Rampage through the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 201

In May of the third year of Chuping, Zhang De appointed Huang Zhong as the commander-in-chief, Zang Ba as the deputy commander, and Chen Gong as the military division of the army, leading [-] troops to attack Xiapi.

In Xiapi City, although Tao Qian recently recruited another 2 horses, plus the original defenders, there are also 5 to [-] people in Xiapi City, but this is already the limit of Xiapi.The Xuzhou Army lost to Zhang De many times, which made the morale of the soldiers in Xiapi City low.

And the Xuzhou family no longer supported the Chen family as one-sidedly as before. Faced with Zhang De's dominance, those aristocratic families who knew the way of self-protection had appeared to loosen up. Many people had begun to contact Zhang De secretly, and most of them Most of the aristocratic families watched from the sidelines, quietly watching the battle between Zhang De and Tao Qian.

After Tao Qian's son was arrested, his health was not as good as before, and he was often bedridden, so the defense of Xiapi was simply handed over to Chen Deng.

When Huang Zhong arrived at the city of Xiapi, he was not in a hurry to attack the city, but stationed there. After all, Zhang De had planned to flood Xiapi earlier, so Huang Zhong didn't need to attack the city to waste his troops.

Facing Huang Zhong's army outside the city, the soldiers in Xiapi City were all ready to defend the city, but they did not expect that Huang Zhong would not attack the city, which made Xiapi officers and soldiers feel a little empty and had nowhere to go.

The more this happened, the more worried the soldiers in the city were. In addition, there were rumors that Zhang Dejun was extremely powerful and had many siege weapons, so the soldiers in Xiapi City were still very afraid of the Beihai Navy. The soldiers in Xiapi City were filled with a tense atmosphere.

Many of the soldiers in the city were new recruits who had not been trained. Faced with the imminent danger, the recruits began to become overwhelmed. The atmosphere of terror gradually began to spread in the army. Huang Zhongyue did not attack the city. The soldiers became more and more afraid, and finally, the morale in Xiapi City began to decline.

Chen Deng soon found out about this matter. The morale of the army dropped like this, and the morale of the army was slackened. I am afraid that when Huang Zhong attacked the city, Xiapi City would not have much resistance.

At this time, a victory is urgently needed to boost the spirit and improve morale.But Huang Zhong didn't want to attack the city, so Chen Deng decided to go out to fight Huang Zhong. He didn't want to win, but he wanted to be undefeated. in terrible.This will boost morale.

Huangzhong camp outside the city.

Three days ago, Huang Zhong had already started to build dams on the Yihe River and Sishui River to store water, and in a few days the Xiapi could be flooded.

It seemed that the defenders of Xiapi City were about to defend to the death, and Huang Zhong was not in a hurry. Anyway, the attack now would be useless, so it was better to wait quietly for the heavy rain.

But today is a bit different. Early in the morning, the small school came to report to Huang Zhong, and there was a change in Xiapi City.Huang Zhong immediately went to check it himself, but he saw a group of soldiers had come out of the city and had set up a battle outside.

Huang Zhong laughed, he didn't go to attack, the Xuzhou soldiers wanted to beat him!Although Huang Zhong is nearly half a hundred years old this year, he is still very belligerent in his bones, so he immediately ordered people to line up and prepare to meet the enemy.

Before the formation of the two armies, Chen Deng looked at a golden-armored general in the distance, in his 40s and less than [-] years old, with a big knife in his hand, and a bow and arrow immediately hung up, thinking that this must be Zhang De's general Huang Zhong!I heard that Huang Zhong fought Lu Bu before the Hulao Pass, and finally beat Lu Bu with arrows, making him the number one fierce general in the world.When I saw it today, it really looks extraordinary!

At this moment, Huang Zhong rode forward, swiped his broadsword at the Xuzhou soldiers, and said loudly: "I am Huang Zhong and Huang Hansheng from Nanyang. You are a rat, dare to fight against a certain family!"

Seeing Huang Zhong coming to challenge, Chen Deng was about to go out, but was stopped by Chen Deng.This Huang Zhong is not someone to wait for.I came here this time to boost morale, but if Huang Zhong beheaded his general before the battle, the blow to morale would be very serious.

I just heard Chen Deng shout: "Old man Huang Zhong, you are nothing more than a brave man, we are innocent people, how can we only know the courage of men like you!"

"Child Chen Deng, you dare not fight against a certain family!"

"When the two armies are fighting, the use of soldiers should be the first priority! You pretend to be a general, but you only know how to be brave and ruthless, and you don't know how to use soldiers! You are really mediocre!" Chen Deng continued.

In terms of verbal skill, how could Huang Zhong compare to Chen Deng, and Chen Deng was speechless after a few sentences.Later, Zang Ba saw that his coach had suffered a loss in terms of words, and he knew that Huang Zhong would not be able to defeat Chen Deng even if it continued like this, so he went to the front of the two armies and said to Huang Zhong: "General, it's no better than talking to him. It's a waste of time, since Chen Deng dares to go out of the city to fight, let's give him a try."

Huang Zhong heard the same thing, he is a military commander, not a lobbyist, so why did he have to compete with Chen Deng, so he immediately shouted: "Child Chen Deng, since there is no one like you who can compete with a certain family, then Let's see the real chapter before the formation, take the lead in the camp, and form the formation!" After finishing speaking, Huang Zhong returned to the formation.

At this time, someone on the high platform of Huang Zhong's rear army waved a big flag in his hand, and the soldiers in the front row immediately raised their big shields and moved forward slowly.

Chen Deng was taken aback for a moment, this is not a siege battle, why did Huang Zhong put such a pair of shield soldiers in front, the heavy and thick shields of these shield soldiers made it very inconvenient for the soldiers to move, and it was not convenient for them to charge. It is not easy to retreat, and it is not lethal at all.

At this moment, the shield soldier stopped suddenly, and immediately after, countless small black spots flew out from behind the shield soldier, heading straight for his soldiers.

"It's a bow and arrow!" Chen Deng snorted coldly.How can a bow and arrow hit such a long distance!However, something unexpected happened to Chen Deng, and the rain of bows and arrows actually fell into the Xuzhou army formation.Xuzhou soldiers suddenly fell down a large piece.

"How is it possible!" Chen Deng exclaimed, and then shouted: "Quickly raise your shield!"

At this moment, a second wave of black spots appeared from behind the shield soldiers. The soldiers with shields raised their shields one after another, while the soldiers without shields squatted down, hoping to avoid the rain of arrows.

The rain of arrows began to fall, and the speed was getting faster and faster. Chen Deng seemed to be able to hear the clanging sound of the rain of arrows falling on the shield, but the expected sound did not appear, and those arrows actually penetrated the shield and hit the soldiers.

"Ah!" Chen Deng yelled.The soldiers held only leather shields, but they were not unable to block bows and arrows, and unless they were divine bows, ordinary bows and arrows would not be able to shoot so far.It is impossible for Zhang Dejun to find so many magic bows and so many strong men who can pull strong bows.So Chen Deng immediately realized that these were not bows and arrows, but crossbow arrows!
