The generals of the Han army looked at Liu Bei with great interest, mainly because they were more interested in this boy. The last time they met, he was an unknown guy. He was not as famous as Zhang Fei and Guan Yu. Now he has become famous after not seeing him for a few days!
"Please tell General Liu about the strength of this treasure and the defense of Quyang City!" Huangfu Chong looked at Liu Bei curiously and said! This Liu Bei is majestic, but his ears are a bit big, his arms are a bit long, and he doesn't have the historical hanging ears and shoulders, and his hands are above his knees!
"Generals! Zhang Bao now has about 60,000 cavalry and more than 50,000 infantry, a total of 120,000 people! After Zhang Bao's reinforcements, Xiaquyang now has high walls and thick pools, making it difficult to attack!" Liu Bei briefly explained what he knew. The situation was revealed, but after another three days, they didn't know Zhang Bao's movements. After all, all the Han army spies near Xiaquyang were killed by the Yellow Turban Army!
"So what's going on with Zhang Bao recently?" Cao Cao asked. Regarding the war, Cao Cao had an almost mysterious feeling. He always felt that Zhang Bao would make a big move this time!
"I don't know about this. All our scouts were killed by Zhang Bao. If the generals hadn't arrived, we would have become Zhang Bao's killers!" Liu Bei smiled bitterly. This was also the truth, but the questioner asked Cao Cao was a little embarrassed. He had forgotten about this. They, the defeated generals, could not get far out of the camp, let alone go to Xia Quyang to inquire about news!
"Miaocai, you quickly lead the cavalry to find out the news. Remember to be careful!" Cao Cao turned around and quietly told Xia Houyuan. If you don't understand the situation well, this war will be a failure. The most skilled person is the cavalry here. Xia Houyuan and Yan Liangwen were ugly, but it was difficult for me to mobilize them, so I had to let Xia Houyuan go. Cao Cao had repeatedly warned him to be careful, for fear that this clan brother would have a bad temper!
"Well! In that case, how about the army rest for a day or two before making plans?" At this time, Yuan Shao suddenly said. Compared to others, he has never fought against Zhang Bao, and he is not very familiar with Zhang Bao's power. It’s clear, plus this kid has a suspicious personality, and there’s no clear news right now, so I just want to wait!
"No! This must not be done! As the saying goes, soldiers are more valuable than speed. Now that we have come here, we need to use soldiers to test the enemy's situation first. What's more, we have many soldiers, so our actions will inevitably be delayed. If Zhang Bao seizes the opportunity, Being caught off guard will affect morale! So now we have to march and attack to see Zhang Bao's troop deployment!" As soon as Yuan Shao finished speaking, Sun Jian objected.
"Oh! That's what Wen Tai thinks!" Zhu Jun's face lit up when he heard Sun Jian speak. It can be seen from this that Sun Jian's ability is indeed superior to Yuan Shao's. In terms of his understanding of the use of soldiers, he is worthy of it. Descendants of the military sage Sun Wuzi!
"That's right! Soldiers are valuable and quick. I also agree with Wentai!" Lu Zhi said at this time, "Now we don't know Zhang Bao's preparations, and he also doesn't know our choices. We can't wait, so we should attack. Even if we need to rest, we have to arrive at the city before we talk!" Lu Zhi's words made everyone nod. In fact, they all understood that the most important thing to do now is to start a war. Only by doing this can we kill Zhang Bao as quickly as possible. This is what they are here for. They calculated against each other to see whose troops they could consume. That is to say, Sun Jian and Cao Cao were still loyal to the Han Dynasty. They wanted to end the war as soon as possible. After all, they had their own territory so that they could go back and develop their power! As for the three heroes of the Eastern Han Dynasty, they just wanted to kill Zhang Bao quickly. Due to the calculation of a group of people, the Han army was dispatched en masse and rushed to the foot of Quyang City!
"Hmph! The Han army came so fast! What a pity. Give me another two days to open up the communication channel with the Qiang people. Then there will be more choices!" After Zhang Bao got the news, he looked sad and angry. , I didn’t expect that these guys who were plotting against each other would be so united this time!
"Your Majesty! Should we take the initiative to attack!" Zhang Bao's cronies asked. After all, they have deployed 50,000 cavalry outside and can attack the Han army at any time.
"No! Good steel is used on the blade. If they are at a disadvantage when fighting the Han army head-on, they can use them to engage in harassment tactics. This group of people can tire my third brother to death, and I can tire them to death too." !" Zhang Bao said coldly with a crazy light in his eyes. His cold tone made the soldiers who heard this shiver in the hot weather!
"Send an order for the cavalry to harass the Han army's camp at night, attack from all directions, and fire more rockets!" Zhang Bao said coldly, "Others go up to the city wall and be prepared for the Han army to attack the city!"
