At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Therefore, Yuan Shao's counselors all held this view. They despised the Qingzhou Army without Guo Peng's command, so Yuan Shao only sent Qu Yi to lead the army to attack Qingzhou without Guo Peng.

Now that Guo Peng is back, Yuan Shao felt that the Qingzhou Army was a threat, so he sent his favorite generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou to fight, and he planned to challenge Guo Peng himself.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou also knew a little about the generals under Guo Peng's command.

However, most of them are not well-known, and only Guo Peng is really famous. Yan Liang and Wen Chou think that they are nothing special.

"It must be that Qu Yi's trash is somewhat useful, holding back Guo Peng's main force. Guo Peng can only hastily mobilize troops to resist us. I will take [-] troops to deal with this brave captain!"

Wen Chou and Yan Liang discussed for a while, and felt that they could fight. To be on the safe side, Wen Chou asked for a fight. Yan Liang nodded and gave Wen Chou three thousand soldiers.

As a result, there was a great battle, and Zhao Yun was quickly defeated, leading his army to retreat in embarrassment.

Wen Chou chased for a while but failed to catch up, so he led his troops back to join Yan Liang.

"What a tiger-danger captain! It's a mouse-danger captain! Ridiculous! Hahahaha!"

Wen Chou laughed at Zhao Yun's timidity, and Yan Liang also laughed. The two felt relieved when they saw that Guo Peng's army was not strong enough, so they continued to lead the troops forward.

After a while, I learned that Qingzhou soldiers appeared in front again, the number was still about [-], and they were led by two school lieutenants Guan Yu and Zhang Fei of the Qingzhou Army.

"Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, I heard that these two are famous for their bravery, and they are quite prestigious in the Qingzhou Army."

Yan Liang looked at Wen Chou: "Can we fight again?"

"Of course, the Captain Shudan ran fast before, but this time, I will bring back two heads!"

Yan Liang laughed, and gave Wen Chou three thousand soldiers to continue the attack.

About two sticks of incense, Wen Chou came back with a smile on his face.

"Those two men fought with me together. They were not my opponents together. They were defeated by me. If it weren't for the life of the guards around me, I would have been killed by my horse! They ran fast enough, but the thousand soldiers were defeated by me. I'm defeated, we can continue to march."

Yan Liang was overjoyed when he heard the words, and despised the Qingzhou Army, even thinking that Guo Peng was just an ordinary person, what's the use of having a great reputation, he still couldn't beat us on the frontal battlefield!

Guo Peng would bully and bully Dong Zhuo's brainless guy. If it were the two of them, Guo Peng would not be an opponent!

Yan Liang and Wen Chou had the idea of ​​stepping on Guo Peng to make a name for themselves.

The two continued to march, and after walking for a while, the sentry cavalry came back again, saying that they had encountered a large army of the Qingzhou Army, about 2000 of them, who had already lined up, and seemed to be planning to resist desperately.

"here we go again?"

Wen Chou was overjoyed; "I won't let them go this time, General, so and so asked for three thousand soldiers!"

Wen Chou wanted to repeat the old trick, but this time Yan Liang also felt a little itchy. He felt that the combat effectiveness of the Qingzhou Army had been roughly figured out in the previous two battles, and he could handle it by himself, so he wanted to lead the army to attack the Qingzhou Army himself, and made some achievements. credit.

So Yan Liang rejected Wen Chou's request, and personally led the troops to attack the Qingzhou Army in front.

Chapter 241 .240 The Death of Wen Chou

The formed Qingzhou army was led by Cao Ren, and Cao Ren led two thousand Qingzhou troops to resist the advance of Yan Liang and Wen Chou.

The two sides fought hand to hand on a road with dense forests on both sides.

Cao Ren's army was small in number and quickly fell into decline, while Yan Liang and Wen Chou led a large number of people, and the attack momentum was fierce. Yan Liang personally went to the battle to urge the soldiers to attack, and soon his army had the upper hand.

