Chapter 0086 Zhu Jiao kills Zhang Nan

After three days of marching on the road, the army led by Han Zhan finally left the Taihang Mountains and entered the wilderness to the east on the morning of the fourth day.

Two miles away from Wu'an City, Han Zhan saw that the city gates were closed in the distance, and there was not a single defender on the city walls and arrow towers, only an apricot yellow flag was rolling lonely and lazy. A trace of ominous feeling arose in his heart, and he quickly raised his hand to signal the troops to stop.

He turned his head and said to Zhao Yun who was following him: "Zilong, send someone to inquire and see what's going on in the city?"

After Zhao Yun sent a horse to explore, he ordered the army to set up a formation on the spot so that he could fight in time when attacked by the enemy.

Guo Jia urged the horse to come to Han Zhan, put a shed in his hand and looked out into the city. When he saw that there was no movement, he couldn't help but frown. He put down his hand and said to Han Zhan: "Empress, there seems to be no movement in the city. Could it be that Wu Anling abandoned the city and left?"

"It shouldn't be," Han Zhan said in an uncertain tone: "According to Geng Changshi's letter, Wu'anling was an old subordinate of his father. He has always been dissatisfied with the Yuan family. Seeing that our army has come here, he just needs to turn against each other, and there is no need to abandon the city and escape."

Xun You also rode a horse and said, "The envoy is right. His subordinates also sent a letter to Wu'an Ling, so that he would not panic when he saw our army. As for what happened in the city, it would be clear when the horse explored came back."

While everyone was staring at the direction of the city and waiting for the return of the horse to explore, Han Zhan couldn't help but remember that on the eve of leaving Sheguo County, Lihua got into her bed under Han Yan's arrangement. Although nothing was done in the end, they had a lot of close relationships. When they bid farewell to herself, Lihua smiled at her and said, "Young Master, Lihua is a member of the Han family, and she died is a ghost of the Han family. I will stay here and wait for the young master to return triumphantly."

Just as Han Zhan was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a burst of rapid horse hooves, and then someone shouted loudly: "Young master, look, our horse prodding is back!"

The horse explorer came to Han Zhan, turned over and dismounted, knelt on one knee, and said breathlessly: "Your envoy, Wu'an City is closed all over the world, and the villain cannot enter the city, and I don't know what happened."

After Xun You and others spoke up, they asked quickly: "What's going on in the city?"

The horse shook his head and replied, "The villain has heard it when he is close to the moat, and there is no movement inside."

As soon as the horse was spoken, three cannons came from the direction of the city. Everyone looked at the city and saw flags waving on the originally empty walls, and countless soldiers appeared. The closed city gate was opened and a team of more than 100 people rushed out.

After not much effort, the horse team came to the front of the army. Han Zhan saw a flag bearer holding a flag in his hand and writing a big "jiao" behind a general who was wearing a helmet and holding a big sword.

Han Zhan frowned and thought for a while. Among the famous generals of the Three Kingdoms, there seemed to be no surname Jiao. He was about to ask, but the general opposite turned around and waved his hand to the back. Immediately, two cavalrymen left the line and rushed to a place more than thirty steps away from Han Zhan to stop. Then he threw the things in his hand on the ground, turned around and returned to the formation.

Zhao Yun sent someone to pick up the things on the ground. After seeing what it was, he said to Han Zhan in surprise: "The envoy is two heads, one is our messenger, and the other head has a delicate beard, which should be Wu'an Order."

When Han Zhan heard this, he couldn't help but blood surged upwards. He pointed his hand at the general opposite and asked loudly: "Who is coming?"

The general rode out of the queue, pointed at Han Zhan with his finger, and said proudly: "I am the captain Jiao Chu under the second prince Xi, the Han family, your messenger and the inner Wu'an order have been killed by me, and you will not die!"

After hearing the person on the other side reported his name, Han Zhan immediately remembered who Jiao Chu was. On Changban slope a few years later, he and three other old Yuan generals besieged Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun, who was trapped in the crowd, had no choice but to kill him. However, if one on one at this moment, Zhao Yun killed him was not much more difficult than crushing a bed bug. Thinking of this, Han Zhan turned his head and ordered Zhao Yun: "Zilong, kill him and avenge Wu'an Ling and the messenger!"

Zhao Yun agreed and was about to rush out, but Xiahou Lan's voice came from beside him: "Eunuch, why use the slaughter knife to kill a chicken? Kill an unknown general? Why should my righteous brother take action? Please snatch the formation for me and see me take the head of his neck."

Jiao Chu saw a young general with silver helmet and silver armor rushing out of Han Zhan's formation, and secretly called out "Good come" and also activated his mount and rushed forward with a big knife. He rushed to Xiahou Lan, raised the big knife in his hand, and slashed Huashan with force, trying to split Xiahou Lan in half with one knife.

Xiahou Lan dodged sideways and dodged his thunder attack. Then the spear in his hand stabbed out and grabbed the opponent's throat. Jiao Tu was shocked, and quickly leaned back and barely dodged.

After Jiao Tu sat upright, another swept across the thousand troops came, trying to cut Xiahou Lan into two pieces. This time, Xiahou Lan did not dodge or dodge, but blocked Jiao Tu's knife with the spear in his hand.

Jiao Tu's strength was not as strong as Xiahou Lan, and he was shocked to the point of numbness. When he was about to cut out the third knife, Xiahou Lan's spear was already running towards his chest. He could not dodge and was stabbed to a cold heart. When Xiahou Lan withdrew the spear, Jiao Tu's body was still staying for a moment before slowly planting it.

"The captain is dead!" Seeing Xiahou Lan's gun touching the scorching force, the cavalry shouted, turned their horses and fled back.

Zhao Yun raised the spear in his hand and waved it forward. Five hundred horses in the formation immediately roared out, waving weapons and chasing Yuan Bing.

The hundreds of cavalrymen, except for a dozen horses fast, were killed respectfully by the cavalry commanded by Zhao Yun, like chopping melons and vegetables before they even approached the city.

The cavalry was about to follow the defeated soldiers into the city, but as soon as they arrived at the suspension bridge, they were blocked by the arrows shot from the city. Zhao Yun was afraid that his subordinates would suffer losses, so he quickly ordered them to stop chasing.

When Zhao Yun and his subordinates retreated a arrow, another group of people came out of the city, leading a general with two swords. Two hundred swords, shields and three hundred spearmen were followed by him.

After they formed a formation outside the city, the generals came out of the battle and shouted loudly at Zhao Yun: "Bohai Captain Zhang Nan is here, who dares to fight with me?"

Zhao Yun didn't talk nonsense to the other party, and urged Zhao Ye Yu Lion to rush up, raised the gentian silver spear and swung the opponent's swords, retried the gun a little, and then stabbed it out suddenly, piercing Zhang Nan's throat without bias. Like Zhao Yun took the gun in his hand, Zhang Nan's corpse rose from the horse's back, drew a beautiful arc in the air, and then fell heavily to the ground.

The soldiers who came out with Zhang Nan saw that they were picked up by others when they met their captain. They seemed to be unable to survive. Just as everyone was wondering if they should escape, they heard Zhao Yun shouting loudly: "Submitted people are exempt from death!"

The five hundred cavalry standing opposite also shouted: "Submitted people are exempt from death~!"
