunity to think about how to get rid of Gao Shun and break the current deadlock .

As long as the predicament on Xiahouyuan's side is resolved, with the current strength of both sides, it may not be impossible to reverse the unfavorable situation for Yuan Shao.

Han Juzi looked at the map and nodded silently. Just as he was about to say something, he saw a general galloping in and said to Han Qiong, "General, urgent report from Guantao!"

"Guantao?" Han Qiong frowned and said, "Talk!"

There should be no enemies in the Guantao area, so what will happen?

"Yesterday a group of troops raided Guantao, and the defender of Guantao was defeated and fled. Now Guantao has been captured by the enemy!" the general bowed.

"Do you know who is leading the army?" Han Qiong asked with a slight change of expression.

"From the news sent by Guantao's general, the enemy general is considered to be a veteran, and the troops he leads are not dressed in the Chunan army, but more like the Black Mountain army."

"Chunan?" Han Juzi exclaimed.

"It won't be Chu Nan." Han Qiong shook his head: "The importance of Yecheng is extraordinary. Even if he defeats the lord, he can't come here in person at this time. Otherwise, once Yecheng falls, it will have a great impact on Chunan. Not so unwise!"

"In the Chu Nan Army, if you are called a veteran, you should be the Huang Zhong who defeated General Zhang Yun." Han Juzi thought for a while.

"En." Han Qiong nodded, thinking of Zhang Yun, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed. He didn't understand why Yuan Shao did such a thing at this time.

"It should be this person." Han Qiong adjusted his mood, looked at Han Juzi and said: "This person is superb in martial arts, and ordinary soldiers are difficult to defeat, but Guantao has to be rescued, otherwise our army will be cut off. Lead the troops to meet him, and you lead the army to continue the confrontation. If Na Gaoshun comes to attack, defend it if you can. If you can't defend this place, you will retreat to Guangzong. "

"General, this man is extremely powerful in martial arts." Han Juzi said worriedly.

"No matter how strong he is, he is no more than an old pawn. Besides, he is only leading the black mountain army. If Chu Nan has enough troops to guard Yecheng, he must not lead many troops. I will lead 5000 people to defeat this thief!" Han Joan smiled proudly, although he is also a veteran, can ordinary veterans compare with him?
"Always be careful. If something happens to the general at this time, no one in our army can compete with Chu Nan!" Han Juzi nodded.

At present, Han Qiong recruited generals, temporarily handed over the military affairs here to Han Juzi, and led five thousand soldiers and horses to go straight to Guantao.

On the city tower, looking at the direction in which Han Qiong was going, Han Juzi sighed, can Jizhou really hold on?Although Han Qiong is very confident, Han Juzi really has no confidence now.

Not only because the enemy was strong and had several defeats, what happened to Zhang Yun made Han Juzi somewhat unhappy. Although he had no friendship with Zhang Yun, he was after all the only remaining general under Yuan Shao's command, so he was forced to leave because of rumors. Even he can see that this is the self-destructing Great Wall, why can't Yuan Shao see it?
No matter what the reason is, this move has shaken the morale of the army, and there are not a few people who think like Han Juzi.

Can a Han Qiong really turn the tide of the battle on this battlefield where there are many warriors?
Not long after Han Qiong left, Han Juzi was about to take a rest, when suddenly he saw a schoolboy rushing over and said to Han Juzi, "General, Gao Shun led his troops to kill here!"

"Gao Shun? Why now?" Han Juzi stood up quickly with a surprised expression on his face.

Not long after Han Qiong left, Gao came to kill him by the way. If it was a coincidence, it would be too coincidental. If it was calculated in advance, then...

Han Juzi didn't dare to think about it anymore, he got up immediately, and led the small school all the way to the top of the city, just when he saw Gao Shun's army had already set up a battle formation outside the city.

"Quickly, call the Confucianists in the city!" Han Juzi hurriedly ordered people to call all the Confucianists in the city to maintain the green spirit of the city.

Without Han Qiong, Han Juzi has no confidence in facing Gao Shun.

While talking, Gao Shun's side had already begun to attack the city. The siege force was divided into eight groups, each with 800 people. Han Juzi knew that one of the eight groups was trapped in the camp. Gao Shun had attacked the city like this before. Yes, eight hundred trapped camps are mixed in the siege army. I don't know which one is the trapped camp, and the attack power of the trapped camp is much stronger than ordinary troops. It can explode with terrifying combat power, which is even more terrifying than soldiers who have been blessed with battle formations.

The eight troops approached quickly with the ladders, and waves of arrows fell from the top of the city, but they couldn't break the opponent's battle formation. This is also the most terrifying aspect of Gao Shun's tactics.

Even if it is not the main force, if the battle formation has not been cut off, it is difficult to simply use the battle formation to break through the opponent before it approaches the city wall.

With years of experience in leading the army, Han Qiong can tell which camp is trapped in the details, but Han Juzi obviously does not have this ability. Can see through which one is the main force of the camp.

The opponent started to attack the city, and the prepared kerosene burned a section of the ladder, so many siege soldiers had to retreat, but a group of men and horses were so brave that they jumped up on the burning ladder.

This one is it!

Looking at this scene, Han Juzi finally found the trapped camp, but it was too late. The soldiers of the trapped camp had already rushed to the city wall. Cutting, in the past, Han Qiong used to gather superior forces and use people to squeeze out the trapped camp, but now Han Juzi hadn't been able to judge which camp was trapped before, so naturally he couldn't respond immediately like Han Qiong. After a face-to-face meeting, the trapped camp seized the heel at the top of the city.

Finished!

The moment the trapped camp rushed to the city wall, Han Juzi knew it was over. As long as the trapped camp attacked the city wall, it would basically be impossible to defend.

Soldiers from the Jizhou Army came rushing in, but the soldiers of the trapped camp who rushed to the city wall did not fight immediately. Instead, three people formed a small formation, and three small formations formed a large formation to occupy a section of the city wall. The soldiers stand in front, and the soldiers holding long knives at the back take the opportunity to slash forward. It is a very simple strategy, but it is precisely because of its simplicity that it is more difficult to break.

The soldiers of the Jizhou army who came up to besiege not only failed to drive the opponent down, but were killed by the opponent and retreated steadily. After a while, the entire city wall was captured by the trapped camp.

Under the cover of the trapped camp, the soldiers who were attacking the city quickly rushed to the top of the city and began to fight with the defenders.

This time the city was broken faster than ever before, and Han Juzi didn't care about regrets. When the trapped camp flooded the city, he had already started to prepare to retreat. Didn't Han Qiong say that there is no need to defend to the death? If he couldn't help it, he retreated to Guangzong, as long as he guarded Guangzong himself, and waited for General Han Qiong to come back.

The soldiers of the trapped camp who attacked the top of the city did not pursue and kill them, but quickly seized the important places in the city and completely occupied the city.

Han Juzi led the defeated army out of the city, and was about to go to Guangzong, but saw a group of people blocking the way ahead. The leader was a general, holding a three-pointed two-edged knife, who seemed to have been waiting here a long time ago, but he had gone away in secret He got out of shape, and now he saw them fleeing, so he showed up.

Ji Ling! ?
When Han Juzi saw this person, his heart sank slowly.

As Gao Shun's lieutenant general, Ji Ling performed equally well in this battle. He even fought against Han Qiong several times, although he was defeated but not defeated. Han Qiong also bluntly said that he could not completely defeat Ji Ling.

Seeing Ji Ling here at this moment, Han Juzi didn't understand that they had been tricked. From Han Qiong's departure to Gao Shun's siege to Ji Ling blocking the way, the opponent's purpose was obviously to completely eat their team.

"The thief general, don't dismount and accept the surrender!" Ji Ling yelled, and before Han Juzi could respond, he had already launched a charge against the rout of Jizhou...
