Invincible Three Kingdoms System

Chapter 416 Flooding Ye City
After the general was ready, Zhao Qian gathered Xu Chu and Tai Shici and led the army to Jizhou.

At this time, Yecheng in Jizhou had been surrounded by Xu Huang's army. Zhao Qian ordered the army to move soil around the city to form a mountain, and set up a watchtower on it to observe the movement in the city.

Two days later, there was a military academy in Yecheng, shouting to surrender, and ran to Zhao Qian's army, but was caught by the left and right guards, and came to see Zhao Qian.

"Who is here?" Zhao Qian said in a prestige without anger.

The man knelt in front of Zhao Qian and said with a flattering smile: "The villain is the guard of the east gate of Yecheng, named Feng Li, and now he is here to join the general."

Zhao Qian snorted coldly, and said, "Why don't you vote early, why don't you vote late, why are you here to vote at this time! Why, come from the truth!"

"Say!" Zhang Fei yelled even more.

Feng Li was startled, and he dared not lie, so he had to admit: "The younger one was drunk yesterday and missed his inspection duty. The trial law is strict, and he can be beaten twenty times. I really hate him, so I defected to the elder brother." General, I would like to offer a plan to seize the city for the general, in order to avenge my hatred!"

After hearing this, all the generals stared at Feng Li with contempt, and Zhao Qian also had a stern expression.

After a while, Zhao Qian asked lightly: "Since you have come to join this general, tell me, what is your plan to break the city?"

Feng Li said hastily: "The east gate is full of land and there are no stone seals. The general can send someone to dig a tunnel and sneak into the city."

Zhao Qian listened, thought for a while, and it seems that there is no good way at present, so he said: "In this case, I will regard you as the vanguard captain, lead two hundred soldiers, dig tunnels, enter the city and open the gate, if successful , after taking Yecheng, he must worship the general and make him a marquis!"

When Feng Li heard this, he was overjoyed, and quickly said: "The little one will definitely live up to the great general's expectations!"

Therefore, Zhao Qian distributed 200 people to Feng Li, and dug the tunnel quickly after sunset.

In the city of Yecheng, the interrogator was very busy, and after learning of Feng Li's escape, he was even more careful, and he must personally visit the city every night.

That night, when the judge came to the east gate city, he saw that there were no lights outside the city, and he was suspicious. After thinking about it, he became clear, and ordered: "Feng Li, the traitor, will lead the Zhao thief to dig a tunnel." come."

So he ordered people to bring stones, and when Feng Li's tunnel was dug into the city, the judge issued an order, and the stones rolled down, and the poor two hundred soldiers died in the tunnel under Feng Li's leadership.

Hearing this news, Zhao Qian let out a long sigh, and couldn't help feeling more sorry for Yuan Shao. If his servants and generals were to fight against him wholeheartedly, it would be difficult to say the number of winners and losers now.

On the second day, before Zhao Qian and others had come up with a plan to break the city, the sergeant of Feixunying sent news that Yuan Shang led his army to Yecheng after learning that Yin Kai and Juhu were dead and that Handan was lost.

So Zhao Qian withdrew the besieging army, retreated to the shore of Huan River, set up camp and waited for Yuan Shang's reinforcements.

That night, the gate of Yecheng was quietly opened, and a team came out of the city. It was Shenpei who sent to meet Yuan Shang's army, led by the chief secretary Li Fu.

It's just that this team hadn't gone far, when suddenly two cannons rang out and shouts of killing sounded, it was Tai Shici and Xu Huang who each led thousands of soldiers to attack.

Li Fu led the army to resist with all his strength, but they were no match for the two tiger generals. In addition, Zhao Qian came from behind and took the arrows personally. After most of the Yecheng army was killed and injured, they had to retreat to the city and dared not come back.

Seeing this, Zhao Qian did not hesitate, and ordered: "Now Yuan Shang is stationed at Yangping Pavilion, and he is waiting for the soldiers and horses of Yecheng to meet up. We will not set up defenses. We will go to rob the stronghold!"

