- "Chang Wen can place more scouts around the city. If the other army dares to leave the city, build a deep ditch and earthen fortress. I will lead the cavalry to attack!!"
When Wei Yan heard this, his face darkened, and he followed Zhao Yun's order to make arrangements.
At the same time, in Zitong City, Meng Huo's face was so gloomy that he was about to drip black water, and he asked Huang Quan.
"Now that Zhao Zilong has arrived, I think most of Wen Bufan's troops will arrive soon. But under Zitong City, the defenses are not yet complete. If that army attacks and our reinforcements have not arrived, what should we do!? ", all text typed by hand
Huang Quan's closed eyes slowly opened, his expression condensed, he cupped his hands and opened his mouth to answer.
"Your Majesty, you can rest assured. Wen Bufan's soldiers and horses have been exhausted from repeated fierce battles in recent years. He wants to recharge his batteries so that the soldiers can rest. The march will not be fast. They will not reach the gate of Zitong City in less than half a month. However, the northwest army is powerful and there are many powerful generals. The king should not neglect the precautions."
¡°Is Mr. Huang sure about this matter!?¡±
Meng Huo's green eyes suddenly narrowed and he looked at Huang Quan closely and asked. Huang Quan did not answer, but nodded in response. Seeing Huang Quan's confident attitude, Meng Huo became more anxious. Immediately, according to Huang Quan's words, he ordered the generals to go out of the city at the third watch tonight to build deep ditches and earthen forts and other defensive matters. Read the latest chapter
Nothing happened all night until the third watch. Thousands of barbarians came out of the city and built deep ditches and earthen fortresses as ordered. Half an hour later, there was a sudden sound of cannon, and a group of men and horses suddenly rushed over. The leader, riding a snow-white horse, carried a shining silver gun. When the barbarian soldiers saw him, they all recognized Zhao Yun's identity and ran away in fright. Zhao Yun led his troops to the city and charged and killed countless barbarians. The barbarian soldiers fled in panic, screaming and rushing to the city gate, shouting to open the door. When the defenders on the city saw this, they were about to open the door, but they saw Zhao Yun leading his troops to kill him. The defenders on the city were afraid that Zhao Yun would seize the city gate, so they closed the gate. Seeing that they had no way to escape, and frightened by Zhao Yun's power, the barbarian soldiers outside the city shouted to surrender. Zhao Yun's sword was cold-eyed, so he ordered his soldiers to stop the charge, captured all the barbarians outside the city, and escorted them back to the camp.
Seeing Zhao Yun retreat, the general on the city guard quickly reported to Meng Huo. When Meng Huo heard that Zhao Yun was attacking and taking away many soldiers, he became furious.
When daybreak came, Meng Huo hurriedly ordered Huang Quan to come over for discussion. Huang Quan heard what happened before, shook his head, sighed, and said in a condensed voice.
"Zhao Zilong only leads more than a thousand men, but there are more than ten thousand troops in the city. Why is he so weak? Your Majesty, please order the garrison on the city. If you see Zhao Zilong attacking tonight, you should not stay behind closed doors. You should take the initiative to fight and kill him. That¡¯s it!¡±
Meng Huo woke up after hearing this. He knew that all his soldiers were afraid of Zhao Yun's bravery, so he ordered that anyone who flinched tonight would be killed! When all the troops received the order, they were all uneasy.
It was the third watch of the day again, and the night was dark. The barbarians went out of the city again to build deep ditches and earthen fortresses. Soon, Zhao Yun indeed led troops to kill him again, but this time the barbarian soldiers did not retreat, and temporarily retreated to the city gate drawbridge. Zhao Yun sent his troops to attack, and there was a sound of cannon on the city, and arrows shot out like rain. The arrows raining all over the sky were extremely dense, and the night was dark, making it difficult to see clearly. The Northwest Army was shot back again and again, with many casualties. Upon seeing this, Zhao Yun quickly ordered his soldiers to retreat. At this time, the barbarian soldiers on the suspension bridge swarmed up, hoping that Zhao Yun would rush over. Zhao Yun suddenly drew his gun and rushed into the crowd. They fought for a while. He saw that the barbarian soldiers were brave and not afraid of death, and fought tooth and nail to stop them. Zhao Yun was surprised and didn't want to be entangled anymore, so he withdrew his troops. The barbarian soldiers drove back Zhao Yun. It was already dark and they all retreated to the city to rest.
