He had also heard of the prestige of Perak. On the swift yellow river, Cao Cao had the advantage with this thunderbolt car, and Yuan Shao didn't have any temper. Now with the help of the Thunderbolt, he believes that he will be able to conquer the walled city of Jiangling. By then, he will be able to stand firm in Cao Ying with this feat, and at the same time he will be able to completely get rid of the name of the black mountain thief.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yan couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Cao Hong couldn't help showing a smile on Zhang Yan's stern face.
'Cough, cough, cough' Yang Feng deliberately coughed twice.
When Zhang Yan received Yang Feng's prompt, her dark face couldn't help showing a trace of shame. He said with a slight embarrassment: "Brother Cao, please take Zhang Yan to thank the Prime Minister's Thunderbolt. Zhang Yan will definitely live up to the great expectations of the Prime Minister and will definitely present Guan Yu's head to the Prime Minister."
Cao Hong smiled and said: "It is so good, then Cao Hong is waiting for General Pingnan's victory in Xuchang."
The next day, early morning.
Twenty thunderbolt cars squeaked and squeaked towards the walled city of Jiangling.
"Look, what is that." A sharp-eyed soldier said suddenly.
Guan Yu, who was patrolling the city, squinted his eyes and looked at the place pointed by the soldier, and suddenly cried out in his heart. Guan Yu is familiar with "Spring and Autumn" and "Zuo Zhuan", and knows something about the catapult in the book. Although the shape of the Thunderbolt is similar to the common catapult, there is no slightest similarity. But he can still judge the usefulness of this thing from the structure of the Thunderbolt.
When the thunderbolt car came within the incident range, the boulder shot up like raindrops from the city. The thunderbolt designed by Liu Ye is extremely accurate, and the soldiers manipulating the sling are all Cao Ying soldiers wearing Montenegrin military uniforms. They are very familiar with the performance of Thunderbolt cars. It is no exaggeration to say that the Perak car hit rate in their hands is as high as 60%.
The huge boulders that came all over the sky became Guan Yujun's nightmare, and there were screams from the towers. A huge boulder flew towards Guan Yu, and the soldiers were shocked. It is true that the emperor is not in a hurry for the eunuchs, and the dignified martial sage Guan Yu would care about this stone of about 30 catties.
Guan Yu stared at the flying stone, awe-inspiring. Seeing the huge boulder approaching, Guan Yu's phoenix raised his eyebrows. He shouted wildly: "Broken", the Azure Dragon Yanyue Knife in his hand, like a soaring Azure Dragon swallowing the world with energy, rushed towards the huge stone.
With a'bang', Guan Yu split the boulder in half and went down to the city. "Oh," the Guan Yu army on the walled city, seeing the master's bravery, shouted enthusiastically.
Guan Yu's blow was undoubtedly a reassurance for the guards who had originally feared. The soldiers, who had been frightened by the power of the thunderbolt car, now had their eyes firm and their eyes full of fighting spirit. Guan Yu sensed the fighting spirit emanating from the soldiers who defended the city, and said: "General Zhao Pian, here is here for you to watch and guard, Guan Mou will take a team of men and horses to destroy the Black Mountain thief's'catapult'."
"Accomplished" Zhao Lei looked at Guan Yu in admiration, and said firmly and loudly.
Guan Yu walked down the city quickly and shouted: "The cavalry mounts, there are thief soldiers dozens of times as large as mine outside the city, and all the soldiers can dare to fight Guan."
The cavalry team held their sabers high and shouted in unison: "I would like to fight to the death with the general."
'Haha' Guan Yu laughed and said, "Open the gate and let these bandits know what an invincible teacher is." Guan Yu was not willing to fall behind with the red rabbit, and raised his feet high and said. There was a deafening hiss.
After the three-way drum rang, the gate of the Walled City of Jiangling City opened wide.
Guan Yu took the lead, carrying a thousand fine horses, each holding a torch, and directly killed the Black Mountain Army. He swung his broad sword, and soon turned over the people killed by the Black Mountain Army who had come to stop him. Guan Yu's main purpose this time is to destroy the Pili car, and immediately cover his soldiers and let them set the Pili car on fire.
Zhang Yan was shocked. He never expected that Guan Yu would rush out regardless of life and death, and that the group of soldiers he used to protect the Thunderbolt would be so vulnerable.
In a blink of an eye, twenty Perak cars ignited a raging fire one after another. Guan Yu's martial arts had already reached the point of listening to six ways at this time, with a vision of all directions. He saw that there were more and more soldiers around him, but he didn't hit them harshly. It was immediately understood that Zhang Yan wanted to take advantage of their return to the city, and grabbed the opportunity to grab Jiangling City.
How could Guan Yu make Zhang Yan do what he wanted, he shouted: "A big man will die if he dies. An can make the thief army do what he wants. All the soldiers are heroes. Come with me to get Zhang Yan's head." One thousand fine rides led by Guan Yu From left to right, rushing from left to right, coming and going like no one's land.
Where the Qinglong Yanyue Sword started, a large number of Black Mountain troops must fall. Guan Yu bravely opened the way first, with the Azure Dragon Sabre in his hands, as if with divine help. The four leaders of the Black Mountain Army saw his charge and gradually made a way out. This bloody road just led to the place where Zhang Yan was, and the four leaders couldn't help but feel anxious, shouting like thunder, and rushing straight.
