By the time Bao Tao had put his men and horses in order and began to prepare for the siege, it was already dark. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Han Yan, who had already finished eating with his soldiers, was sitting upright on his horse and waiting for the siege to begin. Because of the armor and banner, Han Yan could still distinguish the men and horses under Cao Cao and Bao Tao by the light of the torches, but now it seems that the men and horses outside the city wall are all Bao Tao's men and horses.

It's not that Han Yan looks down on Bao Tao, it's really that the military array at this time is really chaotic, and he can't see a little discipline, if he really attacks the city, this Bao Tao's 3,000 people will rush up, and Han Yan doesn't have to think much about the end. With his gaze deflected to the east, Han Yan could immediately see Cao Cao and the others who were ready to go, and looking at their posture, they seemed to have taken advantage of Bao Tao's time to rest for a while.

The three drums of 'dong dong dong', Han Yan couldn't tell where the sound came from, in short, Bao Tao's side was chaotic, and everyone rushed directly to the city wall after hearing the drums.

Of course, Bao Tao is not completely a waste, as far as Han Yan can see, Bao Tao also knows that people can carry the ladder and rush up. I don't know what's going on on the city wall, but there are no torches after dark, and now no one shows up to put an arrow or throw a rolling stone or splash some hot oil or anything at the critical moment of Bao Tao's siege.

At this time, Han Yan looked at the top of the city wall, it was really pitch black, he couldn't see anything, only those soldiers who struggled to climb the city wall under the light of torches.

In the distance, Han Yan heard Bao Tao's shouting, as if to say that whoever can climb the city wall first will have some reward.

Turning his head, Han Yan looked at Hu Min, who was riding a horse on his left hand side, with a sad face, "Tongda, isn't it a little too quiet in this city?" ”

"Lord, did you find out too?" Hearing Han Yan's question, the sadness on Hu Min's face did not decrease, and his eyebrows wrinkled even tighter, "This city is still full of flags during the day, and the soldiers standing on the wall look very strong, but at this time, there is no movement in the siege of the city, it is really ...... Something isn't right! ”

Sun Guan, who was watching from the side, heard the conversation between Han Yan and Hu Min, and also leaned over and said: "It's really not right, if it's not that the people in this city suddenly died, then it must be planning something!" Lord, you have to make arrangements early! ”

"Arrangement? It's time to make arrangements! After listening to Sun Guan's reminder, Han Yan nodded, and after pondering for a while, he raised his head and said, "In this way, Tongda and Yin Li will lead the army to retreat for another five miles, and then Han Sheng will lead the five hundred people from the headquarters to watch with me." Zhongtai, you and Changyun are also by my side. ”

"Huh? Lord, shouldn't we take advantage of them? How can you return the army to five miles? ”

Hu Min, who was about to be ordered to leave, was directly stunned after listening to Han Yan's order, why was this different from what he thought before?

"Alas! Tongda, although you have a very accurate control of the overall situation, but at this time the on-the-spot response is much worse! As he spoke, Han Yan raised his hand and pointed in the direction of Chenggao, and then said: "You see, the walls of this Chenggao are not high, and there are bound to be a lot of soldiers in it. On the other hand, we need a team of people to respond. If you put all your hands into it at once, it's like sprinkling an extra handful of beans in a millstone, and it's useless! ”

"What the lord said is very true!"

Originally, after hearing Han Yan's order, Sun Guan's face was also a little wrong, but after listening to Han Yan's explanation at this time, he couldn't help but have a convincing look on his face.

"That being the case, the lord is careful! Yin Li, let's go! ”

After careful analysis, Hu Min felt that what Han Yan said was very reasonable, coupled with the rapid changes on the battlefield, now was really not the time to think too much, so with a slight arch of his hand, Hu Min immediately shook the silk reins, and beckoned Yin Li to gallop to the soldiers behind him.

"Childe."

After waiting for Hu Min to walk away, Huang Zhong slowly came over and shouted softly with some concern.

"Huh? What's wrong? ”

Han Yan, who was staring at the battlefield intently, subconsciously turned his head after hearing Huang Zhong's shout.

