The black clouds crushed the city and wanted to destroy it, and the armor light opened to the moon golden scales. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Lewen personally commanded the soldiers to slam the city gate with their rushing carts. Cao's army resisted stubbornly, and they wanted to wait for reinforcements, but the messengers sent out were slow to hear from them.

"Knock open the gates!" Arrows rained down, fireworks were filled, Lewen rode a red rabbit horse, wielding a Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand, resisting the arrows shot down from the city wall, while commanding the soldiers, while shouting hard, the soldiers did not dare to retreat at all, one after another, one corpse after another, one by one, blood, gathered into a blood-red river.

"Ah...... Hey! Hearing His Majesty's urging, the soldiers who were pushing the crashing car did not dare to exert their strength without exerting their strength, shouting slogans in unison, and exerting all their strength one by one.

And behind the city gate of Hongnong County, he was desperately resisting the city gate that seemed to be about to fall apart, and he didn't feel a little chill in his heart, if he hit it like this again, the city gate would probably be knocked open soon.

"Tom!"

Finally, under the personal command of Lewen, the soldiers of the Han Dynasty finally broke through the gate of Hongnong County, and the soldiers of the Han Dynasty showed great joy in their eyes, and the soldiers who fell to the ground and did not completely close their eyes also slowly closed their eyelids, although they fell in a pool of blood, they had a victory smile on their faces.

"The city gate has been broken, and the soldiers will rush to kill with me!" Le Wen also put down the boulder in his heart, took the lead, held high the Fang Tian painting halberd, clamped the horse's belly, and rushed into Hongnong City.

From the beginning to the end of the war, Lewen personally commanded the soldiers and insisted on fighting, although the guards around him were all killed, he still refused to take a step back.

Cao Hong saw that the general trend was gone, so he had to take the remnants of the defeated army and run away from the east gate, but he was killed by an arrow when he ran.

Le Wen ordered the soldiers to wrap the corpse of Ma Gena Cao Hong and give him a thick burial. The remnants of the Cao army saw that the main general was dead, so they surrendered one after another, and there were more than 10,000 people who surrendered.

According to the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms, Wei Shu Yiwu Emperor Ji": "Chase the Yellow Turban to Jibei." In winter, 300,000 people were surrendered, more than one million men and women, and those who received their elite were called Qingzhou soldiers. ”

The Qingzhou soldiers were originally the team after the Yellow Turban Army was absorbed, and they were just incorporated by Cao Mengde, and they originally surrendered to Cao Mengde in order to survive, if it weren't for this, Lewen really didn't dare to accept it.

This time, the Han army lost more than 10,000, and the 10,000 Qingzhou soldiers who surrendered just made up for it, which is equivalent to no loss in terms of troops.

And the harvest is not small, not only got Hongnong County, but also got a lot of grain, grass, baggage, armor and weapons, and more than 300 war horses, war horses are very scarce in this era.

Because the war in the late Eastern Han Dynasty led to the scarcity of war horses, the source of war horses in the north has two large good horse production areas, one is Liaodong, Gongsun Zhan has been defeated by Yuan Shao, his white horse righteousness from the world, if there is no large number of good horses can not be done. There is also a piece of Yong and Liang in the northwest. The Northwest has produced good horses since ancient times. And Yongzhou is one of the ancient Kyushu states in China, and the Jingzhao is the area of Chang'an, and the area of Chang'an is controlled by Lewen, so that Lewen is sourced from his own war horses.

And Xiliang is controlled by Ma Teng and Han Sui, and now Ma Yunlu is Lewen's concubine, then Ma Teng is Lewen's father-in-law, and Ma Chao is Lewen's brother-in-law, and because Lewen has completed the task of subduing Ma Yunlu, he has additionally increased his favorability with the Ma Teng family, as long as he has the support of the Ma Teng family, then Xiliang will slowly become Lewen's rear.

Although horses are also produced in Sichuan, Sichuan horses and Yunnan horses are pack horses and cannot be ridden. In addition, the territory of Sichuan is mountainous and lacks grassland, which is not suitable for and is not easy to develop animal husbandry.

The southern part of the Yangtze River, which has many hills and rivers, is more unsuitable for raising horses, so the main source of war horses is Liaodong and the northwest Yong and Liang prefectures.

In ancient warfare, what class of troops was the most powerful?

That was the cavalry, especially in the era when there were no firearms, when Genghis Khan was able to sweep almost the world, relying on strong cavalry troops, and in ancient wars, military supplies were always a priority. However, due to the influence of various factors such as transportation, transportation capacity, and safety, the supply of military rations in ancient times was very difficult, and even dragged down the army itself and restricted the process and development of the war.

