"Since you know my name, Liu Zheng, you should know that I am not a bully and fear the hard. If he wants to fight, I will fight. I have never been a person who is afraid of fighting, so I might as well tell you the purpose of my coming to Guangxin City , In fact, I want to join hands with you to deal with Zhu Fu!"

"Cooperate with me to deal with Zhufu?"

Shi Hui, who was standing on the tower, was taken aback when he heard Liu Zheng's words.

It seems that some people didn't quite understand what Liu Zheng meant.

"Are you talking nonsense? You are a thief and I am an official. We are two people on different paths. How can we join hands and deal with Zhu Fu!"

"He is the governor of Jiaozhou!"

"I came to you to cooperate only because I knew he was the governor of Jiaozhou. After all, your scholar family is the most powerful in Jiaozhou. Only by cooperating with you can we fight against Zhufu."

"Let an outsider control the entire Jiaozhou, I don't believe it, you have no idea."

After Liu Zheng finished speaking, he stopped talking, but looked at Shi Xie, waiting for Shi Xie's answer.

And Shi Xie never expected that Liu Zheng would say such a thing. He thought that Liu Zheng's siege of Guangxin City was just to deal with Zhu Fu, and he would attack from the surrounding small cities first to destroy Zhu Fu's reinforcements.

But it never occurred to him that Liu Zheng actually came up with the idea of ​​cooperating with him at a discount.

Although he didn't know whether Liu Zheng's words were true or not.But after hearing Liu Zheng say such a thing, he would only find it ridiculous.

"Liu Zheng, do you think I'm a fool? What do you think is the use of saying this now?"

"It's better if I show you a clear way, and now surrender to me. I will send you to peace on behalf of the imperial court, and you can still avoid the body of guilt."

Shi Xie rejected Liu Zheng immediately, which did not surprise Liu Zheng at all.

In front of so many people, all the people in the city and the civil and military soldiers, it was naturally impossible for Shi Xie to agree to cooperate with Liu Zheng to deal with Zhu Fu.

Even if he has the heart, he doesn't have the guts.

In addition, Liu Zheng didn't show that he could deal with Zhu Fu, or that he had the ability to deal with Zhu Fu. It is naturally impossible for people like Shi Xie to cooperate with him.

Liu Zheng didn't say much after hearing Shi Xie's answer.He just responded to Shi Xie calmly.

"Prefect Shi Xie, there are some things I can't tell you too clearly, but I believe that you will cooperate with me sooner or later."

"Hmph, if you don't want to speculate, it's more than half a sentence. I'll put it down. I, Guangxin City, will not be afraid of you. If you want to attack, attack."

"Really? Then let me have a good experience of the strength of Shi Xie's soldiers and horses."

After Liu Zheng finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Gan Ning, and then ordered an attack on Gan Ning.

at this time.Gan Ning, who had long wanted to attack, received Liu Zheng's order and immediately began to reorganize his manpower, with thousands of soldiers and horses.Arrange them all.Under the leadership of Gan Ning.Launched an attack on Guangxin City.

For a while, Shi Xie on the tower also began to look serious.

Although he acted nonchalantly, he was still afraid that Liu Zheng's army would attack.

Chapter 211 Intentionally let go

Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses began to attack Guangxin City.

Although it was an attack, these people had already received news from Liu Zheng, and it was just a feint.

The attack looked ferocious, but there were not many soldiers and horses who actually reached the city and attacked the city. Most of them were outside the range of the opponent's shooter, waving their flags and shouting.

But Shi Xie didn't realize it at first, he was a little flustered, and ordered the soldiers and horses on the tower to quickly organize and defend, but after throwing down part of the arrows and the city defense facilities, he realized that the opponent hadn't really attacked the city.

Seeing that Liu Zhengde's troops did not attack, Shi Xie felt a little relieved, but there was nothing he could do. His own strength was insufficient, and he couldn't go out to fight, so he could only stalemate for a while at this time.

Liu Zheng didn't attack, but made Shi Xie calm down.

