Military advisor Xu Ji frowned as he read the contents of the letter.
"What kind of fraud could there be in the afternoon two days later? Xu Ji, you are too suspicious."
Yin Ji said with a smile, and everyone else nodded. Besides, the fight was just what he said in the letter to Fan Cheng.
Pang Tong couldn't guess what the real intention was. Although the time was delayed for a day or two, the other party must have made preparations.
Xu Ji murmured to himself that it would not matter if the time was delayed by one day, as the army on his side had the advantage in strength.
Fancheng's soldiers and horses were divided into three groups, and even if they wanted to play some conspiracy, it was of no avail.
It's just that there is always an uneasy feeling in my heart, but at this time everyone in the big tent is excited, even the lord, so I'm afraid it will be useless to say anything else.
At this time, in the hall of Xinye, Emperor Liu's uncle Liu Bei listened to his men reporting the battle situation in the direction of Fancheng.
"My subordinates discovered that Cai Mao, the general of the Mufu of Jizhou, led an army of 80,000 for a long time and failed to conquer Fancheng. He lost many troops and generals, and is now engaged in a tug of war..."
"We also found out that Liu Xian and Deng Yi, the counselors of Jizhou Mufu, went to the city lord's palace at the same time to persuade the palace lord Liu Cong to stop fighting and shake hands with the eldest son Liu Qi to make peace. Unfortunately, the palace lord refused..."
As the spies reported the news one by one, Liu Bei couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"Liu Qi is really powerful. Even though he is not in Fancheng, he is assisted by two wizards, Xu Shu and Fengchu Pang Tong. He only has an army of 50,000 people, but Cai Mao's 80,000 army is helpless..."
Looking at myself, after several years of fighting in the north and south, the number of soldiers under my command has become less and less. Even the new fields are borrowed.
If military advisor Jian Yong hadn't come up with an idea last time to take advantage of the situation, I'm afraid he wouldn't even be able to pay out the soldiers' monthly pay.
They are both members of the Han clan, so they are so infuriating.
At this time, Zhang Fei, who was standing aside, muttered that Huang Zhong was really awesome.
If 50,000 horses can resist 80,000 horses, it is natural to think that Fancheng's generals are powerful.
"The difference that General Zhang said is that less is more than more. Generals are important, but strategy is even more important. In my opinion, it is Pang Tong who has strategized for thousands of miles, which is why he is like this."
"You are worthy of the reputation of Feng Chu!"
Military advisor Jian Yong kept praising him, which made Liu Bei feel bad.
"Military advisor, now that the two Lius are fighting, how about we just sit back and watch?"
Zhang Fei said carelessly, his hands itched when he heard about fighting.
At this time Liu Bei and Guan Yu also looked over, and now the only resourceful and talented person in Xinye was Military Advisor Jian Yong.
"Of course I won't give up such a good opportunity. My subordinate has already thought of several strategies and is just about to discuss it with the lord and the two generals."
As Jian Yong finished explaining his strategies, Liu Bei's face turned white and red.
"Xianhe, I'm afraid this is not good. After all, we are still borrowing a place. If Palace Master Liu Cong finds out about it in the future, I'm afraid we will have to move again."
Liu Bei said slowly, mainly because his military advisor's ideas were too damaging.
"Brother, the military advisor's idea is not bad. I think it will work..."
"I think it's not bad either..."
The two brothers Guan and Zhang were both in high spirits, and it was too boring to spend all day training soldiers in Xinye.
Woo...
By the agreed deadline, Cai Mao's army was ready to go.
In the first battle, General Huo Jun was tall and burly, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He had a tall horse on his hip, he was covered in armor, and he was holding a three-ring sword in his hand.
"A certain Huo Jun is coming, who dares to fight in Fancheng?"
At this time, Huang Zhong and Zhou Cang from Fancheng also came to the front of the formation with 30,000 troops.
"A certain Zhoucang came."
Hearing the opponent's call for formation, Zhou Cang dismounted his horse and fired out with a spear in his hand.
"Zhou Cang? It turned out to be a remnant of the Yellow Turbans. He was beaten to a pulp by my army. Unexpectedly, he actually took refuge in Fancheng. This general made me laugh to death..."
Huo Jun let out a burst of ridicule. Of course, it was just bragging. The Yellow Turban Army was not as bad as they said.
On the contrary, some of the Yellow Turban Army were quite powerful. If Tiangong General Zhang Jue hadn't died of illness and the morale of the army was in chaos, the outcome might have been different.
Huo Jun was just following General Huangpu Song to fight for a while, but at least he had the capital to show off.
"My dear Huo Jun, you are very good at talking and talking, but I don't know if you learned your sword skills from your master's wife?"
call……
Huo Jun, who was originally very proud, was momentarily stunned by these words.
What does it mean to learn from the master's wife? This is too damaging to say.
The soldiers on both sides couldn't help laughing after reacting, and the Tiger Blade Army on the Fancheng side laughed even louder.
After all, Huo Jun is also a general, and the soldiers in Jizhou covered their mouths and snickered.
"Suffer death, little Zhou Cang..."
With a whoosh, Huo Jun, who was on the horse, waved the two-edged knife in his hand and slashed at Zhou Cang who was opposite.
Split Huashan with all your strength!
The two-edged sword made a piercing sound in the air and whizzed down.
Huo Jun was so angry just now that he used 80% of his strength when he came up.
"Well done!"
Zhou Cang, who was on the opposite side, shouted loudly and charged forward with the spear in his hand.
The dragon goes out to sea!
That sentence about the remnant of the Yellow Turban actually made Zhou Cang angry.
Even when the protagonist Liu Qi mentioned Zhang Jiao, the Tiangong general of the Yellow Turban Army, it was fair.
In an instant, the two-edged sword and the spear collided in mid-air, causing sparks to fly and making a loud noise.
"This thief is so powerful!"
Huo Jun felt a pain in his wrist after the blow, and the two-edged knife flew up.
He couldn't help shouting in his heart, and then the two-edged sword changed its moves again and stabbed Zhou Cang in the chest.
"This guy is quite strong."
Zhou Cang also felt a numbness and pain in his wrist. The opponent's strength was about the same as his own.
Seeing the double-edged sword stabbing him, the spear in his hand also changed its moves, using the blocking technique.
In an instant, the two of them fought for more than ten rounds, and their sword skills were extremely fierce.
The spear also moved in a straight line, and the spear never left Huo Jun's body's vital points.
"Okay, General Huo Jun is mighty and majestic..."
Jizhou Mu's soldiers waved flags and shouted from behind.
"General Zhou is mighty and domineering..."
Fancheng's Tiger Blade Army was also shouting, and the drums on both sides kept beating. Huo Jun and Zhou Cang were killing fiercely for a while.
"Zhou Cang in Fancheng is also very capable!"
General Cai Mao, who was watching the battle from a distance, said disdainfully, thinking that his subordinate Huo Jun could kill Zhou Cang with three strikes, five divided by two.
"General, don't be anxious. As long as the other party dares to leave the city, great things will be done."
Counselor Yin Ji said with a smile.
“Not bad, not bad.”
General Cai Mao said both of them were good, with a smile on his face, so he would first let his generals frustrate the opponent's spirit.
"I am Zhang Yun of Jizhou Mufu. Who dares to fight?"
Just when Huo Jun and Zhou Cang were locked in a fight, Zhang Yun, the general behind him, couldn't help but rush out, the spear in his hand emitting a cold light.
