Chapter 236 The soldiers are coming to the city

"Shan Yu Mo smiled, what I said was true. Because for Wu Huan, there is only one choice, and that can only be to surrender to the general, otherwise, there will be a catastrophe. Zhang Qiang said with a serious face after listening to the sneering of the sneer.

"Doom, you're alarmist." He sat on the top and said with a nonchalant expression.

"Huh." After hearing this, Zhang Qiang also sneered and said: "Whether what I said is true or not, I must have a plan in my heart." You just need to think about it, why Gongsun Chan only suppressed you before, and even when he was against Liu Yu, he never thought of asking you for help, but now that he is suddenly going to unite, the reason for this should be the clearest. Wuhuan only has 30,000 soldiers, how can he be an opponent in the face of our general's hero, is it true that you really want to see Wuhuan be destroyed because of one of your wrong decisions? ”

"Shut up for me, come on, take him out for me." Badun was stimulated by Zhang Qiang's words, and waved his hand in anger. Immediately, his own soldiers stepped forward and carried him out. Only one person was left in the tent.

Badun's face was very unsightly at this time, he was really provoked by Zhang Qiang's words, and at the same time he was indeed a little scared.

Yes, in the past, when Gongsun Chan faced Wu Huan, he only blindly suppressed and demanded, when did he send an envoy to negotiate peace with him and form an alliance? Doesn't this mean that he is a little afraid of Zhang Chao, if even he is afraid, then why should he do it with others?

Because of these words, I was already a little bottomless in my heart, and I saw Ertie standing in the tent, so I asked, "What do you think of this matter?" ”

"Shan Yu..."Er Tie also frowned and said: "There is still some truth to Zhang Qiang's words. Zhang Chao was a general worshiped by the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and he heard the clansmen who had been to Jinyang City come back and said that there had changed a lot in the past two years, the people were well-fed and clothed, and the officers and soldiers were practicing day and night. There are many soldiers and enough food, such an opponent is far from what we Wuhuan can afford to provoke, if they really kill, I don't think they can resist for long. Originally, we could have relied on Gongsun Zhan, but the envoy he sent had already been killed, and on this basis, we were cut off from the road of union with him, so it seems that there is only one way to choose. ”

"Oh, you mean we're going to surrender Zhang Chao?" Ratun understood what Ertie meant.

"Yes, surrender may be the best option, if you can keep up with the general, and let the people of the clan live a good life, why not a good way out? It's just that even if you surrender, you have to ask for some conditions first. Erther nodded as he spoke.

This last sentence can be regarded as speaking to the heart of Badun. Take the opportunity to ask for some benefits for yourself, this is the truth.

"Well, yes, Erthep, you are right, so I will leave the matter of peace talks to you with all the authority, and give you 5,000 iron cavalry and 5,000 archers, remember, there are some things that must be negotiated before they can be allowed to enter Baitan City." Tonton said in an accented tone to Erther.

"Yes." After Elthep agreed, he began to go out to order troops.

At this time, in Baitan City, Zhang Chao's 15,000 elite horsemen had rushed to the side of the dense forest ten miles away from here.

Bai Tan said that it was a city, which is really an exaggeration. It's just a densely populated bazaar. Later, under the renovation of the order of Bunton, some fences were built around it, and they were barely fenced off.

The melee in the Central Plains, such an opportunity made the Wuhuan people, who were already small in number, unnoticeable, and they lived in peace for two years. But when Zhang Chao appeared ten miles outside the city with a large army, the people here still became a little panicked.

Among them, there are even people who have been to Bingzhou to sell leather, and the prestige of the general Zhang Chao can be described as thunderous. Now that they knew that it was the general who came, they all showed panic on their faces.

Compared with the panic of the people in Baitan City, the fifteen thousand soldiers led by Zhang Chao were all in high spirits, and this time they were only facing Wuhuan who was twice their strength, and they were not in the eyes of these elite soldiers at all. Even Lu Bu had asked for battle several times, asking to rush into Baitan City, and finally leveled Liucheng.

Regarding Lu Bu's invitation to fight, Zhang Chao's answer was that the people of Wuhuan were innocent. There are 100,000 inhabitants here, all of whom have suffered from the hardships of war and should not have been affected by war.

Zhang Chao cares about the people, this is not pretending, but a fact that all the people in the Bingzhou Group see in their eyes. Lu Bu also knew this truth, but if he didn't hurt the people, he would have to capture Wuhuan, and he would have no better way.

It was Zhang Chao, looking at Lu Bu's scratching of his ears and cheeks, and couldn't help but smile: "Feng Xian and rest assured, when it is useful to you, this time I will take the method of fighting and making peace to collect the entire Wu Huan, you just need to be ready to give an order at any time, and you can be ready to attack." ”

After pacifying Lu Bu, Zhang Chao called Xu Chu again and gave him some orders in his ear. Soon after, he was seen leaving the barracks with twenty iron guards dressed in the clothes of the Wuhuan people.

