The Three Kingdoms of the Lu family

() Lu Yi looked at the people who came, and saw that he was not young enough, and the corners of his lips were still fuzzy, but his eyes were extremely energetic, with a faint hint of fierceness, and he was slightly surprised.

But before Lu Yi could speak, Yang Ren exclaimed behind him: "Third brother, you are not at home, why did you come here?"

"Why, this is from your Yang family?"

Now it was Lu Yi's turn to be surprised. After Yang Ren explained, he realized that the person in front of him was named Yang Ang, and he was Yang Ren's clan brother.Just now, Ruoguan was originally practicing martial arts at home, but for some reason, he went to Yangping Pass and joined Gao Shun's subordinates.

Yang Ang was a little excited. Seeing Lu Yi, he turned over and kowtowed, and said loudly: "The last general Yang Ang, pay homage to the lord!"

"My lord, this young general Yang is very skilled in martial arts. He always advances in every battle and is extremely brave!" Gao Shun also said a few good words for Yang Ang. Obviously, Yang Ang's performance at Yangping Pass made Gao Shun very satisfied. .

Lu Yi laughed immediately, Gao Shun is a rigorous person, if Yang Ang didn't have any skills, how could Gao Shun recommend him.After seeing Yang Ang, he hurried forward and helped Yang Ang with both hands.He smiled and said: "Okay, it's rare to have another good general in our army, so you can just be Lieutenant General Gao Shun and learn more!"

"The final general will live up to my lord's expectations!" Yang Ang was also quite happy, as soon as he joined the Bingzhou Army, he became a deputy general, which was already a step up to the sky.

With the addition of a new general, Lu Yi had to order everyone to arrange a banquet to celebrate. During the banquet, Lu Yi also understood why Yang Ang was here.

But when the war in Hanzhong was tense, Yuan Fei ordered Ji Ling to come forward and called on the Hanzhong family to contribute to defend Hanzhong. Yang Ren and Yang Bai were both serving in the army, so the Yang family was naturally the first to respond and sent hundreds of private soldiers Come to support Yangping Pass.

Yang Ang sneaked into it secretly, and Gao Shun paid attention to his heroic performance in resisting the siege of the Guanzhong Allied Forces.

Hearing Yang Ang's narration, Lu Yi was even more happy. Although Hanzhong was surrounded by powerful enemies, he finally had some aristocratic families in Hanzhong who supported him.

This is undoubtedly a very good start.Lu Yi, who was in a good mood, personally poured a bowl of wine for Gao Shun and Yang Ang, and then began to eat and drink happily.The atmosphere during the banquet was extremely lively. ,

.....................

The atmosphere in Yangping Pass is warm.The morale of the soldiers was high, but within the Guanzhong Allied Forces, there was a gloomy cloud and panic.Lu Yi's army came to support him, and he didn't intend to hide it at all. The generals in Guanzhong knew about it not long ago, and gathered in Han Sui's tent to discuss countermeasures.

"What are you waiting for? Lu Thief is right in front of you now. Generals, as long as we work hard, we will be able to break through Yangping Pass and take down Hanzhong!"

Knowing Lu Yi's arrival, Zhang Wei was the most excited. His beard was thick and covered almost half of his face. He looked downcast and savage, and his eyes were full of deep-seated hatred.

Behind Zhang Wei, a group of Wudoumi Cultists standing there were also excited, wishing they could attack Yangping Pass immediately.

But it's not him who makes the decisions here!

Although Zhang Wei occupied Wudu, most of them were Di people. Although Zhang Lu's loyalists also came to vote, the number of people was only 2000, and the force could only rank at the bottom.

Matang and Han Sui hadn't spoken yet, but Zhang Wei was the first to yell. This immediately made many generals in Guanzhong very upset, and they gave Zhang Wei a unanimous glance.

Zhang Wei was so scared that he didn't dare to say any more, he could only hold back his anger, and found an excuse to leave the army tent.

