It is said that Zhao Chen led the army to Tancheng and killed Zang Ba and others in front of the city for a while, and Zang Ba and others defended Tancheng and no longer went out of the city, allowing Zhang Fei to provoke outside.

Zhao Chen summoned all the soldiers to discuss in the main tent.

Under the tent sat Zhang Fei, Chen Dao, and Cheng Yu, and Lu Xun sat next to Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen asked Cheng Yu for a plan, and as soon as Cheng Yu made a move, Zhao Chen understood that the name of the poisoner was not true.

Lu Xun saw that there were loopholes in his plan, so he asked Zhao Chen: "I don't know what kind of plan Mr. has?" ”

Zhao Chen replied: "Bo Yan, today is the first lesson. ”

"For the handsome, for the resourceful, the time, the place, the people should be in the palm of the hand, and the integration is through. Knowing the geography, the terrain of mountains and rivers, depending on the situation, can reach a thousand troops, when you know the sky, clouds, rain, fog, and snow are all soldiers who can fight, and then know the hearts of the people, you can reduce the momentum of the enemy army, and remember the words. ”

Lu Xun repeated Zhao Chen's words several times and firmly remembered them.

"Although Tancheng is a small city, its walls are strong, and a forced siege will definitely result in heavy casualties. Zang Ba and the others are now huddled in the city, why? First, he relied on the strong city, and he was a little unscrupulous, and secondly, he was afraid, he had been killed by Yide and Shuzhi for a while, and he didn't dare to rush out again. Our army took advantage of the enemy's cowardice. ”

Zhao Chen's analysis was clear and concise, and all the soldiers nodded in approval.

Then Zhao Chen said: "When the city is broken, it will be in the early morning of tomorrow." ”

Zhang Fei hurriedly asked, "Strategist, can you let Zang Ba Xiao'er out of the city tomorrow?" ”

Zhao Chen smiled: "Definitely, Yide." It is now the middle of spring, and the spring is foggy, often occurring from February to April. I look at the celestial phenomena, in recent days the weak southeast wind, the weather is humid and sunny, and there is the east of the Taishan hilly area to block, if it does not rain tonight, tomorrow morning there will be heavy fog. This fog can help our army break through the city. ”

Lu Xun sighed silently, Mr. Houde can not only see through people's hearts and see through the battle situation, but also predict the future celestial phenomena, and he is really a god and a man.

Zhang Fei was interested: "Strategist, please use the troops quickly." ”

"Good! Listen to the order! 1,000 people were selected to raise their voices, and they were ambushed in the east of Tancheng close to Shushui, and when the fog rose in the early morning of tomorrow, they shouted in unison, pretending to attack the city. Zang Ba and the others were afraid of Yide, so they would not dare to attack, and would only mobilize the other three soldiers to the east gate to defend them to the death. When the signal in the city is raised, Yide will lead the army to attack the east gate. ”

"Yes!"

"Uncle Zhi, you led 3,000 troops and made scarecrows overnight. Divided into two groups of 500 people, each with a scarecrow, they quietly placed themselves under the south and north gates while it was dark, and when the fog rose, they shouted together, pretending to be a thousand people attacking the city, and then gradually approached the east gate. The remaining 2,000 men prepared ropes, quietly ambushed at the west gate, tied up grass rings, and when the defenders of the west gate were transferred to the east, they immediately ordered the siege of the city and took the west gate as quickly as possible. After that, he went around to the east gate, joined with Wing Delhi, and took Tancheng. ”

"Chen Zhi takes orders!"

Lu Xun listened to Zhao Chen's march for the first time, and he couldn't help but admire it in his heart, with such a plan, it was impossible for Sun Ce to be undefeated.

Cheng Yu had doubts about Zhao Chen's plan before, but now that he heard it, he had to sigh that although Guo Fengxiao had a hundred talents, he was like a horse and a unicorn, and a jackdaw with a phoenix ear in front of Zhao Chen. Liu Bei has a military advisor like Zhao Chen, Cao Cao Yan can be undefeated, and Liu Beiyan can be invincible.

It was night, the temperature dropped slightly, and Zhang Fei and Chen Zhi quietly left with their leaders.

Zhao Chen stretched out his hand and waved it gently, feeling the wetness in the air.

Lu Xun on the side was painting a gourd in the same way.

"I hope it doesn't hurt the innocent."

Lu Xun looked at Zhao Chen in the moonlight blankly, and seemed to be extremely tall.

