The son of Yuan Shao who traveled through the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 164

In the evening, the sunset in the mountains is like blood.

The sun was already hard to see on the top of the peak, like a broken egg yolk, the golden juice flowed out and mixed with the black clouds in the sky.

The exit of the camp in front of Yan Ming is just like the mouth of a trumpet, and the low-lying area below the mouth is the end of the high slope.

In front of the camp under the half-light and half-dark sky, the Huainan army appeared all over the mountains and plains, and Zhao Yun's flags were everywhere.The mighty and earth-shattering army was divided into two armies to advance. On the right side were ten heavy-duty flying shuttle crossbow carts, and on the left side were more than twenty huge trebuchets.There are also hundreds of light ladders that can be climbed quickly, and the two armies are composed of spears, shields, soldiers, swordsmen and archers.There are many shadows and hazy and mighty cavalry in formation behind.

Yan Ming's heart sank, how can this battle be fought?
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" More than a hundred war drums were beating at the same time. The Huainan soldiers with a total strength of [-] soldiers in each team and a total strength of [-] soldiers advanced in an orderly manner, adding to the atmosphere of killing in the dark.

As soon as the strong lineup of Huainan soldiers was assembled, the sky became completely dark.Although torches had been lit in the camp, the light was limited, and due to the influence of the mountain, the Huainan soldiers could not be seen.Even more could not illuminate Yan Ming's heart.In Yan Ming's eyes, the sea-quiet night seemed to have been filled with Huainan soldiers.

This is Guo Jia's strategy, choosing to line up to prepare for the battle at dusk when the sun is about to set.Fully demonstrate the Huainan army's strong lineup and morale to the leaderless Cao soldiers, and chill the enemy's courage before fighting the enemy.This is a tactic to intimidate and demoralize the opponent, especially when the army has lost its commander.

Sure enough, many people in Cao Jun's face were sallow with fright, and they peed their pants.Especially those Cao soldiers who came back from the defeat continued to influence the morale of the army; "Zhao Zilong is simply the god of war. Before his gun touched General Chunyu, a blood hole appeared on the general's neck. Do you think it is powerful?" Zhao Yun Deliberately majestic and majestic, he immediately descended the slope and personally directed the preparations for the charge.The source of Cao Jun's terror is not only Yuan Jun's momentum but also the night.They could no longer see Yuan Bing at this moment.On the contrary, due to the high terrain, the torches in the village were brightly lit, and Yuan Jun could see them very clearly.In other words, they are in the open, and Yuan Jun is in the dark.From the bottom of my heart, every pore is hard to guard against, and it is better to surrender.

Intimidation!
Zhao Yunxiu wore a golden armor and shouted loudly: "I am Zhao Zilong from Changshan! The other coach came out to answer." When he heard Zhao Zilong came, Cao Yingzhong immediately fainted from fright.

Cao Ying did not have a coach, and Yan Ming's command was self-appointed.He won't do the stupid thing of beating the top bird with a stick.Yan Ming was accompanied by two lieutenants of Director Chunyu, Xia Houjie and Li Gang.The three bowed to each other.Yan Ming signaled Xia Houjie to answer.Xia Houjie is the least courageous, me?I don't want to go.What should I do if that person surnamed Zhao chased me back?He smiled and said: "General Li is the oldest and has the highest prestige in the army. General Li should go." Li Gang stared and shouted: "That's not possible. General Xiahou is the prime minister's clan, and his words have the most weight. You should go there." " Xia Houjie coughed and said: "Although I am a clan, the power of command at this moment is in the hands of General Yan Ming. How can I take over the responsibility? General Yan Ming, I think it is more appropriate for you to go." Li Gang listened and echoed: "Yes, I also agree with General Xiahou's statement."

Yan Ming cursed inwardly, you agree to a fart, you are clearly greedy for life and afraid of death.There is no way, who told him to take over the command, so he bravely approached the gate of the camp, pretending to say: "Zhao——" He wanted to greet Zhao Yun's mother first, so as to boost morale.But thinking about how powerful Zhao Yun was, his scalp was numb, and he said respectfully: "General Zhao, do you have anything to do with me?"

After hearing this dejected and useless words, the only morale left by the generals of Cao Jun disappeared instantly like a dark cloud swept by a strong wind.

Zhao Yun was stunned, what can I do for you? !

"Something, something, this general wants to tell you, today I brought an army of 20 to attack the village, will you surrender or not?" In fact, there is no 20, this is called a title.This is what intimidation warfare must do.Cao Cao used it against Sun Quan during the Battle of Chibi.Sun Quan was so frightened that he almost raised his hand and surrendered if it wasn't for Kong Ming and Lu Su.

