It was late at night, and everything was silent, only the Wei army in the deep mountains and dense forests was quietly gathering.

The moonlight pierced through the treetops, dappled across the glade, and shone on the mountain of siege equipment, shimmering with a cold, metallic sheen.

These craftsman-crafted instruments are even more hideous in the moonlight, as if they too are eager to show their skills in the upcoming battle.

In the dense forest, thick trees stand tall in the sky, and their branches and foliage cover the sky, forming a dark and mysterious space.

The breeze blew and the leaves rustled, as if whispering for the coming war.

The occasional cry of a night owl in the forest adds to the eerie and mysterious nature of the night.

At night, they secretly transported the baggage of men and horses to the mountains.

How could the Wei army come to fight Yongxian?

That's why.

"No!"

Peng Xuan's eyes flickered, he was already gearing up, and he couldn't wait to send troops to recover Guanzhong.

Cao Zhen turned his head to look at Fei Yao, the Taishou of Hanyang, and said: "Three thousand soldiers may not be enough to take Yongxian, or after taking Yongxian, it may not be able to hold it, you send a large army to take the trail to support it!" ”

They saw that in the darkness outside the city, the figure of the Wei army loomed, as if it was a phantom in the night.

It's just that the Yu Elk Defense Line is surrounded by one city and three forts, and if it is not uprooted, the Wei army does not have to think about transporting grain over.

But now that the grain and grass have been delivered in advance, Cao Zhen also has the confidence to make a surprise attack.

It turned out that the Wei army died first, and they had already arrived in Yongxian County.

Their figures loomed in the moonlight, like ghosts in the dark forest.

Surprise, panic and confusion spread among the soldiers.

"Inform the General!"

There are Han army grain, grass, baggage, ordnance and horses in Yongxian County, if they can be captured, the Han army's defense line will not be broken.

The Yu Elk Defense Line, one city and three forts, was operated like an iron bucket by Ma Dai and Wang Ping, and Cao Zhen was directly hard and attacked strongly, delaying the Yu Elk Defense Line for a month, losing thousands of men and horses.

"The officers and men of the whole army obeyed the order, prepared in a quarter of an hour, the people were ranked, the horses were wrapped in hooves, and they rushed to Yongxian County and broke the city!"

Then, Cao Zhen gave several orders in a row, and then he barely put his mind at ease.

The Peng rebellion in Longxi, which was in an uproar outside, seemed to be not the same thing from Cao Zhen's point of view.

However, before they could calm down.

Now that the defense line is stronger, the assault is bound to be inflicted.

This was followed by the clash of ironclad armor and the muffled shouts of the warriors, which were distinctly clear in the silent night.

He changed a method, that is, first transport the grain and grass and military supplies to the mountains little by little, and then take the trail that only the locals know, bypass the Han army's Yulu defense line, and go straight to Yongxian!

That's right.

The Han soldiers on duty hurriedly picked up their weapons and rushed to the city wall, preparing to defend the city.

In the dense forest, the foliage of the trees obscures most of the sky, making the already dark night even darker.

The soldiers of the Wei army were dressed in iron armor and were quietly busy in the night.

"The Great General has arrived."

Right now

He could only rush forward!

The moonlight was hazy, and the Wei army quietly marched on the path deep in the mountains and dense forests.

Gradually.

"No!"

Cao Zhen looked at Wei Ping, the Marquis of Guannei, who was beside him, and said, "The prince will go to mobilize the Wei army in the village, and attack Yu Elk on the fifth watch day today." ”

"Siege equipment, a surprise attack, it must be enough, as for the grain and grass, enough for the army to eat for more than a month."

Then came the sound of the city gate opening with a toothache.

Ignoring the tea shops on both sides of the official road, the Wei army rushed towards Yongxian!

And at the moment.

Cao Zhen was still a little hesitant.

When they heard the sudden movement outside the city, they were all stunned for a while.

Soon, a quarter of an hour came.

