The rise of heroes who dominate the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 294

Because of the addition of the ballista, the siege of Luoyang was restored to a normal state.

Yes, after Lu Meng set up all the ballistas, the boulder that Zhang Liao had been waiting for finally arrived.

There's nothing else to say about that, right?

After several days of confrontation, the crossbow carts of the Chu army were all destroyed without accident.

Of course, the results are also remarkable.

Zhang Liao looked at the more than ten catapults scattered behind him, and wanted to cry without tears.

Relying only on these more than ten catapults, the firepower could not be suppressed, let alone directly smash the Luoyang city wall.

And just when Luoyang was in a stalemate, Zhao Yun's army finally succeeded in crossing Taihang Mountain.

"Order the whole army, rest on the spot, wait for the Ming Dynasty, and directly hit the party!" Because

of the successful crossing of the Taihang Mountain, Zhao Yun's army could naturally bypass the Huguan Pass and directly attack the county seat of Shangdang, the seat of the state.

It's just that Zhao Yun didn't know that the current Shangdang County City had already changed owners.

And the state, in the county of Shangdang.

"Ma Chao, Wei Xu, Cheng Lian, and the Lone King left 20,000 soldiers and horses for the three of you, so be sure to give the party to the Lone King and I will guard it.

After several days of rest, Lu Bu finally decided to attack Yuan Xi in Huguan.

After all, Huguan blocked the entrance from Jizhou to Bingzhou.

If you don't take the Huguan, then it makes no sense to occupy a barren annexed state.

Although, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry led by Lu Bu was not good at attacking cities.

Don't forget, there is still a general under Lu

Bu's command, and the name of that general is Gao Shun! Yes, Gao Shun! Although Gao Shun's

personal martial arts are only in the middle of Lu Bu's army, his ability to train troops is unparalleled.

The 20,000 trapped camp under his command is the biggest support for Lu Bu to conquer Huguan.

You must know that Gao Shun's trapped camp, but when he attacked Niu Fu back then, the Flying Bear Army established with Dong Zhuo was a strong face-to-face and achieved a complete victory.

In Lu Bu's heart, trapped in the camp is the first infantry in the world.

"The whole army is open, the target is Huguan, let's go!" After

arranging the guards of Shangdang County, the Xiliang army went out again.

Coincidentally, the Xiliang army and Zhao Yun's Chu army passed by, and no one found anyone.

After a few days, the Shangdang county town was close to the left.

"General Zhao, Shangdang County is heavily guarded and cannot be attacked.

It's just..."

When Zhao Yun heard the scout's report that there was no chance of a sneak attack, disappointment suddenly appeared on his face.

But when he heard the scout's words, he immediately regained his senses.

Is there still a turning point

?"But what? Hurry up!"

Seeing the scout's expression of wanting to speak again, Zhao Yun became impatient.

Quite a big man, is there anything that can't be opened?"

"General Zhao, the big silk at the head of the party city, the embroidery on it is Qin Guo and Lu..."

Qin State? Lü

? How is this possible? Isn't this the territory of Yuan Xi? How could it be that what is embroidered on the Great Silk is the banner of Lu Bu of Qin State

? Is it?

Damn, it must be Lu Bu!

At this moment, Zhao Yun had already thought of the general situation.

This must have been because Lu Bu saw that the overlord Xiang Ji was going to conquer Hebei, and he couldn't see it, so he took a long detour and rushed from outside the Saiwai to sneak attack the annexed state

! In this way, it would be troublesome!

You must know that the merger is a must-take place in the Xiang nationality strategy.

Although the state is barren, its geographical location is very important.

Merge the state, but it is the northern gateway

of Sizhou! Now that the merger is in the hands of Yuan Xi, Xiang Ji can still tolerate it, after all, this goods is just a slave of a guard, and the threat to Sizhou is not great.

But if Bingzhou falls into the hands of Lu Bu, then Sizhou's defensive pressure will surge.

Moreover, it is a bridgehead for the entire Han Dynasty to defend against foreign races.

Previously

, Xiang Ji only thought that the master of Bingzhou was still Yuan Xi, so with the 80,000 army commanded by Zhao Yun detouring to Taihang Mountain to directly attack the county seat of Shangdang, where he was governed, it was not a big problem.

But now, the county seat of Shangdang has changed hands, and this matter is not an ordinary trouble.

How could Lu Bu be comparable to Yuan Xi?

Now that the Shangdang county town has been occupied by him, the difficulty of conquering it has increased exponentially.

"Come on, go and investigate, and you must find out what the defensive strength in Shangdang County is. "

Right now, the only chance left for Zhao Yun is the emptiness inside the Shangdang County City.

As long as Lu Bu's main army is not there, then Zhao Yun will still have a chance.

It's a big deal, Yun I have conquered the county town of Shangdang, and I am fighting a battle to defend the city.

Now Zhao Yun no longer wants to occupy the entire territory of Bingzhou, his only desire is to be able to hold back Lu Bu's pace.

If Lu Bu's army is allowed to enter Jizhou, even the entire strategy of the Chu State will be affected by it, resulting in great changes.

After waiting for a long time, the anxious Zhao Yun finally looked forward to the scout's return.

"What's the matter, what is the internal defense strength of Shangdang County? Have you ever found out?"

Seeing the scout returning, Zhao Yun hurriedly stepped forward to ask him.

"General Zhao, after careful investigation, several people unanimously believe that Lu Bu's main force is no longer in the city.

At present, the defenders of Shangdang County seem to be a military general surnamed Ma. "

Is there a general surnamed Ma in Lu Bu's army? Have you never heard

of it? You

must know that after several years of development, the secret agents of the Chu State have long been all over the place.

It is difficult to find out the detailed military secrets, but the general list of generals is still listed.

But as far as Zhao Yun knew, there were no generals surnamed Ma under Lu Bu's command

? Could it

be the Xiliang Ma family

? Ma Teng? Suddenly, Zhao Yun remembered one of the former princes of the Eighteenth Road

, Ma Teng, Ma Shoucheng! Yes, it must be that Ma Teng, otherwise how could Lu Bu give up arranging an unknown person to defend this Shangdang county town?

It's just that Zhao Yun didn't know that the main general of Shangdang County was not Ma Teng, but his son, Ma Chao!

" Order the whole army, immediately reorganize, let's go to Shangdang!"

Now that he already knew that Lu Bu's main force was not there, Zhao Yun didn't think about it.

Didn't you Lu Bu want to enter the Central Plains?

Then I will cut off your back road.

Now Lu Bu can also be regarded as a cross-border expedition.

Shangdang is his current base camp.

If he loses the party, I'm afraid that Lu Buke will be restless.

"Come on, go and find out, what's going on in the south, why is the dust and smoke billowing?"

With the start of Zhao Yun's army, Ma Chao at the head of Shangdang City discovered the abnormality and immediately ordered the soldiers under his command.

Could it be that His Royal Highness the King of Qin has returned? Is it impossible? They are heading to the east?

Obviously, Ma Chao has not yet realized that the dust and smoke in the south are billowing because someone wants to attack the city he is defending.
