Chapter 212: Defeat
Ying Shao smiled slightly and said, "Zhang Zhonglang will work hard, Xiahou Sima will go in the evening, the sky is dark, you can hide more." ”
Xiahoudun raised his hand and said, "The last general will take the order." ”
Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao and the others didn't speak, and they were still worried about Ying Shao's strategy.
The Montenegrin army on the opposite side was suspicious of the sudden movement of the official army, and did not attack the city again, waiting for Sun Yan and others to open the city gate tomorrow and capture Julu in one fell swoop.
In the evening, Xiahoudun went out of the city, and 10,000 people set up a formation, shouting and scolding.
After all, it wasn't long before it got dark, and Xiahoudun was not afraid of provoking the Montenegrin army to attack the city, and 10,000 people stood in the open space, scolding Zhang Yan, Bai Huan, Yu Poison and others, from the eighteenth generation of ancestors to the present.
The neatness of 10,000 people, the scolding up to the sky, the lower cover is several miles away, plus the echoes everywhere, it is really endless and endless.
Until dark, Xiahoudun had no intention of withdrawing his troops, let the soldiers scold, rode horses, patrolled back and forth in front of the formation, and stared at the direction of the Black Mountain Army camp.
Estimating that the time was almost up, Xiahoudun withdrew his troops.
When he arrived at the head of the city, Xiahoudun raised his hand and said: "Envoy, the general originally wanted to hide three thousand, but I was afraid that it would be too obvious, so I only hid two thousand." ”
Ying Shao smiled slightly and said, "Xiahou Sima is thinking about it. Four thousand, almost. ”
When Zhao Yun heard this, he said, "Envoy, is it really okay?" ”
Ying Shao's smile remained unchanged and said, "Judging from the reaction of the Montenegrin Army today, they really don't have any resourceful people, so they shouldn't be able to see it." ”
Only then did everyone nod and look in the direction of the Black Mountain Army camp.
Just wait for tomorrow.
Just wait for tomorrow.
The people in the Montenegrin military camp also have this thought.
Seeing that Xiahoudun had gone back, Yu Poison was angry in his heart, and said viciously: "When I take down the giant deer, I will break the bones of Xiahoudun little by little!" ”
Bai Huan was still puzzled, and said, "What are the officials and soldiers going to do?" ”
It's too weird to come out in the evening and call for a formation until dark.
Zhang Yan's white face was full of doubt, and said, "No matter what, the city will be broken tomorrow!" ”
They have an internal response, open the city gate, and the giant deer will be broken tomorrow!
Early the next morning, Zhao Yun went out of the city again to call for battle.
Zhang Yan, Bai Huan, Yu Poison, and Su Gu looked indifferent and watched coldly.
And behind them, the army is gearing up, waiting to eat and drink, and today is about to break the city!
Zhao Yun shouted for a while, looked up at the rising sun, turned around, and said, "Go back to the city!" ”
Five thousand men returned to the city, the four gates were under martial law, and the city gates and visible streets were full of soldiers ready to attack.
Zhao Yun returned to the city tower, and without waiting to speak, outside the north gate, the Black Mountain Army appeared all over the mountains, and the siege ladders were dense, obviously determined to break the city today.
Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao and the others looked pale, and couldn't help but clench the knives and guns in their hands.
Ying Shao was calm, put his hands behind his back, looked at the black rebels, and said with a smile: "These rebels, except for looting, know nothing else, and they are destined to have no big deal." ”
Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao waited for him to be so calm, and his nervous mood eased slightly.
Think about it, the slogan of the Yellow Turban Army shouted loudly, 'The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand', the momentum is huge, but from beginning to end, it has never been able to gain a foothold, only know the looting, once the court recruits peace, gladly accept it, and almost nothing is done.
"Kill!"
The siege of the Montenegrin army came as scheduled, shouting and killing clashing, shaking the sky, obviously more ferocious than before.
Ying Shao and the others did not move, they had already been prepared.
