Chapter 370 Zhang Fei, an enemy of ten thousand people, kills enemies one after another, amazes Chang'an!
Outside Shaanxi County.
The flags are flying, and the soldiers are densely armored.
Although there are North and South Xiaodao Roads on the road from Luoyang to Shaanxian County, in the late Han Dynasty, there was no customs clearance here, and the strategic role was not as obvious as in later generations.
After Liu Bei ordered Shi Huan to take over the troops in Nanmianchi, he marched in two directions. After half a month of marching, he finally crossed the North-South Xiaodao Road and arrived at the outskirts of Shaanxian County.
Now we set up camp and lead the troops first to observe the terrain and detect the enemy's situation.
Shaanxian County is located on the south bank of the Yellow River. The water system here is relatively developed, and the rivers are crisscrossed. Fortunately, they are only branched out tributaries and do not affect the march. Otherwise, the difficulty of attacking the city will inevitably increase.
After a brief inspection of the city defenses, Liu Bei had a rough assessment of the terrain here. He came to the area near the south gate, dismounted his horse and stepped on the ground himself:
"Zi Yang."
Liu Bei turned to glance at Liu Ye and asked tentatively: "Bei saw in the manual that the recoil of the siege-type ballista is relatively large and requires a relatively solid foundation. Do you think it is okay here?"
After all, this was Liu Bei's first battle in Nanyang, so he was very serious and considered all kinds of issues, for fear that something would go wrong and he would fail the emperor's order.
Liu Ye marveled at Liu Bei's carefulness. In his impression, Liu Bei was the first commander to consider the issue of recoil. Based on this alone, it was very reasonable for His Majesty the Emperor to order him to succeed Zhang Liao.
"Don't worry, Mr. Xuande."
Liu Ye hurriedly bowed his head and said softly: "The recoil issue mentioned in the manual by Your Majesty is mainly a case of special terrain conditions."
"Although there are crisscrossing rivers in Shaanxi County and the soil is relatively soft, as long as a flat base is added, it should not affect its use."
Liu Bei frowned: "Base?"
Liu Ye nodded: "That's right."
"Could it be..."
Liu Bei searched for information about the base in his mind and guessed: "A circular chassis?"
Liu Ye smiled and bowed his head: "Xuan Degong is serious indeed. Yes, it is a round chassis. The four legs of the ballista are sharp objects. When they bear the recoil, they will easily sink, causing the ballista to become unbalanced.
.”
"And if a circular chassis is installed underneath it, the recoil force can be evenly dispersed to ensure that the ballista will not overturn at will. This is the concept of pressure proposed by His Majesty."
Liu Bei suddenly understood and nodded: "I see, Bei really doesn't understand, so it's all up to Zi Yang to arrange the ballistae. His Majesty asked to build up momentum, so you make the ballistae here, under their eyes."
"Don't worry, Ziyang."
Having said this, Liu Bei patted his chest and promised: "There is definitely no need to worry about safety issues. I will order Yide to lead elite troops to stay by your side for twelve hours non-stop."
Liu Ye naturally believed in Liu Bei's strength and said with a smile: "We are all members of the Han clan. How can Ye not believe in Mr. Xuande? Don't worry, I will invest in making crossbows as soon as possible."
"good."
Liu Bei was overjoyed: "In that case, I'll leave it to you."
Liu Ye nodded: "Don't worry."
"Yide!"
Immediately afterwards, Liu Bei shouted and called Zhang Fei over: "Brother, what are you calling me for?"
Liu Bei ordered: "From now on, you will lead the troops to protect the safety of Ziyang and his troops. If you take advantage of someone's skin, you will be the only one to ask. Do you understand?"
Immediately, Zhang Fei cupped his hands and clasped his fists: "Brother, don't worry, leave this matter to me, I guarantee there will be no problem. Later, I will call the formation first to weaken the spirit of these guys."
"good!"
Liu Bei pondered for a while and agreed: "The best defense is to attack. Beat them until they dare not come out. In this way, I can prepare suspicious troops as soon as possible."
"Okay."
Liu Bei immediately felt relieved and bowed his head: "In that case, I will leave this place to you for the time being."
