Outside Luocheng, Zhao Yun was wearing silver-white armor, with a silver gentian spear in his hand, and a white dragon colt on his hip. He was extremely handsome and heroic.
Next to Zhao Yun, a soldier stood straight and held a large flag in both hands. This large flag was embroidered with a war horse and a spear, which was the unique flag of the Po Army Camp. Behind Zhao Yun, the Eight Hundred Po Army Camp faced the wind
Standing still like Mount Tai. Behind the broken military camp, there are three thousand soldiers holding Han swords and wearing armor. It can be said that the military appearance is in its peak.
"kill!"
Zhao Yun rode on the horse, raised the silver gentian gun in his hand, and roared.
"kill!"
"kill!"
In an instant, more than 3,000 soldiers behind Zhao Yun responded with a roar, and the sound that sounded at the same time was like a thunder in the ground, the sound shook the heaven and the earth, and soared into the sky.
The loud sound kept ringing, one wave after another, and it kept spreading towards the city.
On the city tower, when the county magistrate responsible for defending Luocheng saw this, his face changed drastically. He was so frightened that he took three steps back and said in a voiceless voice: "What should we do? What should we do? Zhao Yun led the army to easily capture Zitong County, which was extremely powerful. Now Zhao Yun attacks
Luocheng, the city of Luocheng is not as strong as Zitong, the soldiers are not as sophisticated as Zitong County, and the food and grass are not as abundant as Zitong County. If we fight against Zhao Yun, wouldn't we be destroying ourselves with an egg against a stone?"
Behind the county magistrate, the civil and military officials listened, each thinking and showing different expressions.
Zhao Yun tilted his head slightly and asked the small colonel beside him: "Who is the guard in the city?"
The principal raised his hand and said: "Report to the general, the scout reported that the name of the Luocheng garrison is Zhao Yuan. This person is a relative of Zhao Wei. With Zhao Wei's relationship, he served as the county magistrate of Luocheng. However, this guy is not
He is very capable and manages Luocheng in an orderly manner, but he has one flaw. He is very afraid of death. Whether he is entering or leaving the county or patrolling the city, he has to lead a group of soldiers to protect his safety. He is afraid of being attacked.
Assassination."
After hearing this, Zhao Yun smiled and said, "Oh, this person is quite interesting."
The captain also nodded and smiled.
The Art of War says: Know yourself and the enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger. When Zhao Yun led his troops to Luocheng, he had already sent out scouts on the way to inquire about the news about Luocheng, the geographical location of Luocheng, and the situation of officials and soldiers.
It must be clear. Only by understanding all the information about Luocheng can Zhao Yun make the most appropriate plan to deal with the enemy.
When attacking Luocheng, there is no room for failure.
Zhao Yun raised his head to look at Zhao Yuan and shouted loudly: "County Magistrate Zhao, I am coming with a large army. Wherever I go, I can see the wind and no one can stop me. It is said that those who know the current affairs are heroes. Magistrate Zhao immediately opens the door and surrenders. I will surrender."
The general will protect you and suggest that the lord allow you to stay in Luocheng and serve as county magistrate; if you persist in resisting, Magistrate Zitong will be the precedent for Magistrate Zhao."
At this point, Zhao Yun roared: "I will give you a quarter of an hour to think about it. After a quarter of an hour, if you still resist, I will send troops to attack Luocheng."
On the city tower, Zhao Yuan looked pale and anxious, and asked: "Everyone, Zhao Yun is coming very hard, what can I do?"
When the civil and military officials heard this, most of them had earth-colored faces and were at a loss of whether to advance or retreat.
Zhao Yun's reputation is very famous, especially after he conquered Zitong County, Zhao Yuan, the magistrate of Luocheng County, not far from Zitong, also knew Zhao Yun's name. After careful investigation, Zhao Yun's deeds continued to spread to Zhao Yuan's ears, and after getting the news about Zhao Yun
, Zhao Yuan was even more afraid of Zhao Yun. Now that he was in the situation and saw Zhao Yun leading his troops outside, Zhao Yuan was even more frightened.
A quarter of an hour is not long or short.
However, for the soldiers on the tower, it was definitely too short and there was no extra time to think about it.
