Jiangxia, Yundu City faced Cao Cao's Yanzhou army and Sun Liu's coalition army outside the city's Liantian camp, as the defenders of Yundu City, Gao Pei and Deng Xian were also slightly moved. How to say that the two of them have seen a lot with Ma Chao's Liangzhou army, so even if the Yanzhou army plus the Sun Liu coalition army can be said to be about 200,000 horses, but the two of them are not so surprised that they can't say that they can't say it.

But I was really worried in my heart, and if I wanted to say that I was not afraid at all, it was all false.

When Ma Chaobing entered Jiangxia, the two listened to Guo Jia's advice and transferred troops from Yizhou, and then they were specially summoned by their own lords. Of course, after hearing his lord's order, it can be said that Gao Pei and Deng Xian are indeed very happy in their hearts. In Jizhou before, his father-in-law had not forgotten the two of them, but now, the two of them have something to do.

To say that Gao Pei and Deng Xian's hearts are actually very clear. To say that the two of them have been in the Liangzhou Army for many years, and they can be regarded as loyal to their lordship, but they have never been able to get much reuse, and the two of them have not thought about this problem-

At the beginning, the two of them were both generals from the Yizhou Army, and it seemed that the two of them had the worst mix, didn't they think about it.

Whether it is Yan Yan, Huang Quan and Lei Tong, or Wu Yi, Wu Ban's uncle and nephew, Li Hui and Meng De and others, none of these people have to mix well with the two of them, they are all reused by their own lords. It's just the two of you. It can be said that it is still worse than them, so the two of them understand it in their hearts.

And this is the final reason, both of them are clear. To put it bluntly, that's actually because of the ability to do it. The two of them are very self-aware, not to mention Huang Quan, Huang Gongheng, and Li Hui and Li Deang, these two people who can be strategists, they are talents who can be both civil and military.

So there is no need to say much about this, but it is with Yan Yan, Lei Tong, Wu Yi's uncle and nephew, and Meng De. It's the same, it's not comparable. So the two of them thought about it carefully, and they understood the reason why their lord didn't reuse the two of them.

so that when he received an order from his lord. The two of them were so excited that they couldn't do it.

Indeed, the two of them are self-aware and know the reason why their lord does not reuse the two of them, so they really have no hope. My lord must reuse them.

But when they received Ma Chao's order. I understand in my heart, even if the two of them are just third-rate generals, yes, but my lord still hasn't forgotten the two of them, and I still remember what the names of the two of them are, or I can't name them and come to the order directly.

So the so-called "death for the confidant", the two did have such an impulse at that time. However, both of them are not young, and more of them have turned this into motivation. In their thoughts. Since his lord let the two of them guard Yundu City in Jiangxia, then of course the two of them had to do their best. Are you still worthy of your lordship?

So in this way, the two came to Yundu and became Yundu's guards. So far, there are two guards in Yundu City, that is, Gao Pei and Deng Xian from Yizhou.

At this time, Gao Pei and Deng Xian were standing at the head of the city, looking at the Yanzhou Army and the Sun-Liu Coalition Army who had already set up a camp, and there was a trace of solemnity in their eyes. Worry is inevitable, that's for sure, but both have their own ideas, and that's right.

At this time, I heard Gao Pei say to Deng Xian: "The lord ordered you and me to come here, Yun Du has always been very peaceful, but now he is facing such a big enemy, it seems that the lord has counted all of them!" ”

Speaking of this, Gao Pei smiled bitterly twice in his heart, but on the surface, he didn't show it at all.

When Deng Xian heard this, he smiled, and then said to Gao Pei: "Yes, now that it looks like this, it is so!" ”

"And what about the battle in Yundu?"

When Deng Xian heard this, he said: "Don't forget the handwritten letter of the previous lord!" ”

When Gao Pei heard this, his eyes lit up, and then he nodded to Deng Xian, "I know how to do it!" ”――

The handwritten letter from Ma Chao mentioned by the two is just a handwritten letter from him sent by Ma Chao some time ago, which was specially addressed to Gao Pei and Deng Xian. And he made it clear in his heart that if Cao Cao's Yanzhou army and Sun Liu's combined army came to attack together, then it would be better to hold it for a few days if it could be held for a few days, and then find an opportunity to retreat safely. As for being reckless or something, then it is not advocated, safety is the most important, this is what Ma Chao means.

