Chapter 243: Gao Huai tunes the tiger away from the mountain and almost hangs up
"Two gentlemen, in half a month, it will be time to send troops. At such a time, you can't be discouraged. Think about the time when my father was funeral, I was still the assassin of Youzhou, how difficult was the situation at that time? The troops of Yuan Tan, Yuan Shang, Cao Cao, Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Goguryeo were five or six hundred thousand, and we were only more than 100,000. With such a huge difference in strength, didn't you win too? Now sitting on the two states of Jiyou, there is a stable rear, there is enough grain and grass, and there are more than 200,000 elites to be deployed, even if there are more enemies, what is there to fear? Yuan Xi said.
"Hmm!"
He nodded imperceptibly.
"My lord, this..." Tian Feng was still worried.
"Yuan Hao doesn't need to persuade anymore, I've made up my mind!" Yuan Xi waved his hand and hummed: "Even if Cao Cao and Yuan Tan have fought the Yellow River, I am not afraid." On our turf, it is more conducive to our fighting! ”
"Two gentlemen, just follow what I just said, give Gao Ran an order, and let him be immediately armed. Half a month later, the three armies joined the state! ”
"No..."
The two stood up and answered.
Seeing that the battle with Yuan Shang was approaching, but the fire oil accumulated by Yuan Shang had not been destroyed, Yuan Xi couldn't help but wonder, the army he sent to the state should also do it, right?
Rattle...
The voice of the Aeolian pterosaur was heard in the sky.
Yuan Xi ran out in surprise and beckoned to him: "Xiaolonglong, come down." ”
"Master."
The body of the Aeolian pterosaur is already very huge. With its wings spread out for nearly ten meters, this is already an adult Aeolus pterosaur. Its combat effectiveness will not belong to the Tyrannosaurus rex. If it's in heaven, it's invincible.
"Is there any news from the state?"
"Back to the master, not yet..."
"Keep an eye on it, if there is any news, come back quickly."
"Yes."
The Aeolian pterosaur spreads its wings and leaves.
Yuan Xi was a little disappointed.
I thought that the Fengshen Pterodactyl was here to report the news, but I didn't expect it to be passing by.
Those who lurk into the state will miss the best opportunity if they don't do it. If the oil and equipment were transported to Huguan, Yanmen Pass, and Hexi County, the garrison at the border would be greatly strengthened.
Yuan Xi had to pay attention to this matter, and prepared to go to Bingzhou to find out in person before setting out on the expedition. Anyway, at the speed of the four disagreements, you can go back and forth in two or three days, and even if you delay the merger for ten days, you will have to hurry back to hold the ceremony of the expedition.
this day.
The weather was sunny and cloudless.
Yuan Xi flew to Bingzhou by four disappointments, and flew very high for fear of being detected. Looking up from the land, you can only see a black dot, slowly moving in the direction of the state. But in fact, he moves faster than the strengthened Maxima.
Soon arrived at the gateway to the state.
Huguan is located in the east of the state. Backed by Shangdang, there are extremely steep Taihang Mountains on the left and right. It was a very strong city, and it was a dangerous passage to block the Jizhou army from entering the state.
"Let's go down and see..."
The four fell silently to the right side of the Huguan, a very high peak.
From here, you can see the garrison of Huguan.
There were a lot of large instruments and crossbows on the closing, and there were trebuchets in it. There were dozens of boilers in the city, which were supposed to be used to boil the oil. Boil the oil and then pour it down and ignite it, which can achieve the purpose of injuring the enemy to the greatest extent.
"It seems that Yuan Shang has made sufficient preparations."
"Despite this, the state will also be conquered by me!" Yuan Xi had long made up his mind to unify Hebei in this year. Just because Yuan Shang was prepared, he could not give up attacking and annexing the state.
Observed on the mountain for half a day.
In the evening.
There was a great deal of fire on the west side of the city, which lit up half of the sky.
"It's a fire, isn't it? Could it be that Gao Huai made a move? Yuan Xi thought to himself: "It shouldn't be so coincidental, I just arrived at Huguan, Gao Huai did it, or did it in Huguan." ”
..............
Town.
"There's a fire in Xicheng, go and put out the fire..." A lieutenant rode through the streets. The soldiers patrolling and standing guard along the way, after hearing his shout, hurried to Xicheng.
Soon, the patrols of the streets of Huguan were all transferred to Xicheng.
The soldiers who were originally standing guard outside the barracks were also transferred.
There was chaos in the camp, and people were running everywhere.
"Turning the tiger away from the mountain?" Yuan Xi watched from the top of the mountain, and had already guessed the strategy that Gao Huai was going to use. Xu is a place where fire oil is stored, there are too many soldiers to guard, it is not easy to destroy, and only by transferring the enemy away can there be a chance to attack.
Whew...
Things were as Yuan Xi expected.
After the Yuan army rushed to Xicheng, a hundred black-clothed people came out of a courtyard and ran in the direction of the school field. Each of them carried a sword, wore a hat, and was masked, dressed as Assassins.
The speed of action is extremely fast, like a gust of wind rushing towards it.
Gao Huai ran at the front, led hundreds of people, made a detour to the side of the school field, climbed over the wall, and directly arrived at the place where the Huguan guards stored the fire oil. There were still thousands of soldiers stationed there.
"Who?" As soon as Gao Huai's hundreds of people appeared, they were discovered.
Although there are not many enemies in the barracks and will not come to support, there are still thousands of people here, and it is not easy to destroy the accumulated fire oil.
Gao Huai had already prepared and sent fifty men to attract the attention of the enemy.
Move the defenders out of the way again.
"Follow me." Gao Huai snorted lightly, led the fifty people behind him, and rushed directly to the fire oil depot.
"Stop them!" The lieutenant who was responsible for guarding the fire oil depot found Gao Huai and his party and led the army to meet them.
"Kill..." Gao Huai had no choice but to engage him.
Puff puff...
The soldiers on both sides impulsively fought together in close combat.
Yuan Xi watched from the top of the mountain, and his heart was also anxious: "If it goes on like this, how can it be possible to burn the fire oil depot?" When the enemy who went to Xicheng comes back, Gao Huai and his party will definitely die. ”
"Gotta find a way..."
Yuan Xi pondered for a moment and prepared to play in person. With the speed of the four phases and the advantage of high-altitude combat, even if you can't inflict heavy damage on the enemy, you can still attract their attention and buy time for Gao Huai.
"It's a pity that the Anemo Pterodactyl isn't here." Yuan Xi sighed and flew down.
Oh...
When approaching the barracks, the roar of the dragon pierced the sky.
"That's... That's Yuan Xi's four inconsistencies! The soldiers stationed in the camp recognized them at a glance. It has not been a day or two since they fought with Yuan Xi, and all the giant beasts of Yuan Xi are clear, like a few treasures. Even the strength, attack methods, body size, and weight of each giant beast are all traced.
The four incompatibles are animals that can fly to the sky, and they are the most eye-catching, how can they not know it?
"It's not good, it's Yuan Xi here..."
"Now that Yuan Xi is coming, his army must not be far away, quickly send an order to meet the enemy!"
"Meet the enemy! Meet the enemy! ”
..........
All the generals were shouting, and the soldiers in the battalion were in disarray. Bands of archers came out, aimed at the sky, and shot wildly. But the distance was too far to miss.
