Lujiang and Jiujiang are still actively preparing for war, but Yuzhang's side has already fought.

Through various ways to spy on intelligence, Huang Zu also knew that there were only 20,000 elite soldiers in Yuzhang, and the leader of the troops was an unknown person like Zhang Liao.

In Huang Zu's opinion, Yuan Shufang estimated that he had given up the place of Yuzhang and focused on garrisoning the four northern counties, so he marched much earlier than the armies of the other roads, and without hesitation, he went straight to Nanchang, where Zhang Liao was located.

In his opinion, isn't a mere Zhang Liao ready to be caught? There are a complete army of 60,000 under his command, not to mention that there is a family in Nanchang City as an internal response.

In just a few days, Huang Zu led the army under his command to march forward, and it was less than 100 miles away from Yuzhang County to govern Nanchang.

Nanchang was too guarded, and Zhang Liao and Fa Zheng were studying how to deal with Huang Zu's attack.

"Xiaozhi, what is your good plan?"

Even in the face of this grim situation, Zhang Liao still did not panic at all, as if the army in front of him was just some mustard, but a trace of excitement rose in his heart. With this kind of innate big heart, I have to say that Zhang Liao was born for big scenes.

Fa Zheng looked at the sand table in front of him, and even with his own resourcefulness and judgment, he couldn't help but feel powerless.

Faced with this huge disparity in the strength of the enemy and us, and we did not have many available soldiers, Fa Zheng felt that he was really a clever woman who could not cook without rice.

Although Fa Zheng has a lot of schemes in mind, most of them are not small.

Although Huang Zu is very arrogant, he is a battle-hardened general after all. There is not much to be written about either the route of the march or the camping site.

Moreover, it was a cold winter at this time, and there were basically no dense forests on Huang Zu's marching route, so it was difficult to implement the most direct means of defeating natural disasters by attacking water and fire. No matter what, unless he abandons this Nanchang City, Zhang Liao will have to face Huang Zu head-on.

Think about Yuan Shu's entrustment before leaving, and let yourself try to protect the people of the entire Yuzhang County as much as possible. Fa Zheng gritted his teeth: "Wen Yuan, do you dare to bet with me?" ”

"How to bet?"

Zhang Liao looked at the young Changshi in front of him, but he didn't dare to underestimate the other party at all. You must know that before coming, Yuan Shu specially instructed himself to listen to Fazheng's advice.

"Raid at night, if you win, you will solve the power of Yuzhang in one fell swoop, and if you lose, you will give Yuzhang to others."

Fa said solemnly.

This was the best he could think of to avoid Yu Zhang being damaged too much. But to be honest, Fa Zheng only has three points in his heart at this time, which is still based on Huang Zu's arrogant personality.

Zhang Liao was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood Fazheng's thoughts, and said without hesitation: "Okay! Hyozhi, please tell me more about your detailed arrangements. ”

Fa Zheng looked at Zhang Liao in surprise, and a trace of emotion surged in his heart: "Okay, since Wenyuan, you trust me so much, then we will gamble with the entire Yuzhang!" ”

"Tomorrow, Huang Zu will arrive in Nanchang, and when the time comes, please ask General Wenyuan to go out of the city to challenge. But remember, you can't win if you lose, and you have to lose really. We ...... again in the evening."

In the afternoon of the next day, under the call of some well-intentioned people, Huang Zu's army finally came.

Riding on a tall horse, Huang Zu looked at the towering city walls of Nanchang City, and his face was slightly ugly.

"Jingzhou Huangzu is here, why don't you surrender soon?"

Hearing Huang Zu's shouting and the neat 60,000 troops behind him, Zhang Liao on the city wall felt a pang in his heart and shouted softly: "Release the arrow!" ”

The archers on the city wall fired thousands of arrows in unison, overwhelmingly shooting at Huang Zu.

Huang Zu raised his head and looked at the arrows in the sky, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes. With a slight wave of his right hand, a large amount of clouds and qi suddenly appeared in front of the army behind him, and suddenly the arrows in the sky seemed to hit an invisible iron wall and fell to the ground.

