"My lord, there is a subordinate who has a candidate who can save our Beihai County from danger. Wu Anguo looked at Kong Rong with a confident look.

"Oh, who is it that deserves to be so convinced by Anguo, I would like to hear it. ”

Kong Rong deliberately put on a curious look on his face, in fact, he knew in his heart that the candidate Wu Anguo wanted to talk about was Yuan Shao. When the time comes, Kong Rong can only agree to ask Yuan Shao for help with half a push, which is not against his will.

"My lord, do you remember the three Pingyuan Xiang brothers who fought with Lu Bu at the time of the Tiger Prison Pass?"

Hearing Wu Anguo's words, Kong Rong really showed a surprised expression this time. Kong Rong is a famous Confucian scholar, and his reputation among the world's scholars is only a little worse than Cai Yong and other great Confucians in the world. However, because Kong Rong has the extra points of his identity as a descendant of Confucius, he can almost be compared with Cai Yong. Therefore, Kong Rong, who is so famous, actually doesn't have much impression of Liu Bei.

In history, Kong Rong asked Tai Shici to go to the plains to find Liu Bei for help, and Liu Bei said, "Kong Beihai still knows that there is Liu Beihu in the world", so Liu Bei went to Beihai County to help Kong Rong. In fact, the reason why Kong Rong thought of asking Liu Bei for help was because of Wu Anguo's reminder.

Wu Anguo has fought with Lu Bu and knows how strong Lu Bu's strength is. However, the three brothers Liu Guanzhang were able to fight to a draw with Lu Bu, and finally repelled Lu Bu. Of course, in fact, it was because of the existence of Liu Bei, a dead-stirring stick, that Lu Bu could not fight with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to his heart's content, so he gave up fighting. The world does not know the truth of the facts, and only thinks that Lu Bu was defeated and the three brothers Liu Guanzhang won. Wu Anguo and Lu Bu have a broken arm, so Wu Anguo also pays more attention to Lu Bu, so he indirectly understands the three brothers Liu Guanzhang.

However, no matter what, Wu Anguo knew that the three brothers Liu Guanzhang were very powerful. Moreover, the Plains Country is not willing to be far from the North Sea, and if it is a rapid march, it will take two or three days to reach the North Sea.

"Isn't it the Liu Bei who claims to be a relative of the Han family?"

Kong Rong really doesn't know Liu Bei very well, and his understanding of Liu Bei is only limited to Liu Bei's self-introduction. There's no way, once you get involved with the Han family, it's easy to give people a little impression. Every time Liu Bei sees someone, he has to call himself like this, he has already memorized the lines, and the language and actions are coordinated, which is naturally easier for people to remember.

"My lord, it's that Liu Bei!"

Wu Anguo nodded affirmatively, a look of admiration appeared on his face, and praised: "On that day, the princes of the Eighteenth Route crusaded against Dong Zhuo, but Lu Bu alone stopped hundreds of thousands of troops. In the end, it was the three Liu Bei brothers who defeated Lu Bu and forced Dong Zhuo to retreat to Chang'an, which is really a model that my generation should learn. ”

Listening to Wu Anguo's words, a trace of embarrassment flashed on Kong Rong's face, he was also a member of the alliance of the eighteenth princes, and what Wu Anguo said obviously included him in it. However, although Kong Rong had the pedantry of a scholar, he also inherited Confucius's broad-mindedness, and he was not angry with Wu Anguo because of this.

Wu Anguo seemed to think that he was talking to Kong Rong, smiled awkwardly, didn't say anything more, and asked instead: "My lord, what do you think we should ask for help from the plains?"

Kong Rong pondered for a moment and nodded thoughtfully.

There is no need to ask Yuan Shao for help, Kong Rong is obviously more satisfied. As for Liu Bei, today's kingdoms are basically only famous, and it is the prime minister of a country who really controls power. Liu Bei is a plain minister, he must have some troops, and it should not be a big problem to solve the current crisis in Beihai County.

"Anguo, then according to your words, ask for help from the plains. ”

After Kong Rong nodded in agreement with Wu Anguo's proposal, he stopped talking, lowering his head as if thinking about something.

However, Wu Anguo on the side was a little surprised, it seemed that the matter had not been talked about yet, why didn't Kong Rong continue to talk about it? What Wu Anguo thought was that he was going to the plains to find Liu Bei for help, and wouldn't he still have to kill someone out of the city? Kong Rong did not have any powerful generals under his command, and now there was no one else in Yingling City who could handle this matter except him, so it stands to reason that this matter should be talked about at this moment.

Actually, it's not that Kong Rong has forgotten this, but Kong Rong doesn't have much idea at all. Now there is a fierce general Tai Shici in Yingling City, who can kill from outside the city, as long as he takes advantage of the night to kill again, and go to the plains to find Liu Bei for help, is it not a piece of cake? However, Wu Anguo didn't know, so he had to ask out loud.

