Chapter 286: Inside and Outside

Zhang Lai led the troops back to the city of Huangxian, and was already exhausted, so he ordered the soldiers to rest in the city and went up to the city tower. In a battle with Liu Xuan www.biquge.info he was ambushed and lost, and the losses were quite large.

For Liu Xuan, Zhang Lai is no longer thinking about defeating Liu Xuan, but it is enough to hold Huang County, he has experienced the previous ambush, has lost his ambition, and does not plan to attack out of the city again.

Zhang Lai instructed the physician to treat the wounded soldiers, and let the uninjured soldiers rest in the city.

It's just that the morale of the soldiers under Zhang Lai's command is a little low.

Defeated, naturally.

In order to boost morale, Zhang Lai personally walked around the army and told the soldiers that there was fairy water in the army. As long as there is fairy water, it is enough to resist the attacks of officers and soldiers.

Zhang Lai threw out the fairy water, which calmed the turbulent military heart a little.

Time flowed like water, and the sky gradually darkened.

On the castle tower, torches have been lit.

Zhang Lai was worried that Liu Xuan would attack the city at night, so he ordered the soldiers to guard it before going to rest.

The moon is like a hook, and there is a hint of coldness in the March night.

The Yellow Turban soldiers on the city tower have experienced a great battle during the day, and now they have to stay up all night to guard the city tower, all of them are exhausted, and they just symbolically stand guard on the city tower.

"Babble!"

Hundreds of feet away from the city, the ground resounded with the sound of rustling footsteps.

On the official road, figures flickered.

These figures are the officers and soldiers under Liu Xuan's command.

Guan Hai and Zhou Cang each led five hundred soldiers and quietly approached the city tower. Although there is a waning moon in the sky, under the light of the torches on the castle tower, you can only see through the ten zhang range outside the castle tower, and you can't see it clearly from any distance.

So, this gives you an opportunity.

Guan Hai and Zhou Cang led the soldiers forward, and each soldier took a piece of mouth to avoid making a sound. After a short time, everyone had come to a stop twenty feet away from the city.

All the soldiers crouched on the ground, staring at the tower.

Guan Hai and Zhou Cang didn't make any moves, but waited quietly.

Wait for the opportunity!

At this moment, Guan Hai and Zhou Cang are still waiting for an opportunity.

In the city of Huangxian County, below the city tower.

There is a team of Yellow Turban soldiers stationed here, ready to support the defense of the castle tower at any time.

The soldiers are resting and recuperating.

Inside a tent, snoring was like thunder, and the soldiers who had experienced the great battle during the day had fallen asleep. At this time, a soldier in a yellow turban uniform suddenly opened his eyes, he glanced at the soldiers in the big tent, and quietly got up and walked out of the tent.

The soldiers came to the door of the tent and crouched, did not make any move, but waited quietly. After a while, the rest of the camps also quietly walked out one after another, echoing the people who came out like a code.

About a quarter of an hour later, people came out of the tents.

The men gathered together, nodded to each other, and then turned and went into their tents.

It didn't take long for soldiers in the uniforms of yellow turban soldiers to come out of each camp. These people gathered quickly with solemn expressions. The number of people piled up, and there were more than 300 people.

The marquis at the head looked up at the castle tower, and then his gaze fell on the position of the city gate in the distance.

Inside the city gates, there were ten Yellow Turban soldiers stationed there.

The military marquis's eyes were cold, and with a wave of his hand, he walked towards the gate of the city. More than 300 soldiers under his command also followed, quietly approaching the soldiers stationed inside the city gate.

When the distance was less than ten zhang, the Yellow Turban soldiers stationed there found someone and scolded with a straight face: "Stop! ”

The marquis didn't seem to hear it, and he didn't stop taking a step.

Seeing that the situation was not quite right, the Yellow Turban soldiers stationed there yelled: "Stop, don't stop, Hugh will not be polite." ”

"Kill!"

The marquis's eyes widened, and with a roar, he drew his sword and rushed forward.

The distance between the two sides is less than ten zhang.

More than 300 soldiers followed closely behind the marquis, rushing forward quickly.

In a blink of an eye, he had rushed to the gate of the city.

"Enemy attack! There are enemy attacks. ”

The Yellow Turban soldiers stationed there roared, and as soon as his words fell, the military marquis who rushed up had already slashed down with a knife. The Yellow Turban raised the spear in his hand to resist, only to hear a click, and the knife actually split the spear.

The blade fell, and with a pop, the blade had already slashed the Yellow Turban's neck, killing the Yellow Turban. The rest of the soldiers rushed forward and killed the rest of the Yellow Turbans guarding the door in the blink of an eye.

The gate of the city was lost in an instant.

This movement alarmed the Yellow Turban soldiers stationed on the city tower.

The Yellow Turban soldiers on the tower began to rush down, trying to prevent the marquis from opening the city gate.

The military marquis looked calm and ordered: "Open the city gate and light the torch to signal." ”

The soldiers moved, and the latch inside the gate was lifted, and then the gate was pushed open. Torches were lit, arrows rose into the air, and in an instant, a sharp sound was heard in the air.

At this time, the Yellow Turban soldiers were already rushing to the city gate to regain control of the city gate.

The moment Guan Hai saw the city gate open, he stood up and said, "Kill!" ”

"Kill!"

Zhou Cang immediately reacted, roared and rushed out with a knife.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

A thousand soldiers followed Guan Hai and Zhou Cang and rushed quickly towards the city gate.

The distance of twenty zhang was not far away, and under the rapid charge of a thousand soldiers, it approached the city gate in the blink of an eye.

The Yellow Turban soldiers on the city tower approached the city gate as quickly as possible, and after a short time, they fought with the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate. The two sides fought, and the 300 soldiers guarding the city gate fought hard to resist the attack from the Yellow Turban soldiers. When Guan Hai and Zhou Cang arrived, the army directly covered up and completely occupied the city gate.

Zhang Lai came out of the city tower and saw that the city gate was lost, and before he had time to figure out what was going on, the generals were already rushing over in a panic.

"Heavenly Master, it's not good, the soldiers in the city have rebelled."

"Heavenly Master, the city gate has been lost, retreat quickly."

"Heavenly Master, what should I do?"

The words came into Zhang Lai's ears, and Zhang Lai's mood became extremely irritable.

"Boom! Boom! ”

Outside the city, a dull beat of war drums suddenly sounded.

The drums beat higher and faster, as if they were beating on Zhanglai's heart.

Suddenly, torches were lit outside the city tower. Where the fire shone brightly, a dense army appeared. The army quickly approached the gates of the city.

"Defeated, really defeated!"

Zhang Lai muttered to himself, until now he didn't understand how his soldiers could defect?

But at this time, Zhang Lai couldn't care so much. He decisively ordered: "Withdraw, break through immediately." All Zhang Lai could think of at the moment was to break through and leave, he didn't want to be captured alive.

Zhang Lai rushed to the bottom of the tower with the generals and soldiers under his command in a panic, and after getting off the tower, he did not break through the tower controlled by Guan Hai, but rushed to the gate in other directions, intending to break through from elsewhere.
