After Lin Nan led the army to Yecheng, he directly lived in the camp of Huang Zhongtun stationed at the north gate, and expanded it to take the camp at the north gate as the main camp.

In the afternoon of this day, Lin Nan led the generals to ride their horses to the bottom of Yecheng, but saw that there were many swords and guns on Yecheng, bows and crossbows were ready, all the soldiers defending the city looked energetic, and a general stood on the battlements and was looking at them.

Lin Nan saw that the general's figure was thin and muscular, his knife-like face was sharp, and there was a hint of indifferent smile under his tall nose, which had been hidden under his aggressive momentum in his sharp eyes, which made people look very impressive.

"Who is this person?" Lin Nan had never seen this person before, so he pointed to the general standing on the battlements and asked.

Huang Zhong glanced at it and hurriedly replied, "Lord Qi, this person is Ju Yi, the general under Yuan Shao's account. ”

"Juyi?" Lin Nan squinted at the people standing on the battlements and muttered to himself.

Ju Yi wore a cooked copper helmet, iron armor, a long sword hanging from his waist, his arms were in front of his chest, standing on the battlements and staring at Lin Nan and the others tightly with his fierce gaze, a trace of indifferent smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he took a deep breath, and then puffed up the breath in the dantian, opened his mouth and shouted loudly: "Is it Yanhou Lin Nan?" ”

Lin Nan heard Ju Yi standing and shouting on the battlements unscrupulously, so he turned his head to Huang Zhong and said, "The old general has excellent archery skills, I don't know if I can shoot Ju Yi down with an arrow?" ”

Huang Zhong measured the distance and watched the river flowing slowly in the moat around Yecheng, then shook his head and said to Lin Nan helplessly: "Lord, the moat is too wide, and we are far away, even the golden bow I carry can't have such a long range. can shoot arrows into the city in time, but the power of the arrows has become the end of the crossbow, and it is not a threat to Ju Yi at all. ”

When Lin Nan heard Huang Zhong's embarrassment, he stopped talking, turned his head and replied to Ju Yi in a loud voice: "It's Lin Nan below, I don't know what the general has to say?" ”

Ju Yi snorted coldly. Lang said: "In Xia Juyi, a native of Longxi, Liangzhou, and Hou Ye are fellow villagers, I have heard Hou Ye's name for a long time, but I have never met, I came to visit Hou Ye today, and I also ask Hou Ye to remember my name." ”

"Well, I really didn't expect to meet fellow villagers here. Since you and I are fellow countrymen. Now that Yuan Shao's general trend has gone, it is better for you to open the city gate and lead the troops to surrender to me, and I will definitely not treat you badly. Lin Nan rode his horse to the moat, stopped, and shouted at Ju Yi on the castle tower.

Ju Yi laughed and said: "Master Hou's kindness is understood, but Yuan Shao treats me well, and I can't betray Ju Yi casually." Please forgive me. I specially reported my name to Hou Ye because I wanted Hou Ye to know my name. Because I am ready to fight with Hou Ye, even if I die tragically under Hou Ye's gun, I will die without regrets. ”

Lin Nan sighed: "Ju Yi is loyal and brave, and he is really a rare general, but this person is too arrogant and destined to be killed by me." Old General, Zilong, Shuzhi, Zhongye, Gongming, what do you think of this person? ”

Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Chen Dao, Wen Ping, and Xu Huang all looked at each other. I don't know what Lin Nan means, whether he wants to collect Ju Yi or kill Ju Yi, the five of them didn't say anything, but stood quietly by Lin Nan's side.

"My lord. Ju Yi is not the courage of a horseman, there are brave and unscrupulous people, there is no need to worry, and a battle can be captured. If the lord wants to subdue him, he only needs to devise a clever plan. Seeing that Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Chen Dao, Wen Ping, and Xu Huang didn't answer, Jia Xu stepped forward and said softly.

Lin Nan smiled: "No! I'm going to make an example of a hundred and kill a chicken to show the monkeys. I have already persuaded Ju Yi to surrender just now, but if he doesn't comply, there is only a dead end. Ju Yi is a general under Yuan Shao, although Wu Yong is not as good as Yan Liang and Wen Chou, but if he kills this person, he will definitely be able to demoralize the Zhao army in the city. ”

"I'm afraid that Ju Yi can't hold on, and I can't start." Jia Xu said.

