Three Kingdoms: The Yellow Turbans finally revolt
Chapter 433 The Battle of Yingchuan
June time passed by, and July came quietly.
During this period of time, Liu Qing was bored in his study almost all day long, and there were dozens of battle reports sent back from every state in the country every day.
Cao Cao's progress is the smoothest. After contributing to Qiao County, he has not received strong resistance. The main Pei country is now in a state of no owner, because Yuan Zhong, the prime minister of Pei country, is now eating in prison in Yecheng, waiting for Jiang Qi's soldiers and horses Arriving in Peiguo, Cao Cao had already occupied the five counties in the west of Peiguo, and Qiao County was also much more stable.
As for Chen Guo, according to the battle report, Wuping County has been successfully occupied, but when it attacked the next city, Ku County, it encountered particularly tenacious resistance.
"Lü Bu's advance was frustrated, and a strong attack is not advisable. Feng Xiao, can you pay attention?"
Liu Qing looked at the audience, Guo Jia, Xun Yu, and Tian Feng were all in the study.
"My lord, the country of Chen is open and there is no danger to defend it. Wuping County is the key to occupying this city. Kuxian County is optional. You can order Lu Bu to send an army to the south to make a feint attack, attract the soldiers from Kuxian County to help, and then take advantage of the situation. Intercept and kill, if this plan succeeds, Kuxian County will be destroyed!" Guo Jia made a move immediately.
"Okay, the king's horse will be delivered to Fengxian."
There were silk books in front of Liu Qing. Liu Qing took a clean one and threw the other one to Xun Yu while writing.
"Wen Ruo, take a look. This is the situation in Yingchuan. Chunyu Qiong has returned to Yingchuan. Gao Shun and Xu Huang have arrived at the city of Yangdi and are asking for instructions on whether to attack the city."
When Xun Yu heard this, he frowned slightly. Although when he decided to send troops, Xun Yu had already sent a secret letter to Yang Zhai's Xun's house, and asked Xun Jian to lead his people back to Yingyin County to avoid the limelight in the name of worshiping their ancestors. Starting from Chenliu, although the march was not fast, the distance was more than half shorter.
Gao Shun and Xu Huang have already approached the city, and it is not known whether the clan uncle has avoided it.
Xun Yu gritted his teeth and replied: "My lord, disregarding the risk of leaking the military information, allowed me to inform the family. It is the utmost kindness. Now that the army is on the verge, it is not appropriate to delay. Even if the Xun clan cannot evacuate, it will be fine. Forgive Yuan Shao, It will not be so frenzied."
"Wen Ruo is sure?" Liu Qing asked again.
"My lord, you must not throw a mouse-like weapon, disregard the lives of soldiers, and don't delay the fighter, please give me an order quickly, my lord!"
"Okay, then order Gao Shun and Xu Huang not to worry about it, and immediately attack the city!"
……
Yingchuan, Yangdi, Xunzhai.
Xun Jian was sick in bed. Since receiving Xun Yu's secret letter, Xun Jian also made some arrangements to send all Xun's family members and juniors to Yingyin, his hometown. The Xun family in the world must not be extinct.
Xun Jian was already old and planned to stay here with his remnants.
There was a sound of footsteps, and after an announcement, several figures appeared in front of Xun Jian.
"General, the Patriarch is really sick, why do you have to make trouble?" A servant of the Xun family tried to stop Chunyu Qiong as he retreated.
But Chunyu Qiong is big and rough, how can he stop him?
"Forget it, go down!" Xun Jian called softly.
Chunyu Qiong stepped forward, looked at Xun Jian, and saluted respectfully.
"Excuse me, Mr. Xun. Chunyu Qiong came here to ask for something important."
Xun Jian's muddy eyes couldn't see the person in front of him clearly, he just thought it was a big lump.
"General Chunyu was joking, if you have anything to say, feel free to speak up."
Chunyu Qiong twitched her lips, General Chunyu was called by his real identity, the last time he came back, he was still called Chunyu Xian nephew.
"When our army first arrived in Yangdi, we marched in a hurry and didn't bring enough food. We still asked Mr. Xun to give us some support."
