Chapter 312

Chang'an City, Shanglinyuan area.

Today's Shanglin garden has long been abandoned. There are many forests, beasts and weeds in Neizhong mountain. Few people live here.

In the Western Han Dynasty, this is a royal garden, which had been abandoned by the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Today, it is even more desolate.

However, in this forest, close to the direction of Chang'an, there is an army stationed here.

There are six thousand people in this army.

The leader is Huang Zhong.

After he left Chang'an with Zhang Xiu, not far away, he transferred his army to withdraw and hid in the mountain forest of Shanglin garden. At that time, Huang Zhong was surrounded by 8000 elite soldiers, but now there are only 6000.

These six thousand men are 1000 elite cavalry of Langya camp and 5000 infantry of flying bear army.

All the rest of Huang Zhong's soldiers were transferred back to Chang'an and dispatched by Xu Shu. In addition, there are more than 10000 regular troops in Chang'an City, plus 3000 flying bear troops, which are enough to guard.

There are Xu Shu, Liu Ba and Li Yan in Chang'an city. Huang Zhong is not worried.

Huang Zhong's mission is to attack Duan Xun.

The task of garrison was given to Xu Shu.

Huang Zhong has been staying in Shanglin garden, waiting for the news from Duan wensha.

During this period, Huang Xu, Huang Zhong's son, and Huang Wan, his daughter, have arrived in Chang'an. Now Huang Xu's condition is greatly alleviated and is recovering. Huang Wan is responsible for taking care of Huang Xu.

The two brothers and sisters live in Huang Zhong's mansion.

Many people in Zhang Zhongjing's hospital have already arrived in Chang'an first.

Everything is going on in an orderly way.

A few days ago, Huang Zhong got the news that Duan Xun had sent troops from Huayin county. It's just that Duan Wen's speed of sending troops is slow. He has been coming to Chang'an slowly, and he has been hiding his whereabouts all the time.

If Jia Xu and others had not predicted in advance, Huang Zhong would not have arranged for sentinel agents to go to Huayin county to inquire about the news. Because I had been prepared, I knew Duan Wen had sent troops quietly.

"Rustle!"

A sound of walking came from the forest.

The sentinel quickly came to Huang Zhong and reported: "general, Duan's army is here, less than ten miles away from Chang'an city. Before noon, you can reach the east gate of Chang'an city. "

"Well, here we are at last."

Huang Zhong's face was full of joy.

Sentinel continued: "now Duan Wen no longer hide his whereabouts, is swaggering to lead the troops on the way, straight to Chang'an city."

Huang Zhong nodded and continued: "Duan simmer has to go on the road in a swagger to give Chang'an a surprise. He deliberately exposed the news in order to let us know, and then let us panic, so that we can fish in troubled waters. "

Huang Zhong waved his hand and said, "if you want to explore again, you must explore the news closely."

"Yes

The sentry is ordered to step down immediately.

Huang Zhong didn't send someone to inform Xu Shu, because Xu Shu had been followed up by sentinels who were responsible for informing Xu Shu of the news.

When Huang Zhong stood still and hid in the dark like a cheetah, Duan Xu's army was getting closer to Chang'an. Duan Weng's surprise attack on Chang'an brought 30000 elite soldiers, and he poured out.

In order to win Chang'an, he is also out of the question, must win a war. The army attacked and soon arrived at the east gate of Chang'an.

Thirty thousand elite soldiers, such as black clouds, press the city.

Duan Xun, confident, galloped forward and stood in the front of the army. He said in a loud voice: "listen to the people on the tower, open the gate immediately and surrender. Otherwise, I would have gone into the city and left nothing. "

After a pause, Duan simmered again: "now that Zhang Xiu is leading the army out, we are all old and weak. There is no need to fight for Zhang Xiu to the end. You can choose to surrender. As long as you surrender, you will not change your official position. "

Today, Xu Shu also wears armor.

Although Xu Shu was a civil servant, he used to be a knight errant with excellent martial arts.

He is a man of both arts and martial arts.

Xu Shu's face was solemn. He pressed the wall with his hands and threw it on the ground. He said in a voice: "Duan Wen, my Lord and you have never been enemies. In the past, you sent soldiers to deliver Wu Xi's body to show your sincerity. Now, you have attacked Chang'an secretly. Are you not afraid of the withdrawal of the Lord's army and going to your old nest to kill you? "

"Ha ha ha..."

