Chen stayed at the south gate, and Zhang Fei looked at the sergeant who was camping behind him, his face full of unhappiness.
"Why should the three generals be angry, when our army first arrived outside the city, they only need to camp and hold on, our army and the Guanzhong army agreed that they will capture Chenliu, and our army only needs to assist in besieging this city."
"Chen Liunai is a strong city, there are still twenty or thirty thousand households in the city, this is where Cao Cao's foundation is, if he can win it, he can help the eldest brother Kuang to help the Han family, since it is at his fingertips at the moment, why give it to the yellow-bearded child" "Three generals, our army and Sun Quan allied to attack Cao, and agreed with Eastern Wu that our army would seize the land of the central counties, and now Chen Liu has attracted the Wei army in Yanzhou, why should our army waste the lives of the soldiers, and the Wei army only needs to wait for Zhang Xiu to attack the city, and our army will move north to capture Jiyin, Shanyang and other places."
Zhang Fei sat on the ground, "If the person in charge of attacking Jiyin and Shanyang is this general, why am I so angry." ” Jian Yong smiled bitterly, "Three generals, although you can't take the city in this battle, you can collect more defeated troops and people when Chen Liucheng is broken, and fill it into the territory of my Yuzhou, and then the lord will also count it as your great achievement." ” Zhang Fei sighed, "But there are only more than 10,000 people in Zhang Xiu's department, when will they be able to capture Chen Liu?"
"Please also ask the three generals to be restless, Cao Cao in the north has returned to the vicinity of Yanmen, and now when he fights with Cheng Pu, if he can win, he will inevitably drive straight into the south and go to the party, when Lu Su will lead the army to contain the Wei army, and then he can order Ma Teng and Han Sui's troops to attack Chenliu, and then, it will be a good opportunity for our army to seize the counties of Yanzhou."
Zhang Fei bowed slightly, "That's it." ” At the beginning of the seventh year of Jian'an, the north was still snowing heavily, the Wei army broke Cheng Pu in Yanmen, beheaded 8,000 levels, Cao Cao ordered Yu Ban, Lejin, Xiahou Tang three ways to send troops, successively captured Yunzhong, Wuyuan, Shuofang three counties of the land.
At the beginning of February, Lu Su led the army to the north, fought in the Xihe, and charged the battle with the Xiliang Iron Cavalry of Ma Chao's department as the vanguard, broke the Cao army, beheaded 10,000 people, and recovered the Xihe.
Towards March, the main force of Cao's army moved east, from the north of Taiyuan County to the south, attacked Jinyang, and fought with the Lusu army for several days, with casualties on both sides.
At the same time, Ma Teng, Han Sui, and other 30,000 Xiliang elites such as Pang De arrived in Chenliu.
In mid-April, Liu Qi, the king of Wu, ordered the governor of Dadu Tai Shici to capture Lu and Dongping County.
At the end of April, the tens of thousands of Wei troops left behind in Chen Liucheng had suffered casualties.
In the meeting hall of King Wei's former residence, Chen Qun, Bao Xun, Zhu Ling and others looked at each other.
"Yushi Zhongcheng, now the city is about to be broken, but there is still General Zhang He in the east of our army in Baima to respond, our army might as well cross the river to the north and go north, this Yanzhou can no longer be defended."
"Since the day when the King of Wei fought for the Central Plains, with Yanzhou and Yuzhou as the foundation, during the battle of Guandu, he lost the land of Guanzhong and Liangzhou, and the battle of Huaibei lost Xuzhou and Huaibei; Now in the land of Henan, there are only a few counties left in Yanzhou, and they must also be discarded, so what way can our army retreat to the north in the future Liaodong now thinks that Dongwu is based on it, and after a year or two, Dongwu will seek peace with Fuyu, Xianbei, and Sanhan, but I am afraid that it will talk about us. ” Zhu Ling sighed, pressing the long sword on his waist with one hand, "I'll go to the city wall to inspect." ” "General Zhu."
Bao Xun stretched out his hand to stop him, "Although you have not stayed in Taishou, the previous edict of the King of Wei is to act cheaply, not to waste your life, to keep the elite of our army, and to seek him to fight again in the future." ” "There are only two or three thousand sons left under your command now, but there are 60,000 or 70,000 troops of Sun Liu outside the city.
