readx;?“ Did Pound catch up? Xiahou Yuan wiped the blood from his face and asked Xiahou Shan, who was protecting him. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Xiahou Shan glanced sideways, only to see that the Xiliang army stayed in place and did not catch up, so he let go of his hanging heart, "General, they didn't catch up, it seems that the army has withdrawn." ”
Xiahou Yuan nodded, stopped to gather the troops, and after counting the number of people, the original 1,000 people plummeted to 500. The wind blows the leaves and the sky is starless and gloomy. Xiahou Yuan led the remaining 500 people to continue to march in the direction of Xuchang, just when Ma Chao thought that Xiahou Yuan was going back to Xuchang to move the rescue troops, Xiahou Yuan suddenly changed direction in Caoyang and went north to enter Bingzhou.
At this time, on the official road from Chang'an to Xianyang, a caravan was moving slowly. The banner of the caravan is the banner of the Yin family, which is the goods that Yin Ke borrowed from Zhao Kuan. A Xiliang army, led by a white-robed and silver-armored general, quietly surrounded the caravan. Ma Chao received a secret report from Yin Ke that Zhong Xuan had infiltrated his caravan with 3,000 soldiers in makeup, preparing to attack Xianyang again.
"Big brother, could the news be fake?" Ma Dai followed behind Ma Chao and said in a low voice, with a vague sense of foreboding in his heart.
Ma Chao, who was in white robe and silver armor, was expressionless, and did not speak, but raised his hand and pointed at a few people in the caravan, "You see that they are tall and tall, and they are a little more murderous than ordinary people, which can only be honed by being in the ranks all year round." ”
Following Ma Chao's fingers, Ma Dai looked at a few people in the caravan, not knowing what to say, so he could only follow Ma Chao quietly.
In fact, based on this alone, it is impossible to determine that Cao Jun is mixed in the caravan. Ma Chao was so sure that the caravan was evidence that Cao Jun pretended to attack the granary Xianyang again, but the carriage of the caravan to transport goods. This time, the goods sold by Yin Ke were linen, but the carriage was loaded with wooden boxes, and the square wooden boxes looked like they could hold two people, and the extremely deep ruts on the road were enough to show that the carriage was not loaded with linen, but people.
The Xiliang coalition army also chose to attack the city at this time, woo woo, and a low horn sounded. The Xiliang armies that had already been prepared marched towards Xiliang City in order. Cao Cao sat on the main seat, listening to the sound of the horn outside the city, his face solemn. Xu Chu, who was standing in the distance, held his sword in one hand and stood straight.
When the vanguard of the Xiliang Coalition Army entered the range of the bow and arrow attack of the defenders of Chang'an, the straw men on the city wall fell one after another, and countless feathered arrows roared. The vanguard is Fei Ke's Qiang soldiers, where did the soldiers of the Burning He Qiang Department think of the Cao army who had already been poisoned, there was still room for resistance, and the soldiers of the Burning He Qiang tribe who did not have any precautions fell off their horses one after another.
Han Sui glanced at Yan Xing behind him and nodded with satisfaction. At the beginning, it was Yan Xing who tried his best to prevent Han Sui from putting his soldiers in the front position, but now it seems that Yan Xing's worries are not wrong. And at the beginning, it was like picking up a cheap Fike, and his face was very ugly at this time.
"I said, what kind of numb tendon powder do you guys do, does it work?" Fico tried his best to restrain himself, but his tone was full of dissatisfaction.
Song He touched his bald head, and he saw the scene under Chang'an City clearly, "What is the effect of numb tendons, I have seen it with my own eyes back then, and I can't be wrong." ”
"Where's your magic stick?" Fico asked disdainfully.
"Please keep your mouth clean, that's our national teacher in Caohan." Song He squinted slightly. A hint of green flashed across his face.
Fei Ke rolled his eyes and spat fiercely at Song He. Song He rushed up very fiercely, grabbing Fei Ke's collar, "I think you are looking for death." ”
"If you have the ability, come here." Fei Ke tightly grasped Song He's hands with both hands, and the two secretly competed, and they were even up and down. Originally, the composition of the Xiliang coalition army was very complicated, they all came together for the common interest, each with a ghost, and there was a lot of friction in peacetime. To a certain extent, the Xiliang Coalition Army is very fragile, and if this can be used well, the Xiliang Coalition Army will be self-defeating.
"Okay, the two of you sit down first, for the sake of the old man's thin face, don't hurt the peace." Han Sui spoke out at the right time, not only letting the two families wedge each other, but also being a good person, showing his identity as the leader of the alliance.
Fei Ke and Song He glanced at Han Sui, each snorted and let go of his hand, and sat back in his seat. At this moment, countless stones flew out of the city and smashed into the ranks of the coalition army, causing panic among the soldiers. This is Liu Ye's improved thunderbolt car, which throws stones outside the city in the city. The thunderbolt is the catapult we are familiar with, the accuracy is not very high, mainly for deterrence, but the Xiliang army has a large number of soldiers, and the soldiers are relatively concentrated, so the casualties are very large. Fico slammed the table, "Order, retreat." ”
"Wait!" Yan walked forward and stopped Fei Ke, his tone was unquestionable, "Withdrawing troops at this time will disrupt the entire offensive order and disrupt the army formation. ”
"I can't watch my people die." Fei Ke was already hot-tempered, and he had the aura of King Qiang, so naturally no one paid attention to him, "Watching my people become stepping stones for others." Everyone present knew very well in their hearts how Fei Ke could pity the lives of the people below, but he was unwilling to use the lives of his own people to make wedding dresses for others.
Han Sui waved his hand and said, "Don't make any noise, Yan Ming sent an order to all the troops to disrupt the original offensive order, spread them all out, and attack Chang'an." ”
"Lord, isn't this okay?" Listening to Han Sui's words, Yan Xing clenched his fists and said.
Han Sui shook his head, "Although I don't know how Cao Jun in the city detoxifies, it seems that the situation is not very optimistic. ”
"Whoa!" Yan Xing also knew that this was the best way now, so he hurriedly went down to give the order.
Seeing that Han Sui had made such a decision, Fei Ke sat back angrily.
Soon all the Western Liang coalition forces dispersed, and the role of the thunderbolt was greatly weakened. When the Western Liang coalition approached Chang'an, the archers also launched a counterattack. On the city wall, Xu Huang's palms were soaked with sweat, he had never commanded such a large-scale battle.
"General Xu, the prime minister ordered you to block the attack of the Xiliang army no matter what." The tiger guards beside Cao Cao hurriedly came to Xu Huang's side and conveyed Cao Cao's orders.
Xu Huang nodded, and shouted at the tiger guard, "Back to the prime minister, Xu Huang and Chang'an City live and die together, the city is in the people, and the city is dead." ”
After the tiger guard left, Xu Huang ordered that all departments strictly guard the city, and those who dare to retreat will be killed.
As the horn sounded, the Xiliang coalition army began to attack Chang'an City. Seeing a piece of black pressure under the city, Xu Huang waved his hand, and the butter that had been boiling was dumped, and the Xiliang soldiers who had experienced the first battle of Chang'an retreated one after another, they knew how powerful this butter was.
