Chapter 17 Peng Cheng is in danger of a clever plan

The southeast wind is blowing slowly, and the stalk is in Pengcheng between the mountains. When Hua Fei rode the wind and rode a horse to Xuzhou, the most important line of defense, Pengcheng. What he saw was that tens of thousands of elite soldiers were following Chen Deng, chasing the southeast wind and rushing out of the city gate.

What he saw was a Pengcheng without elite defense, the city gate was wide open, and only 30,000 people remained! What he heard was the sound of the earth-shattering war drums and the screams that soared into the sky, a terrifying sound mixed together!

Huafei doesn't know why, this situation occurs? But he didn't hesitate for a moment, and immediately shouted for Wu Xu to lead people and rush to close the city gate.

But he flew like a fly, and ran up to the battlements. Raise your eyes and look at him, 'Hiss! That's a breath of cool air into the lungs! He saw Tao Qian surrounded by groups, and Cao Cao's army of 350,000 was in the center.

He finally understood! It must be Tao Qian, an old man, who is impatient to live, and he went out of the city to fight and was besieged. It caused Chen Deng to lead the army out of the city in a hurry, wanting to rescue him. As a result, Pengcheng has become an empty and fortified city that is undefended!

The only two wrestlers left on the side saw such a situation. Hurriedly asked loudly, "Sir, what now?" Why don't we protect you? ”

Hua Fei waved his hand quickly, he knew that the situation was critical! If Pengcheng is undefended, no matter how strong it is, it will be in vain. He knew he was going to run, and it was still too late.

But once he escapes, then Tao Qian will be wiped out! Killing the red-eyed Cao Jun is likely to still slaughter the city! You might even be able to take advantage of the victory!

If he runs away, what will happen to the 30,000 people in this city? But what about those who meet on the road, the poor? But what if you don't run?

There are only seven Yellow Turban wrestlers on his hands now. Even if he is counted, it is not enough to make up the number of hands.

Hua Fei's mind was racing, and he made a decision in an instant. Running is absolutely unavoidable, and he is not yet hard-hearted to the point of being cold-blooded. Don't dare to risk the lives of hundreds of thousands of people, betting that Cao Jun will not open the killing ring!

He knew that if he wanted to protect these innocent lives, the only way at the moment was to defend Pengcheng. And to hold Pengcheng, he must have soldiers, or... Someone's got to do it!

He instantly thought of the more than 30,000 people left behind in the city because he had to dig a ditch in a hurry.

Hua Fei turned his head and rushed to Wu Xu, who closed the city gate and was running up the city wall, shouted: "The seven of you will go and gather immediately, and all the people will come to the city to listen to the order!" Tell them that once Cao's army breaks the city, it will inevitably be slaughtered! If you want to live, come to help me defend the city and find a way to survive together! ”

Wu Xu was in danger, and hurriedly ordered to leave, and in an instant, their shouts sounded under the city. Hua Fei's eyes widened, looking at the two sides who were fighting outside the city.

He keenly noticed that although the situation seemed extremely critical! Danyang soldiers are worthy of being the best in the world! Although he was surrounded by a heavy siege, he was still not flustered, forming a circle with the strongest defense, and he was shouting and resisting.

He saw Cao Cao's central army again, the banner was swaggering, and the order was passed urgently, and two elite soldiers withdrew from the siege and quickly killed Pengcheng. And the 30,000 elite soldiers led by Chen Deng happened to collide head-on, and these two armies wanted to take advantage of the void to steal the city.

Perhaps Chen Deng, who is knowledgeable, also realized that Pengcheng is not to be lost! Quickly commanded 30,000 elites to lay down the formation, and entangled the two stealing armies. Although the Cao army was unable to defeat them quickly, they were unable to defeat them quickly.

Hua Fei quickly thought about how to save Tao Qian? Maybe what he really wants to save is just those elite soldiers. Because he needs them to come back and defend Pengcheng.

Soon there was a jumble of footsteps under the city. Thirty thousand people shouted in a disorderly manner and rushed to the head of the city.

Hua Fei could vaguely hear them shouting: "Quick! Lao Tzu heard it just now, after Cao Jun ordered to kill Tao Qian and capture Pengcheng, he slaughtered all the people in the city, and at the same time the whole army lifted the ban for three days! Go and help Mr. defend the city..."

Hua Fei smiled coldly and said in his heart: "Cao Jun is really self-inflicted!" The so-called lifting of the ban means to lift the ban. In other words, the army is not bound by military law. You can do whatever you want, of course, you can grab it if you want to grab it, and kill it if you want to! ”

Of course, he also knew that this was a way to motivate the soldiers to serve their lives. However, this is not enough to be a reason for Cao Jun to disregard the lives of innocent people! Hua Fei clenched his fists and sneered secretly in his heart: "Want to lift the ban for three days? Let's get past Lao Tzu first! ”

He turned around and rushed to the crowd, pressing down with both hands, and shouting: "Everyone be quiet, listen to me!" ”

Seeing that he pressed down with his hands, he immediately helped and shouted: "Shut up, stop your mouth, shut your beaks, listen to Mr., stop arguing..."

Hua Fei jumped on the battlements, faced the southeast wind, glanced at the crowds of people, waved his right fist and shouted: "Brothers, we were born in troubled times, and we are so poor that we only have one life left!" Now Cao Jun is still going to take away our lives! Do you agree? ”

The poorer the people, the more they dare to fight! Moment: "Don't agree!" The chaotic and excited shouts of "I can't agree..." resounded in the crowd with red faces.

Hua Fei looked at the excited people who couldn't see the edge from the city, waved his hand again and shouted, "What should I do if I don't agree?" Fight with them? ”

"Fight...", the sound of a landslide and tsunami rose into the sky among the wielding tools.

