Three Kingdoms Star System

Chapter 21
This time Liu He not only successfully obtained Qiao Rui's family members, but also successfully recruited the general Chen Dao. Not only did he get a first-class general, but he also improved the combat power of the two thousand white scorpion soldiers under his command. With the addition, it can be equivalent to a quasi-second-rate general with a force of 78, which greatly improves the combat capability of the army, which can be said to be a great gain.

Of course, Liu He did not slack off because of this, because he is just in the initial stage, and there is a shortage of both the combat effectiveness of the army and the weapons and horses. Until now, there are still many soldiers under his command with sticks as weapons.

One night after half a month, Liu He sighed with Guo Jia while drinking a small wine: "Well, although my reputation is constantly improving, it is only limited to the fame among the people, but in those powerful The clan is still a bit weaker, I really hope that I can win the help of those big clans, but think about it, what can I bring to those big clans? Why do they help me? Well, after nearly a month of training , the soldiers under my command also have a certain combat power, especially the [-] elite soldiers under Qiao Rui's command and my [-] white scorpion soldiers, they are definitely considered elite soldiers. If we can win a big victory at this time, we must It will win the heartfelt support of those powerful gentry. Military division, why don't we go to suppress the bandits when the situation is stable?"

But Guo Jia said with a chuckle: "My lord, you don't have to worry about the war, because there will be a big war coming soon, then Yuan Shu suffered such a big secret loss under your hands, not only the general Qiao Rui and five hundred elite soldiers were killed by you He abducted and ran away, and even another general, Mei Cheng, was killed. How could he possibly be able to breathe this sigh of relief? Therefore, he will definitely send troops here, and although our army has been training for a month, its combat capabilities are greatly improved. However, we have never been on the battlefield and have never seen blood, so if we directly pull out to suppress the bandits, we may lose more than we win, so we just need to wait for the enemy to come to attack the city, and then we rely on favorable terrain to defend , not only achieved the purpose of training troops, but also defeated the enemy, won the morale of the people, and gained the heartfelt support of the local powerful. This is a good thing that can achieve multiple things with one stone."

"By the way, the military adviser said that Yuan Shu will send people to attack soon. Can we win? I mean, although Yuan Shu is incompetent, his soldiers are well-equipped. If we really lead the army to come, I am afraid our army will not be able to support ourselves at all. Save……"

"My lord is too worried about this. Although Yuan Shu has many soldiers, he also has scruples. He has Liu Biao in the south and Cao Cao in the north. If he wants to draw a large army to attack us, first Cao Cao will doubt his intentions, and Liu Biao has already Missing his Nanyang, I believe that no matter how stupid Yuan Shu is, he would never dare to mobilize troops to attack us, but he will definitely think of a way to encourage those bandits from Runan and Yingchuan to deal with us, and those bandits are the most powerful. Our main enemy at this stage, of course, is also the biggest sufferer who supports our soldiers with food and grass." Guo Jia said calmly with a confident expression on his face.

"It's no wonder the military adviser ordered the deployment of the city defense very early on. The reason is here. The military adviser has a good fortune, and I admire it." Liu He and Guo Jia had a drink and said with a smile.

Hearing this, Guo Jia burst into laughter and said, "My lord is joking. If it weren't for the lord's canonization, I wouldn't be so smart. After all, my lord is too powerful."

The two flattered each other, and when they were about to end the banquet, they suddenly saw Liao Hua, the general guarding the city, barging in and shouting: "My lord, it's not good, there are foreign enemies coming, and the outside of the city is full of bandits. Wan, and most of them I know, are the remnants of the Yellow Turbans roaming around Runan and Yingchuan. There are He Yi, Liu Pi, Gong Du, Huang Shao, He Man and others. It’s fine for the lord to offer the treasure, otherwise, he will definitely come to the city and smash the lord to pieces... Bah bah, anyway, those thieves are powerful and arrogant, or we will hand over the Vulcan envoy to them, anyway It's not very useful..."

At this time, Liu He laughed and said, "Don't worry about Yuan Jian. They are just a group of mobs. They are not a threat to us. Instead, this is an opportunity for us. As long as we annex some remnants of the Yellow Turbans, our strength will increase again." Steps, hehe, military commander, let's go up to the tower together and observe the enemy's situation."

With the previous conversation with Guo Jia, Liu He already had confidence in his heart, so he didn't care about the so-called tens of thousands of bandit soldiers at all. Instead, he took Guo Jia and Liao Hua to the tower to observe the enemy's situation with great interest.

When I looked up, I saw thieves all over the mountains and plains, surrounding the four gates of the city, and those thieves were also clearly separated, with their own leaders as the core, and each set up camp. He Yi's army was stationed at the south gate, and Huang Shao's army was stationed at the south gate. At the north gate, He Man's army was stationed at the west gate, while Gong Du and Liu Pi's troops were stationed at the east gate.

"Lord, our army only has less than 7000 people. It's not easy to win the battle." Liao Hua couldn't help but look gloomy when he saw this, feeling deeply worried.

Although Liu He was also very worried, but as the leader of the three armies, he did not show it. Instead, he smiled lightly and said, "Yuan Jian doesn't need to worry, I have my own plan to defeat the enemy, and the thieves don't have to worry about it."

On the other hand, Guo Jia was smiling endlessly, as if he had a plan in mind.

When Liu He saw Guo Jia's expression, he knew that Guo Jia must have something in mind. He remained calm at the moment and prepared to wait until no one was around to ask Guo Jia for advice.

At this moment, the thieves below the city seemed to have seen Liu and the others, so they shouted at the top of their lungs: "The defenders on the city head, listen, I am Wang Sanhei, the general under the command of Gongdu, the commander of the Runan Qu River. I would like to advise you." You, those who know the current situation are heroes, hand over the treasure quickly, otherwise we will attack your city and kill all your people. Even your master will be killed to vent our anger. All four of our armies will do it. There are more than [-] people. With the thousands of troops in your city, there is no possibility of defeating them."

Liu He smiled coldly when he heard the words, and was about to speak, but Guo Jia who was on the side said loudly: "If you want to seize my land and kill my population, you must have such skills. Don't think that you are a little We can do whatever we want with our military strength, we have the support of tens of thousands of people in the whole city, and the help of officers and soldiers from other surrounding places, so let’s stop talking nonsense, if we want treasures or kill people, we will accompany us to the end!”

As Guo Jia said, he signaled Zhou Cang, who was eager to try, to shoot and kill Wang Sanhei.

Wang Sanhei was confident because of the large number of people. The place he occupied was only sixty steps away from the city. Even an ordinary archer could shoot it, let alone the infinitely powerful Zhou Cang?
Zhou Cang nodded when he heard the words, picked up his bow and arrow, and aimed an arrow at Wang Sanhei. However, Zhou Cang's archery skills were so bad that the arrow missed Wang Sanhei, but unexpectedly he heard another Chu Yiren shouted, it turned out that his arrow missed the target and accidentally hit Liu Pi's throat not far behind Wang Sanhei. As a result, Liu Pi died in such a strange way.

"Kill! Break through the city for me, and then slaughter the city for three days!" Gong Du, who was beside Liu Pi, was startled when he saw this, and quickly retreated another twenty or thirty steps, before he shouted boldly.

"Kill, avenge Liu Qushuai!" The Yellow Turban soldiers shouted in unison, and began to attack the city.
