My husband Zhuge Kongming

Chapter 140 138. Test each other

In fact, not only the barbarians were swallowing their saliva, but the Jingzhou soldiers... were also greedy.

In this era, soldiers will not starve to death, but they cannot let go of their stomachs to eat. In addition, they have traveled for several hours today, and the soldiers are already hungry.

In addition to the smell of meat, today's staple food is both rice and corn, mixed with the smell of meat, sweet and attractive.

Even Huang Yueying's stomach began to growl.

Well, she is also hungry, but she is not in a hurry.

Huang Wu and the others were not in a hurry. Although they were also hungry, they did not look forward to the food in the pot.

"Ah Chu's method, if it doesn't work?" Zhuge Liang asked with a smile.

Huang Yueying shook her head, with a surprised expression, "Ah Chu couldn't understand what elder brother said."

Zhuge Liang smiled lightly, "Tsk, do you want to pretend you don't know?"

"If it doesn't work today, it will continue tomorrow." Huang Yueying waved her hands indifferently, there will always be a meal, and it will work.

Zhuge Liang couldn't help laughing, so he nodded, yes, if the other party doesn't leave the city today, then have another meal tomorrow... If it's not enough, let's continue.

See if the other party is patient enough, or they are just more patient.

……

city ​​wall.

"Sir...do you want to fight?" Xiang Hongsheng also swallowed, smelling the faint smell of meat, followed by the smell of corn and white rice...

"You know, who is the leader of the Jingzhou army?" The scribe didn't answer, but asked Xiang Hongsheng a question.

Jingfu, the title of the barbarian leader.

"I don't know."

"It's the Kuai family, Kuai Yue, who just became Liu Biao's master book this year."

"Master?" Xiang Hongsheng was stunned for a moment, and then he was furious, "Is this an underestimation and I can't wait?"

"The Yue family of the Kuai family has different characters and is good at strategy. He was once appointed as Dongcao by the general He Jin, and later helped Liu Biao to establish Jingzhou with his brother..." the scribe replied.

"Ms. Kuai..." Xiang Hongsheng frowned, this is a giant in Jingzhou, they can't afford to provoke him, "Please teach me, sir."

"I thought that Liu Biao would be unable to look south." The scribe chuckled, "If that's the case, let me, Zhu Shao, take a look at the Jingzhou soldiers."

"Sir, do you want to fight?" Xiang Hongsheng was overjoyed.

Before Zhu Shao could answer, another tall barbarian came running up, yelling Xiang Hongsheng, roughly meaning, boss, everyone is hungry, and the Han people just happened to cook for us.

Xiang Hongsheng nodded, "Order soldiers! Eat!"

……

Huang Yueying watched the movement in the county town, and found that the other party had really opened the city gate. She was quite surprised, and then ordered Huang Wu and Zhang Gan to give them instructions.

The two nodded naturally.

As generals, they haven't eaten yet, and these guys are about to come out to grab it?
Then, Huang Yueying pulled Zhuge Liang back.

Kuai Yue at the side: ...I always feel neglected.

However, he also withdrew. As a scribe, he knew his position.

……

fight.

Thousands of barbarians rushed out of the county with shouts, raising a large amount of dust, and the momentum was huge.

But what was waiting for them was a dense rain of arrows, wave after wave, continuously.

Some barbarians fell, but those who didn't fell continued to charge forward.

Fighting against the Han people, facing such a rain of arrows, the barbarians have their own experience, and the distance between them is widened, but the speed of running under their feet is faster.

Someone was holding a thick wooden stick, someone was holding a mace, and they moved forward with strange screams.

"Array!" Huang Wu shouted.

The six hundred guards he brought surrounded him, surrounded by huge iron shields.

Zhang Qian also ordered two thousand elite soldiers to line up with shields and fight in front.

In less than a quarter of an hour, soldiers from both sides collided.

The shouts of killing were very loud.

……

Huang Yueying, Zhuge Liang and Kuai Yue were all in the rear, observing the situation on the battlefield.

Seeing the two streams of people rushing together, they fell silent.

