Chapter 516: Bamboo slips flying into the city
Another day later, Zhang Fei led the army, and under the farewell of the people of Baima, he left Baima and marched towards the next stop, Shouyang.
Just the day before the army left, the people took out their own meals to reward the army, but they were politely rejected by Chen Deng one by one, even if they were accepted, Chen Deng will record them one by one, and when the war is over, they will definitely be returned one by one!
"Lao Huang, it's so good, Lord Zhao has finally come to save us!" After Zhang Fei's army left, one of the people in the farewell team said.
"Yes, Linzi, you are still young, unlike me, half of your body has already been buried in the ground, and basically there are no days of good life to enjoy!" Lao Huang sighed, "That hateful Yuan Shao, my poor child! ”
"Hey!" At the mention of the sons of the old Huang family, this Lin Zi sighed and remained silent.
Such conversations can be seen everywhere in White Horse City, they are deeply oppressed by Yuan Shao, and they have secretly circulated many issues of "Liaodong Daily", which can be said to be extremely yearning for Liaodong, so it is not surprising that the Liaodong army is welcomed in this way.
Not to mention how the people in the city were, and said that Zhang Fei led the army to a place twenty miles away from Shouyang City, and received information from Jinyiwei.
In Shouyang City, the guards are two brothers, Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang, who govern the army strictly, although they belong to the third-rate generals in terms of strength, but they are particularly attentive to the tasks given to them by Yuan Shao.
Their strength is not as good as that of Yan Wen and Zhang Gao's four generals, so they can only attract Yuan Shao's attention on the seriousness of doing things, and they have a twelve-point spirit in defending the city, not only that, but they also require their soldiers to cheer up day and night, although Shouyang is not a frontier, but they must also defend with all their might!
There are only 20,000 defenders in Shouyang, and these 20,000 people are still the effect of the previous increase in troops, otherwise there are only 10,000 people! First, because Shouyang is not a frontier, there is no need to send so many people to garrison; Second, Shouyang City is a small city, and it is a waste to send heavy troops to garrison it.
However, the two brothers were not worried at all, they confidently believed that the Liaodong Army would definitely not be able to capture the Shouyang City they were guarding!
There are three reasons, one is that Shouyang is located inland, and there is a white horse in front of it, even if it can break through the defense line of the white horse, the strength of the enemy who comes to Shouyang City will be reduced by a large block; The second is because they are very confident in their way of governing the army and defending the city, and they believe that the five of them can break through their defenses; The third is because Zhao Feng must have placed the main force in Jizhou to confront Yuan Shao, even if he came to attack Bingzhou, there must be very few soldiers and horses sent, so why should they worry?
But they are wrong about these three points, completely wrong, it seems that being too confident is not a good thing!
Since he couldn't sneak attack, Zhang Fei simply led the troops to the city.
When the two brothers saw so many Liaodong troops, they were surprised and scared at the moment.
"Wouldn't Liaodong send so many soldiers and horses to merge the state? How is this so many people? Lu Kuang's voice trembled a little.
"I don't know, it seems that I can only hold on!" Compared to Lu Kuang, Lu Xiang's voice was not much better. Obviously, both brothers were very scared.
"Humph! Attack the city tomorrow, and set up camp today! Zhang Fei glanced at Chengchi and immediately ordered.
At present, the Liaodong Army is encamped.
"Sir, are the books shorthanded?" In the evening, Zhang Fei asked Chen Deng.
"Just ready!" Chen Deng nodded, "It's 50,000 copies, it's enough!" ”
"Okay, then, the city will be broken tomorrow!" Zhang Fei nodded.
Chen Deng smiled slightly, before he returned to Liaodong, he was quite unremitting towards the generals, thinking that the generals would only fight and shout, and they were completely animals who couldn't think.
However, after Chen Deng came into contact with Zhao Feng, his understanding of military generals was refreshed again and again, until he invested in Liaodong and came into contact with this cadre of Liaodong, he had to deny his thoughts from the bottom of his heart!
Just like Zhang Fei in front of him, who looks like a stupid big man, his mind is quite delicate, and Chen Deng has also seen Zhang Fei paint "Lady Picture" with his own eyes! Where does this look like a military general's style?
Early the next morning, after the Liaodong army had a full meal, they came to the city again and prepared to attack the city.
This time, however, the artillerymen propped up the catapult as if it was about to launch something.
Seeing this, the Lu brothers were puzzled, but they made up their minds in their hearts - to defend Shouyang and not disappoint Yuan Shao!
"Prepare for the harvest, as long as the catapult throws stones, everyone hides in the corner, and when they don't throw stones, they come out to defend the city, they can't help us!" Lu Kuang ordered.
"Yes!" It will be a soldier's courage, this sentence is not bad at all, seeing that the Lu brothers are so fearless, the soldiers defending the city simply put aside the fear in their hearts, and plan to defend Shouyang City with one mind!
"Hehe, interesting!" The corners of Zhang Fei's mouth were raised slightly, and instead of a smile, a sneer was on his face, "Launch!" ”
With Zhang Fei's order, the catapult began to launch!
"Prepare to defend!" Lu Kuang ordered at the same time.
But something that puzzled him happened, the catapult fired not a stone bullet, that mass of unknown things, after flying into the air, it immediately dispersed, like fragments of something, scattered all over Shouyang City!
"What is this?" Naturally, there is this thing in the city, Lu Kuang was puzzled by picking up something similar to bamboo slips on the ground, and he was still sneering in his heart, "What's the use of this thing?" You can't beat anyone! ”
However, after reading the contents of the bamboo slips, Lu Kuang was shocked and immediately shouted, "Quick, go to the city to collect the bamboo slips!" The people must not be allowed to see the contents of the bamboo slips!! ”
"What?" Lu Xiang was puzzled, how could his brother be so panicked? So he also picked up a piece of bamboo slip and looked at the contents on it!
Now, he finally understood why his brother was so excited! Without saying a word, Lu Xiang hurriedly led his troops down to the city and went to the city to collect the bamboo slips!
"Huh? What is it? Many people in the city picked up bamboo slips that fell from the sky, "What? Outside the city is the Liaodong army! ”
"Big guy! Hurry up and help the Liaodong Army! Open the city gate and welcome the Liaodong army into the city! ”
"Yes, yes, yes! Welcome the Liaodong Army in! ”
……
The bamboo slips depict Yuan Shao's evil deeds and the Liaodong army, which was outside the city, begging the people to unite and open the city gates.
Soon, the news spread all over the streets and alleys of Shouyang City! The people flocked to the gate of the city, wanting to help the Liaodong army!
Friends who want to explode more, leave a word after reading this chapter, let Yanyu know, Yanyu will arrange a blast in the middle of the month, more and less look at the enthusiasm of the friends! (Bad laugh...... )
Today's fourth watch, good night!
