Previously, Lu Bu had been ordered to Tianshui to help Xu Rong fight against Zhang Lu, but because the Ma and Han armies were pressing, Dong Zhuo was defeated in successive battles, so Lu Bu was transferred away.

When he came to Tianshui, he didn't fight, and he ate a lot of Xu Rong's grain and grass, and what made Xu Rong most angry was that the poor meat and wine among the stupid generals were all taken to reward Lu Bu's soldiers and horses.

As a result, there was nothing in return, so Xu Rong was scolded by the soldiers behind his back.

Although Lu Bu came here without fighting, he had figured out the terrain of Tianshui, and Xu Rong also had a general understanding of the deployment of troops in Tianshui.

Under the leadership of Gao Shun, the trapped camp marched at a rapid pace all the way, and it only took two days to rush to a forest outside Tianshui City and hide invisible.

Gao Shun scattered a large number of sophisticated scouts to investigate, but also to prevent the scouts arranged by Xu Rong outside Tianshui from discovering them.

In the near future, Xu Rong has continued to reorganize his troops and horses, and carried out pre-war drills and preparations.

He transferred 10,000 soldiers and horses out of the city and set up a large camp outside to facilitate training, while Tianshui City left only 5,000 soldiers to garrison.

Gao Shun's trapped camp has 1,500 elites, and it is completely possible to win by surprise attacking Tianshui, but the key to the problem is the 10,000 army outside the city.

A surprise attack into the city will certainly lead to a fierce battle, so that the large army outside the city will find out and return to help, and when the time comes, the trapped camp of only 1,500 men will be plunged into a bitter battle.

"The raid must be fast! As soon as we enter the city, we will immediately besiege the Taishou Mansion, as long as Xu Rong is surrounded and captured alive, then this battle will be over! ”

Gao Shun sat with more than a dozen generals in the trapped camp to discuss the matter.

"This is the first battle since the establishment of our camp, we can only win, not lose!"

Gao Shun went on to say that this was the first time he had led a soldier to fight independently, and the pressure on his body could be imagined, even if the trapped camp was elite and had strong combat effectiveness, Gao Shun was still very scared in his heart, afraid that something would happen.

"Didn't the lord lead the wolf rider to come over? As long as the lord's wolf rider drags the 10,000 soldiers and horses outside the city, we can break through the Taishou Mansion and capture Xu Rong in the shortest possible time! ”

Said one of the centurions trapped in the camp.

"Well, the lord's wolf ride set off behind us, and now I don't know where it is?" When Gao Shun heard this, his spirit was shocked.

The cavalry was like the wind and extremely fast.

Lu Bu led two thousand wolves to ride, and he didn't dare to get too close to Tianshui, after all, the movement of two thousand war horses was too big, if it was too close to Tianshui, it would be easy to be discovered by Xu Rong's scouts.

He led the wolf cavalry to camp down on a hillside, estimating that it would only take two hours to lead the cavalry from this place to Tianshui, and a large number of scouts were sent out to patrol and prevent being discovered by Xu Rong's scouts.

"Send someone to send a letter to Gao Shun, just say that I have arrived, tonight, do it!"

Lü Bu ordered a scout to send instructions to Gao Shun.

The trapped camp is resting at this time, reserving physical strength for the night raid on Tianshui.

Gao Shun was sitting under a big tree, deducing and studying the tactics of siege, and when he received a report from the scouts sent by Lu Bu, his spirits suddenly lifted up.

"Tell the lord that there are Xu Rong's 10,000 troops stationed outside Tianshui City, which is extremely unfavorable for our army's raid on Tianshui, please lead the wolf cavalry to attack this camp tonight, and can't give them a chance to return to the army to help!

The siege time has been set, and our army will raid Tianshui at the time of the day! ”

Gao Shun learned that Lu Bu had arrived, and the big stone in his heart fell, and he looked at Tianshui City blocked by trees with some excited eyes.

"Attack the city at the right time, so I'm going to leave two hours early, let the brothers rest their spirits, there will be a hard battle tonight!"

Lu Bu received the scout's return and nodded.

Dian Wei and Cao Xing were both gearing up and in high spirits.

At this time, Xu Rong didn't know that Lu Bu was about to come to the city, or rather, he didn't think about it at all, he thought that Lu Bu was busy dealing with Ma Han now, and it was too late, so how could he come to raid him, besides, didn't Lu Bu still have to discuss with Dong Yue in Liang County? Will he have the kung fu to take care of himself?

Xu Rong knew that the Bingzhou army led by Lu Bu had strong combat effectiveness, and if he wanted to succeed in the surprise attack from behind, he had to let his Xiliang soldiers adjust their state to the best.

The Xiliang soldiers who followed Xu Rong to Tianshui, except for the early days after fighting with Yanpu, basically stayed in the camp, did not practice, drank all day long and made trouble, and the military discipline became casual.

It is true that the combat effectiveness of the Xiliang soldiers is strong, but if they do not practice often, their bones are lazy, and if they really want to go to the battlefield suddenly, it will be difficult to give full play to their combat effectiveness.

