Chapter Fifty-Eight: Fire Attack?

The general trend of history is really not easy to reverse.

When all the Han troops retreated into Changshe City, Wei Tao found that there were only a few hundred people who directly attacked Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao's rear army.

This is not something that surprised Wei Tao, but what really surprised Wei Tao was the special appearance of those three people.

Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, after some introductions, it was really these three people.

"If it is said that Liu Bei and Zhang Fei knew each other in Zhuo County, it would be fine, but then Guan Yu should have met by coincidence, and now they are brothers, is there a certain number in the dark?"

Wei Tao was very suspicious in his heart, but it was naturally impossible to ask about such a thing.

In a big battle, if it weren't for Liu Bei and the three of them leading the army to fight from behind, I'm afraid Wei Tao and the others would not have been able to get out of the Yellow Turban Army so easily.

However, even in that struggle, the casualties of the Yellow Turban Army were not many, and after Wei Tao and others retreated to the Long Society, the Yellow Turban Army faintly surrounded the Long Society.

"It's thanks to Xuande. If it weren't for Xuande's timely arrival, I'm afraid that more than half of our army would have been killed or wounded by the Yellow Turban Army, and the Yellow Turban's evil deeds are really hateful and annoying. ”

After the ceremony, Cao Cao said to Liu Bei, but his tone was extremely gentle.

"But I don't know how Lu Dao Xuande can come in such a timely manner, could it be that it is the blessing of the Great Han?"

But Cao Cao was suspicious.

"Xu is so, I originally studied under Lu Zhonglang, I was originally cast, Lu Zhonglang said that although the battle situation with Zhang Jiao is unfavorable, it is still a stalemate, let me first come to help the two generals Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, and then join forces to attack Zhang Jiao to succeed."

Liu Bei spoke eloquently, speaking sincerely, even if Wei Tao deliberately paid attention, there was not the slightest hypocrisy.

"When I arrived in Yuzhou, I heard that the two generals Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were defeated in a series of accidents and rushed to the rescue, but unfortunately they encountered the Yellow Turban Danger along the way, but they couldn't catch up, and when they were close to the Changshe, they saw countless Yellow Turban actions, and they knew that there must be a Han army trapped by it, so they fought to save it."

said that it was a coincidence, but in fact, Wei Tao also believed it.

After all, after the incident, Wei Tao also noticed that the army led by Liu Bei was also exhausted, not like resting on the sidelines, and then entering at a critical time.

Obviously, Liu Bei has also been chasing the Yellow Turban Army, and only rushed into the battlefield after finding that the Han Army was trapped.

However, there is obviously still one thing, but Wei Tao is very confused.

"Dare to ask Xuande, since Lu Zhonglang asked Xuande to come to help, why not give Xuande an official position? It's not like helping Xuande? ”

Hearing that Wei Tao a young man dared to call Liu Bei directly, Zhang Fei behind Liu Bei suddenly stared at him viciously, although Guan Yu's eyes were closed lightly, but the gaze that glanced over from time to time was not very friendly.

But who is Wei Tao, and how is he afraid of these?

Not to mention that Liu Bei and the others have not risen yet, even if they do, what if they do, Wei Tao's strength will be inferior to him at that time?

"Wei Gongzi doesn't know, that horn is rampant in Jizhou, even Lu Zhonglang can only stalemate with it, and he can't distinguish the slightest soldiers and horses, so he can only let me lead the soldiers and horses of the headquarters to come."

I have to say that Liu Bei's temperament is very good, at least on the surface, he is not at all silent about Wei Tao being so 'rude'.

"As for the official position, although Lu Zhonglang is my teacher, how can the official position of the imperial court be granted and accepted privately?"

"What Xuande said is extremely true, but Tao is reckless."

Wei Tao really couldn't imagine that this thing would also change.

Wei Tao didn't know how the history was true, but he vaguely remembered that when Liu Bei arrived at Changshe, it seemed that it was the end of the battle of Changshe, not to mention being trapped in Changshe as if he was now.

"How are the two generals Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun now? Why haven't they been seen? ”

After the narration, Liu Bei naturally wanted to ask about the situation of the two generals.

"Xuande is not an outsider, and now the two generals are seriously injured, and it is difficult to treat them in the army, so I am afraid that they will need to return to Luoyang to recuperate."

Speaking of Huangfu Song and the others, Cao Cao's face suddenly darkened, and he hesitated for a moment but said.

"But now that the Yellow Turbans are besieging the city, and with the Yellow Turbans not afraid of life and death, if you really have the heart to take this city, I'm afraid that the Changshe will not be guaranteed, let alone send the two generals back to Luoyang to recuperate."

"This ......"

Hearing this, Liu Bei's face was also embarrassed.

It is true that both Liu Bei and Cao Cao are masterpieces of a generation, but in the face of the tactics of the Yellow Turbans, it is extremely difficult to ensure that they can break through, let alone leave with the seriously injured.

Liu Bei and Cao Cao couldn't, and Wei Tao couldn't.

Indeed, Wei Tao knew that Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were also trapped in the Changshe in the history of the Dao.

At that time, the Yellow Turban Army was not able to fight and became a battalion, but it was attacked by the Emperor and Song, and then it was broken in one fell swoop.

But unfortunately, in history, it was already in the middle of summer, when the weather was dry and dry, and fire attack was feasible.