"Bao Xun, if you want to be the one who escapes from the battle, you can go east by yourself, on the white horse, there is still General Zhang He to answer, I will not stop you."
Zhu Ling sneered and continued to speak: "I am deeply favored by the King of Wei, and I was ordered to stick to Chen Liu, how can I abandon the city and flee."
"But do you know that the King of Wei does not want to stick to Yanzhou, even if it is the old remnant of this foundation place, he must also give it up."
"Boom."
Zhu Ling suddenly pulled out the long sword at his waist and put it on Bao Xun's neck, his face was full of cold light, "You Xiu wants to talk nonsense and disturb the hearts of my army." ” "General Zhu, Shuye's words are not unreasonable."
Chen Qun stretched out his hand to push away the long sword around Bao Xun's neck, and stroked his beard with one hand, "Our army crossed the river from the east, went around to Hebei in Baima, and led the army to raid the unguarded Hanoi, or cut off Sun Quan's retreat." ” Zhu Ling's eyes widened, "With the ability of the two generals, Zhang He and Gao Lan, although they can capture Hanoi, there are still Ma Teng, Han Sui, and Zhang Xiu's soldiers in this Chen Liucheng, how can we help them."
Chen Qun turned his head, and his eyes showed a little essence, "Previously, the princes of Guanzhong and his Sun Zhongmou united, but it was just for the sake of Liangzhou and Guanzhong, but now that he Ma Teng and Han Sui have obtained the land where Chen stayed, they already have a foundation, and the table sent by King Wei to these two people may be of great use." ” Bao Xun's eyes moved, "The meaning of Cheng in the imperial history is to seal Ma Teng and Han Sui."
"Yes, maybe in the name of the Son of Heaven, summon these two people to Xuchang to meet them, and then kill them with assassins who are ambushed in the city."
Bao Xun's eyes narrowed, "Maybe you can kill someone." ” Chen Qun's heart moved, "Yes, just kill one person." ” At the beginning of May, Chen Liu fell, and Zhu Ling escorted Bao Xun, Chen Qun, and the Cao and Xiahou clans across the river and moved to Yecheng.
Sun Quan and Ma Teng were the assassins of Yanzhou, Chen Liuhou, Han Sui was the assassins of Liangzhou, Wuduhou, Ma Chao, and Pang De were all promoted two levels in a row.
At the end of May, Liu Bei captured Shanyang, Jiyin, and Dongjun.
In June, the Son of Heaven issued an edict ordering Ma Teng and Han Sui to move to Xuchang to meet him.
After Ma Teng and Han then discussed, Ma Teng led Ma Xiu, Ma Tie and other 3,000 iron horsemen to Xuchang to worship Liu Xie, the son of heaven, on the court.
At the palace gate, he was attacked by assassins and besieged with crossbows.
Ma Teng was killed by dozens of arrows, and Ma Xiu and Ma Tie were heavily injured, and they quickly returned to Chenliu.
That night, Ma Xiu went to Han Sui's camp to ask him to send soldiers and horses to investigate the matter, but Han Sui refused, but Ma Xiu found a letter from Cao Cao in Han Sui's tent.
On the letter, every urgent sentence was smeared with ink stains, and when Ma Xiu saw this, his face changed greatly, and he immediately returned to the camp to discuss with Ma Tie to raise troops and start first.
That night, Chen Liu's city was full of fire, Han Sui killed Ma Xiu with his generals Yan Xing and other generals, and then Zhang Fei led the army into the city to help the battle, stabbed Ma Tie with a spear, and Chen Liu fell.
When Liu Bei received Chen Liu's war report, it was already mid-June.
He stood on the edge of the Yellow River, with a helpless wry smile on his face, "Ma Teng and his second son died tragically, and nearly 20,000 Xiliang iron horsemen under Ma Chao's command can give up."
Third brother, why do you do this?"
"My lord, how should we deal with it," Elk Zhu, who was standing behind him, asked as he stepped forward.
"What does the military advisor mean?"
"Returning to the lord, the military advisor offered advice, the son of heaven, and crowned Han Sui as the Yanzhou Assassin History, the general of the chariot cavalry, and Chen Liuhou, and recruited this person to reject Sun Quan's soldiers."
Liu Bei's face turned ruthless, "Now that the skin has been torn, why don't our army take advantage of the situation to advance westward, capture Hanoi and Luoyang, and attack Guanzhong in one fell swoop." ”:
