As for the messengers who set off from Yanqi City, Liu Bei's scouts were not unencountered, but they were instructed by Liu Bei, "When you encounter Yanqi scouts or messengers, all of them will be let go, and they must not be intercepted and killed." "That's why the messenger of Yanqi can pass through.

And Liu Bei's move was to take the initiative to withdraw his troops from the capital city of Longzhan in Gumo. In this way, Jia Xu may be able to make some achievements, but Liu Bei did not expect that Chi Xingmi of Wusun Country was so determined that he would lead the army to the south again, and at this time, it was only seven days before Chi Xingmi left Shule.

In just half a day, Liu Bei led the army to the north of Yanqi City, at this time there were already many guards on the north wall of Yanqi City, but Liu Bei was not in a hurry to attack the city, but secretly persuaded to surrender.

Yu Beiyan said that if you can surrender the army without a fight, it is the best policy. However, when they reached the city of Yanqi, they could not enter, so they were shot back by random arrows. The king of Yanqi did not see the envoy, and the guard of the northern city shouted: "Lord Duhu, don't send a messenger again, my king is willing to live and die with Yanqi." ”

However, the king of Yanqi did not want to see the envoy, let alone surrender, so he had no choice but to attack Yanqi with the whole army.

The general Lu Feng was ordered first, and the soldiers of the Hundred Battles Army abandoned their horses and fought on foot, cutting down trees in the surrounding mountains and forests first, making siege ladders, and half a day later, building hundreds of siege ladders.

After lunch, Lu Bu took the lead and led 3,000 troops to attack the north city wall, all of which were on the city wall, but there were too many defenders in Yanqi City, but they were pushed off the city wall several times. In this half a day, 3,000 soldiers suffered 1,500 casualties, and the defenders in the city did not count.

That night, in Liu Bei's account, Bu helplessly said: "Lord, a certain instinct can win in a battle, why should you want to conquer Yanqi City, and waste the lives of my sons." Why? ”

However, with Lu Bu's bravery, he could break through the Yanqi in one battle, and he was only hindered by Liu Bei's order and could not be broken.

"Don't be annoyed first, and don't want to squander Erlang's life, but if you don't do this, Wenhe will be difficult to break the coalition army, and when Wusun knows that I am in Yanqi, Wenhe will be in danger." Liu Bei squeezed out two tears and said.

"Feng Xian, look at it, late this night, there will be a large number of messengers out of Yanqi City, at that time, Feng Xian can hunt and kill some of them, let go of some of them, and prepare for the preparation, Gumo Dragon Battle will return to Yanqi in three days." Then Liu Bei said again.

At this point, Lu Bu suddenly realized.

Sure enough, in the middle of the night, more than a dozen messengers in Yanqi City went out of the city, and were killed by Lu Bu's army, and most of the rest were let go. After informing Liu Bei, Liu Bei was overjoyed, and said: "Feng Xian is a great contribution." ”

That night, the Beiqian scout and Huang Zhongying in the south of the city made an appointment to make a feint attack on Yanqi City the next day.

The next day, Lü Bu and Huangzhou, one in the south and the other in the north, attacked Yanqi City, but the attack was quite slow, and the defenders would eventually hold Yanqi. But King Yanqi sent messengers to Gumo three times a day.

In this way, Liu Bei summoned Zhao Yun, "Zilong, you will lead the tiger and leopard to ride with Wang Wei and go here, so and so." After that, Zhao Yun and Wang Wei led an army of 10,000 to leave the camp.

……………………………………

In the middle of the night, in the camp of the alliance army of Gumo and the dragon battle camp, the messenger of the king of Yanqi was ushered in.

"General, the capital of the Western Regions protects Liu Bei and leads an army of 20,000 out of Wusun to take the four northern cities of Yanqi, and is about to join forces with Shanshan and Huang Zhong to encircle the capital of Yanqi."

Long Zhan was shocked when he heard this, and said: "How can this be, Chi Xingmi failed to defeat Liu Beihu, what should I do?" ”

"The king asked me to send an order to the general to return to the army to defend the capital immediately, otherwise I will be in danger."

"I know, but I need to explain this time to the generals of other countries first." Long Zhan thought about it, Yanqi has 50,000 coalition troops to guard, and it will be able to support it for a long time, and he is not particularly anxious at this moment, he needs to think of a foolproof strategy to stabilize the coalition army and return to the capital.

That night did not rush the generals of the countries to discuss the matter, but unexpectedly, in the early morning of the second day, there were messengers from the capital, to tell the truth that Lu Bu was eager to attack the city, and attacked the city wall several times, and in just half a day, the defenders were killed and wounded 3,000 people, and the king of Yanqi estimated that once the siege equipment was complete, Liu Bei besieged the city on all sides, attacked the city of Qi, and died in three days at most, hoping that the general would return to the army as soon as possible.

Hearing this, Long Zhan was even more frightened, thinking that he had not slept all night, and then hearing this, but he was crumbling, fortunately guarded by his own soldiers, so he stabilized his body, and then he sneaked into the army to gather all the generals to come to the military tent to discuss.