Liu Ye hurriedly handed over his hands and said, "Congratulations to Mr. Xuande."
Zhang Fei chuckled: "Brother, walk slowly."
Looking at Liu Bei's back as he rode away, Zhang Fei came forward and said softly: "Brother Ziyang, I heard that the imperial court's siege ballistae is very powerful. When it is built, can I try it first?"
"
Liu Yedan smiled and nodded affirmatively: "Of course!"
"oh?"
Zhang Fei's eyes flashed with excitement: "Seriously?"
Liu Ye hummed: "Of course."
"How powerful is it? Can it really destroy the city wall?"
"Um......"
Liu Ye raised his eyes and looked at the city in front of him, pondering for a moment: "The city in Shaanxi County has not been reinforced, so there shouldn't be any big problems. It is guaranteed to be an eye-opener for General Yide."
"Hahaha."
Zhang Fei looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "That's very good, that's very good! If brother Ziyang needs help, just say it, Fei will be respectful and promise to complete it."
"No need to trouble General, Duke Xuande has already made arrangements."
Liu Yedan responded with a smile, and then his eyes passed over Zhang Fei and landed on the crowded Shaanxi County city: "General, you should find a way to deal with it. If I guess correctly, they are gathering troops."
"oh?"
Zhang Fei turned to look at the city head.
As expected.
At the top of the city, which was peaceful just now, a lot of soldiers and horses have gathered, and some are even carrying equipment to defend the city.
Zhang Fei's eyes were as wide as bells, and he was startled. He actually saw the wolf fang slap used by Nanyang Hanting, Yaksha.
"It's interesting."
Zhang Fei naturally knows the power of Langya Pai and Yaksha.
Although this thing can't kill too many people when defending a city, it can disrupt your siege rhythm and make the entire offensive rhythm intermittent, which is very annoying.
The most annoying thing is...
There is not much technical difficulty in making this kind of thing. With a little research, it can be made. Therefore, after so many years, Chang'an Hanting has also mastered this technology.
"Brothers!"
Zhang Fei got on his horse and waved his hand: "Come with me to meet them."
All the soldiers responded in unison: "Here."
Immediately.
A swarm of elite soldiers flooded toward the front of the city like a tide.
Zhang Fei waved his hand to signal the team to stop. He immediately took the snake spear and ran forward a few feet. He shouted towards the city, "Children in the city, listen, I am Zhang Fei from Yan. Can anyone dare to come out and die?"
"Zhang Fei from Yan?"
A strong man in armor and armor at the top of the city shouted coldly: "Where did the nameless rat come from and dared to run wild here like us? I, the general, will teach you today what the difference is between rats and mighty generals!"
"Someone is coming!"
The rough man at the top of the city shouted: "Get my weapons."
The soldier raised his hands and said, "Here."
Immediately.
The reckless man took the weapon, suddenly turned around, and came down from the city.
Squeak—!
City gate exhibition.
A warrior flew out from inside. The man was strong and strong, holding an iron gun that was two feet tall. He held a spear in his hand and rushed towards Zhang Fei:
"I am Hu Mulang in Hanoi, and I have come to accept my fate."
"Zhang Fei from Yan is here!"
"ah-!"
A roar.
Zhang Fei suddenly clamped the horse's belly, and the horse sat down and felt the pain. It raised its head and neighed, like a black lightning, and rushed out. The eight-foot-long spear in his palm swung up, like a strong wind, whistling and carrying.
The momentum of thunder suddenly flew forward.
Phew! Phew! Phew!
The spear tip was spinning, like a giant python coming out of its hole, spitting out words, opening its bloody mouth, and instantly collided with the spear tip thrust by Hu Mulang.
There was a crisp clang.
But see...
Mrs. Hu's eyes were as wide as bells, and she was terrified.
He felt as if the shot had hit a big mountain. Not only was it unable to shake the opponent at all, but it was also so powerful that his arm became numb and the pain was unstoppable.
"Damn it!"
Hu Muban cursed secretly and hurriedly added another hand in an attempt to stabilize the force.
But how could Zhang Fei give him this opportunity? He immediately thrust forward violently, and his cold Zhangba spear knocked away the opponent's iron spear. From the side, at an extremely strange angle, it rushed towards his weakly defended ribs.
