Chapter 474 Draw the Sword
"State herdsman! State herdsman! Maybe the third son of Cao is auspicious and auspicious, and nothing has happened!"

The entire city wall was full of messy but hasty footsteps. The Taishan archers shouted chant or stretched their bows on the battlements, or ran up the archery tower, with a gloomy old face. Wang Hou himself hurried to the city wall. Walking, following behind him, Lianjiao prefect Zhen Yao and chief bookkeeper Li Fu kept persuading him with bitter faces.

"Cao Ziwen is the third son of the prime minister. If he is captured, it is impossible not to use his own identity to avoid death. With the third son Cao in his hand, the Gongsun family will also have greater bargaining chips, but that old thief Gongsun Zhi said lightly. Kill them all, the lower officials believe that it is precisely because they failed to capture Third Young Master Cao!"

But listening to the words of the two of them, Wang Hou didn't even pay attention to him, and turned to the city with a gloomy face, and looked down the dark Liaodong army hurriedly through the binoculars.

I have to admit that compared to last year, the Gongsun family who were unprepared to be arrogant and underestimated the enemy, this year the Yanliao army is fully prepared, and it is only the beginning of October. They all put on their winter clothes, wearing thick layers of sheepskin jackets or animal fur coats.

In terms of flexibility and lightness, these guys are definitely not as good as Qingzhou's cotton-padded clothes, but at least in the severe cold, their combat effectiveness will not drop so ridiculously.

Although the equipment has not been improved a bit, but this time the Gongsun family has indeed put their money on the line. Looking at the more than 3 soldiers of the big clan in the Northland, they are old and brave, and they are more than There are 5 Goguryeo soldiers from the nomadic tribes, and [-] troops from various branches of the East Hu. Among the [-] people, [-] are cavalry. These are wild people who drilled the old forest and dealt with Xiong Guzi, and their murderous spirit was even stronger. Yan Liao's army is at one end.

I have to admit that the fighting power of the Hu people is indeed strong. Although Wuhuan was like tofu in the hands of Cao Cao, [-] people fought against [-], and they were defeated in one battle. Cavalry, the cavalry that killed the princes from all walks of life, defeated Liu Bei in Dangyang, Changban, and drove him screaming, is probably the Wuhuan cavalry.

With the military strategy of the Han people and the barbaric Hu people of various tribes, the Gongsun family is indeed very difficult to deal with this time.

However, after looking around for a while, the war knife on his waist rubbed against the scabbard and buzzed, he pulled out the knife suddenly, pointed at the Gongsun Dazhu who had returned to the center of the army formation and stood up again, Wang Hou's voice was repeated again. It sounded coldly.

"Come on, send envoys down to make an appointment with Gongsun Zhi, and ask him to retreat five li and get out of the battlefield, and our army will go out of the city to fight with him!"

"State Shepherd!"

This time, even the old general Jiang Yiqu couldn't stand up anymore, he clasped his fists anxiously and begged for help, full of astonishment.

"The enemy is outnumbered! At this time, I am afraid that the enemy will take advantage of me! Now that General Zhang Yan has returned to Qingzhou, he is transporting troops like me. Why don't the state shepherds wait a few months to gather troops before fighting the Gongsun thief!"

It is true that the enemy is outnumbered, and now the military strength of Lianjiaocheng, the Liaodong First Strengthened Brigade has 600 regiments with [-] regiments, the Daocheng Brigade has [-], plus four auxiliary corps with more than [-] Taishan bows and arrows In the end, he was worried that the two thousand or so Xianbei Yuwenbu city cavalry drawn from Jinzhou were still floating in the sea.

There are more than [-] people, and the cavalry is only half of the opponent, and it is still unreliable to surrender the Hu!No matter how you look at it, Wang Hou has little chance of winning.

But listening to Jiang Yiqu's worried persuasion, Wang Hou asked back with a gloomy face and cold snort.

"General Zhao, the cavalry veteran, didn't he forget that the enemy is outnumbered? The battle of Linji seems to be even worse than this!"

These words really didn't give any face, Jiang Yiqu choked so much that his old face turned red, and he couldn't speak for a while.

He also had nothing to say, more than 4 horsemen defeated Wang Hou's more than 6000 people, and tens of thousands were killed. When it comes to Linji, Jiang Yiqu has no temper at all.

"Don't go down and declare war!"

Seeing that Wang Hou really made up his mind, finally, in desperation, the three important ministers of Qingzhou clasped their fists and bowed, and retreated.

After dismissing his subordinates, Wang Hou picked up his binoculars again and landed on the sturdy Manhu coalition army with many banners.

Why doesn't he know that we are outnumbered?But when Cao Zhang kicked his legs to the west, he also drove him to a dead end.

The third son of the Cao family, Cao Cao was sent to "supervise the army" in name, and the gilded general Cao Zhang died in the front line as a soldier. How he explained to Cao Cao is not only a family that makes Cao Hongjie sad The tragedy will be a political upheaval.

As soon as the news of his death spread to Yecheng, the Qingzhou faction that had followed Cao Cao's footsteps from the early years of Xingping might begin to crack. Cao Cao, who learned from his ancestors, would definitely cut down Wang Hou's henchmen immediately, and Qingzhou must be the first to be stabbed.

The time is getting tighter. Originally, Wang Hou planned to gain a firm foothold in Jinzhou, and then formed and trained the second brigade and third brigade in Liaodong. They would destroy the Gongsun family step by step in several years and several battles. Now they are forced to disappear. The way out, this process has to be accelerated!
If he wants to keep his hegemony alive, he can't let the Gongsun family's army go back this year!And immediately facing the snowfall in winter, the snow in Liaodong is heavy, and the restrictions on Qingzhou infantry are also extremely large.

Therefore, in order to defeat the battle and destroy the main force of the Gongsun family, Wang Hou had to hurry up, he couldn't wait for Zhang Yan's reinforcements.

A series of thoughts swelled in Wang Hou's head, and the binoculars kept falling from one unknown barbarian flag to the other. While watching anxiously, the gate of the city was only opened this time. In the small gap, Li Fu went out in person and led a dozen cavalrymen out of the city.

The horse's hooves rolled up layers of hot autumn soil, and went straight to the front of the Gongsun family's barracks, only to be stopped by the guards with their spears horizontally, but the old boy was arrogant and chattering, just like Cao Jun who was in the siege of Yecheng Like the battalion, the guards snarled like a grandson, and got into the Yanliao formation with extraordinary airs.

In the next tactic, if Li Fu can lose his head, he will be sorry for Wang Hou's thought of recruiting him, so it doesn't matter to Li Fu at all. He patrolled the military town, trying to find some flaws.

Kung fu paid off, in his tireless observation, he really let him see some tricks, whether it is a weakness or not, the flags of the Gongsun family's army were twice as dense as his own.

Under Wang Hou's command banner, only the brigade is covered, and 80 to 100 people have a battle flag. When the battle is mobilized, the brigade is the smallest unit.

However, the smallest unit of the Yanliao Army even has a flag with more than 400 people, and the distribution of personnel units is uneven. There are as few as [-] people, and as many as [-] people have a command battle flag. The messy battle flags are large and small. It was scattered all over the place, and for a while, Wang Hou couldn't tell how many combat units Gongsun Zhi had.

"Zhou Mu, the Gongsun thieves are going to fight! Tomorrow at the end of the day, the Gongsun family's army will retreat eight miles, give way to the battlefield, and fight our army!"

Behind him, Li Fu who didn't know when he came back hurriedly reported, put down the binoculars, his report aroused a strong murderous intent on Wang Hou's face!
"it is good!"