Seeing Zhang Wei leaving, Ma Teng looked gloomy, looked at Han Sui and said, "Wenyue, Yangping Pass is dangerous, and Liu Zhang's fellow retreated early. I think we might as well withdraw our troops!"

Ma Teng's forces were concentrated in the Anding area of ​​Wuwei. The reason why he attacked Yangping Pass was firstly Liu Zhang's promise, and secondly, he was afraid that Han Sui would break Hanzhong and gradually become stronger, breaking the balance among the generals in Guanzhong.

At this time, Liu Zhang had already retreated, and the promised rations were in vain. Naturally, Ma Teng would not do anything that was not beneficial.

"That's right, General Ma is right. Now that Liu Zhang has retreated, if we continue to fight, it will only increase casualties!" Ma Teng's words won the approval of several generals in Guanzhong.

Most of the generals in Guanzhong didn't speak, they just looked at Han Sui, obviously wanting to follow Han Sui's lead, Ma Teng's face couldn't help but darken even more,

Han Sui, however, was quite elegant and tolerant, and turned a blind eye to Ma Teng's gloomy face. He just looked at the many generals around him and said in a deep voice: "Generals, we came here with a large army. How much rations were consumed and how much was thrown away?" How many brothers' lives have been lost, and now we retreat back in such a despondent way, wouldn't it make the world laugh at us?"

"That's right, it's not our style to return empty-handed. In my opinion, we might as well send someone to threaten Na Lu Yi. He occupies such a large piece of fat in Hanzhong, so he should give us some benefits anyway." !" A middle-aged general with a white face stood up,

This person is Zhang Heng, who occupies Nan'an and is closest to Han Sui.

Seeing Zhang Heng open his mouth, the eyes of the other generals lit up, thinking that this idea was good, even Ma Teng was very moved.

Cheng Gongying's face showed a worried look, not as optimistic as these generals, hesitatingly said: "The Bingzhou army is strong in the world, so it may not agree to this condition!"

"If you don't agree, and he agrees to fight, I don't believe it. With [-] troops, Lu Yi dares to fight us and Liu Zhang at the same time!"

With a sound of bumping, Ma Chao slammed his fist on the table case. Although it was only a light punch, the hardwood table case was torn apart and sawdust flying.

All the generals in Guanzhong who were sitting were startled and looked at each other in blank dismay, but they didn't dare to answer, obviously they were extremely afraid of Ma Chao.

Only beside Han Sui was a burly man with a stern look in his eyes. He was not afraid of Ma Chao at all, and sneered, "General Ma has to believe it if you don't believe it! In the past ten days, isn't Lu Yi fighting against both sides at the same time?" ?”

"Yan, what do you mean!" Seeing someone who dared to taunt Ma Chao in person, behind Ma Teng, a cold light flashed in the eyes of the handsome general.

Seeing this, Ma Teng and Han Sui snorted coldly at the same time, and shouted Yan Xing and Qingxiu young general away.

Han Sui narrowed his eyes slightly, and glanced at Ma Chao indiscriminately, but with a gentle smile on his face, he said in a deep voice: "Nowadays the world is raging and fighting endlessly. We, the generals, should unite as one and be united to the outside world. , why hurt each other's peace because of the past grievances! This old man thinks that nephew Ma Xian's proposal, we might as well give it a try!"

"General Han is right, since we got up, how can we go back empty-handed, we must let Lu Yi bleed!" With Han Sui taking the lead, many people in the room echoed, and they were obviously greedy of prosperity.

There are even more people who are jealous of Lu Yi's occupation of Hanzhong, and they want to carve up the land in Hanzhong.

But not everyone is in agreement. Although there are more than a dozen generals in Guanzhong, there are many soldiers and horses. Some people are worried that their soldiers and horses will lose too much and will be annexed by others. They immediately opposed it and said together. : "We have already lost thousands of people. If we continue to fight, the elite soldiers will be wiped out!"

When Han Sui heard the words, he burst out laughing, and then there was a hint of yin and prey in his eyes.He said coldly: "Don't worry about the soldiers, we can't send troops, let the Di people and Zhang Wei take the lead, just to weaken them, so as not to break through Hanzhong, we have to share them!"

