Chapter 140 Jiangdong Tigers
The night was deep, and the moon looked very cloudy, with only half of its face exposed, with a reddish halo.

Not being able to see the stars made the waning moon seem very lonely, hanging weakly in the darkness, not even bothering to open her eyes.

The pitch-black Rang Mountain looks like a sleeping beast.

Among the high mountains, there is a group of people and horses marching silently, and occasionally there will be a few snorts of war horses.

Chu Yan... No, he should be called Zhang Yan, standing on the hill, watching the procession of this team.

The snowflake horse that had been with him for many years stood quietly behind him, and two stocky men stood on either side of Zhang Yan.He is about thirty or so, older than Zhang Yan.But from the way they looked at Zhang Yan, they could find a kind of respect from the bottom of their hearts.They just stood there, like two stone statues, without saying a word.

His eyes are deep, as if he wants to cross mountains and rivers, time and space.

"Dong Bi..."

Zhang Yan suddenly turned her head, "Meng Ping, Quan Yi, you must remember this name. If we have a future, he will be our greatest enemy."

"Marshal, Wan County is really hopeless?"

"What do you say?"

Zhang Yan looked at the two of them and smiled slightly.Liu Bi, Liu Mengping, and Gong Du Gong Quanyi, both of them were commander-in-chief of the Yellow Turban Army. They had seven or eight thousand soldiers in their hands, but they followed him without hesitation.This moved Zhang Yan very much.

"I have never admired anyone else in my life except my adoptive father. But now, I have to admire two more people. Dong Bi, who single-handedly disturbed our Taipingdao, is also the first one who made me The opponent who returned in vain...and Qin Jie, who thought he was incompetent, but he actually killed Marshal Zhang before he retreated, very clever."

Liu Pi turned his neck, "Great? How do you say that?"

Zhang Yan seemed to be talking to herself, "I didn't care about it at first. But after Peng Tuo Qushuai arrived, I understood Qin Jie's intention. He was using a divorce plan to kill the commander-in-chief, but put the blame on him. It came down to me. The sixteen Qu commanders in the south were not very convinced by me, and I broke through Wan County, and forced Qin Jie to kill the commander, isn't it wise?"

Gong Du came to his senses, "Marshal, are you saying that we were fooled by Qin Jie?"

Zhang Yan nodded, "I still can't explain it. After Peng Tuoqu arrived, everyone became more dissatisfied with me. I also saw this and decided to leave Wan County. Moreover, Wan County... Not really a barrier."

Liu Pi asked, "Marshal, where should we go?"

"There is no hope for the great cause of Taiping Dao, and it will only die sooner or later. The most urgent thing is that we need to choose a place to recuperate for a while. Did you all see that Dong Bi killed Sun Xia by the Yishui River? But he also found out. We evacuated suddenly because we were worried about an ambush... It can be regarded as my last effort for the brothers in Wan County."

Zhang Yan's expression was a little lonely, but soon returned to normal.

"But it doesn't matter, we have plenty of time. Although we failed to accomplish anything this time, it is because the time is not yet ripe. From a certain point of view, the Han Dynasty will decline, and the world will be chaotic. I am waiting for a while, just to fly away in the future Get ready for the sky."

After speaking, he got on his horse.

Liu Pi and Gong both mounted their horses, "Marshal, how long do we have to wait?"

"Hey, it depends on how long those scholars can endure...Scholars have no soldiers, warriors have no names, how do you think this world is not chaotic? Meng Ping, Quan Yi, you wait patiently. The dog emperor opened the party's imprisonment , The battle in the court is just the beginning. Let them make a fuss, the more fuss they make, the more opportunities we have."

After hearing this, Liu Pi and Gong Du became more confident.

The three of them rushed down the hill on horseback, and disappeared into the wild mountains with the team.

A gust of mountain wind blew, swaying and rustling the vegetation on Rangshan Mountain.Perhaps, as Zhang Yan said, everything has just begun.

