Chapter 10 Rolling Out the Flag

In the early morning, Gongsun Xun opened his eyes, only to find that he was actually sleeping in Qin Luofu's arms... He hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to continue lying down.

However, at this moment, Qin Luofu, who was sitting on the couch and hugging her husband, actually opened his eyes, and then asked jokingly: "Is your husband awake? Did you sleep well all night?"

"Hey..." Gongsun Xun responded helplessly.

As the saying goes, the gentle countryside is the Tomb of Heroes. Gongsun Xun really didn't want to get up, but he couldn't get rid of his shame, so he hesitated for a moment and seemed to be struggling to get up.

"If Mr. Lang is still a little tired, you might as well lie down for a while." Qin Luofu stroked the other person's forehead with his hand and laughed softly. "Anyway, I have been lying down all night, and Luofu doesn't care about this moment."

Gongsun Xun closed his eyes and felt as if he was enjoying the meal.

It should be noted that he had one wife and three concubines, not to mention Zhao Yun, but the other three concubines also have distinct characteristics...such as Bian Yu, who has always been gentle and considerate; such as Feng Zhi, who has always been careful to flatter; such as Luo Fu, who always has a youthful attitude

.

Luo Fu's behavior last night and today was rarely as gentle as Bian Yu's. It was because the two of them talked about the past of Zhao State last night. Luo Fu got the advice of his husband and felt that there should be no problems at home. He also talked about his young daughter in Liaodong.

An Xin, I feel relieved now, it is rare to be in harmony with each other.

Of course, from Gongsun Xun's point of view, after he came to Zhuojun, he was worried about the continuous war, so he had been working hard. However, yesterday's great victory in accidentally capturing a fighter plane can basically be regarded as laying the foundation for the victory.

Victory. After this battle, the words of ten days and the words of seven or eight days are no longer just inspiring words.

That's why he was so indulgent.

Waking up to hold the power of a county and lying on the knees of a beautiful woman, this sleep after spring sleep is particularly intoxicating.

……………………

"Husband! Husband..."

When Gongsun Xun opened his eyes again, he found that his wife Zhao Yun had suddenly appeared in front of the bed in Luo Fu's room, which also made him frightened for a moment, just like in a dream.

"Husband!" Zhao Yun raised her voice helplessly. "It's not that I don't want you to sleep... Lu Ziheng, Lou Zibo, and Wang Shuzhi are all waiting for you in front of the door... It seems that the Yellow Turban Army is about to attack the city. Wen

Brother Chao is leading the generals to deal with it temporarily at the top of the city!"

Gongsun Xun was startled when he heard this, then turned over and hugged Luo Fu's waist, and actually wanted to continue sleeping!

This move immediately made Qin Luofu, who had a weird look on his face, laugh out loud.

Zhao Yun, who was standing in front of the couch, was speechless. After a while, she clenched her fists and shouted: "I didn't lie to you! You weren't dreaming either!"

Gongsun Xun didn't look back, but replied in a muffled voice in the arms of his beloved concubine: "I know it's not a dream. Please send a message for me, asking Ayue to be the governor of the front line, Zibo to be the military counselor, Ziheng to stay in the county, and Shuzhi to be in charge.

In terms of military affairs and logistics, Yi Gong Ling Yi will never move... The rest of the generals will be deployed by the first four of them. If there is a conflict, Zi Heng will take charge!"

Zhao Yun became more and more speechless, but still tried her best to remind: "Husband, there is a war outside... Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?!"

"Don't be afraid!" Gongsun still didn't want to look back, but his voice finally became clearer. "And my wife also wants to tell the generals that this morning the spring is beautiful, the wind is gentle, and the sun is rising. I want to take off my clothes in the room and stand by the window.

I lie down high and read the Spring and Autumn Annals, thinking about the virtuousness of Duke Zhou. Unless reinforcements from the enemy suddenly arrive, please do not disturb me before noon!"

Only then did Zhao Yun wake up, but when she saw that the other party was still holding Qin Luofu's waist without moving, she felt depressed for a moment: "Then I will go and pass the order for you... You continue to read "Spring and Autumn", thinking

Duke Zhou!"

Luo Fu was hugged around the waist and could only hold back his laughter as he bowed his head slightly on the couch to see each other off. Zhao Yun waved helplessly and left quickly.

In fact, just as Gongsun Xun thought, no matter what kind of crazy the Yellow Turban Army outside the city is, if no reinforcements suddenly arrive, there is no need to worry... Leave it to Lu Fan and the others, and lie down high in the room.

, isn’t it beautiful?!

