three kings

Chapter 179
Tangyi.

"General Li, look, they really sent a team of soldiers to test it out. It seems that the plan is quite smooth." Zhang Xiu said with a smile. He is a very contented person. As long as he is happy, his status Nothing is very important. As for the original idea of ​​conferring the title of Marquis and Prime Minister, it is just some ambition that a man should have.

Now that the status has changed, the thinking will naturally change.

Under Zhao Yun's command, he lived happily and happily, doing some official duties within his ability, and then chatting and spanking with Zhao Yun and others.When you have problems in martial arts, you can also ask Zhao Yun for advice.

The life is very nourishing, and at this moment, I am afraid that he is not willing to let him return to his original status.After all, judging by that fellow Liu Biao's face, he might as well be more comfortable here.

Hearing Zhang Xiu's words, a look of excitement flashed across Li Tong's face. He was originally a knight-errant, but when he saw the big man in chaos, he gathered a group of brothers, Xiaoao Mountain Forest, to deal with bandits who took advantage of the chaos and caused harm to the people.Relying on his martial arts, courage, and strategy, he soon became a patron saint of the Jiangru area.

But although the common people called them "good", the imperial court and local officials regarded them as rogues.As a result, their identities are not soldiers, thieves or thieves, which is very embarrassing.

He had not only defected to many people, but they all returned in the end. The other party was either afraid of him or wanted his military power.Therefore, Sun Can wrote many times asking him to become an official, but he ignored him.

Later, after Sun Can unified Huainan, the first thing he did was to wipe out all the rogues, big and small, in the territory.

Li Tong and the others made a living by annihilating bandits and confiscating their ill-gotten gains.With the bandits gone, they would lose their livelihood. As the leader, he couldn't let his subordinates starve to death.

He saw what Sun Can did in Huainan, and the political achievements he had made in a period of time, and he understood that Sun Can could indeed make the people live a better life, and that his generals would not have to worry about food and clothing.

So, he defected to Sun Can.Originally, he didn't expect to be able to reunite with these subordinates who had been together for nearly eight years. After all, considering his background, being a captain is already pretty good.

But he never expected that Sun Can would give him many important tasks to do after asking him a few questions.He is upright by nature, thinking that since he works under Sun Can, he should serve him wholeheartedly.

For two months, he didn't know how many tasks he took on. Anyway, except for a few days of rest, he was working hard.

Two months later, Sun Can found him, and immediately brought his original subordinates.It turned out that the previous two months had two purposes, one was to test ability; the other was to accumulate achievements.

After the meritorious deeds were consummated, Sun Can handed over all the subordinates who had followed him for many years to him without hesitation, and exchanged for a whole new set of equipment.

Ever since he received an order from Sun Can himself to form the "Thick Earth Camp".

Li Tong knew that in this life, his life belonged to Sun Can.Sun Can's trust in him and his importance to him are enough to make this loyal and upright righteous man swear to repay him to the death.

Since the completion of the "Thick Earth Camp", he has experienced more than ten battles, big and small, and has achieved a lot of results. However, this is the first time for him to lead the army alone and coordinate the overall situation. He is both nervous and excited.

Zhang Xiu said again: "General, how do you fight this battle? I have fought deceitful defeats, and I often fight victorious battles. However, I have never fought a battle that is invincible and undefeated. It seems to be defeated but undefeated." .”

Li Tong laughed and said: "I don't either, but it's not difficult, just change the commander to command." Immediately, he shouted: "Li Lie, you are in charge of this battle."

Li Lie was startled. He had been by Li Lie's side since Li Tong's uprising, and he usually paid a lot of attention.Therefore, being appreciated by Li Tong, he was regarded as his right-hand man, but commanding the army would be a virgin entering the bridal chamber-a bad first.In a hurry, he quickly rejected it.

But what Li Tong wanted was that Li Lie didn't have any experience, so he was forced to push him to the forefront of command.

Under the city, the enemy general Wang Hu set up an attacking stance, Li Lie shouted loudly: "Shoot the arrow!"

Sparse arrows shot down, except for some people nearby who shot arrows, the people in the distance were completely indifferent.This is not disobeying orders, but not listening clearly.

After all, a person's voice is limited, how can it be transmitted so far?

Li Lie was anxious, and looked back at Li Tong. Seeing him closing his eyes and resting his mind, he sighed helplessly, and shouted as he ran, "Let the arrows go, let the arrows go."

Running from the top of the wall to the end of the wall, all the soldiers finally shot arrows sparsely, but because the order was not obeyed, the arrows shot aimlessly, there was no volley of arrow feathers at all, and the momentum of flying locusts filled the sky.

Zhang Xiu couldn't help laughing "haha" and said, "Why is this kid so stupid? Of course it's useless to use words to command on the battlefield, otherwise what are you doing with banners and drums? I have to remind him, otherwise he would run like this If the orders to come and go are fired for several hours, and the weapons do not kill him, he will be exhausted to death."

"No." Li Tong hurriedly got up, held Zhang Xiu, and said with a smile: "This is what I want. General Zhang may not understand that before Tong was under the command of the lord, he had fought with more than ten bandits , Fighting bandits. Most of them only have two orders, one is to rush and the other is to escape, which is not as complicated as in the army.

If at this moment, our army uses the banner to command, the other party must be suspicious.Now is a good time to prove that we are rogues, the general must not delay. "

Zhang Xiu Dawu said: "What a cunning guy, hehe, I understand. Let Li Lie run around, anyway, the team below is also feinting to test the truth."

***********************
Not far away, Ruo Rong looked at the group of "rogues" in Tangyi's city wall with a smile on his face, "haha" laughed and said, "This is God helping me.

Rogues are rogues.Don't ever think about being successful, with this level, tomorrow, as long as the whole army makes a fierce attack, Tangyi can be taken down in less than a few hours.

In this way, Liu Yao, an old fox, can see the strength of our army, otherwise he really thinks we are easy to bully. "

Then, he called Jin to withdraw his troops, called Wang Hu back and asked, "Wang Hu, what's the result of the test?"

Wang Hu curled his lips in disdain, and said: "A group of trash, they can't even shoot all the arrows, so what's the point? With their level, they can easily take down Tangyi with less than [-] troops."

Ruo Rong said confidently: "Wang Hu, pass on the order to rest for a day, recharge your batteries, and break the city tomorrow."

At this moment, Ruo Rong's confidence was extremely high.
