Soon after Zang Ba took Chang Feng and Yin Li to the city tower, a cavalry mentioned by the herald came to the city of Xiaxiang. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This cavalry stopped a stone's throw from the city, and it was undoubtedly elite to judge by just looking at its well-organized formation, its style of ordering and prohibiting, and its immovable military might.

Zang Ba was very surprised in his heart, judging from the two troops he saw, Liu Miao's crossbowmen and cavalry, they were all rare elites in the world, and it was conceivable that Liu Miao's elites must be more than what he saw.

Zang Ba was very curious about how Liu Miao had trained such a powerful army in a short period of time, as far as he knew, Liu Miao had been in office as the Taishou of Jiujiang for less than half a year, which was really incredible!

Just as he was paying attention to the cavalry, two people walked out of the opposing formation, and the armor of these two people was incompatible with the cavalry, and they were the color of Zang Bajun.

"Big brother, it seems to be Sun Guan and Wu Dun!"

Yin Li's exclamation interrupted Zang Ba's thoughts, and Zang Ba looked at it, and it was really Sun Guan and Wu Dun who came over.

They've been caught? Why did you send them here? Could it be that they all surrendered to Liu Miao and came to surrender?

Zang Ba's mind became more complicated.

At this time, Sun Guan and Wu Dun had already arrived in front of the city gate.

Sun Guan shouted in the air: "Big brother, we're back, let's go into the city!" ”

"What's going on with the cavalry in the back? How will you be with them? Chang Xuan obviously had some ideas.

Sun Guan looked ashamed and replied, "It's a long story, let's go into the city and talk about it!" ”

Chang Feng said: "It's okay to let you into the city, but what to do if the enemy soldiers take the opportunity to seize the city?" ”

Wu Dun, who was beside Sun Guan, said angrily: "Do you suspect that we have colluded with the enemy soldiers to defraud the city? ”

None of the Chang Xuan and others at the head of the city answered, obviously meaning this.

Sun Guan and Wu Dun had no choice but to look at their eldest brother Zang Ba, who had always looked forward to the horse, as if asking for help.

In fact, Zang Ba was also hesitating, he didn't believe Sun Guan and Wu Dun, but he was worried that the enemy would use a trick, and the cavalry would be too close to the city, and when they opened the city gate, it was completely enough for the cavalry to rush into the city.

He looked at the cavalry outside the city again, but found that the other party began to move, but instead of coming to the city gate, he turned and went away, and the speed of the whole cavalry was extremely fast, and it only disappeared in a moment, leaving only the dust that flew up.

Everyone looked in the direction of the cavalry's departure with some surprise, and could not guess the other party's intentions.

"Throw a rope down and pull them up." Zang Ba chose the safest method.

At the head of the city, Sun Guan and Wu Dun both knelt down in front of Zang Ba, bowed their heads and said ashamedly: "Big brother, our army has been wiped out, and our brothers have all been captured. ”

Zang Ba sighed, stepped forward to help the two of them, and said, "It's good to come back, it's not your fault, it's my fault." It's just that how did the other party send you here? ”

Sun Guan and Wu Dun looked at each other and smiled bitterly, and then Sun Guan replied: "I don't know why, after being captured, I only saw a young general surnamed Zhang, who was the commander of the cavalry. He asked us to convey a message to the eldest brother, his lord Liu Miao will personally come to the city, and our captured brothers will also be brought, and their fate depends on the decision of the eldest brother at that time. ”

"What do you mean?" Yin Li frowned and said, "They didn't recruit you?" ”

"No, besides, the eldest brother is here, how can we surrender?" Wu Dun said angrily.

"I see." Zang Ba waved his hand to stop Yin Li, who was going to ask again, and said with a wry smile: "The other party has decided to eat us, and wants to kill me and so on!" ”

"Humph! Liu Miao just took advantage of my unpreparedness and played a conspiracy to take advantage of it. We're going to hold on to this city now, and see what he can do to me!" Chang Feng muttered indignantly.

But the rest of the people felt a little fever on their faces, they were the ones who ambushed them in advance, and they were the ones who attacked first, but they ended up in a fiasco, can this be said that others are playing a conspiracy?

"Let's wait for Liu Miao to come before we act." Zang Ba found a step and sat down, looking lonely.

Yin Li, Sun Guan, and Wu Dun followed each other to find a place to sit down, and Chang Feng had no choice but to sit against the wall.

The people stopped talking, and the city fell silent.

I don't know how long it took, there was a thunderous sound outside the city, and the towers seemed to tremble slightly.

"Report, there are thousands of horse infantry troops coming straight to the city gate!"

Zang Ba and the others jumped up and went to the city wall to check.

I saw thousands of soldiers and horses marching towards the edge of the city, and there were three big flags in front of them, with the words "Liu", "Hua" and "Zhang" written on them. Followed by a large group of cavalry with bright armor and flashing swords, the same as the cavalry that sent Sun Guan and Wu Dun before, but the number was larger, estimated at about 1,000 people. The back were all foot soldiers, and in the smoke and dust, I couldn't see how many.

It was Liu Miao, Hua Mulan and Zhang Liao who came with 1,000 Yiding turquoise cavalry and 2,000 Yuan Rong crossbowmen, and nearly 1,000 Zang Ba army prisoners were also carried in the middle.

After Liu Miao instructed Zhang Liao and the others to set up a position, he asked Yan Yi to go to the city to shout.

"My father-in-law, Liu Taishou, please go out of the city to talk!"

There was no answer at the head of the city.

"My father-in-law, Liu Taishou, please go out of the city to talk!"

There was still no answer at the head of the city.

"After half an hour, if no one goes out of the city to talk, you will bear the consequences!" After speaking, Yan pulled the horse's head and returned to Liu Miao's side.

"It's so arrogant! Big brother, what should I do? At the head of the city, Chang Feng said angrily, and several other people also looked at Zang Ba.

"What else can I do? I went down to see Liu Miao, and I just happened to see what kind of magic he had. Zang Ba said lightly, at this time, he actually swept away his previous depression.

"No, big brother, if you go this time, won't you have to be slaughtered by others?" Chang Xuan Road.

Zang Ba shook his head and pointed to Liu Miaojun outside the city, at this time, the Yuanrong crossbowmen were placing rows of Yuanrong crossbows in front of the formation, and the Yiding Tucai was also lined up on his left and right.

Zang overbearing: "Do we still have a choice?" You see, that is to shoot our crossbows on the ship, and there are elite cavalry, and we can't go out of the city to fight against it, but only defend it. Not to mention whether we can hold the city or not, if the other side only besieges and does not attack, we will also be trapped to death. In addition, don't forget, there are thousands of brothers in Liu Miao's hands, should we ignore them? ”

"Why don't we defend the city and ask Tao Gongzu for help at the same time?" Yin Li said.

Zang Ba sneered, "Tao Gongzu? How could he send troops to rescue us and others, I'm afraid this is what he expected. Needless to say, I'll go down to see Liu Miao, and if you want to go over, you can also follow. Since Liu Miao proposed to let me wait to go out of the city to talk, he will not play tricks to ask for my life! ”

In the end, only Yin Li followed Zang Ba out, Sun Guan and Wu Dun were embarrassed because they had been captured before, and Chang Feng used the excuse of defending the city just in case. Zang Ba didn't force it, and walked out of the city gate empty-handed indifferently.

Liu Miao saw that Zang Ba had made up his mind so quickly, and came out without any defense, so he couldn't help nodding secretly, and then he took Mulan to urge the horse out of the battle, waiting for Zang Ba to come.