Just like this, while thinking wildly and feeling the caress of Luo Fu's hands on his back, Gongsun Xun was probably really exhausted for days and actually fell asleep again.

The warriors are half dead in front of the army, but the beauties are still in their arms in the tent.

Gongsun Xun continued his gentle village here. The Zhuoxian city wall outside, especially the southeastern two walls facing the Yellow Turban Army Camp, quickly turned into a Shura field.

Of course, the vast majority of those who died were the Yellow Turban Army... This morning, before the Han army, which had won yesterday's victory, could reorganize and continue to sweep out of the city, a large number of Yellow Turban soldiers carried the most common and simple wooden blocks and long ladders to carry out the campaign.

They attacked the city. However, the morale of these Yellow Turban soldiers was low and their combat power was ridiculous. The wooden blocks and long ladders were only temporarily assembled and could not be used. Therefore, facing the local battlefield, they were not at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, and their morale was still high.

, the well-prepared Han army was almost defeated at the first touch.

When Gongsun Yue and Lou Gui obtained the formal command authority, they ordered Guan, Zhang, Wei and other cavalry generals to lead a hundred cavalry out of the city to sweep along the base of the city wall. The Yellow Turban Army was bleeding like a river under the city. It was so miserable for a while.

However, after the cavalry withdrew, after noon, the Yellow Turban Army, which had barely repaired a few things, attacked again. This time, they probably spent time and energy in the rear camp to sort out and make equipment, so the bumping wood and ladders seemed much stronger...

But that's all, it still has no achievements under the fortified city.

When the cavalry went out to sweep again, the Yellow Turban Army fled in panic without waiting for the gong to sound.

"What do those people think?" Lou Zibo looked at the densely packed yellow scarf soldiers who fled in panic under the city, and it became increasingly difficult to understand. "Shouldn't we dig deep into the fortress at this time and be careful to defend it to death? Why attack the city?!"

The generals on the side, from Gongsun Yue down, were all speechless.

"What can we do?" Gongsun Xun, refreshed and energetic, walked up to the city head with his sword in hand, followed by Wang Xiu, who was in charge of logistics. "Either the leader of the rebel army is too stupid, or he can't control the people in the camp.

situation, or both..."

The generals quickly greeted each other.

"No need to be polite." Gongsun Xun looked down from a high position. He first looked at the corpses of the Yellow Turban Army under the city wall and in front of the city wall, and then stared at the opponent's camp, squinting slightly. "Now that it has reached this point?"

"What do you mean by being a prince?" Liu Bei asked boldly. "To what extent has it reached?"

"Without him," Gongsun Xun said with a frown as he faced the bloody spring wind. "I thought that after yesterday's battle, all the Yellow Turban cavalrymen were gone, and we could let go of our hands and feet to invade, so that within seven or eight days we would be able to

You can mobilize the masses to fight back...but today, when I look at it, I saw so many casualties, so why do you feel that it is already on the verge of collapse?"

The generals were thoughtful for a moment.

"Uncle." Gongsun Xun turned around and asked, "How is the recruitment going in the city?"

"When the Yellow Turbans first came, their army was so huge that the big families no longer dared to hide their secrets. Later, our army won many victories, and the good sons of good families also let go of their worries... Therefore, it was all smooth sailing, and now there are young and strong people in the city.

Barely over 10,000." Wang Xiu still dealt with it calmly.

"Possibly going to war?" Gongsun Xun continued to repeat the conversation from five days ago.

"It's still what I said before." Wang Xiu said frankly. "The general wants to go to war, so there is nothing else to do, but the armaments are not enough to supply the newly recruited troops. Now the city only uses spears instead of forging swords.

They just prepared more than 4,000 spears and fired the arrows made by the people in the city. They only had more than 5,000 barrels, and they were all so unbearable..."

"It's enough for use." Gongsun Xun pointed at the Yellow Turban military camp outside the city and interrupted his beloved with a smile. "As long as one charge and captures the opponent's camp, wouldn't the ordnance be sufficient? Just like after the battle yesterday, it was

It's like seven to eight hundred more horses... If we don't have ordnance, the Yellow Turban thieves will naturally give it to us."

"The Lord is right." Someone couldn't help but interjected. "I have been in the Yellow Turban camp a few days ago, and it seems that they are well prepared... If I capture the opponent's camp, I am afraid that not only ordnance, but also money and food will be harvested.

.”

Wang Xiu immediately kept silent... This was not the scope of his responsibilities. He just reported his work truthfully.

"Isn't it a little hasty?" Lou Zibo asked with all his strength. "Your Majesty, how about consuming the rebel army for two more days tomorrow and the next day? By the way, let Shuzhi make more preparations."

