Cao Cao will bring a large number of gold and silver treasures with him at any time to reward his subordinates and invite people to buy their hearts. These gifts are from Liu Biao’s collection for many years. After Jingzhou surrendered, they were all used as Cao Jun’s military resources. Distressed.

But compared with the gold medals, these ten boxes of treasures are worthless. The gold medals are not pure gold, but bronze gilt, which is a kind of material evidence similar to "tiger charms" in the Cao army. There is such a card as Cao Gong personally said to mobilize soldiers. Ma Qianliang is a bit exaggerated, but to ensure his own safety, it is no problem to request assistance from the military and political agencies under Cao Jun.

Liu Yanzhi did not live up to Cao Cao’s good intentions. He came to Jiangling County and found the prefect appointed by Cao Cao. He showed the gold medal and asked him to help find a lame and blind Taoist named Zuo Ci. The prefect naturally cooperated with all his strength and sent a Pegasus to report. Cao Cao.

Cao Cao is supervising the construction of the waterway in Dazhai. There are 300,000 soldiers under his command, and another 200,000 civilians pick up the soil and cut trees to build a city, cut down the trees on the north bank of the Yangtze River, and build water villages on the river. The city is surrounded by small boats. There are twenty-four water gates along the river, and the dry village stretches for three hundred miles. People shout at horses, so it’s so lively. Every night, the water is brightly lit.

The Jiangling messenger arrived at Cao Cao's big account and presented the silk book. Cao Cao was surprised when he read it. He was busy with military affairs and he didn't care much.

Liu Yanzhi and others searched for Zuo Ci in Jiangling, and indeed they had clues. Some people said that half a month ago they had seen a lame and blind Taoist perform medical consultations among the people, but they found the village and Zuo Ci was missing.

...

In Omi County, Ji Yu patrolled the city with a saber in uniform. This is his independent mission since he crossed. According to the defense of the city, he collected food and grass and transported it to the front line of Chibi to support Sun Liu's coalition forces. Although he did not have to fight, it was also heavy and difficult.

The sergeant came to report that there were warships coming from west to east on the river. They were fighting the Soochow flag. Ji Yuqian was shocked. Liu Yanzhi and others were not there. If the Wu army attacked the city, he would have neither warriors nor warships. What to fight.

"Explore again." Ji Yuqian tried to stay calm. Although Soochow’s military strength was far worse than Cao Cao’s, he was more than enough to fight Jinjiang. He was just a mortal, not capable of soaring clouds and mists, not capable of peerless martial arts. Don't panic.

Returning to the horse again, the Soochow Army played the banner of Jiang and Zhou. Ji Yugan read the Three Kingdoms, knowing that it was the second general of Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai under Zhou Yu's account. These two generals are not as famous as Gan Ning, Ling Tong, Cheng Pu, and Huang Gai. Compared to others, in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it belongs to the role of soy sauce, but even such a small role, Ji Yugan can't deal with it.

Returning to the government office, Lord Omiyama called his staff to discuss countermeasures. Although he recruited a group of scholars from the high-ranking households, they were all generalists and did not have any advisers who could really afford the big task. The staff made one suggestion: surrender.

Ji Yuqian didn't blame them. Now there are no soldiers in Jinjiang City. All the previously recruited troops were taken away by Liu Yanzhi. There are only a few hundred old soldiers patrolling the city. The money and food are rich, but no one uses them.

Guan Lu heard that Wu Junbing was approaching the city and hurried to discuss with Ji Yuqian.

Ji Yugan said: "I have my own way. I will send a clipper to notify the party professor and ask him to come to help as soon as possible. We only need to hold on to the city."

Guan Lu said, "Simply speaking, in case we can't find Yanzhi, our soldiers can't defend at all. We either surrender or abandon the city and escape. That's all."

Ji Yugan was displeased, so he mentioned Liu Yanzhi at every turn. Without Zhang butcher, he still didn't eat pigs. Without Liu Yanzhi, I, Ji Yugan, could fight a battle beautifully.

...

There were three thousand Dongwu navy forces coming from the west. There were five boats and hundreds of light warships. They were stationed at the water gate near Jiangxi and sent people to write a letter to urge surrender.

Ji Yugan wrote a reply, saying that Omi had already voted for Uncle Liu, and that he and Soochow were an alliance against Cao, so how could they fight in the same room. At the same time, they ordered the city to rush to produce banners, take out all the silk in the warehouse, cut into long strips and wrap them on bamboo poles, and insert them all over the city.

