Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 319: Great Victory in Maicheng!

Zhang Liao's morale was already low due to food shortage.

At this moment, he thought that the Xiangfan army had turned around and attacked, and he was immediately terrified.

In the darkness, countless people fled.

Xing Daorong now understood how Zhang Liao could make Sun Shiwan cry for his parents with only a few hundred men.

Once the enemy army is in chaos, let alone our own 3,000 men, even if there are only a few hundred of them, they can move around at will, and we will definitely not be able to withstand it!

Fortunately, Zhang Liao remained calm, raising his sword and preparing to meet the enemy.

In the firelight, he saw a general coming towards him, holding a big axe in his hand and looking at him with sharp eyes.

In the bright light, Zhang Liao realized that the person there was not Guan Yu or Zhuge Liang, but that guy Xing Daorong!

Only then did they realize that it was Xing Daorong who was lying in ambush here!
But he shouted coldly: "Xing Daorong, you only have 3,000 men and horses, yet you dare to come and kill me? I'm afraid you won't know how to die!"

Unexpectedly, Xing Daorong showed no fear at all. Instead, he laughed loudly: "Three thousand soldiers and horses, and I have another thirty thousand soldiers and horses behind me. I will definitely kill you!"

After saying that, he didn't waste any more words and rushed straight towards Zhang Liao to kill him!
When Zhang Liao heard Xing Daorong say that he had 30,000 soldiers and horses behind him, he was shocked and suspicious, and for a moment he didn't know whether it was true or not.

Just looking at Xing Daorong's aura, I was afraid that he couldn't lie, but how could I know that Xing Daorong was just pretending.

I felt uneasy at the moment, and seeing the fires all around me, I lost all desire to fight.

In fact, it is no wonder that Zhang Liao was like this.

After withdrawing from Jiangling, his condition was actually similar to that of Xing Daorong.

There was even no baggage or supplies left, and the 20,000 people made him even more worried.

It is no surprise that they were defeated by Xing Daorong in one blow.

Xing Daorong could see through Zhang Liao's guilty conscience at a glance, so he spurred his horse forward, holding a big axe, and charged towards Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao hurriedly used his sword to block, but his hand was a little weaker than the blow and he was knocked back a step.

Xing Daorong saw this and shouted, "Zhang Liao, your ancestors were the son of a general, and the court appointed you to be a lieutenant, guarding the border and receiving salary from the country. Why do you associate with bandits and betray the court?"

"It brings trouble to the emperor and shame to our ancestors!"

"I have come to arrest you. If you are capable, you should dismount and be tied up, so as to avoid getting your hands dirty. You are not worth mentioning!"

Xing Daorong spoke with great vigor, as if he really had some righteous reason.

Zhang Liao did not say anything in response, but rode his horse and drew his sword to fight Xing Daorong.

Seeing that Zhang Liao did not respond, Xing Daorong's heart suddenly moved, and he could feel that Zhang Liao's position did not seem to be very firm!
Otherwise, you should have responded verbally, but why didn't you say anything?

He thought to himself but without any hesitation he rushed forward to kill.

Xing Daorong and Zhang Liao were both prime ministers. It was truly a case of meeting a worthy opponent in chess and it was difficult to hide one's luck, and meeting a talented general would help one to work hard.

The two generals competed, and saw:

A pair of fierce tigers from the South Mountain and two blue dragons from the North Sea.

When a dragon is angry, its head and horns are majestic; when a tiger fights, its claws and fangs are ferocious.

Its claws and fangs are ferocious, like silver hooks that never leave the ball of brocade fur; its head and horns are jagged, like bronze leaves shaking a golden tree.

Over and over again, the axe is never idle; over and over again, the sword has thousands of ways to be used.

As the situation changed, Zhang Liao also put aside the thoughts in his mind, and the two of them immediately fought extremely fiercely.