War is a cruel thing, because people will bleed, get hurt, and even die.

It was the first time that Huang Yueying had seen the scene of the war between the two forces intuitively.

Before going to Jiangxia, she was alone as a bait, and basically arranged other people for the follow-up, so she had never seen a real bloody battlefield.

Someone fell.

Someone was hurt and yelling.

But more people are still hacking and killing.

The shield of a phalanx was torn off by the barbarians, and some iron shields were even deformed. Some barbarians broke into the formation, but what awaited him were spears thrusting from all directions.

Some phalanxes were scattered by the barbarians, and the Jingzhou soldiers fell into a disadvantage and were hacked... and maimed.

As the general in front of the formation, Zhang Qian did not panic, and ordered the soldiers on the left and right sides to surround the rear of the barbarians. After all, their strength was huge.

……

On the wall of the county seat.

When Xiang Hongsheng saw the change of Jingzhou soldiers, he was shocked and looked at Zhu Shao, "Sir..."

"Retreat." Zhu Shao said lightly.

He knew that there was a big difference in military strength, and it was difficult to defeat Jingzhou soldiers.

However, if he just defended the city, the opponent would have to knock down his front teeth.

As for why he agreed to fight this battle, of course it was just for experimentation, to find out the reality of the opponent.

As far as it is now, if the opponent wants to directly attack the city, they will not be able to defend it, unless...

"Xiang Jing Fu," Zhu Shao looked at Xiang Hongsheng, "now we have occupied half of Wuling County, if we can hold on, whether it is salt or food, we don't have to worry about it in the future."

"What sir said is true." Xiang Hongsheng agreed that if they just defended the city, they would still have some advantages.

"It's just that Jingfu has also seen it now, and the opponent has a lot of troops... It's not enough if only the few tribes that Jingfu has united with now." Zhu Shao continued.

In July and August of last year, Jiangdong's spying on Chu paper was leaked, and the whole world ridiculed Marquis Wu.

The elders of the clan went to apologize one after another, but Zhou Lang stopped them back, saying that the future Jiangdong hegemony cannot be separated from the Zhu clan.

The clansmen are extremely grateful.

In December of last year, Marquis Wu defeated Jiang Xia and was able to return to Jiangdong, but Zhou Lang visited Zhu Shi and said he would ask Zhu Shi for help.

As the contemporary representative of the Zhu family, Zhu Shao... was naturally pushed out.

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, starting from Jiangdong, he traveled all the way to the southwest, and finally arrived in Wuling County this year.

Relying on his own knowledge, he went into the mountains, lobbied the barbarians, and told them that the Eastern Han Dynasty was now in danger, and the imperial court didn't care about them at all, and there was no need to pay tax cloth.

However, the barbarians didn't believe it, because the Han people at the foot of the mountain would still collect from them. However, in the past half a year, the tax cloth collected by the Han people has increased a lot, which made many tribes dissatisfied.

Finally, Xiang Hongsheng was willing to give it a try.

So, they went down the mountain to plunder, and the county town at the bottom of the mountain... was vulnerable, and the soldiers inside were not their opponents at all. Then, the salt, grain, cloth, gold and silver were transported back to the mountain in piles, which angered the neighbors. The tribes were jealous and united.

Under Zhu Shao's suggestion, they can go down the mountain to occupy the county seat, occupy their fields, food, money and women.

With huge benefits, more and more tribes are participating, but...just some small tribes, the most powerful ones in the mountains, have not moved yet.

Therefore, he, Zhu Shao, wanted Prime Minister Hong Sheng to send someone to invite the leaders of those big tribes to come for reinforcements.

"What does sir want me to do?"

"Please Jingfu send someone to ask for help."

"To whom?"

"Chen family in Louzhong, Gao family in Lingyang, and Qin family in Lizhong. Thinking about it, Liu Biao has been going north for a long time, and the news should have passed." Zhu Shao sighed.

"If they come... I, Xiangshi..."

"Jing Fu, we can only compete with Liu Biao if we unite."

"Sir, what you said is true. Since this is the case, I will send someone to ask for help!"