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
After Zhang Bao made arrangements, he walked around the city again, looked at the Yellow Turban Army's defenses, and collected a lot of stones and other things to guard the city wall. Against the menacing Han army, Zhang Bao Do your best to kill them.
"Lord! The investigation is clear. Zhang Bao has been compressing the army inside the city. Some of Zhang Bao's cavalry stayed outside the city, but they couldn't find their foothold!" Xia Houyuan told Cao Cao about his investigation situation, and Cao Cao hurriedly Went to find Huangfu Chong.
"What? Is Zhang Bao inside the city or outside the city? If Zhang Bao cannot be eliminated this time, it will not be considered a success!" Zhu Jun frowned and said?
"This is not clear yet, but there is a high chance that Zhang Bao is in the city, but we cannot rule out the possibility of him withdrawing from the city early. Our repelling troops cannot get close to the city at all. In addition, Zhang Bao's cavalry is also a threat outside. They can be there at any time. You can cut off our food routes!" Cao Cao said
"I know all this. The most important thing now is to find out Zhang Bao's location!" Zhu Jun said
"That's easy! We'll attack in a moment and see how the Yellow Turban Army counterattacks. Everyone, pay more attention to the movements on the city wall!" Huangfu Chong said with a smile. With the experience of attacking Guangzong City, he is now particularly interested in siege warfare. In order to To deal with Zhang Bao, he specially brought all the cloth bags over. If it weren't for cleaning up those cloth bags, the Han army would have arrived three days earlier!
"Fire arrows!" As the two armies fired at each other, the Han army left corpses lying on the ground. The most powerful weapon for defending the city was bows and arrows. Unfortunately, the cost was too high. Zhang Bao had accumulated more than 200,000 pieces of iron for many years. Arrows, Zhang Bao feels distressed every time they are sent out. They are pure iron arrows, and they are all money! Although this kind of luxurious consumable is expensive, the effect is very good. The Han army simply cannot withstand this kind of attack. Compared with the iron-headed arrow, the whole iron arrow is more lethal! "Hmph! Let's see if you still dare to attack. Remember next time, use iron arrows to kill the cavalry, use ordinary bows and arrows to deal with the Han infantry, and try your best to kill them!" Zhang Bao laughed loudly, Unexpectedly, the first wave of Han army's attack was repelled so easily!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The morale of the Yellow Turban Army was high. They slapped the weapons in their hands and let out roars, which made Lu Zhi and others smile bitterly. They had never seen the morale of Zhang Bao's troops so high. It seems that it will happen again this time. It’s a hard battle!
"Infantry, put up shields! Attack!" Huangfu Chong shouted. Since the cavalry can't rush through, we can only use infantry to slowly grind it out. Although the efficiency is lower, it is effective. The Han army puts up shields in front and everyone behind them carries them. Carrying a big bag full of soil, I rushed forward step by step.
"Hmph! Roll wood and rocks! Rockets, pour hot water!" Zhang Bao ordered, and the scalding hot water was poured directly on the big shield. The Han soldiers let out heart-piercing screams, threw away the shields one after another, and then Tragically shot! Zhang Bao has been hiding in the dark giving orders and never officially showed up. This has always made the Han army very confused. The purpose of the attack by Huangfu Chong and others was to determine Zhang Bao's position. This tentative attack had no effect at all!
"Damn it!" Huangfu Chong wished he could go into battle in person. The Yellow Turban general under his command was so professional that he repelled two Han attacks before even showing his face. This made several famous generals a little unhappy!
"General, how about I go attack the city!" Sun Jian said at this time. Sun Jian was famous for his bravery. As long as Sun Jian took action, he would basically win. However, this time it was to test the strength of the Yellow Turban Army. We don't need a warrior of this level, otherwise if something goes wrong, we won't have anywhere to cry!
"Wait a minute! We haven't determined Zhang Bao's position yet. We don't need a large-scale attack!" Zhu Jun said. Since it is a test, there is no need to fight too hard. In fact, Zhu Jun also figured out that since the person commanding the Yellow Turban Army Very powerful. It doesn’t matter whether it’s Zhang Bao or not. Just kill them. The only trouble is that Zhang Bao is afraid of running away with the cavalry. Now the Han army is making a show of force to make the Yellow Turban Army feel like they can win. Only in this way can they be gathered here and eliminated together!
"Report to the general! Unparalleled Marquis Zhao Yun has come to help!" Yan Liang suddenly came to report. He was patrolling outside and thought he had encountered the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army. He was about to make a surprise attack when he suddenly discovered that it was Zhao Yun. This made him overjoyed. ! With Zhao Yun joining him, he would be confident in dealing with the Yellow Turban Army's cavalry!
