The Liaodong Iron Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 359 A Different History
With the [-] troops from Youzhou marching westward, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao finally felt relieved.Although Huo Yu personally led the army, the defensive force left behind by Youzhou was still very strong.

Today, Youzhou's productivity is not comparable to that of other states in the Han Dynasty. Let alone the population base, even the tall city walls are daunting.

If it were said that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao had no ambitions for the land of Youzhou, no one would believe it.Taking advantage of the opportunity of Youzhou's trade, various forces sent spies to try to find out the cards in Youzhou. As a result, it is conceivable that none of the spies near the military and artisan areas survived.On the contrary, honest businessmen brought back a lot of news.

Leaving aside those tall city walls, even looking at the defensive weapons on the surface makes people feel frightened. There are countless bed crossbows and continuous crossbows, let alone those things that cannot be seen.

"Hiss! So, are You and Ji prefectures really unbreakable?" After hearing the news from Xizuo, Cao Cao gasped and asked.

"This" the person who bowed down was speechless.

"My lord, Huo Yu led an army of [-] to go west, and there are still Huang Zhong's [-] Shenji Battalion guarding Youzhou. Guo Jia and Xun You are rare counselors!" Xun Yu reminded immediately.

"Well, I almost forgot, Wen Ruo's nephew!"

"Zhang Yun of Jizhou led an army of [-], plus Tian Feng and Jushou." Xun Yu was interrupted by Cao Cao before he could finish speaking.

"Hey Yuan Benchu, Yuan Benchu, you turned a blind eye to such a good opportunity!" Cao Cao sighed.

In fact, it's no wonder Yuan Shao, who made Yuan Shao afraid of being beaten by Huo Yu.The current Yuan Shao army is like a frightened bird in front of the Youzhou army.Since there is going to be a war, he must find a soft persimmon. In Yuan Shao's eyes, Cao Cao is the most suitable candidate.

In fact, all the information collected by Cao Cao and Yuan Shao was deliberately leaked by Huo Yu.Excluding Huang Zhong and Zhang Yun, Tai Shici led [-] troops to garrison Bingzhou. Guan Yu, who conquered Goguryeo, also led an army on his way back to Youzhou. As for Gan Ning and others, they have not appeared in Xuzhou since the Battle of Xuzhou.

At this moment, Huo Yu is leading an army of [-] troops to march towards Chang'an with great fanfare, accompanied by Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, Dian Wei, Zhang Xiu, Gao Shun, Jia Xu and others. The feather riders, and the rest are all recruited wolf riders composed of Wuhuan, Xianbei and other tribes.

The army traveled westward all the way, and arrived in Chang'an after more than a month.Today's Chang'an is no longer what it used to be. Under the stimulation of Zhang Ji's governance and Youzhou's policy, it is full of vitality again. There are people coming and going on the streets, but there is a lack of merchants from the Western Regions.

Chang'an in the night is also full of attractions, but Huo Yu and his subordinates have no extra time to calm down and appreciate it.The hussar general's camp was brightly lit, and civil servants and generals gathered together.

With a golden crown on his head and a black cloak, Huo Yu, who was sitting behind the table facing south, looked at the dark feather guard in front of him and asked slowly, "Are you still unwilling to surrender?"

"My lord," An Yuwei clasped his fists and replied, "The subordinates have tried their best, and the Ma family father and son didn't even respond at all, let alone be obedient."

Are the stones in the latrine smelly and hard?After hearing An Yuwei's answer, Huo Yu gradually fell silent.In terms of benefits, Huo Yu has promised a lot, who knows if the Ma family father and son have been kicked in the head by a donkey?

Then again, if the Ma family and his son hadn't deliberately revealed the waterproofing, how could the people in the caravan escape back to Youzhou?Could it be that there are not enough chips?Or, thinking of this, Huo Yu's frowning brows relaxed.

But the good times didn't last long. Huo Yu, who had just set off from Chang'an for a few days, got a surprising piece of news.The 36 countries in the Western Regions actually formed a coalition army and invaded Wuwei County, and the Ma family and his son fell into a bitter battle.

If the Ma family father and son could not resist, Huo Yu would not believe it even if he was killed.The Ma family army was selected from among the Qiang people. Although there are fewer Han people, this army is absolutely loyal. Compared with the mobs of the 36 countries, it is just that the number is not dominant.

"Mr. Wen He? What should we do now?" The series of news made Yu a little annoyed, so he had to leave his troubles to Jia Xu.

"My lord, the 36-nation coalition army sounds huge, but it is far behind the Ma family army! As for what Ma Teng and his son did, they just wanted to claim credit in front of the world!" Jia Xu had a green beard and smiled. Said.

"So, let's listen to what you say!" After hearing Jia Xu's analysis, Huo Yu waved his hand and stopped thinking about it.

"Order, pay attention to guard against enemy sneak attacks!"

"Prevent sneak attack?" All the generals didn't react after receiving Huo Yu's general order for a long time, only Jia Xu nodded with a smile.

"Don't your Ma family father and son want to act? Then why can't my Youzhou army act?" Huo Yu thought.

Just like that, the entire Youzhou army stopped and walked, and the speed was as slow as a snail.When it comes to logistical supplies, the Youzhou army's supply capabilities are so powerful that other princes cannot understand.

Guzang City, named Wolong City because of its dragon shape, is located on the east-west traffic arteries, and it has become the key attack point of the 36-nation coalition.

When passing through the two counties of Dunhuang and Zhangye, the coalition forces of the 36 countries did not encounter any resistance. The two counties were no longer under the control of the Han court. Big loss.

The name of General Shenweitian is not for nothing. When the 36-nation coalition appeared, Ma Chao led an army into the coalition three times and three times out, killing the 36-nation coalition in fear.In the end, relying on the advantage of numbers, they barely surrounded Guzang City.

Under the city, a large group of troops wearing all kinds of armor and carrying dozens of different banners surrounded the city for two months.

The commander-in-chief of the besieging coalition army saw that the siege had been going on for two months, and hundreds of storms by the coalition forces could not take the city down. He was deeply shocked by the integrity of the soldiers defending the city.So the coalition forces stopped attacking and personally led a team of personal guards to the city to persuade them to surrender.

"This general is the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces. I don't know if the Han generals guarding the city can come out to say something!" Although he spoke Chinese, it still caused a riot in the city.

"What are you looking at, take the time to rest, I don't know when these rebels will start attacking again, if you rest for a while, you will have a better chance of winning!" Ma Chao's tall figure appeared above Chengtou.

"Rebel, with me, Ma Chao, here, you don't want to enter the city!" Ma Chao raised the three-denier bow in his hand, bent the bow and shot the arrow.

Fortunately, the guards around the general of the coalition army reacted quickly. Even so, the general of the coalition army was still in a panic, which attracted a burst of laughter from the Ma family army in the city.

"Hahaha, come and attack the city if you have the guts!" A soldier shouted with a big laugh.

However, before he finished speaking, arrows shot through his throat. Ma Chao is not easy to mess with, but it does not mean that ordinary soldiers are not easy to mess with.However, this kind of behavior angered Ma Chao, and shot three arrows in a row, and shot the person who shot the arrow to death under the city!
