The Han army was besieging the city on three sides, and the piled earth hills were also received under the city of Chenliu. The Han army could rush to the top of the city without any hindrance. Although Li Yun sent a large number of soldiers and horses to push down the earth hills, he was beaten back by the Han army. several times.

Even Lu Bu couldn't do anything about it.

Xiang Ding's camp in Qi State was also breached. Xiang Ding fled Chenliu with his remaining troops in desperation. Liu De sent Luo Cheng to pursue Xiang Ding and successfully expelled Xiang Ding from Danzhou.

Xiang Ding escaped with his life by chance.

Although the earth mountain was successfully piled up, the Wei army was not helpless. Relying on a large number of soldiers and horses, coupled with burning fire oil, Li Yun beat down the Han army that had already attacked the city several times, and even injured several Han troops. general.

Liu De speculated that within a month, Chen Liucheng would not be able to hinder the Han army's footsteps.

At this moment, Liu De received two urgent reports.

A letter from Weizhou Li Zhen, and Ma Dai jointly reported that there were Qiang rebellions in Weizhou, and several cities were even lost. The Han army was short of soldiers and horses, so it could barely maintain it.

Some Qiang people even cut off the grain road from Wuwei to Zhoukou Pass.

However, Xu Huang's army guarded Zhoukou Pass and could not move easily. If a large number of soldiers and horses left Zhoukou Pass, the low city wall that had just been built might be pushed back by the Qiang people again, and Zhoukou Pass would be lost again.

......

Chapter 574 Ambush (4000)

Ma Teng and Li Dingguo led [-] cavalry to support the Chinese army, causing loopholes in the defense of the Han army in Weizhou and an opportunity for the Qiang people.

The food road leading to Zhoukou Pass was cut off, that would be the lives of Xu Huang and [-] soldiers, so they had to be saved.

Liu Dexin said.

Then Liu De called Li Dingguo over and said to him: "The Qiang rebellion is not small, but in Gu's opinion, there will never be too many Qiang tribes who dare to rebel. Now the food road from Wuwei to Zhoukou Pass has been cut off. , Xu Huang is trapped at Zhoukou Pass, and I need you to lead the cavalry from the headquarters to assist Zhoukou Pass, and cooperate with Wuwei to destroy the rebellious Qiang people."

"The last general is going to prepare!"

Li Dingguo should shout.

Putting his hands on his knees, Liu De asked, "How many people are there in your headquarters plus Ma Chao's?"

"6000 people!"

Liu De nodded and waved for Li Dingguo to go down.

After Li Dingguo left, Liu Deyou picked up the urgent report from Peiping.

Xun was seriously injured and unconscious.

The words on the urgent report made Liu De feel very bad.

"Seriously injured? How can a dignified chief minister of a country be assassinated in the capital! What are you doing for the Beiping government office! What are you doing for Xuanjing Division!"

Liu De was furious, and directly overturned the case in front of him to the ground.

This is the second time that Liu De has been so angry since he took power for several years. The first time he was so angry was when Liu De himself was assassinated.

"Your Highness!"

Dian Wei and Xu Chu hurried in, folded their hands and waited for Liu De's order.

Liu De leaned on the chair and said to Dian Wei: "Go to the generals, the generals of the guards, Xun You, Du Ruhui, Zong Ze, Hua Tuo called over, I have something to tell them."

Dian Wei led the order to go down.

But Xu Chu saw that Liu De was squinting his eyes as if he was resting, so he hurriedly ordered the tiger guards to clean up the overturned tables and tea cups and put them in a good place.

After a while, all the generals in the battalion had arrived. Liu De looked at Guan Yu, the leader, and asked, "How long will it take to take Chen Liucheng?"

Guan Yu stroked his beard and replied: "His Royal Highness, I think it will take at least one month."

"One month, hum, what a Li Yun!"

Liu De leaned on his head with his hand and sighed.

"Your Highness, I don't know what happened?"

Even if the tent was cleaned relatively clean, everyone could see the obvious water stains and the earth pits made by the case, and what should have happened in the tent just now.

Chen Qi is Liu De's eldest brother-in-law, and grew up with Liu De, so he dared to ask directly, but other generals did not have the courage.

Liu De said in a low voice, "Xunqing was assassinated, and now his life and death are unknown. Weizhou is in turmoil, and some Qiang people have cut off the grain road leading to Zhoukou Pass."

"what?"

The generals exclaimed for a moment.

Liu De ignored the crowd's commotion, but continued: "I sent Li Dingguo to lead the army and horses to Zhoukou Pass. Xun Qing was assassinated, and Beiping was in turmoil. It will affect the front line, so I am going to return to Peiping myself."

"Your Highness, who did it!"

Peng Yue's eyes were red, his fists were clenched, and he was furious for a moment.

Peng Yue and Xun have a very good relationship. At the beginning, they joined Liu De together and regarded Xun as his teacher. Now that Xun has been stabbed and his life and death are unknown, how can Peng Yue not be annoyed and angry!

"His grandma's, who else? It must be that bastard Li Yun!"

Zhang Fei also cursed at the side.

Liu De reached out his hand to stop the quarrel between Peng Yue and Zhang Fei, and continued to say to everyone: "You are all generals of the Yiwei, you must stabilize the morale of the army, don't let the rumors shake the morale of the army, after I leave, the army will be led by Guan Yu, and speed up. Speed, when I come back, I hope to celebrate with everyone in Chenliu City!"

"The minister takes orders!"

Guan Yu shouted in response.

"We take orders!"

The six generals Chen Qi, Liu Pi, Peng Yue, Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong, and Qin Qiong also shouted in unison.

Liu De was looking at Xun You, Du Ruhui, and Zong Ze and said, "There are many military affairs. You three must assist Guan Yu well and take down Chen Liucheng. Whether it is a prisoner or something else, I will talk about everything when I come back."

Xun You and the other three also responded.

Liu De finally said to Hua Tuo: "Now that Xun Qing is suffering from the poison of the blade, An Daoquan can barely hold Xun Aiqing's breath, so Hua Aiqing went to Peiping with Gu."

Hua Tuo hurriedly said: "This is the duty of the minister, please rest assured, Your Highness."

"Great!"

Liu De nodded.
