Han Xuan originally thought that Huang Zhong's arrow would frighten Ji Shu for a few days, but he didn't expect that Jiangdong's army would rush to the city gate early the next morning to call for formation.
"People in the city, listen, our lord is kind. He cares about the elders of Changsha and does not want his hometown to become a river of blood. That's why he ordered the military advisor not to rush to attack the city before setting off for the expedition."
"Now our 20,000 elite soldiers from Jiangdong have surrounded Changsha, and there is no way to escape. Why don't you open the city and surrender quickly? Are you really going to wait until the army breaks through the city and the fields are littered with corpses?"
The early morning sun casts a soft light on the earth, and there are shadows of people on the horizon.
Zhao Yun, with his white horse and silver spear, approached the city gate alone and shouted. His silver armor shone brightly in the sun, and the formidable battle formation behind him made everyone at the city head feel a heavy weight in their hearts.
This is an attempt to defeat the enemy without fighting.
Beautiful thought!
Han Xuan curled his lips. Changsha City Gao Chi Shen would never be defeated so easily. He believed that Liu Biao would not give up Changsha easily and let Ji Shu use it as the basis for attacking Jingnan. At this moment, other counties and cities must have sent reinforcements on the way. .
"The kid with a yellow mouth is full of lies! Sun Jian is still defeated by our lord, and Sun Ce is just proud for a moment, and the outcome is still unknown. How can I, a Jian'er from Changsha, be afraid of a battle? You want to bewitch our army and earn Changsha money in vain?"
After hearing this, Zhao Yun raised his spear and pointed it at Han Xuan, laughing.
"Liu Biao is stupid and useless, how can he be my lord's rival?"
"In the battle of Jiangxia, our army was so small that it almost wiped out Cai Mao's army. Now that our troops in Jiangdong are no longer inferior to Liu Biao, what can Liu Biao do to stop our army?"
"Han Xuan, don't be stubborn. If you surrender the city, my lord will remember your contribution in saving Changsha from the war, so he may not keep you as the governor of Changsha. If you wait for the military advisor to conquer Changsha, you will only be reduced to a subordinate. Prisoner!"
Han Xuan didn't know how to refute. He himself wanted to surrender if the situation went wrong, so he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to stiffen his neck and shout.
"You can lead an army to attack the city with sharp teeth and a sharp tongue. I want to see what you are capable of?"
Of course, Zhao Yun would not order an siege, and the siege equipment was still in the process of being produced. As far as Ji Shu's strategy was concerned, it was mainly about attacking the heart.
He fearlessly drove his horse forward a few steps and challenged Han Xuan.
"Han Xuan, if you don't believe in the strength of our army, how about I make a bet with you?"
Zhao Yun made a circle with his horse, pointing his spear at the ground.
"Now I will ask the army to retreat one mile. You send 1,000 troops, and I only send 500. Let's fight here."
"If you win, I promise not to attack the city within three days. If Liu Biao's reinforcements arrive, I will make way for him to enter the city. If I win, you will open the city and surrender. How about that?"
Counting the time it took for Ji Shu to besiege the city, after waiting for another three days, the soldiers and horses from other counties and cities would arrive no matter how late they were.
Han Xuan was a little moved, but Zhao Yun dared to propose to fight his thousand troops with only 500 men. Is Jiangdong's army really so strong? Is Zhao Yun sure of victory? He hesitated.
Zhao Yun waited for a long time, and when he saw that Han Xuan did not answer, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
"You don't dare to fight if I offer 500 people, so how about I only offer 300 people?"
The soldiers on the city were in a daze, and the edge of Jiangdong Army was imprinted in their hearts in just this sentence.
Han Xuan became more and more suspicious of Zhao Yun's conspiracy to win, and even more afraid to agree.
After waiting for another long while, Zhao Yun said with some impatient disdain.
"Han Xuan, I only have 300 men and I don't dare to fight? Do you want me to fight 1,000 troops alone?"
Hahaha~~~
The Jiangdong army behind them suddenly burst into laughter.
Han Xuan's face turned blue and white, and he said sternly.
"How could I fall for your trick? If you have the ability, come and attack the city!"
Zhao Yun pointed at Han Xuan and laughed.
"I surrender but refuse to surrender, and I don't dare to fight! Han Xuan, do you just dare to hide behind the city wall and be a coward?"
Jiangdong's army outside the city couldn't stop laughing. Not to mention the soldiers in Changsha who felt useless, even Han Xuan was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.
"Master Taishou, I will go and meet him at the end!"
It was Changsha's number one general Huang Zhong who took the initiative to ask for a fight.
Han Xuan was overjoyed when he heard this, and then he remembered this. He is very confident about Huang Zhong.
"Okay! Han Sheng, go and behead this ignorant Zhao Yun. I will hang his head on the tower!"
"The last general takes orders."
······
The city gate of Changsha slowly opened, and a small group of people walked out.
Zhao Yun was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that Liu Biao's men still had some backbone. He suddenly thought of the divine arrow yesterday, and his vigilance rose to the highest level.
Huang Zhong rode in front, holding a long-handled sword and saluting with his fists clasped.
"Huang Zhong, the great commander under Han Xuan, please give me some advice."
"But yesterday's archer?"
Zhao Yun couldn't help but ask.
Before coming out, Huang Zhong had already seen Ji Shu standing intact in the opposite military formation, but this time there was a tower shield protecting him in the middle.
Huang Zhong thought that he might have missed yesterday, but he didn't expect that Zhao Yun still remembered his arrow and had nothing to hide. He nodded and admitted.
Zhao Yun was overjoyed, and a strong fighting spirit surged into his heart. He did not insist on the superiority of his official position, and returned the salute with a serious fist.
"Sun Ce's general Zhao Yun, please give me some advice."
This is the true mutual respect between martial arts practitioners. Huang Zhong felt that Zhao Yun was something special, so he secretly raised his energy and spirit to the highest level.
"kill!"
The two of them shouted at the same time, galloped away from their formation, and headed towards each other.
The galloping horse went faster and faster, turning into a silver line.
Just like two arrows in opposite directions were about to collide, everyone on the battlefield held their breath.
In the first confrontation, the two chose to fight head-on.
This is a test of their opponent's strength and their confidence in their own strength.
In a few tenths of a second, the two people's eyes met each other a few meters apart. They stared at each other closely, and the weapons in their hands reflected a cold light.
boom!
A strong gust of wind hit the place where the two people met, spreading outwards with the two people as the center, making the green carpet-like grass tremble.
The two weapons seemed to collide with lightning for a moment, roaring in the hearts of everyone.
