Nanyang County-Wan County

Huang Zu stood in the city, looking at the vast wilderness in the south, and there was no wave in his heart.

"General, do you really want to go south? If we attack Xinye, it will mean a complete fall out with Liu Biao, and we will not be able to maneuver. Huang Zu's deputy general, Su Fei, asked.

"Hey, I understand what you mean, but now that the eldest prince Liu Qi is dead, the Cai family and Liu Cong will definitely kill us, even if we want to defect, but what's the point? Is there any other option for not rebelling? ”

"But that Liu Xuande... Not to mention whether we can succeed, even if we succeed in obtaining Jingzhou, what benefits can we have? Su Fei asked puzzled.

"Liu Xuande? Hmph, I already knew that he didn't have a good heart, and now there are only you and me here, so I'll tell you why I chose Xinye and Wancheng at the northern end of Nanyang County? ”

"Could it be... The general has other plans? ”

Huang Zu showed a weird smile and slowly spoke: "Don't hide it, Cao Sikong once ordered someone to secretly look for me and give a promise!" ”

Hearing this, Su Fei's face was overjoyed.

"Is the general saying that we can be under Lord Cao's command?"

"Yes, I'm not stupid, how could I easily listen to Liu Bei's nonsense? They are also in a hurry to jump over the wall, so they will choose to attack Jingzhou at this moment, Liu Biao has been in Jingzhou for many years, plus King Hongnong secretly helped, how could they be defeated so easily? And I'm just here to push the boat! From beginning to end, my goal is only Nanyang County, as for Xiangyang, let them fight for it. ”

"Wonderful, wonderful! General, then when are we going to send troops? ”

"Rumor Zhang Shuo, Deng Long, and Chen will come to see me! Su Fei, you are stationed in Wancheng, early tomorrow morning, I will personally lead the army to capture Xinye! ”

...

Since learning that Huang Zu's army got the news of Wancheng, Xinye Taishou Wang Wei was restless, unlike Wancheng, Xinye City Wall is low, and the city gate is in disrepair, it is said that Huang Zu gathered 100,000 troops, and captured Wancheng in a mighty way, and now there are only less than 20,000 people on his side, how to resist? At this time, he suddenly received a message from Xiangyang, saying that there was an army of King Hongnong to help!

This made Wang Wei quite happy! As soon as the second day dawned, he personally greeted him at the city gate! Fortunately, it didn't take long for a messenger to report, and there was an army coming from Hanshui, looking at the clothes, it was the Yizhou army! Now it has passed through the county, and it is only less than twenty miles away from here!

Hearing that Wang Wei was ecstatic, about a quarter of an hour later, the vanguard had arrived, led by a white horse and silver spear, silver helmet and silver armor, and a scar on his face, but it was difficult to hide his heroic spirit.

After seeing a group of people standing outside the gate of Xinye City, he stepped forward alone, and after seeing the person in charge, Zhao Yun clasped his fists on the horse and said: "Dare to ask Your Excellency is Xinye Taishou Wang Wei?" ”

"It's down there!"

"I am the king of Hongnong, sit down Zhao Yun, and on the order of my lord, I specially led 50,000 elite soldiers to support Xinye!"

Hearing Zhao Yun's words, a big stone in Wang Wei's heart finally landed!

The two sides were polite, and Wang Wei hurriedly stepped into the topic!

"It's not a secret, the situation is urgent now, Huang Zuqin led the army to crush all the way, and now most of Nanyang County has been captured, and according to the latest news, Huang Zu's army is likely to have moved south from Wancheng, and it should be able to reach my Xinye at noon today!"

Hearing this, his frowning face remained unchanged, and he asked, "How many troops does the other party have?" ”

"Huang Zu's 100,000 army, this way did not encounter too much resistance, and Wancheng Taishou Liu Hu was originally promoted by Huang Zu, in addition to the army pressure this time, only besieged for half a day before surrendering, and now it can be said that Huang Zu not only did not suffer much loss, but got 50,000 soldiers and horses in Wancheng in vain. If the whole family rises, there should be nearly 150,000! And General Zhao also saw that although our Xinye is also called a city, it has long been dilapidated after years of war, and there are only less than 20,000 people in my city, how can we resist the 150,000 army? How can this be? After speaking, Wang Wei's originally calm heart became nervous again.

"Don't panic, Lord Wang, we don't have a chance to win..."

As he spoke, Zhao Yun looked at the low city wall in front of him and was silent!

"Lord Zhao... Please show the way! ”

"Can Lord Wang trust Zhao?" Zhao Yun asked solemnly.

"When is it? Lord Zhao, but it doesn't hurt to say! If Lord Zhao still doesn't believe me, I can hand over the talisman directly to you! ”

As he spoke, he lowered his head and wanted to take off the talisman on his waist.

Seeing this, Zhao Yun hurriedly stopped, but his expression eased a lot!

"Lord Wang doesn't have to be like this, the reason why I say that we are not hopeless, naturally there is my basis!

First of all, there is not much difference between the two of us!

Although it seems that there are 150,000 troops on the surface, it is not, adults should not forget, although Liu Hu, the Taishou of Wancheng, is the old general of Huang Zu, but also Liu Biao's subordinate, although the relationship is far away, but after all, the same clan and the same clan, and according to the news that Lord Wang got, Liu Hu was unable to do anything after half an hour, and surrendered, which also shows that it is not out of the original intention, once Huang Zujun suffers a blow, it will be the first to turn back!

In other words, the 50,000 people in Wancheng are a double-edged sword, Huang Zu has experienced a hundred battles, and naturally understands this truth, if I were him, I would definitely not dare to bring all these 50,000 people, either divide a part, or simply stay in the completion, that is to say, no matter what, Huang Zu will leave at least 10,000 or 20,000 people in the headquarters to garrison Wancheng, so as long as we defeat the headquarters led by Huang Zu, we can achieve victory, and even turn the tables!

This is the first way to win! ”

Zhao Yun paused and continued to speak: "In addition, my 50,000 army is still staying five miles west of Xinye, and Huang Zu should not know that there will be such an army, so how can the enemy not win?"

This is the second way to win!

As for the third..."

Zhao Yun glanced at the low Xinye City, the corners of his mouth hooked up a cold smile, and slowly spoke: "This third way to win... This is the new field! I want Huang Zu and these people to come and go! ”

…

An hour later, Huang Zu's army was marching, and at this time, Deng Long, the deputy general next to Huang Zu, came to Huang Zu's side and said softly: "General, ahead is Bowangtun, where there is a flat river, as long as you pass from here, you can reach Xinye, and there is no other obstacle." ”

Hearing this, Huang Zu waved his hand, ordered the whole army to stop, frowned and looked at the dense mountains and forests on both sides of the front, about ten miles wide, the edge of the front could not be seen at a glance, and the ground was nearly half a meter high because no one passed by all year round!

"If this is a fire attack, it will probably lead to the annihilation of our army! Zhang Shuo and Chen Qi, the two of you will take two armies to both sides to move forward with the army, don't give the Xinye Army the slightest opportunity! ”
