Chapter 306
Ji Ling was rough and blunt, and had a good relationship with most of Yuan Shu's colleagues, both civil and military, but although he was strict in running the army, he was one of the few generals under Yangzhou Mu's command who were known to be able to conquer and fight well. He was also extremely protective of his weaknesses, and he was well respected in the army. Now when the news of his death spread throughout the battalion.
Yuan Shujun, who was on the expedition, only felt that the sky was falling.

"The county lieutenant is dead? Impossible!"

"Didn't you save him from that bearded spear that day?"

"Hateful! It's a pity that our county lieutenant was so loyal that he died in a foreign land!"

"I heard that the captain of Yejun died of serious injuries that night. Lord Yan kept the army's morale stable and kept the mourning secret. No wonder I always felt a faint strange smell when I passed by. This summer is only two or three days. It stinks."

"The county lieutenant is gone, shall we retire?"

"Hey, don't talk nonsense, since the governor of the king has come, the two armies will join forces, so naturally they want to capture Tangyi, dig out the head of the bearded general, and avenge the county lieutenant."

"Wang Inspector? That hairy boy?" The voice of the speaker became lower and lower, and the expressions of the audience also expressed disapproval.

Not long after, the mourning hall was set up, and Wang Zheng looked up at the sky, gloomily almost dripping water.

Ji Ling's body was lying in the coffin, placed in front of him, everyone, and the entire army.

Blood soaked half of his body, and after a few days, it coagulated into black and red blood clots.

Wang Zheng stared at the soldier, his face still had remnants of anger and unwillingness, Wang Zheng seemed to see him in front of the bed that night, lifelike.

Just not breathing.

I'm sorry, brother Fu Yi, I borrow the king to strengthen the army's morale.

After bowing his hands in his heart and apologizing, the next moment, Wang Zheng showed his acting skills again.

In the eyes of the onlookers, it was Wang Zheng who seemed to stare at Ji Ling's corpse for a long while, then stumbled and backed away from Ji Ling's corpse, as if he couldn't bear to see Ji Junwei's miserable state again, and then Wang Zheng supported his chest with a pained look on his face, and immediately looked up to the sky and spit out a mouthful of blood, looking furious.

"General!"

"The governor of the king!"

This scene frightened the people around, and they all showed concern. The soldiers in the distance were also stunned. They were all standing on tiptoes, and when they wanted to see clearly, they saw Wang Zheng turn around abruptly. body, only heard a "clang", and the sword was drawn out of its sheath.

Seeing that Wang Zheng's eyes were red at this time, and there was even a faint glint of water, Yan Xiang was still a little dazed even though he knew that the other party's behavior was to arouse the excitement of the crowd.

Is this too much like that?

He thought that Wang Zheng was just going to howl in pain, but now he saw that the other party's approach seemed to be more effective.

"Inspector Wang, what are you going to do?" Yan Xiang stepped forward cooperatively, as if he saw something was wrong, he stretched out his hand to pull.

puff!
Seeing Wang Zheng slammed it hard, he quickly let go of his pull. It seemed that he had used all his strength, and he almost fell down.

Hiss, is this guy serious?With so much strength?

While Yan Xiang was cursing secretly, he didn't know that if Wang Zheng really used his feet, he would be a mere scholar, his fate would definitely not be anything.

"I'm going to kill that Zhang Yide!"

Wang Zheng yelled again, as if a thunder had exploded in mid-air, and everyone's ears were ringing in the entire army, inexplicably terrified.

The governor of Wangzheng has such a good relationship with our county lieutenant?

To be so angry?

At this time, not only everyone in Yuan Jun was secretly surprised, but many people were already saddened by Ji Ling's death. At this time, under the guidance of Wang Zhenggao's charismatic empathy, they were infected by him, their eyes immediately turned red, and they all clenched tightly. Weapons in hand.

"Inspector Wang, don't be overly sad and lose your mind!" Yan Xiang pounced on a tiger, stopped Wang Zheng again, and shouted, "There are many soldiers in Tangyi and the city is strong. If you want to attack, you need to think long-term."

