I thought in my heart, it must be because I performed too well in Xinfeng City, so the lord didn't want me to steal the limelight from others, so I waited.

It's just that for this reason, Lu Bu really can't figure it out, he thinks that if he doesn't use his strongest combat power, but uses someone else, wouldn't it be a loss in vain? Even he was still thinking that if he participated in the war, he was afraid that the current Chang'an City might have been captured.

It's just that no matter what he thinks in his heart, Zhang Chao doesn't agree with him to participate in the war, no matter how big the grievance is, he can only endure it. And after a long time, this kind of psychology has become a driving force, he is waiting for the call of the lord, and he wants to prove his ability with a battle.

It was in the midst of this wait that the order was finally given. It's just that he was not allowed to attack Chang'an City, but let him intercept Guan Yu's reinforcements.

Even the messenger said: "The lord said that Guan Yu is a fierce general in the world, and only Feng Xian can win it." Hope to live up to expectations! ”

"Haha, hahaha." In front of the messenger, Lu Bu laughed, "Those who know me, the lord is also." Hum! What kind of fierce general in the world, as soon as I Lu Bu makes a move, I will definitely be defeated by him. ”

At this moment, Lu Bu is ambitious. For Guan Yu, others may be afraid, but he does not have the slightest fear, on the contrary, he has a strong fighting spirit.

As soon as the messenger left, Lu Bu laughed for a while, and then remembered that he should think of a strategy to deal with Guan Yu. Then he hurriedly said to the pro-soldiers: "Go, the general's division and the deputy corps commander are invited." ”

It's finally going to be a big battle, and Lu Bu naturally wants to perform well.

Also having the same mentality is General Wei Yan.

Wei Yan has not been in Liu Bei's group for a long time, but he has begun to show his head and feet and has begun to be reused.

It's just that Wei Yan is still dissatisfied with being a pioneer general, although others will take a fancy to such a position, but in his eyes, he is still a pawn, in the final analysis, he is just a bigger pawn.

Such an identity could not satisfy Wei Yan, so he was bent on making more military exploits and getting ahead.

This time it was a good opportunity to be ordered to support Chang'an City. If he can save Zhuge Liang and General Zhang Fei because of his appearance, his ability will be valued, and he will naturally be reused in the future.

With such an idea, after withdrawing from the city of Poqiang, Wei Yan, who was appointed as the vanguard general, came all the way from Liangzhou to Yongzhou, and even because of his meritorious service, he gradually distanced himself from the main force led by Guan Yu behind him.

At that time, when Guan Yu decided to retreat to support Chang'an City, he deliberately slowed down, and he was also looking forward to whether Pang De would be the first to kill, so that he could return to the horse and behead him.

However, although Pang De had this intention, he didn't do it because his troops were insufficient, which made Guan Yubai wait for a day.

A day later, seeing that it was impossible for Pang De to leave the city, Guan Yu took the main army of 150,000 and chased after Wei Yan, who had a vanguard army of 70,000.

It's just that it's been delayed for a day, and the vanguard army is very fast, how difficult is it to catch up? This led to the fact that Wei Yan's army had already reached Fufeng County in Yongzhou, but Guan Yu was still in Tianshui County.

The two armies are separated by a land of Wei County, which is a distance of several hundred miles.

Wei Yan led the army all the way to hurry up, and it only took three days to come to the martial arts city of Fufeng County.

Wugong City is only a hundred miles away from Chang'an City. After arriving here, he ordered the army to rest well tonight, and then strive to approach the vicinity of Chang'an City tomorrow and seek an opportunity to fight.

Three days in a row. The 70,000 soldiers were sleepy, and now that they could rest for the night, most of the sergeants fell asleep after dinner. Only 5,000 patrol soldiers were still struggling to hold on.

In Wugong City, Wei Yan also fell asleep early. Although he has been riding a war horse for the past few days, he is much better than a soldier who walks on his feet. But after all, being the Lord will have to work hard, and thinking that tomorrow may meet Zhang Chao's army, this enough rest is also a must.

At night, the entire martial arts city entered an extremely quiet side.

On the top of the city tower, some of Liu Bei's soldiers who were in charge of keeping vigil were also staggering, and they were also people who had been on the road for three days in a row, and they were also very trapped. Now that they saw that they had gone into the night, and even when they had passed the child, there was no danger at all, they naturally relieved their hearts and took a nap.

And at this moment, dozens of black-clothed figures did appear under the gate of Beicheng, and they appeared one by one like raccoon cats, and then a soldier named Liu Bei in khaki clothes lost his life in his sleep.

With just a cup of tea, all the 200 soldiers guarding the city gate were killed, and not a single one of them made any movement. And there are only a hundred people who do it.

