Volume 2 The Battle of the Yellow Turban Chapter 432 Letters from the Enemy Army

ο»Ώ

You Heng said: "This is unlikely, last time there were reinforcements, maybe there were soldiers who fled back, how could Sun Xia not know?" ”

Ling Yan pointed to the letter: "Then ...... this letter?"

You Heng thought for a moment: "In my opinion, there is a deception in this letter. ”

"Fraud?" Ling Yan was a little surprised.

You Heng nodded solemnly: "I think this is Sun Xia's deliberate plan to let us fall for him...... Colonel Zuo may also be complicit! ”

Ling Yan didn't think so: "No...... General Zuo may not know ......"

You Heng snorted: "Brother Xian, don't trust that thief so much, that kind of anti-thief, do anything!" ”

Ling Yan didn't want to argue with You Heng so uselessly anymore, so he snorted.

After You Heng left, Ling Yan felt that something was wrong, so he took the letter and went to Colonel Zuo.

After Colonel Zuo took the letter in Ling Yan's hand, after reading it, he put the letter on the table casually and laughed: "General Yan, what do you think?" ”

Ling Yan hurriedly said: "General Zuo, don't misunderstand me, I definitely don't doubt the general's meaning!" ”

Colonel Zuo nodded: "General Yan, if you can show me this letter, it is enough to prove that the school will not misunderstand." ”

Ling Yan breathed a sigh of relief: "Could this be Sun Xia's plan?" ”

Colonel Zuo said with a smile: "The meaning of the school and the general coincides. ”

Ling Yan smiled, and then his expression became a little puzzled: "I also think that Sun Xia should not know the situation in Juye City...... So, then why did he write this letter? ”

Colonel Zuo snorted coldly: "Just want us to fall into his plan and make us careless, so that he can take the opportunity to attack the city." ”

After all, Ling Yan was not from the Three Kingdoms, and although he had heard a lot of about these schemes, he didn't have a set of ways to break him, so he asked, "General Zuo, what should we do then?" ”

Colonel Zuo smiled: "How can he deceive us with his little skill in carving insects!" The general has nothing to worry about. ”

Ling Yan had an idea: "Then we will plan and reply to him, saying that the general is defending the city and asking him to send troops over to help quickly, how about it?" ”

Colonel Zuo smiled and said, "General Yan, this plan won't work. If Sun Xia knew that the general had broken the city, then such a reply would definitely arouse his suspicions. ”

Ling Yan asked again: "If he already knows everything, then these two letters are written in vain, and no one has been deceived; If he didn't know the situation in Juye Castle, wouldn't he be able to deceive him? ”

Colonel Zuo only thought for a moment, and then said: "General Yan, if Sun Xia really doesn't know the situation here, then we might as well not reply to the letter, so that he will be confused, so that he will be even more hesitant, and we can take the opportunity to attack the city." ”

Ling Yan thought about it for a while, and felt that what Colonel Zuo said was reasonable, so he agreed with his idea.

In the evening, You Heng and Kuai Liang came to see Ling Yan again and persuaded Ling Yan to enter the army as soon as possible.

After a few more days of delay, on this day, Colonel Zuo took the initiative to come to Ling Yan and said that the internal qi in his body had basically fully recovered and he could enter the army.

Ling Yan was very happy to see that Colonel Zuo was in good spirits and had returned to his previous state, so he decided to discuss the matter of entering the army.

Because of Colonel Zuo's "joining", Ling Yan was more confident and asked Colonel Zuo to formulate the main battle plan.

The plan was quickly decided, in fact, this plan is not complicated, that is, Zhang Yi fought the vanguard, after Wen was hired, Yang Feng and Zhang Min escorted the grain and grass, Ling Yan led Zuo Xiao, Lu Gong, and You Heng to attack, Kuai Liang, Zuo Ci and Deng Yi were responsible for defending the city, and protecting Yu Gengen, temporarily staying in Juye City.

Although there was nothing subtle about this plan, because it was what Zuo Xiao thought, Ling Yan was very confident.

The soldiers and horses marched for three days, and on this day, the front scouts came to report: Zhang Yi led the troops to the city of grasshoppers.

Ling Yan didn't give an order immediately, but looked at Colonel Zuo - now, he seemed to have shifted the focus of his decision to Colonel Zuo.

Colonel Zuo regarded himself as the main general, and when he saw Ling Yan looking at him with an inquiring eye, he was not polite, and directly ordered the scout: "Order General Zhang to stand by on the spot, and you must not make your own decisions, let alone attack the city rashly." ”

The scout didn't agree immediately, but looked at Ling Yan with some hesitation.

