"Kill! Kill! Kill!" Xiahou Dun heard the shouts of killing, and his expression was agitated. This was the first time the war had started. The city walls were basically invisible. They were all piled up with human corpses. Cao Jun was exhausted. , Yuan Jun on the top of the city worked even harder. Not only was he physically affected, but he was also under tremendous psychological pressure!
"Siege the city! Kill them!" The machete blade in Le Jin's hand has been curled up, but he still doesn't get out of the line of fire. "The first one to climb will get a thousand gold coins and be granted the title of Marquis of ten thousand households!" Since Ju Yi's first dead soldier was defeated, this There are no real pioneers in the world, the rest are brave and extraordinary soldiers!
"Prepare to defend, Cao's army is about to attack the city!" Zhang Xun said bitterly as he watched the slow and powerful hammer being carried towards the city gate. After this battle, it can be said that there is no material in the city, and the residents All the houses have been demolished, and every soldier is gone!
"General, can we still hold on?" Zhang Xun's soldiers asked
"I'm still there, the soldiers are still there, Runan is still there, why can't we defend it?" Zhang Xun said with a smile. Although he was smiling, his expression was almost like crying. There are 200,000 elite soldiers, and there are less than 30,000 left after the battle. , even if the battle is won, it is estimated that there will be only a few people left, and Cao Mengde on the opposite side is basically all new troops, and even some farmers and transportation troops, the real elites will only lose 50,000 people!
"But Cheng Feng hasn't come out. I'm afraid that he is blocking our way out. There is not much food and grass now, and many brothers have become food..." Chen Lan's voice became softer as he spoke, and the haze in his heart lingered!
"What you plan is for people and God is for you. Two generals, prepare to die for your country!" Zhang Xun said with a bitter smile.
"Prime Minister, the Qingzhou Army is here!" Cheng Yu said excitedly while Cao Cao was watching!
"Oh? Are they new recruits again?"
"No, they are General Xiahou's personal soldiers and the earliest Qingzhou soldiers. They have put down the elite soldiers of the Yanzhou rebellion!"
"Okay! Well done, let them rest and then prepare to attack the city!"
"promise!"
When the two sides were confronting each other, Cheng Feng, who had returned from transporting grain and grass, mobilized his troops and took advantage of the darkness to fight all the way to Hefei. In the early morning sunshine, he could already see the city wall of Hefei from a distance!
Hefei, a city in the Three Kingdoms, was the only way for Soochow to go north, and it was also the place where Zhang Liao became famous.
"My lord, you can easily capture Hefei. Are you so willing to let Cao Cao and the others divide Yuan Shu's territory equally?" Guo Jia said with a smile.
"Haha, even if I want to take more territory, I can't take it!" Cheng Feng said with a smile, "Hefei is a key place. Even people like me may not be able to hold it. How can we send troops to occupy the place again? If I If we take Jiujiang and Lujiang again, I guess Tiger Sun Jian will have to fight with me!"
"Just adapt to the situation!" Guo Jia said nonchalantly. Who can say clearly or control everything in this world!
"Has there been any news from the Emperor recently?" Cheng Feng suddenly asked as if he had remembered something.
"When the emperor stays in the palace, he is just planning the future with his uncle Dong Cheng and Zhang Fu. It's a pity that it's just a mirror and a mirror!" Guo Jiadao
"Hmph, two people who succeed more than fail. Without them, the emperor's life might be a little better. I'm afraid something happened on Cao Cao's way back. Liu Xie's good days are probably over!" Cheng Feng sneered. road
"The Emperor is not a simple-minded person. I am afraid that only Cao Cao can control him now, otherwise the world may shed more blood!" Guo Jia took a sip of wine and squinted his eyes.
"Emperor? Without Xun Yu here, I'm afraid there would be no emperor now. You don't really think Cao Cao is so easy to talk to, do you? Even if Cao Cao is really a Han minister, the people under his command are not necessarily Han ministers!" Cheng Fengyi pointed out, after all, there was a case of a yellow robe in later generations!
"So, there's going to be a fire in Cao Mengde's backyard?" Guo Jia's eyes widened and he asked in surprise.
