Chapter 254 Battle! (two in one)

ten days later.
Outside the city of Liao, battle formations are crisscrossed and pennants are densely covered!
Ladders, siege vehicles, and trebuchets have all been deployed in front of the formation.

The command flag kept waving, and orders from various divisions continued to be issued. Liu De looked at Liao City not far away, and his heart was calm. After more than a year of fighting, Liu De had already adapted to the cruel battlefield.

Will succeed
Chu Ying stared at the Dongyu army gathering in the distance, and had already spotted Liu De who was wearing golden armor and surrounded by tiger guards.

He compared the distance with his hands, and shook his head secretly, it was too far away, even the most powerful crossbow machine in the army could not reach him, not to mention that all the bows and crossbows in the arsenal had been destroyed by Liu Gui. bleeding.

"Xiao Bu, when the enemy army gets close, they will release arrows. We don't have many arrows!" Chu Ying warned.

"General, please rest assured, the general will understand!" Xiao Bu agreed with his hands clasped.

Liu De raised his hand high, half a ring, and swung it down vigorously!

"Woooooo!"

"Boom boom boom!"

Blow the horn and beat the drums!
The Dongyu Army launched an attack!
The strength of this battle was not equal. The defenders in Liao City were all soldiers brought back by Chu Ying, about [-] soldiers, while Liu De only had more than [-] soldiers. Those who didn't know thought Liu De was crazy.

But Liu De, Xu Shu and the generals have carefully considered that the enemy's city is short of food, bows and crossbows, and the defenders can't last too long, so now is a good time to attack!

Of course, Liu De can also delay and trap Liaocheng. Sooner or later, due to lack of food, Chu Ying will have to go out of the city to fight Liu De.

But Liu De didn't have time to spend any more time with Chu Ying, so he had to get rid of him as soon as possible, and then support Liu Gui and Guan Yu.

So within ten days, Dong Yu's army quickly built the siege equipment and was ready to attack the city!

The trebuchets are launched first to deter the enemy and to damage the morale of the enemy troops. Even some small city walls may be directly smashed by the trebuchets. Moreover, Liu De's weapon suitability is A, which can be added to the siege vehicles and trebuchets. There is a lot of success, so Liu De is more and more fond of using trebuchets.

After several rounds of boulder attacks, the school lieutenants and captains of the Dongyu Army began to take turns commanding the army to attack the city!
"Kill!"

"Whoever climbs to the top of the city first will be rewarded with a hundred gold and promoted to a higher rank!" Jiang Lin shouted to his subordinate soldiers.

"Captain, the last general is willing to go!" Jiang Haifeng begged Jiang Lin for his life.In the army, they are not referred to as father and son, but as officials.

Jiang Lin took a deep look at his still immature son, and said, "Go! Be careful!"

"Yes!" Jiang Haifeng said excitedly, and secretly swore: I must attack the top of the city first and win the first victory!

"Archers, take cover!"

"Shhhhhh!"

Teams of archers began to release arrows to cover the attack of the swords and shields. The defenders were not to be outdone, and continued to counterattack with bows and arrows. However, because the arrows in the city were exhausted, the defenders were afraid to shoot hard. , The sparse arrows have little effect on Dongyu's army!
Now the bows and crossbows Chu Ying uses are all brought back from Liaoyuan City, and there are only these arrows in the city!
However, the archers of the Dongyu Army caused a lot of damage to the defenders!
The siege engine hit the city gate fiercely, but in order to strengthen the morale of the army, Chu Ying had already blocked the city gate with huge wood and bricks.

Swear to live and die with Liaocheng!

The offensive and defensive battle lasted until nearly evening before it gradually subsided.

"Liu De! You will never be able to conquer this city!" Chu Ying laughed aloud as she watched the Dong Yu army receding like a tide.

Liu De just watched the city silently for a while, and then returned to the camp. There is still more to be fought in this battle!

The Yang family is good at raising carrier pigeons, so a lot of information is passed on through carrier pigeons, and even in order to prevent being hunted and killed by falcons and humans, five or six pigeons are released at a time.

The delivery of the pigeons enabled Yang Zichuan to get outside intelligence and news earlier than others.

Feng Zhijing untied a small piece of cloth from the carrier pigeon's leg, and handed it to Yang Zichuan respectfully. Yang Zichuan waved his hand, "Tell me! I'm old, and I can't read such small characters clearly!"

"Yes!"

When Feng Zhijing saw the writing on the cloth, his heart was shocked, and his voice trembled: "Cao Sui's son Cao Zhuo attacked Luodu, Chen He died of illness, Li Zhen and Ji Changyou were killed by Cao Zhuo, the emperor was deposed and the first prince was established, Millions of people were plundered, money and food were sent to Xizhou, and finally Luodu was burned down!"

