Chapter 18: Zang Feng

(Thank you for the comments and rewards of the clouds, cold wind and autumn wind in my hometown, Zhonglang sincerely thank you for your consistent support and encouragement!) )

··················

Chen stayed in the city.

Li Li looked at Chen Liucheng, who was four feet high and two feet thick, and was stunned.

With a city wall nearly ten meters high and five or six meters thick, Chen Liujian's city is worthy of its name!

(Note: In the Han Dynasty, one zhang was about 2.3~2.5 meters, and one foot was 23~25 cm; The book measures 23 centimeters in one foot. )

Chen Liujian City has long been famous.

In the past, the princes of the world would join the alliance to defeat Dong Zhuo, and the allied army camp was stationed in this city.

Subsequently, Dong Zhuo personally commanded an army of 300,000 troops out of the pass to conquer the allies, in an attempt to crush the alliance of princes in one fell swoop, and sent the vanguard Lu Bu to challenge Chen Liucheng before the battle.

In front of Lu Bu's prancing horse array, he raised his halberd and scolded all the princes, and shot the battle flag at the head of the city with arrows, showing his might.

Unexpectedly, Lu Bu's move led to the three brothers Liu Guanzhang who were unknown.

Chen Liuguan was closed, and the three heroes fought against Lu Bu, and became famous in the first battle, and the reputation spread at home.

Subsequently, the army of the princes attacked in large groups and defeated Dong Zhuo's army in one fell swoop, causing Dong Zhuo to hold Emperor Xian and hundreds of officials hostage and forcibly move the capital to Chang'an.

This time the troops came to Chenliu City again, Li Dao and other Xiliang generals can be said to have a lot of emotion, and the scene of the battle of Chenliu in the past instantly came to mind.

"General, Chen Liucheng is extremely strong, the city is high and the walls are thick, and it is not easy to attack. In the past, Xiangguo led an army of 300,000 and could not shake this city, and today we must not repeat the mistakes of the past and lose our troops! ”

The good old man Zhang Ji stared at Chen Liucheng and said in a deep voice to Li Ji.

Zhang Ji's deeply touched words were clearly heard by the Xiliang generals in front of the battle, and they nodded in agreement.

Li Dao nodded slightly and said, "Chen Liuchengjian can't attack strongly; If you can lure the enemy out of the city to fight, with more than 10,000 weak brigades under Zhang Miao, it is really a mantis arm blocking the car, and you can fight in a battle!

Wang Fang listened to the order and ordered you to close the challenge, as long as Zhang Miao went out of the city to face the battle, you would be the first in this battle! ”

Sure enough, Li Wei didn't know that late last night, Cao Cao sent Xiahoudun and Li Dian's second general to lead 3,000 foot soldiers to quietly enter the city to support Zhang Miao.

"No, the last general will take the order!"

Wang Fang gave up his hand, happily jumped out of the horse, ran to two hundred steps under the city, scolded Zhang Miao sharply, and made provocative remarks.

Li Li saw that Wang Fang went out to challenge, but Zhang Miao and the others who were closed did not respond immediately, and said softly to Li Wei: "Uncle, Zhang Miao has few soldiers, I am afraid that he will not fight easily, let alone go out of the city to fight with our army."

In this way, Chen Liucheng is strong, and it is difficult to capture it in a short time, so it is better to set up camp for the time being and besiege Chen Liu. Under the long-term trap, changes will inevitably occur in the city, and Zhang Miao will definitely find ways to raid our army. At that time, as long as our army makes proper use of fighter planes, it may be able to break the city in one battle. ”

Hearing this, Li Dao pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "That's the only way." Wait a little longer, our army has just arrived, and its morale can be boosted but not discharged, and today it must be attacked; Otherwise, the morale of the army will be unstable and it will be unfavorable to the war!

Li'er, you go to the rear army and cooperate with Fan Yong to guard the heavy grain and grass. You have made many achievements in battle before, and your soldiers and horses have suffered a lot of losses, so this time let other generals fight, lest they be dissatisfied and secretly resentful. ”

When Li Li heard this, he nodded in surprise, said no more, silently beat his horse and turned around, and returned to the rear army's foot soldiers.

