Yangle, the county guard's house.

Although Yangle is the seat of the county seat of Liaoxi County, because Liu Chuang has lived in Linyu County for a long time, the theory of county governance has existed in name only.

Moreover, with the revocation of the subject state of Liaodong and the establishment of Changli County, the two counties are too close to each other, and the meaning of setting Yangle as the county governance before will no longer exist. However, since Yoraku is located in a Karasuma mixed area, it is still extremely important.

Wang He trotted all the way into the county government hall.

"Mr. Ji Bi, Liucheng is besieged."

Chen corrected the case to deal with the official documents, and when he heard Wang He's voice, he was stunned at first, and then he was shocked.

"Liucheng is besieged? Who did it? ”

Wang He hurriedly shook his head and said, "I got the news that Liucheng has been burning beacon fire and wolf smoke since last night, so I have sent scouts to investigate." ”

Chen Jiao showed a dignified sè and was silent.

He knew that Liu Chuang was in Liucheng at the moment.

If it was only a small scale of soldiers and horses, it would be impossible to set off wolf smoke and beacon fire.

In other words, the soldiers and horses besieging Liucheng must not be underestimated. But where are the soldiers coming? Why didn't I get any news?

Chen Jiao's brows furrowed, and after thinking for a long time, he suddenly felt a chill.

Although he is not the kind of strategist who is full of scheming and exhaustive strategies, he is not an idle person.

At first, he was confused by shock, but when he calmed down, he immediately figured out the mystery. But after thinking about it, Chen Jiao broke out in a cold sweat. The siege of Liucheng is by no means a single event, and it must be mixed with the calculations of all parties. Previously, the strange Pinggang Xianbei suddenly attacked Lu Longsai, which was already a bit weird. Didn't Bu Benyi know that with his three troops of Pinggang, White Wolf and Bai Tan, even if he defeated Lu Longsai, he would be able to make Liaoxi turbulent?

The three Xianbei are not as good as those soldiers and horses.

Once Liu Chuang gained a firm foothold in Youzhou, he could destroy his tribes like a bamboo.

Bu Benyi is not a fool, he dares to take such a big risk to do this kind of thing, there must be a trick. Now, Uncle Huang's soldiers and horses are mobilized, and Bu Benyi's back moves are also exposed. Yan Liyou! Bu Benyi must have reached a reconciliation with Yan Liyou, the attack on Lu Longsai was fake, and the surprise attack on Liucheng was real. At the same time, Liucheng Karasuma must also echo Yan Liyou, otherwise how could he drive straight in?

Thinking of this, Chen Jiao suddenly became impatient......

Once Liucheng is captured, not to mention Liaoxi, which has just been restored to calm, there will inevitably be a violent upheaval, but it is only Liu Chuang......

Chen Jiao didn't dare to think about it anymore and paced on the yatang.

"Yangle, how many soldiers and horses are there now?"

Wang He smiled bitterly: "Previously, General Hansheng advanced to Youbeiping and took away most of the soldiers and horses.

Jinyangle counted the patrols, but there were only about 1,500 people, and there were no brave generals to lead them. Although he had sent people to Linyu to ask for the emperor's support, so far, the emperor's uncle had not assigned troops and horses. With these 1,500 people, I am afraid it will be difficult to save Liucheng from safety. ”

Chen Jiao patted his forehead lightly, and he also looked bitter.

With the outbreak of the Battle of Youzhou, the forces of western Liaoning suddenly became empty.

Previously, there were old battalions and flying bears riding in fashion and were not visible, but now the old battalion was transferred to Lu Longsai, and Zhang Liao was ordered to attack, and the troops in western Liaoning were suddenly insufficient. Previously, Chen Jiao had sent people to Liaodong and Xuansu County for help, and Xun Kuang also agreed to support some of his soldiers and horses. But the problem is that far water can't quench the thirst of the near...... Even if Xun Kuang sends troops to aid at this time, I am afraid it will take three or five days to arrive.

The question is, will Liu Cheng be able to hold out until that time?

Regarding the defense of Liucheng, Chen Jiao is not unclear.

Liucheng is to put it bluntly, it is an earthen city, and the city walls are not strong enough, so it is difficult to hold on for too long.

Could it be that Uncle Huang's great cause is about to fall into trouble?

"Ji Bi, in fact, it's not that there are no soldiers to send, it's just ......"

"Oh?"

Wang He hesitated and said: "Liucheng was besieged, but Su Muyan did not move, which shows that he did not collude with the Xianbei people.

If Su Muyan is also involved, I am afraid that Yang Le will also be surrounded now. I can go to Changli immediately and persuade Su Fuyan to send troops to rescue me. It's just that Su Fuyan is greedy, and if he doesn't have enough benefits, I'm afraid he may not be willing to gather troops and horses to help Liucheng. ”

By the way, there's also a Su Fuyan!

