The Super Summoning System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1233 Family Offensive
The main reason why there are so many soldiers and horses in Haihun City is that it is close to Chaisang.

Zhou Yu's soldiers and horses were stationed in Chaisang, and the food and grass needed for his army naturally depended on the nearby cities for supplies.And Haihun is the big city of Yuzhang, which is the closest to Chaisang, so this Haihun city naturally became a transit point for Zhou Yu's army's food and grass.

All parts of Yuzhang County sent grain and grass to Haihun, and then from Haihun to Chaisang and Zhou Yu's army.

Therefore, there are so many soldiers and horses in Haihun, but these soldiers and horses are county soldiers.

The effect of the Han army's massacre of the city has been revealed. From Ai County to Haihun, all the cities along the way were surrendered, one city was slaughtered, and ten cities were demolished.

Fifty thousand Han troops approached the city again.

The county magistrate in the city summoned 5000 men and came to the top of the city to defend the city.

Seeing that the city was crowded with people and that the general had no intention of surrendering, a captain of the Han army urged his horse out and shouted, "Why doesn't the general surrender in the city? Is he trying to drag the people in the city to be buried with you? "

The guard in the city shouted after hearing the words: "Zhang Liao, you killed my father, I, Cheng Zi, wish I could eat your flesh and sleep on your skin. I want to make me surrender, dreaming!"

Zhang Liao pointed to Cheng Zi on the top of the wall and asked doubtfully, "Who is the guard in the city? Why do you say that I killed his father?"

The scouts in the army cupped their hands and said, "The guard in the city is Cheng Zi, the son of Cheng Pu!"

Zhang Liao frowned slightly: "Son of Cheng Pu, this is a little troublesome!"

Zhang Liao killed Cheng Pu when the Han army sent troops, so it was impossible for Cheng Zi to surrender.In addition, Cheng Pu is very popular among the people on weekdays. The massacre of the city can scare the defenders of ordinary cities, but it cannot scare Haihun, who is stationed by Cheng Zi.

Zhang Liao pondered for a while, and urged him to come forward and shouted: "Cheng Zi, your father would rather die than surrender, but only want to die in battle. I'm just helping him. If you want to avenge your father, I, Zhang Liao, will be here. Come out and fight with me. Hide in the city and pull the people as shields, what kind of hero is this?"

"Hahaha!" Cheng Zi laughed loudly when he heard the words, "Zhang Liao, your aggressive method doesn't work for me. I'm far behind my father in martial arts, and even if my father was killed by you, how can I be your opponent. Only by guarding this city and waiting for the lord's reinforcements, will I be able to avenge my father."

Zhang Liao shouted: "You refuse to stay out of the city, but you know what the end will be. Do you want to drag the people in the city to be buried together?"

Cheng Zi laughed loudly and said, "Don't scare me with this, don't you think I don't understand? The reason why you massacred the city of Ai County is to speed up the collection of the city, just to make an example. Haihun City has a population of tens of thousands, you have the guts Go ahead and slaughter!"

The strong men on the top of the wall didn't show much fear, presumably Cheng Zi had done ideological work for them in advance to stabilize their emotions.

Seeing that Cheng Zi refused to enter, Zhang Liao withdrew.

Zhang Liao said to Xie Xuan with a sad face: "This is troublesome. Haihun City is not difficult to attack, but if you don't slaughter the city after taking it, Jiangdong Army will defend it. If you slaughter it..."

"I have a plan. I can make the defenders in Haihun City surrender!" Seeing Zhang Liao's dilemma, Xie Xuan said with a smile.

Zhang Liao was overjoyed when he heard the words, "I don't know what clever plan Youdu has?"

Xie Xuan said: "The defenders in the city are still very nervous about defending the city, but they were temporarily stabilized by Cheng Zi. But the people are ignorant, and many of the Haihun defenders are strong men from nearby villages and towns. The people in the vicinity brought them here to let their relatives know the righteousness, so the defenders will surely surrender."

"Okay!" Zhang Liao immediately agreed to Xie Xuan's suggestion, and led the soldiers to order: "Go and invite the people from the nearby villages and towns, but don't hurt them, just say that our army is unwilling to increase the killing , just ask them to come over and persuade their relatives to surrender!"

"No!" The soldiers bowed their hands and accepted the order.

Soon the Han army dispersed to search for people in nearby villages and towns.

The Han army also used the excuse that they did not want to add more killings, and hoped that the people with their relatives guarding the city would say to surrender them.Therefore, many people were quickly summoned to the city of Haihun.

Seeing this, Cheng Zi on the top of the city thought that Zhang Liao was going to threaten the defenders in the city with the lives of these people, so he was furious and shouted: "Zhang Liao, you are considered a famous general, why are you threatening our army with these innocent people? Kill the head of the city if you can."

Zhang Liao didn't respond to Cheng Zi either, and said coldly to the people: "If you want your relatives to live, just say so, if you don't succeed, you will have to slaughter them all!"

When the people heard the words, they hurriedly rushed down the city.

The soldiers at the top of the city were suddenly at a loss.

"My mother is down there!"

"My father is also..."

"My lady, go back quickly, what are you doing here!"

With the appearance of these common people, the defenders on the top of the city could no longer be calm. Most of them were young and strong from nearby cities and villages.Now the relatives are just under the city, but they cannot be reunited with them, and they may even be separated forever in the near future.

The people in the city also started talking.

"Son, what are you doing? If you don't surrender to me, are you going to die for your mother?"

"Husband, stop defending the city. If you don't surrender and the Han army enters the city, you will never see me and my children again. We will be left alone, what will we do?"

"Father, the child misses you, come back soon."

Listening to the calls of the relatives in the city, the defenders on the top of the city finally collapsed.

"Surrender, I don't want to die, I want to reunite with my family!"

"I know if what he said is true. What if the Han army is massacring the city? I'm going to find my son."

The soldiers defending the city ran down the city one by one, trying to open the city gate and surrender.

Seeing this, Cheng Zi was furious, and shouted: "You are all crazy, the Han army will not slaughter the city, will not slaughter the city! Come back soon!"

But none of the soldiers paid any heed to his shouts, and some even targeted him. Taking advantage of Cheng Zi's unpreparedness, several soldiers rushed forward and captured Cheng Zi.

"What are you doing, let me go! You ungrateful thieves, how did my father treat you? Why don't you let me go!"

Cheng Zi kept insulting, but in the face of life, Cheng Pu's kindness to the people in the past was nothing at all.

The soldiers opened the city gate, and the defenders went out of the city to reunite with their families, while the Han army quickly took control of the city gate.

Another soldier escorted Cheng Zi before Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao looked at Cheng Zi and said, "Your father is a hero, and you are not bad. Are you planning to surrender?"

Cheng Zi looked at Zhang Liao and gritted his teeth: "If you are not afraid that I will take the opportunity to assassinate you after I surrender, you can keep me."
