Chapter 324: The Cavalry Battalion Assembles! (a)

On the night of early July, Tobu Castle, which had been tense for a day and a night, was finally attacked by Zhuang Shaoyou's army.

Huang Zhong of Jiaoxian City led 3,000 elites to attack the east gate of Dongwu, Zhu County's hired with three brigades of men and horses to attack the west gate, and Zhuang Shaoyou personally led nearly 10,000 men and horses from his headquarters to attack the north gate. Siege three is missing one, it is the best strategy to attack the city! There are still 25,000 Yellow Turban troops in the city, if there is no hope for them to stay, and they are ruthless and fight Zhuang Shaoyou to the death, then the losses under their command will definitely be great.

In the first round, nearly 1,000 ballistas and dozens of rocket ballistas fired a salvo at the head of the city, shooting Tobu Castle like a hedgehog, shocking the defenders of the city and demoralizing them. The second round was a solo performance by rocket ballistas, but this time it was not rockets, but flyers!

In two quarters of an hour, snow flakes flew throughout Tobu Castle!

The first evil must be done, regardless of the servant! Those who go out of the city and surrender within half an hour are not to blame!

Kill the thief leader Zhao Ri and reward 20 million! Capture alive, reward 50 million!

Whoever kills the thief Liu Hu will be rewarded with 10 million! Capture alive, 20 million reward!

There is also a reward for killing the rest of the main leaders of the Yellow Turbans!

The Yellow Turban Army, which had been frightened by the first round of salvos of nearly 1,000 ballistas just now, was already desperate, but when they heard that there was still a way to live, they suddenly ignited a raging hope, and they rushed out of the city to surrender one by one.

Zhao Ri and Liu Hu's faces turned green, and they ordered the Yellow Turban wrestlers of the descendants under their command to supervise the battle in the whole city, and those who disobeyed the order would be killed!

When the order was issued, Tobu Castle screamed for a while, hundreds of surrenderers were executed on the spot, and the rest of the Yellow Turbans immediately shrank back, not daring to act rashly.

Zhuang Shaoyou had expected that the bandit leader was still there, how could it be so easy to provoke infighting? So, the Rocket Ballista is once again in full swing and raises the bounty!

Whoever kills the thief Zhao Ri will be rewarded with 50 million! Capture alive, reward 100 million!

Whoever kills the thief Liu Hu will be rewarded with 30 million! Capture alive, reward 50 million!

The rewards for killing the rest of the main leaders of the Yellow Turban Army also exceeded 10 million!

Those who do not surrender within half an hour will be punished as a crime of treason, and the clan will be exterminated!

The turmoil that had just subsided was brewing again, and even many low-level Yellow Turban wrestlers were excited, fifty million! In addition to Zhao Ri and Liu Hu, there are seven or eight big leaders in the city, any of which are more than 10 million!

Those who do not descend will be exterminated! Although many people no longer have relatives, there are not a few who have relatives! Otherwise, how could there be so many yellow turbans following?

After the leaflets, the ballista corrected its direction and fired a second salvo, and the rocket ballista was also loaded with rockets and fired indiscriminately at the city. Soon, Tobu Castle was on fire.

Coercion, inducement, and one of the three is missing.

Dongwu City is not in chaos, the Yellow Turban Army and the attached Yellow Turbans are fighting with Zhao Ri and Liu Hu's cronies, and the situation is out of control!

Zhao Ri and Liu Hu saw that the situation was not good, and immediately made a decision, each with his cronies, and escaped from the south gate with the belongings that had been prepared long ago.

The south of Tobu City is the southeast remnant of Mount Tai, the terrain inside is complicated, as long as you enter the mountain, it will be difficult for Zhuang Shaoyou's army to catch up! Although the results of many years of painstaking operation in Qingzhou are gone, which makes Zhao Ri and Liu Hu secretly hateful, but Qingshan is not worried about running out of firewood! As long as people are still there, there is hope for a comeback!

Zhuang Shaoyou received a report from the scouts that a small group of Yellow Turban troops had escaped in the south of the city. Zhuang Shaoyou guessed that it was the bandit leader of the city, but now he had no time to pay attention to it, and with an order, 20,000 troops attacked the city, and the Yellow Turban Army, which had long been demoralized, was about to collapse at the touch of a button, and after losing the restraint of the leader, they began to flee from the south gate.

