Chapter 555: Besieging Zhang He
When they were in Pingyuan County before, Yuan Tan, Xu You, Yan Liang and other leaders almost broke through Pingyuan City, and they also reinforced Yun Tianbiao in time with Xu Huang and Guan Sheng, which saved Pingyuan City. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info and later Xu Guanzhong also rushed to Pingyuan City, responsible for commanding the three armies to fight against Yuan's army.
The two armies used each other's tactics, and as a result of the battle, they had a slight advantage over the Qingzhou army, and the Jizhou army lost some of its soldiers and horses. After several battles, Xu Guanzhong was unable to expel the Jizhou army, but the Jizhou army was also difficult to break through Pingyuan City, so he led the army to continue southward at lunch.
Therefore, Xu You had no choice but to make a dangerous move, and sent Zhang He to lead 5,000 elite soldiers to quietly attack Linzi. However, Linzi Chen Gaochi was deep, and Zhang Ning, Hu Sanniang and others commanded the Yellow Turban Lux Battalion, which made Zhang He sink into the sand.
Zhang He couldn't capture Linzi, but was chased and killed by Hu Sanniang, and as a result, he led the remaining soldiers and horses to flee everywhere and plunder the township. There was a feeling of fighting guerrillas, and in the process of Hu Sanniang leading the troops to chase and kill, he still had the advantage at first, and ran around with Zhang He's remnants.
However, Zhang He is Zhang He after all, after the defeat at the beginning, the remaining soldiers and horses around him are all elite, and with his command level, he began to set up ambushes, counterattacks and other means so that Hu Sanniang did not dare to pursue at will.
In this way, in addition to Linzi, this Qi County let Zhang He gallop, and it is best to occupy Changxian County and Zhang Ning in Linzi to confront, and both sides have the posture that neither side can help the other.
Now Zhang He, on the one hand, expects Yuan Tan to be more able to capture Pingyuan County and go south to fight with him, and then seize the entire Qingzhou, and on the other hand, he is to forcibly recruit all the strong people in Chang County into the army, but this is Qingzhou after all, and he can only slowly train troops and prepare grain and grass, expand his strength, and wait for the opportunity.
Luo Gan listened to Ma Ling and Bai Sheng's reports, figured out the ins and outs of the matter, and immediately summoned the generals to come.
Luo Gan didn't talk nonsense, he directly ordered the generals to divide the troops and attack Zhang He, because according to the situation, Zhang Ning was just short of troops, and now Luo Gan led the generals to join, so it was not a piece of cake to deal with Zhang He.
"Zhang He took advantage of the gap to enter, when I waited for the army to fight outside, did it wreak havoc in my Qi County, it really made me lose face, and now that I am back, I will definitely capture Zhang He alive. Ma Ling listened to the order, you immediately went to inform Zhang Ning, and asked her to bring the Lux Battalion to encircle and suppress Zhang He with me, and at the same time, you also stayed under Zhang Ning's command. Well, Ruda, you will go with you. Forget it, Wu Yanguang, you hold my token, lead 500 troops, and go to take over the defense of Linzi. Luo Gan ordered.
"No!"
"A certain general will live up to the Lord's entrustment."
"The Sprinkle family knows."
Wu Yanguang, Luda and Ma Ling received the military order and immediately went to pass the order.
"Bai Sheng, you took my token and sneaked into the city of Chang County, waiting for an opportunity to contact the people in the city to create chaos and create opportunities for our army." Luo Gan can't let his subordinates have nothing to do, anyway, Bai Sheng, the day rat, often does this kind of thing in the Water Margin.
This is also the reason why Bai Sheng can be present.
"Don't worry, my lord, the little one knows how to do it." Bai Sheng was happy and the result token was gone.
"Guan Ling and Shi Wengong, when the Lux battalion comes, you two will start attacking Xuchang County!" Luo Gan immediately sent the two people with the highest force around him to attack the city.
"No!"
Guan Ling and Shi Wengong clenched their fists to lead the life.
