Three Kingdoms Eschatology

It's okay if Feng Yu doesn't say anything, but the doubts of the generals and schools around him are even greater.Wei Feng exclaimed: "Hua Xiong? How can Hua Xiong return after arriving at Tongguan? Do you want them to charge back again?"

Feng Yu laughed and said, "Of course not."

Over there, Zhang Liao had come to his senses and said, "It turns out that my lord has a plan. But you want to use the fleet of Henan County?"

"That's right. For the Tongguan and Weinan battles, someone has asked Xu Rong to suspend operations in Jizhou."

"However, it will take a day or two for the troops from Liangzhou Ma Teng and the western cities of Guanzhong to arrive. This gap..."

Feng Yu still said confidently: "That's right. Not only is our military strength not in place for the time being, but we can't build a complete fortification on this opening in the time of the day.

But the enemy army must have been lucky in the first day or two and tried to retreat completely.Therefore, they will neither divide their forces to break through, nor will they concentrate their forces to make an assault at any cost.In this way, as long as we have the intelligence in place and concentrate our mobile forces to intercept them, they will not be able to break out of the encirclement. "

……

Four days ago, the Yellow River, the Mengjin River section.

The river was densely packed with Viking ships, the sails of which were swelled by the southeast wind, and the oars on both sides were moving at the same time, and they were going up the water.

On both sides of the Mengjin Strait, soldiers from both Cao Ying and Yuan Ying were stunned.Especially in Yuanying, the sound of drums and trumpets to warn against enemy attacks was heard.There are still many crossbowmen who have already released arrows into the river.But the opponent was sailing on the south bank side, and the range of these arrows was basically out of reach.

These Viking ships arrived at Tongguan three days later. At this time, the Huaxiong cavalry who had arrived at Tongguan were sent to the upper reaches of the Wei River in batches to strengthen the defense of the Weinan encirclement.

……

On the south bank of the Weishui River, a few riders galloped here, jumped off their horses to check the hydrology and geography, and then rode away again.They are Yuan Jun's scouts, looking for a suitable place to build a pontoon bridge.

After a while, a large group of Yuan Jun's infantry came.Some soldiers carried equipment and carried driftwood to swim across the Wei River, and began to cut trees and move rocks on both sides of the north and south banks, and at the same time build pontoon bridges facing each other.

Previously, when Zhang Liao cavalry chased Yuan Xiong's pawns, Yuan Xiong's pawns lost a lot of luggage, including a large number of engineering equipment.Therefore, building the pontoon bridge must be much slower than in the past.

The main force of the Yuan-Hungarian coalition forces stayed not far from the bridge construction site, and only waited for the pontoon bridge to be built before crossing the Wei River and returning to the ferry on the bank of the Yellow River.

In the night, Yuan Jun lit a pile of bonfires on the bank of the Weishui River, and brightly lit the scene.Guo Tu ordered the bridge builders to continue working overnight.Although he hasn't discovered Feng Yu's intentions yet, he already has a bad feeling in his heart, and he feels like returning home.

By midnight, the length of the pontoon bridges on both sides had exceeded half of the width of the river bed.Yuan Jun, who was working on the north bank, suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes.

Immediately afterwards, random arrows poured down like raindrops.In an instant, Yuan Bing fell down.Then, under the reflection of the bonfire, hundreds of warriors rushed into the construction site brandishing sabers.

Seeing that the situation was not good, a Yuan Jun craftsman ran towards the Weishui River with a piece of wood in his arms.Before he could take two steps, the man was knocked down by the cavalry, lying on the ground, and his back chest was crushed by the iron hoof.

Another Yuan Bing grabbed the long wooden pole and swept it towards the charging horse, and hit the horse with a bang, causing the horse to neigh in pain.The war cavalry had already passed by him, and then the knife flashed, and his head was cut off in an instant and fell to the ground.

