Chapter 302
Chapter 302
"General, Liu Bei's army has set up camp three miles away from the city!" Hao Zhao was checking the map in the Lingfu of Chencheng County, when a soldier came in to report.
"Got it, let's go investigate!" "
No!" After
the soldier went out, Hao Zhao stood up and paced back and forth in the hall.
Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, Zhang Fei, Chen Zhi, these people, either the world's heroes, or wise strategists, or the ten thousand enemies of the three armies of the brave crown, now jointly led the army to attack Chencheng, but Hao Zhao did not have the slightest fear in his heart, some were just excited.
For defending the city, Hao Zhao is full of confidence in himself. Although there were only 5,000 soldiers and horses defending Chen Cang at the beginning, he believed that the 30,000 Han troops outside the city could not break through the city. And after that battle, he will definitely become famous, just like Huo Jun in Jingzhou.
But he didn't expect that at that time, Jingzhou Mu Liu Liang did not attack, but only confronted him outside the city. On the other hand, let Deng Ai make a surprise soldier, go to Beidi County, seize Tianshui, completely cut off his back road, and become a lone army, in order not to let the soldiers make senseless sacrifices, he had to surrender.
Fortunately, the lord Liu Jun trusted him very much, and this time he handed over such an important city to him. Now he has 10,000 soldiers and horses under his command, and there are many instruments to defend the city, and the wind crossbow has made people feel terrified, and he has also sent him many invincible heavenly thunders.
With these big killing weapons, Mo said that Liu Bei only had 20,000 soldiers and horses, and even if it was 50,000, he didn't care at all.
In this battle, he not only wanted to hold the city, but also let Liu Bei suffer great losses under the city, and he wanted to fight the prestige of the Han army, but also the prestige of his Hao Zhao.
"Come, prepare a horse and go
to the city!" "
No!"
After a while, Hao Zhao came to the city tower.
"General, the matters of defending the city have been prepared, please rest assured!" Deputy General Su saw Hao Zhao coming up and immediately introduced the situation of the city, and his tone was also full of excitement.
Hao Zhao looked at it, and saw that in the center of the city wall, there were five windy crossbows placed in turn, each with ten iron long arrows on it, and the strings had been set.
A small cabin was built in one corner, and 20 invincible heavenly thunders were neatly placed in it.
These two are the biggest weapons for defending the city.
In addition, the rolling wood thunder stones were piled up almost all over the city, and the big ding for making gold juice was ready, and the top was stuffed with firewood. Crossbowmen, sword and shield soldiers, and strong men covered each other and stood at the battlements of the city wall. And near the gate hole, there are two large millstones tied by ropes with brackets on them, which are specially used to deal with crashing wood.
There were two thousand soldiers above the head of the city, one thousand defenders at each of the other three gates, and another five thousand soldiers and horses in the barracks of the city, ready to support everywhere.
Hao Zhao was very satisfied with Su Ze's arrangement, "After this battle, I will definitely write to the Lord and ask for credit for
you!" "Thank you General
!" "Look, General, Liu Bei has sent someone!"
At
this time, I saw more than a dozen soldiers coming out of Liu Bei's barracks, the first one was on a horse, and the group came all the way to the city.
"It turned out to be him!" Hao Zhao saw that the person who came knew him, and a smile appeared on his face.
"General, he is..."
"This man is my fellow countryman, named Jin Xiang.
"The two armies are at war, what is he going
to do?" "What else can he do besides persuade to surrender?"
Su
laughed loudly, "Liu Bei is like a dog who lost his family, he has no place to stand, and he even sent someone to persuade him to surrender, which is really ridiculous!"
Jin Xiang threw his hands under the city and said loudly.
"Jin Xiang, now that you and I are each the master, and the two armies are at war, in order to avoid injury and anger, let's go back!" said Hao Zhao coldly.
"Bo Dao, is this your way of hospitality?" Jin Xiang was not angry, and said to Hao Zhao with a smile, "The old people came to see you, just talking outside the city, are you afraid that I alone will be able to break through your city?"
If you are still my countryman, you will only lead an army to attack. If you say more, even if I recognize you, my bow and arrow will not recognize you!" Hao Zhao's face sank after speaking, "If the enemy army outside the city dares to take another step forward, shoot them all!"
"Bo Dao, you are originally descending, even if you have a hundred centers for the Han King Liu Jun, people may not accept your affection. My lord has already allied with the King of Wei, this time 350,000 troops, seven ways to fight, the King of Han will be defeated, your last return was a last resort, the King of Wei will not blame you, my lord will not look down on you, I hope you are good to yourself!"
After Jin Xie finished speaking, he took a dozen soldiers and returned to the camp.
"General, today's meeting may not be good for the general!" Su said with some worry, "If these words reach the mouth of the lord, it is inevitable that they will be suspected!"
The Lord Gong is wise and martial, and he will never believe rumors!" Hao Zhao looked very relaxed, "Last time in Luoyang, Sima Yi used a letter from the King of Wei to try to separate the Lord and Lord Zhong Xiu, but it was quickly recognized by the Lord Lord, we just need to guard the city!"
After Jin Xiang returned to Liu Bei's tent, he explained in detail.
"Hmph, if in my opinion, it is enough to lead the army to directly attack the city, and send people to persuade him to surrender, not only will he lose his prestige, but he will also lose face!" After Zhang Fei heard this, he became angry.
He originally disdained to persuade, not to mention that Hao Zhao was just a nobody.
"Third brother Hugh has a lot to say, the military master must have a deep meaning in doing this!" Liu Bei said after looking at Zhang Fei and then at Zhuge Liang.
"The Lord is right, Hao Zhao can't just surrender.
"No, this move has already planted roots in the
Han army!" "What root?"
"Hao Zhao's untrusted root!" Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan, "
Hao Zhao was originally a general, and he did not have deep roots in the Han army. Although we can now command the soldiers, once we attack the city urgently, the Han army suffers heavy casualties, and the soldiers defending the city are resentful. At that time, I have planted this root, and it will be time to sprout!" "
The strategy of the military master, it is really clever!" Mi Zhu was amazed at Zhuge Liang.
"Third brother, don't apologize to the military master!" Liu Bei glared at Zhang Fei and said.
"Military master, it is the old Zhang who is rude, does not know the military master's schemes, and hopes that the military master will forgive him!" Zhang Fei has a very straightforward personality, knows that he is wrong, and apologizes unambiguously, and bows to Zhuge Liang.
"Yide is exempt, don't blame those who don't know!" Zhuge Liang smiled.
"But military master, this task of attacking the city is none other than me
!"
"Ha..." Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan a few times, "Well, tomorrow Yide personally led 5,000 soldiers and horses to attack the city with all his strength!"
