Chapter 158 Capture the East China Sea

In the middle of the night, it was late at night and people were quiet. A crescent moon hung on the treetops, and the city of Donghai was silent, and the whole city seemed to have fallen asleep.

A sentry stood on the city wall and looked outside. He saw green mountains stretching like screens in the distance, and the trees were everywhere in the near distance. There were no one at all. There were a lot of footsteps behind him. The sentry couldn't help but turn around and see a group of hundreds of officers and soldiers being sent to the city gate to strengthen the guards. The sentry couldn't help but say to his companions: "Didn't it mean that Lu Bu has less than 50,000 men? Why is the general so cautious? There are more than 80,000 troops in our city! With this big city, what's there to be afraid of?"

The companion said angrily: "Our opponent is Lu Bu, how can we take it lightly? Didn't the eldest son take an army of 80,000 to attack Xia Pi? What was the result? He was killed and lost and almost wiped out!"

The sentry couldn't help but say, "I didn't expect that even General Ju Yi is not the opponent of Lu Bu..." The companion immediately made a gesture of silence, lowered his voice and said angrily: "Don't talk about General Ju Yi! Be careful to be regarded as a rebellious!"

The sentry couldn't help but say, "I don't believe it anymore! How could General Ju Yi be a rebellious?" The companion sighed and said, "This is all said by the people above. We soldiers are eating and doing things, and the others are less concerned! If you ask too much, be careful that the head of your neck is not guaranteed!" The sentry couldn't help but sigh.

The companion pushed him and pointed to the city and said, "Look, there are troops and horses again." The sentry raised his head and saw a team of more than a thousand people heading towards the city gate along the street. He couldn't help but say strangely: "There are already five or six hundred people at the city gate, why are you still sending people?" The companion said angrily: "I forgot what I told you just now? Ask less questions! Don't do these things about us soldiers! The eldest son and General Jiang, they can do whatever they want! Look at it, I'll sleep for a while." As he said that, he sat down against the wall, closed his eyes, and went to bed.

The sentry responded, looked at both sides of the city wall, and saw that no one was coming, so he was about to turn around and observe outside the city.

Kill!! Suddenly, a huge sound of killing came from the city. The sentry was shocked and quickly looked in the sound. He saw that the army transferred just now launched a fierce attack on the defenders at the city gate!? The troops were like wolves and tigers, extremely brave, and they cut down the officers and soldiers at the city gate to the ground one by one. The defenders at the city gate had been dispersed!

The sentry was stunned and had no idea what was going on. "What's going on?" The companion had woken up and couldn't help but shout when he saw the terrible scene at the gate of the city.

The alarm bells rang out, accompanied by shrill shouts. At this time, the attackers had already opened the city gate. With the roar, the particularly eye-catching Lu Bu led the army to rush in.

Guo Tu, who was immersed in his dream, was awakened by a burst of rapid smashing of the door. He shouted angrily: "What's going on? He's so bold?" Before he finished speaking, he could hear the huge shouts and fighting sounds coming from outside. He couldn't help but be stunned. At this time, someone outside shouted in panic: "No, sir! Lu Bu's army attacked the city, and all our troops were stormed!"

Guo Tu was shocked and jumped off the bed and rushed to the door to open the door. As soon as the door opened, a huge shout of killing came towards him like a tide, several times clearer than before. Guo Tu couldn't help but be startled. The officer at the door said anxiously: "General Jiang has led his army to fight and is blocking the enemy on the street! The general sent me to ask the eldest son and gentleman to preside over the overall situation and gather the army to fight back!"

Guo Tu thought for a moment. At this time, another officer rushed over and clasped his fists and said anxiously: "Sir, please discuss matters in the hall!" Guo Tu rushed to the hall.

When he arrived at the hall, he saw Yuan Tan, and quickly bowed: "Big Young Master!"

Yuan Tan said anxiously: "The enemy has entered the city. I have already ordered the army to gather and fight back. Sir, do you have any plan to retreat to the enemy?" At this time, a huge killing sound from outside was coming, as if it was constantly approaching here. Guo Tu was panicked and hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Young Master, now the city has been broken and cannot be defended. Retreat quickly! It is necessary to retreat Qingzhou!"

Yuan Tan was reluctant, frowned and said, "We have an army of 80,000, so what if the city is broken? I can still defeat Lu Bu and defend the city!"

Guo Tu was shocked and said anxiously: "Big Young Master,..."

Yuan Tan waved his hand impatiently, "Don't say it, I'm determined!" At this time, a general rushed in to report: "The eldest son, except for the defeated and the fleeing army, all the troops have been assembled, and there are a total of 40,000 troops. Please give the order!"

Yuan Tan said to Guo Tu: "Sir, lead the army to regain the city gate, and I will lead the army to support Jiang Yiqu!" After that, he ran out of the gate regardless of whether Guo Tu was willing or not. Guo Tu felt helpless and had to run out of the gate.

Yuan Tan led 30,000 troops to run straight along the main street towards the south city gate. Without going far away, he saw a flash of fire on the street ahead. Lu Bu's army was rushing and killing fiercely, and Jiang Yiqu's army was defeated and fled.

