The battle between Wei Yan and Pang De was indeed the most exciting battle that Zhao Shu had seen in so many years since the death of the Five Tiger Generals. I really didn't expect Cao Wei to have such a strong and strong general left, and he couldn't help sighing on the way back to the camp. Next to him, Wei Yan thinks very highly of himself on weekdays, but today he has never defeated Pang De, so he is a little unhappy in his heart, so he asks for orders to fight again in the future, and Zhao Shu has no reason to allow it. It's a pity that Wei Yan prepared for a night, and the news of Cao Rui's death came that night, the emperor died, the army in Luoyang City was in turmoil, and Pang De did not dare to lead troops to fight again, but strictly guarded the city defense.

Luoyang is the former capital of several dynasties, the city is high and deep, and Pang De and others will defend each other to the death, Zhao Shu did not dare to attack forcibly, so he had to besiege the city and discuss another plan to break the enemy. A few days later, Guo Huai came with the news that Jia Kui and Wen Xiu were guarding Luyang, because they lost Luoyang's supplies, there was a lack of food in the city, and they heard that the emperor had died on his northern tour, and the army in the city mutinied. Jia and Wen knew that the lonely city was difficult to defend, so they led their troops to break through, but they were outnumbered and both died in battle. Guo Huai's army had passed through Luyang and went all the way north to attack Luoyang with Zhao Shu.

After the two armies met, Yu Gui heard that the defender of Luoyang was Pang De, so he asked for orders to go to the city to persuade him to surrender. Zhao Shutian had reinforcements and also had the heart to attack Luoyang, knowing that Yu Guiding could not convince Pang De, so he took all his troops and horses to the city. Yu Gui rode alone and shouted loudly: "Please ask General Pang Lao to come out and answer." Pound in the city saw that he was familiar with him, but he did not remember who it was, so he asked, "Who is in the city?" When Yu Gui saw him come out, he immediately bowed and said, "Uncle is fine, little nephew Yu Gui." Pang Decai felt that the eyebrows and eyes were indeed very similar, but he hadn't seen him for many years, and Yu Gui had already honed from a young junior to a mature general. Guessing the meaning in his heart, he said in a deep voice: "You and I belong to the enemy country, and this uncle can't afford it." ”

Yu Gui said again: "In the past, if it wasn't for my uncle who desperately saved the life of his little nephew, the little nephew would have become a ghost under Cao Pi's knife, and he would have survived to this day." The uncle's grace of reconstruction, the little nephew is unforgettable. "Pang De saved Yu Gui at the beginning, just to repay Yu Gui's grace of not killing, where could he have thought that Yu Gui's soldiers would be under Luoyang City today? He sighed, "If I had known that there was today, I would not have saved you in the first place." Yu Gui persuaded again: "Why is my uncle so stubborn? Now that my general's army is pressing, Luoyang is difficult to protect day and night, Cao Rui and Cao Zhen are still fleeing north to avoid the edge, why should my uncle go against the will of heaven? ”

"Needless to say." Pang De interrupted Yu Gui in the city and said, "I know what you mean, but the old man is deeply favored by Emperor Taizu, how can he switch to others?" Your father is loyal to Han, and the old man is loyal to Wei, each of them is his master. In the past, your father captured me, with a knife and axe, and the old man did not surrender, not to mention that today there are 100,000 armor in the city, and there is enough food and grass, how can you surrender to the enemy? Your father spared my life at the beginning, and the old man saved you, which is enough to be quite. From then on, you and I have nothing to do with each other, if you want to enter Luoyang, although you bring troops to attack, the old man swears to accompany you. ”

"Uncle......" Yu Gui still had to be persuaded again, and Pang De had already ordered the crossbowmen in the city to prepare, and shouted: "If you don't retreat, the old man will not be polite." Yu Gui had no choice but to turn around to see Zhao Shu, saying that Pang De was stubborn and refused to surrender. Zhao Shu didn't think it was strange, if Pang De was willing to surrender, he didn't have to wait until today, and immediately ordered the whole army to forcibly attack Luoyang. At this time, Guo Huai's Jingzhou army also arrived, and there were more than 100,000 Han troops outside the city, so Zhao Shuzi was at the west gate, and Guo Huai was ordered to be in the south, Wei Yan in the north, and Huan Yi in the east, attacking from all sides.