To be honest, a Yundu City did not let Ma Chao attach too much importance to it. And he wanted to see more about how many catties Cao Cao could have after they united. After all, he is the strongest rival, so it is impossible for him not to pay attention to it, and it is impossible not to value it.

And Deng Xian reminded Gao Pei not to forget his father-in-law's handwritten letter, didn't it relieve him of pressure. Of course, he also knew in his heart that with the thousands of people in his city, he would definitely not be the opponent of nearly 200,000 people, so the meaning of his lord's letter was not wrong at all. So of course they will do it, and naturally they will not disobey the order, how can they say that they can not lose their lives, then they must not lose their lives.

Outside Yundu City, Cao Cao's Yanzhou army was stationed in one place. The Sun-Liu coalition army was stationed in another place. Although it is not distinct, it is not stationed together, but it is still divided into two parts.

This has to say that their union. After all, the union of Cao Cao and Sun Ce and Liu Bei is not the same as the union of Sun Ce and Liu Bei, so this is the case.

At this time, Cao Cao's big tent of the Chinese army, he, Sun Ce and Liu Bei had not yet gotten together, but he first summoned his generals and advisers to discuss the matter of Yundu City, so he summoned everyone under him. Came to his big tent of the Chinese army.

At this time, I heard Cao Cao say, "Zhongde, tell me about the information of Yundu City!" ”

"No!"

To talk about the intelligence system of the Yanzhou Army. That is very powerful, even if Gao Pei and Deng Xian are just third-rate generals of the Liangzhou Army, but there is still some information about them in the hands of the Yanzhou Army. Of course, as a third-rate general. You can't count on the Yanzhou army against them and those first-class generals. It is impossible for the counsellors to pay as much attention as to those who deliberately pay attention.

However, it must be admitted that in terms of intelligence, the intelligence of the Yanzhou Army must be more detailed than that of Sun Ce and Liu Bei, even if they don't pay so much attention to third-rate generals like Gao Pei and Deng Xian. But after all, they really want to surpass Sun Ce and Liu Bei in terms of intelligence, this is right.

And Cheng Yu agreed. began to introduce the situation of Yundu to everyone in the tent, especially Yundu's guards. The situation of Gao Pei and Deng Xian, after all, even if the two of them are only third-rate generals, they are the main generals of a city, so of course they can introduce them in detail, so they naturally have to introduce them to everyone in detail. After everyone listened, they had a certain understanding of Yundu, Gao Pei and Deng Xian, although it could not be regarded as "knowing oneself and knowing oneself", but it was indeed a lot of things that they didn't know before.

After Cheng Yu finished speaking, Cao Cao said to everyone: "Zhongde has finished the introduction, I don't know what you think of Yun Du?" ”

When everyone heard the words of their lord, they all kept pondering what to do. Although it is true that it is now an alliance between oneself and the Sun-Liu coalition army, it is impossible for oneself not to contribute to the war against Jiangxia.

How to say it, although everyone doesn't know how their lord and Sun Ce and Liu Bei negotiated specifically, that is, the issue of the ownership of Jiangxia's interests, it doesn't mean that they won't think about it, their lord is so active at this time, let himself and others think of ways and come up with ideas, so does it mean that if they have a way to take Yundu, then this city will belong to them?

It's no wonder that everyone thinks like this, after all, they also know what kind of person their lord is. If it is Sun Ce and Liu Bei, they are both masters of "don't scatter eagles if you don't see rabbits". Then your father-in-law is even more of a "no profit and can't afford to be early" person, so if it is not beneficial to yourself, your father-in-law will never take the initiative to do it, unless it is someone else's plan, it is still possible, or it is really impossible.

So it's no wonder that everyone thinks so, the key is that in today's situation, everyone has to think like this. But what is the truth, in fact, what everyone thinks can be regarded as 8/9 is not far from ten. At least one thing, that is, if it is true that the Yanzhou army's strategy and idea succeeded and took Yundu, then at least Cao Cao thinks that he can take this county seat from the hands of Sun Ce and Liu Bei.

