Tianhai and Night Thorn opened Penglai, not only Cao Cao learned about it, but Yuan Shao also got the news.

Glaring at the soldier who reported the news, Yuan Shao asked in disbelief, "Do you say it again?" ”

"The fifth prince led two thousand troops, starting from Penglai and approaching Xudu!"

Tanma's unwavering answer shocked Yuan Shao.

He was speechless for a long time, but everyone in the tent had different expressions.

Yuan Xi, Yuan Shang and others looked like ashes, and they looked at Tanma and got the wrong news.

Guo Tu, Yuan Tan and others couldn't hide their joy, hoping that Tanma could say more information about Yuan Xu.

"Can you find out?" After a while, Yuan Shao, who came back to his senses, asked, "Is the leader really my son?" ”

"Back to Yuan Gong, it's true!" Tanma said: "Gongzi Xianxin sent five hundred pioneers to defeat the two thousand Qingzhou troops under Sun Guansuo, and Zang Ba's troops were also intercepted by Gongzi. The Cao army in the Qingzhou area lost more than a dozen generals, and Gongzi had led the troops into the border of Yuzhou. You will arrive in Xudu in a few days! ”

"My son Xianxin is not dead!" Yuan Shao stood up happily, instantly seemed much more energetic, and when he arrived in front of Guo Tu, he grabbed his wrist and shouted: "Xianxin is not dead, and he will defeat Cao Jun and make contributions to Hebei." ”

"Congratulations to Gong Yuan!" Guo Tu hurriedly congratulated.

Let go of Guo Tu, Yuan Shao grabbed everyone in the tent one by one, and each person would shout "My son Xianxin is not dead!" ”

Yuan Shao was overjoyed, but the faces of everyone in the tent were enough to paint a picture of life.

In addition to being overjoyed, Yuan Shao said: "The princes listen to the order and enter the capital of Xu, and Cao Cao's mind will be unstable. Our army should be able to fight a decisive battle! ”

"Yuan Gong is wise!"

The crowd shouted in unison.

Yuan Xu had already led his troops to the outside of Xudu at this time.

Ma Fei's night thorn was not by his side.

The only one who followed him was Tianhai Camp.

The main force of Cao's army went to Cangting, and it was the partial general Xiahou Cheng who stayed behind to guard Xudu.

Looking at the Tianhai camp outside the city. Xiahou Cheng pouted and smiled, and said to the captain beside him: "There are only a thousand defenders in the city. The enemy army attacked the city with 2,000 soldiers and horses, which is really wishful thinking! ”

The lieutenant said: "Yuan Shao has fought with Cao Gong many times, how can he ever get benefits? Yuan Jun should be in a hurry, so he arrived at Xu Capital again! ”

Xiahou pursed his mouth, his face full of disdain.

Night fell quietly, and the Tianhai battalion was stationed outside the city and did not start the siege.

Looking at the barracks outside the city where a bonfire was lit, Xiahou Cheng was puzzled: "The enemy army is not here to attack the city, is it to trap us and others?" ”

The lieutenant said on the side: "The enemy has few soldiers, and if it is attacked, there is no chance of victory. I'm afraid they still have reinforcements? ”

Xiahou Cheng's face instantly became a little ugly.

The city of Xudu is high and deep, and a thousand soldiers defend the city, and it is difficult to break through without seven or eight thousand enemy troops.

The enemy army outside the city was only about 2,000, and Xiahou Cheng was not afraid to force an attack.

What I am afraid of is that the enemy army is not the only one, in case there are reinforcements......

The Cao army on the city wall was like a great enemy, and they didn't dare to relax at night, and all their attention was focused on the Tianhai camp outside the city.

At this time, in the city of Xudu.

A wing of the building.

Ma Fei sat in the house with a few men.

Sitting around him were the leaders of the Night Thorns, each of whom had more than a dozen Night Thorns under them.