Seeing that there were no enemies around, the man in black led by him tore off the black cloth on his face, and in the moonlight, his face was also revealed. If it is an old man in Zhang Chao's group, he may be able to recognize that this person is Huang Xu, the son of Huang Zhong, the commander of the Second Army, that is, the captain of the special elite soldiers trained by Zhang Chao.

"Captain, it's all settled." Another man in black came to Huang Xu's side and whispered.

"Okay, open the gates and send the code." After Huang Xu nodded, he covered his face with the black cloth again, and then quietly entered the darkness.

Outside the north gate of Wugong, in the woods, there is a group of figures flickering, this is Hou Cheng, the deputy commander of the Dragon and Tiger Legion who has been ambushed here for a long time. Beside him was Pang Tong, a military advisor in a robe.

The fact that they can appear here is where the military advisor Pang Tong is strategizing.

Knowing from the Tianyan Situation Organization, Guan Yu's army gave up the opportunity to break through Poqiang City, and instead came towards Chang'an City, Zhang Chao judged that the purpose of these people should be to rescue Chang'an City.

In this regard, Zhang Chao ordered Lu Bu to block this support army.

After Lu Bu received the order, he was naturally excited, so he urgently asked the military advisor to come to discuss.

According to Wei Yan's marching speed, Pang Tong drew a circle, which was Wugong City, Meiguo and Meiyang City. After that, the 300 soldiers of the special forces who Zhang Chao cooperated with were inserted into the three cities in advance.

For these three hundred people, Zhang Chao said when he gave Pang Tong that they could complete any order, as long as they had enough time to prepare, they couldn't kill Guan Yu, and it was feasible to kill Wei Yan.

Zhang Chao had such a high opinion of this team of 300 people, which surprised Pang Tong, so he asked Huang Xu, the captain, to discuss the matter.

Coincidentally, Huang Xu was arranged to take a hundred soldiers to the city of Yiwugong in advance, which led to the scene where the north gate was now opened.

According to the previous agreement, Pang Tong and the deputy army commander Hou Cheng led 100,000 soldiers to the vicinity of the three cities, and once they found that Wei Yan had entered any of the three cities, they quickly approached it, and at this time, the special soldiers in the city needed to start after the third watch and open the city gate.

chose to start after the third watch, firstly, to prepare enough time for Pang Tong and them to transfer troops, and secondly, to reduce the attention of the guards in the city. After all, it's almost dawn, and people's precautions at this time are the worst.

This is also Pang Tong's somewhat worried about Huang Xu's ability, although Zhang Chao said it beautifully, but after all, he has never seen it, who knows if it can be done?

"Strategist, you said that the lord trusts these people so much, they are really so powerful, but there are 70,000 enemies in the city, and they are only a hundred, this ratio..."

"Well, I have the same idea, but the lord believes in them so much, there must be some means. We don't have to be in too much of a hurry, as soon as the hour has passed and the gates are not opened, we will force the siege, although the losses will be greater, but this is the only way. Pang Tong also looked approving, obviously he didn't have much expectation for the hundred soldiers who entered the city in advance.

And just as Pang Tong's words fell, the north city gate in the distance suddenly heard a heavy creaking sound when the city gate was opened.

"The gates of the city are opened, and behold, they have made a secret word to us." The sharp-eyed Hou Cheng was paying attention to the movement at the north city gate all the time, and suddenly saw that there was movement there, so he hurriedly said to Pang Tong, the military advisor beside him.

At this moment, Pang Tong also saw that the torch from the north city gate was circling three times in mid-air, which was the code that had been said before, and they were immediately overjoyed, they really did it, "General Hou, it's up to you this time." ”

"Strategist, rest assured." Waiting for this meeting also came to the spirit. Before, he thought that if he wanted to capture Wugong City, he needed to forcibly attack the city to do it, but now it seems that he really doesn't need it. Immediately, he was also overjoyed, and then said to the cavalry behind him: "Come, kill with me." ”

Suddenly, the sound of thousands of horses galloping sounded one after another, and the cavalry of the vanguard legion, which had been prepared for a long time, took this place as the starting point and rushed towards the martial arts city at high speed.

At this moment, the sound of pulling the city gate came from the north gate of Wugong City, which also aroused the vigilance of some soldiers on the city tower.

"What's going on? Who opened the gates? ”

"Hey, it's not dawn yet? Why did you open the city gates, is this to go out of the city? ”

"Why haven't we been notified to leave the city?"

A soldier guarding the castle tower was all awakened by this movement, but when they suddenly woke up, they were still in a state of some confusion, and they were also confused by everything in front of them for a while.