At this time, as soon as he heard what his lord said, he said with a full favor: "Lord, I think that the two generals Gao Pei and Deng Xian of Yundu City are just generals when the Liangzhou army fought Yizhou, so my subordinates think that they can directly persuade the second general to surrender to our army!" In this case, wouldn't it be that the soldiers would take down Yundu without blood! ”

When many people heard this, they all nodded, and if they want to say something full of favors, indeed, it is not unreasonable. However, after Xun Yu listened to Manzhong's words at this time, he shook his head slightly. At this time, he said in his heart that if Gao Pei and Deng Xian were really so easy to be convinced. Then Ma Chao will definitely not let them come to defend Yundu City.

Ma Mengqi would not do such a dangerous thing, at least if he did not have a certain certainty. How could it be that Gao and Deng should be allowed to defend the city?

In this regard, at least Xun You doesn't think that's the case, but he thinks that although the two of them are not how to be loyal to Ma Chao and the Liangzhou Army, it is almost impossible to convince them lightly, this will not work at all.

Seeing Xun You shaking his head. Cao Cao raised his eyebrows, and then asked, "I don't know what Gongda has built, but it doesn't hurt to say it!" ”

Xun Yu heard that his lord asked so. Of course, he wouldn't hide anything, so he hurriedly said: "Lord, what Berning said before can indeed be said to be reasonable. But we can't make it too simple! ”

Hearing this, Cao Cao asked, "I don't know what Gongda means?" ”

"My lord. Ladies and gentlemen, if you think that Ma Mengqi is famous all over the world for knowing people, it can be seen that he does have his own set. And now he is letting Gao Pei and Deng Xian be stationed in Yundu, which shows that it is definitely not without a purpose. Even if our army wants to convince the two, don't have too much hope, if not, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment! ”

When everyone heard what Xun You said, they couldn't help but nod. Think about it. That's exactly what happened. What Man Pet said before makes sense. But now what Xun You said makes sense, or should it be said that it is more reasonable-

After listening to Xun You's words, Cao Cao nodded slightly, and said in his heart Isn't that the case, and now this is the case.

Ma Chao can let two people who are not loyal to him and the Liangzhou army to defend the city? At least he didn't believe it, so since he could let Gao Pei and Deng Xian guard Yundu City, then he must have the confidence, at least they wouldn't take refuge in themselves.

So as soon as he thought of this, Cao Cao said to Xun You: "Gongda's words are reasonable, I don't know what you think?" ”

Le Jin said: "Lord, Mr. Gongda's words are good, and his subordinates also think the same!" ”

After Le Jin finished speaking, several people came out who agreed with Xun You's words, and in the end, everyone agreed. Isn't that what is going on, it is indeed not unreasonable to be full of favor, but if you are not happy, it is more reasonable.

"I wonder if you have any other good ways to deal with Yundu City?"

Everyone shook their heads in their hearts, and there was really no good way to do it for a while. Anyway, there are so many people on your side, so it's good to go directly to the siege, how about it?

In the end, Cao Cao talked to everyone for a while, and the result was that nothing particularly useful was discussed. After all, this is indeed a clever plan, and it is true that it is not always available. And those who can fight against the Liangzhou army can be said to be even less, so everyone doesn't have any particularly good ideas. And now their meaning is actually quite simple, that is, "take a step, look at a step", anyway, it is not only their own side that comes here, then Sun Ce and Liu Bei are also the same as themselves.

Not to mention, this is indeed the case, to say that at this time, almost at the same time that Cao Cao summoned his subordinates, Sun Ce and Liu Bei, the two of them were the same, and summoned their own subordinates. They had the same idea as Cao Cao, they were all for the sake of Yundu City.

And the final result is no different from Cao Cao, the discussion comes and goes, and it is not the same as Cao Cao's thoughts, they all have no ideas, they can only take their time. Now there is only one way to attack, which is necessary at this time, and the assault will naturally start tomorrow.