Hua Fei blushed and shouted, "If you want to work hard, you have to be organized, are you willing to obey my command?" ”

"Willing..."

Hua Fei shouted, "Good! Now, at my command, all of them will go down to the city. As long as you can shoot arrows and have a little accuracy, go to the city first and line up and form an archery team! ”

30,000 people acted quickly, and more than 4,000 strong men were separated in an instant. Hua Fei ordered a wrestler to act as a captain. Commanding the archers, they hurried to smash through the spare arsenal, equip and carry weapons, and come to defend the city as fast as possible.

Because he saw that there were too few archers, he gave a loud order, and whoever threw stones far and accurately, stepped forward to listen to the order, and got more than 7,000 people. Hua Fei ordered a wrestler to lead and organized him into a stone-throwing team. They were ordered to quickly pick up stones and other objects, and to defend the city as well.

Then he quickly divided the remaining 20,000 people into two. It is organized into three tobacco teams and four collection teams. Each life force commands.

Ordered the three teams to immediately empty the city, all the baggage and all kinds of vehicles. Load firewood and other combustible items, and quickly rush to the city gate to gather!

He also ordered the fourth team to help the third team pack firewood and other things, and then do their best to collect the combustible materials in the city, along with excrement and torches, and also rush to the city gate to gather.

With his order, more than 30,000 people followed the captain's actions, and instantly became orderly and fast! After the defense is in place, the vehicles are concentrated. Outside the city, there is already a river of blood, and the two Xuzhou military formations are all in danger!

Hua Fei didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly shouted an order: "The three teams obey the order and light the firewood in order!" The four teams splashed excrement and quickly pushed the cart out of the city, stopping at 200 paces. ”

The two teams under the city shouted "Whoa!" ”。 Immediately, the flames of 'boom' rose, and the burning sound of 'crackling...' made a loud noise, and a strong foul smell rose to the sky.

Hua Fei's right hand pressed down violently, and he shouted hoarsely: "Open the city gate!" Rush! ”

In an instant, the city gate opened, and in the shout of "rush, rush, rush", one after another, the flaming chariots, carrying the compelling stench, quickly rushed out of Pengcheng in the thick and choking black smoke. Straight to the battlefield!

The southeast wind is slow, and it is less than tea time. The entire Jiuli Mountain was already covered with smoke clouds, and the black and choking stench of smoke blocked the heaven and earth, and was filled with the armies of both sides who were fighting urgently.

Suddenly, the coughing sound of 'cough cough' continued and sounded one after another. The two armies all coughed and bent down, and for a while on the battlefield, they no longer heard the sound of gold and iron fighting, but only heard the sound of coughing.

Hua Fei ordered everyone to shout in unison: "Sons and daughters of Xuzhou, follow our voice, rush out of the smoke and have a way to live!" Use your voice to guide the direction of the Xuzhou army and guide them to take advantage of the situation to break out of the encirclement.

Restore the first two teams, pay close attention to the firing range, whether there are any enemy troops? Try to kill the enemy with a point shot! Then ordered three or four teams, maintained continuously, and the flames and smoke were not cut off.

Cao Cao's army is in the northwest of Pengcheng, and it is in the limelight! When you open your mouth, a foul smell rushes into your mouth. Caught off guard, he couldn't even deliver the order. Cao Cao coughed half to death, but Dian Wei pulled out of the battlefield with bated breath and headed towards the windless place.

Cao Cao took a few breaths of fresh air, heard Peng Cheng's shouting, and hurriedly ordered Dian Wei to gather the scattered army. They greeted their own army and gathered around him. The two armies fought separately, and Hua Fei only responded to the Xuzhou generals entering the city.

In this battle, Hua Fei was not afraid of danger and turned the tide! He took advantage of the time to gather the hearts of the people and victoriously defended Pengcheng, which had no soldiers!

And rescued Tao Qian and others, and tens of thousands of elite soldiers! It also took advantage of the chaos to fly arrows and stones, killing and injuring countless enemy soldiers. The safety of Xuzhou was temporarily guaranteed.

Hua Fei saw that Tao Qian and all the troops were all disgraced, and they were injured by arrows and were covered in blood! Nearly half of the troops were lost, and even Chen Deng and others were seriously injured, and they couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Tao Qian was protected by all the soldiers to the death, although he was not injured, but he was also greatly frightened! In addition, he was so old that he was so frightened that he only thought about running back to Tancheng overnight!

Hua Fei hurriedly persuaded him, but Tao Qian was frightened and insisted on leaving. Hua Fei had no choice but to ask for his life, willing to guard Pengcheng and the important gateway of Xuzhou.

Tao Qian was rescued by him today, and saw him stand up and be willing to contribute to himself. He left 10,000 elite soldiers and temporarily appointed him as the commander-in-chief of Pengcheng's defense. Because of his official position, he was temporarily promoted to the position of governor. The annual salary is 2,000 stones, which can be regarded as a big official for him!

Then Tao Qian hurriedly took Cao Bao and the seriously injured Chen Deng, and led the army to leave overnight.

Hua Fei couldn't pay attention to this courageous Tao Qian. He knew that Cao Cao had a lot of capable people under his command, and although he suffered a loss today, he would definitely think of a way to break the smoke soon.

Moreover, Cao's army had no food and did not endure a long war. It's bound to be a comeback soon! After Hua Fei thought about it, he first ordered Wu Xu to send someone to connect with the big handsome.

He quickly summoned the commanders of all the departments and came to discuss the law of defending the city. After some inquiry, he finally knew, why would Tao Qian ignore his advice and lead troops into battle? As a result, Peng Cheng was almost lost, and even his old life was almost lost to the enemy!