"Lieutenant Ji's great hatred is not only because of your heartache, but who in our Yangzhou army is not gnashing his teeth, wanting to eat the flesh of that Yanren!"

"A long-term plan?" Wang Zheng looked desperately struggling, but it seemed that he couldn't get rid of Yan Xiang who was as immovable as a mountain in front of him. He turned his head directly, stared at Yan Xiang, and said painfully:

"Mr. Yan, you and other literati are not involved in killing, how do you know the friendship between our generation of soldiers?"

"On the battlefield, let's live and die in front of us, but what about behind us?" Wang Zheng stared at Yan Xiang, as if he was talking to him, and even more like shouting at the whole army.

"The one who protects us from hidden guns and cold arrows is soon to be a brother in our army!"

"Brother Fu Yi died tragically for my robe." At this time, Wang Zheng's eyes were bloodshot, full of grief and hatred: "Let that Zhang Fei live one more day, I was the one who took the robe first." righteous!"

"Still thinking about it in the long run?"

As he said that, Wang Zheng looked directly at the whole army and shouted: "Brother Fu Yi loves soldiers like sons, and has always treated you brothers well. Let me talk about it, would you like to have a long-term plan?"

"I don't want to wait for a moment!"

"Swear to kill Zhang thief!"

"Revenge for the county lieutenant!"

In an instant, the whole audience changed from the tens of thousands of soldiers in ambush to full of anger. Everyone roared, their voices were shrill, resounding through the sky, and a chilling atmosphere immediately permeated the whole camp. In this atmosphere, the brave are inspired and the cowards are energized.

"This..." Yan Xiang was so yelled at that he couldn't tell the truth from the fake, so he had to change his tone immediately: "Then let's make arrangements today and attack tomorrow!"

"Wang Inspector, although the hatred will be avenged, it is impossible to act rashly!"

After a while, under the gaze of the audience, Wang Zheng seemed to calm down. He turned around again, walked up to Ji Ling's corpse and stood silently for a while. He bowed and bowed three times without saying a word.

"Brother Fu Yi, just watch from the sky."

He said coldly.

In 195 AD, at the end of May of the second year of Xingping in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

At this time, it was very close to the first year of Jian'an when Cao Cao met the emperor and took the emperor to make the princes.

Guangling County, Tangyi City.

Looking at the enemy army rushing again, Zhao Yu, the prefect of Guangling who had just come here to celebrate the victory because of the great victory, his eyelids twitched and he gasped as he watched from the city wall.

I saw a forest of halberds and spears, a stream of chariots and horses, everyone's face was cold, and they were setting up their positions in an orderly manner.

The most special thing is that in Zhao Yu's eyes, there are endless armies in front of and behind the city, all of which are plain, full of white flags, and have a cold and murderous air.

Even the sunlight seems to be affected by this horrific and tragic scene. In this midsummer world, when it shines on the human body, it actually carries a bone-penetrating chill, giving people a deep chill.

"What's more, a thief has the heart to fight to the death." Even though he didn't know anything about military affairs, Zhao Yu still sighed like this immediately.

When he was in Guangling City that day, he got good news from the two counties almost in tandem. What's more interesting is that the reason for his victory was that the two Sima Guan Yu and Zhang Fei killed him in the battle with Yuan Shujun. He dismounted, and then charged and killed countless beheads.

Of course, the fly in the ointment is that compared with Guan Yu's route, Yuan Shu's army was directly defeated and fled in all directions. Although the enemy generals on Tangyi's side were also defeated by Zhang Fei, they were rescued by their own guards, which caused Tangyi The crisis of soldiers approaching the city is only temporarily resolved, and the enemy has not retreated, and there are still hidden worries after all.

However, Zhang Fei expressed confidence in his letter that if he ate his spear, even if he did not die on the spot, he would only survive for a few days, and the enemy army would soon collapse without attacking.