Zhuang Shaoyou led the first division to encircle and suppress the remnants of the enemy in the city, and sent Ping and Huang Zhong to the south to pursue the rout of the Yellow Turban Army, and the order was: Those who do not surrender will be killed! It must be returned after dawn.

The next day, Huang Zhong and the army returned to Dongwu, and Zhuang Shaoyou ordered the whole army to rest and count the results.

In this battle, more than 10,000 people of the Yellow Turban Army were annihilated, nearly 10,000 prisoners were captured, and the two bandit leaders Zhao Ri and Liu Hu led more than 3,000 people to flee south, and the rest were scattered.

After resting for half a day, Zhuang Shaoyou stayed behind to garrison the city, sort out internal affairs, interrogate prisoners, and then lead the army north to Anqiu with Huang Zhong!

Anqiu City, Li Cheng was anxious, but he was helpless, looking forward to the handsome Guan Hai being able to quickly send someone to pick him up and return to the city, otherwise it would be troublesome to be surrounded here! Last night's night attack on Anqiu, Li Cheng's men and horses only brought a day's dry food, and after tonight, they will run out of food, and Anqiu City doesn't even have a hair!

Beihai City, Guan Hai has already received the news that Li Cheng was trapped in Anqiu, and also knew that Tai Shici's five thousand iron horsemen came to Qingzhou, and he was very anxious, the seven thousand men and horses besieged in Anqiu were all owned by Guan Hai and Li Cheng, if this man and horse were eaten, it would be troublesome!

After hesitating again and again, Guan Hai could only consult with the public.

"Gong, this commander wants to send troops to take Vice Marshal Li back to the city, I don't know if Gong's cavalry can ......"

Gong shook his head categorically and said: "Dashuai, don't count on it, it's not that my father is reluctant, but because it's impossible to win!" Zhuang Shaoyou must still have a backhand! ”

Guan Hai was very disappointed, three hundred cavalry against Wu Qian's cavalry, naturally there was no chance of victory, and when the scout came to report, he made it very clear that Wu Qian's elite iron cavalry was not inferior to Gong's subordinates! Moreover, Zhuang Shaoyou even made the infantry so vigorous, how could the cavalry not put in more effort? But he asked with some doubts: "Listen to the tone of the public, the prince seems to be very familiar with this Zhuang Shaoyou?" Could it be that Gong had dealt with him before? ”

Hearing this, the public was silent for a while, and said: "Marshal, the cavalry under the command of this prince was brought out by Zhuang Shaoyou!" Do you understand that? At the beginning of Jizhou was chased by Huangfu Song, Zhuang Shaoyou in order to cover me, with half of the men and horses to lead away the chasing soldiers, this duke took the remaining 700 people to cross the river to Qingzhou, now only these 300 people are left, this duke is also ashamed of the old man! ”

Guan Hai's heart set off a monstrous wave, and Leng was speechless for a long time. After a long time, his eyes suddenly lit up and asked, "Gong, according to what you said, Zhuang Shaoyou was also our own person before?" ”

Gongwenyan was slightly stunned, nodded, and shook his head again: "I don't know either!" ”

Just then, there was a rush of footsteps outside, and a scout came to report:

"Qi Qi Marshal, Gong, last night Zhuang Shaoyou's army conquered Tobu City! After taking Tobu Castle, Zhuang Shaoyou waved his army to the north, and it is expected that he will arrive at the Anqiu boundary at dusk today! ”

When Guan Hai heard this, he was shocked inexplicably, this wave has not been settled, and wave after wave, the high walls of Tobu City are wide, and they were broken overnight? Thinking of this, Guan Hai couldn't help but shudder, although Beihai is stronger than Dongwu, how long can it last? Two nights? Three nights? A month is definitely no fun!

"Gong, what you said earlier about attaching to Zhuang Shaoyou can still count?"

Gongwen Yan said calmly: "What my father said is naturally counted!" ”

Guan Hai immediately put on a smiling face: "Anqiu's bet is a public victory, Ben Shuai has made up his mind to invest in Zhuang Shaoyou's account, I don't know if the public has a way to ......"

