Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong!

Under Chaoge City, the Eastern Han coalition formed by Yuan Shao and Geng Yan roared the drums of war, and the momentum was shaken by the earth. The pigs and wolves ran around in Taihang Mountain, shocking hundreds of thousands of flying birds.

The Eastern Han coalition swept across Hebei, and countless princes were wiped out by the Eastern Han coalition. Even Sun Ce's arrogance was suppressed by the Eastern Han coalition.

Yuan Shao was a minister of the Eastern Han Dynasty and had no psychological burden. He defected to the Eastern Han army and became a general who went south.

"It's so powerful that the camp is a hundred miles long. If Emperor Guangwu comes in person, we can only bow down and give in and have no chance of winning."

Zhou Yu had a feathered fan and a scarf, and was so majestic, but he thought it was hard to match Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu.

Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu was the son of luck. Zhou Yu had a chance of winning unless he fought against Zhou Yu in the Yangtze River.

But this is the north, and Zhou Yu's advantages are difficult to exert.

Under the protection of Yan Liang and Wen Chou, Yuan Shao came to the city and persuaded Sun Ce to surrender: "Sun Bofu, you and I are both ministers at the end of the Han Dynasty. Why didn't you open the city gate and surrender? Could it be that you would give up until Your Majesty personally commanded the expedition and was killed by Your Majesty?"

Sun Ce's face was gloomy and clear.

Sun Ce also thought it was difficult to compete with Yuan Shao and Geng Yan.

However, Sun Ce also found a backer, so he might not be afraid of Yuan Shao.

What's more, Sun Ce is also a proud person.

Geng Yan was called the Little Han Xin of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and Sun Ce was also the Little Overlord of Jiangdong after all!

Han Xin and Xiang Yu of the Eastern Han Dynasty fought again in Chaoge City.

Sun Ce scolded: "Unless Your Majesty personally fights, I will surrender again, but you, Yuan Shao, cannot do it!"

"court death!"

Yuan Shao was furious when he saw Sun Ce despising him.

Before receiving the help of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, Yuan Shao was indeed defeated by Sun Ce.

Yuan Shao was defeated by Cao Cao, Sun Ce and other heroes of the same dynasty, and felt deeply disgraceful.

"Don't be upset about this. You besiege this city and divide your troops to occupy various towns in Hanoi. Within half a year, no matter whether Sun Ce leaves the city or not, he will definitely be defeated."

Geng Yan besieged Sun Ce with a large army. At the same time, he dispatched military generals and sent troops to capture other towns of Sun Ce's power, annexed Sun Ce's population, and isolated Chaoge City.

In Heyang City north of the Yellow River, Zhuge Ke and Lu Fan were ordered to lead 20,000 troops to defend the city.

If Sun Ce wants to obtain Zhang Hua’s reinforcements, he must defend Heyang City.

Heyang City is located north of the Yellow River and is the only place for Heluo to enter Henoi.

If this city is lost, it will be even more difficult for Zhang Hua to send troops to rescue Sun Ce.

Zhuge Ke was ordered to be in danger, but did not dare to neglect it. He cleared the wilderness and firmed the walls, and at the same time deployed the navy in the sandbank in the river.

"The lord attaches great importance to me so much that he cannot lose his reputation as his father and uncle."

Zhuge Ke felt much pressure.

He is the son of Zhuge Jin and a famous uncle like Zhuge Liang, so Zhuge Ke also hopes to make a name for himself and become famous.

Ju Su and Tian Feng also knew the importance of Heyang City, so he suggested to Yuan Shao to divide his troops to conquer Heyang City.

So Yuan Shao and Geng Yan sent a group of troops to bypass Chaoge City and attack Heyang City.

Opposite Heyang City is Xiacheng.

Hanoi was attacked by the Eastern Han coalition forces. Xiacheng, who received the news, was panicked and repeatedly asked Fan Zhongyan for emergency.

