Yang Zhai Chengtou, Xiahoudun is not easy. △，

Cao Cao's army stationed troops in Xuchang, and if he didn't send a soldier or a pawn to help, this Yang Zhai could only rely on him Xiahoudun to lead 10,000 soldiers to hold on.

The Sizhou army besieged the city and attacked it fiercely, and after nearly ten days of fierce fighting, many of the four city walls collapsed, more than half of the army was damaged, and there was no foreign aid left and right, and the morale was already very low. If it weren't for the concerted efforts of all the big clans in the city to help defend the city, this Yangzhai City would have fallen long ago.

Seven years ago, taking the opportunity of Zhu Jun's expedition, Li Dao and other Xiliang troops swept away Yingchuan Chenliu County, Yingchuan was the most injured, the people of the Hao clan were ten rooms and nine empty, and many celebrities fled to Jingzhou, and Cao Cao ruled for several years, so he had to slowly recover some vitality. As the seat of Yingchuan governance, Yang Zhai has more than ten large families who have returned and newly resettled in the city, and they are afraid that the Sizhou army will enter the city, and they will work together to gather nearly 20,000 people from the Qu tribe to help Xiahou defend the city.

With this lot of help, although he has received Cao Cao's secret order and knows about the changes in Liangzhou, Xiahoudun can lead the cavalry to break through at any time, as long as Cao Cao's main force is not damaged, it will not hurt to let this Yangzhai City be given to Deng Mu'an, but he Xiahoudun is not willing to do so.

Sizhou's soldiers are the world's first-class elite, but the advantage they can take in the siege war is not big, there are Ma Chao and others to make trouble in Liangzhou, Yang Zhai every day is consumed, Deng Ji's strength is damaged by one more point!

In such a situation, Deng Ji is still obsessed with Yang Zhai, which is not advisable for any wise man!

In Xiahoudun's mind, the morale of the Sizhou army should also be low, if Deng Ji can always be turned away from the city, so that the Sizhou army will be disgraced and retreated, and it will be a key battle for several families to take Sizhou, and then the Cao and Deng families should eliminate each other's strengths, and the situation will only become more and more favorable to Cao Cao.

As the first general in the Cao camp. Xiahoudun had to stick to this Yang Zhai no matter what.

Inside the city. He repeatedly sent scribes to explain the relationship among the major clans. Expose the harm of the fourth-class people's policy, and squeeze out the last trace of strength of the wealthy clans; The ordinary people in the city also distributed military rations and persuaded the people to go up to the city wall to help.

Squeezed out the last trace of energy in his Xia Houdun, this Yang Zhai Cheng finally had to hold on to today.

It's just that after nearly ten days of fierce fighting, Deng Jijun outside the city has never reduced any of the generals' flags, and has not seen any people and horses evacuate.

They still refuse to retreat? Is it Deng Ji's unresourceful people?

Could it be that the saying that Xiliang is in turmoil is not true? Or the rebellion has been quickly put down. Don't need Deng Ji to send troops to Liangzhou again? Don't worry about the battle of the party?

Although it has been heard several times that Ma Chao, Han Sui and others have rebelled in the rear of Deng Ji, affecting the entire Liangzhou, the three strong armies of Sizhou who are fighting steadily under the city are not discouraged and refuse to back down at all, but they make Xiahoudun uncertain.

Could it be that Deng Mu'an was still delusional at this time to lure out Cao Caotun's army in Xuchang again?

Or is there any new change in the situation that you still don't know?

Among all kinds of speculations, there is a faint sense of pride: the time is almost there, but there is no movement in the Sizhou army!

In the past, the Sizhou army began to attack the city at the time of the festival. By this time, there have been at least two sieges!

Could it be that Deng Ji's withdrawal is today? Do you want to make a contribution at home?

Regardless of Xiahoudun's various speculations. The sun rose overhead, and then slowly moved westward, and time passed little by little, and there were only scouts in the Sizhou military camp outside the city from time to time to go out and return, but there were no horses!

After a few days of fierce battles, suddenly a rare day of tranquility, there was more than one Xiahoudun on the head of the city, seeing that Deng Ji's army was no longer attacking the city, obviously something had changed, and more and more sergeants and even ordinary people began to get excited.

This must be a precursor to Sizhou's retreat!

Or, the morale of the army collapsed, and Deng Ji began to be unable to suppress it?

