The smoke and dust rolled, and the iron hooves rumbled.
Zhang Fei led his army to attack Xudu, along the way, that was fast! fast! fast! fast!
Zhang Fei knew very well that his mission was different from Zhao Yun. The main task of Zhao Yun's troops was to capture a stable rear, provide a stable base for overall combat, and lay a solid fortress for cross-sea combat. However, Zhang Fei's main task was
Take down Xu Du as soon as possible, seize political advantages, and then shake Cao Cao's political system from the foundation.
Although Zhang Fei was not very keen to understand the advantages of political systems, political effects, etc., this thing was instilled by Guo Jia, and Zhang Fei also knew its importance. Therefore, Zhang Fei understood a truth deeply.
That is speed! Speed! No matter how fast! It is like the lecture the wealthy fan gave him to the army.
Zhang Fei faithfully implemented this point. Along the way, he broke through the pass and broke through the city. All the trivial matters, including those who were safe and left behind, were left to the subsequent landing troops. That speed,
There is absolutely nothing to say! No news can exceed Zhang Fei's advancement speed.
But! Just as Zhang Fei came to Xudu, something went wrong.
Cheng Yu, who was left behind by Xu Du, was a wise man. He was also the only confidant who was leading the army outside and was at ease to stay in his hometown. He was the guarantee that Cao Cao would fight outside with peace of mind. Now, the bad things are broken by Cheng Yu.
Nothing else, this decisive battle between Cao Cao and Liu Ming was an extremely critical battle, and it would never be a loss. Cheng Yu naturally added 120,000 prudence. The degree of prudence was far from that.
Far better than Cao Cao going south to fight Sun Quan!
The decisive battle with Sun Quan was just an invasion of Cao Cao, and it had nothing to do with life and death. Moreover, Sun Quan was just a prince with shallow foundation and had no impact on Cao Cao's inner foundation at all.
But! Liu Ming is completely different. Liu Ming has a strong power and a deep foundation. The decisive battle with Liu Ming is not only a life-saving battle. Outside the battlefield, the hidden unrest within Cao Cao will also be due to the seedlings of hidden chaos.
And it broke out. Just like when Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou, Liu Bei, who Cao Cao appointed, and Chen Gong, borrowed the emperor's pocket to counterattack Yanzhou together.
Now Liu Ming from Youzhou is not only like the ministers in the court, but now he has received the emperor's edict and jade seal and has promoted himself to the emperor. Although Liu Ming's trip is a little flawed, he is also aware of this.
The name was corrected. Moreover, even the emperor had said about abdication at the court meeting, but Liu Ming did this justified it. It is really difficult to calculate how many ministers in the court would turn against each other secretly because of this.
In addition, how many dependents under Cao Cao would be shaken by this? It would be immeasurable to make the decision to switch to Liu Ming like a fence-bearer.
Cheng Yu, who fully understood this, did not want to have such a rebellion like Liu Bei in Xudu.
Therefore, Cheng Yu planned ahead and prevented problems before they happened. In order to prevent internal rebellion, he shook the foundation of Cao Cao's rule. After Cao Cao led the army away, he not only ordered a curfew in the whole city and supervision of entry and exit. He was also in Xudu's four
Twenty miles away from the city gate, each of them was built with a large camp, stationed 5,000 troops, and stationed on the road, becoming the Liaoying and satellite city of Xudu.
This was originally a measure for Cheng Yu to prevent civil strife, but now it just prevented Zhang Fei from progressing, making Xu Du the first to discover Zhang Fei.
Facing the camp guards in Xuzhou, with the surname Qin and Qi, who were not old, he was not panicked when he found Zhang Fei's troops coming, but was extremely excited. He sent people to report to Xu Du from the back camp. At the same time, he ordered the troops to go out and go
The battalion intercepted Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei rode ahead and ran in front. He was surprised to see someone lined up to treat him.
Along the way, no of the city levels that Zhang Fei met were either falling in sight or unable to retreat. There was no such thing as a formation. Zhang Fei stopped the horse's head, and the cavalry behind him were immediately
Stop.
"Ha! Who is coming?" Before Zhang Fei could speak, Qin Qi shouted loudly and asked majesticly.
When Zhang Fei looked at the young general in front of him, he was very majestic and said with a funny look: "I am Zhang Fei, the general of the Five Tigers of the Great Han Dynasty!"
"Where do you want to go?" Qin Qi asked very seriously.
When Zhang Fei heard this, he was so mysterious and didn't laugh. Didn't he ask me knowingly? Where else can I go from here thousands of miles away? Of course, he attacked Xu Du. However, Zhang Fei looked at the little guy and heard his name, and actually
He dared to ask this, and he couldn't help but make fun of it: "I want to go to Xudu and rescue the court officials!"
