Pengcheng has a long history, as early as four or five thousand years ago was the capital of the emperor, according to the pre-Qin classic "Shiben" record, "Zhuolu in Pengcheng, the capital of the Yellow Emperor." ”

Since the unification of the six countries by Qin, the implementation of the county system, through the two Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms, the Wei and Jin dynasties, in the period of more than hundreds of years, or the capital of Pengcheng Domain, or the county of Pengcheng, or the governance of Xuzhou Prefecture, Pengcheng has always been the political, economic, cultural and military center of Xuzhou.

Pengcheng, "Huaihai in the east, the Central Plains in the west, Jianghuai in the south, Qilu in the north", known as the "thoroughfare of the five provinces", is the gateway of Xuzhou, once Pengcheng is lost, the enemy can drive straight into, all over Xuzhou.

The primary target of the Hu people into Xuzhou is Pengcheng, originally Wang Sang and Zhao Gu thought that as soon as the army arrived, all parts of Xuzhou would be expected to fall from the wind, who knew that an ancestor appeared halfway, and the battle of Liuxian not only lost the general Zhao Dan, but also lost 3,000 elite cavalry.

This battle completely made the Hu people put away their hearts to underestimate Xuzhou, and with the help of Sima Ao, Wang Sang and Zhao Gu have always been well aware of every move in Pengcheng. Some time ago, when Pei Dun appeared in Pengcheng, the two of them wanted to take the opportunity to surround Pengcheng, but in the end they gave up because of Sima Ao's strong opposition.

On the same day, Sima Ao earnestly advised: "If the general wants to win Xuzhou, he must first remove the ancestors and Wei!" But if you want to get rid of these two, you have to Pei Dun! The two generals waited for a while, and it was expected that there would be chaos in Pengcheng soon, and when the time came, the general would do it himself, and Zu Wei and the two would leave on their own. ”

At that time, Wang Sang and Zhao Gu were still suspicious, but they didn't expect that everything that happened in Pengcheng recently was actually said by Sima Ao, and now they can be regarded as putting their hearts in their stomachs, just waiting for Pengcheng to change greatly.

Sure enough, within a few days, Wei Shuo left with 3,000 elite soldiers in a fit of rage, and Zu Ti, who Wang Sang and Zhao Gu regarded as confidants, was also secretly seized by Pei Dun and assigned to Xiaopei to garrison.

"Hahaha, Mr. Sima is clever, that Pei Dun Lao'er really cut off his arm! Now that Zu Ti has lost his military power, and Pengcheng has lost 3,000 elite soldiers, it can be said that the time is ripe to capture Pengcheng! Wang Sangzhi said proudly.

"This is all relying on the tiger power of the two generals, and they dare not take credit for it." Despite his great achievements, Sima Ao was still very humble in Wang and Zhao.

"That, Sima Ao, don't worry, when Pengcheng is broken, I will catch Pei Dun and avenge you." Zhao Gu also looked at Sima Ao a lot at this time, and he was happy and didn't forget to give him a promise.

"General Xie is very loving, and he is in the next Minggan."

"Hahaha, well, as long as you do your best to assist my two brothers, you will be indispensable in the future. When Pengcheng is taken, the general will be rewarded again. ”

……

That night, at the third watch, Wang Sang and Zhao Gu took a large army, with horses and people, and quietly lurked ten miles outside the west gate of Pengcheng, waiting for the news of the eyeliner in the city. Wang Sang and Zhao Gu stared anxiously in the direction of Pengcheng, and couldn't help but look at the slightest disturbance.

"I said Mr. Sima, why haven't your people come yet? Did something go wrong? Zhao Gu was short-tempered, and after waiting for a long time and not seeing anyone connect, he couldn't help but be a little anxious.

Sima Ao said calmly: "Please calm down the general, wait a little longer, Neiying will come soon." ”

Before the words fell, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves in front, and everyone looked into the distance, and sure enough, there was a faint horse in the night in this direction, galloping.

I saw someone jump off the horse, knelt down in front of Sima Ao, and said: "Changshi, the little one has finally looked forward to you!" ”

"Don't be busy talking about the old days, you can first introduce the situation in Pengcheng to General Wang and General Zhao." Sima Ao's words interrupted his henchman's intention to reminisce, and only asked him to introduce the situation in Pengcheng first.

"No! Qi two generals, tonight our men will be in charge of the defense of the west gate of Pengcheng, as long as the army can quietly reach the city, we can open the west gate from the inside, and then Pengcheng will be self-defeating. ”

"Is there anyone in Pengcheng who has discovered our whereabouts now?"

"No, in the past few days, Pei Dun has been busy cleaning up Zu Ti's influence in the city with the family, and no one pays attention to the city defense at all, otherwise we would not be able to easily control Ximen."

