Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Chapter 436: Liu Bei asks for help

Although Xun Zheng personally killed a fleeing Sergeant Yuan Shu, thousands of soldiers retreated together, and Xun Zheng could not suppress it either.

In desperation, Xun Zheng had to preach: "Mingjin will retreat and fight tomorrow!"

Although Guan Yu commanded well and fought back, the young men in the city were recruited temporarily, so even though Yuan Shujun was barely repelled, his own loss was not small, it could be said that he killed one thousand and lost eight hundred.

"Mr. Xianhe, I trouble you to draft a letter to Brother."

Jian Yong was taken aback when he heard Guan Yu's words: "Ask the Lord for help?"

Guan Yu shook his head: "No, but to report to my eldest brother. Our army is now besieged by Ji Ling Tuan. It will take a few days for my eldest brother to know that if my eldest brother comes to help, it will be no good to be ambushed by Ji Ling. "

Jian Yong understood: "The second general meant, let me write to the lord to analyze the interests, please don't send troops?"

"Not bad." Guan Yu nodded and said, "The food and grass in Yingyang City is enough for the army for one month. Don't worry for the time being. First use defensive warfare to consume Yuan Jun's spirit. After one month, he will fight the enemy inside and outside with Big Brother!"

Jian Yong nodded: "Okay, Yong will pick up the pen here."

...

"What? Thirty thousand troops besieged Yingyang?"

Zhang Fei suddenly became impatient and looked at Liu Bei: "Brother, we brought all the main forces to Chen Guo. How can we withstand the siege of 30,000 troops?"

After that, Zhang Fei directly said to Cao Bao: "Cao Bao, you will assist the eldest brother, I will lead the soldiers back to help the second brother." After Zhang Fei said this, he turned around and left.

"Ying De!" Liu Bei frowned.

"Big brother!" Zhang Fei turned around and said anxiously: "Second brother and Yingchuan are at stake. Can I wait for An to save?"

Liu Bei frowned and said: "Chang Yun's letter has already said that if our army is eager to return assistance, it will inevitably be used by Ji Ling. Maybe Ji Ling has already set up ambush halfway and is ready to ambush our army."

Zhang Fei said impatiently: "What should I do?"

"Chang Yun said that he has voluntarily given up several cities to shrink his forces, launching the youth, and defending the city for a while, so that we don't have to worry, it is best to wait until after January, when Yuan Jun's spirit is lost, our army should cooperate again inside and outside." Liu Beishou Slow down.

"Ugh!"

Zhang Fei sighed and had to sit down, unhappy.

"Lord, Zhu has a plan to rescue the second general."

Before Liu Bei asked, Zhang Fei immediately said anxiously: "Mr. Zizhong, don't buy medicine in the gourd, and quickly tell me to Lao Zhang."

Mi Zhu smiled slightly, and said, "The lord, General Cao, and the third general know how Liu Cheqi crosses the world?"

"Liu Cheqi supports the emperor, has righteous status, and is naturally invincible." Cao Bao said.

Zhang Fei replied: "You must have courage to fight with your husband. Yuqing must be first in every battle, and the soldiers will fight for their lives. The Liangzhou army will naturally cross the world."

Hearing what Cao Bao and Zhang Fei said, Mi Zhu shook his head slightly, which was obviously wrong.

Liu Bei smiled slightly: "Okay, Zizhong, you don't want to betray you. Rescuing soldiers is like fighting a fire. The sooner the better, let's talk quickly."

Mi Zhu nodded and said sternly: "Although the land of the Central Plains is rich, it does not produce horses; although the land of Liangzhou is bitterly cold, the horses are very tall. The reason why Liu Cheqi can cross the world depends on the sharp and unparalleled cavalry."

"Liangzhou horses are rampant all over the world. Although Liu Cheqi has insufficient food and grass, it is not a problem to send a small force to support our army. Please Liu Cheqi to send thousands of cavalry over to threaten Yuan Shujun from the flanks, making Ji Ling not a problem. Dare to attack Yingyang with all his strength. When our army attacks again, it will surely be able to defeat the enemy." Mi Zhu is confident.

Liu Bei nodded, admiringly said: "Yes, our army has few soldiers after all, so it's not bad to ask Yuqing for help."

"In that case, Zizhong, you drafted it yourself, and immediately wrote to Puyang, explaining the detailed military situation of our army, and let Yuqing make a decision."

...

Puyang.

"Yuan Shu dispatched General Ji Ling to invade Yingchuan with 30,000 troops. Guan Yu confronted Yuan Jun in Yingyang. Liu Bei was worried that the soldiers would not be able to save Guan Yu, so he asked the general for help."

After Jia Xu finished reading, he looked at Liu Ye: "General, Liu Bei meant to ask our army to send a small number of cavalry straight into Yingyang, threatening Yuan Jun from the side, so that Ji Ling did not dare to attack Yingyang with all his strength."

Liu Ye nodded and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Yuan Shu to be richer and richer than our army. The three armies captured Yuzhou, Xuzhou, and Yangzhou respectively, no worse than the first emperor to annex the six countries."

Guo Jia laughed: "The general can really make a joke. Yuan Shu divides his troops into battle is the way to destroy himself."

"Three-way division of forces, if there is a difference in any one way, the other two will definitely be affected. This is one shot and the whole body will be affected." Guo Jiazheng said: "So Yuzhou must win this battle, and this can also curb Yuan Shu's expansion pace of."

Liu Ye was quite agreeable: "Well, Feng Xiao said it makes sense."

Jia Xu asked: "Our army has insufficient food and grass. I just calculated it. At most, I can spend two thousand horses for a month. Do you know who the general will be sent to fight? Is it General Ma Chao or Pound?"

The demand for food and grass for cavalry is far greater than that for infantry, because war horses do not just graze on the ground. The long-term battle requires war horses to take fine forage. Therefore, the amount of food and grass required for two thousand cavalry dispatches is enough to reach six. Thousands of infantry.

Both Ma Chao and Pound were lieutenants in the Liangzhou Army, very good at cavalry combat, but Liu Ye slowly shook his head.

"I thought that Xu should be sent away."

Jia Xu frowned: "Xu Gongming? This person can be regarded as a strong general, but I am afraid that the cavalry cannot be compared with Ma Chao and Pound, right? They are from Xiliang."

Guo Jia also looked at Liu Ye with great interest: "Yes, Xu Gongming was born in the Baibo Yellow Turban. No matter his record or qualifications, he can't compare with Ma Pang. Why did the general only choose Xu Huang?"

Liu Ye smiled, and then said sternly: "Bian Que once said that his brother's medical skills are so good that he is not famous because his medical skills work in the early stages of the patient, so his reputation is not well known."

"As the saying goes, those who are good fighters have no magnificent merits, Xu Gongming is a talent in a million, look at it," Liu Ye affirmed.

Footsteps sounded outside the hall.

"What is going on with the general?"

Xu Huang clasped his fists inside and bowed in salute.

"Xu Huang listens to the order!"

Xu Huang's spirits lifted up: "The end is here!"

Liu Ye said solemnly: "I would have ridden two thousand cavalry with you, going south to aid Yingchuan, and coping with Guan Yu to harass Ji Ling's 30,000 army, dare you?"

Xu Huang's heart was hot, but he didn't expect the general to value himself so much?

"General Rumeng will not give up, Huang will definitely live up to his mission!" Xu Huang said calmly.

"Okay, take the order!"
