Chapter 655: Sending troops

A soldier from the Liaodong Army fell under a huge rock and a crossbow, and the defenders on the city gradually calmed down from their initial fear. The tragic situation of the enemy gradually increased the morale of the newly recruited soldiers.

"If the enemy attacks the city, when they are halfway through the climb, throw the stone down and keep it, let them cry and call their parents, and even the soldiers below will be in trouble." A veteran took the opportunity to teach his experience to the recruits beside him.

The recruits kept nodding, and although their hands holding the spear were still trembling, their eyes towards the enemy outside the city became increasingly firm.

"Before the enemy goes to the city, you must protect yourself first and try to lean your head against the city wall. After the enemy climbs onto the city wall, there will be a brief stop. Just stab the spear in your hand." The veteran patted the soldier's shoulder and said.

With the greeting of the crossbow and the thunder chariot, after half a day of siege, the Liaodong army lost 500 people, but there were only a few earth bags filled into the moat. From a distance, the moat still ripples in the breeze.

Gongsun Kang gave the order to retreat with a gloomy face. The news from the scouts said that there were no thunder chariots and bed crossbows in the east and north of the city.

After Xu You learned that there were such powerful weapons as pili chariots and pili chariots in the city, he thought it was not good. In the Battle of Dangyin, the Jizhou army suffered a lot of losses on pili chariots and pili chariots. The Bingzhou army's pili chariots and pili chariots were not only long-range, but also extremely accurate. He did not expect that Lu Bu would arrange the pili chariots and pili chariots in Youbeiping City. It should be noted that pili chariots and pili chariots are powerful weapons to defend the city. Jizhou has pili chariots and pili chariots, and they are also hidden, for fear of being leaked. Isn't Lu Bu afraid that Tian Yu has a strange intention? Tian Yu was a general under Gongsun Zan before.

"Sir, the Liaodong Army in the south of the city is so miserable that it lost hundreds of people before even approaching the city wall." Chen Shi said excitedly.

Tian Yu nodded slightly and placed fifty thunderbolt chariots and thirty bed crossbows together. If the enemy cannot be repelled, it would be a strange thing. No matter how powerful the Liaodong army is, it cannot even get close to the moat. How can it attack the city?

As long as the number of thunderbolt chariots and crossbows is sufficient, Tian Yu is even confident that it will be difficult for the enemy to fill the moat.

However, there are 40,000 enemy troops outside the city, and there is not much food and grass in the city at this time, which is only enough for the army to need for a month. This is also the season of harvest. As long as the grain and grass are harvested in Youbeiping, the pressure on the food and grass can be alleviated. However, at this time, the enemy's besiege in the city will still give Youbeiping time to deal with it.

Jinyang, Bingzhou Prefecture, Lu Bu read the battle report from Youzhou with a low expression and handed it to Jia Xu on the side.

"Lord, the Wuhuan people are united with Yan Rou again. The Liaodong army dispatched 20,000 elite troops. Judging from the subordinates, someone must have matched them." Jia Xu said: "Tatun and Yan Rou are in conflict, and the two sides are fighting endlessly. Gongsun Du from Liaodong has no dispute with Youzhou, but he dispatched 20,000 troops. It seems that Gongsun Du wants to capture Youzhou counties."

Lu Bu slapped the table heavily and snorted coldly: "It seems that Tadun and Yan Rou have forgotten the power of the Bingzhou Army."

According to Lu Bu's idea, the Xianbei people were the first to launch troops, and secretly ordered the Wuhuan people to attack the Xianbei people. As long as the Xianbei people were cleaned up, it would not be easy to deal with the Wuhuan people. Unexpectedly, a Liaodong army jumped out in the middle.

"How much do you know about the Liaodong Army?" Lu Bu asked in a deep voice.

"Lord, Gongsun Du from Liaodong was recommended by Xu Rong as the prefect of Liaodong. After occupying Liaodong, Gongsun Du proclaimed himself king and did not obey the court's orders. Although Gongsun Du was old, his son Gongsun Kang was brave and resourceful, and was loved by the soldiers in the army. The Liaodong army had about 40,000 troops. This time, he dispatched 20,000 troops to attack Youbeiping. It was expected that Gongsun Du was unwilling to be lonely and wanted to get a share of the pie in Youzhou."

Lu Bu sneered: "I'm so old and want to raise troops, aren't you afraid of having a life to enjoy it? It seems that the Gongsun family has been in Liaodong for too long, and I don't know how powerful the soldiers under this marquis are."

"Lord, the Gongsun family in Liaodong has always been in good terms with Jizhou. This time when the Liaodong army fought in Youzhou, there must be Jizhou behind it. Otherwise, Yan Rou and the Wuhuan people would not unite. It is said that Gongsun Xu fled to the army outside the city after the failed rebellion in Youbeiping." Jia Xu said.

"Wubeiping, I will attack the Wuhuan people and Liaodong, so that Yuan Shao can understand that no matter how many conspiracies or tricks there are, it will be in vain in the face of absolute force."

"After passing on the order of this marquis, Zhang Liao rushed to Jinyang after receiving the order, and the Hedong defenders in Henoi should not slacken." Lu Bu said that there were not enough powerful generals who stood alone in Youzhou, which was not conducive to rule.

"Lord, General Zhao is brave and resourceful, and is a talented general who stands alone. As long as you send General Zhao Yun to lead three thousand cavalry to assist Youzhou, Youzhou will be free of worries." Jia Xu said.

Lu Bu smiled and said, "Wenhe means that, this marquis understands that the war begins, how can this marquis sit and watch? After the Youzhou affairs are pacified, this marquis will lead troops from Youzhou to attack the Xianbei. Wenhe ordered Zilong to lead the flying cavalry to go out of Yanmen Pass to attack the Xianbei. The military advisors are in the middle to dispatch it. This time, it is not just about pacifying Youzhou. What this marquis wants is a stable Youzhou and Bingzhou, otherwise how to compete with the princes of the Central Plains."

"Don't take flying cavalry and horses on this trip?" Jia Xu said in surprise. Lu Bu went to fight in person. He was prepared for his thoughts. The words just now were to dispel Lu Bu's idea of ​​personally cruising. Facts proved that the flying cavalry is the most powerful soldier in Bingzhou. The reason why the wolf cavalry is slightly weak is that it is not as good as the flying cavalry in terms of weapons. All the scimitars of the flying cavalry are made of steel.

Lu Bu nodded and said, "The elite flying cavalry will be used to attack the Xianbei in the future. The archers and cavalry under Han Sheng's command have been trained for quite a while. They need to go through the test of the battlefield before they can become real elites."

Jia Xu said: "In Jizhou, the first to climb the dead soldiers, they are brave and good at fighting. The lord can take General Gao's camp to the trap of General Gao."

"Then Gao Shun was ordered to lead the camp, transport food, supplies and supplies, and go to Ji County first." Lu Bu said that he would use thunder chariots and crossbows to compete with the Jizhou army and the Wuhuan people. These two things were surprisingly winning items.

"Here." Jia Xu bowed, the soldiers of the camp were escorted to food and supplies, which could ensure that the food and supplies were foolproof. The camp was an elite soldier who fought to the death in the face of the cavalry. It was the strongest team in the infantry battle in Bingzhou, and Gao Shun was calm.

After arranging the relevant matters, Lu Bu returned to the Marquis' Mansion. He had just fought last year. He didn't expect to go to Youzhou again after half a year. This battle was also a stable battle under his rule. If the Wuhuan people, Yan Rou and Liaodong could be dealt with, it would play a crucial role in the future situation. Liaodong would have belonged to Youzhou.