Cao Ren led the army to fight and retreat. About half an hour after the start of the battle, Cao Ren ordered the rear army to shoot hard to block the attack of Yan Liang's army, and decisively led the army to retreat.

Due to the hasty retreat, more than 50 carts carried by the army were lost, and these carts were taken by Yan Liang's army who was chasing them away.

When a soldier was chasing, he accidentally knocked over a box on a cart. The box fell to the ground and fell apart. It was full of copper coins.

"It's money!"

The soldier couldn't help shouting, which attracted a lot of attention.

When a group of soldiers saw the money all over the floor, they immediately stopped chasing and rushed over to grab the money, pushing each other into a mess.

More soldiers rushed over, pushing each other and knocking over many boxes. As a result, these boxes were filled with copper coins and silk cloth, as well as some food and ordnance, all of which were war supplies.

The eyes of the soldiers of Yan Liang's army were all red, and no one cared about the military regulations and disciplines and the pursuit of the enemy. They fought for each other and became a mess, and the neat army formation quickly became chaotic.

Later, Yan Liang and Wen Chou were still laughing at the weakness of the Qingzhou Army, and Guo Peng was a parallel importer in name only, but suddenly found that the former soldiers were in chaos, and the army formation was in chaos without order, which surprised them a little.

Some soldiers reported that some ordnance and supplies dropped by the Qingzhou Army when they retreated were captured by the soldiers, and they were all scrambling for it.

Wen Chou thinks it doesn't matter, but Yan Liang thinks it's not good.

"We're still on the march, so it's time to scramble. It's too early. We have to attack Guo Peng. Immediately order the army to regroup and stop scrambling. Are you afraid that there will be no spoils for defeating Guo Peng?"

Wen Chou felt the same way, so orders were issued, and officers began to rectify military discipline.

However, most of Yuan Shao's troops are newly recruited troops with little combat experience. They joined the army to eat and steal money, especially for money grabbing. They are very skilled. Their eyes are red when they see money. Care about military discipline?

If the army really wanted to break up, no matter how many people the main general killed, it would be useless.

For this point, many generals have a deep understanding.

So the chaos became more and more serious, and it could not be rectified at all.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou felt a little impatient, and were just about to go into battle to rectify military discipline in person, but suddenly there were rumbles of war drums and shouts of killing from all around them.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou were greatly shocked, only to find that there were a large number of Qingzhou troops on their left and right sides. These Qingzhou troops rushed out of the dense forest and rushed towards them.

Before the two of them could react, they saw the Qingzhou army that had just collapsed turn around and charged towards them. They rushed from the front, and then looked back. They were surprised to find that they even rushed a Qingzhou army on the way back.

The generals of the Qingzhou army who had just been defeated brought these soldiers and horses to rush over quickly, but their own army could not fight against them as a whole.

"What? How could this be?"

"Damn it! It's hit!"

Yan Liang and Wen Chou were shocked when they saw the Qingzhou Army coming out from all directions.

Only then did they realize that they were surrounded, surrounded by the Qingzhou Army!

Yuan Jun's soldiers were also shocked. They were in chaos just now when they were robbing property, but they suddenly saw the Qingzhou Army killing them in large numbers, and their reflex was to run away.

Holding the looted property, he ran away desperately, and fled to the retreat road, although the Qingzhou army surrounded him on the retreat road.

Under such a situation, the chaotic Yuan Army directly collapsed, and the few Yuan Army soldiers who remained in formation and the soldiers around Yan Liangwen Chou could hardly maintain it under the impact of such a wave of defeat, and many retreated.

They all ran desperately to and fro, and they couldn't rectify it at all. Yan Liang and Wen Chou couldn't do it even if they wanted to form an army and fight a bloody road. The scene was chaotic.

Seeing the situation like this, Yan Liang and Wen Chou realized that there was nothing they could do, so they could only lead the guard cavalry to blaze a trail.

