"The general is mighty!" Seeing Pei Yuanshao kill the enemy general, the soldiers around him shouted. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

For Pei Yuanshao, this group of soldiers was also a little convinced. In the past, because of Pei Yuanshao's background, he caused a lot of criticism in the army, even on the first level of generals, there are many people who see him as not particularly pleasing to the eye—————— it is not surprising, who called Pei Yuanshao is from a yellow scarf.

If it were just like this, although there were no generals from the Yellow Turban under Yan Shao's account (only Yan Shao knew about Zhou Cang's affairs), there were many soldiers who were supplemented from the captured Yellow Turban soldiers.

Unlike the Qingzhou Army in history, these soldiers did not dare to say how brave and good they fought under Yan Shao, and they could be regarded as doing their best. Yan Shao didn't have much rejection of these degraded soldiers, although there were no generals who could reach the level of Pei Yuanshao or Zhou Cang and Guan Hai, but there were a lot of low-level generals.

What really makes people look down on Pei Yuanshao is that he betrayed Xu He.

Perhaps in the eyes of others, this is called a person who knows the times as a junjie, but in the eyes of others, since Pei Yuanshao can betray Xu He, it is very likely that he will betray himself and others in the future, plus his background is not particularly good, he will inevitably be rejected in the army, and even many sergeants look at him with strange eyes.

Only a few people such as Yan Shao and Zhou Cang who were familiar with the details didn't say much...

Rejection is rejection, after seeing Pei Yuanshao kill the enemy general, the sergeants on the city wall couldn't help but cheer. In the cheers, Pei Yuanshao threw down Xu Gan's corpse and rushed under the city wall with a knife, and after the other sergeants cheered for a while, they also danced the blades in their hands and rushed forward.

There are still a lot of defenders in Linzi City, not to mention the direct soldiers and horses in Zheng Qi's hands, even the soldiers and horses supported by the family and the young men and women launched from the city are not a small number.

Linzi is different from other cities, as the seat of Qi State, and it is also the richest area in Qingzhou, with a rich family background that can be imagined in small counties such as Le'an. It only takes a few official vaults to open and easily find enough ordnance to equip tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.

The only problem is that the determination of the defenders ...

As I once said, defending a city is often not about the number of soldiers and horses, or the hard power of ordnance, but about determination. If you are determined, even if you are outnumbered, you can still play a miracle from a desperate situation—————— of course, this kind of miracle is not very easy to play, after all, miracles are called miracles because they appear too rarely.

But if you don't even have the determination to defend the city, then you really don't expect any miracles.

The current situation in Linzi City is also like this, it is not that there are too few troops in the city, nor that the ordnance is not sharp enough. In terms of troops, more than 10,000 people cannot be regarded as less, and the soldiers and horses besieging the city are only about 40,000.

If it is in a field battle, four to one can definitely be said to be bullying the weak with the strong and bullying the widow with the crowd, but this is a siege war, not to mention four to one in many cases, even if it is ten to one, it is difficult to say that it is enough.

As for the ordnance, as I said before, Linzi is the core of Qingzhou, and it is by no means comparable to ordinary counties in all aspects. The real key to the problem is the determination to defend the city, there are not many soldiers and horses loyal to Zheng Qi, and the rest are all from the family, or the young and strong people who are forced to move.

The former is okay, although he doesn't have much loyalty to Zheng Qi at all, but his responsibilities are still a little morale. The latter two really have no morale at all, and the soldiers and horses borrowed by the family themselves are only loyal to the family, and they have no loyalty to Zheng Qi.

The latter is really a complete rabble, and there may be no problem with other soldiers and horses watching, but as long as no one is watching, these soldiers and horses will disperse by themselves.

Now there are more and more soldiers and horses in Beihai who have climbed the city wall, and the soldiers and horses responsible for defending the city are constantly defeated, but I am afraid that it will not be long before this city will no longer be surnamed Zheng, but will be changed to Yan...

During this period, the generals who were effectively loyal to Zheng Qi wanted to kill the soldiers and horses who had ascended the city, but he didn't wait for him to rush for long, and when he looked back, the soldiers and horses who were supposed to follow him to charge into battle had already fled and there were not many left. Especially those soldiers and horses borrowed from the family and the young men who were mobilized, seeing that the situation was not good, how could they continue to work hard with the general, and they had already escaped from the city wall...