"Ignore all that for now, take Hefei first, get your people moving, and open the city gate for me in the middle of the night!" Cheng Feng said
"Don't worry, it has been arranged a long time ago, but you have to wait three days!" Guo Jia said with a smile.
"Why?"
"A batch of grain and grass will arrive in two days, why not wait!" Guo Jia said with a smile.
"Haha, great job, just wait a moment. Thank you Captain Yuan!" Cheng Feng was delighted.
"Captain Yuan?"
"Yuan Shu, you're the captain of the transportation team!" Wu Tiangang looked at Guo Jia with some confusion and quickly said
"Haha, wonderful! Wonderful! Just these four words make it clear!" Guo Jia laughed.
"Boom!" A bolt of lightning flashed across, making the sky less gloomy. The Hefei guard didn't know why, but he always felt a little panicked! "What's going on? Why are you always so frightened? Is there something wrong with Runan? You, go and see if the grain and grass have arrived?"
"Yes, General!" The soldier ran out quickly and came back shortly. "General, the food and grass have been transported. When the weather clears, they will be shipped to Runan!"
"Okay, take strict precautions and proceed with caution. Tomorrow, we will send spies to Runan to find out the news, and then we will deliver the grain and grass!" When the guard heard the news of the arrival of the grain and grass, he felt less uneasy, but he was still a little uncomfortable!
"General, you'd better go and rest. This heavy rain probably won't stop for a while!" said the soldier.
"I'm terrified today. I'm afraid something is going to happen. No, I have to go to the tower for inspection!" said the guard.
"General, it's because you've been too tired for the past few days. It's raining heavily now, not to mention people, even the wild animals in the mountains, so you'd better go get some rest early. I'll go inspect this tower!" said the soldier.
"Okay, pay attention to safety and be careful!" The guard is indeed tired. There are many things to deal with every day. The number of refugees in Hefei is increasing day by day. Many people from Shouchun, Runan, have come to Hefei. He has been very anxious lately!
"Don't worry, General. I'll go to the refugees immediately after my inspection. I'm afraid many people will get sick on this heavy rainy day!" said the soldier.
"Okay! If all of these people have the same thoughts as you, it will save me a lot of trouble!" the guard said with emotion,
"The general is ridiculous! My subordinates are resigning!"
"It's better to be young!" The guard said with emotion as he watched the soldiers walk out.
"Brother Zhang, why did you come to the city gate today?" A soldier immediately shouted enthusiastically when he saw the guard's soldiers.
"What the hell, special treatment during special times. This has messed up everything. I'll do a patrol for the general!" said the soldier surnamed Zhang.
"Alas! There is no way! Anyone who wants to eat this bowl of rice has to keep his head in his belt! I heard that Xiaoyao Hou Chengfeng is personally attacking Runan. I wonder if the generals can stop him?" said the guard.
"This is not something we should consider anymore. We should just defend the city honestly! By the way, are there any special circumstances today?" the guard asked
"It's raining so hard that you can't even see the other side. Who's coming out? I say Brother Zhang, you should also go back and take advantage of the heavy rain to have a good rest. Maybe we will start a war in the next few days!"
"It makes sense, you guys should work harder!" The soldier thought for a while and said, what the guard said makes sense, the heavy rain is annoying enough, who would go out in the rain, it would be to die!
The two talked for a while and then separated. Neither of them noticed the color in the other's eyes. In fact, they were both trying to find ways to distract each other and open the door for Cheng Feng. The guard was an ordinary citizen and a member of the Guo Jia Beggar Clan. Elite disciples, as for the personal guards, they are the imperial guards arranged by Guo Jia in various cities. These people do not know each other. They may know from their actions that they have a common goal, but their identities are concealed from each other. !
"Boom!" Another bolt of lightning flashed across, and the rain in the sky seemed to be getting heavier again. It poured on the ground outside the city, making a crackling sound. The guard knew that this was Chengfeng's army that had arrived under the city wall, and everything was ready. Be prepared, just wait until you open the city gate!
"Shout! Brother Zhang, you haven't slept yet?" Just when the guard decided to open the city gate at the risk of his life, he suddenly found that the guard named Zhang came over again, greeting him with a smile on his face, but in fact, he was always cheating in his heart. Greetings!
