After leaving Gongcao Mansion, Liu Yi and others came all the way to the city tower.

"How many archers do we have now?" Liu Yi looked at the two rings under the city and asked.

Seeing that Liu Yi began to become serious, Yao Lie and the others did not dare to make a mistake like before.

"Back to the lord, we didn't bring archers when we first came, and the only people who can be used as archers are more than 1,000 people under my subordinates."

Hearing Yao Lie's words, Liu Yi couldn't help frowning.

When he was in Zhongqiu, the archers who defended the city were all imperial soldiers under Lu Zhi, and when he came out of Zhuoxian, he originally thought that he was a layman, and he didn't need to bring archers. Unexpectedly, now he has become the main force defending the city.

In desperation, Liu Yi said to Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, "Yide, Yun Chang, you should go to the army immediately and take a look, look for soldiers who are good at shooting, and those who can pull the bow are counted!" Find out and give each person a bow and ten arrows. Use it as an archer when the time comes! ”

"Yes!" The two of them answered and walked down the tower.

"Yao Lie, do you think how many archers do you need to be able to stand on these two ring cities?"

Hearing this, Yao Lie looked at the walls of Weng City and Yuecheng under the city gate, and made a simple estimate, and replied: "If you want to have no defensive corners, you have to have 1,800 people!" ”

Liu Yi nodded and said, "Yes, I think 1,800 people are enough to be able to defend the city, this time, even if we have no chance to take the initiative to attack, we can only rely on these outer cities to defend!" ”

"Don't worry, the lord is only 50,000 people, and we now add up to nearly 30,000, 30,000 against 50,000, and it's a defensive battle, our chances of winning are very big!" Yao Lie comforted.

Liu Yi replied with some concern when he heard this, "Although it is reasonable, but now in our team, the one who really has the same heart with us has to be the old man brought from Zhuo County, whether the 20,000 yellow turbans are really obedient, no one can say at this time!" ”

It is said that "there is no doubt about employing people, and people are not suspicious", but how many people can do it, when you don't know who you want to use and can't take the risk of employing people, which one dares to hand over their life and death to others.

"My lord is right! If we calculate it in this way, then we can use only the three thousand people of Lord Wei, and the remaining old subordinates of less than nine thousand! ”

Liu Yi didn't speak when he heard this, but kept staring at the city, not knowing what he was thinking about.

After thinking for a while, Liu Yi turned his head and said to Yao Lie, "How many trustworthy people may be found in those Yellow Turban Army?" ”

Yao Lie didn't understand Liu Yi's intentions, thought about it and replied, "There are still a few, and a few of them are a little skilled, I looked at them at the time, and they were all good seedlings, so I asked for them from Yide." ”

It is said that Zhang Bao's 20,000 Yellow Turban troops have been handed over to Liu Yi since he followed Liu Yi, Liu Yi divided the 20,000 people into two shares, 10,000 people were handed over to Zhang Fei, and 10,000 people were handed over to Guan Yu.

As for Yao Lie's poisonous scorpion, Liu Yi ordered that "all the soldiers that Yao Lie fancies, no matter which team he was in before, Yao Lie can be seconded at any time"

Of course, there is also a premise for this, that is, Yao Lie must be Zhang Fei and Guan Yu's unused soldiers, otherwise, the teeth that the two of them have worked so hard to cultivate will be "snatched" away by Yao Lie, and the two of them would have blown up the temple a long time ago!

Before coming to Chenliu, Yao Lie had selected two or three hundred scorpions from the two-person army to enrich himself, including several Yellow Turban soldiers with good skills.

"You go and call a few of them, I have something to explain!"

"No!"

At this time, in the face of the upcoming Zhang Jiao and the possible restlessness in his own team, Liu Yi had no choice but to take risks.

"Lord, someone brought it up!"

I saw several strong men around thirty years old brought up by Yao Lie.

"Meet the Lord!" Several people saw Liu Yi and bowed respectfully to Liu Yi.

"Excuse me!"

"Thank you, lord!" Several people responded in unison

After a few people got up, they stood respectfully behind Yao Lie and waited for Liu Yi's orders.

Looking at the appearance of several people, Liu Yi couldn't help but nod his head in approval.

"You guys come here, I have something to explain to you"

After Liu Yi finished speaking, several soldiers hurriedly walked in front of Liu Yi.

......

The flowers bloomed two and one branch each, and when Liu Yi was busy resisting Zhang Jiao here, the government office in Changshe County, Yingchuan County, Yuzhou was very lively.

"General, today Zhang Jiao led the troops to attack Chen Liu, Chen Liu's garrison is not enough to resist, and the last general is willing to lead the army to rescue Chen Liu!"

The person who spoke was none other than Sima Sun Jian, a military officer from Jiangdong.

It is said that Sun Jian (Ziwentai) was seventeen years old when he followed his father to beg for thieves, and once took a boat with his father to Qiantang, on the way, he met the rampant pirate Hu Yu and others who robbed the merchants' property and shared the spoils on the shore. When the caravan travelers saw this, they were so frightened that they stopped moving, and the passing ships did not dare to move forward. Only Sun Jian saw this and said to his father: "This thief can be attacked, please ask for it." ”

Seeing this, Sun Zhong, Sun Jian's father, personally got off the boat and took Sun Jian to kill Hu Yu and others, and after a scuffle, Hu Yu and others were all beheaded, but Sun Zhong's father and son were unharmed, and the bravery of his father and son can be seen.

At the beginning of the crusade against the Yellow Turbans, Zhu Jun once asked Emperor Liu Hong to ask Sun Jian to be the Sima of the Zuo Army, and then Sun Jian has been following Zhu Jun around.

