The first general of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 98 Attack and Kill Yuyang
"Wen Yuan, why is the situation like this?"

It took Wei Tao only one month to leave Youzhou and go back and forth, but Wei Tao never expected that the situation in Youzhou would turn out to be so good.

A group of Wuhuan soldiers set up camp outside Jicheng. Although they were monitored by the Youzhou Army, they did not complain at all.

Obviously, the Wuhuan people had already accepted Liu Yu's consolation.

We must know that when Wuhuan was helping Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun in history, he invaded the four prefectures of Qing, You, Xu, and Ji, and the people of the Han family who had just barely escaped from the Yellow Turban Rebellion suffered from the turmoil of war.

It wasn't until Wuhuan found out that the Han people had been severely injured, but Wuhuan soldiers also suffered a lot from the attack of the Han army, and then he accepted Liu Yu's consolation, helped to suppress Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun's rebellion, and then returned to Wuhuan himself territory.

Although he killed Wuhuan's vanguard going south, it would not have made such a big change.

Wuhuan won't give up easily if he hasn't suffered enough.

That's why Wei Tao wanted to raid Wuhuan, so that the people of Wuhuan had to give up the idea of ​​invading the big man.

"My lord doesn't know, but shortly after my lord left, the leader of Beiping prefect Gongsun dispatched Bai Ma Yicong to quietly attack the Wuhuan camp under the cover of night, killing thousands of enemies in one battle. Then he made the Liu Bei brothers confront Wuhuan. There were three matches, a total of ten Wuhuan generals were killed in the three matches, and the rest were even more defeated, Wuhuan leader Qiu Liju was frightened and dared not accept Master Liu's consolation."

Wei Tao was just taken aback.

Wei Tao naturally didn't know that Gongsun Zan's brazen attack at this time was more or less related to him.

Wei Tao first wiped out Wuhuan's vanguard, and then prepared to raid Wuhuan's lair. If Wei Tao did what he did, then Wuhuan would have to retreat, and it would be difficult for Gongsun Zan to seek meritorious service.

Why did he fight Wuhuan several times and even prevent Liu Yu from recruiting Wuhuan?

Firstly, Gongsun Zan hated Wuhuan and wished to destroy his family, and secondly, because Gongsun Zan, as the prefect of Beiping, defended the northern border, he had to fight Wuhuan if he wanted to make meritorious service.

But at this time, Wei Tao didn't care too much, but noticed that Zhang Liao mentioned Liu Bei and others, and immediately asked.

"Then Liu Bei and the other three have always been under Lu Zhonglang's account? Although Lu Zhonglang has resigned now, how did these three people come to Gongsun's account?"

"It is said that after chasing Zhang Jiao to no avail, Liu Bei took the initiative to ask Lu Zhi to resign from the frontier, and then for some reason, he was accepted by Gongsun Taishou and took up the post of Sima in another department. However, not long ago, Gongsun Taishou had already reported to the court. For his meritorious service, he was awarded the title of Colonel of Peking."

Wei Tao really didn't know what to say.

It can only be said that Liu Bei is really capable.

Not long after Zhang Jiao escaped, Lu Zhi was dismissed from the military because he did not bribe the eunuchs, but because of his merits, the court still gave him a vacant position, and it was not difficult.

It's just that after this incident, Lu Zhi resigned in frustration.

Originally thought that without Lu Zhi's support, Liu Bei should have no chance. Unexpectedly, he found Gongsun Zan as a backer again, and he was still in trouble.

"Unfortunately, if I had been appointed as the prefect earlier, I would definitely not give Liu Bei a bright future, like tonight!"

Wei Tao secretly sighed in his heart, when he first met Liu Bei, he was a lowly official, not much better than Liu Bei, and could not suppress him, but now, although he is not comparable to himself, he is a school captain after all, and he is not as good as Liu Bei. Gongsun Zan had a good relationship, but he still couldn't suppress him.

"Then this Wuhuan is attacking Yuyang together with us?"

Wei Tao just frowned slightly. Although Liu Bei was able to dominate one side in history, compared with Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and others, he was even more superior. Wei Tao would not worry about the future.

"That's right. This is an agreement between Taishou Liu and the leader of Wuhuan. In fact, if it weren't for the two warning cards, the people of Wuhuan would have taken it directly."

Zhang Liao felt a little sorry for not being able to resolve the war early.

"However, Youzhou is only short of soldiers, and all kinds of siege equipment are still in place. The battle against Yuyang should be in the near future. The general's return will be a reward."

Wei Tao nodded, he had a general understanding of the current situation in Youzhou.

Maybe it was because of hearing of Wei Tao's return, Liu Yu soon sent someone to invite him.

In the hall, apart from Liu Yu, the three brothers Liu Bei were also there. Guan and Zhang were standing behind Liu Bei, and another Wuhuan barbarian leader was dressed up. It should be the Wuhuan leader Qiu Liju.

In addition, there is another person who is wearing armor and is very tall. Looking from the front, he looks like a resolute and resolute person.

"I've met Lord Liu, I've seen Colonel Liu, I think this should be Lord Gongsun, the prefect of Beiping. I'm defending Ziyu, and I've heard for a long time that Lord fought against Wuhuan and defended our great Han territory, which is admirable."

