Chapter 32: Help you call for help

"The lord doesn't have to mind, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, Zhou Sima just lost too much blood, just recuperate for a few days." Jia Xu hurriedly comforted Chen Lin, afraid that Chen Lin would blame himself for this. Chen Lin raised his head: "Zhao Cen took advantage of our army to go out of the city yesterday after being defeated by our army, he never dared to go out of the city again, there are nearly 10,000 soldiers in the city, and our army is only more than 4,000 people, Wen He can have a plan to help break this city?" "It has been three days since Chen Lin left Luoyang, and yesterday he went to the city of Mianchi to start a battle and was planned, but fortunately, when Zhao Cen followed the tail to kill, he was beaten by Huang Zhong and others to practice and retreat, but Zhao Cen closed the city gate and ignored Chen Lin anymore. Chen Lin had few soldiers and was unwise to attack the city, so he asked Jia Xu. Jia Xu thought for a while and said, "Yes, it just takes some time." ”

Chen Lin thought about it, when the army left Luoyang, there were only ten days of grain and grass, and now it has been three days, that is, there are still seven days of grain and grass, Chen Lin can't afford it, but there is no other way in front of him, so he said: "It's okay, there must be countless grains and grass in Michi City, otherwise how can the soldiers and horses live." Jia Xu: "So, my lord, now that there are many soldiers in Michi, they dare not go out of the city to fight a decisive battle with our army, and if you don't want the second general to order the wolf to ride across Michi, cut off all connections between Michi and other cities." After only two or three days, Cao Yang and others after the pond sent reinforcements, which was when our army broke through the pond. ”

Chen Lin couldn't help asking, "Reinforcements?" Since the connection between Michi and the outside world has been severed, how can reinforcements come to save Michi? Jia Xu grinned and said, "I'll wait to help Michi ask for help." Looking at Jia Xu's unfathomable look, Chen Lin couldn't help but be helpless, Jia Xu: "Lord, listen, our army only needs a few soldiers and horses to shout here every day, Zhao Cen in the city does not dare to go out of the city, most of our army crossed the pond in the dark, and at the same time secretly asked Cao Yang for help for the pond, Cao Yang's rescue troops will come, and our army ambushed reinforcements." After that, he tried to let Michi know that Cao Yang came to rescue the soldiers, but our army deceived Cao Yang as a rescuer and rushed into Michi. As soon as Jia Xu finished speaking, Chen Lin pondered, this is not impossible, but it is not easy, it is not easy to annihilate all Cao Yang's troops, not to leave one behind, at least not to let Mianchi know, and at the same time to make Mianchi believe in himself, it is not easy.

The matter is man-made, Chen Lin decided to do what Jia Xu said, and at the same time, Jia Xu also added a lot, such as letting the wolf ride around the pond openly, as for doing so, Jia Xu has his own deep meaning. In Mianchi, Zhao Cen: "I didn't expect that there were so many cavalry in the Hanzhong army, and now the people who have contact with me in Mianchi and the outside world dare not leave Mianchi." Zhao Xiu thought about it and felt that it didn't have much impact, because the Mianchi soldiers had enough food and didn't need rescue from the outside world. Suddenly, a sergeant Dong Dong ran in: "Report to the general, there is a fight in the direction of Cao Yang outside the city, it seems that the scout from Cao Yang has encountered the rebels." Zhao Cen hurriedly ran out and ran up the city wall to visit, and at this time he saw the west running over and riding, covered in blood. Galloping towards the city wall, he shouted: "General, a certain Cao Yang scout." ”

Zhao Cen looked at it, and saw that the man was wearing Dong Jun's clothes, and dozens of Hanzhong cavalry were chasing behind him, and the soldiers on the wall suddenly looked at Zhao Cen one by one, Zhao Cen looked at it, but Zhao Xiu next to him said: "Father, first order this person not to move under the wall, and the defenders on the wall will shoot back the enemy cavalry." So Zhao Cen said loudly: "Do what the young general says." "The city was shooting arrows, and the dozens of cavalry flicked a few times, turned around and ran, leaving only the Cao Yang scout gasping under the wall. The gates of the city cannot be opened, so drop the basket and come up from it. In the Michi County Mansion, Zhao Cen and his son and Cao Yang's scout, Zhao Xiu: "You said that you found out that there were cavalry haunting two days ago?" ”

Scout: "Yes, General, since last night, the small one has tried to steal into the pond while it is dark, but unfortunately he was discovered, and after a chase, only the little one was alive." General Li had already reported the matter to Xiangguo in Caoyang, and General Li thought it was ...... I thought ......" The scout's eyes flashed and peeked at Zhao Cen, not daring to continue. Zhao Cen was furious when he saw this, and laughed coldly: "Hmph, Li Wangyuan thought that the general surrendered to the army, hmph, don't think that the general doesn't know." After Zhao Cen finished speaking, he turned to Zhao Xiu and said: "My son, I regret that I shouldn't have reported this to Xiangguo in advance, and now let Li Wangyuan give Xiangguo a return, but I don't know what this Li Wangyuan will say to his father." "Li Wangyuan is Li Meng, Cao Yang's guard.

