The father of the city, known as Yi in ancient times, was the capital of Chu in the Spring and Autumn Period, the famous general Wu Zixu in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the top strategist Zhang Liang in the early Western Han Dynasty were all from this.

Guan Xing led his soldiers and horses to bypass several military camps of the Wei army overnight, and when he arrived at the city father, it was already almost dawn.

This place can indeed store grain, but it seems that the garrison is no different from an ordinary county town.

"General, do you want to do it?" The general leaned to Guan Xing's side, and his eyes flashed with eagerness.

"it." Guan Xing nodded, no matter whether there is grain in it or not, since it is here, it must be done, and Guan Xing still has some confidence in Liu Cheng, after this battle, Liu Cheng's calculation has never been wrong, since Liu Cheng has determined that the grain and grass are in the city father, even if the city father's garrison is not strict now, it is not like a place to hoard grain and grass, Guan Xing also chose to believe Liu Cheng.

"In this way, you take a group of men and horses to attack from the north of the city, and after you go to the city, don't worry about anything else, set fire first, and when I see a fire over there, I will immediately attack from the south of the city!" Guan Xing thought for a while and said, in this way, even if the other party really has something else inside, under the two-way attack, there is a better chance of winning.

"Whoa!" The general agreed, and sent a detachment of men and horses around the city father to the north of the city.

The darkness before dawn is the most difficult time of the day, and the sound of fighting soon sounded in the direction of the north of the city, and the firelight was extremely eye-catching in this darkest moment.

"Sure enough, I guessed it!" At this moment, Guan Xing admired Liu Cheng a little more in his heart, the voice that sounded in the city was obviously indeed hidden in the ambush, and it was impossible for the city with only a few hundred defenders to have such a fierce reaction.

At that moment, Guan Xing did not hesitate, and immediately ordered people to take the opportunity to attack the city.

The defenders of the city father are sufficient, so it is naturally impossible to send them all to the north of the city at once, but the attention of the defenders in the city has obviously been attracted by the war in the direction of the north of the city.

Dozens of mountain soldiers who were good at climbing from Shuzhong quickly climbed to the city wall with the help of flying hooks, and the resistance of the defenders did not attract the attention of the city guards for the first time, and the city gate was easily opened.

Guan Xing straddled the horse, his eyes flashed with excitement, and he raised his long knife and said loudly, "Soldiers, make meritorious contributions, and kill me today!" ”

The reaction of the Wei army was not slow, but when the guards urgently mobilized soldiers and horses to come to the rescue, Guan Xing had already led a large group of men and horses to surge in, in the firelight, Guan Xing took the lead, the long knife in his hand swept through the cold arc, with a cloud of knives, for the leader Wei General saw Guan Xing brave, roared, Pegasus came to fight, but was killed to rise Guan Xing's hand up and down, even people with weapons to cut into two sections, only the remaining war horses rushed forward.

"Kill me!" Looking at the warehouses in the city, the excitement in Guan Xing's eyes became more and more intense, Liu Cheng's calculation was indeed correct, this city father was Cao Shuang's granary at all, no wonder Wei Yan made such a fuss in the rear, but Cao Shuang was always indifferent!

The Han army that poured into the city did not fight chaotically, but quickly formed a battle formation with hundreds of people, wearing heavy armor, like a torrent of steel pouring into the alleys of the city.

Although they were not as numerous as the Wei army, their armor was strong, their weapons were sharp, and their morale was high, and wherever they passed, the Wei army's resistance was like a thin piece of paper, and it was easily defeated.

Some Wei troops came out of the surrounding houses with the sound of fighting, and before they even understood what was happening, they were drowned out by the surging Han army.

Looking at the surrounding warehouse, Guan Xing picked up a brazier with a knife, covered it on the warehouse, the flames rose, and the Han army around was not ambiguous, and constantly passed by the torch object, but in a moment, most of the county was shrouded in a sea of fire.

Looking at the city that was gradually illuminated by the firelight, Guan Xing felt a little distressed for no reason, so much grain and grass, but unfortunately he couldn't take it away, creating evil!