"My lord, now that I have decided to ask Liu Bei for help, who can take on this important task? Since my subordinates have served my lord, they have not made an inch of merit, and today I am willing to take this responsibility, fight out of the encirclement, and invite Liu Bei here. ”

Wu Anguo stood up with a resolute expression, although he was now a waste. However, he is not disabled, Kong Rong treats him well, even if he fights for this little life, he has to complete this matter for Kong Rong.

Kong Rong hurriedly comforted: "Anguo, there is no need to worry about this matter, I already have a candidate in my heart." ”

Kong Rong knew that Tai Shici was coming to complete the task, but Wu Anguo didn't know! He also thought that Kong Rong felt that he had a broken arm and could not complete the matter, so he quickly stood up and said: "My lord, although my subordinates have lost an arm, they are also confident to complete this task, and they will definitely not disappoint the expectations of the adults. ”

Sometimes, the hearts of disabled people are more sensitive, and what they say to Kong Rong at this moment is obviously angry.

"Anguo, I don't mean to look down on you, but I really have a good candidate. You can rest assured that this person will definitely get the job done, you just have to wait for the results. ”

Kong Rong didn't explain too much, he was afraid that Wu'an would think too much about it, thinking that he had Tai Shici and despise him. Let's not talk about it for the time being, when Tai Shici comes forward, Wu Anguo will know.

Wu Anguo also wondered, he knew all the generals under Kong Rong's command, and there seemed to be no one who could break out of the army. However, seeing that Kong Rong said it so absolutely, Wu Anguo was a little puzzled. It's just that now that Kong Rong has said so, if he says anything more, he is questioning Kong Rong's decision. At the moment, Wu Anguo could only suppress the doubts in his heart and see who could make Kong Rong so confident.

The next day, Tai Shici finished resting, was in excellent condition, and wanted Kong Rong to ask for orders to borrow troops to go out of the city for a decisive battle.

Kong Rong hurriedly persuaded: "Ziyi, Guan Hai, this yellow turban thief is a disease of scabies, so there is no need to worry. Now that Tao Qian in Xuzhou is being invaded by Cao Cao, Tao Qian and I are both courtiers of the court, so naturally I don't want to see such a thing happen. Therefore, I hope Ziyi you can go to the Plains Country to find Liu Bei, the Plains Minister, to come to help, Liu Bei's three brothers are all heroes in the world, with outstanding force, if you can have the help of the three of you, you will definitely be able to repel Cao Cao. ”

Tai Shici didn't know Kong Rong's true thoughts, and thought that Kong Rong had given him more important tasks, and he was even happier in his heart, feeling that he could repay his kindness.

If Tai Shi Ci knew that Kong Rong looked down on the strength of his own soldiers, and did not dare to let Tai Shi Ci fight, he didn't know what he would think in his heart.

That night, Kong Rong opened the west gate of Yingling and ordered the soldiers to beat drums and shout, as if they were going out of the city to fight a decisive battle with Guan Hai.

Since Tai Shi Ci entered Yingling City the day before yesterday, Guan Hai followed the advice of the resourceful Xu Zhi and asked the patrol yellow turban to pay attention to the movements of Yingling City. When the west gate of Yingling City opened, Guan Hai knew it as soon as possible, and hurriedly gathered the army, just waiting for the soldiers in Yingling City to kill, and then a decisive battle.

After Guan Hai gathered the army to the west gate, the north gate of Yingling City was opened, and a general and a horse suddenly rushed out.

At the east, south and north gates, Guan Hai left some Yellow Turban thieves to watch, and when he saw someone rushing out of the North Gate, a leader of the Yellow Turban thieves commanded a subordinate to inform Guan Hai, and this leader led hundreds of people to chase and kill those who went out of the city. These yellow turban thieves are just ordinary people, not to mention these hundreds of people, even if there are thousands, ten thousands, what is Tai Shici afraid of?

At that moment, Tai Shici also forgot his mission for a while, turned around and swung his gun to attack, and more than a dozen people died in the blink of an eye. The leader of the Yellow Turban Thieves didn't know that Tai Shi Ci was powerful at the moment, and felt that his own number was a hundred times that of the other party, even if he lost some people, as long as he captured the guy in front of him, it must be a great credit. At that moment, he shouted angrily and ordered his subordinates to attack Tai Shici. Tai Shi Ci was in high spirits, the spear was pointed out again and again, and there was no fear at all, and after a while, there were already more than 100 people lying beside Tai Shi Ci, and all kinds of tragic deaths woke up the leader of the Yellow Turban Thief who had made meritorious contributions. At this moment, he realized that the other party's strength was not something he could resist, and he didn't care about beckoning his subordinates, turned the horse's head, and wanted to flee.