******
The four gates of Wan County were closed tightly, dilapidated under the setting sun.

After Dong Zhuo's army arrived at the bank of the Feishui River, they immediately sent out scouts to look for Dong Pi's whereabouts.At the same time, Hua Xiong, Xu Rong, and Hu Zhen were ordered to each lead a team and station troops at the west, south, and north gates.He led 1 people and set up camp at the east gate.

According to Li Ru's plan, Wan County was to besieged but not attacked.

But Dong Zhuo didn't fight, but it didn't mean that the Yellow Turbans didn't want to fight.

Zhang Yan, Liu Pi and Gong Du left first, greatly affecting the morale of the Yellow Turban Army.Then he was defeated by Dong Yu on the banks of the Yishui River. For the Yellow Turban Army in Wan County, it was even worse.At this time, the Yellow Turban Army urgently needs a victory to boost morale.Even a small victory can play a key role.So Peng Tuo decided to attack.

Taking advantage of Dong Zhuo's men's unsteady foothold, Peng Tuo gathered all his men and rushed out from the four gates.

The north gate where Hua Xiong was stationed happened to meet Qu Shuai Buji, the Yellow Turban Army.The two of them fought together without saying a word.In just three rounds, Hua Xiong beheaded himself under his horse, and the Yellow Turban army was defeated and retreated back to the city; , but was shot back by Dong Zhuo with a shower of arrows, leaving behind hundreds of corpses, and returned without success.

In contrast, Hu Zhen, who was stationed at the south gate, had a bit of a hard time.

Facing the frantic attack of the Yellow Turban Army, Hu Zhen's camp had not yet been set up, so he could only fight hastily.

The two sides were fighting under the city, and seeing their own troops retreating steadily, Hu Zhen was very anxious!
At this critical moment, suddenly a group of people rushed out, about a thousand people.The first general was born with a broad forehead and a broad face, with a strong back and a strong waist.With an ancient ingot knife in his hand, he rushed left and right in the crowd, like a tiger descending a mountain.

Behind him were two men of similar age, both in their 30s.

They are all wearing helmets and armor, one wields two knives, the other is a water-splitting ghost knife, and the killing method is extraordinarily brave.

As soon as these three people appeared, the pressure on Hu Zhen was greatly relieved.

I couldn't help cheering up, and shouted: "Where is the hero coming to help?"

"I am Sun Jian, Prime Minister of Xiapi. I heard that Wan County fell, and I am specially recruiting village braves to help put down the rebellion."

Hearing that he is one of his own, Hu Zhen is no longer worried.At the moment, gather people and fight back fiercely.The morale of the Yellow Turban Army was not too strong.That is, Hu Zhen's side was a little weaker, which allowed them to gain the upper hand.Now when they saw reinforcements arriving from the officers and soldiers, the morale that had just risen disappeared without a trace. They shouted in unison, and Sa Yazi ran into the city.

As soon as Sun Jian saw the bandit soldiers retreating, he immediately patted his horse and gave chase, killing countless enemies.

Sun Jian didn't withdraw his troops until arrows were released from the top of the wall.After meeting Hu Zhen, he led his troops to the east gate to meet Dong Zhuo.

Sun Jian was very hot-tempered, and when he saw Dong Zhuo open his mouth, he asked, "Why did General Zhonglang not attack and let the rebels go wild?"

Dong Zhuo was originally in a good mood, but was annoyed by Sun Jian's words!

Originally, he was the chief general, and Sun Jian was just a subordinate, so why should he ask aggressively as soon as they met?

"I have my own opinion, I don't need to ask more."

"General Zhonglang, we should serve the country and share the worries of the king when we eat the salary of the court. Now that the rebels are desperate, we should do our best to wipe them out completely and return the world to me. Why is the general so late? Why don't you make a move?"

As soon as these words came out, the two people behind Sun Jian immediately knew something was wrong.

"Wentai, pay attention to your tone!"

Only then did Sun Jian realize that he had said the wrong thing.He deliberately stepped forward to explain to Dong Zhuo, but Dong Zhuo snorted coldly, threw up his sleeves and walked away.It made Sun Jian and his party blush and neck thick, standing at the gate of the camp, neither entering nor leaving.