Guan Yu immediately slapped the horse to greet him, Qinglong Yanyue knife swept away, and with a "slap", he shattered the shaft of a big knife in the hands of a leader, and followed with a stab in the chest. The other two leaders brought their guns together and pressed Guan Yu's knife handle. The last thousand-headed snake spear pierced his lower abdomen.
Guan Yu was not afraid of danger, and shouted loudly, like a thunderbolt in mid-air, raising his arms to win back. A move "Break Enemy Slash" cut the three of them in the middle.
Seeing that Guan Yu had killed four brave generals in an instant, all the Montenegrin troops were all afraid of retreating and gave him a way. In the distance, Zhang Yan saw Guan Yu's complexion crimson, red phoenix eyes, lying silkworm eyebrows, a magnificent appearance, not angry or prestigious, looking like a god, contempt for everything, making him feel irresistible.
Zhang Yan was shocked, and sighed: "'Ten Thousand Enemies' well-deserved reputation." At the moment, a thousand crossbowmen were mobilized to guard him to prevent accidents.
When Guan Yu saw that the Black Mountain Army was in chaos, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Guan Yu turned his horse's head quickly, and led the army towards the right. Guan Yu and the remaining five hundred spirits rode in Zhang Yan's army, killing everybody, no one can stop them.
At this time, Jiangling City rushed out of a cavalry squad consisting of two thousand people, and the leader was Zhang Ren. Ma Liang, who was watching the battle on the city wall, had already guessed Guan Yu's intentions, and specially sent Zhang Renling two thousand elite soldiers to respond. With Zhang Ren's response, Guan Yu returned to Jiangling City smoothly.
Zhang Yan lost his army and lost his generals. Seeing the low morale, Zhang Yan returned with gold.
……
The fifty thousand reinforcements led by Liu Xun ran non-stop to the southern county all the way. After several days of rushing, Liu Xun has reached Xiangyang City in Jingzhou.
As soon as he arrived in Xiangyang City, Liu Xun summoned everyone to discuss the military situation in the Xiangyang City Mansion Council Chamber.
After the generals and counselors were summoned by General Liu Xun, they all put aside their business and rushed to the chamber. After a while, all will gather.
Liu Xun glanced at everyone, and finally set his gaze on Zhao Yun, and asked: "Zilong, how have you gained in the past few days."
Zhao Yun confidently said: "It's okay. In these ten days, Yun followed the instructions of the military divisions and fought with the Black Mountain Army on the periphery. Because Jingzhou is a plain, it is very suitable for cavalry combat methods. In these ten days, Yun led the cavalry to fight dozens of times with the Montenegrin army, and the effect was excellent. The number of enemy casualties is unclear, but Evian estimates that the death toll of the Montenegro army is definitely not less than 5,000."
"Dozens of times," Liu Xun took a breath after hearing Zhao Zilong's answer. Dozens of battles were fought in ten days, with an average of one or two battles a day. Heard the news. Liu Xun began to sympathize with Zhang Yan. Although he didn't know how Zhang Yan survived these days, even with his toes, he guessed that Zhang Yan had never slept peacefully in these ten days.
He thought to himself for a while and continued to ask: "How about the casualties of our 10,000 cavalry?"
Zhao Yun said: "Only dozens of our cavalry were injured by arrows, eight were seriously injured, and no one died."
"It's a good one without casualties." Liu Xun laughed and praised: "Zilong is now more and more proficient in using cavalry tactics."
Seeing Liu Xun's actions, the generals were a bit inexplicable. How did they know that Liu Xun was not happy at all. He always thought that one of Cao Cao’s counsellors must have planned all this in Zhang Yanjun. As a result, from the news brought by Zhao Yun, Cao Cao’s counsellors were not in Zhang Yan’s army at all, otherwise Zhao Yun would never have won. smoothly.
Although Liu Xun was not afraid of Cao Cao's counselors, he was unwilling to fight against Cao Cao's counselors. After all, none of Cao Cao's five great strategists are vegetarian and not easy to mess with. Now that there is no threat from Cao Cao's counselor, Liu Xun no longer has to worry about Zhang Yan's ability and sabotage his plan.
Liu Xun said solemnly: "The people will listen to the order. You..."
"Yes," the generals said in unison.
Liu Xun smiled and said, "You hurry up and prepare."
"Yes"
After the crowd dispersed, Zhao Yun, who hadn't left, asked, "Yun has a puzzle, but he still wants the Lord's guidance?"
Liu Xun said lightly: "What Zilong is thinking about should be the food and grass in Jiangling City, right?"
Zhao Yun smiled'hehe', and said, "You can't hide anything from the lord. The thing that Yun confused is indeed this. Yun remembered that Jiangling City's grain and grass were not enough for ten days at the time, but now it has been fifteen days. Now. Why doesn’t the lord care about Jiangling City at all."
Liu Xun comforted: "Don't worry! The food in the Walled City of Jiangling is enough for them to eat for ten days. Don't forget, General Guan Yu still has 10,000 cavalry in his hands. The taste of horse meat is not worse than that of mutton."
Zhao Yun worried: "As a cavalry, horses are his best companions. If killing a horse to eat is a big blow to the soldiers, and the horses killed are all good horses outside the Great Wall, is the price too high? With the current strength of our army, it is not a difficult task to send grain and grass to the city with the strategy of'sounding the east and the west.' Why waste these good horses?"
Liu Xun did not answer Zhao Yun's question head-on, but instead asked the question, "Zilong, to be honest, which one of you and General Guan Yu is better? Do you think you are stronger or he is stronger?"
