Xiao Pei.

Cao Cao took great pains for Yin Lu Bu. Not only did he transfer a full 20,000 troops, but he also transferred all the generals in the generals.

Now, under Xiaopei City, Guo Jia is commanding an army of 50,000 people, blocking outside Xiaopei City. On the city wall, Chen Gong and Gao Shun led about 3,000 remnants of the defeated army.

Guo Jia now has no soldiers in his hands, so he did not attack Xiao Pei, but only blocked Xiao Pei's city gate, so that the people in the city could not escape, or support Lu Bu.

Guo Jia knows very well that as long as his strategy works. Once Lu Bu is killed or captured, then Xiao Pei's battle situation can be regarded as a winner. Attacking Xiaopei now will only increase casualties, and there is no need for anything.

It's noon.

On the city wall, Chen Gong saw that Lu Bu had not come back for a long time, nor did he see fireworks rising in the distance, and he had already been somewhat vigilant in his heart.

"General Gao Shun, the lord is just afraid that something will happen." At the head of the city, Chen Gong glanced at Gao Shun and said softly.

Gao Shun was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Military Master, where do you say this?" ”

Chen Gong's face was gloomy, as if he could drip water, and replied: "The lord has been gone for two hours, and I think he should have already encountered the enemy army at this time. If it succeeds, smoke should rise in the distance. Now it seems that most of the accident happened. ”

As soon as Chen Gong said this, Gao Shun understood what he meant. You must know that this Cao army's grain transportation team is transporting grain and grass for 100,000 people, and if Lu Bu succeeds, then as long as the grain is burned, a raging fire will inevitably ignite.

And now, they are standing on the wall of Xiaopei, but they see nothing. The fact that there was no red sky burned by the fire, and no black smoke in the sky showed that the plan to burn the grain was not successful.

Lu Bu personally led 500 people to attack the grain team of Cao Jun's 10,000 people, which was originally a mission with no return. If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent. And now, apparently, it has not succeeded.

"Strategist, I'll take someone to the Savior." Gao Shun said eagerly.

"Help, how can you save?" Chen Gong asked rhetorically.

Chen Gong's words made Gao Shun's heart tremble suddenly, that's right, what Chen Gong said was right, save, how to save. At this time, there were only 3,000 remnants of the city defeated, and all of them were infantry.

Outside the city, there were tens of thousands of Cao troops. Now I am afraid that as soon as they leave the city, they will immediately fall into the encirclement of Cao's army. At that time, it will inevitably be the end of the annihilation of the whole army.

"Strategist, what is it like now?" Gao Shun had no idea at this time, so he could only ask Chen Gong.

Chen Gong pondered for a moment and said, "General Gao, let people pour fire oil on the city wall and pile up dry firewood. I, Chen Gong, are dead, and I can't let Xiao Pei fall into the hands of Cao Thief. ”

Burning the city, Chen Gong made the decision to burn the city. Once Cao Cao got Xiao Pei, then he could use Xiao Pei as a bridgehead, and then further plot against Xuzhou.

Now that Xiao Pei can refuse Cao Cao and the outside of the city, then once Xiao Pei falls into Cao Cao's hands, this situation can be adjusted. At that time, Cao Cao can use Xiao Pei to resist the enemy in the direction of Xuzhou, so that Cao Cao's grain route will be completely safe.

Burn the city, burn the entire Xiaopei, since it can't be defended, then burn Xiaopei, and you can't let this strong city be used by Cao thieves.

This is said again, and I don't know why, Chen Gong's hatred for Cao Cao seems to be unfounded, you said that this Cao Cao didn't have much of him. Cao Cao really wanted to ask him to be his military advisor from the beginning, which he Chen Gong was unwilling to do and gave up Cao Cao.

I estimate, you see, back then, Cao Cao assassinated Dong Zhuo, and then ran away and was arrested, Chen Gong put this official inappropriately, let Cao Cao go, and ran with Cao Cao.