It was Guan Yu who blocked their retreat. Guan Yu led his army to block Yan Liang and Wen Chou's retreat.

However, people's desire to survive is still very strong. In order to survive, they can do many things.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou charged desperately under the protection of the guard cavalry, and actually killed a bloody road. Guan Yu was furious, and stared at Wen Chou who was fighting endlessly with a knife.

Thinking of the shame of having to pretend to be defeated just now, and the shame of being ridiculed by Wen Chou, Guan Yu was filled with anger.

With his legs clamped between the horse's belly, Guan Yu rushed over with a spear in his hand.

Wen Chou was wielding his sword to kill the Qingzhou soldiers who blocked him, and he didn't notice that Guan Yu was sprinting towards him. I saw that the sharp spear tip had reached his chest.

"Wen Chou leave!!"

In the next second, the sharp spear tip pierced Wen Chou's chest.

The huge inertia brought by Guan Yu's charge stabbed Wen Chou off his horse and nailed him to the ground.

Wen Chou looked up to the sky and spat out a mouthful of blood, looking at Guan Yu's face in disbelief. In a split second, he recalled how he easily beat Guan Yu and Zhang Fei away not long ago.

Isn't that right?

With such doubts, Wen Chou left this world forever.

Wen Chou's death caused even greater confusion.

On the other hand, because Guan Yu focused on assassinating Wen Chou, Yan Liang was able to break out of the encirclement under the protection of his personal guards, and escaped desperately.

Seeing a big fish run away, Guan Yu resented that he had not done his best. After chopping off Wen Chou's head with a knife, he became even more annoyed and killed the rest of the Jizhou soldiers, killing corpses all over the field.

In this battle, the Qingzhou Army's strategy of luring the enemy to go deep was very good, and the tactics of encirclement on all sides were also good. They defeated Yuan Jun at a very small price, and the Qingzhou Army's losses were minimal.

It can be said that Yuan Jun ran all the way, and the Qingzhou Army chased all the way, chasing Yuan Jun's remnants for more than ten miles.

According to statistics after the war, the Qingzhou Army killed thousands of people, captured thousands of people, and even killed Wen Chou. Yan Liang escaped with only a few hundred remnants of his soldiers, and the Qingzhou Army can be said to have won a complete victory.

Guo Peng laughed when he heard the news of the victory, and praised Xun Yu who proposed the strategy.

"Wen Ruo's strategy really worked. Yan Liang is ugly, and brave is brave, but he has no brains. Yuan Shao used them to lead troops, which shows how good he is."

Xun Yu breathed a sigh of relief, happy that his strategy was successful.

"Yan Liang, Wen Chou's army retreated, and Yuan Benchu's plan fell through. Duke Ming can continue to plan."

After this battle, Xun Yu had gained a firm foothold in Guo Peng's camp, showed his face, and gained a reputation.

Cheng Li saw that Xun Yu was heavily used by Guo Peng as soon as he came, and felt that his background was far inferior to Xun Yu's. If he couldn't make meritorious service, he might lose his status.

Cheng Li felt a sense of crisis, so he immediately offered another strategy to Guo Peng.

Use these captured Jizhou soldiers to play psychological tactics, so that the county of Liguo can be destroyed without attack.

"We can decapitate the captured Jizhou soldiers under the city, and show off the captured battle flags and armors to deter the defenders in the city, let them know that the reinforcements have been defeated, Yuan Shao is powerless to rescue them, make them desperate, and then send them back. Surrender and divide them, and it won't take long before there will be turmoil in the city."

Cheng Li said this to Guo Peng.

Guo Peng was very happy to hear that, and he stroked Cheng Li's back, admiring him greatly.

"Zhongde counts as a plan!"

Chapter 242

I still have to make a serious statement, because the influence of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is too great, and in the past, some novels, games and TV dramas did not distinguish between the romance and the official history, and mixed the romance and the official history, which caused a considerable degree of cognitive confusion. .

