Zhang Fei: "There is nothing big about the camp, with Mr. Cheng in the third brother, you can rest assured, these Diao people can't hurt our Hezhou army, but they really don't want to die!" Zhang Fei looked at the people who were dying in the city.

Zhang Xiang also felt that it was wrong, these people were no different from sending them to death, they kept rushing forward, and they didn't have weapons in their hands, at most they were wooden sticks or something, Zhang Xiang felt that they were sending them to their necks for people to cut off.

Such an attack could not pose any threat at all, although the Liangzhou army attacking the city outside the city was very fierce, but because the line of sight was blocked, there was no great effect, Zhang Xiang did not believe that this was Jia Xu's backhand.

If this is really the case, Jia Xu is not worthy of the name of the poisoner, and all the people on the side of the state are concentrated on Zhang Xiang's side, so that the other city gates are not densely defended, and a group of Liangzhou elites suddenly rushed out at the east gate.

Crazy to seize the city gate, the guards of the East City are Zhao Rui and Yan Gang, because of the chaos in the city just now, Yan Gang went back to collect the cavalry, so there is only one Zhao Rui on the East City now.

Zhao Ruiyong was brave, but his resourcefulness was slightly insufficient, so he neglected the defense in the city, and was exploited by these Liangzhou elites to open the city gate, and at this time, a group of Liangzhou iron horsemen also poured out of the east city.

Obviously, this matter had been prepared, Zhao Rui had to go down in person to block the city gate, Zhao Rui gave up the sledgehammer, but picked up two spears and rushed down, Zhao Rui used the spear as a double hammer.

It can be regarded as very brave, the speed of the Liangzhou Iron Cavalry is very fast, and he quickly rushed to the city gate, and at this time, Zhao Rui only rushed to the inner city gate, and actively Zhao Rui threw out two spears and shot at the Iron Cavalry.

A Liangzhou war horse fell instantly, Zhao Rui rushed up with two corpses on the ground, and the main general naturally followed with the soldiers of Bingzhou behind him, but despite Zhao Rui's bravery, the Liangzhou iron cavalry still rushed out of the city gate.

Fortunately, at this time, Yan Gang heard the movement and rushed over with his troops, Yan Gang is the guard of the East Gate, if he loses it, he is duty-bound, Yan Gang immediately brought his cronies and cavalry to support.

happened to see the Liangzhou Iron Cavalry rushing in, Yan Gang's cavalry were all the old foundations of the original Gongsun Zhan, and they were not bad in terms of bravery, Zhao Rui at this time was also knocked into the city by the cavalry, and he also saw Yan Gang's support.

Zhao Rui: "General Yan led people to rush in. Yan Gang understood what Zhao Rui meant, that is, to charge to the death and close the city gate first, this matter is also very important to Yan Gang, and Yan Gang does not pity his men.

Yan Gang's cavalry rushed forward with arrows, and Yan Gang did not slow down at all in order to ensure the impact, and both the enemy and his own soldiers trampled all the way along the way.

The foot soldiers dodged one after another, Yan Gang successfully faced the Liangzhou Iron Cavalry, the Liangzhou Iron Cavalry was the dominant side, naturally he would not really fight hard, Yan Gang took the opportunity to lead people into the city gate road.

paid the price of blood, and finally closed the city gate, Yan Gang was not injured, but his war horse died in the city gate road, and was finally used to block the city gate, when Zhang Xiang knew the news, he could only say that it was dangerous.

After the failure of the surprise attack on the east city, the Liangzhou army outside the west city gate also retreated, and just as Zhang Xiang ordered people to clean up the battlefield, the Liangzhou soldiers rushed up again, but this time it was thunder and rain.

Obviously, it was a tired tactic, Zhang Xiang could only order the soldiers to rest in shifts, but Zhang Xiang couldn't sleep at all, and stayed on the city wall until dawn, Zhang Xiang knew that last night was just a thrilling appetizer.

Today is the real tough battle, and at this time, the army in the city came with the news of poisoning, Zhang Xiang immediately returned to the camp in the city, and the doctor who accompanied the army told Zhang Xiang that the soldiers were poisoned by the water source.

Zhang Xiang also understood why the soldiers on the city wall were not poisoned, and the soldiers defending the city would eat later than the soldiers in the city, so there was nothing to do, that is to say, someone took advantage of the war last night to take the opportunity to poison.

There were a lot of soldiers who were poisoned this time, nearly seventy percent of the soldiers, but to Zhang Xiang's surprise, these poisons did not die, if it was really a deadly herb, Zhang Xiang really didn't have to fight.

In fact, Zhang Xiang wants to thank Jia Xu for this point, this strategy is Jia Xu's plan, everything last night was foreshadowed in order to poison the water source in the city, and no one will notice it.

