Chapter 344: The Xuzhou Legion is Coming!
Hearing Zhang Fei say this, he nodded, pressed his hands on his knees, slowly stood up and said, "The third brother has been a lot more stable over the years. However, I have always felt that the third brother is quite strategic, but he is covered by his rough appearance, and his temper is a little short-tempered, so that he is regarded as a reckless person. β
Zhang Fei did not respond to the words, but quickly walked down the city wall.
Seeing this, he followed.
The people on the city wall looked at Zhao and Zhang Fei blankly.
Neither of them cared about the people anymore.
Now that the soldiers of Neihuang County are dead, these people are left.
Even if the eldest prince Yuan Tan led his army to break through the city, he would not hurt them too much.
Not to mention, there are no soldiers anymore.
These people will be scattered.
Zhao and Zhang Fei, with a few dozen soldiers who were not seriously injured, rode war horses and withdrew all the way towards the north gate of the city.
And inside the Yellow City south and outside.
Pang Tong was holding a telescope and looking at the city wall.
Looking at the crowd on the city wall that began to leave quickly, a touch of pride appeared on Pang Tong's face.
Sure enough, there were no soldiers in Neihuang City.
Next, it's time to defend the city.
Neihuang County is the gateway to Yecheng.
Ye Cheng will definitely attack Inner Yellow City as fast as possible.
And there is only one task for yourself.
That is to defend the city to the greatest extent, so as to maximize the consumption of the forces of Yecheng and Yuan Tan.
At that time, Zhuge Liang will cut off the connection between Youzhou and here and take Youzhou.
Tai Shi Ci and the Lujiang Army went north again, cleaned up the battlefield, and cleaned up the two living treasure brothers Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang.
Zhao Guo is what is in the bag.
Thinking of this, Pang Tong hurriedly called Yuan Tan over and asked him to order the soldiers to stop retreating and prepare to enter the city instead.
After that, Pang Tong personally stepped forward to ask the crowd on the city wall to open the city gate.
Open the gates, and everything is safe in the city.
If you don't open the gates, you will slaughter the city.
After Pang Tong's threat, the people on the city walls hurriedly opened the city gates.
They had already seen Zhao and Zhang Fei leave.
There were no soldiers in the city, and it was impossible for them, the people, to continue to defend the city.
Pang Tong and Yuan Tan quickly occupied Neihuang City with their soldiers.
Pang Tong also called on the soldiers to reinforce the three gates in the north, east and west of the city.
At the same time, he sacrificed his ultimate.
He drew drawings of the three-bow bed crossbow and the thunderbolt!
When the military attache was in Dabi before, he also returned to Wu County.
After returning to Wu County, the first thing he did was to ask Lu Yi, the king of Wu, for a special order to enter Wu County University.
That's right, not everyone can get into Kure University.
Especially on the central floor of Wujun University, only those who have given a special order from King Wu Lu Yi can enter.
Pang Tong wants to enter Wujun University with only one purpose.
That is to learn from the craftsmen of Ma Equal, the construction of the thunderbolt and the three-bow bed crossbow.
Pang Tong didn't have any special talent in this area.
However, as a person who once came out of Jingzhou School, he is as famous as Zhuge Liang and enjoys the title of "Sleeping Dragon and Phoenix Chick".
His memory can't be compared with a prodigy like Zhou Budo, but it can't be underestimated.
He memorized the construction of the thunderbolt and the three-bow bed crossbow in his mind, and after repeated explanations by Ma Jun and other craftsmen, he also learned how to build the thunderbolt and the three-bow bed crossbow.
At this time, leaving Yuan Tan to rest, Pang Tong personally gathered craftsmen from the city, as well as the people, and began to urgently build three-bow bed crossbows and thunderbolts.
The three-bow bed crossbow was mounted on the city wall and delivered a powerful kill to the enemy forces besieging the city outside the city.
The Thunderbolt was installed in the city, at the foot of the city wall, and used the Thunderbolt to carry out a wide range of untargeted attacks on the enemy's catapults and rushing carts attacking the city.
This move, he has seen too much under the hands of the generals of Wu State.
