At four o'clock, on the hill west of Chencang, a waving torch finally appeared, and the soldiers guarding here immediately reported to the battalion.

In the Han army camp, the soldiers have fallen asleep.

The general's tent was brightly lit, Deng Yulong was playing backgammon with the attendants, and the attendants who had just learned to play chess were having a good time.

"Haha! I won this set! ”

The squire finally won the game, smiling profusely.

Deng Yulong just wanted to pass the time, it didn't matter if he won or lost, he continued to play chess.

In the tent of King Han, Liu Bang had already gone to bed, but he couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning, and he was also anxious, eagerly waiting for the news of the baby.

At this time, the sound of hurried horses' hooves sounded outside the gate, and the soldiers dismounted to reveal their identities, and after the guards on duty let them go, they galloped towards the tent.

"Newspaper..."

Looking at the soldiers who came straight forward, Deng Yulong was finally relieved.

"Report to the general, there is a signal from the mountain west of Chen Cang!"

Deng Yulong became excited, and said loudly: "Beat the drum to raise the account." ”

The sound of the drums of "Knock Knock...", piercing the quiet night sky, and the Han officers and soldiers who had fallen asleep were all awakened by the loud drums.

There are many kinds of drums in the army, and the drums in front of the tent are specially notified to the generals to gather, and the soldiers can continue to sleep.

After Liu Bang heard the sound of the drum, he got up, and raised the tent so late, nine times out of ten, the task had been completed on the baby's side, he hurriedly put on his clothes and ran to the handsome tent.

"Deng Aiqing..."As soon as Liu Bang's voice fell, the person had already rushed into the handsome tent and asked urgently: "Is the baby irrigation successful?" ”

Deng Yulong smiled happily: "That's right, take Chen Cang, it's tonight." ”

Liu Bang immediately became happy, and his original anxious mood was swept away.

The generals quickly got up, put on their clothes and armor, and walked quickly to the tent. Last time, the general said that if Guan Ying completed the task, he would launch an attack from the front of Chen Cang at night to attract the enemy's main force, and Guan Ying would secretly attack.

Everyone thought that it was likely that the city was about to be attacked, and everyone was excited.

The first to enter the handsome tent was Fan Xu, and when he saw that Liu Bang was also there, he immediately asked: "King Han, is it the baby who has completed the task!" ”

Liu Bang smiled lightly: "That's natural, otherwise how could the general raise the account for no reason." ”

"Haha! All right! Soon you will be able to take down Chencang. Fan laughed heartily.

The generals entered the tent one after another, standing on both sides in order of rank.

The drumming stopped, and the tent fell silent again.

Deng Yulong said: "Maybe you already know that the baby has successfully completed the task and is waiting for our side to act." Break through Chen Cang, just tonight. ”

Everyone has indeed estimated it first, and now it is confirmed from the mouth of the general.

"The Crowd Listens"

"Fan Xu, Cao Shen, Lu Xuan"

"In"

The three of them came out together.

"The three of you are responsible for the siege of the city, this time 40,000 soldiers will be allocated to you, 10,000 will be used for the siege, and 40,000 will be responsible for shouting and cheering. This time, the city must be attacked with all its might. ”

"No!"

All three happily accepted the order.

"Chen He"

"The Last Will Be"

"You lead the troops to assist the men, take out the best food and wine in the army, and after dawn, hold a celebration banquet in Chencang City."

"No"

Soon, outside the gate, countless torches were lit, and 40,000 soldiers gathered here, aiming at Chencang City.

——————

To the west of Chencang, in the dense bushes directly in front of the west city wall, thousands of Han troops hid here.

This unit, led by Guan Ying, Fan Mu, and Han Xin, went through difficulties and dangers, and finally successfully completed the task given by the general, and in the process, more than 300 people died on the way.

Along the way, Han Xin was thinking about how he could play the most role when he attacked Chen Cang, and now he had a practical idea.

He whispered to Guan Ying: "General Guan, before leaving, the general gave me a mission. ”

The baby asked, "What is the task?" ”

Han Xin said: "The general said that after the sneak attack is successful, I will take people to change into the clothes of the Yongjun, pretend to go to report the military situation to Zhang Zhiyu, and then wait for the opportunity to take it down." ”

In fact, Deng Yulong didn't give him another task at all, if Han Xin said that he came up with it himself, he might not necessarily adopt it, and in this way, he would show his talents, so he temporarily made his own opinion, saying that he was acting on orders.

When Guan Ying heard this, this plan was very good, and he sighed: "The general is really resourceful, and he uses soldiers like a god. ”

Not long after, the sound of drums in the east sounded, and even here it could be heard clearly, Han Xin said, such a loud drum sound, it should be a gathering of all the snare drums.

The bigger the siege, the better, the higher the success rate of the sneak attack here, Han Xin admired Deng Yulong very much, and was very glad that he had the opportunity to meet this confidant.

In Chencang City, Zhang Zhi was lying in the warm quilt, and there was a woman next to the pillow, enjoying it in the gentle township.

Suddenly, a loud drum beat came from outside the city.

"Tuk tuk tuk..."The bedroom was knocked a few times in a hurry, "General, the Han army is about to attack the city!" ”

"Alright, I got it!"

Zhang Zhi got up slowly, isn't it just a siege, Chen Cangcheng is impregnable, it is not a critical matter.

Yao Tong came to the east city wall first, and as far as the eye could see, there were dense torches outside the city, dozens of war drums were beating at the same time, and suddenly so many people were gathered, and the Han army must do its best to attack the city.

After a while, Zhang Zhi also came, looking at the scene, there was no nervousness and fear, he didn't think that Chen Cang had the possibility of losing his ground.

Yao Daodao: "It seems that the Han army will not give up if it does not take Chen Cang!" ”

Zhang Zhi smiled coldly: "Liu Bang is out of options, so he can only attack the city overnight at all costs." ”

At this time, a large number of Han soldiers pushed the siege equipment to the east gate of Chencang, and someone held a torch, and the firelight illuminated the siege soldiers clearly, and the Yongjun on the city wall saw it in their eyes.

This is what Deng Yulong deliberately asked to do, just to let the enemy see clearly that there are many people in the Han army who are coming to attack the city, and put on a posture of not giving up if he does not take Chen Cang.

Zhang Zhi said to the herald: "Pass my order, the south city wall and the north city wall will send seventy percent of the troops, and the north city wall will send ninety percent of the troops." ”

"No"

The three heralds quickly ran to three places.

Yao Daodao: "Even if there are more people, they don't want to take Chen Cang." ”

Zhang Zhi sneered again: "Under the wall of Chencang, there is the tomb of the Han army. If he really dares to attack the city at all costs, when he can't attack for a long time and is tired, King Yong will definitely attack, and Liu Bang will be completely finished. ”

A few days ago, the city was attacked for three days in succession, and more than 900 people were lost by his subordinates, but the Han army lost several thousand. Zhang Zhi, who has basic ability, understands that if the Han army attacks the city at any cost, it will be able to break through Chen Cang with enough troops, but his uncle Zhang Han will definitely not sit idly by.