In all kinds of excitement and discussion, it was not until it was close to dusk that there were only a few horns sounding in the military camp under the city, and two military flags were slowly left of the camp outside the west and south outside the city, and then followed by the two armies.

The siege was damaged for a few days, behind the Dangkou military flag, there were very few people following, Che Huang Guoyi was not there, at this time, in addition to the wounded soldiers, there were only four or five thousand horsemen left, and there were nearly seven thousand behind the Xiaocai military flag.

It's just that the pawns in these two strong armies, everyone on horses, this is not the appearance of attacking the city.

Xiahoudun's heart was relieved, and he was suddenly tightened: the Sizhou army did not pack up the camp and gather the wounded soldiers, this is not a retreat, nor is it a siege, so what to do?

With the roar of the iron cavalry, the Dangkou army bypassed the southwest city gate; The cavalry army bypassed the south city gate, and the horse's head was all east.

Orient?

Xiahou hurriedly went down the city wall, beat his horse and galloped to the east city gate, and then waited for the city tower to look to the east.

Ten miles east of the city, there was already smoke and dust.

What's changed?

After waiting anxiously for a while, clusters of surging heads began to appear at the end of the line of sight, and then more and more people and horses, until the black pressure was overwhelming, and it was roughly estimated that there were no less than ten thousand and five thousands, and after a while, they all lined up and walked in the direction of Yang Zhai.

Soon, the sergeants stationed on the eastern wall all cheered.

"Cao Gong! Cao Gong! ”

You don't need to carefully identify the several flags that are very familiar in the front line, just look at the rushing army from a distance, there are very few cavalry, the equipment is barely neat, but it is not the long halberd used by Sizhou, and the armor is only five or six out of ten, you can know that it is definitely not Sizhou soldiers and horses.

In this direction, at this time, in this place, it must be our own reinforcements!

The morale of the army, which had been low for several days, suddenly boosted at this time!

It's just that at this moment, why did Cao Cao change his original intention and send troops to help? Isn't he afraid that the field battle will be taken by Deng Ji?

Xiahoudun was half happy, half confused.

It's just that Sizhou Dangkou Xiao rode two strong armies, and the whole team had already marched eastward, rumbling and galloping to meet them.

On the city wall, Xiahoudun was nervous, how could Cao Jun fight with the Sizhou Army in the field? The two iron cavalry rushed down, how many men and horses could be left of their own reinforcements?

It's just that after a while, several small groups of knights in the reinforcement array have rushed out, shouting something in unison, and roaring past the two Sizhou horses.

Far away, Yang Zhai Chengtou couldn't hear what he was shouting, but under the gaze of a pair of eyes, the pace of the two Sizhou horses clashing forward became slower and slower, and in the end, they all slowly stopped.

The cavalry teams that shouted did not stop, galloping back and forth around Sizhou, still shouting along the way.

It won't take long. On the city wall, I actually saw two Sizhou iron cavalry world-famous elite divisions. Many people in the team began to exchange words. The formation gradually dispersed.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of scolding and noisy discussions from the Sizhou military generals also faintly spread to the city wall, and several horsemen rushed to Deng Jizhong's military office, which should be a report.

After a few laps, a group of cavalry members who shouted and shouted non-stop from the friendly army finally threw off the Sizhou army and rushed to the foot of Yangzhai City, shouting at the head of Yingdong City: "Yuan Shao broke the party." The army has entered Hedong Hanoi! ”

The soldiers of the Cao army who heard it close to the left cheered, and after a while, Xiahoudun had also heard it, and he was immediately surprised and happy.

The ranks of the city shouted twice, and one of the knights bent his bow and shot an arrow with a "whoosh".

There was a letter tied to the arrow, and the sergeant hurriedly picked it up and sent it, and Xiahoudun took a look, only to see the book "Urgent!" At the beginning of this month, the sixteenth broke the party, and the army has entered Hanoi and Hedong! Wait for the Sizhou army to report the chaos. Yuan Rang and Zixiao attacked back and forth, and a self-led tiger and leopard rode to assault! This battle is to collect the defeated troops of Sizhou and fill our army. Don't let them run away! ”

"I don't want to make meritorious contributions at the beginning, and the foot soldiers who are fighting against the Sizhou Army in front of me are led by Cao Ren? Meng De personally led the tiger and leopard to ride outside? Yes, his scouts are far away, and they must have already been reported, and the Taishi Ci Huya Army has not moved, which is to prevent Mengde! ”

"Yecheng has received a good report to my Yanzhou, and it will be one or two days faster than Sizhou!"

