Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 330 Entering the City Alone
Just as Han Sui gave the order, he suddenly heard the battle report outside the north gate from outside the hall.

"Report...a report to General Hussars that all the soldiers and horses who went to outflank the north gate were wiped out...the general Cheng Yin was killed!"

"What!" Han Sui was shocked when he heard the words, "How could they be defeated so quickly? How is the battle at the North City Gate? Did Liang Xing take the opportunity to attack the city defense?"

Han Sui thought that Liang Xing and Yang Qiu were forming formations inside the north gate, and Cheng Yin's soldiers were outflanking the city. Once Ma Teng led his troops out of the city to fight, he would be attacked by Liang Xing in the city.

But the captain who came to send the information shook his head and replied: "The North City Gate is still in the hands of Ma Teng, and the person who killed Cheng Yin before the battle seems to be... Zhongshan King Liu Yu!"

Hearing this was the result, Han Sui showed a serious expression on his face.

What is Liu Yu?Didn't he go to the southwest to deliver food? Why did he come back so soon?

Could it be that he returned with Niu Fu?
Thinking of Liu Yu's extraordinary force and ability to command troops, if he joined forces with Xiliang Army, it would definitely pose a great threat to Luoyang's defense.

Wang Yun and others also showed puzzled expressions when they heard Liu Yu's name, because Liu Yu was a core member of their royalist faction, how could he help the Xiliang faction to counterattack Luoyang.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, there were no telephones and internet, and the transmission of news was very slow. Moreover, Liu Yu also specially ordered to block the news around Luoyang, so the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty still do not know that the soldiers and horses that besieged Luoyang were Liu Yu’s Habayashi Army. .

At this moment, Han Sui seemed to think of something suddenly. Liu Yu's wife was still in Luoyang City. As long as she was captured, she would be used as a threat, and even Liu Yu could be used by him. Thinking of this, he hurriedly asked Yan Xing.

"Just now Yanming led his troops to confiscate Liu's mansion, did he gain anything?"

Yan Xing replied with a look of embarrassment: "Then Liu Yu's family left a large number of guards, and the general finally killed them all. When he was about to rush into the backyard, he heard the summons from the court, so... he turned back. "

Hearing that Yan Xing failed to rush into the backyard of Liu's mansion, so it was impossible to catch Liu Yu's wife, Han Sui hurriedly ordered him to take someone to the alley in the south of the city immediately.

This time, it is not for the inheritance of Liu's mansion, but Liu Yu's wife must be caught.

Immediately after receiving the order, Yan Xing selected five hundred elites to rush to the south of the city.

Inside the Golden Palace, discussions continued on how to deal with the siege of the city. In less than half an hour, the sound of fighting at the north gate of Luoyang spread to the imperial city.

"It must be Ma Teng leading the troops to charge, quickly ask Cheng Yi to lead the troops to help!"

Han Sui ordered reinforcements to be dispatched, but it didn't take long for news of Liang Xing's defeat and Yang Qiu's killing to come back, and even Cheng Yi's reinforcements also retreated back to the imperial city.

After half a day's effort, two generals were defeated in a row, and the camp at the north gate was lost. This made Han Sui very angry.

Liang Xing, the general of the defeated army, hastily explained that the defeat was due to the Feixiong army's rebellion before the battle, and most of the reinforcements brought by Chengyi were soldiers of the Feixiong army. Tao persuades Cheng Yi to leave together temporarily.

When Han Sui heard that Ma Teng erected the Feixiong flag in the city, and bought people's hearts with white paper to recruit many soldiers from the original Feixiong army, he couldn't sit still anymore.

Among the guards in the city, the Feixiong Army accounted for more than half, but there were only 2 soldiers who were absolutely loyal to him.

If there is a large-scale defection and mutiny in the city, the loopholes in the north gate will become bigger and bigger. When the soldiers and horses attacking outside the city join forces with Ma Teng, the whole of Luoyang will be destroyed, and he, a hussar, It is also difficult for the general to sit firmly in the Chongde Hall.

Thinking of this, Han Sui hurriedly asked military adviser Cheng Gongying for advice.

Fortunately, Cheng Gongying still has some ideas. He first suggested that Han Sui's old men go to the north gate to plug the loophole.

Then he arranged for the old Liu Chengyi of the "Banner Eight Riders" to convey the latest reward policy to the Feixiong Army who surrendered.

Anyone who kills an enemy soldier outside the city will be rewarded with a hundred dollars.In order to stabilize the morale of the army.

However, there are various uncertainties in Cheng Gongying's reward policy. For example, no one can accurately count how many soldiers killed on the battlefield.

Cheng Gongying himself said that this reward is only to stimulate the soldiers to fight bravely. Is there a brave man under a heavy reward? But it will be discussed later when the settlement is made.

It's just that Cheng Gongying's little trick can only succeed for a while, once the soldiers find out that something is wrong, it will definitely cause a bigger mutiny.

……

After defeating Liang Xing's trilogy, Liu Yu was about to enter the city.

Ma Teng and Zhang Liao wanted to dissuade them. After all, the city was still under Han Sui's control, and it was very dangerous for Liu Yu to choose to enter the city alone.

"The city is dangerous, and the general is willing to take a thousand Yulin soldiers with him!"

"Yes, King Zhongshan, I also want to lead troops to protect it!"

Both Zhang Liao and Ma Teng wanted to lead troops to protect Liu Yu, but Liu Yu firmly opposed it.

The commotion of 1000 people entering the alley in the south of the city was really too loud. Not only would they not be able to rescue the people in Liu's residence, but they might also attract more enemy soldiers.

At that time, let alone saving people, I am afraid that the 1000 people who went with them will also be trapped in the city to death.

"The target is small for me alone, and I can avoid the search in the city as long as I pay a little attention. However, Wenyuan needs to make more arrangements near the north gate."

Liu Yu pointed to the direction where Liang Xing had garrisoned troops. There was a large area of ​​residential buildings there, but because they were avoiding the chaos of the war, they were already empty.

Zhang Liao watched for a while, and soon understood Liu Yu's deep meaning.

"My lord, don't worry, I'll arrange for people to sneak in and hide."

Liu Yu went to the city to save his family and leave, so he had to ensure that he could pass through the streets here when he came back.

But Han Sui at the north gate will definitely send troops to block him again, so how to deal with the incoming enemy soldiers and open up the return route for Liu Yu is more important than entering the city with him.

At this time, Ma Teng once again proposed to lead the army directly to the alley in the south of the city for safety reasons.

After hearing this, Liu Yu shook his head. It was already dark and it took a long time to gather troops from the other three sects. It is very likely that Han Sui's second wave of guards arrived before the troops were assembled.

The white paper in the system supermarket was all bought out and the five-element coins were almost spent. Liu Yu had no better way to outwit and deal with the second wave of enemies.

The enemy can only rely on force to push again, but in that way, it is even more uncertain when they will be able to kill the alley in the south of the city.

And in order not to bring unprovoked disasters to the people, Liu Yu didn't really want to kill people in the city.

After persuading Ma Teng and Zhang Liao, Liu Yu hid in the darkness.

From the north gate to the south of the city, there are countless roads that can be passed through, such as crossing the East Market or West Market, or walking through any alleys of private houses.

The streets in the eastern and western cities are the most spacious, but the shops along the streets were closed for a long time during the war, and there also became the route for soldiers in the city to be mobilized, so Liu Yu could only choose to take the side road.

After a gallop, when Liu Yu was about to reach the alley in the south of the city, he saw Yan Xing leading troops to search the area.