Only for an hour and a half.Amidst the sound of people shouting, horses neighing, and weapons clashing, Yuan Jun's weak resistance on the north bank was shattered.Except for a few who escaped into the grass at night, almost all the soldiers were killed.

On the other side of the river, Guo Tu, Liu Bao and a group of Yuan Xiong soldiers could only sigh across the river, watching their soldiers being slaughtered.

When Liu Bao was beating his feet and chest by the river, he only heard a whoosh, and then he let out a scream, and felt some warm blood on his face.A bodyguard next to him fell sideways, with a trembling arrow rubbing against his temple.

In the dark night, Feng Yu Qingqi Feiyu's arrows shot towards the bridge construction site on the south bank.Those Yuan Jun soldiers who were shirtless and soaked in the water kept being shot down by arrows.Even people on the shore were hit by arrows from time to time.

"Quick! Back quickly, the river is dangerous, and the Han army is shooting arrows!" With roars, the guards guarded Guo Tu and Liu Bao and retreated.

After a while, raging flames ignited on the other side of the river.Engulfed a section of the pontoon bridge that had just been built in the fire.

In the night, Guo Tu looked at the burning half of the pontoon bridge from a distance, and muttered to himself: "This is a coincidence, it's just a coincidence! How many troops and scouts can the Han army have, and how many people can travel along hundreds of miles?" Defense on the Weishui?"

Suddenly a terrible idea popped up in Guo Tu's mind. "In case...if this is the case, others don't have to defend the Weishui for hundreds of miles!"

He immediately summoned a dozen scouts and asked them to explore west along the river overnight.At dawn, the scouts returned one after another.

Guo Tu and Liu Bao finally confirmed a terrible thing, Feng Yujun has built a line of defense between Huashan and Weishui.The intention is obvious, that is to surround and wipe out more than [-] people like him.

Liu Bao was more eager than Guo Tu, and shouted, "It's over! It's over! It's not a matter of being deflated, it's a sign that everything will be left here."

Guo Tu was still pretending to be calm, and said in a cold voice: "King Zuoxian, don't panic. What you do will only disturb the morale of the army. Our army will be in chaos before the enemy arrives. Our army has not yet reached the end of the mountain. , Feng Yu wants to trap us, I'm afraid it won't be that easy!"

Chapter 174 Trapped Beast

At dawn, a layer of mist shrouded the Weinan Plain.In Feng Yujun's camp near the Wei River, a sentry soldier suddenly narrowed his eyes, then widened them wide.A large group of soldiers and horses still emerged from the mist more than a hundred battles away, and the entire cavalry formation was more than a hundred battles long horizontally.

"The enemy cavalry is coming! Be alert" he opened his throat and began to shout loudly.Then, shouts and drums sounded suddenly.

The team of iron cavalry changed from slow to fast, and the sound of thousands of horses galloping began to sound, and the cavalry spread their hooves and galloped.However, they did not come for this Feng Yujun camp.Instead, he rushed towards a gap in the south side of the camp.

At present, between Huashan Mountain and the south bank of the Weishui River, Feng Yujun has built three large camps, which are connected by ditches and barriers.These trenches are so wide that it is impossible for war horses to jump over them.

But because of the rush of time, the line of defense was not completely completed.There are two gaps between the three battalions, each more than a hundred battles wide.In these two gaps, some refusal horses were only scattered to prevent the passage of enemy cavalry.

At this moment, a large group of Feng Yujun soldiers had already arrived and rushed towards the gap.These people include reclamation soldiers and legionnaires.Some of the reclamation soldiers carried giant scull shields as tall as a man, and some held a five-foot long spear.Legionnaires are mostly composed of spear shield soldiers and archers.

The movement of Yuan Xiong's coalition forces had long been discovered by Feng Yu's scouts, and after entering the seven-mile defense line, Feng Yu used the system to check everything at a glance.half an hour ago.Feng Yu began to dispatch troops from the two camps on both sides of the gap.

