Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 265 Leave

   "Guo Duwei led the army out of the west gate?!" Zheng Jue stared at the soldiers in front of him, a little in disbelief, "What can you say?"

   "Reporting to the customs order, Guo Duwei said that he received the military order from Guo Zhonglang."

   Zheng Chuan nodded, waved his hands to let the soldiers go down, and after a moment of silence, he smiled slightly, "Guo Zhonglang's military order? Hehe..."

  Zheng Cui stroked his beard, shook his head, and after pondering for a while, he called loudly: "Chen Jun is waiting to see you."

Guo Pu led the army out this time, taking away 800 Xiliang cavalry, and 600 main soldiers who were stationed here before, and mobilized 300 auxiliary soldiers. Thousands of yellow scarves, if they fight head-on, they will be crushed...

  But isn’t it…

   Zheng Chu sneered twice, and sat in the hall, waiting for Chen Junhou who was guarding the east wall.

  I don’t know when a cloud floated in the sky, covering the sun and the light from the hall, and the whole hall dimmed in a blink of an eye, as if it had been painted with a layer of gray.

  Chen Junhou came soon. After meeting Li, Zheng Chu asked in a low voice: "Is everything you have prepared...is it complete?"

   Chen Junhou crossed his hands, also lowered his voice, and said: "The shipment was halfway the day before yesterday, which coincided with Guo Duwei's inspection, so it couldn't be shipped to the pass..."

  Zheng Ju nodded and said: "It's okay, Captain Guo has already left the pass, call for some manpower tonight, and transport them all to the pass!"

   "Wei!" Chen Junhou agreed, and then said: "...but there are quite a lot of them, and it may be difficult to store them on the Wangqi platform, and the chicken crowing platform..."

  The defenders on the Jiming Terrace are guarded by a team of the Xiliang Army. If you want to transport from the Wangqi Tower to the pass, you must pass under the nose of the Jiming Terrace.

   Zheng Chu pondered for a while, and said: "You don't need to worry about this matter, I have my own arrangements."

Then Zheng Chu took out five small gold ingots and ten strings of five baht coins from a box next to him, and pushed them together in front of Chen Junhou, "One person at the Wangqi platform can grant a hundred coins, but you must be more strict! For the rest of you, please go to entertain Li Junhou..."

   Chen Junhou responded one by one, put the money in his arms and put it away, and then left.

  Zheng Ju stroked his beard and sighed in his heart, if it weren't for the fact that Hangu Pass hadn't had a war for a long time, so some supplies were only in the minimum quantity, which was not enough, otherwise why would he try to transport them?

  But now that Captain Guo is not in the pass, I can let go of my hands and feet. The key is that there are still some soldiers in Xiliang...

  By the way, there are also the fifty or sixty main and auxiliary soldiers of Zhu Zi...

  ×××××××××××××××

Guo Pu sat on the horse, and following the ups and downs of the horse, he shook his head slightly, thinking, the more he thought about it, the more proud he was. If the siege of Xin'an was rescued by his own hands, he would have to raise it anyway. Besides, Dong Xiangguo I have never been stingy with my own people. If I can be in the battle, I can kill a yellow scarf leader or something, hahaha...

Thinking of what he was proud of, Guo Pu couldn't help laughing immediately, and then shouted loudly: "Boys! Go ahead and go to the camp twenty miles ahead! After the enemy is defeated tomorrow, every jar of fine wine will Just a sheep, eat enough! Have a three-day holiday!"

   "Oh oh oh..." Xiliang soldiers suddenly cheered loudly, and all of them applauded and moved forward.

It’s just a pity that the infantry at Hangu Pass, who had been with the cavalry today and ate up the dust all day, now have to rush forward. Although the temptation of wine and meat is indeed good, the exhaustion of the human body is Those who couldn't get rid of it, agreed sparingly, then gritted their teeth and ran desperately.

Originally marching normally, with a mix of infantry and cavalry, the speed of the march was not based on the speed of the slowest unit, that is, the speed of the baggage cart, but this time because Hangu Pass is not far from Xin'an, even if it is based Calculated by the speed of the baggage cart, it would take at most three days, so Guo Pu did not bring much food and grass at all, and was going to eat directly in the city after breaking through the siege of Xin'an, so the marching team was much lighter.

  However, it is inevitable to rush to finish the original three-day journey in two days, and this will increase the physical consumption of soldiers and horses, which is not good for combat.

But Guo Pu didn't take this to heart at all. In his opinion, the Yellow Turban Thieves just used sticks and sickles to frighten people by relying on the number of people. , and then cut the general to capture the flag, nine out of ten it will collapse like an ant's nest...

   Isn't it just to consume more energy, it's not a big deal!

  Guo Pu planned to send someone to get in touch with his brother as soon as possible after winning the battle...

  ×××××××××××

  At this moment in Xin'an County, the magistrate of Xin'an carefully pulled the head of the city, looking at the camp of the Yellow Turban Army outside the city, frowning, with a rather tangled expression...

   Really gone?

   Could it be that you are planning to attack while I open the city gate?

  But if I really leave, and I don’t open the city gate for a long time, I will inevitably be ridiculed by others in the future for my cowardice...

  What should I do now?

  Xin’an County Magistrate hesitated again and again, and finally decided to hang a person down to see, so he ordered a soldier to sit in a hanging basket and slowly lower it from the top of the city...

  All eyes on the city wall of Xin'an County were focused on this soldier. He bowed his waist, stopped a few steps, and slowly approached the camp of the Yellow Turban Army...

   It was getting closer and closer. The lonely soldier was not under any attack, and gradually became bolder. He ran forward a few steps, reached the wall of the camp, and touched the camp gate...

   Then I saw the soldier poking his head into the camp for a few glances, then walked in slowly...

  For a moment, everyone subconsciously held their breath and stared with wide eyes.

   It seemed as if a long, long time had passed, and the soldier stumbled and ran out, waving his hands in a panic while running, and shouting something...

  Xin’an County Magistrate was shocked, grabbed the city wall tightly, and blurted out: "It's been tricked! Hurry, hurry..." Before he could say what was coming, the voice of the running lone hero came from afar—

   "No...no one...empty...all...all gone..."

Uh?

  There was joy on the top of the city, and then it was quickly passed to the inside of the city. Immediately, people inside and outside Xin'an were buzzing with joy...

The county magistrate of Xin'an saw that everyone around him was overjoyed, as if no one heard what he said just now, he coughed, straightened up, put his hands behind his back, hummed twice, and said: "The thief has been repelled by us! Dispatch report! Open the city gate!"

   Liu Bei: "The policy has been relaxed, why do many people still have opinions on me?"

   Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "That's because the lord didn't prescribe the right medicine."

   Liu Bei pondered...

   Comrade Xiao Zhi did not come to work the next day.