Seeing that there were enemy troops on the city wall all around, and there were not many soldiers and horses left beside him, the general let out a long sigh and threw down the blade in his hand...

—————————— Dividing Line——————————

Looking up and looking up, seeing that the shouting and killing sound above his head seemed to have weakened a lot, Zhou Cang smiled and said to Guan Hai. "Hurry up and clear the city gates, don't delay the army entering the city..."

"You still need to say this..."Guan Hai glanced at him and said to the soldiers around him. Why don't you get this damn thing out of here! ”

To say that Guan Hai's temperament is strong, it is somewhat similar to Zhang Fei. But he was born in a civilian, but he will not whip the soldiers at will, plus he is brave and brave, and he is very upright, if there is a family in the army who oppresses the soldiers with his family background, he will come to see the injustice or something, and he is still very popular in the army, but now he just opened his mouth, and the soldiers around him have already made a promise—————— in fact, he will cause so much trouble, and it is also related to his temper, fortunately, there is Yan Shao to protect him, otherwise...

Relying on the city wall alone, the number of soldiers who can come up is limited after all, and now they only occupy a small part of the city wall of Linzi City, and they can barely let some soldiers and horses climb the city wall, and most of the rest are still in the hands of the defenders.

Wanting to take Linzi with such a small number of troops is not wishful thinking, but the degree of difficulty is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Don't look at Yan Shao who brought more than 40,000 soldiers and horses this time, and the ratio of troops reached four to one, they are the minority in this city.

The city walls are fine, the terrain is narrow, and the defenders can't give full play to the numerical advantage, but what about the inside of the city?

The only way is to open the gates, so that the soldiers and horses outside the city can enter the city, and the victory in front of you can be completely established.

It's just that...

"These bitches are really strong enough..."Looking at the inside of the city gate that was stuffed, Guan Hai couldn't help but curse.

In order to prevent the city gate from being knocked open by the collision from outside, the defenders had already blocked the inside with wood and stones. In this case, let alone knocking the city gate open, even if the entire city gate is demolished, I am afraid that I will not be able to enter, so it is no wonder why the rushing cars outside have not been able to rush in.

If Yan Shao hadn't asked people to add a top cover to the rushing car, even if the sergeants with the rushing car were all shot to death by the archers with bows and arrows, I am afraid that it would be impossible to rush in.

"Let's go!" A group of soldiers took off their armor and rushed in bare-chested, and in a short time they emptied some of the stones and timber from the city gate.

The generals in charge of defending the city may have been incompetent, and it is impossible that they were not aware of the importance of the city gates, and they also sent some soldiers and horses to try to retake the city gates, but they all failed. Not to mention the two killers of Guan Hai and Zhou Cang, now the city gate tower is in Yan Shao's hands, condescending, and the rain of arrows alone is not something that the soldiers and horses who come to seize the city can withstand...

When the soldiers and horses climbed from the city wall approached 1,000, the originally blocked city gate was finally unblocked.

Looking at the wide open city gates, almost everyone understood one thing.

The victory is decided...

—————————— Dividing Line——————————

Maybe there are many people in Linzi City who do nothing, but to stand out from it, Zheng Qi can be regarded as having some ability. How could he not understand that his defeat was decided, and he no longer struggled hard, all the way back to his mansion, just sitting on the seat like this, Zheng Qi's spirit was a little trance-like.

"Lord, Yan Shao's soldiers and horses have entered the city, and several other families have also betrayed us, Lord, please prepare early, I will wait to escort the Lord out of the encirclement..."

There were still many blood stains on this man's armor, and at a glance he knew that he had just retreated from the fight.

However, hearing this person's words, Zheng Qi only nodded slightly, and stopped responding.

No matter how anxious the family will be, it will be like a wooden man.

Perhaps for him, the betrayal of those families had long been expected.

In the end, there was no other way, and the general could only grit his teeth and lead the soldiers and horses under his tent to the outside of the mansion again, wanting to desperately resist Yan Shao's attack. As for Zheng Qi? But it was as if he didn't feel anything, just looking up at the ceiling above him...

It was like a dream to him.

Originally, he was just the head of the Zheng family, but he was just an ordinary official under Jiao He. He still has some ability, but being able to serve under Jiao He comes down to his origin—————— Zheng family, which is also one of the largest families in Linzi City.

