Chapter 323: Rushing to cross the river and storm fiercely

Leading an army of 10,000, the king crossed the Quyang River non-stop. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoAt this time, it is the season when spring flowers are blooming and everything is recovering, but Julu County is still dry and rainless, and the water of the Quyang River is only waistless, and the water can be passed by wading, so 10,000 horses have not been hindered in any way, and they have come to the bank of the Yutuo River smoothly.

There are two rivers between Xiaquyang and Wuji, one is the Quyang River, and the other is the Qiutuo River. Compared with the former's calm waves, this Yutuo River is turbulent. This is also the wonder of nature, Xiaquyang is dry and rainless, and the adjacent Wuji is smooth in wind and rain.

King Qu Shuai stood by the river with his horse, looking at the torrent and concentrating into the distance, there was no ferry boat on the south bank of the Yutuo River, and his eyebrows couldn't help but twist into a big bump.

Why are all the ships that travel back and forth on weekdays now gone? Actually, this is not surprising, as long as you think about it, you will understand why.

Xiaquyang was captured by Zhang Bao, and more than 100,000 thieves were gathered, and this news had already grown wings, and it drifted to Wuji in an instant. The wealthy businessmen represented by Zhen Yi in the city were all frightened when they heard this news, they knew that the Yellow Turban Army might arrive at any time, and they were already like ants on a hot pot, and they were restless.

Zhongshan has nearly 10,000 soldiers, but less than half of them are stationed in Lunu, and the rest are scattered to more than ten county towns, and there are less than 500 soldiers and horses spread out in Wuji, and they are negligent in training and have no combat effectiveness at all. pinning his net worth and life on this group of soldiers, the result can be imagined.

After some deliberation, everyone reached a consensus that the government was incompetent and could only protect itself. The first is to become a militia group, and the merchants and wealthy men have funded the recruitment of young men and trained them into an army to guard the city. The second is to collect and destroy the boats along the coast, so that the Xutuo River can become a real natural barrier.

The king was so angry that he gave orders to his soldiers to look for boats along the river. A few hours later, a dozen small boats were finally brought from the Quyang River. Each ship can only transport a few people, and one batch cannot reach 100 people, which is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket for this 10,000-person team.

"Cross the river!" Under the temptation of the money beauty, nothing is difficult, Wang Yong gritted his back molars and conveyed the order with a wave of his big hand.

"I said, Brother Wang, don't you want to take the lead? Why is it so slow? The boat came and went more than ten times, and it took more than 1,000 soldiers and horses to cross, Wang Yong was staring at the luck of the Xutuo River, but he didn't expect a familiar voice to come from behind him.

"Brother Zhao? Why are you here too? Wang Yong looked at Zhao Fan who was standing behind him with a look of surprise on his face, as if he was afraid that he would snatch the treasure in his hand.

"Brother Tai was blocked by the Yutuo River, and the general of the land was very unhappy when he learned about this, so he had to ask the younger brother to come for reinforcements." Zhao Fan said with a smile.

What about the crooks? It's not that you look at the gold and silver treasures salivating, and you are juggling right and wrong in front of the general of the earth, the king knows it with his heart, but he is better than saying it, and he reluctantly smiled and said: "The king is powerless, and with Brother Zhao's help, it is no better." ā€

Seeing that Wang Yong was smiling very reluctantly, Zhao Fan naturally knew that he was duplicitous, but he also laughed it off.

There are only a dozen small boats, and the soldiers and horses used to transport the king are still insufficient, and there are more than 10,000 people out of Zhao Fan, isn't it enough to draw snakes?

Wang Yong thought like this, he looked at Zhao Fan with a wicked smile, waiting to see his joke. But to the surprise of Wang Yong, I saw Zhao Fan wave his hand: "Brothers, set it up for me!" ā€

As if by juggling, the soldiers pulled out more than a dozen boats, and more of them were made of wood, and as they were lowered into the river one by one, they were connected into strings with iron cables, and then laid with wooden planks, and a pontoon bridge crossed the river.

Wang Yong looked stupid, he, a child who grew up in the mountains, where had he seen this! Seeing Zhao Fan's soldiers and horses quickly passing through the pontoon bridge, it only took a quarter of an hour to transport more than his brothers in two hours. Envy, jealousy and hatred come to my heart together, but I can only watch from the wall.

Zhao Fan was very proud, he looked at Wang Yong with a depressed face, humming a small tune from his hometown, and his expression was very proud.

"Brother Wang, junior brother will go first, let's see you in the city!" Time flies, less than half an hour, most of it has passed, Zhao Fan waved his hand with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and in Wang Yong's jealous gaze, he flew on the pontoon.

must not fall behind Zhao Fan, angered by the other party's smugness, Wang Yong couldn't take care of the brothers, he jumped on the ferry, and shouted: "Hurry up!" ā€

How can the boat have the speed of horses, and when Wang Yong pedaled onto the north shore, Zhao Fan had already led the leading army to disappear.

"Quick, run forward!" Wang Yong led nearly 2,000 people, and he was not far behind, urging him to rush wildly.

Zhao Fan was non-stop before rushing to the Yutuo River, and Wang Yong waited for work with ease, resting for several hours, who was superior in physical strength and who was inferior in physical strength of the two armies, and after a contest, the winner was divided.

Wang Yong led two thousand men and horses, and finally surpassed Zhao Fan, and he threw down a sentence triumphantly: "Brother Zhao, let's see you again in Wuji City." ā€

This sentence made Zhao Fan so angry that his face turned purple, and he scolded: "Waste, it's all ****** waste!" ā€

But Wang Yong soon couldn't laugh anymore, and in his opinion, it was as easy as digging into a bag. Who would have thought that after coming to the city, he realized that he was wrong, underestimated the ability of the defenders, not only did not abandon the city and fled, but was met with stubborn resistance.

"Wuji City is full of gold, whoever grabs it first will be whoever, brothers, give me a hard beating!" With a shout, the king shouted, and the Yellow Turban army was immediately demoralized and swarmed towards the city.

The city wall is not high, and it is in disrepair, although Zhen Yi and others recruited the civilian army and repaired it, but the time was in a hurry, and only some weak points were repaired, and the Yellow Turban Army was quickly killed.

In the face of the low Wuji City, the Yellow Turban Army marched forward bravely, competing for the first place, desperately climbing upward. The people in the city are all civilian troops, and they have just been established, after a short period of training, they have no combat experience, and in the face of the crazy rebel army, it is inevitable that there will be a phenomenon of retreat and flight.

Fortunately, he was condescending, and prepared a lot of wood and boulders, and threw them for a while, temporarily suppressing the momentum of the Yellow Turban Army.

"Kill those who retreat!" Wang Yong saw the weakness of the defenders, as long as he rushed a few more times and consumed the rolling wood and stones, those people's troops who had not fought much would scatter in a hurry.

But Wang Yong thought wrongly, when he was triumphant and led the soldiers to attack fiercely, he suddenly felt a little strange, how did this city become orderly, and the attack and defense were measured.

And those new faces are full of murderous spirits, each with bright armor, and the cold light of the swords and guns is shining, giving people an inexplicable coercion. (To be continued.) )
