The soldiers above the camp slept in unison, unaware of the approaching danger.

The obstacles in front of the camp were being cleared at a very fast speed, and Zhu Bao was overjoyed to see that the Xuzhou army was really as negligent as Chen Deng expected, and made a gesture to the cavalry behind him, and five hundred cavalrymen rode their horses to kill the Xuzhou army.

The sound of the galloping horses woke up the sleeping Xuzhou soldiers, and after the soldiers above the camp reacted, the cavalry had already entered the camp.

"Enemy attack!" The camp was in a panic, and many soldiers woke up from their sleep and ran out of the camp before they had time to put on their armor.

One by one, the tents were set on fire, making the soldiers in the camp even more chaotic.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Chen Deng got the news of the enemy's surprise attack, and hurriedly asked: "See how many people and horses are there in the enemy army?" ”

"My lord, it is dark in the camp, and there are about a thousand enemy troops in the shadows."

Chen Deng snorted coldly: "Incompetent, the enemy army is only a thousand people, order the cavalry to block the enemy, and the rest of the generals gather their troops and horses and trap the enemy in the camp." ”

"Whoa."

Zhu Bao led the cavalry not to fight, but in the Xuzhou military camp to kill a trip, then returned to the city, this raid, to dampen the enemy's spirit, when the cavalry of the Xuzhou army reacted, there was no trace of the enemy.

Chen Deng was annoyed, last night he had told the generals in the army to beware of the enemy's sneak attack, but he didn't expect that the generals below just took his words as a deaf ear, and directly killed the generals in charge of patrolling the night.

Hua Xiong's troops were not stationed with Chen Deng, he maintained a certain vigilance against Chen Deng, seeing that the enemy army was really attacking the camp at night, Hua Xiong was shocked into a cold sweat, and the secret road was so dangerous, Chen Deng had more than 20,000 people under his command, and he was so panicked by the enemy army, if this situation was put on him, it would not have a good result.

Zhu Bao successfully attacked the enemy, Zhu Shu was extremely excited, this was a long-faced thing, and his gaze at Chen Gong also had a trace of respect.

For five days in a row, the Xuzhou army did not attack the city, but in the construction of siege equipment, for the Xuzhou army sent people to send the war book, directly by Zhu Shu thrown aside, the number of disadvantage, the elite of the soldiers is not as good as the Xuzhou army, he does not think that a simple victory, can defeat nearly 30,000 Xuzhou army.

"Mr. Chen, the Xuzhou army is building siege equipment, and it will attack the city in a few days, Mr. has a good strategy to break the enemy." Zhu Shu set his sights on Chen Gong.

Chen Gong said: "At present, the most important thing is how to hold the county, as long as the county is not lost, the enemy army is numerous, and the grain and grass are difficult to continue, the army will definitely be withdrawn." ”

"Mr. Chen, behind the Xuzhou army is Cao Jun, and it is rumored that Cao Jun's thunderbolt can throw boulders from under the city to the city, which is extremely powerful." Zhu Shu said worriedly.

"It doesn't matter, if the Xuzhou army has such a sharp weapon as the thunderbolt, it will definitely be placed outside the city, it can be seen that Cao Cao did not hand over such an important thing to Chen Deng, even if Cao Cao supports the thunderbolt, there is no need to worry, just a fire from the cavalry, the thunderbolt can be burned." Chen Gong's tone was full of confidence.

Zhu Shu said: "Then there will be Mr. Lao Chen." ”

Although the momentum of the Xuzhou army attacking the city is very fierce, but the defenders have 10,000 people, with 30,000 soldiers and horses, they want to capture the city with 10,000 people guarding the city, it is very difficult, the siege of the city for several days in a row, the city wall is full of bloodstains, and the Xuzhou army after paying a greater price, it is also to fill in the moat.

Although the defenders were negligent in training and had the advantage of the city, after the initial panic, they gradually adapted to the siege of the Xuzhou army, and their eyes on the enemy were not as fearful as before.

"Lord Chen, according to the current situation, even if we break through the county, our army will be almost consumed, and I don't know when the thunderbolt car of Shanyang Hou will be able to arrive." Hua Xiong asked, the war has reached this point, he already has the idea of withdrawing his troops, and after a few days of siege, the soldiers under his command have lost thousands of people.

Chen Deng said: "General Hua doesn't need to be anxious, the thunderbolt will arrive in a few days." ”

"If the thunderbolt can't arrive, General Ben won't send a single soldier." Hua Xiong snorted coldly.

"Could it be that General Fei wants to disobey the orders of the Marquis of Shanyang." Chen Deng asked with an unkind face.

"Use Shanyang Hou to suppress General Ben, does Lord Chen think General Ben will be afraid?"

Compared with the low morale outside the city, the situation inside the city is much better, Zhu Shu has also been relieved from the initial tension, and he has not paid the initial attention to Chen Gong, because since Chen Gong arrived to offer advice to attack the Xuzhou army, there has been no other strategy, which will inevitably make Zhu Shu a little contemptuous.

Seeing this situation, Zang Ba wondered: "Sir, why don't you help Donghai repel the enemy army as soon as possible?" ”

"General, if the Xuzhou army is repelled too early, maybe Cao Cao will be jealous and lead his troops to attack the East China Sea, will the general think the East China Sea can be held at that time?" Chen Gong said slowly: "The East China Sea Taishou Zhu Shu doesn't have much ability, so you might as well let Cao Jun consume his strength and wait for the coming day." ”

Zang Ba heard this, there is nothing to think about allies at this time, he and Zhu Shu formed an alliance, that is because they have a common enemy, once the enemy retreats, the two will become a competitive relationship, they are neighbors, and they don't want each other to sit big.

Chen Deng and Hua Xiong reached a stalemate, and the matter of attacking Yan County was temporarily shelved.

Although Hua Xiong was not afraid of Chen Deng, he was afraid of Cao Cao, and he did not dare to really offend Cao Cao, so he led a hundred cavalry to fight non-stop outside the city, shouting and scolding.

After the news of Hua Xiong's battle outside the city reached the city, Zhu Shu said angrily: "Hua Xiong led a hundred people to dare to fight outside the city, General Zhu, this official ordered people to order three hundred cavalry to go out of the city to defeat them." ”

After the success of the sneak attack on the Xuzhou army, Zhu Shu did not pay attention to Chen Deng before, and in his opinion, the Xuzhou army was no more than Erer, and even the treatment of Zang Ba and Chen Gong did not have the previous respect.

In this regard, Chen Gong didn't mind, what he wanted was not only to repel Cao Jun, but also to make Zhu Shu pay a certain price, although Lang Xie was good, it was always a little small, if Zhu Shu could lose a little more, the East China Sea would become a vassal of Lang Xie in the future, and he had to follow his orders.

The existence of the East China Sea is a barrier for Lang Evil, and it is better to control this barrier in his own hands.

Sun Guan on the side said in a low voice: "This wish Shu Haosheng is rude, how eager the general and Mr. He led the cavalry to rescue at the beginning, but now it is this face." Although Chen Gong was a literati, he used his strategy to impress the generals under Zang Ba.

Zang Ba glared and said, "Don't talk nonsense. ”
