Chapter 111 Four generals fight against Huang Zhong
"A letter from Zhang Yi?" Liu Pan frowned, took the letter and read it. He was overjoyed and laughed loudly and said, "Haha, I have nothing to worry about at home."
"What did the letter say?" Chen Qin asked.
Liu Pan handed the letter to Chen Qin and said with his hands behind his back: "Liu Zhang has done many unjust things. Zhang Yi is afraid that if Liu Zhang is destroyed, we will attack him. When it comes to wealthy families, who can compare with him in Jingnan? Zhang Yi, my son."
"I ordered Jin Xuan to stay at the camp in You County, Huang Zhong led 5,000 people as the vanguard, and I brought 10,000 horses as the middle army. Chen Qin, Liu Du, and Zhang Sheng went out with the army. This time, I want to personally attack Liu Zhang."
Chen Qin was slightly worried and said: "Brother, although Liu Zhang is cruel and unkind, his strategy in the three battles of Fucheng, Brazil and Hanzhong was outstanding. This time he used a chain plan to destroy Han Xuan's 30,000 troops. You must not underestimate him."
Liu Pan snorted softly: "My master has not been carried away yet, and I have never despised Liu Zhang, but we have internal support, and Liu Zhang must be defeated this time."
Liu Pan didn't believe that Han Xuan, a famous man in Changsha, would sincerely seek refuge with a butcher like Liu Zhang.
The warm winter sun shines on the banks of the Yuanshui River. All the Sichuan troops have withdrawn, leaving behind a charred grassland and piles of charcoal-black corpses.
Liu Zhang and Han Xuan mounted their horses on the road, went up the Yuan River, and entered Hanshou. When they arrived at Hanshou City, Han Xuan finally couldn't help but asked: "Lord, where are my brother and those Jingzhou soldiers and horses?"
Liu Zhang laughed loudly and said: "General Han, there is no need to worry. I have appointed your younger brother as the prefect of Wuling. You also know that I killed many traitors there, and I urgently need a general like your younger brother to guard it."
"My lord, my brother Han has no words to repay your kindness. However, Han Shou is the military ration road in Jingzhou, and Liu Pan's son will definitely attack. Shouldn't my lord send some new soldiers to guard it?" Han Xuan asked tentatively, if he didn't have his own soldiers and horses.
, told him how to respond internally to Liu Pan and give Liu Zhang a fatal blow.
Liu Zhang said proudly: "We are not bound to attack. Liu Pan has already led 15,000 soldiers and horses. However, I have 8,000 elites. How can I still not defend Han Shou?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Han Xuan echoed repeatedly, thinking that all Liu Zhang's troops and horses were stationed in Hanshou. After his younger brother defected, Liu Zhang's return was cut off. As long as Liu Pan broke Hanshou, Liu Zhang would not be able to fly even with his wings.
After leaving Jingzhou, it seems that I should contribute something, otherwise there will be no hope for the post of governor of Changsha.
The Sichuan army was stationed at Hanshou, and soon the veteran general Huang Zhong led the Jingzhou vanguard troops to the gates of Hanshou City.
"Hey, do the Sichuan soldiers in the city dare to fight me, Huang Zhong, for three hundred rounds?"
Liu Zhang led his generals to the top of the city. He saw a fifty-year-old veteran in the city, wearing yellow armor and a carved hard bow on his back. He pointed his sword at the city in provocation. The sound shocked the whole country. This was the imposing manner of the five tiger generals in history.
Like a rainbow, majestic.
The Jingzhou soldiers yelled and cursed wildly. Samoko couldn't hold back his anger and angrily said to Liu Zhang: "My lord, let me chop off that old man's head."
Liu Zhang glanced at Shamoko angrily: "Are you going? Not only will you not be able to chop off the old man's head, but he will also let the old man chop off your head."
"Lord, please go ahead." Zhang Ren asked for orders.
Liu Zhang took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "General Zhang, how many times have I told you that you are a general and the future commander-in-chief of the armed forces. How can you be brave and ruthless and show off the courage of an ordinary man?"
Zhang Ren paid his respects and said, "I will understand, but if you let Huang Zhong scold him like this, the morale of the soldiers will inevitably weaken."
As one of the Five Tiger Generals canonized by Liu Bei, Huang Zhong was a top-notch general in the Three Kingdoms. Liu Zhang looked back at his crooked melons, Zhang Ren, Yan Yan, and Shamoko. They were so powerful. None of them were Huang.
Be loyal to your opponent.
"If you're lazy, just be lazy. Huang Zhong's few soldiers and horses can't really attack. I order that no one can go to war. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed. In addition." Liu Zhang pointed at Samoko and several people, and clicked them one by one.
: "You guys are all a bunch of reckless men and you are useless. The defense of the east city gate tonight will be left to General Han. Huang Zhong is so brave, I am afraid that only General Han can hold on to the city."