However, if we add the military supply of "sheep and horses with the expedition", then it can greatly solve a big problem in ancient warfare.

Because sheep and horses, as an important source of military supply, do not need special equipment to transport, saving a lot of transportation manpower and huge military expenditures, greatly reducing the burden of the army, and improving the speed, flexibility and enterprising spirit of the army. It is also this unique way of supply that makes Genghis Khan's cavalry as fast as a surge, as strong as a mountain, and invincible.

Therefore, after the war, Lewen vigorously rewarded the people for raising sheep and horses, which were specially used for the needs of the imperial court, and the people of Yongzhou, who belonged to Chang'an, raised sheep and horses one after another, which solved the problem of lack of sheep and horses, and Lewen decided to form a strong cavalry army.

After Hongnong County was captured by Le Wen with his own troops, all the princes and wealthy families who were not optimistic about Emperor Han Xian were shocked.

Cao Mengde, who was still attacking Xuzhou City, learned that Hongnong County was broken by Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, and Cao Hong was also shot.

And Cao Ren on the side was also heartbroken, and when he saw that he was about to fall, Cao Mengde hurriedly stepped forward to help, "Big brother! Big Brother ......"

But Cao Mengde's eyes were black and he fainted.

"Doctor, is my eldest brother okay?" Outside the big tent in the barracks, Cao Ren asked eagerly to the doctor who had just treated Cao Mengde.

The doctor's face was a little ugly, and he hesitated for a long time before he sighed and said, "Alas...... According to Xiao Ke's diagnosis, General Cao has already suffered from a head stroke......"

"Headwind? Possible cure? When Cao Ren heard that Cao Mengde was suffering from a head wind, his heart jumped, and he grabbed the doctor's arm and asked with a nervous face.

Cao Ren is worthy of being the proud general under Cao Mengde, his hand strength is extremely strong, the doctor's arm was caught by him, his face was white, and he couldn't help but cry out in pain, and pleaded: "Please...... Please don't get excited, General Cao has a head stroke, probably because he has been greatly stimulated, the disease has a long course, lingering and difficult to heal, and is easy to recur, if you want to cure it, it will take time. ”

Cao Ren heard the doctor's words, and said in his heart: "Xuzhou is already in the bag at this time, as long as it takes three days, I can take it, but now that my eldest brother is sick, I can't make my own decisions,...... How's that going to be?! ”

The doctor also knew that Cao Mengde's wind disease was basically incurable, but he didn't dare to tell the truth, just explained a few words, left a few prescriptions, and left in a hurry.

If Lewen knew that Cao Mengde's head stroke was because he captured Hongnong County and attacked Cao Mengde's anger to the heart, then Le Wen would definitely laugh.

In other words, there is such a saying about how Cao Mengde suffered from head wind.

One day, Cao Mengde invited the big-eared thief to dinner, and during the banquet, the big-eared thief let out a fart, which was very embarrassing. Zhao Yun beside him hurriedly said: "The fart comes from the clouds." Guan Yu was not to be outdone, "The fart comes from the feather (rain)." Zhang Fei shouted: "The fart is flying!" ”

After that, the four of them laughed. Only Cao Mengde didn't laugh. He was deeply touched by the matter. After sending away the big-eared thief and the others, Cao Mengde said to his subordinates: "Liu Xuande's subordinates saw that the lord was a little mistaken, and they all rushed to take it, and they were all loyal!" It's your turn, can you do it? The people said, "What's so hard about this?" ”

A few days later, the big-eared thief invited Cao Mengde to dinner, during the banquet, Cao Mengde held back for a long time before releasing a small fart, Cao Mengde's subordinates had been waiting for a long time, and the tiger idiot Xu Chu preemptively said: "The fart is released by Chu (pig)" Cao Mengde glared angrily, Dian Wei said: "The fart is from the pawn (upside down)." Xu Huang waved his hand, shook his head and said, "No, the fart is dangling!" Cao Mengde was about to get angry, and the strategist Guo Tu saw that Cao Mengde was about to get angry, and shouted loudly: "You are all wrong! The fart is a picture (spit) out" Cao Mengde rolled his eyes at that time, fainted, and suffered from head wind disease from then on......

"Ahem......!"

After a while, Cao Mengde coughed twice, slowly opened his eyes, and thought that Hongnong County had been attacked by Emperor Han Xian, whom he despised the most, and couldn't help but have two lines of tears flowing out of the corners of his eyes.

Seeing this, Cao Ren hurriedly stepped forward, "Big brother, you finally woke up, but the foolish brother was in a hurry, and the emperor was just taking advantage of the eldest brother's unpreparedness to enter the situation, and after taking Xuzhou, the foolish brother personally led the troops to take back Hongnong County, and by the way, the old nest of Emperor Han Xian was also served." ”

"No...... Don't ......" Cao Mengde raised his head and shouted two words, which made Cao Ren look confused.

