Chapter 64: The Battle of Wancheng (1)
When Qiu Ming once again prevaricated with the excuse that he had already given it away, Liu Bei smiled and said: "That Dian Wei is still far away in Quyang, so now I will lend the horse to my second brother first, and then return it to him when Dian Wei comes to ask for it in the future, wouldn't it be good?" ”
Qiu Ming was so angry with him that he smoked: "Who said I gave it to Dian Wei?" ”
Liu Bei pretended to be surprised: "Not Dian Wei? So what other hero is more worthy of such a good horse than Yun Chang? ”
Qiu Ming looked at Wei Yan, Wei Yan hurriedly shrank his head, and said in his heart I am not the opponent of the three sunspots, even if I gave it, it is very likely that I will be robbed by him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Qiuming's heart suddenly moved, and he grabbed an old soldier beside Wei Yan and said, "I have already given him this horse." ”
Liu Guanzhang was shocked at the same time, only to see that this old soldier was about forty or fifty years old, and he was described as withered and full of alcohol, as if he was going to get drunk to death on the ground in the next second, although he shot an arrow from Zhang Fei's helmet yesterday, but he thought that he was only an archer at most, where was he a hero?
Zhang Fei was furious and was about to step forward, but was stopped by Guan Yu. Guan Yu said proudly: "The eldest husband will never compete with the old pawn for horses", and turned around and rode away without looking at Qiu Ming.
When Liu Guanzhang had gone far, Huang Zhong handed the reins back to Qiu Ming: "General Qiu's horse is very good, please take it back." ”
Qiu Ming laughed: "This horse has been sent to Hansheng, why do you want to bring it back?" ”
Wei Yan and Huang Zhong were both shocked: "Isn't it an expedient measure to plug the mouth of that big ear?" How did it come true again? ”
Qiu Ming said with a smile: "I heard Wen Chang say that Hansheng is a master of both swords and arrows, and his martial arts are a hundred times better than him. This horse follows me to Mingzhu secretly, maybe one day he will cause trouble with his guilt, so it is better to give it to Hansheng, and it can be regarded as making the best use of each other. ”
Huang Zhong was originally a person who practiced martial arts, and he also loved this snow-stepping black horse very much, and said with a little reluctance: "I can't dance now, I can't open a sword, I can't ride a bow, I can't ride a horse, this black horse is also a waste for me, General Qiu should take it back." ”
Qiu Ming took a closer look at Huang Zhong, and saw that he had only been working for a day or two, and his expression was a lot more aggrieved, and his hair was getting grayer and grayer, and he looked even more droopy and old. Tyumen had seen the news about the elderly who had lost their independence, and knew that this kind of emotion was difficult to soothe with words, and could only be digested slowly over time.
Qiu Ming asked softly: "Han Sheng, if the horse is in your hands, do you have the confidence not to give Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to snatch it?" ”
Huang Zhong raised his head and said, "They want to grab the horse? Unless Huang's head is broken and his neck is broken. ”
Tyumen was overjoyed and said: "In this case, what are you afraid of?" Just take it, even if they accidentally take it away, it doesn't matter, I'm sure I can find you a better one. ”
In less than a day, the official army moved to the camp and finished moving, Zhu Jun divided the whole battalion into five teams, surrounded the southwest gate day and night, and at the same time made people beat drums and shout at the southwest city wall, making a trend of attacking the city. The yellow scarf was disturbed and couldn't sleep all night, every time he was on guard, no one went to the city, he wanted to sleep well, but he was afraid of being invaded, and it was really difficult to sleep and eat. Han Zhong had no choice but to often send troops from the northeast to take over the defense, making a fuss and a miasma.
Occasionally, there were Yellow Turban warriors who rushed out of the city to raid them, but Guan Yu and Zhang Fei crushed all the futile resistance like two heavy iron gates, and after dropping one hundred and ten corpses in a row, no one came out to die. Anyway, if you fight in the streets, no matter how high your martial arts are, you can't show them, so in comfort and self-comfort, the yellow turbans began to stick to it with peace of mind.
