Chapter 80 Zhang Bao

 Zhang Bao stood on the city wall and listened to the shouting below. Although the sound was not loud to the city wall, it was still very clear.

A big man with black face, red lips and curly beard beside Zhang Bao said to Zhang Bao: "General Earth, do you want me to take some people out and drive them away?"

Zhang Bao refused in his tone with a trembling tone and said, "No need for Zhou Cang, it is too dangerous to attack rashly." He looked at the other soldiers on the city wall and sighed and said, "And they are right. We are indeed short of food, and now the weather is colder day by day, I am afraid that we will collapse soon."

Zhou Cang persuaded: "Please don't worry about this matter, please wait a moment, maybe things will turn around."

Zhang Bao said sadly: "Hey, we are trapped in the lonely city, without any external news. I don't know how long we can hold on. Do you think what they said is true?"

Zhou Cang thought about it and replied, "It should be true. I heard that Huangfu Song was good at using troops before, and he also heard that he was vicious. It was most likely that the people in the city shouted "It was true."

Zhang Bao said as if he had given hope: "If it is true, I think we two brothers will be in danger. Although I thought about such a day when I was besieged, I still feel a little regretful now. Has the dream of peace still failed?"

Zhou Cang suggested anxiously: "General Digong, we still have a chance. We will fight tonight. Taihang Mountain is right next to it. As long as we can run into the mountains, they will definitely not be able to find us."

Zhang Bao stared at the camp in the distance and said, "They will never let me go. As long as I want to rush out, they will definitely chase me for their own lives. I am already tired. How about you tell me to take you to surrender?"

Zhou Cang said anxiously: "General Earth, you must not think so. We may save our lives if we surrender. If you surrender, you will definitely be unable to escape death."

Zhang Bao said lonely: "It is a dead end for us to stay here. It is better to sacrifice our lives to change your life for you."

Liu Chang and Guo Dian stood behind the callers and looked at the Yellow Turban Army on the city wall. Several of them looked obviously different from other soldiers.

Liu Chang pointed to one of them and said, "This person must be Zhang Bao."

Guo Dian couldn't help but ask curiously: "How can I see it?"

Liu Chang said with a slight pride: "You see, these people obviously look around this person, which means that this person must be a leader of the Yellow Turbans in the city. And we sent someone to shout so loudly under the city that Zhang Bao could not come. Since that is the case, this person should be Zhang Bao."

Guo Dian said: "Thinking that General Liu's words must be true. If we can shoot him with an arrow here, the city will definitely be in chaos."

Liu Chang estimated the distance between them and shook his head and said, "It's too far, it's impossible for us to shoot that far."

The soldiers of Liu Chang's side were still shouting.

Guo Dian asked Liu Chang: "Do you think this is useful?"

Liu Chang replied: "I don't know, I'll give it a try. Anyway, it's not a big deal to wait for General Huangfu. If we can really persuade them to surrender, we can make some contributions."

Guo Dian couldn't help but sigh and said, "Yes, let's treat dead horses as living horses."

Zhou Cang found a strong bow. He aimed at the person who was calling and used all his strength to pull the bow. The muscles on his arm were tense and the blue veins swelled up. Then he loosened the bowstring, and an arrow fell towards the people who were calling like a meteor.

With a bang, the arrow was firmly fixed on the shields held by several people.

Zhang Bao said with a pity: "These people are holding big shields, but unfortunately the arrows cannot enter."

Liu Chang couldn't help but exclaim, "This person has amazing arm strength."

Guan Yu behind him said to Liu Bei with a proud look: "If someone is on the city, you should win."

Liu Bei echoed: "Yun Changxian has the courage of ten thousand people, so he should do this."

Liu Chang shouted to the soldiers in front of him: "So shout, they have no way to deal with you. Even the arrows shot by such warriors cannot hurt you at all. Don't be afraid. Keep shouting."

So the soldiers standing in front could only shout over and over again.

Zhang Bao looked at the people in the city with heavy eyes and said to Zhou Cang: "How many of them do you think will be moved?"

Zhou Cang could not answer this question, so he had to say firmly: "I will definitely protect the general of the Earth. If anyone wants to be unfavorable to the general, I will definitely take down his head if I try my best."

Zhang Bao nodded and said, "Of course I believe in you." After saying that, he looked around, stopped talking, and slowly walked down the city wall.

After accompanying Zhang Bao to leave the city wall, Zhou Cang found a friend of his own and said, "Pei Yuanshao, the enemy shouted at us today. I think people in the city are in a state of trouble. I am afraid that someone will be unfavorable to General Digong. You have to help me protect General Digong together."

Pei Yuanshao said to Zhou Cang with an abnormal expression: "This is a million yuan. Aren't you moved? We have never seen so much money in our lives."

Zhou Cang retorted: "Do you really believe they will give this money? I'm afraid it would be a death in the past. This is a million yuan, how could they give us?"

Pei Yuanshao said: "As long as someone believes it, as long as one person believes it, it can be believed by people in the whole city. There will always be people who are willing to take a gamble for this money."

Zhou Cang went up and patted his shoulder, and said in a simple and clear manner: "There is so much nonsense, I just ask if you would like to help me?"

Pei Yuanshao said helplessly: "Since you have come to me, I will naturally help you. But this must be extremely dangerous. And I think what the people under the city are saying is true. The great wise and good teachers must be in danger. We still need to consider it for ourselves."

Zhou Cang began to remain silent for a moment.

Pei Yuanshao continued: "Do you believe in Taiping Road?"

Zhou Cang shook his head and said, "I don't believe it. I followed General Digong because he saved my life. If so, I would use my life to return it to him."

Pei Yuanshao said bitterly: "Why are you doing this? Why don't you wait for a sudden change in the city to surrender together, as long as we can run out. Even if we become a bandit, it's better to wait for death here."

Zhou Cang said seriously: "It's just a life. If you can't repay your kindness, what's the use of this life?"
