Xucheng, since the Han Dynasty returned to the west and returned to the imperial capital Luoyang, Xucheng has changed from Xudu to Xu County, but even so, Xu County is still the seat of Yuzhou and a prefecture city.
In the past, cars and horses came and went, and it was prosperous.[
In addition, because Dong Cheng, Xu Shu and other seven armies were stationed in the important city in the east, the atmosphere of killing was very strong. Of course, this also gave the people a sense of security.
But today, it is different.
On this day, there were very few merchants and people entering the city. Especially outside the east city gate, there was no one. Because the city gate had been blocked by large numbers of horse and infantry troops.
Merchants coming and going can only enter the city through Nancheng.
Outside the city gate, there are five groups of elite soldiers, three of whom are cavalry. They are all sitting astride high-headed war horses, holding swords in their hands, and they are majestic.
On the other side were the soldiers of the Han Dynasty, all wearing armor, holding swords and carrying crossbows. They stood together like an iron army, as thick as Mount Tai and as cold as a violent storm.
The elite soldiers on the last line are a little more ordinary. They are just ordinary elite infantry, but their momentum should not be underestimated. Judging from their appearance, they may be able to fight with the Han soldiers.
But it was Dong Cheng, Xu Shu and others who responded to Liu Feng's order and sent out troops today.
At this moment, Dong Cheng, Xu Shu, Chen Ben, Wenpin, Gan Ning and other generals gathered inside the city gate. However, the two sides were facing each other. Dong Cheng, Xu Shu, Gan Ning were in the east, while Chen Ben and Wenpin were in the east.
But in the West.
"The safety of Xu Cheng will be left to the two generals."
Dong Cheng took a deep breath and solemnly saluted Wenpin and Chen Ben.
However, the troops sent out today were Dong Cheng, Gan Ning, Xu Shu and other five elite troops, while Wen Pin and Chen Ben were left behind to guard the city.
"I'll be waiting for you in the city. General, don't worry."
Wen Pin and Chen Ben looked at each other and bowed to Dong Cheng.
"I wish the general a victory." Immediately afterwards, Wenpin led many soldiers to give blessings to Dong Cheng.
"Hahaha, thank you all for your kind words."
Dong Cheng laughed loudly, then suddenly turned around, led Xu Shu, Gan Ning and other four generals, got on their horses and headed towards the direction of the army.
"Da da da."
Soon after, the sound of footsteps and horse hooves sounded together, and the 30,000-horse infantry marched towards the east.[
On March 1, the fifth year of Zhongxing, the generals under the Han Dynasty, General Dong Cheng of the Hussars, General Xu Shu of the Zhenjun, and General Gan Ning of the Zhechong, led five groups and 30,000 elite troops to attack Yanzhou.
…………
It was also March 1st in Jiangzhou, but it was cloudy and it was raining lightly.
The city of Jiangzhou was as gloomy as the sky. At first, the people of Jiangzhou helped Sun Ce defend the city, but they were defeated.
Although Liu Feng did not massacre the city, the result was an increased tax burden.
This certainly made the people in the city full of hatred towards the Jiangdong people, but it also burdened their families, and the entire Jiangzhou was in a bad state.
However, there is nothing we can do about it. Who told the people in the city to choose something they shouldn't have chosen?
At this moment, the south of the city is on the north bank of the Yangtze River.
"Whoa whoa whoa whoa."
Today is not only cloudy, but the wind is also very strong. Standing on the shore, you can not only feel the wind, but also the sound of the waves in the river.
