Chapter 404 Zhang Yan surrounds the city and joins forces with Zhao Yun to stab!
Zhao Yun was thinking a lot at this moment. Lu Xuan was clearly king in the south and was the powerful King of Wu. Such a king of a country actually risked his life and appeared in the hinterland of Yuan Shao.
Once Yuan Shao knew that Lu Xuan was in Jizhou, you can imagine how crazy Yuan Shao would be, and he would definitely send a large army to surround Zhending County and capture Lu Xuan.
Even, he wanted to kill Lu Xuan.
Zhao Yun regained his composure in a blink of an eye, with a polite smile on his face, and said neither humble nor arrogantly: "Zhao Yun is honored that the King of Wu has come to the Zhao family in person. But what is the purpose of King Wu coming to Zhending County?"
Lu Xuan said directly: "Of course I am here for Zilong, otherwise, why would I take the risk of coming to Jizhou?"
Zhao Yun shook his head and chuckled, and said: "Zhao Yun is a commoner and is not worth mentioning. There is nothing worthy of the King of Wu's attention."
Although it was King Wu Lu Xuan who came, Zhao Yun did not relax his guard.
The opponent is King Wu.
He was a commoner with no reputation, so Lu Xuan went to great lengths to invite him, which made him a little uneasy and felt a little unreal.
Lu Xuan shook his head and said: "Zilong galloped outside the Great Wall, drove away Wuhuan, and defeated Xianbei. He is full of courage, how can he be an unknown person? Gongsun Zan does not know the goods and does not use Zilong. It is Gongsun Zan who has no eyesight and does not know how to employ people."
"But in my eyes, Zilong is an invincible martial artist. He is the most rare and peerless tiger general in the world. How can I not come when such a person is left in the countryside?"
When Zhao Yun heard this, he shook his head and said: "I just followed General Gongsun on the expedition. I have no achievements and is not worth mentioning."
Lu Xuandao: "Zilong is too humble."
"Boom! Boom!"
Suddenly, a knock on the door came from outside the study. The housekeeper hurried in and reported: "Sir, County Magistrate Zhao is here and said that he has important matters to discuss."
"Zilong, Zilong, something bad is going on."
Zhao Cheng's voice came again.
Without waiting for the butler to notify him, Zhao Cheng strode in directly.
When he saw Lu Xuan, he glanced at it and ignored it. Then he looked at Zhao Yun and said urgently: "Zilong, that son of a bitch Zhang Yan brought a large number of Black Mountain bandits to block the west gate of the county. Let's really
Dingxian County provides grain. Zhang Yan asks for 20,000 shi of grain this time, what do you think he should do?"
Zhao Yun said directly: "Twenty thousand shi of grain is not a small amount. What's more, the Black Mountain bandits are greedy. If they give grain today, Zhang Yan will definitely push for more grain and continue to beg for grain. As before, he cannot give in and defends the county. I will
If you don’t believe it, Zhang Yan really dares to attack the city.”
Zhao Cheng sighed: "Zhang Yan has never succeeded before, so a lot of people were mobilized this time. I took a look and saw that there were Black Mountain bandits everywhere outside the city, probably no less than tens of thousands of them. Zilong, can you hold on?"
"
Zhao Yun looked serious and said firmly: "You must defend even if you can't defend. Now if we retreat, we will reach an abyss. When dealing with bandits, you must be stronger than him."
Zhao Cheng looked worried and said: "I will immediately make arrangements to mobilize the people in the city to resist, and then notify other families to dispatch some private soldiers to help defend."
"Why must we choose defense?"
Lu Xuan's voice suddenly sounded.
Zhao Cheng heard Lu Xuan's voice, looked at Lu Xuan carefully, and saw that Lu Xuan looked confident. The key was Lu Xuan's demeanor, which reminded him of how he felt when facing Chang Shan, the Prime Minister, who had the majesty of a superior.
No, the other party is more powerful than the Prime Minister.
Zhao Cheng thought that this should be Zhao Yun's friend, so he held up his hands and said, "May I ask your surname?"
Lu Xuan smiled and said: "I'm here, Lu Hai Kong!"
Zhao Cheng said seriously: "Master Lu Haikong said why we need to defend? Could it be that Master Lu has other ways."
Zhao Yun followed and looked over.
Although Lu Xuan's alias Lu Hai Kong sounds strange, Lu Xuan was young, fought in the north and south, and destroyed many princes. Such a person must have a different perspective.
Lu Xuan looked calm and ordered: "Just now, Magistrate Zhao said that there may be more than 10,000 Black Mountain bandits gathered outside. However, the Black Mountain bandits are composed of refugees after all. Ten thousand Black Mountain bandits, the number of truly capable people, can be
Three thousand is pretty good.”
