PS: I was too busy yesterday, so tired that I really can't update, so I'll make up for it later. In addition, the title of the previous chapter is wrong again, it should be the Battle of Qingxu (8), and I don't know what's wrong with me, maybe I'm really tired.

————————————————————————————————————

As a famous businessman in Donghai County, the Mi family is extremely familiar with all the roads in Donghai County, especially the road from Qu County to the outside, which is the first few trade routes for the Mi family to make a living.

Mi Zhong sent dozens of horsemen to Xiapi, Tancheng, and Guangling to ask for help, and successfully sent these messengers out before Yuan's army could come ashore and fail to besiege the city.

Recently in Tancheng, Tancheng Liqu County recently sent a messenger to report the situation of Yuan's attack to the county guard Donghai County's first car, and by the way, establish a defensive line to prevent Yuan's army from advancing. Moreover, the Shushui from the vicinity of Tancheng is the vicinity of Xiapi City, and then a distance north through Surabaya is Xiapi City. The notice to Pi Jun was that he hoped that Mi Zhu would use the Mi family's private soldiers to temporarily join the battle against the Yuan army. Going south to Guangling was naturally to find Chen Deng's help. After all, it is impossible to defeat the Yuan army by relying on the Mi family's family, and the Panlong army must be dispatched.

As for Qu County, no one thinks that Qu County can hold it, at most it is just a delay of a few days. But Mi Chong and Mi Ping, as well as a cadre in the county, did not think that Yuan Jun would slaughter the city after breaking it, because they did not dare.

There are many famous families in Qu County, as well as families like the Mi family who have countless families in Xuzhou and can quickly arm a team. Once they are really forced to hurry, some of these big clans have the means to penetrate into the enemy's territory behind their backs.

For example, cutting off the possibility of the Yuan army supplying grain and grass on the spot, and even agitating the people, sending family members to attack the Yuan army soldiers at any time, etc., but before the Yuan army did not make excessive moves, these big clans would not really resist the Yuan army so blatantly under normal circumstances, which is also the way the big clans survive in troubled times.

Outside the city of Qu County, the mighty Yuan army surrounded the county, but the soldiers were generally a little sluggish. After all, even if he is a Qingzhou soldier, he has not experienced a long journey at sea. The wind and waves are not as good as ordinary rivers, lakes and seas, even if it is offshore, several warships of the Yuan army have been overturned by the wind and waves, and the soldiers are also a little tired and sluggish because of the turbulence of the warships.

Ximen, Yuan Tan and Zhang He personally commanded the siege of Ximen. There were 3,000 soldiers at each gate, and another 3,000 reserves outside the west gate.

"Why, our soldiers are still a little sluggish, why don't you let the soldiers rest for a while before attacking the city?"

On the war horse, Yuan Tan puzzled and raised his own questions to Zhang He, although he was the commander of the Yuan army, but Yuan Shao handed over the actual command of the army to Zhang He, and Yuan Tan was actually more like a supervisor of the army.

Zhang He smiled and explained to Yuan Tan, "Our army is attacking Xuzhou from the sea, and the way of strategy is one word - fast!" We were tired, but the enemy was defenseless, and we had an advantage in comparison. Therefore, we must fight quickly, quickly take a few cities, and then get a place to rest and resupply. ”

"The most important thing is that the eldest prince, you must not underestimate Cao Jun's Mingjing Hall, I am afraid that the day after tomorrow at the latest, the matter of our landing in Xuzhou will be spread to Chen Deng of the Panlong Army and Xu Xuan and Mi Zhu of Xiapi City, and when the time comes, we will not be so easy."

Looking at Yuan Tan's sudden realization, Zhang He also understood that Yuan Shao sent Yuan Tan to attack Xuzhou with him. Among them, there is naturally the purpose of building momentum for Yuan Tan and allowing Yuan Tan to accumulate combat exploits, and it is more important for Yuan Tan to accumulate combat experience with Cao Jun.

Yuan Tan's military talent is actually quite good, he governs the army strictly and commands properly, but he lacks the experience of fighting with an army like Cao Jun that exchanges information very quickly and has elite soldiers. And let Yuan Tan face Cao Jun alone, not to mention the heavy losses, Yuan Tan himself was afraid that Cao Jun would be beaten out of the shadow in his heart, so he sent Zhang He, who had repeatedly clashed with Cao Jun on the frontal battlefield, to actually lead the army.

Yuan Tan said clearly, "So the purpose of dividing the army into three parts and attacking Quxian, Haixi, and Licheng respectively is also for rest and supplies after the war?" ”

Zhang He nodded, did not continue to speak, but set his eyes on the city.

In fact, they still made some mistakes in this attack and did not count the fishermen among them. Zhang He could see that there were people and soldiers at the head of the city carrying the equipment to defend the city, and it was obvious that the fishermen had informed the defenders in the city. However, even if there is a temporary defense, it is not much use in the end.

Zhang He raised his spear, pointed directly at the head of the city, and shouted "Siege!" ”

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

Although the soldiers of the Yuan army were a little sluggish, they still maintained a neat military formation and attacked the city gate.

Qu County was built near the swimming water, but because it was not a strategic location and the water source was abundant, there was no moat, only a moat. (Trenches with water outside the city are called pools, which can be used for defense and as a temporary source of water, while moats without water are called moats.) This also greatly reduces the difficulty of the siege.

The city of Qu County was two feet high, and the siege equipment carried by Yuan's warships was only cloud ladders and simple crashing wood, and the soldiers carried the collision wood and slowly advanced under the escort of the shield bearer.

"Shoot the arrows!"

The archers at the head of the city let out a rain of arrows, and then stopped firing them. Zhang He under the city sneered, his face was full of mockery, and even Yuan Tan on the side was sarcastic.

The Ximen guard of Qu County actually let the archers at the head of the city release arrows at such a distance, and it was not a round shot, but he actually shot the arrows at one time, which is really stupid.

Zhang He took out a bow from the horse's belly, took the arrow from the hands of his own soldiers, rode his horse to the side for a distance, aimed at pulling up the thick rope of the city's head suspension bridge, bent the bow and arrows in one go, closed his left eye, loosened his right hand, and shouted "Look!" ”

The bowstring sounded, the arrow pierced through the thick rope, and the drawbridge bent to one side.

Zhang He took another arrow, the bow was full of strings, and with a whoosh, the suspension bridge fell to the ground, making a loud bang.

"General Marksman!"

"General Marksman!"

"General Marksman!"

Seeing Zhang He's two arrows and shooting down the suspension bridge at the head of the city, the morale of the soldiers of the Yuan army was greatly boosted, and they all went to the city gate to kill.

In the general city, the people who hold the suspension bridge are iron cables, but because Qu County is not a military location, and it is close to the sea, there is no enemy who will attack it at all, so it is a thick rope that pulls the suspension bridge, and I can't imagine that Zhang He will attack the city with this.
