Chapter 39: Yuan Shao did not hesitate to attack the city

As mentioned earlier, Chen Lin led the cavalry to aid Xujia Village, and met an immortal general, Xu Chu, Xu Zhongkang, the patriarch of Xu. After Chen Lin killed the rebels, he was introduced into the village by the patriarch, and the outside had his own soldiers and horses to clean up the battlefield, and Chen Lin and Zhang Ba entered the village with the old patriarch. Chen Lin only felt that the people in this village were different from other places, everyone here had a tiger's back and a bear's waist, a ruddy complexion, and walked like the wind and stood like a pine. The old patriarch saw the surprise of Chen Lin and the others, and smiled: "Xujia Village lives in this mountain, and there are thieves from time to time, so everyone in the clan practices martial arts, which is my Xu family rule." ”

Chen Lin sighed again, seeing Xu Chu's bravery, he loved it very much in his heart, and he had the intention to solicit him, and said: "I look at Xu Shao's patriarch, who is extraordinary in martial arts, and has the courage of ten thousand people, he is bound to be limitless, and it is not a pity to settle in a small village." The old patriarch's eyes did not move, knowing that Chen Lin understood the heart of love for talent, but Chen Lin had told him before that he was just a small county lieutenant and an assistant, where was it worthy of the Xu family. Xu Chu's loud voice sounded over there: "The old and young of a certain clan are here, and they don't want to leave, I hope Chen Gongzi will forgive me." ”

Chen Lin felt sorry in his heart, but he expected that if he had Yuan Shao's life experience, it would not be difficult, but he was just a little Chen family grandson, compared to Xu Chulai, it was also an average status, but he had an extra reputation of filial piety. Chen Lin knew that he couldn't recruit Xu Chu, a tiger general, so it was better to get along with him and see him in the future. Chen Lin and others rushed to help Xujia Village defeat the thieves, and Xujia Village naturally treated them well, and killed a few pigs, which made Chen Lin and others sigh that Xujia Village was rich. Xu Chu in Xujia Village led hundreds of tigers and wolves in this clan, and the county did not dare to collect more taxes, and there was no landlord oppression, and the thieves had no return, and Xujia Village worked hard, and naturally had enough food and clothing.

Chen Lin asked about what he saw Xu Chu pulling the oxtail on the mountain, it turned out that this time the old patriarch saw that there were too many bandits, and he was afraid that the casualties in the village would be too great, so he discussed with the thieves, and the village sent a cow and a few bags of grain, and the bandits retreated. didn't want to annoy Xu Chu, so he stepped forward to grab the tail of the ox and dragged the cow back, so he was about to compete with the thief, and it happened that Chen Lin came. This time, even Zhang Ba was respectful to Xu Chu and did not dare to be presumptuous.

Chen Lin and the others didn't dare to stay longer, Shenxian County was still confronting, and when everyone was full and rested for a while, they reluctantly retired, bid farewell to Xujia Village, and galloped away.

This time to aid Xujia Village, killed more than 600 enemies, self-inflicted more than 20 losses, and Zhang Ba Nursing Hospital is the most, it can be said that it is a complete victory, and it is only a day before and after even on the road, and everyone in Chen Lin's horse team has a head pinned to their waists. It's not that they rarely ask the court for credit, but Chen Lin Chengruo's 100 money, Chen Lin naturally won't break his promise.

When Yang Qiu and the others saw the heads piled up like a hill in Chen Lin's camp, and after listening to the guide's description, Yang Qiu's serious expression actually laughed: "Bo Zhi is good to kill, these untouchables, dare to resist the imperial court in vain, they should be killed." After speaking, he gave Chen Lin another words of encouragement. Chen Lin didn't know that Yuan Shao next to him had a different appearance in his heart, although Yuan Shao and Yang Qiu heard the same report, they thought of a different scene. Yuan Shao couldn't help but look down at the cavalry in Chen Lin's camp, thinking that the cavalry was so powerful, and he must have it.

