Three Kingdoms: Jiehu becomes stronger from the beginning of Taoyuan's three knots

Chapter 102

In Guanzi City in western Liaoning, Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei had just launched their tenth breakout.

But they were still beaten back by Qiu Liju, and after leaving hundreds of corpses outside the city, they huddled in the city again.

But they didn't get nothing. They captured more than a dozen enemy soldiers and obtained some outside news.

When Gongsun Zan learned that Liu Ce had finally dispatched troops from Beiping, he was so angry and hated!

Why was he angry and resentful when Liu Ce came to rescue him?
Because Liu Ce's army only travels thirty miles a day, it's amazing to play every step of the way!

When Gongsun Zan got the news, he cut off the sword in his hand angrily.

"Liu Ce mistook me! Liu Ce mistook me!"

Gongsun Zan looked up to the sky and sighed, while Liu Bei stood aside and sighed non-stop.

At this moment, Yan Gang walked in with a prisoner who was beaten to death.

"General, there is new news! This person is Qiu Li, who is walking in front of the tent, and he has very important news..."

Hearing this, Gongsun Zan immediately turned around, dropped the broken sword in his hand, and walked quickly to the man.

"Give you a chance to live! Tell me quickly, what's the important news?"

The man raised his head with difficulty, looked at Gongsun Zan pleadingly, and then said in a weak voice.

"We are going to retreat...we are going to retreat..."

Gongsun Zan frowned when he heard this, he grabbed the man by the collar and asked viciously.

"You retreat? When?"

The man slowly shook his head, already exhaling more and taking in less.

Before Gongsun Zan could ask another question, the man died.

Seeing this situation, Gongsun Zan became angry on the spot.

"Yan Gang! What did you do? Just this useful guy, why did you kill me?"

Yan Gang looked embarrassed, frowning tightly and standing there not knowing how to answer.

Liu Bei hurried up to persuade at this time.

"General, if what this person said is true, then we should have made preparations early!"

After hearing this, Yan Gang turned to look at Liu Bei.

"Have you prepared early? You mean, we have to continue chasing Qiu Liju?"

Liu Bei nodded slowly, then looked at Gongsun Zan expectantly.

Gongsun Zan understood what Liu Bei meant. If Qiu Liju retreated, there must be a situation where he had to retreat.

But what happened?

If you attack rashly when the intelligence of the enemy and the enemy is unknown, it may not be as simple as being trapped in an isolated city!

The word "annihilation" suddenly appeared in Gongsun Zan's mind.

No, absolutely not to take that risk.

With the thousands of people in his hand, that was his last capital.

If all these people are really included, then what will be used to fight Liu Yu and Liu Ce brothers in the future?
"Xuande, I think it's better to be cautious. Let's take some people to interrogate the captured prisoners and see if we can find out whether Qiu Liju's retreat is genuine or not."

Knowing what Gongsun Zan meant, Liu Bei couldn't help but secretly feel sad.

"Okay, I'm going now..."

After saying this, Liu Bei immediately strode out.

Yan Gang looked at Liu Bei's back, a look of worry flashed in his eyes.

"My lord, Liu Bei is not convinced!"

After hearing this, Gongsun Zan raised his hand slightly, and looked back at Liu Bei's back with a vigilant expression.

"It's good to know some things, you don't need to say it."

After hearing this, Yan Gang slowly clenched his fists, and then followed Gongsun Zan to walk quickly in another direction.

Ten days later, in front of Shanhaiguan.

Liu Ce's army is already all cavalry, and it is dragged down because there is no supply team.

So it took only ten days to bypass Lulong City and arrive in front of Shanhaiguan.

It was late at night when they arrived, and the defense of the rebels was very lax.

Huang Zhong led people to observe for a while, and then took the initiative to ask Ying to cheat the door.

Liu Ce has full confidence in Huang Zhong!

He was able to defeat Guan Yu when he was old, but now he is at the peak of his fighting power in his prime.

If Huang Zhong and Guan Yu were to fight again now, it would be hard to say who would win and who would lose!
Therefore, whenever Huang Zhong took the initiative to ask for a fight, Liu Ce always approved it.

Of course, the results every time have never let him down.

Huang Zhong led three hundred soldiers and managed to swindle the door open, and then they rushed into Shanhaiguan like a pack of hungry wolves.

Zhao Yun and Tian Yu, who were in charge of support outside, took advantage of the vacancy and cooperated with Huang Zhong to successfully take down Shanhaiguan.

At midnight, Liu Ce and others had finished cleaning the battlefield and left the pass with the rebels' food, grass, gold and silver.

At dawn the next day, the reinforcements of the rebels rushed to the pass.

But at this time Liu Ce and others had long since disappeared without a trace!
In yesterday's battle, there were only escaped soldiers, and no living prisoners.

So the rebels still haven't fully understood where the army beat them last night!

A captain looked at the captain with a sad face and asked.

"My lord, if General Zhang wants to ask a question, how should we answer it?"

The captain's face was also very ugly at the moment, but he made a decision soon.

"Let's just say that horse thieves robbed the pass, and find a few dead guys to serve as insiders!"

The deputy captain heard the words and immediately followed up with a flattery, and then the two led the army to quickly take over the customs defense of Shanhaiguan.

At the same time, Liu Ce and others left Shanhaiguan and headed north.

Four days later at night, Zhao Yun and Tian Yu's [-] vanguard troops arrived near Liucheng first.

Zhao Yun and Tian Yu reined in their horses and began to order the soldiers to rest and eat.

"General Zilong, how do you plan to fight this battle?"

Tian Yu looked at Liucheng not far away while nibbling dry food and asked.

Zhao Yun frowned slightly, and there was a hint of ruthlessness and determination in his eyes.

"It's just Liucheng, you and me plus more than a thousand brothers, do you need any plans?"

Tian Yu listened to Zhao Yun's words very much.

"How magnificent! General Zilong is really full of courage! A certain Tian Yu is willing to be the vanguard and rush to the front of the array!"

After hearing this, Zhao Yun shook his head slowly and said.

"There's no need to be reckless, just change this uniform!"

As he spoke, Zhao Yun ordered someone to hand Tian Yu a rebel uniform.

These costumes were specially brought out by Liu Ce in the armory when they attacked Shanhaiguan.

"The lord has an order, ordering us to wash white stripes on our right arms as a sign, and pretend to be rebels to sneak into Liucheng. After half an hour, the lord's army will kill us!"

Zhao Yun started to change clothes as he said that, Tian Yu was shocked immediately.

"It turns out that the lord has already considered this matter? Submit it, I really did!"

Zhao Yun said with a smile after hearing this.

"There are [-] defenders in Liucheng. If they can't defend, we cavalry may not be able to take it in the first half of the year."

While Tian Yu said it was reasonable, he began to put the rebel uniform on himself neatly.

A quarter of an hour later, Zhao Yun and Tian Yu led the people to slowly arrive in front of Liucheng.

When Tian Yu went to knock on the door, the soldiers on the city knew that someone had come to the city.

The cold wind was blowing and the snowflakes were falling, and it was impossible to hear the words shouted up and down the city wall.

Therefore, the school captain who guarded the city simply led someone to open the city gate directly.

"It's the middle of the night, where did you get your troops from? Do you have an order from General Zhang?"