"That's right, our soldiers can't afford to die, how many of those Di people die, it has nothing to do with us!"

The hearts of all the generals in Guanzhong became hot, and they kept agreeing to do what Ma Chao and Han Sui said. Ma Teng even personally sent someone to invite King Di and Zhang Wei into the army tent, and immediately detained King Di of Zhang Wei. , Forced the two to gather troops and prepare to attack Yangping Pass.

The rest of the Guanzhong generals also summoned their troops and horses, walked out of the barracks, and once again moved towards Yangping Pass. There was a total of [-] troops, plus more than [-] leading Di people and Zhang Wei's subordinates.

Almost all the valleys outside the pass were covered, and at a glance, the soldiers seemed endless, which made the Bingzhou army, which had fought many battles, gasp.

On this day, Lu Yi happened to be closing the Yangping Pass. When he saw the Guanzhong coalition forces dispatched, he immediately ordered someone to ring the golden bell, and then commanded a group of soldiers to defend the pass.

Fifty thunderbolt chariots have been loaded with stone bombs, and groups of soldiers are adjusting their positions to facilitate the attack on the enemy's siege equipment.

Afterwards, Lu Yi urgently withdrew the strength of Guanzhong's arms, and distributed the newly made [-] strong crossbows to the [-] soldiers with the best accuracy. Get ready for a big fight.

After the crossbowmen, there were groups of archers. Someone had already brought up the brazier in advance, and the bows and arrows were wrapped in oilcloth, ready to launch rockets at any time.

Lu Yi personally led Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, Gan Ning and others to stand in the front row, watching every move outside the city.

But to his surprise, when the Guanzhong Allied Forces advanced to a distance of [-] steps from the pass, they all stopped and stopped moving.

On the contrary, groups of Di people, uttering strange yells, were driven by the coalition forces, carrying ladders, pushing wells, and slowly approaching the pass.

In the front, there is another messenger, with his hands raised high, riding a white horse, running towards the pass.

"My lord, do you want to shoot him?" Gan Ning stared fiercely at the messenger, eager to try.

Lu Yi smiled, raised his hand to press Gan Ning's bow and arrow, shook his head and said, "Listen to what he said!"

"Listen, people above!" The envoy rushed to the pass, raised his head, and shouted as loudly as possible: "Our Guanzhong coalition army does not want to be an enemy of the Bingzhou army. If you can offer enough rations and armor, Gold and silver, we can retreat, if not, we will definitely do our best to break through this barrier!"

After finishing speaking, the envoy didn't wait for Lu Yi to speak, turned his horse's head, and flew back to the main formation.

But this person's words have completely angered Lu Yi.Someone dared to threaten him, Ma Teng and Han Sui really regarded himself as a fat sheep!

"Xingba!"

Lu Yi roared.Gan Ning was angry, and shot out a sharp arrow in his hand, piercing the back of the fleeing messenger. The man screamed and fell off his horse, only the frightened horse ran back to the main formation.

Ma Teng and Han Sui were furious, and Ma Chao's eyes became even colder. He pulled Di Wang Dou Mao and shouted, "Order your men to attack quickly, and attack Yangping Pass at any cost!"

"Yes, yes, I'll go!" Di Wang Dou Mao, who is also considered to be the number one warrior of the Di people, was dragged to his side like a chicken by Ma Chao. He vented his anger to Yangpingguan and ordered his soldiers to attack.

On the other side, Zhang Wei also had an extremely ugly face. Under Yan Xing's persecution, 1000 people were separated, pushing the well rail, and attacked Yangping Pass.

Inside and outside the valley, there was a loud shout of killing.Thousands of people, carrying ladders, launched the first wave of attacks.This is also because the terrain outside Yangping Pass is too narrow to accommodate too many people attacking at the same time.

Even so, when these Di people came over aggressively, there was still an overwhelming momentum, Gao Shun's expression became completely indifferent, looked at Lu Yi, and asked, "My lord?"

"Uncle Gao commands the defense of the city!"

