Three Kingdoms King of the North

"General Taishi," Yu Qianling said dumbfoundedly: "We have run out of food and grass, if we continue to stay here, even if Marquis Lu Wen doesn't send people to attack the city, we won't be able to last long here."

"Yu Qianling," Tai Shici said sternly, "If our army withdraws from Licheng at this moment, if we are pursued by Lu Bu, the whole army may collapse. It is still unknown how many people will reach Qingzhou."

"The general's words are wrong!" Hearing this, the team leader couldn't bear it anymore. He walked into the main hall quickly and said loudly: "Even if we stay behind closed doors in Licheng, we can't stop Lu Bu The attack of soldiers and horses."

Tai Shici looked up at the leader, but said nothing. He knew in his heart that what the leader said was very reasonable.Don't look at the thousands of soldiers and horses under his command, but they are all newly recruited soldiers. Naturally, their combat power cannot be compared with the soldiers and horses led by Lu Bu.Now only half of the soldiers have weapons, and the rest of the soldiers are armed with sharpened wooden sticks. If they encounter the bandit Yellow Turban, they are still capable of fighting, but they are vulnerable to Lu Bu's elite soldiers.

Don't look at my soldiers and horses staying in the city, the walls of Keli City are low, there is no moat, and the defense equipment is not complete, otherwise I would not have easily captured this city.Now that he has been defended by himself and attacked by others, I am afraid that the final outcome will not be able to defend.However, it is obviously impossible to abandon the city and leave. As soon as the soldiers and horses with a low morale leave the city, most of them may disperse.

Now that he is riding a tiger, Tai Shici can only bite the bullet and say: "You two, don't worry, maybe the soldiers sent by the lord will arrive tomorrow. If we abandon the city at this time and be chased and killed by Lu Bu's soldiers, we will definitely die." The army is defeated like a mountain, even if the lord's reinforcements arrive, it will not help the matter."

Seeing that Tai Shici was so stubborn, Yu Qianling and the leader knew that if they continued to persuade him, there would be no results, so they could only sigh, bowed their hands to Tai Shici, turned and walked out of the main hall.

When he came to the courtyard, Yu Qianling stopped the team leader and asked: "General Taishi is so stubborn that he insists on holding on to Licheng without food and reinforcements inside and outside. I think the city will be destroyed soon. I don't know. What are the team's plans?"

"What other plans does XX have?" Hearing what Yu Qianling said, the team leader couldn't help but replied with a wry smile: "My lord ordered XX to escort General Taishi to Yangzhou to recruit troops. Now that he is in a desperate situation, what can he do, the only thing is to fight to the death. "

The purpose of Yu Qianling's asking this question was to persuade the team to lead people to leave with him.In any case, currently the most powerful force in the entire army is the dozens of soldiers led by the team. If these capable soldiers are escorted, even if Lu Bu sends troops to chase them, there is a chance to retreat unscathed.

But at this moment, when he heard the team leader saying that he was going to stay and fight to the death, his heart suddenly became cold.However, he still said unwillingly: "Team leader, if you don't leave now, if you want to leave tomorrow when Lu Wenhou leads his troops to attack the city, you won't be able to leave."

"Everyone has their own aspirations. Since Yu Qianling doesn't want to stay in Licheng, then you should follow suit." From Yu Qianling's tone of voice, the team leader guessed that the other party didn't want to stay in Licheng to accompany Tai Shici to his death, so he He said generously: "If Yu Qianling wants to leave, I will immediately send two of my men to escort you out of the city safely."

Yu Qianling wished to leave this dead place as soon as possible, but when he heard the team leader say this, he became coy: "You have never left this place, how can I leave you and escape alone?"

Seeing that the other party didn't agree to his proposal, the team leader didn't want to talk nonsense with him anymore, but just bowed to the other party, then left the county government office and continued to lead people to patrol the city.

In the early morning of the next day, Tai Shici led his men up to the north wall to prepare for Lu Bu's siege.However, they waited and waited until noon, but there was still no movement in Lu Bu's army.Under such circumstances, some soldiers inevitably began to discuss in private: "Didn't you say that the Yangzhou army would attack the city? It's almost noon, why is there no movement at all?"

"I don't know how long I'll have to stand," another soldier said angrily, "Since I woke up in the morning, the rice hasn't stuck to my teeth. If I fight later, I won't have the strength."

"You still want to eat." His companion snorted coldly: "Let me tell you, the city has long run out of food. The meal we ate yesterday should be our last meal."

"What, we've run out of food, so what are we still doing here?" The soldier said dissatisfiedly, "Even if the enemy doesn't attack, we will starve to death if we stay in the city, why not?"

Before he finished speaking, he received a heavy whip on the head, and blood immediately flowed down his forehead.He covered the wound, turned his head to see who had done it, but found that the leader was standing behind him.The team leader said with a ferocious face: "If anyone continues to confuse the hearts of the people and shake the morale of the army, I will not whip him, but directly take off his head."

