The first siege of the Xuzhou army ended in failure under the rain of stones and arrows thrown by the Cao army.

Outside Shouchun City, there were corpses of the Xuzhou army everywhere.

Some Xuzhou troops who cleaned up the battlefield dug deep pits not far from the Shouchun City Gate and threw the bodies of their comrades into the pit one by one.

In the first attack, no one successfully climbed the city wall at all.

Of the Cao army at the head of the city, only a few were wounded by the feather arrows fired from the city.

However, the Xuzhou army that besieged the city suffered heavy casualties.

Guo Xin stood on the city wall and looked at the Xuzhou army outside the city.

"Ma'am, the enemy may attack at any time." Pang Tong came to her side, clenched his fists and said, "Please leave here." ”

"I'm the Fire Dance Battalion Master." Guo Xin said indifferently: "Since my husband asked me to give advice to the Fire Dance Camp, I have to find ways to make them make more meritorious achievements." ”

"With all due respect." Pang Tong said: "Although the Fire Dance Camp is good, now is not the time to use them. ”

"I know." Guo Xin said: "Even if General Pang asks the Fire Dance Battalion to fight now, I will not agree. I just want to see where the enemy comes from. ”

"If Madame wants to know this, just ask me." Pang Tong said: "It is Liu Xuande's brother Guan Yunchang who led the troops here. Looking at the enemy's position, it should be around 10,000 people. Liu Xuande defrauded 1,500 soldiers from Cao Gong, and some were exterminated by Gongzi, and the rest were left by him as guards. It can be inferred from this that the soldiers and horses brought by Guan Yunchang are all newly recruited. ”

"After not too long of training, these people came to attack the city, what is the difference between them and the Yellow Turban thieves back then?" Guo Xin said: "There are a large number of Yellow Turban thieves, and they count 100,000 people every time they attack the city, but it is always difficult to make achievements. ”

"That's what Madame said." Pang Tong said: "Because of this, I don't have to worry about the enemy army being able to break through the city. The only thing to worry about is that the cloud chief is alone. ”

"Guan Yunchang has nothing to worry about." While the two were talking, Wang Yan and Qingwu walked over, and Wang Yan said, "If he enters the city, I'll deal with him." ”

The two walked over, and Pang Tong saluted them again and said: "Guan Yunchang is not an ordinary general with troops, he has extraordinary martial arts, and for so many years, Liu Bei has relied on him and Zhang Fei. ”

"I've heard of these two people." Wang Yan said: "I also want to meet him for a while to see what kind of person he dares to go against my husband." ”

Guo Xin and the others were on the city wall, and Pang Tong only felt that one head was two big.

Pang Tong couldn't understand how he could easily navigate among these women in Cao Shuo's back house, and each of them had some skills.

"What's next for General Pang?" Guo Xin asked.

"Guan Yunchang attacked the city, all he wanted was to take Shouchun and let the son lose his foundation." Pang Tong said: "But Shouchun City is not easy for him to break. ”

Guo Xin nodded and said, "General Pang is right, but I think we should take precautions." ”

"Madame mean ......," Pang Tong asked.

"Although the enemy's first attack on the city is unfavorable, there will be a second and third time." Guo Xin said: "If they attack the city, the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

"Madame wants to ......" Pang Tong understood what Guo Xin meant, but he didn't say it thoroughly.

"Fire Dance should go to town." Guo Xin said: "When the enemy army attacked the city, they just sat under the battlements and waited. In the event that an enemy army climbs the city wall and Fire Dance suddenly attacks, as many enemy troops as possible can be suppressed. ”

"That's what the two ladies mean?" Pang Tong asked Wang Yan and Qingwu.

"Mrs. Guo is a fire dance military master, and her husband has specially instructed her to make major decisions." Wang Yan said: "What she means is what we mean." ”

"Since several ladies think so, I have no choice but to obey." Pang Tong responded with a fist.

As soon as his words fell, Qingwu walked to the edge of the inner city wall and shouted to the city: "Mrs. Jia, you can let them all come up." ”

After the light dance's words were spoken, Jia Pei led more than 300 fire dancers to the city wall.

Seeing that all the fire dances had come to the city, Pang Tong was suddenly full of black lines.

The three ladies said that they had come to him to discuss, and in fact they had already made arrangements, and when he nodded, they let Huo Wu all go up to the city wall.

"The herald is to dance with fire, and the enemy must not show his head when attacking the city." The fire danced on the city, and Guo Xin said: "If the enemy army climbs the city wall, it is allowed to fight nearby." ”

The fire dances have responded.

Guo Xin said to Wang Yan and the others: "Let them stay here to practice, we are useless here, let's go back first." ”

"It's all up to my sister." Wang Yan and others said.

Guo Xin said to Pang Tong again: "The fire dance has been handed over to General Pang, and I ask General Pang to make good use of it." ”

"Madame, don't worry." Pang Tong said: "I will definitely return it in good condition." ”

Seeing Guo Xin and the others get off the city wall, Pang Tong said to Huo Wu at the head of the city: "Ladies and gentlemen, just now Madame has ordered that when the enemy army attacks the city, you must not get up to meet the battle, unless there is an enemy on the city wall. ”

The fires danced and dispersed, and at intervals a man crouched under the battlements.

Although most of the people in the fire dance camp are men, there are also some women.

The number of women is small, but it brings an unusual atmosphere to the city.

The defenders of the city will inadvertently set their eyes on them.

The female fire dance who went up to the city wall didn't care about being watched.

They crouched behind the battlements, swords pressed one by one, ready to strike at any moment.

The crouching posture of the fire dance is very particular.

With their squatting position, no matter how long it takes, their legs will not go numb.

This is also a very necessary part of the training that Fire Dance receives.

Seeing that the fire dances were ready, Pang Tong came to the battlements again, and looked at the Xuzhou army in the distance with the battlements.

Leaving the city wall, Wang Yan asked Guo Xin, "Why does my sister have to go to the top of the city with Huo Wu?" I don't think General Pang's face is too good. ”

"If you have to take responsibility, of course his face will not be good." Guo Xin said: "When the fire dance is handed over to him, he has to take care of it, in case the fire dance has three long and two short, how can he explain it when the husband comes back?" ”

"Since my sister knows, why did she give him Fire Dance?" Wang Yan asked puzzled.

"Fire Dance is used by the husband to carry out special military duties." Guo Xin said: "The three battalions of Flying Bear, Dragon Pattern and Broken Formation can all follow Fujun to kill the enemy, but Huo Wu has to stay in Shouchun. If I don't give them some opportunities, how can they grow? ”

Wang Yan and the others nodded one after another.

Compared to the other three battalions, the Fire Dance Camp did have too little experience.

The skills they practiced were not suitable for fighting in battle formations, and it was still okay to suddenly attack when defending the city.

Guo Xin's arrangement happened to conform to the characteristics of the fire dance.
