Chapter 303: Surprise Attack Cao Xiu abandoned the city

It is true that the current defeat of the Wei army is the best time for the Han army to capture Fancheng.

But Fancheng is not an ordinary city, and his city defense is very perfect.

Even from the mouths of the Wei prisoners, Mi Yang learned that the Wei general guarding Fancheng this time was Zhao Yan.

Zhao Yan, as Cao Wei's veteran minister, had heard of his reputation even if Wei Yan, who was far away in Hanzhong before.

Fan Cheng is strong, and Zhao Yan is not an ordinary Wei general.

And most of the Han army had just experienced a fierce battle, and Mi Yang couldn't spare too many troops to attack Fancheng.

Under such circumstances, it was not easy for Mi Yang to successfully take Fancheng.

And in view of this situation, Mi Yang's think tank Deng Ai came up with a plan for him.

That is, when most of the rout of the Wei army did not enter Fancheng, Mi Yang personally selected a part of the elite soldiers, changed into the clothing and banners of the Wei army, and pretended to be a defeated Wei army to approach Fancheng.

As long as Zhao Yan will open the city to accept a group of Wei army routs, then Mi Yang can surprise and lead this Han army elite to attack from behind.

This method can take Fancheng while Zhao Yan is unprepared.

Deng Ai's strategy was based on the case of Zhang Wei leading the Han army to enter the city during Miyang's crusade against Shenyi.

Strategists are not afraid of getting old, as long as they can make it work according to the times.

After Wei Yan heard Deng Ai's suggestion, he came up with a more radical strategy.

He suggested that Mi Yang lead 3,000 Han troops to infiltrate Fancheng disguised as Wei troops, so that once Zhao Yan, the defender of Fancheng, relaxed his vigilance, the Han army could take advantage of the situation to break through Fancheng's city defenses from the inside.

Compared with Deng Ai's strategy, Wei Yan's strategy had a greater probability of success on the surface, but this strategy was too risky, and he pinned his hopes on the enemy's negligence.

It's broad daylight, and Zhao Yan is the one who has served as a protector.

Once the Wei army entered the city, in order to prevent the rout of the army from causing chaos in the city, he would definitely disrupt and reorganize many Wei army.

That's what he did when there was a mutiny in Guanzhong.

And once Zhao Yan does this, the Han army led by Mi Yang can pretend to be the Wei army in appearance, but the accent alone is afraid that it will be exposed in an instant.

Therefore, Wei Yan's strategy was too risky, while Deng Ai's strategy was more secure in comparison.

Even if Zhao Yan did not open the gates of Fancheng to accept the defeat of the Wei army as Deng Ai expected, Mi Yang could lead the Han army to retreat temporarily.

So after weighing the pros and cons, Mi Yang immediately took Deng Ai's method.

Since the Wei army was only concerned about fleeing for their lives, when Mi Yang led three thousand elite soldiers of the Han army to blend into their great escape array, where would they have the heart to probe for any abnormalities.

Because of the suddenness of the Wei army's rout, this smoothly allowed Miyang's 3,000 Han troops to come to the vicinity of Fancheng in a daze.

And after coming to the vicinity of Fancheng, because the Wei army outside Fancheng was not much for a while.

In addition, Zhao Yan in Fancheng had no intention of opening the city gate at that time, so Mi Yang led 3,000 Han troops to hide in the mountains and forests outside Fancheng.

In an hour just now, Mi Yang asked the 3,000 Han army to step up repairs on the one hand, and on the other hand, he always paid attention to the changes in Fancheng. ….

And when Mi Yang saw that the suspension bridge outside Fancheng was slowly lowered, he knew that Deng Ai's strategy was half successful.

After seeing this scene, Mi Yang did not hesitate to lead three thousand Han troops out of the mountains and forests one after another, rushing towards the back of the tens of thousands of Wei troops.

And when Mi Yang asked the 3,000 Han troops behind him to line up and march towards Fancheng, many of the tens of thousands of Wei troops in the rout began to notice the abnormality.

Because according to common sense, everyone is in a state of rout, and they are all in a state of panic, it should not be said whether the formation is scattered, it should be that there is no formation at all.

And the 3,000 Han troops led by Mi Yang, although they were no different from them in appearance, their rapid advance towards Fancheng was very different from the vast majority of Wei army routs.

It's just that although there are some Wei Juncha

They felt strange, but most of their minds were now on running for their lives, and they wouldn't think deeply about this question at all.

What's more, even if he thinks deeply, that part of Wei Jun's heart will naturally emerge with an explanation.

Among the tens of thousands of Wei troops, there were hundreds of generals and colonels, and it was not surprising that there were one or two of them who were as strict as Yu Ban.

I think that when Emperor Wu of Wei was defeated in Wancheng, all the armies were defeated, and the situation was not much better than today.

