Chapter 329: Zhong Xuan

After all, Avanti is a native of the Western Regions, and it is too difficult for him to have any loyalty to the Han Dynasty, his mountain consciousness is very heavy, and he thinks that he is under Zhao Hao's command, so he has been thinking about how to let Zhao Hao ascend to the supreme position, so as to be a founding hero and grab greater benefits.

Since the Liu Yan incident, Avanti has been secretly plotting, and it can even be said that he is the one who wants Ji Han to perish the most!

Avanti always thought that he had no last resort, but in front of Zhuge Liang, he seemed to be unable to carry out all the intrigues and tricks in his body, and in desperation, he could only choose another way-

Shi Bao is brave and strategic, he is second only to Zhao Hao as a genius general, and he is a subordinate, and has no foundation, he can only rely on Zhao Hao's side, as long as he creates enough anxiety, in the battle to eliminate Dongwu, he will easily become his right-hand man, when the champion Hou occupies Yongliang, Shi Bao occupies the southeast, and the court can really control only the small land of Yizhou.

However, Shi Bud quickly saw Avanti's intentions, he was not provoked by Avanti, and was willing to be Wenpin's deputy general, which made Avanti's face a little ugly.

He groaned for a while, the wrinkles on his face twitched a few times, and he slowly moved his shoulders a few times, and the sound of the joints of Gragra made Shi Bud a little nervous.

This old guy won't attack himself directly, will he?

Shi Bao prides himself on being the closest person to Zhao Hao, and he also thinks that he knows Zhao Hao quite well, he is confident that Zhao Hao will never rebel, Avanti's move is just his own assertion and wants to force Zhao Hao to comply.

In essence, this guy is no different from those wealthy dignitaries in Yizhou, they just want to use Zhao Hao as a bargaining chip to realize their ambitions.

"In that case, please be careful."

Avanti spoke slowly, finally letting Shi Bud breathe a sigh of relief,

He wants to be a minister of Zhongxing who will leave a name in history, but he doesn't want to be a pioneer in the chaos of the world.

How did he know that Avanti did not give up in his heart, he said in his heart that Shi Bud was a genius and a famous general, and sooner or later he would have to become his own person to rest assured, and he would have to plan more later.

Wenpin Shibao won a big victory, the vitality of Eastern Wu was greatly injured, Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu, who were stationed in Xiangyang, finally put their minds at ease, they were strong, Zhuge Liang was ready to lead the army to attack Wuguan to respond to Zhao Hao, Guan Yu personally commanded the Northern Expedition, and the soldiers pointed directly at Luoyang, and everyone believed that the day of reviving the Han Dynasty was not far from the old capital.

ยท

Shi Bao is fighting hot, Zhao Hao also began to slowly tighten the encirclement of Chang'an, Zhang Nan Feng Xi fought all the way, and finally came to Chang'an City to meet Zhao Hao, Zhao Hao is now sitting on an army of 80,000, naturally can not let Cao Pi and Sima Yi in the city have a good time.

After ruthlessly pulling out the last few strongholds of Cao Wei around Chang'an, he began to order people to build a large number of Xiangyang cannons, preparing to break through from the southern city, and Ding Feng, who had dug a large number of trenches on the east and west sides, was also gearing up, and these days he used the trenches to launch several assaults on Chang'an at close range, and saw that Chang'an's defense was crumbling, which strengthened everyone's determination to quickly defeat Chang'an.

On this day, Zhao Hao convened everyone to discuss, ready to formulate a strategy for attacking Chang'an on the whole front, never thought that everyone had just gathered together, and heard that the southern city of Chang'an was open, and about 3,000 Wei troops slowly came out of the city and launched an attack on the position of Xiangyang artillery.

Ding Feng laughed when he heard this, he slapped the table hard, and said with his eyebrows: "You still dare to come out, it seems that they also know the power of this Xiangyang cannon, I am worried that they will not come out, and I will leave it to my sons and daughters to deal with." โ€

Xiang Lang said gently: "General Chengyuan, the enemy is from Nancheng, it is better to leave it to us to deal with, don't arbitrarily mobilize your athletes, so as not to fall for the tricks of the thieves." โ€

Ding Feng patted his chest and said: "What's there to be afraid of, now there is a rumor in Chang'an City, and none of Cao Wei's group have eggs, I think this time the troops must be thunder and rain, maybe they will be scared as soon as they move." โ€

Except for Ding Feng, the others were a little skeptical of Chang'an City's actions,

Now the Wei army is trapped in Chang'an, and the reinforcements are fighting with Wei Yan near Tongguan, at this time, even if Xiangyang cannons are everywhere, the Wei army should only defend to the death, and 100% will encounter the main force of the Han army when going out of the city, not to mention that there are only about 3,000 people, what is the difference between such a tactic and sending to death.

Lu Luan sat under Zhao Hao, and said a little curiously: "There are only three thousand people, do you know who the commander of the Wei army is?" โ€

Cheng You replied: "It seems to be Zhong Xuan, the spies reported that their military appearance is very strict, and they are rare elite soldiers in Chang'an City." โ€

Now there are rumors that there are countless people who are willing to take refuge in the Han army, Cheng You can easily develop a large number of school affairs agents to serve her, and there are some things she knows far better than Cao Pi Sima Yi in the city.

Hearing that it was Zhong Xuan, Zhao Hao was a little silent,

He had heard of Zhong Xuan's name in his previous life, this old guy had a very high status in the history of calligraphy, and there were classic works such as declaration posts that have been passed down to future generations.