They had arrived near the gap a quarter of an hour ago and hid nearby.They waited for the enemy to launch a surprise charge towards the gap before they rushed out.

The giant scull shield quickly formed a shield wall.Spears protruded from behind the shield wall like a forest.At this time, the Xiongnu iron cavalry was only dozens of battles away.

Liu Bao, who was supervising the battle at the back, was shocked when he saw this. He thought that the Han army would organize an army here to intercept him, but he didn't expect the Han army to be so well prepared.It is too late to withdraw troops now.Fortunately, he only sent more than a thousand cavalry to play forward, otherwise the loss would have been lost.

The tribal leader who personally led the cavalry charge now had a distorted face, and let out a final cry, not so much to cheer up the cavalry, but to cover up the fear in his heart.

In the blink of an eye, the Huns' cavalry collided with Feng Yu's army.They rode their horses and jumped past where there were refusal horses to block them, but at least one-third of the horses failed.

Immediately afterwards, the horse screamed and the people shouted.Some warriors couldn't hold back their footsteps and bumped into the forest of spears. The other end of the spear hit the ground, and the body of the spear was bent into a bow.

Some warriors collided with the shield wall suddenly, knocking the oar shield to the ground, and the soldiers behind the shield wall also fell down.

But this giant scull shield and the many soldiers supporting it also gave the war cavalry a huge reaction force.The war cavalry was stopped abruptly.Some even caused internal injuries due to the huge impact, spit out large mouthfuls of donated blood, and fell to the ground after screaming.

The riders on them flew into the air one after another, and when they landed, they were greeted by a forest of spears from the Han army.After the gap in the shield wall, arrows and spears flew together, throwing densely at the following Huns cavalry.

The entire cavalry charged and assaulted within a quarter of an hour before and after, and it ended hastily.The remaining hundreds of cavalry fled in panic, leaving behind the corpses of six or seven hundred Hun cavalry.

When Liu Bao led the cavalry to attack Feng Yujun's defense line in a bloody attack.Guo Tu took advantage of the opportunity of Feng Yujun's infantry to mobilize most of the troops, and let [-] infantry try to sneak across the trench and pass behind Feng Yujun.

Taking advantage of the few defenders in the trench, the two thousand infantry passed through the trench easily and crossed Feng Yujun's defense line.

But no sooner had they climbed the edge of the ditch than they found themselves cornered.Hundreds of heavy armored cavalry riding Feng Yujun had already galloped over, killing more than half of them like cutting melons and tofu, and the remaining little centaurs were completely defeated.At the same time, Feng Yu's infantry from the rest of the trench were also coming in large numbers.

On the unobstructed Weinan Plain, how could the infantry escape the pursuit of the cavalry.Therefore, most of these defeated soldiers fled back and fled back to their own formation on the east side of the defense line.Here at least our own cavalry can provide cover for themselves.

The few routs who fled to other directions were almost all chased and killed by Feng Yujun's cavalry.

At this time, the sun has risen three feet high.Feng Yu watched the battle from the watchtower in the middle camp.He couldn't help sweating his palms.

Just now, if Yuan Jun and the Huns did not hesitate to pay the price, the whole army would attack.Concentrating on several points and hitting repeatedly, the final result is also unpredictable, at least they can run thousands of horses.However, Guo Tu and Liu Bao were not determined to pay the price.

"My lord, look. That's our reinforcements coming!" The guards around Feng Yu shouted.Feng Yu raised his eyes to the west of the camp, and saw a large group of pikemen marching in line.

They were two thousand reclamation soldiers from Huaili County and Chiyang County.After receiving the military order the day before yesterday, I rushed day and night to Chang'an in one day, and arrived here in a day and a night.

At this time, Feng Yujun's soldiers cleaned up the battlefield where the bloody battle had just taken place, and began to dig trenches and build fortifications.There were also some soldiers who brought in new rejecting horses built overnight, and spliced ​​them together with the previous rejecting horses to completely seal the gap.Moreover, sharpened bamboo poles are inserted all over the horse.

