Chapter 312 The attack on Jiangling Liu Qi was blocked, and Zhang Jincong was wounded to lure the enemy

The above book mentioned that Liu Qi and Wen Ping led an army of 50,000 out of Xiangyang and went straight to Jiangling, wanting to rescue Lingling by chance. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

As everyone knows, after Liu Cong took refuge in Sun Ce, all the generals in Jiangling were under the control of Jiangdong. And Liu Cong was also transferred to another place by Sun Ce to take away his power.

Jiangling guard Jin Xuan and Taishou Fan Rui strictly guarded the city, how could Liu Qi and Wen Ping be allowed to pass?

Liu Qi and Wen Ping then pressed the camp and sent soldiers to strictly prevent the enemy from attacking the camp, so they arranged for the army to rest as soon as possible to prepare for the attack on the city in the coming day.

Sure enough, although Jin Xuan is a resourceless and short-witted person, he is cowardly by nature and does not know how to make progress. In the past, under Liu Biao, he was the most incompetent person among the generals. This time, when he saw Liu Qi and Wen Ping coming to lead the troops, he discussed with Fan Rui to escape.

Fan Rui is a pro-Wu faction, how can he easily quit? He said righteously: "General Jin, I have heard for a long time that you are good at guarding the city, but now that the enemy army has just arrived, how can you retreat?" Could it be that when Wen Ping used to work with Jun in the past, he often bullied the general, so the general was afraid when he saw him? ”

As the saying goes, clay figurines are still three-third. Jin Xuan heard Fan Rui squeeze himself with such words, and thought again, Jiangling City is tall and strong, how can it be so easily broken? Then he said: "What Master Fan said is extremely true! So go down and arrange the city defense! ”

In order to save his life, Jin Xuan has a lot of experience in defending the city and escaping.

Let's say that the next day, Liu Qi and Wen Ping led the army under their command Wei Yan, Wang Ping, Wang Jun, Liu Pan, Guo Ming, and Zhang Wu to press the whole territory.

Jin Xuan on the city was forced by the momentum of the enemy, and his legs kept trembling under his battle robe, if it were not for the city wall to rely on, I am afraid that he would have sat on the ground.

His subordinates Gong Zhi and Pan Rui each guarded him, and after seeing Wen Ping in the army opposite, there was a little more nervousness on his face. After all, Wenpin is the number one general in Jingzhou, and which of those generals who worked together in the past would not weigh their ability and Wenpin in their hearts?

The army marched to half a mile from Jiangling City, and Liu Qi ordered the advance to stop. Wei Yan, the assault general under Wen Ping's command, asked for an order to attack the city.

Liu Qi glanced at the general who used to guard Fancheng with him, nodded and said: "Attacking the hometown today, the general has a lot of emotion in his heart!" The father died, the brother separated, this is the Qi family's business! However, today Qi obeyed his father's wishes to follow his uncle and take back his father's old land, and hoped that the generals would help. ”

"May I be driven by the general!" Wen Ping, Wei Yan, Wang Ping, Wang Jun, Liu Pan, and Guo Mingzhong said in unison.

"Qi would like to thank the generals in advance. Next, we'll attack this city! Liu Qi looked at the generals very excitedly, and then began to order the siege: "General Zhongye, you lead the men and horses of the headquarters to attack the West Gate; A certain commander of the headquarters attacked the north gate. What do you think? ”

"Whoa!" Although Wen Ping was also a cavalry general of the first division, he was once a general of Liu Qi's subordinates, so Liu Qi was the main force in this dispatch.

Wen hired troops to the west.

It is said that Liu Qi came straight to the north gate of Jiangling with 25,000 soldiers and horses. Less than a hundred feet away from the city gate, he made the army line up, drove his horse to the front of the city alone, and shouted: "General Jin Xuan, my father was not kind to you in the past, why not take this opportunity to return to the Han Dynasty?" A certain will speak well for you before the Son of Heaven. ”

Jin Xuan in the city was about to answer, but was stopped by Fan Rui. Fan Rui took the bow and arrow from the soldier next to him, aimed at Liu Qi and shot it. Seeing this, Liu Qi turned his horse back to the battle.

