Sun Quan and his advisers went back and forth, and Xuzhou was the best target. Although Xuzhou was considered Cao Cao's territory, it was occupied by Zang Ba. Attacking Xuzhou would reassure Cao Cao, and going north would reassure Long Fei. It was the best of both worlds. Sun Quan's The reply was that Jiang Gan was gone. Whoever did it would do it. Sun Quan immediately appointed Lu Su as the governor and borrowed the Dragon Army warship to transport troops and horses across the Yangtze River. When Zang Ba of Xuzhou received the news, he was furious!
Zang Ba of Xuzhou also fought for self-reliance. Although he returned to Cao Cao, he did not listen to his orders. He actually covered the sky with one hand in Xuzhou. How could the arrival of Jiangdong Army reassure him? He immediately ordered Wu Dun and Yili to lead their troops in Chengde and Tu Zhongxianbu Let go, preparing to crush Jiangdong's army. However, after crossing the river, Jiangdong's army did not rush forward. On the contrary, it spread out from left to right, led by Han Dang all the way to Jiangdu, and led by Xu Sheng all the way to Hefei.
Zang Ba saw that Sun Quan's troops were approaching fiercely, and he hurriedly went to Chen Deng for discussion. Chen Deng sneered and said: "General, you think you have never been defeated. Why do you want to ask me this time? There are still things to deal with in Xiapi City, so as not to delay the general's important affairs , my subordinates took their leave!"
Sun Kang said sternly: "Sir, if you just leave like this, aren't you afraid that Xuzhou will fall into the hands of the Jiangdong people? Don't forget that Xiapi, where your home is located, is also the boundary of Xuzhou!"
"Haha!" Chen Deng said with a smile: "Sun Quan won't embarrass a low-level official like me! But the generals are all people with military power. If the people from Jiangdong attack, there should be no chance, right?"
"Okay, okay!" Zang Ba quickly grabbed Sun Kang and said to Chen Deng: "Now is our critical moment in Xuzhou. Sir and we should share the same enemy. If the Jiangdong Army is defeated, I will immediately report to the King of Wei. How about being the governor of Pengcheng?"
"Is it a deal?" Chen Deng turned to look at Zang Ba. Zang Ba nodded, and the two of them had reached an agreement.
When the whole world was in distress, only Long Feixian had nothing to do. He led everyone on the huge sand table every day to calculate the war in Xiliang. In seven days, the army has arrived at Jincheng, and a little further west is Wuwei. As long as it takes Wuwei and Xiliang, it will be in the pocket. Moreover, Cao Cao's army has arrived in Luoyang and will enter the pass immediately.
Long Fei looked at the sand table: "Should we take action too? After holding back for so long, do you want to exercise?"
Dian Wei waved his iron halberd: "I've wanted to do it for a long time. My iron halberd hasn't tasted human blood for a long time!"
"You are not allowed to go!"
"Ah? Why?" Dian Wei's eyes were as wide as bull's eyes.
Guo Jia smiled and said: "General Dian Wei! Everyone in the world doesn't know who doesn't know, and you didn't scare them all away when you left. My lord wants to give you a better mission, let you follow the Southern Barbarian Army and take a detour to Wuwei. Secure those Qiang people!"
"Haha! Xiao Guozi's words are still fun to listen to! Okay! I'll go and if anyone is disobedient, I'll use this iron halberd to greet him!" Dian Wei laughed.
Just do it, Long Fei immediately ordered Xian Yufu to sneak into Chang'an first, thinking that he would be an internal response. He sent Ma Chao to capture Tianshui again. Then he sent Zhao Yun to detour from Wancheng, blockaded Tongguan and completely blocked Cao's army from Tongguan. These were all things they had already done. The plan is in place and the troops and horses are already in place. All they have to do is wait for Long Fei to give the order and execute it.
Meng Shuo said: "Lord, shouldn't it be time for our people to withdraw as well?"
Long Fei shook his head: "Don't worry. With his ability, it's easy to escape. What we have to do is how to make him gain Xia Houyuan's trust. This is the most powerful thing for us."
As the saying goes, if you don't cry, you will be a blockbuster. When the Dragon Army moved, the world was shocked. First of all, it was Yu Jin. When the soldiers and horses arrived at Tongguan, they saw that the Dragon Army flag had been planted. I was shocked. This was just one of them. When I saw clearly that it was Zhao Yun's military flag, I gasped.
He breathed a sigh of relief. He, Le Jin, and Li Dian were no match for Zhao Yun, not to mention that they now occupied Tongguan, making it even more difficult to pass.
Le Jin sighed: "Zhao Yun appears here, it seems Chang'an cannot be protected!"
Li Diandao: "We did not receive a letter asking for help from Chang'an. Zhao Yun should have come from Wancheng to cut off Chang'an's retreat. As long as we can get in touch with Chang'an and attack from inside and outside, it will not be difficult to capture Tongguan."
Yu Jin shook his head: "There is no hope! Even if Zhao Yun comes from Wancheng, Chang'an is probably suffering from internal and external troubles now. Long Fei always thinks carefully about his actions and will never let his sworn brother go deep alone and be in danger."
"Then what should we do? We can't just go back like this, right?" Le Jin and Li Dian looked at Yu Jin. Yu Jin ordered camp to be set up on the spot and sent people to Yecheng to report to Cao Cao and ask Cao Cao to make a decision. The rescue mission was declared a failure.
As Yu Jin expected, Zhang Ji had been in a state of anxiety these past few days. Suddenly, a group of men in black appeared in the city overnight. This group of men specialized in killing wealthy households and officials, and made a big announcement that the Dragon Army was about to attack.
