The next day, after receiving Fuquan's instructions, the Han soldiers who had been stagnant immediately continued to work overtime, and their goal was to directly target the rebels stationed under the city wall of the county town of Exian.

After hollowing out the foundation of the county seat of Exian County, the foundation was patched with wood soaked in grease, and because it was summer, there were many dry weeds outside the wilderness, Fuquan specially ordered a team of soldiers to go and collect them, and piled them under the foundation of the city wall with the wood, and when the time came, they burned the foundation, destroyed the city wall, and led the troops into the city.

At night, Guan Yu, who looked tired but couldn't hold back his excitement, came out of the tunnel, and the last soldiers to place wood and weeds were his men. After Guan Yu said to Fu Quan, "Everything is ready", Fu Quan ordered the four thousand soldiers he had arranged to rest on the spot, and the third watch had breakfast, and the fifth watch was ready to attack the city.

"Whew!"

Fu Quan let out a sigh of relief, looking at the county seat of Exian County in the distance at night, its city was still brightly lit, and he didn't know what kind of terrible things would happen tomorrow in this dark night. Thinking about what was going to happen, Fu Quan's heart was hot, and he didn't know what kind of expression the rebels in the city would have when the walls of the tall and sturdy county town of Exian collapsed.

Time passed minute by minute, and the night did not know how many evils were devouring, but for the four thousand barbarians who were in the woods at this moment, they who participated in digging tunnels and stacking timber and weeds, but they knew in their hearts what terrible things would happen tonight in the distant county seat of Exian.

When the moonlight faded and there were signs of whitening in the east, countless barbarians who had rested for the night were woken up and assembled and ate their meals. Of course, it is not necessarily true to say that they are resting, after all, they all know that they are acting tonight, and most of them are thinking about the seizure of the city, how to rest well, at best, they just close their eyes and relax some fatigue.

Under an old tree in the woods, Fu Quan leaned here and looked at the big tree with a lot of thoughts, and finally opened his hazy sleepy eyes under the call of his own soldiers, and looked at him as if he had slept very comfortably this night. Actually, not necessarily, Fuquan didn't sleep well at all in the first half of the night, after all, his mind was full of sneak attacks, and he didn't sleep hastily until the second half of the night, and was called up by his own soldiers again.

After receiving the dried rice and dried meat sent by the soldiers, he ate a breakfast with the warm water in the skin bag, which was very simple, if it wasn't for the warm water that was boiled in the skin bag last night to assist in the food, I am afraid that Fuquan can only drink cold water now.

The reason why this is so is because in order to ensure the suddenness of the raid, Fu Quan ordered all the generals under his command not to make a fire, after all, once a fire is lit here to make food, it will not attract the attention of the rebels on the upper floor of the county town of Exian County, and even if the city wall collapses, it will not achieve the purpose of the raid, not to mention that Fu Quan does not want Zhao Kai's Jingzhou army to know the situation in advance, so naturally he will not allow the soldiers to make a fire.

Fortunately, it is still summer, and the temperature is high at night, so the water in the skin bag is not cool, otherwise Fuquan feels uncomfortable when he thinks of the cold water at night and the cold water. After eating, he found the morning dew and washed his face casually, the coldness of the dew soon made Fuquan wake up a lot, and the sleepiness that he had been still there when he ate quickly disappeared, and then he went to the troops and horses that had already been assembled.

At this time, in the woods, the four thousand Han soldiers who were preparing to attack the city were assembled in the night, and under the leadership of the generals and officers of the various departments, they held the weapons in their hands, and looked up at the very quiet Exian county in the distance, while waiting for the signal to attack the city, that is, the city wall of the Exian county town that was about to collapse, after all, the city wall did not fall, and they could not attack the city with their bodies.

These days, Zhao Kai's Jingzhou army Exian county town has been surrounded for dozens of days, which has long made the Exian rebel army familiar with how to defend the city, in order to prevent the Han army from climbing and capturing the city at night, there are fires on the city wall every other distance, and the rebel army patrolling back and forth has never stopped, always monitoring the situation under the city. From time to time, rebels threw torches from the top of the city downward, and used the light of the torches to check whether there was a Han army lurking below, because the Jingzhou army also tried several night raids, so that the rebels in Exian County grew up rapidly in several contacts with the Han army.

Of course, although the rebels are very cautious and extremely cautious, but after all, it is night, and there are not many rebels who arrange patrols, and there are only more than 100 rebels patrolling in the head of Exian County at the moment, and it is enough to deal with ordinary night attacks, but it is obviously useless to deal with Fuquan's night attacks.

Night, for the attacker has a natural advantage, for the defender is a big disadvantage, throughout the ages, many siege battles are happening at night, especially before dawn, because this time is the most tired and most relaxed time, which is also the reason why Fuquan chose the third watch breakfast, the fifth watch siege.

There are four gates in the county seat of Exian County, except for the patrol troops scattered in the four gates, each with more than 20 people, the other defenders are resting, and most of them are dozing off the wall on the spot. Don't look at them so lazy, but once something unexpected happens, they will immediately wake up and enter a state of alert combat, so to speak, the war has trained them to be so "neurotic",

Looking at the city head where the firelight shook and the figures flickered, Fu Quan's eyes swept over all the soldiers under his command hidden in the woods, and then nodded fiercely to Guan Yu behind him, who immediately understood, and hurriedly sent a few of his own soldiers down the tunnel, they will go to ignite the foundation under the city wall in the west of Exian County, but the west is where the foundation dug out by the soldiers under the command of Fuquan is located.

As those soldiers got down the tunnel, all the generals and soldiers of the Han army also slowly walked towards the county seat of Exian County under the nod of Fu Quan. The foundation does not collapse as soon as it burns, it takes time, and it also takes time for the soldiers sent to light the fire to run under the city wall of Exian County, in order to ensure the time difference, and at the same time not let others find the abnormality, Fuquan finally decided that the army was about to attack the city when it marched to the vicinity of the county seat of Exian County, and then quietly waited for the moment when the city wall collapsed.

I don't know how long it took, but the 4,000 army had already dispersed and assembled outside the western city of Exian County, waiting anxiously in the sight of the rebels. The wall did not fall for a moment, and they could not calm their hearts beating at this moment, until there seemed to be a slight tremor on the ground, and everyone felt as if they had been shaken several times, and then they saw a scene that amazed them.

The city wall in the west of Exian County, which made the Han army stop for many days and cost the lives of countless Han soldiers, is slowly sinking......

The city wall in the west of Exian County has collapsed!