Almost a high-ranking general of Wu State, everyone can do it.
It is said that it originated in Lusu at the earliest.
Lu Su relied on this trick to take down Lu Bu and keep Xuzhou.
Yuan Tan saw that Pang Tong did not rest, and directly invested in building defensive equipment, especially taking out Wu Guo's housekeeping skills, and he was quite moved.
It seems that King Wu is really concerned about the love of his brother-in-law.
Although, since he was born, he has not seen that so-called sister.
After all, it was not her own sister, but the daughter of her uncle Yuan Shu.
And uncle and father, have always been at odds.
When Pang Tong led the craftsmen of Neihuang to build the three-bow bed crossbow and the thunderbolt car, Zhao Zhao and Zhang Fei were already less than fifty miles away from Yecheng with dozens of people, and they met Yuan Shang personally leading tens of thousands of troops to come.
Yuan Shang personally met with the lead.
He didn't have a good impression of Zhang Fei.
However, I still trust the trick very much.
Father Yuan Shao was also quite polite to Zhao before his death.
Zhao is a disciple of the famous scholar Le Yin, a staff member of the general He Jin, and his father is a colleague.
When his father was alive, he had summoned him many times during the Three Dynasties and introduced him to him.
In my father's words, the trick is not only brave, but also brainy.
He immediately reported the battle situation of Neihuang to Yuan Shang and the mastermind Xin Ping.
Although he lost Neihuang in the move, neither Yuan Shang nor Xin Ping blamed the move.
On the contrary, after Xin Ping learned about Yuan Tan's strength from the mouth of the Zhao, he suggested that Yuan Shang divide 10,000 troops from the rear army, let the Zhao lead, and urgently rush to the aid of the Jieqiao, in case the Xuzhou army landed from the plain, and then attacked the Jieqiao, thus cutting off the connection between Youzhou and Yecheng.
Although the boundary bridge has been guarded by nearly 10,000 soldiers led by generals Zhu Ling and Lu Kuang.
This time, let the lead 10,000 troops go, which is considered to be on the safe side.
After all, if Xuzhou really landed from the plains and attacked the boundary bridge, it must be led by Zhao Yun, the governor of Xuzhou.
For Zhao Yun, the entire Zhao Kingdom has heard of it, and it is very jealous.
This person was born in Changshan County and was once a fierce general under Gongsun Zhan.
Later, because of the death of his brother, Zhao Yun said goodbye to Gongsun Zan and returned to the mountains and forests.
Later, Lu Yi, the king of Wu, led an army to attack Xuzhou, and Zhao Yun and Wu Wang's generals and Shi Huan fought against LΓΌ Bu and captured LΓΌ Bu alive.
Zhao Yun first joined the account of Lu Yi, the king of Wu, and was appointed as the commander of Xuzhou by Lu Yi, the king of Wu.
He did not live up to the expectations of Lu Yi, the king of Wu, and when the eldest prince Yuan Tan took Yan Liang, Zhou Yu and other military generals, as well as tens of thousands of troops to attack Xuzhou, he stubbornly repelled the army of the eldest prince Yuan Tan, and even killed Yan Liang and Wen Chou, two of the four court pillars in Hebei.
And this has become the pain of Zhao Wang Yuan Shao's life.
Even Zhou Yu, who was born in the second and third dukes, died in this battle.
Later, when Cao Cao retreated from the Central Plains, and Yuan Shao, the king of Zhao, raided the Central Plains, the prince of Zhao led a large army into Xudu, and the eldest prince Yuan Tan and the second prince Yuan Xi were ordered to lead an army of more than 100,000 to attack Xuzhou.
It was also resisted by Zhao Yun and the Xuzhou Army in the area of Mount Tai and the plains.
For the name Zhao Yun, now the generals of Zhao Guowen are a little frightened.
Even, the generals under Zhao Yun have a little reputation, and the people of Zhao can remember them.
Zhao Yun didn't say.
Like Zhang Xiu, after the Zhang family of the famous Wuwei family, when Dong Zhuo was in turmoil, the nephew of Zhang Ji, a famous Wuwei general, once killed Cao Cao and abandoned his armor, and even buried his eldest son and personal general.
