Compared with the lively Tang Zheng's side, the air pressure in Zhang Chun's camp was a little dignified, everyone in Zhang Chun's big tent lowered their heads, and Zhang Chun was losing his temper. "Talk, why don't you speak, don't you usually be able to speak? Why are they dumb today. "20,000 people were dispatched, but nearly 8,000 people were destroyed, and the losses caused to the enemy were minimal, how can Zhang Chun accept such a result. Today was just a small tentative attack, and he suffered such huge losses, if he did this a few more times, even if he had an army of 100,000, he would not be able to withstand the attrition. "General, we didn't expect the enemy's defense to be so fierce, nor did we expect Gongsun Chan to dare to go out of the city to pursue under the siege of our 100,000 army." "I didn't expect it, what can you think of, what can you think of except for eating dry rice." Zhang Chun scolded at his subordinates. "I don't care what method you use, you must take down Xu Wu for me, I can't swallow this breath if I don't destroy Gongsun Zhan." Everyone reluctantly agreed. Zhang Chun waved his hand to let everyone out, and the group waited for amnesty, and hurriedly got out of Zhang Chun's big tent.

Cheng Pu and his cadres in Rinshan City were discussing in the barracks, when their own soldiers came in and said to Cheng Pu: "County Captain, Qiu Liju's army has been camped ten miles outside the city. "So fast?" "They have grown up on horseback since they were children, and their riding skills are much better than our cavalry, so it is not surprising that they came earlier." Cheng Hu said. "Now that the enemy has arrived, let's go to the walls together." Cheng Pu and his entourage walked towards the city wall.

When I arrived at the city wall, I saw the enemy waving flags and tents ten miles away. It was also the first time for everyone to see so many people huddled together, although there were now eighty or ninety thousand people in Rinshan City, but it seemed sparsely populated scattered in the huge Rinkan City, and the momentum of 100,000 soldiers and 100,000 civilians was not the same, and the enemy camp opposite from such a distance also gave people a feeling that black clouds were pressing down on the city. Cheng Pu looked at the enemy camp, and was a little glad that it was Qiu Liju who came, if Zhang Chun came with his own men, even if there was a strong city in Rinshan, I am afraid that he would not be able to resist for long, after all, Qiu Li's residence was led by cavalry, not to mention that the cavalry was not a big threat to the siege, and the people and horses of Qiu Liju's headquarters did not have much experience in attacking the city. Since the Han Dynasty, the war of the Han people against the Hu people has always been carried out in the form of hanging and beating, not to mention attacking the cities of the Han people, that is, seeing the Han army running a little slower, there will be a danger of annihilation. This time, if he hadn't heard about the civil strife in the Han Dynasty, the Han Court was busy suppressing the Yellow Turban thieves in the territory, or he wouldn't dare to come to offend even if he borrowed Qiu Liju's ten guts, but he didn't expect when there would be an extra strong city here. Qiu Liju looked at Rinshan City dumbfounded, he remembered that there was only one village in this area before, when did Han Ting build a fortified city here. There was no way, Qiu Liju had to camp ten miles away, it was not easy to get around this city, not to mention the long way to detour, even the rugged mountain road did not allow the 100,000 army to pass easily. Qiu Liju looked at the Rinshan Castle in front of him and asked the Bun Dun beside him, "When did such a fortified city be built on the other side?" Who is the guard, how many people are in it. "Father Khan, I don't know for the time being, I have already sent someone to inquire about the news." He replied, he also felt incredible, the construction of a city can not be repaired overnight, not to mention that the city in front of him is much more majestic than the ordinary border city, just like the trade city in the interior of the Han Dynasty is not like a border city at all, this city has been built for a while, the entire city wall is tightly fitted without a single gap, like a huge stone placed there, there is no trace of artificial carving, this is incredible. Qiu Liju waved his hand to signal him to go out first, while Qiu Liju himself looked at Rinyama Castle for a long time and was silent. If he knew that there was such a strong city lying here, he should attack Xu Wu with Zhang Chun, maybe he could take Xu Wu in one fell swoop, and then march from Xu Wu to Beiping. He didn't know that Zhang Chun had also broken down in Xu Wu. Zhang Chun thinks the same thing as him now, and he would have joined forces if he knew it.

In Luoyang West Garden, Emperor Han Ling was lying on the collapse and watched the two palace maids singing and dancing and knocking their legs hard for him. At this time, the attendant Zhao Zhong walked in from the outside, and shouted as he walked: "Your Majesty, good news, good news." Liu Hong waved his hand, and the singer and the palace maid around him got up and retreated, and only after the palace maid went out did Liu Hong ask: "What good news, I see that you are as happy as if you have eaten ginseng fruit." "Your Majesty, great news, it's really the ancestors and the ancestors blessed me with the Han River, General Zhu Jun sent a report, he and Jingzhou Assassin Shi Xu Xuan Xu made Jun break the Yellow Turban thief Sun Xia, Sun Xia was defeated, and now General Zhu has pursued to the West Hubei Jing Mountain, presumably the Yellow Turban around Wancheng will be exterminated soon. In addition, General Huangfu Song also came with good news: he killed more than 7,000 Yellow Turban thieves in Cangting, Dongjun, and captured the thief army Qu Shuai Buji. Your Majesty, you say that this is not great news. Zhao Zhong said with a smile. Hahaha, it is indeed great news, and when you come back, I will be rewarded. Come on, pass the decree and go down to the feast today, and invite everyone in the harem to celebrate. Liu Hong instructed the little yellow door beside him, and after the order, he asked Zhao Zhong: "By the way, what news is there from Youbeiping?" "Although Emperor Han Ling is mediocre, he still knows that only when the world is peaceful can he continue to enjoy the power in his hands, so he still has some concern about the affairs of Youbeiping." Back to Your Majesty, Youbeiping is fine for the time being, Qiu Liju is blocked outside Rinshan City and cannot be saved. Zhang Chun was also blocked by Tang Zheng and Gongsun Zhan in Xu Wu, speaking of this Tang Zheng really has some ability, when Zhang Chun's army first arrived in Xu Wu, he sent the forward battalion to lure Xu Wu's defenders to attack, and he led the army to guard aside, ready to wipe out the defenders out of the city, who knew that his plan was seen through by Tang Zheng, Tang Zheng sent people to pretend to attack Zhang Chun's forward battalion, and secretly sent a small group of men and horses around the enemy to burn thirty percent of the enemy's grain and grass, Zhang Chun heard that he vomited blood when he heard about it. Your Majesty, you said that this is not called stealing chickens, but it is not a handful of rice. "Zhao Zhong knew that Emperor Han Ling valued Tang Zheng very much, so he also said good things about Tang Zheng in front of Emperor Han Ling." Hahaha, this Tang Zhengzhen is really not mistaken, if I remember correctly, this Rinshan City was also built by him. "Back to Your Majesty, Rinshan City was indeed built under the auspices of Tang Zheng." "Well, okay, well, when the war in Youbeiping is settled, I will definitely call this Tang Zheng, I want to take a good look at what kind of talent can make so many contributions to me." Zhao Zhong said that when the war in Beiping is settled, Tang Zheng will definitely come to Luoyang.

