Shu Han Confucian generals of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 10 Helpless City Guard Expert

"Yandu, why do you think Liu Bei and Liu Biao suddenly attacked now?" In Jiangling City, Cai Mao asked Qi Yue angrily. Liu Biao ran away in the first month, but it took half a year to send troops to attack them, which was really difficult for Cai Mao to understand.

"He is waiting, waiting for us to run out of food! They are also waiting for the Prime Minister's army to leave Runan and make way for them!" Quai Yue is also a little helpless. This is not a conspiracy at all. On the contrary, it is a naked conspiracy, which is clearly to bully you for lack of food and fodder.

"What should we do?" Cai Mao said helplessly. Don't panic, Dekui. Jiangling is the capital of Jingxiang, and the grain hoarded here is enough for the defense. Koi Yue also tried his best to comfort him. He didn't say anything: The army is enough, and the people are not necessarily enough. If it is a normal time, it can naturally help the people. But now that the war is going on, I can't take care of it. For this reason, it is inevitable that the people of Jingbei are uneasy.

"Well, it's hard to ride a tiger now, and I can only fight to the death!" Cai Mao also has no other choice. Kai Yue looked at Cai Mao, who was not very ambitious in front of him, and his heart was also rare. He and Cai Mao were in danger. Although he once controlled Liu Biao, it seems that it is really difficult to get things done with his own strength. Coupled with this year's drought, the situation is even worse.

"Yandu, can Huo Jun be reliable?" Cai Mao suddenly remembered something and asked quickly. Kui Yue smiled and said, "Don't worry about this, he is absolutely reliable."

"Huh?" Cai Mao knew that there was something in Kai Yue's words, so he quickly motioned him to make it clear. Khuai Yue and he didn't care about it. At the moment, he said directly, "Huo Jun's parents died early when he was a child, and his brother Huo Du raised Chengren. At present, Huo Du is dead, leaving his widow, all of whom are detained by me in Jiangling. If Huo Jun can't keep Yidu, his sister-in-law and nephew will go to see his eldest brother, haha!"

"So that's it. Heteroge is really thoughtful and resourceful!" Cai Mao also laughed, and then remembered something. He hurriedly said to Kuai Yue, "At present, Xiangyang is short of food and fodder, and it is necessary to send reliable people to transfer food and fodder from Jiangling and transport it to Xiangyang!"

"I have made arrangements for this matter. There is a person under my command, whose surname is Zhao Lei. This man is cautious, loyal and reliable, so he will escort the food and fodder!" The more you are calm and don't have to force you. Seeing that he was so confident, Cai Mao immediately felt much more at ease.

At this time, 30,000 Yangzhou troops came out of the Lujiang River, took a boat along Changjiang River, crossed Jiangxi, and crossed Jiangxia until Hanyang got off the ship. Then Zhao Feng led 25,000 troops to Yiling Avenue. Zhang Liao led 5,000 troops to walk Huarong Road as a partial division, and the two people crossed to Jiangling.

"Wen Yuan, you only have this city in Huarong County on your way. I hope you can break it as soon as possible and rush to Jiangling!" Zhao Feng also specifically told him before leaving.

"General, don't worry, Huarong Xiaoxian, it's not a problem to have more than 20 mite machines." Zhang Liao also patted his chest and made a ticket. Zhao Feng knew Zhang Liao's ability, and it was not surprising at present. At present, he said goodbye to Zhang Liao and led the army of 25,000 to Yiling Avenue and went straight to Jiangling.

The road Zhao Feng took is the road that Cao Yan refused to take in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. In fact, this Yiling Avenue is naturally much more spacious and easy to walk than Huarong Road, but it's just a little far away. On the way, before arriving at Jiangling, you need to pass through Hanyang, Bianxian, Yicheng, Genshan, and the five counties of public security. Kui Yue originally deployed troops in these five counties, but since the withdrawal of Cao's army in Runan, Kui Yue has to transfer more troops to the front line of Yiyang to block Guan Yu, and the troops here are not enough.

