Chapter 233: Strategy

Zhang Lang looked at the map and thought: Zhang Liao is right, although this path can be bypassed, but it can only be a light army, unable to carry baggage, let alone heavy siege equipment, in case the battle is stalemate, this light army will be dangerous.

Zhang Lang's eyes couldn't help but move towards the north, his eyes fell on Shangdang, and his eyes lit up. Finger a little to the party, "The light troops don't care about Keiguan, just assault the party!" ”

The generals were shocked. Zhang Liao said excitedly: "If you take the Shangdang, the defenders of Jiguan will definitely be shaken, and it will be effortless to take Jiguan at that time!" ”

Yan Xing said worriedly: "But Shangdang is an important town in the south of Bingzhou, with 20,000 defenders, and tens of thousands of civilian troops and private soldiers. If the action is discovered by the other party, this light army will be in a dilemma! ”

Zhang Liao frowned and looked at Zhang Lang.

Zhang Lang turned around, "There's nothing to hesitate about!" There is no war that does not take risks! I have made up my mind to raid the party with an elite army! ”

Zhang Liao immediately clenched his fists and said: "The last general is willing to lead the army to go!" ”

Zhang Lang walked up to Zhang Liao and patted him on the shoulder, "This matter is indeed going to fall on Wen Yuan." The Tiger Wing Army and the Long Tao Army each selected 10,000 light cavalry and set off tonight! "No."

Guandu Yuan Shao camp.

Just as Yuan Shao was discussing with the generals of the advisors, the messenger sent by Jiang Fang suddenly came, and as soon as he came in, he reported with an urgent face: "The lord is not good, Lu Bu is attacking Jiguan, and the general has sent me to ask for help!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone at the scene was taken aback. Yuan Shao said in disbelief: "Lu Bu actually dares to beat my Jiguan? Did he eat the gall of the ambitious leopard? Xu You hurriedly asked, "Did Lu Bu personally go out?" How many soldiers and horses are there? The messenger replied: "Lu Bu personally led the army, and the Long Tao Army and the Tiger Wing Army are here, with a total strength of no less than 200,000!" ”

Tian Feng said in a deep voice: "Lu Bu is going to take the opportunity to seize Jingzhou!" Glancing at Xu You, he sneered: "I said a long time ago that I should strictly guard against Lu Bu, but some people don't listen!" ”

Yuan Shao asked a little at a loss: "Lu Bu is fighting and merging the state, how is this good?" ”

Xu You hugged his fists and said: "Don't worry, lord! There are still more than 100,000 soldiers and horses in Bingzhou and they are sitting on dangerous passes, even if it is Lu Bu's tiger and wolf army, it is impossible to take it in a short time! The lord should immediately send messengers to the Xianbei and Karasuma people, promising them to send troops! ”

Tian Feng said angrily: "The Xianbei people and the Karasuma people are all greedy wolves, even if they beat Lu Bu away, these wolves will turn Bingzhou into ruins!" ”

Xu You sneered: "No matter how greedy the Xianbei people and Karasuma people are, what they are greedy for is nothing more than food treasures, but Lu Bu is different, he wants all the qiē!" Chao Yuan Shao hugged his fist, "Which is more important, the lord is wise, he should be able to make a clear decision!" ”

Yuan Shao looked at the two of them, hesitated, and looked at Xu You, "What Xu You said is extremely true!" ”

Xu Yu was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "Since the lord has made a decision, then without further ado, you should send a messenger immediately!" Yuan Shao nodded and looked at Guo Tu, "Guo Tu." Guo Tu immediately came out and hugged his fists and responded: "My lord." "I appoint you as my envoy to set off for Karasuma Xianbei and persuade them to go south!" "No."

Xu You said again: "My lord, you should also send a messenger to Sun Jian and ask him to attack the Luoyang area!" ”

Yuan Shao nodded: "Well, this plan is very good. Then he frowned, "It's just that Sun Jian can agree?" ”

Xu You stroked his beard and smiled: "The lord doesn't need to worry too much, Sun Jian should be fighting Luoyang's idea at the moment, the lord just needs to add a fire!" ”

Yuan Shao nodded with a smile, and then asked with some concern: "Wouldn't Sun Jian hit Cao Cao's head with his idea?" ”

"Don't worry, Sun Jian is shrewd! He will definitely not do this, because if the two of us attack Cao Cao, if Cao Cao is finally eliminated, then what will Sun Jian face? He will face the lord of the waves, and he will not be able to resist at all! Instead of making wedding clothes for us, it is better for us to fight to the death with Cao Cao, and he will take the opportunity to expand and increase his strength! Therefore, his subordinates can conclude that his target must be Hanzhong, Luoyang, and Xichuan! The lord sent a messenger to add a fire, and promised that Luoyang and other places would belong to him Sun Jian, so that he could go to Lu Bu for trouble with peace of mind! ”

Yuan Shao laughed, "Okay, good! Discipline. ”

A scribe with three strands of long hair and a graceful style immediately stepped forward and responded with his fists clenched: "My lord." ”

"You just go to Sun Jian's place." "No."

……

The crescent moon has slanted to the west, and the earth is quiet, and the hustle and bustle has returned to silence. Zhang Liao led 20,000 light cavalry into the vast mountains, over the mountains and mountains, through the forest and the stream, where is the road here? They are all moving forward one foot deep and one foot shallow among the thorns and stones.

Yes! Suddenly there was a shout from the front, and then someone in front of him shouted: "Someone has fallen off the cliff!" Everyone hurriedly looked towards the cliff on the left, only to faintly see a vague shadow falling rapidly, and it took a long time to hear the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

Zhang Liao frowned, and said with his eyes: "Everyone get off the horse, be careful with your step, and walk slowly!" ”

The soldiers did so at once, marching slowly but with difficulty.

……

Early the next morning. Jiang Fang climbed the city wall early and looked out of the city, only to see that Lu Bu's army was outside the city, and a general was fighting under the gate. The warrior general has a leopard body and a wolf waist, sharp eyes, iron armor all over his body, and a iron horse lance in his hand, and the war horse under his crotch neighs and roars in the wind.

Jiang Fang immediately asked the general beside him: "Who is this person?" ”

The general replied: "This person's name is Yan Xing, and he was originally a general of the Xiliang Army. ”

Jiang Fang smiled coldly, "It turns out that he is just a nobody!" Turning his head and glancing at the eager generals under his command, "Which of you dares to fight?" ”

Immediately, several generals stepped forward to ask for battle.

Jiang Fang was relieved in his heart, and said to the most burly general: "Fang Tong." If you can kill this enemy general, I will personally go to the lord to ask for credit for you! ”

Fang Tong was overjoyed, "The general just waits!" In a few moments, the last general will present the head of the thief! He turned around and went down the wall.

Immediately, the city gate opened, and Fang Tong galloped out on a horse with a big sword, shouting: "Thief general, I will take your head!" He rushed straight towards Yan Xing. Yan Xing showed excitement, urged the horse to catch up, and in a blink of an eye, the two horses intersected, Fang Tong swung his big knife and slashed towards Yan Xing, Yan Xing avoided sideways, and at the same time stabbed the opponent's chest with the horse lance in his hand! Fang Tong was shocked when he saw the opponent's horse lance stabbing coming, he couldn't avoid it, he was eaten through his chest, rolled the declining war horse, and died!

Jiang Fang and the others all changed color, and Jiang Fang said in disbelief: "This, this Yan Xing is so powerful!" ”
