In the east of Luoyang City, the military flag hunts, and the soldiers are killed.

More than a dozen martial artists were tied up and staggered to the execution ground.

"The governor spares his life, don't dare anymore."

"Lu Ji, you have been defeated repeatedly, but you are angry with your own people, is this your ability?"

"You don't have to die well, I'll wait, haha."

"The king let this kind of person be the governor, and the great cause will be ruined."

"What's wrong with grabbing something? As long as we have money, Zhang Fang not only plundered the gold silk, but also the women. ”

"If the husband dies, he will die, where is there so much nonsense?"

There was a noisy sound from the execution ground, and Governor Lu Ji knelt behind the desk, his face expressionless.

Am I wrong to plunder before fighting, to harm the people, and to punish these black sheep?

The champion general Xianxiu, the Zhonghu army Shi Chao, the Beizhonglang general Wang Cui, the Baisha governor Sun Hui, and the second-level generals Wang Xian, Hao Chang, Gongshi Fan and others all looked at each other with different expressions.

Wang Zhang, who joined the army, wanted to speak and stopped, and finally sighed and said nothing.

"It's time to be executed." Lu Ji snorted coldly, and was about to give an order, but he heard the sound of rapid horses' hooves in the distance.

Lu Ji looked up suddenly, a little surprised.

He was inexperienced and could not judge the approximate number of people from the sound of horses' hooves, but an army of more than 200,000 people, stretching for dozens of miles, was distributed everywhere, how could it be possible for people to easily break into the vicinity of his handsome tent?

But if it's not the enemy, why hasn't it been reported? Riding a horse near the big tent of the Chinese army, who gave the guts? Is there any testimony?

The sound of horses' hooves got closer and closer, and in a short time they rushed dozens of paces away.

Captain Lu stood up, his face ugly.

It's his own person, but this incident makes him even more upset.

More than 100 horsemen rushed straight to ten steps away before stopping, and the leader sneered again and again, and directly ordered: "Untie the sons and daughters." ”

"No." The knights dismounted, pushed away the executioners who were about to be executed, untied the ropes from the prisoners one by one, and released them, all of whom had come to their rescue.

The vicinity of the tent was full of generals and soldiers, but they looked at it dumbfounded, motionless.

"Meng Chao!" Lu Ji was furious and said, "Who gave you the courage to rob the law field without following the military order?" Come! ”

"Hey, all of them are angry."

"Don't be angry, General Meng is also impulsive."

"At the moment of the great enemy, we should unite sincerely."

The generals and staff stepped forward one after another to dissuade him, and some people secretly gave Meng Chao, who was sitting on the horse, a look, and asked him not to make things too stiff.

Unexpectedly, Meng Chao didn't give any face, sneered twice, and after seeing that the prisoners who committed the crime were all rescued, he pointed at Lu Ji with a halberd and asked: "These are all good sons who dare to fight, but you want to kill." Raccoon dog, will he be the governor? ”

"You!" Lu Ji was furious, seeing that he was indifferent and didn't mean to help him, he was so angry that he wanted to faint.

Meng Chao laughed, then his face turned straight, and he said coldly: "Lu Ji, your incident has happened!" Secretly colluding with Sima Yi, didn't he want to overthrow the 200,000 army? ”

The crowd was shocked.

"It's over, it's over."

"Although Lu Dudu has occasional small defeats, he said that he is going to go against the grain, right?"

"I don't think so, after more than a month, I didn't take any advantage, but I lost my troops and lost my generals, and there is indeed a problem."

"You can't talk nonsense."

Everyone was gossiping and talking.

Meng Chao ignored them and left with his own people. Before leaving, he also threatened the landing plane with a halberd.

Wang Zhang, who joined the army, and Sima Sun Zheng glanced at each other, and they both found that the other party's face was ugly.

Lu Ji didn't say a word and went straight back to the big tent.

Sun Zheng was worried and followed in.

"Governor, there are still some loyal people in the army, it is better to summon them to listen to the order, and later order the soldiers and horses to hunt and kill Meng Chao." Sun Zheng suggested.

He was a native of Fuchun, Wu County, and served as Huangmenlang during the reign of Sun Hao of Eastern Wu. After the fall of Eastern Wu, he came out of the Jin Dynasty and served as the county commander of Zhuo County, and is now Sima of the Luji Shogunate.

Today, Meng Chao openly provoked the authority of the commander, and the impact was very bad, if he didn't deal with it severely, how could he order the whole army in the future? What's more, Meng Chao scolded Lu Ji as a "raccoon dog", which was a contemptuous term for the northerners to the southerners, and Sun Zheng was also very uncomfortable.

When Lu Ji heard this, his eyelids jumped, but he didn't say anything.

"Governor ......," Sun Zheng said hurriedly.

Lu Ji stretched out his hand to stop his words, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Meng Chao attacked me because of Meng Jiu's old affairs. Most of the people in the army are northerners, and they have never been convinced by me, if they kill Meng Chao, something may happen. ”

Sun Zheng was speechless.

