Chapter 373 Zang Ba's mockery

Just as Cao Cao led a large army to take Xuzhou in one fell swoop, Li Zhong also sent troops.

However, he did not interfere in the war between Cao Cao and Tao Qian, but turned his head to the west and pointed straight at Liangzhou. He wanted to take this opportunity to take Liangzhou and then stabilize the rear safety, which was his ultimate goal.

"Lord, Mr. Xun Yu sent the news that the Hu prison was under martial law, and our detectives could not come back to report the news," an officer came to Cao Cao and said.

Cao Cao nodded and said, "Zhong De, Gongda, what do you think Li Zhongshi is playing?"

"Lord, no matter what Li Zhong is playing, I think our main task at present is to take Xuzhou in the shortest time. At that time, even if Li Zhong wants to interfere, he can only look at the ocean and sigh," Cheng Yu said solemnly.

Xun You nodded in agreement.

"Good"

Cao Cao stroked his palm and laughed, "Immediately ordered Cao Hong to lead 20,000 iron riders as the vanguard and march into Pengcheng."

"Yes"

Hedong Anyi, at this moment, this important town has also been under martial law, and the streets and alleys are full of troops in black armor patrolling.

"Sir, has the lord's order arrived?" a tall and burly man shouted at a man dressed as a Confucian.

"General Yan Liang doesn't have to worry. Presumably, the Lord's order will not arrive today and tomorrow." The man in Confucian clothes smiled faintly, and his elegant and polite appearance made people feel as refreshing as a warm spring breeze.

It turned out that the burly man was a general of the Youzhou Army and Yan Liang, the commander of the Sixth Army, and this elegant man was none other than anyone else. He was Zhou Yu and Zhou Gongjin, known as Jiangdong Mei Zhou Lang.

Why is he in Hedong?

It turned out that this was Li Zhong's order. He shook his shot and turned to Hedong. Li Zhong should gather the strength that can be gathered to sweep Liangzhou and stabilize the rear in the shortest time, so that he can use troops to others at ease in the future.

"Report, Lord's Order"

At this time, an officer ran to Zhou Yu and shouted.

Zhou Yu took it over and smiled and said, "The lord's order has arrived, General Yan Liang, inform all the generals to come here two hours later."

"Yes, sir," Yan Liang shouted excitedly, and trotted out of Zhou Yu's room.

Two hours passed in a flash, and Huang Zhong, Deng Zhan, Yan Liang, Xu Rong and other generals arrived.

"Generals, please sit down", Zhou Yu appeared in front of everyone in military uniform. Although his figure seems to be a little thin, no one can deny the appearance of thousands of girls. This is really a lively little white face.

"The lord ordered me to lead the Wuwan iron cavalry. The fifth, sixth and seventh and third legions can attack and destroy Liu Yu. I hope that all the generals can help me and serve as Lord and make more contributions for my Youzhou army." Zhou Yu said seriously, and his face was no longer as warm and approachable as before. With anger and majesty, he knew that if he wanted to defeat these proud soldiers and tough generals, they would probably not pay attention to him.

"Sir, don't worry, we must obey," everyone said in unison.

"Okay, with the help of your generals, our army is bound to win a complete victory," Zhou Yu said.

"General Burton, I order you to be the vanguard. The army will set out immediately from Xieliang to the north. Be sure to take the North County in the shortest time. I will lead the rest of the army to settle down, and then the army will meet in Wuwei," Zhou Yu said with a solemn expression.

Yes, sir, everyone said in unison.

"Okay, all the generals go down and prepare. The army will set off tonight," Zhou Yu said.

"Yes"

"Report, your excellency, the master sent two letters", an officer came to Zhou Yu and sent the letter to Zhou Yu.

A letter said: Zhou Gongjin's personal enlightenment!

Another letter reads: Ma Shou's marriage!

And the handwriting of the two is completely different, which is a little confusing.

......

"Lord"

"Well, how's it going?" Li Zhong looked at Xu Chu behind him in the barracks outside Chang'an City and asked with a smile.

Xu Chu nodded generously and said, "The letter has been sent. Oh, by the way, Deng Zhan and Wen Ping have left Luoyang, and it is estimated that they will be able to reach Yuzhou in four days, hehe."

"Order the commanders of the armies to come to me immediately?" Li Zhong said.

"Yes, Lord," Xu Chuying promised.

After a while, Le Jin, Han Hu, Chen arrived, Ju Yi and Jing Zhao Yin Du Ji also came here.

"This time, I concentrated 150,000 iron riders, 30,000 Modao Legion, the fifth, sixth, seventh, eleventh and twelfth armies, with a total of 430,000 troops. It is necessary to wipe out Liangzhou, destroy Dong Zhuo and Liu Yu, and prepare for my army to enter the Central Plains. I hope that all generals can unite sincerely and do not bear it. I hope," Li Zhong glanced at the people in the account and said slowly.

"Yes," everyone said in unison.

