A general, who was only seven feet tall and had a somewhat ugly face, was embarrassed.

"General Zilian, our army set out with only 5000 soldiers. In this mountain forest, those who were injured by traps, those attacked by wild animals at night, those who fell into the cliff when walking the steep mountain path three days ago, and those who died of illness and so on. In total, more than 800 brothers were killed and wounded. A group of brothers should be left to take care of the wounded. The largest number of 4000 people who can go to war should be dealt with Gao Shun Are there any... "

"Don't worry, we've brought a lot of brave and strong people who have been selected by thousands of people, enough to be ten. Moreover, the battlefield is ultimately dominated by the armies of Yuan Shu and Liu He, and we are only assisting from the side. Meng de has already arranged this matter, so Wen Qian should not worry about it. "

The short general raised his eyebrows and said, "my Lord is wise, our army will win this battle."

"Well, I'll be careful. Some military strategists expected that Yuan Shu had nearly 100000 troops. Gao Shun and others had played around these days. If there was no accident, they would have a real decisive battle tomorrow. Without our help, Yuan Shu's army would be defeated this time. "

"General Cao is right. The general will be happy to enter the war tomorrow. It is up to the general to dispatch him."

"Tell the brothers to eat and drink well tonight, have a good rest, and then cut down a thick tree trunk to be used as a tool for smashing. Tomorrow, we will do our best to kill the enemy with Cao Hong and do meritorious deeds."

The next day, the sun was not far from the middle of the sky.

Ji Ling in the west of Luoyang City and Lei book outside Hulao pass are very strange to see that no one is attacking today.

At first, they thought there was a conspiracy, so they did not dare to act rashly. At this time, the armies on both sides could not restrain themselves.

"After all, they have few soldiers, and they must be exhausted after fighting for days. Therefore, it is difficult for them to fight again today. It is time for our army to attack."

The two men finally summoned up courage, led the army, and launched the attack again.

Although the morale of the soldiers has reached the extreme, but "there must be brave men under the heavy reward". After a reward promise from the two generals, most of the soldiers still mentioned some fighting will.

Ji Ling led his army to attack the city of Luoyang. Zhao Yun, Deng yuan, and Da Meng went out of the city to attack and kill from time to time, which really made Jiling's army headache.

On the city wall, Xun Yu and Cui Jun came to supervise the war.

Cui Jun confidently said: "Ji Ling thought his trick was so clever. A small group of troops pretended to take a detour to attack Nanmen. After that, the large troops still stormed the west gate. It was thanks to him to make such a clumsy move."

Xunzi said: "today's World War I wiped out most of the main forces in Yuzhou. After the Spring Festival, most of the troops in Jizhou could be destroyed by the plan of the Lord. By then, the strength of our army will be strengthened, and the soldiers will be divided into two parts, one from Hebei and the other from Henan. Then the situation of the world will be clear, and no one can compete with him. The revival of the Han Dynasty is just around the corner. "

He said this, and people were boiling with enthusiasm.

At this time, however, a soldier came running from the east side of the wall.

"General Gao, the east gate of the city, suddenly a team of men and horses came to attack the city!"

They were surprised.

"Is there any loss in Hulao pass?" Cui Jun asked.

Gao Shun asked the soldier, "how many enemy troops?"

"General Hui, the enemy troops are only about 4000 troops, all of them are infantry, and they have no armor at all. Their weapons are also swords, spears, swords and halberds. It's just a thick tree trunk for the siege. "

"Trunk?"

Now we all added a bit of surprise.

Deng yuan guessed: "is it a kind of mountain bandit nearby?"

Zhao Yun nodded his head and said, "Ziyang, you are right. This is not an army. South of the city is a continuous mountain range, or mountain bandits see the war outside the city, take advantage of the opportunity to rob

Xunzi shook his head again and again: "no way. After the Lord occupied Luoyang, he sent many troops to sweep away the banditry around Luoyang and Chang'an. The county soldiers and county soldiers of each county in Sili often went out for inspection. Even if there were still some fish that escaped the net and only a few thousand people, how dare they stay near Luoyang? After the LORD came, no matter in the city or in the countryside, he never heard of bandits plundering. How can mountain bandits survive? "

He bowed his head and asked the soldier, "how is the enemy's fighting power?"

The soldier recalled and said, "these soldiers are all strong and swift, and they are led by two bandit leaders who command and dispatch in a good way. However, all the startling crossbows in the east gate are transferred to the west gate. There are only a thousand soldiers guarding the city. They are afraid that they will be lost soon. Please send reinforcements to the general and the military division as soon as possible."

"These thieves are so brave. Please send me 500 cavalry, and I will surely kill them all!" Deng Yuanyi, with his long spear, volunteered.

"Don't be rash." Xunzi stopped him.

"The other party is obviously well prepared. These four thousand people are by no means idle. All our troops and horses have been engaged in the battle and have no spare time. Now the war situation is just in our army's favor. The sudden killing of these people must have something to do with Yuzhou. "

He narrowed his eyes and thought: "since the Luoyang rebellion, most of the things have been planned by someone behind the scenes. This person must have figured out the current situation of the war, and he is more aware of the shortage of troops in Luoyang City. There are only about 20000 soldiers and horses available in our city. If we want to deal with this strange soldier with considerable combat power, we must kill them in large groups before we can solve them in the shortest time. However, this will increase the morale of the enemy in Ximen and do great harm to me. "Zhao Yun said: "our army is so elite, is it that more than a thousand troops are not enough to deal with such a lack of soldiers and less armour?"

At this time, Cui Jun replied, "Luoyang is surrounded by the Yellow River, Hulao pass, Hangu pass, and mountains. Mengjin port and hulaoguan pass are still under the control of our army. Although Hangu pass was lost a few days ago, Ji Ling did not send troops to garrison it. Therefore, our army can still grasp its dynamic situation, and the influx of 4000 troops and horses is absolutely impossible to conceal the sight of the scouts. Therefore, there is only one direction in which they come. "

After he said so, everyone was shocked.

"Is it that Did they come across the mountains to the south? "

Cui Jun nodded his head and said, "this is the only way to do it. These four thousand men must have been chosen by the people behind the scenes. The purpose is to force our army to separate troops to annihilate them. If the enemy seeks chaos, we should seek stability. As long as we stabilize the situation and destroy the main force of Ji Ling on the west side, the battle will be a great victory. Therefore, in the east gate, the key point is to stop, not to suppress. It's better to send 500 archers and 800 infantry to help defend the city. As long as you make it difficult to break through the city gate, everything will be fine. "

Hearing this, Gao Shun immediately issued a military order.

At the east gate of Luoyang City, lejin and Cao Hong, who had been charging in front of them, secretly ran to one side.

Lejin wondered: "although the defense in the city is obviously strengthened, it has not taken the initiative to attack. It shows that there are not many reinforcements transferred to this gate. I'm afraid this plan will not succeed. What can we do?"

Cao Hong was also worried: "the names of Xunzi and Cui Jun are true. We can't break the East Gate's defense now. This is troublesome..."

He frowned and thought for a long time, and suddenly patted his head: "how can I forget that before leaving, Mende had discussed many countermeasures with all the military advisers, and then gave me a brocade bag to ask me to act according to the plan."

He took out some of his left, right and left. As expected, he found a brocade bag and took out the letters.

"Ha ha, Meng de and all the military masters are really talented. How could I not have thought of such a simple method?"