Liu Qi's assault general Zhang Wu stepped forward to ask for an order.

Liu Qi then ordered Zhang Wu to command 5,000 soldiers of the First Regiment to build a ladder, push a heavy hammer, and launch an offensive; He also ordered the guerrilla general Liu Pan to command the soldiers of the second regiment to reorganize their crossbows and shoot the soldiers in the city.

Due to the anxious departure, Liu Qi did not carry large engineering weapons, such as catapults and other slow-moving guys. As a result, they were much less effective at attacking the city.

Seeing the enemy soldiers pushing the ladder to attack the city, Jin Xuan began to show a smile on his solemn face, and whispered to the soldiers to prepare to roll the wood and stones.

Although the enemy is on both sides, the West City Gate is guarded by Fan Rui with troops, presumably Jiangling will be fine for a while! Jin Xuan looked at Liu Qi and couldn't help but smile dumbly: "Eldest son, you are still a little tender!" How could such a siege be able to break through Gangneung?

Suddenly, Jin Xuan found a burst of hundreds of large arrows whistling in, and was so frightened that he hurriedly crouched under the arrow stack. When the rain of arrows had passed, he looked back and saw the four-foot arrow that had penetrated the wall, and shouted with trepidation: "Watch out for the enemy's arrows!" ”

Gong Zhi and Pan Rui helped him up and said, "General, let's go to the back to rest, and the two of us will supervise the formation here." ”

Jin Xuan then climbed into the tower of the city wall, leaving Gong Zhi and Pan Rui to supervise the formation.

The Han army's crossbow only attacked three or five times, shooting and killing hundreds of Jiangling soldiers; As the ladders of the besieging Han army set up the city wall, the crossbow stopped firing.

Seeing the cloud ladder and battering ram soldiers approaching the city, Gong Zhi commanded the soldiers to shoot arrows to kill the Han army that climbed; Penry directs his soldiers to shoot logs and rocks to smash ladders and battering rams.

Under the leadership of the battalion commander, the soldiers of the Han army held iron shields and swords in their mouths, and climbed up without fear of death. The soldiers with bows and arrows were also constantly shooting back at the city.

For a time, the sound of slashing and slashing in the city, the sound of arrows, and the sound of falling from a high place came and went; Blood continued to flow from the human body, gradually dyeing the moat red......

Finally, a Han commander ascended the city wall, and another ......; Seeing this, Gong Zhi led troops to come up to block the attack. After all, the Jiangling soldiers in the city accounted for the majority, and soon all the Han troops who landed in the city were killed.

Liu Qi saw that the 5,000 elite soldiers had suffered countless casualties, so he asked Zhang Wu to sound the gong and withdraw the troops.

At this time, Wen Ping sent someone to report to him, saying that the enemy's defense was tight and difficult to break, and asked for a temporary retreat. Liu Qi looked at his side and knew that if the city was attacked like this, I don't know when, I don't know how many people will die here? Then he said to the herald: "Inform the three armies, return to the camp for the time being!" ”

The Han army then retreated to the camp.

After returning to the camp, Liu Qi sent people to Xiangyang to ask for heavy siege weapons.

Speaking of the northern battlefield, Zhao Yun, the king of Yu, fought with Ma Chao repeatedly, and found that Ma Chao's martial arts were extraordinary and his marksmanship was outstanding, so he had a good impression and did not want to kill him.

That night, after the two said goodbye to the battlefield, Zhao Yun and the generals returned to Dazhai. Zhao Yun asked Xu Shu, the right prime minister, and Chen Gong, the former imperial historian: "This king has fought with Ma Chao repeatedly, knowing that his martial arts are superb and his marksmanship is outstanding, and he loves talent and doesn't want to hurt his life." Therefore, he is reluctant to use desperate marksmanship. I wonder what the two of them have to plan to capture the king? ”

Chen Gong looked at the Jingshui River on the sand table, bowed his head and pondered. Seeing this, Xu Shu said with a smile: "Does the public platform have to be designed by the Jingshui River?" ”

When Chen Gong heard this, he raised his head and said with a smile: "Could it be that Brother Yuan has other high opinions?" ”

"Definitely! Gongtai has a unique eye, so why not let this credit go to you? Xu Shu said with a smile.