Zhao Cen and Li Meng's grievances Zhao Xiu naturally knew that when he saw Zhao Cen say this, and saw what this scout said, which alluded to the grievances between Zhao Cen and Li Meng, this scout must be true. Zhao Xiu said: "Father, what should I do about this matter? , If you send cavalry out immediately, you can go back and explain a thing or two to Xiangguo, if Xiangguo really listens to Li Wangyuan's slander, my father and son will not be tolerated by Xiangguo. At this time, the scout suddenly said: "General, General Li said when he came, Caoyang's 10,000 troops will support Michi at any time, and when the small one comes, General Li has already reorganized his armament, and the small one must return to Caoyang immediately, and I hope that the general will allow the small one to go out of the city." ”

Zhao Cen was taken aback: "What, Li Wangyuan reorganized his armaments, and the general saw that he was not going to support, but to crusade against the general, did he really think that the general would surrender?" Zhao Xiu said at this time: "Father, this matter should not be delayed. He turned to the scout and said, "How can you go back alone, I don't know how many anti-army cavalry there are outside." "Father, why don't you send a team of cavalry to Caoyang with this person, whether Li Wangyuan comes or not, at least my father and son are not anti-army, so as not to misunderstand Xiangguo." Zhao Cen remembered Dong Zhuo and immediately agreed to Zhao Xiu's proposal, so he immediately ordered a dozen cavalry to go to Caoyang with this scout. Walking on the streets of Mianchi, heading towards the city gate, the "scout" thought to himself, Jia Junshi is really powerful, and even knows the grievances between Zhencen and Li Wangyuan, hehe. Thinking about it, he looked at the dozen or so cavalrymen beside him who were about to go out of the city with him, and sneered in his heart.

At the same time, Li Meng, the guard general of Caoyang who was only half a day's journey to the west of Mianchi, also received a scout who said that he was Mianchi, and saw that this person was also incomplete and had at least seven or eight wounds on his body. At this time, the scout was kneeling in front of Li Meng, and said with a crying voice: "General Li, save a certain general, at least 10,000 troops of the Kwantung rebel army stormed Michi day and night, and more than 30 small people rushed out to report the news, and only the small one left, woo woo." Li Meng was shocked, it turned out that the scouts had reported that there were unknown cavalry in the direction of Michi in the past two days, which was true. Li Meng hurriedly asked: "Say, how can the Kwantung rebel army only have 10,000 horses, when did they start attacking Michi?" Scout: "It's not the Kwantung coalition army, only the Hanzhong First Army, the other coalition forces are in Luoyang, and they are not advancing westward, the Hanzhong rebel army began to attack the city five days ago, and now there are heavy casualties in Michi, and the city is about to be broken." Li Meng stood up abruptly and walked around the county hall as if thinking about something. The scout suddenly said: "General Li, the little one still has to go to Chang'an, there are four groups of people who left Mianchi, the small one doesn't know if the other three groups have come out, and the little one has to go to Chang'an to report to Xiangguo." ”

As soon as Li Meng heard it, damn, this Zhao Cen reported to Xiangguo at every turn, if he didn't go to the rescue in Cao Yang, he was afraid that Xiangguo wouldn't be able to spare himself in the future. Li Meng knew that something was wrong with Mianchi, but he didn't expect that in such a way, 10,000 people attacked the city, and there were 10,000 defenders in Mianchi, Zhao Cen was a waste. Li Meng waved back the scout, let him out, and secretly sent Kuai to follow, and an hour later, Kuaima reported that the scout was indeed on the way to Chang'an. Li Meng immediately counted 5,000 soldiers and horses, left 5,000 to guard Cao Yang, and personally led the team to rescue Mianchi. Hanzhong Army, Chen Lin, this thorn, when Li Meng and Wang Fang met Chen Lin for the first time, they knew that Chen Lin was not easy to deal with, but they didn't expect Chen Lin to attack Michi again.

What Li Meng never imagined was that it was not Michichi who wanted to be saved at this time, but himself. Cao Yang went to Mianchi for another half a day, Li Meng just came out of Caoyang, so he naturally didn't care so much, but Jia Xu calculated this, so at this time, less than ten miles away from Cao Yang, four thousand Hanzhong soldiers and horses, including wolf horses, were ready to go, hiding in the bushes and not daring to come out, for fear of frightening Cao Yang's army. Chen Lin glanced back at Jia Xu, and said with a smile in his heart, Jia Xu picked a good place, even if he fought and died here, it was impossible for Zhao Cen in the pond to know, there were enough three hundred wolves to patrol around the pond day and night, and if they dared to come out, they would die again.

After a while, the scout secretly ran back and said to Chen Lin excitedly: "Lord, here, here, here, five thousand, five thousand." "Five thousand, Chen Lin thought to himself, just right, if you have more, you can't deal with it, and if you have less, it's not cost-effective. Chen Lin shouted to the people around him in a low voice: "There is no order, no movement, violators will be executed." The army hurriedly lowered their skull armor. There was a meal of effort, and the sound of the army advancing was heard in front of him, and Jia Xu sneaked over and said to Chen Lin: "Lord, it's done." "It's not started yet, Jia Xu said like this, which can be regarded as full of certainty. Chen Lin smiled, there was no response, the matter had been calculated by Jia Xu to the brink, in Jia Xu's eyes, it was naturally a success. Chen Lin looked up from time to time, and roughly estimated the time, and the five thousand people should be more than half by this time. I saw several strong men behind Chen Lin nodding, these people had been waiting for Chen Lin's signal, set up a rocket and shot it, and the Hanzhong sergeant who was close knew that this was the signal, jumped up with a shout and rushed towards Li Meng. In an instant, there was a sensation in the four fields, some with weeds on their heads, and some with dusty faces, all of them rushed out with a roar with flying expressions.

Li Meng's army was so frightened that there was an ambush here. Li Meng was taken aback and shouted: "Medium plan, withdraw." I was about to run back, not wanting to turn around, a few war horses jumped out of the wasteland, and the first person was a tiger with a bear's waist, slender white beards fluttering in the wind, laughing: "Where is the thief, Nanyang Huang Hansheng is here." ”

Ambushed on all sides and encountered fierce generals, it was really impossible to enter the sky and no way to the ground.
