Jincheng County, Yuzhong City.
After receiving the news that the Xianbei cavalry had invaded Jieting, Han Sui and Ma Chao also led the 300,000 Qiang-Han coalition forces to the foot of Yuzhong City.
Looking at the endless Qiang army under the city, Liu Zhang could only force himself to remain calm.
The 300,000-strong army is truly endless as far as the eye can see!
Liu Zhang kept looking behind him, wanting to find out what the figure of three hundred thousand was, but unfortunately he couldn't see the boundary even if he tried to look through it!
While I was filled with emotion, I couldn't help but feel envious in my heart.
When will I have an army of 300,000 people!
There is an extreme disparity in strength between the two sides, with the gap in military strength even reaching five times!
This is the result of Ma Teng leading the Liangzhou Jingqi to join in!
If we only count the direct troops under Liu Zhang's command, the difference in numbers is more than five times.
Liu Zhang had no confidence that his soldiers could fight one against five, and he had no plans to fight with Han Sui in the field.
Sticking to Yuzhong City became Liu Zhang's only way out.
Fortunately, Yuzhong City is not only tall and easy to defend but difficult to attack, but the geographical location of the entire city is very advantageous!
There is only one access road between Yuzhong and Jincheng, and both sides are blocked by high mountains. Whether attacking Yuzhong from Jincheng or attacking Jincheng from Yuzhong, the attack can almost only be done from the front.
The two cities are almost built along the mountains. The entire city is not a level, but it is very close to the level.
The Yuzhong city wall is only more than twenty steps away from the mountains on both sides, because it is difficult for the army to pass safely.
After more than a month of preparations, Yuzhong City was well equipped with troops and supplies, and Liu Zhang had already stocked up on all kinds of supplies.
The Art of War goes like this: If you are ten, you can surround it; if you are five, you can attack it!
Therefore, facing a force five times his own, Liu Zhang was not very panicked.
He believed that relying on the strength of Yuzhong City would be enough to wait until Yizhou reinforcements arrived!
The Qiang-Han coalition had just arrived at the foot of Yuzhong City, and it seemed that they had no intention of attacking. The army stopped in front of the city wall.
At this time, a figure walked out from in front of the formation and walked to the smallest safe distance from the city.
"Where is General Wei Liu Zhang?"
Liu Zhang looked down and saw that it was Han Sui himself who came in person.
"Han Wenyu, what do you want to do with me?"
Han Sui saluted first and then moved forward, and took the initiative to bow his hands to Liu Zhang.
"How heroic the vanguard general was outside Didao City a few months ago, why is he now hiding in Yuzhong City and not daring to fight me!"
I thought Han Sui would greet him first, but unexpectedly he started taunting him.
"Haha, whether to fight or defend, it all depends on my thoughts. How can you control it?"
Han Sui smiled contemptuously, and Liu Zhang was indeed as eloquent as ever.
"Liu Zhang, don't talk nonsense anymore! When I call you General Wei, do you really think you are still General Wei?"
"To tell you the truth, you won't be able to serve as General Wei for a few more days!"
"There are three hundred thousand troops behind me now. Those who have the sense to surrender quickly! If you hesitate for a moment, Yuzhong City will be trampled to ashes in an instant!"
Liu Zhang was immediately disappointed. He didn't expect that the conversation with Han Sui was so boring and there was no threat with any gold content.
"Han Sui, do you think threats are useful to me? If I were afraid of your 300,000 rotten fish and shrimps, would I still wait for you in Yuzhong City?"
"But I am a little curious. I really want to see how you trampled Yuzhong into ashes!"
The purpose of Han Sui's coming was not to persuade Liu Zhang to surrender. Based on his understanding of Liu Zhang, he might put a knife to his neck, but Liu Zhang would still not surrender.
Therefore, Han Sui had only one purpose, which was to demoralize Liu Zhang's army.
There are more than 60,000 defenders in the city. This number is naturally not worth mentioning compared to 300,000. However, relying on the advantages of Yuzhong Fort, it has to attract Han Sui's attention.
"Liu Zhang, don't think that you will be fine just by guarding Yuzhong! Do you know that 200,000 Xianbei cavalry have already charged through Xiao Pass, and I'm afraid it won't be long before they reach Ji County!"
"Once Ji County is defeated, the entire Hanyang County will no longer be yours! Your retreat will be completely cut off!"
It's a pity that Han Sui's dream of causing Liu Zhang's liver and gallbladder to break will eventually come to nothing. He has already made appropriate arrangements for the Xianbei people.
"Han Sui, you piece of shit who has no father and no king! It's a good thing you didn't mention the Xianbei people. Since you mentioned the Xianbei people, I will have to scold you!"
"You, the Han family, have lived on the Han Dynasty for a long time and have been ministers of the Han Dynasty for many generations! Now you don't want to serve the imperial court, so you can rebel and establish your own rule. After all, you are a Han Chinese, and you can be considered an ambitious person at best."
"But you colluded with foreigners, ignored the life and death of the Han people in Guanzhong, and tried to donate the land of the Han people to the Xianbei people!"
"A shameless traitor like you, aren't you afraid of retribution? I will see how you can face your ancestors of the Han family after your death!"
Han Sui's eyes were as cold as frost, and Liu Zhang's words hit the spot that hurt him. However, he was not willing to be insulted by Liu Zhang, so he immediately pointed angrily at Liu Zhang.
"Traitor Liu Zhang, if I hadn't been forced into desperation by you, how could I have lured the Xianbei people into the Pass?"
"In the final analysis, all this is thanks to you. All the suffering of the people in Guanzhong in the future will be caused by you, Liu Zhang!"
Colluding with the Xianbei people has become an established fact. Han Sui can't quibble or evade, but he can put all the responsibilities on Liu Zhang.
"Hahaha! Oops!"
Liu Zhang kept laughing contemptuously, and then spat at Han Sui.
This little trick of secretly changing concepts has long been left behind by him.
"Shameless thief, you betrayed the country, betrayed the nation, and now you dare to spit on others again!"
"I would like to ask you, you, the Han family, have lived in Han Dynasty for a long time and have been ministers of Han Dynasty for generations. Why did you rebel?"
"Since you chose to rebel, as a general of the Han Dynasty, why can't you come to quell the rebellion?"
"In the final analysis, it's all because you, Han Sui, are selfish and don't care about the lives of the people in Guanzhong! How can a selfish, ruthless and treacherous villain like you exist in the world!"
Han Sui's anger continued to rise. As expected, he was always inferior to Liu Zhang when it came to scolding.
"Liu Zhang, you are the extremely cunning traitor, you..."
"shut up!"
Liu Zhang immediately interrupted Han Sui. Since the conversation had turned into a naked personal attack, Liu Zhang would not be polite.
"You stupid pig will betray your own nation everywhere! Either you collude with the Qiang people or the Xianbei people. Only these stupid aliens are willing to join forces with you!"
"Do you know why no Han people want to pay attention to you? Haha, because you don't deserve it!"
"Those who are close to vermillion are red and those who are close to ink are black! You bitch is a naked waste!"
"Not long ago, I personally destroyed an army of 40,000 people, and now I am bringing another 300,000 people to die!"
"I'm too lazy to talk to you. Scolding you is just dirtying my mouth! If you have the ability, hurry up and come over and let me see what kind of rotten fish and shrimps are under your command!"
