Wang Can rushed to Ziwu Valley with the army, while Huang Zhong, Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang led 3,000 soldiers as the vanguard and rushed to Ziwu Valley to investigate the news.
The army camped two miles away from Ziwu Valley and prepared to attack Ziwu Valley.
On that day, after Huang Zhong arranged the defense of the camp, he let the soldiers rest early. The whole night was peaceful, and no Xiliang soldiers came to harass and attack the camp.
Early the next morning, Huang Zhong led his troops to rise from the stronghold and march towards Ziwu Valley.
Outside the valley, three thousand soldiers lined up in formation.
The soldiers were holding Han swords and wearing armor, with serious expressions. They stared at the fortifications standing at the mouth of the valley with eager expressions. Among the soldiers, the older ones wanted to gain more military glory so that their wives, children and parents could live a good life;
The younger one wants to build a successful career and marry a beautiful and virtuous wife.
Military merit is the motivation for soldiers to fight bravely and skillfully.
"Bang the drum!"
Huang Zhong raised his head and roared, and the naked drummer raised his drumstick and beat the war drum hard.
"Boom! Boom!..."
In an instant, the majestic sound of war drums rang out in the military formation, penetrating through gold, through stone, and into the sky. The rumbling drums spread into the pass, making the soldiers in the valley become nervous, and Zhang Rong was already standing on the tower.
. He looked around and saw Huang Zhong, Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao standing outside on horseback. He was so angry that he wanted to kill the three of them immediately.
He hated it. If he had been bolder and led his troops to fight back then, the three people standing outside Ziwu Valley showing off their might would have been cold corpses. There would be no chance of them being arrogant in front of him.
Zhang Rong straightened his head and shouted loudly: "Young Huang Zhong, a defeated general, how can you have the guts to be so arrogant in front of me? Could it be that you are impatient with life and want to die?"
His voice was loud, but not as loud as the war drums.
The rumble of war drums penetrated into the sky, spreading inside and outside the Ziwu Valley.
In particular, Ziwu Valley is a valley with a length of more than 600 miles. It is deep and long. After the sound of drums passed in, it kept echoing. As soon as Zhang Rong's voice roared out, it was drowned by the overwhelming sound of war drums. Those who stood there
The soldiers on the tower felt pain in their eardrums and did not hear Zhang Rong's words clearly.
The drums beat loudly, causing Zhang Rong to roar several times in vain.
Zhang Rong's face was uncertain, with an angry expression on his face.
But Huang Zhong smiled, raised his big hand, and shouted: "Stop!"
Suddenly, all the drummers stopped. When the drums stopped, the whole land became quiet without any sound. For a moment, the soldiers felt that the silence was so beautiful. Huang Zhong held a nine-foot-long sword and rode his horse.
Walking forward, Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang also followed behind Huang Zhong, advancing slowly.
This tong drum should have made the Xiliang army nervous!
When Zhang Rong heard the drum sound disappear, he seized the opportunity and shouted: "Huang Zhong, are you three here to die?"
One sentence made the soldiers on the level laugh.
Huang Zhong looked as usual, not angry.
The nine-foot-long sword in his hand was thrust into the ground, and he looked at Zhang Rong with a look of thought in his eyes. He learned the name of the guard of Ziwu Valley from Wang Can, and also knew that Zhang Rong was a sibling of Zhang Ji.
Belonging to people who are loyal to Zhang Ji, this relationship makes it difficult for Zhang Rong to be incited to rebel. The only way is to anger Zhang Rong and let Zhang Rong take the initiative to fight, thereby defeating Zhang Rong.
Huang Zhong yelled: "Zhang Rong, I led three hundred soldiers and scared the shit out of you. It feels so good!"
He did not follow Zhang Rong's words, but asked Zhang Rong in return.
If Huang Zhong continued to follow Zhang Rong's words, he would definitely fall into Zhang Rong's trap. It would be better if Huang Zhong asked Zhang Rong directly. After the words came out, Zhang Rong was really angry. Zhang Rong had experienced the incident of being bluffed by Huang Zhong.
In his eyes, Zhang Rong became furious when he thought that he had the chance to annihilate Huang Zhong and others, but was frightened by Huang Zhong and retreated.