The surrounding soldiers were frightened by the leader's expression, and all of them trembled and dared not answer.At this moment, when war drums sounded in the distance, the team leader looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a soldier and horse coming towards his position, and on a big flag in the middle, There is a large "Lu" character written on it.

It was Lu Bu's soldiers and horses who came to attack the city, and the team leader did not dare to be negligent, so he told his subordinates to prepare to defend the city, while he ran towards the gate of the city. He was going to report to Tai Shici immediately that Lu Bu's soldiers and horses were approaching Seeing the city approaching, it should be ready to attack the city.

The soldiers standing on the city wall looked at the approaching Lv Bu soldiers and horses, all of them couldn't help being terrified. They all turned their heads to look at the city gate building, hoping to see Tai Shici's figure, so that they could give them some peace of mind. Emboldened.

Chapter 458 Reinforcements Arrive

In fact, even if the team leader didn't go to report, Tai Shici, who was sitting in the gate building with Yu Qianling, could hear the sound of war drums coming from below the city.He was about to send someone out to ask what happened outside, when the team leader rushed in.

Although Tai Shici guessed in his heart that it might be Lv Bu's army attacking the city, he still asked casually, "What happened outside?"

"Responding to the general's words," the team leader quickly replied, "Lu Bu's troops have begun to attack the city. Please, the general, go out and take charge of the overall situation."

"Yu Qianling," Tai Shici nodded after hearing this, and then said to Yu Qianling who was walking opposite: "Lu Bu's soldiers and horses have begun to attack the city, and our army may not last long. The general can send someone to escort you out from other city gates."

When Yu Qianling learned that Lu Bu's soldiers and horses were attacking the city, he couldn't help but panicked. He wished he could put on his wings, fly out of the city, and escape to a safe place.But now that Tai Shici asked this question face to face, he didn't know how to answer it.After hesitating for a long time, he murmured: "The general and all the soldiers are staying in the city, how can I escape alone? I would like to stay and live and die with the general."

"Since Yu Qianling is willing to stay, please go back to the county government first and bring people to maintain law and order in the city." Seeing that Yu Qianling was willing to stay, Tai Shici stood up and cupped his hands at him and said, "When the general is defeated Lu Bu's soldiers and horses, let's have a drink with the master again."

After sending Yu Qianling away, Tai Shici and his team led the two out of the tower.Seeing Tai Shici's appearance, the soldiers on the city wall suddenly gained confidence in their hearts. They knew very well that even if the city fell, Tai Shici would always be with them.

Immediately after Lu Bu's soldiers and horses arrived at the city, a group of archers stepped forward and fired arrows.If it was anywhere else, the archers at the top of the city would definitely shoot back and shoot at them.However, Tai Shici's subordinates were all newly recruited soldiers, and occasionally a few soldiers who could use bows and arrows had already died in the battle a few days ago.The defenders in the city did not have bows and arrows. Facing the bows and arrows shot up from the city, the soldiers could only hide behind the crenels.

Seeing that the defenders in the city were too suppressed to raise their heads, Lu Bu waved the painting halberd forward in his hand, signaling the infantry to come forward and attack the city.Seeing the signal from Lu Bu, the pawns shouted loudly, and rushed towards the city wall carrying the bamboo ladder.When they came to the city wall, they put a ladder on the wall. Two soldiers held the ladder at the bottom, and the rest of the soldiers climbed up the ladder.

Tai Shici saw Lu Bu's soldiers climbing up the ladder, so he stood up and gave orders loudly.It happened that one of Lu Bu's soldiers climbed up to the top of the city, so he raised his hand and shot him down.

The surrounding soldiers, seeing Tai Shici stabbing the Lu Bujun who had climbed the city wall down the city wall, also stood up quickly, and stabbed down the city wall one after another with the weapons in their hands.Some soldiers forgot that there were archers under the city. Because they exposed their bodies to the crenel for too long, they were shot in the vital part by bows and arrows and fell to the ground directly.

Due to the suppression of bows and arrows under the city, although the defenders in the city continued to kill and wound Lu Bu's army, they also suffered a lot of casualties.Soon, some Lu Bu troops successfully boarded the city wall and fought with the defenders on the city.Seeing this, the team leader hurriedly said to Tai Shici: "General, an enemy army has entered the city!"

"You are here to stare, someone to deal with them." Tai Shici was deeply afraid that the city would fall if Lv Bu's army who climbed up that section of the city wall gained a firm foothold, so he left his opponent here to supervise the battle, and he took ten soldiers with him. Several soldiers rushed towards the place where Lu Bu's army entered the city.

Even though Tai Shici was not Lu Bu's opponent fighting alone, with the assistance of his own soldiers, he would have no problem dealing with the dozens of Lu Bu's troops who climbed up the city wall.Ordinary Lv Bu soldiers were no match for him, they would often fall under his gun after meeting each other.