Just when Han Yan turned around, Bao Tao's people had already boarded the city wall, and then the lights of the city were bright, and countless torches were erected, and there were many people, followed by a burst of swords and swords, and the city wall was fighting.

"Childe ......"

Huang Zhong, who originally wanted to persuade Han Yan to retreat with Hu Min, was left with only that title slipping out of his mouth.

The sound of fighting on the city wall became more and more intense, but Han Yan frowned more and more when he saw it, tilted his head slightly, Han Yan looked at Sun Guan, and said: "Zhongtai, why don't you say that the defenders in the city don't defend the city well, and they have to let people fight with them after attacking it?" ”

"This ...... If it weren't for the bad brains of the defenders in the city, there was only one possibility......" Sun Guan said, took a deep breath, and forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, before he continued: "Then it can only be...... He wants to pull us all into this siege and then wipe us out! ”

"Shhh

After listening to Sun Guan's words, Han Yan gasped, but he couldn't say anything.

Indeed, Sun Guan's analysis is the only possibility now, but in this way, Han Yan's heart is even more frightened. According to this speculation, the people in the city must not be willing to let their gang attack the city casually, but plan to use the city wall to tie all these people to this battlefield, and then send troops to wipe out their own gang!

Taking two deep breaths, Han Yan barely calmed down, waved his hand to Huang Zhong beside him, and said, "Han Sheng, you immediately send someone over to inform my brother, no matter what, don't follow Bao Tao to participate in the siege!" Don't! ”

"Don't besiege the city? Scold! Childe, it's too late! With a wry smile, Huang Zhong raised his hand and pointed in the direction of Chenggao, and said softly: "They have already started!" ”

"This ......" Han Yan turned his head to look, only to see that Cao Cao's men and horses were indeed following Bao Tao and the others and began to rush under the city walls of Chenggao, but at this time, Han Yan didn't think much about it, so he could only take a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "It's late, but it's not over yet!" Send someone over at once, and let me take my brother and lead people to withdraw, and if this continues, they will all be buried here!" ”

"Yes! Son! ”

Seeing that Han Yan was so resolute, Huang Zhong didn't have much to say, turned around and called a general on horseback, and hurriedly commanded.

And above the tower, the fighting continued. Maybe the people standing near Chenggao didn't see it very clearly, but Han Yan, who was miles away from Chenggao, could see it clearly, and the other party was waiting for Bao Tao's people to go up and die in an orderly manner! The rows of strong men with large swords, under the cover of their shield-wielding companions, were slaughtering the soldiers who had just climbed the city wall in an orderly manner!

Han Yan didn't know when the other party would get tired of this kind of game, and then led the whole army to rush out of the city amid the sound of war drums, and wiped out his own gang. What Han Yan can do now is only hope that the general who is constantly whipping the horse under his crotch, hoping that it can pass the news to Cao Cao in time, and then Cao Cao can withdraw in time.

The three drums of 'dong', 'dong' and 'dong', Han Yan could distinguish it, and the sound of the war drums came from the city tower!

A series of war drums sounded "Dong Dong", and military flags were erected above the city, and on the big flag in the middle was written a big golden word - 'Xu'! In the sound of war drums, the city gate, which had been blocked by Bao Tao's men and horses with a ladder, had already opened from the inside at this time, and then a volley of spears pierced out of the air, piercing through the soldiers who were climbing the ladder.

Immediately after, the ladder was pushed open, and a neat group of sergeants walked slowly out of the city gate with shields in hand, and began to clear the city gate in an orderly manner. At this time, Huang Zhong's partial generals had just ridden their horses to Cao Cao's army.

Looking at the soldiers pouring out of the city gate, and then looking at the soldiers who stood on the ladder and were stabbed to death, Han Yan only felt that his heart was grabbed by a big hand and was being rubbed fiercely.

"Brother, brother! Did you foresee this situation? Although it is necessary to show force, it cannot be used at all times! You're in such a hurry for quick success! ”

Closing his eyes, Han Yan clenched his fists in some pain and groaned in a low voice.

"Childe, there is chaos on the other side of the city wall, what should we do?"

