Chapter 252: The Crumbling City Gate
"General-The camp of the Han army is still brightly lit, and according to the scouts, all the people in the camp are drinking in the camp, except for some people standing guard! Shall we do it now? "The thunderstorm just now has receded, and the wind in the night is very refreshing, but Zhang Jiao gave them an order to the night Han army camp, as long as there is a fire in the camp here, then the army in the city will be killed, and then the Han army will be destroyed in one fell swoop. The remaining small Han army in the city of Jizhou has become a turtle in the urn, once Jizhou falls into the hands of the United Qingzhou, Yanzhou's forces can occupy half of the Han Dynasty, according to this layout Zhou Yu's success or failure has become a knot of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Jiao destroyed Zhou Yu, then the world can fight against the Han Dynasty, Zhou Yu destroyed Zhang Jiao, then the Yellow Turban Army will be leaderless and become a plate of loose sand, the final outcome is to accelerate the pacification of the Yellow Turban Rebellion. The war is about to break out, and it is still unknown who will kill the deer-
"Sure enough, as expected by General Tiangong, as soon as General Tiangong vomited blood during the day, the Han army outside the city thought that General Tiangong's life was not long, in fact, this was just General Tiangong's strategy, the last time the tunnel outside the city was just to cover up, in order to fear that the official army would carry out a second encirclement and suppression, but I didn't expect them to come so quickly, and they fought so violently, the previous time there were many more people and horses than this time, but the battle was not so powerful. After the battle of Guanjingshan, our side was defeated, and the black-faced general killed more than 300 of us alone during the day, and the brothers were full of stumps and broken arms, and life was better than death. According to my estimates, this time it is estimated that it is the elite troops of the Han Dynasty, if we can defeat them, we will start to develop - tell the brothers to prepare, there will be another group of men and horses on the west side of the camp to harass first, as long as the drums are beaten together, our side will directly attack the Han army camp. "Tonight's leader is Zhou Cang, his swarthy is a good shade at night, Zhang Jiao did not go into battle in person for safety this time, but promoted all his personal guards to lead the army to battle, Zhou Cang is now ambushing outside the Han army camp with 5,000 men and horses, and the other side of the feint is Xiaoshuai Liu Pi also with 5,000 men and horses, tonight it is Qu Shuai Zhang Bo who guards the city, now Zhang Jiao's men are really unavailable, and all the people who can get their hands are leading troops in various states and counties, although Zhang Bo made him very disappointed, But it can only be used by him.
Zhang Fei scolded too hard during the day, tonight he gave a death order, that is, to capture Zhang Fei alive, and personally light Zhang Fei's sky lantern to sacrifice to the heavens, when he thought of Zhang Fei's scolding, he was really angry, he Zhang Jiao's ups and downs for decades, that is, a few years ago, he left a daughter, and now he is just about ten years old, Zhang Fei's words carried Zhang Jiao's ancestors and ancestors to greet all over again. The most important thing for ancient people is to find out the roots and pay respect to their ancestors, and people will regard the repair of ancestral tombs as the top priority in the family, not to mention being insulted? Is he himself destined to belong to Zhang Jiao in his heart like a mirror, but there are always people in the world who like to toss, and there are many people who like to dominate the world, but whether they can succeed or not is not necessarily, but they must do it. Generally, the slogan is shouted loudly at the beginning, and after some achievements, it begins to be coquettish and extravagant, and finally can only embark on the road of defeat, the rise and fall of every dynasty is like this, and the eternal truth can be endured with prudence.
"General-General Tiangong is really not injured? Today, the brothers watched him vomit blood, wouldn't they? The soldier whispered.
"Shut up - his old man is a god-like figure, how can he be injured, this kind of bullshit is better to say less to Lao Tzu - tell everyone to prepare, there is a fire over there!" Some things can be said and some things can't be said, Zhou Cang immediately stopped and didn't let him talk nonsense, at this time, the other side of the Han army camp began to light up, and the drums began to sound faintly, Zhou Cang expected that Liu Bi started to do it. He looked left and right and looked around quietly, tonight they walked through the secret passages, all of them were infantry, and he was not afraid of the problems that would be exposed.
"Knock, knock, knock-" The abrupt war drums broke the silent night, and a group of Yellow Turban soldiers appeared outside the corner gate on the west side of Zhou Yu's camp, holding the fire oil sealed with clay pots in their hands, and began to throw it towards the corner gate, Liu Bi led the army to rush up, and did not notice that there were only human figures flashing at the corner gate, but no Han army appeared.
