Chapter 1303

Soon, Huangfu Chaobo came down to the gate of Dingtao city under the guard of the trapped camp. Wang Xiu and others had already met him at the gate: "I'm waiting for you to welcome the king!"

Huangfu Chaobo sat on the horse, waved to several people with a tired look on his face and said, "excuse me, ladies and gentlemen, let's talk about entering the city first!"

After that, he didn't stop at the gate of the city. He rode directly into the city. Seeing this, Wang Xiu quickly turned over and rode on the horses sent by the guards, closely following Huangfu Chaobo.

"Wang Aiqing, do you have any news from General Xu?"

"King Hui, General Xu set out in the morning. So far, no news has come back. I don't know what happened in Shanyang County." When Wang Xiu heard the speech, he quickly replied;

now he is at the gate of the city, and the population is mixed, and Huangfu Chaobo is not easy to ask about too many wars. He has no choice but to press his anxiety and say, "first go back to the prefect's house, and then tell GuZi the details of the war in Changyi city."

A few also understand God, way: "micro minister understand, king to this side please!"

Soon the party arrived at the palace of Dingtao city. As soon as Huangfu Chaobo sat down on the throne, he said to Wang xiudao, "let's talk about the specific situation and what happened in Changyi city."

Wang Xiu took a look at Huangfu Chaobo and said, "Your Majesty is tired from afar. How about not waiting to finish the evening meal first and report in detail?"

"It's not necessary," Huang Fu Chao Bo said with a wave

When Wang Xiu heard the speech, he no longer insisted on it. Instead, he explained what he knew to Huangfu Chaobo in detail, and some of the less detailed parts were supplemented by Mu Shun.

According to the envoys sent from Changyi, the war in Changyi city was very fierce from the beginning. After entering Shanyang, the Qi army directly left 10000 soldiers and 2000 cavalry to encircle Jinxiang City, but did not attack. Then, the rest of the army quickly bypassed Jinxiang and directly attacked Changyi. Meng Yi and others had little time to react.

Fortunately, from the beginning, the Tang army had made some preparations, so when the news came that there was a change in the Qi army, the Shanyang cities had already begun to close their gates and prepared for defense.

After arriving at Changyi City, the Qi army did not stay much. After arriving, the army began to launch a fierce attack on Changyi City, and it was still day and night. After a few days, the defenders in Changyi city lost a lot. The attack in the daytime and the attack at night made the soldiers in the city tired.

Just last night, after several rounds of harassment, the Qi army launched another attack on the city wall at dawn. When everyone focused on the Qi army outside the city, the elite of the 5000 Qi army who entered the city through the previous tunnel in a few days suddenly launched an attack inside the city, and joined the army outside the city to close the city gate Open.

Although Meng gang led his people to fight hard and try to recapture the gate that had been occupied by the Qi army, he was unable to return to the sky. After losing nearly a thousand soldiers, he was still unable to get close to the gate. Meng gang had no choice but to order his evacuation. At the same time, he ordered Li Ling, the commander of Shanyang City, to lead his troops to guard Pang Shanmin, Liu Yixun and other officials to evacuate from the west gate of Changyi. At the same time, he also sent a team of cavalry to warn Xu Rong of Dingtao city and ask for help.

After getting the news from Meng gang and discussing with Wang Xiu, Xu Rong quickly led the troops to the rescue. At the same time, he ordered Dingtao city to enter a state of emergency defense, and sent someone to Chen Liu to report the situation of Shanyang to Huangfu Chaobo.

After they finished, Huangfu Chaobo sighed a long time. Along the way, Huangfu Chaobo also guessed that the Qi army had captured the city gate by internal and external cooperation, but these things could not change the current situation. Shanyang is the seat of Yanzhou's governance, and Changyi city has been managed by Cao Cao for several years. He is more familiar with the city than the Tang army. It is almost impossible to completely eliminate it.

"Is there any news from General Xu? What's the situation of Shanyang's army now? Do you have any news? " Huang Fu Chao Bo had no choice but to change the topic and asked;

Wang Xiu looked at each other and shook his head: "General Xu has no news yet."

At this time, the dinner prepared by the prefect's house was also brought up. Huangfu Chaobo had to have dinner with Guo Jia and others first, and then consider the subsequent arrangements. It's evening now, and it's useless to send out the gold carving. So after dinner, Huangfu Chaobo has to accept the reality, and can only wait for the dawn to send troops to meet Xu Rong and Meng gang.

……

Just as Huangfu Chaobo was anxiously waiting for news from Xu Rong and Meng Gang, Huaxiong had already led his 7000 Xiliang cavalry and 5000 Hongnong County cavalry into Yecheng.

"General Hua Xiong has met general Pingbei!" The dusty Hua Xiong saw Zhao Yun coming to meet him and quickly turned over and dismounted to see him;

Zhao Yun hurriedly returned a salute, held Hua Xiong's hands and said: "general Hua has worked hard. All the soldiers have worked hard. Come on, let's go to the City first and let the soldiers have a good rest. However, the general may not have much time to rest. He needs to discuss with the general and the military division Only after discussing how to deal with the enemy can we have time. "Hua Xiong nodded his head and promised to go into the city with Zhao Yun and other generals. Shortly after they entered the city, a few miles south of the city, a group of Wei soldiers left Yecheng overnight and ran towards Weixian County in the East. That night, Yuan Shao in the camp in the east of Weixian county got the news that Hua Xiong led more than 10000 cavalry to Yecheng.

Yuan Shao, who got the news, immediately summoned the generals of the Wei army to discuss the matter urgently. After a night's discussion, Yuan Shao ordered Yan Lianghe, the second general of Wenchou, to launch a fierce attack on Liangqi and Weixian the next day. He had to capture the two cities before the reinforcements of Yecheng were sent. Once Liangqi and Weixian were captured, Chiqiu would become a city hanging alone, and sooner or later it would be the dish of the Wei army, And ye city periphery also did not have the strategic support, will face the Wei army's front.

After more than 10000 cavalry led by Huaxiong entered Yecheng, the number of cavalry under Zhao Yun reached more than 40000. In a few days after returning to Yecheng, Zhao Yun had reorganized the cavalry in the city. After baimayi was supplemented, the number of cavalry reached 5000, and Huben cavalry had also been charged to 10000. Many elite cavalry were selected from the rest of the troops to prepare for the war The rest were added to the Xiliang cavalry and Tujia.

Now that Huaxiong's army has arrived, Zhao Yun quickly replenished it. In this way, Zhao Yun's elite cavalry includes five thousand white horses, ten thousand Xiliang iron cavalry, ten thousand Tujia cavalry and ten thousand Huben cavalry. With the remaining six or seven thousand ordinary cavalry, the number of cavalry that can be dispatched is more than forty thousand, which is more than the number of Wei Zhao allied cavalry.

After the troops were reorganized, Zhao Yun also wanted to send troops as soon as possible, but after several days' long journey, the soldiers were very tired. As a last resort, Zhao Yun had to order the army to rest for another day.
