Hee Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 291

A few days later, Liyang, a heavily guarded city by the side of the Yellow River, has become a huge military camp. The original 15 troops, plus the [-] vanguard troops brought by Yan Liang, now have [-] troops stationed here Inside and outside the city, the huge number is shocking. Many people in the city were temporarily evacuated to other places, and the shouts of officers echoed everywhere.

In a side hall in the Liyang Prefect's Mansion, Zhang Yun said to Gao Lan with an apology, "Jing Zhi, this time it's because of a certain reason that you were wronged by General Yan Liang."

Zhang He offended Yan Liang, and under Tian Feng's protection, he was relegated to Liyang, and temporarily placed under Gao Lan. Yan Liang sent letters to Gao Lan several times, asking him to clean up Zhang He who disrespected him as the number one general in the north. , but Gao Lan and Zhang Yun are not only good friends, they have always called themselves younger brothers, so naturally they would not listen, so Yan Liang also hated him. He led the army into the city, and immediately occupied the main hall. After announcing a two-day rest, he immediately crossed the river and attacked the white horse.

"Brother Zhang He, why are you being polite to me? If it wasn't for your continuous support and teaching back then, Lan wouldn't be where he is today. Don't worry, Lan didn't take some sarcastic remarks to heart at all." Gao Lan said with a smile .

"Thank you very much." After Zhang Xi was grateful, he said with some concern, "But I'm afraid that General Yan Liang will come to make trouble after this battle."

"It seems that General Zhang still has doubts!" ​​Pang Tong walked in slowly, followed by Cheng Erhu.

"Greetings to Zhizhong" Gao Lan and Zhang He immediately saluted with respect, and both of them wanted to serve Yuan Xi. Therefore, although they were obviously higher than Pang Tong in official positions, in Yuan Xi's power pyramid, Pang Tong was indeed much higher.

"General Zhang, although you have voted for Lord Hou, I know that you still think that Yuan Gong has 51 soldiers, and he will not be defeated. Let's do it! Tong Tong will make a bet with you. Once General Yan Liang crosses the Yellow River this time, he will definitely fail. Believe it or not?" Pang Tong smiled, since Yuan Shao didn't seize the perfect opportunity of Cao Cao's attack on Liu Bei, Pang Tong had already decided that Yuan Shao would be defeated, so indecisive, he was a lord without distinction How to win.

Zhang Yun was startled and reminded: "Zhizhong, although Yan Liang is arrogant, his own martial arts are really extraordinary."

"Haha, Bufan can still surpass Marquis Wen back then," Pang Tong laughed.

"It's more than that." Xu Shu also walked in slowly from outside.

"Meet the General Staff" Gao Lan, Zhang He saluted again.

"The two generals don't need to be too polite. Just now, I went to see the mighty army of [-]. General Yan Liang is really capable of training soldiers so undisciplined. I just came here for a day and found out that the robbery The matter of people's wealth, such soldiers, when they win, are indeed like tigers, unstoppable, because they are greedy for merit, but once they fail, they are like reptiles on the ground, and they will collapse in an instant, because their fear of military discipline has disappeared There is nothing left, and with General Yan Liang's own arrogance, it is impossible for him to defeat Cao Cao," Xu Shu said disdainfully.

"What the two adults said is very true." Hearing this, a trace of excitement flashed in Gao Lan's eyes. If this was the case, they would be relieved.

Although Zhang Yun still had doubts, he still clasped his fists respectfully and said, "Thank you two adults for clarifying the confusion, please rest assured, Lord Hou has saved Yun's life, and He will definitely obey orders."

Pang Tong smiled, knowing that Zhang Yun was not as good as Gao Lan in entrusting everything to Lord Hou, but there was no need to worry about this, and he said with a smile: "Okay, the two generals will do everything as usual, just keep your troops in check. Offend Yan Liang at this time and let him consume part of Cao Cao's troops first."

"promise!"

Xu Shu then said: "We must also be prepared to accept the defeated soldiers at any time. Once Yan Liang fails, the defeated soldiers will inevitably flee back to Liyang. Remember, they must not be integrated with our 5 army. Ruined a pot of soup, not to mention [-] people, if they join now, not only will they not be able to increase combat effectiveness, but will harm our army.”

"promise!"