Seeing that Sun Jian said that he would lead troops to support Chen Liu, sitting in the main seat of the Chinese army, Huangfu Song, who was still wearing a bandage on his chest at this time, looked at Sun Jian and said, "Wentai is not in a hurry, Chen Liu must be saved, and the Changshe must also be protected!" How to deal with it also needs to listen to the opinions of Gongwei and Meng De! (Zhu Junzi Gongwei)

Although Huangfu Song's body was not well wounded, he was really confident when he spoke at this time, and he was not angry and arrogant.

"General Huangfu is right, at this time, Zhang Liang and Bocai's army is outside the city, and it may not be the time to divide troops to rescue Chen Liu" The person who spoke was Zhu Jun.

Although Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song are both Zhonglang generals, because Huang Fu Song is a few years older than Zhu Jun, Zhu Jun respects Huang Fu Song very much on weekdays.

Seeing that the two coaches said so, Sun Jian hurriedly answered and returned to his seat.

"Having said that, but we are also thieves and rebels, and we have no reason not to save them when we die, and we have made great contributions to the county order where Chen Liu's garrison was stationed!" Huangfu Song said and patted the wooden box on the table. This box contains Zhang Bao's head.

It is said that the team of soldiers who came to Huang Fu Song to send Zhang Bao's head to Huang Fu Song on Liu Yi's order, after arriving at the Changshe, did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly handed over the head and Lu Zhi's letter to Huang Fu Song and others, and everyone was waiting for Huang Fu Song and others outside the palace at this time.

"What the old general said is reasonable, but when will he be saved? How to save? The old general still needs to think carefully! "The person who spoke was none other than Cao Cao, the cavalry captain who had been sent by the imperial court to rescue the Changshe before.

Hearing this, the emperor on the main seat nodded, and said, "I have invited you here to discuss this matter!" If you have any suggestions, just speak freely! ”

After Huangfu Song finished speaking, everyone in the hall began to talk in whispers.

After everyone discussed for a while, Cao Cao stood up and said, "Old general, I heard that Chen Liutai guarded Zhang Miao and Lord Zhang said that Chen Liucheng is different from the rest of the cities, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as it is properly arranged, with more than 20,000 people, it can withstand Zhang Jiao's 50,000 army for a few months. ”

When Huangfu Song heard this, his tiger eyes widened slightly and looked at Zhang Miao, who was sitting next to Cao Cao.

"Is it really as Meng De said?"

Seeing this, Zhang Miao hurriedly stood up and answered, and then respectfully told everyone about Chen Liucheng's situation.

After listening to Zhang Miao's introduction, Huangfu Song's brows were slightly relaxed.

"Go and call those people outside the door, I have something to ask"

Hearing this, the soldier who guarded the door hurriedly ran out and brought up the chief under Liu Yi.

"The villain has seen the generals!" Nashi knelt down at the foot of the hall and made a big salute to Huangfu Song.

Huangfu Song looked at Nashi Chang and asked, "Let me ask you, how many soldiers do you have under your lordship?" ”

The chief hurriedly replied respectfully, "Lord Hui, less than 30,000!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone sitting on the side couldn't help but discuss.

"How can there be so many people?"

Seeing everyone discussing, the chief didn't dare to talk, so he could only kneel on the ground and wait for Huangfu Song's orders.

Hearing this person say that Liu Yi had nearly 30,000 people under his command, a trace of surprise also flashed across Huangfu Song's face.

"Your family is only a county official, and there are so many soldiers under him, aren't you afraid that someone will frame you for such an arrogant behavior?"

Behind Zhu Jun's seemingly concerning, it is actually full of blame.

At that time, before the time when the princes were divided, except for Gongsun Zhan, who was entrusted by the imperial court to resist the Hu people, few county-level officials could have more than 10,000 troops, even if Gongsun Zhan, the imperial court had a clear rule that the number of soldiers under his command should not exceed 50,000, and Liu Yi, a small county official, dared to privately gather a team of 30,000 people, how could this not surprise the people present.

Seeing that everyone had the intention of questioning, Nashi Chang hurriedly explained, "Back to the generals, my lord originally only had a few thousand people under his command, and these thousands of people were temporarily summoned under the permission of Lord Liu Yu of the assassination of the imperial court, and the remaining more than 20,000 people were all surrendered to the Yellow Turban army captured by Lord Lu in Zhongqiu before!" ”

Of course, the person who can be entrusted with the important task of delivering the letter by Liu Yi will not be a general, and the answer can be said to be seamless and ingenious.

Zhu Jun and the others softened a little when they heard this. Huangfu Song on the main seat was also a little relieved at this time.

"Your lord has such a heart, which is really a blessing for the court and the people! Go back and tell your family, let him keep Chen for two months, and when I break Zhang Liang, Zhang Jiao will be self-defeating! At that time, the danger of Chen Liu's will be solved! ”

Hearing this, the chief hurriedly saluted Huangfu Song again.

"The villain must inform my lord of the general's words!"

"Let's go down"

"Yes!" After saying that, the chief respectfully withdrew from the room where everyone was meeting.

As soon as he walked outside the mansion, Nashi Chang took a deep breath, his whole person was a little soft, and he hurriedly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his hand.

"How? What did General Huangfu say? The rest of the people hurried up when they saw that he had grown out.

Seeing this, the chief looked back at the government behind him, and said "Say it on the road" with palpitations, and then hurriedly led everyone to the small gate that had been temporarily dug in the city for communication.

(I came back a little late from overtime today, and I hope you forgive me for a chapter of water!) OS: Anyway, what I wrote before is not bad, it makes no difference whether the water is water or not! No one can tell! Haha)