If the cities in Hanoi were captured by the Eastern Han coalition, Yuan Shao and Geng Yan would likely carry the power of victory, cross the river directly, attack Xiacheng, and sweep Heluo.

"You lead the navy and support Heyang City."

Fan Zhongyan occupied Xingyang and ordered Zhang Huangyan to lead the Xia Navy to support Zhuge Ke in Heyang City.

Fan Zhongyan was not very relieved.

Zhuge Ke is prone to being arrogant. If the Eastern Han coalition forces instigate Zhuge Ke from the city to fight, then Zhuge Ke will undoubtedly be defeated.

Fan Zhongyan knew Zhuge Ke's weakness, so he sent reinforcements to slow down the pace of Nurhaci's forces and turn the focus into Hebei.

"Emperor Guangwu and the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai are not easy to deal with. But how can the lord take me in when I am in danger? How can I not repay my kindness?"

Zhang Huangyan did train a Nanming Navy in Mengjin during this period, but he could support Zhuge Ke in Heyang City.

"I'll go with Zhang Cangshui, you guard Xingyang City."

Li Ji thought that Zhang Huangyan could not save Heyang City yet, so he decided to go there in person.

The Eastern Han coalition forces launched a large-scale attack on Chaoge City and Heyang City, causing turmoil in the Central Plains. The strategies of the various princes were adjusted as a result, and a large number of troops gathered towards Chaoge City and Heyang City.

Yuan Shao's forward has bypassed Chaoge City and drunk the horses of the Yellow River!

Yuan Shao sent Yuan Tan and Geng Yan sent Zang Gong to jointly attack Yangcheng.

Forty thousand Eastern Han coalition troops arrived at Heyang City, Zang Palace made people erect thousands of flags, climbing the mountain and making noise, and the momentum was like a rainbow!

Zang Gong is also one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai. Wu Yong is as famous as Ma Wu. He whirled his sword and slapped his palm and sang Yiwu!

The 200,000 troops of the Eastern Han Dynasty went south, destroying the tyranny of the cities and towns of Sun Ce's forces descended, leaving only Chaoge and Heyang, two cities, which were in a difficult situation.

The lord behind the Eastern Han army was Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, the legendary son of the plane, the civil servants and generals after the Han Dynasty, and the common people. They all heard of Emperor Guangwu's reputation and dared not be enemies with the Eastern Han army, so they surrendered one after another.

Only a hero like Sun Ce dared to resist the army of the Eastern Han Dynasty head-on.

Therefore, Yuan Tan and Zang Gong's army were in full swing and wanted to conquer Heyang in one fell swoop.

Lv Fan climbed the city to watch Yuan Tan, and Zang Gong's military power was terrified: "With the sandstorm and movement outside the city, the soldiers outside the city may not be less than 80,000. Geng Yan is worthy of being the reincarnation of Han Xin. While besieging Chaoge City, he could also send 80,000 troops south to attack Heyang City."

Zhuge Ke watched the opponent's military formation, but shook his head repeatedly: "This is an enemy general's mysterious plan. The actual force should be half-folded above the number you estimate."

"You mean there are only 40,000 people outside the city?"

Lu Fan looked at Zhuge Jin's son and knew that this son's mind was indeed not simple.

Among the second generation of military generals of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Zhen, Zhuge Ke and others were all considered to be considered very good. You should know that even Zhao Yun's son Zhao Guang and Zhuge Liang's son Zhuge Zhan did not have the achievements of Cao Zhen and Zhuge Ke.

As long as Zhuge Ke does not get sick, Zhuge Ke's strategy will be one of the best, and he can see through Zang Gong, one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, at a glance the suspicious plan of the military.

"To the soldiers in the city, this is a suspicious plan for the enemy generals. There are actually only 20,000 enemy soldiers outside the city. The reinforcements from Heluo are coming soon. The siege of Heyang will be resolved soon, so there is no need to worry."

Zhuge Ke also began to use his plan, deliberately reducing Zang Gong's military strength by half, hoping to quench his thirst and soothe the morale of the army.