At the head of the north gate, the siege and defense methods of both sides came out together, swords and arrows, and all kinds of sounds were extremely harsh.
Ying Shao's expression did not move, his eyes opened slightly, and said, "Xiahou Sima, you go." ”
"Command!" Xiahoudun raised his hand and turned to go downstairs in response.
Zhang Liao looked back and continued to defend the city.
The Montenegrin army is determined to break the city today, and it mobilized 100,000 people to attack the city in one go, and the intensity is unprecedented.
Xiahoudun led the men and horses, directly surrounded the mansion of Sun Yan and others, and kicked in the door without hesitation.
"Kill! Not a single one to stay! ”
Xiahoudun held a long knife and went on a rampage.
Sun Yan and the others were discussing how to open the city gate, and when they heard the movement outside the gate, they were all startled and hurriedly ran out.
Seeing Xiahoudun, Sun Yan's face changed in shock, and then his face was gloomy, and he said, "Xiahoudun! What are you doing? ”
Xiahoudun sneered and said, "Borrow you and wait for the head to use!" Kill! ”
The soldiers drew their knives, did not hesitate, killed people when they saw them, and rushed towards Sun Yan and more than a dozen others.
Sun Yan and the others didn't know that they were exposed, and while ordering the servants to resist, they shouted: "Xiahoudun, we, we have people in the court, and we have to be presumptuous!" ”
"Yes, yes, my ancestor is Liucao Shilang, you can't kill me!?"
"My uncle is too often, and he has won the trust of Cai Gong, you, don't mess around!"
Xiahoudun turned a deaf ear to the words of these people, and killed them with a knife.
There were nearly 300 servants in Sun Yan's mansion, and the officials and soldiers killed them for a while before they were pacified.
Xiahoudun carried Sun Yan's head and strode to the city.
Ying Shao saw it and shouted, "Hang their heads to the highest place!" ”
"Yes!" Xiahou responded and turned around and ordered someone to hang.
Not long after, in the deafening shouting of killing, more than a dozen heads such as Sun Yan were hung on the flagpole.
Ying Shao looked at the heads and ordered, "Three more thousand." ”
Sun Yan and others leaked, and the Montenegrin Army would definitely be even crazier.
When the official army increased its strength like this, Zhang Yan and others also got the news, and when they saw that Neiying was gone, they were immediately furious.
Zhang Yan paced back and forth, his face was gloomy and he was about to drip ink, and said loudly: "You, you, and you, take it down for me today!" If you can't attack it, everyone will have nothing to eat! ”
Yu Poison, Bai Huan and others also looked unkind, and their hearts were full of anger, so they immediately walked out and personally supervised the battle.
The battle of the four gates is even more fierce.
Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Xiahoudun and others on Julu City had already gone into battle in person, taking the lead and trying their best to resist.
Seventy or eighty thousand people attacked the city, and they had never seen this kind of grand occasion, as if facing a great enemy, they went all out to defend the city.
The war lasted from morning to noon, and it passed without stopping, and then it was more than an hour, as if it were a day!
The Montenegrin army did not care about the cost, and had no intention of stopping at all.
Downstairs in the city, there were corpses, blood flowing, and on the city tower, corpses were carried down, and the wounded soldiers kept withdrawing.
Zhao Yun's chest was bleeding, his helmet was missing, and he came to Ying Shao with a cloak and said loudly: "Envoy, send someone to the city again, I can't stand it!" ”
"Well, hold on for another half hour." Ying Shao's expression did not move, standing in the Sword Pavilion, and he had no intention of sending people to the city immediately.
Zhao Yun looked at the soldiers who had been waiting for a day under the city tower, and saw the decrease in the sights of the soldiers on the city tower, he was extremely worried, and said: "Envoy, I really can't hold on, I heard that the south gate is even more critical!" ”
"Wait for my orders." Ying Shao's face was expressionless and said lightly.
Zhao Yun saw that he refused to give an order, and there was no way, so he turned his head and went to defend the city again.