"Well! I can't sleep. Come and take a look. You guys are not lazy today!" the guard said absently.
"Hey, didn't you tell me that you have to do your best, especially in recent times?" The guard said as he moved closer to the guard, and at the same time kept gesticulating with his other hand behind him!
The guard surnamed Zhang felt that the guard was more enthusiastic and a little abnormal today than before, and he couldn't help but secretly be on guard. Suddenly his eyes flashed, because he saw many beggars taking shelter at the base of the city wall, and then he As they approached, they kept moving. Although they seemed to be avoiding themselves, there was no one who came out of Changshan Military Academy. These beggars were looking for the most advantageous position to attack. At the same time, they were also The city gate is being surrounded! If the guard doesn't understand the situation after seeing this, then the three years he spent at Changshan Academy were really in vain!
"Well done! The general has gone to bed, you don't have to wait any longer!" Xiao Zhang patted the guard on the shoulder, smiled slightly, and then turned around easily and walked into the darkness!
After hearing this, the guard's eyes suddenly opened wide and he couldn't help but tremble. Because when the guard turned around, he saw the clothes hidden under the black cloak. That is the goal that people like them strive for all their lives, the flying fish suit and the embroidered spring knife!
"Jinyiwei!" The guard couldn't help but trembled!
"Silence!" A beggar came over and said, "Get ready to open the door and welcome the lord into the city!"
"Yes! Elder!"
"Squeak!" Under the cover of thunder, the city gate of Hefei was slowly opened. After seeing it, Cheng Feng didn't talk too much. He waved his big halberd and the army slowly entered the city. The whole process could be said to be without any noise. No sound, only the rain washed away the traces!
"Who is that?" Suddenly, a sharp shout resounded on the tower, but unfortunately it was muffled by the thunder. Cheng Feng threw his halberd and nailed the person to the tower!
"Do not disturb the people. Those who surrender will not be killed. Take the city lord's palace first. Wu Tiangang will lead people to guard the granary. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!" Cheng Feng pulled out the Zhenwu Sword Dao
"Kill!" The army roared, running straight towards its target like water, making the members of the Beggar Gang behind them both envious and jealous!
The guard of Hefei was having a sweet dream. Although he didn't know what he was dreaming about, looking at his teeth and the lewd smile on his face, you knew that the dream must be good. When Wu Tiangang's sword was placed on his neck, When I went to bed, I still snored non-stop!
"What's going on?" Cheng Feng couldn't help but laugh. This guy must be too nervous. The knife is even on his neck, but he can still sit firmly on the Diaoyutai and sleep soundly!
"Uh, I gave him the sweat medicine!" the guard said, and at the same time couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, for fear that Cheng Feng would kill him. After all, Changshan's military regulations are strict!
"Wake him up!" Cheng Feng was also speechless, but this method was quite good. He didn't know how many people Guo Jia had trained, but he could be so close to the general!
"What's going on? Who are you? How brave! How dare you leave your post without authorization!" It was obvious that the guard had not understood what was going on. Seeing that there were more than a dozen people watching him sleeping here, he was both ashamed and a little angry. , I couldn’t help but roar right now!
"Pah!" Wu Tiangang was not used to it, and he shouted directly with a big ear-scratching sound, which made the guard wake up a lot!
"Who are you?" The guard felt that something was wrong, because the armor of these people looked more and more unfamiliar. It was not the armor of Yuan Shu's army at all. This was the most sophisticated armor he had ever seen!
"Boldly rebel! Xiaoyao Hou is here, why don't you kneel down quickly!" Wu Tiangang said angrily, and at the same time, the knife in his hand was placed directly on the guard's neck!
"Boom!" From the moment he heard the three words Xiaoyao Hou, the guard's head exploded. This is really a person sleeping on the bed, and the goods came from the sky!
"Mr. Marquis, spare your life, I'll see you, Mister Marquis!" the guard said incoherently, while his head kept making banging sounds like pounding garlic. After a while, his forehead was covered with blood. He was now scared. Damn it, everyone knows Chengfeng’s reputation!
"Get up!" Cheng Feng frowned and couldn't help but feel helpless, because the guy in front of him was so scared that he peed!
