Chapter 319. Insults

On the second day, Yingji and Zhao Yun took the lead in pulling up the tent and set up camp on the Danshui River, five miles outside Danyang City.

Danshui is rich in Danshui. Another plan that Yingji and Zhao Yun ordered to camp here is that there is not enough food and grass, so they can prey on Danshui for a livelihood.

Danyang City has produced famous wines since ancient times.

Danyang is the most famous wine, especially Dan wine. It is steamed and brewed with a fragrance that makes people drink it once and will never forget it.

"General Zhao Yun, do you know this pill wine?"

The two of them sat on horseback and looked at the city walls of Danyang City on the high hillside. Ying Ji asked with a smile.

"I heard a little, but I didn't like drinking in my life. If the general likes it, his subordinates can let the soldiers pay attention to protecting some wineries when siege the city."

"Good boy, I am worthy of the king's love for you so much. I have a delicate mind, but General Zhao Yun, Danyang City has high walls and cannot be attacked forcibly."

"This subordinate naturally knows."

Zhao Yun's face remained unchanged, his white robe fluttered, and he laughed softly: "My subordinates believe that our army has arrived and its morale is in full swing, and the Chu army will definitely not leave Danyang City to fight our army to the decisive battle."

"The reason why the Chu army was able to capture Danyang City was unexpected and only succeeded when our army was not defending. After the success, it was carefully deployed and was responsible for delaying our army here; in Danyang City, the chief general of the Chu army was Qu Gai's old general, who was a famous general of the Chu State, who had been guarding the border for many years and was well versed in military strategies. It was difficult for Danyang City to attack."

"General Yingji, let our army scold you tomorrow and tempt the Chu army to leave the city. No matter whether it can succeed or not, it will always be a try."

"That's all."

The two men transferred their horse heads and started returning to the camp.

On the second day, Zhao Yun was wearing a white robe and holding a silver spear in his hand to provoke in front of Danyang City.

The Chu army defenders in Danyang City were 100,000, but Bai Qi only brought 5,000 troops, which clearly looked down on the Chu army's combat power.

On the top of the city, the old general Qu Gai and the deputy general Pang Houchou stood proudly, staring at the city with a different look.

"The Qin army is so arrogant?"

The young and frivolous man, seeing Zhao Yun so provoked, he couldn't help but feel a little angry. He turned around and looked at Qu Gai and said, "Old General, wait until the last general goes down and chops Zhao Yun into meat paste!"

"stop!"

Qu Gai scolded Zheng Hou Chou, the old general was over 60 years old, but he was still full of energy and was getting stronger.

Some people, as their name, raised their eyebrows and turned their heads and asked, "What are the old generals afraid of? We are humans, and the Qin army is also humans."

In recent years, what was rumored in the Warring States Period was how the Qin army was invincible and was unstoppable. Few people said how the Chu army was.

The Chu army was afraid of the Qin army because of this. In fact, the armies of the two countries have not had any head-on confrontation so far.

But the indelible fact is that the Wei Wuzhang who was dominating the world back then was defeated by the Qin army in front of him.

Qu Gai shook his head: "Zhao Yun came here to let our army go out of the city to fight decisively. We must not open the city to meet the enemy, so as not to be trapped in Zhao Yun's treacherous plan; our purpose is to defend Danyang City, restrain the 100,000 Qin troops here, and buy time for Jing Cui and General Kuang Zhang."

"Elder General, our army may not necessarily be defeated if we leave the city."

"But it may not be able to win. If you really lose, then all your efforts will be wasted. Once Danyang City is lost, the Qin army can concentrate on dealing with General Jing Cui."

Hearing this, Zheng Houchou's body shook. He was still too young and was not so comprehensive in thinking about the problem.

The old general said, every sentence is reasonable, and he still has a lot to learn on the battlefield.

Zhao Yun waited for half a cup of tea under the city, but when he saw that there was no movement, he rode alone forward without fear.

When they arrived at the city wall, the swords were tense, and the crossbowmen were all arching their bows, and they instantly shot Zhao Yun into a hedgehog.

"Qin General Zhao Yun, please speak with the old general Qu Gai."

Qu Gai waved his hand and signaled the soldiers to put down their bows and arrows. The two armies fought and the hidden arrows hurt people. This is not a gentleman's way.

"I am Qu Bei, why should General Zhao Yun find me?"

Zhao Yun looked up and saw the old horse's face, dark and weathered, and bowed: "I have heard of the name of General Qu for a long time. But my Qin army has been in Danyang City for many days. The general stayed in his door and hung a war-free sign. Why? Is it because I am afraid of my Qin army?"

"Hahaha--" Qu Gai laughed wildly, shook his head and said, "General Zhao Yun is not only unparalleled in strategy, but his skills in verbalism are also not inferior to others. However, if the young general wants to rely on this trick to trick the general into opening the city to fight, he may have made a mistake."

Zhao Yun also smiled and said, "Zhao Yun is just here, how dare you show off in front of the old general? Since the old general refuses to fight, Zhao Yun does not force it. Our Qin army camp is five miles outside Danyang City. When will the old general be in a good mood? You can deliver a letter of war at any time? Zhao Yun is waiting for it, the old general, Zhao Yun said goodbye."

After saying that, Zhao Yun turned his horse's head directly, moved very slowly, and began to slowly move towards the Qin army formation.

The ugly eyes showed fierce light, and he stretched out a hand and said, "Give it!"

The soldiers on the side immediately understood and handed the bow and arrow in their hands to Pang Hou Chou. Pang Hou Chou pulled the bow like a full moon and pointed it at Zhao Yun's back.

"General Gong, let it go!"

It was Qu Bei who was stopping him again.

He was fighting but not fighting, and he wanted to shoot a cold arrow but was stopped. The current mood of Zheng Houchou was really uncomfortable.

Putting down the bow and arrow, Pang Houchou frowned and said, "Old General, if it weren't for you to stop me, my arrow would have shot through Zhao Yun's back and forth."

"General Gong is so confident in his archery skills?

But this general tells you that Zhao Yun's nerves are always tense, and your arrow will not succeed; since you know you don't hit it, you don't have to be so extreme to prevent you from losing face to Chu."

Qu Gai's words were written in every word, and his words made him unable to speak.

However, compared with the differences between Zhao Yun and Pang Hou Chou, Qu Gai lamented that there was no successor to Chu.

"What will we do next for the old general?"

Qu Gai said: "Tell the soldiers to strengthen the city defense, take turns to guard the Qin army at night."

"yes!"

Just as he was about to go down and pass the death, he saw that the Qin army's formation war suddenly changed. More than 200 fat men suddenly walked out of it, each with his back and waist, standing at the front of the military formation, outside the range of the Chu army's bow and arrow.

There was a lot of discussion on the top of Danyang City.

"What are you doing when Qin Jun has found so many fat men?"

"I don't know, are they here to make fun of it, standing in front of the army with their waists pinched, showing off their charm?"

"Haha, maybe, let's see what they are going to do."

In fact, these 200 fat men were the commanders of the Qin army.

They took three rows, from high to low, as if they were a choir, and then took out the woodwork in the shape of a megaphone and started shouting.

"The Chu army was incompetent, and the turtle shrank into the city, and the turtle shrank, and quickly left the city to surrender."

"You are as timid as a mouse, and your head is as turtle as a timid!"

"Do you dare to go out of the city and fight to the death?"