"Whew!"

The leader of the Yellow Turban Thief only heard a sound of breaking the air in his ears, and his head was not completely turned over, but he found that he could no longer turn his head, and looked down with difficulty, an arrow came out of his throat, and the blood "gurgled" down the arrow, and the leader of the Yellow Turban Thief found that he had been hit by the arrow, and he had no time to cry out in pain, and his eyes were black, and the leader of the Yellow Turban Thief had fallen.

Tai Shi Ci was outstanding in archery when he was twenty years old, and now he has no arrows, so what is the difficulty in shooting the leader of the Yellow Turban Thief?

The leader of the Yellow Turban Thieves was shot, and the remaining Yellow Turban Thieves suddenly fell into a leaderless state, and they were already frightened by Tai Shici's combat power, but at this moment, they were even more frightened to the point that they had no combat power at all. They screamed and ran in all directions, but before they could go far, they spotted a group of men and horses charging towards them fiercely. When these yellow turban thieves looked at people, there was a look of surprise in their eyes, because the people who came were Guan Hai and his henchmen and cronies. Now that Guan Hai is here, can Tai Shi Ci still kill them?

However, these yellow turban thieves were not surprised for long, but they found that Guan Hai and his group of people had gloomy expressions on their faces, and they didn't care about them at all, and they still rushed over fiercely. In the blink of an eye, the remaining more than 100 Yellow Turban thieves were killed by Guan Hai and the people brought by Guan Hai.

Obviously, Guan Hai has no mercy for these deserters.

It turned out that Guan Hai had previously assembled a large army at the west gate of Yingling City, preparing to start a war with Kong Rong. Who knew that Kong Rong was just bluffing, thunder alone did not rain, drums and shouting for a long time, stunned that no soldiers went out of the city to fight them. By the time someone came to inform Guanhai that someone had left the city, it had already been a long time. Guan Hai was furious at the moment, knowing that he had been tricked by Kong Rong. Guan Hai knew that someone in Yingling City was out of the city at this moment, and there must be some plan, and after Xu Zhi's reminder, Guan Hai was shocked to realize that Kong Rong was going to ask for reinforcements. He knows his own affairs, and Guan Hai is very clear about the combat power of his own people. was able to scare Kong Rong so much that he didn't dare to go out of the city to fight him, or because of the ferocity he was when he killed Zong Bao at that time, if Kong Rong raised the courage to fight him, he would definitely fail. Now that Kong Rong is looking for reinforcements again, the situation is becoming more and more unfavorable for him.

Therefore, after Guan Hai thought clearly about the situation he was facing now, he hurriedly led hundreds of henchmen and cronies to pursue Tai Shici who was out of the city. I was already very annoyed in my heart, but after arriving at the battlefield, I saw my men and horses retreating without a fight, and I was immediately furious, and I directly ordered these fleeing men and horses to be killed.

"Phew!"

When Tai Shi Ci saw that Guan Hai and they even killed his own people, Tai Shi Ci, who was already full of benevolence and righteousness, felt dissatisfied in his heart, and took a bow and arrow at one of Guan Hai's confidants, and the confidant fell in response. Seeing that Tai Shi Ci had such accurate archery skills, Guan Hai and Guan Hai's henchmen and cronies were terrified, and they didn't dare to approach Tai Shi Ci at this moment. Tai Shi Ci didn't intend to let go of these murderous guys, and shot arrows with bows and arrows one after another, and in a short time, more than a dozen of Guan Hai's henchmen and cronies fell under the horse. In the end, Tai Shici saw that Guan Hai was surrounded in the middle, and he didn't know that this guy was Guan Hai, but he saw that this guy's identity was not low, so he wanted to shoot this guy at the moment, and then continue on the road.

"Whew!"

A bow and arrow galloped towards Guan Hai with an incomparably fierce murderous aura, Guan Hai was frightened, as if because his life was dying, the small universe exploded, and his body flashed dexterously, and he actually dodged Tai Shici's bow and arrow. However, Guan Hai is also the leader of the Yellow Turban Thief, and he has a strong ferocity in his bones, and when he found that his life was almost lost, all kinds of negative emotions broke out, so he commanded his henchmen and cronies to rush forward and made up his mind to kill Tai Shici.

Tai Shici then remembered that he had a major task, so he gave up the idea of continuing to release arrows, put away his gun and shot his horse, and continued to gallop in the direction of the plain. The war horses under Tai Shi Ci's crotch were much better than Guan Hai, and after Guan Hai chased a distance, he found that Tai Shi Ci's figure was gone.

"Damn!"

Guan Hai roared angrily, and after venting the anger in his heart, he turned his horse and walked towards the camp.

