The Nameless of the Common Clans

Outside Anyi City, a large number of soldiers with yellow scarves wiping their foreheads gathered. They did not surround them on all sides. They just gathered and set up camp outside the west city. Further away, cavalry could be seen cruising around.

Compared with the Yellow Turban Army back then, although today's Yellow Turbans have lost the momentum they had back then, they are more like an army.

"Mr. Boru, there are only 800 county soldiers in the city now. If the thieves come to attack, how can we defend it?" The chief secretary of Hedong said bitterly as he looked at Wei Jian.

"Eight hundred?" Wei Ju glanced at the other party and reassured: "Don't worry, the Wei family will organize servants to defend the city. In addition, please arrange for people to recruit more soldiers in the city as soon as possible. The Wei family will pay half of the required expenses." ”

Although Mrs. Guo is a bandit, she is more than just a bandit. It is nonsense to say that they have nothing to do with the Baibo bandits. The Wei family's business is spread all over the world, but the northern states and counties have eyes and ears. Otherwise, Mrs. Guo will Thousands of soldiers and horses gathered together, and the logistics alone would make Guo Tai worried to death.

"This treasury matter requires the prefect..." The chief secretary was a little embarrassed. There is naturally a grain warehouse in Hedong, but this place cannot be opened randomly. In the past, he might not have cared about it, but now Chen Mo has actually controlled almost the entire Hedong. He Can you not care?

"In an emergency, please don't talk to me about the laws of the country. If the city of Anyi is destroyed, everything will be lost, including your life and mine." Wei Jian glanced at the chief secretary and said: "If the king is blamed by then, what will be used this time?" My Wei family will make up for the food and grass.”

"Okay!" The chief bookkeeper was relieved when he heard this. If the Wei family is willing to fill the vacancy, then the account books will be matched. Then Chen Mo is not an easy master to fool.

Wei Jian didn't care about the small thoughts of the master. He ordered the servants of the Wei family to pick up weapons and go to the city to help defend. At the same time, he observed the Yellow Turban bandit camp. The other party was obviously afraid of a surprise attack in the city. Those Huns cavalry were cruising around. Once in the city at this moment, If they send troops, the Huns cavalry can attack immediately and cut off their return.

Seeing that the opponent was so energetic, Wei Zhi also gave up the idea of ​​sneak attack while his foothold was not stable. From the Yellow Turban Rebellion to the present, the Yellow Turban thieves who could survive the imperial encirclement and suppression were no longer unfamiliar with war, although they were outnumbered. Back then, in terms of combat power and use of military formations, these Yellow Turban thieves were no longer the same as they were back then.

Now, Wei Ji could only place his hope on Chen Mo and try his best to delay time with Mrs. Guo.

There was no words for a night, and people in Anyi were panicked. The Yellow Turbans besieged the city. Even when the Yellow Turban thieves were at their worst, they never reached Anyi. The fear of war is innate.

Early the next morning, Mrs. Guo led his troops to call for formation outside the city. Wei Jian thought for a while and sent people to go down to the city in hanging baskets. When he came to the formation, he said loudly: "My family's head sent down to ask the leader. In the past, my Wei family and I The general also has dealings with me and has never treated me badly. How can I invade Anyi today?"

Guo Taisheng was fair and his appearance did not look like a gangster. Instead, he had a sense of elegance. Seeing that the gate of Anyi city was closed, he immediately came out and said with a smile: "Tell Brother Boru, we have no choice. Now in Hedong, there is only Anyi." A city was left untouched Chen Mo knows that our troops are exhausted, our horses are exhausted, and we have no food and grass. We have no choice but to come here to seek refuge with Brother Boru. As long as Brother Boru is willing to open the city to accept us, you tell Brother Boru that I can promise him that in Anyi Biqiu has no fault!"

After the soldiers who were sent took notes, they hurried back to the city, sat on a hanging basket and went up to the city, roughly speaking what Guo Tai had said.