Xun Jian sneered in his heart: Chunyu Qiong still has face, he followed Yuan's rebellion, and he has completely humiliated Yingchuan Chunyu's face.
"The general does not know that the Xun family's grain has always been used to pacify the Yellow Turbans, resist foreign enemies, and suppress rebellions. Except for a little ration, the barn has long been exhausted. Now that the autumn harvest is unknown, where can I lend the grain to the general?"
When Chunyuqiong heard this, he cursed the old man inwardly. All the soldiers under his command had found the Xun family's food, which was worth a lot.
Unexpectedly, Xun Jian didn't know what was good or bad.
Chunyu Qiong's complexion was not very good, and he said again: "Did Xun Gong stay in bed for a long time, did I remember wrongly? Over there in the south of the city..."
When Xun Jian heard this, he immediately scolded: "Well, you Chunyu Qiong, you Chunyu clan helped the rebellion, you are just a worm in the community, and you have to take the old life of the old man, right?"
Chunyuqiong didn't expect Xun Jian to be so tough, so he froze in place for a while.
"That's Xun's rations! There are thousands of people in my Xun family, don't we need to eat!"
Chunyu Qiong was still speechless.
Xun Jian scolded, coughed twice, and immediately said: "Even if there is enough food, I will not give it to you. You want to feed the rebellious Xun family with the grain of the Xun family. Well! Cough cough!"
Cursing, Xun Jian suddenly coughed heavily, his face flushed.
Chunyuqiong didn't expect Xun Jian to be like this. After being scolded for a few words, he became anxious and replied: "Where there is such a great reason for being a king and defeating an enemy! Isn't the great ancestor who defeated Qin in the past also a rebellious person!"
"Presumptuous, you young man, how dare you talk back when you say a few words!" Xun Jian cursed, coughing more violently, and finally even retched, the servant hurried forward to take care of him, and patted Xun Jian's back.
Chunyuqiong saw that Xun Jian didn't eat oil and salt, so he said coldly: "This food, you have to give it if you say it, or you have to give it if you don't!"
After saying that, he turned away and left, his armor rustling.
"You...you dare to stand up!" Xun Jian pointed at Chunyu Qiong's back with his finger, and put it down weakly.
"Master, take care of your body and don't get angry." The servant persuaded.
Xun Jian lay back on the bed, closed his eyes, let out a long sigh, and said, "I know my body."
The redness on Xun Jian's face gradually subsided, and he became paler and paler.
"Xiaochun, come here!" Xun Jian called out.
The servant leaned forward, Xun Jian lightly said, in the south of the city, the grain is no more than a dozen stones, and most of it is fodder for livestock, the place where the grain is stored, you know, when the army of Bohai King breaks the city, you go to find General Gaoshun , and gave him food.
The servant immediately burst into tears when he heard the words of what happened next.
"You cry so much!" Xun Jian scolded unconvincingly.
The servant hurriedly wiped away his tears, and looked at Xun Jian with tears in his eyes.
"Oh, I'm old, I'm afraid I won't be able to see the great king achieve great things..."
As he said that, Xun Jian's complexion suddenly turned blue, and a mouthful of dark red blood spurted out.
"Patriarch! Patriarch! Come!" The servant cried and called for someone.
Xun Jian's eyes were closed tightly, his breath gradually weakened, an old tear flowed down from his eyes, and he murmured.
"Your Majesty, you must rejuvenate the Han Dynasty..."
……
Outside Yangzhai City, at the Bohai Navy Camp, a flying cavalry came from afar.
"Urgent report from Yecheng! Urgent report from Yecheng! Urgent report from Yecheng!" Feiqi shouted rhythmically as he marched.
The Yuanmen soldiers immediately lifted the rejecting horses and let the flying cavalry drive straight in through the passage.
In the camp of the Chinese army, Gao Shun and Xu Huang were discussing the method of attacking the city.
"Yangdi is near Yingshui, and the official roads are connected in all directions. If you take Yangdi, you will get half of Yingchuan. Gongming, you see, this is my siege strategy." Gao Shun said and handed a sketch to Xu Huang.
