Of course, Li Yi also has his own pride, and as long as there is still a glimmer of hope of winning, he will not give up.

For Cao Cao's hesitation in Liyang, Li Yi was very puzzled. Although his army is not large, only more than 10,000 people, it is a force that can break the balance of the battle situation in Yecheng.

You must know that this army is the most elite of the imperial court's northern army, with 3,000 heavy infantry, equipped with armor and weapons carefully crafted by the top craftsmen, which can be said to be the strategic deterrent force of the imperial court. If it weren't for the fact that the situation on the battlefield in Yuzhou was too dangerous and the threat to the capital of Luoyang was too great, the imperial court would not have let this army fight at all.

That is, Cao Cao's identity is special, his grandfather Cao Teng is the patriarch of the eunuch family, and his father Cao Song is the backbone of the hundred officials, which has not only been recognized by the eunuchs and the hundred officials, but also has the trust of the Son of Heaven, otherwise no one can lead this army to the battle.

Initially, when Cao Cao conquered Puyang and crossed the river, Li Yi was happy for a while. Because as a traverser, he knows Cao Cao's ability, and with him leading such an elite army north, then he will definitely win this battle. But he never expected that after this goods led the army into Liyang, he would not move his nest.

In this regard, Li Yi is also very helpless. Although nominally he is the commander of the Jizhou battlefield, he knows very well that not to mention that they have no friendship with each other, even if they are acquaintances, it is difficult for a hero like Cao Cao to obey his dispatch.

When it comes to the critical time, it is still your own people who can be relied on.

Li Yi sent people to contact Yue Fei every day, hoping that he would immediately launch substantive actions to solve Yecheng's urgent needs. Now the defenders in the city are already a little insufficient, and if Zhang Jiao attacks for a few more days, Yecheng may not be able to hold it.

Under the leadership of Zhang Jiao, the Yellow Turban Army had a very strong will to fight, and they were not afraid of death when they fought, and some of them even seemed to not know what death and pain were, and they were seriously injured and still fought to the death.

Li Yi and the Youzhou army have seen such soldiers, but the remnants of the northern army of the imperial court, as well as the private soldiers of those powerful lords, have never seen them, so their momentum has been completely suppressed.

The fierce attack of the Yellow Turban Army made up for the defects in the quality of the soldiers, and its combat effectiveness far exceeded that of the remnants of the Northern Army of the Imperial Court, as well as the powerful private army of the lords that Li Yi had formed through coercion and inducement.

Such a result greatly exceeded Li Yi's expectations.

Originally, in his opinion, the equipment of the private army was so good, and the quality of the individual soldiers was even more eloquent, after all, it was carefully selected and trained by the major powerful men to protect their elite soldiers. Unexpectedly, this patchwork army only lasted for more than ten days, and was beaten by the Yellow Turban Army, and Yecheng was also in danger.

However, none of the people sent out could find Yue Fei and his cavalry, they were like air, and suddenly disappeared without a trace.

Li Yi was anxious, and his heart was full of worries, very worried about their safety. After all, although Yue Fei's army was all cavalry, it was also a lone army. At present, there are nearly 400,000 Yellow Turban troops gathered in Julu County, Wei County and Qinghe Country. Once Yue Fei's army is encircled, even with Yue Fei's ability, I am afraid that it will not be able to eat and walk around.

………………

Sun Qin and Fang Bao made up their minds, and set up camp in Ping'en's old city, and after Chu Yan's troops arrived, they set off together to rush to the Yecheng battlefield.

This batch of grain and grass supplies is too important for the Yellow Turban Army, once it is lost, the more than 100,000 Yellow Turban Army under Yecheng will have a tragic ending of food collapse in the south.

Therefore, apart from strengthening the guard of the camp day and night, they did not even send out a scout. Because the scouts sent out were all wiped out by the scouts of the Youzhou Army without exception, and they couldn't send back any useful information. Rather than sending the elite scouts to their deaths in vain, it is better not to send them out.

Sun Qin sent someone to inform Zhang Jiao of their intentions, hoping to get Zhang Jiao's approval.

Zhang Jiao thought that Sun Qin's consideration was very appropriate, and agreed that they should not leave the ancient city of Ping'en for the time being, in case they were raided by the Youzhou army.

The scouts of the Youzhou army rushed to Ping'en's old city on time every day, four times a day, with more than a dozen people at a time. Each time, they watched from afar at the Yellow Turban Army's camp for a while, and then sped away.

The Yellow Turban Army is also used to it, as if they didn't see it, and they ignore it.