"If the enemy army does not leave the city, it will be better for our army. Let's go, go back to the camp for the time being, I haven't entered Yecheng, I must first understand the basic situation in Yecheng. Lin Nan turned his horse's head, snorted lightly, and rode towards the barracks.

The rest of the generals followed closely and entered the barracks, which was no more than three miles away from the north gate.

As soon as he entered the barracks, Lin Nan asked Zhao Yun to bring the frustrated Hu into the big tent. Seeing Frustrated Hu standing in front of him, he opened his mouth and asked, "Frustrated Hu, let me ask you, what is the layout in Yecheng?" In addition to the east, west, south, and north gates, are there any other side gates in the city that can be entered and exited? ”

Frustrated Hu said: "No, if you want to enter Yecheng, you can only go to the east, west, south, and north four gates, these four gates are the main gates of Yecheng, after entering the four gates, there is an urn city inside, once the main gate falls, the defenders can retreat into the urn city, as long as the defense is tight, the enemy can not break through." In addition, there is a palace in the city, which has just been built in April this year, which Yuan Shao is preparing to use as king. ”

"King? Hehe, Yuan Shao probably wouldn't have thought at that time that he would end up in such a situation in just over a month. Lin Nan said with a smile.

Frustrated: "Originally, Yuan Shao wanted to build the Hou Mansion and the royal capital in Handan, Zhao County, but due to various reasons, he did not move, so he still took Yecheng as the location of the Hou Mansion and the royal capital. ”

Lin Nan said: "Okay, you go down." ”

"Master Hou, then my father ......"

"Don't worry, I will definitely save your father from Yuan Shao's hands, you can stay in the barracks with peace of mind now, use your place, I will naturally let you come."

Frustrated Hu had a request for help, but he could only accept it helplessly, and slowly withdrew from the big tent.

After Lin Nan saw that the frustrated Hu had left, he said loudly: "Just now I led you to look around Yecheng, Yecheng is a big city, judging from the defense of each city gate, it can be said that it is very strong, coupled with the moat surrounding, we can't get close to the city, if we want to attack, we will definitely suffer heavy losses." What good ideas do you have, now you have all taken them out, and it is time for you to make contributions. ”

Huang Zhong took the lead in holding his fists and said: "Lord, Yecheng is bordered by the Zhanghe River in the north, and the water in the moat is all living water, which is brought from the Zhanghe River, and the excavated moat is almost as deep as a zhang, if you want to attack Yecheng, you must first cut off the water source in the moat, and then let the soldiers carry the soil to fill in a road." When the time comes, you can directly follow this filled road, you can let the soldiers attack the city, and then use catapults to cover it, and attack day and night, and you can attack Yecheng in less than three days. ”

Lin Nandao: "Well, this plan is good. Any other comments? ”

Xun You directly clenched his fists and said: "Lord, General Huang's strategy is good, but if you want to capture Yecheng, you don't necessarily have to attack the city." ”

"If you don't attack the city, how can you capture it, will the enemy take the initiative to dedicate the city to you?" Huang Zhong argued.

Xun You smiled and said, "Yes! ”

Huang Zhong said suspiciously: "Then Yuan Shao is not a fool, and there are at least 80,000 troops in Yecheng, and the strategists and good generals of the Zhao army are all there, how could Yuan Shao give up the city to us?" ”

Xun You explained: "This is the soldier who surrenders without a fight. It is the best policy, rather than losing troops when attacking the city, it is better to besiege but not attack, adopt a strategy of attacking and harassing, and harass the soldiers and civilians in Yecheng every day and night, and within seven days, the people in Yecheng will inevitably take the initiative to escape, and even the Zhao army will become discouraged. When the time comes, it will be much easier to attack Yecheng again. ”

Lin Nan was very familiar with the strategy proposed by Xun You. At the time of the Wuhuan rebellion, Qiu Liju occupied Yangle City, and Xun You used this strategy to attack Yangle City, which resulted in Qiu Liju's soldiers not being able to sleep day and night, and finally had no choice but to withdraw from Yangle City. When he heard Xun You's old plan mentioned it again, he also felt that it could be implemented.