Like Tian Yu, in the midst of the chaos, he cut off the head of Wen Chou, one of the four court pillars in Hebei!
Like Lu Su, the first time he commanded the soldiers to fight, and defeated Lu Bu's ruthless men in the first battle of the polder.
Wait a minute.
In the face of such a huge army of fierce generals, in fact, Xin Ping let lead another 10,000 troops to help, and he was still a little uneasy.
But now there are no reliable generals in Yecheng City.
There are no more soldiers.
That's all there is to it.
Fortunately, the son-in-law Yuan Shang has urgently sent people to Jixian County, the seat of Youzhou Governance, hoping that the second son, Yuan Xi, can lead the army to help.
I believe that the second son, Yuan Xi, can also understand the current situation.
If he didn't lead the army to help, when the time came, the boundary bridge would be taken by Xuzhou, and the Zhao State would have to sit back and wait for destruction.
He received Yuan Shang's order, led Zhang Fei, and led the army to the boundary bridge non-stop.
Before he reached the boundary bridge, he saw the people fleeing from the plains in the direction of Yecheng.
Sure enough, as the mastermind Xin Ping expected, the Xuzhou Army and Qingzhou Mu Zangba converged, with nearly 60,000 troops, crossing the Yellow River in a mighty way, easily taking Gaotang Port, and marching towards the plain.
The people of Pingyuan County rushed in the direction of Yecheng.
The commander immediately ordered the whole army to speed up and rush to the boundary bridge.
When they arrived at Jieqiao, Lu Kuang and Zhu Ling were already in Qinghe County, twenty miles southeast of Jieqiao.
They have already obtained the latest battle situation: the Xuzhou Legion, under the leadership of Zhuge Liang as the commander, Zhao Yun as the main general, Tian Yu, Zhang Xiu, Zhang Ren, Jiang Qin and others as the generals, the 60,000-strong army easily broke through Pingyuan County, and is coming towards the Jieqiao.
When he heard Tian Yu's name again, his expression was also a little dazed.
He and Tian Yu hadn't seen each other for several years.
When they met for the first time, he was still a teenager who liked to laugh with Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei.
Didn't think of it.
I haven't seen him for so many years, and he has become a fierce general in Xuzhou.
Zhu Ling, Lu Kuang, and Zhao Zhao discussed it.
In the end, Zhu Ling was the commander, Lu Kuang was the main general, and Zhao and Zhang Fei were the vanguard.
I waited for four days in Qinghe County.
At noon on the fifth day, everyone saw the Xuzhou army coming all over the mountains.
Rao is Zhao, Lu Kuang and Zhu Ling had already expected the arrival of the Xuzhou army this time, with nearly 60,000 people.
But at this moment, looking at this scale, the three of them still feel their scalps tingle.
On the wall of Qinghe County, Yuan Shang's defenders saw the Xuzhou army coming, and their faces turned pale one by one.
The bravery of the Xuzhou Legion has long been familiar to them.
Now, it's still so loud.
Some soldiers even trembled their legs directly.
When Lu Kuang and Zhu Ling saw this scene, they both felt bad.
At this moment, Zhang Fei said to Zhu Ling: "What are you afraid of? Open the city gates, and I will meet them and cheer them on! β
Zhu Ling was about to scold.
The enemy is so loud that he opens the city gates?
What if the enemy comes in?
Seeing this, he hurriedly said to Zhu Ling: "General, I will accompany him to the city." In this situation, we need a battle to refresh the soldiers. β
"Although the Xuzhou Army is brave, it is not invincible."
Lu Kuang also said: "General Zhu, it's true!" β
Only then did Zhu Ling say to Zhao and Zhang Fei: "Okay, then open the city gate, and you go out to fight." However, be careful not to be reckless. β
He hugged his fists, took Zhang Fei, and beckoned hundreds of people to go down the city wall.
When the Xuzhou army stopped about three miles outside the city, the gate of Qinghe County opened.
Hundreds of people rode war horses, rolled up dust from the city, and rushed out directly.
The first two are Zhang Fei and the lead!
