Chapter 98 Defense

In the county government of Yangxin County, Liu Qi looked at the county lieutenant in front of him with a gloomy face and said, "You mean that there are only 300 strong men in the county?"

The county lieutenant lowered his head and trembled a little, "Big prince, Yangxin County is close to Jiangdong. Jiangdong soldiers and horses often come to the riot county. The population of the county is less than ten, and some people with a little family background have already moved away. At present, they can only make up 300 strong men and 100 people in the county government are exactly 400 people. It's really impossible to gather more strong men. . "

Liu Qi took a look at the county lieutenant and was silent for a while and said, "In this case, 400 people will be fine. You use the county's inventory to arm these 400 people for the time being." After saying that, he looked at Wei Yan beside him and said, "From now on, you will be the Sima beside me for the time being, leading 400 people and reinforcements from other counties."

The county lieutenant looked at Liu Qi with an embarrassed face. Liu Qi glanced at the county lieutenant, and the county lieutenant was busy preparing. There was not much inventory in the county. This time, I was afraid it would be used up at once. The county lieutenant was a little painful.

Wei Yan, who was beside him, was shocked. He stayed and really hoped to perform well in front of Liu Qi. Unexpectedly, Liu Qi directly let him lead 400 people, although he was a strong man of 400 people. Wei Yan restrained his mind and immediately came forward and said, "The last general will obey."

Liu Qi nodded and looked at Wei Yan and said, "No one in the county is available for the time being. Since you are extraordinary in martial arts and familiar with military tactics, these 400 people will be handed over to you for the time being. I hope you can integrate them before the arrival of the Jiangdong army. If you can't do it now, you can also go to Jiangxia immediately."

Wei Yan shook his head and said firmly, "Please rest assured that you will not disappoint the eldest son." Although it is a little dangerous to stay, if he leaves now, I'm afraid he will never be accepted by the eldest son again. He has already understood that this is also a test for him. If he can take care of these 400 people, he will have the opportunity to stay directly with the eldest son. If he can't bring it well, he doesn't say anything.

Liu Qi nodded and said, "In that case, you can take people to repair the wall first." Wei Yan took the order and left.

"Lord." Gan Ning ran in and said, "The soldiers who went to the counties for help have been sent out, but only the two counties closest to Yangxin County, Tongshan and Xining, can arrive. The other counties are too far away and may not be able to get there before the arrival of the Jiangdong army."

Liu Qi sighed, "How much can I gather? Can the soldiers who went to Nanjun and Jiangxia go?"

Gan Ning said, "The lord is assured that he has gone. It is the soldier of Feihuwei who went to Nanjun. He can reach Nanjun day and night with four horses equipped with the handwriting of the master and General Wang. The soldiers going to Jiangxia should also arrive in a day with the handwriting of General Wang according to the instructions of the master."

Liu Qi was relieved. As long as he persisted for a day, reinforcements would come. He had placed his hope on the Flying Dragon Army in Nan County. As for Huang Zu in Jiangxia, it was just a chance.

Two hours later, Jiangdong's soldiers and horses were less than five miles away from Yangxin County, and the whole Yangxin County was like a tight clockwork. The soldiers and horses of Tongshan and Xinning also arrived in Yangxin County half an hour ago. The Xinning County lieutenant personally came with 500 soldiers and horses, while the Tongshan County lieutenant came with 600 soldiers and horses, and the number of soldiers and horses in Yangxin County also reached more than 2,000.

Liu Qi, 1,500 soldiers in Yangxin County, Tongshan County and Xinning County, were all under the command of Wei Yan. Wei Yan did not know what method he used to subdue 400 people in Yangxin County in just one time. Liu Qi did not hesitate to hand over the soldiers and horses of Tongshan and Xining to Wei directly. Extended.

After simple repair, the wall should be able to resist the attack of the Jiangdong army, while the gate is directly blocked by boulders. Jiangdong's soldiers and horses are chasing them and it is impossible to bring too much siege equipment. As long as they resist the first round of attack, it will be much easier.

