Yingchuan, in the county guard's mansion, everyone is sitting in the lobby

The veteran Huang Zhong had already taken care of the wounds on his body, and Zhao Yun had also washed up, removed his blood-stained armor, and changed into civilian clothes.

"Alas! The old general suffered more than ten wounds this time! Don't make Ben Hou sad! Guan Ying looked at Huang Zhong, who was covered with linen, and said sadly.

"Alas! Master Hou doesn't blame himself! The veteran is ashamed of the Hou Ye! This is thanks to General Zhao for sacrificing his life! Otherwise, I'm afraid that the old decay will die in Luyang this time! Huang Zhong sighed.

"Alas! The old general is polite! If it weren't for the old general Kaicheng to accept our army in front, our army might have let the Jiujiang army encircle and annihilate it long ago! Moreover, it was also the reason for the old general's acceptance that the Niu Gao brothers saved their lives! Zhao Yun immediately stepped forward and said modestly.

"That's it! I was able to pick up this life thanks to the old general! ”

"Yes! Old general, you don't have to blame yourself! I think that although the old general is already at the age of ancient times, the sword is not old, and he can still be hired on the field, which really makes the kid admire! ”

On the way back to his hometown, Lu Wenlong had already heard Zhao Yun tell him the reason for the disadvantage of sending troops this time, and told Lu Wenlong all the causes and consequences of the incident.

It turned out that since Niu Gao was injured by Lu Bu. Zhao Yun originally wanted to take the troops to the nearby city to repair, but helplessly, this city could not be found, but encountered the vanguard of the Jiujiang Army! Lejin had only more than 5,000 people and was quickly defeated. Zhao Yun was afraid that Le Jin would move his troops, so he ordered to pursue Le Jin, intending to annihilate Le Jin in one fell swoop!

In the midst of the chaos, Zhao Yun also successfully stopped the main general Le Jin. Lejin was naturally not Zhao Yun's opponent, and was defeated by Zhao Yun in only three rounds. When Zhao Yun really wanted to make a move, Xiahoudun arrived with the main force.

Zhao Yun looked at Xiahoudun and saw that the Jiujiang soldiers were so powerful that they couldn't take advantage of it, so they had to order the withdrawal of the army. But unfortunately, this Xiahoudun bit the Chu army to death, and pursued the Chu army for more than 50 miles. At this time, the Chu army was already sleepy and lacking horses, but fortunately, there was no endless road, and the scouts in front returned, and the front was the border of Luyang, with Yingchuan defenders stationed, and Zhao Yun took the men and horses straight to Luyang.

After Huang Zhong, who was sitting in Luyang, learned that it was the Chu army, he let Zhao Yun enter the city and found a healing medicine for Niu Gao, which made Niu Gao pick up a life!

Zhao Yuncai learned the news of Han Xinjun's retreat from Huang Zhong's mouth, and his hanging heart calmed down a little. Xiahoudun came to the city with the horses of the Jiujiang Army!

Later, it was the Jiujiang Army that launched a surprise attack at night with the advantage of numbers, and successfully captured Luyang.

Lu Wenlong looked at Huang Zhong, who was covered with injuries, and naturally admired it in his heart, and immediately thanked him.

"Alas, my lord, this time the loss is quite large. Our army has basically lost everything!"

"Yes! This time, our army also lost nearly 3,000 horses, and now there are only 3,000 men and horses left in Yun's hands. This is still the point that the East Gate is not the focus of the Jiujiang Army's attack. Otherwise, the situation is not optimistic!" Zhao Yun shook his head and said.

After listening to Huang Zhong's words, Guan Ying's face became more and more ugly.

After all, there were no more than 20,000 regular troops under Guan Ying, and the rest were some county soldiers and county soldiers, not even a rabble, they were completely raised for white rice.

When Chen County was lost before, Huang Zhong lost more than 5,000 people, and this time the Luyang defenders had more than 7,000 people, and they were all eaten by the Jiujiang army again.

And Liang Tai, who died in battle, did not return with any of his 5,000 men. After careful calculation, there are only more than 3,000 soldiers and horses in the hands of Guan Ying. How to resist the fierce attack of the Jiujiang Army?

At present, Guan Ying is not only a major general and a widow, but also seven or eight out of ten of the land in Yingchuan have fallen into the hands of the Jiujiang Army, and now there are only three counties under the rule of Yingchuan in the land controlled by Guan Ying!

In the evening, everyone had eaten together. And they took counsel in the church for the whole night of fighting.

In the end, Guan Ying decided to give up the surrounding three counties and mobilize all the troops and materials from the three counties under his rule to Yingchuan!

…………

On the third watch, except for the soldiers patrolling the city tower, the people in the city had already turned off the lights and fell asleep.

Huang Zhong, who was stationed in the city tower, received a message from the baby, and immediately went straight to the Yingyin Marquis Mansion.

When he arrived in the mansion, under the leadership of the guards, Huang Zhong came to the main hall.

In addition to the two oil lamps lit in the main hall, they were trying to emit a faint light, so that the dark main hall could reveal a glimmer of light.

And the baby was sitting alone in the dark at the moment, his eyes moving slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Lord, Hansheng came late at night, I don't know what the important thing is?" Huang Zhong arched his hand.

"The old general doesn't have to be much, let's sit down first. This time, the old general came not to tell him something important, but that Ben Hou wanted to talk to the old general. At this time, the baby irrigation is meaningful.

"My lord, please speak."

"Old general, I want to ask you, what do you think of the Chu army?"

"What the general means ......" Huang Zhong heard it, and immediately realized something.

As Guan Ying nodded slightly, Huang Zhong immediately said: "Don't hide it from the lord, after the observation of the old decay in the past few days, the soldiers and soldiers of Chu are strictly disciplined, and the generals are all loyal and righteous. ”

"Really?" When the baby heard this, he was immediately moved.

"Well, although Zhao Yun is silent, he can sacrifice his life to save the old in the chaos of the army, and he is really a loyal and righteous person!"

Seeing Huang Zhong's unthinking appearance, he handed over the letter sent by Lu Wenlong to Huang Zhong for review.

Huang Zhong took advantage of the faint light of the fire to read the letter and said, "What does the lord mean, the old man understands. Although the old man has not worked with the marquis, he is also familiar with it. Jianghou is a simple, strong, honest and honest person. Since the Marquis is like this, there must be a reason!"

"Good! With the words of the old general, the Hou has already made up his mind! Early tomorrow morning, I will personally visit Lu Wenlong and give him an answer!" When the baby heard this, he immediately decided to surrender.

"Lord Shengming!" When Huang Zhong heard this, he was immediately overjoyed.

In fact, Huang Zhong knew that Guan Ying did not think about dying in Yingchuan, but when he saw his family, he felt ashamed.

Although Huang Zhong is old, he is not an unreasonable person. He knew in his heart that if the infant really defended Yingchuan, then on the day the city was broken, there would inevitably be a bloody storm in the city, and it would be the people who would suffer at that time.

Now the princes of the world are all subordinate to Liu Bang, only Zhao Tuo, the relict general of the Qin Dynasty, and Xiang Yu of Jiangdong.

That Zhao Tuo is a relict general of the Qin Dynasty, although he fought with Liu Bang in Bashu, but the land is far away and dangerous. Filling the baby is a national enmity, and it is naturally impossible to go to it.

So Xiang Yu is the only candidate and the best candidate! Since Xiang Yu threw an olive branch at Guan Ying, why did he refuse?

And among the Chu army, all are loyal and righteous, Huang Zhong will naturally try his best to gather a group of babies to surrender Xiang Yu!