"Zhongye, you have been in Jingxiang for a long time. Do you know the situation of these five counties?" In this march into Jingxiang, Liu Bei specially sent civil servants and generals from Jing Xiang to follow the army. At present, Huang Zhong and Zhang Liao walk Huarong Road, Wen Ping accompanies Zhao Feng on Yiling Avenue, while on Guan Yu's side is Zhuge Liang participating in politics with the army. Zhao Feng knew that Wen Ping had been in Jingxiang for a long time, so he specially asked him about the details of the generals in these places.

"General, the generals of Hanyang and Genshan are my old troops, and we should persuade them to surrender. Deng Zhi, the county magistrate of the county, is from Yiyang. This person is familiar with me and can also persuade him to surrender. The general of Yicheng County is Cai Mao's confidant Song Zhong, who will never surrender. As for Wang Fu, the public security general, I don't know much. In terms of cities, the cities of the county and Yicheng are ordinary and not dangerous. Our throist can be completely useful, and the public security is slightly more dangerous. Wenpin replied.

"So that's it!" When Zhao Feng heard Wen Ping's introduction, he basically had a bottom in his heart. Genshan and Hanyang are not worried. Nine times out of ten, Deng Zhi in the county will surrender, and Wang Fu of the public security is estimated to be not the same as Cai Mao. If you are lucky, I'm afraid you really have to fight, that is, Yicheng County.

"Speaking of which, Huo Jun, the general of Yidu County, has never heard of it. I don't know what this man can do. Quai Yue actually sent him to guard Yidu." Wen Ping said to himself. Quo Yue is not a fool. Presumably Huo Jun has something special about it!" Zhao Feng is half speculating and half telling the truth. In fact, after learning that the general of Yidu was Huo Jun, Zhao Feng suddenly understood that Liu Pan's son was not good.

Throughout the Three Kingdoms, even from the calculation of the princes to Dong Zhuo, to the end of the return of the Three Kingdoms to Jin, the war lasted for more than 70 years, and there were many famous generals. However, Zhao Feng believes that there are only a few experts who can be regarded as defending the city.

Zhang Liao, with 7,000 people stationed in Hefei for many years, repeatedly repelled the invading of Eastern Wu, completely blocking Sun Quan's road to the north. From a certain point of view, he forced Lv Meng to cross the river in white. Although Dongwu's land warfare ability is that the mud can't support the wall, Zhang Liao is also a talent to play with Sun Quan as a mobile training bag.

Hao Zhao, with 3,000 people stationed in Chencang, let Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition return in vain. The embodiment of eternal wisdom, in the face of Chen Cangcheng, whom he guarded, could not do anything.

Wei Yan, overshadowed Zhang Fei and was appointed as the governor of Hanzhong by Liu Bei. Over the years, Cao Wei repeatedly invaded Hanzhong and returned without success. He was destroyed when he came less, and he was beaten back more often. He guarded Hanzhong, which was really solid.

Compared with the above, Huo Jun is slightly less famous, but this is mainly because he died prematurely. Even so, Huo Jun has a glorious record. During Liu Bei's attack on Chengdu, Huo Jun led less than 2,000 troops to guard the Jiaomeng Pass for three years. During this period, Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu both sent troops to attack, but they all returned in no a good job. The most exaggerated one was that Zhang Lu sent generals to support the ban and Xiang Cun to lead 20,000 troops to attack Jianmeng Pass, which was not defeated for half a year. In the last month, on a dark and windy night, Huo Jun was crazy to lead 800 warriors to raid the forbidden camp.

In the end, more than half of the 20,000 troops were killed and injured, and the ban was killed. Xiang Cun only led hundreds of people to escape back to Hanzhong. Since then, Zhang Lu has not dared to fight the idea of Mengguan.

Now that this guy is stationed in Yidu County, Zhao Feng knows that it is difficult for Liu Pan to escape any advantage. However, Zhao Feng still had a trace of doubt at this time: Huo Jun was loyal to Liu Bei in history. Why did he hang out with Cai Mao now?

Zhao Feng is still puzzled, but at this time, Liu Pan, who is in Yidu, is already a little crazy. The Yidu City guarded by Huo Jun is just like an iron-shell turtle, and he can't beat it.