Yuan Shao made up his mind to build his own cavalry, and had an infinite yearning for the three states of You, Hebei, and Liang, because the horses of the Han Dynasty were all from the three places, and Yuan Shao thought that he would have to ask for an official from these three places to be the one when he went back this time. It's just that Yuan Shao saw that Chen Lin was in the limelight, and he thought that the Yuan family, who was the fourth and third dukes, could not be left behind, so he stood up and said righteously: "Lord Yang, Bo Zhijian has made this great achievement, and he didn't want to fall behind at the beginning, please Lord and the last general, I will definitely take Shen County in a battle, exterminate the thieves, and return my Han Qingping." ”

Yang Qiu looked at the two young men in front of him, heroic, and his heart was also very happy, and when he saw Yuan Shao asking for battle, it was difficult to refuse, thinking that the city had been besieged for many days, and the anti-thieves in the city had gathered almost, the time had come, and it was time to attack. Yangqiu didn't want to waste more time here, compared to the rebellion in Jiujiang, Ge Po's thief leader had no foresight, and his eyes were narrow, and he really couldn't get into Yangqiu's eyes. Coming to Yuzhou to quell the chaos is just an opportunity for Yangqiu to make a comeback, he has to go back to Luoyang to have more important things to do, and the eunuch is the thief of the Han Dynasty.

So Yang Qiu ordered to lead 10,000 soldiers from the two counties and 500 imperial court troops to attack Shen County, take Wang Sheng's head, and Chen Lin was listening to the order. Yuan Shao got the sword, and immediately ordered the county Taishou to come to see him, and Zhao Qian and Chen Lin, a total of four people, discussed in the military tent. Chen Lin saw that Yuan Shaoxian's clothes were angry, so he was not majestic, and he was sitting on the main seat and ordered: "The Taishou of the county will lead 3,000 troops to attack the north gate tomorrow, and the Runan Taishou will attack the west gate when the troops are 3,000 Chen, Chen Lin led the horse team of the headquarters to ambush two miles outside the east gate, but a large group of anti-thieves appeared, and they were killed in the ambush, not one was left, the official led 4,000 county soldiers and 500 forbidden troops to attack the south gate, and everyone served the imperial court, and they spared no effort, but there was half a point of slackness, and the military law served. ”

"Order" Chen Lin and the three of them responded in unison. Chen Lin saw Yuan Shao's troops, majestic and calm, without losing the rules, surround three pouts, and secretly lay an ambush, Yuan Shao is not simple, he is worthy of being the son of the Yuan family of the third prince of the fourth world. Chen Lin received the military order and went straight out of the military tent and returned to the camp, and sent five teams of scouts to the east to inspect the terrain.

At dawn on the second day, soldiers and horses everywhere were busy making fires and cooking, and those who were well fed knew that the city was going to be attacked today. When there was still half an hour left, Chen Lin led his horse team to the east and ambushed in the dense forest two miles outside the city. Chen Lin only took Zhang Ba and Cai Yang and a few people, standing on the top of a high hill, wanting to see the situation in Shen County, but he only heard shouts and saw the closed east gate. Zhang Ba muttered: "It's clear that Yuan Ben didn't want us to make meritorious contributions, but he wanted to come here to make an ambush." ”

Chen Lin: "It's a lot of nonsense, it's for the sake of the overall situation, so it's better to arrange for me and other cavalry to attack the city?" Chen Lin and others are complaining, but this side of Shen County is fierce and abnormal, although Wang Sheng and his gang are just ordinary farmers, they can't afford to have a city wall, as long as they keep throwing stones and wooden blocks, they can smash the county soldiers who are besieging the city to cry for their fathers and mothers, and they will be killed at worst.

Yuan Shao held the horsewhip, his face was pale, this time the Han army did not have a large siege tower, only simple ladders and crashing wood. 2,000 people pressed up, and even the occasional climb on the wall was quickly killed, and the self-army suffered heavy casualties. Yuan Shao didn't feel sorry for these county soldiers, but he couldn't bear it, so he gave another order to the remaining 2,000 county soldiers behind him, and this time Yuan Shao pressed all the troops. Fighting against these little thieves, Yuan Shao didn't need to play any tactics at all, and he was not allowed to leave the rear army, and he was not worried that there would be thieves to attack his handsome banner.