"Tell him, I am not the governor of Hedong, and I have no control over this matter. If he really intends to surrender to the Han Dynasty, I can recommend him to the envoy." Wei Jian shook his head, not to mention whether he had this right, even if he did not consider this , if he accepts Mrs. Guo, will Chen Mo treat him as a member of Mrs. Guo's gang and deal with him? And now there is only Anyi city, which cannot support so many soldiers and horses.

The soldier went down to the city again to convey the guard's intention.

"Does that mean you're going to kill me?" Upon hearing this, Mrs. Guo sneered. Without waiting for the soldier's reply, she suddenly threw the spear in her hand and pierced the soldier's body.

He reined his horse forward, slowly came to the front of the formation, stretched out his hand to grab the shaft of the spear, looked in the direction of the city wall and said, "Attack the city!"

Last time, Mrs. Guo defeated Chunyu Qiong's three men. He took away all the supplies and food in the army. Mrs. Guo was not short of siege weapons. One after another, rams began to slowly push toward the city gate. The archers followed closely behind, and the army slowly spread out towards the city.

Wei Jian's face was a bit ugly. The two countries were fighting but he did not kill the envoy. What Mrs. Guo did was a violation of the rules. Once defeated, the outcome would not be good. Similarly, if the city on Wei Jian's side was destroyed, there would be no consequences. What a good ending.

"Prepare for war!" Wei Jian waved his hand. The matter had come to this, there was no way out, he could only fight!

After the icy arrow rain briefly met in the air, they began to fall towards the city head and the Yellow Turban formation respectively. The ladders slowly approached the city driven by the Yellow Turban Army.

Wei Jian ordered people to pour the boiling oil that had been prepared on the ladders. The soldiers who were climbing up kept screaming and falling down. Wei Jian also asked people to throw the torches down. More than a dozen ladders were soon occupied. The flames devoured and burned, but the attack from the rear continued. The chariot had already reached the city gate and began to hit the city gate continuously. Wei Jian had already ordered people to block the city gate with debris. For a while, he wanted to pass the city gate by hitting it. It is obviously impossible to break the city from the door.

At this moment, a siren suddenly sounded in the direction of Nancheng. This was a signal of an attack. Guo Tai had the advantage in strength and could not only fight around one city gate. The battle started here, and the soldiers and horses were ready there. Under the command of the thief general, they launched an attack, hoping to seize the opportunity to seize the south gate.

Wei Jian was not in a hurry. He had thought of this a long time ago and immediately ordered the Wei family servants who were on standby in the city to go to the city to resist. However, compared to the well-prepared Dongcheng, the defense of Nancheng was much weaker and was frequently attacked. The rebels attacked the city and a fierce battle broke out. Wei Jian had no choice but to send another group of troops to defend the city. Only then did he stabilize the situation in the south city. However, as the fire oil ran out in the west city and new ladders were put up, they were no longer able to stop them. We can only hold on.

The two sides fought hand to hand, and the two sides fought fiercely. Even Wei Qian did not hesitate to go into battle with his sword to kill the enemy. Only then did he stabilize the situation. At this time, another siren sounded in the direction of Beicheng.

Wei Jian ordered the other two teams in the city to immediately defend the city.

A battle was fought from early morning to dusk. Guo Tai saw that the number of troops in the city seemed endless, and he was not sure how many soldiers and horses there were in Anyi. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, after nightfall, whether he was attacking or defending the city, , were even more difficult. Mrs. Guo, who did not want to suffer too many losses, had to pay the money and withdraw her troops. However, as far as Anyi was concerned, it was the best news that the opponent did not defeat him in a single battle.

"Master, we have lost a lot of our servants. More than two hundred people were killed in the battle, and there are countless injured." An elder of the Wei family came to Wei Qian and said worriedly.

The servants of the Wei family have never seen war before. This time, they relied on the convenience of defending the city. If they were not on the city, they would have been defeated by others.

Don't laugh at the casualties of more than 200 people. If this was fought outside the city, given the quality of the servants of the Wei family, they would have been defeated long ago and fled in confusion.

