King of Liao at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 841 The Battle of Xinping (1)

In the middle of the night, the two armies confronted each other under the majestic wind. Although the torches above and below the city had already illuminated the surroundings, the connected fires still couldn't drive away the cold weather.

Li Lin raised his head, looked at Jia Xu on the top of the city, and waited for the answer Jia Xu gave him. As for Jia Xu, he had already made a conclusion in his heart. Now, he just wanted to use Li Lin's love for him. heart.

Why is this so?This is war. Under your lords, Jia Xu must do this, and Li Lin also needs talents, and he did nothing wrong. Looking at Li Lin under the city, Jia Xu slowly said: "Liaohou! You attack Let's go to the city..." Then he whispered to Zhang Baiqi beside him, "Marshal, prepare to defend the city!"

"Promise!" Zhang Baiqi promised, and with a slight tidying up, the archers on both sides immediately bent their bows and set up arrows, making all preparations.

"This..." Li Lin was startled, and Jia Xu once again rejected him forcefully. Li Lin said helplessly, "Sir! Do you want to do this? With the wisdom of Mr., you should understand that this scene The battle, sir is defeated! Although Lin Shengzhi is not martial, but sir! You should understand the way of the battlefield!"

Jia Xu nodded slowly, took a long breath, let out a ball of condensed ice crystals, Jia Xu said slowly: "Liaohou! It is because the old man understands the way of the battlefield that I tell you, you attack the city! And the outcome is still unknown!"

Li Lin frowned, and immediately said: "Sir! Could it be that you are still thinking about the other two cities, Sun Guan and Peng Tuo's men coming back to rescue Xinping? To tell you the truth, whoever comes and who dies!" Li Lin's last four The words are quite imposing, just like the other two cities, although I haven't captured them yet, but they are already in my pocket. If the soldiers and horses of the two cities leave the city, they will undoubtedly die!

"What!" Zhang Baiqi screamed, and immediately shouted: "Li Yuanjie! You...you actually..."

"Marshal!" Jia Xu stopped Zhang Baiqi with a wave of his hand, and then softly shouted to Li Lin: "Since Marquis Liao will lead the army in person, I have already thought of such a result, but! Marquis Liao! However, in the hands of the old man and all the soldiers, if you don’t take down for a moment, you can’t judge success or failure for a moment!” Jia Xu’s appearance, although calm, can greatly enhance his own momentum, and Li Lin’s words are not the same. It seems to be suppressing the morale of the Yellow Turban Army, but Jia Xu's very plain words, but it shows that Li Lin's words are so useless or even superfluous. Li Lin and Jia Xu seem to be chatting In the conversation, isn't the momentum tit-for-tat, each making crooked moves?
"Damn it!" Li Lin cursed in a low voice, and said in his heart, "This Jia Xu is really difficult to deal with. He has reached this level and is still so strong. It seems that he can only be forced!"

Li Lin gritted his teeth, looked at Jia Xu on the top of the wall with complicated eyes, cupped his hands and said, "Sir! Offended!" Then he waved his hand, and Li Lin shouted: "Siege the city!"

"Woo..." With an order, the long sound of the horn recalled that the two armies separated, and the men and horses of the Demon Wolf Department rushed out quickly. They were the forwards, and after that there were those who were good at attacking the city from Ma Chao's Xiliang army. The Xiliang army is also good at one-horse battles, so in terms of siege, Li Lin's men are indeed extremely short of such soldiers and horses, but the Xinping City in front of him can't be regarded as impenetrable, but the two bosses inside make it difficult for him to fight. Li Lin was just a little apprehensive, the tens of thousands of troops behind him were enough!
"Kill!" Shouts rang out, and the demon wolf rushed up first, while the archers of the Yellow Turban Army who had been prepared on the top of the city immediately launched an attack, and the arrows poured down like snowflakes. It is no longer, but such a battlefield does not need to aim at each other.

Both sides are battle-tested people, both offensive and defensive are so easy to do, it just depends on who can hold on, under the night wind, Xinping City began a seemingly normal pattern of offensive and defensive battles, and gradually, Eunuch Sun climbed up Up above, it's time for the moon to change shifts, but under the city of Xinping, there is a mess, but the city is still in Jia Xu's hands...

Li Lin led the army and slowly withdrew from the top of the city. With Jia Xu guarding Xinping, how can it be taken down overnight? Li Lin had already made plans to surround Jia Xu and Zhang Baiqi, and immediately ordered All the soldiers and horses surrounded Xinping, and they must not let Jia Xu escape.

After a night of fighting, the soldiers on both sides were extremely exhausted, Jia Xu returned to the room with the support of Hu Che'er and Zhang Baiqi.

"Cough, cough, cough..." As soon as he entered the room, Jia Xu, who had been holding on all night, finally couldn't hold on anymore. There was a violent coughing sound, and Jia Xu's body was trembling non-stop. .

