There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

There is no such way to slip people!

Damn it, at worst, I will quit my job!

The princes in Guanzhong scoffed at each other and no longer obeyed Zhong Yao's call. At worst, they would surrender to the potters after Chang'an was conquered.

If the stalemate continues back and forth like this, what year and month will it be?

After Zhong Yao's messenger was sent out, there was no movement from the princes in Guanzhong for a long time, which made him very anxious, but there was nothing he could do.

Because of the current thoughts of the princes in Guanzhong, he can more or less figure out some of them.

But even if he could figure it out, there was nothing he could do.

And at this time, he also understood the intention of the pottery merchant to lead his troops back to Hangu Pass.

Just when Zhong Yao was in a state of desperation, two princes, Ma Teng and Han Sui, arrived one after another with their elite troops.

Although only two groups of people came, it was like sending charcoal in the snow, which moved Zhong Yao very much.

At the same time, the soldiers and horses of the pottery merchants also began to attack.

He mobilized a large number of thunderbolt vehicles, catapults, well fences, ladders and other large siege equipment from the Central Plains to prepare for a strong attack on Chang'an City.

Just when Ma Teng and Han Sui entered Chang'an City, the potters began to attack Chang'an City.

Jinling soldiers operated large-scale siege equipment and bombarded Chang'an City indiscriminately.

This time the potters did not send death squads to attack the enemy, but just used the throwing machine to throw huge fireballs and the well fence to shoot a lot of arrow rain, and launched a fierce attack on the enemy's city.

The entire city wall was bombarded with stones and arrows, fireballs and other things for a whole day.

The soldiers at the head of the entire Chang'an city were a little bit unable to hold their heads up after being bombarded for a whole day.

Fortunately, the general defending the city was Hao Zhao. He made proper arrangements and stabilized the morale of the soldiers so that the soldiers' morale would not be broken under this situation.

It was not until the evening that the soldiers of the three armies gradually withdrew, and the siege equipment was also put away by the Jinling Army.

And Cao Jun in the city was relieved a little.

Seeing the Jinling Army retreating gradually, Hao Zhaofang raised his head and let out a long sigh.

He turned his head and cupped his hands towards Zhong Yao, and said, "Mr. Zhong, what should we do now?"

Zhong Yao was also very frightened by the enemy's random beating. He looked around at the ashen-faced and decayed defenders, and said helplessly, "The Tao thief is really cunning! He doesn't send troops to attack, but uses this Such a method, but it makes our soldiers feel comfortable, and the reduction of morale is a vicious tactic."

Hao Zhao showed a wry smile, and he also understood the other party's plan in his heart, but he couldn't help it.

At this moment, Ma Teng and Han Sui appeared behind them.

Han Sui said to Zhong Yao: "The potters don't attack the city, but use stones and arrows to confuse our army. Although it does not hinder the city, it has a great impact on morale. If this continues, Zhong Gong, we need another Make a good plan!"

Chapter 9 and Eight

Han Sui and Ma Teng led the troops back to Chang'an City. At this point, Zhong Yao felt very grateful to them. There was also a conspiracy, but Zhong Yao didn't think of them as having joined the pottery.

He turned his head to look at Han Sui, and said cheerfully: "Dong Han said so, do you have some ideas?"

Han Sui said in a low voice: "Let the soldiers occupy the top of the city every day, facing the overwhelming flying stones and flying arrows, they are the soldiers made of iron. Over time, their morale will inevitably slack. Wouldn't the military spirit and fighting spirit change?"

Zhong Yao thought about it carefully, then nodded and said, "That's really the case."

Hao Zhao asked Han Sui, "But the question is, what should we do if we don't let the soldiers help us guard the city here? Is it possible to let them be hostile to us?"

Zhong Yao thought about it seriously, and said, "That's true."

Han Suidao: "The Tao Shang army clearly doesn't want to attack the city right now, but just wants to use flying stones and equipment to wait for me. Our army's morale is low. From this point of view, we can withdraw the soldiers from the city right now, and wait for the soldiers to attack the city." Wouldn’t it be wonderful if they appeared in front of us and let them throw flying stones and arrows on the top of the city for nothing?”

Zhong Yao's eyes froze when he heard Han Sui's plan.

This, this is his strategy?

It's no wonder that half his life has passed by this old boy, and he can't become a big climate. He lost all the emperors he got back then.

I didn't eat haggis, so why did I chatter into the water?

If you leave the city empty, the pottery merchants really sent troops to attack the city later. Wouldn't it be a joke to send troops to the city to deploy defenses?

Zhong Yao shook his head and said: "This matter is inappropriate. The pottery merchants are full of tricks and tricks, and they will play tricks from time to time. We must not be negligent. According to the old man, this method is too risky and unfeasible. .”

Ma Teng said from the side: "Although Brother Han's plan is not applicable, but for us, we can also change the method and try again."

Zhong Yao turned to look at him: "How to change the method?"

Ma Teng said with a smile: "Although we can't let all the soldiers of the three armies help defend the city, they can be divided and defend the city. Divide the soldiers into several waves, go up the city wall according to the time, and then everyone takes turns to deal with the guarding Jinling army. What do you think?"

As soon as he said this, Zhong Yao began to bow his head and think.This is also a good policy.

After a long silence, Zhong Yao asked, "What should we do? How many groups should we divide into?"

Ma Teng didn't say a word.

After all, it is Zhong Yao's city, so Zhong Yao has the final say on how to arrange the layout.

Seeing that Ma Teng and Han Sui were silent, Zhong Yao turned his head to Hao Zhao who was behind him.

Hao Zhao pondered for a moment, then cupped his hands to Ma Teng and said, "General Shoucheng's words are reasonable, so let's divide our troops into three armies, and the two generals Ma and Han will each lead their own troops to defend the city. We have one round every three days, what do the two generals think?"

Ma Teng smiled and said, "You should do what you want."

Han Sui's face was expressionless, but his heart was actually full of joy.

If it is really possible to take turns guarding the city in this way, then this matter will really be resolved later.

After discussing and agreeing, Ma Teng and Han Sui walked down the city immediately.

When he came under the city, Ma Teng suddenly asked Han Sui, "Brother, I think you were silent just now, and you were rather dull. Could it be that you blamed me for interrupting your nonsense?"

Han Sui waved his hand with a smile, and said, "No, no, what did you say, brother? How could I be angry with you, brother, and Zhong Yao discussed this matter. Let's fight early and expel the pottery quickly. Save the places in the Guanzhong from being restless and fighting back and forth every day, which is quite tiresome."

Ma Teng smiled when he heard the words, and didn't say anything. After a while, he suddenly said, "Brother Han, in your opinion, can we win this battle with the potters until the end?" ?”

Han Sui said dryly: "How do I know, these are all matters that Zhong Yao needs to arrange, so what does it have to do with me?"

Ma Teng pursed his lips, and said: "Brother Han, you and I were considered colleagues back then, and we were brothers. There are some things, I think it's better for us to talk about them openly."

Han Sui turned to look at Ma Teng and said, "What do you mean?"

Ma Teng pondered for a moment, and said: "I think the defense of Chang'an is just to delay time. Even if we defend this time, there will be another time. Sooner or later, we will lose. The unification of the world is the general trend, and even if we try to stop it, we will not be able to stop it." of."