"Li Ru guards this city, this time I can't let Zhang He slip away, Wen Ji, Du Qian, Song Wan, stay, and the rest of the people will go to Changxian with me and disperse!" Luo Gan said in a deep voice.
"Obey the Lord's command!" Li Ru lightly twisted his beard and said.
Acting separately, the army soon came to the city of Suchang, and Ma Ling quickly took Luda all the way and also informed Zhang Ning.
The people in Linzi City knew that Luo Gan had returned victoriously, and personally led the troops to deal with Zhang He, very happy, like Cai Yong and others finally felt at ease, although Zhang He could not capture Linzi, but it was also a threat.
Wu Yanguang was in charge of the defense of Linzi City, and Zhang Ning led Gu Sister-in-law, Pang Qiuxia, Hu Sanniang, Zhu Biao, and Hu Cheng to come to help with four thousand Yellow Turban wrestlers.
The two armies converged with more than 8,000 people, and Zhang Ning and others hurriedly came over to meet Luo Gan and introduce Hu Sanniang and others.
Luo Gan naturally knew it a long time ago, but he still casually encouraged him to fight hard in the future and make more achievements, but his eyes were mostly focused on Hu Sanniang.
For the first female general in Liangshan, and one of the most beautiful female generals in the Water Margin, that is, Princess Tianshou and the lord of Qiongying are comparable, which naturally makes Luo Gan very curious.
Hu Sanniang looks like a natural Peugeot, and the slender jade hands don't know how to be able to hold the double knives, the jade neck and beautiful little face exposed on the body are very snow-white, the eyes are slippery, and thousands of enchanting can be picked. The tight-fitting armor he wore was difficult to hide his graceful figure.
Luo Gan had a slightly aggressive gaze, which made Hu Sanniang's cheeks slightly red, and she looked even more charming, but she didn't bow her head shyly.
"Ahem~ Lord, is it time for us to attack the city?" Zhang Ning was a little displeased, more helpless, it seemed that his husband had taken a fancy to this Hu Sanniang, so he had to remind.
"Well, okay, Zhang Ning, you will hand over your soldiers and horses to Guan Ling and Shi Wengong." Luo Gan didn't lose his foot, he was just curious about Hu Sanniang's appearance, and said this to Zhang Ning seriously, then turned around and ordered Shi Wengong and Guan Ling: "You two can lead the troops and horses to attack the city!" ”
"Yes~" Zhang Ning dragged his tone and expressed his dissatisfaction slightly.
"No!" Guan Ling and Shi Wengong were crisp and neat when they arrived.
……
Immediately, Guan Ling led 4,000 troops, and Shi Wengong led 3,000 troops to kill Benchangguo, which is a county, the city is not high, and there is no moat, which belongs to an ordinary small county town.
"Zhang He upstairs listened, I am Guan Ling, a general under the command of Qingzhou Mu, and now that my lord has led the army back, I know him and quickly surrender, maybe my lord is magnanimous and does not care about your sin of attacking Linzi, and may even reuse you. If you don't want to die, open the gates. Guan Ling shouted.
"That is, you occupy a small city, and you don't have many soldiers and horses in your hands. What are you going to do against my lord's army! And you are alone, and you have been abandoned by your lord, so surrender. Brother Jizhou, my lord has spoken, as long as you are willing to surrender and avoid death, I can still let you go home. The Qingzhou brothers in the city, the lord has returned, quickly take down the enemy army and open the door! Shi Wengong also shouted, hoping that Zhang He would see that the army could obediently open the city and surrender.
Zhang He also saw the military horses under the city, his face was gloomy, although he expected the situation to be bad, but he didn't expect to come so soon: "Hmph, there is no need to say more, my subordinates will see the real chapter, I, Zhang He, am a general in Hebei, how can I surrender without a fight!" ”
"Hmph, stubborn, siege!" Guan Ling said disdainfully, waved his sword and ordered the siege of the city.
"Brothers, kill me!" Sven Gong took the lead.