And I want to solemnly declare that, first of all, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is equivalent to a fan novel, a fan novel written by people in the Ming Dynasty. I like it very much and have read it more than ten times since junior high school.

But I know that it is not official history. Secondly, I did not refer to "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" [-]%, and it does not contain any plot and content of the romance.

Luo Guanzhong is also a human being, and he will make the same mistakes as we do now when writing books. The research is not rigorous, and the real situation at that time cannot be reproduced, etc., which is normal.

For example, Liu Guan and Zhang Taoyuan were sworn brothers, for example, Zhang Fei was born as a butcher, and he helped Liu Bei build an army. For example, Liu Bei used double-strand swords, Guan Yu’s Qinglong Yanyue Sword, Zhang Feizhang’s Eight Snake Spear, Lu Bu’s Fangtian Painting Halberd, Cao Cao’s Yitian Sword and so on. , are all plots in romances and Japanese games, which do not exist in official history.

Liu Guanzhang did not have the Taoyuan trio, and it was Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping who helped Liu Bei pay for the organization of the army.

The real prototype of Fang Tian’s painting of halberds is the halberd knife recorded in the Song Dynasty’s "Wu Jing Zongyao". Halberds are very ancient weapons, and they were indeed installed in the Han Dynasty, but that’s not Fang Tian’s painting of halberds. You asked Lu Bu of the Han Dynasty to hold them People in the Ming Dynasty could indeed write about the weapons that appeared in the Song Dynasty.

In addition, according to historical research, the Qinglong Yanyue Dao used by Guan Yu, the famous general of the Three Kingdoms mentioned in novels and legends, did not exist at that time. The real Qinglong Yanyue Dao was a weapon that only appeared in the Tang Dynasty.The name of Guan Yu's Yanyue Dao, originally called the Moon Dao, was very heavy, and it was used in the Song and Ming Dynasties, mostly for exercising arm strength.

Guan Yu killed Yan Liang by "stabbing" Yan Liang under his horse in the crowd of thousands of troops. To use Qinglong Yanyue Dao, it should be chopping, not stabbing.

What else is there that Li Ru is Dong Zhuo's son-in-law and counselor, Dong Zhuo's son-in-law is Niu Fu, Li Ru is Hongnong Wang Lang Zhongling, and an official of the court. Dong Zhuo only joined Dong Zhuo after he entered the capital. There are not so many stories of offering advice.

What else is there to say that Lu Bu is the number one military general of the Three Kingdoms? The first and second words are very vague. In terms of record, Lu Bu can't be called the number one anyway. In terms of bravery, the battle examples in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms are Many, but most of them are fictional.

There are so many generals who can be called brave in official history, how can Lu Bu be number one?

Say Lu Bu is a hero, I really don't agree with him, killed the old master Ding Yuan and defected to Dong Zhuo, had an affair with Dong Zhuo's maid, turned back on Dong Zhuo, had an affair with his subordinate Cheng Lian's wife, cuckolded his subordinates, and defected to Liu Bei Xuzhou, who captured Liu Bei, was unfaithful, unjust, and unkind. He was clearly a villain, so why is he a hero?

To be honest, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms has had too much influence, both good and bad. Some things really happened, so to speak, some things didn’t happen, or Zhang Guan Li Dai, is it an artistic creation or a confuse?No one can tell.

However, I did not refer to "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" [-]%, which is obvious.

Chapter 243 .240 Two Guo Peng's Revenge

As soon as he said it, Guo Peng ordered the army to select a batch of captured Jizhou soldiers and send them to the county seat of Liguo.

Then beheaded them all in front of the defenders in the county, and showed the captured battle flags and the head of the main general Wen Chou to the defenders in the city, telling them that the reinforcements had been wiped out by the Qingzhou Army, and if they didn't surrender, they would only die.

If they surrender, Guo Peng promises that he will not kill them as Qingzhou Mu.

Under the strong psychological offensive, something went wrong in the city.

Many soldiers wished to surrender.
