The Three Kingdoms: Summoned generals at the beginning, shocking Cao Cao

Chapter 377 The Battle of Langya, at the Wind Gate

Du Yu killed all the people. He chopped off countless heads along the way, and he chopped off all the way to the outside of Langya City.Guo Huai was one step ahead of him and had already fought with the defenders on the outskirts of Langya.After receiving Du Yu's reinforcements, Guo Huai's pressure was greatly reduced, and he asked his men to start building fortifications, and was ready to attack the city when the artillery was brought up.

"General Du, the northward new army and the rebel army fought at Xiaoqimen, so we can't continue northward for the time being." Chi Taining said to Du Yu.

Hearing what he said, Du Yu just nodded and said to Guo Huai, "Brother, we are the only ones who arrived on time. The other two armies haven't arrived yet, so let's rest where we are."

Guo Huai also agrees with him. Although they have a lot of people in total, they have set up a large number of fortifications just around the periphery of Langya these days.I only have field artillery and no heavy artillery on my side, so it is difficult to launch an attack on the city.

Resting in place now and waiting for the other two reinforcements is the best way.

In Langya City, there are a full 30 elite guarding the city, and weapons and equipment are continuously transported from Xuzhou by sea.The heavy fog for several days made it difficult for the Bohai Navy to find the whereabouts of the rebel fleet at sea.

"Report! Two generals, the special envoy sent by Mr. Zhang, the left servant of the Ministry of War, is already out of the account."

Hearing that someone from the Ministry of War was coming, Du Yu and Guo Huai hurried out to meet him.Anyone else, with Du Yu's temper, would definitely not do this.But Zhang Chenghua is different. He is an old man in the Ministry of War and Liu Bian's earliest team member.

After Liu Bian landed from Yizhou, Zhang Chenghua was the vanguard general of the right army at that time, attacking cities and villages along the way, destroying the dead and the dead.The Sun family's army was wiped out by him, and now that Zhang Chenghua has rushed to the outside of Langya City, it must be that the situation here is much worse than Du Yu and the others expected.

"The last general, Du Yu, has met your lord!" Du Yu respectfully saluted Zhang Chenghua.

Guo Huai bowed beside him and said, "The last general, Guo Huai, has met your lord!"

Zhang Chenghua was an old acquaintance with him, and he could even be regarded as half of his teacher. When he was a member of the military department, he often asked Zhang Chenghua for advice.

"You two generals don't need to be polite. I'm here with His Royal Highness the Prince's handwriting." After saying that, he entered the camp, unfolded Liu Hao's handwriting and started reading.

Du Yu and Guo Huai hurriedly knelt down, they knew that using Zhang Chenghua to read the prince's handbook was definitely not a trivial matter.

"Zhang Chenghua, the left servant of the Ministry of War, is the commander-in-chief of the Langya campaign. Du Yu and Guo Huai are the left and right vanguard generals. Shi Xinghe is the general of the rear army, and Wei Liang is the general of the central army. All generals are requested to work together to wipe out the rebels as soon as possible. In addition, Your Majesty is now in On the battlefield of Langya, I hope you can find His Majesty as soon as possible."

Du Yu and Guo Huai looked at each other with horror, Liu Bian was here in Langya's complicated situation.Even the imperial court didn't know his situation, which made Du Yu very worried about Liu Bian's safety.

His new army defeated Yuan Hongyang in a devastating manner in Jizhou, but when they fought against the rebels in Qingzhou, Yuan Hongyang's Qingzhou rebels were able to fight them back and forth.

Although the city had already been broken, both Rong Xia and Yuan Hongyang ran back to Langya.

"Master Zhang, what do you think is going to happen next?" Du Yu said to Zhang Chenghua.

Zhang Chenghua said: "You can figure it out, let me know if you have something to do. I'm just here to make a name, and I'm afraid that you won't be able to cooperate with each other. But there is something that needs to be done immediately.

Immediately look for His Majesty's whereabouts, and must ensure His Majesty's safety. "

"The last will obey!"

At this time, Liu Bian was living a good life, eating roasted hares, and studying the next course of action with Song Ran and Di Cang. They had already reached the outer edge of Fengmen, but there were too many defenders there.

He didn't dare to launch an attack rashly. With this little manpower, he could fight a guerrilla.If you really go to attack the wind gate, I'm afraid you even have to get in.

"My lord, I'll take someone in to have a look at it at night." Di Cang said while gnawing on the rabbit meat.

Liu Bian wiped the oil on his hands and said, "Well, you take people to the front to ambush. As long as there is a transport team coming out, kill them and pay attention to leaving a few alive. Don't let them know too deliberately, the imperial army nearby."

"I understand." Di Cang turned and left.

Seeing that there was no one else, Song Ran said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Zhang Chenghua has arrived in Langya, and His Royal Highness asked him to be the commander in chief of the campaign. Shi Xinghe's troops are not far away from Langya, and Wei Liang's army has arrived at the predetermined position."

Liu Bian lowered his head and picked up a piece of wood and stuffed it into the fire: "Leave this battle to Zhang Chenghua and the others. Let's take these people around Langya."

After a pause, Liu Bian continued: "Send a letter to Zhang Chenghua, and I won't join the team. Let him end the battle as soon as possible and go south to Xuzhou to suppress the rebellion."

"Yes!"

Di Cang led his men to ambush in the mountains, and he did wait for the rebels' horse transport team.Instructed his subordinates to intercept and kill them, and deliberately let a few people escape.Bringing the seized materials back to Liu Bian greatly supplemented the parties.

Now that the sky is getting dark, Liu Bian wants to make a big splash, light a big fire at the Fengmen Gate, and run away with his people.

Dicang led his men and quietly touched the door near Fengfeng.The sentries along the way were dealt with by them with short knives without making any sound.Now in Fengmenkou Village, the rebels are loading vehicles. In the evening, the supplies were robbed, and they are now going to send troops to escort them.

The guard at Fengmenkou is Wen Chengping, who was formerly the guard of the East China Sea, and now Wang Fan entrusts him with important tasks, and Wang Fan's second uncle Wang Yuanwei is in charge of Fengmenkou affairs.

"Is the distance enough?" Di Cang asked in a low voice.

The subordinate's confidant probed to estimate the distance to the material warehouse: "Almost."

"Get ready, calculate the time to shoot." Di Cang asked everyone to prepare explosives and wait for the order to throw them.

Seeing that the explosive packs in everyone's hands were ready, Di Cang said, "Pull the fire, wait for my order."

In order to prevent the flames of the fuse from being seen by the rebels, they prepared several military uniforms in advance to cover them up.Calculating that the time was almost up, Di Cang shouted loudly: "Throw!"

More than a dozen explosive packs were thrown into the wind gate, and exploded as soon as they touched the ground, igniting a large amount of materials piled on the ground.Waking Wang Yuanwei up from his sleep, he hurried out of the room and saw flames everywhere.

Wen Chengping has arranged for people to chase Dicang and the others, and the rest of them are busy putting out the fire.Fortunately, the loss was not large, and no important materials were damaged.

Only a dozen people were killed and several others were burned.

Seeing Wang Yuanwei approaching, Wen Chengping cupped his hands and said: "My lord, it must be the daytime government army attacking, I have already sent people to chase after it."

Wang Yuanwei nodded: "Take precautions. If the official army really arrived, they would have launched an attack long ago. It must be another trick of the suspect."

Liu Bian in the distance heard the explosion, and then saw flames everywhere.Let Song Ran take people to meet Di Cang and the others, and then they have to hurry up and run away.

As a material transfer point, Fengmenkou still has a lot of horses.Once you get entangled, it is dangerous.
