After the heavy rain, only the ruins and broken walls of Liangcheng were left, and the heavy rain finally extinguished the fire that slaughtered the city. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Yuanying looked at Liang Cheng in front of him who had almost been razed to the ground, and his heart was naturally very proud, now he Yuanying, away from the capital of Liang, Jiankang, has taken another step, so how can he not like it?

"General Yuan! General Yang rushed over. ”

"Brother Yuan, now that you have won another battle, my little brother is really happy for you. Yang looked at the front with big eyes, and his heart was naturally happy for this brother.

"General Yang, it's just that we have a hard bone in front of us. The horsewhip in Yuan Ying's hand pointed at Zhongli City from afar, "That Zhongli City is close to Huaishui in the north of the city, if you want to conquer this Zhongli City, I'm afraid it will take some effort." ”

"What's so difficult about this? As long as Brother Yuan gives an order, my iron cavalry will level this bell from the city. Yang Dayan didn't take this Zhong Licheng in his eyes at all.

"Lord Xing mentioned this Zhongli City in the main hall that day, although I didn't take Lord Xing's words to heart that day, but after seeing this Huaishui today, I knew that this Zhongli would definitely not be taken down by us so easily. "Yuan Ying still attaches great importance to what Xing Luan said, then Xing Luan is naturally not a person who talks about it, since he said that Zhongli City is difficult to fight, it is really difficult to fight, but he wants to bypass this Zhongli City by himself, I am afraid that it will take too much time, and I will not be able to keep up with my follow-up supplies, but I am afraid that the morale of the soldiers will be greatly damaged. The most important characteristic of the cavalry led by his Yuan Ying is that they are fast, do not give the enemy any time to breathe, and defeat the enemy when they panic.

"Brother Yuan, doesn't he have a strange army? You can use this strange army to take down these useless people in Nanliang one by one. Yang said with big eyes full of care.

"Strange soldiers?" Yuan Ying was stunned when he heard this, he had never had any strange soldiers.

"This strange army almost took Shaoyang City, a major land for grain hoarding in Southern Liang some time ago, Brother Yuan doesn't know?" Yang Dayan was also a little surprised, he always thought that this magical Wei army was Yuan Ying's subordinate, looking at Yuan Ying's demeanor at this time, I am afraid that he did not know that there would be such a strange army.

"......" Yuan Ying was stunned, he had indeed never sent any strange soldiers to raid Shaoyang, and now this strange soldier suddenly appeared on his battlefield, but he didn't know anything about it, it was really strange.

"It seems that this strange soldier was not sent by Brother Yuan, so does Brother Yuan know where this strange soldier came from?"

Yuan Ying shook his head, he also wanted to know whose subordinates this team of soldiers who almost took Shaoyang City from, and the most important thing in his mind at the moment was how to take Zhongli.

"General Yang, you and I will put this matter aside for a while, our own people will slowly know in the future, but how to break this Zhongli still needs to be discussed carefully. Yuan Ying raised his eyes and looked at the sky, the sky full of haze, between two big clouds, a long-lost sunlight shot out from the cracks in the clouds, Yuan Ying looked at the corpses of the soldiers of the two countries all over the wilderness, and there was a trace of bitterness in his heart, many years of war, this situation has been seen countless times, I don't know why, he does not have any joy in his heart at this time, now in this earth, how many young lives will be drunk, in this soil, how many innocent bones will be buried, those who are at home looking forward to the expedition of relatives to return home, there will be countless gray hairs on their heads。

"Won't you just hit it!" Yang widened his eyes, not understanding why Yuan Ying had become so worried at this time.

"General Yang, please come with me. Yuan Ying motioned for him to follow him, and the two of them rode slowly to a few miles away from Zhongli City, where the rain had been abundant for days, and the river seemed to be about to burst out of the river when the waves were turbulent.

"If I can really fight through, I won't be so embarrassed, General Yang, have you thought about how to cross the Huaishui in front of Zhongli City?" Yuan Ying saw the Huaishui that had risen sharply due to the heavy rain for several days, and had already understood the meaning of Xing Luan's words that day, this Huaishui has often flooded over the years, and the waterway is often changed, and Zhongli City to the south of it has withstood the ravages of Huaishui again and again for hundreds of years, but it is still standing there majestically, and the silence that has been precipitated for hundreds of years is enough to make him afraid.

"This ......" Yang Dayan saw the scene in front of him, and he didn't know what to do. They northerners don't know the nature of water, but now when they see the water of such a restless river, how can they not be shocked in their hearts?