It's like what, it's like a beautiful little girl's first love, and the other party is still a dark, thin and short boy. The girl said, I don't want you anything, I just want you to have a good character.

Chen Gong is not this beautiful little girl, Cao Cao is like this black boy, Chen Gong abandoned the official back then, and he also wanted to save Cao Cao, what is the picture, the picture is Cao Cao's righteousness to assassinate Dong Zhuo.

However, Cao Cao killed Lu Bohao's family because of suspicion, and said that he would rather let me bear the world than the world.

Chen Gong is like the little girl who fell in love for the first time, and finally found that she had seen the wrong person and her feelings were deceived. You said this Chen Gong, how can you not hate Cao Cao. щèńχūè⒈Θм

Under Chen Gong's order, the remaining 3,000 soldiers began to sprinkle fire oil on the city wall, piling up weeds, dry firewood and other flammable materials, and before long, the entire four walls of Xiaopei were all splashed with fire oil and filled with weeds.

The entire city wall was filled with a very pungent smell of fire oil.

"Let's order the other three walls first, and I'll stand here for a while." Chen Gong looked in the direction Lu Bu had left and groaned.

"Boom."

It didn't take long for the raging flames to ignite on the other three walls of Xiao Pei. After the soldiers lit the fire, they all gathered on the front wall. The blazing flames on the city walls make the city particularly beautiful.

Xiaopei's city walls are glued together with bluestone and glutinous rice juice, and the filling outside and inside of the city is tamped loess. Thermal expansion and contraction, once the temperature of the city wall reaches a certain level. The loess filled inside the city wall will swell, and the city wall will burst and the entire city wall will collapse.

As long as Xiao Pei's city wall falls, even if Cao Cao gets Xiao Pei, this is no longer a fortress. It is useless to get it.

The city walls are full of fire oil, and the walls are full of dry wood and weeds, in this case, even if it is a small spark, Xiao Pei will become a sea of fire, let alone someone deliberately ignited the fire.

At this time, the entire Xiaopei city wall, only the front gate tower has not been ignited.

"General Gao, give me a torch, and you can take them to their own places." Chen Gong said to Gao Shun.

"Fart."

"You are a literati and you are not afraid of death, but what is my fear of a martial artist. Today, I live and die with this Xiaopei by the way. Gao Shun said angrily, as if he had been humiliated.

"Swear to live and die with Xiao Pei."

"Swear to live and die with Xiao Pei."

.......

.......

The soldiers on the city wall also seemed to have looked down on life and death, and shouted loudly together.

From igniting the flame to igniting the flame, the process is only a moment. Under the city, Guo Jia saw a fire burning on the city wall, and the cold sweat on his forehead instantly broke out.

Guo Jia knew that if Chen Gong really burned down this Xiaopei City, then there would be no point in them taking Xiaopei. What they wanted was the fortified city of Xiaopei as a bridgehead, not to kill Lu Bu, or to exterminate Lu Bu's more than 10,000 soldiers and horses.

"Hurry, hurry, order all troops to seize the city quickly, and be sure to extinguish the fire as soon as possible." Guo Jia's order was issued, and the entire Cao army camp was exhausted.

Actually, it's not that Cao Jun can't capture Xiaopei. Now the troops in Guo Jia's hands are almost twenty times that of Xiaopei's defenders. That is to say, a small Pei defender needs to defend twenty Cao troops. Such a disparity in proportion, let alone on the battlefield, you are on the football field, let a Brazilian player defend twenty Chinese players, and he also does not defend enough.

The reason why Guo Jia has never taken the initiative to attack Xuzhou is because once Cao Cao's side exterminates Lu Bu, Xiao Peicheng will be broken with a snap of his fingers. But Guo Jia didn't expect that Chen Gong didn't wait for the results to come out, and directly burned the city. In this case, Guo Jia couldn't care about the casualties.