After getting the exact news, Wang Sang and Zhao Gu couldn't help but be overjoyed. The two of them asked again, "Where is Zu Ti now?" ”

"General Zu is now assigned to Xiaopei by Lord Assassin Shi, it is said that after the guard Cao left, General Zu fell out with Pei Tingshi, and General Zu took his subordinates to Xiaopei in the northwest of Xuzhou in a fit of anger."

After Wang Sang learned that Zu Xiao Pei had arrived, he couldn't help but sneer: "Hey! It seems that Pei Dun wants Zu Ti to act as the northwest barrier of Pengcheng, but I didn't expect that we would have come to the west of Pengcheng from Liuxian County a long time ago! Now Pei Dun is going to steal chickens and rice! ”

"Mr. Sima, if my two brothers are lucky enough to be in charge of Xuzhou in the future, it all depends on Mr. Sima's plan today! If it hadn't been for Mr. Yesterday's dissuasion, there would have been no Pei Dun's self-cutting arm today. ”

"Thank you General for your love, but this is Pei Dun's own death, what does it have to do with something? Pei Dun seems to be wide on the outside, but he is jealous on the inside, if he wasn't jealous, he wouldn't have fallen to this point! Fortunately, I met two generals, and I was able to show my strengths in the next place. When he becomes famous, he has nothing else to ask for, just hand over Pei Dun and Wei Shuo to the next for disposal! ”

"Hahaha, please rest assured, sir, as long as you do your best to assist our two brothers, we will definitely help you avenge your hatred in the future!"

"The generals will listen to the order: the whole army has a rank, a horse rank, and a quick soldier to Pengcheng!"

"No!"

Under an order, the 20,000 army, under the leadership of Wang Sang and Zhao Gu, quietly galloped towards Pengcheng. Looking at the looming Peng Cheng, Wang Sang and Zhao Gu were excited, and the success or failure of planning for a long time depends on today!

In fact, when it comes to Pei, Zu, and Wei, Sima Ao's most fearful is Wei Shuo, after all, it was Wei Shuo who drove him out of Xuzhou at the beginning, and Wei Shuo is the best at training, and most of his subordinates are tigers and wolves!

Although Zu Ti is experienced in a hundred battles and resourceful, if he does not have Wei Shuo's cooperation, he is a toothless tiger. As for Pei Dun, Sima Ao didn't take his former boss seriously at all.

These days, Sima Ao has been persuading Wang Sang and Zhao Gu to hide their whereabouts, not to rush to capture Pengcheng, and just wait for the internal contradictions in Pengcheng to break out, and just take advantage of the situation. Sure enough, it didn't take long for Wei Shuo and Zu Ti to fall out with Pei Dun, and now Wei Shuo and his subordinates are missing, and Zu Ti is a soldier Xiaopei, which is equivalent to breaking Pei Dun's arm without much effort.

"Mr. Sima is really powerful, now there are less than 10,000 soldiers and horses left in Pengcheng, and the West Gate is under the control of the army's eyeline, just wait for the city gate to open and welcome us into the city." finally saw the hope of taking Pengcheng, and Wang Sang and Zhao Gu could finally come down easily.

Since entering Xuzhou, Wang Sang and Zhao Gu have not been successful, first the battle of Liuxian lost the general Zhao Dan and 3,000 elite cavalry, and then Zu Ti appeared in Pengcheng, adding a few variables. Fortunately, Pei Dun's stupid hat played himself to death.

At the same time, Pei Dun in Pengcheng didn't expect that the Hu people would come at this time, he had just driven away Zu Ti and Wei Shuo, and he was complacent.

In the Assassin's Mansion, Pei Dun drank and had fun with the children of the family, and at the same time imagined that he would command the army to defeat the invading Hu people, and then become famous all over the world, and return to Jiangdong like a savior.

"Humph! Without you, Zu Shizhi, wouldn't I be able to beat the Hu people? With just the few men and horses of the Hu people, how could they attack Pengcheng, which was guarded by a large army? Pei Dun drank the wine and secretly discussed it to himself.

The reason why he dared to bring his ancestors to Xiaopei was nothing more than relying on the tall walls of Pengcheng and the nearly 10,000 troops in the city. In Pei Dun's opinion, he has a heavy army in his hands and guards the fortified city, as long as he does not go out of the city to fight, what can the 20,000 Hu people outside the city withstand him? But he didn't know that he was nothing but a waste in the eyes of his enemies.

Just when Pei Dun fell into a beautiful fantasy and couldn't extricate himself, he suddenly heard a shout of killing outside.

"Kill! Capture Pei Dun alive! ”

"The city is broken! The Hu people have entered the city! Run! ”

"What's going on?" Pei Dun's face changed greatly, and he asked again and again.

At this time, the little official ran in with a panicked face and shouted, "Lord Thorn Shi is not good!" The Hu people have entered the city! ”