On Shi Xie's side, as soon as the agreed time came, he knew that his younger brother and son had already started fighting to break out of the city gate on the other side, which made Shi Xie feel even more anxious.

He was afraid that Liu Zheng had some kind of conspiracy here, and he was afraid that his younger brother and son would fail to break through and end up in misfortune.

But as time passed, there was no change in Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses. It was only after the stalemate with him here that Shi Xie gradually became more at ease, but he was still worried about the situation on the other side.

As soon as the appointed time came, the battle at the south gate officially broke out.

Shi Wu took Shi Xie's son, Shi Hui, and more than 1000 elite soldiers and horses drawn from the Shi family, and rushed out from the south gate quickly.

These more than 1000 people are the retainers raised by their own scholars. They are stronger than the county soldiers in Guangxin City. It is precisely because of the strength of these people that the soldiers have confidence. Surrounded by the same number of enemy troops, rush out.

"Shi Hui, be careful, try to stay by Uncle's side, don't stay away, let me kill you!"

After Shi Wu led more than 1000 people to rush out of Guangxin City, he immediately gave an order to the Shi Hui beside him, then drew out the long spear on his horse, and led the charge towards Liu Zheng's encirclement. .

The troops on Liu Zheng's side are stationed here, and the person in charge of guarding is a newly promoted Qu Zhang. After Liu Zheng's army was restructured, this Qu Zhang was promoted by his own strength, and he was a bit brave.

He originally led a thousand troops to station at the south gate of the city, and did not expect that the people in Guangxin City would come out here to fight him.

After the sudden appearance of these people, I was a little surprised at that time, but I didn't panic. I immediately organized my staff and started to defend.

One thousand soldiers and three hundred archers began to shoot rapidly, and the cavalry began to form a battle formation, responsible for charging, while those sword and shield players and spearmen quickly surrounded them, trying to rush out from Guangxin City. Surround these enemy troops and prevent them from escaping.

However, on the side of Guangxin City, the soldiers with their badges are all elite after all, and it is no problem to deal with Liu Zhengjun who is nearly a thousand.

Besides, they were only in charge of breaking through the siege, not fighting Liu Zhengjun to the death.

In just half a quarter of an hour, Shi Hui and Shi Wu led people to the outermost part of the team.

Seeing that they were about to escape from here, Shi Wu and Shi Hui were excited, but they still secretly thought in their hearts that Liu Zheng, the famous rebel Yellow Turban Army, was not as difficult to deal with as the rumors said.

They broke out from here so quickly and killed them.

When Liu Zhengjun saw the soldiers and horses rushing out of Guangxin City, they had broken through more than half of the siege, and the soldiers below were still urging the commander Qu, asking if they would send cavalry to pursue them.

Qu Chang was the one who had received orders from Liu Zheng. He knew that Liu Zheng wanted to let them go, so he waved his hand to signal to his subordinates that they don't need to continue chasing them, but just continue to clean up the mess here and re-siege the south gate.

Soon the news of Shiwu and Shihui's escape from the south gate reached Shixie's ears through the messenger.

At this time, Shi Xie finally put his heart on hold.

"Okay, very good, as long as Shiwu and Shihui can escape from Guangxin City, we don't need to be so afraid no matter whether the guy is told to bring reinforcements or not."

"Even if we didn't stop the bandits' attack in the end, and the whole city was slaughtered by the bandits, at least we saved some blood for our family."

Shi Xie let his son escape from here with Shi Wu, in fact, he planned to leave a little blood for the Shi family. After all, it is difficult for them to compete with Liu outside the city with their current manpower alone. Compete with tens of thousands of troops.

And at the same time, Liu Zheng at this time also got the news from his messenger that someone in Guangxin City had broken through and went to Cangwu City to ask for help.

"Are you sure, did some people escape?"

"Huai Qushuai, they broke out from the south gate, a total of more than 400 people were beheaded by us, and more than [-] people escaped from the south gate, and more than [-] people escaped from the south gate. We deliberately let the two leading generals escape. kill."