"Three thousand Montenegrin bandits who can fight are not the most elite, they are ordinary troops. I think a thousand of the Montenegrin elites who really dare to fight and kill are quite good."
"What are you afraid of such a Black Mountain bandit?"
"Zilong's martial arts skills are astonishing. He also has some troops around him. Two to three hundred people should be fine."
"It just so happens that I went out this time and brought with me the thirty most elite soldiers, all elites from hundreds of battles. As long as Zilong takes part in the battle with his troops, and with the help of my people, he can go directly out of the city and kill the Black Mountain bandits.
.”
"If our enemy is Cao Cao, one of Yuan Shao's elite troops, and you defeat him, he can still surround us and continue fighting."
"The Black Mountain Bandits are different. One of the biggest characteristics of the Black Mountain Bandits is that they are thieves and are made up of refugees."
Lu Xuan's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he said: "They have no problem fighting with the wind. They will become more courageous as they fight, and they will continue to snatch. But when they encounter a headwind, they will be in an adverse situation, and everyone will panic and run away. The final result is,
It's the collapse of the entire army."
Zhao Cheng's eyes shone with admiration on his face, and he praised: "Zilong, what your good friend Mr. Lu said is really good."
Zhao Yun was also weighing the pros and cons in his mind.
He admitted that Lu Xuan's arrangement made sense, but Lu Xuan was the King of Wu.
In front of Zhao Cheng, Zhao Yun could not directly tell Lu Xuan's identity, so he said: "Master Lu is willing to participate in the war, but aren't you afraid of falling into a desperate situation? We have few people. Even if I can summon three hundred people and fall into it,
The consequences could be disastrous."
Lu Xuan looked confident and said with a smile: "Zilong is full of courage and has superb martial arts. I believe in you."
Zhao Yun was a little stunned when he heard this.
What a bet!
However, after hearing Lu Xuan's trusting words, Zhao Yun felt a surge of pride and ambition in his heart. An overlord like Lu Xuan was not afraid of life or death and dared to choose to believe in him. What else did he have to worry and fear?
Zhao Yun looked at Lu Xuan and said loudly: "Mr. Lu, we will discuss our matters in detail after this battle."
"It's a deal."
A smile appeared on Lu Xuan's face.
Zhang Yan came very well this time.
He and Zhao Yun had been on the battlefield together and carried guns together, so naturally they were different; they were comrades-in-arms.
In order to repay Zhang Yan, let's beat Zhang Yan hard.
Lu Xuan said: "Zilong summoned his troops. My people are outside the house and can go out of the city to fight at any time."
Zhao Yun nodded, looked at Zhao Cheng, and ordered: "Cousin, you go rectify the county's troops and guard them at the top of the city. I will take the family's three hundred troops and go out to fight with Master Lu. When we are defeated
Zhang Yan, look for the opportunity and come out to cover it up."
"clear!"
Zhao Cheng nodded and answered.
He left in a hurry.
Zhao Yun put on his armor, brought in war horses, and summoned his family's three hundred troops. Only a dozen of his troops had horses, and the rest were infantry. Raising three hundred cavalry was not something that a little money could sustain.
Zhao Yun brought three hundred steps, Lu Xuan also asked Xu Chu to bring armor, and everyone gathered at the door of Zhao's house.
Lu Xuan looked at Zhao Yun's troops. They were all tall and powerful, wearing armor and holding Huanshou swords. They were all fierce men.
Zhao Yun also saw more than 30 of Lu Xuan's personal guards, all with strong backs and sharp eyes. They were all wearing armor and wearing clothes on the outside, holding swords in their hands, sitting astride horses. Accompanied by the neighing of the war horses, murderous aura lingered, making him
There is a chilling atmosphere in people.
Xu Chu followed Lu Xuan, standing like an iron tower, which was daunting.
He is a master.
Zhao Yun instantly had expectations for Xu Chu's strength.
It is indeed Lu Xuan's army.
Zhao Yun suddenly felt proud. With such an army, even if there were only more than 300 people, there would be no problem in killing the Black Mountain bandits.
Zhao Yun said: "Master Lu will be responsible for the next command. What do you think?"
Lu Xuan nodded and said: "After we left the city, Zhongkang was on my left, Zilong was on my right, and the three of us took the lead. All the cavalry followed the three of us and charged, forming the sharpest knives to tear apart the Black Mountain bandits.
All the infantrymen followed behind to cover up the enemy's defense line. They worked together to kill the Montenegrin army."
Xu Chu responded angrily.
Zhao Yun also nodded in agreement.
"Set off!"
Lu Xuan rode forward quickly.
Xu Chu and Zhao Yun followed on the left and right, and the three hundred and thirty soldiers rushed forward quickly, heading straight to the west gate of Zhending County.