It's a pity that the combat power of Lv Bu's army far surpassed that of the defenders. The Lv Bu army who entered the city here had just been wiped out, and when Lv Bu's army entered the city in other areas, he had to rush to the rescue with his people.

After running back and forth seven or eight places, Tai Shici felt that his physical strength had seriously declined, and he thought to himself: No, if he ran two or three places again, he would not even have the strength to swing a weapon.If the fight continues, the city cannot be defended at all.

Just as he was leaning against the crenel in the city to breathe, he suddenly heard a soldier not far away shouting: "Reinforcement, our reinforcement, our reinforcement is here!"

First one person shouted, and then two or three countless soldiers shouted loudly.Tai Shici was still skeptical about the arrival of the reinforcements, but when he heard countless people shouting, he hurriedly rushed to the crenel, looked into the distance, and saw a cloud of dust rising from the plain in the distance.

Seeing that the dust raised up was not high and moving at a slow speed, Tai Shici knew it was infantry.Although the reinforcements were still a few miles away, the besieging Lu Bu army stopped attacking and retreated to the main formation one after another.Ji Ling, who had been staying by Lu Bu's side all the time, only snorted when he heard that Tai Shici's reinforcements had arrived, and said to Lu Bu: "Marquis Wen, you continue to attack the city, and wait for Ji to deal with the reinforcements." After finishing speaking, He took three thousand soldiers and horses under his command, the front team became the rear team, and the rear team changed to the front team, and went to meet the soldiers and horses in the distance.

The soldiers and horses who came to rescue Licheng were [-] soldiers and horses led by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.When the two were still ten miles away from Licheng, they got a report from the horse scouting, saying that Lu Bu's soldiers and horses were attacking Licheng.After Guan Yu heard this, he was afraid that Tai Shici would not be able to resist, so he ordered the troops to speed up and try to reach Licheng before the city was broken.

As soon as Ji Ling set up his formation on the road, Guan and Zhang appeared a stone's throw away with soldiers and horses.Ji Ling urged the horse forward alone, and shouted loudly at the oncoming soldiers and horses: "Who are you and what are you doing here?"

Zhang Fei was in a hurry, and when he heard someone yelling in front of him, he immediately urged his horse out of the battle.He shouted loudly at Ji Ling: "I am Zhang Fei from Yan, a vanguard under the command of the Marquis of Anyang, and I was ordered to relieve the siege of Licheng."

"Zhang Fei from Yan?" Ji Ling repeated Zhang Fei's name, with a disdainful expression on his face: "I've never heard of it. I advise you to retreat quickly, or you will be turned into a three-pointed two-edged sword." the souls of the dead."

How could Zhang Fei bear this kind of anger, screaming, and waving the Zhangba Snake Spear in his hand, he rushed up and fought with the arrogant Ji Ling.

Although Ji Ling is Yuan Shu's capable general, he can only be regarded as a second-rate general at best, so he is no match for Zhang Fei, a first-rate general.After the two of them fought for a few rounds, Ji Ling felt unable to hold on, so he swung his saber feignedly, turned the horse's head, and was about to run away.But Zhang Fei was not willing to let him go, he stabbed him under the horse with a single spear.

Zhang Fei was about to make another shot when he heard the sound of horseshoes in a hurry. He raised his hand and saw a general riding a red rabbit horse, holding a Fang Tian painted halberd in his hand, and wearing a crown soaring towards the sky. Come over by yourself.Zhang Fei had no choice but to leave Ji Ling behind and force Lu Bu to leave.

Finish this testimonial

This book is written here, although the story has not been finished, but after careful consideration by the author, I decided to finish the book and let the book come to an end.

When writing this book, the author was very serious. Anyway, this is the first book in the transition from foreign history to domestic history.But now it seems that this is a very failed work and has not been recognized by the majority of readers.

First of all, when writing this book, in addition to the background of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms that readers are familiar with, the author also added a lot of real historical materials from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Secondly, when using the map, I used a wrong map of the Three Kingdoms. Many plot arrangements are based on this map.By the time I discovered a serious mistake, I had already written 80 million words, and even if I wanted to revise it, it was too late.

After this book is finished, the author will open a new book after the Spring Festival. The historical background is the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty. I have made preparations for more than a year. The new book will be more exciting than the old one. I hope it will be liked by readers and friends. .

Finally, I would like to thank readers and friends who have been supporting this book, thank you!

Chapter 459 Sanying Defeats Lu Bu

After this application was rejected, the story will continue to be told.

Zhang Fei rushed to a position more than twenty steps away from Lv Bu, reined in his horse, pointed at Lv Bu with the zhangba snake spear in his hand, and shouted sharply: "Hey, the slaves of the three surnames, do you recognize Zhang Fei from Yan?" ?”

Lu Bu reined in Chituma, looked at Zhang Fei with disdainful eyes, raised his head, and said arrogantly: "This is a big man, Marquis Wen, and I don't know any wild men."