Down.
puff!
The spear tip pierced through and then pulled away, as smoothly as a dragonfly touching water.
When the horses of both sides passed by each other, Hu Mulang suddenly fell to the ground. Only then did the soldiers see clearly that Zhang Fei penetrated the opponent's body with a spear, and half of his body was severely injured.
Bright red juice gushed out from under his ribs and back, dyeing the ground outside Shaanxian County red. It even reduced the arrogance of Chang'an soldiers and horses to nothing with a single spear.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
Hoho—!
The next second, a deafening roar sounded.
Although these soldiers knew that Zhang Fei was powerful, they did not know that their own general was so powerful. With just one move, he could kill the opponent's general in an instant.
Although their military strength was not very large, and they were more of a suspicious force, and they did not dare to fight their opponents in the first place, but at this moment, their morale soared, as if they roared out the terrifying momentum of thousands of horses and thousands of troops.
"Hahaha!"
Zhang Fei looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, pointed the blood-stained spear point at the city head angrily, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Is this you general? You are not even as good as a nameless rat like me!"
"Could it be that the things hidden in the city of Shaanxi County are all inferior to pigs and dogs? If that's the case, then go back to Guanzhong this morning and stop being embarrassed here."
"This general is just a partial general from Nanyang. He killed you to pieces. With your ability, you still dare to compete with us for Shaanxi County. Go back and take care of your children."
"..."
Zhang Fei began to curse, and the minions behind him also emboldened themselves one by one. They raised their weapons high and started provoking words one after another without any fear:
"Are all the soldiers and horses in Chang'an just eggless guys? If you find any, your Third Grandpa has prepared delicious food for you and others. I guarantee that you and others will enjoy it to their heart's content!"
"You are a cowardless rat, shrunk like a turtle, what the hell is dead, and you are so scared to look like this? Is it possible that all the eggs were eaten by the dogs?"
"..."
Once the momentum is built up, it becomes more and more intense.
Even Zhang Fei didn't need to speak, just one wave after another.
Zhang Fei's eyes were always focused on the top of the city. More and more soldiers gathered here, including some generals wearing armor and stomach. They stared at Hu Muban on the ground, as if their whole bodies were trembling.
But after a long time...
Squeak—!
The gates of Shaanxi County are opened again.
One on the left and one on the right, two generals were killed.
The man on the left has a strong back and a bear-like waist. He is holding a fine iron horse spear that is two feet long. He is wearing a large leaf chainmail armor and an overlord purple gold helmet on his head. The horse is sitting down and is estimated to be one foot tall. It should not be inferior to his own war horse. Every cent.
The man on the right is slightly thin, but has a strong body, a wasp waist and ape-like arms. He has a war spear in his hand and is about to outflank him from the side.
It's obvious!
The two people had discussed this in advance.
One person is entangled frontally, and the other person is sideways and circuitous. The two are in sync with each other, attacking from the front and back, and they are vicious and vicious.
But unfortunately, they bumped into none other than Zhang Fei from Yan, who was known as the enemy of ten thousand people.
Not to mention just the two of them, even an army with thousands of horses and thousands of troops, in Zhang Fei's eyes, is still as shabby as iron. Not only does it not scare him, but it even arouses his excitement.
"Ha ha!"
Zhang Fei's eyes widened, and his excitement was beyond words.
as if!
This is not a battle at all, it is just a game of duel. Although there is a duel and life and death, in Zhang Fei's eyes, life belongs to him and death belongs to others, and it will never change.
"Well done!"
Zhang Feichuo held the spear in his hand and cheered up.
He didn't even wait for the opponent to come closer, but he was dozens of steps away, suddenly increased his speed, let out a roar, and the Zhangba spear in his palm drew a wonderful curve in the air, and quickly stabbed the strong man who was attacking from the front.
This spear.
Zhang Fei had gathered all his strength, and he was as fast as lightning, and his timing was also very clever. When the opponent raised the horse's spear, before he could stab it out, it struck the opponent in front of him like a bolt of thunder.
puff!
The spear tip pierced the opponent's armor and stomach, and with a pop, it pierced through his skin and flesh and sank into his chest. The opponent just stared and bared his teeth, but he no longer had the strength to wield the weapon.
