Before Zhang Fei arrived at Xiaoling, he heard that the troops suspected of guarding Jinxuan in Wuling were besieging Xiaoling, how could this kind of aggressive thing not make him curious.

The opportunity was so rare, Zhang Fei quickly stepped up, regardless of the fatigue of the soldiers and horses, took the cavalry of his headquarters to go first, and forcibly marched for thirty miles, and rushed to the city of Xiaoling at the beginning of the afternoon of the same day.

Zhang Fei had to run long distances this way, and the size of the army he brought was the smallest among the three routes, Liu Bei only gave him a total of 8,000 people, and Zhao Yun and Gan Ning were more than 10,000 people.

However, the proportion of cavalry in Zhang Fei's department was very high, there were 3,000 cavalry out of 8,000 people, and Liu Bei gave him more than half of the cavalry on the Western Front, as well as 5,000 infantry.

At this moment, in order to be in a hurry, Zhang Fei arrived first with 3,000 cavalry, and it would take at least an hour for the next 5,000 infantry. If it weren't for the long days in the late fourth lunar month, the infantry might not have been able to arrive before dark.

When he arrived near Xiaoling City, Zhang Fei personally looked at it and confirmed that the opposite side was indeed the Golden Spiral Banner, so he was not polite and rushed over with his troops.

Zhang Fei approached a hundred steps in front of the battle and shouted in person:

"Zhang Yide, under the general of the chariot cavalry, is here! Golden Spiff! As Hanchen, why did he attack each other and respond to Zhang Xian's rebellion! Quickly retreat, and you will not die! ”

Zhang Fei's roar was not a casual shout. He was also afraid of attacking rashly, in case there was any misunderstanding, so he came to the front line to scold the battle.

If the enemy is really Jin Xuan's subordinates and stubbornly resists, he will not give the other party time to slowly adjust the formation, and it is better to rush directly if he does not agree with each other.

If there is any misunderstanding, the other party should immediately explain and put on a harmless posture that does not dare to resist.

The army adjusted its formation, and it took half a stick of incense to work, and it couldn't be faster. A few words of time, you can't get things wrong. And if the other party does not dare to respond in the face of humiliation, it will also hit morale, which is also in Zhang Fei's arms.

The enemy on the opposite side was very surprised when he saw Zhang Fei appear, and hurriedly adjusted the formation to try to meet the attack, while some generals hurriedly boosted their morale and yelled at their own people:

"Liu Bei and Liu Biao are the thieves who betrayed the imperial court! Jin Fujun and Zhang Yuanjun are edicts to quell the rebellion! Don't panic! The righteousness is in our army! ”

These words were not even said to Zhang Fei, but were just used to stabilize the morale of the army, Zhang Fei vaguely skimmed one ear, so he was not polite to the other party, and directly made a move with a snake spear, signaling the cavalry under his command to rush and kill with him.

The other party was originally a besieging force, and they set up a position outside the city, and there was no way to avoid it, so they could only face it head-on.

Although its number was about a few thousand larger, more than twice that of the cavalry troops under Zhang Fei's command, they were not in a hurry and were in a sloppy state.

Moreover, the city is close to the mouth of the Youjiang River, and the enemy's siege troops are not all stationed on the south bank of the oil river in order to besiege the city, and a small number of troops are deployed on the opposite bank of the north of the city.

Field battles suddenly broke out on the south bank, and the troops on the north bank could not even rush into battle.

Zhang Fei straightened his spear and took a county lieutenant wearing fish scales and armor on the opposite side, and picked off seven or eight county soldiers along the way. The cavalry behind him also frantically covered up, and soon beat the Wuling soldiers to loosen their positions and tear the battle line apart.

The lieutenant didn't have the courage to fight Zhang Fei at all, but he saw from a distance that the soldiers in front of him were torn apart by Zhang Fei like chopping melons and vegetables, and he immediately turned his horse and fled.

"What's going on? Why is Liu Beijun's armor so good? How come these cavalrymen who charge in the front row have steel armor? ”

The Wuling soldiers on the opposite side put up a little resistance, and they were soon beaten into doubts.