"Can there be any official documents from the Prime Minister?" Qin Qi asked strictly in accordance with the regulations.
Zhang Fei didn't fall off the horse. Isn't that wrong? I'm a military horse from Youzhou, why do I want Cao Cao's official documents? Does this kid want me to laugh to death and win without a fight? Zhang Fei, Guo Jia, Liu
It turns out that they have been in a long time and have seen many humorous cells.
Zhang Fei smiled with a cracked mouth and said, "Baby, a certain family is not controlled by Cao Cao, where did the official documents come from?"
Unexpectedly, Qin Qi said seriously: "I was ordered by Cheng Yu's military advisor to guard this village. Without the official documents of the Prime Minister, I will not be allowed to pass it! You can go back."
Zhang Fei was a little stupid. I'm going back? Where can I go? Is this kid okay? Suddenly, Zhang Fei thought of a possibility that this kid wouldn't have deliberately delayed time and informed Xu Du.
Zhang Fei couldn't help but say angrily: "Doll! Don't delay time! Do you know that those who block my way will be under my spear!"
Zhang Fei said this, it was so majestic and murderous intent. Especially those who had their ring eyes wide open and their fierce light was revealed, and those who were timid would definitely be scared to death.
But what was discouraging was that Qin Qi said disdainfully: "You can only kill those unknown generals. How can you kill me?"
Zhang Fei was furious and shouted sternly: "A certain Hulao Pass fights against Lu Bu! Your Zhang He and Cao Ren are all defeated generals under my command. How can you compare to me?"
Qin Qi said disdainfully: "Lu Bu is an unknown person! Zhang He and Cao Ren, the two generals, have a reputation, but they are successful in military strategies, not bravery. If you want to pass the test, you have to show some real skills.
Don’t fool me with these empty words!”
Zhang Fei was completely speechless. Lu Bu was all the nameless. Zhang He, Cao Ren was really unable to get on the table. This kid was so arrogant, probably not delaying the time, but because he was kicking a donkey when he was a child.
Zhang Fei shouted angrily: "Doll! Come on your life!" Then he shook the snake spear and urged the horse to go up. At this time, Zhang Fei was so angry that he forgot the military rules of Youzhou by Qin Qi. The general was not separated from his position, and he even cared about it.
Nothing can be bullied by the big one.
But Qin Qi was not vague at all. Seeing Zhang Fei rushing over, he shouted: "Good it!" He also activated his mount and faced Zhang Fei straight.
The two riders met together like lightning. But beyond everyone's expectations, there were no gorgeous moves or thrilling duels. With just one move, Zhang Fei picked Qin Qi up with one move.
Not only the military soldiers on both sides were surprised at this ending. Even Zhang Fei was very surprised: Why is this guy so crazy about speaking, but why is he so vulnerable? But since his martial arts are so low, how can he dare to do it again?
He was trying hard to hedge? Judging from his sprinting posture, he did not deviate at all until his death. He was really brave. However, he didn't know how long his Snake Spear was longer than an ordinary spear?
What's the point of trying so hard?
Zhang Fei was puzzled, but Zhang Fei was not the kind of person who was stubborn. He couldn't figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it. Then he shouted: "Qin Qi is dead! You haven't surrendered yet, when will you wait!
”
Zhang Fei roared, like a thunder bomb in the clear sky. The soldiers under Qin Qi were only 5,000. As early as when facing Zhang Fei's army, it was already weak. It was all Qin Qi's confidence that infected the people.
, making them dare to fight Zhang Fei's army. Now Qin Qi died unexpectedly so simply and quickly, these soldiers were already confused. In addition, Zhang Fei shouted like thunder. His hands trembled immediately, "Bang
!” With a sound, the weapon fell to the ground unconsciously.
And with this first sound, the sound of the weapon landing on the ground was like the water of the Yangtze River, endless.
Zhang Fei didn't talk nonsense, and then led a large army through the camp and rushed straight to Xudu.
The twenty-mile road was running, and the cavalry arrived in a blink of an eye. But at this time, Cheng Yu had already received the battle report from Qin Qi, and the city gate was closed and he was strictly prepared.
Zhang Fei was very angry. He was broken by his cavalry before he could pass the city gate. This might have been delayed by that kid.
Zhang Fei was fierce, stood at the city, and shouted loudly: "Oh, oh! Zhang Yide, the general of the Five Tigers of a certain family! Now lead the army to this point. Quickly open the city gate and accept surrender! Raoer and others' lives! If not!
When the city is broken, it is the moment when you die!"
Cheng Yu stood at the top of the city, not caring about Zhang Fei's angry shout. He said calmly: "Zhang Fei! This city is where the emperor rests. You have not entered the capital without an imperial edict, which is a rebellion! Now you have entered my homeland, if you wait
My prime minister returns, and you will never escape and ascend to heaven! I know how powerful you are, quickly dismount and surrender, abandon the darkness and turn to the light, I will plead for you and guarantee you a high official and a generous salary!"
