A day later, Ruyang City Head.
Looking at the barracks stretching for one or two miles outside the city, Zhang Xiu's face was solemn.
He originally wanted to give up the city to rush to the aid of Pingyu, but he never thought that Zhou Yu would come so quickly, and the county towns before Ruyang would be captured by Zhou Yu almost effortlessly.
"Father, Zhou Yu followed with 20,000 people, but he didn't escort too much grain and grass, he wanted to besiege the city without attacking, and he couldn't give Pingyu to Liu Bei."
Zhang Xiu glanced at her son Zhang Quan and shut up.
At this time, an arrow shot straight into the battlement of the city wall and pierced into a flagpole.
Zhang Xiu's face changed, and when he reached the battlement of the city wall, he saw that he was riding a horse outside the city and turned back, and the person who came was Han Dang, the general of the Sun family.
"General."
The guards took the cloth on the arrow, Zhang Xiu opened it and looked at it, and his face changed slightly.
"Hmph, Zhou Yu'er, how dare you insult me."
"Father, Zhou Yu is proposing to his little sister on behalf of Sun Quan" Zhang Quan's face was slightly moved, "But his Sun Quan's soldiers are only 5,000 people, how dare he propose to recruit his father as a general."
Zhang Xiu glared at him back, "Don't mention this matter again, I am the general under Prime Minister Cao Cheng, how can I betray the master." ” Zhang Quan's complexion changed slightly, and he wanted to stop talking, he wanted to say that if it weren't for the dispute between Li Dao and Guo Yan back then, why would they retreat to Nanyang, and now they are sending people under the fence and suffering from that nest.
"General Zhang Xiu, your uncle and nephew are all Xiliang brave generals, in the past, galloping in the land of Liangzhou, commanding the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, majestic, where they passed, no one can stop them, now, why follow the queen of Cao Mengde, for the saddle before and after the horse, but for its abandoned son, the battle of Xuzhou, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry under your command was completely damaged, but now it is abandoned by Cao Cao, let it go" Han Dang spat under the city, staring at the city, impassionedly persuaded to surrender.
"Han when you, you don't want to say vain outside the city, the prime minister guards the gate of Xuchang with me, but he values the general, my Xiliang Erlang is not good at fighting, and he is completely damaged, and the prime minister gives me 3,000 fine horses, this is a trust, I thank the prime minister for his great grace, how can I betray him" "Shoot the Arrow" As dozens of arrows fell, Han Dang could only swing his gun to resist, and retreated to the camp after reining in his horse.
He walked to the camp with a dejected face, "Dudu, that embroidery is not in the first place, why should we waste such efforts to persuade us to surrender." ” "If there is no embroidery, we can't open the gate."
Zhou Yu squinted and smiled.
"Governor, that poor place, what use are we going to come, this land of Wancheng is still rich, if we go north, I'm afraid" Zhou Yu pointed at him with a smile, "I'll ask you, what about Dong Zhuo?"
"Thieves in trouble."
"Although he is a thief in a troubled country, he also has the ability to be a traitor."
Lu Su took over with a smile, "The person he relies on is only the elite of Xiliang, Zhang Xiu is an old general of Xiliang, and now the Xiliang army is scattered, after Cao Cao is defeated, those who return to Xiliang, those who are captured and surrendered in the four towns, and those who hide in various counties and villages, if he goes to recruit troops, he can also recruit a soldier of thousands of people." ” "But there are still Ma Teng and Han Sui in Liangzhou now," Han Dang still has worries in his heart.
Zhou Yu put one hand on the case, "These two people don't have to be afraid, as long as we get out of the customs, this northwest land will belong to my lord." ” Han Dang frowned, "Then how to let Zhang Xiu come down" Zhou Yu kept his mouth shut and looked at Lu Su in the tent.
Lu Su smiled: "It's anti-Ji'er." ” That night, the third report for help, from Pingyu to Ruyang, Li Tong sent a message, he gathered more than 1,000 strong people in the city, and Zhang Fei had fought all night, and now the city is broken tomorrow, if Zhang Xiu does not save him, he Li Tong will die in the city.