On this day, Zhu Jun was discussing with the generals in the tent, and suddenly the small colonel patrolling the city sent half a broken arrow, and the silk book bound on it was Han Zhong's words to ask for surrender. Zhu Jun looked at it carefully for a while and asked, "Do you see whether this book is true or false?" ”
Everyone was talking, but Qiu Ming paid special attention to Sun Jian's actions, only to see that after reading the silk book, his face was cloudy and uncertain, and the cold light flashed in his eyes as if he wanted to choose someone to devour. Hearing Zhu Jun's question, Sun Jian arched his hand and said: "According to the end of the future, the yellow scarves in the city have not been fought and have not moved their vitality, so they will surrender to earn our army." ”
Qiu Ming secretly thought that if Han Zhong's surrender was something that Sun Jian didn't even know, it seemed to be true. He was about to speak, but saw Qin Jie come out and said: "On that day, Wancheng City was broken, and I destroyed all the granaries in the city before withdrawing, and the Yellow Turban thieves only knew how to loot but did not know production. ”
Sun Jian said loudly: "Captain Qin is also a person who knows the soldiers, the morale of the Yellow Turban was still high two days ago, and today he suddenly begged to surrender, even if he is short of food, he will not be cowardly so quickly, there must be fraud in it." ”
Zhu Jun looked at Qin Jie and Sun Jian arguing loudly, and suddenly said: "Regardless of whether it is true or not, let me ask, if it is true, do we have to accept it?" ”
Liu Bei immediately said: "Back then, Gaozu won the world with the capital of a pavilion chief, just because he could recruit Nashun, if Han Zhong really surrendered, why should we refuse him?" ”
Zhu Jun shook his head slowly: "At this time and that time, when the ancestors were in Qin Xiang standing side by side, the people had no fixed master, so they recruited surrenders and rewards to persuade those who come." Now that the world is unified, only the Yellow Turban rebels, and if it is allowed to surrender, there is no way to persuade goodness. Moreover, if the thief gains the profit, he will plunder arbitrarily, and if he loses, he will surrender, and the ambition of this thief is not a good strategy. Liu Bei hurriedly obeyed the teaching.
Qiu Ming's eyes rolled and said: "Since Zhonglang does not allow him to surrender, he just plans with his letter, whether it is true or not, we only need to follow the trend, and we will definitely be able to break the yellow scarf." ”
Han Zhonggao stood on top of the city tower, with a hesitant expression on his face, and he was never able to settle down. Since Sun Xia Tuo was sick, Han Zhong faintly felt that something was not quite right, the day before yesterday, a small yellow scarf beside Sun Zhong came to tell him that the Sun family was going to deal with him, Han Zhong was shocked, and from then on he only dared to live in the camp at the head of the city, and never left his knife all day long.
After thinking about it for two days, Han Zhong found that if he didn't join forces with Zhao Hong, it would be difficult to deal with Sun Xia and Sun Zhong, and Zhao Hong had already complained about his forcible struggle for military power these days, and he might not join hands with him. Thinking about it, it's better to surrender the officers and soldiers, and with the great merit of surrendering the city and surrendering, maybe you can also be rewarded with a knighthood.
After the book was shot, the attack of the official army really stopped temporarily, but there was no reply for a long time, and I don't know what the result will be. Han Zhong thought about it, there were not many people under his cronies, if he really wanted to open the door and dedicate the city, a thorn like Zhou Cang He Man needed to be controlled first. However, if the officers and soldiers are too stupid to enter the city and surrender without the slightest defense, they will not be able to really surrender and deceive, eat this group of officers and soldiers, and from then on part with Sun Xia and them, and happily be their own Yellow Turban Qu Shuai.
was in a nervous mood, and suddenly heard the officers and soldiers shouting in unison: "Listen to the yellow turbans in the city, your military rations have been exhausted, and Qu Shuai Han Zhong has already written a book to surrender, why don't you hurry up and open the city to welcome the heavenly soldiers." Han Zhong's eyes darkened, and he almost fell into the city.
