Chapter 735: The Barbarians Attack

Originally, this kind of thing would not have attracted Liu Zheng's attention.

After all, this is the place of the tribes of the Southern Barbarians. Liu Zheng led these soldiers and horses to arrive here, which would always attract the attention of some Nanban tribes, and it was also appropriate to send some people over to investigate the situation here.

But after the ambush next to the stream, Liu Zheng had a clearer understanding of the situation here. It can be guessed that most of these people who continue to appear outside Yiling County are spies sent by the Xiongxi tribe to investigate the news of Yiling County.

Those people did not kill Liu Zheng at the place of the ambush and let Liu Zheng escape, and they also wanted to know if Liu Zheng had returned to Yiling.

If Liu Zheng returned to Yiling, maybe they would have learned the news, and it was very likely that they would send a large army to directly press the border, and it was not impossible to take the opportunity to eliminate Liu Zheng.

After Liu Zheng heard Gao Shun's words, he immediately gave an order to Gao Shun.

"General Gao Shun, these days have not been peaceful, Yiling County is close to the barbarian tribes, once they take action, we may not react in time, please leave the matter of defending the city and patrolling it, remember, be cautious and don't be careless!"

"Don't worry, the lord understands that the matter is important, and he will never take it lightly."

"Then I can rest assured, and I don't need to guard for long, I have ordered someone to go to Changsha to mobilize General Sun Jian's 20,000 soldiers and horses to come over, and when the time comes, we will cooperate with the Ganning army that is near Jiangxia, and we will have 50,000 horses near Yiling, sweep the entire Wuling County, and clean up these Manchu tribes!"

Liu Zheng nodded after hearing Gao Shun's words.

On the contrary, Lu Bu, who was standing on the side, looked down on Liu Zheng for being so cautious.

arrogantly said casually to Liu Zheng.

"Brother Liu, you are too careful, there are just some uncivilized barbarians here, do you need to be so cautious? If you want me to say, you only need to give me 5,000 men and I'll help you destroy all these barbarians! ”

Although Lu Bu has arrogant capital and has always been unkind when he speaks, he has also suffered a lot of losses for this, but he has never been able to develop a modest and cautious character.

There were not many people like him in the Three Kingdoms era, and the other was the famous martial saint Guan Yu, who also suffered from arrogance and arrogance.

Liu Zheng just smiled faintly at Lu Bu when he said this, and did not blame Lu Bu too much.

After all, Lu Bu is a powerful person, if he raises the bar with him, it will anger him and make him unhappy.

On the contrary, give him a few compliments and give him enough face, and he will feel that you are respecting him.

"Brother Fengxian, there are only a few Nanban tribes, and you don't need to make a move, if you lead people to sweep away these Nanban tribes, then you still need me to come here to do something, you can relax and supervise the war here, and when you encounter something that I can't handle, then Brother Fengxian, you will come out to turn the tide, isn't it beautiful?"

Lu Bu smiled and listened to these two flattering words from Liu Zheng.

There was already a little smile, but the smile on his face was even brighter.

"Since Brother Liu said this, then I won't say anything more, everything is up to you!"

Lu Bu was complimented by Liu Zheng, and he was very satisfied, so he retreated and stopped talking.

And Liu Zheng's side has just returned to Yiling, but before his ass is hot, there is a Jinyi guard to report, not far from Yiling City, there is a figure of soldiers and horses mobilized.

This sentence frightened Liu Zheng, and he, Gao Shun, Lu Bu and others did not dare to delay, and immediately ran to the city tower in Yiling County.

This news was passed back by Jinyi Wei in advance, so those barbarian soldiers and horses have not yet approached Yiling City.

But when Liu Zheng and Liu Zheng led Lu Bu, Gao Shun and others to the city tower of Yiling County, some people had already faintly appeared outside the city.

There are not many people, but at first glance, it can be seen that there are at least two or three thousand people.

Liu Zheng lay on this battlement, glanced outside the city, and was relieved when he saw that the tile surface was only two or three thousand soldiers and horses.

"What do you want to do with this person?"

Liu Zheng frowned, a little unsure what the other party wanted to do here.

However, just as Liu Zheng was frowning and thinking, those barbarians had gradually approached the city tower, and without saying a word, they directly launched an attack.

The charge of two or three thousand soldiers and horses began to attack Yiling County without any basis, which frightened Liu Zheng.

However, after all, it is only two or three thousand people, and it is not enough to make Liu Zheng afraid, on the tower of this city, there are thousands of soldiers brought over by Shiwu alone.

Not to mention two or three thousand people, even if there are several times more people, it is impossible to knock down this Yiling County.

At this time, shouts began to be heard from the city, and some people began to charge towards the city gates.

For this kind of death-like behavior, Liu Zheng didn't even have the idea of commanding the battle, and immediately handed over the power of defense to Gao Shun.

"General Gao Shun, it seems that you have something to do, don't let these jumping clowns enter the city."

Liu Zheng just gave a simple order, and then watched the play with Dian Wei, Guo Jia and others on this city floor.

Gao Shun received the order and let these defenders on the city tower start to deal with these barbarian warriors who came to attack the city.

Originally, I thought that these barbarian soldiers and horses attacked the city decisively, and they should not be defeated too quickly, but who knows, after Gao Shun led some soldiers and horses to be responsible for the defense, those barbarian soldiers under the city seemed to be frightened, and they scattered.

The dispersal of Wuyang Wuyang.

It made Liu Zheng stunned, he didn't expect that these people were so greedy for life and afraid of death.

Gao Shun had some doubts.

I don't know why these barbarian soldiers suddenly came to attack Yiling, and why they suddenly withdrew.

However, since these people left, the preparations for a siege battle were dispersed like this, and Liu Zheng didn't say anything, but just felt puzzled.

Time passed.

On the second day after Liu Zheng returned to this Yiling, when night was about to fall, something wrong finally appeared outside the Yiling City again.

Originally, there were only two or three thousand soldiers and horses to attack Yiling City, but in just one day's effort, there were several times as many barbarians outside this Yiling City.

Densely appeared outside the city of Yiling, with the help of the cover of trees, for a time, the number of people exceeded 10,000, and the county town of Yiling was surrounded by regiments.

Liu Zheng, who was still eating, heard that Liu Zheng, who was from his Jinyi guard to report the news, his face changed, and he immediately began to investigate the authenticity of this matter, and hurriedly ran to the city tower.

When he saw these barbarian soldiers under the city, he finally understood that the siege of those soldiers before was just a temptation, and the real siege was now.