Chen Jiao suddenly showed a sudden expression, nodded lightly and said, "Since this is the case, it will be good for him." ”

"Su Fuyan has a son, named Su Wei, who is double ten.

Su Yanping rìli, this son is extremely fond of him. Some time ago, when He was having wine with Su Fuyan, he happened to hear him say that he hoped that Su Wei could serve the imperial uncle and join the Flying Bear Riding to do things...... It's just that this matter requires the nod of the emperor's uncle, and he doesn't dare to agree. ”

When Chen Jiao heard this, he gritted his teeth and said: "I will go back and tell Su Fuyan, and say that if he is willing to send troops, I will protect Su Wei into the Flying Bear Ride."

In addition, 100,000 yuan was transferred from the treasury to Su Fuyan, and it was believed that he would not refuse to send troops. However, don't sue him, the imperial uncle is also in Liucheng. This old man is the best at stealing jiān and playing tricks, if he knows that the imperial uncle is also in Liucheng, it is difficult to ensure that he does not have other thoughts.

This matter is urgent, so I asked Wang Changshi to work hard and immediately go to Changli to visit Su Muyan.

I will talk to Wen Hou, and then lead my troops to Liucheng and wait for the opportunity to act. ”

Chen Jiao said it to this point, Wang He didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly took the order.

Subsequently, Chen Jiao ordered people to go to Linyu to inform Lu Bu, and then he personally ordered 800 soldiers and horses and rushed to Liucheng overnight......

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Disheveled!

A boulder slammed into the city wall of Liucheng, and the rammed earth city wall suddenly showed fine cracks, like the shape of a spider's web.

Liu Chuang wheeled his sword, slashed a Karasuma rebel who climbed to the top of the city to the ground, and shouted loudly: "Hengruo, drive these dog thieves down for me." ”

Xia Houlan took a team of iron guards and immediately rushed to the gap.

The two stood side by side, swords and shots, and drove the Karasuma people who had climbed the castle down the city wall again.

The July sun shines over Liucheng.

There was a halo of blood at the head of the city, and there was a thick bloody atmosphere in the air.

Under the castle, the Karasuma people launched a ferocious attack on Yanagi Castle like cháo water. They did not have large siege equipment, but with their superiority in numbers, they posed a huge threat to Liucheng. The Karasuma people have lived in Liucheng for many years, mixed with the Han people, and also know some manufacturing techniques. They used simple ladders to attack the wood, one by one, one by one, swarming, extremely fierce.

Fortunately, although Shi Lian's subordinates are not regular soldiers, they have also undergone strict training.

Many of them were recruited in Qingzhou at the beginning, and their combat effectiveness was also quite strong.

Under Shi Lian's calm and unhurried command, the Han army relied on the walls of Liucheng to stubbornly resist the attack of the Karasuma people. Jars of burning oil flew out of the city and smashed into the crowd, turning into flames and rising into puffs of smoke, soaring into the sky.

Liu Chuang and Xiahoulan each led a team of iron guards to fight at the head of the city.

As soon as the swarming Karasuma people reached the top of the city, they were immediately greeted by Liu Chuang's ferocious attack. The two sides fought fiercely at the head of Liucheng City. The battle began early in the morning and lasted until noon, when the Karasuma people finally suspended their offensive after an early afternoon onslaught.

At the head of the city, blood flowed everywhere.

Blood flowed down the cracks in the rubble at the head of the city, down the water hole under the female wall, and stained the city wall with blood.

Liu Chuang was out of breath and dragged his knife to the city tower.

The whole person is like a bloody person, and his whole body is stained with blood.

It's just that his jīng god still looks very stubborn, and he doesn't show the slightest tiredness.

Xia Houlan was a little tired, and walked up to Liu Chuang with a gun and stood behind. Shi Lian's face was solemn, and he looked as if he was about to drip, staring at the battlefield under the city, without saying a word.

On the battlefield, flames are rising.

The corpses were lying on the ground, and there were Karasuma people cleaning them up.

From the direction of the Xianbei camp, there was a whimpering horn, like a requiem on the battlefield......

"My lord, the situation seems to be a little bad."

"Oh?"

"Most of the people who are besieging the city today are Karasuma people, and the main force of Xianbei has not appeared.

Obviously, that Putou is using the Karasuma people to consume our strength, and the last general thinks that after today, it must be the Xianbei people who will launch an offensive. At that time, if Liucheng is breached by them, it will inevitably create an illusion for the Karasuma people, and Xianbei's combat power is strong......

