"Guarding the east gate of Yecheng?" Cao Pi rode his horse and heard Su You say this, and then asked, "I don't know who this person is?" Is it reliable? ”

Su You replied: "This person is Yuan Shang's nephew Xianrong of the Jizhou Separate Driving Trial, serving as the captain of the east gate of Yecheng, and his job is to guard the north gate of Yecheng. ”

"Captain Dongmen? My Han official system only in the period of Emperor Wu only has the position of captain of the city gate, and then the southern army is in charge of the internal and external security of the imperial capital, and there is no such position, during the period of Emperor Wu, this is an official position of two thousand stones, Yuan Shao was just a general when he was alive, and he was not crowned king, and Yecheng was not his capital, who gave him the captain of the east gate? Cao Pi was well-read, and as soon as he heard this, he found out about the troops.

Su You immediately replied: "The trial match is from Wei County, and his family is a big family from Wei County, and Yuan Shao was able to overthrow Han Fu and become the ruler of Jizhou. It has always won Yuan Shao's trust. When the Yuan family was at its peak, according to the four states of the north, but the foundation was still in Jizhou, and the power of Yuan Shao's trusted family was greater, and there were many children of his relatives in the army. Now the city gate of Yecheng is the same as Luoyang, a total of 12 gates, three gates in the east, west, north and south. All four doors have school captains. ”

"I see, Yuan Shao had already trespassed before he sent his troops south, but if this Dongmen Captain Xianrong can lead me into the city, then his transgression of the Dongmen Captain is not a big crime, I can protect him, but if he surrenders, where will he be placed in his uncle's trial?" Cao Pi asked with a smile. 【】

"The trial has no plan, repeatedly made stupid moves, and the main south and defeated, supporting Yuan Shang led to the brothers turning against each other, the four states were divided, and now they are loyal to Yuan Shang, and they slaughtered Xin Bi's family in Yecheng, in order to punish him for Yuan Tan to do the things that made the envoy, this kind of action has made everyone in Jizhou endanger, now the Yuan army is weak, the court is strong, the big clan just wants to choose the strong to vote, and live a peaceful life, now the trial and killing the Xin Bi family is equivalent to forcing themselves to a dead end, we all know, Yuan Tan has now joined the court, Xin Bi is a courtier, How can there be no reason not to take revenge when the city is broken on a different day, and it is inevitable that it will be angry, and the big clan thinks that it is wonderful to sacrifice the city, and the trial Rong has always been friendly with Xinbi, and in addition to the trial, no one plans to die for the Yuan family, so that the last general will bring a message to the ruling Jinwu. ”

After Su You finished speaking, Cao Pi nodded, and said with a smile: "The court is benevolent, and it will not anger others, Xin Biwu has seen it, he is a reasonable person, and now he has arrived in Xudu, and his daughter-in-law is in Liyang, although the family was punished, after all, he still left a daughter, which is also a blessing." I can ensure that he only kills and matches the direct line of revenge, and you should be safe. ”

Cao Zhen said with a smile on the side: "The trial will inevitably fight to the death, the battle of Guandu, his two sons are gone, and the court is already a never-ending situation." ”

"In this case, then judge this team to change and extinguish, pass on my generals, and the whole army will enter the Huang to repair for two days, go straight to Yecheng, and drink Ma Zhangshui." Cao Pi said.

Hearing this, he immediately rode his horse to the team of tiger and leopard riders in front, and then the tiger and leopard riders divided some knights and galloped to the rear army to give orders.

On the same day, Cao Pi's army entered Neihuang, and Su You took out a lot of wine and meat with the local squires to entertain the army, because Cao Pi's army still has people's husbands, and this only 5,000 households of Neihuang can't get so much wine and meat, so only 10,000 soldiers can improve their lives, and the people still eat the military food brought by the army.