It turned out that Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu had been mining in Daye Iron Mine in Exian County, Jiangxia County for more than half a year, and Zhuge Liang also transplanted the steelmaking workshop piloted by his eldest brother in Wuhu last year to Daye Iron Mine.

Now Exian County has become the first echelon of steel production in Dahan, and if it is built for a few years, it will definitely be able to completely surpass other old steel production bases. The steel armor production in Exian County is also increasing every month, and this time Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun went out, and the armor rate of the elite vanguard cavalry rose to a new level.

As soon as the Wuling soldiers fought, they found that their own swords and stabbing attacks were almost completely ineffective, and the bow and arrow were the same as tickling, unless they shot the war horse and threw the cavalry down, it was possible to cause damage to the enemy.

If you want to hurt the elite vanguard cavalry under Zhang Fei's command, there is no other way to rely on the spears of high-quality steel spearheads to pierce with all your strength, and the powerful crossbows of steel arrow clusters to shoot directly, or to cut the legs of horses with knives and axes.

All other attacks are the same as gua sha.

With such a one-sided crushing, the captain of the Wuling County soldiers was chased by Zhang Fei and penetrated more than a dozen layers of front, and in the end he was inevitably caught up, and he stabbed a spear directly into the vest and died.

The other Wuling soldiers even collapsed directly, scattered, and surrendered obediently on their knees when they were caught up.

Many soldiers were also driven to the waterside of the oil river, because there were still Wuling soldiers stationed on the north bank, so they directly threw off their armor and jumped into the river to escape.

When Zhang Feiyuan first arrived, he didn't have time to cross the river to control the north bank, so he could only watch this part of the deserters collapse, but it didn't hurt.

These troops have not fought any hard battles since they joined the army, and there has been no war in Wuling County since Sun Jianping District Star twelve years ago. Although the people of Wuling are fierce, the discipline of the troops is too poor, and they are not accustomed to hard and vicious battles. You can only rob and rob and fight a good fight.

Zhang Fei captured more than 2,000 surrendered soldiers, and after a little screening, he singled out one of the military horses and three Qu military marquis, and tortured them about the reason for the battle:

"Why did you Wuling soldiers come to attack Xiaoling County? Isn't Xiaoling a county under the jurisdiction of Wuling County? ”

The captured officer did not dare to resist at all, and groveled and confessed: "The general spares his life!" We are also sent by command! Jin Xuan listened to Zhang Xian's call, saying that Liu Biao betrayed the imperial court, and the imperial court named Zhang Xian as the pastor of Jingzhou, and asked our Wuling soldiers to cooperate with Zhang Xian, cross the Yangtze River through Xiaoling to the north, and attack Jiangling in Nanjun.

However, although Xiaoling belongs to Wuling, Liu Biao has always been wary of Zhang Xian and Jin Xuan, and has cultivated cronies in the county order arrangements of various counties along the Yangtze River. Jin Xuan and Liu Biao hadn't torn their faces back then, so they could only take a step back.

The name of this Xiaoling County Commander is Li Yan, and the Yidao County Commander Dong He next door is the result of a compromise between Liu Biao and Jin Xuan. Jin Xuan thought that he had been favored by Li Yan, Dong and Duojia in the past two years, and had enveloped them, but he didn't expect that when they were about to fight, they actually crossed the Taishou and directly served the state pastor, resisting and blocking King Qin's army from going north......

When Jin Fujun heard the change, he was shocked and angry, so he quickly asked Chen Duwei to change his goal, first break the tomb, remove his worries, and then cross the river to cooperate with Zhang Xian to attack Jiangling. We had only been attacking the city for two days before we were met by the general's army. ”

When Zhang Fei heard this, he directly kicked the other party: "Huh? Do you still dare to call yourself the 'Qinwang Army'? ”

The military Sima knew that he had said the wrong thing, and he didn't dare to resist when he was kicked, so he hurriedly turned over and kowtowed like pounding garlic: "I haven't changed it for a while!" The general spares his life! We are the rebels! It's the rebels! ”

Zhang Fei didn't bother to toss the other party anymore, anyway, the news he wanted to inquire about had already been heard, so he asked people to tie up a few prisoners, and then sent someone to call the door under the city and let the Xiaoling defenders let him into the city.