"Invite all the doctors and craftsmen in the city. Those who can be saved must be rescued. Those who cannot be saved, their families will be given more compensation so that they can leave with peace of mind." Wei Jian sighed, this is also for the living. The servant is an example. At this time, you can't be stingy with money.

Originally, the military strength and combat power were not as good as others. If morale was also lost, it would be better to just open the city and surrender.

"Let's do it now." The clan elder agreed, turned and left.

Wei Jian stood at the top of the city, looking at the camp in the distance, but wondering in his heart how much food and grass the other party had. If there was no food and Chen Mo couldn't be shaken, why didn't he escape from Hanoi? It means that the other party's food and grass are at least enough. How much food and grass were robbed by Chun Yuqiong and the others last time?

If the other party has enough food and grass, how many days can Anyi last?

Chen Mo... I hope you can stop it, otherwise even if you get Hedong, it will only be a broken Hedong.

…

On the other side, at Chen Mo's camp, Wei Yuan looked at the polite Chen Mo in front of him and felt a little irritated. How could this fifteen-year-old boy be so able to calm down while pouring wine?

"Your Majesty!" Wei Yuan licked his lips, looked at Chen Mo and said, "When I came down, I saw traces of the Yellow Turban Thief. I'm afraid they are coming to Anyi. Please keep the overall situation in mind."

"Sir, don't be anxious." Chen Mo said with a smile: "Don't look at the many soldiers recruited now, but most of them are just civilian warriors. It's okay to let them wave the flag and shout, but if they go into battle to kill the enemy, I'm afraid most of them will die in vain. An The safety of the city is important, but these soldiers were recruited from various cities. I can't exchange their lives for the lives of others. "

"Your Majesty!" Wei Yuan stood up and looked at Chen Mo dissatisfied, but was glared at by Dian Wei on the side. He knelt down silently again, took a deep breath and clasped his fists and said: "These are the things my Wei family has done in Yan." According to calculations, we have enough land in Jian, Sangquan, Xie County, and some of the Yi family's land. In addition, we also have a property deed in Luoyang, which is worth a lot of money."

"That's not the problem." Chen Mo knocked on the table, pointed at Dian Wei and said: "We are sent out according to the imperial edict. We have the right to recruit, but we don't have the money to recruit. Since Mr. Boru asked you to bring these, you should Knowing that I am in short supply now, Mo is very grateful for this kindness, but the newly recruited soldiers also need more money and food to support them. If Brother Boru really wants to do this... he will have to add more money."

"Don't deceive others...it's too much!" Wei Yuan slapped the table, and Dian Wei silently picked up his new iron halberd. After all, he still didn't stand up, and his voice dropped at the last two words.

"Sir, don't bully me." Chen Mo looked at Wei Yuan and smiled and said, "As far as I know, most of the land outside Anyi City is owned by the Wei family. In addition, from Sangquan to Yanjian to Wenxi, the Wei family spent two days More than a million, Hedong is such a big place, and the Wei family has tens of thousands of tenant farmers. Although I am the governor of Hedong, most of the people in Hedong still want to listen to the Wei family. How can I feel at ease? "

"Sir, take these land deeds back. With the ability of the Wei family and the benefit of Anyi City, they should be able to keep them for a while. Please come to me again, Mr. Boru, to think of a solution that has both ends." Chen Mo stood up and said: "Dian Wei, see you off!”

"Here!" Dian Wei took a step forward and said to Wei Yuan, "Sir, please!"

"Your Majesty, we can talk more..." Wei Yuan was a little unwilling to give up. What Wei Ji gave him was not just these. He originally thought that these were enough, but now it seems that he has messed up the matter.

"No need, when the Wei family shows sincerity, I will have a strategy to defeat the enemy. Let's go back." Chen Mo had already walked to the back hall, and his voice came from far away.

Wei Yuan sighed and had to leave under the escort of Dian Wei.
