There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

After knowing that his own troops and horses had not lost much, Yuan Tan immediately realized that the ambush generals on the mountain should not be very powerful, and immediately gave the order for Yuan Jun in Qingzhou to attack.

Zang Ba wrinkled his nose, feeling unhappy.

This first wave of arrow rain was a bit of a failure.

He ordered the crossbowmen on Shanli to regroup and let them aim and release.

"Hurry up, shoot the arrow, set the head for me!"

"Shoot, aim at the arrow!"

"Send the arrow, release the arrow!"

Round after round of arrow rain on Shanli rushed down to the city. Yuan Jun of Qingzhou, who rushed to climb the mountain at the forefront, was shot down on the spot. However, Yuan Jun did not stop walking. The screaming body continued to rush up the mountain, like an unstoppable flood...it was just a flood rushing upwards and backwards.

Li Tong behind Zang Ba was a little nervous.

Seeing a large number of Qingzhou troops rushing upwards, Li Tong couldn't help but swallowed, and said to Zang Ba: "The strong soldiers in the north are really brave, and they are definitely not waiting for nothing. Such a brave soldier who is not afraid of death is really my life." Rare!"

Zang Ba let out a cold snort, and said, "Why are you so nervous? Lao Tzu has been gathering in the mountains and forests of Langya Country for many years. If he can't handle even one of Yuan Shao's partial masters, then the name of the Five Heroes of Mount Tai is Bai Ming. Already!"

Seeing that the Qingzhou Yuan Jun who was climbing the mountain was only a few dozen steps away from Shanli, Zang Ba finally ordered to use his trump card.

The ambush in Shanli is different from the battle on the city wall. The mountains are full of mud and there are no battlements on the city wall. Sometimes the place where you stand is not good because the slope is too steep, so the sharpness of the crossbow and arrows is far better than when you are on the city wall. Come a little weaker.

But apart from crossbows and crossbows, rolling stones, wooden stakes, and haystacks splashed with sulfur and grease are the most terrifying and sharp existences in this kind of mountain battle.

Order Tao Jun on the mountain to ignite the haystack balls, and in an instant, huge fire-igniting objects appeared one after another on the entire mountainside, illuminating the entire horizontal mountain like daylight.

Zang Ba looked up at the pitch-black sky, smiled, and said, "The wind direction is just right!...Push it down!"

And Yuan Jun at the foot of the mountain finally began to show a frightened expression when he saw the fireball halfway up the mountain.

No matter how brave the soldiers in the north are, it is impossible for a human being not to be afraid in the face of natural disasters such as fire and water. This is human nature and cannot be changed.

Huge fireballs rolled down the mountain along the mountain, leaving paths burned by flames along the mountain.

At this moment, those Qingzhou Yuan Jun who bravely climbed the mountain finally couldn't resist, and many soldiers turned around almost subconsciously and began to run down the mountain.

Compared with the speed of falling objects on the difficult mountain road, it is impossible for people to gain the upper hand. Many Yuan Jun soldiers who had no time to run back were lifted to their bodies by the flames and wailed in pain, but the truly miserable ones were those who were directly hit by the fireball. Yuan Jun, they had burns all over their bodies, and they couldn't find a water source to extinguish the fire on their bodies. They could only let the fire burn more and more vigorously on their bodies. Burning people seem to be in hell.

"Piles, rolling stones! Put them down at the same time!" Zang Ba continued to give orders.

The deterrent effect played by the flames is huge, but the real damage to the enemy is not much. The real damage is the wooden stakes and rolling stones.

"Rush forward! Rush forward, get out of this mountain road!" Yuan Tan shouted angrily at the soldiers, his voice was shrill, as if he was roaring, and people couldn't help but feel terrified. .

But the problem is that the Qingzhou Yuan Jun's central army can't move forward at all, because right in front of them, Qingzhou Yuan Jun's front vanguard soldiers are running back one after another, as if there is something terrifying ahead something is driving them.

One is forward, the other is backward, and the two sides hit each other, naturally forming a huge blockage.