Xiliang rebelled, the morale of the Sizhou army must have been low, and then heard that the party was defeated, and Hanoi and Hedong were invaded, wouldn't everyone in the army think of returning? How can Deng Muan fight our army again?

In the past, Dong Zhuo was punished, Li Dao and others attacked Chang'an in order to survive, and with a wave of their arms, 200,000 Xiliang troops suddenly gathered; However, in just a few years, Li Dao and Guo Yan killed each other, and the army was rampant, and in a few months, hundreds of thousands of Xiliang elite soldiers disappeared!

No matter how strong you are, you have to watch the situation and watch the situation, Siliang Erzhou is in chaos and chaos, Deng Muan can still turn the tide?

The situation on the battlefield suddenly reversed, and Xiahoudun was already overjoyed for a while, and although the handwriting on the letter looked like Cao Cao's handwriting, it was only seven or eight points similar, and there was no seal to corroborate it.

At this time, he only wanted: The Sizhou army will be defeated in this battle, and we will definitely capture more elites in its army!

Hurriedly ordered the army to quickly move away the mud and stone giant trees blocking the city gate, and the army prepared to go out of battle.

At the Deng Ji barracks, the Black Iron Guard Huya Army had all mounted their horses, and there were also heralds galloping towards Dangkou Xiaoqi to give orders.

The reinforcements in the distance wanted to wait for the Yangzhai defenders to leave the city and stand still.

After a long while, they didn't pick up the station, and the two armies of Sizhou Dangkou Xiao and the cavalry were even more scattered.

The two old auxiliary soldiers led the horses and mixed out of the queue, and the heads gathered together, and they were "talking in panic" according to the tasks assigned above.

"Phew! If General Wei's plan fails, won't our army be in chaos? ”

"Xu Beijia and the three generals are all good at what they say, why do I need to worry too much? This time the Nanyang army came to help, it was a surprise for us and others, how did Xiahou Yuanrang see through? ”

"Yes! Only Xiahou has not yet left the city, and a certain person is anxious! ”

"Don't worry! Don't worry! Soon! ”

In the midst of the discussion between the two, the horn of the bull in the army came, and it turned out that Xiahoudun had begun to go out of the city, and the "enemy army" on the opposite side was killed, and the army ordered to retreat.

This escape and pursuit, the Sizhou army team is even more scattered, but the soldiers of the other army are all riding, and it is very easy to escape, Xiahou is in a hurry, so the sergeant quickly went out of the city, and was bent on blocking the back road of Kou Xiao's cavalry.

It's just that Xiahou couldn't line up in time, so he only ordered the cavalry to step forward, and the infantry to follow, and as soon as the "rout" was engaged, there were a few horns in the Sizhou army, and the soldiers under the two armies suddenly changed their expressions, and then there was an infinite murderous aura.

Even the "Cao Army" on the opposite side also changed direction and rushed towards Xiahou Xuan's department, and when he rode first, he had a long arm and big ears, and shouted loudly at the real Cao Jun: "Xiahou Yuanrang, do you know a certain Liu Xuande?" ”

Deng Jijun besieged Yang Zhai, which lasted nine days, and the danger could not be overcome. Fortunately, Liu Bei was benevolent and righteous, and led troops from Nanyang to help, and the two sides secretly agreed that Liu Beijun changed to Cao Jun's costume and came from the east by detour, so that Xiahou could go out of the city and successfully break the enemy in one fell swoop.

Under the siege of the Sizhou army, there was news that Liu Bei's army had entered Yingchuan, and he could not reach Yangzhai City.

It was a service, and Xiahoudun had to flee back to Xuchang with more than ten horses, and the rest were broken. After Deng Ji took Yang Zhai, he ordered all the households in the city to be forcibly relocated to Henan, so as to boast of his martial arts to his subordinates.

To return to Henan, Deng Ji left Zhao Yun to lead the cavalry to defend Liang County, and asked Liu Beijun to be stationed in Luyang County, the northernmost part of Nanyang County, to defend Cao Cao with the two of them.

After the forcibly relocated people were calmed down, they sent Cao Xing and Gong Du to aid Liangzhou, Xu Huang led the rest of the Kou army to guard Luoyang with Tian Feng, and Deng Ji himself went north with Xu Shu Taishi Ci to aid the Shangdang. (To be continued......)