Zhang Baiqi hurriedly walked into Zhang Jiao's big tent and shouted, "Great sage and good teacher......"

Zhang Jiao was reading some documents sent by his subordinates. Hearing this, he raised his head, beckoned Zhang Baiqi to sit diagonally opposite him, and said: "Shudong came to the book and said that he had blocked Huangfu Song's attack in Qingyuan and Guantao on the front line of the Great River, and the situation in Qinghe Country and Anping Country and Julu County was relatively good. Yanzi is coming to Yecheng, and I plan to let Zigan stay in Guangzong to raise grain and grass for us. ”

Zhang Baiqi asked: "Great sage and good teacher, how is Sun Shuai in Ping'en Ancient City?" ”

"They and Yue Fei's troops have been in a stalemate, and no one moves? Now it depends on whether the Swallows' troops can arrive in time. With Yanzi's character, he would definitely not let go of this opportunity to annihilate Yue Fei. Zhang Jiao said coldly.

Zhang Baiqi nodded with a smile and said, "It all depends on whether Chu Shuai's troops can secretly rush to Ping'en's Ancient City and then quietly cross the river." If he can do it without knowing it, Sun Shuai will use grain and grass as bait to lure Yue Fei to lead the army to attack, and the two armies will attack at the same time, which will definitely make the Youzhou Iron Cavalry disappear and cut off Li Yi's arm. ”

"Yes. The key is to be secretive and not let the enemy find out, otherwise Xiao Zuo's revenge will be difficult to avenge. Zhang Jiao pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Zize, how about we quietly put the main force at the south gate tomorrow?" ”

"The great sage and good teacher are in a hurry." Zhang Baiqi said with a smile.

Zhang Jiao smiled on his face, and said with his head bowed: "We have been attacking the city for more than ten days, and we have lost 50,000 brothers before and after, in order to be able to take Yecheng in one fell swoop." ”

"Today, the officers and soldiers have been busy on the East City Gate for a busy day, and Li Yi has tried his best to prepare to defend the East City Gate tomorrow. If he knew that we were attacking the south gate tomorrow, I'm afraid he would have jumped off the building. Zhang Baiqi said with a smile, "The news from the city also confirms our conjecture, the south, west and north gates are now only defended by 3,000 people, and we send more than 60,000 troops to attack, and it is estimated that we can take the city in one hour." ”

Zhang Jiao shook his head and said, "I attacked a little more fiercely at the east gate and dragged Li Yi's main force." You personally supervised the battle at the south gate, and took it in half an hour, at all costs. After a long time, Li Yi or Guan Yu will be in trouble if they bring people to support the past. ”

Zhang Baiqi gently slapped the table and shouted excitedly, "Okay." Li Yi and several generals under his command are the best at attacking the west, so let's give him a way to repay the other! ”

………………

Late at night. There is no moon in the sky, only a few faint stars scattered in the sky.

The camp of the Yellow Turban Army was silent, except for a few cowhide lamps hanging on the high gate, there was not a single light in the entire camp.

Zhang Jiao stood on a slightly higher slope and watched his troops walk out of the camp in batches.

Now there is still half an hour before dawn, and half of the 40,000 troops ready to move to the south gate have already left.

Thinking about the scene of tomorrow's troops breaking through the south gate and the army entering Yecheng, Zhang Jiao's mood is particularly good.

Tomorrow after the capture of Yecheng, Wei County will basically be in the bag, and the rest is to go south to eliminate the two reinforcements sent by the imperial court, Cao Cao and Huangfu Song, and occupy all the areas north of the Great River.

If Li Yi led the cavalry to abandon the city and flee at a critical moment, and Yue Fei, who was in the ancient city of Ping'en, could also escape the trap set by Chu Yan and Sun Qin, then one more thing was to encircle and intercept the Youzhou army, and avenge the second brother who died in Youzhou and hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban brothers.

After that, it was to use the big river moat as a barrier to block the army of the imperial court, and further occupy the entire land of Hebei Sanzhou. In this way, he has the real capital to confront the imperial court, even if it is a matter of course to dominate the world.

Former Qin can dominate the world with the land of Yongzhou and Yongzhou, and he has a big river and a moat, as well as the rich Jizhou plus Youzhou and Merge State, which are rich in war horses, can't he do what Former Qin has already done?

The sky is dead, and it is the time when my yellow sky should stand!

Just when Zhang Jiao was excited, a loud noise suddenly came from the direction of the south city gate, and the sound was so loud that it tore through the silence of the night in an instant.

Immediately after, the low and majestic sound of drums and horns rose into the sky, resounding through the dark night sky.