In this way, the entire western Liaoning will be in turmoil, and it is difficult to guarantee that the former naturalized Karasuma people will not recur. ”

Will the Kasuma people drain the power of the castle and then strike a thunderous blow?

Liu Chuang's heart chuckled, and the joy of driving the Karasuma people down before was swept away.

This is by no means an idea that Putou and other guys can come up with, if Putou does not have a resourceful person around him to help, Liu Chuang will not believe it even if he is killed.

"Gong Liu, is there enough ordnance baggage in the city?"

Shi Jian shook his head and said softly: "Only this noon, the arrows will lose the three pavilions.

I'm worried that if the Ming people attack, the arrows may not be enough...... Lord, if you don't, break through. With the bravery of the lord, plus Heng Ruo and the flying bear ride, he will definitely be able to fight his way out of the encirclement. It is not important for us to die in Liucheng, but if the lord ...... I also ask the lord to avenge us in the future. ”

Shi Jian only talked about the loss of arrows, but did not say about the casualties.

Although Liu Chuang is not clear, it can be estimated that there must be heavy casualties.

It's no wonder that the Karasuma people are attacking very dreamily, and they are not afraid of death one by one. Although the Han army resisted desperately, the other side was overwhelmed.

"Soldiers and horses, how much is the loss?"

"This ......"

Shi Jian hesitated for a moment and said softly: "In just one afternoon, the casualties of the sons and daughters should be more than three hundred. ”

Liu Chuang gasped when he heard this.

Most of the Han troops defending the city were Shi Lian's troops, with 300 dead and wounded, more than one-tenth.

And this death and injury is just a noon time...... Liu Chuang had to worry that if he continued to fight, the casualties of the Han army would be even more staggering.

Breakout?

Liu Chuang is confident, he dismounts from his crotch and has a knife in his hand, and it is not difficult to fight his way out of the encirclement.

But leaving behind many sons and daughters in Liucheng is not the result he wants to see. Since he was born, he has experienced countless vicious battles and dangers, but he has never abandoned his tribe. Not to mention, if Liucheng is lost and Liaoxi is turbulent, his previous efforts will be in vain, which is definitely not the result that Liu Chuang is willing to see. Although it is said that the green mountains are left, I am not afraid of running out of firewood...... can escape from the battle, which is definitely not what Liu Chuang wants. He believes that Yangle Chen Jiao and Lu Bu of Linyu will definitely take action to solve this crisis.

Now, the only way to resist desperately is to gamble on the ability of Chen Jiao and Lu Bu.

"Gong Liu, don't say that you want me to break through.

How can I forsake you at this time? Besides, there are still thousands of soldiers and horses in my city, and there are countless baggage, even if the Xianbei people are cunning, they will not want to break through Liucheng. Hold on, three reinforcements will arrive at the latest, and when the time comes, why not win? ”

Liu Chuang looked full of confidence, but it made Shi Chuan suddenly play jīng.

He couldn't help but laugh, nodded lightly and said, "What the lord said is extremely true, just a little nonsense, how can it be bad for the lord's great cause!" ”

The two of them talked for a while, and the war drums outside the city sounded again.

After a short rest, the Karasuma people gathered their troops again and launched a ferocious attack on Yanagijo.

This battle was completely dark.

The Karasuma people's attack as if they were going crazy also caused heavy losses to the Han army in Liucheng. The two sides did not stop until the day was dark and the sky was dark. There was another whimpering trumpet, and the Karasuma people stormed it, and after paying nearly three thousand dead and wounded, they finally died down.

From the head of Liucheng City, there were bursts of cheers.

After a bloody battle, the Han army also suffered heavy casualties, and nearly 600 sons died in the city.

Looking at the Karasuma soldiers and horses who retreated like cháo water, Liu Chuang's eyes flashed with a solemn sè.

He held the female wall battlement with one hand, and looked at the brightly lit Xianbei camp in the distance with the other, his eyes were shining, and after a while, he clenched his fists and secretly made up his mind.

"Gong Liu, I stole the camp, what do you think?"

"Huh?"

When Shi Jian heard this, he couldn't help but be taken aback, and his face showed a shocked expression.

He resisted desperately today, he was exhausted, where would he think of stealing camps and robbing villages.

"Today, the battle is hard, the sons and daughters are seriously wounded, and their morale is inevitably low.

If you blindly guard the palace like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to resist it for long. You also saw how crazy those Karasuma people were...... If Ming Rì is replaced by a Xianbei attack, it will definitely be more ferocious. In this case, he took the initiative and hit him by surprise. Although the Xianbei people did not participate in the attack, they were inevitably slack. I take the opportunity to sneak attack, and I will surely win a big victory. ”

Shi Jian listened and nodded slightly.