Not long after, the thing that frightened Yuan Jun's pioneer army in Qingzhou appeared.

Holding a long halberd and wearing silver armor, Tai Shici led a group of elite Xuzhou troops, rushing towards the Yuan troops in Qingzhou like a hurricane.

And what hangs in front of his horse is the head of Yuan Jun's vanguard captain Wu Yao who just passed the mountain road.

The appearance of Tai Shici completely blocked Yuan Tan's advance route.

The generals behind Tai Shici were not in a hurry to move forward, they were just holding the Jinling Liannu, and following Tai Shici's slow advance, the Liannu in their hands was not in a hurry to fire the ten crossbows... just one arrow after another He shot and killed those Yuan Jun who were blocking the official road in an orderly manner.

"There are enemies ahead, there are enemies ahead..."

"The captain is dead! The vanguard is defeated!"

"Quick, get on the horse."

"I've been hit by an arrow, ah! Save me, save me!"

Yuan Tan frowned, fiddled with the shield soldiers protecting him, and started galloping forward with a saber in his hand.

Along the way, many panicked soldiers of his own side blocked his way, Yuan Tan didn't hesitate, and swung his sword to kill these deserters under his horse.

His fierce behavior and attitude stabilized the situation for a while.

The problem is that even though he fiddled with the shield soldiers guarding him, Yuan Tan's figure was exposed to the light of the fire.

Yuan Tan kept rushing forward, swung, and beheaded the defector. Gradually, his figure appeared within Tai Shici's line of sight.

Tai Shici immediately judged Yuan Tan's identity just based on his clothes.

There was a cruel smile on the corner of his mouth, and then he took out the carved bow from under the saddle, bent the bow and set an arrow, aiming at Yuan Tan.

At this time, he suddenly heard the lieutenant Zhu Huan behind him stepping forward and admonishing him: "General, the Taifu has an order, just defeat the enemy, and don't hurt the life of Yuan Shao's son!"

Tai Shici woke up when he heard the words, but felt a little helpless in his heart.

The third younger brother is a bit less courageous, since he has already broken up with Yuan Shao, why should he be afraid of hurting his son's life?

Could it be that at this time, he is still afraid of offending Yuan Shao?

However, his thoughts belonged to his own thoughts, and Tai Shici still would not disobey the potter's military order.

He said calmly: "Understood!"

Afterwards, he loosened his two fingers, and a stern arrow cut through the air, and shot towards Yuan Tan at high speed!

Chapter 472 Brother Xiao Qiang

Yi County, the county government.

Yuan Shang and Pang Ji looked at the military report from the front line, which recorded Yuan Tan's defeat.

Yuan Shang's face almost burst into joy.

"Mr. Pang, Yuan Tan was in trouble this time. He didn't even see the face of the pottery merchant. He was killed by the Xuzhou army's partial teacher, throwing away his helmet and armor, and fled. It is said that the other party only sent a few generals. It's just two divisions... Even Yuan Tan himself was shot down by an arrow from the enemy general, and almost lost his life."

Looking at Yuan Shang's complacent expression, Pang Ji felt quite speechless.

My brothers, those who were beaten were defeated, and those who were killed threw away their helmets and armor... Why are you so happy?Something is wrong!

When the child was just born, did the head hit the ground first?

"Third son... the Xuzhou army is so brave, Yuan Shang didn't even show his face, just dispatched a few generals at random, and defeated the eldest son. His combat power is really beyond our imagination, and his subordinates are deeply worried. Of."

Yuan Shang waved his hand disdainfully, and said, "So what if his Xuzhou army is brave? Now that Hebei is getting stronger and stronger, after Gongsun Zan is completely suppressed, there will be hundreds of thousands of soldiers who are accustomed to fighting. The Tao bandits are just mere mere People in the southeast, how can we compete with my Yuan family? When my father goes south, it may not be difficult to wipe out his pottery merchant and Cao Cao together."

Although Pang Ji really wanted to tell Yuan Shang that the victory or defeat in a war was determined not only by the number of troops, but also by many factors.