Ling Yan nodded: "Just do what General Zuo said." ”

"Yes!" The scout replied loudly, mounted his horse and left.

Ling Yan asked Colonel Zuo a little puzzled: "General Zuo, we have been marching in the past few days, but we have not seen a single soldier of Sun Xia, which is ...... There won't be any problems......"

Colonel Zuo said quite confidently: "General rest assured, Sun Xia's troops are only concerned about self-preservation, and it is still difficult, how dare they go out of the city easily?" ”

Ling Yan thought about it, it also made sense.

At noon, Ling Yan's army marched to the vicinity of Grasshopper City and joined Zhang Yi.

Looking at the grasshopper city from afar, I saw that the city was not very high, the city wall looked a little broken, the city head was lined with flags, a row of yellow turban soldiers put their hands on the city head, and the weapons in their hands were dazzling reflections under the scorching sun.

As early as before, Ling Yan had the soldiers and horses to ambush in two ways, and at this time, Ling Yan saw that the city was heavily guarded, so he thought of a way to break the city.

After Colonel Zuo gathered his Yellow Turban soldiers together, he said to Ling Yan, "General Yan, is there a way to break the enemy?" ”

Ling Yan saw that Colonel Zuo had a confident look on his face, and hurriedly asked, "Does General Zuo already have a way?" ”

Colonel Zuo laughed and said, "Haha...... It's this lonely city, how can it stop us! ”

Ling Yan hesitated and said, "That'...... I'll lead all my soldiers and horses to kill them together? ”

Colonel Zuo smiled: "Why should the general do this? It doesn't take that many people, as long as the general and my guards go with me, it's enough to take this city!" ”

Lu Gong and You Heng, who were beside Ling Yan, were dissatisfied when they heard Colonel Zuo's outrageous words.

Lu Gong said angrily: "General Zuo, what do you mean by this? Even if you want to lead the army, it is General Yan who will lead you and others, and what words will go with you! ”

Colonel Zuo looked at Gong Lu with disdain: "Now in such an emergency, General Lu still cares so much about every word!" ”

Lu Gong wanted to say something, but Ling Yan secretly stopped him.

Seeing this, You Heng sneered at Colonel Zuo: "General Zuo is so confident? With just these more than 100 people, can you break through the city? ”

Colonel Zuo snorted, and did not directly answer You Heng's ridicule, but looked at Ling Yan: "General Yan, please go with me to attack the city, the rest of the men and horses don't have to move, if I can't capture the city, let the general deal with it!" ”

You Heng sneered: "If you can't capture the city, then that's it, if General Zuo is on the verge of surrendering to the enemy, wouldn't General Yan be in danger?" ”

Ling Yan hadn't thought about this question before, but now that You Heng reminded him, he really felt that it was a problem, but he didn't quite believe that Zuo Xiao would do that, so he didn't speak, but looked at Zuo Xiao's face to see if he had a ghost in his heart.

Colonel Zuo seemed to be open in his heart, looked at You Heng calmly and abnormally, and said, "If I deliberately deceived General Yan, why wait until now? Why bother! After speaking, he looked at Ling Yan again, "The school deeply feels the favor of the general, and only wants to repay the favor in case of emergency, so that the general can go with me, the school has no dissenting intentions, nor is it boasting, as long as the school leads these more than 100 soldiers and horses, he can take this city!" ”

When Ling Yan saw Colonel Zuo's sincere expression, he no longer doubted it, and turned to You Heng and said, "General You, Sun Qiu was killed by us last time, and the morale of the enemy army was greatly reduced, so it is estimated that Sun Xia has no ability...... General Zuo and I will attack the city first, and you will ambush here first, and if there is an accident, you will wait for the opportunity to kill. ”

You Heng hesitated.

Lu Gong was not at ease, and hurriedly said: "General Yan, I will go with you!" ”

Colonel Zuo sneered: "General Yan can go with me alone, no matter how much you go, it's useless." ”

Gong Lu wanted to talk back, but Ling Yan hurriedly stopped him: "General Lu, you can ambush here." ”

Seeing that Ling Yan had given an order, although Lu Gong was unwilling, he didn't insist on anything.

Colonel Zuo said to Ling Yan again: "General Yan, it is taboo to hesitate in battle. Please also ask the general to make a decision quickly. ”

Ling Yan nodded at Colonel Zuo, and after instructing You Heng and the others, he went to Grasshopper City with Colonel Zuo and the nearly 100 Yellow Turban soldiers.