Tang Zheng didn't know that he had been valued by Emperor Han Ling, and he was now looking at the letter from Cheng Pu. Seeing that Tang Zheng had finished reading it, Zhang Chao beside him asked Tang Zheng: "Childe, what happened to Rinshan City?" "No, everything is fine in Rinshan City now, except for Qiu Liju who has just launched a few siege battles, and now Qiu Liju is stationed ten miles away from Rinshan City, and he is not in a hurry to attack the city." "Oh, since Qiu Liju is no longer attacking the city, that's a good thing. Why is Childe worried? "The letter said that Qiu Liju had lost nearly 20,000 people after several battles, and we also lost nearly 2,000 people, and the current manpower was recruited by the eldest brother. I'm afraid that the eldest brother won't be able to hold his breath and go out of the city to fight Qiu Liju in the field. "Childe is too worried, Brother Cheng still knows the seriousness of the matter, I don't think he will rush out of the city." "Well, eldest brother, I understand, but I'm worried about Cheng Hu, this time his people sacrificed a lot, I'm afraid that he won't be able to hold his breath and rashly go out of the city, wait for me to write a letter to the eldest brother, you arrange for someone to pass it on quickly." After speaking, Tang Zheng began to write a letter, and handed it to Zhang Chao after writing. Zhang Chao took the letter and went out to arrange for someone to deliver the letter.

Rinshan Castle, "Big brother, you send me a thousand men to attack the enemy camp tonight." Cheng Hu said to Cheng Pu. Nonsense, what can you do with a thousand people, let's not talk about whether you can succeed or not, if there is an accident because of your Rinyama, who will be responsible, and then how can you have a thousand people sneak attack the enemy camp. Cheng Pu stopped Cheng Hu's impatience. Don't we have fire oil bottles? I took a thousand of my brothers, took bottles of oil and threw them at the enemy's camp, and even though he had an army of 100,000, I let him die in the fire. Cheng Hu still said a little unwillingly. Do you think people will be defenseless against us, since more than 10,000 people were burned by the fire oil bottle last time, do you think Qiu Liju still dares to come now? Maybe we have already laid an ambush and waited for us to take advantage of the fire oil bottle to steal the camp so that we can wipe us out, but what we want to do is to take the city out of the city and defend Rinshan. Well, you don't have to say more, if you go out without permission, you know the consequences. Hurry down and train the soldiers, these are just recruits, and try to familiarize them with everything about us as soon as possible. Cheng Pu kicked him out without waiting for Cheng Hu to say anything more. Cheng Pu also had a big head on Cheng Hu, Cheng Hu's original 1,000 subordinates were basically lost, he knew that Cheng Hu wanted to avenge his brothers, but the enemy was outnumbered and could only defend the city, although he destroyed more than 20,000 enemies, but for Qiu Liju, who had 100,000 people, it was not to the point of breaking his muscles and bones. Now the two armies have entered the stage of confrontation, Cheng Pu is waiting for Qiu Liju to take the initiative to attack, so that he can give the enemy a blow with the strength of the city, Qiu Liju is also waiting, waiting for Zhang Chun to take Xu Wu and then join forces with himself to take Rinshan in one fell swoop, after all, the Han people are good at defending the city and attacking the city.

The war on Xu Wu's side has also entered the confrontation stage, Zhang Chun's manpower in Xu Wu's loss is more than the manpower lost in Rinshan, after all, Zhang Chun's foot soldiers are the majority, and Zhang Chun has lost nearly 40,000 people several times in a row, Zhang Chun can be said to have broken his muscles and bones, if it weren't for the hatred of Gongsun Zan that blinded Zhang Chun, Zhang Chun would have withdrawn a long time ago. After fighting for so long, even Xu Wu's city wall has never been attacked. Tang Zheng's situation is not good, after more than ten days of fighting, the equipment to defend the city has been exhausted, and most of his personnel have been lost, and the cavalry of Gongsun Chan has also lost more than 1,000 people, and Tang Zheng's two Modao thousand-person teams have less than 500 people left, and the sacrifice of the cavalry is less than 500 people, of course, this is inseparable from Gongsun Zhan's vigorous protection. In many battles on the front line of life and death, Gongsun Chan did not send Tang Zheng's cavalry, but let his cavalry take the lead. The war has reached this point, it can be said that both sides are powerless, one side can still hold on to the city for a while, and the other side is still superior in numbers, and now no one can help anyone, so they can only confront each other as they do now.