Chen Gong did not refuse, and said: "Thank you Yuan Zhizhi for your love." Lord, the palace thinks that tomorrow's battle should send someone else to fight! ”

When Zhao Yun heard this, he was very displeased, so he asked, "What does Lord Gongtai mean by this?" ”

"The prince doesn't know, Ma Chao is a person with superb martial arts, how can he be captured easily? If you want to Chen Bingjing River, you need to be defeated and cause you to enter the ambush circle. Chen Gong then kept the area of the Jingshui River and explained, "The prince is a royal nobleman, if he lures the enemy in person, he will ruin his reputation!" ”

After listening to this, Zhao Yun's face improved a little: "This ......"

At this time, Xue Ji and Zhang Xiu got up at the same time to ask for an order: "The last general is willing to fight for the prince!" ”

Zhao Yun saw that the two of them asked for orders at the same time, so he said, "Very good." Tomorrow, Jin Cong will fight for the king. Rensheng accompanied the king to wait for Ma Chao there. ”

Zhang Xiu then received the order.

The next day, Zhang Xiu led 5,000 elite soldiers to the front of the enemy city, but saw that Ma Chao had already led the troops to wait in front of the city.

Ma Chao saw a sentry of men and horses rushing out of the enemy's camp, headed by a general, wearing a wolf-swallowing black iron helmet, wearing iron and black forged armor, a jet-black iron spear in his hand, and sitting on an oolong horse. It's vaguely familiar, but I can't remember which one?

I saw that the general laughed and said jokingly: "Ma Mengqi, don't come to be harmless after a long time?" Little brother Zhang Xiu is polite! ”

Yes!? Zhang Xiu, the former Northland Gun God? Twenty years ago, he fought with him for several days in a row, and he didn't know whether he won or lost?

"I didn't expect you to take refuge in General Zhenguo." Ma Chao said stupidly.

"In the past, an uncle took refuge in today's Taishang, so he has today's status! Meng Qi, why bother resisting? Just imagine that your father has only 100,000 soldiers and horses, how can he be the enemy of millions of soldiers and horses in the Han Dynasty? The Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty sent one of the seven kings, King Chitose of Yu, to lead the army to conquer Ru and others, in order to defeat Eastern Wu and Northern Qi and pacify the border falls! Zhang Xiu lobbied Ma Chaoyan.

"If you can defeat me, why not return to the Han Dynasty?" Ma Chao put on a look that as long as you can win, I can say anything.

Zhang Xiu saw that Ma Chao was like this, so he waved the iron gun and said: "Since this is the case, let's fight!" ”

There was an inexplicable smile on the corner of Ma Chao's mouth, and he waved his gun and fought.

A pair of young rivals twenty years ago, after twenty years of separation, the two of them fought again. As I get older, my marksmanship has become more proficient, but the only thing that hasn't changed is the black carbon against a red firework.

In the past, chess met opponents, and today it will meet good talents. In the blink of an eye, more than two hundred rounds passed. More than 300 rounds have passed, 350 rounds have passed......

Suddenly, Zhang Xiu let out an "oops", the big gun in his hand fell to the ground, and he fled.

Ma Chao felt that a shot had smashed on Zhang Xiu's big gun at that time, and the force felt a little solid, but he didn't expect Zhang Xiu to be injured. He inadvertently looked down and found a string of blood on the ground, following the direction of Zhang Xiu's escape.

He's really hurt!

Ma Chao thought about it, and rode the horse to catch up.

Seeing Zhang Xiu lying on the back of the horse from afar, Ma Chao was even more sure of the fact that Zhang Xiu was injured. As for why Zhang Xiu was injured? Ma Chao didn't have time to think about it at all, or he didn't think about it at all. just blindly wanted to catch up with Zhang Xiu and capture him alive......