"Thank you, Lord Marquis, for not killing him!" The guard was also a man of quick thinking. He first used words to block Cheng Feng's road, thus creating a situation where Cheng Feng would not kill him!
"Haha! Death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be escaped. If you are dishonest at all, I will make your life worse than death!" Cheng Feng said coldly. After all, it feels uncomfortable to be tricked!
"Ah!" The guard was stunned for a moment, and then he knelt down with a mournful face and silently regretted it!
"How many men and horses are there in the city, and how much food and grass are there here!" Wu Tiangang got Cheng Feng's hint and asked. At the same time, he kept rubbing the knife in his hand, and he had the style of killing if he disagreed!
"There are only three thousand soldiers and horses in the city, but there is a lot of food and grass. The people have been moved to Shouchun by His Majesty, no, by the rebel Yuan Shu!" The guard hurriedly spoke, fearing that he would be interrupted by Wu Tiangang if he spoke too late!
"Then why are there so many beggars!" Wu Tiangang asked, the people have moved away, why are they still accepting refugees?
"This is all Xiao Zhang's suggestion, saying how we can use their strength to defend the city. The houses in the city are empty, which is perfect for taking them in!" As the guard was talking, he suddenly noticed that a strong man next to him was very He looked familiar, "Ah! It's you! Xiao Zhang!" The guard's eyes were as wide as copper bells, and his mouth could probably hold an egg. When he saw this, he understood everything. The person he trusted the most had betrayed him! "When did you take refuge with the Marquis?"
"Zhang Jundong, the commander of the Jinyiwei, has always been the Marquis's man!" Xiao Zhang said with a smile.
"That's it! I hope Lord Marquis can treat my more than 3,000 brothers kindly. Kill or chop them into pieces as I please!" the guard said lonelyly.
"You are not qualified to negotiate terms with me. You have only two choices. The first is to pick up your knife and lead your brothers to Runan. The second is to surrender!" Cheng Feng said coldly, while casting a glance at Xiao Zhang. I was a little dissatisfied with him for revealing his identity without permission, and Xiao Zhang was sweating coldly when he saw it!
"How can a defeated general speak bravely? Since he is captured, let him do whatever he wants!" The guard has also recovered a little and is no longer so lonely!
"Okay, then I'll let you go. As for whether you go to Runan or Shouchun, it's up to you!" Cheng Feng said
"Thank you Lord Marquis for not killing me!" the guard said with a salute.
Watching the soldiers from Hefei go away, Zhang Jundong couldn't help but feel a chill running down his back, because he just discovered that half of the three thousand troops were members of the Beggar Clan and Jinyiwei. As for the Jinyiwei personnel, they kept it secret from each other, and he didn't know it either. Who is his colleague? Now he regrets being exposed even more!
"Please punish me, Lord Marquis!" Seeing Cheng Feng approaching, Zhang Jundong quickly saluted.
"Get up, what's the crime? But I can't let you be an undercover agent in the future, after all, you have been exposed! Let's go to Changshan immediately and be responsible for training manpower and collecting intelligence!" Cheng Feng said with a smile,
"Thank you, Mr. Hou!" Zhang Jundong couldn't help but said excitedly.
"Lord! Hefei is all under control, I don't know what to do next?" Wu Tiangang said excitedly
"Send the order to Guo Jia, and the army will enter the city, then hang up the Black Dragon Flag, recruit nearby refugees and soldiers, and at the same time repair the city walls and build the city. I will build Hefei into the second Changshan Mountain!"
Cheng Feng said with a smile on his face
"Yes! Lord!"
On the fifth day after Cheng Feng captured Hefei, Yuan Shu, Zhang Xun and others received the news. The difference was that Yuan Shu just smiled slightly, saying that the problem was not big, and then plunged into the harem. He has been busy recently He was exhausted from choosing concubines. Regardless of whether she was a big girl or not, those who fell in love with her were basically drawn into the harem. There were not only women from the common people, but also women from many aristocratic families, as well as some ministers. His wife and daughter filled the entire Shouchun with an aura of obscenity, and after Zhang Xun received the news. The whole person is feeling bad, because the loss of Hefei shows that he has no way out.
