Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 62 The siege of Liyang, the arrival of Cao Cao's army!

The iron cavalry stepped into the camp, and instantly smashed all the obstacles in front of Yuan Tan's cavalry.

The heavy cavalry were the front arrows, and wherever they passed, all the soldiers of Cao's army turned on their backs.

Li Dian and Le Jin, who were in charge of defending the headquarters camp, wanted to resist again, but were rushed back by Cao Chun and Zhang Liao.

Take it directly, command the rest of the army, retreat quickly, and disperse the siege of Liyang.

Counting the men and horses, only [-] of the [-] army remained, and nearly [-] of them were trapped under the city of Liyang and became Yuan Tan's captives.

Zhang Liao looked at Cao Chun with his head drooping and his face blushing without saying a word.

I wanted to speak several times, but in the end I didn't say much.

Prime Minister Cao is about to arrive, and Cao Chun will accept it when the time comes.

The scene of Yuan Tan defeating Cao Jun was clearly seen by Lu Weikuang who stood firm on the city wall.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Lu Weikuang would never have believed that the old dandy had such abilities.

Taking a deep breath, Lu Weikuang looked at the stunned soldiers beside him, rubbed his face, and said happily,

"What are you still doing in a daze, go open the city gate and welcome the eldest son into the city!"

Liyang is not that big, it is more like a huge dock than a city.

After Yuan Tan asked Gao Lan and Jiang Qi to enter the city with 2 men under his command, he and Zhao Yun came to Lu Weikuang's mansion in Liyang.

Lu Weikuang didn't make any spectacle. In terms of status, he was just a general of the Yuan family. In terms of meritorious service, he was able to save his life this time thanks to Yuan Tan's rescue.

So before Yuan Tan came over, he came to the barracks early, after Yuan Tan finished handling the general affairs in the army.

Then he got up respectfully and asked Yuan Tan to rest in the mansion.

Yuan Tan had no interest in showing any intention of sharing the hardships with the army at this time. After successfully breaking the siege of Liyang, Yuan Tan paid another large sum of money directly.

His system draws a lot of money, and he can still afford this reward.

But these fell into Lu Weikuang's eyes, which made him even more frightened.

Lu Weikuang has been guarding Liyang all year round and does not know much about the internal situation in Hebei. He has only heard some rumors.

According to the rumors, the eldest son is a first-class prodigal son, not to mention leading troops to fight, and Yuan Shao has almost always left him idle.

There were even vague rumors that Yuan Shao intended to make Yuan Xi his successor.

Although it is difficult to tell whether the rumors are true or false, in Lu Weikuang's view, with so many rumors spreading together, they are definitely not groundless.

Even if Yuan Tan's status in the Hebei army is not low, it is definitely not as stable as it appears.

But from the looks of it right now, fortunately, he didn't offend this eldest son.

Not to mention the [-] cavalry under Yuan Tan's command, this is Yuan Shao's real family background, and he handed it over to Yuan Tan with confidence.

Not to mention, Yuan Tan paid such a generous salary, and it depends on the reaction of his headquarters.

Obviously, this is not the first time that something like this has happened. After the soldiers received the silver reward, it was not a surprise, but a kind of boiling fighting spirit and anticipation.

From Lu Weikuang's point of view, this kind of expenditure would definitely not be able to support Yuan Tan's family wealth without Yuan Shao's backing support.

When they arrived at Lu Weikuang's private residence in Liyang, a sumptuous banquet had already been prepared, but Yuan Tan had no intention of talking nonsense with Lu Weikuang.

He directly picked up the wine cup, took a sip and put it down, stopped Lu Weikuang who wanted to toast, and said in a deep voice,

"General Lu Weikuang, Cao Cao is making a large-scale invasion right now, and the military situation is critical. You are on the front line and know the situation better than I do. Can you please tell me about this first?"

Lu Weikuang hurriedly put down his wine glass when he heard the words, and said respectfully,
"What Eldest Young Master said is very true, so let's talk about it here."

After hearing Lu Weikuang's narration, Yuan Tan couldn't help narrowing his eyes slightly.

In a pair of eyes, the light flashed.

"With an army of 20, Zhang Liao, Xu Chu, Li Dianle, and Li Tong entered Li Tong, along with the three of the eight generals who transferred from Lu Bu..."

Yuan Tan tapped his fingers lightly on the table, calling out names one by one, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Cao Cao is almost bringing out his family background.

However, this made Yuan Tan feel more right.

The more famous generals there are, the more excited Yuan Tan is.

In the previous battle with Zhang Liao and Cao Chun, it was just a tiger and leopard cavalry, which caused shock and fear.

Just add several Hun cavalry to Yuan Tan to give him the experience he needed.

Not to mention Cao Chun and Zhang Liao themselves.

Back and forth, the two gave Yuan Tan nearly [-] experience points.

How could Yuan Tan not laugh when he saw that he was about to collect another silver draw?
"My lord, when will the general's reinforcements arrive?"

Lu Weikuang couldn't guess the meaning of Yuan Tan's expression, so he could only tentatively ask.

In his opinion, although Yuan Tan is brave, his troops are limited.

Zhang Liao's [-] troops besieging Liyang were only the front.

At Cao Cao's place, there are still [-] troops gathering here, and it is estimated that they will arrive in three days at the latest.

By that time, if Yuan Shao's reinforcements have not arrived, even if Yuan Tan is here to guard, Lu Weikuang will definitely defend Liyang.

There is not much certainty.

Yuan Tan raised his eyes to look at Lu Weikuang, and the system prompted that he had seen through all his mental activities.

After thinking about it, Yuan Tan decided not to trick this unfortunate guy again.

Lu Weikuang has guarded Liyang for two years.

Poor Ansheng was only a few months old. Cao Cao attacked twice in succession, which made him, a little Liyang guard, afraid almost day and night.

Immediately, Yuan Tan said with a smile,

"Father and I set off at the same time. It's just a large number of people. It always takes time to arrive. Counting the time, we will arrive in Liyang in the near future. General Lu Weikuang can rest assured."

Finally hearing the exact news from Yuan Tan, Lu Weikuang let out a sigh of relief.

He was besieged by Zhang Liao for more than [-] days before.

The attackers were all famous generals in Cao's army, not to mention Li Dianlejin, and Zhang Liao himself was a brave and resourceful general.

If Lu Weikuang hadn't seen it, there would be tiger and leopard cavalry led by Cao Chun, cruising around Liyang.

As long as he dared to abandon the city and flee, the tiger and leopard riders would immediately chase after him and wipe out all his subordinates.

With Lu Weikuang's ability and courage, he left Liyang long ago and fled back to Hebei.

However, before Lu Weikuang could finish his breath, there was a loud shout outside the city!

Before Lu Weikuang could get up, a distressed summoning sentry suddenly rushed into the main hall. As soon as he entered the hall, he fell to the ground and shouted loudly,
"General! Eldest son, something is wrong! The enemy army has already arrived at Liyang City, and the flag they are flying is that of Cao Cao's headquarters!"

"what?!"

Hearing this news, Lu Weikuang couldn't sit still any longer, he stood up from his chair and looked at the sentry rider with shock in his eyes.

But Yuan Tan couldn't help clenching his fist slightly, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter!