When Zhao Yun returned to the stronghold, Wei Yan saw that his subordinates all looked tired and said to Zhao Yun worriedly.
"General Zhao, the troops in the army are weak and everyone is tired. What should happen if the other army takes the opportunity to attack the camp?"
When Zhao Yun heard this, he couldn't help but show a bit of horror in his eyes. If it weren't for Wei Yan's reminder, he wouldn't have woken up yet. Zhao Yun's expression immediately became calm. After a while, Zhao Yun shot out two rays of light with his sword eyes, and then laughed with Wei Yan.
"Haha. I'm just waiting for the other army to attack. This is what the article leader can do."
Zhao Yun immediately told Wei Yan a plan. When Wei Yan heard this, his expression changed continuously and he couldn't help but exclaimed.
¡°General Zhao¡¯s plan is a great one, it kills two birds with one stone!!¡±
Zhao Yun and Wei Yan looked at each other and smiled, and Wei Yan followed Zhao Yun's arrangement and made his own arrangements.
It¡¯s the third update of the day again. Thousands of barbarians came out of the city in fear to build deep ditches and earthen fortresses. After a while, there was a roar of drums, and shouts of killing broke out from everywhere. The barbarian soldiers were so frightened that they ran away and retreated to the suspension bridge. They took up their weapons and prepared to fight. The torches on the city were in a mess, and the soldiers were loading their bows and arrows in preparation for an attack. I don't know how much time passed, but there was no movement in the distance. The shouts of killing just now seemed like they had never happened before. Just when the barbarian soldiers were suspicious, the shouts of killing were heard again, frightening the barbarian soldiers into panic again. This time, we can see it from all directionsThere were countless figures, but they didn't come to attack. This happened again and again, frightening the barbarian soldiers to the point of becoming tense. It was not until dawn that the shouts of killing that came from time to time were stopped.
Seeing this strange incident, the barbarian garrison in the city came to report Meng Huo. Meng Huo heard that the Northwest Army had attacked again last night, and that there had been no progress in his army's defense. He was so confused that he urgently called Huang Quan over for discussion. After hearing what happened before, Huang Quan pondered for a while, and seemed to have guessed the enemy's plan, and said in a solemn voice.
"This is a bluff by the other army. However, judging from what happened last night, the Northwest Army used a lot of soldiers and horses. In this way, the king can let it go and wait for work. After a few days, the army will attack his stronghold. We will definitely defeat that army!¡±
When Meng Huo heard this, he was full of doubts and asked Huang Quan.
"The Northwest Army has so many soldiers and horses, why don't they come and fight, instead they are just bluffing!?"
"Most of the northwest army are the king's former subordinates, and there are less than a few thousand Han soldiers. If the barbarians attack, we are afraid of them. But if we use our own soldiers and horses, we may suffer too many casualties, and it will be difficult to guard the camp and deter them. There are barbarians in the stronghold. The other army wants to retaliate with the strength of the Han people, so that's why."
Huang Quan patiently analyzed everything with Meng Huo. Meng Huo also felt the same after hearing this, and immediately followed Huang Quan's plan and gave each of his orders. In the following days, the Northwest Army made bluffs all night, and the barbarian defense progress was extremely slow. On the fifth day after the first watch of the night, when the moon had just risen, Meng Huo personally led a group of men and horses to kill the camp in the northwest.
Meng Huo saw that his stronghold was very quiet, and thought that the enemy army must not have expected that he would send troops to attack tonight. Meng Huo's lips curled up into a ferocious smile, he pulled out the sword from his waist, made a fierce move, and ordered his soldiers to attack. As soon as Meng Huo's order was given, shouts of killing suddenly erupted, and nearly five or six thousand barbarians were seen charging toward the northwest camp. Meng Huo galloped on his horse and rushed straight into the stronghold, but when he saw no one inside, his heart suddenly tightened and his face changed drastically. Knowing that he had been tricked, he quickly turned around and shouted an order to withdraw.