"Bhou (Du Jizi), this time I will take away all the troops in Chang'an. Chang'an will only leave some police troops. The burden on your shoulders is not light. In addition, Bohou needs more attention to worry about the heavy grain and fodder." Li Zhong looked at Du Ji.

Du Ji nodded and said solemnly, "Lord, don't worry, even if you try your best, you will complete the task."

"Well, I'm relieved," Li Zhong said with a smile.

"Okay, let's go back and prepare for it. The army will leave early tomorrow morning."

The next morning!

The 180,000 troops were headed west under the leadership of Li Zhong.

At the same time, Cao Cao's 150,000 army has arrived in Pengcheng. Before that, Cao Hong, the general under Cao Cao, fought with Zang Ba for more than 50 yuan, and it was never difficult.

"Lord, I didn't expect that there was such a great general in Xuzhou, so that the last general failed to take down Pengcheng and asked the Lord to be punished," Cao Hong held his fist at Cao with a ashamed face and whispered his head down.

Cao Cao shook his head and said, "It's not your fault. I didn't expect that Zang Ba was so brave that he could fight against Zilian for more than 50 yuan. I must subdue such a good general and use it for me."

Cao Cao said in an air.

"Order, tomorrow morning, the army will gather under Pengcheng City, and I would like to see who this Zang Ba is," Cao said with a heroic smile.

"Yes"

Dongdong!

The sound of low drums sounded outside Pengcheng, and the army of 150,000 Cao Cao was neatly and orderly arranged under Pengcheng. The army was as dense as the crucian carp that crossed the river, countless, and the black and suppressed, which made people feel a little depressed.

Da Da Da!

Under Cao Hong and Cao Ren's escort of several generals, Cao Cao slowly drove out of the battle and came to Pengcheng.

"I am Cao Cao, the herdsman of Yuzhou. I don't know which general is General Zang Ba Zang. Please come down and see me," Cao Cao shouted loudly to the city tower.

"hum"

Zang Ba saw it and curled his mouth, so he wanted to go down and meet Cao Cao.

"General is not allowed. Now Cao Cao is powerful, and there are countless generals under his command, and the general is the general of the main humerus. If the general has three advantages and two shortcomings, how can I wait with the main bus and how can I guard Pengcheng?" Zang Ba's deputy general hurriedly comforted.

Zang Ba shook his head and said, "If I don't go, it's okay, but I will be underestimated by Cao Cao, and our military morale will definitely be frustrated, which will be unfavorable to the subsequent war, so I have to go down, and"

"He Cao Cao may not be able to leave me," Zang Ba said, and he went down the tower alone.

Gree! Squeak!

When the gate opened, Zang Ba rushed out one by one, holding a sword and showing his majestic face. What a brave general.

"You are Cao Cao. Tell me, what's the matter with you?" Zang Ba came to more than a hundred steps opposite Cao Cao and shouted to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao smiled and said, "I heard that General Zang Ba is a hero among people. He is brave and extraordinary. When I see him today, he really lives up to his reputation."

Zang Ba frowned and said harshly, "Cao, do you really bully me in Xuzhou?"

"Ha ha, the general misunderstood. With the general's talent, how can a small Xuzhou accommodate the general and let the general show his ambition and fight on the battlefield? Why don't the general serve me and help me establish a great career? At that time, the general can also remain in history. I don't know what the general's intention is?" Cao said with a smile.

"Hahahaha"

Zang Ba laughed when he heard the words, and his eyes flashed with sarcastic light.

"What does this mean, General?" As soon as Cao saw it, his face became gloomy. As a person, he could talk to him in such a tone, which was simply a blessing he had cultivated in his last life, but he didn't expect that he was so ignorant of current affairs.

Zang Ba curled his lips and mocked, "Cao, Cao, Cao Cao, you are still a prince, but you can say such arrogant words. Although Zang Ba is not a big man, the loyal minister is not the two masters. I still know that the martyrs do not marry the second husband. Even if I want to leave Duke Tao, I will serve the great general Li. Under loyal command, you are just a defeated general under the general. How dare you say such arrogant words? It's really funny."

"B bastard"

"Kill"

When Cao Hong, who was hot-tempered, heard the words, he was angry from his heart and wanted to rush over.

"Okay, okay, okay"

Cao Cao's trembling fingers pointed to Zang Ba. His lips tremled, and his face was so gloomy that he could almost drip out of water. He was not angry but laughed. Three good words in a row can be said to be the anger in his heart.

"Order, Retired"

Taking a deep breath, Cao Cao glanced at Zang Ba, turned his horse's head, and said to Cao Ren, Cao Hong and others.

"Lord, the last general will kill this man"

Cao Hong shouted angrily.

"Retired", Cao Cao waved his hand and returned to this battle under Zang Ba's doubtful eyes.

Cao Hong and others stared at Zang Ba fiercely and retreated unwillingly.

The so-called Lord humiliated the minister to death, and they swore from the bottom of their hearts that they would kill this man one day to relieve their anger.

The fierce hundreds of thousands of troops retreated between these words, which made everyone confused.