Guo Jia offered advice: "It's good to attack the city. The premise is that Yuan Shao must be besieged and killed in the city. Since there are only four main gates in Yecheng that can be entered and exited, it has become much simpler. The lord only had to ask his soldiers to dig deep ditches outside the four gates, build high ramparts, and completely surround the four gates. Then take siege or harassment, you can let the enemy do the battle of trapped beasts, as long as you hold the main road out of the city, you don't have to worry about attacking Yecheng. ”

Lin Nan nodded and said, "Well, that's what I mean, I want to besiege Yecheng, and I can't let go of a single soldier." As long as we do this, I believe that Yecheng will definitely react. Jia Xu, you will give the order to disperse all the infantry at the four city gates, and begin to prepare digging tools, and after nightfall, the four city gates will be blocked, with deep ditches and high fortifications, and I don't believe that Yuan Shao will not be killed. ”

"No!" Jia Xu hugged his fists.

"Report ......" Lin Chu ran in from outside the tent and shouted loudly, "Lord Qiqi, Lu Bu's army has arrived, and it is less than ten miles away. ”

Lin Nan smiled: "It's too slow, we've all been here for a long time." Where did he come from? ”

Lin Chu replied: "Handan, Zhao County." ”

Lin Nan slowly stood up and said loudly: "Huang Zhong is guarding the camp, Zhao Yun, Xu Huang, Chen Dao, and Wen Ping are with me to welcome Lu Bu, I want to see for myself how majestic Lu Bu's Bingzhou athletes are." ”

After the order was completed, all the generals replied in unison, and then they separated, and each knew what to do.

Lin Nan rode a snow horse on a dark cloud, and walked in the direction of Handan with Zhao Yun, Xu Huang, Chen Dao, and Wen Ping, a group of five people, and ran out of less than three miles, and saw the smoke and dust rolling in front of him, Lu Bu rode a fiery red rabbit horse galloping from the smoke and dust, holding Fang Tian's halberd, and wearing heavy armor was very chic.

Lu Bu rode on the red rabbit horse, refreshed, with muscles up and down his body, full of explosive power, standing on the horse like an insurmountable mountain, between his eyes, it seemed that the world was in his hands.

"Lu Bu is really the first fierce man in the Three Kingdoms, every time I see him, I always give people an indescribable feeling, that kind of momentum that looks at the world, as if everyone is passing in his eyes......" Lin Nan watched Lu Bu speeding over, and secretly thought in his heart.

Lu Bu took the lead, and the red rabbit horse under the seat was even more abnormal, and he galloped in front of Lin Nan with only a few strokes of smoke on Lu Bu. He reined in the horses and arched his hand: "Yan Hou is not harmed?" ”

Lin Nan smiled: "I'm fine, I don't know how the Marquis of Jin is doing?" ”

Lu Bu said with a smile: "In the bitter cold land of Bingzhou, I have been bullied by Xianbei many times, how Yan Hou is doing, Yan Hou can imagine. ”

Lin Nan was no longer polite, because polite words would be endless, so he said straight to the point: "How many soldiers and horses did Marquis Jin bring this time?" ”

Lu Budao: "Not much, 50,000 cavalry, but only 30,000 really arrived in Yecheng, and I separated the rest of the soldiers and horses to occupy Zhongshan, Changshan, Julu, and Zhaojun." I also want to thank Yan Hou for his generosity, not only gave me Zhongshan, but also gave me the giant deer together, it seems that I, Lu Bu, did not make a mistake with you as a friend. ”

Lin Nan smiled: "Since I invited the Marquis of Jin to help me. You must show some sincerity, this time Yuan Shao was besieged by me in Yecheng, and he couldn't run away if he wanted to. Although I have nearly 100,000 people, more than 50,000 of them are surrendered troops and cannot be used for battle, and the city defense of Yecheng is also very thick. To conquer such a fortified city, there will naturally be many difficulties. I heard that the cavalry under the Marquis of Jin are all tigers and wolves, so I want to ask the Marquis to help. Besides, this Yecheng has been captured, isn't it yours? ”

Lu Budao: "Although you can rest assured, I will give you half of Jizhou, even if you don't say it, I will attack this Yecheng." ”

Lin Nan arched his hand towards Lu Bu and said, "Then it's a matter of words, I will withdraw from the West Gate and give it to the Marquis of Jin." Only the Marquis of Jin needs to guard the west gate. ”

Lu Bu said: "Very good, then it's decided." ”

"Well, the Marquis of Jin has come from afar, and I have already asked people to prepare thin wine, and I won't return home if I don't get drunk tonight." Lin Nan made a gesture of please, but his eyes were staring at the cavalry galloping behind Lu Bu, and saw that the knights on horseback were all strong men, and they were all fierce and vicious. It doesn't seem to be a good type, and I can't help but feel sorry in my heart. Then he said loudly: "Brother Fengxian." Please! ”

Lu Bu was also not polite, and as soon as he sat down on his war horse, he followed Lin Nan directly.