Zhang Rong pulled out the sword from his waist and shouted: "Huang Zhong, I swear to kill you!"
Huang Zhong raised the nine-foot-long sword, pointed it at Zhang Rong in the air, and shouted disdainfully: "How can a common man kill me?"
Hearing this, Zhang Rong was even more angry. Thinking about the scene of being teased by Huang Zhong, he could not suppress the anger in his heart. Zhang Rong snorted and shouted angrily: "Whoever dares to kill this lao will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins and will come in person."
Please go to the general’s house to ask him for merit.” General, refers to Zhang Ji, not Zhang Xiu.
Seeing that no one was going to fight, Zhang Rong sneered: "A dignified man from Xiliang is as timid as a mouse and dare not go to the battlefield?"
This sentence aroused the competitive spirit of the Xiliang generals.
These soldiers from Xiliang like to eat meat in large quantities, drink from large bowls, and advocate force. Because they have a lot of contact with foreign people, they also have an unruly and arrogant temper. After hearing Zhang Rong's words, they immediately fell into Zhang Rong's provocation and stood up one after another.
Asking for a fight. When Zuo Xu and Ma Zhi saw this, they both shook their heads slightly and sighed for the generals who stood up.
The two men are quite deep in the city, so of course they will not be easily provoked like other generals.
But as he was also a general of the Xiliang Army, he couldn't help but curse in his heart when he saw the generals standing up to ask for battle one by one.
Zhao Zhi also stood behind Zhang Rong. In his opinion, he simply ignored Huang Zhong and stationed in Ziwu Valley. However, Zhang Rong was the commander-in-chief, and he must obey Zhang Rong's orders. However, Zhao Zhi still stood up, clasped his fists and said:
"General, Ziwu Valley is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and the valley is protected by natural dangers. All we have to do is garrison. Not going to war is a great achievement!"
Zhang Rong glared angrily and shouted: "Zhao Zhi, are you a Xiliang man? You are so timid. All of our Xiliang men are mighty men. How can you be a coward when you are a majestic man? Huang Zhong even came to the door.
We don't fight back with fists, but we hide in the valley and can't get out. If you are timid, don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute."
When Zhang Rong spoke, the other generals also looked at Zhao Zhi with disdain.
No guts!
Chicken-hearted!
This is the evaluation of Zhao Zhi by the Xiliang generals. These generals may not have received a good education, are not well-literate, and do not understand military strategies. They are single-minded and do not like beating around the bush, but they are definitely brave.
They rely solely on force to solve problems. As long as they have a knife in hand, they can charge bravely.
Zhang Rong looked at the generals who stood up and asked: "Who dares to fight?"
Several generals clasped their fists and said: "General, the last general invites you to fight!"
Zhang Rong nodded with satisfaction and said: "You all go down and prepare. If one person is defeated by Huang Zhong, all of them will rush forward and be sure to kill Huang Zhong."
This sentence immediately made several generals unhappy.
Fighting on the battlefield is a one-on-one affair. How can you be so shameless?
The generals despised Zhang Rong's behavior in their hearts, but did not say it out loud. They went down from the tower and prepared to fight. Although there were eight generals, these people were definitely prepared to fight one on one, and would not rush forward in a swarm to fight Huang Zhong.
.Zhang Rong successfully aroused the Xiliang army's desire to win, but he made the generals despise him because of what he just said.
"Crunch!"
The gate opened and the eight generals galloped out.
Huang Zhong saw eight generals rushing out, stretched out his hand to stop Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang who were about to take action, and said: "I will take action, and you will deal with Zhang Rong later."
After finishing speaking, Huang Zhong yelled: "Zhang Rong, let them all come up, a group of ants are vulnerable!"
Huang Zhong's words were quite arrogant, but they played right into Zhang Rong's hands.
However, after hearing this, the generals who rushed out looked indignant. One of the generals shouted: "Huang Zhong, don't be so arrogant, your grandpa will chop off your dog's head!" This was a Xiliang military academy lieutenant who was born
He has a lion's nose and a wide mouth, a rough face, and a full beard. He stares at Huang Zhong with a strong fighting spirit.
