Chapter 0113: Jizhou City is empty

The spy's name is Jiang Jackal, who was originally a military commander in Wu'an City, Xun You once saw him in the army, and felt that he was quite clever and a talent to be a spy, so he sent him to take a few people into Jizhou City to collect intelligence. With {Dream} Xiao ◢.1a When Geng Wu Min Chun was arrested, the information that the officials close to the Han family were killed by Yuan Shao was sent by him.

Today, because there is no one to send, he can only go out in person. Since he had no horses, he hurried all the way, and by the time he reached Quang Binh City, it was getting late and the city gates had been closed.

Seeing that the city gate was closed, Jiang Jackal was so anxious that he stomped his feet. Just as he was hesitating whether to open the city gate, or to find a nearby village to stay for one night, and order someone to enter the city again to report, a loud voice came from the city: "Who is under the city?" ”

Jiang Jackal heard the question above, looked up, and saw several soldiers leaning out of the gap in the battlement and looking down. Although there was torch lighting in the city, Jiang Jackal couldn't see the other party's face clearly. Before figuring out the identity of the other party, Jiang Jackal would definitely not reveal his identity casually, but said perfunctorily: "I am a guy from the pharmacy in the city, and I went to deliver medicine outside the city on the orders of the owner, but I didn't know that I would be late to come back." Please make it convenient for a few military masters to let the small ones go into the city! ”

The people on the city tower waited for him to finish, and the voice just now asked again: "Which pharmacy are you from?" ”

Jiang Jackal had never entered Guangping City, how did he know what pharmacy there was in the city, and he was actually asked.

Seeing that Jiang Jackal was speechless, the people on the city tower felt that his identity was even more suspicious, and hurriedly ordered left and right: "Bow and arrow ready!" ”

When Jiang Jackal heard the voice above, he was immediately startled, and said in his heart that if I was shot to death by my own people, it would be too wrong. He hurriedly raised his head and waved his hands desperately at it, and said loudly: "Don't release arrows, don't release arrows!" I am a spy sent to Jizhou by Xun Shaofu, and I have an urgent military situation to report to Hou Ye. ”

"You said that you are a spy under Xun Shaofu, what evidence do you have?"

"Yes, yes, there is a waist card as proof!" Jiang Jackal hurriedly took out the waist card he had carefully kept from his arms and held it high, "If you don't believe it, you can put a hanging basket down and take it up for careful inspection." ”

After a while, a small basket hung from above. Jiang Jackal carefully put the waist card into the basket, and shouted at it: "Okay, you guys pull up." ”

The person who talked to Jiang Jackal on the city tower was Zhao Yun, and after he waited for the basket to be pulled up, he picked up the waist card placed inside, and with the help of the lighting of the torch, he could see clearly that there was a word "spy" written on it, and behind it were two numbers representing identity.

After confirming the identity of the other party, Zhao Yun instructed the soldiers beside him: "Open the city gate and let him in!" ”

Zhao Yun stood at the gate of the city and waited for Jiang Jackal to come over, returned the waist card to him, and at the same time indicated his identity: "I am General Zhao Yun, you rushed back overnight, is there anything important?" ”

Hearing that the person in front of him was General Pi, Jiang Jackal hurriedly knelt down on one knee and reported: "General Qiyu, the villain found out that Yuan Shao led the army to the boundary bridge, and there were only 800 county soldiers left in Jizhou City, so he reported back overnight. ”

"What, what did you say?" Zhao Yun was taken aback by this news, he grabbed Jiang Jackal's arm, lifted him up from the ground, and asked nervously: "What did you just say, there are only eight hundred county soldiers guarding Jizhou City now?" ”

"Yes, that's true."

"Great, that's great." Zhao Yun said, let his subordinates lead a horse for Jiang Jackal, and rode to the Taishou Mansion with him to report the amazing news to Han Zhan.

When Han Zhan heard the news of the emptiness in Jizhou City, he was stunned at first, and then asked rhetorically: "Jiang Jackal, is there really only 800 county soldiers guarding Jizhou City?" ”

"Back to the Hou Ye," Jiang Jackal hurriedly replied affirmatively: "Yuan Shao has already led the army to the boundary bridge, and there are only eight hundred county soldiers left in the city, which is equivalent to an empty city." ”

Although Jiang Jackal spoke a little casually, Han Zhan didn't care at all, he continued to ask, "Do you know who is in Jizhou after Yuan Shao leaves?" ”

"It's Jizhou Don't Drive Tian Toyota!"

After confirming the accuracy of Jiang Jackal's news, Han Zhan ordered Luo Bu to take him down to rest, and then summoned his civil and military forces to discuss how to seize Jizhou.

After Zhang He and Han Zhan finished introducing the situation in Jizhou, he immediately stood out of the queue, clasped his hands into fists and said, "Son, he is willing to lead the troops to take Jizhou." I beg Childe to agree! ”

Seeing that Zhang He took the initiative to ask for his life, Han Zhan's heart was still quite happy, Zhang He's performance was enough to prove that he was still quite loyal to himself. But after thinking about it, he still shook his head and said: "General Junyi, I plan to personally lead the troops to take Jizhou, while you stay here and stick to Guangping City." ”

After Zhang He was rejected by Han Zhan, although he was a little disappointed in his heart, he still replied: "The last general will obey the order!" He then retreated into the queue.

Han Zhan's gaze swept over everyone's bodies one by one, and finally stopped at Huang Zhong, who was standing at the end, and he opened his mouth and shouted, "Huang Junhou! ”

Hearing Han Zhan call his name, Huang Zhong hurriedly stepped out of the queue and replied, "My subordinates are here!" ”

"Order you to lead 3,000 cavalry and set off overnight!" Since Zhang He's return to Shun, Han Zhan has had several thousand more cavalry, and he decided to let the cavalry play a role in the battle to capture Jizhou, so he instructed Huang Zhong: "You can fight under the banner of General Jun and open the city gate." ”

These 3,000 cavalry were originally Zhang He's subordinates, and the banners and the like were ready-made. When Huang Zhong heard the task assigned to him by Han Zhan, he felt that he took the initiative to give credit to himself, and hurriedly replied: "My subordinates receive orders!" ”

After Huang Zhong's cavalry set off, Han Zhan also took Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, and Guo Jia, commanding an army of 10,000 and set off towards Jizhou overnight. Only Zhang He was left alone to stick to Guangping City.

Dian Wei, who was following Han Zhan, turned his head to look at the Guangping city wall that was getting farther and farther away, and asked Han Zhan with some concern: "Master Hou, Zhang Hexin will return to Shun soon, is it appropriate for you to hand over the city to him to take care of?" Or you let me go back to the city so I can spy on him. ”

"The captain is too worried," Han Zhan said to him with a smile: "As the saying goes: use people without suspicion and suspicion. Since I handed over the city to Zhang He, it proves that I trust him, how can I still send someone to spy on him? You follow me to Jizhou, which has a greater effect than staying in Guangping City. ”

Hearing Han Zhan say this, Dian Wei couldn't help but ask curiously, "What can I do when I go to Jizhou City?" ”

Han Zhan smiled and didn't answer, but he was thinking in his heart: "There are three fierce generals Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and Dian Wei by his side, not to mention that Yuan Shao only has Yan Liang and Lu Yi by his side, even if Wen Chou is added, he is still not my opponent." The recovery of Jizhou and the meeting with Gongsun Chan are just around the corner. ”