But at the same time, the outflanking enemy generals were already approaching, and the cold war spears were like dragons coming out of the sea, roaring towards them with thunderous momentum:
"Chop suey!"
"Come take your life—!"
Unfortunately, the moment he waved the weapon, Zhang Fei had already noticed his intention, and his body twisted greatly on the war horse. At the same time, the Zhangba spear was raised violently.
With a crisp clang, he easily blocked the opponent's suddenly falling war spear. The strong force surged in, but was easily shattered by Zhang Fei's skillful use.
"snort!"
As soon as an expert takes action, he will know what is going on.
Although it was just a passive block, Zhang Fei already had a rough judgment on the enemy's strength.
He is almost 100% sure that the opponent's strength is far inferior to his own. As long as he finds an opportunity, he can easily kill him without any pressure.
Chi Leng Leng!
The war spear rubbed against the Zhang Ba Spear and slid away for some distance.
As Zhang Fei galloped past with his horse, he knocked away the opponent's weapon and violently threw out the corpse on the spear shaft.
He originally wanted to slow down his move and then kill his opponent, but he kept chasing after him, one move failed, and another suddenly fell.
Zhang Fei grabbed the reins with one hand and the stirrup with the other. He twisted his body greatly on the horse, almost half of his body was lifted out of the horse, and with the other hand, he suddenly waved the Zhangba spear.
clang-!
There was a crisp explosion.
The two spears collided together, and thousands of sparks flashed out.
But Zhang Fei's strength was so great that he knocked his opponent's weapon away, and the spear blade whizzed past half an inch in front of his neck, instantly breaking out the opponent in cold sweat.
"Thieves, please leave—!"
"Wow!
!”
Zhang Fei was furious and roared at the top of his lungs.
When the warriors who followed heard this, they were so frightened that their faces turned pale and their livers and gallbladders were shattered. The spear they thrust out hesitated for a moment, but instead of thrusting out, Zhang Fei's snake spear swung back and struck him.
waist.
puff!
Bright red juice spurted out.
The opponent's eyes were as wide as bells, as if he didn't expect that the young general in front of him was so brave: "You...you actually...I...I underestimated the enemy...
.”
"snort!"
Zhang Fei didn't care about that. He swung his snake spear and threw his opponent away. He shouted coldly: "Why are you underestimating the enemy? It's obviously because you are not good at learning. Could it be that if you take it seriously, you can win me?"
Roar! Roar! Roar!
Hoho—!
A low roar of mourning sounded again outside the city.
Liu Ye, who was still a little worried at first, felt completely relieved this time and even couldn't help but praise: "I didn't expect that Xuande Gong's third brother was so brave and defeated two powerful men with just two moves.
"
You must know that the three people who came out before were all powerful generals of Chang'an Hanting, especially Hu Mu Lang, who was born in the Hu Mu family in Hanoi and was a well-known wealthy family.
Although these people were not the most brave people in the Han court in Chang'an, they were definitely powerful generals. Even so, they were still easily killed by Zhang Fei.
This only proves...
Zhang Fei is so powerful.
No wonder, Duke Xuande put Zhang Fei here, and then he boldly went to arrange it, killing his opponents and killing people one after another. I am afraid that even the Han court in Chang'an would still be shocked.
As expected.
Just when Zhang Fei killed three powerful generals one after another, there were already messengers rushing towards the Chinese army's tent:
"Report—!"
A long report was passed from the camp gate to the Chinese army.
The messengers rushed into the tent like flies. They looked extremely panicked. They leaned over and said, "General, something bad has happened. There is a strong general outside the city who calls himself Zhang Fei from Yan. He actually killed three generals of our army in succession.
"
"and......"
The messenger's face turned green with fright, and he took a deep breath and said: "Moreover, General Wang and General Li attacked together, but they were easily killed by this man with just two moves. Now the generals at the head of the city are too frightened to fight. I hope General
Make a decision early."
Everyone in the room was shocked, their eyes widened, and they showed horrified expressions:
"Ah? Kill three heroes in succession? How is this possible!"