"Pretend to attack the east of the city, but in fact the focus is on the west. Filial father, attacking the west from the east is a well-known strategy. Do you want to discuss it again?" Xu Huang said.
"Gongming doesn't know, although this Chunyu Qiong is a well-known general in the court, but he is really exaggerating. From his experience, although he knows how to attack the west, he may not believe that we use such a stupid method. "
Xu Huang tugged at his beard, "Are you predicting Chunyuqiong's prediction?"
"Haha, you can say that." Gao Shun laughed.
"Report——Emergency report from Ye City!"
A letter, the letter was quickly presented to the two of them.
Gao Shun unfolded it immediately, walked up to Xu Huang, and the two watched together.
"It's done! The lord has an order to attack the city! The Xun family in the city must be transferred." Gao Shun said.
"Then as a filial father, tomorrow you lead troops to feign an attack, and I will go to the west of the city first!" Xu Huang pointed to Jian Tu.
"Hey, that's not right! Look, Gongming, you led the army to feign an attack, and I'll lead the team up first!" Gao Shun pointed to the sketch map in the west of the city. The small soldier symbol on it, with a shield, was Gao Shun's camp.
"Okay, okay, I won't compete with you. If we say that we are the first to attack the city, our department is really not as good as falling into the camp, haha!"
"I hope that tomorrow the flag will be victorious, and the city will be defeated in the first battle, so we can meet Mr. Xun early." Gao Shun said, turning to face the door, "The military situation is urgent, let's start preparations now!"
……
The next day, the morning was cloudless and the sun was shining brightly.
At the head of Yangdi City, Yuan Jun's guards leaned lazily on the wall with a suitable temperature. The heat of the wall was just used to drive away the meaning of the morning.
Suddenly, several trumpets sounded in the distance, followed by drums.
The defenders at the top of the city immediately paid attention to it, and when they looked out, they really saw a group of soldiers and horses appearing in the distance.
"The enemy is attacking the city! The enemy is attacking the city! Call the gold warning!"
Soon, the soldiers and horses in the city were alarmed, and groups of Yuan Jun rushed to the top of the city, and many of them carried logs and stationed behind the city gate.
Chunyu Qiong was also awakened from sleep, and rushed to the top of the city after a while.
Looking outside the city, the King's Army of Bohai was gradually approaching. Chunyu Qiong counted the number of people, and there were probably 5000 cavalry and 1 infantry, or so.
In fact, Chunyu Qiong saw it very accurately. Xu Huang's subordinates only had [-] cavalry, of which [-] were Tiefutu, and the [-] infantry were Zhang Miao's Chen Liujun.
As for Gao Shun's camp of three thousand traps, of course he was going to go.
The distance is only a few miles, if you go, it will only take a while, but it took more than half an hour for the army to arrive at the city and change the formation.
Even Chunyu Qiong on the top of the wall, his legs were sore from standing, so he found a place to sit on the top of the wall.
"If you have any news, please let me know at any time!" Chunyu Qiong said angrily. He was in a very bad mood. Yesterday he searched Xun's granary in the south of the city, and found that there were only tens of thousands of shi of grain in it, and the rest was fodder, and he didn't bring it with him. What kind of cavalry, what is the use of fodder, soldiers don't eat this stuff.
"General, they stopped and did nothing."
Chunyu Qiong stared at the sky, blinded by the sun, and after an hour of rising, the sun was already scorching hot.
As soon as the hour came, there were bursts of shouts outside the city, Chunyu Qiong was startled, and immediately got up to check.I saw that the Bohai King's Army finally separated out a group of small teams holding boarding ladders, and rushed towards the top of the city.
Someone inside was carrying a ladder, someone was holding a shield in front, and there were crossbowmen behind.
"Come on! I shoot back the bow and arrow!"
As soon as Chunyuqiong finished speaking, several arrows flew towards him. Chunyuqiong woke up suddenly, and under the scorching sun, his whole body shivered suddenly.
With the support of the arrows, the ladders began to climb to the top of the city, but soon some were pushed apart by the brackets.
"Stones, logs, smash them for me! Li Sima, I'm here, go and see quickly, there may be enemies in the other three gates!" Chunyuqiong ordered.