"Childe ordered me to enter the city a few days earlier, and the arrival of the army under the city is the time for us to show our skills." Ma Fei said: "What do you think is the best way to start? ”

"There were only a thousand defenders in the city. If we force our way through it, we can take the city gates! A man said: "Even if you don't enlarge the army into the city, it will not be difficult to capture Xu Du by night thorns!" ”

Ma Fei asked the others, "What do you think?" ”

"Raise soldiers for a thousand days and use them for a while." Another man said: "I have been practicing in Penglai for a long time, for today. The general decides how to do it, and I will wait to chase it! ”

Ma Fei said: "More than 100 people were stabbed in the night. Any one can be ten. However, we waited to enter the city only to seize the city gates, and the loss of forcibly seizing Xu Du must be not small. Night thorn practice for a long time. It's not just for me! ”

Everyone was silent, waiting for Ma Fei's decision.

"Quietly approaching and suddenly attacking." Ma Fei said: "Seize the city gate and welcome the army into the city." ”

"No!" And they all stood up and took the command.

More than half an hour later. The night is getting darker.

There are more than 100 black shadows on the streets of Xudu.

The dark shadow took advantage of the cover of the alley and quietly touched the city gate.

With more than a dozen night thorns. Ma Fei, who was moving quickly, suddenly waved his hand and led everyone into the nearest alley.

I hid in the alley when I heard a sound of footsteps on the road.

After a while, the night thorn in the alley saw a team of stubborn Cao Jun walking in front of him.

More than a dozen Cao soldiers straightened their chests and passed through the alley without squinting.

As they walked by, Ma Fei gestured, and the night thorns nodded.

Out of the alley, they did not continue to approach the city gate, but quietly followed the patrol Cao Jun.

Coming to an empty street and making sure that there were no other Cao Jun nearby, Ma Fei waved his hand.

More than a dozen night thorns followed him closely, and quickly rushed towards the Cao army patrol who was strutting high.

Poor Cao Jun, as soon as he heard the footsteps and realized that the situation was wrong, he was twisted off his neck from behind by the night thorn.

Dragging the corpse into the alley, Ma Fei whispered: "Change into clothes!" ”

Each of them found a Cao army of the same type, and the night thorn stripped them off their clothes and armor.

Changing into Cao Jun's clothes and armor, Ma Fei took more than a dozen people out of the alley and swaggered towards the city gate.

Along the way, they also met two teams of Cao Jun.

Greeting each other, Ma Fei and the others passed by Cao Jun.

They are also patrol soldiers, and of course Cao Jun will not check their identities.

Approaching the city gate, the horse flew behind him and glanced at the night stab, and continued along the wide road.

Cao Jun, who was guarding the city gate, did not notice anything unusual, and no one stepped forward to stop them when they were approaching.

The streets are the area of responsibility of the patrols, and it is not uncommon for them to pass near the city gates.

Getting closer and closer to the city gate, Ma Fei suddenly jumped towards Cao Jun, who was closest to him.

The dozen or so night thorns who followed him also stabbed at the gatekeeper like lightning.

More than a dozen Cao Jun didn't react to what happened at all, and they were knocked down by Ma Fei and others.

"Someone has taken the city!" Ma Fei and the others had already knocked down the second wave of Cao Jun and rushed to the city gate, and Cao Jun realized that something was wrong.

The shouts pierced the night, and two or three hundred Cao troops immediately poured down from the city.

Cao Jun, who ran down the city, pounced on Ma Fei and the others.

They were about to attack, when there was another shout of killing.

Nearly a hundred men in deep clothes pounced on them from behind with swords.

Receiving assassination and hand-to-hand combat training in Penglai, although the night assassin is not as famous as a swordsman, he is also good at martial arts.

Rushing behind Cao Jun, they raised their swords and fell, and even a piece of Cao Jun fell.

Ma Fei and the others, who had already killed behind the city gate, opened the city gate without lingering for a moment.