Zhao Yun, Xu Huang, Chen Dao, and Wen Ping looked at Lu Bu passing by, and for some reason, the four of them all felt a pressure that they had never felt before, and that pressure was invisible. It seemed that the aura emanating from Lu Bu's body was enough to make them feel in danger, and a thought couldn't help but rise in the hearts of the four people: "This person is too dangerous......

Lu Bu didn't have to speak, but just made a gesture behind his back, and Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, who followed closely behind, led their subordinates towards the west gate.

Lin Nan also immediately ordered: "Zhongye, please go to the West Gate." Sue Sù Pound and let him lead the soldiers to withdraw from the siege and give up the barracks to the Jin army. ”

After Wen Ping heard this, he said "No" and rode away.

Lu Buyi was bold and bold, and he didn't need any entourage or guards, so he followed Lin Nan into the camp of the Yan army alone.

In the camp of the Yan army, Lin Nan had already arranged a qiē, and the banquet had already been arranged, Lin Nan and Lu Bu sat down separately, and after taking their seats, Lin Nan said: "Brother Fengxian, do you want to call Zhang Liao and Gao Shun to drink together?" ”

Lu Bu shook his head and said: "They will be exempted, only our brothers are here to catch up, they still have to deal with the affairs of the military camp, and when they occupy Yecheng and kill Yuan Shao, we will have a celebration banquet together, and then the two armies will all gather together and drink for three days, hahaha!" ”

After Lin Nan heard Lu Bu's words, he felt that Lu Bu had already regarded Yecheng as a bag, and listening to that tone, it seemed that Yecheng didn't need to attack at all. He admired Lu Bu's self-confidence very much, but he knew that there were many difficulties in siege warfare, in his eyes, Lu Bu was a simple child, just focused on fighting, speaking of resourcefulness, no matter how simple a resourcefulness could put him to death.

Raising his glass, Lin Nan smiled: "Since that's the case, then it's just the two of us here, let's have a good drink." ”

Lu Bu felt that the wine glass was not bold enough, so he directly picked up the wine jar and held it up to Lin Nan: "Dry!" ”

Lin Nan raised the wine glass in his hand and said heartily: "Dry!" ”

The two of them drank with each other, but they didn't say much, perhaps because they were both overlords.

As the sun set, the twilight was four, Lu Bu said goodbye to the camp where Lin Nan was located with a flushed face, and rode a red rabbit horse towards the military camp outside the west gate of Yecheng.

Lin Nan was slightly drunk, full of alcohol, and the weather was hot and dry, and the big tent looked very stuffy, so he walked out of the big tent alone.

The evening breeze blew slowly, blowing away some of the wine on Lin Nan's body, making his eyes gradually clearer, and he saw countless soldiers holding digging tools, leaving the camp in an orderly manner, and under the leadership of their respective commanders, they went out of the camp.

The spectacular scene came out, more than 10,000 infantry outside the north gate were digging deep ditches, some were carrying soil, and the cavalry were scattered in front and on both flanks as cover, for fear that the enemy troops in the city would come out and harass.

At this time, Lin Nan saw two people coming in the opposite direction from outside the camp, and the figure was so familiar, it was Xu You and Wei Yan who had gone to Changyi to contact Cao Cao.

Seeing Xu You and Wei Yan coming back, Lin Nan's whole person immediately became sober, and beckoned to Xu You and Wei Yan: "Come and talk!" ”

Xu You and Wei Yan can be said to have tossed a lot along the way, tossing when they went, and being comfortable when they came back, because they didn't encounter any Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses when they came back. All the way unimpeded. The two came to Lin Nan and worshiped together: "See the lord!" ”

Lin Nan asked: "Is there anything to be gained from the trip to Changyi?" ”

Xu Yu said: "Cao Cao has promised the lord, and has already sent troops, when Wen Chang and I arrived in Puyang, Taishan County has been completely captured by Cao Cao. And Yuan Tan, who rushed to cross the river on the bank of the Yellow River. When he heard that Cao Cao had captured Taishan County and marched from Taishan County to Qingzhou, he led his subordinates to turn around and go back to deal with Cao Cao. However, from the perspective of his subordinates, Yuan Tan was not Cao Cao's opponent at all. ”

