Chapter 903
Xinchang is less than a hundred miles away from Xiangping. It is the southern gateway of Xiangping, and its defenders have more than 5000 troops.

Chen Qingzhi sent scouts ahead and learned that Xinchang had thousands of defenders, so he gave up his plan to attack Xinchang.

At this time, Liaodong is in troubled times, and Xinchang is so close to Liaodong. If Xinchang is attacked, Liaodong will save it.Moreover, Xinchang is also considered a strong city, if it is attacked by force, it will definitely be damaged.

Therefore, Chen Qingzhi gave up his plan to attack Xinchang.

It happened that the scouts were inquiring about Xinchang's situation, and the Xinchang defenders did not know how many troops Chen Qingzhi had under his command.

Thinking of this, Chen Qingzhi sent Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin to lead [-] troops to Xinchang.And he led [-] soldiers and horses behind.In this way, the defenders of Xinchang will definitely ask Liu Bei for help. Liu Bei only thought that there were [-] enemies, and he should only send about [-] troops to fight.

At that time, Chen Qingzhi will lead 4 people from the rear to take advantage of the momentum and will surely defeat Liu Bei's army.

Before Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin led their troops to Xinchang, Chen Qingzhi warned: "When you go here, you must not announce your real name. Now General Xue is stationed in the west of the Liaohe River, and Liu Bei has a navy stationed on the Liaohe River. But the Liaohe River is thousands of miles long. , is it so easy to garrison? You can pretend to be General Xue's soldiers and horses, and let the Xinchang defenders think that you are General Xue's soldiers and horses. In this way, Liu Bei will definitely be confused."

Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin laughed and said, "Mystery, I understand!"

The two immediately led their soldiers and horses to the foot of Xinchang City, only surrounded one gate, but did not block the other three gates, so that the Xinchang defenders could report the letter.

It happened that Xue Rengui stationed troops west of the Liaohe River, Xue Rengui was the chief general, and Wu Yunzhao was the deputy general. The defenders in Qingxinchang City also knew about this.

As for Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin, Qin Qiongsheng was tall and mighty, and was about the same age as Xue Rengui.And Luo Shixin's White Horse Silver Spear is similar to Wu Yunzhao.

After discussing with each other, they asked the soldiers to raise two banners of Xue and Wu, with Qin Qiong pretending to be Xue Rengui and Luo Shixin pretending to be Wu Yunzhao.

It's just that the weapons, war horses and armor have to be changed. Qin Qiong abandoned the yellow puma horse, and replaced the Zhangba horse with a white horse, white armor, and a square sky painting halberd.Dressed like this, even if the Han army watched from a distance, they only thought that Xue Rengui was here in person.

And Luo Shixin was originally a white horse, silver gun, and white armor, and he acted in his true colors, but he didn't change his weapons and horses.

When the two arrived at the city with their troops, Qin Qiong rode out first, and shouted in a deep voice: "I am Xue Rengui, the governor of Youzhou, and now I am leading my troops across the Liaohe River. Kaesong surrendered. If you are stubborn, don't blame the governor for being rude."

Luo Shixin also urged the horse to come out, and shouted: "This general is Wu Yunzhao, the general of Youzhou, so you surrender quickly, otherwise I will show you whether Grandpa's spear is sharp."

The guards in the city learned that the Han army was attacking, and hurried to the top of the city. Seeing that the two people in the city claimed to be Xue Rengui and Wu Yunzhao, they were suddenly shocked.

Surprise is fear, Xue Rengui and Wu Yunzhao have long been famous, especially Xue Rengui is the governor of Youzhou, and he is very brave and good at archery.If they really attacked Xinchang, it would be a disaster.

Doubt is suspicion, Xue Rengui and Wu Yunzhao lead troops far to the west of the Liaohe River. There are tens of thousands of naval troops stationed on the Liaohe River, and the defense is tight. How did Xue Rengui and Wu Yunzhao cross the Liaohe River?

Could it be that the Liaohe Navy was really wiped out?But Xue Rengui didn't have a navy under his command, so how could he wipe out tens of thousands of navy troops?

"Whether it's Xue Rengui or not, Wu Yunzhao came in person, but it must be the Han army. How did they enter Liaodong?" The guard asked with a puzzled expression.

"Xue Rengui is here, who dares to come out and fight to the death with me?" Qin Qiong under the city shouted loudly.

The guard's eyes lit up, and he said secretly: "The Han army has not yet surrounded the other three gates. I will send troops to inform the lord immediately. In addition, I will send people to show up, to delay the time and prevent them from chasing the messenger, and to see how the martial arts are. Are they really Xue Rengui and Wu Yunzhao?"

The guard immediately sent a cavalry north to inform Liu Bei that Qin Qiong under the city was instructed by Chen Qingzhi, and after the defenders sent people out of the city, they sent troops to surround Xinchang and chase the messenger. Of course they would not be able to catch up.