Xing Daorong chopped down on his head with his axe, but it missed the top of his head by a hair’s breadth; Zhang Liao chopped down with his broadsword, but it missed his heart by a hair’s breadth.

He is also a warrior who wields a broadsword, and his prestige is as great as that of a bullfighting warrior; a general who wields a mountain-splitting axe, and his anger is as strong as thunder and lightning. One is the general who supports the country, and the other is the black evil god who reorganizes the country.

At that moment, Xing Daorong and Zhang Liao fought each other for forty or fifty rounds, but there was no clear winner.

Seeing that he could not defeat Xing Daorong, Zhang Liao fought with him for many rounds, pretended to be vulnerable, and turned his horse around to ride out of the camp.

When Xing Daorong saw Zhang Liao running away, he did not chase him, but continued to charge into the camp.

When Cao's soldiers saw Zhang Liao running away, they immediately became even more discouraged.

Overnight, countless of Zhang Liao's 20,000 troops were killed, and even more surrendered.

There is no way out unless you surrender!
Although in general, the soldiers do not know the situation of food and grass in the camp, but.
Zhang Liao has too little food and grass!
They brought very little with them and traveled light, relying on the baggage transport from Jiangdong.

As a result, Jiangdong started fighting with their side. Even that fool knew that the food and supplies were gone.

Although I don’t know how many days I can hold out, the situation is definitely very bad.

When they heard that they were troops from Xiangfan, they had no desire to fight and most of them surrendered.

This made Xing Daorong feel a little embarrassed.

When they took inventory at dawn, they found that the number of surrendered soldiers was greater than their own troops.

Fortunately, Xing Daorong brought a lot of food and fodder with him when he intercepted the grain-graining team last time, otherwise these surrendered soldiers would have suffered.

However, although the number of people seemed to have doubled with the addition of the surrendered soldiers, Xing Daorong did not dare to use them!

If they turn against us again, we will be completely finished!
We have to think of a way to get rid of Zhang Liao first.
"General, I have finished the count. We have more than 130 wounded, and 20 died from accidental injuries, falling off horses, and stray arrows. I don't know how many Cao's soldiers were killed or wounded, but more than 3,000 of us surrendered."

It was truly an epic victory!

Xing Daorong felt that even if he was playing the Three Kingdoms game, he would not be able to achieve such a result, but sometimes reality is so exaggerated.

Rather than saying that the victory was achieved by Xing Daorong, it would be more accurate to say that it was caused by the collapse of Cao's army itself.

In fact, the results of many such battles in history were exaggerated, and the processes were even more exaggerated.

However, Xing Daorong was not very happy, as the key still lay with Zhang Liao.

He asked Bao Long, "Where did Zhang Liao go?"

"Zhangxiang is not far from Maicheng, only about thirty miles away, and it is also an empty city." Bao Long's ability has obviously improved now. When Xing Daorong asked, he explained everything clearly.

Even the distance in miles was clearly stated.

Xing Daorong listened and nodded slightly, but said: "Okay, as long as we know where that guy is."

"Their troops are now completely demoralized, so it won't take much effort to defeat them. However, Zhang Liao is a talented general, so it would be a pity to kill him. I want to try to undermine his power and persuade him to surrender."

Bao Long frowned and said, "This is a bit difficult. Those generals of the Cao family are all desperate."

"From Xiahou Yuan to Xu Chu, they all fight to the death. Can we persuade Zhang Liao to surrender?"

Xing Daorong had never really thought about trying to persuade Zhang Liao to surrender, but after he guessed that Cao Cao wanted Zhang Liao to massacre the city, but Zhang Liao refused and instead wanted to let the people in the city go, Xing Daorong began to have this idea.

Although it is indeed very difficult, how can you know if you don’t try?
But how to persuade them to surrender? You can't be straightforward, you need some skills.

You may even have to resort to slightly more despicable means.

PS: I don’t believe the Chinese national football team can lose against Indonesia.