In this Northern Expedition, Zhao Hao also did a certain amount of research on Zhong Xuan's life, and found that he was really both civil and military, very good at using soldiers, and he was in Guanzhong, so that Cao Wei was safe and sound, which can be said to be an important pillar of Cao Wei.

Before besieging Chang'an, Zhao Hao asked Cheng You to send someone to contact Zhong Xuan to try to rebel against this old guy, so it should be very easy to capture Chang'an.

At the beginning, Zhong Xuan's attitude was also relatively positive, and he also sent people out of the city many times to discuss with Zhao Hao how to protect the wealthy family in Chang'an City after the city was broken.

But later, Sima Yi probably discovered the key, Zhong Xuan was forced to cut off contact with Zhao Hao, and personally mobilized the wealthy families in the city to donate money and materials, and fought Zhao Hao to the death.

This time, he actually led the troops out of the city in person, I really don't know what the road is.

"I'll go talk to Zhong Xuan in person." Zhao Hao pretended to be relaxed.

"Champion Hou, kill chickens with a knife, and you will personally go to 3,000 people, wouldn't it be too much to give face to this old thing."

Everyone took the initiative to ask for help, and Lu Yi, who had never made any contributions, also came up to join in the fun, and asked Zhao Hao to give him a thousand men, which was enough to repel Zhong Xuan.

"Hehe, don't be careless, Zhong Xuan has been commanding the army for a long time, he is not a nobody, and he has a very high status in Guanzhong, so he can't underestimate the enemy - let me go and talk to him, maybe I can surrender the army without a fight."

Everyone doesn't have the slightest doubt about this, Zhao Hao has won all battles, and he is the best at fighting, he can make other people's mentality explode at every turn, and do something contrary to common sense.

Guan Yinping helped Zhao Hao put on his clothes and armor, and the husband and wife rode their horses together, only bringing a thousand infantry, and hurriedly greeted Zhong Hao in the direction where he came.

Zhong Xuan also couldn't say it, Sima Yi in Chang'an City was increasingly suspicious of him, and with the support of Cao Pi, now Sima Yi had mastered the defense of the entire Chang'an City, and could even kill the object of his suspicion at will.

Zhong Xuan has a high status, so he is naturally not afraid of Sima Yi killing him, but he is old, and now he is worried that Sima Yi will kill his relatives.

Sima Yi had hinted several times that Zhong Miao would go out of the city to fight in order to disrupt the Han army's preparations for an attack outside Chang'an, and Zhong Xiang was also a person who knew the soldiers, knowing that if the enemy outside the city was ready to attack the city, it would really be undefendable, and he would almost be destroyed in a battle.

Under heavy pressure, Zhong Xuan could only choose to lead his own elite troops to fight, he made up his mind, he must not be too far away from Chang'an, once he encountered the main force of the Han army, he would immediately turn around and return to the city, and never give the enemy any chance to divide and encircle.

Endure it, endure it, as long as you endure until Chang'an City is broken and your family is safe, even if you donate this old bone, there is no problem.

People in their seventies in this era are very rare, and the mentally exhausted Zhong Xuan has been in a trance since he left the city, he rode on a horse, and heard the squire leading the horse beside him exclaimed, so he slowly opened his tired eyes and slowly looked ahead.

"Zhong Gong, the Shu army is here!"

"What are you panicking, the formation is not moving, and you are ready to meet the enemy."

"Zhong Gong be careful, it seems to be Zhao Hao, the commander of the Shu army!"

Zhong Xuan's spirit was shocked, he straightened up on the horse, and said, "It's okay, I'll go and see Zhao Hao in person." โ€

"Zhong Gong can't, be careful of Zhao Hao's deceit!"

Zhao Hao's reputation is now ten miles away, he is the best at civil fighting, and directly attacks the opponent's commander in the battle between the two armies to achieve the purpose of destroying the opponent's command system.

He is as merciless as a greedy snake, and anyone who dares to meet him will surely suffer a terrible end.

Zhong Xuan shook his head tiredly and said, "A handful of old bones, if you can die in the hands of a young hero, it will be good, it will not hurt." โ€

Zhong Miao didn't say it casually, after all, he is also a person who has experienced the chaos in the world, and has seen almost all the heroes in the world, whether it is Lu Bu or Ma Chao, although he is strong and unparalleled, he is just a martial artist, and he can't do anything.

And this Zhao Hao ......

Although he has never seen him, he single-handedly led 30,000 troops to the Northern Expedition, and he was able to defeat Cao Wei to the ground, and even the emperor was surrounded in Chang'an.

If such a person can't be seen with his own eyes, Zhong Miao really feels regretful in his life.

He rode a thin horse to meet him slowly, which made Zhao Hao a little surprised.

Zhao Hao also knows that he has a reputation, and there are only a few people in this world who dare to fight with him, how dare this Zhong Xuan come out single-handedly, is he as powerful as Yu Tuo, and he is not afraid of his own sneak attack at all?

Thinking of this, Zhao Hao asked Guan Yinping to suppress the formation, rode forward by himself, kept a certain distance from Zhong Xuan, and then bowed lightly:

"I have heard the good name of Yuan Changgong for a long time, and it is an honor to see it today."

Zhong Xuan's face full of vicissitudes showed a burst of joy from the heart, and he nodded and said: "I have heard that the champion Hou is the best in the world, but the old man is dizzy, and he can't see the face of the champion Hou, which is really a pity." โ€

"So what, when the world is calm, Hao should personally visit Yuan Changgong in the house, and there will be no need to be tense at that time, so general."

Zhong Miao nodded and smiled: "I'm so angry, if the old man doesn't die today, he will definitely have a good time with the champion Hou one day." โ€