The first point, looking at the current appearance of the armed forces, proves that Zhang Yide's self-confidence is indeed no problem, but the latter point...
Zhao Yu had the urge to support his forehead and sigh. The death of the general didn't seem to have caused Yuan Jun's morale to slump and his army's morale to collapse.
After watching Yuan Jun's solemn appearance, Zhao Yu turned his head and looked into the city. Above and below the city wall, messengers were galloping on horseback, and flags of various colors were flying everywhere.It was full of command shouts from officers at all levels.

Yesterday, because of the grace of the general Zhang Fei, after the whole army celebrated, many soldiers with hangovers and confusion on their faces rubbed their eyes in groups, holding weapons and carrying defensive equipment, running along the bridleway to the scheduled destination. combat position.

Since Liu Bei became state herdsman, many of the Xuzhou army have been changed to Shangchi, and the prefect Zhao Yu was appointed by him personally, so it can be seen that he is a confidant. At this time, Guangling County has the most red armor in the three counties of Xuzhou. Looking at it, it looks like a torrent of red, converging in all directions until the entire city wall is covered with red.

Tangyi City is not very big, and as early as the beginning, when discussing with Zhang Fei to use this place as the most important line of defense, and also the only line of defense, most of the few residents in the city were transferred first except for the young and strong. Looking around the city, almost all the soldiers are strong and brave. As for the remaining young and strong civilians, they have basically become first-class auxiliary soldiers at this moment, serving as natural defensive reserves in Zhang Fei's plan.

On the northwest corner of the city wall, stands a tall tower, which is used for observation and is also the headquarters of the current Tangyi to some extent.

When walking over, Zhao Yu could see the cold light flashing from the spears and spears of the soldiers guarding the palace from a distance before he got close to him.

Between them, a three-foot-tall flag was set up, and it fluttered in the wind. On it was written in black on a red background: You Yan Kuang Zhang Zhang.

Arriving in front of the pagoda, Zhao Yu straightened the armor on his chest, and was just about to step in, but when he crossed the threshold, his steps stopped.

He smelled the stench of alcohol, and even heard thunderous snoring.

This.
He was dazed for a while, looked at the guard at the door, and asked in disbelief: "Didn't you celebrate the victory the day before yesterday? Why is Zhang Sima now?"

"Didn't you, the prefect, bring the news of General Guan's victory over the enemy?" The guards looked at each other, and one looked at Zhao Yu with a bewildered expression, and said in a low voice: "The master said in the middle of the night last night that he would make another lunch for this." Have a drink."

What Youyan lunatic, I think it should be called Youyan drunkard!
"What do you guys do?" Zhao Yu felt resentful, and couldn't help being furious: "Sima is drunk and unconscious, but the enemy army is about to attack the city, why don't you wake him up immediately?"

"Little" the two guards said nonuo authentically: "The villain dare not." '

"Zhou Mu, the master has already ordered that if it is not an urgent matter, anyone who dares to disturb his dream will be rewarded with a whip!"

"It's such a critical moment, is it alright?" Zhao Yu pointed at them, trembling with anger.

The two soldiers didn't dare to talk back and refute, but the expressions on their faces clearly said that the soldiers were just approaching the city, and it was not an attack, but it was an attack, and it was impossible to come down in one wave?
"Don't wake up Sima immediately!"

After waiting for a long time, Zhang Fei did not appear, so Zhao Yu had no choice but to arrange it himself, and ordered the cavalry to assemble first, and the equipment was put in place one after another.

Turning his head and looking outside the city, he saw that Yuan Jun had walked to the middle of the horseway, the nest carts for observation had already been set up, and teams of cavalry were galloping back and forth outside the moat, setting off smoke and dust.

After the cavalry, a phalanx of more than a dozen hundred men organized and snatched the flying bridge used to cross the moat on the east side.

Do you want to take advantage of Yuan Jun's unstable foothold and use cavalry to attack a wave first?

Zhao Yu thought about it, he had never been in the army, but he had read history books intensively, so he also knew the truth of "softness cannot be defended". What's more, the enemy has become a mourner now, if they stick to their defense, it will be easier to fuel their arrogance.