"Big brother, why don't you take revenge?" Cao Ren didn't know what Cao Mengde meant by this, and scratched his scalp in confusion.

"No, don't attack Xuzhou, go back to Xuchang, go back to Xuchang quickly!" Cao Mengde felt that Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty had taken Hongnong County and was bound to take advantage of the victory to attack Xuchang, so he ordered Cao Ren's class to go back.

After speaking, Cao Mengde only felt dizzy and fainted again.

It seems that Cao Mengde was really angry with Lewen.

Cao Ren was unwilling, obviously Xuzhou was about to be taken, why did he want to Xuchang, he and Cao Mengde thought differently, he felt that Emperor Han Xian did not have the courage to attack Xuchang.

In fact, Lewen did not attack Xuchang, and it was not a matter of guts or not, but he had expected that as long as Cao Mengde learned the news that Hongnong County was breached, he would definitely return to Xuchang, because Lewen had a big lifeblood against Cao Mengde, that is, Cao Mengde's suspicion.

Cao Mengde didn't take Emperor Han Xian in his eyes before, but now Emperor Han Xian can actually take down Hongnong County guarded by Cao Hong, which means that Emperor Han Xian is definitely not the Emperor Han Xian in the eyes of the world, and he feels that the cowardice and incompetence shown by Emperor Han Xian before is likely to be an illusion.

If it is really like him, then Emperor Han Xian is too terrible.

Therefore, after he learned that Hongnong County was captured by Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, he would definitely want the class to return to Xuchang, and if Lewen went to attack Xuchang next, then he would definitely be like Lu Bu in history, who was beaten all over the ground by Cao Mengde.

Knowing each other and knowing that he is invincible, Lewen deeply understands Cao Mengde, and also knows the direction of history, which can be regarded as pinching Cao Mengde in the palm of his hand, Cao Mengde is invincible?

Lewen took Hongnong County, rewarded the soldiers of the three armies, rewarded the meritorious bounty officials, and punished the soldiers who should be punished with military sticks, and beheaded those who should be beheaded, with clear rewards and punishments, which made the soldiers of the three armies unconvinced.

Then Lewen ordered Zhang Liao to guard Hongnong County, Zhang Liao felt that His Majesty was heavy, grateful, raised his hand and swore an oath: "The last general will live up to his mission, the city is in the people!" The city is dead, the people are dead! ”

"Haha, Wenyuan, why bother, you are much more important in my heart than this Hongnong County, since I lost Hongnong, I don't want to lose Wenyuan you." Lewen's words of buying people's hearts can be regarded as completely buying Zhang Liao.

"Your Majesty......!!"

Zhang Liao was still moved and didn't know what to say, and secretly swore in his heart that even if Lewen wanted to take his head in the future, he would swear allegiance to Lewen.

And Ma Teng was also shocked when he learned that Lewen had taken Hongnong County, but after all, he was a prince, although Lewen was his son-in-law, but in his eyes, the territory was much more important than Ma Yunlu, and what did he count as a son-in-law, because Yongzhou and Liangzhou were adjacent to each other, and Ma Teng had never taken Emperor Han Xian seriously, so he did not take any defensive measures at the junction of Yongzhou and Liangzhou.

But today's Emperor Han Xian is obviously not the Emperor Han Xian in the past, although the system task completed by Lewen has increased the favorability of the Ma Teng family, but Ma Teng's favorability towards Lewen is negative, and now it is only a positive number at most.

And Ma Chao originally had some friendship with Lewen, and his favorability was also about 30, and after completing the system side quest, it also increased to 50, Ma Chao was also a trustworthy person, and he promised before that if Emperor Han Xian could personally lead troops to capture a city, he would be willing to obey Emperor Han Xian.

Although Ma Chao felt that Emperor Han Xian personally led his troops to attack the city, it was simply a joke to be able to attack a city, and Lewen knocked on the side at that time and set a trap on it.

And Ma Chao is also a heroic man who is full of words, so naturally he will not break his word and Lewen, but his father is Ma Teng after all, a prince, and this Xiliang army will be handed over to him in the future, so he hesitated.

Le Wen led the army back in triumph, and the officials and people of Chang'an went out of the city for ten miles to greet each other and celebrate.

Although more than 10,000 soldiers were lost in the attack on Hongnong County, they died in battle to help the Han Dynasty, and Lewen also paid a lot of pensions to the families of the fallen soldiers, which is an honor. (To be continued.) )