Soon after, that is, in half a day, there was a rumor in Baitan City, that is, the reason why Zhang Chao came to the land of Wuhuan with the army this time was to rescue them. The general promised that as long as the people surrendered and were willing to be Han people, they could live in Han land, get Han land, and enjoy the same treatment as the Han people.

As soon as the news came out, there was even more chaos in Baitan City. The people of Wuhuan, who had been hit hard by the war, really didn't want to experience the war, but now they knew that Zhang Chao's army was pressing the border and there was no way out to resist, so some people began to think about their future.

The garrisons in Baitan City were no more than a thousand horsemen. Their task is to be responsible for the security of the city in peacetime, and they do not belong to the regular army. Now the commotion in the city made them look at it, and they were powerless to solve it, so they could only look forward to the arrival of General Arteel, who had brought with him 10,000 soldiers.

The defenders of the city put their hopes on reinforcements, but they didn't know that the people of the city couldn't wait. I didn't want to suffer from the war, and after hearing others say how good the Central Plains was, especially how good the state was, one by one's hearts had already flown out. After Xu Chu entered the city with a lot of money and made a series of promises, on the same night, several big families in the city jointly invited the young future of the guard to go to the banquet, and took this opportunity to send their own nursing home to cooperate with Xu Chu to open the wooden door leading to the south of the white sandalwood.

Lu Bu, who had been waiting outside for a long time, easily rushed in with 10,000 vanguard troops. When the defenders in the city found out that the enemy army had entered, the vanguard army had already appeared in front of them, and in desperation, the 1,000 cavalry of Wuhuan, who had no desperate heart, surrendered.

As soon as Lu Bu took control of the security in Baitan City, he heard a report from the scout, saying that there was a Wuhuan army approaching in the north of Baitan City, and it should be Erthei's reinforcements.

"It's coming so fast." Lu Bu sighed and ordered his cavalry to gather, and at the same time ordered someone to report the news to Zhang Chao, who entered the city behind.

When Zhang Chao knew that Er Tie was coming with his troops, he gave Lu Bu the order to attack, and gave him a blow when the other party was not gaining a firm foothold from afar. The soldiers entered Baitan City without blood, it was for peace. Attacking Erthe's department is to fight, and this is the strategy of hitting and peacemaking.

After Lu Bu, who had been prepared, got the military order, he handed over the defense of the city to the Zhang Jiajun who came later, and then he took 10,000 vanguard troops out of the north gate to kill Erthee.

After getting the order of Shan Yu, Er Tie quickly ordered his troops, and then rushed towards Baitan City without stopping.

Ertie knows that only when he has territory in his hands and an army can he have the conditions to negotiate with Zhang Chao, otherwise, he is just a fat meat to be slaughtered by others.

It's just that Erther thought that his movements were fast enough, but he didn't know that Zhang Chao was faster than him, and Lu Buji on the opposite side led the army to cover up.

The pioneer scouts of the Ertie Division, who were marching towards Baitan City, saw the Lu Bu army coming from afar, but they couldn't see it very clearly because it was dark. However, the situation was reported to General Erther anyway.

"Don't worry, it must be the defenders of Baitan City who have come to welcome us." Ertie, who didn't think that Zhang Chao's speed would be so fast, said to his subordinates with confidence, and then the formation of the army was still in a marching state, without any defensive meaning.

Under such circumstances, Lu Bujun suddenly killed, and when the distance between the two sides was five miles, the scout also saw clearly who was coming, and hurriedly reported the situation back to Ertiel. After waiting for the Wuhuan army behind to know the situation, it was too late in time, and the vanguard army led by Lu Bu had already been killed.

Facing the unprepared Wuhuan army, Lu Bu immediately gave the order to attack. For a while, the vanguard army was like a gust of wind blowing, and everywhere it went, there were the voices of Wuhuan soldiers crying for their fathers and mothers.

Under the protection of his own soldiers, Ertie was defeated without fighting the vanguard army at all, and rushed back with about 2,000 fleeing cavalry and came to Pinggang Castle.

LΓΌ Bu has been chasing behind him, and after seeing Ertie call open the Pinggang Gate, he continued to lead the army to cover up, so that Ertie had to escape from Pinggang City, and he lost two cities in a row in one night. When he returned to Liucheng with his tired army, Lu Bu also came here with 7,000 vanguard troops and surrounded it.

Bun Dun just got up, and then he got a report from the sergeant below, knowing the fact that Zhang Chao's army had already come to the city, and he was immediately shocked that he didn't have time to put on his clothes, so he just put on a coat and went to the city gate, and saw the neatly dressed vanguard army from a distance.