Yan Ming almost blurted out to say surrender.But such a surrender seems to be underestimated.He cheered up, gritted his teeth, and said softly, "I won't surrender—is that okay?" Like a little girl playing coquettishly.Li Gang behind him was so angry, he thought that you would not surrender, but you said it out loud, what kind of talk is this!He was so angry that he didn't dare to go forward to speak, stomped behind anxiously, and scolded Yan Ming for being useless in his heart.In fact, he is more useless than Yan Ming!

Zhao Yun's appearance could not be seen clearly in the darkness, but he seemed to stand upright, his whole body immediately exuded a domineering power, and said sharply: "After the sound of the three-way drum, if you still don't surrender, 20 Wan Dajun can crush this camp into powder in an instant, but don't say that I don't give you a chance because I don't think about the virtues of good life." Xu Huang yelled and ran up from the side and shouted: "Surrender, or not? If you don't surrender, kill all the people here, and the soldiers will beat the drums and prepare to attack the city."

It is not easy to subdue others without fighting.It's best that there are no idiots in Cao Jun's camp, or else stop talking about everything!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The dense sound of war drums full of slaughter once again filled the valley of Funiu Mountain.The sound of the drums was like thunderstorms and torrential rains and torrents, and every hammer was like a drum reminding Cao Jun's soldiers that time is getting tighter and they must make a decision quickly.

Zhao Yun, Xu Huang and Gan Ning were more anxious than Cao Jun. They had better surrender, otherwise they would have to spend a lot of effort and cause many casualties.

Yan Ming turned around and spread his hands, "What should I do? What do you think should be done? Let's have an idea?" Xia Houjie and Li Gang looked at each other, neither wanting to take the blame.Then he said humbly: "You are the coach, we all listen to you, do what you say, and do what you like." Yan Ming hated these two bastards in his heart, and said in his heart, you It's really a push six two five, it's nothing to you.If you surrender, you will be forced to make trouble.If you don't surrender, you are not the commander-in-chief, and you can't be killed even if you are killed.But damn it hurts me.

"No, you two have to express your opinion, whether you will surrender or not, give me a quick word."

Xia Houjie blinked his eyes, thinking that he couldn't win the battle depending on the situation, there were 20 enemy soldiers.It is estimated that it will be done in one or two hours to attack the stronghold.Cao Ren's reinforcements will arrive at noon tomorrow at the earliest, and I'm afraid they won't be able to withstand it.But I am a relative of the prime minister, how dare I say surrender, isn't Yan Ming embarrassing me?In fact, Xia Houjie's clan is not working well, and he has made five suits with Cao Cao.Cao Cao didn't take care of him, and he didn't covet the relationship with the prime minister. Anyway, it's none of his business to get promoted and get rich.Then again, he is a relative after all, if he advocates surrender, he will lose face.

Li Gang was so soft-spoken that he didn't dare to speak.The drums outside were already beating for the third time. As soon as the drums stopped, the Huainan soldiers would attack the city.The soldiers were not in the mood to fight, and their morale was terribly low.Yan Ming said angrily: "How about this, those who disagree with surrender raise their hands."

This trick is more clever!

No hands were raised.Yan Ming laughed: "That means, everyone agrees to surrender, well, I will go outside to ask for surrender on behalf of everyone."

Standing beside the drummer, Gan Ning kept telling him, "You, keep knocking for a while, don't stop, keep knocking—" The drummer was sweating, and said while beating the drum: "But general, that's enough for now. Gan Ning smacked his lips and said, "Why don't you get the hang of it? I told you to play a little longer, so you can play a little longer." I thought, should I give them more time to think about it? There are too few three-way drums. Give Wutong.

Zhao Yun also regretted it in his heart. He knew that he would give him more time, but the time for the three-way drum was too short.He was very nervous, hoping that Yan Ming would rush out and surrender.

Zhao Yun shouted sharply amid the sound of the drum: "Yan Ming, the time has come. If you don't surrender, I will attack the city. Make up your mind."

A white flag suddenly popped out from the top of the city tower, and Yan Ming stammered: "Don't attack the city, we surrender, surrender." Guo Jia sneered in the middle of the army: "The foolish people, the result is not what I expected."

Funiu Mountain is broken, and going to Runan is Yimapingchuan.Zhao Yun and Cao Jun descended to attack [-] to [-] soldiers, and rushed to Runan City.Xun Yu rushed over with his rear army.Only Lu Su, Zhuge Jin, Meng Gongwei and Le were left in Huainan to stick to it.

Runan besieged the city, Cao Ren stood firm, and urgently asked Cao Cao in Guandu for help.

