The army in Xuchang was about to move. Cao Cao, wearing armor and carrying a sword, slowly stepped onto the carriage, but saw a flying horse coming from a distance to report.

After a while, Xiahou Dun led a small group to the front of the formation.

Cao Cao asked curiously:"When was it noisy?"

The principal kowtowed, raised his hands and said:"Report to the Prime Minister, three days ago the champion Hou Qianjun captured the 84 counties of Ruyin, and I was specially ordered to report on flying horse."

Cao Cao was stunned, and then How can you say that Ruyin is also a county? Zhang Wu's Flying Bear Army just set out three days ago, and they conquered eighty-four cities in one day? This is simply a fantasy.

Cao Cao asked curiously:"How did Zi Qian attack the city?"

The principal bowed again:"The Champion Marquis did not attack the city, he just asked General Hua Xiong to open the gate of Ruyin County and ordered General Hua Xiong to seize the county magistrates and tell them to surrender eighty-four County magistrate."

That is to say, Ruyin County has a small terrain, otherwise it would be a joke to talk about eighty-four counties overnight, and there would not be enough time to travel.

"oh? This county magistrate is quite interesting. Go and ask Zi Qian to capture him and come back to see me."

"promise."

This is the difference between Zhang Wu and Cao Cao. Although Zhang Wu has a system, he can only spy on people from the Three Kingdoms who are interested in him and whose names he knows. On the contrary, Cao Cao can tell that Zhao Kan is unusual with just a few words from Xiao Xiao.

Whenever Zhang Wu looks back at Zhao Kan, he will find that the little-known and timid county magistrate has a political value of ninety-two.

In the final analysis, a person's talent has nothing to do with his character and courage.

Zhang Wu may judge people by their appearance, but Cao Cao does not.........

It was already noon the next day when Zhang Xun of Runan received the news that all of Ruyin County was missing.

Or because his beloved concubine was eager to read his brother, he asked someone to send some gold and silver to Ruyin County. The servants found that Ruyin County had changed their flags, and they quickly came back to tell Zhang Xun.

This news frightened Zhang Xun so much. The eastern gate of Runan only borders Cao Cao's forces. If other forces wanted to attack Yuzhou, they would not be able to attack from the east.

After coming to this conclusion, Zhang Xun simply gave up on other counties in Runan County, retracted all his troops back to Shangcai, ordered people to thicken the city wall overnight, and sent people back to Shouchun to ask Yuan Shu for help.

Looking at the dense crowd of soldiers on top of the city, Zhang Xun breathed a sigh of relief temporarily.

If we resolutely close the door and not fight, the 50,000 troops in the city should be enough to resist Cao Cao's army for half a month. Once Yuan Shu sends reinforcements and is attacked from both sides, even if Cao Cao arrives in person, he will be defeated.

"How many days has it been since the soldier asked for help?"

"Back to the general, I have been gone for a day and a half, and I should have arrived in Shouchun by now."

"Okay, okay, go ahead and give the order. As long as the army resists Cao Jun for seven days, each person will be rewarded with fifty gold coins."

"promise!"The messenger went down happily to pass on the news.

Fifty grand is not a small amount of money. It is enough for an ordinary family to meet the normal expenses for three months. Besides, there are fifty thousand soldiers in the city.

Zhang Xun will not care about this little money. Yuan Shu has more. It's money. He cares about staying alive to defend the city. At that time, not only will he not lose a penny of the money he has lost, but Yuan Shu will give him a more generous reward anyway. However, Zhang Xun followed

Zhang Wu in doing so. As he wanted, his front army moved forward quickly and broke away from the infantry. At the same time, he only carried rations for three days. Zhang Xun withdrew the soldiers and horses from each county, and he could just supply supplies on the spot. He simply divided the army into two groups

, with Cao Ang as the commander-in-chief. , Hua Xiong was the vanguard, and he took Geyang directly with three thousand cavalry.