A gleam of light flashed in Yang Zichuan's cloudy eyes. He had been an official for decades and had already calmed down, but when he heard the news, Yang Zichuan's heart still throbbed.

I don't know if it's joy, I don't know it's sadness.

"The big week is over!" Yang Zichuan concluded, "Is there any other news?"

"No more!" Feng Zhijing shook his head and said.

Because Yanzhou is located in northern Xinjiang, almost all the news will be learned very late. Yang Zichuan learned the news of Cao Zhuo breaking the city thanks to the Yang family's carrier pigeon technology. For example, Liu De is not clear at all now. What happened in the Central Plains?
Moreover, Jinyang Pass, the only point of contact between Yanzhou and the outside world, is being attacked by the Beiping Army. Many intelligence contacts have been interrupted, making it even more difficult to obtain information.

Li Yun has just issued a call for thieves, and the news has just crossed the river. It may take two months for Yanzhou to know the news!
"Report!"

Suddenly there was a whistle from outside the door.

"Come in!" Feng Zhijing said.

A guard cavalry came in with strides, kowtowed and said: "Master, an unknown army was found 6000 miles behind our army, the number of which is about [-]-[-]!"

"Five 6000 people?"

Yang Zichuan pinched his sparse goatee, thought for a while and said, "Go and call Tian Zhang here!"

"Yes!" Ling Bing cupped his hands and retreated.

"Duke Ming, this army may be under Liu Gui and Guan Yu's troops!" Feng Zhijing whispered.

"It's not possible, it's them! Liao City seems to be broken, but what I didn't expect was that they were so bold. Five or six thousand people dared to go deep alone and wanted to support Guo Zidong. This is a naked attack on our army. Contempt!"

"My lord, you are looking for me!" After a while, Tian Zhang came to Yang Zichuan's big tent and bowed his hands.

"Liu Gui and Guan Yu have led 6000 people to the rear of our army. If we don't get rid of them as soon as possible, they will seriously threaten us! The government ordered you to lead 2 people to destroy them, and bring Liu Gui and Guan Yu's heads. See me!" Yang Zichuan ordered in a sharp voice.

"Liu Gui and Guan Yu are both bear and tiger generals, and the last general begs my lord to temporarily borrow the Dong brothers under the latter's command!" Tian Zhang pleaded.

"Dong Zhen can't move, Dong Han can go with you!" Yang Zichuan ordered.

"The last general takes orders!" Tian Zhang kowtowed!
"General Liu, Yang Zichuan's camp is thirty miles ahead!" Guan Yu said to Liu Gui.

"kindness!"

Liu Gui said: "Set up camp, arrange sentry cavalry, and send someone to see if we can contact Dongfu!"

Guan Yu nodded, and ordered Liao Hua to go to Dongfu City in person to see if there was a chance to contact the defenders of Dongfu City. Liao Hua rode there with four school swordsmen.

The distance of thirty miles is far, but it is also close. When Liao Huaxing reached more than 20 miles, he suddenly found that there were many people in front of him.

"Are there soldiers and horses?"

Liao Hua was shocked, and said to the school swordsman beside him, "Let's go and hide for a while."

Liao Hua and the four school swordsmen hid in a small forest not far away, watching the army passing by secretly. Liao Hua looked at the length of the army and was secretly shocked: "There are at least 2 horses here, and the direction they are going is exactly the direction of my army. Camp, the enemy has spotted our army!"

"Lieutenant Liao, what should we do now!" a school swordsman asked.

Liao Hua said anxiously: "Go back and tell General Liu and General Guan about the situation here. Go south. According to the fellow villagers, there is a small road in the south that you can go straight through. Twenty thousand soldiers and horses must march slowly. You must speed up. Try to tell the news to the two generals ahead of the enemy!"

"Yes! Don't worry!" the school swordsman assured.

"move!"

Liao Hua patted him on the shoulder and urged him.

Seeing the figure of the school swordsman leaving, Liao Hua said to the other three people: "It's not too late, let's try to reach Dongfu City as soon as possible and meet Guo Zidong!"

Liao Hua led the three of them around the army on the road, and headed towards Dongfu according to the tips of the villagers.

"General, the defense here is too tight!"

The four of Liao Hua found several roads, all of which were guarded by enemy troops, and sentry cavalry patrolled along the way. Liao Hua wiped the sweat off his face and said, "I don't believe this road to Dongfu, he, Yang Zichuan, is really all-powerful. Stay! Let's go south and go around!"

"But if we go south, we don't even know the road there!"

"Don't be afraid, Dongfu is a big county, and it extends in all directions. There must be roads that the enemy doesn't know. We can ask the people along the way. We would rather go a little further, and complete the task assigned to us by the general!" Liao Hua comforted.