Gong stood up: "This father will go to Anqiu in person!" The brethren of Beihai will be appeased by the great commander! ”

Guan Hai patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Ben Shuai must be ready!" It's just that the specific matters of this attachment still need to be discussed! ”

Gong smiled slightly: "As long as the handsome man is sincere, presumably Zhuang Shaoyou will be properly settled!" Isn't Taishan Wang Sun Guan in Puyang now? ”

Guan Hai was overjoyed when he heard this: "Thank you so much!" The marshal wishes the stallion success! Tens of thousands of brothers in Beihai City have all asked for the public! ”

In the afternoon, Zhuang Shaoyou's army drove outside Anqiu City, and Li Cheng of the city almost fainted when he heard the news, but now he is dead! It's just to raise your hand and surrender, and now you don't even have a bargaining chip for negotiation! The elite of Beihai City are all here, Zhuang Shaoyou doesn't need to attack at all, as long as he is besieged for three days, the city can collapse without a fight!

Zhuang Shaoyou and Tai Shici joined forces and surrounded Anqiu City, the north, west and east were heavily guarded, only the south was undefended, Li Cheng smiled bitterly at this, the siege was missing one, and it was common sense to use soldiers! You can run as you like, but the south is Chengyang, and Zhuang Shaoyou still has 8,000 people over there, and there is no way to escape!

Zhuang Shaoyou knew that the city's Yellow Turban Army raided Anqiu, and he definitely didn't bring too much grain and grass, so he didn't plan to attack at all, so he asked his subordinates to be careful about it, and then ordered the army to rest, and fought fiercely all night last night, and came in a hurry after resting for two hours this morning, and the army was also exhausted.

At dusk, Zhuang Shaoyou was in the tent to deal with military affairs, and a scout came to report that a team of cavalry from Beihai City, numbering three hundred, was rushing towards Anqiu at full speed, and it was expected to arrive in two quarters of an hour!

Zhuang Shaoyou heard the news inexplicably, three hundred cavalry? What can be done? Come to die? No one can be so stupid!

Suddenly, Zhuang Shaoyou thought of a possibility, and immediately couldn't sit still anymore, got up and shouted: "Qin Ling! Is Qinling there? ”

Qin Ling is an old man who followed Zhuang Shaoyou from the Jizhou Yellow Turban Army, and has been serving as Tai Shici's deputy all these years, and is currently the colonel and deputy commander of the First Cavalry Division, which is also a small achievement. Zhuang Shaoyou is still very nostalgic, but Qinling has always been very safe, and his reputation in the cavalry division has always been good, and no one is unconvinced.

This time, when Zhuang Shaoyou gave the order to Tai Shici, he wrote that he would come to Qingzhou in person, but the reason was not said, although Tai Shici wondered, it is said that the main general will go on the expedition, and it is normal for the deputy general to stay behind, this order is really a little strange.

After a while, Qin Ling hurriedly ran over and saluted, "General, are you looking for me?" ”

Zhuang Shaoyou calmed down: "Go, call the person who should be called, and set off in half an hour!" ”

Qin Ling had already received Zhuang Shaoyou's order, and brought all the old brothers from Jizhou to Qingzhou, and after listening to Zhuang Shaoyou's order, he immediately understood.

A quarter of an hour later, north of Anqiu City, crossed the pontoon bridge.

Zhuang Shaoyou stood there quietly with more than 200 horses, and to the south of the pontoon bridge behind him, Tai Shici also heard the news and rushed over with people and horses, but was stopped by Zhuang Shaoyou and forbade him to cross the river.

A group of cavalry galloped in the distance, Tai Shici was very anxious, this group of cavalry came out of Beihai City, obviously the Yellow Turban Army was in charge of the Hai Department, and the general only brought more than two hundred cavalry, was it too risky?

Soon, the cavalry came to the front, Tai Shici's heart hung in his throat, and he was ready to respond, once there was an accident, he would immediately wave his army across the bridge to rescue!

The cavalry from afar came to a close place, but they also slowly stopped.

Zhuang Shaoyou looked at the familiar figure in the distance, the pretty face that haunted him, his eyes were slightly moist, he barely retracted his mind, stepped forward, and shouted: "The cavalry battalion is assembled!" ”