At this time, Wei Yan was stationed on the city wall with 1,500 soldiers and horses. Although it seemed to be a little different from the strictly trained soldiers and horses, it stabilized the position. Every few steps, a flying tiger guard stood in the rear, which made the soldiers in front of him a little curious and depressed.

Flying Tiger Guard and Jinfan Thieves not far from the city gate are also ready to be rescued at any time. And the Jiangdong army in the distance has appeared in the vision of Liu Qi and others. The soldiers on the wall could even see the banner towering into the clouds and the heavy footsteps.

..............................

Less than 30 miles away from the official road in Yangxin County, Feilongwei is moving forward rapidly. The first person is the deputy general hired by the general.

A flying dragon soldier said, "Is the general going to Jiangxia?"

The deputy general shook his head and said, "No, Huang Zu, the governor of Jiangxia, has always been wrong with us. This time, Jiangxia came to rescue the eldest son. Don't pay attention to Huangzu."

The soldier was also a little dissatisfied with Huang Zu and said, "This Huang Zu is really too arrogant to pay attention to the general."

The deputy general shook his head and did not say anything. Huang Zu thought that he was arrogant when he killed Sun Jian with his men. He did not pay attention to Wang Wei and Wen Ping more and more. The Flying Tiger Army and the Flying Dragon Army were a little dissatisfied with Huang Zu. It's just that Wen Ping and Wang Wei haven't talked, and they can't secretly embarrass Huang Zu.

The deputy general turned his head and said, "Go directly to the area of Chaisang. The eldest son and the Cai family are sworn against each other, and I'm afraid that Huang Zu, the eldest son from the Huang family, will not return to Jingzhou from Jiangxia."

"No." The soldier nodded and said that he was not talking, and Feilongwei and his party galloped along the official road.

"General, what do you think that is?" A flying dragon guard pointed to the front.

The deputy general looked up and saw several horses flying towards them on the official road in front of him. The front horse was very eye-catching with black armor on the shoulder of a soldier in white armor. The deputy general looked at the armor that was completely opposite to them and was shocked, "Flying Tiger Army?" The deputy general immediately urged him to say in his heart, "Has the eldest son returned to Jingzhou?"

Not long after, Feihuwei had come to the deputy general and saw Feilongwei's dress and stop in front of Feilongwei. He arched his hand and said, "Can General Wenpin be in front?"

The deputy general urged immediately and said, "The general is in the army behind. What's the matter with you?"

Fei Huwei took the letter from Liu Qi and Wang Yi and said, "I'm following the order of the eldest son and General Wang to ask General Wenpin for help. Please make way."

The deputy general was shocked and said, "What? Is the eldest son in danger? Where is it?" The members of Feihuwei were about to answer and the deputy continued to say, "You give me the letter, and I will order someone to give it to the general. You can immediately take me to rescue the eldest son."

Hearing the words of the deputy general, Fei Huwei shook his head and said, "I want to hand over the letter to General Wenpin in person, and ask General Haihan." After saying that, the letter has been put away.

The deputy general was not angry and said, "Then tell Ben where the eldest son is trapped first?"

This time, Feihu Wei did not hide: "The eldest son is trapped in Yangxin County. The 10,000 army in Jiangdong is about to arrive in Yangxin County and Sun Ce's 2,000 personal guards. The eldest son should be able to wait for the rescue of General Wenpin for a period of time."

He was happy to hear that Liu Qi arrived at the deputy general of Yangxin County, but he heard that the face of the 10,000 army deputy general in Jiangdong was a little solemn. When Fei Huwei said that Jiangdong's personal guard was the deputy general, his face had changed. The deputy general took a breath and immediately pointed to a flying dragon guard beside him and said, "Take him to see the general and tell the general that I will support him first." After saying that, he rushed to Yangxin County with 2,000 flying dragon guards.

And the Flying Dragon Guard rushed to the Wenpin army with the Flying Tiger Guard.
