Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 754
Bingzhou Mu and Yuan Shao's nephew Gao Gan stood on a small hill in the camp, looking at the Han Dynasty barracks to the west.

At this time, the sun was setting and the clouds were engulfing the sky. Those clouds fluttered like pieces of scales, with dragons hiding and tigers lying in the middle, and there were thousands of murderous auras.Gao Gan couldn't help shivering: he was born in a famous family, and he had a lot of bad luck as a young man. After finding Yuan Shao, he was considered to have ushered in the spring of his life.But it was the memory of the troubled times when he was young that made him work hard, study scriptures and war strategies, and become the leading general today.

Senior cadres have always treated these techniques of watching the clouds and watching the atmosphere as a matter of general chatter.But today, he felt uneasy all the time, as if something big was about to happen.

Looking at the Han camp again, Gao Gan saw that the Han army's camps were endless, and the scale was several times larger than his own camp.However, the high-ranking officials didn't care too much about this, because apart from Li Yan's five-featured army and Xu Rong's elite soldiers from the Northern Army, the rest were nothing but black mountain bandits.

Those thieves were fine in guerrilla warfare in the mountains, but they were nothing more than a mob when they really fought positional warfare with their own troops.In the past two months of confrontation, the Han army has never launched an attack, but the scale has not been large, and the black mountain bandits are the main body, so they have not achieved much effect.

But here lies the strangeness: at the beginning, those Black Mountain bandits didn't understand military discipline, and they rushed in chaos, and when they encountered their own troops, they were almost defeated at the touch of a touch, so they were nothing to be afraid of.But later, the men and horses encountered gradually became stronger, and the men were still those black mountain bandits.A few days ago, my trilogy encountered Zhang Yan's subordinates. After a fierce battle for half a day, I suffered heavy losses and almost drew with the opponent.

Is it because I can't fight myself?
joke.

This army was indeed not as good as Qu Yi's pioneers, but he was proficient in commanding troops and formations, and he had already built them into an iron-blooded army.

The only but terrifying explanation is... Is the Han army training with its own troops?

Gao Gan shook his head severely, the thought made him feel ridiculous.However, in the past two months, it is an undeniable fact that the opponent's combat power has become stronger and stronger.Moreover, Gao Gan was also keenly aware that such a change was not due to the enhancement of the black mountain bandits' personal skills, but because these black bandits were more and more like regular troops.

This discovery made Gao Gan even more disturbed: Xu Rong is a veteran of the Han Dynasty, and he will never turn the Black Mountain bandits into an orderly army for no reason.Unless, he needs the black bandits to be able to launch a regular army to complete the event.

But what exactly was that incident, Gao Gan couldn't figure it out.However, when the camp started to riot, Gao Gan's heart sank to the bottom of the valley: he saw some soldiers who had fled into the camp, all wearing Yuan Jun's ocher military uniforms, obviously all soldiers from the front line of Guandu.

When Gao Gan rushed to the gate of the camp on horseback, he heard those rout soldiers saying something in horror: "It's over, it's all over, our food and grass were burned by the Han-Cao coalition forces! General Gao Lan and General Chun Yuqiong also We took refuge in the Han Dynasty, and many brothers also defected to the past, and now the Han-Cao coalition forces are crossing the Yellow River with all their strength, chasing and killing us frantically!"

When Gao Lan heard the news, his vision went dark, and he finally understood why he was restless these days.But as the general in charge of the first battalion, he still galloped forward quickly, killed the shouting guy with a single spear, and shouted: "Fake battle reports to shake the morale of the army, these thieves must be the Han army!" Kill all of my spies!"

"General, they..." The soldiers at the gate of the camp looked at the scene in front of them in shock, and they were a little stupefied: these soldiers spoke with a Hebei accent, and some of them even thought they looked familiar, so they didn't look like they were impersonating the Han army.

"What? Are you going to disobey the military order?!" Gao Lan waved, and the guards behind him surrounded him heavily.This posture made the soldiers at the camp gate immediately silence, and let the guards execute these robed Ze who managed to escape the catastrophe like chopping melons and vegetables.

"Anyone who dares to spread rumors will be killed without mercy!" Gao Lan emphasized this point again before leaving.

But even if he was very cold and tough in front of the soldiers, he dealt with it very decisively.But after returning to the tent, Gao Lan slumped on the ground, his eyes glazed over: Why, how is it possible? ...A whole army of [-] was defeated by Han Cao's coalition army of less than [-]? !
Gao Lan is not a fool, of course he knows that those soldiers just now are not pretending, and he also knows that the news they said is true.But such news was so shocking that he couldn't accept it for a while.After all, some time ago, he got the news that Yuan Jun was completely suppressing the Han-Cao coalition forces.Even the latest news is that the two armies are confronting each other.

Then, all of a sudden, hundreds of thousands of troops dispersed like a cloud of smoke?
Gao Lan pinched his thigh fiercely, so that he could recover from such a shock: the situation is dangerous now, and it is not the time to ask why the front line was defeated.He needs a decision, a real decisive decision!

The broken soldiers will continue to flee here, and it is impossible for him to kill all the broken soldiers no matter what.In time, the soldiers of the whole battalion will know what happened on the front line.Then I can imagine with my toes that this camp will fall into commotion and chaos.If I do nothing, I will definitely be trapped here to death!

withdraw!It must be withdrawn!

This idea immediately came to Gao Lan's mind, and he almost crawled to the back of the desk, looking at the hanging animal skin map.The name of the ancient city of Chaoge immediately entered his eyes, making him immediately understand where he retreated.

Chaoge is very close to Yecheng, and it is connected to Huguan in the north. It is the best place for chaos and corruption.The self-army can continue to defend the Han army when it advances there, and it can also rely on the ancient city to hold on when it retreats.Maybe at this time, we can still cope with the chaotic army that is in chaos...

Thinking of this, Gao Gan immediately called people into the account, and issued a military order: "Immediately pull out the camp and set up the camp, and enter Chaoge!" After the order was issued, Gao Gan realized that he had forgotten the Han army in the west, but after thinking for a while, he still I can only add one sentence: "For the time being, there is no need to evacuate the camp immediately, you should inform first, and I will wait for the second watch before moving."

On this day, the Han army was very quiet and did not launch any attacks.But Gao Gan was extremely restless from dusk to the second watch, for fear that the Han army would suddenly attack at night; and at the second watch, Gao Gan's heart was raised in his throat. Many sentries of the Han army kept a close watch on the self-operated camp. If Xu Rong also received the front-line battle report, even if the Han army rushed to attack, the self-armed army would probably suffer heavy losses.

Fortunately, the fear and fear finally lasted until the middle of the night when he was on the road, and Gao Gan's heart gradually relaxed.Along the way, it was also very calm, and the senior officials couldn't help being proud of their prompt decision.

The only thing that dissatisfied the high-ranking officer was that he could only hide from those soldiers who knew nothing about this operation. He could only hold in his stomach the achievement of overcoming danger and averting difficulties, which made him very depressed.

It wasn't until the time came to the fifth watch, when the dawn was vaguely ushered in, that the senior officials felt sleepy for a while.Looking back at his army, he realized that his army was really shameful. The private soldiers of the big clans were yawning and complaining.The marching formation that he ordered had already been messed up by them.

"Cheer up, what does it look like to be so slack! If the Han army comes to attack at this time, we will definitely..." As soon as he said this, Gao Gan suddenly closed his mouth: It's not that he is superstitious, it's really this time He was fleeing from danger in itself, he was really afraid of his crow's mouth.

However, although the words stopped in time, when Gao Gan looked ahead again and saw that the dark night had finally dissipated, revealing the Han army that had already set up a formation in front of him, he suddenly became desperate: "Where are the scouts?" ! Why is the Han army right in front of us, but no scouts report back?!"

As soon as the sound fell, there was a sudden sound of horseshoes on the left and right sides. Li Yan fluttered his battle robe in the morning light, with a few heads hanging in front of the horse, and replied loudly: "General Gao, your scout I have been waiting for you on Huangquan Road for a long time!"

No sooner had Li Yan said this than thousands of Han and northern troops shouted from General Xu Rong in front: "Listen to all Yuan Jun! Your [-] troops on the front line have already been routed, and all the food and fodder in the army has been burned. Surrender at this time, you can still save your life! Those who are stubborn will be killed without mercy!"

"Kill!" After the Northern Army shouted three times in a row, Xu Rong waved down the red flag fiercely.

The earth-shattering shouts of killing finally erupted, and fifty thousand Han military vehicles rushed from all directions, full of murderous aura.However, Yuan Jun, who was tired all night and suddenly heard the bad news from the front line, was shocked by the shouts of the Han army.At this time, they had no physical strength, no fighting spirit, and it was impossible to even form a good formation. Facing the well-equipped Han army that was several times their own army, they immediately became chaotic.Many soldiers dropped their weapons and knelt down begging for surrender almost without thinking.

Only the two thousand personal guards of the high-ranking officials tried to rush out under the orders of the high-ranking officials.However, this kind of resistance is just like a wave splashing in the waves—when Zhang Yan hit Gao Gan with an arrow, this wave of resistance disappeared without a trace.

Afterwards, the Han army lost no more than 600 people in this battle.Moreover, it was the Montenegrin Army that high-ranking cadres had always looked down upon.Xu Rong nodded in satisfaction, and made a comment: "Sure enough, actual combat training is a quick and effective way to train troops..."