As Liu Zhang spoke, he put his hands on Han Xuan's shoulders and said with emotion: "Thank you, General Han, for entrusting the defense of the East City Gate to you, so I feel relieved."
Han Xuan was stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Thanks to my lord's trust, Han Xuan will go through fire and water."
"Please." Liu Zhang patted Han Xuan on the shoulder and left the city.
At night, a soldier came to report: "My lord, Han Xuan mobilized several guards at the east wall and indeed sent people out of the city."
Liu Zhang and Fazheng next to him looked at each other and smiled, and said to Zhang Ren: "General Zhang, it's up to you this time. If you can't capture Huang Zhong alive, you will shoot him with random arrows."
"yes."
At midnight, Huang Zhong marched out with his troops, came to the East City Gate, and ordered the soldiers to raise fire three times. As expected, he saw the city gate slowly opening. Huang Zhong frowned, wondering why Han Xuan didn't send out the agreed code, but he couldn't control that much now.
, the city gate has been opened, Huang Zhong led his troops and horses into the city in the dark.
The moment they stepped into the city gate, a large number of defenders suddenly poured out of the city. Arrows were fired, and tung oil poured down. A row of crossbowmen directly in front of the city gate fired volleys at the narrow city gate. The Jingzhou Army
There were heavy casualties for a while. Huang Zhong was hit by an arrow in the chest. He hurriedly ordered a retreat, and the defenders from behind swarmed out.
"Kill."
The Sichuan army brandished its white-stemmed guns and roared out of the city gate. Jingzhou soldiers fled in panic. When Huang Zhong arrived at the camp, he saw a general standing at the entrance of the camp, none other than Yizhou General Zhang Ren.
"Huang Zhong, Zhang Ren has been waiting here for a long time."
Random arrows were fired, and Jingzhou was full of casualties. Huang Zhong was frightened and angry. He waved his sword and was about to attack the camp. He was persuaded by the deputy general and fled eastward. Just after passing a mountain forest, suddenly countless Sichuan troops rushed out from both sides. On the left, there were sand
Mo Ke and Yan Yan on the right, after a burst of arrows, surrounded Huang Zhong.
"Jingzhou soldiers, there is no way to retreat in front, and there are pursuers behind, so fight to the death."
Huang Zhong shouted loudly, reined in his horse and charged, slashing at Shamoko head-on. Shamoko hurriedly waved the caltrop bone to resist, but only one move. The caltrop almost escaped his hand, and the sword followed the trend, and Shamoko bent down and fell on his horse.
, narrowly avoiding Huang Zhong's swift and fierce attack.
The Jingzhou soldiers led by Huang Zhong were all Jingzhou elites, but their formation was in chaos. They fled in panic and were surrounded from all sides. They could no longer organize resistance. In the melee, they were even less likely to be opponents of the barbarian army and the Dongzhou soldiers. Yan Yan and Sha
Mo Ke, Zhang Ren, and Leng Bao arrived from all sides, and the Jingzhou soldiers were massacred one-sidedly. Soon Huang Zhong fell into a tight siege alone.
"Everyone, come together and capture Huang Zhong."
Zhang Ren shouted and attacked Huang Zhong together with Yan Yan, Shamoke and Leng Bao. Leng Bao took the lead. Huang Zhong took advantage of the lack of encirclement and slashed at Leng Bao with his backhand. Leng Bao counterattacked with his knife and was shocked by the knife.
He fell off his horse and flew several feet away. He vomited blood and could not get up again.
At this moment, Zhang Ren, Yan Yan, and Shamoke arrived together. Yan Yan and Shamoke were on the left and right, while Zhang Ren attacked the front. Although Huang Zhong's force was high, his moves were not as good as Zhang Ren's.
The Bird Chao Phoenix Spear was superb. Under attack from three sides, it suddenly surged from left to right, and gradually became unable to hold on.
A gun, a knife, and a caltrop all pressed down on Huang Zhong's sword, forcing old Huang Zhong's upper body to fall back.
"Ah~~"
Huang Zhong's eyes were split, and he shouted to the sky. He used all his strength and defeated the three generals' strong offensive with one move. His horse neighed wildly. Huang Zhong slashed at the injured Samoko with a knife. Samoke was horrified and raised his head.
As soon as Iron Tribulus blocked it, he immediately vomited blood. Huang Zhong saw an opening and immediately rushed out to kill the general.
"Where to go." Yan Yan yelled and was about to catch up, but Huang Zhong suddenly turned around and shot an arrow at Yan Yan. Yan Yan was caught off guard and was shot in the shoulder. Huang Zhong took advantage of the chaos and rushed out of the encirclement.
"Shoot the arrow, don't let Huang Zhong escape."
Zhang Ren shouted loudly, and the Sichuan army immediately took out their bows and arrows, and fired thousands of arrows at Huang Zhong. Huang Zhong blocked it with his sword, but he was still hit by dozens of arrows, and the horse's butt was dug into a hornet's nest.