The news from Chang'an kept the people awake all night. They were waiting for the moment when the Dragon Army entered the city. The people of Jingzhou and Yizhou were famous for their wealth, and the arrival of the Dragon Army became the motivation for the people to look forward to.
.
In order to appease these people, Zhang Ji sent a large number of people to persuade them door to door. At the same time, he organized soldiers and horses to search the city. Originally, these two things could have achieved good results if done separately. It can only be said that Zhang Ji had nothing to do and needed to stabilize the situation in Chang'an as soon as possible.
After saying all the good things, they broke into the house and ransacked it. The people even lost interest in Cao Jun.
After struggling for several days, nothing was gained, not even the shadow of the man in black was found. Since he couldn't catch the man, he had to defend himself. Knowing that he should enter the city, this was the only way. Zhang Ji sat down
On the city tower, I don't take off my armor and don't sleep, watching the movements outside the city every day. As long as I can persist in the arrival of reinforcements, Chang'an will be off to a good start again.
"Report...! My lord, Dragon Army soldiers and horses appeared fifty miles outside the city! There are many people and they are coming towards Chang'an!"
Zhang Ji took a breath. He didn't expect it to come so quickly. According to the time, the reinforcements should have arrived a long time ago. Why was there no movement? After thinking about it, Zhang Ji shook his head and smiled bitterly. He seemed to understand. He grabbed the sword and stabbed himself.
He cut off a piece of his shirt, bit off his middle finger, and wrote a letter with his own blood. After rolling it up, he handed it to the messenger: "Send this letter to General Xiahou immediately, and you won't have to come back. But
Let’s take a detour to Yecheng and report to the lord that Chang’an has been lost in Xiliang!”
The messenger took the letter with both hands: "Sir, where are you?"
"Don't worry about me, go ahead!"
After seeing off the scouts, Zhang cheered up and walked around the city wall while shouting: "The Dragon Army is coming! Cheer up, Chang'an is our home, and guarding Chang'an means guarding the home! The Dragon Army kills people without blinking an eye.
, if we break into Chang'an, life will be ruined! Please cheer up and prepare to face the enemy!"
Long Fei personally led the army to Chang'an. Chang'an is the bridgehead of Xiliang. If he captures this place, Xia Houyuan will never be able to escape. If he captures this place, he can form a complete defense to completely block Cao Cao in Guandong. Xian Yufu has sent a message,
They lit the fire as a signal to attack the west gate, and they were ready. Looking at the Chang'an city wall on the map, Long Fei remembered the time when he was in Chang'an.
It has been going around and around and back again for so many years. It is just a big circle. What is life like? Come naked and leave naked, bringing nothing and taking nothing away. Instead of fighting for power and profit, it is better to have peace.
Get along. No matter how powerful you are, how much money you have, it won't matter until the moment of death.
Chen Dao led Ma Yunlu into the tent and saluted: "My lord, everything is ready, we are just waiting for General Xianyu's signal!"
Long Fei nodded and looked at Chen Dao and Ma Yunlu: "This battle will be left to you and your wife. My brother and sister are the first female generals in ancient times. Whether you can gallop on the battlefield like a man depends on your performance today!"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Yunlu will definitely fulfill his mission!" Ma Yunlu was named the General of the Disaster Relief by Long Fei. He and Huang Shuo's strategist general must have not only soldiers but also the ability to go to the battlefield. This also achieved the most glorious moment for a woman.
Later generations called Ma Yunlu the first female general.
After a busy day, Zhang Ji just sat down to rest. He thought that the Long Army would attack the city immediately, but there was no movement for the whole afternoon. Zhang Ji was slightly relieved. Although Long Fei had sneak attack skills, the Chang'an City was tall and solid.
Sneak attacks had no effect at all, not to mention that attacking the city at night had never happened before. Zhang believed that Long Fei would not attack the city at night.
Just as he picked up a bowl of water, he suddenly saw a burst of fire rising into the sky from the west gate, brightly illuminating the entire city of Chang'an. Zhang Ji immediately realized the problem and hurriedly sent reinforcements. When Zhang Ji arrived at the west gate,
At that moment, the pair of men in black appeared again. This group of people had a clear division of labor. One group was responsible for opening the city gate, and the rest blocked the oncoming Cao army.
Zhang Ji was shocked: "Quick! Stop them and don't let them open the city gate! Where are the archers...?"
"Squeak, squeak, squeak..." The huge wooden city gate was pushed open by someone. Outside the city wall, a large number of cavalry came crazily. Looking at the black soldiers and horses, Zhang Ji remained motionless and muttered silently: "
It’s over, it’s over! It’s all over!”
The cavalry rushed into the gate and immediately started moving towards other city gates. In less than half an hour, the four gates of Chang'an City opened. Chen Dao pointed his spear: "Brothers! Kill...! Take Chang'an!"
Ma Yunlu glanced at him: "Husband, go to the Yamen immediately! I'm here." Without waiting for Chen Dao to answer, Ma Yunlu raised his war horse, and the horse rose into the air, stepping on Cao Jun who was coming down from the city tower, and struck three or two times.
Then he rushed to the city wall. Cao Jun was shocked, how could the woman in front of him be so brave? Ma Yunlu stabbed her with a spear.
Zhang Ji shouted: "Stop her and don't let her get close to the battle flag!" As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Yunlu stabbed the rope hanging the battle flag with a spear. Cao Jun's battle flag twisted twice and reluctantly floated towards the city.