Xu Rong understands this, so he has been training the Xiliang soldiers recently, adjusting their mental state to the best, so that when they raid Xining and encounter Lu Bu to fight, they have more chances of winning.

During the day, the troops stationed outside the city were tired from training, and at night, the intensity of patrols was greatly reduced, and they did not expect anyone to raid them at all, except for some necessary defense of Yangping Pass.

In the dead of night, under Tianshui City, dark shadows are gathered.

Fifteen hundred soldiers trapped in the camp were all bent on their waists and approaching Tianshui City, each of them advancing extremely fast, and there was almost no sound under their feet, which showed Gao Shun's skill in training troops.

God takes great care of it, the moon is thin tonight, and it is dark everywhere, and it is difficult to see.

The black armor blended in with the night, and even if the soldiers staying in the city looked closely, it was difficult to see that the enemy was approaching.

In ancient times, people mostly suffered from night blindness, and when it came to the night, their eyes were no different from those of the blind, which was due to the lack of nutritional supplements.

The life of a soldier is also hard, and it takes a long time to eat a meal of meat, and some people follow the wrong general, and they may not be able to eat meat until they die, and even if they win the battle, they are only rewarded with some wine and drink.

After Chang'an, which was in charge of logistics, was cut off, Xu Rong's army had no supplies of materials, and his soldiers had no meat to eat, and they drank some thin porridge all day long.

Nine out of ten soldiers defending the city were severely night blind and had poor physical strength.

The trapping camp is different, they train a lot of physical strength all day long, but the food is the best in the Bingzhou army, and they eat meat almost every day, which to a certain extent, makes their bodies stronger than the average sergeant.

Thousands of soldiers scattered and came to the city on their knees, and when they saw that the guards on the city were either yawning or sleeping with spears in their hands, they were all in a great state of spirit.

"Do it!" Gao Shun said in a low voice and made a hands-on gesture.

"Brush, brush!"

Dozens of hemp ropes were thrown up the city, lassing the convex place on the city tower, and some soldiers who were as light as swallows quickly dragged the ropes and climbed up.

"Bow and arrow ready!"

Gao Shun gave orders.

The archers concentrated their efforts on aiming their arrows at the bewildered defenders on the towers, and as soon as they spotted them, they immediately fired their arrows to cover the soldiers who had ascended the city.

Gao Shun and the soldiers under the city all held their breath, looked nervously at the soldiers climbing up, and secretly sweated.

These soldiers had received similar training on weekdays, so there was no pressure, and within a while, someone had already climbed up.

It stands to reason that defense at night should be more important than during the day, but Xu Rong did not notice this and did not give orders in this regard, so some officers began to neglect their duties, resulting in a scarcity of defenders.

When several of the trapped soldiers climbed the wall, the night blind guards standing in front of them were unaware.

The knife fell in his hand, clean and neat, and without giving these guards a chance to speak, he sent their souls back to the western sky.

"Up!" Gao Shun saw that the first batch of soldiers who went up were successfully killed, and immediately let the soldiers below climb up quickly, if anyone saw the scene at this time, they would definitely be shocked.

On the entire city wall, countless gecko-like figures are rapidly climbing towards the tower.

In a short time, hundreds of soldiers had gathered on the tower, and the soldiers guarding the city had been cleared, and they had picked up torches, ready to kill them below, and open the city gates.

But at that moment, a patrol came, and they also took torches.

"What are you doing?"

The patrol soldier who took the lead raised his torch and shone it at the soldiers who had fallen into the camp, and his eyes were not good, and he could only see clearly in the light of the fire.

At first glance, I was amazed, how could the armor of these people have never been seen!

With just one glance, the patrolman who took the lead was slashed to death by a lieutenant, without giving him a chance to speak again.

The patrolmen who followed behind were also holding torches, and they saw it so clearly that they were almost frightened, and immediately screamed.

"Murder! Kill! ”

With two sounds, the soldiers trapped in the camp swarmed up, and dozens of big knives "brushed" up, cutting this group of patrolmen into pulp.

These two screams, under the quiet night sky, were particularly harsh, and the sound echoed in the upper and lower parts of Tianshui City.

"It's not good, someone found out, what are these guys in the city doing!"

Gao Shun heard it very clearly in the city, and he was so angry that he scolded his mother.

"Quick, kill the city, open the city gate, and let the generals kill them in!" One of the generals said immediately.

The call had already been heard, and several pairs of patrolmen with torches rushed towards this direction.

"The enemy is attacking the city! Enemy forces attack the city! ”

A group of patrolmen rushed to the stairs, ready to run up to see what was going on, only to find a large number of black-clad soldiers pounce on them, all with murderous expressions on their faces.

"Puff puff!"

The soldiers trapped in the camp were unusually calm and reacted very quickly, and before these people could react, they took down their knives and dealt with this group of patrols.

The soldiers guarding the city gate also heard the shouting and reacted, and the leader of the soldiers immediately rushed to the big drum next to him.

"Knock knock!"

The dull sound of drums pierced the quiet night sky, waking up countless sleeping soldiers, and the sound of the drums was much more useful than the voices of the dead soldiers, and the soldiers were all awakened, and they hurriedly dressed, grabbed their weapons, and rushed out.
