Chapter 42: Reinforcements
Zhang He looked at the battle report in his hand, slowly put down the wine glass in his hand, and took out a silk handkerchief from his arms.
elegantly wiped the wine stains from the corners of his mouth, but a sneer appeared on the corners of his mouth.
"No wonder Li Kan's rabble didn't retreat, it turned out that Zhao Yun's reinforcements came."
"General Junyi, although this Zhao Yun has brought reinforcements, it is only more than 10,000 people, why be afraid, my army is twice as large as that Zhao Yun's army, tomorrow I will ask for battle, and our soldiers are enough to annihilate Zhao Yun, the thief, in one fell swoop, capture Zhao Yun alive, and take his head."
Zhang Hezao's next general walked out of the battle, and at first glance, it was Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan.
"Ahem......"
Xu Huang, who was standing opposite Zhang Liao, walked out, bowed, arched his hand, and said.
"General Junyi, Zhao Yun, this little thief is scheming, and he must not be taken lightly, besides, the candidate under his command, Yang Qiu has a reputation in the land of Xiliang, although he was not reused under Han Sui before, but under Zhao Yun, he has an even more brilliant record than before, not to mention that we have been defeated by Zhao Yun's gun."
Hearing this, Zhang He frowned slightly, but Zhang Liao frowned disapprovingly and scolded Xu Huang.
"A thief who only knows the courage of a puppet and can only conspire and trick, what qualifications do you have to enter our eyes, if you are not his opponents, I, Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan, are not afraid of him! If I fight with him tomorrow, I will personally take his head, so that everyone in the world can see whether he is Zhao Yun or I Zhang Liao is powerful. ”
Xu Huang was originally kindly admonished, but he didn't expect to be ridiculed by Zhang Liao's words, his face suddenly changed, and anger came from it.
"Mr. Cheng Yu, what do you think?"
Zhang He put away the silk handkerchief in his hand, and turned his eyes to Cheng Yu, who was sitting there without saying a word.
Hearing this, Cheng Yu arched his hand, slowly stood up, and said.
"General Junyi, this Zhao Yun, originally we all thought that he was just a fierce general with extraordinary force, but he repeatedly used tricks to break the enemy, but he also had some resourcefulness. Yu felt that General Jun Yi could neither be too contemptuous nor too serious about dealing with this Zhao Yun, after all, with Zhao Yun's soldiers from just two counties, how could he be the opponent of our army. ”
After speaking, the eyes of everyone in the big tent looked at Zhang He, waiting for Zhang He to decide.
Zhang He didn't say anything, just gently picked up the immortal drunk on the table, raised his head, drank the remaining immortal drunk in one gulp, took out the silk handkerchief again, and gently wiped the corners of his mouth.
Then, Zhang He slowly looked at everyone.
"Zhao Yun, this little thief, can't be a big thing after all, although he is a little deceitful, what can he do about it.
Pass my order, tomorrow Gongming and Wen Yuan will lead 5,000 troops to fight with me, and this general will use absolute strength to destroy this thief who can only play tricks. ”
Zhang He worshiped Cao Cao for many years, and has always had quite a lot of military exploits and enjoys a good reputation.
As for Zhao Yun, in his opinion, he was just from a humble family, and he relied on his martial arts and those conspiracies to raise an army.
Although Zhao Yun is quite favored by Cao Cao, in Zhang He, Xu Huang, Zhang Liao and other people who have followed Cao Cao for many years, they are just a scheming villain after all.
Just like in this era, the clan looks down on the Hanmen, and it is natural for them to look down on Zhao Yun.
As soon as Zhang He gave a big military order, the soldiers outside the tent walked in, saying that Zhao Yun's messenger had arrived and was asking to see Zhang He outside the tent.
As soon as Cheng Yu heard that Zhao Yun had sent someone to come, he was busy persuading Zhang He, and Zhang He let the messenger in.
After a while, Zhao Yun's messenger entered the big tent with several entourages, bowed and saluted, and said.
"In the messenger of General Zhao, come to meet General Zhang He, my lord has always been courteous to Prime Minister Cao Cheng, but I don't know why General Zhang He led the army to attack this time, and specially ordered me to come to ......"
"Gongming, Wen Yuan, behead him for me."
Before the messenger could finish speaking, Zhang He said lightly.
The messenger was stunned, and before he could react, Xu Huang and Zhang Liao pulled out their long swords at their waists at the same time and ran towards his neck.
The huge head rolled on the ground, splattered with blood, and the retinue of the messenger was immediately frightened and panicked.
Zhang He looked at several entourages and said lightly.
"Wait until you go back and tell your lord that Ben will only give him two options, one is to obediently surrender the city, and Ben General can guarantee that he will be a rich man in the future, as for the other, it is the same as his fate, the head falls to the ground, okay, you can get out."
The entourage trembled and listened to Zhang He's words, hurriedly picked up the head of Zhao Yun's messenger on the ground, and then rushed out of the big tent quickly.
Zhang Liao raised the long sword in his hand to the back of his entourage and scolded loudly,
"You tell Zhao Yun that little thief, I, Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan, are waiting to fight with him to see if he is seven in and seven out, and he is brave of ten thousand! If he doesn't have that force, let him wash his neck and wait for death! ”
Under the threat of the two, several entourages took out the Cao army camp in embarrassment.
……
The county seat of Ji County.
Above the city, Zhao Yun stood with a gun, staring at the Cao army camp not far away with a pair of eagle eyes, listening to the scouts next to him about the Cao army's false information.
"Lord, since the third general Zhang He led the army to attack my Tianshui, then I would just fight against him directly, why do you want to send a messenger?"
Hou Xuan and Yang Qiu, who were beside him, asked puzzledly.
"Our real enemies at the moment are Zhang Lu and Liu Zhang, if we can avoid fighting Cao Jun, it is naturally the best, even if there is little hope, we have to give it a try." Zhao Yun sighed softly and said.
As soon as the words fell, I saw several horsemen rushing towards the city, it was the messenger sent by Zhao Yun to Cao Jun, but I didn't expect to come back after such a while.
Zhao Yun ordered the soldiers to open the city gate, and several entourages ran up to the city in a panic, all kneeling in front of Zhao Yun, one by one lost their souls, and they couldn't even say a word for a while.
"Why don't you speak, your lord?"
Zhao Yun saw that they looked like this, and the messenger did not come back, so he immediately asked suspiciously.
"Back to the lord, I was ordered to go to see Zhang He, the messenger just saw Zhang He, and was about to convey the meaning of the lord, who expected, before the words were finished, Xu Huang and Zhang Liao cut off the messenger's head."
One of the attendants replied with a trembling body, and then slowly put the head of the messenger wrapped in his hand in front of Zhao Yun.
Behind Zhao Yun, Xu Shu, Hou Xuan, and Yang Qiu looked at the human head in the hands of their entourage, and their faces suddenly changed color.
"Zhang He, this guy dares to kill my messenger!"
Zhao Yun angrily smashed his fist on the female wall, and anger raged on his delicate face.
"Lord, that Zhang He and the others not only killed the messenger, but also said that you would surrender, saying that if you don't surrender, you will end up with the same fate as the messenger. That Zhang Liao also said that he wanted to try his martial arts with the lord, and if the lord didn't have the ability, he would let the lord's head fall to the ground. ”