Jiang Qin Zhoutai's two martial arts let his literate school lieutenant read the letter. Jiang Qin asked the messenger: "Why don't we know about Liu Bei and my master's joint fight against Cao?"

Zhou Tai said: "Omi has returned to Liu Bei, who said I can't come to get it from Soochow?"

This trick didn’t work, and the Eastern Wu army was about to attack the city, but the Second General saw the flags at the head of the city covering the sky and the sun. He was nervous and did not dare to do it. While hesitating, a boat came out of the West Water Gate and rushed upstream like flying. went.

"It must be the report." Jiang Qin laughed. "The banners on the city's head are used to scare people."

Having said that, three warships were sent to chase after them. Not long after, they caught up with the Omi Clipper, but the boatman jumped into the river and disappeared. The Soochow sergeant searched the ship’s contents and smelled the pungent odor. He opened the tarp and saw the wooden box. There was something dark in it, and a line of fire was spreading into the box.

With a loud noise, the Omi ship exploded, and the three Soochow warships nearby were also blown into powder. Jiang Qin Zhoutai had only heard of water wars and fire attacks, and had never seen such powerful explosions. He thought that Omi warlocks could attract When the sky thunder came down, he was so frightened that he could not stand steady.

Ji Yugan appeared on the top of the city and shouted loudly: "The two generals, Jiang Qin Zhoutai, wanted to take me Omi, and asked if Tian Lei in my hand would agree."

After waving the flag, the bed crossbow on the city wall shot a ball of things and exploded in the air, another sky thunder.

The Soochow Army was terrified, no longer willing to fight, Jiang Qin Zhou Tai did not dare to enter the army, nor did he dared to withdraw the army without authorization, and sent a clipper to report Zhou Yu to the prefecture.

Ji Yugan was relieved to see that Wu Jun had retired. What he relied on to win was the wisdom of leading two thousand years. Before that, he collected a large amount of sulfur, charcoal and saltpeter, and made black powder weapons. Gunpowder was first made by alchemists in the Tang Dynasty. Yes, there was no such thing in the Han Dynasty, so the deterrence is extremely powerful.

It’s a pity that Ji Yuqian met two brash men who lacked brains. If they were suspicious, they would have retired. But Jiang Qinzhou Tai was born and didn’t read books. His mind is simple, thinking about the sky and thunder is a **** from heaven. , You must invite the thunder father and the electric mother to display it. It is inconvenient to ask God at night, so it is better to take the opportunity to launch a night attack.

So, the Soochow Army quietly came to Omi City on the third day of the watch, the sergeant landed ashore and erected a ladder to attack the city.

Ji Yuqian was not at ease in his heart. He was leading the sergeant to patrol the city and found that Wu Jun was attacking the city.

The travellers occupied Omi for a short time. From the first day, they consciously collected saltpeter to make weapons. However, there are no saltpeter deposits in the area. They can only be extracted from the corners of old houses and barns with hoarfrost. Exhausted, you can only fight with cold weapons at night.

Ji Yuqian is more than 1.8 meters tall and has excellent physical fitness. He is an excellent mountaineer and fencer. The soldiers of the Soochow Water Sergeant are all southerners. They are short in stature. On weekdays, the ration is just porridge and pickles. He can only occasionally have one or two in battle. A meal of wine and meat not only has little energy, but also has poor night vision due to lack of vitamin A.

Facing this group of soldiers with an average height of about 1.6 meters, Ji Yuqian was like a giant spirit god. He swung a ring knife and chopped melons and vegetables to kill all the Wu Jun who had rushed to the head of the city. The defenders saw their lord taking the lead, yet so brave and morale.

Ji Yugan didn't know how many people he had hacked to death. Adrenaline stimulated him. He couldn't feel fatigue, only excitement. Looking at the densely packed Wu Jun under the city, he loudly encouraged the soldiers: "Hold on, reinforcements are on the way!"

This sentence was purely a spiritual motivation, but the soldiers believed it was true, and Wu Jun was killed and wounded by the rolling woods and rocks.

Seeing that there was no sky thunder, Jiang Qin Zhoutai was determined in his heart and commanded the soldiers to continue to attack the city. They didn't care about the death and injury. They took down Omi City, and Soochow added another county. This was a great battle, and it was worth killing thousands of people.