Cao Cao's Yanzhou army and Sun Ce and Liu Bei's Sun-Liu coalition army rested outside Yundu City for a day. After all, it is considered to have come from afar, so it must be in accordance with the "rules of the rivers and lakes", after a day of rest, and then attack in a big way.

Cao Cao, Sun Ce and Liu Bei met again, but this time the three of them didn't say much. It's just a matter of deciding who will attack the city first and who will go first. Of course, they will not attack the city together, after all, Sun Ce and Liu Bei will join forces to attack the city, and that is because they formed a coalition army. But Cao Cao didn't do that, didn't he?

But because of this, the first to attack the city, such a top priority, naturally belonged to Cao Cao's Yanzhou army. Although it is said that he wants to suffer a little loss, Cao Cao is not good at refuting Sun Ce and Liu Bei now. After all, they are all going to attack the city, and there is a difference between who comes first and who comes last. But it's not that special, it's that big.

And Cao Cao is not such a calculating person, at least on this point, he is definitely not. So Cao Cao agreed. Let yourself be the first to go out, and then the Sun-Liu coalition army, it's nothing-

Cao Cao pointed his sword at Yundu, and then ordered the siege of the city to his soldiers.

This time, the generals of the Yanzhou army who led troops to attack the city were still forbidden. After all, he was happy to get into the injury of his arm. Even if he thought it was okay, Cao Cao still had some concerns. After all, the so-called 100 days of breaking his muscles and bones, so he was still very worried about Lejin, so he naturally didn't let Lejin go, but still let Yu Ban go.

After the previous run-in in Wuling, Cao Cao believes that Yu Ban's experience can be said to have increased a lot. At least before Yu Ban in Wuling's last cousin, it can be said that he, who is the lord, is still satisfied. So because Lejin can't lead the troops. Then this opportunity is naturally forbidden by him, but others cannot replace him. Unless it's Lejin's arm. Then naturally he personally led the troops, otherwise at this time, only Yu Ban could do it, anyway, Cao Cao was still quite optimistic about him.

After seeing his lord's order, he immediately rushed to Yundu City with his own soldiers. In his opinion, it shouldn't have been his own side to attack first, but whoever let his lord have no opinion on this, then what else can he say as a subordinate?

In Yu Ban's opinion, since his lord is like this, then he must have his own ideas. And the lord didn't say anything, so the subordinates don't need to ask more, anyway, if your lord really doesn't want to say it, then it's useless for you to ask. If it is what he wants to say, then you don't ask, and the lord will definitely say it.

So at this time, Yu Ban didn't think much about it, but went to attack the city with his own soldiers. In his opinion, the Liangzhou army is powerful, but now that he has joined the Sun and Liu coalition army, nearly 200,000 people, can it be said that he can't take down a Yundu City. If that's the case, then both his side and the Sun-Liu coalition army should go home and go home to farm.

And seeing that the Yanzhou army was already attacking with Cao Cao's order at this time, Gao Pei and Deng Xian's faces were extremely strict, and they didn't dare to slack off at all. For them, this is a big test, and it can be said that their lord is a test for the two of them. Although his lord wrote clearly in his heart that he could directly abandon the city, whether it was Gao Pei or Deng Xian, both of them hoped to take their soldiers to hold on for a few more days, so that they could face their lord.

But to be honest, in the face of so many people in the city, the two of them have no bottom in their hearts. At least at this moment, there is not much bottom, after all, they are not arrogant and arrogant, and they can resist the Yanzhou army and the Sun-Liu coalition army with nearly 200,000 troops with their own thousands of soldiers.

But even so, if you let them give up Yundu City lightly, it is obviously impossible. So in the end, it can only be said that the subordinates will see the real chapter, both of them think so. When it was really no longer possible, of course, they would not defend the city, but listened to the words of their lord's letter, directly abandoned the city, and quickly retreated to the east.

But now, it is obvious that they will not retreat lightly, at least they will flee before they fight, this is not the style of the Liangzhou army. And the two of them also knew in their hearts that if they really did that, it was estimated that they would not have the face to see their lord, their colleagues, and even more so their soldiers.

