Chapter 962 (1/2)
More than ten thousand soldiers of Liaodong army marched dejectedly on the official road, all of them were dejected.
Originally, they planned to fight for the hegemony of Youzhou with Yuan Shao. Since gongsundu became the prefect of Liaodong, Liaodong county was separated from Youzhou and became an independent party. Later, Gongsun Du even made several counties in the east of Liaodong into Pingzhou and served as the herdsman of Pingzhou.
As a result, he killed himself in high spirits, but in the end he looked like a defeated rooster. This huge psychological gap is naturally unacceptable to ordinary people.
”Father, it doesn't matter. Although we are defeated this time, we can go back to Liaodong and regroup. Yuan Shao is restrained by Xu Huang and Lv Bu, so he doesn't dare to attack our army at all costs.” Gongsun Gong advised Gongsun Du.
”Yes, father, Yuan Shao can still survive in Peiping. Xu Huang will definitely take the opportunity to beat the water dogs and let them bite the dogs. When Yuan Shao's strength is weak, we have accumulated enough strength, and then we will kill them at one fell swoop, recapture Youzhou and occupy Hebei!” Gongsun Kang also advised.
”Oh, no harm.” Hearing that both of his sons were persuading him, Gongsun Du also reluctantly said with a smile: ”it's OK. My father was just a small official in those days. Today, he can support tens of thousands of soldiers. Now it's just a defeat. What's the matter?”
”Master Liu, is Changli city ahead?” Gongsun Gong asked Liu Yi.
”Yes, second young master, I have already sent sentinels to rule in advance. I think the city will soon send troops to take over our army.” Liu Yi replied.
Hearing Liu Yi's words, Gongsun Du breathed a sigh of relief. Although he lost a lot of money, he could continue to send troops to plunder the population and train troops from the three Koreas. As long as he saved up a few more years, he would surely have tens of thousands more troops.
”Speed up the march! You can eat when you get to Changli city. ”
More than ten thousand Liaodong troops accelerated their march towards changlicheng. After half a day's March, they naturally consumed a lot of physical strength. After hearing this news, they were greatly excited and immediately accelerated their march toward Changli city.
The outline of Changli city appeared in the eyes of more than ten thousand Liaodong army. A flag was flying high above the city, with two big characters of Gongsun on it.
At this time, the gate of the city opened slowly, but it was not the logistics team carrying the food, but a large number of enemy troops came out.
Summer Marquis!
Lu!
”Xia Hou, general Anbei of the Han Dynasty, is still here. Gongsun Du's child died quickly!”
”Lu Qian, general of the Han Dynasty's garrison, is here!”
”Kill!”
Thousands of Cao's troops in the city were suddenly killed. Under the leadership of Xiahou Shang and LV Qian, they were divided into two groups, one left and one right, and rushed to Liaodong army.
”What?”
”Why was Changli in the hands of Cao Jun?”
More than ten thousand Liaodong troops were stunned in situ and did not know what was going on. Changli County has always been under the control of Liaodong army. How could Cao's army appear here like a heavenly army?
You know, Cao Cao now occupied Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou and Jingzhou Jiangxia County, how Cao Jun inexplicably appeared in Liaodong?
”Father, this?” Gongsun Kang and Gongsun Gong look at Gongsun Du at the same time.