But now it is only the end of March, although the Yellow Turban Army is also camped according to the grass, but it is the end of spring, and the method of fire attack is not easy.

For a while, Wei Tao also fell silent.

How to break a yellow scarf?

Just when everyone in the city of Changshe was thinking about it, the Yellow Turban camp outside the city was also thinking about the method of breaking the Changshe.

"The high walls of Changshe City are thick, I don't know if General Lu Dao Bocai has a way to break it?"

Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao had already recovered their makeup at this time, but Bo only thought that they had fled not long ago, resulting in defeat without a fight, but there was a bit of mustard in his heart.

Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao were not all straw bales, so they naturally noticed this.

However, the yellow scarf has no talents, and this wave of talents is already a rare leader, so even Zhang Liang and the two have to talk to each other at this time.

"It is true that I waited for General Bocai before, but we also contributed to my Yellow Turban Dao, and everyone in the Yellow Turban Dao is a brother and sister. Now, for the sake of my Yellow Turban cause, I need to break the Changshe as soon as possible, and then force Luoyang within a few months. In order to be able to succeed in the great cause, the elder brother did not hesitate to risk his life to attract the imperial army in Jizhou. ”

Hearing Zhang Liang mention Zhang Jiao, the little resentment in Na Bocai's heart also dissipated.

Like many Yellow Turbans, Bocai has great respect for Zhang Jiao.

"The plan for today is to surround the Changshe with soldiers, attacking day and night, the strength of my sect holy army is indeed insufficient, but under the unity of the city, a mere Changshe City will definitely be able to go down."

It's a pity that although Bocai is a good general, he also doesn't have a very good way, but compared to Zhang Liang and the others, Bocai obviously thinks more.

"And we can still release the news, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun are trapped here, and they will be killed by us in a few days, so that the officials of Yuzhou have to come to the rescue, and then the two dog thieves of Huangfu Song can be destroyed, and the Han army in Yuzhou can be broken in one fell swoop, which can make me teach big things!"

"Brilliant plan!"

Bocai's reinforcement was still a good plan, and it was immediately appreciated by Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao.

Don't look at the Yellow Turban Army, it seems that Wei Tao has been holding it, but in fact, in addition to the lack of discipline, the strength of the Yellow Turban Army is not weak.

With the prestige of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, some Han officials did send people to rescue them, but they were broken by the Yellow Turban, and even the guarded city was lost.

Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and the slightest news from the outside world has never been able to penetrate the long society.

"I didn't expect the yellow turban to use this method of besieging but not attacking to help with points. I still underestimate this yellow scarf. ”

Although I don't know the news from the outside world, just looking at the Yellow Turbans only showing off their might outside the city, they never attack the city, Cao Cao and others can figure out what the Yellow Turban is doing.

"Humph! If it was according to what I said, I should have rushed straight out of the gang a long time ago, what's so great about those yellow scarves, I can defeat him with a few casual strokes! ”

It will be at this time that it is Zhang Fei who says so.

Having said that during this period of time, Wei Tao also learned about the personalities of Liu Bei and the others.

Except for Liu Bei, who doesn't know whether Lu Dao is good by nature or deliberately pretending to be hypocritical, the other two people's temperaments are similar to legends.

"Yide, you can't do this, if I can break through, I will naturally do this a long time ago."

Liu Bei was the only one who could convince Zhang Fei, and after training Zhang Fei, Liu Bei turned his head to look at Cao Cao and said.

"Now General Huangfu and General Zhu are still unable to get up? If there are no two of them, I am afraid that we will not be able to do anything except our own troops and horses. ”

There are now more than 10,000 troops in Changshe City, but in fact, more than half of them belong to Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun's subordinates.

When they were not in the Changshe, they were willing to follow Cao Cao's orders and work hard, but now, if it weren't for the personal command of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, those soldiers would not obey the order at all.

"Xuan Demo is in a hurry, although the yellow scarf is a capable person to use this encirclement to help, but in the past few days, I have a way to break it."

Cao Cao smiled slightly, but said quite smugly.

"The yellow turban camped according to the grass, but he didn't know how to send troops, if he attacked it with fire, he would definitely be able to break it."

"Brother Mengde, I have also thought about the plan of fire attack, but at the turn of spring and summer, the rain will be abundant, and the grass and trees contain spring non-flammable fire, although the Yellow Turban is camped according to the grass, but it has already surrounded the entire Changshe, unless dozens of places are on fire, otherwise with the current situation of the Yellow Turban Army, I am afraid it is impossible to collapse in one fell swoop."

Although he knows the history of the Dao, the history is different, but Wei Tao also put his mind to it.

"There's still some way."

"Yes, that's true, but what if we sneak into the Yellow Turban? The yellow scarves are powerful, but how can you tell each other? ”

Wei Tao was slightly stunned, and then thought about it carefully.

Wei Tao just remembered that it was Huangfu Song who burned the wave of talented troops clean in history, but he didn't expect what Huangfu Song did at that time?

According to what Wei Tao sees now, it is indeed impossible to send people to attack and kill and set fire while he is unprepared, but if he sends people to lurk in the yellow scarf, then it is different.

However, Wei Tao is Wei Tao after all, even Cao Cao's idea is impossible for him to convince him, and then he shook his head after thinking about it carefully.

"Brother, after thinking about it, I thought it was inappropriate."
