Chapter 111 Kong Ling died of depression Zhao Yun easily won the city
In other words, there is really no trick fresh, and the tactics of eating the side sky, along with the fried. The exposure of the technique of breaking the door, this trick is no longer good.
Zhao Yun led the troops to Xiangyang, and the pioneer Wei Yan reported that the four gates of Xiangyang City were blocked by the defenders with stones!
Liu Biao led the troops to withdraw, and Kong Ling knew; Xiangyang City is his last place of refuge, this city was repaired by Liu Biao behind the high wall, if the city gate is blocked with stones, the explosion of King Yan. The Bullet Door Technique will be ineffective.
As long as the grain and grass in the city are endless, such a high city, there are not tens of thousands of lives at the bottom, it is impossible to attack it, King Yan is known as a soldier like a son, depending on whether you are willing to attack the city with the lives of the soldiers.
Outside the city, Zhao Yun and Xi Zhicai discussed countermeasures, and the two finally decided to build Jinglan and use crossbow arrows to suppress the defenders, first hit the enemy's morale, and then wait for an opportunity to attack the city.
At the same time, Xi Zhicai came up with a divisive plan, and ordered the soldiers to shoot a book into the city, and the book said: Those who surrender out of the city will not be blamed in the past. Those who open the city gate will be rewarded with 100 gold and promoted to the third rank. Those who kill Kong Ling will be rewarded with a thousand gold, and the official will be promoted to three levels.
Zhao Yun ordered people to build Jinglan and Yunti, and at the same time sent troops to surrender the nearby county seats, and three days later, hundreds of Jinglan were manufactured!
Zhao Yun sent crossbowmen, ascended to Jinglan, and officially launched an attack on the defenders of Xiangyang.
Kong Ling was right, Liu Kun really cherished the lives of his soldiers, including the generals under Liu Kun, who had been with Liu Kun for a long time, and also attached great importance to the lives of his soldiers. It can reduce casualties, and will never trade the lives of soldiers for victory.
In Xiangyang City, since Kong Ling knew the content of the persuasion letter, he was like a person who suspected his neighbor of stealing an axe, looking at everyone as if he was going to rebel, and everyone looked like he wanted to take his life in exchange for wealth.
Kong Ling is very old and in poor health. In history, he died shortly after the princes begged Dong, and now he is suspicious, sleepless all night, and his spirit is getting worse and worse.
On the morning of the fifth day, Kong Ling came to the city wall to watch the battle. When he walked down the steps, he suddenly fell into a trance, rolled down the steps and fell to his death.
The defenders in the city are dumbfounded, the lord has fallen to his death, what should we do?
When even the spiritual guards raised the banner of surrender, they ordered their subordinates to remove the stones blocking the door and welcome King Yan's army into the city.
Outside the city, Xi Zhicai and Zhao Yun were discussing; Is it an immediate siege? Or use the Jinglan bow and crossbow to demoralize the defenders and wait for their morale to be low?
Subordinate to Bao: Kong Ling died. The defenders of Xiangyang surrendered in Kaicheng!
The two were surprised, what kind of shit luck did this give, good luck against the sky, right?
After Zhao Yun's army entered the city, he talked about the reward for meritorious deeds and asked about the cause of Kong Ling's death!
Kong Ling's command descended to the general: After the persuasion letter flew into the city, Kong Ling became suspicious and suspicious, and did not sleep for five days, so that his spirit was not good. Fall off the city wall and fall to your death!
The generals under Zhao Yun secretly despised Kong Ling; Do you dare to come out and dominate the world?
Compared with Zhao Yun's bad luck, Zhang Fei's task can be described as very unsmooth.
Zhao Yun successfully found Wei Yan. However, Zhang Fei did not find Chen to Chen Shuzhi in Yuan Shu's army in Runan.
Zhao Yunbing took Nanyang bloodlessly, and then won Xiangyang without injuring anyone, and Zhang Fei encountered a strong enemy - Cao Cao in the first battle.
Cao Cao, Liu Dai, Zhang Miao and others went south to Yangzhou, but Liu Miao did not leave them in Jiangnan, but sent Cao Cao and Zhang Miao to Jiangbei.
Cao Cao was appointed as the Taishou of Jiuyang County. Gather troops in Jiuyang to resist the southward movement of Yanwang's troops.
Zhang Miao was appointed as the Taishou of Lujiang County, stationed troops in Lujiang, and resisted the southward movement of King Yan, and the two became Liu Miao's first line to resist King Yan.
Although Liu Miao opposed Liu Kun's claim to be king. However, he also knew that in the land of Jiangbei, the Yangzhou army was not Liu Kun's opponent, and the two counties of Jiangbei were handed over to Cao Cao and Zhang Miao, and they were used as waste, which was better than throwing them away in vain.
The main thing is that Liu Miao is very jealous of Cao Cao, his eldest brother Liu Dai, a dignified assassin of a continent, is now obedient to Cao Cao's words, so can he pay it back?
