Chapter 370

Two days later, according to Zhao Qian's arrangement, Xu Chu and Gao Shun led a group of troops and continued eastward to stop Runan Bridge.

And Zhao Qian took Zhang Fei and Ma Chao to the south from Chenjun to Shangcai to kill.

Shangcai is not far from Chenjun, and the news that Lei Bojun was defeated by Zhao Qian had already reached Chen Ji's ears.

Then, the scouts reported to Chen Ji that Zhao Qian led Zhang Fei and Ma Chao to attack Shangcai, scaring Chen Ji very much.

Chen Ji is usually very timid and has never been a pioneer, so this time Yuan Shu arranged for him to cut Zhao Qian's back.

It's just that Yuan Shu's idea was too ideal, or that Yuan Shu was too arrogant. Zhao Qian didn't need Chen Ji to break the way, and came directly to Shangcai.

At this time, Chenjun Lei Bo had been defeated, and Shangcai was exposed to Zhao Qian's attack. Now the only ones who can ask for help are Runan's Qiao Rui and Yang Feng who are ready to respond.

Therefore, Chen Ji reinforced Shangcai's fortifications, and at the same time sent soldiers to send letters to Qiao Rui and Yang Feng for help.

The battle between the two sides seemed to be on the verge of breaking out, but when Zhao Qian's army approached Shangcai City, Chen Ji stayed behind closed doors.

Therefore, Zhao Qian ordered to attack the city. However, Chen Ji's [-] troops defended the city with all their strength, and Zhao Qian returned without success on the first day.

Although Zhao Qian's sergeants, under the leadership of Zhang Fei and Ma Chao, fought bravely, the defense in the city was too tight and there were almost no loopholes.

Although Zhao Qian had a thunderbolt car to help him, the other party had enough manpower, and the gap opened by the thunderbolt car would not be able to be repaired soon.

"This Chen Ji is really a coward, and he really didn't go out of the city to fight!" Zhang Fei came to the big tent, cursing.

In this regard, Ma Chao deeply agrees. The two led the army to attack the city for a day, but did not achieve any results.

As tiger generals at that time, on the battlefield, they were not afraid of encountering brave and desperate people, but they were afraid of encountering a cowardly person like Chen Ji.

In the eyes of Zhang Fei and Ma Chao, Chen Ji was like a shrinking tortoise, but he effectively defended against Zhao Qian's attack.

Sometimes, just like this, the tortoise shrinks its head and limbs into its shell, no matter whether you are a jackal, a tiger or a leopard, you can't say anything.

Xun You sighed softly, and said, "Then Chen Ji was cautious by nature, now that he heard that Lei Bo was destroyed by the lord, of course he dare not go out of the city to fight our army."

Zhang Fei snorted coldly and said: "Brother, tomorrow I and Meng Qi will attack the city again, if you don't believe it, you won't be able to!"

Zhao Qian glanced at Zhang Fei, but did not respond. If you look at the effect of today's siege, it may not be possible to attack the city tomorrow.

"What's Gongda's opinion?" Zhao Qian asked.

Xun You chuckled, and said, "Generals Yide and Mengqi are the best generals in the world. If you focus on attacking the city, there is no city that cannot be broken in the world. It's just the lord. If you do this, the gain will outweigh the loss!"

"Oh? The gains outweigh the losses? Gongda, please tell me." Zhao Qian said with a slight smile.

Xun You bowed his hands to the three of Zhao Qian, and said: "Now our army is a siege army. The law of war says that if it is ten, it will surround it, if it is five, it will attack it. If you don't do it, you can avoid it. Now our army has [-] troops, and Shangcai City has [-] troops. According to the law of war, it can be fought but not attacked. However, the lord's sergeants are all brave and have extraordinary combat power, which is different. However, , if you want to capture Shangcai, you have to pay a lot of price, the principle of injuring the enemy one thousand and self-injury eight hundred, I think the lord and the two generals should understand."

After hearing Xun You's words, Zhao Qian, Zhang Fei, and Ma Chao all nodded. In today's siege battle alone, nearly a thousand soldiers under Zhao Qian were killed or injured.

However, even with nearly a thousand casualties, no effective results have been achieved. If Shangcai is really going to be captured, the casualties can be imagined.

Seeing that the three of them did not speak, Xun You continued, "The purpose of my lord's trip is Yuan Shu, not just Shangcai City. If too many soldiers and horses are lost here, what's the point of taking it down?"

Zhao Qian nodded and said: "What Gongda said is very true. This time it was my fault, which caused the soldier to die in vain."

"My lord is too serious." Xun You said quickly.

Zhang Fei felt quite impatient with Xun You's phone call, but he could tell that his elder brother was not going to continue to attack Shang Cai.

"Brother, what should we do next?" Zhang Fei asked.

Zhao Qian sighed softly and said, "According to what Gongda said before, we searched for Shangcai's grain road, sent troops to intercept and kill the grain trucks, and cut off Shangcai's grain and grass supply."

Xun You nodded, Zhang Fei and Ma Chao clasped their fists together and said, "Don't worry, elder brother (lord), we will definitely not let a grain of grain be transported into Shangcai City."

"Go!"

In Pingyu County, in Daping Mountain, five miles to the west, a group of sergeants is leading several carriages. There are about 300 people in this group.

"Zhang Junhou, why don't you rest for a while, the brothers are all tired from walking." A sergeant in the team shouted.

"That's right, it's been almost a day since I left, so I should take a rest."

The other sergeants also echoed, and it could be seen that they were indeed a little tired.

Zhang Junhou, who was in front of the team, looked up at the surrounding environment, and said loudly: "The terrain here is complicated, it's better to go there earlier, and now the Lord is fighting with Zhao Qian, it's not a peaceful day."

After hearing this, the other sergeants looked bitter. Although they continued to march, their speed obviously slowed down.

Zhang Junhou is not a fool, he immediately noticed the change in the team, frowned, and shouted: "This place is not far from Shangcai, speed up the march, don't delay, or the army will be severely punished!"

Seeing that the Marquis was angry, these sergeants did not dare to neglect, and immediately increased their marching speed and moved towards Shangcai.

However, Zhang Junhou yelled, "Stop!"

The sergeant at the back didn't know why, and thought that Zhang Junhou had found out and asked them to rest, but when he just stretched out his head to look forward, he was not only scared to death.

I saw an army blocking the way in front of them. I don't know how many people there are, but they must be more than their food delivery team.

After all, Zhang Junhou was the leader of the first team, so he took a few steps forward boldly and asked, "Who are you? Why are you blocking my way?"

The leader snorted coldly and said, "I am the Wei Wangshan under the tent of Tinghou Zhang Fei of Jixian County in Han Dynasty. I will wait for you here for a long time!"

Zhang Junhou was startled, knowing that the other party was not kind, so he quickly shouted to the sergeant behind him: "Form the formation, protect the food!"

Soon the grain transport soldiers formed a battle formation. During this period, Wang Shan did not launch an attack, but gave them enough time to prepare.

However, even if Zhang Junhou was able to form a battle formation, he also found out tragically that his little army might not be the enemy's opponent!
