The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

Zhe Rong's life in Xiapi was very good. He held a county in his hands, and he won Tao Qian's credit. He was dressed in brocade and jade. Talking about the scriptures, drinking and drinking with the officials, sons and nephews who are close to each other, doing Buddhist affairs from time to time, and donating some food and wine to the people, how comfortable and comfortable, but the good days ended suddenly two days ago.

Since Xun Zhen suddenly launched an attack, the bad news came one after another, so that he had no chance to breathe.

The news of the fall of Huailing arrived, the news of the fall of Xuxian came again, and then I heard that the Huaibei defense line collapsed, the main force of Xun's army easily crossed Huaihuai, and the soldiers pointed directly at Xiaqiu. , Said that Sun Jian's troops in Yuzhou were also ready to move, and they reached Gaixia in the north, as if they had formed an east-west echo with Xun's army, causing even greater pressure on Xiaqiu and other places.

It wasn't over yet, when I received a military report again, saying that Zhao Yun had left Ling County, entered Xiapi, had three battles and three victories, and was rapidly approaching Xiaxiang.

The continuous bad news made Zhe Rong devastated.

When he received the military report that Zhao Yun was approaching the minister, he had just finished the military meeting about how the main force of Xun's army had reached Xuxian and Xiapi, but when he heard about this variable, he had no choice but to take the man who had just left soon. The officers and county officials were called back.

When all the people attending the meeting arrived, Zhe Rong ordered his attendants to pass the military report they received to them, and said, "Let's take a look, Zhao Yun is about to take a photo."

The attendees included the county officials of Xiapi County, officers from the army of Xiapi County, and officers from the army sent by Tao Qian to assist Zherong.

Everyone was shocked when they heard it.

Since Zhe Rong has already stated the content of the military newspaper, there is no need to pass it on.

Immediately, someone stood up and said: "Xu Zhongfang entered Xu County, Zhao Yun is close to the minister, and Han Danglang is on the side. With the strength of my county, it is difficult to resist. Fujun, if you need to ask the prefectural government for help, you should immediately Send people to rush to Tan County!"

The person who spoke was named Chu Fang, who was the servant of Chu Rong, who now controls the military power in the Xiapi County army.

Zhe Rong said angrily: "Do you still need to say this? Before I asked you to come, I wrote another emergency report and sent it to the East China Sea!" He asked the rest of the people, "Now Xiapi is being attacked on three sides, Uncle Fang will send reinforcements tomorrow, and he can't solve the near fire in Xiapi. The most urgent task is to try to get through the current situation first. Do you have any good strategies for defending against the enemy?"

One person said: "In the military meeting just now, the mansion has made a plan to rescue Xiaqiu immediately. Now it seems that Xiaqiu is saved, and the lower minister must be saved."

"What's your plan?"

"If there is a good strategy, there are no subordinate officials. It is nothing more than to save Xiaqiu, and it is necessary to immediately send troops to help the subordinate minister."

This man is talking nonsense. Zhe Rong didn't give up, and asked the rest of the people, "Do you have any other countermeasures?"

Another person suddenly stood up.

Zhe Rong saw that he got up and made a lot of movement, thinking that he must have a good plan, he looked at him eagerly, and asked, "What is your plan? Tell me quickly!"

This person's name is Yang Qian, a native of Xiapi County, and he is currently the chief of the military officer in the county.

Yang Qian said, "If I want to tell you, there shouldn't have been Xun Guangling's attack on my Xiapi!"

This sentence had no beginning or end, and everyone was stunned. Zhe Rong asked, "What do you mean by this?"

"Xun Zhen's prowess in battle is known at home and abroad. He broke the Yellow Turban and defeated Montenegro, and he was invincible in battle. When the Allies attacked Dong, they were called an army of one million. How many people dared to fight? In the end, Dong Zhuo was defeated, and his exploits shook the world. Who is it? It's just Xun Zhenzhi and Sun Wentai. I don't understand such a heroic figure..." Yang Qian cupped his hands in the direction of Donghai County, "Why did Uncle Fang provoke him? "

Zhe Fang was furious and said, "What are you talking about? What is Uncle Fang trying to provoke him? Uncle Fang is the prefect, and Xun Zhenzhi refuses to obey the prefecture's orders. How could it be Uncle Fang's fault?"

Yang Qian snorted and said with a sneer, "I only heard 'one-handed shooting, although it is silent'!"

"What do you mean? Could it be because Xun Zhenzhi was so aggressive that Uncle Fang had to give in step by step? Give up the entire Xuzhou to him?" Chu Fang was extremely annoyed, he turned to Chu Rong and saluted, and said loudly, "Yang Qian has a thief's heart and speaks. If you speak rebellious words, please let the ruler of the government stand and cut it!"

Yang Qian ignored him and Zhe Rong's reaction. He sat back on the seat by himself, raised his head, and looked out the door.

Zhe Rong really wanted to kill Yang Qian, but now the situation is critical. Yang Qian is from a famous clan in this county. If he kills him, it will definitely lead to more turmoil in the county, which will only make the situation in the county worse. Therefore, he has to bear his breath. , as long as the request from the custodian has not been heard.

Everyone in the hall fell silent, only the resounding snort of Zhe Fang's anger.

After a while, Zhe Rong said to Zan Fang, "You go back and sit down first."

When Zhe Fang sat down, Zhe Rong knew that from the people in the hall, he would definitely not be able to ask any "good strategies" for "dealing with the current situation", so he could only sigh and said, "Forget it, it seems that we can only help each other now. Xiaqiu and Xiaxiang are one of the two places."

At the moment, Zhe Rong wrote down an order for military dispatch and sent it to Zhe Fang and other officers, ordering them to dispatch manpower to help the two counties.

Chu Fang saw the military text, but he had something to say: "Fu Jun, I watched the two military texts, but I transferred half of the defenders in Xiapi County. This..."

"What's wrong with this?"

"The officials are only afraid that this will make the defense of Xiapi County empty."

Hearing these idiots' words, Zhe Rong didn't even bother to get angry.

He said angrily: "Let me ask you, Xiaqiu and Xiaxiang are like a loss, can Xiapi County be able to keep it?"

"...Can't keep it~www.wuxiaspot.com~ But as long as Uncle Fang's reinforcements arrive..."

"When Fang Bo's reinforcements arrive, will Xiapi County still be defenseless?"

If Tao Qian's reinforcements arrive late, and Xiaqiu and Xiaxiang are lost, no matter how many defenders there are in Xiapi County, it will be difficult to support and hold; and if Tao Qian's reinforcements arrive early, then Xiapi County will be unable to support it. Even if the county loses that half of the defenders, it is not impossible to defend.

Zhe Fang thought about it for a while, and it was true. Seeing that Zhe Rong's complexion was not good, he didn't dare to say more, he just responded.

Zhe Rong felt exhausted, waved his hand, and said to everyone in the hall: "Please go back to yourselves and handle the military affairs." He added, "I hope you all work together so that my Xiapi can overcome this difficulty. As long as you pass this level, Uncle Fang will be generous!"

Everyone replied, "Yes." Then they all left the hall.

Seeing everyone disperse, Zhe Rong was really worried. He didn't know when Tao Qian's second batch of reinforcements would arrive. , ordered to send people to the state capital immediately.