And Xu Shao Xu Zi's criticism of Cao Cao: the capable minister who rules the world and the hero of the troubled times is known to the world.
Judging from Cao Cao's performance at this time, there is no appearance of a capable minister who governs the world, and in troubled times, instead of being suspicious around him, it is better to send him to Jiangbei and go to resist Liu Kun, the king of Yan.
As for Changsha Sun Jian, Liu Miao didn't take him too seriously! No matter how powerful Sun Jian is, he is just a county guard. The territory in Liu Xuan's hands is much larger than that of Sun Jian, plus the 20,000 troops brought by his eldest brother Liu Dai, it is more than enough to deal with Sun Jian.
Now everyone knows that blocking the city gate with stones can resist bombing the door, and Cao Cao is naturally no exception, receiving the news of Zhang Fei's attack on Yangzhou, he ordered the soldiers to use mud and stones to block the city gate.
Zhang Fei with fried. The bullets blew up the four doors one by one, useless, and the attack on Jiuyang County was blocked, and he shouted angrily! I didn't have an idea, so I asked Guo Jia.
Guo Jia pondered for a moment and said, "Since Cao Cao has blocked the city gate, General Yide might as well break through Lujiang County first!"
After the successful defeat of Lujiang Zhang Miao, come back and clean up Cao Cao! At that time, Jiuyang will be a lonely city without support, if Cao Cao stays here, sooner or later he will be a fish in our net!
Zhang Fei suddenly realized, and yelled at Jiuyang City: "Black Silk! Since the city gate has been blocked, you can stay in the city, and I will come to clean you up when I am free! ”
Then, Zhang Fei ordered: pull out the camp and go to Lujiang.
In Jiuyang County, Cao Cao and his generals were discussing a night attack on Zhang Fei and a scout to report; Zhang Fei withdrew his troops and went to Lujiang County!
Cao Cao's generals knew that the enemy army was retreating without a fight, and they were all elated and excited. Only Cao Cao's face was gloomy!
Cao Ren was not happy when he saw Cao Cao, and stepped forward and asked, "Why is the eldest brother worried?" ”
Cao Cao said depressedly: "I thought that Zhang Fei was a fierce general, and it was easy to deal with it if he was brave and unscrupulous, but it seems that there are capable people in Zhang Fei's army!" ”
Everyone was puzzled and asked Cao Cao what he meant?
Cao Cao was depressed and uncomfortable, these generals under his command were brave and brave, but there was no wise man, such obvious consequences could not be seen, who could help him come up with ideas?
In a hurry, Cao Cao had a splitting headache, and the generals hurriedly looked for a doctor without mentioning it!
Seven days later, Zhang Fei led his troops all the way to Lujiang County, after the bombing, the effect was the same as that of Jiuyang County, and all four gates were blocked.
Zhang Fei asked, "Fengxiao, how is this good?" ”
Guo Jia smiled slightly and said: "This scene, as early as I expected, in a few days, the lord's reinforcements will arrive!" Be patient! ”
Zhang Fei complained to Guo Jiadao: "How can Fengxiao ask for support? I have an army of 60,000 under Lao Zhang, and I have not yet started to ask for support, how ugly my face is! ”
Guo Jia patiently persuaded: "The elite soldiers under the general's command are all cavalry, and they have never been trained to fight in the city, do you want the precious lives of the soldiers to be wasted here?" ”
As for the troops of Danyang and Yuan Shu, almost all of them are troops who have never seen blood, and they can't be expected that once the siege is frustrated, it will definitely hit the morale of the army!
And His Royal Highness King Yan is never willing to exchange losses for victory in the future, General Yide, think twice! ”
Although Zhang Fei was very depressed, he knew that what Guo Jia said made sense! His soldiers were not trained to fight in the city at all, and they attacked the city with cavalry, which was really a big talent and a little use.
"So what are we going to do?" An army of 60,000 can't wait here, right? ”
Guo Jia's thinking was similar to that of Xi Zhicai, and he said to Zhang Fei: "The first troops were ordered to build a well and use crossbow arrows to shoot at Zhang Miao's soldiers who were defending the city.
Our crossbow arrows have a long range, and the soldiers have thick armor, so if the opponent shoots me, I will not hurt, and if I shoot the other, I will die, which can damage the morale of the defenders.
Compared with Cao Cao, Zhang Miao is a mediocre person, and this move will definitely demoralize his army, and when the siege troops arrive, he can break the city in one fell swoop! ”
Zhang Fei didn't have a better idea, so he ordered his subordinates to build wells and ladders according to the orders of the military advisor, and sent people to attack the surrounding counties.
Three days later, Jing Lan built more than 100 planes, and Zhang Fei ordered his soldiers to board Jing Lan and use crossbow arrows to suppress the defenders in the city, and Jing Lan slowly moved forward.
In Lujiang County, Zhang Miao's mood is quite depressed! (To be continued......)