I have to say that although what Liu Chuang said seems reckless, it is quite reasonable.

Only this kind of defense is no match for the opponent's outnumbered people after all. The Xianbei people also know very well that they don't have much time...... Once the Han army reacts, it will inevitably go crazy to help. At that time, this Xianbei people had to face the situation of being attacked on their backs.

Therefore, if they use the Karasuma people to consume the strength of the city, they will inevitably attack more fiercely, and they will even want to succeed in the first battle......

But they would never have thought that the Han army would launch a counterattack at this time.

Thinking of this, Shi Lian was also moved, and said softly: "But I don't know how the lord and yù sneak attacked?" ”

The gate of Liucheng has been sealed, and if you want to kill it, it is by no means a simple matter, let alone startling the snake.

On the Xianbei side, there are resourceful people who will definitely be on guard. Therefore, it is not easy to sneak attack, and there must be a perfect strategy.

After Liu Chuang pondered for a long time, he whispered in Shi Lian's ear.

Shi Jian frowned and listened, his face even more uncertain and unpredictable.

"Lord, this is too dangerous!"

"Since ancient times, success has been taken from the details, and it has always been rich and dangerous...... If not, how can you hide it from the Xianbei people?

I have decided on this matter, and Gong Liu Xiu will persuade him again. You just have to take away Liucheng, and after dark, Heng Ruo and I will definitely be able to win a big victory.

However, you have to be careful.

Although a lot of fine work has been cleared last night, it is difficult to ensure that there are no fish that have slipped through the net.

Tonight, we need to step up inspections to make sure there is no chaos in the city......"

Shi Chuan also knew in his heart that Liu Chuang was a person with great ideas.

Once he has made up his mind, it is not easy to persuade him to change.

In this case, he could only nod his head in agreement.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

At that moment, Liu Chuang and Xiahoulan discussed and selected three hundred brave men from the Flying Bear Rider.

The selection of the members of this Flying Bear Ride is very strict, and it can be described as one in a hundred. Now three hundred warriors have been selected from among them, and their combat power is naturally amazing.

The most important thing is that this flying bear rode to the city and fought hard, so he was full of strength.

Liu Chuang ordered people to prepare wine and meat, and after eating a full meal with three hundred soldiers, he went back to the room and slept with his head covered.

When the heavenly generals were waiting, Liu Chuang came to the city with a spirit. Xiahou Lan and the three hundred soldiers had been waiting for a long time, and Shi Jian had prepared enough ropes, and took advantage of the night to hang Liu Chuang Xiahou Lan and the three hundred soldiers from the city and quietly came to the outside of the city.

Tonight's night sè is quite drowsy.

Maybe it's because of the hard fight, and even God doesn't bother to come to care for him again, so the clouds are thick, and I can't see my fingers.

With his feet on the ground, Liu Chuang immediately summoned Xia Houlan. The two discussed, gathered their manpower, and ran towards the Xianbei camp.

Along the way, there were corpses everywhere.

The air was mixed with the smell of blood and saltpeter, which was quite uncomfortable.

Liu Chuang had already asked Shi Jian about the path clearly, and under the cover of night, he unknowingly and unconsciously went around to the flank of the Xianbei camp.

This Xianbei camp was built near the water of Chongqing.

On one side was the lush reeds, covering Liu Chuang and others to come outside the camp.

The wind blowing from the direction of Louzi Mountain has a hint of coolness. Liu Chuang squatted down and put his hand on the pergola to look out, only to see that in the Xianbei camp, the lights were shining, the neighing of horses was heard from time to time, and there was a burst of sāo stench from a distance. More than a dozen Xianbei soldiers walked out of the camp speaking Xianbei dialect, each carrying two buckets in their hands. They fetched water from the river and then returned to the camp.

At the gate of the camp, there were a few soldiers guarding it, but it seemed that none of them were doing anything.

"Childe, this seems to be the horse camp of the Xianbei people."

Liu Chuang was stunned, and immediately revealed a sudden sè.

Since the Battle of Liucheng had evolved into a siege battle, the horses of the Xianbei people were managed in one place.

And the camp in front of him is obviously the war horse concentration camp of the Xianbei people...... Liu Chuang's eyes rolled, and he suddenly came to mind.

"God help me...... Hengruo, I can't say that we can win a big victory and solve the siege of Liucheng. ”

Xiahou Lan was stunned when she heard this, revealing a look of surprise.

But he saw Liu Chuang beckoning to him, and whispered a few words in his ear, "In the past, the Youtian Single Fire Ox Formation defeated the Yan people, and now we will follow the example of the sages and ask these Xianbei people to suffer a big loss." (To be continued.) )