At this moment, two cannon shots were fired outside the village. Zhao Yun led an army of soldiers and horses to charge out from the forest on the left, and Wei Yan led an army of soldiers and horses to charge out from the forest on the right. The barbarian soldiers were unexpected and there was chaos. The two northwest armies attacked from the left and right, showing no sign of fatigue. Each of them fought so bravely that the barbarians broke into pieces and fled. When Meng Huo saw how brave the northwest soldiers were, he was confused and timid, so he quickly turned his horse and retreated. Zhao Yun rushed into the rebel army, and there was a shower of blood, and he met Meng Huo who was fleeing. Zhao Yun's sword shot out two frightening murderous auras instantly. He roared loudly, and his horse suddenly flew to intercept Meng Huo. When Meng Huo saw Zhao Yun, his face turned pale with fright, and he quickly reined in his horse and fled. Zhao Yun rushed forward in the rebel army, and several groups of barbarians came to block him. Zhao Yun angrily danced with his silver gentian spear and stabbed Meng Huo non-stop, fighting a bloody path to chase Meng Huo. Meng Huo walked away in embarrassment, turned into a small road, and looked at the mountain running down the mountain. It happened that it was dark at night, and Zhao Yun chased Meng Huo while the rebel army was rushing to kill him. Later, Zhao Yun and Wei Yan joined forces to lead the army to kill the scattered barbarians, captured more than 2,000 barbarians, and returned to the stronghold.
It turns out that in the past few days, most of the people shouting and bluffing outside the city were barbarians. Zhao Yun divided the barbarian soldiers into dozens of teams, each with fifty or sixty men. They were not given armor or weapons, and were monitored by seven or eight well-equipped Han soldiers. They were spread throughout the mountains and forests outside Zitong City, shouting and killing. . Therefore, most of the soldiers and horses in the northwest have been resting and recharging their strength in recent days, so they are fighting so fiercely just now.
But it was said that Meng Huo fled back to Zitong City and came to see Huang Quan angrily. Huang Quan saw Meng Huo furious and before he could react, he saw Meng Huo raising his sword to strike at him. Meng You saw this and quickly drew his sword to stop him. Huang Quan was so frightened that he quickly backed away. Meng Huo shouted loudly, his green eyes widened as he was so angry that he seemed to have lost all reason.
"Brother, please don't stop me!! This person is really a spy. I was almost killed by him just now. If I don't kill him, how can I vent my hatred!!!"
After Meng Huo finished drinking, he slashed and chopped violently with his sword. Meng You hurriedly waved his sword to resist, shouting in a loud voice.
"Your Majesty, calm down! If Huang Gong had an affair with that army, how could he dare to stay here!?"
When Meng Huo heard this, his huge body suddenly stopped. Huang Quan quickly calmed down and bowed to Meng Huo.
"My lord and Wen Bufan are incompatible with each other. How could I help the thief?! Your Majesty, please don't fall for the thief's tricks!!"
Meng Huo suppressed the anger in his heart, narrowed his green eyes, and immediately began to think deeply. Meng You then asked the soldiers who came with Meng Huo what had just happened. The barbarian general still had lingering fear on his face, so he immediately told him everything that had happened. After hearing this, Huang Quan realized that he had fallen into the trap. He quickly analyzed Zhao Yun's plans one by one, and his calculation was almost perfect. After hearing this, Meng Huo's anger subsided slightly, but he remembered that he had spent a lot of time, but the preparations were progressing slowly, and most of Wen Han's troops were approaching in the near future. If you miss the opportunity, you will be punished.
Meng You urgently persuaded Meng Huo.
"As the saying goes, there must be a gap in every hundred secrets. Victory or defeat depends on the military strategist.Common thing. How can your Majesty impose severe punishments just for a single mistake? What's more, if Huang Gong hadn't made a plan on the spot, we still don't know whether we could have withdrawn Zitong. Now we should work together to fight against the northwest bandits. If the king insists on blaming Huang Gong, he is not playing into the traitor's ambitions! ? "
Meng Youji spoke sternly and shouted, Meng Huo just woke up. Although he was not happy with Huang Quan in his heart, he still suppressed his anger and apologized to Huang Quan.
