Chapter 511: Siege

At the end of February, on the fifth day of the Taiping Conference, when the people of Donglai were still arguing over the scam of Tianping Dao, Qingzhou Mu Zhang Liao's soldiers and horses suddenly attacked, and with the help of local officials and people, they once again swept the entire territory of Donglai and even the big and small thieves of Beihai State!

This is a joint attack, the soldiers and horses of the Beihai Xiang Kong Rong were also dispatched, Bao Xin, Liu Bei and the soldiers and horses sent by Kong Rong totaled 15,000 people, and in three days, tens of thousands of thieves were captured, and the thieves of Donglai County and Beihai suffered heavy losses, and many small groups of thieves were directly taken to a nest. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

However, there are also big thieves such as Li Tiao, Congqian, Wang Ying, and many small thieves who have heard the wind and left, or hid in the mountains, or retreated to the island, and it was difficult to find them for a while.

On the fifth day of the first month of March, Zhang Liao held a meeting of thieves in Guangping County, in which tens of thousands of people in Donglai and Beihai participated.

On that day, the heads of the thieves were piled up, which made the thieves in Donglai and Beihai who were lucky enough to escape hate and fear.

Donglai and Beihai were peaceful for a while, and the thieves were nowhere to be found, showing unprecedented stability for more than ten years, and Zhang Liao quickly integrated into Qingzhou with this thunderous means, and won the support of officials and the people.

At the same time, Zhang Liao announced the decree of the household and tuntian, which shook the county.

On the eighth day of the first month of March, another news spread all over Donglai, and the soldiers and horses of Jibei Xiang Bao Xin, Pingyuan Xiang Liu Bei, and Beihai Xiang Kong Rong returned to their own counties to assist Qingzhou Mu in the battle, and only 800 soldiers and horses of Qingzhou Mu were stationed in Guangping County, which was alone, and Qingzhou Mu was in full swing to recruit troops and expand its strength.

On the tenth day of the first month of March, the thieves Zhang Rao, Li Tiao, Congqian, and Wang Ying gathered a total of 20,000 thieves from all over the country, attacked Changguang County violently, besieged Guan Shiwu, and vowed to kill Qingzhou Mu.

Donglai was shocked!

Countless officials and ordinary people are secretly speculating and regretting, is this powerful Qingzhou pastor short-lived?

20,000 thieves attacked Guan's dock, and the momentum came, thinking that they could easily break through Guan's dock and kill Qingzhou Mu, but the truth was beyond their expectations.

Many of them had been to Guan's Dock before, but now they found that the moat outside Guan's Dock had been nearly doubled and deepened, and it was full of thorns and bamboo thorns, and even the opposite side wall was also full of bamboo thorns, and the sandbags they brought to fill the pit were not enough.

However, there were a few rough siege ladders, and they were shot by the crossbow arrows of the city to kill the ladder soldiers, and then the soldiers who rushed out of the dock gate overturned, and as a result, even a few siege ladders were lost.

In desperation, the thieves could only dig on the spot and fill the pit with sandbags, and they tried to dig directly by the moat, but the soldiers who dug the soil came and died.

On the tower of Guan's Wu City, Zhang Liao stood on the tower and looked at the more than 20,000 thieves below, almost filling the plain. On the city walls, his eight hundred guards were all over.

This siege of thieves was expected by him a long time ago, and it was also designed by him, so he mobilized the people to dig and widen the moat three days ago, and plugged the north gate, leaving only the south gate for defense.

In addition to the 800 guards, there are more than 3,000 young people in the dock, and the city walls are full of stones, fire oil, and pots for burning fire, except for bows and crossbows, but unfortunately they are not needed for the time being, because those thieves can't even rush the moat for a while.

Zhang Liao looked at the thieves who were digging in the soil, smiled, and said to Shi Ah beside him: "Ah Heng, go get that qin." ”

Shi A looked strange, and after a while, Shi A held a table, followed by Diao Chan in men's clothes, holding a piano, and went to the city to put a few on the shelf, put the piano on the shelf, and two handmaidens with pale faces served tea.

Zhang Liao sat down with a golden knife and plucked the strings twice, and the guards in the city couldn't help but widen their eyes, they didn't know that their lord could play the piano?!

Bite! Boom! With the melodious sound of the piano sounding, even the guards who had never heard much of the piano knew that the lord's piano skills were not bad. They couldn't help but have a thought in their hearts, what else would they not do as a lord?

Civilian-born warriors always have a sense of admiration for those literati who can play the piano, calligraphy and painting, not to mention that Zhang Liao's force is far above them, which is enough to make them even more respectful.

What they don't know is that Zhang Liao has always prided himself on being a diligent and enterprising young man, and he wants to learn a little bit of everything, which is the basic quality he thinks is the master, not seeking refinement, but seeking erudition, knowing everything, so that he will not be easily deceived by his subordinates.

As for the piano skills, she naturally learned from Cai Yan, her piano skills can be said to be the best in the world, Zhang Liao can learn three percent, it is enough to laugh at Ao Rulin.

Zhang Liao was born in a martial arts in Bingzhou, but in his previous life he was born in the liberal arts, and now he wants to change the image of a martial artist as much as possible, and he can't be like Lu Bu, who needs to transform into an all-rounder who can do both civil and military affairs like Zhou Yu or Cao Cao, so he has never stopped reading, and has learned calligraphy, piano skills, and chess skills, plus he is already proficient in mathematics, and plagiarizes some poems from time to time, and now he is really an all-rounder.

Calligraphy, piano skills and the like are pretending to be sharp weapons, Zhang Liao always has such an expectation in his heart, if one day that celebrity despises him as a martial artist, but finds that even the six arts of Confucianism, which they are proud of, are not as good as Zhang Liao, what kind of blow will it be.

However, Zhang Liao was playing the piano in the city at this time, and in addition to a little showy thoughts, he had his own more important intentions, he wanted to provoke these thieves and let them stay here.

When the sound of the piano came down from the fort, several thieves besieging the city couldn't help but be furious, Zhang Liaona was only sparse and sparse with 800 people on the fort, and he dared to despise them so much.

Among the thieves, Zhang Rao is the strongest, when Kong Rong first served as the minister of Beihai, he was high-spirited and wanted to expel the Yellow Turban thieves in the territory, but it was Zhang Rao who gave him a blow to the head, forcing Kong Rong to move the office, and since then he has been hit hard and turned to the defensive against the Yellow Turban.

At this time, seeing Zhang Liao playing the piano leisurely on the gatehouse of the fort, and from time to time there was a sound of talking and laughing, he felt ashamed and scolded: "Zhang Liao's thief deceives people too much, and then send two thousand sons to dig the soil, and today he will fill in this moat and capture Zhang Liao alive!" ”

Li Tiao, the thief on the side, said loudly: "You can let people find some wood and throw it down, and you can also fill the river." ”

The pirates were quite cunning and cautious from Qian, and muttered, "This ...... Will Zhang Liao set up an ambush here? ”

"Won't it?" Wang Ying, who was also a pirate, hesitated: "If that's the case, I'll be careful." ”

Zhang Rao said disapprovingly: "What kind of ambush did he set up with these soldiers and horses?" Kong Rong, the closest minister of the North Sea, knew that a group of rabble under his command was not to be afraid. ”

"I think that this matter should be innocent." At this time, a person next to him suddenly said: "As far as I know, Zhang Liao came to Qingzhou this time, and there were only a thousand soldiers and horses, and it was with Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei who was ready to fight with Kong Rong, that he had such a strong force. ”