Although the Han army was a victorious army with high morale, it was also a long-fought soldier and a little tired. However, the soldiers of the Wei army in the city were guarding the capital, all of them forgot about life and death, and fought bloody battles to the end. After several days of continuous attack, the corpses of the soldiers of the two armies were piled up and down the city wall, and Zhao Shu saw that he suffered heavy casualties, so he had to temporarily stop the attack and call the generals to discuss countermeasures. Guo Huainai said: "Luoyang city is strong, the armor is sufficient, it is better to surround it for the time being, divide the troops to attack Mengjin, Chenggao and other places, then Luoyang is a lonely city, and it will be destroyed without attacking." ”

Zhao Shu shook his head and said: "Although the plan is a good plan, it's just that Luoyang is the old capital of Cao Wei, and there is enough grain and grass in the city, and our army transports grain for thousands of miles. Moreover, Cao Rui moved the capital to the north, if he waited for his rest to be completed, he would definitely come to the country, and our army would not be able to resist. "And they all offered many schemes, but they were not perfect. was discussing with each other, and Xiao Ben outside hurriedly entered the account and said, "General, thousands of joys." ”

Zhao Shu hurriedly asked, "What's the happy thing?" Xiao Ben Nai said: "The spies reported that Cao Zhen took the young emperor into Yecheng, but was killed by Cao Zhi, and now Cao Zhi is a self-proclaimed general and controls the military and politics of Cao Wei. Hearing that Wei was in turmoil and Cao Zhen was dead, all the generals in the tent were very happy, and Huan Yi said: "This day helps the Han." The general can tie this news to the arrow, and order the sergeant to shoot into the city, and most of the soldiers in the city are Cao Zhen's old department, which must be the army's turmoil, and everyone is in danger. Zhao Shu said deeply, he ordered someone to copy thousands of copies of the news of Cao Zhi's usurpation, and ordered the soldiers to shoot into the city that night.

The next day, the army marched to attack the city, and the Cao army was not as fierce as the previous days, and the Han army attacked the city more and more times. Zhao Shuzhi was so anxious that he collected his troops and returned to the camp, and then ordered someone to transcribe the news of Cao Zhen's death, as well as persuade him to surrender and shoot into the city. After two days, it really paid off, Zhuge Dan in the city shot out a letter of surrender, he was ordered to guard the south gate, and he was willing to take the night to raise a fire as a number, and dedicated the city gate to welcome the Han army into the city. When the generals saw the great joy, they all geared up and asked for their lives to fight. At this time, the Han army won one after another, and because of the internal changes of Cao Wei, they did not suspect that there was fraud, and the south gate was where Guo Huai's troops were located. So Zhao Shu ordered Guo Huai to see the opportunity, but the other three gates also sent troops to attack to disperse Pang De's forces.

Wei Yan was not assigned the task of attacking the city, and he was very unhappy, and he was a little sullen when he returned to the tent. Jiang Wei has been with him for a long time, how can he not know? Nai secretly said: "It is a blessing rather than a curse that the general is not allowed to lead troops into the city." Wei Yan said unhappily: "I am the general of the front, but such a great achievement was sent to Guo Huai, which is the general's partiality." Jiang Wei said with a smile: "The general has won successive victories, and he only said that Cao Wei has changed, so he will not be on guard." The last general expected that Zhuge Sheng's letter would inevitably be deceitful. ”

"Why is that?" Wei Yan said in disbelief: "Now that Luoyang is besieged, and Shangguan Cao Zhen is dead again, it is reasonable for him to come down at this moment." Jiang Weifu shook his head and said: "Zhuge Dan is desperately fleeing back to Luoyang from Runan and refusing to surrender to Soochow, which shows that he still has a bit of loyalty. Now that the city of Luoyang is strong and the armor is sufficient, and the news of Cao Zhen's death was spread by our army, how can he really believe it? Therefore, the last general expected that there must be deception in it, but it was Pound's plan to lure the enemy when he saw that our army had been surrounded for a long time and did not retreat. Wei Yan nodded in disbelief, and then asked, "Why didn't you say it in the big tent, but instead tried your best to fight with us and the others?" ”

Jiang Wei fell to the ground and said, "The last general only has the general in his heart. Knowing that the general squeezed out the general and reused his henchmen Guo Huai, Huan Yi and others, he refused to explain in person. At this moment, tell the general whether to remind the general or not, and let the general decide for himself. Wei Yan looked at Jiang Wei, who was lying on the ground and pleading guilty, and hesitated for a long time before slowly saying, "You get up and speak." ”

