The Xiliang army is now strong, but it occupies a defensive position and cannot fight hard. The state army reviewed and set its sights on another piece of big fat and went to the party.

Since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Shangdang has had an important military position. Shangdang is now the southeast of Shanxi, east of Taihang Mountain and Hebei Plain, south is Taihang Wangwu, Taihang Eight Paths (only six paths at this time) in the Taihang Eight Paths (at this time only six paths) there are Fukou Cheng, Bai Cheng, Taihang Cheng three in Shangdang, because the black mountain thieves entrenched in Taihang Mountain, Taihang Mountain can not pass basically. It can be said that the connection channel between the cloud and the Kwantung princes is only Shangdang County. Shangdang Taishou Zhang Yang has a somewhat opportunistic personality, on the one hand, he showed favor to Yuan Shao, and on the other hand, he accepted Luoyang's appointment, and Yun originally held a wedding banquet for his children, and Zhang Yang also sent someone to congratulate him. Zhang Yang thought that all aspects should not be offended, and all aspects should be pleased, originally Yun and Yuan Shao also needed a balance, Shangdang was on higher ground, and they were both offensive and defensive to the Quartet, so neither Bingzhou nor Jizhou was willing to occupy each other, so they could tolerate Zhang Yang's existence. But with the change of events, Yun can no longer tolerate Zhang Yang, a force inserted in his hinterland and able to attack the hinterland of Taiyuan or Hedong at any time.

At this time, it was already the first year of Xingping, and the Son of Heaven changed the era name again under the coercion of Li Yu and Guo Yan. At this time, nearly two years have passed since the Battle of Jieqiao, and Yuan Shao has gone from the passive defense of Gongsun Chan in the early stage to the active attack, and Gongsun Chan and Yuan Shao fought bloody battles in Youzhou, and they were repeatedly at a disadvantage. Cao Cao had already picked up a big leak out of thin air, served as the assassin of Yanzhou, defeated the remaining yellow turbans in Qingxu and Xu, and obtained 30,000 strong and 400,000 women and children. The invincible Yuan Shu fled from Nanyang in a hurry under the combined blows of Liu Biao, Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao and occupied Shouchun.

After discussing with his staff, Yun Zai thought that this was the best time to recover the Shangdang, first, Yuan Shao was fighting Gongsun Zan on the one hand, and on the other hand, he had to guard against the black mountain thieves behind him, and he had no spare strength to help Zhang Yang resist the attack of the state army. Second, defeated Yuan Shu and occupied Yanzhou, Cao Cao at this time is no longer the little brother who follows Yuan Shao's buttocks, the rift between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao is already very obvious, Cao Cao once asked Cao Ren to lead the troops, and went north in the name of helping Yuan Shao beat Gongsun Zhan. Whether he wanted to fight Gongsun Zan or Yecheng who wanted to attack Yuan Shao couldn't tell. Cao Cao, the former younger brother of Yuan Shao, is now in harmony with the party, and he will help Yuan Shao fight his hometown at any time. Third, with the gradual strengthening of the Bingzhou army, the traces of Zhang Yang's fall to Yuan Shao are becoming more and more obvious, and the co-optation of the Bingzhou army is obviously useless.

So Yun took the tiger and the wolf to ride the dragon and attack the party blatantly.

Yun himself led the two armies of the tiger and the wolf to ride one way, and the Long Xiang army to attack the Shangdang in two ways.

The attack of the state army is tantamount to a bolt from the blue for the Shangdang army, originally Zhang Yang and the Shangdang generals still have some comfort in their hearts, originally thought that they were both merge state soldiers, and the state soldiers and horses are not necessarily stronger than the Shangdang army, and they can also ask Yuan Benchu for help, with the help of the Jizhou army, it is not a problem to block the state army. It's a pity that the strength of the Bingzhou military to beat eggs with stones made them understand that fantasy is just fantasy after all.

Outside Gaodu County, Zhou Cang, the commander of the Long Xiang Army, and his lieutenants Huang Zhong and Zhang Fei rode horses on the high ground to look at the Gaodu City guarded by the whole city. Huang Zhong's eyes were as sharp as an eagle, and he could see the most clearly, he could easily see the loose figures of the soldiers on the city wall and the nervousness and cold sweat on their faces, and he could also see that they were not wearing armor and their weapons were not neat.

"The enemy's heart is unstable, the armor is not in order, and the general should attack it." ”

Zhou Cang didn't have a pair of sharp eyes like Huang Zhong, but he had been in the army for many years, and he had fought the Yellow Turban and the Xianbei Huns, and he could see that the queue of the Shangdang army was not neat, and the slight riots on the city wall, so he understood that it was a better choice to attack the enemy at this time while the enemy was unstable.

Zhou Cang Longxiang army 10,000 soldiers, far from enough to surround the Gaodu City, can only surround two sides, Zhou Cang ordered the two captains: "I ordered 3,000 people to besiege the north wall for the second monarch to cover, and the second monarch will take the west wall in one go when the time is ripe." ”

His subordinates Huang Zhong and Zhang Fei are all enemies, and Zhou Cang naturally has the confidence to say such a big thing as capturing the city wall in one go. Huang Zhong and Zhang Fei received the order and led the troops down.