Zhao Yuan coughed twice, looked around at the people around him, and said: "Everyone, Zhao Yun is stationed outside and it is difficult to resist. Do you have any methods to resist Zhao Yun? The situation in Luocheng County is critical now. Please tell me what to do.
"
"General, why don't you surrender to Kaicheng and welcome Wang Can into the city?" The speaker was the chief secretary of the county and was a close confidant of Zhao Yuan.
This man was of medium build, slightly thin, with three short strands of beard under his chin and two mustaches on his lips, giving him the impression of a dog-headed military advisor. His dark eyes rolled around, and when he looked at Zhao Yun, his eyes showed surprise.
He looked frightened. Now after hearing what Zhao Yuan said, he quickly suggested that Zhao Yuan open the city gate and welcome Zhao Yun into the city.
"Humph, you cowardly people just know how to surrender."
Behind Zhao Yuan, a military general snorted and said angrily.
The chief of Luocheng City laughed and said: "Yang Zhi, if you have the courage, you can lead your troops out of the city to fight Zhao Yun. If you can defeat Zhao Yun, the threat to Luocheng City will be gone immediately. You just fart like this and don't act.
Those who act coquettishly on the tower are so despising!"
Yang Zhi is the magistrate of Luocheng County and is in charge of military affairs.
"Just go! It's hard to take a certain family and you are afraid of Zhao Yun." Yang Zhi snorted, snorted coldly, pulled out the sword from his waist, turned around and prepared to leave.
"Captain, please don't be impulsive!"
Beside Yang Zhi, his bodyguard's face changed greatly when he saw Yang Zhi leaving, and he looked at the Luocheng County Registrar with resentment.
Yang Zhi had a bad temper. He was provoked by the provoking skills of the Chief of Luocheng and immediately prepared to fight Zhao Yun. Life or death must have been uncertain. The guard quickly reached out to grab Yang Zhi, but Yang Zhi threw him away and said: "Wait, wait.
Wait for my good news on the city tower, and wait for me to kill Zhao Yun, then hold a banquet to celebrate."
After finishing speaking, Yang Zhi went down to the tower.
After a moment, the city gate opened wide, and Yang Zhi galloped out, waving his sword and rushing towards Zhao Yun.
When the war horse rushed to a distance of ten feet away from Zhao Yun, Yang Zhi raised the sword in his hand and struck Zhao Yun with a sound of wind. Seeing the sword coming, Zhao Yun's expression remained unchanged, without any change, and the gentian shining silver spear in his hand
It suddenly poked out, like a poisonous snake spitting out a message, or like a flying eagle pouncing on food. The tip of the spear flashed, and when Yang Zhi's sword had just struck, Zhao Yun dodged the knife on one side of his body, and at the same time, the spear in his hand pierced Yang Zhi's chest.
The armor was lifted up, and Yang Zhi was lifted up and flew into the sky.
“Don’t overestimate your capabilities!”
Zhao Yun rode his horse and stood on the spot, with the silver gentian spear in his hand standing on the ground, the tip of the spear pointing upward.
Yang Zhi fell quickly from the air. When he saw the tip of the gun standing on the ground with a cold light shining on it, he was frightened out of his wits.
Yang Zhi shook his hands, trying to change the direction, but he fell extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, his body fell on the tip of the spear, and was pierced by the tip of the spear. This scene, in Zhao Yuan's eyes, made him even more frightened, and he did not dare
When fighting Zhao Yun, he waved his hand and said quickly: "Zhao Yun is too powerful, I can't stop him, I can't stop him!"
Zhao Yun swung his spear, threw Yang Zhi to the ground, and shouted: "Zhao Yuan, we will be here in a quarter of an hour. Whether it is battle or surrender, what are you going to do?"
"Open the city gate, open the city gate!"
Zhao Yuan was frightened and immediately ordered his soldiers to open the city gate and surrender.
When Zhao Yun heard this, a smile appeared on his face. He stationed his troops outside Luocheng and would not waste any effort to occupy Luocheng. This way he could seize the time faster and pretend to attack Chengdu.
…
At Mianzhu Pass, Yan Yan stationed troops outside.
Before Yan Yan surrendered, he was the governor of Bajun. He was prestigious and capable, and was the backbone of the army. All the generals and soldiers in Yizhou knew Yan Yan's ability.