At noon the next day, in Liyang Prefect's Mansion, Yan Liang summoned all the generals, and said in a loud voice, "I just received the news that Cao Cao led an army of [-] troops and was about to cross the river from Yanjin to attack the rear of our army. My lord asked me to take them immediately." The soldiers crossed the river and attacked the white horse, and led the army to stop Cao's army."

Hearing this, one of the generals immediately stood up and said with disdain: "Cao Cao has few troops, so he can only come up with such a strange strategy, and the general is invincible and famous all over the world. How dare he go to war with the general, so he can only try to rely on the white horse For the time being, hold on to the city.”

"General, I can't delay, I should go south immediately"

"Yes! Take the white horse in one fell swoop, and then go straight to Xudu"

"The lord has hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands, and Cao Cao's tens of thousands of people can't make waves at all."

The other generals also supported it, all with strong confidence on their faces. With their northern troops, eliminating Cao Cao is not the same as playing. This time they came out to gain military merit.

Seeing this scene, Zhang He frowned and stood up suddenly. Gao Lan sighed suddenly, his elder brother still had a lot of affection for Yuan Shao.

"General, Cao Cao didn't even fear Lu Bu, the number one general in the world, so how could he be so afraid of the vanguard army? The general must be careful when attacking the white horse this time, in case he makes a surprise attack," Zhang He said concerned.

"Presumptuous" Yan Liang suddenly became angry, his eyes contained murderous intent and said: "You mean that a certain is not as good as that Lu Bu, he has such a great reputation, and he is completely incompetent in the Central Plains. How can he occupy the position of the number one general in the world?"

Zhang Yun's eyes were fixed, and when he opened his mouth to say something, Gao Lan was already standing in front of him, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "The general is invincible, he must be invincible, and Lan doesn't believe that Lu Bu is really so powerful. The generals have never shown it in the Central Plains, that’s why the so-called prestige was created, Brother Zhang He is too cautious, I hope the general will not blame him.”

Yan Liang snorted coldly. After all, Gao Lan is the prefect of Liyang, and he still has [-] troops under him. What's more, he seems to have a good relationship with Tian Feng. "Zhang He, for Jingzhi's sake, let's forget it this time, but I will let you know why I am the number one general in the north. You stay in Liyang and wait for the good news of this general."

"The general is invincible and unstoppable," Gao Lan complimented again.

"The general is invincible!" The other generals also shouted.

Seeing this scene, Yan Liang burst out laughing, Zhang He sighed and shook his head, shutting up and not speaking anymore.

At night, Pang Tong and Xu Shu were in a room, carefully looking at a map. Not long after, Gao Lan walked in slowly.

"General Zhang, are you okay!" Pang Tong asked with concern.

"Don't worry about Zhizhong, although he was scolded, it also made Brother Zhang Yun a lot clearer," Gao Lan said.

Xu Shu smiled and appreciated it very much: "General Zhang is not only good at fighting, but also has a loyal heart. He clearly knows that Yan Liang will not listen to him, but he still speaks out his thoughts. This kind of courage And morality, it's invaluable."

After Gao Lan nodded, he asked curiously, "My lords, what do you think? Is Cao Cao really going to attack the rear of our army and go straight to Yecheng?"

"Haha, how could Cao Cao do such a stupid thing? Once he enters, as long as Yuan Gong blocks Yanjin, Cao Cao's tens of thousands of troops will be completely blocked in the north. When General Yan Liang was negligent, he quickly turned back from Yanjin to support the white horse." Pang Tong shook his head and laughed.

"But he doesn't have enough troops," Gao Lan wondered.

"This battle is an odd word. If General Yan Liang is prepared, it's fine, but if he is not prepared, it will be dangerous. However, Yuan Gong's problem is the biggest. There is no need for him to stop him personally, and send a little way." The army can, or even ignore, and lure Cao Cao to cross the river directly. Whether it is Jizhou or Hou Ye's Youzhou, it cannot be shaken by tens of thousands of people," Xu Shu said shaking his head.

"Duke Yuan is afraid that Ye City will lose, and he is reluctant to part with the ridiculous capital. In this first battle, Duke Yuan will lose, and it depends on the extent of the defeat." Pang Tong patted the map lightly, and said with affirmation.

In the early morning of the next day, outside Liyang City, Yan Liang rode on a big horse, waved a big knife in his hand, and shouted: "The whole army set out!"

"promise!"

The huge army of [-] immediately prepared to cross the Yellow River and attack the white horse on the opposite side.