In the second half of the night, Zhang Xiu had already ordered all the soldiers and horses, "Wu'er, you and I each lead a fine cavalry, you immediately lead the army to retreat to the territory of Chen State, after I save Pingyu, I will lead the army to join you." ” "Whoa."
Zhang Quan took five hundred elite horsemen, galloped in the starry night, and only ten miles out of the city, and was ambushed.
Trapped in horse pits, stumbling horses, and bows and arrows ambushed in the mountains and forests, and two hundred elite horsemen led by Cheng Pu to stop it, Zhang Quan was cut off the horse by Cheng Pu, tied up by five flowers, and sent to Zhou Yu's tent.
Zhou Yu waved his hand, "A good student should take care of General Zhang Xiao, and he must not be lazy." ” "The governor was clever, and he could have predicted that Zhang Xiu would abandon the city, and Zhang Quan would leave Chen Guo."
Zhou Yu smiled and pointed at Lu Su, "This Naizijing arranged for the sentry to find out, that Li Tong was defeated by Zhang Fei, retreated to Pingyu, and was in a precarious situation, if Zhang Xiu is not saved, he will definitely die, Zhang Xiu is a general, how can he not be saved" "Can we coerce Zhang Quan and force Zhang Xiu to come down," Cheng Pu squinted and said.
Zhou Yu shook his head slightly, "I have ordered General Han Dang to lead the army to block the ramp, before sunset, Liu Bei sent someone to urge us to enter the army, this person is also a hero, and Pingyu will definitely fall tonight." ” As Zhou Yu said, that night, Zhang Fei broke through the west gate of Pingyu, and Li Tong led more than 100 remnants of soldiers to walk away from the east gate, but was blocked by Guan Yu who was lying in the middle of the road, and was beheaded by him.
After Zhang Xiu retreated from Handang, he arrived in Pingyu, and he was already lacking in skills.
When he was leading the army to Chen State, Zhou Yu had already led Cheng Pu and other generals to go down to the village and stop him.
Zhang Xiu immediately raised his gun, and more than 2,000 elite horsemen behind him stared at Zhou Yu in front of the camp opposite.
"The general is heroic and heroic, why are you willing to be coerced by that thief, if you are willing to surrender to my lord, we will create a great cause together, and he will be crowned a marquis and worship the general."
When Zhang Xiu was hesitating, the rear army came to report that Liu Bei had led the army to kill.
"Father, don't hesitate any longer, Cao Cao is not benevolent, even a mere Li Tong can also handle your father and son, why not go against him Cao Cao, we will go north with the governor of Zhou, fight back to Xiliang, gather the old sons, and join the great cause."
While Zhang Xiu was groaning, Zhou Yu glanced at Lu Su beside him, and Lu Su immediately ordered a sergeant to ride a horse to Zhang Xiu and hand Zhang Xiu a letter.
"Zhou Yu, you dare to do this" Zhang Xiu was furious, raising a gun and pointing at Zhou Yu angrily.
If he was asked to hand over this handwritten letter from Zhang Quan to Xuchang, he would not be able to wash it even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
He glared at Zhang Quan with hatred, and in the end, he couldn't hang his head.
"If the general is willing to join the great cause with my lord, I Zhou Yu is willing to go to the Son of Heaven and ask for the history of Liangzhou for the general."
"Liangzhou Thorn History" Zhang Xiu was a little moved in his heart, and he immediately handed it over, "I am willing to join the great cause from the governor." ” He turned over and dismounted, and when he stepped forward to meet Zhou Yu, he was still a little hesitant in his heart.
The two thousand elite horsemen behind him can fight Zhou Yu head-on, but Zhang Quan has been ordered by Sun Quan to be the Wancheng Order, if he does not surrender, just this edict is presented in front of the Xuchang case, Cao Cao can no longer trust him, after all, there is still a big grudge between him and Cao Agui.
Zhang Xiu is still the former Northland Gun King, but beside him, there is no Jia Wenhe, who can influence his thoughts