The nearly one-day battle to defend the city was too great a loss for Julu City, and the soldiers on the city tower were nearly half less than in the morning!
Zhang Liao at the south gate was the most dangerous, the city gate was almost washed open, and more than half of the city was lost.
"General Zhonglang, increase the troops, if you don't increase the troops, you won't be able to do it!" A chief came to Zhang Liao's side and said urgently.
The sound of the rebels banging on the door was like a drum, beating on their hearts.
Zhang Liao's face was covered with blood, cold and hard as iron, and said: "Without the order of the envoy, I can't order them." ”
"Then I'll go see the envoy!" Shi Changdao.
Zhang Liao pulled him over and said, "Defend the city!" It's not your turn to care about other things! ”
"General Zhonglang, hey......" Shi Chang had no choice but to continue to defend the city.
The officials and soldiers are not happy, and the white winding under the city is also gritting his teeth in Yu Poison.
It seems like it's almost there, but it's just hard to break.
The number of people who died was several times that of the officers and soldiers in the city!
The Black Mountain Army can be said to be a rabble, although Bai Huan, Yu Poison and others are led by Zhang Yan, they have their own tribes and territories, and the people who are lost by Yu Poison and Bai Huan are their own.
Every young man is a 'luxury', they still have parents, wives and children behind them, and the loss of one will not only reduce the number of troops, but also increase the burden.
Seeing that more and more of them were dying, Yu Poison couldn't bear it anymore, turned around and found Zhang Yan, and said, "General, please send reinforcements!" ”
Zhang Yan stared at the direction of the West Gate and said, "In another moment and a half, it will be able to break through!" ”
Yu Yan gritted his teeth and said, "If you continue, my people will die!" ”
Zhang Yan was tall, looked down at him, and said, "As long as the city is breached, men and women, as many as you want!" ”
Seeing that Zhang Yan was unwilling to send troops, Yu Poison said coldly: "General, our people are all gone, and there is no shortage of your people, you don't want to take the opportunity to annex us, right?" ”
Zhang Yan's face sank, and he said: "My army is left to enter the city for a decisive battle, after so many years, when have I ever annexed others?" ”
Bai Huan hooked up at this time, and said gloomily: "General, you don't have it, but there are many people who defect to you." More than half of my men and horses have been lost, and if you don't send troops, I'll withdraw than die in vain. ”
Su Gu and the others also rushed over, staring at Zhang Yan with an unkind expression. Most of them have lost more than 10,000 yuan, and as few as thousands, for them, they are all broken and cannot continue fighting.
Seeing this crowd coming around, Zhang Yan's eyes flashed with anger, and he immediately said with a smile: "Since you want to give me the credit for breaking the city, then I am not welcome." ”
He didn't care about the eyes of others, he directly pulled out his knife and shouted: "Siege!" ”
Zhang Yan had prepared a long time ago, and the 20,000 troops who were ready to go straight to the west gate swarmed straight to the west gate.
Bai Huan, Yu Poison and others saw that Zhang Yan finally sent troops, so they relieved themselves and turned around again to attack the city.
Seeing that the main force of the Montenegrin Army was concentrated at the West Gate, Ying Shao, Zhao Yun, Xiahoudun and others also rushed over.
Zhao Yun looked up at the sky and said, "Envoy, the hour is almost there, right?" ”
Ying Shao's face sank like water, and said, "It will take another half an hour!" Zhang Zhonglang will stay, Zhao Yun, Xiahoudun, order the two of you to rate 10,000 each, and wait for my order at any time! ”
"Yes!" The two raised their hands and couldn't wait to go downstairs and order their troops.
And on the city gates, soldiers are constantly pouring in.
Ying Shao didn't leave any more hands, and all those who could be sent went to the city.
Towards evening, an unprecedented fierce battle broke out on the west gate.
The two sides seemed to regard this time as a decisive battle, and they came out with all their might, and the battle was unprecedentedly cruel.
Below, Zhang Yan personally supervised the battle, and the Montenegrin army was not afraid of death, and followed one after another.
