"Yes, I heard that Zhou Cang is brave and unscrupulous, this time he came bravely, he will not be guarded, if he waits for Feng Yao's army to arrive, there will be no such a good opportunity!" Li Songdao. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Tong thought about it for a while, and finally snorted coldly: "If there is a father, there must be a son!" Tonight, I took the head of Zhou Cang's black guy to pay tribute to my brother! ”

Langling City, although it lost 3,000 troops in the last battle with Ji Ling, but in the past two days, some rout troops from Wufang and Yang'an have been collected, and the strength of the defense in the city is still maintained at about 15,000 people!

1. These fifteen thousand people, most of them are elite soldiers under Li Tong, if they defend Langling, it will not be difficult to defend it for a month.

A month later, in December, the weather will be even colder.

Tens of thousands of troops were stationed in the wilderness, and disease and cold alone would have caused a lot of attrition.

……

Xiangyang City, South County, Jingzhou

After Zhao Yan fled to Yingchuan, he persuaded Xun You and asked Liu Biao to send troops to help.

After Liu Biao received the envoy sent by Yingchuan Xunyou, he gathered to discuss: "Yuzhou Assassin Feng Yao and Yuan Shu have been unfavorable to my Jingzhou, and now Feng Yao is leading his troops to attack Li Tong, what should we do?" ”

Nanxiang County Taishou Kuai Yue said: "Since we have received Xun Yingchuan's invitation, it is justified that the lord should send troops!" Otherwise, if Yingchuan falls into the hands of Feng Yao, I am afraid that his next target will be Nanyang County! ”

Nanjun Taishou Cai Mao said: "The subordinates are also in favor of sending troops, but the lord had better send troops to Langling first, relieve the siege of Li Tong, contain the main force of Feng Yao's army through Li Tong, and then send troops to Yingchuan to help Xun You attack Runan from Yingchuan!" ”

Liu Biao said: "The gentlemen are reasonable, I think the two roads should go out together, Yingchuan." Langling is not to be lost! However, my Jingzhou is surrounded by enemies on three sides, and only Nanyang County can send troops to help. This is the other way, but I don't know who will be the best? ”

"Subordinates have a plan!" Kuai Yue's heart suddenly moved at this time, and he remembered something. Immediately into the words.

"What's the trick for Xenomorph?" Liu Biao asked.

"Shen Mi, Lou Fa, Gan Ning, etc. are all thieves, since the defeat and fled to Jingzhou, in the name of the lord, has been in Nanyang County as a prestige, forcibly levy money and grain, if the local officials are good to wait, send money and food slaves, if not, then order the corporal to loot and leave. Everywhere I went, the people were dissatisfied! ”

"Why don't you take this opportunity to order the three generals to send troops to Langling, so that they can be sent away, if they are defeated, it is gratifying, if they are killed by Feng Yao, it will be regarded as a harm to my Jingzhou, which is extremely beneficial to the reputation of the lord!" Kuai Yue Road.

Liu Biao agreed with Kuai Yue's plan and sent Nanyang Weiwen to lead 20,000 Nanyang soldiers out of Wancheng. After blocking Yang, passing through Ye County, and finally garrisoning in the ancient city of the south of Wuyang County, it is only separated by a Wushui from Xiping County of Runan County.

He also ordered Shen Mi, Lou Fa, Gan Ning and others to lead the soldiers and horses of the headquarters. Borrowed grain from Biyang, crossed Funiu Mountain, and aided Langling Li Tong.

……

Zhou Cang didn't know that Liu Biao had secretly sent troops. However, it did not prevent Zhou Cang from attacking Langling, and at this time, Liu Biao's two reinforcements had just set off. It will take three days to reach the Langling area at the earliest.

As soon as it was dark, Zhou Cang's soldiers secretly made several traps in front of the camp. And they took the snow from elsewhere that had not yet melted and covered it up.

He also made straw men and put them on cloth armor, and put them in various parts of the camp, pretending to be soldiers who were on night watch.

In the end, the army retreated a mile, re-established the camp, and ordered the archers to lie in wait for Li Tong to send troops to rob the camp!

At night, until the third watch, there was still no movement outside, and after waiting for another hour, when it was almost the end of the fourth watch, the soldiers really couldn't hold on, and they were in a state of distress.

Zhou Cang said: "Hold on for another hour, if the enemy still does not come to sneak attack after the fifth watch, it is not too late for me to go to rest again, if I go to sleep at this time, as soon as the enemy arrives, my head will not be protected!" ”

The soldiers were frightened, and their spirits were greatly lifted.

Just after the fourth watch and the fifth watch, the north gate, west gate, east gate, and three gates of Langling City were quietly opened.

In the darkness, the faint moonlight reflected the color of the snow, although it was impossible to see the distance, but the shadows within ten zhang were still vaguely discernible.

From the three gates of Langling City, each of them had a group of about 3,000 elite soldiers quietly out.

Facing the north gate of Langling, the closest army to the Zhoucang camp, led by Li Tong himself, these 3,000 soldiers were all composed of archers.

The west gate and the east gate were led by Li Song and Li Pan respectively, and were composed of sword and shield soldiers and pikemen.

These three gates and 9,000 soldiers are all elite soldiers, and on top of the city near the north gate, Li Tong also arranged 2,000 archers, if Zhou Cang dares to chase down the city, these archers can play a role.

Estimating that the appointed time had come, Li Tong laughed loudly, and ordered the archers who were lying outside the city gate to rush forward and shoot at the camp of Zhou Cang.

Three thousand soldiers, one wave of shooting is three thousand arrows, after three waves, it is nine thousand arrows, even if these nine thousand arrows hit half, it is enough to kill and injure more than four thousand enemies!!

At this time, Li Song and Li Fan's armies on the left and right sides suddenly came out, shouting loudly, and Li Tong hurriedly ordered the archers to retreat and retreat into the city, ready to wait for good news.

Zhou Cang was lying in the dark at this time, and when he saw Li Song and Li Fan's leading army rushing in, he was secretly happy in his heart, and immediately prepared with archers, but he was not allowed to make a sound.

At this time, suddenly the earth shook, and I saw that the enemy soldiers really stepped on the trap, and hundreds of people screamed and fell into the pit!

"Shoot !!!" Zhou Cang roared, and with a pull of the longbow in his hand, the first arrow was shot.

The arrow was a ringing arrow, with a whistling sound, and it suddenly pierced the night sky, which was extremely piercing.

"Kill!! Kill!! ”

All the archers in ambush roared in unison, and arrows in their hands shot in unison.

The rain of arrows fell, and Li Song and Li Fanjun, who robbed the camp, were in chaos, and hundreds of lives were taken away by arrows in the blink of an eye.

"Oh no! Hit the plan!! The enemy has an ambush! Evacuate, retreat to the north gate and enter the city! Li Song shouted.

At this time, Zhou Cangjun attacked another wave of arrow rain, but this time there was a defense, Li Songjun was already on guard, and he had already raised the big shield, and the arrow rain only took the lives of dozens of people.

The situation on Li Fan's side is similar to that of Li Song's side.

After three rains of arrows, it didn't have much effect, and the ambushed bows and arrows stopped firing as agreed.

Zhou Cang's subordinate generals led the infantry one after another, rushing out from everywhere, and the killing sound was several times louder than just now, as if tens of thousands of people were roaring at the same time.

This is also Zhou Cang's strategy, Zhou Cang's headquarters only has 10,000 soldiers, excluding miscellaneous labor and baggage, the elite soldiers are less than 5,000, if you don't shock Li Tong's soldiers with momentum, you really fight hard, maybe you will be defeated by Li Tong!

Sure enough, this roar, the sound of killing was everywhere, the fires were all over the field, and the flags were dense, not only Li Song and Li Pan were frightened, but Li Tong, who had just retreated into the city, was also startled, and exclaimed: "This must be Feng Yao's army has arrived!" It's not good, quickly order Li Song and Li Fan to quickly return to the city! (To be continued.) )