"Wentai, you too...why can't you get rid of that hot temper?"

A person behind him sighed and reproached him softly.This person was somewhat similar in size and appearance to Sun Jian, but he lacked a bit of Sun Jian's bravery and added a bit of elegance.

When he said this, the people next to him were unwilling.

"Da Rong, what are you talking about? Although Wentai is a little reckless, what he said is not unreasonable. This general Zhonglang is not the slightest bit tolerant, and I think it is just a show. Wentai, why don't we go back?" , it’s better than staying here and being bullied by this kind of person.”

"What's this saying?"

Sun Jian frowned, "Darong is right, I was a little reckless before. Why don't you go and set up camp first, and Darong and I will apologize to the general. They are both serving the country. I think General Zhonglang is not stingy." people."

"Then I'll go too."

"Gong Fu, your fiery temper is similar to that of Wentai, so it's better not to go. I will go with Wentai, and nothing will happen."

The man nodded, "Forget it, you guys go. If General Bird gives you any favors, we'll go back."

After hearing this, Sun Jian couldn't help but be a little bit dumbfounded.

Nodding his head, he led another person into the camp.The man took a step forward, cupped his hands and said: "Please tell Lord General Zhonglang that Sun Jian, the Prime Minister of Xiapi, has been recruited to help the battle. I also hope that Lord General Zhonglang will not hesitate to receive him."

The soldiers at the gate of the camp responded and ran to the big tent of the Chinese army to report.

After a while, the soldier came back, "Master Zhonglang invites you two in."

Immediately, Sun Jian adjusted his clothes and walked into the barracks with Darong.In the big tent of the Chinese army, Dong Zhuo was discussing the military situation with Li Ru.

Seeing the two people come in, his face darkened.

Sun Jian took a step forward and said, "The last general's words were a little rude, please forgive me, Mr. Zhonglang."

Since it was a mistake, Dong Zhuo was not a stingy person, he smiled and waved his hand to signal Sun Jian to sit down.

He glanced at the person behind Sun Jian, "This is..."

Sun Jian quickly said: "This is the general's friend from the same hometown. His surname is Zu, his name is Mao, and his surname is Darong. He is now serving under the general's command."

Dong Zhuo smiled, "He looks mighty."

Zu Mao was also asked to sit down, sighed and said: "The general doesn't know something, it's not that Dong is unwilling to fight. In the battle of Yingchuan, my subordinates suffered heavy losses. There are still nearly [-] rebels in Wan County. If you attack rashly, there may be accidents."

"But the rebels are at the end of the road, and their morale is low. We should try our best to defeat them. If we delay, I'm afraid something will happen. I hope the general thinks twice."

Dong Zhuo frowned, feeling very unhappy.

You are the commander, I am the commander?I have already said the reason, and you still want me to work hard, to work hard.If you can win without fighting, why do you have to lose your troops?
Seeing Dong Zhuo's appearance, Li Ru seemed to want to have a seizure, and lightly pressed his arm.

"The general is loyal, he is indeed a role model for us. In fact, General Zhonglang also has plans to attack the four gates and wipe out the rebels in the city. But you should also see that our army is insufficient. There is no commander in the army outside the south gate. It's hard to do."

Sun Jian rose up against the case and intervened, saying: "The last general is not talented, and I am willing to share your worries for the adults."

Dong Zhuo didn't understand what medicine Li Ru was selling in his throat.He glanced at Li Ru suspiciously, which meant: What do you mean?
Li Ru smiled and signaled Dong Zhuo not to worry.

"In this case, I ask the general to move to the south gate, and assist Hu Zhen to attack the south gate tomorrow morning. The general will attack together, and the other three gates will also launch an attack. Whoever can attack the top of the city first, this first achievement will be recorded On whose head, how?"

Sun Jian said loudly: "The final general is willing to do his best!"

Zu Mao frowned slightly, feeling that there seemed to be something wrong.

But he couldn't tell what the problem was, so after hesitating for a while, he and Sun Jian bid farewell and left.

Looking at the backs of the two, Dong Zhuo suddenly said, "I don't like this person very much."