"Zhang Miao's old man, but the Taishou of a county in Ru Tang is shrunk like a turtle, and he doesn't dare to go out of the city to fight, what face does he have to live in the world? Why don't you die, so as not to make the world laugh? ”

"Old horseman, do you dare to go out of the city to fight with my king? The old man is as timid as a mouse, dare to appear in front of people, embarrassed? ”

Chen stayed in the city, Wang Fang insulted in every way, shook all directions, and unscrupulously provoked Zhang Miao and others at the head of the city.

At the head of the city, although Zhang Miao was red-faced, red-eared, his eyes were full of fire, and he was full of resentment, he never moved, but he did not respond to the provocation of the king.

Listening to Wang Fang's shouting and scolding, Li Li rode his horse to Fan Yong, who was escorted by the rear army.

Bo Cai took three thousand Longxiang battalion foot soldiers to follow Fan Yong's army. After all, Li Li privately expanded the three thousand foot soldiers, which was too conspicuous and easy to be jealous, and if he was placed among Fan Yong's foot soldiers, it would not be too eye-catching.

Because Fan Yong originally had 5,000 foot soldiers, he had always been responsible for escorting the army's baggage, and it was reasonable to have more soldiers and horses.

At this moment, Bo Cai was whispering to Fan Yong, discussing the battle in front of him with great interest.

"Big brother, the big war is coming, why do you have the leisure to come to me?"

Fan Yong asked with a little surprise when he saw Li Li coming to the rear army with his personal guards.

Li Li turned his head and glanced at the front of the battle, shook his head, and said helplessly: "There are quite a lot of generals in the army, and it doesn't matter if I don't participate in the war." Our Xiliang Army is now a big business, with many soldiers and generals, your eldest brother and I have made a lot of achievements before, and this time it's time to be virtuous.

My uncle ordered me to stay in the rear army, join forces with your second brother, guard the ordnance and baggage, and escort grain and grass. How, do you have an opinion? ”

"How can I have an opinion on my eldest brother? But big brother, you have always been belligerent, and there is no fight this time, I'm afraid you can't bear the loneliness and feel resentful! Hehehe! ”

Fan Yong was not afraid that Li Li would be angry, so to tell the truth, he directly found out the reason for Li Li's gloomy expression.

was broken by Fan Yong's words, Li Li felt a lot more comfortable, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and said with a smile: "Okay, second brother, look at you stupid and coarse, but you are also so delicate, you can see through my heart, it's not simple!" It seems that my uncle sent you, a fierce general, to guard the baggage, and he really knew people well and used them right.

Since you're so smart, then I'm not welcome, big brother. After the army, you are still fully responsible for guarding, big brother, I will relax, watch the excitement, and practice martial arts.

Also, I have a word in advance, you have to take care of enough good wine and meat, this is your territory, you can't treat these brothers under me badly! ”

After Fan Yong heard this, he scratched his unkempt hair, and said helplessly: "Okay, big brother, just do as you say!" In fact, I have always taken special care of your subordinates, otherwise you expanded your troops by 3,000 half a month ago, where would you get the supply of food and grass, and I didn't give you Zhang Luo.

However, big brother, I am not the only one in the army who has the final say, and Li Zheng supervises the ordnance and food, you have to settle him. Otherwise, your 3,000 foot soldiers will be exposed sooner or later, and you will never be able to escape your uncle's ears and eyes. ”

"Hmmm! The second brother was very thoughtful, and I didn't want to hide it from my uncle, but it was better not to let him know for the time being. Li Zheng will be handled by me, and the second brother can rest assured. ”

Li Li said with a slight thought.

In fact, Li Zheng and Li Fu, father and son, have always taken great care of Li Li and obeyed his orders. Although Li Li's parents have long since died, his identity as the eldest son of three generations cannot be changed.