"Okay, very good, this time you did a good job, now continue to guard at the south gate, if there are still people breaking out from the city, we should kill half of them and let the other half go according to the current method."

"Yes! As ordered?"

The soldier in charge of delivering the order immediately responded respectfully to Liu Zheng, then left the big tent and went to the south gate to report back.

And now that the reinforcements in the city have been let go, Liu Zheng has no intention of continuing to pretend and let his men return to the vicinity of the camp.There is no need to continue to pretend to attack, but to defend outside Guangxin City.

The two sides came to a stalemate like this, one side was waiting for reinforcements, and the other was also waiting for reinforcements, but what Liu Zheng was waiting for was Shi Xie's reinforcements.

One day passed quickly.

According to the distance, Liu Zheng can almost guess that the soldiers and horses that the Shijia went to Cangwu County to ask for help have almost arrived at this time. According to his calculations, if there are soldiers and horses in Cangwu City at this time, then Calculate the time, it should be almost here.

"Xu Huang, have all the scouts been dispatched? Remember to keep in touch with General Huang Zhong. Be sure to find out before the reinforcements from Zhu Fu and those guys come here, and catch him by surprise."

Liu Zheng felt something faintly, and said something to Xu Huang.

Xu Huang was very calm.

"Don't worry, Shuai Qu, I'm paying close attention to these matters. All the scouts have been dispatched. Once there is news, I will let you know as soon as possible."

While Liu Zheng was talking with Xu Huang, a war horse rushed over quickly.

Chapter 212 Ambush at Wuyang Ridge

"Report! Commander Qu, there are a large number of soldiers and horses appearing in the direction of Cangwu City!"

A messenger galloping here on a horse, quickly jumped off the horse, and then rushed towards Liu Zheng's camp.

As soon as he entered the door, he shouted anxiously at Xu Huang and Liu Zheng.

As soon as the news came out, Liu Zheng and Xu Huang were stunned at the same time, and then they were happy.

"When is the news, where is General Huang Zhong's people?"

Hearing that there was finally news, Liu Zheng immediately asked the messenger.

"The news came from Cangwu City an hour ago. According to the time, at this time, the reinforcements from Cangwu City should have arrived at the ambush point where General Huang Zhong and his troops set up."

"Okay, Xu Huang, without further ado, we will immediately bring people over to support General Huang Zhong. It is meaningless to continue besieging Guangxin City here."

"Yes, he is handsome!"

The horn sounded immediately at this time, and the soldiers of Liu Zhengjun immediately changed from a state of vigilance to a state of readying to go out at any time.

Liu Zheng's army in Guangxin City did not stop at all. After receiving the news, he immediately set out to support Huang Zhong.

For Shi Xie here in Guangxin City, Liu Zheng didn't really care much. If he could defeat Zhu Fu's army in one fell swoop, Shi Xie's thousands of soldiers in Guangxin City would not be taken seriously at all.

The army began to withdraw from Guangxin City, and the mobilization of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses naturally attracted Shi Xie's attention immediately.

"What's going on? Why did these bandits suddenly start withdrawing their troops?"

Shi Xie stared at Liu Zheng's army outside the city, saw that Liu Zheng's army was slowly gathering, and then gradually retreated from outside the city, he didn't understand what happened for a while.

He frowned, pondered for a moment, and suddenly thought that the reinforcements that his younger brother and son had requested from Cangwu City must have arrived, and counting the time, the reinforcements should be arriving soon.

These bandits should have also discovered that reinforcements were coming, so they were scared and left in a hurry.

After thinking about this, Shi Xie's face immediately showed ecstasy.

He knew that he was saved, and the people of Guangxin City didn't have to suffer along with him.But he knew that Liu Zheng led his troops to retreat from Guangxin City, but he didn't dare to pursue him.

The main reason was that he couldn't figure out whether this was Liu Zheng's trick or not. If it was the other party's trick to lure him out of the city by retreating, it would be terrible.

So knowing that Liu Zheng and others were retreating, he was still sticking to the city, planning to wait until the reinforcements from Cangwu City arrived.