Twenty minutes later, Ling Yan and Colonel Zuo came to the city of Grasshopper, and the soldiers defending the city had already seen Ling Yan and the others, so when Ling Yan and the others came to the city, a general of the Yellow Turban Army had already come to the city, looking at Ling Yan and the others.

Colonel Zuo waved his long sharp knife and shouted at the man at the head of the city: "The 'Western God General' is here!" Don't open the gates yet! ”

The man in the city looked obviously stunned, his body bent slightly, and his head poked down, as if to carefully identify whether the person in the city was Zuo Colonel or not.

"Humph!" Colonel Zuo was furious, "Don't open the city gate yet, what are you waiting for!" ”

As if he had been electrocuted, the man in the city quickly stood up straight and replied to Colonel Zuo under the city, "Zuo...... General Zuo, you have betrayed the enemy...... But, do you still want to earn this city......"

Ling Yan heard the man's voice trembling with a hint of fear, he felt very ridiculous, and his mood became more relaxed, just waiting for Colonel Zuo to scold back.

Colonel Zuo laughed a few times, and then shouted: "Even I have already voted for General Yan, what are you waiting for!" Either go out of the city and surrender, or I'll go in and kill all you traitors!" ”

The man in the city was stunned again, his lips pursed, but he did not make any sound. The expression on his face could be seen that although Colonel Zuo had already surrendered to the enemy, he was still very jealous of Colonel Zuo's status and strength in the Yellow Turban Army.

Ling Yan didn't feel a little strange, he initially thought that this person in the city was Sun Xia, but looking at this person's words and deeds now, he couldn't see the temperament of being a master general-how could he say that Colonel Zuo also killed his younger brother, how could he be so cowardly?

Ling Yan just wanted to ask Colonel Zuo, but at this time, he saw the city gate slowly open.

At the same time as the city gate opened, a military general flew out of the city gate, this general was tall, wearing silver armor, and under his crotch was also a silver armored mount, holding an iron ring and a long hammer, and the momentum was compelling.

Originally, Ling Yan was still in a very relaxed mood, but when he suddenly saw such a general rushing out of the door, he suddenly became nervous and casually pulled out the Moon Slashing Knife.

"Haha......" Colonel Zuo waved his knife and pointed at the enemy general in front of Pegasus, "Sun Xia, I thought you were hiding in the city and didn't dare to come out!" ”

Only then did Ling Yan know that the person in front of him was Sun Xia, and he couldn't help but take a closer look: this Sun Xia was not only tall and big, but also vicious-looking, with a sideways face.

Sun Xia spun the long hammer in the air for half a circleβ€”the long hammer looked like it was thirty or fifty pounds, but it turned so easily in Sun Xia's handβ€”and then pointed at Colonel Zuo with one hand and scolded angrily: "Phew! You shameless traitor! Dare to betray the Yellow Turban Army! But he colluded with the rebels and killed my brother! This enmity is not shared! I will kill you today to avenge my brother and eradicate the rebels for the heavenly army!" ”

Colonel Zuo snorted coldly: "Sun Xia, it's your martial arts, how can you be my enemy?" If you don't get off the horse and surrender, you won't die! ”

This kind of thing should have been said by Ling Yan, because it was Ling Yan's decision to kill the enemy general or not, but now Colonel Zuo seems to regard himself as the commander of the army, but Ling Yan did not raise any objections, after all, Colonel Zuo's "policy" is also consistent with what he thinks.

Sun Xia was even more furious: "Don't talk nonsense!" Although you are a 'Western God General', it is an old thing, and now that you have defected to the enemy, you have no feelings! If I don't kill you today, how can I calm the anger in my heart! But what do you mention to be surrendered! What a joke! After speaking, his big hand waved back vigorously, and the three rows of infantry behind him immediately ran a few steps, came to Sun Xia and stood still, and surrounded Sun Xia again.

Ling Yan looked at this situation and secretly felt funnyβ€”I don't know what Sun Xia thought in his heart, but with this kind of formation, anyone who looked at it would feel that he was very afraid of Colonel Zuo.

Colonel Zuo sneered a few times, waved his hand, and the dozens of Yellow Turban soldiers behind him also took a few steps forward, lined up, and then, one of their arms stretched out in unison, facing Sun Xia's soldiers and horses.

Sun Xia must have known about Colonel Zuo's situation, so after Colonel Zuo's soldiers made such a move, he was stunned for a moment, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but then he laughed wildly: "Haha...... Colonel Zuo, don't you know about me! I already knew that most of your internal qi was depleted, so you don't have to pretend anymore! If it was in the past, I would have been jealous of you, but today you are lacking in internal energy, how can I be afraid of you again! Ha ha! ”

Colonel Zuo snorted quietly.