In a few moments, the generals of all countries gathered in the dragon war account.

"What is the so-called matter of the general summoning us this time, what General Wusun Chi Xingmi said before is good, as long as we defend the city, Jia Xu will not dare to move, and now it has been nearly ten days, but Jia Xu has moved at all."

"Yes, we should continue to be careful, and when General Chi Xingmi returns, we should fight to the death with Jia Xu."

After all, the prestige of Long Zhan is not as good as Chi Xingmi, so Long Zhan has not yet spoken, and the generals shouted at each other, looking at the generals sitting down, Long Zhan shook his head helplessly.

"Generals, and listen to me, this situation is as optimistic as we think, according to the scout's report, General Chi Xingmi did not succeed in eradicating Liu Bei's army in Wusunne, at this time Liu Bei led an army of 20,000 to the city of Yanqi, and attacked my Yanqi with Shanshan Huang Zhong, Yanqi is in danger."

"How so?"

"Isn't there a mistake in the intelligence?"

"My general will not be like this, with the 50,000 people led by the general to fight Liu Bei's more than 10,000 people, they will definitely be able to win in one battle, how can Liu Bei say that he has reached Yanqi." It was the remaining generals of the Wusun Kingdom who spoke.

"Ladies and gentlemen, that's true." After Long Zhan finished speaking, he beckoned several messengers in, and after everyone finished asking one by one, everyone believed Long Zhan's words.

"Danger, and the country of Mi is in the north of the country of Yanqi, if the country of Yanqi falls, then the country of danger and the country of Mi is in danger." It was the general of the Dangerous State who spoke.

Hearing this, the general of the country was also shocked.

"Now, the fall of Yanqi is imminent, when the war led the army to aid the national capital, and Liu Bei a battle, if you can win the battle, it should be a great merit for the princes, and then lead the army outside the southern city to fight to the death with the lord with Jia Xu. If I die in battle, then you will hold on to yourself. ”

"The soldiers of the country should go with General Long."

"I will also go with the soldiers of the country."

At this point, not only Yanqi, but even the generals of the two countries will lead the army to return with the dragon war.

All the generals combined, this time the soldiers of the Three Kingdoms are gone, and 60,000 soldiers will be taken away, while the remaining soldiers in Nancheng are only 80,000, and the four have become young and strong.

The generals of the Three Kingdoms hurriedly reorganized the army, did not bring much grain and grass, and prepared ten days of dry food for each person, so that they could set off in the afternoon and rush all the way to Yanqi like a rapid march.

…………………………………………

Liu Bei Jia Xujun always paid attention to the situation of the camp outside the south city and the alliance army in the south city, but when he saw that the camp was still stable in the early morning, it was chaotic in the afternoon, and then the camp outside the city was immediately divided into two groups, one was transferred back to the south city, and the other group fled outside the south city and went straight to the northeast.

The scout reported the matter to Jia Xu, laughed, and said to his own soldiers: "Quickly go and summon the generals of all armies to our army tent to discuss matters." ”

After the tea time, the generals gathered in Jia Xu's military tent.

"Ladies and gentlemen, just after the scouts came to report, the coalition army divided its forces again, one to garrison the southern city, and the other to withdraw the troops to the northeast." Jia Xu said with a smile.

"Oh, that's a great joy, we should be able to compete with the coalition forces." Gan Ning said overjoyed.

"Xingba can only get one, not the other." Jia Xu nodded and said, "The coalition army is divided, and the military strength of the enemy and us is equal, but if a coalition army retreats, then I expect that the lord must have come out of the territory of Wusun, and at this moment, the troops are already under the city of Yanqi and other countries, and the time for our counterattack has come." ”

When everyone heard this, they burst into laughter.

For Liu Beijun, the counterattack is not the most joyful thing, the most important thing is Liu Bei's safety, and now Wenyan Liu Bei passed through Wusun safely, and the generals are overjoyed.

"Since the military has known about this matter, it must have made a plan, how to deal with it, and the military adviser will come to it." Yan Liang said anxiously.

Xu looked around, and suddenly saw Tian Feng bowing his head and groaning, so Feng said: "What is Yuan Hao like this, is there any unspecified expenditure?" ”

"No, those I am worried about, how to fight." Tian Fengjue Jia Xuzhi asked, so he replied: "There are two ways to fight this battle, one is to lead and surround it, attack it, and take the southern city in a short time at the cost of soldiers' lives; Second, the siege of the city is waiting for the arrival of the lord, with a strong army to attack it, and Qiuzi is in the northeast of Gumo, if the lord leads the army to come, it is bound to attack Qiuci along the way, or you can divide Qiuci's troops. ”

"I thought so, too. But I want to do both, and from tomorrow onwards, we will storm the southern city, and if we can win it, it is best, if not, we will besiege it. In this way, we will be able to resolve the battle as soon as possible. ”

Tian Feng nodded his head when he heard this.

After that, Jia Xu then issued a military order, with Gan Ning, Yan Liang and Xu Huang to surround the southern city on three sides, leaving the north alone. The siege began after breakfast the next day.