Zhang Fei was even more angry when he heard this. But at this time, the gate of Xudu was closed. No matter how skilled Zhang Fei was in high spirits, he could not jump up to the top of the city. Zhang Fei had to order camping and mobilize self-propelled artillery to step forward.
But before Zhang Fei's self-propelled artillery could be displayed, Kong Xiu, the leader of the barracks outside the south gate of Xu Du, had already received the report, and immediately led his troops to support Xu Du. At this time, Zhang Fei's self-propelled artillery had not been adjusted in place, so
You can't let someone move forward.
Zhang Fei immediately led people to stop him and killed him.
The soldiers led by Kong Xiu were only 5,000, which was disproportionate to Zhang Fei's army. However, Kong Xiu ignored the gap in military strength with his bravery and fought fearlessly at Zhang Fei. It was really respectable.
However, Kong Xiu's force was not worthy of his courage. Kong Xiu did not block Zhang Fei's move, and was then stabbed to death by Zhang Fei on the spot. Five thousand soldiers immediately fled to all directions.
But just as Zhang Fei was dealing with Kong Xiu's troops, the camp guarding outside the north gate of Xudu also came over under the leadership of the chief general Meng Tan. Zhang Fei hurried back to deal with Meng Tan.
Meng Tan used two swords, and he was also the best player in Cao Cao's army. At this time, following Cheng Yu's instructions, he attacked Zhang Fei's team with both wings, which was even more appropriate. But Kong Xiu's ability was too inferior!
He was stabbed to death by Zhang Fei. His subordinates either ran away or surrendered, and did not delay Zhang Fei for a moment, which gave Zhang Fei time to deal with it.
Zhang Fei looked at Meng Tan waving his sword from afar, knowing that he was a leader, and he was not well-known at the moment, so he shouted: "Die for me!" The snake spear shook, and the black horse under his crotch was like lightning
After jumping, he came to Meng Tan, and the snake spear pierced out.
Meng Tan's two swords were not as long as Zhang Fei's Snake Spear, so he hurriedly sealed it with his two swords. But Zhang Fei's Snake Spear was made of steel, and the force was more than thirty when he penetrated the piercing! Meng Tan's Snake Spear
The two swords were blocked, but they could not touch Zhang Fei's Snake Spear. They had to watch Zhang Fei's Snake Spear pierced through his chest helplessly, and died unwillingly.
However! Kong Xiu and Meng Tan's sacrifice were not without any value. Only loud rumbling sounds were heard, and the earth was trembling. Zhang Fei's army immediately suffered numerous casualties and injured.
Cheng Yu's original plan was to rely on the army from both sides of the left and right to take advantage of the arrival of Zhang Fei's army, attacking Zhang Fei's main formation, and then ordered the army to leave the city and defeat Zhang Fei in one fell swoop. Now, although because of Zhang,
Fei's Wu Yong, Kong Xiu and Meng Tan were defeated too quickly, so that Cheng Yu could not send troops according to the established plan.
However, Kong Xiu and Meng Tan's two armies did make Zhang Fei very busy for a while, causing Zhang Fei to make mistakes in his busyness. He forgot the range of the Youzhou Thunder and Cao Cao's flame bomb.
Although the range of self-propelled cannons in Youzhou is farther than that of Cao Cao's thunderbolt chariots, the problem is that Cao Cao's thunderbolt chariots are now on the city, while Zhang Fei's self-propelled cannons are all under the city. There is a big gap between them.
The height advantage is equal to the two. Youzhou's self-propelled artillery really does not have much advantage in range.
Zhang Fei was originally planning to siege the city, but the self-propelled artillery was sent to the front of the army and was closely guarded by heavy troops. However, this caused a big problem with the originally foolproof siege step, which caused a foolproof siege.
.
Just when Zhang Fei was busy dealing with the enemy troops on both sides and had no time to take care of it, the self-propelled artillery was too close to Xu Du to attack Xu Du, and Cheng Yu seized the opportunity.
Cheng Yu immediately ordered the thunderbolt cart to shoot flame bombs and bombard Zhang Fei's original formation. Dozens of fireballs crossed the sky, and the self-propelled cannons placed under the city and protected by heavy troops had no room to dodge, and were bombarded.
What's even more unfortunate is that the thunderous thunder were also detonated by the fire. The shocking loud noise shocked all the soldiers, and the flying shrapnel greatly killed the guards of Youzhou.
But! These are nothing. The most important thing is that Zhang Fei’s main weapon to siege the city is gone. Can Zhang Fei still capture Xu Du?