"At the moment I have no choice but to stay here for the time being, and then attack the city when I think of a good way. Yuan Ying looked at Zhongli City in front of him, and really understood Xing Luan's concerns, he thought about giving up his previous siege plan and attacking Zhongli from the side, but the west of Zhongli is now garrisoned by Cao Jingzong's army, and Cao Jingzong has just returned to Shaoyang after defeat, but his elite generals are all stationed in the north of Zhongli City at this time, presumably Cao Jingzong has already understood that the gains and losses of Zhongli City are too important to Yu Daliang. If you want to break through from the place where you can't eat your own Cao Jingzong's garrison, it will never be possible to do it in a short period of time. To the east were crisscrossed by lakes and rivers, and it was impossible to make a detour, so he could only slow down the momentum of the attack for a while, and then attack Zhongli when he had a good way.

Cao Jingzong, who returned to Shaoyang City, didn't care about saying a few words to Zhao Cao in front of him, and after coming to the camp, he began to write hard, and truthfully reported the recent battle situation to the emperor.

At the same time as handing over the battle report to the post soldiers, he also handed over a letter to his friend Wei Rui at the same time, instructing him to quietly send it to Wei Rui's hands, at this time how much he wanted to fight side by side with his old comrade-in-arms to drive the rampant Yuanying army away from the land of Daliang, but at present, he was suffering from his own lack of a better plan, that Zhongli City was in danger, how to resolve the current crisis, was what he wanted to do the most. After this battle, he can only wait patiently for the emperor's news in this Shaoyang City, whether good or bad, as long as he still has a breath, he will fight to the end.

After the post soldiers left, Cao Jingzong came to Zhao Cao and made a big salute, which scared Zhao Cao, this auxiliary general, but the shelf is very big, and he has never seen him do such a big gift to others, Zhao Cao thought to himself that he was just a small grain supervisor, how could he withstand such a big gift. He hurriedly knelt down and returned the salute: "General Cao, you are going to kill the little one, how can you give me this big gift?"

"I, Cao Jingzong, am a great gift for the people of Daliang, if Lord Zhao does not defend Shaoyang, my Cao Jingzong will be a lost dog, homeless, and that Zhongli has an army of 200,000, if there is no supply of food and grass, it will become an empty city for more than a month, Lord Zhao, do you think you should receive this great gift?" Cao Jingzong choked in his throat, if the Northern Wei soldiers succeeded in the surprise attack, he Cao Jingzong could only apologize with death.

"General Cao...... This, this Zhao Cao really deserves it, this ......" Zhao Cao almost told Fan Jun about leading his troops to retreat from the enemy, but thinking of Fan Jun's advice, he had to swallow his words back.

"Lord Zhao, now I can't say anything more to you, you quickly send someone to escort grain and grass to Zhongli City, the army in Zhongli City can't go without food for a day. "Cao Jingzong is now even more worried about the left-behind army in Zhongli City, if they make any more mistakes, they will be defeated.

"General Cao, rest assured, I, Zhao Cao, will personally carry the grain to Zhongli. "How Zhao Cao doesn't know the degree of danger at this time, it's just that his official position is humble, and it is impossible to do more if he wants to, so he can only do his duty to do things well.

Fan Jun just wiped the sweat from his forehead, took out a sheepskin water bag and drank water, Zhao Duyun's big voice began to shout, he hurriedly ran to Zhao Cao, Zhao Cao's face was solemn, as if he had a very heavy heart.

Everyone listened to the order and quickly escorted the grain and grass to Zhongli. Zhao Cao ordered.

"Lord Zhao, can I take Chabu with me?" Fan Jun asked softly

"Why did you take him there?" Zhao Cao asked with wide eyes.

"I have been learning Xianbei from him all these days, and I need to slowly learn from him about some of the situations in the Northern Wei Dynasty. Fan Jun explained, "Besides, I tied his hands and feet, but I was not afraid that he would run away." ”

"Alas...... You, your mind is thinking about things we don't understand. Zhao Cao had no choice but to agree.

"Lord Zhao, General Cao wants you to go to him again, it's about grain and grass. Cao Jingzong's personal soldiers hurriedly ran to Zhao Cao's side at this time.

Zhao Cao had to rush to Cao Jingzong's place first, after he came out of Cao Jingzong's place, he knew that the situation was extremely urgent at this time, originally ten carts of grain and grass were sent to Zhongli, but now it has become forty carts of grain and grass sent to Zhongli, how did he not know the danger and importance of this Zhongli City at this time.

The team of the grain went all the way, and only arrived at Zhongli City after five days, only to see Zhongli City under the rolling stone thunderwood, broken knives and arrows, and unburied soldier ulna, and a few months ago was stationed outside Zhongli City's big tent, which no longer existed at this moment, Fan Junden understood why Zhao Cao's face was solemn, it must be that the prince had lost the battle and withdrew to Zhongli.

Fan Jun slowly walked into Zhongli City with the team, the large and small shops in the city are still open, but the faces of those people are full of horror and uneasiness, they don't know when the siege of the Northern Wei Dynasty will besiege.

He hurriedly came to Zhao Cao and arched his hand: "Lord Duyun, the little one has something to say." ”