"What? Zhao Yun is here! Okay! Haha!" Huangfu Chong laughed. It seems that Cheng Feng was also angry, otherwise he would not have sent Zhao Yun over at this critical moment. With Zhao Yun's deterrence, the Yellow Turban Army wanted to come You will also be scared. After all, Zhao Yun’s reputation was built on Zhang Bao. Zhao Yun’s arrival must be the biggest surprise for Vanilla!
"Hello, generals!" Zhao Yun greeted the generals with a smile. It seemed that he had been like this for a long time, and he looked like a little fox.
"Greetings to Marquis Wushuang!" Many soldiers shouted enthusiastically. Their admiration and admiration for Zhao Yun are beyond description in words, especially since many veterans had witnessed Zhao Yun's feat of charging into the formation with their own eyes. Now that I’m seeing a real person again, the excitement is truly unimaginable!
"Brush" Zhao Yun waved the spear in his hand, and everyone's voices suddenly stopped. The Han army had never been so uniform before. Even their commanders and generals were blushing at this time. Their own soldiers were so obedient to outsiders! "Everyone disperse, have a good rest, and charge with me later!" Zhao Yun said calmly as he saw that the play was almost over. When Zhao Yun said this, everyone ran away in a hurry. Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and others looked at them with speechless faces. What the hell is going on!
"Wushuang Hou is indeed mighty and majestic!" Zhu Jun said with a smile, he really liked Zhao Yun from the bottom of his heart!
"Lord Zhu, you are so flattering! Yun is young and ignorant, and has done many things inappropriately. I hope you generals will take care of you!" What Zhao Yun said so beautifully, without losing his status and looking less arrogant! The three old generals nodded repeatedly. This young man is not bad. He is a talented man with both civil and military skills!
"Wu Shuang Hou is so polite! Your record is obvious to all! This time I want to leave the task of annihilating Zhang Bao's cavalry to you, but I don't know how difficult it will be!" Zhu Jun said, although he knew that Zhao Yun would not refuse, but thought of Zhao Yun's identity , Zhu Jun still asks!
"No problem, if you use Zhao Yun's place, Yun Wan will die without hesitation!" As soon as Zhao Yun opened his mouth, Lu Zhi and others showed expressions as expected, "However, I still need to borrow something from General Cao!" Zhao Yun suddenly turned his head. Speaking to Cao Cao made Cao Cao, who was originally smiling, feel a little bit in his heart. Why does this have to do with me? "I wonder what General Zhao wants to borrow?" Although Cao Cao didn't understand Zhao Yun's intention, he still asked. You must know that Chengfeng is the richest man, whether it is soldiers or food and grass, he is the richest man here. Cao Cao really doesn't I know what Zhao Yun wants to borrow!
"I'll lend it to General Xiahou Yuan! Don't worry, General Cao, Zhao Yun promises to send General Xiahou Yuan back in perfect condition!" Zhao Yun said because he was afraid that Cao Cao would be worried!
"Haha! Okay! Let Miaocai learn how to fight from Wushuang Hou!" Cao Cao laughed. Although Zhao Yun was younger than them, Cao Cao did not dare to underestimate him at all. Now that Zhao Yun actually wants to borrow Xia Houyuan's power, it is even more frustrating. Cao Cao was happy. He finally had a chance to get in touch with him and get to know Cheng Feng's strength secretly! Thinking of this, Cao Cao turned to Xia Houyuan and said, "Miaocai, you can lead the cavalry and fight with Wushuang Hou. Learn from General Zhao how to defeat the enemy!"
"Yes! Lord!" Xia Houyuan said excitedly, then he smiled like a flower and stood behind Zhao Yun! Seeing him happy is really speechless. Why are you so excited?
"I wonder how many troops General Zhao has brought to help this time?" Yuan Shao suddenly said. He saw that everyone's eyes were focused on Zhao Yun, and he felt a little unhappy. After all, he was also the eldest son of the Yuan family, the fourth generation and the third prince. , how can you let others steal the limelight so casually? Cheng Feng has a lot of tricks, but Yuan Shao can't compare with him. As for Zhao Yun, Yuan Shao doesn't look down on you at all, a warrior who only knows how to rush into battle!
"Haha! Zhao Yun came here on behalf of Jizhou Mu Xiaoyao Hou Chengfeng this time. He didn't bring many men and horses, only 5,000 troops and horses from his headquarters!" Zhao Yun didn't like Yuan Shao at all. He felt uncomfortable looking at him. Now he heard Yuan Shao's words Discourse. He also said coldly and rudely.