"I thought that Liu Bei became the commander-in-chief because of his status as a member of the Han clan, but I never thought that his troops would have such a powerful general."
"Damn it, if this continues, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on for long."
"...."
At the same time, the chief general stood up, his eyes were as wide as copper bells, and he said in disbelief: "What did you say? Three powerful generals were easily killed by him? This guy named Liu Bei, his men are so powerful?"
"That's right!"
The messenger nodded affirmatively: "This man is indeed brave."
The top general frowned and pondered for a long time: "Now our army only has 8,000 soldiers and horses, and I'm afraid that we are no match for the thieves. If we continue like this, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on to Dingding Hedong."
"Everyone."
The top general glanced at everyone: "What do you think should happen now?"
A man wearing a Confucian robe appeared below: "General Fu, I think we should temporarily avoid fighting, and at the same time send someone to inform Chang'an to ask for support."
"The Tutor knows very well that if Shaanxi County is lost, the other party will be able to rush to the east of Hedong unscrupulously. As a result, our layout in Hedong will definitely be affected."
"So..."
The man in Confucian robes leaned forward and cupped his hands and said, "Taifu will never sit back and ignore Shaanxi County."
Fu Qian frowned and thought for a long time: "Well, that's all we can do now. Pass on the order and no one will go to war until reinforcements from the imperial court."
The ordering soldier bowed and raised his hands: "Here."
Not long after.
In the direction of the side gate of Shaanxian County, a fast horse flew out and headed straight to the direction of Chang'an in Guanzhong.
Although this fast horse was discovered by Liu Bei, he did not stop it. After all, their purpose in Shaanxi County was to contain more troops.
From Shaanxi County to Chang'an, you can reach it in one day by hurrying up.
Tufu's Mansion.
Yuan Wei held the letter in his hand, frowned, and said softly: "Liu Bei!? I didn't expect that this man would have such a powerful general under his command. If Shaanxi County cannot last, it will inevitably affect Hedong."
"Shiji."
Yuan Wei raised his eyes and looked at the people beside him: "Who do you think should be sent to support?"
In fact, Yuan Wei's troops in Shaanxian County and the Wuguan direction are already very good. They can be called the top combat power in the Chang'an direction. Huangfu Song naturally cannot move. Without him to garrison Wuguan, he is afraid that Nanyang direction
, will definitely kill them.
But......
Shaanxi County is also a key point.
Yuan Ji naturally understands the importance of Shaanxi County. Before the war in Hedong is over, Shaanxi County must not allow any mistakes: "Uncle and nephew think that Han Sui and Ma Teng must be sent to fight."
"Han Sui, Ma Teng?"
Yuan Wei naturally knew the strength of these two people.
Especially Ma Chao and Yan Xing's martial arts skills are definitely no less than Lu Bu's.
If these two people can take action, they can naturally defeat the mighty general named Zhang Fei: "However, these two people seem to be a little difficult to mobilize, and they obviously still have concerns."
"That's right."
Yuan Ji nodded affirmatively: "They do have concerns, so we have to mobilize them according to the emperor's order. If they don't obey the instructions, at least we can make some preparations in advance."
"But uncle, although these two people are in the period of hesitation, they should not dare to refuse the emperor's order. The last time my nephew was ordered to go, they were respectful to him."
Yuan Wei pinched a strand of goatee under his chin and pondered for a moment: "Even if Ma Teng and Han Sui don't come, we must borrow Ma Chao and Yan Xing. If they still don't listen to the instructions, then we won't be able to tolerate them.
"
"What uncle means is..."
Yuan Ji frowned and asked tentatively.
Yuan Wei exhaled, with a dark look on his face: "Liangzhou is too critical. We must not sit back and watch Han Sui and Ma Teng become the great enemies of the imperial court."
"Instead of worrying about it every day, it is better to take action in advance, deal with them, collect them, and get rid of them once and for all. This is a long-term stability plan."
Yuan Ji naturally knew the hidden dangers of Han Sui and Ma Teng, and nodded slowly: "They are located behind us. If they really defect to Nanyang, they will be a huge hidden danger for us."
"But uncle..."
Yuan Ji bowed his head and said softly: "No matter what, let's wait until my nephew comes back."
