Chapter 56: The First Confrontation (Asking for Recommendation)

Ten miles away from the west of Xixian County, Liu Yu led three thousand Yanyun Jing to stop in a burst of horse neighing, from galloping at high speed to neatly stopping, the whole formation was not a trace of messiness, if everyone in the world saw the art of war, they would definitely be amazed.

"Yide, send a bunch of scouts and kill all the sentinels in front." Glancing at the yellow turban scout who was leaving quickly, Liu Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at Xi Zhicai, who was smiling and silent, and immediately commanded in a deep voice.

"No." Zhang Fei responded, immediately waved the Eight Snake Spear, and said loudly: "Sun Li, lead your subordinates to kill all the scouts in front of me for me, if you miss one, you don't have to come back." Zhang Fei's voice fell, and immediately a hundred horses scattered and fanned forward.

Seeing this, Liu Yu drove his horse, but his speed did not increase to the peak, but he hung unhurriedly behind the scouts, not only because he was close to the enemy, and it was not easy to speed up; It is also because I am afraid that there are traps such as horse traps in front of me, and it is also one of the tasks of scouts to discharge the traps.

The distance of ten miles, even if it did not speed up, it only took a moment to come to the outside of the city of Xixian County, and Liu Yu immediately stopped five hundred meters outside the city.

The city town is four meters high, the city gate is wrapped with iron sheets, there is also a moat in front of the city, the suspension bridge on the river has long been retracted, and the city wall is full of dense yellow turban troops.

After observing, Liu Yu's brows couldn't help frowning, the cavalry was not good at attacking the city, and, because all the cavalry were lightly armed, there was no siege equipment at all, the most important thing was that if he wanted to capture the city in front of him, even if it was the elite degree of Yan Yunjing's cavalry, it was only possible to fight most of it, and this was only a few possibilities, and the most important thing was that he was willing to use Yanyun Jingcai to attack the city, and he was distressed for a long time if he lost a few, let alone this kind of siege battle.

"It seems that we can only act according to the plan, and besides, we must kill Guan Hai in this battle, or capture him alive, otherwise let the other party escape, then the 10,000 yellow turban elites in Gaomi are not suitable to capture." Liu Yu thought in his heart.

Thinking of this, Liu Yu immediately drove a few steps forward and shouted loudly: "I am Liu Yu of Youzhou, who is the general in this city?" Come forward and talk. ”

After speaking, Liu Yu made a few gestures behind him, Xu Rong saw this, and immediately whispered a few words to the guards around him, but after a while, from the Yanyun Iron Cavalry, there were Santun's cavalry scattered in the other three directions to be on guard.

After Liu Yu finished shouting, two people appeared in the city surrounded by a group of guards, these two were Guan Hai and Kong Rong, the two asked a few words in a low voice, and then looked down, and immediately took a breath of cold air, with an expression of disbelief on their faces.

"If I'm not mistaken, it looks like a fish scale armor, right? And more than 3,000? Guan Hai looked at the black pressure below, and said with a face full of disbelief.

In this era, armor is the general's equipment, and fish scale armor is the top grade in armor, but now there are three thousand below, which has to make Guan Hai amazed, in this era, no matter who sees it, they have to say admiration, a big deal.

This is the difference between the two eras, for people in this era, soldiers and horses are cannon fodder, and they will be recruited after death, and they will definitely not spend too much financial resources, except for a few elites, and for Liu Yu, every soldier under his command is very precious, even if it costs a lot of money, he is willing to pay, this is the difference in the perception of the army, and it is this difference that allows Liu Yu to create a legend that has been fighting for three years without losing a member.

Every time they finished observing a piece of equipment, Guan Hai and Kong Rong exclaimed, and even those Yellow Turban soldiers couldn't help but show a greedy look, in this era of war and chaos, just a piece of fish scale armor is worth a few lives.

After observing the equipment, whether it was Guan Hai or Kong Rong, he saw the neatly formed formation below, standing silently, and full of murderous aura, just watching from a distance, he felt a strong sense of oppression, and couldn't help but say: "Elite, elite in the world." ”

At the same time, the two of them couldn't help but start to suspect that whether it was equipment or momentum, the three thousand elite horsemen in front of them seemed to be a step stronger than the most elite Imperial Forest Army of the Great Han, which made the two of them sigh, sure enough, there was no vanity under the fame.

Seeing that there was no response on the city wall for a long time, Liu Yu's face showed a solemn look, and he immediately shouted again: "I am Liu Yu of Youzhou, who is the general in this city?" Come forward and talk. ”

Liu Yu's shouting was like the sound of a deep mountain bell, resounding above and below the city, focusing all eyes on him.

"This person is the champion Hou Liu Yu?"

The Yellow Turban soldiers in the city, as well as Guan Hai and Kong Rong, all looked at Liu Yu who was dressed in the same way as ordinary Yan Yun Jing Cavalry, in the impression of everyone, since the equipment of Yan Yun Jing Cavalry was so extraordinary, then Liu Yu, as the commander, should be one level higher no matter how he said it.

In fact, this is also Liu Yu's choice in desperation, from later generations, of course he knows about the method of military training, like Wu Qi and Yue Fei It is best to share the joys and hardships with the soldiers, but, of course, look at it and talk about it, but let him do it, he will never be able to do it, after all, if anyone can do this kind of thing, then how many famous generals are there in the world?