That person was Gongsun Zan, and even someone like Gongsun Zan couldn't help but smile slightly when he heard Wei Tao talk about the proud things in his life.

"Unexpectedly, General Wen Yuan didn't come. These days, Bei has benefited a lot from General Wen Yuan."

At this moment, Liu Bei suddenly spoke.

"Originally, I was going to ask General Wen Yuan for help in person, but now I can only do it after the fact, and I hope my lord will not take offense."

If it were someone who was very suspicious, he would be suspicious just by hearing this.

However, it may not be true for other people, but for Zhang Liao Weitao, I believe it very much.

"If Lieutenant Liu has the heart, he can come at any time."

After answering these words, Wei Tao looked at Liu Yu again.

"I heard that your lord wants to attack Yuyang, but I don't know what your lord wants to do?"

"Hehe, although the old man is not good at military affairs, he also knows the method of besieging three and missing one, but Er Zhang dared to rebel against the big man. It is a heinous crime. I want to defend the prefect, Gongsun prefect each attack one, and the old man leads the troops himself. Attack one, and then the Wuhuan people are willing to attack and kill one, and all four will go out together, and they will definitely wipe out all the traitors who have no father and no king!"

Although Liu Yu is a good old man, he is not polite when facing such a rebellion.

Wei Tao looked down and saw that everyone in the hall seemed to have no objection. He immediately knew that everyone had made a plan, so he immediately nodded and said.

"This discussion is also possible, but my headquarters is short of manpower, and it is really powerless to attack and kill one side alone."

To be honest, Wei Tao didn't have much interest in siege.

The siege is about encircling ten times and attacking five times. As long as the defenders are not too reckless and fall into tricks like aggressive generals, the siege battle will take a long time, no matter how famous the general is, it will inevitably lose troops.

Most of Wei Tao's headquarters are recruits, and if they go into battle to attack the city, let alone casualties.

How can Wei Tao give up?

"How about I use Colonel Liu to lead [-] troops to help you? The enemy is trapped in Yuyang, and they can only defend themselves, but it is futile. If they attack from all sides, they will definitely be defeated."

Gongsun Zan spoke slowly at this time, but Guan and Zhang's expressions were not good when they heard these words.

"It's my job to help General Xuande. If General Xuande can break through the city first, I'm more willing to follow him."

Wei Tao knew that such people were not members of the headquarters, and they were not people with the same heart as him. Instead of cooperating with each other, it is better to work separately.

What's more, Wei Tao's army is only more than a thousand. Although the official position is higher, how can he instruct Liu Bei and the three of them?

"How dare Xuande! How dare!"

Liu Bei just declined a few times and finally agreed. Liu Bei's army was under Gongsun Zan's army, so he didn't have as many scruples as Wei Tao.

In fact, everything has been arranged. After Gongsun Zan's arrival, Liu Yu, the state shepherd, is willing to be too useless. In addition, after recruiting Wuhuan, Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun's strength has been greatly reduced, and it is now time to break it. .

If it hadn't been for knowing that Wei Tao would be back within a day or two, in order to give face to Wei Tao, the prefect, and further weaken the morale of Yuyang's defense, the war would have started long ago.

In the early morning of the next day, countless soldiers lined up, and all kinds of swords, guns, swords and halberds were prepared, which made people daunting at first sight.

"Dong dong dong..."

"Kill! Kill! Kill..."

Countless shouts came from all directions, even the soldiers of Yuyang who had sworn vows not long ago were also very calm at this moment, looking at each other, already timid.

"Gollum..."

At this time, the city-charging vehicle that was originally behind the formation was also exposed, and the huge crashing log made these soldiers even more frightened.

"Edict of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty: Zhang Chun, the former prefect of Zhongshan, and Zhang Ju, the former prefect of Taishan, are punishable by the clan for their intention to rebel! The rest of them will be spared death if they are coerced by Er Zhang, and they will be sent back to their hometown after serving three years in prison. Those who are coerced will not be killed if they put down their swords, and those who resist in the corner, beheaded!"

Liu Yu should have obtained this imperial decree a long time ago, and asking it out at this time is indeed a finishing touch. The guards of Yuyang, who were originally hesitant, are even more hesitant now.

"Absurd! I am the true Son of Heaven, and I will replace the Han in the place of heaven. The mere Han army must be punished by heaven!"

At this time, Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun also showed up, one in the royal robe of Nine Dragons, and the other in gorgeous armor.

That Zhang Chun is nothing more than that, a suit of gorgeous armor can also show a bit of heroism, but that Zhang Ju feels a bit wretched even in a dragon robe, which is exactly what the monkey and the crown should be.

"kill!"

Liu Yu, who was on top of the chariot, also had a rare moment of might. With a wave of his hand, a total of 2 people from the four routes rushed up from all directions.

"kill……"

Although the Yuyang guards rushed to shoot with arrows, Liu had already prepared for it. Every soldier rushing forward had a leather shield.

This leather shield can't protect the whole body, but just throwing down dozens of corpses means that the ladder has been put on the city wall.

"Kill! Kill! Let me kill them all!"

Zhang Ju was still able to maintain a trace of composure before the start of the war, but when he saw the 2 troops from the Fourth Route Army rushing forward, the last bit of calm also disappeared. It's all said.

"After this battle, everyone will be promoted to general and will be rewarded with ten thousand coins!"