Fortunately, Wu Jun had few soldiers, so he could only concentrate on attacking from one city wall, and the near river garrison could also concentrate on defense. When the five hundred old army was about to be unable to support it, Guan Lu brought Jianwo camp to reinforcements, and they demolished the houses in the city. , Bringing bricks and tiles to be used as weapons, another mess of smashing, the Wu army's offensive was disintegrated again.

Jiang Qin Zhou Tai is a veteran general. After several attacks, he has figured out the details of the Omi Army. Jiang Qin cheered on the drums. Zhou Tai carried a long knife and led the troops to climb the city. The Dongwu Army was good at water warfare and used rope hooks. , Zhou Tai threw a flying claw up, held the knife in his mouth, crawled up the wall, leaped into the crenel, swung the knife over several veterans, and came straight to Ji Yu.

Ji Yu raised a knife to greet him, and the two fought into a ball, regardless of the outcome.

Although Zhou Tai is not very famous, he is indeed a fierce general. There was a Soochow banquet. Sun Quan asked Zhou Tai to take off his clothes. He pointed to the scars on his body and asked him to tell him his history. He drank a drink of wine at a scar. The drunk was so drunk that Zhou Taizhi was brave.

It was the first time that Ji Yugan had encountered such a powerful opponent. The battle in the Cold Weapon Age relied not only on strength and technology, but also on the determination not to be afraid of death. Zhou Tai drove out his best efforts and wanted to kill Ji Yuqian on the spot, and slashed three times. Coming over, Ji Yugan's tiger's mouth was tingling every time he blocked, he backed a few steps, slipped and fell to the ground.

Zhou Tai raised his sword and shouted: "Success!"

With one shot, Zhou Tai was shot in his arm. The armor couldn’t stop the bullet. He immediately pierced through and the long knife landed. Ji Yugan took the opportunity to avoid him. Wu Jun rescued Zhou Tai and wanted to continue the attack. Several more shots came in after another. Wu Jun, who was at the forefront, was either dead or injured, and this wave of offensive was defeated.

It was Guan Lu who shot the gun. She was shaking with the smoking pistol.

The traversers brought a large amount of arms, but only for self-defense, not for war. They really used it to conquer the world, and this light weapon was not enough.

Zhou Tai was wounded and retreated to the city to bandage his wounds. A group of Wu soldiers put up shields to cover the main general to prevent hidden arrows. On the city, Ji Yugan took a rifle, but could not find the target. He could only kill a few sergeants who held the flag. , Kill Wu Jun's spirit.

"Wu Jun has 3,000 people. We also have a box of grenades, 100 rifle bullets, and 30 pistol bullets." Ji Yu said dryly, "Do you think you can withstand the attack?"

"If they are not afraid of death, they can't stand it." Guan Lu said.

The corpses were all over the city, and the combat effectiveness of the five hundred old army was low. It was okay to throw the rolling woods and stones to hit people. They couldn't beat Wu Jun in a hand-to-hand combat. Now that the arrows are exhausted, the defenders have lost more than half. If they continue to fight, they will undoubtedly lose.

"Or let's flee." Guan Lu was not sure, and Liu Yanzhi was not there. Their advantage was not enough to resist the entire army.

Ji Yu said: "Where to flee~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Wu Jun has already figured out our bottom line. We have sent men and horses to block the water and land routes. We are preventing us from breaking through. Today we can only coexist and die with Omi City. "

Wu Jun under the city began to make noise again, and Ji Yugan took out a grenade to pull out the insurance pin and threw it down, suddenly quiet.

It was so stalemate until dawn, and the cold wind on the top of the city, the soldiers saw another brigade of ships arriving to the west, and said in shock: "The big thing is not good, Wu Jun reinforcements have arrived."

Guan Lu was desperate: "It's dead this time."

Ji Yuqian is still in the mood to joking: "That's not necessarily. If it's Zhou Yu, and seeing you look prettier than Xiao Qiao, maybe he won't kill you, but will marry you and go home."

Guan Lu said, "I would rather come to Cao Cao, take me back to be mated to the great talented Cao Zhi, and then take off the brocade robe and put it on you, to subdue you as a tiger general, neither of us will die."

Ji Yu laughed dryly. Suddenly saw Wu Jun commotion under the city, he felt bad. When I looked at the warship in the distance, it seemed that the flag was not like Wu Jun. I took out a miniature telescope and looked over. I saw a general on the bow, white robe silver armor, sword eyebrow star. At the head, behind him, I recognize the big "Zhao" character on the flag.