Besides, Yuan Shang was originally waiting for the soldiers and horses from Yecheng to respond, but it was Zhao Qian's team who didn't want to come. In a panic, he fought in person.

The armies and horses from all walks of life fought in a melee. After a while, Yuan Shang was outmatched, so he led the defeated troops back to the Xishan Xiazhai for a little mediation.

Yuan Shang knew that the camp of Xishan alone could not resist the attack of Zhao Qian's army no matter what, so he found Yin Kui and ordered him to come to Zhao Qian to surrender.

When Zhao Qian saw Yin Kui and listened to what he said, he tried to appease him, pretended to agree, and let Yin Kui go back.

After Yin Kui left, Zhao Qian laughed loudly and said, "The two sons of Yuan Benchu ​​are really the same, it's a pity, it's sad!"

Therefore, Tai Shici and Xu Huang were ordered to lead thousands of elite soldiers to attack the Xishan camp. Yuan Shang did not have any precautions.

Zhao Qian ordered people to send orders to Zhang Yan, ordering him to search for Yuan Shang, regardless of whether he lived or died. After that, he led his army back to Yecheng and continued to attack Jizhou.

Marching past the Zhang River, Guo Jia said: "Master, why not attack with water? Dig the water of the Zhang River to flood the city of Ye."

Zhao Qian nodded, shook his head again, and said: "The trial match is so smart, you will not be fooled, and it may be futile to take precautions."

Guo Jia laughed and said: "Although this person is very wise, he is arrogant. He doesn't pay attention to people. My lord can dig shallow ditches during the day to slow down his heart, and dig deep trenches at night to achieve his goal." achievement!"

So, according to what Guo Jia said, Zhao Qian sent soldiers to dig trenches outside Yecheng.

When the judge was inspecting, he saw Zhao Qianjun digging a ditch, but after seeing the depth, he smiled at the people next to him: "Zhao Qian wants to use the water of the Zhang River to flood the city of Ye, but it's so shallow. , what's the use? Zhao Qian is nothing more than that!"

So, the judge didn't take it seriously, and that night, Zhao Qian sent ten times more troops to dig the trench deep. By dawn, it was two feet deep. Zhao Qian gave an order, and the water of the Zhang River rushed in. Pour into Yecheng.

Then Zhao Qian ordered people to write the words of persuasion on the silk cloth and shoot them into the city with arrows.

What's more, Zhao Qian ordered Yuan Shang's descending army to carry Yuan Shang's seal and ribbon and Jieyue, and shouted outside the city to persuade him to surrender, which made people in the city panic.

Finally, Shen Pei's nephew, Shen Rong, couldn't bear it anymore, opened the west gate, and led Zhao Qian's army into Yecheng.

It's just that before he got close, he met Xu Huang on the road, was captured alive by Xu Huang, and tied him up to see Zhao Qian.

"The city is broken today, what can I say?" Zhao Qian asked.

The examiner stood with his head held high and said, "I have nothing to say."

"Do you know that the one who offered the city was your nephew who judged Rong?" Zhao Qian asked.

The examiner stared at him, and said angrily: "The boy is ignorant, so much so!"

Zhao Qian sighed softly, and asked: "My quality is to judge Zhengnan's wisdom and loyalty. Now that Yecheng has been destroyed, Yuan Shang fled. Would you like to surrender?"

Shen Pei snorted coldly and said: "I am willing to stick to one end, never surrender, never surrender!"

"Do you have a last word?" Zhao Qian asked again.

Shen Pei turned to face north and said: "My lord is in the north, I wish to face north and die!"

Zhao Qian waved his hand and ordered the judges to be escorted out. He sighed: "There are so many famous scholars in Hebei, but it's a pity that the Yuan family doesn't know how to use them. If I can make the most of them, how dare I look to Jizhou!"