At this time, another soldier came to report to Feng Yu.It is said that from the west side of the camp, a group of about [-] fine cavalry came, claiming to be Ma Teng's troops, and the general asked to meet Feng Yu.

Feng Yu hurriedly went to greet him with all the generals.Looking around, Feng Yu saw that this man had the same silver spear and armor as Zhao Yun, but his mount was a black horse with a black mane.

When the man saw Feng Yu, he immediately bowed his hands and said, "Your Excellency must be General Chariot, Feng Yu is waiting in Zhuyang County!"

Feng Yu nodded and said yes, but he hadn't asked the other party yet.The man changed his bow and said: "Soldiers said that General Cheqi is here, but I still don't believe it. I didn't expect it to be true. It is a great fortune to meet the general here. I am the governor of Liangzhou. Teng's son Ma Chao."

Feng Yu helped Ma Chao up, and said happily, "It turned out to be Ma Chao and Ma Mengqi. With Ru coming to help, the Huns and Yuan Thieves are really hard to fly."

On the other side, Yuan Jun and the Xiongnu's open camp.Guo Tu, Liu Bao and other generals and leaders sat on the ground dejectedly, discussing countermeasures.Some advocate concentrating forces and attacking a point with all their strength, while others advocate dividing troops into several groups to break through the encirclement.There are even some suggestions that they should be broken up into parts and swim across the Wei River.

Liu Bao shook his head and said: "We Huns are not good at water. Even war horses are afraid of water and can't swim. When we get into the river, we can float on the water at most, but we are swept away by the rapids."

Chapter 175 The Death of Guo Tu

At noon, Guo Tu was still undecided.He took his personal guards and rode horses with Liu Bao to the front of Feng Yujun's barrier again.Swimming along the nine-mile-long barrier defense line, secretly observing the opponent's openings from a distance.

In the end, not only did he not find any flaws, but he found that the defense of this line of defense was even stronger.If it is said that he attacked at all costs in the morning, he might rush out with 4000 or [-] troops.But if they continue to attack at any cost, the price is likely to be the annihilation of the entire army.

Guo Tu really panicked at this moment.

In the end, Guo Tu decided to find a way out on the Wei River.He also sent more than a dozen scouts to search for a suitable pontoon bridge site on the Weishui River for more than [-] miles, and let them swim across the Weishui River to collect information on Feng Yujun on the other side.

But after an hour or two, none of the scouts who crossed the river could return.Guo Tu was even more troubled and uneasy, and even more puzzled.No matter how tight Feng Yujun's defense is, with his strength here, it is impossible to defend even the scouts.

In fact, at this time, on the north bank of the [-]-mile-long Wei River, there were four battalions of Qingqi Feiyu, two battalions of heavy cavalry, two teams of scouts, and Ma Chao's two thousand fine cavalry.On average, one war cavalry is deployed at each battle distance.This density is difficult for even a rabbit to penetrate.

Guo Tu knew in his heart that, including today, if he could not break through within two days, it would be a catastrophe.Because the food and grass that the whole army carries with them is only two days' worth.He made up his mind to build a pontoon bridge on the Wei River at any cost.

This time the pontoon was built, which was uncharacteristically.First let the remaining craftsmen in the army gather away from the shore to pre-build the buoy components.

When it was sunset again, Guo Tu asked several groups of soldiers to cross the river at several points as suspicious soldiers to attract the Han army on the other side to concentrate their forces here.

But Guo Tu didn't know that the Han army was not fooled by this move, except that the corresponding number of cavalry was concentrated in these places, and the main force was not mobilized.

By the time it gets dark, when night falls.Guo Tu finally launched a real action.Taking advantage of the night, the soldiers rushed towards the surface of the Weishui River with the components of the pontoon bridge on their shoulders, working in the dark under the moonlight.In addition, Guo Tu also gathered all the crossbowmen and arranged them on the south bank, in case the Han army attacked.Just shoot at the opponent.