The city father guard is Xiahou Xuan, the son of Xiahou Shang, who was originally defending against the enemy in the north of the city, and suddenly heard the shouting behind the back, only to find that the south of the city was breached, and the city was just such a short time of hard work, there were a lot of fires, and I couldn't help but be anxious, where to take care of the Han army in the north of the city, and hurriedly took the men and horses down the city, while shouting loudly, "Fight the fire!" Fight the fire! ”

It's just that at this moment, the city has become a mess, and many Wei troops have gathered to resist the Han army, Xiahou Xuan shouted like this, and the Wei army, which was already a little chaotic, was even more chaotic, and for a while I didn't know whether to fight the fire or resist the Han army.

A ball of fire suddenly burst out, and a red war horse rushed out of the flamelight and went straight to Xiahou Xuan.

In the firelight, Guan Xing single-handedly, but it gave people the feeling that it was like thousands of horses galloping, and wherever he passed, Wei Jun was frightened and subconsciously dodged.

Only one person?

Xiahou Xuan saw someone rushing towards him, and under the firelight, he couldn't see the appearance of the person clearly, but the oppressive breath pressed on his chest, making it difficult for him to breathe, and he was timid in his heart, wanting to dodge.

Although Xiahou Xuan himself is also a general, he is mainly based on metaphysics and politics on weekdays, and his martial arts can be, but he is definitely not the kind of battle formation.

On the battlefield, the momentary hesitation is the difference between life and death, at this moment, seeing the opponent killing, Xiahou Xuan turned around and wanted to run, but was shocked to find that he couldn't hide at all, and when he turned around to meet the enemy, Guan Xing had already killed closer.

Under the imprint of the firelight, a touch of cold light was like water, Xiahou Xuan seemed to capture the knife face, and printed his own shadow upside down, and the next moment, the world began to spin, followed by falling into boundless darkness.

The main general died in battle, the Han army in the rear continued to break through the fire barrier, killed in, not to mention the morale of the other party like a rainbow, just the armor that two or three knives could not be broken, it was called the new Han, now the main general is dead, how dare the surrounding Wei army dare to fight again, under the strangulation of the Han army, the bamboo slips began to collapse, followed by a crazy escape.

Guan Xing slashed the general, and there seemed to be a breath of energy echoing in his chest, making him more and more fierce, fighting back and forth in the Wei army's array, and the Wei army, who only killed, cried for his father and mother, and ran away in embarrassment.

The sky was white, but the fire of the city father was getting stronger and stronger, even if it was the Han army, they didn't have the heart to chase and kill the Wei army at this moment.

The general found Guan Xing in the crowd, stepped forward and grabbed Guan Xing's reins, and shouted, "General, the fire is getting bigger and bigger, and many soldiers have been burned to death, let's withdraw too!" The food and grass are gone! ”

Guan Xing was stunned, wiped a handful of things on his face that he didn't know whether it was sweat or blood, even if the scorching heat wave was not approaching, his hair began to wither and yellow, and he nodded and said, "Sound the horn, let the soldiers of all departments withdraw from the city from the shortest direction, and gather in the south of the city!" ”

"Whoa!" The general agreed.

In the sound of the loud horn, groups of Han soldiers withdrew from the sea of fire one after another, and withdrew from the nearest city gate.

Guan Xing went out of the west gate and returned to the south of the city in a circle, there were a lot fewer soldiers accompanying him, most of them were in the melee, trapped in the fire, even if he rescued him at this moment, he couldn't save it, Guan Xing felt a little uncomfortable, and did not leave immediately, but waited outside the city, waiting for as much as possible.

The fire of the Castle Father did not weaken after dawn, but grew stronger and stronger, until noon, when snowflakes fell in the gloomy sky.

Looking at the city that was still burning, the general said to Guan Xing, "General, this place is the hinterland of the Wei army, it is not suitable to stay for a long time, let's retreat first." ”

Guan Xing nodded, glanced at the burning city, waved his hand, and led the army to retreat.

The fire of the city father did not weaken because of the snow, but became a little stronger, from a distance, the fire around the mist, like a fairyland, perhaps only those soldiers who just came out of the city not long ago, only understand what kind of Shura field is under this beautiful scenery......