However, Jia Xu knows the truth of leaving a line in doing things, so he gave Zhang Xiang a glimmer of life, Zhang Xiang didn't know the truth, he could only sigh that he was lucky, but now the situation is really critical.

The poisoned soldiers need to recuperate for at least three days to recover their combat strength, and it will take at least five days to get all right, which means that Zhang Xiang will have to withstand at least three days when the enemy is outnumbered.

Li Dao would not give Zhang Xiang a chance to breathe, he began to attack the city as soon as it was dawn, and it was a siege of three missing one, which was a great test for the number of defenders, and Zhang Xiang simply sent all the existing soldiers to defend the three gates.

On the other hand, Zhang Xiang chose to force the people in the city to garrison, Zhang Xiang did not lack weapons and armor here, and they were pretending to stand up, if it was an ordinary person, Zhang Xiang would definitely not do it.

But the people in the city made Zhang Xiang feel no guilt at all, many people participated in last night's rebellion, it turned out that these were Jia Xu's poisonous plans, and many of these people's relatives were in Jia Xu's hands.

Zhang Xiang didn't think that Jia Xu would deal with himself so painstakingly, poor people must have something to hate, Zhang Xiang would not be polite to these poor people, and threw them on the city wall.

Therefore, the gate that no one attacked seemed to have the most defenders, but Li Dao did not doubt this, Li Dao was a veteran of the battlefield, so he naturally understood that the gate that was missing one of the three was actually the most prone to problems.

That is to say, the one that is often missing is the most heavily defended city gate, and the lack of one of the three must also pay attention to the direction of the main attack.

Zhang Xiang also personally led the fierce generals to guard the west gate, and the generals ate small stoves and were a little more fine, so before they had time to eat breakfast, there was poisoning in the army and escaped.

However, after dawn, Zhang Xiang understood why Li Dao chose to attack Xicheng, Zhang Xiang had not paid attention in the early morning, and now he found that there were many cracks in the western city wall.

And there are trebuchets on Li Dao's side, Li Dao occupies the ancient capital of the Han Dynasty without loss, and the number of trebuchets is really a lot, although Li Dao's trebuchet range is not far, but the threat to the broken west city wall is still very great.

The trebuchet was within the range of the bow and arrow defending the city, and Zhang Xiang could only order the rockets to be fired, but the number of Li Dao's trebuchets was obviously beyond Zhang Xiang's imagination, and Zhang Xiang felt that he had transported all the trebuchets in Yongzhou.

Zhang Xiang didn't allow trebuchets to attack the city wall for a long time, so it would collapse sooner or later, Zhang Xiang suddenly stood up, "Li Dao dares to come out and see it." "Zhang Xiang, this is also helpless.

It was tempting to be able to delay for a while, and at this time, Li Dao immediately withdrew his troops, and the Liangzhou soldiers who were besieging the city also retreated, "Zhang Xiang, do you and I still need to talk?" Your attack on my Yongzhou this time is menacing! ”

Zhang Xiang: "In the past, we were allies, the well water did not interfere with the river water and the personal relationship was good, each took what he needed, and now I am nominally the lord of Yongzhou, and I should come to my own place as a matter of course." ”

Li Wei: "Good things have always been obtained by capable people, Yongzhou has never been your place Zhang Xiang, if you want to get involved, of course ask me, if you say so, I can take people to Bingzhou." ”

Zhang Xiang: "Of course, no one stopped you, and the land of Bingzhou is there, I will definitely treat you politely when you come, at least I can't be like you, regardless of the reason to meet each other." ”

Li Dao: "You are still the master when I go to Bingzhou, but you come to Yongzhou but live as the master, all the good things are yours, where do you want to put me?" It seems that there is really no need for us to talk about it. ”

Zhang Xiang: "Li Zhoumu and slow hands, now this situation is caused by the imperial court, I have a number of names on my head, and the state Mu Yongzhou Mu Du, naturally I have the right to manage and merge the state." ”

Li Dao knew that he couldn't play Zhang Xiang by himself, "I really can't say anything about you, your move is just to delay, your soldiers should be poisoned now!" ”

Zhang Xiang: "I really want to thank you for this, because your action made me lose thirty percent of the soldiers, fortunately your poison is not fatal, otherwise I would not have talked to you calmly." ”

Li Dao really didn't know if poison was fatal, Li Dao immediately thought of Jia Xu, but Li Dao didn't show it, "Zhang Xiang, you came out of me, not to say these useless words!" ”

Zhang Xiang: "Naturally, I don't hide this, I want to get Yongzhou, but my brother's strength surprised me, how about we work together again, you can achieve great things together." ”

Li Dao: "Zhang Xiang, I really see through you, you are the one who wants to beat me, and you are the one who wants to cooperate with me, it's strange that you believe you with this mouth, I sent troops to test my strength, but I will test you!" Cooperation should also be on equal terms between the two sides, and we will talk about you defending the city for three days. ”

Li Dao attacked the city again with a wave of his hand, but Li Dao didn't realize that because of what he had just said, the morale of the army was eroding, and the two sides defending the city on the first day were still in the process of testing.