After hearing this, Lin Nan nodded and said, "Hmm." You've worked hard, so go down and rest first. ”

Xu Yu bowed and said: "Promise, my subordinates will retire!" ”

After Lin Nan saw Xu Yu walking away, he said to Wei Yan, "You come in with me." ”

Wei Yan entered the big tent, and when he saw Lin Nan sitting in his position, he bowed and said, "My lord." ”

"How about it, Xu Yu went to Changyi once, but did he have any unusual behavior?" Lin Nan waved his hand. motioned for Wei Yan to sit down.

After Wei Yan sat down, he said loudly: "Lord Qiqi." Xu You didn't have any abnormal behavior, and his subordinates followed Xu You all the way, eating, drinking, and sleeping together. However, his subordinates discovered a secret between him and Cao Cao......"

"Secret? What secret? Lin Nan said nervously.

Wei Yan smiled: "What should I say......"

"Tell the truth!"

"No! Xu You and Cao Cao's original wife was a childhood sweetheart, and when they were young, both of them liked that woman. Later, the woman was snatched away by Cao Cao, which seemed to have become an eternal pain in Xu You's heart, which I only learned when I heard Xu You talk in his sleep. Wei Yan replied truthfully.

Lin Nan almost didn't laugh out loud after hearing this, but he didn't expect Xu You and Cao Cao's wife to still have one leg, so he waved his hand and said, "You have worked hard this time." Let you look at Xu You, it is estimated that he himself knows what it is for, but Xu You is a scheming person, and he can't help but be careful. You should have a good rest these days, and when the attack on Yecheng comes, I will promote you back to the eighteen hussars, because there is one less person in the eighteen hussars. ”

"Less? Who's missing? Wei Yan's face immediately changed color, for him, fewer people meant that someone was killed.

Lin Nandao: "Hu Yu! ”

"Is that him? How did Hu Yu die? ”

"In the Battle of Julu, our army was ambushed, and Hu Yu was killed in order to cover the retreat of the main force."

Wei Yan immediately stood up, hugged his fists and said: "Lord, let me take Hu Yu's place, I won't make mistakes like before, please give me a chance, let me lead the troops to fight, break through Yecheng, and avenge Hu Yu!" ”

Lin Nandao: "Well, you rest for a few days first, there is no need to fight in these days, even if you want to fight, you will not charge, it is just a general interception." ”

When Wei Yan came back from outside, he had already seen the doorway, and when he saw so many people digging deep ditches and building barriers, he asked, "Does the lord want to block Yuan Shao in the city, besiege but not attack, and then let his morale be low?" ”

Lin Nan nodded and said, "Clever!" Okay, you go down to rest and rest first, and recuperate well for the next few days, and then I will reinstate you and lead the killing into Yecheng. ”

"No!"

……

On the wall of Yecheng, the lights were bright, and the soldiers in charge of patrolling looked outside in the light of the fire, and could vaguely see the figures shaking outside the city, but they couldn't tell what was going on.

At this time, the judge led people to the north gate, and he opened his mouth and asked, "Is there any situation?" ”

"Nothing! But ......"

"But what?"

"But I can always see a figure shaking outside......"

After hearing this, he immediately looked into the darkness outside the city gate, but saw that the lights in the Yan army's camp were dim, and he did see a shaking black shadow in the darkness. He immediately said: "Ten rockets are shot into the clearing, I want to see what is going on there!" ”

"No!"

As soon as the words fell, ten rockets were placed on the bowstring and shot outward, although the range was shorter, but the faint light still illuminated some clues, which surprised the judges.

"Not good! Open the gates and attack quickly! The judge shouted.

Ju Yi, who was guarding the north gate, was drinking in the gatehouse, and suddenly heard a shout from the trial outside the gatehouse, so he hurriedly walked out of the gatehouse, and saw the judge with a anxious look. Then he asked, "Prime Minister, what's wrong?" ”

Seeing this, the judge pointed out angrily and reprimanded Ju Yi: "How did you guard the city gate? The Yan army is digging a deep ditch under your nose and wants to completely surround us in the city, don't you realize it at all? ”

Ju Yi was drunk, his face was flushed, and he usually had no hobbies. I like to drink, and I like to have a few drinks when I have nothing to do. Today, when he had nothing to do, he drank in the gatehouse, and although he exuded alcohol all over his body, he could not get drunk. He felt hot all over his body from drinking, rolled up his sleeves, and looked out of the city, but saw that it was dark outside, except for a little light in the Yan army camp in the distance. Nothing to see again......

