Chapter 199: Two Tigers Fight
As Liu Yong expected, it didn't take long for the news that he was going to personally lead people to Wuchuan to rob grain reached the ears of the captain.
The lieutenant smiled coldly.
"Grain and grass are heavy, generals can't play with children's play, although there are generals such as Gao Peie to guard, it is better to send some more men and horses." A general surnamed Li said.
The lieutenant glanced at him.
"Did General Li really think that the Empress of Shu Han would go to Wuchuan to rob grain?"
"Since ancient times, soldiers have not tired of deceit, and the general of the Che Lieutenant should not be careless." The general surnamed Li said.
"This is the bluff of the Lord after him, and I expect that his people will definitely come to attack my Shangyong City in the near future, not Kirikawa. Would the General dare to make a bet with the General? ”
The general, surnamed Li, thought for a moment.
"Shangyong City is dangerous, if Shen Yu is not bewitched by Sima Ban Confucian's house, we will not easily take it, now, even if there are not many defenders in the city, it is extremely difficult to capture it, it is impossible for the queen of Shu Han not to know this, so the last general feels that he will not do this."
The lieutenant was unimpressed.
"Hugh is long-winded, you go to the city and send some more men and horses, and let people carefully observe the movements of the enemy troops outside the city, so that they must not have any chance."
The general surnamed Li wanted to say something, but when he saw that the lieutenant had stopped paying attention, he had to agree to go out.
Everything was ready, and the captain only waited for Liu Yong to bring someone over.
The Shu army lasted for more than ten days, and there was no movement for a long time.
However, things suddenly changed when the lieutenant was anxious.
An urgent letter from the city was delivered to the captain.
Rongcheng is also one of the three counties under the jurisdiction of Shangyong, but the name at that time was very vague, and it is difficult to imagine how big it was.
The messenger was covered in dust, and the sweat on his face had smeared his entire face to look like a cat.
"The city has been besieged by the Shu army for several days, and is now in a period of distress when there is no food and grass and no rescuers outside, and it is rumored that the queen of Shu Han personally led people to attack the city. The guards sent people to break through several times, but they were unsuccessful, and this time, if it wasn't for the villain's makeup and escape from the secret passage, he wouldn't have seen the general Che Lieutenant. The man said anxiously, "I also hope that the general of the Che Lieutenant will send rescue troops quickly to relieve the danger of the fallen city." ”
The lieutenant was a little surprised.
Unexpectedly, Liu Yong would bypass Shangyong and Wuchuan and instead attack the fallen city.
Since he obtained the top, every guard in the three counties under his jurisdiction is the most trusted person around him, and he must not let him have an accident.
"The city is not far from the foggy river, but General Gao Peie is quickly asked to send people to the rescue, and the city is lost, but he asks." The lieutenant was anxious and commanded loudly.
"Kirikawa should not leave without permission." The general surnamed Li still felt that the intention of the Shu army was in Wuchuan, so he said, "It's better to send some people from the city to the rescue." ”
The lieutenant's brow furrowed.
"General Li rest assured, Wuchuan will never be fine. Since the queen of Shu Han personally led people to Chengcheng, General Ben will attack Wujun tonight. Sit and guard the city, waiting for the news of the victory of this general. ”
"General Che Lieutenant must not be moved." The general surnamed Li blocked.
The lieutenant paid no heed.
The messenger was taken to a tent to rest.
However, it didn't take long for him to leave with a flying horse, bypassing the many Cao Wei camp tents and returning to the Shu army camp tent in front of Wujun City.
"The captain of the car hurriedly dispatched the men and horses of Wuchuan to reinforce the city, and the herald has already left Shangyong, and it is estimated that he will arrive in Wuchuan soon." The man was in the big tent and said to Dong Qi.
"Your Majesty." Dong Qi clapped his hands happily, and looked at the messenger again, "You should stop your hard work, immediately rush to the city, and inform General Ma Chun that everything will be done according to His Majesty's prior arrangement." After tonight, General Ben will personally bring men to reinforce him. ”
"Yes." The messenger wiped the sweat from his face and ran out quickly.
The men and horses led by Dong Qi were stationed outside the city of Wujun at this time, less than five miles away from the city gate.
The Shu army camp at night was unusually calm.
The captain came with someone.
In the middle of the night, the sudden sound of war drums was like rolling thunder falling from the sky, tearing the silence of the Shu army's camp tent, Cao Wei's men and horses were like dense ant colonies in the wasteland, and it took almost no effort and time to occupy the entire Shu army's camp, and then advanced to the gate of Wujun at a very fast speed.
Then, just as these people were about to attack the city wall and the city gate, countless torches suddenly appeared in all directions, and the soldiers of the Shu army who had been ambushed around in advance held torches high, and rushed towards the enemy with crossbows and bows and arrows.
At the same time, the men and horses under Liu Yong's personal command had also come to Shangyong City and began to attack it fiercely.
Knowing that he had been deceived, the captain immediately commanded his men and horses to retreat, and a long knife split a road paved with blood and life, and first rushed behind Liu Yong's men and horses.
Liu Yong returned to the army and tried to block the captain.
Dong Qi also led the men and horses to chase after him.
The two sides launched an extremely large-scale battle in front of Shangyong City.
"Wait for me to capture this guy alive." Qi Zhen, who had been following Liu Yong's side, saw that the captain was so brave, and he was not convinced, so he told a few guards and urged the horse to come to the captain.
The brass hammer spun in the air and slammed into the captain's head.
The captain raised his long knife and struggled to meet it when the hammer was about to fall, and the chain of the hammer made contact with the blade, and suddenly made a turn and wrapped around the top of the long knife.
Qi Zhen roared and pulled the chain back hard.
The captain's blade cracked with an instant, almost snapping.
The lieutenant was furious, moved the hilt of the knife hard, and fought with Qi Zhen on horseback.
The two horses kept spinning in circles, and several soldiers who tried to get close to the sneak attack were kicked and injured by the enraged horses.
There was a crisp sound, and the long iron chain was actually pulled off by the two.
Qi Zhen shook on the horse's back, looked down at the iron chain that was less than half a meter long, and his face became extremely ugly.
The lieutenant almost fell off his horse, but a sneer was piled up on his face.
"The general's divine power, you can't do without weapons, this general will return you." As he spoke, the long knife spun a few times in mid-air and shook it hard.
The copper hammer smashed into Qi Zhen's chest with a hurricane.
Qi Zhen didn't dare to pick it up with his bare hands, so he hurriedly dodged.
The captain pounced on Liu Yong.
Liu Yong waved the halberd in his hand to meet him, but was blocked by the guards.
In this battle, it seems that the Che Lieutenant is in a passive situation, however, with his bravery and calmness, the Che Lieutenant's men and horses are not more than those brought by Liu Yong, not to mention that the general surnamed Li in the city opened the city gate in time and led people to kill them.
When it was about to dawn, Liu Yong withdrew his troops.
"The captain is brave, Your Majesty should return to the city quickly." Dong Qi wiped the sweat and blood on his face and said to Liu Yong.
"This guy really has some strength." Qi Zhen looked down at the copper hammer he had just picked up, and couldn't help but admire.
Liu Yong had no intention of going back.
"General Dong Qi can't delay here, and quickly lead people to Wuchuan, since Gao Peie has been ordered to send people to reinforce the city, General Ma Chun should be fighting with him. After the two of you have destroyed their food and grass, quickly withdraw your troops, and do not fall in love with the battle, lest the captain of the chariot cause people to leave the city and form a situation of encirclement. ”
"Your Majesty, rest assured, Wechen will go." Dong Qi agreed, and immediately gathered his men and left.