"Here!"
Sima went down to the city and rode away.
Looking at the top of the city, Xu Huang looked more than enough to deal with the ladder, so Xu Huang waved his hand immediately.
Ten heavy crossbows were immediately launched from the Chinese army. These heavy crossbows were specially built to use the iron arrows captured by Yuan Jun. Although the power was not as powerful as Yuan Shao's iron heavy crossbows, they were much more lethal than ordinary weapons. .
As soon as the heavy crossbow was launched, a round of cavalry shots was fired, and ten iron arrows flew towards the top of the city, but the force was different, only three of them hit the top of the city, and one of them was shot empty; there were three, and they flew straight It skimmed over the city wall and shot into the city, while the other four directly hit the top of the city and flew back.
"Be careful with heavy crossbows!"
"Be careful with the heavy crossbow!" There were shouts from the top of the city.
After adjusting the strength, the second round of shooting was quite accurate. Five shots hit the top of the wall, and one of them pierced through the three people, nailing it to the top of the wall.
There was a riot at the top of the city, and the soldiers who opposed the first climb had to take care of the heavy crossbow at all times. For Chen Liujun who rose up and climbed first, there were many loopholes to take advantage of. Soon, some brave men succeeded in climbing the city first. head.
However, his success was very short-lived.
Yuan Jun rushed forward and stabbed him to death.
Of course, this was an extremely inspiring scene. Xu Huang's army suddenly burst into shouts, drums rumbled, and trumpets were played melodiously and long, encouraging the charging soldiers.
"Shh!"
Another round of heavy crossbow volleys was fired, seven of ten shots hit, and dozens of people were killed or injured immediately.
Chunyu Qiong shrank sharply and hid behind the parapet, only to hear a loud "clang" behind him, and the iron arrow in his direction collapsed fiercely into the crack of the city wall.
If the shot misses a bit, I'm afraid he will be taken away.
Chunyuqiong let out a foul breath, and cursed secretly: "When did the King of Bohai come up with such a killer weapon!"
Chen Liu was able to build a heavy crossbow so quickly, of course it was Shiyi Workshop who provided technical support.
This killer has a long range, strong damage, and is easy to carry. Although it is not as effective as Jinglan when attacking the city, it poses a great threat to the defenders at the top of the city.
At least because of this, the climbers can climb to the top of the city more quickly.
Looking at the occupation, Xu Huang never expected that a moment after the start of the battle, there would be a fierce man who succeeded in ascending directly first, Xu Huang couldn't help but waver the idea of feint attack.
Look at Yuan Jun's weak posture, he can attack by force.
Xu Huang looked at the shadow of the sun, it was almost time, and Gao Shun's trapped camp should start to attack the city.
"The Sima on the left listens to the order, immediately lead the army to join the front, and go to the top of the city first!" Xu Huang ordered.
On the top of the city, people jumped up intermittently. Chunyu Qiong personally swung his sword and stabbed them, killing several people. When he glanced down the city, he saw another soldier and horse attacking him, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.
At this time, Li Sima, who was sent out, returned in a hurry.
"General, general!" Li Sima said with a flustered expression.
"General, the west of the city is under attack! Call for reinforcements!"

At least because of this, the climbers can climb to the top of the city more quickly.
Looking at the occupation, Xu Huang never expected that a moment after the start of the battle, there would be a fierce man who succeeded in ascending directly first, Xu Huang couldn't help but waver the idea of feint attack.
Look at Yuan Jun's weak posture, he can attack by force.
Xu Huang looked at the shadow of the sun, it was almost time, and Gao Shun's trapped camp should start to attack the city.
"The Sima on the left listens to the order, immediately lead the army to join the front, and go to the top of the city first!" Xu Huang ordered.
On the top of the city, people jumped up intermittently. Chunyu Qiong personally swung his sword and stabbed them, killing several people. When he glanced down the city, he saw another soldier and horse attacking him, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.
At this time, Li Sima, who was sent out, returned in a hurry.
"General, general!" Li Sima said with a flustered expression.
"General, the west of the city is under attack! Call for reinforcements!"