"No need." Gongsun Xun stared at the direction outside the city and narrowed his eyes slightly.

When Lou Gui and others followed each other's gaze, their expressions all changed... It turned out that the Yellow Turban Army was planning to attack the city for the third time before sunset.

are you crazy?!

"I'm not crazy!" In the evening, in the Yellow Turban Army's military tent, Deputy Commander Zhang, who had gray hair and bloodshot eyes, was dressed all over his body. With his eyes wide open, he stood in the middle of the military tent and said sincerely to his superior, Cheng Yuanzhi.

"Cheng Shuai, think about it, why did General Di Gong ask you to come here? Is it to prevent the governor of Zhuo County from supporting Fan Yang? Now that we have no cavalry, if we continue to let the other side harass and kill us like we did in the past few days, I'm afraid

In five or six days, the army will collapse without a fight! At this time, there is no other way except to use offense as defense! So according to me, we will go to war tomorrow!"

Cheng Yuanzhi, with a strip of yellow satin on his forehead, was sitting in the imperial chair at the top, with a gloomy expression that gave no trace of happiness or anger.

"Cheng Shuai!" Deputy Commander Zhang still wanted to persuade. "Listen to this old man..."

"Deputy Commander Zhang, don't deceive yourself!" At this moment, a young commander on the side suddenly couldn't bear it anymore and jumped out of his seat. "You say it sounds so nice, but you're not actually trying to avenge your only son?

!It’s all selfish…”

"So what if I have selfish motives?" Deputy Commander Zhang was not afraid at all. His gray hair emerged from the iron helmet tied with a yellow scarf, and he did it without any wind. "Which of you has no selfish motives? What kind of rebellion can you do without selfish motives?! Besides, I

Although I have selfish motives, I have never delayed important matters because of it. If I don’t use offense as defense, should I just sit back and wait for death?!"

"Do you still have the nerve to say that you didn't delay the important matter?" Another handsome man in slightly simpler clothes stood up angrily. "For your selfish reasons, nearly two thousand people were killed or injured today..."

"How can a few gangsters be counted?" Deputy Commander Zhang still spoke plausibly. "If you can gather 30,000 people in a few days, you can gather another 30,000 people in the future! If you can rely on these things to kill two thousand people a day, you can

If we can delay it until Fanyang City falls and General Digong comes to help, then this important event will not be delayed!"

"Deputy Commander Zhang is arrogant!" Another person stood up, but it was to Cheng Yuanzhi. "Cheng Shuai, think about it, even if the life of the gangster leader is worthless, it is also extremely important at this time, because we are wasting our time now.

Under the city, morale is low, and the only thing to rely on is the strength of the army. And if Deputy Commander Zhang does what he wants, there are no thousand cavalry yesterday, there are no two thousand infantry today, and if there are no more two thousand infantry tomorrow, then what will happen?

How can we stop the Han army from coming out in a few days? It doesn’t matter if we are defeated here, on the seventh or eighth day we ask the prefect of Zhuo County to lead troops to support Fan Yang... but that would be a big sin!"

Vice Admiral Zhang was about to say more when he saw Cheng Yuanzhi, who had not said a word, suddenly stood up and patted the handle of his chair: "That's right! It's fine if our side is defeated, but we must not miss General Digong's attack.

Big deal! Deputy Marshal Zhang, you don’t need to say more. From tomorrow onwards, you can rest assured in the camp while the rest of the gang carefully arranges the camp and protects it carefully... until General Digong comes to help, everything will be fine!"

No one in the camp could question Cheng Yuanzhi's status and decision-making, especially after Deng Mao's death... Therefore, even Deputy Commander Zhang just bowed his hand expressionlessly and said nothing more.

In this way, in the evening of that day, Cheng Yuanzhi first gave special instructions on night watch and protection... As a wealthy family with a manor, he needed to be extra careful about night attacks at night. There was no need for anyone to teach him. Even the commanders of the Yellow Turban Army did not think this was a problem.

It is not a military quality, but an instinctive move... Then, the physically and mentally exhausted Cheng Qushuai lay down in his military tent full of thoughts.

The beginning of March, which will probably be regarded as April when changing to the Gregorian calendar in the future. In the true spring of March, the weather is neither cold nor hot, and you can sleep with your clothes on and sleep soundly.

However, as the commander-in-chief of an army, Cheng Yuanzhi could not sleep no matter what.