But isn't it, at least the two of them know it in their hearts. A few of the Liangzhou soldiers who can follow the two of them to defend the city are really afraid of death, so ...... -

Yu Ban had already led troops to attack. And Gao Pei and Deng Xian were already leading the Liangzhou soldiers at the head of the city to launch a defense.

At the beginning of the Yanzhou army, it was a small loss, after all, the archers at the head of the city were not vegetarians. After the rain of arrows, the Yanzhou sergeant began to climb the cloud ladder to attack the city under the leadership of Yu Ban, but under the strict defense of Gao Pei and Deng Xian, the Yanzhou sergeant did not take much advantage. On the contrary, the Liangzhou army has the advantage at this time, which is true.

Cao Cao, who was watching the battle from behind, said to Xun Yu next to him: "Gongda." It seems that although the Liangzhou army has a limited number of men and horses, it is still very stubborn. ”

Xun You smiled, "Lord." Now there is not only our army, but also the Sun and Liu coalition army, there is no need to worry about Yundu's affairs, if you really have to worry about more. It's still Sun Bofu and Liu Xuande! ”

Cao Cao smiled when he heard this. said to Xun You: "Gongda's words are good, but it is so! ”――

To say that Yu Ban thought it was indeed very good, but things were not as simple as he thought. At least he was repelled twice by the soldiers of the Liangzhou army, so he could be regarded as having seen the strength of the Liangzhou soldiers.

He also had to admit that when he was in Wuling, it was mainly planted on Huo Jun and Huo Zhongmiao. So now Gao Pei and Deng Xian, even if they are tied together, they are not Huo Jun's opponents. But I have to admit something. That is, the combat power of the Liangzhou Army is to surpass that of Liu Bei's soldiers. At least I've experienced these battles. It's really a deep experience, and it's very touching.

So if it is compared with the last Wuling battle, Yu Ban doesn't know whether to say that he is lucky or unlucky. But no matter what, his only purpose is only one, that is, to break Yun Du, and make Yun Du a territory that can truly belong to his own forces.

Although this idea will not be realized today, it should not be far off, and I can't wait.

Cao Cao frowned at this time, and Xun You said at this time, "Lord, collect the troops!" ”

Cao Cao nodded slightly at this time, "It's okay!" Mingjin, collect the troops! ”

"No!"

Then there was a crisp sound of gold on the side of the Yanzhou army, and Yu Ban heard his own gold, so he retreated with his soldiers.

As for Gao Pei and Deng Xian, they heard the Yanzhou army Mingjin, and then saw that Yu Ban was retreating with his own soldiers, so it can be said that they were really relieved. After all, this is not something that anyone can encounter, and it can indeed be said that it is not very good to watch today. Anyway, he was not satisfied, as for the rest, Yu Ban didn't think too much about it at this time, he was just bent on breaking Yundu City.

Gao Pei said to Deng Xian at this time: "The Yanzhou army has finally withdrawn!" ”

Deng Xian said: "Yes, but there is also the Sun Liu Alliance!" ”――

At this time, Gao Pei and Deng Xian looked at each other, both saw the concerns in each other's eyes, and they both smiled bitterly in their hearts.

Just when you think the table is not bad, you have to meet a different storm. For the two of them, it's like just beating off a wolf, and then a tiger comes here, so it's really unlucky.

The Sun-Liu coalition army may not be as strong as the Yanzhou army, but it can't stand the number of them, so can the two of them not worry.

After Yu Ban came back, Cao Cao gave two words of encouragement, and then led his troops to retreat. Of course, he retreated not directly to his own camp, but to move the place for Sun Ce and Liu Bei's Sun-Liu coalition army, and that's it. After all, I have already contributed here, so I can be regarded as completing today's task. Isn't there still a Sun-Liu coalition army, they haven't been on it yet.

In Cao Cao's opinion, his Yanzhou army has already made a move, and it is time for your Sun and Liu coalition troops to go out. So he hurriedly led the troops to get out of the way. Let Sun Ce and Liu Bei's people immediately go forward and attack Yundu-

As for Cao Cao's thoughts, it can be said that Sun Ce and Liu Bei know it. What does Cao Cao mean, can they still not understand.