"Sir!" There were two exclamations in unison. Hu Che'er and Zhang Baiqi were shocked, and immediately supported Jia Xu and put him on the couch. Zhang Baiqi shouted anxiously to the door: "Hurry up! Where is the sir's medicine?" !" Looking at Zhang Baiqi's distorted face, the blood on his body hadn't even had time to wipe off, and he did send Jia Xu back first. This is how much he cares for Jia Xu. When the battle broke out last night, Zhang Baiqi immediately persuaded Jia Xu to go back, but Jia Xu insisted on not doing it, she had to stay at the top of the city, even if she didn't speak, Jia Xu would stand there quietly, as long as Jia Xu was there, even Zhang Baiqi would have a bottom line in his heart somehow, It is even said that other soldiers, but the whole night, those strong soldiers can fight, fight without sleep, but how can Jia Xu, a man who is nearly half a hundred years old and seriously ill, can bear it, his body is already more serious. of weakness.

"Master!" Jia Xu, who was lying on the couch, heard Zhang Baiqi's weak cry, and Zhang Baiqi came over immediately, seeing Jia Xu's raised hand, Zhang Baiqi quickly held it. , said excitedly: "Sir!"

Jia Xu gently clenched Zhang Baiqi's hand, and said slowly: "Commander! In this battle, we did not lose to the right time, place, and people, but to our coach himself!"

As he spoke, Jia Xu shook his arm, Zhang Baiqi immediately nodded fiercely, and said, "Yes!" Although he didn't understand what Jia Xu meant, Zhang Baiqi quickly gave Jia Xu a comforting look.

Jia Xu slowly turned his head away, stared at Zhang Baiqi, and said: "In the afternoon, Li Yuanjie will definitely come to attack the city. My old bones may be a little bit immobile. You are on the top of the city. Persevere, must persevere, at least today!"

Nonsense, of course you have to stick to it, otherwise if the city is broken, wouldn't Zhang Baiqi and Jia Xu both die?

Apparently Zhang Baiqi still didn't understand the deep meaning of Jia Xu's words, Zhang Baiqi nodded fiercely, and said, "Don't worry, sir! I will definitely keep Li Lin's army out of the city!"

"But!" Jia Xu suddenly changed the subject, and the strength in his hands increased slightly, "Marshal, it's not...it's not a last resort, it must be, it must not be...... forehead cough cough cough... "Halfway through speaking, Jia Xu kept coughing.

This time, Zhang Baiqi understood the meaning of Jia Xu's words, but Zhang Baiqi really didn't dare to promise Jia Xu about this matter, because when it came to a critical juncture, Zhang Baiqi couldn't help but not use his last ruthless move. Although that would put him to death, Zhang Baiqi would rather use such a price in exchange for the lives of his soldiers!

"Sir! The medicine is here!" A maid has already brought the steaming medicine outside the door.

Zhang Baiqi hurried over to pick it up. He originally wanted to feed Jia Xu the medicine himself, but he was afraid that Jia Xu would continue talking about what happened just now, so he handed the medicine bowl to Hu Che'er and said, "Come on!"

"Yeah!" Hu Che'er nodded, and took it over. Zhang Baiqi immediately said to Jia Xu, "Mr., take a rest. Don't worry, I'm on top of the city!" Bai Qi immediately strode away and left the house.

"Sir! Take your medicine!" Hu Che'er slowly helped Jia Xu up, and said softly.

"Cough, cough..." Jia Xu coughed twice, sighed, shook his head, and said, "Hey... handsome! Why are you doing this?" Immediately, Jia Xu lowered his head, Hu Che Carefully feed Jia Xu the medicine.

Sure enough, Li Lin's army rested from early morning to noon, and when the day was warmest, Li Lin assembled his army again and came to kill...

When the army arrived at the base of the city, a cavalry came out slowly, pointed at the top of Xinping City and shouted: "Listen up, people in the city, Linjing has been breached by our army! Yueji is dead! Wait until the end is here, why don't you open the city gate quickly Surrender, my lord has already ordered, as long as you surrender, everyone will be promoted to three levels in a row and rewarded with thousands of dollars!"

After such a long time, the accurate news from Linjing has come. Yueji was killed in battle, Midang was rescued, and Linjing was completely controlled by Li Lin's troops. Ji's remaining Eastern Qiang soldiers and horses have also been defeated by Kavro and Brother Bao. Except for the few fleeing without a trace, most of the remaining people have surrendered. After all, Yueji is dead. Very useful, those vacillating knew that Yueji was dead, and immediately fell to Midang's side, followed by Li Lin.It can be said that there are only three cities controlled by the Yellow Turban Army left.

However, to Li Lin's surprise, Sun Guan and Peng Tuo from the other two cities did not immediately rush to rescue Jia Xu and Zhang Baiqi from Xinping as he had expected, but stood still and held on to the city. , let Li Lin feel a little bit wrong, but the big head is still in Xinping. I don't pay attention to it at all......

As soon as the shout came out from the city, there was a little commotion on the top of the city, Zhang Baiqi immediately stood up, pointed at the city and shouted: "Hey! Rebellious ministers and thieves, don't be rampant, how can such lies deceive us? Think It is wishful thinking to get cholera in our army! All soldiers! People are in the city!"