"Let the captain command you!" The three of them bowed one after another.

"Okay! Come with me!"

Liao Hua nodded and drove away!

"General Liu, General Guan, this is what I saw! The enemy army is already coming towards us. Judging by the speed, the distance is only a dozen miles!" The school swordsman told Liu Gui and Guan Yu what he saw. of confession.

Guan Yu stroked his long beard lightly, and said: "Don't panic, since the enemy army has discovered us, then let's have a good fight with them. In the eyes of a certain person, the enemy army is just a group of peddlers, so what's the matter?" fear!"

Liu Gui stood up and laughed loudly: "General Guan's words are correct, pass the order down, line up and wait for the enemy! Get ready to meet our 'old friend'!"

"Report! The enemy has already lined up in front of us!" A sentinel came to report!
Tian Zhang opened his mouth and laughed: "Hey! The reaction is quite fast! The whole army slows down and moves, don't let the enemy take advantage of it!"

Turning around, he said to Dong Han who was quite silent beside him: "General Dong, then Liu Gui and Guan Yu should ask the general to deal with it!"

Dong Han twisted his body on the horse, and the huge weight of his body made the horse under him tremble. Dong Han said in a low voice: "Then Liu De does have a few people with high martial arts skills. My lord has met Liu De once. Those two It still left a deep impression on me! They are called Zhang Fei and Dian Wei!"

Tian Zhang added: "Dian Wei is Liu De's personal guard. It is said that his martial arts are indeed very strong. He is good at using short halberds. Within ten steps, he can hit a hundred shots! When Zhang Fei confronted Lin Hu in Baoshan, he fought hard with hundreds of people. Lin Hu Wanqi captured 2000 people and became famous for a while!"

"These two are going to have a meeting sooner or later, but Guan Yu's name is louder than these two! I have never seen it before, and I think there must be some skills with this name! I also heard that Guan Yu's subordinate There is a BMW with a body that cannot be carried by an ordinary war horse, so I just snatched it up for me to ride on!"

Although Dong Han mentioned that Guan Yu might have some skills, Tian Zhang saw the disdain in his words.

Tian Zhang quickly advised: "The general must not be careless. The Hu people have invaded the border for decades and have never had a defeat. All of them are brave, but they don't want to be killed by Guan Yu. Hu nobles like Captain Zuo, please be careful, General!"

Dong Han waved his hand: "General Tian, ​​don't want to spoil your prestige with other people's aspirations. In the eyes of a certain barbarian, those dog heads are easy to pick! Don't make a fuss! If this Guan Yu is really capable, then a certain person will definitely take out twelve Come on with all your strength, let's take a look at it!"

"Oh! I hope so!" Tian Zhang sighed inwardly as he looked at Dong Han who was proudly raising his head.

The two armies lined up a stone's throw apart!
Dong Han rode to the center of the formation of the two armies with a big knife on his shoulder, and shouted: "Where is Guan Yu? Hurry up and fight with a certain one for [-] rounds!"

Liu Gui looked at Dong Han who came forward to call for battle, and said to Guan Yu: "General Guan! That man is Yang Zichuan's confidant Dong Han, who is eight feet tall, has a body like a bear, and has extraordinary martial arts skills. It’s just that the reputation is not obvious! I met this person with the old master back then, and it was really amazing! I didn’t expect Yang Zichuan to send him out, is General Guan sure of victory?”

Liu Gui had contact with Dong Han back then, and knew that with his own martial arts, he might be able to last more than ten rounds with Dong Han, but now he can only rely on Guan Yu!
Guan Yu caressed his long beard lightly, his eyes flashed brightly, and said: "A certain person went south with the lord to kill Cao Sui. At the beginning, Cao Sui needed a few of us to join forces to subdue him, but now this certain self-confidence is not weaker than Cao Sui, but This man is still a little short of Cao Sui! Except for a certain person in our army, Zhang Fei, Qin Qiong, and Dian Wei are also comparable in strength to this thief, so General Liu Gui, don't worry!"

"General Guan has such confidence, that's really great!" Liu Gui laughed.

At this time, Dong Han's wanton cries reached everyone's ears
"Hey! Guan Yu, come out quickly! Don't tell me you're an eggless seed? You're too scared to come out!"

The state army behind Dong Han also burst into laughter when they heard Dong Han's mockery!

"What a thief!"

Guan Yu was obviously annoyed by Dong Han, and his cheeks, which were originally like jujubes, became more and more red.

"Let someone come and take your dog's life!"

Guan Yu held the Azure Dragon Saber and rode a red rabbit horse to the front of the formation!
As soon as Dong Han saw the red rabbit horse under Guan Yu's seat, a flash of greed flashed in his eyes, he yelled, swung his knife and rushed towards Guan Yu, "Mice, leave the BMW, let me live!"
