Chapter 436

"Who is leading the enemy army? How many people are there, and what are the casualties of our army?" Ji Ling finally calmed down after being furious. A few days ago, he was stabbed twice by Guan Yu. It seems to be cracked again.

Chen Lan looked a little embarrassed, and thought: If Yu Jin and Zhang Jai come here, it's fine if they lose, they are all famous generals under Liu Ye's command. But that Xu Huang has never heard of it, and the number of enemy troops is too small, so it is shameless

"The enemy army has a total of five thousand people! All of them are tall and big, and they are the Xiliang iron cavalry that Liu Ye ruled the world!" Chen Lan exaggerated: "The leader of the army is named Xu Huang, holding a big axe, With unstoppable courage, even though I resisted desperately, I couldn't resist the enemy after dozens of battles, so I had to run away."

Ji Ling frowned: "Xu Huang?" Then he looked at Yan Xiang, who shook his head slightly.

"General Chen, you just said that the enemy army has five thousand cavalry?"

Chen Lan nodded and said seriously, "I'm sure."

"General Ji, this guy Chen Lan lied about the military situation, please pull him down and behead him." Yan Xiang said lightly, but Chen Lan was so frightened that he was out of his wits, shaking like chaff.

Ji Ling was taken aback. Although Chen Lan was defeated, there was no point in killing people. But that's okay, he's been in a bad mood recently. Anyway, this guy has lost food and grass, so it doesn't matter if he kills him.

"Come on!" Ji Ling shouted loudly to the outside, pointing at Chen Lan: "Drag this guy down and behead him, sacrificial flag!"

Two tall and powerful warriors walked in from the door, with fierce faces, and their four hands stretched out towards Chen Lan as if they were catching chickens. Chen Lan panicked and shouted: "General Ji, Yan Zong, why did you kill me? I am willing to take the blame and do meritorious service."

"Wait!" Hearing Yan Xiang's voice, the two guards stopped. Yan Xiang asked: "Liu Ye has been fighting for years, and the world knows that food and grass are not enough, but you say that Liu Ye dispatched a total of five thousand cavalry, how can it be true?"

Chen Lan hurriedly shouted: "Yan Zongzong spare my life, I'm telling the truth."

"Hmph, let's go!"

Yan Xiang waved his hand, and the two guards put Chen Lan down and walked out.

Chen Lan breathed a sigh of relief, and said truthfully: "Yan Zong, I did lie about the military situation, and there are probably two or three thousand cavalry under Xu Huang's command."

Yan Xiang said to Ji Ling: "If there are two thousand cavalry, Liu Ye's food and grass are enough to support it."

Ji Ling frowned and said, "A mere two thousand cavalry is nothing. We have an army of 30,000. Under siege, ten times as many people are enough to destroy them. It's just that the food and grass is a problem."

"That's all!" Ji Ling said seriously: "Tomorrow, a certain person will personally oversee the attack on the city, and capture Yingyang City within three days."

"By the way, Yan is engaged." Ji Ling turned around and said, "Please write a letter to the lord, asking him to send Liang Gang or Qiao Rui to lead a heavy army to escort the grain and grass."

"No, General!" Xun Zheng got up to stop him and said, "General, your injury is still not healed, it's better to recuperate in the camp."

Ji Ling shook his head: "No, the 30,000 troops surrounding Yingyang City consume countless food and grass, how can people eat horse chews?"

"I have made up my mind, and I will personally oversee the attack on the city from tomorrow!"

the second day.

"Archers, suppress the enemy army at the top of the city!"

"What are the pawns doing? Why don't you rush to take advantage of the fact that the enemy doesn't dare to show their faces and let the general press you down?"

Under Ji Ling's personal command, tens of thousands of Yuan Shu troops launched a fierce attack on Yingyang City. Under Ji Ling's dispatch, the bow and step were coordinated, Yuan Jun's archers attacked with powerful arrows, and suppressed them from a long distance. The dense rain of arrows made Liu Beijun on the top of the city unable to raise his head.

However, Yuan Shujun's infantry took advantage of the time when the enemy did not dare to show their faces, and quickly climbed the ladder to the top of the city.

In the army, Ji Ling specially encouraged with a lot of money, and selected more than 2,000 troops who were brave and good at fighting. They were all elite members under Ji Ling's command.

After Yuan Shujun's first ascending troops rushed to the top of the city, they immediately started killing. Although Liu Bei's young and strong army had experienced the baptism of war in the past few days, they were already able to fight Yuan Jun who had ascended to the top of the city. Under the onslaught, he still couldn't hold on.

"Get off!"

Guan Yu led hundreds of soldiers, running around the top of the city like a fire brigade. Where there are many enemy soldiers, Guan Yu's figure will appear there. Liu Beijun in Yingyang City saw that Guan Yu was always fighting on the front line, so he was able to grit his teeth and persevere.

Ji Ling was worthy of being the number one general in Yuan Shu's army. He had indeed been through battle for a long time, and he discovered the biggest weakness of Guan Yu's army at a glance.

"Hmph, Liu Bei has only five thousand elite soldiers, and most of them have been taken to Chen State. Guan Yu has only two thousand elite soldiers. Even if we temporarily mobilize the young and strong, how can we resist the onslaught of my 30,000 army?"

Ji Ling sneered, and roared: "Pass on my military order, whoever captures and kills Guan Yu will be rewarded with a thousand pieces of gold and promoted to three ranks!"

The guards around spread the word one after another, shouting in unison: "The general has an order, whoever captures and kills Guan Yu will be rewarded with a thousand pieces of gold and be promoted to three ranks."

"Thousands of gold? If I can capture and kill Guan Yu and go back to buy a field and land, I will also be a master!"

"I'm a Du Bo now. If I get promoted to three ranks, I'll be a Du Wei."

"Damn, kill Guan Yu!"

As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under a heavy reward. Yuan Jun's elite soldiers who climbed to the top of the city were shocked when they heard that Ji Ling had offered such a reward, and they swung their knives and shot Guan Yu.

"Hmph! If you want to kill someone, then come!"

Seeing Yuan Shu's army coming from all directions, Guan Yu was happy and unafraid. Instead, he became more and more courageous as he fought. Cut Yuan Jun's soldiers in half.

At the beginning, Guan Yu was guarded by hundreds of soldiers, killing Yuan Shujun's blood like a river, but as Yuan Shujun came forward like a wave, Guan Yu gradually felt that it was difficult.

Stab it!

The blade slashed across his clothes suddenly, and Guan Yu's blue battle jacket was instantly cut, and he felt a pain in his arm, and a line of blood flowed out.

"Shuzi is so brave!"

Guan Yu was furious, and suddenly slashed out with a knife, beheading Yuan Jun Xiandeng's soldiers who had sneaked up on him, but under the pain in his arm, the Qinglong Saber became heavier and heavier.

Ji Ling laughed out loud, and suddenly frowned.

Whoooo!

From the northwest direction, the desolate and simple sound of horn horns came along with the sound of the wind, covering the surrounding area of ​​Yingyang City.

"Who is it?" Ji Ling turned around and looked, squinting his eyes and saw that the far side was flying the flag in the wind, and thousands of cavalry were spreading out, as if a bit of thick ink fell into the clear water, instantly A big battle was launched.

Under General Xu's banner, a general held a big ax and took a deep breath.

"Xu Gongming from Hedong is here!"