"Defend the city!"

Yu Elk is defeated, and it is useless, Cao Zhen's target is Yongxian.

The Han army in the city did not expect the arrival of the Wei army at all.

Occasionally, the distant screams of night owls pierced the night sky, making the night even more quiet.

"Grain and grass are heavy, and military equipment is enough?"

The Wei soldiers were dressed in iron armor, their steps light but firm, their footsteps echoing in the silent night, but they were swallowed up by the dense forest, leaving no trace.

The south gate of Yongxian County is opened.

"Where did the Wei army come from?"

"The Great General is here."

There was a sound in the dense forest, and Cao Zhen, who was wearing armor, walked slowly, and behind him, a group of civil and military generals followed.

A steady stream of Wei troops rushed into it.

In order to achieve this strategic goal, Cao Zhen has asked the sentry to go out to investigate the situation during the day and make a posture of attacking Yu Elk.

"Wei Jun is here?"

"You're right, don't miss the opportunity and don't come again, there are also 3,000 soldiers in the mountains and forests, under the surprise attack, it may not be impossible to break the city!"

Although the night was dark, they did not lose the slightest bit of fatigue, because they knew that these siege equipment would be the key to their capture.

It was quiet outside Yongxian County, only a gentle breeze blew through, blowing the weeds on the edge of the city wall.

In just half an hour, the Han army on the city wall was cleared.

The torches on the city walls swayed in the night wind, illuminating the surprised and nervous faces of the Han soldiers.

Yu Elk hasn't been captured by the Wei army yet!

"No!"

After receiving Cao Zhen's order, everyone suddenly became excited.

Wei Ping immediately received the order.

With the Jingzhao Du clan, the Jingzhao Wei clan, and the martial arts Su clan are all down to the Han State, among the Longxi nobles, the Longxi Peng clan is completely down to the Wei State, and the front is to divide Xiangwu, defend the Wubao of their own clan, and look like they want to fight in the ring with Cao Zhen, which is nothing more than to let the Han State relax its vigilance.

On his right, he walked half a foot short, it was Peng Xuan, a disciple of the Peng clan in Longxi.

Hearing this, Peng Xuan immediately stepped forward and said: "If we delay any longer, if we wait for the Han army to find out, I am afraid that we will lose this fighter, and at the critical moment, the general cannot hesitate!" ”

If you don't bring grain and grass to carry a heavy load, there are actually many trails to enjoy the elk.

"General, I've been preparing for more than a month, and now it's time!"

Under the city, one after another Wei troops climbed up.

This time, he naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to continue to rush forward.

After more than a month of operation, it is finally a little larger.

Yu Elk is the first line of defense, most of the Han army is in Yu Elk, although there are thousands of Han troops in Yongxian, but who would have thought that the Wei army would appear in Yongxian?

Under the surprise attack, maybe it can really be done!

Like ghosts in the night, the Wei army suddenly appeared outside Yongxian County, and their arrival broke the silence of the night.

After riding the war horse and holding the spear in his hand, the last trace of hesitation in Cao Zhen's eyes disappeared.

That's for this battle!

Call~

Cao Zhen exhaled a deep breath of turbidity, his fists suddenly clenched, and his eyes became brighter.

Suddenly, there was a rapid and orderly sound of horses' hooves in the darkness in the distance, and the sound was from far and near, quickly approaching Yongxian County.

At this moment, they realized that a sudden battle was about to begin.

Immediately the dead man descended the city wall and captured the city gates.

The mountain road is far away, and the road is on the side.

The Han army in the city is sparse, where is the opponent of the Wei army.

Hanyang Taishou Fei Yao also received orders.

Guo Huai said on the side.

"Maybe we can wait a few more days." Cao Zhen looked at the amount of grain and grass and felt that it was not enough.

Even the Han army on duty in the city was very lax.

The Han soldiers who were still holding on unconsciously felt despair in their hearts:

Yongxian

Is it going to break?