Yuan Tan was very angry, drew out his sword and waved it violently, shouting, "All soldiers in the army, rush!" Thirty thousand horses made a huge shout, and rushed forward like a tide. At this time, Lu Bu's army also rushed in like a tide. Two tides collided heavily on the street! People hit people, horses hit horses, neighing and roaring, and the atmosphere was grand! The soldiers on both sides waved their swords and guns to attack their opponents, and they saw the cold light flashing and flesh flying everywhere! At the same time, Guo Tu led 10,000 people to run from the galloping road beside the city wall around the battle front and heading towards the city gate, intending to retake the city gate. If he succeeded, the battle situation might have reversed.

Yuan Tan waved his sword and kept yelling: "Rare for me! Rush for me!..."

At this moment, the Yuan army in front suddenly became in chaos. Lu Bu rode a red rabbit horse and waved Fang Tian Hua Ji straight into the middle of the Yuan army. Fang Tian Hua Ji opened and closed, and pieces of Yuan army officers and soldiers were swept to the ground! Yuan army officers and soldiers were shocked and mustered up the courage to siege. However, before they could get close to Lu Bu, they were knocked to the ground by the whistling Fang Tian Hua Ji, and died tragically on the spot! Yuan army's offensive was disrupted by Ailang, and the Lu Bu soldiers let out a roar and attacked the Yuan army fiercely, killing Yuan army's corpse blood and flew backwards and became in chaos!

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yuan Tan's expression changed drastically and shouted anxiously: "Hold on! Hold on!"

Lu Bu's army became more and more brave as they fought, and they moved forward drastically. Yuan's army was killed so hard that blood was accumulated in the ditches. They became more and more panicked. Finally, they could not resist and completely collapsed.

Lu Bu's army roared and chased after him. The slow-running Yuan army officers and soldiers had no chance to beg for mercy and were chopped down in a pool of blood by random knives on the spot. Yuan Tan was still shouting loudly, "Stop!" but was swept by the defeated tide of soldiers and fled to the north. Seeing the defeated soldiers running like a tide, they only felt like they were in a nightmare and could not accept it at all.

Guo Tu was leading his army to detour the south gate and was about to reach the place. Suddenly, he received an urgent report from a scout: "No, sir! The eldest son's army was defeated by the enemy's head on the front, and the army was defeated!" Guo Tu was shocked and quickly led his army to escape. In fact, if he continued to raid the southern city gate according to Yuan Tan's order at this time, although he could not turn defeat into victory, he would inevitably restrain Lu Bu's army and allow most of the officers and soldiers to escape the fate of being annihilated. However, Guo Tu was Guo Tu, and he was not Ju Yi.

Yuan Tan fled from Donghai County and fled northward. When he saw the shadows of trees in the dark, he thought it was an ambush of his opponent. When he heard Ye Xiao's whistle, he thought it was an enemy's cry. He was frightened and frightened, running all the way, and did not dare to stop at all.

The next morning, Yuan Tan fled to Jiqiu County, 70 miles north of Donghai County. As soon as he was determined, he checked the losses and found that there were only more than a thousand cavalry following him, and the remaining 80,000 troops were not known whether they were annihilated or fled.

The county magistrate of Jiqiu stood beside Yuan Tan, and when he looked at them like a stray dog, he couldn't help panic.

At this moment, there were suddenly shouting and rumbling horse hooves outside. Everyone was shocked and stood up quickly. At this time, an officer stumbled in, fell to the ground with a plop, and shouted anxiously: "No! Yes, it's Lu Bu's cavalry!"

Everyone was shocked and hurriedly got on the horse again. Many things were thrown away. Yuan Tan didn't even have time to take his helmet. Everyone rode out of the county town and ran towards Langya County to the north. The local county magistrate was left at a loss and didn't know what to do.

Zhao Yun led 5,000 cavalry to the Jiqiu County. He heard that Yuan Tan had just run away, and immediately passed through the county town like a whirlwind and chased him towards the north.

One day later, Yuan Tan and his nearly a thousand defeated generals fled to the banks of Yishui. They were trapped and horses were exhausted. Many war horses fell to the ground and could not get up. Yuan Tan looked at the wide river in front of him and shouted anxiously: "Hurry, find a boat to cross the river!" At this time, the big city in Yuan Tan and his eyes was Langya County. Langya, at the confluence of Wushui and Yishui, had a very important strategic position. Although Donghai County was rich, when it came to the strategic location in the south of Qingzhou, it was Langya. If Ailang wanted to seize Qingzhou, he had to take down this Langya County first, otherwise it would be a dream to seize Qingzhou. At this time, the place where Yuan Tan and his people were located was on the east bank of Yishui, and Langya was on the west bank of Yishui. If he wanted to go to Langya, he could only cross the Yishui.

The officers and soldiers immediately went nearby to look for ships. After a while, an officer came back and clasped his fists and said, "The eldest son, I only found a small fishing boat."

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves came from behind. Everyone was shocked and quickly looked south. They saw Lu Bu's cavalry rushing towards the top of the line at full speed. The white horse and silver spear in the lead was extraordinary. It was Zhao Yun. Yuan Tan was so panicked that the officer said anxiously: "Young Master, go!" Yuan Tan couldn't help but abandon his mount and ran onto the boat. The officer and a few soldiers jumped onto the boat, and hurriedly drove the boat straight to the other side.

When the Yuan army officers and soldiers saw that Yuan Tan had left them, they were at a loss and were in chaos.