"Big leader, it will take at least three or five days for the other party to find reinforcements. Therefore, we must take Yingling City during this period, otherwise, our hard work these days will be in vain. ”

Back at the camp, Guan Hai once again convened his henchmen to discuss the matter, and it was Xu Zhi's resourcefulness that took the lead in speaking.

"I also know, it's just that we don't have siege equipment, so how can we take Yingling City in a short time. Hate Zhang Min, since he wants us to contribute, if he doesn't prepare early, let's be in a dilemma now. ”

Guan Hai roared, but he hated Zhang Min.

In fact, it is not wrong for Guan Hai to hate Zhang Min. In fact, since Tao Qian asked Zhang Min to come to Guan Hai to kidnap Mi Fang and Mi Zhen, he had already been prepared. However, Zhang Min is also a yellow turban thief, but he has the idea of eating black and eating black. wants Guan Hai and Kong Rong to fight to lose both, so that he can profit from it. When Guan Hai successfully kidnapped Mi Fang and Mi Zhen, Zhang Min pretended to be another Yellow Turban and killed Guan Hai. In this way, Zhang Min was able to get the huge wealth of the Mi family unconsciously.

Zhang Min thought it was good, but Tai Shici's appearance was an accident. Zhang Min didn't expect that there would be such a fierce person to come to Beihai to help. When Zhang Min learned about Tai Shici from Guan Hai, Zhang Min also knew that he couldn't delay it any longer, and hurriedly threw all the craftsmen who made the ladder to Guan Hai. However, it also took a day to make the ladder, and the day in between was wasted.

And Guan Hai saw that Zhang Min was able to summon the craftsmen who made the ladder so easily, and he also understood that Zhang Min had already prepared it, and now he gave it to himself, obviously with another purpose, Guan Hai's vigilance against Zhang Min was also raised again.

On the third day when Tai Shici went to the plains to ask for help, Guan Hai finally commanded his 30,000 Yellow Turban thieves to attack Yingling City.

Although there was a siege ladder, it didn't help much. After all, the Yellow Turban Thieves were composed of a group of peasants, without organization, and there was no commanding general under Guan Hai, and a group of people rushed up like a honeycomb, which was simply to give heads to the soldiers of Yingling City. Logs, boulders, and boiling oil poured down, and the yellow turban thieves fell down in rows, but in just half a day, thousands of people had been killed and injured.

Half a day later, Guan Hai saw that the casualties were so heavy, so he hurriedly adjusted and distributed the men and horses to attack, but the result was still not much change.

The siege of the Yellow Turban thieves, without archers in the back row to cover, and without a sophisticated shield defense, in the face of the garrison materials of Yingling City, the casualties were still as heavy, only a little better than the first half of the day.

On the fourth day, Guan Hai borrowed a subordinate from Zhang Min, who had some command skills, which greatly reduced the casualties of the Yellow Turban Thieves. However, the Yellow Turban Thief itself is not hard enough, as the famous saying goes, if you are not afraid of a god-like opponent, you are afraid of a pig-like teammate. After two days of siege, the Yellow Turban thieves had suffered more than 6,000 casualties, and the number of soldiers in Yingling City had dropped from 3,000 to 2,000.

The reason why there are so few losses is because of the command of Wu Anguo.

Wu Anguo broke his arm, but his mind was still very clear, and he was still able to make accurate response strategies, so that the Yellow Turban Thieves could never set foot on the walls of Yingling City.

On the fifth day, Guan Hai was about to attack the city, but he suddenly heard a report from his subordinates that a force appeared.

This army is naturally Liu Bei, who came from the plains to support. Tai Shi Ci set out from Yingling City, traveled all the way, and arrived at the plain in less than a day, handed over Kong Rong's letter to Liu Bei, and Liu Bei immediately agreed to send troops to aid Kong Rong without hesitation.

The plain is the territory of Jizhou, when Liu Bei followed Gongsun Zan to attack Yuan Shao, he had already provoked Yuan Shao, and Liu Bei's situation can be imagined. Therefore, Liu Bei had already planned to leave the plains to seek development, and now Kong Rong's letter just gave him an opportunity. Liu Bei ordered 3,000 military horses and hurried to Beihai.

When Guan Hai heard that Liu Bei was coming, he was shocked, he didn't know much about Liu Bei, so he hurriedly asked the subordinate who inquired about the news: "Is the guy who rushed into the city that day here?"

"I didn't see that man, the leader of the Qiyu. ”

Hearing this news, Guan Hai was immediately overjoyed and said excitedly: "Ignorant children dare to come and pick up the tiger whiskers of the leader, and they will definitely be asked to come and go back today." ”

After finishing speaking, Guan Hai ordered all the men and horses, and turned to attack Liu Bei.