Besides, when Guo Huai returned to the camp, he began to arrange for entering the city. After many years of fighting, he finally wanted to completely revive the Han Dynasty, and returned to the long-cherished wish of the old capital, thinking that after the battle tonight, his name would be recorded in history forever, Guo Huai was extremely excited. "Father." Guo Tong did not wait for his father to assign the generals, so he went out first and said: "The child is willing to be the front." Ma Bing was beside him, and he was not far behind and said: "General, my subordinates are willing to go with the young general." Guo Huai was about to nod his head in agreement, but he heard the guards outside the tent say: "General, the general sent someone to ask for a meeting." Guo Huai then asked the two to step back for the time being, and said, "Hurry up, please." ”

After a while, seeing Ye Feng enter, Guo Huai stepped down from his position and asked, "Come to the end of the world, I don't know what the general commands?" Ye Fengnai said: "The general thought about it again and again, and felt that Zhuge Day's letter was fraudulent, so please be careful." Guo Huai had already planned to go out with his troops, but he didn't expect Zhao Shu to suddenly send Ye Feng to say that Zhuge was cheating, and he couldn't help but say: "The general's intention is to cancel tonight's battle?" Ye Feng nodded and said, "Exactly." Guo Huai then smiled and said: "The general is too cautious? Ye Fengnai replied: "Our army's victory is in sight, and the general is unwilling to take risks, as a matter of course." Please also ask the general to obey the general's wishes, and the last general will rush to convey this order to General Huan. Although Guo Huai felt a little unwilling, Zhao Shu had never expected anything bad, so he nodded and sent Ye Feng out of the account.

After coming back, Guo Tong preemptively asked, "Father, are you really not sending troops?" Guo Huai nodded and replied: "Since the general has an order, he can't disobey it for his father, so he ordered it to go down, and all the generals went back to the camp to rest." Guo Tong sighed lightly, and was about to receive the order to come out, but Ma Bing next to him said: "The young general is slow." Fu stepped forward and said, "General, my subordinates have something to say." ”

Guo Huai turned to look, frowned slightly, and asked, "What do you say?" Ma Bingsui said: "My subordinates think that tonight's battle cannot be canceled." Guo Huai was willing to cancel it in his heart, but the military order could not be violated, so he shouted lightly: "The general's order, who dares to disobey?" Ma Bing fell to the ground and said, "General, our army has besieged the city for a long time, and it has not been able to attack for a long time, and the soldiers have suffered heavy casualties. Now that he finally has the opportunity to capture Luoyang, the general hesitates, and his subordinates are really unwilling. ”

Thinking of the sergeants who had been killed and injured in the past few days, Guo Huai also felt a little sad, and helped Ma Bing up and said: "General Ben also feels a pity, it's just that the general has an order, how dare I send troops without authorization?" He waved his hand and sighed, "Go down." Ma Bing had no choice but to turn around and leave the account, but after taking two steps, he turned around and bowed down and said: "General, if we wait for the troops to take Luoyang, the general will not be punished." Guo Huai was still hesitating, and Guo Tong also followed: "Yes." Father, if my father sent troops to capture Luoyang, how could the general blame? ”

Guo Huai saw that the two of them were eager to fight, and he was also a little active in his heart, and hesitated: "It's just that the general said that Zhuge was deceitful, how should this be good?" Ma Bing listened to his loose tone, his heart was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "The general is too suspicious, thinking that the Wei army has been defeated in a row, Luoyang is a lonely city, and there is an accident in the court, Zhuge is coming to surrender, how can there be fraud?" Even if there is fraud, it is very easy to break, and the subordinates bring their own troops in front, and the general leads the army to respond in the rear. If there is an accident, the general can raise troops outside, and his subordinates will be killed from the inside, and they will attack twice, so why be afraid of the tricks of the Wei army? Guo Tong is young and vigorous, and he has always been good friends with Ma Bing, and he also said: "The child is willing to go with him." Guo Huai also wanted to take advantage of tonight to capture Luoyang, but he was unwilling to disobey Zhao Shu's order, and replied: "It's better to ask the general first." ”

"General." Ma Bing said again: "The general has always been cautious, and he will not agree to this matter, and he will waste a good opportunity in vain." As the general of Zhendong, the governor of the military is on the side of the military, and he has a special order for the general to 'act when he sees the opportunity', so he does not have to tell the general every time he sends troops, just wait for the victory, and then say that it is not too late. Guo Huai looked at the two, nodded anyway, and said, "That's it, you wait and prepare, and attack Luoyang tonight." Ma Bingcong failed to apprentice, and he felt that Zhao Shu was biased, so he wanted to make great achievements to show his talents, so he was eager to fight. After hearing Guo Huai's consent, he was very happy, and he prepared for the account with Guo Tongyi.

Guo Huai hesitated in the tent for a moment, and finally lifted the sword and came out of the tent......