This man from Guangyang, who was dull in talent but was highly regarded by Zhang Jiao because of his extra diligence, began to recall all the incidents after arriving in Zhuojun... In the past few days, he was harassed by a small group of cavalry by the Han army, and when Deng Mao requested to gather together

However, the cavalry was wiped out with a single blow far away from the main camp. Then last night, he listened to Deputy Commander Zhang's lies and then launched a chaotic siege today. Of course, there was also the dispute just now... All kinds of things are happening to this Yellow Turban.

Jun Qushuai's mind was spinning over and over again.

Gradually, Cheng Yuanzhi realized... In fact, he should have gathered the cavalry from the beginning so that he could deal with the small group of Han cavalry, but he should not have allowed the cavalry to leave the camp and lose support... If he had known this,

There will no longer be such a situation.

You should remember this in the future!

Thinking of this, Marshal Cheng actually stood up and ordered the soldiers to light the lamp again. Then he took out a white book specially used for copying books under the lamp. He turned over and took out a large goose feather, and asked him to grind the ink and add water, and then dipped the ink into it.

He wrote down this experience in this small notebook. He even recited it twice. Only then did he finally feel at ease and fall asleep again...

Before going to bed, the Yellow Turban Army Canal Commander had made up his mind not to do those unnecessary things in the future, and to guard the camp with peace of mind, waiting for the local general to come for reinforcements... Tomorrow, he might dig a deep trench in the military camp.

To protect yourself beforehand...why did you forget to dig a trench?

After being exhausted for many days, Marshal Cheng had a good night's sleep, so there was no need to say anything.

However, in the early morning of the next day, when it was not yet dark, when he was woken up by a young commander who broke into the camp, he was once again disturbed by a piece of bad news:

"Deputy Commander Zhang led his men to attack the city?!"

"Reply to Commander Cheng!" This young commander, who was considered a close confidant of Cheng Yuanzhi and was also from Taiping Dao, immediately knelt down to plead guilty. "Not only Deputy Commander Zhang's headquarters, but also Deputy Commander Deng's old team, and many from Anxiang

Everyone who came from the county was secretly persuaded by him after he returned last night, and then early this morning they all drove their subordinates to attack the city, saying that they would take advantage of the clear sky and the unprepared Han army to kill the Han army by surprise...

When I can't stop you, I have to come and look for Cheng Shuai!"

Cheng Yuanzhi hurriedly left the camp, then climbed up to take a look, but it was already too late... He saw the spring sun looming, and in the distance there were many black shadows shaking under the city wall on the east side of Zhuo County, as if they were that of Deputy Commander Zhang.

A subordinate of the Yellow Turban Army who was born in Anci County.

At this time, there is no point in calling people back. It is better to hope that the Han army will be unprepared in the early morning and that Deputy Commander Zhang and others can successfully board the city here!

Of course, Marshal Cheng's expectations soon came to naught... because before he could see his troops approaching the city wall, the east gate of Zhuoxian County had already been opened on its own initiative, and then the fully equipped and densely packed Han troops came out of the city gate.

Come out in droves!

The two sides quickly encountered each other in the open space in front of the city gate, and then directly engaged in battle!

"Has this been discovered by the Han army?" Cheng Yuanzhi, who was looking up from the height, was a little confused amidst the not very intense shouts of killing in the distance.

"Do you want to send someone to help?" The handsome man on the side couldn't help but remind him.

"This is natural." Marshal Cheng made a decisive decision. "Since the Han army has found out, it is of no use. Let people bring An Ci and his gang in... You go there in person, pass on my order, and bring the entire front camp with you."

When people are there to provide support, they must not do what they did the day before yesterday, where the entire army was wiped out outside the camp!"

Xiaoshuai quickly followed the order and left.

However, after his apprentice left, Marshal Cheng continued to watch from a distance on the high platform, but his brows became more and more serious... It turned out that more and more Han troops were pouring out of the city gate in the distance, and even behind the city walls on both sides.

Many ranks of Han troops came out.

Gradually, Deputy Commander Zhang's "surprise attack" subordinates began to be unable to hold up under the attack from three sides, and there were faint signs of retreat. Fortunately, at this time, the gate of the Yellow Turban Army's front camp had been opened, and the response team also rushed out in time.

It makes people breathe a sigh of relief...At the critical moment, we have to look at these people from Taiping Road!

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

As a white horse flag rolled out from the city gate, the Han troops in front of the city gate suddenly cheered in unison, and then they went all out to crush the enemy in front of them. And then, the Han troops continued to pursue and kill, and actually pushed the opponent

The defeated troops moved forward and rolled back toward the Yellow Turban Army's camp!

Mrs. Qin was standing by and asked: 'What are the advantages and disadvantages of the city?' The answer was: 'Everyone has