Zhou Cang pressed his sword, looking at the tall city wall and the busy soldiers in the barracks, he had a lot of thoughts, and now he is also the master of an army, with tens of thousands of elites under his command, this majesty makes this religiously worship Huang Taiyi, and believe in the great sage and good teacher of the Yellow Turban Lux has an unreal feeling. The current little heavenly master, do you still remember the great sage and good teacher, and do you still remember the oath that he took us to revitalize the yellow sky? Although Yun has never avoided his yellow scarf background, he has never taken the initiative to mention it, deliberately weakening the influence of his yellow turban background.

Zhou Cang felt sad and helpless about the change, he didn't know if the little heavenly master changed for the sake of power, but he knew that he really changed for the sake of power. He was eager to attack Gaodu County, not only because he wanted to take advantage of the enemy's unstable army to attack Yunyun, but also because he wanted to compete with Liao Hua. Liao Hua had already conquered two cities, and Zhou Cang didn't want to be left behind too much, so he let Pei Yuanshao defend the city after he beat one city, and he hurriedly took the rest of the soldiers and horses to fight the high capital. No matter how many reasons there are, Zhou Cang knows that the reason why he is so hard is for merit, which makes Zhou Cang feel sad.

But a little melancholy could not make Zhou Cang lose his spirit of forging ahead, he quickly cheered up and ordered the soldiers to attack.

Since it was a feint, it could not let the enemy see the flaws, Zhou Cang's attack was very fierce, although because of the rugged terrain around Gaodu, the slightly larger siege equipment could not play a role, but the soldiers of the Long Xiang army rushed up with ladders. These soldiers were not afraid of death, and those who charged before them were clad in strong armor and were not afraid of bows and crossbows. In just a moment's engagement, the Long Xiang army inflicted great casualties on Zhang Yang's troops. Yang Chou, the general of the high capital, is also here, he is quite brave, a spear wielding a tiger and a tiger, Yang Chou saw a city wall with a dragon army soldier rushing up, revealing the upper body. Yang Chou hurriedly stepped forward and tried to use his spear to pick up the ladder down. I never thought that the top of this ladder was a sharp barb, which had been deeply hooked into the city wall and difficult to push. "Damn," Yang Chou grumbled, and the soldiers of the Long Xiang Army had already jumped up, raised the big knife in their hands, and swung it at Yang Chou's head. Yang Chou can be appointed by Zhang Yang as the commander of the first army, naturally he has some ability, and he is still bowing his head in chagrin, and the spear in his hand is like a poisonous snake through the armor, piercing the soldier. But before he knew it, he had been stabbed in the thigh by another soldier who had climbed the city wall. "Bastard!" Yang Chou was ruthless, and there was still a corpse hanging on the spear, so he swung the spear and hit the soldier who attacked him, and directly knocked the soldier's head off his neck. After all, Yang Chou had some courage, and the iron hook made of stainless steel was directly broken by him, and the ladder was also pushed down. But he could push down a ladder, but all the ladders on the city wall could not be pushed away, and the endless stream of soldiers of the Long Xiang Army was about to occupy the city wall. There is no way, this is the gap between the elite and the soldiers of the other princes. There is no comparison between the Hundred Battles and the Peasant Soldiers.

Yang Chou had no choice but to order the other city walls to draw soldiers here to relieve the pressure.

Under the city wall, Zhou Cang saw that Zhang Yang's army on the city wall increased, so he ordered to slow down the momentum of the attack, if his side really attacked with all his strength, it would not be too difficult to defeat the city wall, but the casualties would inevitably be greater.

Huang Zhong Zhang Fei led the army, and after receiving Zhou Cang's order, Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Brother Hansheng, how about giving me the credit this time?" ”

Last time, Huang Zhong attacked the main attack, carrying a cirrus machete and rushing up with hundreds of forwards, killing people like chopping melons and vegetables, and beheading the enemy's main general with half a pillar of incense, winning the first credit. So this time Zhang Fei wanted to ask him to let him out of the station, Huang Zhong naturally knew that eating alone was the most stupid behavior, and said that he was watching Zhang Fei's meritorious service below.

Small-scale attacks had been being carried out here to paralyze the enemy, and Zhang Fei and dozens of military masters changed into small soldiers and secretly climbed up.

Surprisingly smooth, Zhang Fei ascended to the top of the city, and Zhang Sanye, who had been suppressed for a long time, roared: "Yanren Zhang Yide is here." "The sound of thunder resounded throughout the city. The third master's loud voice can scare hundreds of thousands of Cao troops, and now it is not a problem to deter a few hundred soldiers. The enemy troops and their own soldiers on the city wall were all frightened, and the buzzing tinnitus kept ringing, Long Xiang's army was okay, knowing that this was his own general, the timid ones in the Zhang Yang army ran away. This is also related to Zhang Fei's supernatural powers, which are a deterrent. The stronger Zhang Fei's fighting spirit, the stronger the deterrent power, unless you are mentally tough enough, you will feel the fear of facing natural enemies emerging from the bottom of your heart. This is also the reason why Guan Yu said that Zhang Fei took the head of the general in the army, and it was useless for you to have more soldiers.

Below, Huang Zhong saw Zhang Fei showing his might, so he raised Zhang Fei's Zhangba snake spear and threw it upwards with all his might: "Yide takes the spear!" Zhang Fei took the weapon in his hand, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, killing the enemy in a few breaths. After killing all the enemy troops on the city wall, Huang Zhong led the army into the city.

Zhang Yangjun's morale was not high, but now that the city was broken, they scattered and fled, and Yang Chou, who was still fighting with Zhou Cangbu, could only order to flee.