Turning his head, Ju Yi glared at the trial and asked loudly, "Why didn't I see it?" ”

The judge immediately wielded his bow and arrow, and shot a fiery arrow, and the faint light illuminated the night sky.

Ju Yi saw his astonished appearance from the sparks that rowed past, the Yan cavalry by the moat was in full formation, and behind the cavalry were soldiers who were constantly busy digging and carrying soil, and they circled around the city gate in a half-circle. A small rampart was built along the moat.

"Thief, mother!" Ju Yi scolded loudly with a northwest accent, "All arms for war." Let's see that Lao Tzu doesn't stab them all to death! ”

Seeing that Ju Yi turned around and wanted to go down the city tower, he hurriedly said: "Stop, the Yan army is ready to fight, and you have already taken precautions, if you go rashly, you will inevitably suffer." Ju Yi said angrily: "I'm afraid of a bird!" Lao Tzu is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death! ”

"You're not afraid of death. But you can't die! The judge frowned, his thoughts flashed quickly through his mind, and he hurriedly said, "In this way, you put down the drawbridge." Open the city gate, first block the banks of the moat with crossbowmen, shoot at the opposite side through the moat, and force back some of the cavalry of the Yan army, and then you lead the cavalry to charge into battle, and you want to go straight to the heart of the enemy army with one blow. At this time, the Yan army is probably busy building barriers, the camp must be empty, after you break through the defense line of the Yan army on the other side of the moat, you will go directly to rob the camp and set fire to the enemy's camp where the grain and grass are stored, as long as the grain and grass are burned, the enemy army will definitely retreat without a fight! ”

Ju Yi nodded heavily, and shouted at the soldiers beside him: "Armor, bring my chiseled gold tiger head gun!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the soldiers hurriedly put on their armor and helmets for Ju Yi, and then the two soldiers came to Ju Yi from the gatehouse with Ju Yi's customary chiseled gold tiger head gun......

Ju Yi grabbed the chiseled gold tiger head gun, this gun is about one zhang and two feet long, the head of the gun is as powerful as a giant tiger head, the barrel of the gun is as thick as the mouth of a bowl, and the body and head of the gun are made of dark iron, which looks very important at a glance. However, Ju Yi only grabbed it lightly, and the chiseled gold tiger head gun that the two soldiers were carrying on their shoulders together was lightly held in his hand, which showed that his arm strength was amazing.

"Prepare the horses!" Ju Yi packed up his outfits, and by the way, he had a long sword hanging from his waist, and strode towards the city tower.

Seeing Ju Yi's heroic posture, the judge couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart: "Ju Yi is really a fierce general, with him, even if the Yan army is rampant, there is no need to worry." Ju Yi went down the city tower, and the soldiers guarding the gate had already prepared a horse for him, which was a yellow fat horse, the horse's body was strong and tall, and the body was fat and strong, which Ju Yi brought from Xiliang. The horse did not look struggling to carry the tall and burly Ju Yi, but as soon as Ju Yi stepped on the horse's back, it shouted excitedly, and its two front hooves were lifted in the air, and it looked sonorous and powerful when it landed.

"Lower the drawbridge and open the gates!" Ju Yi was holding a chiseled golden tiger head spear, riding a yellow fat horse under his crotch, followed by the five hundred elite cavalry he brought from Xiliang, and shouted loudly.

Afraid that Ju Yi would not obey his orders, the judge hurriedly looked down the city tower and reminded: "Ju Yi! Shoot the cavalry on the opposite bank with crossbowmen first, and then lead the cavalry to charge and kill! ”

Ju Yi raised his eyelids and glanced at the city tower, and sneered: "I'll remember it once I say it, why should the prime minister be verbose?" ”

The soldiers at the north gate of Yecheng slowly put down the suspension bridge, the suspension bridge is all made of thick iron plates, fifteen meters long, ten meters wide, many heavy iron chains are tied to the suspension bridge, with a large grinding disc to drive the lifting of the suspension bridge, fifteen strong men are working together in the gatehouse below the city tower to push the grinding plate, so that the suspension bridge is lowered little by little......