Meng Chao's brother Meng Jiu is a eunuch who serves the king of Chengdu all the year round and is very favored. Before, Meng Jiu had begged Handan for his father's order, but no one else dared to express their opinions, and spoke out against Lu Ji. He thinks that Handan is an important place, and he must carefully select qualified people to serve as county commanders, how can he let the father of the eunuch be the one?

This is the end of the beam.

This time, Meng Chao's troops were sloppy, burning and looting everywhere, and Lu Ji sent people to strictly investigate, arresting more than a dozen soldiers who made the most trouble, and planned to punish them in order to enforce military discipline. As a result, Meng Chao led more than 100 horsemen to rush straight to the court, rescued people, and openly slapped the coach in the face, and this beam knot deepened.

"I have my own opinions." Lu Ji continued: "The order goes on, tomorrow the battalions will attack the Spring Gate, and there must be no mistake. ”

Jianchun Gate is also called the East Gate, which is located in the eastern section of the city wall of Luoyang. As soon as Sun Zheng heard it, he understood that Lu Ji wanted to establish his prestige by attacking Luoyang City, and then make the generals bow down.

He couldn't comment on whether this was right or wrong, but only reminded: "Governor, it's best to contact Zhang Fang, the east and west are attacked, and there is a chance of victory." ”

"Well, I'll save it." Lu Ji nodded and said, "This is a letter and sent to the west of the city." ”

******

In ancient times, the siege of the city either besieged the three and reduced the will of the defenders to resist; Either encircle on all sides, and then pick the key points for the main attack, and feint in other directions to distract the defenders.

When Lu Ji wanted to attack Jianchunmen, he thought of asking Zhang Fang to cooperate and launch a new round of offensive in the west of the city. Even in the north and south, a small number of troops can be sent to feint to contain them.

Zhang Fang agreed.

On the eighth day of October, Lu Ji personally led a large army outside the Jianchun Gate, and Zhang Fang also launched an offensive in the west of the city on the same day.

The two "big guys" of the enemy, one west and one east, seemed to be relieved to the Wang Division stationed in the south of the city. However, the troops sent by Lu Ji to this side to feint have to deal with it seriously - it is said to be a feint, but there are more than 20,000 soldiers and horses.

"Supervise, just tortured the captives, and learned that the thief's name is Meng Chao, and there are more than 3,000 people." Shao Xun stood at the head of the wall, pointed to the dense enemy soldiers on the street of Kaiyangmen, and said: "Judging by their meaning, they should want to clear the south of the city, and then use this as a base to attack the Yangmen and Pingchang gates." ”

"Only Meng Chao?" Mi Huang asked.

"More than that. Inspector, please look over there—" Shao Xun pointed to Guozixue and other places in the distance with his bow, and said, "There is beacon smoke everywhere, and the Meng thieves are here to fight us." ”

Mi Huang's face is not very good-looking.

This time the enemy army was attacking in earnest, not the previous plundering of Zhang Fang's troops. The presence of police everywhere means that the enemy army is outnumbered, and the future of one's own side suddenly becomes uncertain.

But he also knows that this will never show any negative emotions, which is not good for morale.

"Uncle Shao, Biyong is all up to you." Mi Huang said sincerely: "I will also hand over my entourage to you, and everyone will obey your orders." If you win this battle, you will have to show your old face in the future, and I will have to ask for credit for you. ”

"It doesn't have to be that way." Shao Xun said: "There are more than 1,000 people in Biyong, who are one and share weal and woe. If it is broken, who can live alone? ”

"Well said!" Mi Huang's expression was a little excited, and he said, "If you can use me, don't be polite." When I was young, I learned a little martial arts, and I didn't dare to say how powerful I was, but it was still okay to compare with thieves. ”

"Supervise and go down the wall to sweep the battle for me." Shao Xun said: "The thieves have already been killed. ”

"Okay." Mi Huang didn't say much, and got off the ladder in three or two clicks.

Shao Xun continued to observe.

Opposite Biyong is the Ming Hall, and if an army is stationed to support each other with the defenders of Biyong, it can cause great trouble to the enemy army.

Unfortunately, the defenders on Biyong's side are too few, and Mingtang is too big. Shao Xun thought about it, and finally gave up - the division is weak, and it is funny for people to break each one.

The sound of neat footsteps is getting closer and closer, tugging at people's heartstrings one by one.

Shao Xun stared at the enemy army, and counted silently in his heart, about 31,200 people, all of them were on foot - this is very strange, there were still cavalry in the street battle, although there were only more than 100 horses.

But it's not incomprehensible.

There are soldiers, maybe these more than 100 cavalry are Meng Chao's personal troops? How is he willing to give it to others?

The overall military appearance is quite neat, but that's it.

You can't expect much from the long-standing soldiers. Maybe after a few years of fighting in the battle array, their combat effectiveness will improve, but it is obviously not possible at present.

"I can only rely on the defense, first grind the morale of the enemy, and then try to do anything else." Shao Xun secretly calculated.

The enemy slowly increased their pace, and even their faces and the various weapons they brought with them could be seen.

Shao Xun decisively raised a soap flag.

Li Chong, who was resting in the court, jumped up and walked forward quickly with the archers who had expanded to fifty people.
