Chapter 299 The Battle of Moling (1)

Known as "I would rather drink Jianye water than eat Wuchang fish; I would rather die in Jianye than live in Wuchang", Moling is a famous historical capital.Of course, in the early Eastern Han Dynasty, it was not called Jianye, but Moling.Moling City faces the river and controls the Huaihe River, relying on danger, it is a city that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.At this time, Zhang Han led the [-] Yangzhou Army to surround Moling layer by layer, trying to prevent even a fly from flying out.

"You mean the lord will stay in Lujiang for a while?" Zhao Lei asked Ye Wei who came to report.

"Return to the military division, the lord said so!" Ye Wei said.

Ye Wei is Zhao Lei's most trusted soldier, Zhao Lei sent him to report the news to him, it seems that Xiao Lei has indeed encountered some troubles here in Lujiang.

Thinking of this, Zhang Han said to Ye Wei: "I see, Xiaowei, you go back and sue the lord, and I will take this Moling City."

After getting Zhang Han's answer, Ye Wei had completed the task, so he bowed to Zhang Han and left the camp.

"Come here, let Xu Chu, Dian Wei, and Wen Chou come to our military account to discuss matters." Zhang Han said to the soldiers outside the door at this moment.

In less than half an hour, the three generals gathered under Zhang Han's tent. At this time, Zhang Han stood up and said, "Three generals, the lord has just ordered that we don't have to wait for him to come to Moling, but directly attack this city." !"

Hearing what Zhang Han said, the eyes of the three generals suddenly brightened.Can you attack Moling in front of you?Doesn't this mean that there are credits that can be robbed?
Seeing the excitement of the three, Zhang Han also smiled and said to the three: "This Moling County is easy to defend and difficult to attack. To win this city, you need to be outsmarted and invincible."

"Does the military division have any ideas?" Wen Chou asked.

Zhang Han rolled his eyes and smiled at the three of them: "Since we think we can't break the city, why don't we use the heavens to punish Liu Yao and break Moling?"

"Heavenly punishment? What kind of heavenly punishment?" Wen Chou looked at Zhang Han with a puzzled face, looking at this wretched portrait of Han God, but he didn't know what the hell he was doing.However, during the days surrounding Moling, the three people who had a lot of contact with Zhang Han have gradually touched Zhang Han's temper.If Zhao Lei hadn't asked Zhang Han to restrain the enemy army in Moling, Zhang Han would have made some preparations and arrangements long ago, but these arrangements could just become a powerful weapon to capture Moling!If not, after receiving Zhao Lei's order to attack the city, Zhang Han would have thought of the so-called Heaven's Punishment idea so quickly!

Faced with Wen Chou's question, Zhang Han just smiled and didn't answer. He walked out of the tent, and after taking a look, he waved to Wen Chou and motioned him to come over. After bringing Wen Chou over, he whispered to him softly. After a few words, Wen Chou left the main account straight away.After ordering Wen Chou, Zhang Han indeed got into the camp again alone. At this time, Xu Chu and Dian Wei looked at Zhang Han's back in a daze. People can't figure it out!" Immediately, the two stopped worrying about what Zhang Han was planning, but concentrated on organizing manpower to capture Moling City!
In a blink of an eye, another three days passed. During these three days, Zhang Han's army retreated away from Moling at a distance of ten miles every day.At this time, Liu Yao watched Zhang Han retreat, and felt strange, why couldn't he understand why Zhang Han retreated?But Liu Yao wanted to pursue him but dared not.However, Zhang Han's retreat can let Moling City breathe a sigh of relief, because Moling City is extremely short of food, and most of the farmland is outside Moling City. Due to the guarding of the Yangzhou Army, Liu Yao in the city dare not easily Send troops out to harvest food.So when Liu Yao saw Zhang Han retreating, he asked his subordinates Zhang Ying, Xu Gong and others to leave the city with [-] soldiers and horses to sweep the periphery of Moling County. The harvest was clean!And this time their harvest is naturally rich, bringing back enough food for the army to use for four months!

Liu Yao was so happy that he almost jumped up when he got the news. It is obvious that September is a good harvest month and grain is abundant.For Liu Yaojun, this food supply can give him a big breath of relief.Therefore, Liu Yao didn't care about why Zhang Han's Yangzhou soldiers retreated, but directly called all the soldiers to celebrate.Regarding this, the moling city barracks was also full of cheers. Everyone always thought that the Yangzhou army could not attack Moling, so they chose to retreat.