"Gong Jin - there is already a fire in the direction of the camp, it seems that the Yellow Turban thieves have begun to attack, but only my second and third brothers are left over there, can it be done? Don't we have to go over and help? "It was Liu Bei who spoke, they had already withdrawn from the camp in advance, and carried some baggage to the valley not far away, where there were heavy guards at the mouth of the valley, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and had set a trap in the original camp and was waiting for Zhang Jiao's army to come to deliver food. Zhou Yu arranged for Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to bring 2,000 men and horses to ambush near the camp, and after seeing the fire in the camp, Zhang Fei led the team into the camp and began to set fire, and when the fire burned, if there was no enemy army, Guan Yu could join the ranks of extermination, and if there was, he would copy their back road, and they must ensure that they have no return. Liu Bei was worried that many enemy soldiers would injure Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, because Zhou Yu still had a risky plan tonight, that is, to open the city gate by fraud, he, Liu Bei, Dian Wei, and Zhou An led 5,000 men and horses to the city outside Guangzong County, as long as the city gate that could be deceived was wide open, then Guangzong County tonight would be a bloody night.
"Xuande Gong - you underestimate your two righteous brothers too much, they are all brave people, sometimes the generals who fight wars, the soldiers are a nest of generals, the general is the backbone of an army, as long as they follow what I said about the assault, even if the other party comes to 20,000 horses in the dark night, they can't show it. Our goal is Guangzong County, as long as we can rush into the city and take Zhang Jiao, we will definitely let the Yellow Turban thieves rout on all fronts, and tonight is the time to make meritorious contributions-" Zhou Yu asked Dian Wei to take a thousand men and horses to pretend to be the Yellow Turban Army, and then let five hundred soldiers pretend to be the captured Han Army, and began to move towards the city gate, Dian Wei's natural divine power is the best to use to break the city gate, the city gate of Guangzong County is also an ordinary big wooden gate, as long as the gap is slightly opened, don't think about closing it.
"Who is on duty in the city? The Han army's camp had been breached by us, and General Liu asked us to escort a group of prisoners back to the city first, and they led the army to pursue the commander of the Han army. The Han soldiers in the city disguised as the Yellow Turban Army were carrying torches, and one of them shouted loudly.
"Oh-you guys stop first, I'll report to the marshal-" The soldiers on the city tower dropped a few torches from the city, but what they saw by the light of the fire was the outfit of the Yellow Turban Army, and they didn't dare to make decisions without permission, so they could only ask Uncle Zhang, now the defense of the four city gates is all in charge of Uncle Zhang, and tonight the south gate is heavy, used to meet the troops who go out to attack at night.
"Which general are you? What was the situation on the Han army camp? Zhang Bo also threw down his torch and looked at the Han army under the city tower, and felt that there was nothing abnormal, so he opened his mouth to ask about the battle situation in the direction of the Han army's camp.
"Marshal-the Han army happened to be celebrating and drinking in the camp tonight, and was killed by General Liu and the army was caught off guard, the commanders of the Han army have already fled with a part of the Han army, and General Liu, the prisoner captured alive in the camp, let us send it back first." When Liu Pi attacked the camp, he erected the banner of Liu, and the scouts sent out by Zhou Yu only knew that it was the Yellow Turban Army surnamed Liu who led the army to raid tonight, and nothing else-
"Okay - open the gates!" Uncle Zhang felt that there was no flaw, so he ordered the city gate to be opened.
"Squeak-" The Han soldiers under the city breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, they didn't expect the Yellow Turban thieves to be so easy to deceive? They also began to slowly approach the city gates, which were also half opened, ready to welcome them into the city.
"What did General Zhou take people for?" Uncle Zhang suddenly remembered that Zhou Cang also led his men and horses to raid the camp, so he asked in passing.
"What General Zhou? We didn't see it! As soon as the Han army who answered the stubble under the city spoke, Dian Wei knew that it was going to be bad, and he quickly ran towards the city gate-
"Close the gates - enemy attack!" As soon as Uncle Zhang heard this, he reacted instantly, Zhou Cang and Liu Bi attacked the camp at the same time in no particular order, how could it be that the soldiers below didn't know Zhou Cang? There must have been some deception in it, and he immediately ordered the gates to be closed—but would it be too late to close them now?