But Liu Zheng's people didn't care about Shi Xie's thoughts at all, and led the [-] troops who besieged Guangxin to rush in the direction of Cangwu City.

At this time, there was a place called Wuyangling between Guangxin City and Cangwu City.

The terrain here is uneven, and there are five suddenly raised hills nearby, resembling five sheep grazing, hence the name Wuyangling.It is also the only way from Cangwu City to Guangxin City. The trees are dense and weeds are overgrown. It is very suitable to set up an ambush.

All the battalions led by Huang Zhong's army set up an ambush at this place.

This place was found by Huang Zhong with great difficulty. It is convenient for ambush and suitable for fighting. Because of the narrow terrain, if Zhu Fu's [-] army arrives in full, because of the narrow terrain, Zhu Fu's [-] army cannot be fully deployed. , if there is a big battle here, it will definitely only happen on a small scale.

In addition, most of the soldiers and horses in Huang Zhong's [-]-strong army knew some archery skills. Once a battle broke out, Huang Zhong's men would be able to deal a strong blow to the reinforcements sent by Zhu Fu with the arrows alone.

When Shi Wu, Shi Hui and others went to Cangwu to ask for help, hundreds of soldiers and horses passed through Wuyangling. At that time, Huang Zhong's men and horses hid better, and he had already obtained Liu Zheng's support. commanded, so it was not exposed.

After Shi Wu and others went to Cangwu to ask for help, Huang Zhong and the others became more cautious, because there would be reinforcements from Cangwu City at any time, and even spies who came in advance, once their ambush plan was exposed, all previous efforts would be wasted.

Until now, Huang Zhongjun in Wuyangling has hidden his body very well, waiting for the rescue soldiers and horses from Cangwu City.

And there are not a few rescuers who came out of Cangwu City.

Shiwu and Shihui fled to Cangwu City.He found Zhu Fu at the first time, and said a few words about what happened in Guangxin City to Zhu Fu.

Zhu Fu had long wanted to mobilize troops to compete with Liu Zheng, and kill Liu Zheng, the father-killer and enemy, with his own hands.

It's just that they haven't found a chance, and Liu Zheng's men have been hiding in the deep mountains of Yangzhou. It's inconvenient to march in the mountains, and before crossing the border to the Yangzhou area, it will still cause some unnecessary troubles.

This made Zhu Fu delay for so long.But now Liu Zheng has brought his own troops to his territory, and it is in Guangxin City not far from Cangwu County.

Isn't this just giving Zhu Fu a chance to attack?

So Zhu Fu, who heard the news, not only didn't feel any conspiracy, but felt that God was helping him.

Then he ignored the advice of his counselors at all, and insisted on leading the [-] troops stationed in Cangwu City to send troops directly to Guangxin City to rescue Shi Xie and eliminate Liu Zheng who came to Jiaozhou to make trouble.

Because Zhu Fu's soldiers and horses were too scattered, they were distributed in various battalions and schools in Cangwu City. It took some time to gather together. By the time they set off from Cangwu City to Guangxin, half a day had passed.

However, Zhu Fu is not a fool. As the eldest son of Zhu Jun, one of the three great Zhonglang generals, he still has some understanding of his father Zhu Jun's way of using troops. Although the army has not moved, he has dispatched scouts in advance go out.

After these scouts did not bring back any abnormalities, Zhu Fu's army gradually accelerated their pace and quickly moved towards the position of Guangxin City.

When the troops led by Zhu Fu arrived at Wuyang Ridge, they saw the terrain around Wuyang Ridge. Although they had some awareness and felt that Wuyang Ridge was a good place to ambush, they led them directly without even thinking about it. Just get into it.

At this time, he also thought that Liu Zheng's army was encircling Guangxin City, and it was impossible to send troops to set up an ambush here.

After all, he knew exactly how many soldiers Liu Zheng had. Even if he divided his troops to ambush here, it was impossible for him to have many soldiers.

Just when he thought he could pass Wuyang Ridge intact, suddenly there was a shout from the hillsides on both sides of Wuyang Ridge.