At this time, in Tancheng, Zang Ba and others were sleeping soundly.

A few days of perseverance made them slightly contemptuous of Zhao Chen's army, and it seemed that as long as they didn't go out of the city, Zhao Chen would have no way to take them.

Sun Guan also ridiculed: "Even if Zhao Chen has a thousand plans, if I ignore him, he will not be able to set foot in this Tancheng." ”

It is said that Zhang Fei led 2,000 loud voices, touched the edge of the water, and waited quietly.

Shushui is less than four miles away from Tancheng, and a stick of incense can rush under the city gate.

The sky was bright and the fog suddenly rose, Zhang Fei understood that the time had come, and took two thousand soldiers to Tancheng about 150 steps away.

The fire on Tancheng could not penetrate the fog at all, and only the stars could be seen from a distance, and the appearance could not be seen clearly.

Zhang Fei gave an order, and the soldiers waved their flags and shouted, and the killing shouts shook the sky.

Zang Ba woke up from the bed and asked loudly, "What's going on outside?" ”

A soldier crawled in with a rolling belt, looked panicked, and knelt down and replied: "General, it's not good, there is a large army outside the east gate, and there are many people listening to the voice!" ”

"Who? Did Zhao Chen kill him? ”

"No, I don't know, the fog is too big to see clearly."

"Thief!"

As soon as the two finished speaking, another soldier hurriedly ran in and reported: "Oh no, General! There is also a large army from the north, and it has reached the city gate, and many people have come! ”

Zang Ba slammed his fist at the table and said angrily: "How can there be an army in the north, where are the people from!" ”

Everyone didn't know how to respond, and Sun Guan hurried again.

"General Xuangao, there are a lot of people from the south, and they have already arrived under the city wall, and it looks like they are going to attack the city!"

Zang Ba couldn't take care of it anymore, so he ran to the city wall wrapped in armor.

The city wall was full of fog, and Zang Ba and the others couldn't see who was coming at all, and when they squinted, they saw that the city was densely packed with people.

Especially in the east, the shouts of killing are the loudest, and from time to time bows and arrows are fired.

Zang Ba frowned and said, "Even if Zhao Chen comes, he will bring a total of thousands of people, where can there be so many people." ”

Yin Li accosted: "Maybe it's all here, it seems that Zhao Chen is going to take advantage of the fog to forcibly attack the city." ”

Zang Ba immediately ordered the soldiers defending the city to shoot arrows to prevent people outside the city from approaching the city walls.

Suddenly, people from the south and north of the city slowly moved towards the east.

Zang Ba sensed that something was wrong and immediately asked all the soldiers to support the East Gate.

There were only 5,000 people in the city, but a few days ago they lost some, and now there are only about 3,000 left.

As long as it is to defend the city, it should be more than enough for 3,000 people to defend the east gate and deal with the siege of 5,000 people.

At the east gate of Tancheng, bows and arrows rained down.

Zhang Fei led the soldiers to advance and retreat, constantly luring Zang Ba to increase his troops.

The two sides are killing and shouting lively, and the west gate of Tancheng is now empty.

There was a group of people, Nai Chen to the army, quietly sneaked under the city wall, hooked the rope lightly, hooked the daughter wall, and climbed the city wall under the cover of the fog with the help of the rope.

The few soldiers guarding the gate were no match for Chen to 2,000 men.

In a moment, the west gate of Tancheng was under Chen Zhi's control.

Chen Zhi left a hundred people to protect the west gate, and the rest of the people killed the east gate from behind.

For a time, the east gate of Tancheng was in chaos, and the soldiers were killed by the sudden Chen Zhi and fled in all directions.

Zhang Fei, who was outside the city, suddenly saw the fire flickering and chaotic on the city, and the bows and arrows shot became sporadic and realized that the time had come to attack the city.

He immediately led an army of 3,000 and attacked the city with all his might.

In just half an hour, Zhang Fei broke through the east gate and entered Tancheng.

By the time Zang Ba reacted, the team of 500 people personally led by Chen Zhi had already reached the city wall.

Zang Ba, Sun Guan, and Yin Li looked at Chen Zhi in horror, drew their swords and hurriedly responded.

They never thought that Zhao Chen's army would appear here.

The three people who were panicked were Chen Zhi's opponents, and they were defeated after a few rounds.

Zang Ba hurriedly led Sun Guan and Yin Li to break through the encirclement, drilled straight into the alley, ran all the way to the north gate, and abandoned the city.