In the end, in desperation, Liu Yu lured him with profit, coupled with the same armor and weapons, he shared the joys and hardships when fighting, and tried his best to do these small aspects, as for those who had a lasting surname and the soldiers who shared the joys and sorrows, he really couldn't do it.

"In the lower Yellow Turban Army, the commander Guan Hai, I have seen the champion Hou." Guan Hai came back to his senses from surprise, and immediately stepped forward, clenching his fists and saying loudly.

"Driving" heard someone reply, Liu Yu kicked the horse's belly lightly, and rode alone towards the city wall, until he stopped outside the shooting range, then squinted towards the city wall, carefully swept the city wall, and couldn't help but show a look of surprise in his eyes, Guan Hai's figure He found it at once, but, with the air of a book, Kong Rong, who was a famous man, stood beside Guan Hai, which made his face a little ugly, if it was just Guan Hai, then he still had fifty percent of the certainty that according to the original plan, he would lure Guan Hai out of the city to fight, but now there is one more famous man, that his not clever strategy is obviously not easy to use, and the sturdy yellow turban soldiers on the city wall also surprised him, knowing in his heart that this battle will not end so easily.

After thinking about it, Liu Yu hugged his fists with a solemn face and said: "It turned out to be General Guan, but I don't know the people around the general, Ben Hou is fortunate to get acquainted?" After speaking, I kept praying in my heart, but I must not be the top strategist I have heard of.

Kong Rong on the city wall changed his face when he heard this, but he regained his calm in the next moment, and immediately stepped forward and said in a clear tone: "Confucian Kong Rong Kong Wenju, I have seen Hou Ye." ”

"Kong Rong?!" Liu Yu looked at the righteous Kong Rong on the city wall in surprise, his head was full of question marks, no matter what, Kong Rong couldn't get involved with Guan Hai, even if the wealthy families of this era put their families before the imperial court, but, in the evaluation of Kong Rong in history, how could he not stand on the side of the Yellow Turban Army.

These were just flashes in Liu Yu's mind, and then, his face became serious, in history, Kong Rong was indeed not a top strategist, not even a first-class strategist, but just a Kong Rong pear can make no one look down on him, and his wisdom is definitely not bad.

"It turned out to be Brother Wenju." Liu Yu hugged his fists, and after speaking, he no longer bothered with Kong Rong.

"I have governed the world for 400 years, and now the demons and evil are in turmoil, causing the people of the world to be miserable, and now I Liu Yu am willing to level the world for the Son of Heaven, sweep away the rebellion, and the rebel Guan Hai and Kong Rong dare to fight to the death with this candidate." Liu Yu drew his sword out of the sheath, pointed at Guan Hai and the others, and shouted loudly.

Hearing this, Kong Rong changed color first, staring at Liu Yu with a strange glint in his eyes, and the Hou Ye below didn't give him a chance to explain at all, which made him have a hard time, his mouth opened a few times, and in the end he didn't say anything, but he just felt a bitter mouth.

At this time, Guan Hai ignored Kong Rong beside him, but looked at Liu Yu with a stern face, if he didn't see Yan Yunjing before he rode it, he still wanted to fight with the other party, then now, he just wanted to defend the drama county.

"Hou Ye, the emperor is mediocre, causing the people of the world to be bored, the great virtuous teacher asks for life on behalf of the people, what a majestic strategy, why don't Hou Ye enter my yellow scarf, Guan is guaranteed by the head of the item, Hou Ye joins my yellow scarf, and the great sage and good teacher must take it as his right-hand man." Guan Hai said in a loud voice with excitement on his face, showing his fanatical loyalty to the great sage and good teacher.

The people present, including Liu Yu, only thought that Guan Hai was very loyal to Zhang Jiao, but no one knew that in Guan Hai's heart, it was even more ambitious than Zhang Jiao.

"If you want Ben Hou to join the Yellow Turban, as long as you can defeat the three thousand elite horsemen under my command, what does it matter if Ben Hou joins your Yellow Turban, you dare to lose?" Liu Yu said loudly, although he said that he would join the Yellow Turban Army, but everyone present knew that he did not have the slightest idea of joining when they listened to the strong confidence in his words.

In the face of Liu Yu's fierce battle, Guan Hai was speechless, although he had 20,000 troops in his hands, but there were only 300 cavalry, and these 300 were still scraped together by him, he didn't want to go out and die.

By now, Liu Yu also knew that his plan had been completely in vain, and looked at Guan Hai on the city wall and did not answer, and immediately shouted again and said: "Since General Guan doesn't dare to fight, then dare to fight with Benhou in front of the formation?" ”

Hearing this, Guan Hai's face changed for a while, he felt the sight of the people around him, and his thoughts flashed, he didn't dare to fight before, which had already made his morale plummet, if he didn't even dare to fight, then the morale would fall too much, and for an army like the Yellow Turban Army that fights with faith, the strength of morale is also related to combat effectiveness, but he doesn't want to go down and die by himself.

Immediately, Guan Hai said in a deep voice: "Whoever goes down with me to behead him, Benqu Shuai will award his daughter and be promoted to three levels." ”