At this time, Yan Yan was stationing troops outside, and the general guarding Mianzhu Pass was in a dilemma. On the one hand, he wanted to fulfill his duties for Liu Yanke and guard Mianzhu Pass, but on the other hand, he was afraid of Yan Yan's ability and felt that he could not resist Yan Yan.
The army he led.
The guard on the tower was thinking about things and was in a dilemma.
Next to the guard, a confidant said: "General, Liu Yan has been seriously ill for a long time and there is no way to save him. In addition, the death of the third son Liu Mao leaves Yizhou without a master and it is difficult to support him! On the other hand, Wang Can,
The momentum is high and the attack is fierce. If the general surrenders to Wang Can, he will definitely get an official position. However, if the general fights Yan Yan, he will probably end up dead after being defeated. General, please think twice!"
When the general heard this, he sighed and said, "In that case, we can only open the city gate and surrender!"
The general's confidant looked firm and said: "Yes, we can only surrender."
The guard sighed and ordered: "Open the city gate and welcome Yan Yan's army into the city."
Yan Yan led his troops into Mianzhu Pass and completed Wang Can's second wave of offensive.
Since Yan Yan was originally a general from Yizhou, coupled with Yan Yan's outstanding abilities, he quickly became involved with the soldiers at Mianzhu Pass and quickly established his prestige. Moreover, Yan Yan had already begun to pretend to attack Chengdu and let people know about it.
The news said that he would lead an army to attack Chengdu.
…
In Fucheng County, the shouts of killing outside the city were loud.
The generals stationed in Fucheng did not defend the city, but chose to fight to the death.
The two armies were fighting, and the two gods of death, Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang, gathered together.
The two men were on the left and the right, with a Han sword on the left and a mace on the right. Wherever they passed, corpses flew everywhere and people fell on their backs. The Hanzhong soldiers under the two men all used Han swords to gain an advantage, and they were stationed in Fucheng.
The soldiers of Fucheng were fighting, and the soldiers of Fucheng were not comparable at all and could not resist the Hanzhong soldiers.
The flag was flying, Hanzhong's troops were overwhelming, and the soldiers led by the Fucheng garrison were retreating steadily, making it difficult to resist.
Pei Yuanshao kept an eye on the Fucheng garrison. When he saw an opening, he galloped forward and killed the Fucheng garrison.
Fucheng was easily captured without much effort.
After Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang occupied Fucheng, they immediately eliminated all those who were loyal to Liu Yan and prepared to resist to the death. The rest were some helpless people, or those who had long been willing to surrender. After Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang resolved the internal troubles
, immediately began planning a feint attack on Chengdu and completed the mission.
The three major cities on the northern defense line of Chengdu became Wang Can's possession in an instant.
The reason is that there is no one in Yizhou to take command, which makes the war on the front line chaotic. They all do things according to their own preferences and wishes. For example, the defender of Fucheng did not defend the city, but chose to take the initiative and underestimated the enemy.
He made such a mistake that he was beheaded by Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang, and easily captured Fucheng.
If the generals of Luocheng, Mianzhuguan and Fucheng all choose to garrison the city, they will definitely be able to delay it for half a month.
Half a month was enough for Zhao Wei to stabilize Chengdu and adjust the situation in Yizhou. However, before Zhao Wei could catch his breath, three cities were captured by Wang Can at once.
…
After Liu Yan died, the atmosphere in the governor's office was gloomy, and everyone wore sackcloth and mourned.
Liu Zhang did not come back, Yizhou had no backbone, and all officials, big and small, became impetuous.
The loss of the three cities of Luocheng, Mianzhuguan and Fucheng has made Chengdu even more precarious. Today's Yizhou is like a small boat in the roaring waves, which may be blown away by the waves at any time.
State Pastoral Mansion, hall.
Zhao Wei stood in the center of the hall, wearing mourning clothes and a white ribbon on his head, looking tired.
After Liu Yan passed away, everything fell on him and he had a heavy task.
Zhao Wei holds the power of the military regime, not only to appease the restless minds of Chengdu officials, but also to take charge of the overall situation and send people to investigate the latest news emerging ahead.
It had only been a few days, but Zhao Wei's temples were already turning gray, showing the color of weather.