"Hmph! How effective can a mere five thousand men be?" Yuan Shao disagreed. In the past, Zhao Yun always charged into the battle by himself. One word "brave" can sum up Zhao Yun's fighting style, so Yuan Shao has always disliked him because he himself He felt that Zhao Yun had stolen a lot of his limelight. The attack just didn't go well, and now Yuan Shao was depressed. Now that he saw Zhao Yun enjoying the treatment of all the stars, he felt even more unbalanced!
Zhao Yun glanced at Yuan Shao coldly and said slowly, "I, Zhao Yun, can stop millions of Yellow Turban troops by myself!" Zhao Yun's tone was low, but very firm, making everyone who heard it involuntarily believe it. He and even Yuan Shao wanted to say a few sarcastic words, but seeing a group of people showing dissatisfaction with him, they had no choice but to shrug and keep the words in their stomachs!
"Since Marquis Wushuang is so confident, why not leave the siege to Marquis Wushuang!" Although he stopped making sarcastic remarks, Yuan Shao also took the opportunity to give Zhao Yun eye drops. Can't you fight? This will let you attack the city!
"Hmph! I just handed over the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army to Marquis Wushuang to deal with. Could it be that I don't have any other ideas?" At this time, Zhu Jun was not happy. This Yuan Shao was obviously here to cause trouble. With the help of the family, he With support behind me, I want to cause trouble now!
"I can also deal with the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army. This siege is a top priority. It needs someone like Wushuang Hou to command it. After all, those who are capable work hard, and good steel is used on the blade!" Yuan Shao was not disturbed! Zhu Jun, please be frightened, you are a tiger without claws and fangs, you have no lethality at all. You must know that the situation in this dynasty is controlled by aristocratic families and eunuchs. This group of Han generals with no background, after the Yellow Turban Army is defeated, it will be you. Time to exit!
Several people frowned slightly. Although Yuan Shao was more arrogant, this statement was not unreasonable. Today they had tested Zhang Bao. The siege battle was indeed difficult. Zhao Yun was with Cheng Feng. There must be many ways. If Letting him command the siege operations should be able to achieve good results. Thinking that everyone was focusing on Zhao Yun, they wanted to see what he had to say.
"Haha! If that's the case, then the command here must be handed over to me!" Zhao Yun suddenly sneered, which made Yuan Shao's face change. No one expected that Zhao Yun did not talk about the war, but actually said this directly. To be honest, for the three veteran generals, they didn't care who commanded them. Anyway, they didn't have private soldiers. As long as they could kill the Yellow Turban Army, they were happy to let Zhao Yun take command, so that they could consume Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, because Everyone can see that Cao Cao is still a loyal minister, but this Yuan Shao is a thorn in the side and may cause chaos in the future!
"Sun Jian is willing to listen to the orders of Marquis Wushuang!" At this time, Sun Jian suddenly saluted and said, "Master, Yuan Shao forced Zhao Yun, didn't you, I will also cheat you today!"
"Cao Cao is also willing to listen to Wushuang Hou's orders." Boss Cao is also a master of last-ditch attacks. Anyway, Xia Houyuan has loaned them out. His hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses are all the newly reorganized Black Mountain Army. Even if they are defeated, he will not feel bad. He can still The most important thing to earn a good reputation is to trick Yuan Shao, so why not do it!
"Liu Bei is willing to obey the orders!" As the most sinister Liu Da'er in the Three Kingdoms, when he saw the opportunity to consume his opponents, he would not miss anything. Although he did not have many troops, he must have this attitude!
The amazing manipulations of several people made Yuan Shao's face change endlessly. Unexpectedly, these guys suddenly played such a trick, which made Yuan Shao feel that he was too big this time. He lifted a rock and hit his own feet. It was still the same kind of flesh and blood. Fuzzy, I still have to smile!
"Several generals are invited, so Na Yun is more respectful than obedient. I just don't know what General Yuan will do? Is he going to deal with the cavalry? Or is he going to attack the city? Or lead the troops to fight alone!" At the end of the sentence, Zhao Yun said with an obvious tone. It turned cold, and Yuan Shao looked like he was going to kill him if he didn't answer well, which made Yuan Shao break into a cold sweat. If Zhao Yun was really determined to kill him at this close range, it would be useless even if he had an army of millions. Yes, the Five Steps Land is a paradise for the brave! In the end, under everyone's gaze, Yuan Shao had no choice but to relent and said, "Yuan Shao is willing to obey the orders!"
"Okay! In this case, let Wushuang Hou unified the command, and all the generals will work together to kill the enemy and strive to put down the Yellow Turban Army as soon as possible!" Lu Zhi said with a smile, finally throwing out this hot potato, these Han generals are not It's easy to control. Now it's in Zhao Yun's hands. It depends on his ability!