"Father-in-law, Confucianism doesn't like this man either."

Sometimes it's like this, you don't need any reason to like someone or not.Speaking of which, if Sun Jian could be more tactful and lower his posture, Dong Zhuo might still have a good impression of him.pity……

"Wenzheng, haven't we already agreed to encircle and not attack? Why do we have to attack all four?"

Li Ru sneered and said, "Father-in-law, since someone is willing to take the place of the dead ghost, why not do it? Inform Hu Zhen that Sun Jian will take his men to lead the battle tomorrow morning, and it will also be a good time to spy on the situation in Wan County for us. If you win, it's your father-in-law who commanded you well; if you lose, it has nothing to do with you. Let's make a feint and let Sun Jian go all out."

Dong Zhuo nodded again and again, "Very good, very good...then you arrange it!"

As he spoke, he stretched his waist, "Is there any news about Ah Chou?"

Li Ru shook his head and said softly: "The whereabouts are still unknown. I am also surprised that there are so many horses, why did they disappear all of a sudden? But father-in-law, please rest assured, A Chou is a tiger general in the world, and he can gallop on the battlefield with dozens of people." Now he has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses around him, and he has counselors to plan, there will be no problems, and Confucianism will continue to search."

"Well, this kid... always worries me. Wenzheng, I don't like that Sun Jian very much."

"Ru understands!"

******
On the second day, Sun Jian led his troops to launch a fierce attack on Wan County.

For a time, migratory locusts filled the sky, covering the sky and blocking out the sun.The sound of rumbling war drums tore apart the tranquility in the sky above Wan County, and it was very lively.

Sun Jian went out to fight in person, braving the rain of locust arrows, holding a shield in one hand and an ancient ingot knife in the other, and shouted loudly: "This is the moment when a man makes meritorious deeds, sons follow me to kill thieves!"

More than 1000 townships shouted and screamed, and launched an attack on Wan County without fear of death.

Hu Zhen kept sneering from behind, and ordered his soldiers to shoot at the Yellow Turban army on the city.But seeing a cloud ladder on the city wall, Sun Jian led Zu Mao and the two climbed up the ladder first, held the ancient ingot knife with his mouth, held the shield in one hand, and climbed up with the other hand.

In the distance, Dong Zhuo watched the battle accompanied by Li Ru.

Seeing Sun Jian being so brave, he couldn't help sighing: "This guy is really a tiger!"

Li Ru smiled and said, "Although the tiger is brave, it still cannot escape the hunter's tricks. Father-in-law, let the other sects make more noise."

"As it should be!"

Dong Zhuo kept sneering, watching Sun Jian's subordinates fall in a pool of blood one by one, he felt very happy.

Let you contradict me?This is what happens when you contradict me!
But Sun Jian, who was on the battlefield, watched his subordinates die one by one, feeling like a knife was twisting his heart.After being repelled once, the red-eyed Sun Jian took off his armor and rushed to the top of the city again shirtless.Zu Mao and the two were terrified, and hurriedly led a hundred soldiers to cover them.Seeing that the general is working so hard, those country braves are also red-eyed.

Sun Jian put his hands on the battlements and jumped up to the top of the walls.

Swinging the big shield, he smashed the head of a yellow scarf soldier, and took out the ancient ingot knife from his mouth like a mad tiger.

The blade is blazing, and flesh and blood are flying everywhere.

Zu Mao and the two also climbed to the top of the wall, and followed Sun Jian to fight hard.

But the number of Yellow Turban Army is too many.Even if there is no morale, but at the moment of life and death, a terrible fighting force broke out.

Following Sun Jian to the top of the city, there were hundreds of followers, who were quickly overwhelmed by the Yellow Turban Army...

A stray arrow flew over and directly shot at Sun Jian's shoulder.The pain caused Sun Jian to yell, and almost dropped the sword in his hand.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Zu Mao and the two immediately supported Sun Jian and retreated down the city.

"Let go of me, let me go..."

Zu Mao slapped Sun Jian on the neck and knocked him unconscious, "Gongfu, take the Wentai down, retreat, retreat!"