If the Runan crisis was the first shock to Cao Cao, then the Hulao Pass was the second——

After receiving the order, Guo Yuan began to advance towards Hulao Pass, ready to launch a full-scale offensive.Although he has an army of 10,000+, hundreds of ballistas, thousands of catapults, and countless siege vehicles and toad vehicles, he is still very distressed.Because after Sima Yi was poisoned, the person Cao Cao sent to guard the tiger prison was none other than his uncle Sili Xiaowei Zhong Yao.This old man can't finish taking care of himself at home. It's annoying if he insists on coming out to cause trouble.

Guo Yuan was angry with his uncle, and he kept it in his heart. Zhong Yao couldn't do it. He gave speeches at Hulaoguan every day: "Although Guo Yuan is my nephew, he is a thief from the Yuan family. Don't take care of my face." , If it should be killed, it should be chopped, and whoever kills him will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold."

After Guo Yuan's army arrived at the city, they immediately found it awkward because they couldn't scold them.Usually in siege battles, when you come up, you always have to greet the mother and father of the opposing coach.There is no way to greet Zhong Yao, it is not the same as greeting himself, Guo Yuan is not stupid!
Ever since, he wanted to talk to his uncle.Persuade surrender, yes persuade surrender!
He thought very well, and Zhong Yao still wanted to persuade him to surrender!

The two of them went up and down the city one by one, and behind each of them was a well-equipped armored army.Guo Yuan knew his uncle well, and was afraid that his six relatives would shoot if he didn't recognize him, so he arranged five rows of scull shield soldiers in front of him.The scull shield is the largest shield in ancient times. It is made of thick wood and has a pointed insert at the bottom, which can be inserted into the soil to strengthen the defense.Behind the scull shield soldiers are five rows of strong crossbows, facing the Cao soldiers at the head of the city.This distance is definitely within range.Guo Yuan rode a bay red horse, stood proudly behind the crossbowman, and shouted at Zhong Yao on the top of the wall: "Uncle, Uncle, my nephew Guo Yuan pays his respects."

Zhong Yao rolled his eyes, he brought so many people with machetes and spears to pay his respects!Why does it look like it's coming to see me off.

When Zhong Yao said something, all the civil servants and generals in the city admired him.Zhong Yao flicked his sleeves and said in displeasure: "Okay, okay. Uncle knows your filial piety. After greeting you, take someone back quickly. Let's go." This was dismissed.Han Fu and Meng Tan in the city were astonished, this is really talking and laughing and repelling millions of soldiers, and the ancient God of War is nothing more than the same, too light, like a fly, let's go, let's go!I was driven away.

Guo Yuan was also dumbfounded, what a mess.Why should I leave, the battle hasn't been fought yet.

Guo Yuan's eyes turned to look at his heart, and he took on the look of being a nephew, and said sadly: "Uncle, my nephew came all the way, you have to open the door and invite me in, let's have a cup of tea. If you don't let me in, don't you treat me like a relative."

Zhong Yao's head was burning with anger, inviting you in for tea, that's not to lure wolves into the house, besides, with 20 people, how can I have so many teas to entertain.You want me to open the door and invite you in, I am!

Zhong Yao trembled with anger, pointed at Guo Yuan and cursed: "Gou Shengzi, are you going to go or not? Tell me. Are you listening to uncle?"

Gou Shengzi is Guo Yuan's nickname.The soldiers on both sides immediately burst into loud laughter.

Guo Yuan immediately became angry: "Uncle, you are going too far. After all, I am also the prefect of the Shangdang and an important minister of the state. How can you call me by my nickname?"

"Bah," Zhong Yao, disregarding his status and decency, turned pale and yelled, "Thank you for being able to say it, you are also called an important minister of the country, and the one with the surname Yuan is a traitor, Gou Shengzi, you are worthy of your dead mother, Are you sorry for your uncle and me, did we bring you up just to make you rebel and bring disaster to the country and the people?"

Guo Yuan saw that it was impossible to fight this battle, the uncle relied on the old to sell the old, and one dog wins the other, which is unreasonable, and also humiliated the lord, this is intolerable. "Uncle, don't talk nonsense, who said that the Yuan family is a traitor. General Yuan Xi is the son-in-law of the Han Dynasty. His ancestors have four generations and three princes. They are all extremely human ministers and loyal to the country. They are great loyal ministers. On the contrary, uncle The Cao Cao you follow is a first-class national traitor. Their ancestors were eunuchs without birds, and his father was a corrupt official. He himself bullied the emperor as a treacherous minister and a national traitor. His Majesty the Emperor has issued an edict to punish him. Are you still obsessed with your obsession?" Guo Yuan's words stunned Zhong Yao.Guo Yuan thought he had a plan, so he softened his tone and said: "Uncle, come to my side. There are beauties, gold and silver. General Yuan is sincere and kind-hearted. He is the best lord. You used to follow Cao Cao We will write off all the crimes we have committed. I told him that there is no problem, and our relationship is still good. How to surrender?"