In the evening, a feast was soon prepared. Except for some soldiers guarding the tower, the other soldiers gathered in the barracks in the city, lit a bonfire, and cooked.During this period of time, food shortage in the army is no longer a secret. Of course, those high-level personnel like Liu Yao did not run out of food, but these low-level soldiers can't eat anything. They can only eat gruel every day, not even a pickle. No.Although today's meal is nothing more than some ordinary meals, it is considered a delicacy for them, so naturally they have to eat and drink with open arms!
And in the county guard's mansion, Liu Yao and the civil servants and military generals under Liu Yao's tent also drank happily. Liu Yao hadn't been so happy for a long time.It seems that since Zhang Han led the Yangzhou soldiers to Moling, Liu Yao's Moling army has been suppressed by Zhang Han's Yangzhou army in the city, and I feel aggrieved!If you want to blame, you can only blame Zhang Han's generals for being too perverted. The generals Liu Yao sent out were directly killed by one of Xu Chu, Dian Wei, and Wen Chou.Therefore, Liu Yao never dared to send troops out of the city to fight the Yangzhou army, and could only defend the city for a few days.

But this time Liu Yao felt very happy. Even if Zhang Han's soldiers were still coming to the city, at least the problem of food shortage of the Moling Army was solved temporarily. Moling City must be defended!
Thinking of the joy, Liu Yao raised his wine glass and stood up. He raised his glass to everyone present and said, "My lords! Today our army has obtained so much military rations, and the army is like a tiger with wings added. I hope everyone will continue to work hard to defend Moling is not lost!"

"Oh!" If everyone is in normal times, they still know how much they have to deal with, and they also know that they are absolutely impossible to be the opponent of the Yangzhou Army.But now they all poured a few mouthfuls of rice, their stomachs were full, and their mouths had no way to handle it. Immediately, they all shouted excitedly: "Defend Moling!!! Defend Moling!!!"

"Hahahaha!" Hearing the response from the generals, Liu Yao was so happy, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, then looked up to the sky and laughed.And Liu Yao's subordinates were also very discerning, and they all came up to toast with wine glasses. While toasting, they also flattered, coaxing Liu Yao into comfort!
"Report, report to the lord!" Just as Liu Yao and the generals were having fun in the hall, suddenly a shout rang out from outside, and a sergeant ran in from outside with an anxious face, and was shot. Several of Liu Yao's personal soldiers who were guarding the entrance of the hall were stopped, and they couldn't rush into the hall, so they could only shout from the hall to the hall: "My lord! Something is wrong! Something is wrong!"

Liu Yao is still having a drink with several generals here, and it is a disappointment to be called out by the sergeant!Immediately, Liu Yao's face became very ugly, and Zhang Ying, who was about to toast opposite Liu Yao, couldn't help shrinking his hand holding the wine glass when he saw it. He knew that this was a sign that Liu Yao was going to get angry, so he hurriedly He shrank back, he didn't want to be angered by Liu Yao because of this little sergeant.

But the sergeant didn't notice the changes inside, and kept yelling, "It's bad! My lord! It's really bad! The big thing is bad!"

"Bastard!" Liu Yao's anger finally erupted, and he threw the wine glass at the sergeant with a flick of his hand!Liu Yao's throw was so strong that he threw it directly from inside the big tent to outside the big tent, hitting the sergeant right in the head!It was a wine glass made of bronze, and it weighed quite a bit. With such a smash, the sergeant was smashed to the bone!
Liu Yao's outburst suddenly made the whole tent become silent, and everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to make a sound.But this silence caused everyone to hear the faint screams coming from outside the hall!The hall was very noisy before, and these screams were not loud, so they couldn't be heard at all.Now that it has calmed down, the screams came out one after another, and the sternness in the voice made everyone's faces turn pale immediately!

"What's going on!" Liu Yao's drunkenness dissipated immediately, and he suddenly realized that something bad must have happened outside the hall, and a very ominous feeling came to his heart immediately!Immediately, Liu Yao pointed at the sergeant who had just been knocked to the ground outside the hall and shouted, "Quick! Bring him in! Quick!"

After the sergeant was brought in, Liu Yao didn't care about the injury on his head, and asked directly: "Say! What happened? What's the noise outside? Tell me! You Don't say I'll kill you!" As he said that, Liu Yao immediately pulled out his sword from the weapon rack next to him, and pointed at the sergeant as if to chop!
Although the sergeant was smashed to the point of bleeding, and the pain was terrific, but his life was at stake, he could only gently wipe the blood stains on his eyes, and said with a mournful face: "Back, back to the lord! The big thing is not good." Yes! Most of the brothers in the camp are suffering from stomach pains! And some of them turned pale for no reason! Obviously poisoned!"