Lu Yi waved his hand. Although he came to support Yangping Pass, he didn't mean to intervene, not to mention Gao Shun's experience in many battles.He didn't want to interfere.

Just from cultivating the combat capabilities of his generals, he will also decentralize power appropriately.

With Lu Yi's affirmation, Gao Shun immediately bowed to Lu Yi and retreated, and then led his soldiers to attack the attacking enemy army.The Thunderbolt car was still the first to show off.

Pieces of flying stones were thrown out, and more than a hundred archers screamed and were crushed to death on the nearest well rail.

There were also some Di people who fell into it, and countless people were smashed and their brains burst.But these thunderbolt cars did not make the Di people retreat, but became even more crazy.

After several fights, the people of Di knew that the Perak Chariot could only hit distant targets, and when they rushed to the city, they would be safe.

But is it really like that?

When a group of Di people risked their lives to break through the coverage of the thunderbolt chariot and rushed to the bottom of the city, two thousand and five hundred crossbowmen immediately released the crossbow arrows in their hands.

In an instant, the city was shot down like a rain of arrows and waterfalls. It was just a round of attack, which claimed hundreds of lives. The most terrifying thing was that the area below the city was surrounded by high mountains on both sides, and there was only a straight road in the middle.Thousands of people crowded there, completely becoming a live target for the crossbowmen, and the puffy arrows rained down mercilessly, wantonly harvesting the lives of the Di people!

It took only half an hour to siege the city, and one-third of the thousands of Di people died in the battle, but they didn't even climb the city wall!

On the ground, there were densely packed corpses, layer upon layer, and the dark red blood flowed into a stream. Many people stepped on it and slid to the ground with a plop.

However, the crossbows and arrows at Yangping Pass were endless, and they were still shot down like a tide. As the enemy army approached, the bows and arrows also began to show their power, shooting to death the enemy soldiers who were close to the city wall.

The Di people finally couldn't stand it anymore. Although they were barbaric, they were not stupid, and they were not good at attacking cities. Under such a terrifying arrow rain, they had no body protection at all, and they were not much stronger than the straw man.

Many people couldn't bear the pressure, turned around and ran away, wanting to escape back and save their lives.For these people, the Guanzhong Allied Forces showed no mercy.

A group of carefully selected supervisors stood behind, and all the soldiers who escaped were beheaded one after another.This made King Di's heart bleed, these are all his clansmen!

But Han Sui's words undoubtedly made King Di's heart sink to the bottom.

"Your Majesty, continue to send troops! This time, all the Di people will be dispatched!" Han Sui looked at Dou Mao indifferently, and said coldly.

"General Han, please, give my people a way to survive!" Seeing that Han Sui wanted him to send troops, King Di couldn't help crying bitterly, and even knelt down for Han Sui.

Han Sui sneered when he heard the words, looked at Dou Mao and said, "Your clansmen still have hope of survival if you capture Yangping Pass. If you don't attack, I will destroy you now! You can choose between two paths!"

Di Wang's heart suddenly turned cold, and he felt extremely regretful. He felt that letting the Guanzhong Allied Forces enter Wudu was really a way to lure wolves into the house, but now there is no room for him to regret it.

Han Sui gave the military order, and the nearby generals in Guanzhong all looked at him with murderous eyes. In desperation, King Di had no choice but to send all the Di people out.

Even in order to boost morale, King Di went to the battlefield in person. Not only King Di, but also Zhang Wei was forced to rush to Yangping Pass with the last hundreds of soldiers.

The entire ten thousand enemy troops, under the threat of the Guanzhong coalition forces, were determined to die, and launched wave after wave of charges towards Yangping Pass desperately.

On the top of the city, the Bingzhou Army immediately felt the pressure, and the dense rain of arrows could not stop the fearless Di people, and a ladder was already erected on the top of the city!

"These Di people are crazy!"

Seeing more than [-] Di people attacking Yangping Pass desperately, even Lu Yi's heart was like a stone, and at this time he was slightly moved, and his brows were slightly solemn...