Two days of repair, Cao Pi continued to march, this time there was no city blocking the way along the way, so he walked very fast, and did not set up a sentry tower at night, just set up a tent and let the tiger and leopard ride out to cruise, in order to save time, Cao Pi thought that now Yuan Shangwan could not come out again to attack himself, if he wanted to sneak attack should transfer the defenders of Pingsi and Neihuang City, pretend to flee in a hurry, paralyze himself, and then fall out of the elite soldiers to sneak attack at night, burning the grain and grass.

It's a pity that Yuan Shang didn't do this, but let people stick to Ping Si and Nei Huang, and now Ping Si is broken, and Nei Huang is down. There are not many sergeants brought by Su You to Neihuang, only 2,000 people, that is his cronies, and now these 2,000 people are still in Neihuang, but the food in the city was taken away by Cao Pi, leaving only five days of rations for them, so as to prevent them from chasing Cao Pi's ass to make a sneak attack, and now there is no food, so naturally they dare not come out to sneak attack, but these people will not starve to death, because Cao Pi has summoned Liyang and asked his father Cao Cao to allocate an army with grain and grass to receive the soldiers.

Neihuang to Linzhang is about 160 miles away, if it is an army like Xiahou Yuan who is good at speed, he can come to the city in one day, but Cao Pi seeks stability, so he walks for two days to reach the bottom of Yecheng.

Yecheng is the same as Su You said, each city wall has three gates, now Cao Pi is facing the south gate of Yecheng, it can be seen that Yecheng is the stronghold of Yuan Shao's painstaking management, the city wall is as high as fifteen chapters, that is to say, more than thirty meters, in the era of cold weapons, more than thirty meters of the city wall is a fortress that needs to be filled with countless lives, and the effect of any ladder rushing catapult will be greatly reduced, because such a tall city wall can also be placed trebuchet, and it can also accommodate more soldiers, and the speed of defending the city is very fast. Coupled with condescending, it is bound to be easy to defend and difficult to attack.

The current technology is not enough to make a strong ladder up to 30 meters high, the higher this thing is, the easier it is to damage, so in the face of such a big city, either use countless ladders to rush to the top of the city, or use a rushing car to break through the city wall, either way, it will require a lot of lives, not to mention that there is a moat two feet wide outside the city.

Cao Zhen looked at Yecheng from afar and sighed: "Xu Du has been repaired for many years because the Son of Heaven moved the capital, and it is not half the size of Yecheng." ”

Xiahou Ba was also amazed by the majesty of Yecheng: "I once went to Luoyang when I was a child, although Luoyang was ravaged by Dong Zhuo and was dilapidated, but the city is still there, the city wall is still thirty-six miles, and the ruins of the north and south palaces can vaguely see its magnificence in the past. ”

"Yecheng is the stronghold of the Yuan family, the four states of the north are all looking forward to Yecheng, the business travel in the north wants to make a fortune, the scholars must come to Yecheng if they want to show their reputation, Yuan Shao has the support of the four states, this Yecheng can be said to be picked up with the strength of the people, clans and armies of the four states, and it is the essence of the four states." The sergeants were camping, and all the generals came to Cao Pi's side, and it was Yuan Shao's old general Gao Lan who spoke.

"When I was a child, I traveled to Luoyang, the appearance of this Yecheng is not much better than Luoyang, but in the distance of fifty miles outside the city, Luoyang can see the north and south two palaces that are extremely steep and sky-high Lingque Gate, the Deyang Hall that accommodates 10,000 people, the heavy buildings and high pavilions, the painting house Zhu Liang seems to be connected by heaven and earth from a distance, but the Yecheng in front of this scene is a few points worse." Cao Ren said with a smile.

Most of the people have never seen the heyday of Luoyang, because Luoyang has been burned by Dong Zhuo fourteen years ago, and they are all fascinated by Cao Ren's words.

Cao Pi smiled: "Although it is not as good as Luoyang, but it is still necessary to take it, after the camp is erected, you will go to the Chinese army's big tent for a while." ”