Geyang was only a small county, not as good as Ruyin. Cao Ang happened to be eager to make a contribution, and with Hua Xiong, a veteran in the army, assisting him, it was not easy to capture him..

On the other side, Zhang Wu led five thousand flying bears and went straight to Shangcai and set up camp on a hill ten miles away from Shangcai.

Runan is different from Ruyin and Geyang, but it is one of the few large counties in Yuzhou. It is also the birthplace of the old Yuan family. Although Yuan Shu is unworthy, he also understands that the ancestral land cannot be abandoned lightly.

Not only is this place guarded by heavy troops, but also his most trusted general Zhang Xun is guarding it.

Zhang Wu rode his horse for a walk in front of the city. , and suddenly found that he had underestimated Zhang Xun.

Although this man had no skills, he was really good at making arguments for the city. At this moment, not only did Shangcai's city wall be raised several feet, but even the city gates on all sides were sealed by sand. Death is completely like a turtle shell.

After returning to the camp, Zhang Wu put down his horse and weapons, and walked towards Xun You's tent.

Beside the candlestick, Xun You was holding a bamboo slip, but he didn't show any signs of anxiety.

"Gongda, go to Cai City, please teach me how to break the city."

"Ziqian only led 5,000 cavalry and had no siege equipment. How could he defeat this strong city?"

"If we don't break Shangcai, we can't talk about occupying Yuzhou. I have had my breasts patted by my father-in-law, so I can't afford to lose this person."As he said this, Zhang Wu snatched the bamboo slips from Xun You's hand and threw it on the table:"Stop looking at it now. Think of a way to defeat Shang Cai. Mr. Zhang will be grateful."

Zhang Wu is not used to being lazy, and Xun You is not angry:"Since Zhang Xun dared to seal the city gate, he naturally believed that someone would come to save him. Zi Qian said that the messenger he asked for help arrived in Shouchun?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense? If he didn't go to Shouchun to find Yuan Shu, could he still send someone to Xuchang to find the prime minister?

Xun You smiled:"If Zi Qian were Zhang Xun in the city, how would he feel when he saw that the reinforcements he relied on for survival were defeated?""

"Gongda means...Surrounding the spot for support?"

"Zi Qian's subordinate Fei Xiong was not good at attacking the city. Could it be that he was not good at fighting in the field? Zhang

Wu laughed loudly:"Okay, just wait for Yuan Shu's reinforcements to arrive, and I will let Zhang Xun in the city see what the power of the flying bear is. So Zhang Xun is really a idiot. He waited for reinforcements but sealed the city gate. I will see how he will come out of the city to attack me."

After making up his mind, Zhang Wu was not in a hurry. When Cao Ren's rear army arrived, he did not build siege equipment. He only asked Cao Ren to lead his troops to the city day and night to bluff. Zhang Xun did not know Cao Ren's true strength, so naturally he did not dare to neglect it. The first soldier didn't go to the city at night, couldn't take off his armor when sleeping, and was very nervous........

Shouchun.

Yuan Shu got news of the crisis in Runan and recruited a group of civil and military officials

"Let's all discuss it. Who can solve the crisis in Runan?"

Both the ministers and generals in the meeting hall were secretly scolding Zhang Xun for being a fool. They sent letters asking for help without even seeing the leading generals clearly. Such a coward and fearful of death could actually become a general. But no one brought this kind of thing to the table. Let's talk about it.

Zhang Xun has always been friendly with Yuan Shu. It would be fine if he died in Shangcai. If he returns to Shouchun alive, they will really be unable to bear the burden of gossiping in front of Yuan Shu.

"Lord, give me 50,000 troops and horses, and I will go and resolve the crisis in Shangcai."

A big man stood out with his fists clasped. He was nine feet long and had an upright steel beard. Everyone took a closer look and saw that it was General Ji Ling.

"No need for 50,000, the lord only needs to give me 30,000 horses, and I, Sun Bofu, will put an end to the rebellion in Yuzhou."