Duan Xun stroked his steel needle like beard under his jaw and said, "I'm not afraid of Zhang Xiu."

At this point, Duan Xun's whip shook, pointed to Xu Shu's direction and said, "I will give you two choices. The first is to surrender to survive, and the second is to fight to death. What's your choice, life or death? "

When Xu Shu heard Duan's words, he sneered.

Duan Xu and other speculators, that is, when Zhang Xiu leaves, dare to jump out of the dark stinky ditch. In Chang'an, Zhang Xiu would not dare to fart.

Xu Shu was not afraid of Duan Xun. He even wanted Duan Xun to have the illusion that it would be easy to break the city if there were not many troops guarding the city.

In this way, Xu Shu could ambush Duan Xu.

Xu Shu snorted and continued: "Duan Wen, even if the Lord took away most of the soldiers, there are not many soldiers guarding the city under my command. But the city wall of Chang'an is strong. It's not easy for you to attack. If you want to fight, I will accompany you to the end. "In his words, he pointed out the weakness of Chang'an's troops.

When Duan Wen heard Xu Shu's information, he was more determined and said again, "since you are looking for death, you will be successful. Today, I will send you to hell. "

"Herald, attack!"

Duan Wen immediately gave the order.

"Dong! Dong

The battle drum sounds behind Duan simmer.

The drums are rumbling with a different rhythm, constantly reverberating inside and outside the city. With the sound of war drums resounding all over the world, ten thousand elite soldiers under Duan Wen's command rushed out quickly and went straight to Chang'an city.

Chang'an city is close to the Weihe River, and there is a moat around it. On the tower, there are suspension bridges connecting the inside and outside. If we do not put down the suspension bridge, it is impossible for a large number of soldiers to enter.

We need to attack the city. It's not easy.

Duan Wen knows the difficulty of attacking Chang'an, and it's not easy to win it.

However, once Chang'an is won, it can control the countless grain seized by Zhang Xiu, and also severely damage Zhang Xiu who has just established himself in Chang'an. This is good for Duan simmer.

So the section simmers the heart.

In particular, Duan's defeat of Zhang Xiu is tantamount to the control of Jingzhao area and youfufeng. In such a situation, he raised his troops to surrender to the imperial court, which was indispensable for him to be a marquis.

At that time, he will be able to stay in history. This is the plan of the period.

When ten thousand elite soldiers rushed to the city floor, Duan Xun beat the drum and beat the drum to cheer for the soldiers in the army.

There is no other way for soldiers to attack the city. A cloud ladder was built on the city wall, a siege vehicle and a cloud vehicle were laid outside the city.

Duan's soldiers soon began to climb the city tower, intending to kill them.

The offensive is as turbulent as the tide.

Xu Shu saw all this in his eyes, and there was no panic on his face. He ordered, "Archer, let go!"

Duan Xun attacked the city, but he didn't use the catapult, bow and arrow to suppress the troops on the top of the city, which gave Xu Shu the opportunity to mobilize the archers to suppress the other side.

One by one, the archers came forward and drew bows and arrows while Duan's soldiers were not on the tower. As long as the soldiers have enough strength in archery, there is no need to consider the accuracy.

In a flash, the bow and arrow poured down like a downpour.

The arrow rain fell all over the sky, and the soldiers who rushed in front were shot head-on by bows and arrows. Bursts of screams sounded, there are countless people constantly fall down from the ladder.

For a time, countless casualties.

However, the attacking soldiers did not stop at all and were still charging up.

They all have a belief that there are not many troops in Chang'an city. As long as you go up to the city building, you can easily take down Chang'an city. It is precisely with such a recognition that the soldiers know that there is a rain of arrows ahead, and they are still rushing forward regardless of themselves.

If they take the spicy food, they can get the Jiacheng prize.

"Kill

Shouting and killing, one after another.

Duan's soldiers, as if tireless, continued to charge bravely.

Xu Shu saw that the bow and arrow could not stop him, and even more and more of Duan Wen's Xiliang soldiers climbed up. He was still not alarmed. He once again ordered: "long spearmen, come forward to meet the enemy!"