But whether it was Sun Ce or Liu Bei, they all just laughed, but they didn't say anything to Cao Cao. In their opinion, this is all something that must be experienced. After all, the Yanzhou army took the lead, and then retreated. Naturally, I want to do it again, that's for sure. Anyway, it's going to be sooner or later, it's just when.

In Cao Cao led his troops to retreat. And when Sun Ce and Liu Bei led their troops forward, it didn't take long for the three of them to meet.

Cao Cao glanced at Sun Ce first, and then at Liu Bei. And Sun Ce and Liu Bei also looked at Cao Cao.

Sun Ce said to Cao Cao: "Cao Sikong works hard. Hurry up and take the Yanzhou army to rest! ”

And Liu Bei also arched his hand and said: "Cao Sikong has worked hard, but he should let the Yanzhou army rest more!" ”――

And Cao Cao looked at the faces of these two people, he hated it so much in his heart, he really wanted to give each of them a big mouth, but unfortunately it didn't, he thought to himself at this time.

But even so, on the surface, he still looked calm, and at this time, he heard him say: "Thank you for your understanding." Our army is tired from the battle, and it is better to take a good rest. Thank you very much. Thank you both for your understanding! ”

Cao Cao's words are really nine points false, one point true, but for this, Sun Ce and Liu Bei don't care. Anyway, they knew that Cao Cao's Yanzhou army was the first to attack, and the result was that they returned with a feather, so that was enough. And the two of them are not like their Yanzhou army, at least their own Sun and Liu coalition army, which is much more numerous than them, isn't it. And this is the advantage, so ......

At this time, Sun Ce and Liu Bei smiled at Cao Cao, and then hurriedly said a few more polite words, anyway, they were all words that were not nutritious. Without saying a few words, the three of them separated again, Cao Cao led his troops back, while Sun Ce and Liu Bei led the army forward, at least for the time being, to the opposite place.

Gao Pei and Deng Xian at the head of Yundu City looked at it, and sure enough, the Sun-Liu coalition army came so soon, this man and horse, it was definitely much more than the Yanzhou army, and it seemed that it was nearly four times more than them.

The two of them have stricter expressions than the other, and they have to be like this. The previous Yanzhou army, they all took it seriously, so let alone replaced it with the Sun-Liu coalition army, which had more men and horses. In the eyes of Gao Pei and Deng Xian, let alone hundreds of thousands of people, even if it is hundreds of thousands of cabbage, it is estimated that they can stone their own people to death, so if they don't accept it, they are stronger than the defending force in their own city now, isn't it?

With the orders of Sun Ce and Liu Bei, the soldiers of the Jiangdong Army and Liu Beijun rushed to Yundu City like the previous Yanzhou soldiers. The Jiangdong Army is still Dong Xian leading the troops, and Liu Beijun is still Zhou Cang, but this has not changed anything.

The shouting of killing has not stopped since the beginning of the battle, and it is mainly the besieging side, and the fighting spirit is high. used to be the Yanzhou Army, but now, it's the Sun-Liu Combined Army-

Gao Pei shouted at the Liangzhou soldiers at the head of the city at this time: "Brothers, take out your strength, just like just now, the Yanzhou army has retreated, what is the fear of the Sun-Liu coalition army!" ”

And Deng Xian was not to be outdone, he shouted two sentences in the same way, of course, the effect was obvious, as soon as the words of the two fell, the morale of the Liangzhou soldiers at the head of the city had already improved. The Yanzhou army attacked just now and didn't let them take advantage, which is right, so the morale of the Liangzhou soldiers has not declined at least.

Now, after hearing Gao Pei and Deng Xian's shouts, the morale has naturally improved. In their opinion, since the Yanzhou army, which was so strong, had retreated, why couldn't the Sun-Liu coalition army retreat. It's just that there are more people and horses than the Yanzhou army, but what can you do like this, today it is still fruitless for you to attack the city.

Seeing the situation of the soldiers, Gao Pei and Deng Xian were both satisfied, for them, it was enough for the time being, so the attack on the first day of the Sun-Liu coalition army was in vain-

In this way, the two were at the head of the city, and once again launched a defense, but the other party changed from the Yanzhou army to the Sun-Liu coalition army. (To be continued......)
