three kings

Chapter 295
"My lord, go and help General Zilong!" Guo Jia said at this time: "Zhongmou is an important place for Yuan Shao's army, and the defense will never be lax. And Yuan Shao's army is full of talents, even if General Zilong is surprised Under such circumstances, it may not be possible to win Zhongmu. But at this moment our army is at a disadvantage, and Zhongmou is the turning point of turning defeat into peace. In any case, our army must win Zhongmu."

Sun Can was slightly taken aback. What Guo Jia said was quite correct. Zhongmu was not a city that could be captured immediately. Jia being able to help is indeed an excellent helping hand.

What's more, Zhao Yun is both wise and brave, and the other party took down the Changsha without making a fuss.Perhaps the person who conspired with the other party was Tian Feng and Ju Shou who he was most afraid of.If it was really them, it would be really difficult for Zhongmou to conquer. After all, they can definitely think of what they can think of.

However, there were Yuan Shao's patrolling soldiers everywhere along the road, and sending Guo Jia there was a lot of danger. If something happened, wouldn't it be that he had lost a central adviser.

He thought for a while, and finally nodded in agreement: "Okay, I will let Zhongkang go with you later."

"No need..." Guo Jia hurriedly refused when he heard the words. Xu Chu is Sun Can's bodyguard, and he always protects the safety of the lord. If he brings Xu Chu with him, wouldn't it mean putting the lord in danger?
When he refused, Sun Can interrupted him before he could say it, and said arrogantly: "There is nothing wrong with it, so it is decided. If you don't take Zhongkang with you, you can't think of Xudu."

"Yes!" Guo Jia saluted respectfully, and said resolutely, "This subordinate will definitely live up to my lord's high expectations and assist General Zhao Yun in conquering Zhongmu."

Long Club.

"Brother, how is your injury?" Gao Lan hurried to Zhang He's bed and asked anxiously.He and Zhang Yun are both from Hejian County, and they grew up together since they were young. They practiced arts and felt like siblings. After learning that he was injured, when they arrived at Changshe, they had no time to take off their armor, so they ran to Zhang Yun's residence to visit.

Zhang Xi glanced at Gao Lan in surprise, and said, "It's okay, I just got shot in the waist, and I can rest for half a month... By the way, how is the battle on the front line? Why are you here too?"

Gao Lan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The lord has ordered the offensive to stop, and the morale of the army has gradually picked up. And I was dropped by the lord. Mr. Yuan Hao said that the Changsha must be guarded by generals, so he asked me to come and talk to the elder brother Let's guard this place together."

"Oh!" Zhang He nodded.

"I knew I could find General Gao here!" Tian Feng laughed and pushed the door open.

"Mr. Yuan Hao!" Gao Lan saluted Tian Feng, obviously respecting this resourceful man.

Zhang Yun was seriously injured and couldn't get up, but nodded to Tian Feng to show his respect.

After Gao Lan joined Yuan Shao's command, he received Tian Feng's care in every possible way, knew him very well, and knew that he must have something important to come to find him, so he said: "Sir, do you have something important to come here?"

When it came to a serious matter, Tian Feng's face became slightly serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Exactly!" He sighed slightly, and said: "Originally, I thought that if Zhao Yun was transferred out of the Changsha, he would The food was returned to Xudu. But who knows, Tanma has never found out the exact location of Zhao Yunjun, nor has he received any news of his going south."

"Where did Zhao Yun go?" Zhang Yun on the hospital bed immediately realized that Zhao Yun's whereabouts was the real key.

"Zhongmu!" Tian Feng said solemnly. Originally, according to his plan, he used a large group of people to transport food to lure Zhao Yun to send out an army, and then captured Changshe effortlessly.And Zhao Yun's army was going to intercept the food, so the food they brought must not be much.Therefore, as long as they learn that Changshe has fallen, they will definitely return to Xudu or Yingchuan because of food shortages.It never occurred to him that the other party would hide unexpectedly and rush towards Zhongmou quietly.

Fortunately, his scout found Zhao Yun's trail in time, and ordered him to sneak into the opponent's camp in disguise.Otherwise, in case the opponent succeeds by chance and Zhongmou loses, even if he captures the Changsha, it will be of no avail, but it will cause a fatal blow to the grain road in his army.

Gao Lan didn't understand Tian Feng's meaning, but Zhang Yun understood it. This kind of thing is not unexpected. Zhang Yun immediately remembered the word "Liangdao" and said eagerly: "'Zhongmu' is very important to our army. Absolutely not to lose. The prefect of Zhongmu is Shen Pei's nephew, Shen Rong. Although Shen Rong is scheming, he is too competitive. He is definitely not Zhao Yun's opponent. Sir, you should send troops to support it quickly. If you make a mistake, it will be too late carry on."
Tian Feng nodded, and said: "I'm here just for this time. Zhao Yun is Sun Can's favorite general, with both wisdom and courage. Ordinary people may not be his opponents. Originally, Junyi and Quyi are his best opponents. However, Junyi has suffered a lot. He was seriously injured, and General Qu Yi was imprisoned again, unable to fight, so the only general who can guard Zhongmu is General Gao Lan.” Then, he briefly introduced the importance of Zhongmu.

Gao Lan knew that he had a heavy responsibility, so he was ordered to lead the army away immediately.

Looking at Gao Lan's voice, Tian Feng sighed in a low voice. For some reason, he always felt a little restless.

Zhongmu!

"Attack, attack!" Zhao Yun kept shouting the slogan of attack.

The fierce fighting lasted for three hours, and the defender Shen Rong was desperate to defend the city, and Zhao Yun neither had good siege equipment nor was his soldiers good at climbing the city.Shen Rong already had some intellect, relying on the advantage of the location to defend Xingyang City like an iron bucket, it was extremely difficult to attack.

Seeing the dead and wounded soldiers being carried down one after another, Zhao Yun became more and more irritable and impatient. His angry expression almost broke his teeth.

Zhang Xiu kept muttering in his heart, his junior brother had always been polite and had a very gentle temper, and he didn't care about other things.

However, since he went out alone for a while a day ago, his appearance has changed. Originally, he planned to act cautiously, first hide his whereabouts, and then observe Zhongmu's movements, and after finding a flaw or a fighter, he issued an attack. With a strike of thunder, Zhongmou was captured.

But after he came back, he immediately changed his tactics, intending to attack Zhongmu by force and win with strength.As soon as this method was proposed, many senior generals in the army raised objections in an attempt to persuade Zhao Yun to change his mind.

Zhao Yun, who has always listened to good words, became stubborn at this time. He would not listen to anyone's words and insisted on going his own way. He even sent the experienced Hu Che'er to the prison. His actions were unimaginable and confusing.

In order to prevent accidents, Zhang Xiu had to fight with injuries, hoping that with his prestige in the Xiliang army for many years, he could play a role at critical times.