In the evening, Li Wei found Jia Xu, "What's going on with the military advisor?" Why isn't the poison in the city deadly? Since Jia Xu dares to do it, he naturally has a reason to get rid of his own suspicion.

Jia Xu: "I don't know if this is down, maybe it was discovered by Zhang Xiang's people when the soldier was poisoned, or Zhang Xiang was bluffing, but we naturally knew about it three days later." ”

Li Wei didn't want to pursue it at this time, he just wanted to point out Jia Xu, "Strategist, what do you think of the cooperation that Zhang Xiang said?" Is it necessary for us to cooperate in three days? Li Dao's heart was swinging.

Jia Xu: "If Zhang Xiang's strength is not damaged after three days, it doesn't hurt for us to cooperate, after all, Zhang Xiang is also a difficult opponent, even if we want to do it, we have to wait until Zhang Xiang's strength declines, for example, Yuan Shao's army attacks and merges the state." ”

Li Dao: "Strategist, what's going on?" Didn't Yuan Jun quell the chaos in Youzhou? Jia Xu proposed Yuan Shao, naturally because he didn't want Li Dao to pursue Zhang Xiang's affairs, and the situation was as he expected.

Jia Xu: "Yuan Shaoming is in order to pacify Youzhou, but there are too many troops, Zhang Xiang even deployed heavy troops in Yuyang County, which is to guard against Yuan Shao, otherwise he will attack more troops in Bingzhou." ”

Li Dao: "Could it be that Zhang Xiang wants to fight on two fronts, he is too arrogant, and he really regards the heroes of the world as nothing." Li Dao was suddenly very angry, and he felt that Zhang Xiang looked down on him a little.

Jia Xu: "The general is angry, Zhang Xiang does have the capital to fight on two fronts, in recent years, Zhang Xiang has continued to recruit troops and buy horses, not only annexing our Liangzhou soldiers, but also annexing some of Gongsun Zhan's Liaoxi soldiers, its momentum is better than in the past, he only needs to take Yongzhou to stabilize the situation." ”

"It seems that Zhang Xiang is bound to lead the army this time, so what he said about cooperation is lying to me, and I still think it is possible to cooperate?" Li Dao suddenly felt ridiculous.

Jia Xu: "Actually, it's not true, Zhang Xiang does want to get involved in Yongzhou, but if Yongzhou can't be won in the short term, he can only retreat and merge with the state, which is also Zhang Xiang's next policy." ”

However, Jia Xu did not say that Zhang Xiang would never implement the next policy, and Zhang Xiang was also worried about this matter at this time, he knew very well that he could not lead the army back to Bingzhou, so it was impossible to cooperate with Li Dao.

Zhang Xiang would not count on Han Sui, at this time, Li Wei personally came to have a strong army, which means that Han Sui did not play any role at all, or did not make a move at all, if it was not trapped in the city.

Zhang Xiang must know the situation on Han Sui's side, what Zhang Xiang has to do now is how to keep these three days at the least cost, Zhang Xiang has not forgotten the agreement with Guo Jia.

At this time, Zhang Xiang can still think of this, it can only be said that greed is the biggest source of power, that night Zhang Xiang sent a group of dead cavalry, breaking through from a gate, in order to play the role of a suspicious soldier.

The direction in which this group of dead soldiers went was the direction where Han Sui's army was, and Zhang Xiang did it to show that he was fearless, but when Li Wei received the news, he really believed it.

However, he didn't believe it all, he believed that it was just that the casualties in Zhang Xiangcheng were not so large, which meant that the operation on the first night was not so effective, and Li Dao also became cautious.

The next day, the army attacking Li Dao did not go all out, but Zhang Xiang's side was fully prepared, Zhang Xiang ordered a large number of houses to be demolished, in order to make up for the lack of defense, Zhang Xiang came to attack the city and plunder the land.

Therefore, there is no rolling wood and stones in the army at all, and it can only be made like this first, and there is a lot of fire oil in the army, and fortunately, there is so much fire oil, Zhang Xiang's side will not be so embarrassed to defend the city.

Zhang Xiang's side is holding steadily, not giving Li Dao any chance, and not attacking easily, in fact, he does not have the strength to attack, just to prevent Li Dao from figuring out the situation on his side.

The more confused Li Wei is, the safer he is relative to his side, Zhang Xiang personally wrote a letter to Jia Xu to express his gratitude, in order to separate the relationship between Jia Xu and Li Wei. (To be continued.) )