The guard quickly sent two people to delay Xue Rengui and Luo Shixin who were under the city, lest they personally send troops to chase the messenger.

Two captains, one came to fight Qin Qiong, and the other came to fight Luo Shixin.Although Qin Qiong has changed weapons, he is still a top player in the world. How can these two captains be able to deal with it?

One shot at a time, and the two guards died.

Xinchang is hundreds of miles away from Xiangping, even if Liu Bei sends troops to arrive, it will take two days at the fastest.

Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin set up camp under the city, leading troops to challenge every day to suppress the morale of the soldiers and horses in the city.

The messenger sent by Xinchang City went all the way north to Xiangping to inform Liu Bei.

Liu Bei has generals Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Xiong Kuohai, Wei Wentong, Luo Yi, Li Keyong, Li Cunmao, Li Siyuan, Li Sizhao and other generals.

As for Shi Jingtang's rebellion, Di Qing had beheaded him, while Luo Cheng had been taken away by Jiang Song and had not yet returned.

Liu Bei's soldiers and horses guarded the Liaohe River and Gaoxian separately. Among them, Guan Yu led a navy of [-] troops, with Li Siyuan, Li Sizhao and other generals under his command.

On the other hand, Zhang Fei guarded Gao Xian, with Li Keyong, Li Cunmao and other generals under his command.However, Zhang Fei was not a general, and Liu Bei asked Li Mi to serve as a military adviser to garrison Gao Xian, who also had [-] troops.

As for Xiangping City, there are [-] soldiers and horses, and Luo Yi, Xiong Kuohai, and Wei Wentong are under their command.At the same time, Wei Zheng, Tian Yu and others made suggestions.

When Liu Bei got the news, he quickly summoned civil and military officials to discuss.

"Aren't you talking nonsense? The second general led the water army to guard the Liaohe River. Xue Rengui and Wu Yunzhao couldn't grow wings? How could they rush to Xinchang?" Hearing the news that Xue Rengui and Wu Yunzhao's troops were approaching the city, Xiong Kuohai immediately raised doubts.

"It's Xue Rengui and Wu Yunzhao, that's right. They fly the banner of Xue and Wu, and they call themselves Xue Rengui and Wu Yunzhao. They are neither deaf nor blind, and everything they say is true." The messenger quickly argued.

"The Han army does not have a navy, so it is impossible to cross the Liaohe River." Xiong Kuohai shook his head repeatedly, not believing the news.

Liu Bei's face was very gloomy, Guan Yu guarded Liaohe, if Xue Rengui was really here, and Wu Yunzhao led his troops, wouldn't Guan Yu have already encountered an accident?
Seeing that Liu Bei's expression was not right, Wei Zheng quickly said, "My lord, don't panic, I'll ask you a question or two."

"Let me ask you, how many soldiers and horses have the Han army brought, and what are Xue Rengui and Wu Yunzhao dressed in?" Wei Zheng looked at the messenger and asked.

"The Han army came with [-] soldiers and horses. Xue Rengui was dressed as in the legend, with a white horse and white robe, holding a Fang Tian painted halberd, and carrying a longbow. Wu Yunzhao is also a white horse with a silver spear, quite similar to General Luo Cheng," the messenger replied. .

"It's really Xue Rengui. Wu Yun has summoned him, but he doesn't know how the second brother is doing? Hurry up and send someone to Liaohe to find out." Liu Bei's eyes were tearing, and he quickly ordered.

Wei Zheng didn't stop, Xue Rengui and Wu Yunzhao's outfits matched very well, although Wei Zheng didn't believe it, he didn't dare to assert that it wasn't Xue Rengui and Wu Yunzhao who came.

But he still said: "My lord, don't worry, the Han army only came with [-] million soldiers and horses, but Xue Rengui has [-] soldiers and horses under his command! Even if Xue Rengui led the troops here, it must be just a smuggled crossing. It is safe. Moreover, Xue Rengui and Wu Yunzhao's lone army penetrated into the hinterland of Liaodong, which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our army. Our army can take this opportunity to eliminate Xue Rengui, Wu Yunzhao, and severely damage the Han army."

Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard the words, and said: "The military adviser is right. This time I will personally lead the army and lead [-] troops. Luo Yi, Xiong Kuohai, and Wei Wentong will go with me. I will trouble the military adviser to guard Xiangping."

Although Wei Zheng was a famous prime minister in the Tang Dynasty, he was good at governing the country and had a strong personality. He was not as good as Li Mi, a counselor who was good at military strategy and could guess what he wanted.Therefore, although he noticed something wrong with the Han army, he didn't guess the essence. He didn't expect that this army was a soldier from Qingzhou.