Even if Jiao He wants to serve in Linzi City, he needs to win over the Zheng family.

At that time, Zheng Qi didn't think much about it, just wanted to seek more benefits for his family under Jiao He's account. At that time, the world was certainly not peaceful, but there were loyal and upright people such as Huangfu Song, Lu Zhi and Zhu Jun in the court, and not too many people dared to rise up against it.

Who knew that it didn't take long for the news that the general He Jin was murdered by the Ten Standing Attendants, and the Ten Standing Servants were also killed by the important ministers of the court.

To be reasonable, when this news came, Linzi City was still full of joy.

As mentioned before, the contradiction between the family and the eunuchs is very deep, and this contradiction stems from the suppression of the family representatives by the eunuchs in the past. Now that the eunuch power has almost been wiped out in one fell swoop, how can this not make the family excited. However, when people were singing and dancing about this news, they didn't expect that this was just the beginning, the beginning of a troubled era...

The subsequent news was dazzling, Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, abolished the young emperor, and even poisoned the abolished emperor, etc., which attracted the anger of the people of the world. Coupled with the sour jujube alliance, Jiao He's previous contradictions with Yan Shao and the like.

But even at that time, Zheng Qi didn't have too many ideas.

Whether Jiao He or Yan Shao wins, it doesn't matter to him. Because he is a member of the family, he is in a way beyond this kind of strife. Whoever is in power needs to be kind to these families.

They have great power in the local area, and they are the object of everyone's attention.

Jiao He is like this, and so is Yan Shao.

Even if Yan Shao enters the Qi Kingdom in the future, he still needs their support, and it is impossible to tamper with their interests.

In addition, betrayal of this reputation is fatal to the family, even if he looks down on Jiao He from the bottom of his heart, he still does his job faithfully under Jiao He's account, waiting for the moment when Jiao He or Yan Shao will divide the victory or defeat...

Until...

Jiao He died suddenly...

I have to say that after Jiao He died, Qingzhou became chaotic in an instant, and the balance that was originally even was broken. However, none of this is much, the real impact is that after Jiao He's death, the Qi State fell into a situation of no owner.

It was at this time that Zheng Qi had his own ambitions...

That kind of ambition that never existed before...

If those heroes can compete for the world, why can't he? When it comes to his background, he may not be as good as a giant like Yuan Shao, and he is far stronger than the Yan family, using no less than a thousand hectares of land and more than 10,000 people.

In terms of ability, he asked himself that he was also stronger than Jiao He, and if he was in charge of the Qi State, he might not be inferior to Yan Shao. So he was originally just a spectator, but he took the initiative to plunge into the whirlpool of power struggle, and with his own ability and the influence of the Zheng family, he defeated all opponents and became the lord of Qi...

It's just that he just got to this position, and he had to face an embarrassing situation...

Yan Shao has already solved the two obstacles of Xu He and Wang Xuan, and is leading the army towards the Qi State, and it will not be long before the army will come to the city, and he will also face the biggest crisis in his life...

To be reasonable, if Zheng Qi is given some more time, he can be able to twist the Qi country into a ball, maybe it is not that he does not have the strength to fight, even if he loses in the end, at least he will not lose so badly.

It's a pity that he doesn't have this opportunity, and what he can do now is to wait quietly, wait...

Waiting for this person in front of me...

"You're Zheng Qi? Doesn't it look like there's anything special..."Under the escort of a group of armor soldiers, Yan Shao walked into Zheng Qi's mansion, looked at the man who was stunned in the room, and felt a little disappointed.

Originally, he thought that the man who could take over Jiao He's position would be a great character...

At the same time, outside the mansion, there was already a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood...

Maybe Zheng Qi himself has lost his fighting spirit, but the generals under him are different. The Zheng family has been passed down for more than ten generations, and many people have been serving the Zheng family since birth, and this loyalty has long been ingrained in their bones.

So when the Zheng family suffered a catastrophe, these people who had served the Zheng family all their lives did not even take a step back, just to be able to protect Zheng Qi, the person they have been loyal to all their lives...

It's a pity that even though the screams outside the mansion had been connected at that time, Zheng Qi still didn't move a step, just stayed in a daze inside.

Perhaps in his opinion, those people outside the mansion did this, after all, they were just their own belongings—————— and this was one of the reasons why he would lose...