The ladder attacked the city, and the city gave you a random arrow, and then dozens of strong soldiers pushed the ladder together with steel forks. Each ladder was pushed down, and dozens of people were killed.

Long-distance suppression with well randium? The oil jar was thrown over to you, and then lit it to watch you burn to death.

Break the wall with a rush? The garrison smashed down with a big stone strip, and the straight rush car was also smashed. After nearly half a month, Liu Pan lost thousands of people, but Yidu City still stood still. One night, Liu Pan wanted to take advantage of the night to sneak attack and organized hundreds of commandos to kill the city. As a result, I climbed up the city and found that all the stairs had been demolished. The commandoes were not ready to deal with it. The long-prepared defenders shot a random arrow, more than half of them were killed and injured, and the rest were forced to run back to the city along the ladder.

"Your grandma is Huo Jun. If I don't believe it, I really can't eat you?" Liu Pan was so angry that he couldn't wait to fly up to the city with his shoulders and wings to hold Huo Jun with thousands of knives. Once this kind of siege is delayed, it will be too long, which will have a great impact on the morale of the siege troops. Now Liu Biaoxiong is so angry that he wants to counter the rebellion. If he can't take it even if he can't take it in Yidu County, it's really a mirror. After another day of fierce fighting, Liu Pan was forced to rest and fight again.

"Wow!" Huo Jun at the top of the city was also a little relieved to see Liu Pan's army. At this time, his deputy general came forward and handed him a bowl of water, and Huo Jun took a sip to clean it.

"Lao Fu, the food and fodder have been escorted back?" Seeing that a lieutenant under his command was coming back, Huo Jun knew that he was sent to urge the food and grass yesterday, so he hurriedly asked.

"The bet is back." There is something in Fu Du's words. Huo Jun hurriedly asked for details when he heard this. Fu Duwei sighed and said, "I'm going to urge you to ask for food and fodder, but General Cai He, who is in charge of food and fodder, is only willing to give half of it. I said that it was hard for the defenders to defend the city, and it was difficult to maintain without food and fodder, but he actually asked us to drink porridge if we didn't have enough food and fodder!" The more Fu Duwei said, the more angry he became, and finally his voice was a little louder.

"It's unreasonable!" Huo Jun's deputy general was also seriously unhappy when he heard the words. Huo Jun sighed, "How can we fight without food and fodder?" There has been a great drought in Jingbei this year. There have been rumors among the people in Jingbei that Kuai Yue and Cai Mao have plotted to provoke heaven's anger, which has made Jingbei crops poor harvest. Although this rumor is ridiculous, many people believe it. Even in the past six months, tens of thousands of people migrated from Jingbei to Jingnan or Yangzhou.

"It's not that there is no food and fodder. Later, I met Captain Zhao, who escorted food and fodder for Xiangyang. He told me that there had never been a shortage of food and fodder for Cai Mao in Xiangyang. Cai and this guy only gave his eldest brother enough military food, and secretly sold all our military food to Yanzhou!" Fu Duwei said indignantly.

"Is there such a thing?" Huo Jun was also shocked this time. When his deputy general heard the words, he lowered his head and thought for a while. Then he looked up and said angrily, "General, the Cai brothers don't treat us as people, but let us guard the city but deduct food and fodder. Why do we have to work for them as traitors? It's better to go to the lord and kill these traitors!"

"Deputy General Liu, do you think I want to work for the hypocrite of Kaiyue? But our family is still in the hands of Jiangling Kouyue!" Huo Jun said dely, and Vice General Liu suddenly heard the words. On the contrary, Fu Duwei's eyes turned and seemed to think of something.

Huo Jun was helpless, but now there are people who are more helpless than him, that is Guan Yu. Sitting in the empty Chen County Taishou's house, Guan Yu was sulking there alone. Everyone under his command knew that he was in an extremely bad mood now and did not dare to touch his bad luck at this time.

"Why do you have to worry about it?" With this sound, a figure gently shaking the feather fan slowly stepped into the hall. Guan Yu looked up and saw this person, and his deep frown was also slightly stretched: "Kong Ming, you are here. What's the right way to deal with the situation now?"