Far away on the other side of the moat at the north gate of Yecheng, the cavalry of the Yan army was waiting for it, and the cavalry team formed a tight formation under the leadership of Huang Zhong.

Huang Zhong and the others suddenly heard a series of crisp sounds of iron chains, and focused their eyes on the gate of Yecheng, but instead of being surprised, a thick and wide iron plate slowly fell, but everyone's face raised a confident smile......

"As expected. As soon as the enemy saw us digging a deep trench, they could not sit still. On the tower of the north gate of Yecheng, the judge pressed his hands on the battlements, watched the drawbridge being lowered little by little, and then immediately instructed the subordinate officials around him: "Quickly notify Yan Liang, who is guarding the east gate, and let him lead his troops to attack the enemy troops outside the city." The enemy must not be allowed to form a blockade line. ”

"Do you want to inform the west gate and the south gate?" The subordinate officer asked......

"Notify the fart! The west gate and the south gate are under Guo Tu's control, we don't have to worry about it, you just do what I say, quickly notify Yan Liang to attack, open the way with crossbowmen, and the cavalry sprint, directly approaching the enemy camp, and set fire to the camp! The judge said angrily.

The subordinate officer said "no" and quickly left the north gate. ran to Yan Liang at the east gate.

As soon as the subordinate officer of the trial had left, he heard a loud "bang" outside the north gate, and the heavy suspension bridge fell firmly to the ground, erected on both sides of the moat ten meters wide, and a bridge was formed.

The gate of the north gate was also opened at this time, and two thousand crossbow archers quickly poured out of the doorway, and as soon as they left the gate, they quickly divided into two sides and stood along the moat. The bows and crossbows were ready, under the orders of the military commander of the crossbowmen. And he shot arrows at the other side......

"Whoosh......"

Arrows fly. In the darkness of the night, it was impossible to make out how many arrows were fired from the opposite side, but Huang Zhong and the others had already prepared, and with Huang Zhong's clear roar, the cavalry began to retreat, and the infantry with shields blocked up and stuck in the first line.

The soldiers of the Yan army armed with steel knives and shields hid their bodies behind the shields. People were next to each other, forming a tight shield wall, and no matter how many arrows were shot from the opposite side, they were all blocked out.

However, it is strange to see. None of the Yan soldiers were hit by arrows, but they were all constantly screaming in pain, and Huang Zhong asked the cavalry to whip the horses under his seat one after another, so that the horses also neighed, mixed with the screams of people, if you close your eyes and listen carefully, there is really a feeling of people turning on their backs......

The dark clouds covered the moon, the night was dark, and the soldiers of the Zhao army with bows and crossbows were shooting arrows on the bank of the moat, and their eyes could only see that it was pitch black, and they could not see whether there were soldiers on the opposite side at all, so they could only shoot them with random arrows. But when they heard the screams coming from the other side, all the crossbowmen began to shoot harder, and there was a hint of joy on everyone's face.

Ju Yi, who was preparing from far away in the city gate, heard the hoarse shouts from the other side, as well as the sound of dying and struggling, his whole person seemed very excited, and he said to himself: "There is really a set of trials, listening to this voice, more than a thousand people have been shot to the least." ”

The screams on the other side of the moat gradually became scarce, but in exchange for the constant cursing of the Yan army, Ju Yi couldn't bear it anymore when he heard this, thinking that the other side must have been shot by the crossbowmen in an open space...... He raised the chiseled gold tiger head gun in his hand and shouted loudly to the elite five hundred cavalry behind him: "The whole army is attacking!" ”

With an order, Ju Yi took the lead, and after a loud shout of "driving", the first one rushed out of the city gate, and the five hundred cavalry behind him followed closely, all of them showed their fierce side, their faces were hideous, and they stepped over the suspension bridge erected on the moat and rushed to the opposite bank.

"Kill......"

The cavalry of the Zhao army, led by Ju Yi, shouted, and when Ju Yi and the front quickly rushed across the drawbridge, they did not see a single corpse on the ground. Before he could figure out what was going on, he felt that the horse suddenly stumbled and fell to the ground, and he overturned him from the horse, and rolled on the ground a few times.

"Ah......h

For a time, the cavalry led by Ju Yi ran in the front, and one or two hundred people were all turned on their backs, and the cavalry who had no time to restrain their horses also rushed over together, trampling to death many cavalry who were overturned from their horses in front, and the cavalry were all in mourning.

Ju Yi got up from the ground, his golden tiger head spear in his hand, and his fierce gaze scanned the darkness around him, but he didn't find anything unusual. He turned his head to look behind him, but saw that the two hooves of the horse he was riding were deeply sunk in a narrow hole, and half of the horse's legs were sunk into it, but they could not be pulled out, and some of the horse's legs were even broken in two.

The same was true of the rest of the cavalry, and many deep pits suddenly appeared on the originally flat ground, which were not big or small, just enough to accommodate the horse's legs, and once the horse's legs were stepped on, they could not be pulled out in the case of fast running, and because of the effect of inertia, the knight on horseback was overturned to the ground.

Ju Yi's face was shocked, he felt that this was a trap, and hurriedly shouted loudly: "Withdraw!" Retreat! ”

The voice was still swirling in the air, and suddenly there was a fire all around, and the infantry with shields blocked there, Huang Zhong led hundreds of cavalry galloped over, moved the phoenix mouth knife in his hand forward, and shouted loudly: "Ju Yi!" Surrender quickly and avoid death! ”

"Thief, mother!" Ju Yi clenched the chiseled golden tiger head gun with both hands, saw that all sides were surrounded, and there was no cowardice at all, standing there staring at the two round eyes, and scolded Huang Zhong, "Vote for your mother's surrender, if you want to fight, why bother talking nonsense?" ”

Seeing that Ju Yi was surrounded in an open space by the drawbridge, the horses behind him overturned on their sides and blocked the way back, and there were enemy troops on three sides in front of him, he slapped his thigh suddenly and hurriedly shouted: "Hurry up and send troops to rescue Ju Yi!" ”

At the sound of the order, a large number of cavalry poured out of the city gate, and the crossbowmen along the moat saw the light on the other side at this time, and began to fire arrows into the enemy's formation. However, the enemy was on the other side of the moat by the heavily armored hoplites, and they were basically facing them sideways, holding shields in their hands and only facing Juyi, and the arrows they shot could not penetrate the steel armor of the heavy infantry in the slightest......

Huang Zhong led the same heavy cavalry behind him, but the heavy cavalry did not lock the horses together, but separated them individually.

Guan Hai followed behind Huang Zhong, and when he saw that Ju Yi was surrounded, he would rather die than surrender, so he said to Huang Zhong: "General Huang! The lord has an order, if Ju Yi does not surrender, he can be killed, if you don't go, then I will go! ”

Huang Zhong squinted at Guan Hai, and saw that Guan Hai was covered with armor and wrapped in steel, so he said: "You are incapacitated, Ju Yi is a fierce general of the Zhao army, this credit will be taken care of by me, if there is any reward from the lord, I will share half of you!" ”

Guan Hai smiled and said, "Then what if the lord rewards a woman?" ”

"......" Huang Zhong was silent, and then smiled, "The old man already has a wife, if it is a woman, I will give it to you." "Refreshing! I wish General Huang to be captured, but General Huang should be careful of the arrows on the opposite side! Guan Hai said with a smile.

Huang Zhong sneered: "General Guan is here to suppress the formation, I will come when I go!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Huang Zhong rode out of his horse, slapped his horse and danced his knife to Ju Yi who was standing on the ground. Many arrows flying towards him were split in half one by one by his amazing sword skills, staring at the two fierce eyes, the killing intent in his eyes was great, and he shouted loudly: "Ju Yi, watch me take your head!" ”

Ju Yi stood motionless, his feet slightly apart, and when he saw Huang Zhong rushing on a single horse, the chiseled gold tiger head gun in his hand was already unbearable...... He saw that Huang Zhong's momentum was awe-inspiring, as fierce as a flooding river, and he couldn't help but be overwhelmed by Huang Zhong's momentum, swallowed a mouthful of saliva with a "grunt", and secretly shouted in his heart: "The person who came is extraordinary, and he is by no means a mediocre person, I must be careful to deal with the battle." ”

The cavalry of the Zhao army who came to the rescue were blocked by the heavy infantry led by Chen Zhi, Wen Ping, and Chu Yan, and the three generals were blocked by the drawbridge, and the conflict could not be passed, not only could not kill this group of heavy infantry, but also lost a lot of soldiers and horses.