The defenders of Xiaoling also saw a scuffle outside the city, but when the battle began, it was already in the afternoon, and it was the end of the battle, and the sky was completely dark.

The garrison did not dare to confirm that there was a friend or an enemy, so they closed the city gate, and the county commander got the news, and personally went to the city tower to persuade them to stay outside the city for a night, and they could use hanging baskets to transport some wine and meat to the army, and then discuss it in the long run at dawn tomorrow.

"This guy doesn't know anything! He was attacked by Jin Xuan, we saved him, and he didn't open the city gate to let us in, could it be that this guy was determined to wait for Liu Biao's army to take over? Zhang Fei was also angry when he heard this, and he almost wanted the rear infantry who had just arrived to prepare to attack the city.

Zhang Fei is very aware of the task assigned by the eldest brother this time, not only to defeat Jinxuan's Wuling, but also to prevent Liu Biao from crossing the river. If there is a county order of die-hard Liu Biao in Xiaoling and other places, how can this work?

It is better to take advantage of the current "misunderstanding" to forcibly take down the other party, and it is already an established fact that Liu Biao wants to rip off at that time. It's better than turning the other cheek after the two sides have already negotiated.

Fortunately, at the same time that Zhang Fei's rear infantry arrived, his staff officer Xu Shu also arrived.

He had a general understanding of the situation, and hurriedly persuaded Zhang Fei: "General Zhang must not be reckless!" I also heard a little about the name of Li Yan when I was studying in Jingzhou, and I heard that he was only a county official in Nanjun, but he was diligent and careful in his work, and he was well organized, so he was reused by Liu Biao and placed in various counties along the Yangtze River in the south of the Yangtze River.

This Li Yan, as well as Dong He from Yidao County next to him, are not people with deep roots. Li Yan was born relatively poor, and Dong He was an outsider from his ancestral hometown of Ba County, and these people were already dissatisfied with the control of the school lords by the Jingzhou Kuai and Cai clans.

After the lord ordered Kong Ming to engrave and print books and sell them to various counties in Jingzhou last year, Liu Biao was bewitched by Cai Mao and blocked the rivers and businesses, which inevitably led to the departure of scholars from the poor family and outsiders. I am willing to enter the city and say that I will be influenced by the virtue of the lord, or I may be able to let this Li Yan abandon the secret and surrender to the lord! ”

Xu Shu himself followed Sima Hui to vote in the autumn and winter of last year. He himself has the deepest experience of Zhuge Liang's influence on the "moral politics" of selling books cheaply in Jingzhou after engraving and printing.

Liu Bei's charm and inspiration for the scholars of Jingzhou is already extremely strong, and now with the blessing of Zhuge Liang selling books cheaply to benefit the people, although it has only been half a year, the mentality of many literati in Jingzhou has been pulled over.

Xu Shu firmly believed that he could persuade Li Yan with his tongue.

When Zhang Fei heard this, he temporarily stopped the idea of attacking, but he was also a little worried: "Mr. will enter the city to persuade him to surrender, there will be no danger, right?" And if we don't persuade us to surrender, we can still pretend not to know and misunderstand, and break the city and arrest Li Yan directly as a henchman of Jinxuan.

If you have already negotiated with it and the other party does not agree, it will be difficult to attack again. When the time comes, it will be 'knowing that the other party is not loyal to Jin Xuan, but loyal to Liu Biao', and our army still knows that Liu will attack Liu and will fall into an unrighteous name! ”

Xu Shu insisted on pausing and pleading: "Please General Zhang give me this opportunity!" I promise to convince Li Yan! If you fail, please reduce my official position as compensation! When the time comes, if the general wants to pretend to be reckless and attack Donghe, I will never stop it! ”

Zhang Fei touched his beard: "Okay, for the sake of Kong Mingdu, who thinks you have some ability, I will give you this opportunity!" Only once! ”
