Yuan Li has funded Qin Feng for so long, and he has given people and money and food, but he has not seen the harvest yet, and Qin Feng has not attacked Cao Cao's forces once, which is also the reason for hesitation, he doesn't know if he can get a return for funding Qin Feng again.

After careful consideration, Yuan Li said: "War horses, the old man can think of a batch of horses for the general, first give a hundred horses, if the general can capture Pingyu and Shangcai, then give another four hundred!" ”

Pingyu was previously broken by Liu Bei and Yuan Li, it can be seen that Pingyu is not controlled by Yuan Li's family, after Liu Bei and others left, Gong Du also led the army to withdraw to Cliff Mountain, and Cai Yang took the opportunity to return to Pingyu to control the whole city.

Qin Feng guessed Yuan Li's intentions, he couldn't let the troops fight Cao Cao and test his true position!

Qin Feng didn't hesitate about this, and immediately asked, "Is this true?" ”

"Seriously!"

"Then it's a deal!"

After sending Yuan Li away, Qin Feng sent someone to find Yang Hong and Yan Xiang, and told him about the agreement he had reached with Yuan Li, and then asked, "Can Pingyu be attacked?" ”

Yang Hong thought for a while and said: "It's okay to fight a dozen peacemakers, test Cao Cao's tolerance for this matter, if Xuchang sends someone to reprimand and order the lord to withdraw from Pingyu, it means that Cao Cao can't be separated at the moment; If Xuchang doesn't send someone to reprimand, we must be careful, and send more ears and eyes to spy on it, so as to prevent Cao Cao from secretly sending troops to attack! ”

Qin Feng touched his chin, thinking that he should also give Cao Ah a a reason for such a moment, and he couldn't let him live too comfortably!

But this time he didn't plan to go in person, and he didn't plan to send too many people.

After repeated weighing, Qin Feng found Chen Dao.

"Uncle Zhi, are you a peaceful person?"

Chen Zhi replied, "Exactly, why does the lord ask this?" ”

"Do you still have relatives in your family?"

Chen Zhi suppressed the doubts in his heart, "My parents are all gone, only my brother and sister-in-law are still in peace!" ”

Qin Feng pondered for a while and said, "If I order you to lead an army to attack Pingyu and Shangcai, are you willing?" ”

Chen Zhi did not hesitate, "In this case, please give the general an order!" ”

Qin Feng said with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry, according to the spies, there are 1,000 elite soldiers borrowed by Cai Yang from Li Tong in Pingyu City, which is not easy to fight, we can't dispatch a large number of troops this time, I can only give you a thousand men and horses, no matter what method you use, you must take Pingyu within ten days, you can be confident to complete this task?" ”

Chen Zhi immediately assured: "The humble will not disappoint the general!" ”

"Good, you go back and prepare, I will order the transfer of the other four pieces of men and horses under your command!"

"No!"

The next day, at dawn, Chen Zhi set off from Xincai with a thousand men and horses, and did not alarm others, and even most of the soldiers in the army did not know that there were less than 1,000 soldiers.

During the march, Chen Zhi sent his henchmen and brothers to Pingyu to take his brother and sister-in-law out first, so as not to be found out by Cai Yang during the siege of the city, and then threaten the lives of his brother and sister-in-law.

After marching seventy miles in one day, in the evening, Chen Zhi led his army to set up camp on the east bank of the Ru River, thirty miles away from Pingyu, but ordered the soldiers to take off their armor, and the celebrities found a piece of rags and drew a skull on it.

At night, brothers, sisters-in-law and nephews were brought to the camp, and the brothers met again.

In the early morning, at dawn, the well-fed and well-drunk soldiers under the leadership of Chen Zhi fought towards Pingyu City with skull flags.

When he was in the city, Chen Zhi turned his head and looked back, and sent the team to march too neatly, didn't this reveal their identities? Immediately ordered the ranks to be loose, not allowed to march in a neat line, and the soldiers immediately laughed and coaxed.

When we arrived at the foot of Pingyu City, it was already bright daylight.

A few soldiers on duty on the tower of the southern gate of Pingyu were yawning, preparing to change their guards, and the smoke and dust rising from the sky in the distance attracted their attention.

"Look, that's ······" A soldier shouted pointing into the distance.

Several other soldiers looked up, and they all changed color, and someone shouted: "It's not good, there are soldiers and horses to attack, quickly close the city gate!" ”

The soldiers guarding the gate under the city were notified, and they were so frightened that they hurried to close the gate and prevent the people who wanted to enter the city from entering the city.

When Chen Zhi came to the south gate with the men and horses, the messy team and the lack of siege equipment made the defenders at the head of the city feel a lot more relieved. Dream on!

In the Taishou Mansion, Cai Yang was having breakfast.

A sergeant hurriedly ran over to report: "Qi Yu Taishou, there is a vote of people outside the south city gate, and they are calling for battle outside the city!" ”

Cai Yang was shocked, the bamboo chopsticks in his hands fell, and he immediately asked, "But the Flame Army Qin Feng led the army to kill?" ”

"It's not the Flame Army, and I don't know where it came from, under the banner of skulls!"

The sergeant's answer made Cai Yang feel a lot more relieved, and he immediately stopped eating breakfast, ordered his own soldiers to get him to wear clothes, and then took weapons and went out, stepped on a war horse, and rushed to the south gate with dozens of personal soldiers.

Ascending the city gate tower to look outside the city, Cai Yang suddenly became angry, only to see more than 1,000 people outside the city, these people are in tatters, all unkempt, many don't even have straw shoes, and the weapons they hold are also rusty guys, and there are many people with wooden sticks and straw forks, only one person who is the leader on horseback looks quite right, and all the others are some crooked melons and cracked dates.

"I'm angry, I think I'm Cai Yang is also a county guard, and it's just a matter of losing the battle under Qin Feng of the Flame Army, after all, that guy has a set of training and a trick and resource, but when will it be my turn to be bullied by a group of beggars who came out of nowhere? Does everyone in the world think that I am a wine bag and a rice bag? ”

Although Cai Yang was angry, he did not lose his mind, and immediately asked, "Who is in the city?" Dare to raise an army to invade my city, and you want to die? ”

Chen Zhi, who was riding on horseback under the city, said loudly: "I am the big bone village of Skull Mountain, Chen Zhi is also, but Cai is too guarded on the city tower?" ”

Cai Yang asked the generals and officials around him: "Have you ever heard of where the big bone village of Skull Mountain is?" Who is this? ”

All the sergeants shook their heads.

Cai Yang responded loudly: "It's Ben Taishou, what do you want?" ”

Chen Zhi said: "Today, the cottage is short of food, so I came to borrow 2,000 stones of grain, 1,000 taels of gold, and 30 beauties from Cai Taishou. ”

Cai Yang couldn't hold back any longer, and blurted out a scolding: "Let go of your mother's dog stinky fart!" You and other thieves in the mountains and wilderness, it is just enough to gather people to be bandits and occupy the mountains as kings, and now you dare to take these rotten beggars to borrow grain from the government, and it is enough to borrow grain, and you also want to borrow gold and beauties, it is really a big appetite, I Caiyang dare not have such a ridiculous idea! Nian Ru and other first offenders, Ben Taishou didn't care, let Er and others leave, and didn't retreat quickly! ”

Chen Zhi turned his head and shouted to the sergeants pretending to be bandits and beggars behind him, "Sons, the old thief in Caiyang doesn't borrow food, gold and beauties, what can we do?" ”