Yuan Shao was completely attacking the city with the lives of the county soldiers, trying to storm the wall, and the wailing and wailing of the county soldiers under the wall could not attract Yuan Shao's attention at all, Yuan Shao just stared at the wall to see if there was any self-army attack. Yuan Shao knew that for the battle of Shenxian, the only obstacle was the city wall, as long as the city wall was no longer in danger, even if there were 20,000 thieves in the city, it would be vulnerable.

Yuan Shao watched the ladder keep people falling, and he didn't attack the wall for a long time, and turned around and shouted at Yan Liangwen: "Yan Liangwen is ugly" and "in" The two responded in unison. Yuan Shao seems to be about to suppress the forbidden army of the imperial court: "You two led four hundred forbidden troops to attack on the westernmost section of the city wall, and if you can't take it, come and see you." "I have to say that Yuan Shao still has a bit of vision, and he can see at a glance that this section of the city wall has begun to be chaotic, and at this time, Yan Liangwen and Chou two warriors will attack it in person, and the thieves will definitely not be able to support it.

With the foreshadowing of many county soldiers, Yan Liangwen and Chou can be regarded as the regular army of the imperial court, and how can it be compared with the county soldiers, and the arrows shot crookedly by the anti-thieves can't penetrate the iron armor of the Han army. Yan Liangwen took the lead, holding a big shield against the stones and wooden blocks that fell from above, but the people on the wall were helpless. Behind the two of them is also followed by the burly Han army, slowly going up step by step, not fast, but it is cold, if some experienced generals can see it, this is the real threat.

Yuan Shao smiled, and after a while, there was no longer a thief on this wall. Yuan Shao saw that the city gate was still banging against the city gate, and the waist-thick log hit the door, making a terrifying scream, but the city gate was unharmed. Yuan Shao waved his banner, withdrew the men and horses attacking the city gate, and instead attacked from the cloud ladder. Over there, Yan Liangwen and Chou lived up to expectations, and the two of them after the city wall, who could be the enemy. The distance of ten zhang was cleared in the blink of an eye, and one after another officers and soldiers went up to the wall. Yuan Shao shouted, the general trend has been decided.

As soon as the walls are broken, the gates are opened, which is also natural. Yuan Shao saw the city gate open, pulled out a big knife, and shouted: "The city gate has been broken, kill." "Unexpectedly, he took the lead and rushed straight to the city gate, it is undeniable that the young Yuan Benchu was also bloody and strong. When the soldiers saw that the Lord was so brave, their morale was greatly boosted, and they killed the thieves and retreated one after another, but where could they retreat.

Yuan Shao rushed into the city gate, saw the thieves cowering into the city, and hurriedly ordered: "Yan Liang led 300 people to the west gate, open the city gate from the inside to respond, Wen Chou led 300 soldiers to the north gate, also open the city gate, and let the officers and soldiers enter the city." The rest of the men and horses will storm the county government with Ben. Yuan Shao turned around and shouted loudly to the sergeant behind him: "Kill the enemy and make meritorious service, at this time, all the generals will kill with a certain person." "It is not an exaggeration to describe the situation at this time.

Yuan Shao led his troops to advance and saw the chaotic chaos of the anti-thieves, and he was overjoyed in his heart, and ordered the three armies to shout:

"Wang Sheng has been given the head, kneel down to avoid death."

"Wang Sheng has been given the head, kneel down to avoid death."

"Wang Sheng has been given the head, kneel down to avoid death."

With three loud bangs, the thieves in the city panicked, looking for the backbone of their hearts, but they didn't see it, and they were even more panicked. First one of them knelt down, and then one by one. At this time, the west and north of the city also shouted "kneel down to avoid death", Yuan Shao left people and horses to guard all the way, and went straight to the county government.