"Zhuge Ke, since you are a Han minister, now that the Han army is here, why not surrender?"

Yuan Tan came forward and wanted to recruit Zhuge Ke directly to avoid losses caused by siege.

Zhuge Ke scolded sternly: "Fuck, when I was born, the Emperor of Han was held hostage by the thief of Cao and died in name only. I serve Sun Quan and am a minister of Wu!"

“…”

Yuan Tan was refuted by Zhuge Ke and was speechless because Zhuge Ke was telling the truth.

Zhuge Ke was proud and would not surrender easily. This is why Sun Ce asked Zhuge Ke to guard the important Heyang City and preserve the city bordering Heluo.

Zang Gong used the trick of suspicious soldiers to strengthen his momentum. He originally thought that he could capture Heyang City without any effort, but Zhuge Ke saw through the trick of suspicious soldiers. Zhuge Ke refused to surrender. Zang Gong could only prepare the siege equipment with Yuan Tan and attack Heyang City forcibly.

Zhuge Ke had already dismantled the houses outside the city in advance and did not obtain the raw materials for Zang Gong and Yuan Tan to manufacture siege equipment. Zang Gong could only send troops to nearby trees to collect wood and stone.

Zhuge Ke cleared the wilderness and strengthened the walls, delaying the siege of Zang Gong and Yuan Tan.

At the same time, Zhang Huangyan traveled day and night, returned to Mengjin, and mobilized 10,000 Nanming Navy in Mengjin.

"Mengjin and Heyang City are separated by the Yellow River. There is a sandbank in the middle. This sandbank is controlled by Zhuge Ke's navy and has a water village on the sandbank. You can set up a floating bridge between Mengjin, water village and Heyang City. The three cities are connected by floating bridges and serve as a supporter. The Han army will be defeated."

Although Zhang Huangyan was not a first-class general, he had some experience in using the navy and quickly came up with a way to support Zhuge Ke.

Zhang Huangyan came up with a plan to cross the river, and needed to cooperate with Zhuge Ke's legion.

Zhang Huangyan led a team of navy troops to the Shazhou in the River, and Zhuge Ke set up a water village in the place in advance.

Sun Ce's forces occupied the sandbank in the middle of the Yellow River in advance, originally in order to capture Hebei in the future, and then go south to capture Heluo.

However, with Sun Ce being defeated and in danger, this water camp became the key to the cooperation between the Wu army and the Xia army.

"General, a navy approaches the water camp!"

"Don't worry, everyone is the navy of the Xia army. They should be here to try to lift the siege of Heyang."

A Wu general stood at the dock of the water village, looking at the warships erecting the Xia army flags. He knew that this was the navy trained by Zhang Huangyan, so he ordered to calm people's hearts.

Originally, the two sides might become enemies and compete for each other for the sandbanks in the middle of the Yellow River, but the Eastern Han army headed south to promote the alliance between the two sides.

Zhang Huangyan was also bold and meticulous, and directly led the warships into the Wu army's water camp, and joined forces with the military generals here.

"Lu Ju, the son of Lu Fan of the Wu Kingdom, served as the General of the An Army, led 3,000 troops to guard the Shuizhai. Once Heyang City is in danger, he will immediately send troops to restrain the Han army."

"Zhuge Ke said that if your Xia army sends troops to rescue, you must pass here, so you have been waiting for a long time."

The Wu general of the Water Village, Lu Ju, inherited Lu Fan's ability and was a famous general in the middle and late Wu Kingdom. He was restrained by Zhuge Ke and was ordered to defend the Water Village and support Zhang Huangyan.

"Zhuge Ke is talented and skillful, and he is indeed extraordinary. He has already planned to do this."

Zhang Huangyan sighed that Zhuge Ke has real talent and knowledge. As long as he is not proud, Zhuge Ke has the level of a first-class strategist.

Sun Ce's ability to look at people is also first-class. When Zhuge Ke had not made any achievements and had no capital to be proud, he asked Zhuge Ke to defend Heyang City to the death.