"Hah...... This bunch of rubbish under your command may be useful to ordinary soldiers and horses, but in my eyes, they are not enough! Ha ha...... I will slay you traitors one by one, today!" After speaking, Sun Xia raised the long hammer and swung it vigorously on his head.

The meaning of Sun Xia's action could not be more obvious: it was to order the whole army to charge.

Ling Yan naturally saw this meaning, and he secretly rejoiced in his heart: Sun Xia didn't know that the internal qi in Zuo Xiao's body had all recovered, and he didn't know that his own internal qi was actually very strong, so how could he be undefeated if he was so careless?

Ling Yan thought that the time for a quick victory had come, and was about to swing his sword to kill, but was disrupted by a gesture from Colonel Zuo.

Colonel Zuo shouted: "Slow! At the same time, one hand was raised in the air and a "stop" gesture was made.

Originally, it was useless to reach out to stop the enemy's soldiers and horses, but maybe Colonel Zuo was once a senior general of the Yellow Turban, and those Yellow Turban soldiers were also nine points afraid of Colonel Zuo, so although Colonel Zuo was no longer a general of the Yellow Turban, those Yellow Turban soldiers still habitually stopped after Colonel Zuo stretched out his hand, and looked stunned.

Ling Yan was taken aback, he didn't understand why Colonel Zuo wanted to stop the enemy army in such a good situation.

Sun Xia naturally didn't understand, he stared at Colonel Zuo coldly: "What else do you have to do!" ”

Colonel Zuo said coldly: "Sun Xia, it's like this, but I can't see the strength of you and me, it's better for the two of us to fight alone and fight the winner, how about it?" ”

When Ling Yan heard Colonel Zuo's words, he thought about it for a while, and also felt that what Colonel Zuo said was reasonable: "Capture the thief and capture the king first", and it can indeed save a lot of trouble if you can directly kill Sun Xia.

Sun Xia laughed angrily: "Okay! I'll fight you for a few rounds! Let you be my hammer of the revenant! After speaking, he gestured one by one, and the formation of the soldiers and horses immediately dispersed, leaving an open space to come out.

Colonel Zuo also rode out on horseback, with a calm expression.

Ling Yan secretly rejoiced: Sun Xia didn't know whether he was alive or dead, he thought that Zuo School's qi had not recovered, so he dared to fight Zuo Colonel alone, maybe he didn't even know how he died in the end!

Sun Xia's eyes stared straight at Colonel Zuo, and after a few seconds of confrontation, he suddenly rode his horse and danced the hammer, running towards Colonel Zuo, shouting, "I will avenge my brother today!" Traitor, come and die! ”

Colonel Zuo didn't answer, and rode out.

Ling Yan wasn't worried that Zuo Xiao would defeat him at all, what he was predicting was that Zuo Xiao would pick Sun Xia off the horse in a few rounds.

However, the reality of the situation is very different from what Ling Yan thought.

Sun Xia's martial arts are not low, the long hammer dance is very orderly, and the offensive is fierce, and the moves directly hit the key points of the left school. But Colonel Zuo is naturally not an idle person, and the spear in his hand defuses Sun Xia's offensive one by one.

The enemy Yellow Turban soldiers saw that the main general was inextricably beaten, and they cheered one after another. One of the characteristics of their shouting is that Sun Xia has the upper hand, and their shouts suddenly become high, and if Colonel Zuo has the upper hand, their shouts will also fluctuate slightlyβ€”perhaps some of the Yellow Turban soldiers still habitually regard Colonel Zuo as their general.

But there was silence here, and the dozens of guards soldiers on Colonel Zuo had a cold expression on their faces, as if they had nothing to do with them.

Although Ling Yan was very confident in Colonel Zuo's martial arts, he had to admit in his heart at this time that he still underestimated Sun Xia a little - looking at the situation of Sun Xia and Colonel Zuo's struggle, their martial arts seemed to be equal.

Ling Yan doesn't know martial arts, but as a layman, he can also see that in terms of martial arts, Sun Xia should not be inferior to Zuo Xiao, maybe Zuo Xia may have a slight advantage, but this advantage is by no means to the extent that he can pick Sun Xia in a few rounds.

Colonel Zuo and Sun Xia were still coming and going, and when the heads of the two horses were staggered, they heard several loud sounds of earth-shaking iron tools colliding.

After the two of them fought for more than 30 rounds, Ling Yan was a little out of breath, he wanted to go out to help Colonel Zuo immediately, but he also knew that the ancient generals were single-handed, and the most shameful thing was to fight more and fight less, especially when the rules had been set before the battle.