And at that time, in such a chaotic army, didn't there be generals such as Yu Ban to restrain his subordinates and lead the army led to slowly retreat?

At the beginning, Yu Ban was even able to build a trench in the tens of thousands of defeated troops, and today's "Wei General" is much worse than Yu Ban.

When Mi Yang led 3,000 Han troops from the mountains and forests, he quickly came to the back of the tens of thousands of Wei troops.

When the nearby Wei army was defeated and thought that the soldiers led by this "Wei general" were going to compete with them for the hope of survival, Mi Yang immediately ordered the 3,000 Han troops to attack the Wei army in front.

Because they thought that the 3,000 Han troops led by Mi Yang were their comrades, and the minds of tens of thousands of Wei troops were now thinking about how to quickly cross the drawbridge, they would not pay attention to their backs at all.

When the first unsuspecting Wei army was cut down by the "friendly army" behind him, more and more Wei troops were caught off guard and fell under the Han army's ring sword.

In an instant, in the rear of tens of thousands of Wei troops, thousands of terrible wails sounded.

These thousands of wails spread forward at an extremely fast speed, and when the Wei army in front of them heard this wail and looked back, the scene in their eyes instantly frightened them.

I saw that the Han army, with thousands of sharp blades in hand, was slashing and killing their own people like crazy, and they were coming towards them at a very fast speed.

Now, as long as a normal person can guess, the thousands of "friendly soldiers" who are slashing and killing their comrades are actually pretending to be Han soldiers.

As the distance continued to approach, the bloodthirsty look on the faces of the thousands of Han troops, the Wei army's routs could see more and more clearly.

After seeing this scene, the tens of thousands of Wei troops who had been slightly restored to order because of the hope of seeing life fell into a great panic in an instant.

What kind of situation can create a person's feelings of despair?

That is to take all the hope out of his heart when he thinks he can hold on to it. ….

Originally, the tens of thousands of Wei troops thought that they had fled to Fancheng, and they finally got a glimmer of life for themselves.

Even in order to fight for this glimmer of life, in the process just now, they abandoned the glory of the past, and they betrayed their former comrades.

But what they never expected was that after they had paid so much, in what they thought was the safest place, there would suddenly be thousands of enemy troops attacking them again.

The appearance of those thousands of Han troops means that they are once again facing a huge threat of death.

In the face of the Han army's pressing step by step, no Wei army would not feel hopeless.

And in despair, the crowd of tens of thousands of Wei troops who were defeated was like a mirror smashed by a boulder, and it exploded in an instant.

Countless Wei soldiers retracted their eyes in a panic, and then they desperately pushed their comrades in front of them.

Many of the Wei troops were already crossing the drawbridge, and they fell from the drawbridge into the icy moat, pushed by their comrades in the rear, and even by the comrades next to them.

And as many Wei troops began to push and shove their comrades in front of them, more and more Wei troops fell from the suspension bridge, and the dense crowd of Wei troops became more disorderly.

The most important thing is that all the Wei army routs are desperately squeezing forward at this moment, and some of the Wei army routs have begun to enter the city gate at this time.

This made Zhao Yan in Fancheng almost jump off the city wall in a hurry.

The condescending Zhao Yan, when the 3,000 Han army led by Mi Yang approached the rout of tens of thousands of Wei troops in a neat formation, his rich experience made him sense that something was wrong.

It's just that before Zhao Yan gave an order, Mi Yang

The 3,000 Han troops led by him had already launched an attack on the rout of tens of thousands of Wei troops.

Everything happened so fast, it was almost time for Zhao Yan to react.

And even if Zhao Yan succeeded in giving the order for the whole army to stop entering the city, under the strong desire to survive under the rout of tens of thousands of Wei troops, how many people would listen to his order?

Therefore, Zhao Yan could only watch the thousands of Han troops under Fancheng slash and kill his own army unscrupulously.

Seeing the thousands of Han troops under the city slashing and slashing their own army all the way from the rear, and constantly approaching the city gate, it was not difficult for Zhao Yan to guess the intentions of the thousands of Han troops.

But even if he guessed, he couldn't do anything now.

At present, the best way to prevent the Han army from entering the city is to pull up the suspension bridge in time to block the pace of the Han army crossing the moat.

However, although the suspension bridge of the present day already adopted some mechanical structure, in order to successfully pull the suspension bridge, it must rely on the assistance of manpower.

The suspension bridge in Fancheng is very wide, and it takes a lot of manpower to pull it up with such a huge suspension bridge.

What's more, the suspension bridge is now full of soldiers.

The most important thing is the two large iron chains that hold the drawbridge in place, which are connected to the city gate.

This led to the fact that if Zhao Yan wanted to successfully and quickly pull up the suspension bridge, he had to let the soldiers in the city cave pull the mechanism.