In the sound of splashing water, the pontoon bridge was quickly laid on the river.When the deck of the pontoon bridge extended to the middle of the river, a working Yuan Jun craftsman suddenly found a dark thing flying towards him by the moonlight, and then his head buzzed and he lost his mind.A sharp ax was embedded in his celestial cap.

Yuan Jun's crossbowmen on the south bank had already fired their bows and arrows. They found a boat in the river and was quickly approaching the half-built pontoon bridge.A row of round shields hung on one side of the ship's side, and the arrows shot at these round shields and the side of the ship, but did not have any impact on the Viking soldiers behind.

At this time, the Viking warriors threw axes, spears, and torches at Yuan Bing on the pontoon bridge.With screams and wailing, Yuan Jun's soldiers fell into the water one after another.

On the north bank, there was a sound of galloping horseshoes.Feng Yujun's Qingqi Feiyu is here!Guided by the torches that fell on the bridge, they shot dense arrows.Those Yuan Jun soldiers on the bridge became living targets. Some survivors ran backwards, and some jumped into the water to escape.

Yuan Jun's crossbowmen on the south bank shot arrows to the north bank.However, the distance of the opponent's ranger is very far, and the shooting range of the arrow cannot reach it at all.

With a sound of "bang", the Viking ship in the Weishui had already approached the pontoon bridge.Several soldiers fixed the ropes to the key parts of the village pontoon with claws.

General Yuan Jun on the shore understood what they were going to do at a glance, and ordered Yuan Bing to come forward to attack and kill.Dozens of Yuan Jun's swords and shields held their shields in their hands and held their swords, facing the rain of arrows, they walked towards the bridge tremblingly.

But they acted too late, the Viking ship had already started to drift downstream, and the oarsmen in the boat were still rowing hard.There was only a crackling sound of wood cracking, and the pontoon bridge was torn apart and drifted downstream...

Guo Tu, who was standing in the distance, was dumbstruck when he saw this scene.He never expected that the Han army would have warships in Weishui.

It was dawn again, and Yuan Jun and the Xiongnu soldiers who had been tossing for half a night still made no progress.There is not much time left for them.

At this time, the defense line between Huashan and Weishui has been completed, and strange warships patrolling along the river can be seen from time to time in Weishui.There are also a large number of Han army cavalry patrolling on the north bank of the Weishui River.The reclamation soldiers from the remaining cities of Sanfu in Guanzhong are arriving one after another.

Everyone in Yuan Jun and the Huns, even the most ordinary pawns, knew what they were facing.It is impossible for them to break out of this huge cage.

Guo Tu was racking his brains at this time to think, he was not thinking about how to bring the whole army out of the predicament, but how to get out of the whole army.

He thought that it would be very difficult to escape with only a few personal guards now.And after he escaped like this, how should he explain to Gao Gan and Yuan Shao?If you go to another place, who should you go to?Surrendering to Feng Yu, I don't know what he will do with himself.

Just as Guo Tu was thinking wildly, there was a sudden commotion in the army.Guo Tu knew that commotion at such a moment was very dangerous, and it was very likely to cause a battalion roar, which could cause the entire army to collapse in an instant.He immediately ordered his soldiers to investigate the cause of the commotion.

The soldier went there for a while and reported back that Liu Bao ordered all the soldiers in the army to hand over their dry food for unified dispatch.The soldiers of the Yuan Army were naturally unwilling to hand over their rations, so they clashed with the Xiongnu soldiers who went to collect food.As soon as Guo Tu heard this, he immediately got up and went to find Liu Bao.

When Guo Tu came to Liu Bao's side, several Yuan Jun generals were already arguing with Liu Bao.He separated those people, stepped forward and said to Liu Bao:

"King Zuo Xian, who asked you to confiscate the rations of the soldiers? Isn't this obviously going to cause a mutiny?"

