Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

The soldiers of the Lingtong army starting from Pingyu City all wore simplified iron armor and held standard equipment such as wooden shields wrapped in iron sheets, broadswords, long spears, bows and arrows.

Such equipment, even among all the troops in Jiangdong, can definitely be regarded as a very elite existence.

Ling Tong was brave in battle and had the style of a national soldier. Although he was young, he was quite prestigious in the army.

Both Sun Quan and Zhou Yu valued Ling Tong very much, so they gave him a very elite team.But the elites here are only relative to Jiangdong's interior
Ling Tong looked at the sky, then shouted:

"Quick, quick! Speed ​​up! Try to reach outside Zhaoling City before dark!"

Ling Tong was eager to make contributions, and repeatedly urged the army to speed up the march.

According to the information sent back by Zhu Ran before,
Zhaoling City is just a small city, only the east and west walls are relatively tall, while the north and south walls are relatively low, but any stronger man can even climb over directly.

Judging based on this information, it was only a matter of time before Zhu Ran and Dong Xi took Zhaoling. Ling Tong was afraid that he would be late and he would have no meat to eat.

The city defense of Zhaoling City is indeed not strong, and even looks a little weak.But in such a difficult situation, the defender in the city can still withstand the siege of [-] Jiangdong troops, which shows that the defender is not a simple person.

Of course he is not simple, because he is a student who graduated from the first military class of Taiyuan Academy, the son of Cheng Yu, Cheng Wu!
In history, Cheng Wu was also a famous official and counselor of Wei State in the later period of the Three Kingdoms period. Now Cheng Wu has inherited not only Cheng Yu's wisdom, but also Cheng Yu's military strength. Because of his tall stature, he looks even taller than his old father Cheng Yu brave.

Cheng Wu's highlight moment in history was when he plotted against Zhao Yun, causing Zhao Yun to be ambushed and almost killed in Fengming Mountain.In this life, the pair of enemies met in advance.

"Cheng Wu, magistrate of Zhaoling County, met the former general!" Cheng Wu came to Zhao Yun and bowed his hands in salute.

Cheng Wu, who was tall and had a lot of blood on his body, had killed at least six or seven enemy soldiers, and he was performing literati etiquette, which made him look a little strange.

Zhao Yun laughed and said: "I said which defender can hold off 3000 Jiangdong troops with only [-] people and an earthen city, so it's you, Cheng Wu!"

Cheng Wu smiled honestly and said: "I made General Zhao laugh at me, I don't dare to be a general to appreciate it."

"No, no, no, your performance is exemplary, and you are worthy of being a top student who graduated from the military department!" Zhao Yun couldn't help but praise.

Now Zhao Yun has once again seen the power of the Tai Academy.

Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi, among the top talents cultivated here, have shown terrifying potential;

Now even Cheng Wu, who didn't look so dazzling before, has an extremely good performance,
This made Zhao Yun sigh with emotion, "If the Taiyuan Academy can always produce such talents as Xiao Wu, why worry about the big man's unhappiness?"

Xia Houlan heard the words, and also praised: "The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, you are very good!"

Cheng Wu's face was a bit thin, and after Zhao Yun and Xia Houlan praised him in turn, a blush appeared on his face.
At this moment, Cheng Wusa's spies came to report suddenly, but they relieved him of the embarrassment in a disguised form.

"Report! County magistrate! Twenty miles away, a Jiangdong army is coming towards our county!"

Cheng Wu heard the words, his face became serious and he asked: "The number of people can be found out, but who is leading the army?"

"There are probably more than ten thousand people, and the word Ling is embroidered on the military flag!" The spies reported truthfully.

"Ling?" Zhao Yun obviously had never heard of this character, so he turned to Xia Houlan.

Shaking her head, Xia Houlan said to Zhao Yun, "I don't think I've ever heard of a general surnamed Ling in Jiangdong."

"It should be Jiangdong's junior general, General Zhao, what should we do?" Cheng Wu asked Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun wanted to order directly, but suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, so he asked, "I don't know what plan you have?"

Cheng Wu didn't expect that Zhao Yun would ask himself a strategy, and felt flattered for a moment.

You know, Zhao Yun is a former general, second only to Jiuqing, one of the most prestigious generals in Cao Ying, and has the reputation of "invincible in battle and invincible in attack".

Such a character would actually ask a fledgling mental guy who has never had battlefield experience before!This not only flattered Cheng Wu, but also surprised Xia Houlan.

While Cheng Wu was excited, he also became more cautious.

He does have some ideas, but now that he is going to sacrifice his first time, it is inevitable that he should be more cautious and stable.

After thinking about it for about ten breaths, Cheng Wu thought that his thinking was right, so he said: "This army should come to support because Zhaoling could not be attacked for a long time, although they can't stop General Zhao's iron cavalry. , but there will inevitably be casualties in a frontal battle."

Seeing Zhao Yun nodding slightly, Cheng Wu continued: "In my opinion, we can order the soldiers to put on the armor of the Jiangdong Army, pretend that they have captured Zhaoling City, and invite them to enter the city.

At the same time, our army can set up ambushes in and outside the city, as long as the enemy enters the city, they can launch an ambush on both sides at the same time! "

Zhao Yun smiled and said, "Yes, your strategy should have a high success rate.

That being the case, you should first arrange an ambush inside the city, and our cavalry will ambush outside the city.

At that time, you will use the battle drum as a sign, and our dragoon army will immediately appear to cut off the enemy's retreat! "

After Cheng Wu heard Zhao Yun's arrangement, he felt relieved and said, "General Zhao's words are true, I will make arrangements now!"

After Cheng Wu left, Xia Houlan came to Zhao Yun's side and said, "Cheng Wu is also capable of both civil and military skills. The old Cheng family has successors!"

"I know what you want to say." Zhao Yun glanced at Xia Houlan, then murmured: "When Jingzhou is pacified and her brother is found, I will give her an explanation."

Xia Houlan chuckled when she heard the words: "Zhou Yan wants to have good looks and a good figure. I really don't understand why you are still hesitating."

Zhao Yun didn't speak again, and led the dragon riders towards the woods not far from Zhaoling City.

When Ling Tong led the army to the outside of Zhaoling City, he was surprised to see the flags representing Jiang Dong and the two generals Zhu Ran and Dong Xi on the top of the city.

"You have already captured Zhaoling City?!"

Seeing that Zhaoling had been captured, Ling Tong felt a little happy, but also a little disappointed, which meant that he had lost a good opportunity to gain military exploits.

At this moment, someone in the city shouted: "The one who comes is General Ling Tong Ling!"

Hearing someone yelling in the city, a personal guard stepped out from Ling Tong's side and replied loudly: "It's under General Ling, brother, where are you from?"

"I am a subordinate of General Dong Xi! Earlier, General Zhu and General Dong attacked Zhaoling City in one fell swoop, but General Dong was seriously injured in the siege battle because of his leadership, and is now recuperating in the city. .”

After a pause, the soldiers on the city continued to shout: "There is a lot of food in the city, everyone

You can go to the city to take a rest temporarily. "

The personal guards looked at Ling Tong and saw Ling Tong nod his head slightly, so he replied: "In that case, please brother open the city gate for our army!"

"Okay! Open the door right away!"

"Open the door!!!"