"Kill!"
Accompanied by the rumbling drums, up and down the giant deer city, the sound of killing was like thunder, running through the sky.
This battle, fought from the morning to the present, the sky is dark, and there are countless casualties.
While guarding the city, Ying Shao looked up at the sky from time to time, estimating the time.
"Almost......" Ying Shao muttered to himself.
Zhang Liao was already exhausted, and when he heard this, his expression perked up, and he raised his hand and said, "Envoy, the last general will ask for his life!" ”
Ying Shao glanced at him and said, "This is a big gamble, the victory or defeat is unknown, and you will die if you go out." ”
Zhang Liao's face did not change, and said: "The last general is not afraid of death!" ”
Ying Shao nodded, turned his head silently, and looked at the Black Mountain Army, which was still attacking fiercely under the city.
Zhang Yan and the others saw that the head of Julu City was gradually weakened, and they were overjoyed, and they continued to supervise, and they were about to break the city.
After another full hour of attacking, the crumbling Julu City just didn't break through!
On the contrary, it is getting dark!
Bai Huan, Yu Poison and others were in a hurry, and they urged even more desperately, and even took action to personally cut down the soldiers who fled back, and supervised the battle desperately.
This day has been fought for so long, so many people have died, if they don't take it down, how can they swallow this breath!
In particular, they all know that if they can't attack today, they won't have a chance!
"Kill!"
Suddenly, shouting erupted from the northeast, and another troop of soldiers and horses suddenly appeared.
Zhang Yan and the others were shocked, turned their heads to look, and said urgently: "Where did the soldiers and horses come from?" Check it out! ”
Bai Huan, Yu Poison and others were even more shocked, fearing that the official reinforcements had arrived.
"It's the 'yellow' flag, it's Huang Zhong from Bingzhou who has arrived!" Another soldier hurried over.
"Impossible!" Bai Huan immediately broke off and said, "If Huang Zhong wants to come from Changshan Country, it will take at least five days!" ”
The soldier said: "The villain really sees it, it's a yellow flag." ”
Zhang Yan had a gloomy face and said, "How many people?" ”
The soldier said: "There are mountains and fields, and the trees are moving, and there are at least 10,000 people." ”
Bai Huan, Yu Poison and the others looked flustered, when the reinforcements arrived, they were in trouble!
"Kill!"
Suddenly, the north gate opened, and Zhao Yun and Xiahoudun led the army to rush out.
Zhang Yan and the others took a few steps forward in unison, frightened, and their faces were full of fear.
Hit the trick!
These are the three words that pop into everyone's mind.
Yu Poison looked at Bai Huan, forcibly suppressed his uneasiness, and said angrily with his eyes: "What now?" ”
At this time, he didn't believe Zhang Yan, but only believed in Bai Huan, Zheng Gu and others, who were in a similar situation to him.
Not far from the West Gate, Zhao Yun, Xiahou Dun was as imposing as a dragon, rushing out of the city and killing a bloody road, which was simply unstoppable.
Zhang Yan hated a lot in her heart, but she had no choice but to say: "Run!" If I don't run away, I'm going to be surrounded by the officers and soldiers! ”
Bai Huan was still suspicious in his heart, but seeing that the others had echoed him, he had already ordered the withdrawal of troops and was ready to run away.
Bai Huan's face was full of entanglement, struggling again and again, but he still said: "Go!" ”
The originally menacing Black Mountain Army suddenly retreated like a tide, and fled in all directions, without any order.
Zhao Yun, Xiahoudun was overjoyed when he saw this, and naturally drove the troops to chase and kill, and defeated the scattered Montenegrin army.
Zhang Yan, the 'flying general' of the Black Mountain Army, who was fierce and prestigious, lost his prestige greatly, and many of the commanders who originally followed him now went their separate ways and did not continue to follow him.
Many Montenegrin armies had nowhere else to go, and they went around and around, and finally ran to the north, the junction of Jizhou, Youzhou, and Bingzhou.