Seeing that it was Guo Tu who came, Liu Bao sneered, "Now, the grain and grass we carry with us are about to run out, so naturally we need to dispatch the remaining grain and grass in a unified manner."

"Even so, it's not up to you to issue this military order. It should be up to our prefect to make the decision."

"Yeah, why don't you Huns hand over the rations to the centralization. And the concentrated food should not be handed over to the Huns. After all, you are the guest army, and we are the main army."

Yuan Jun's generals refuted in one go.Guo Tu knew that he could not conflict with Liu Bao at this time, and was about to say a few words to ease it.Liu Bao suddenly jumped up, drew out his waist knife, and swung it vigorously. The light of the knife flashed, and the head of a general of the Yuan Army fell.More than a hundred Xiongnu soldiers around Liu Bao also attacked at the same time, and all their weapons came out.Those Yuan Jun generals were all chopped into meat sauce in an instant.

Guo Tu couldn't see it well, so he wanted to leave, but it was still possible to leave.Liu Bao grabbed Guo Tu's hair, despite his begging, he still slit his throat with a knife like killing a chicken.

Chapter 176 Unexpected Quick End

In Yuan Bing's camp, the Huns and Yuan Jun soldiers were still pushing each other.Suddenly, a Yuan Bing with arrows stuck in his body and covered in blood rushed towards him. This person was Guo Tu's personal guard, and escaped by chance when Liu Bao attacked and killed Guo Tu.

At this moment, he shouted in despair while running: "Brothers, hurry up! Get ready. The Huns are going to kill us! The prefect Guo Tu has already been killed by them!"

When he shouted, the camp immediately exploded.Some Yuan soldiers took up their weapons to kill the Xiongnu soldiers, and some Yuan soldiers ran wildly outside.At this time, everyone is mentally tense to the extreme, and their emotions are extremely unstable.

The whole camp began to boil, and the most terrifying camp roar happened!

Liu Bao's killing of Guo Tu was also a temporary idea, and there was no pre-planning.The vast majority of the Huns didn't know about this matter, and naturally they didn't know that Liu Bao was planning to attack and kill Yuan Bing, so the leaders at all levels were not prepared.

Yuan Bing and the Huns were actually gathered in one camp, but camped in different areas.Yuan Bing was surrounded by Huns.At this time, the camp noise that occurred in Yuan Bing's camp area quickly spread to the Huns' camp area.

Between the camps in the wilderness of Weinan, there were people running around and yelling.Many people were pushed to the ground in a daze, trampled to death.There are also many people who fell under the swords and guns of others in a daze.

At the beginning, Yuan soldiers and Xiongnu soldiers were still attacking and killing each other, but it soon turned into hacking and killing indiscriminately.In fact, the reasons for this phenomenon are well understood.

When a small group of people who knew each other were attacked inexplicably, they saw any group of strangers armed with weapons, and they would assume that the other party was going to attack them.So act first to protect yourself.In this way, the survivors among the opponents will become active attackers with the same psychology.Eventually the infection spread to the entire camp.

After Liu Bao killed Guo Tu, he ordered several Hun tribe leaders to organize Hun soldiers to surround and kill Yuan Bing.At this moment, Ying Xiao broke out in full force.He hurriedly brought more than a hundred personal guards to control the situation himself.

As soon as he approached the scene, he was dumbfounded. He had never seen the horror of Yingxiao in his life, and naturally he had no experience in dealing with such incidents.Liu Bao led more than a hundred personal guards, and tried his best to kill the fleeing crowd, trying to suppress the chaos with brute force.

A Yuan Bing ran towards Liu Bao with a sharp knife in his hand, and Liu Bao beheaded the Yuan Bing easily.The guards around him also raised their knives and beheaded several of Yuan Bing's accomplices.Seeing that the situation was not good, Yuan Bing in the back took the road and fled in other directions.One bumped into another group of Yuan Bing with knives and guns, and the two groups fought again.
