Report, General, the front of the thief army has arrived, and it is less than five miles away from my Linzi City!"

On August 20, when the defeated soldiers who fled back to Linzi from June 6 heard the news of Qin Qi's defeat and death and the fall of Xi'an City, Xiahoudun was greatly shocked and hurriedly summoned all the generals to the city guard's mansion, intending to urgently negotiate the current situation, but before the discussion began, he saw that a rotating lieutenant had already hurried over, and he reported with a worried face.

"Hmm, let's go up to the city and have a look!"

This heard that the Youzhou army had been killed, Xiahou Tang also couldn't take care of himself to hold a military meeting, greeted, and then hurriedly went down the hall, led his generals straight to the north city gate, and then galloped five thousand Youzhou army cavalry has been outside the city more than 300 steps lined up in formation, the first iron-blooded banner embroidered with a huge "Zhao" word, under the banner, Zhao Yun rode a horse and stood with a spear, although there are not many soldiers and horses, but the momentum is extremely vigorous, the military appearance is neat, at a glance you can know that it is an elite division.

"Someone, give a big gift!"

Zhao Yun's eyes were very good, although he was far away, but Xiahoudun and the others had just appeared at the city saucer, he had already seen it clearly, and he didn't hesitate, and with a wave of his hand, he had already said the general with a cold voice, and immediately a soldier with a loud voice answered the promise loudly, carrying a big box, and rushed straight to the front of the city.

"Listen, the people in the city, my lord has a big gift to give to General Xiahou, and please hang down a basket. ”

Rao is city is full of swords, guns, bows and crossbows, but the Youzhou Army soldier who was ordered to go out was fearless, rode his horse directly to the front of the city, and shouted loudly.

"Come, do as you do. ”

Xiahoudun was obviously very curious about what Gongsun Ming was going to give, although his brows were slightly furrowed, but he did not refuse the proposal of the Youzhou Army soldier, only to see that he waved his hand, he had already broken his throat, and several of his own attendants responded loudly, hurriedly went to get ropes and bamboo baskets, and slowly hung down the city.

Although Linzi is adjacent to Zishui, but because of the towering bank of Zishui, there is no moat in its city, after the bamboo basket hangs down the city, the soldiers of the Youzhou Army who came to give gifts easily put the big box into the bamboo basket, and then, without waiting for the city head to say, he turned over on the horse's back and left.

"Big brother, it's better for the younger brother to open it. ”

After pulling the bamboo basket back to the city, several Cao soldiers hurriedly sent the big box to Xiahoudun, as soon as he saw this, Xiahoudun leaned over to open the lid of the box, but before he could do it, Xiahouyuan, who was standing aside, had already made a suggestion.

"It's okay, it's ...... from a certain source"

Xiahoudun shook his head indifferently, and as he spoke, he reached out and lifted the lid of the box, and when he saw the contents of the box clearly, Xiahoudun's eyes instantly widened, and he disappeared halfway through his words.

"Damn dog thief, dare to insult me like this, damn it, dog thief, damn it!"

Seeing that Xiahou Yuan's expression was wrong, Xiahou Yuan's curiosity couldn't help but rise, and he immediately cast his eyes on the box, and then there were two smeared lime heads in the box, one belonged to Qin Qi, and the other was Zhang Tai's level.

"The two generals are angry, this is Gongsun Xiaoer's method of agitating generals, and they must not fall for their tricks. ”

Seeing Xiahou Yuan jumping like this, Cheng Yu hurriedly glanced into the box, and the green tendons on his forehead also burst out, but his city was deep enough, but he didn't rush on the spot, but he immediately advised the Xiahou brothers.

"Bullshit, is it tolerable or unbearable, eldest brother, younger brother please lead the troops to attack, and the grandson and grandson will not give up!"

Xiahou Yuan's temper has never been good, except for Cao Cao, who can suppress him, no one in the army can obey him, Rao is Cheng Yu persuaded him bitterly, but how could Xiahou Yuan listen, he stomped his feet and roared.

"No, General Xiahou can't forget the confession of Ming Gong, you can only hold on, and you must not fight with the enemy!"

Seeing that Xiahou Yuan's emotions were out of control, and Xiahou Yuan's face was obviously determined to go out of the city to face the battle, Cheng Yuke couldn't stabilize his mind, and immediately moved out Cao Cao's strict order.

"Zhongde, the thief insulted me so much, if I don't fight a battle, but I am afraid that the army's heart will be shaken, according to a certain opinion, you still have to defeat the enemy for a while. ”

Xiahoudun is also a strong person, his heart is on fire, how can he just do it, even though Cheng Yu has carried out Cao Cao's big Buddha, but he still insists on fighting.

"General Xiahou can also fight, but you have to listen to a certain arrangement, otherwise, please cut off a certain head!"

Seeing that the Xiahou brothers were all about to fight, and although none of the generals on the side had ever seconded the proposal, everyone's faces were full of indignation, and Cheng Yu knew that if he insisted on not allowing it, he was afraid that it would really chill the hearts of the soldiers, and in desperation, he could only take a step back and say something.

"Zhong De's words are serious, if you have anything to say, please say it directly, just listen to it. ”

Seeing that Cheng Yu's attitude was so resolute, Xiahou didn't dare to really force Cheng Yu to be too ruthless, so he had to give him the right to plan this battle.

"That's good, this battle is only Xu Miaocai to fight, Yuan Rang must not be moved lightly, and, the city must be prepared with more archers, if the enemy is defeated, do not chase, if Miaocai is defeated, can not go back to the city directly, go straight around the city, the enemy will not dare to chase, Miaocai just go back to Niu Mountain to defend, and then, no matter how the thief army shows weakness or agitation, must not go down the mountain to fight, if you can abide by it, you will agree to Miaocai to fight, if you can't comply, please cut off a certain head!"

In view of the treachery of Gongsun Ming's always use of soldiers, Cheng Yu did not dare to be careless, and limited many aspects to death when making suggestions, leaving no room for retraction, and even did not hesitate to force each other to death again.

"Just follow Zhongde, and see that I went to cut off Zhao Yun's dog's head!"

Xiahou Yuan was defeated by Zhao Yun last time, and he has always been ashamed, and he has long been thinking about winning back a game, but at this time, he heard that Cheng Yu agreed to him to lead the troops to attack, how could he still stand, and he dropped a sentence of explanation, and he was going to go down to the city to attack with troops.

"Slow down, Miao Cai can't act recklessly, and take a deep breath first, wait until you are calm, and then it's not too late to go out of the city to fight!"

Rao is Xiahou Yuan had agreed to his proposal, but Cheng Yu was still relieved, and put forward another request, in this regard, Xiahou Yuan was really a little crying and laughing, but when he saw Cheng Yu's solemn face, he couldn't help it, so he could only take a deep breath for a while, and then he went down to the city......