Seeing tens of thousands of arrows crashing into the clouds, and then falling to the ground weakly, Zhang Liao frowned, and then jumped decisively and lightly, leaping down from the city wall like a big peng, and fell heavily on the ground at the city gate, stepping out of a small pit.

At the same time, a crack opened in the Nanchang city gate, and a majestic white horse ran to Zhang Liao's side.

Zhang Liao jumped lightly, rode on the horse, and pointed forward with a spear in his hand: "Yanmen Zhang Wenyuan is here, who dares to come forward to fight?" ”

Huang Zu looked at Zhang Liao, who was dressed in sea-blue armor and holding a silver-white spear, and looked good, and frowned: "Who is willing to fight?" ”

Suddenly, Huang Zu's lieutenant Huang Zheng rode forward on his horse and said, "General, please fight!" ”

Huang Zu looked at his clansman, who was also the most powerful lieutenant under his command, nodded, and said softly: "Be careful." ”

Huang Zheng didn't care about the reins at all, drove his horse and rushed up, shouting loudly: "Jingzhou Huang Zheng is here, the enemy general is not ready to dismount and surrender!" ”

Zhang Liao's eyes narrowed, the general in front of him should be a quasi-second-rate general, he knew it in his heart, suppressed his internal strength and strength at the peak level of a third-rate general, held a gun in both hands, and seemed to go all out to sweep towards Huang Zheng.

Suddenly, a half-moon-shaped spear with a diameter of two zhang flew towards Huang Zheng's chest.

Huang Zheng was not surprised when he saw this gun, and after shouting, he waved the long knife in his hand with all his strength, and a slightly larger knife rushed out, and after hitting Zhang Liao's gun, the two almost canceled each other, and some of the knives shot out and dissipated in the air.

And Zhang Liao also took the opportunity to rush up at this time, lightly transporting his internal qi, and the spear in his hand stabbed towards Huang Zheng like a bolt of lightning.

Huang Zheng also kept his speed unchanged, raised the long knife behind him, carried enough internal qi, and the strength reached his waist from his legs, and finally concentrated on his arms, and he rounded the long knife with all his strength, and slashed forward.

The blade of the long knife was just above the tip of Zhang Liao's spear.

Zhang Liao suddenly felt a huge force, pretending that he couldn't withstand this huge force, and after the spear in his hand shook slightly, he threw it back with inertia, twisted his waist, dodged Huang Zheng's long knife sideways, and threw a backhand shot at Huang Zheng's face.

Huang Zheng held the handle of the long knife in his hand and blocked it to the right side of his face. The backhand also slashed at Zhang Liao's waist. Zhang Liao held the gun in both hands and blocked it to the left, seemingly blocking the knife with some difficulty.

Then the horses of the two staggered away, spun around and collided again.

In this way, after the two fought like chess opponents for more than ten rounds, Zhang Liao pretended to be physically exhausted and turned his horse back to the city with his right hand trembling.

The morale of the soldiers under Huang Zu's command instantly increased greatly, and they cheered for Huang Zheng in unison, and Huang Zheng also wanted to make another meritorious service, so he took advantage of the situation to catch up.

However, Zhang Liao's horse is one of the best horses that Yuan Shu bought from Youzhou. Huang Zheng couldn't pursue, and watched Zhang Liao enter the city, and the city gate was immediately closed again.

Huang Zheng looked at the closed gate, and swung his sword towards the city gate with all his resentment, the sword slammed into the clouds of the city body, and the city gate was unharmed.

In the end, he could only show off his might in front of the city gate with a little disappointment, and then hit the horse back to the city.

Huang Zu saw Huang Zheng's victory in the first battle, and shouted arrogantly: "Release the arrow!" ”

Ten thousand arrows were fired at the defenders on the city wall, but they were all blocked by the clouds, and they could only fall to the ground unwillingly. After a few rounds of arrows, the soldiers on the towering walls were still unscathed.

Huang Zu looked at the tall city wall in front of him with resentment, and then looked at his soldiers who were a little tired because of the rapid march for many days, and waved the horsewhip in his hand angrily, and unwillingly chose Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

Huang Zu, who turned the horse's head, didn't notice that in the corner above the city wall, a young scholar was looking at him with a sly smile.