"Is Zhang Sima awake yet?" Zhao Yu couldn't make up his mind for a while, so he turned his head to the left and right and said, "Go and urge me!"

Before he finished speaking, he saw that the face of the guard beside him changed drastically, and he said directly: "Master, look quickly."

Zhao Yu turned his head at the sound and looked around, but saw a young general riding out from the city at this time, and beside him was a cavalryman holding a general's flag.

With a wave of the boy's hand, the flag moved in the wind, drawing a short and sharp straight line between the confrontation between the two armies.

"kill!"

In an instant, the five or six thousand people in the city shouted almost in unison. It was really deafening, and the mountains and valleys echoed.

I saw swords and guns covering the field, smoke and dust filled the air, semaphores flying on the nest towers several feet high, and flying bridges controlled by strong men were pushed to the river, opened and folded, and built on the river.Behind them, more than a dozen chariots were ready to go, and behind them, countless infantry lined up, with dazzling swords and guns, and a team of dozens of rangers patrolled the surrounding area, and the sound of drums beating resounded through the sky.

Seeing the momentum of the enemy army, Zhao Yu was terrified.

A soldier in the distance also seemed to be shocked, and could not help but muttered:
"Grandma, this aura is completely different from the previous few days, are they from the same group of Yuan Jun?"

"Master, master! Something is wrong!"

"Tie Yuan has entered the city!"

A flustered voice pulled Zhang Fei out of his sleep. He didn't hear clearly, so he couldn't help scolding angrily: "It's so noisy, is it itchy?"

The hall fell silent for an instant, and the few guards were so frightened that they didn't dare to take a breath.

Zhang Fei touched his head.

I did drink a little too much last night, which actually gave me a rare headache.

"What were you shouting about just now?" Zhang Fei asked with a shout as he got up in his clothes.

After the personal guard repeated it in a low voice, Zhang Fei jumped up in shock. He couldn't believe it: "What did you say?"

"The city is broken, my lord. Today the thieves are attacking the city very violently. A young general even took the lead in the charge. He captured the eastern part of the city in almost an instant. Then he single-handedly charged towards the city gate and directly lowered the drawbridge."

"Where is Governor Zhao Yu now?"

"died."

"What?" Zhang Fei stood up, only one thought kept resounding in his mind.

Once the hall is lost, Guangling's door is completely opened, and Yuan Jun can drive straight in.
Now that even Zhao Yu is dead, this
Don't panic, he said to himself, there is still a chance, the enemy has just broken through the city!

"Get my armor!" He touched the Zhangba Snake Spear beside the bed, and drank directly: "What are you afraid of, I'm still here, immediately dispatch all departments to rescue the city gate together with this general!"

"It's too late, master." The guards lamented again and again: "The bandit army is coming fiercely today, everyone is brave and fearless. Listen, the sound of galloping horseshoes is everywhere."

"The enemy's cavalry has entered the city!"

Zhang Fei's hands trembled when he heard the words, and he immediately held his breath and concentrated.

Sure enough, what he heard was not only the sound of horseshoes, but also the screams of countless people, especially the familiar accents of many of them. It was clearly the elites that the eldest brother brought to Xuzhou from the plains.

Zhang Fei came to the outside of the hall with a few big strides, and immediately saw that the hall was already on fire, and the screams were shaking.

He looked into the distance and saw flesh and blood flying across the city gate.

Looking around, you can see thousands of troops and horses coming straight to the bones.

And just a few days ago, he had just stabbed the enemy's coach off the horse and won a great victory, and he was convinced that sooner or later the thieves would retreat without success because the dragons had no leader.

As a result, in the blink of an eye, the victory and defeat were reversed, and everything was reversed!

Zhang Fei looked miserable, collapsed on the ground, and muttered: "It's all over now."

Even in the midst of thousands of troops, he is still confident that he can fight his way out, not to mention the hero Youyan, who was ever afraid of death?

Zhang Fei is desperate
Tang Yi was lost and Zhao Yu died.
Even if he went out of the city, what face would he have to meet his elder brother?
 I may have to wander in different places for a long time. . .depressed