But now because of the surprise attack of the Han army, the Wei army at the city gate has become a mess, and under such circumstances, Zhao Yan will not be able to pull up the suspension bridge in a short time.

It was precisely because he was worried that a similar situation would happen that Zhao Yan was worried about putting down the suspension bridge. ….

At present, the situation that Zhao Yan is facing is that the Wei army, which is crossing the suspension bridge and the city gate, has become like a solid rock, blocking the suspension bridge and city cave in Fancheng steadily.

This is tantamount to exposing Fancheng's heart to the sharp blades of the Han army.

How could this situation not make Zhao Yan feel anxious?

Zhao Yan also tried to send a part of the Wei army down the city tower to drive away the Wei army that was crowded at the city gate.

But now the Wei army, which has been frightened by the Han army behind him, has broken the army, where will he take care of the drive of his comrades.

There was only one thought in their minds now, and that was to rush into the city and dodge the Han army that was constantly killing behind them.

With this in mind, the crowding of the city gates intensified.

At this time, the three thousand Han troops under the leadership of Mi Yang had already slashed all the way to the drawbridge.

Tens of thousands of Wei troops are now only thinking about escaping for their lives, and most of them do not have armored soldiers on their bodies, so their combat effectiveness is now similar to that of ordinary people.

Such a Wei army could not stop the Han army that was rushing in three thousand arrays.

And after leading the 3,000 Han troops to step on the suspension bridge and see the city cave not far away, Mi Yang's face appeared happy.

If you want to break the fortified city, you must first take the city gate!

After seeing that victory was ahead, Mi Yang stepped up and led the 3,000 Han army towards the city cave of Fancheng.

At this time, as the 3,000 Han army advanced all the way, many corpses of Wei troops had fallen around their formation.

And more Wei troops broke out after seeing the Han army killing all the way, they felt hopeless to enter the city, and they took the drawbridge in Fancheng as the center point, and quickly fled in all directions.

If the rout of the Wei army on the drawbridge is compared to the rocks that refuse to give up hope of life easily.

The 3,000 Han army led by Mi Yang was like a fierce Han water at this time.

The water continued to wash over the bloodstained rock until it smashed their bodies to pieces, and thus continued to rush from their stumps and severed arms towards their destination.

Under the continuous advance of 3,000 Han troops, the vanguard of the Han army has approached the gate of Fancheng.

In the case of Ding Feng's injury, only Wei Yan can currently take on the task of attacking Mi Yang.

In the battle just now, Wei Yan's whole body was covered in blood, but on his blood-stained face, his excitement became stronger and stronger.

As soon as he succeeds and his bones are dry, he will now use the white bones of the Wei army to pave the way for his Wei Yan's meritorious service.

Wei Yan, who was extremely brave, was like a hungry tiger that never tired, and he constantly waved the big sword in his hand to harvest the lives of the Wei army in front of him.

As the wails sounded, the Han army, under the leadership of Wei Yan, had already slaughtered into the cave of Fancheng.

There was an established Wei army in Fancheng, and the number of people was more than 3,000.

However, the more than 3,000 Wei troops were scattered at the city gates on all sides, and there were currently many Wei troops in the city caves, and there was no way to make those formed Wei troops line up to meet the enemy.

So in the cave of the city, it was soaked in a lot of blood in an instant.

Bursts of wails sounded from the city cave, and then kept reaching the ears of Zhao Yan, Cao Xiu and others who had already come down to the city tower.

Cao Xiu and other Wei generals had noble statuses, and they were naturally the first to enter the city.

It was because they entered the city earlier that they escaped this fate.

Listening to the wailing of the army under his command, not only Zhao Yan's face showed an unbearable look, but even Cao Xiu, who had always had a strong temperament, also showed a gray look on his face.

The current scene pulled him back to the scene he had just experienced in the battlefield.

It's tragic.

Cao Xiu, who had experienced many battles, now didn't even want to recall everything that had happened on the battlefield.

It's just that as the supreme commander of the Wei army who is currently present, he must shoulder some responsibilities, and some orders must be issued in time.

For example:

"Pass the order, and the whole army will withdraw from Fancheng."

When Cao Xiu's order was heard by the Wei generals beside him, the faces of all the Wei generals showed shock.

This is Fancheng!

Facing the shocked look of the generals, Cao Xiu looked at the figure that was constantly commanding the Han army to kill the enemy, and he said in a determined tone:

"The deer is already here, but the tiger is far away?"

Cao Xiu's judgment made the Wei generals become extremely sober as if they had been empowered by a basin of cold water.

Yes, a Mi Yang has forced them to such a point.

If the three tigers gather, with the thousands of soldiers who are demoralized in their hands now, how can they fight with the three tigers and a deer?

After realizing this, all the Wei generals had no objection to Cao Xiu's decision.