Huang Zhong, who had been staring at the direction of Chenggao, although he had the heart not to disturb Han Yan at this time, but seeing that the situation was getting more and more erosive, he finally couldn't help but speak.

"Huh? What's wrong? ”

With a clear breath, Han Yan opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Chenggao.

During the time when Han Yan closed his eyes just now, the city gate that had been cleared gradually expanded outside the city, and it was already a distance away, and it was approaching Cao Cao's Chinese army. And just when Han Yan opened his eyes, a roar came from inside the city gate, followed by a rhythmic sound like a war drum, coming out from the city gate.

And Han Yan and the others, who heard this voice, all changed their faces at this time.

Turning his head to look at Sun Guan, Han Yan exclaimed, "It's a cavalry!" ”

"It's a soldier!"

At the same time, Sun Guan also exclaimed.

Before Han Yan could turn around to look at the situation at the city gate, an iron horse had already galloped out of the city gate, slammed through the entire military formation, and roared into the distance.

Han Yan, who had already turned his head, stared at the soldiers who quickly disappeared into the night, his face changed a few times, and he quickly spoke: "Hurry over and let them all leave the battlefield!" ”

"Lord!"

Without waiting for Han Yan to drive the mount under him, Sun Guan had already grabbed Han Yan's wrist and shouted urgently.

"Zhongtai, what's the matter with you!"

Han Yan, who was already a little anxious, couldn't take care of too much at this time, and shouted at Sun Guan as if he was scolding.

"My lord! Looking at the cavalry just now, there were about 1,000 people, and we may not have ...... in the past."

Thinking of the cavalry that rushed out just now, Sun Guan's voice couldn't help but tremble twice.

That's cavalry! Unlike his own generals on horseback, they are serious, cavalry in teams! If you really want to get over, it's not the life of being hunted down?

"Whew! Nakadai, I know what you're trying to say, but we're here to bring them out, not to hedge against those cavalry. Moreover, as I said before, we are going to sweep the battle for them, and now in this situation, don't make a move? Is it possible? Shaking his head slightly at Sun Guan, Han Yan then raised his hand, then stepped forward fiercely for a while, and shouted loudly: "Let me ...... Rush! ”

As soon as the word fell, Han Yan had already rushed out with a shake of the reins.

Sun Guan couldn't persuade Han Yan, so he could only sigh lightly and ride his horse to follow. Huang Zhong looked at Sun Guan's series of performances, smiled slightly, and drove the horse away. As for Chang Xuan, this person didn't have so many ideas, and after Han Yan said that he rushed, he rushed out behind Han Yan. Behind Huang Zhong and the others, five hundred soldiers had already taken steps and hurried towards the battlefield.

I don't know how many people are squeezed away by the horse, Han Yan only felt that there were too many people in front of him, until the mount under him lost the speed of the charge, Han Yan still didn't find Cao Cao, and he didn't feel it at this time...... It's really not easy to find Cao Cao!

With a 'snap', a hand slapped on Han Yan's shoulder armor.

Turning his head to look, Han Yan first saw his hand that had been covered with blood, followed by a face full of blood, but fortunately, Han Yan, who recognized the face under the blood stain in time, did not scream, but did not lose face.

"Youxin, why are you here?"

It was Cao Cao who came to Han Yan's side.

At this time, Cao Cao was sitting on the mount, and the helmet on his head had long since disappeared, and the cloak was scattered, with the blood stain on his face, like a demon who had risen from the ground.

"How did I get here? If I don't come, I won't see you die here? ”

Dodging a big knife that slashed at him, Han Yan followed up with a kick and kicked his attacker to the ground, and the people who followed Cao Cao immediately rushed up and chopped the person to the ground.

Looking carefully, in addition to Cao Hong, who is the leader, there are also several very strong people who follow Cao Cao's side, and they are very good at fighting. However, none of these people could attract Han Yan's attention, listening to the noisy sound in the distance, Han Yan turned his head to look, but saw an eight-foot-long, hero-like person beside Bao Tao, less than thirty years old, at this time with a big knife that he didn't know where to snatch, fighting with his life.
