Chapter 60 The Siege of Huai County
"General Zhou Cang, what are you ......" Wei Yan looked at the vast crowd of people behind Zhou Cang and asked suspiciously. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"The two generals came just in time!" Speaking of this, Zhou Cang's face couldn't help but feel bitter, and he spat bitterness at Gao Shun and Wei Yan: "The lord gave me a thousand cavalry and asked me to go to Jingzhao with the people of Hanoi, but you also know that these eighteen counties in Hanoi are not like Nanyang at that time, with Zhang Xiu's help, only relying on these thousand people, when will it be finished." ”
"Where's the lord?" Gao Shun and Wei Yan glanced at each other, it seemed that there were less than two thousand cavalry around Lu Bu, and Zhou Cang brought it before, that is to say, there were less than a thousand people around Lu Bu.
"Under siege of Huai County." Zhou Cang said.
"Huaixian? Hanoi County? Less than a thousand? Wei Yan's eyes widened in astonishment, and he looked at Zhou Cang incredulously, although he had heard that Lu Bu had taken five hundred iron horsemen to fight for thousands of miles, and had also conquered cities and territories along the way, but Huai County was also a county office, with less than a thousand troops, how could he be trapped?
"Yes, separate the ranks and block the four gates, and no civilians or soldiers are allowed to enter or leave." Zhou Cang nodded, as a matter of course.
Didn't you ask about this?
Wei Yan's face was black.
Gao Shun nodded and said: "Before, the lord's five hundred horses broke through the city, and this method was also used, the soldiers and horses in Hanoi have been emptied by Zhong Xuan, and the garrison of Huai County is empty, and it is not difficult to seal the city." ”
"By the way, who is this man?" Zhou Cang pointed to Zhong Xuan, who was tied up on the ground and was still in a coma, and asked suspiciously.
"General Zhou Cang, this time, you have established a great achievement." Wei Yan glanced at Zhong Xuan with some depression, he should have been his prisoner, who knew that he met Gao Shun halfway, but in the end, he was captured by Zhou Cang, who had nothing to do with this matter, and he could only laugh and say at this moment: "This person is Zhong Xuan." ”
"That's the bastard! Watch me slaughter him! When Zhou Cang heard this, his eyes widened, and he was about to raise his knife to give Zhong Xuan the result, but fortunately he was stopped by Wei Yan.
"General Zhou Cang, this person can't be killed for the time being, let's wait for the matter of Hanoi to be over, and wait for the lord to fall." Wei Yan smiled bitterly.
Gao Shun looked at the sky and said: "It's not early, since the Cao army has been broken, it is not good for the general to continue to stay here, Chen Xing." ”
"The last general!" Chen Xing took a step forward and said loudly.
"I'll take my guards back to Huaili, and you take the others to stay behind to assist General Zhou Cang."
"The last general commands."
"Farewell." After Gao Shun nodded to Wei Yan and Zhou Cang, he went straight across the north shore and headed towards Huaili with his personal guards.
"He Man, you bring someone to stay behind to assist General Zhou Cang, this Zhong Xuan, General Ben will take it back first and send it to Chang'an." Glancing at the direction Gao Shun left, Wei Yan also said goodbye to Zhou Cang.
"General rest assured."
With the addition of Chen Xing and He Man, Zhou Cang was overjoyed, Chen Xing is Lu Bu's favorite general, the strategy and the art of war are not a problem, and he can also judge things, He Man is a genuine yellow turban, this kind of thing to coerce the people, do more than anyone else, after the three of them discussed, they acted separately, Zhou Cang continued to take this group of people to build a pontoon bridge to cross the river, Chen Xing and He Man divided their troops to other cities to continue to coerce the people, and at the same time sent someone to inform Chang'an, so that Chang'an can make plans as soon as possible, after all, although Hanoi is not as densely populated as Nanyang, But it is also a rich land, and after calculation, there are more than 300,000 people, and the city drawn by the people of Nanyang before is somewhat insufficient.
At the same time, Huaixian, Taishoufu, Miao Shang was already anxious at the moment, walking back and forth in the hall irritably, in the hall, Li You sat in his seat with an indifferent expression, and occasionally raised his eyes to look at Miao Shang's gaze, with a bit of mockery, in addition to him, there were many Hanoi officials and people from the Hanoi family in the hall, all of whom were silent in their seats at the moment.
"What exactly does Lu Bu want to do!?" Finally, Fang Ming, the patriarch of the Fang family of the Hanoi Wang clan, couldn't bear the dullness, and looked at Miao Shang and said, "Envoy, you said before that you would fake Lu Bu and introduce him into the city to shoot him, what is the matter now?" ”
Miao Shang smiled bitterly when he heard this: "I don't know about this, that Lu Bu is extremely arrogant, the people we sent out, before they got out of the city gate, they were shot by the cavalry who came and went outside the city like the wind, Lu Bu didn't want to negotiate with us at all, today I have opened the city gate, but Lu Bu seems to have not seen it, only wandering outside the city." ”
"My lord, the last general is willing to lead the troops to the battle, and he will behead Na Lu Bu under the horse!" Yang Ding, the Hanoi guard, stood up and said loudly: "The last general has been watching the city for the past two days, and found that there are not many people under Lu Bu's command. ”
Li You raised his head, glanced at Yang Ding, and shook his head imperceptibly, the others were also silent, no one responded to Yang Ding's words, and there were not more wars than people, two or three thousand temporary cobbled together rabble, plus a stunned general, ran out to fight Lu Bu, sick, right?
Miao Shang glanced at Yang Ding, forcibly suppressed the irritability in his heart and comforted: "General Yang's courage is commendable, but ...... This matter is still a long-term consideration. ”
"My lord......" Yang Ding was about to say something, but he had already been interrupted by the head of the Fang family.
"My lord, there are still some things at home, so I quit." After speaking, the head of the Fang family left with his two guards without looking back.
"Master Miao, I'll take my leave first, if there is something useful, just ask." With Fang Ming taking the lead, several other patriarchs and family heads also got up and said goodbye, after all, what is the use of continuing to stay here, that is, a group of people in a daze together?
Seeing a group of people disperse one after another, leaving only a few officials from the Taishou Mansion, Miao Shang looked at Li You bitterly: "Sir, what should I do for today's plan?" ”
Li You sighed lightly: "For today's plan, I can only wait." ”
"Wait?" Miao Shang looked at Li You incredulously.
"How about waiting? Lu Bu didn't accept the call, did the adults have the ability to drive Lu Bu away? Li You looked at Miao Shang, and in his eyes, he did not hide his contempt.
Miao Shang only felt that his chest was blocked, he had to have this ability, and he didn't have to think about assassinating Lu Bu by deceit.
"But, when?" Miao Shang said astringently.
"Wait until the battle of Jingzhao has a result, and wait until Lu Bu achieves his goal." Li You stood up, shook his head and walked outside: "Lu Bu will not come to Hanoi to besiege Huai County for no reason, look at its posture, it is not to ask for a city, this move must have a deep meaning, we can't defeat Lu Bu, and we can't communicate with him, so we can only close the city for now, and wait for Lu Bu to achieve his goal and leave, and then make plans." ”
"Is it possible, just waiting for death here?" Miao Shang finally couldn't help it and roared at Li You's back.
Li You turned his head, glanced at Miao Shang, turned around and left, and his voice came from afar: "Your Excellency can also be like General Yang, gather the soldiers and horses in the city, go out of the city to seek a decisive battle with Lu Bu, if you are lucky, take advantage of his unpreparedness, and maybe you can drive Lu Bu away." ”