Don't look at Li Wei's authority now, but since ancient times, he has been in order, and the person who is most likely to take over the position of the head of the Li family in the future is still Li Li, who is now famous.

Therefore, Li Li didn't need to explain the reason to Li Zheng, just say hello, and Li Zheng would gladly take care of Bocai's department, and provide some ordnance and sufficient grain and grass as much as possible.

Xiliang people value family affection, which is an instinctive consciousness hidden deep in the blood, far beyond the shackles of military discipline and loyalty to Dong Zhuo, the current commander of the Xiliang Army.

At the moment, although Chen Liucheng is tense, all this has nothing to do with Li Li. It is very necessary for him to judge the situation and appropriately avoid hiding clumsiness.

In the first battle of Zhongmu, he has made many achievements. Xinzheng City broke tens of thousands of Zhu Jun rebels, and captured Zhu Jun himself at the foot of the lonely mountain, these merits were enough for him to win the whole army of Xiliang and get the opportunity to be promoted again.

In addition to him Li Li, there are many Xiliang generals under Li Dao who are eager to make contributions, and this time the 50,000 army is ready to fight, how can he be allowed to be alone in the front and dominate the military exploits.

What's more, the current commander of the Xiliang Army is still Dong Boss, in addition to the five major lieutenant generals, even Li Dao himself is only temporarily serving as the chief general of the army, and it is not Li Li's turn to do whatever he wants.

In addition, under the fierce battles, especially after the Jedi survived in the battle with Zhu Jun, Li Li found that his martial arts were still too poor.

Although he has the strength of a first-class general, what is the first-class general in this troubled world, and the princes don't have a large number of first-class generals?

Not to mention, there are a large number of first-class generals under Dong Zhuo, and the five major lieutenant generals are all first-class in martial arts, and each lieutenant general has at least three or five captains with first-class martial arts, and there are five top generals above these first-class generals.

It's just that Hua Xiong, one of the five generals, has died in battle, and now he is the four generals, Lu Bu, Li Dao, Guo Yan and Fan Chou.

These are only military generals on the surface, in fact, there are more or less hidden brave generals under each captain.

For example, Li Zheng and Li Fu under Li Dao, Guo Meng's brother Guo Meng, Zhang Ji's nephew Zhang Xiu and Hu Ren's fierce general Hu Che'er, Fan Chou's nephew Fan Yong, Niu Fu's subordinate general Wu Xi, etc., these generals all have first-class skills, and even some of them still have the initial combat power of top generals.

Compared with these fierce generals, Li Li's martial arts are still far behind, and he is not ranked at all.

As for strategy, with Li Wei holding military power and being loyal to Dong Zhuo, many of Li Li's plans are difficult to implement, and they are constrained everywhere, and they are useless in the short term.

From the memory of the late original owner "Li Li", Li Li knew that he had been practicing martial arts diligently before, and even Li Xian and Fan Yong's martial arts were the superb martial arts that he practiced by pulling the two of them to spar.

After Li Li experienced two life-and-death Jedi encounters, his martial arts have also improved, and now he has entered the middle level of first-class martial arts generals, steadily moving towards the later stage.

It's just the way of martial arts, their own talent is very important, Li Xian and Fan Yong are born with divine power and talent, so the martial arts are progressing very quickly, and the latecomers are on top, but they leave the older Li Li behind.

After Li Xian went through a fierce battle, his martial arts have advanced greatly, and now he is close to the first-class military generals; After the fierce battle between Fan Yong and Bo Cai, he had already touched the mystery of the powerful aura of the top generals, and faintly stepped into the sequence of top generals.

was left far behind by the two brothers, which made Li Li embarrassed.

Therefore, these days, he has been practicing martial arts diligently day and night, often pulling Li Xian and Fan Yong as sparring partners, almost to the extent of forgetting to sleep and eat.

Anyway, Li Li can't change the overall situation at the moment, and many jihua can't be gradually implemented until he returns to Chang'an, so practicing martial arts is undoubtedly the most hode thing to pass the time.
