Shu Chen

Chapter 226 Dare to Fight

The night fell and the wind was cold.

Above Zuli city, the soldiers on guard duty lit a brazier early.

Several teams led the bows and threw the rockets, igniting the fires outside the city wall.

The city outside the city was brightly lit with flames, making this small city surrounded by the Wei army lonely and stubborn to swear the fate and morality of the Han family.

It also cut off Xia Houru and Guo Huai's intention to send soldiers to clear some roadblocks in the dark.

He went against Shu, Wei and Yan for a long time, and we can't take chances!

Feeling emotional, the two of them also turned to patrol the camp, urging the soldiers to be on guard at night, and not to relax because of the exhaustion of the march and let Nishu take advantage of it.

Although the chances of Ni Shu going out of the city are not high, it is always good to be prepared.

The night is getting deeper.

In Zuli County after nightfall in late autumn, there is no dream of insects disturbing the dream, but the wind from the north is whimpering endlessly, even covering the sound of the river flowing.

On the west side of the city, a group of soldiers were indistinct, hanging down the city wall along the ropes.

There are not many people, about two hundred, and they are all part of Wei Yan's personal guard.

He has always been good at raising soldiers, and there are many followers in his trilogy.Now he intends to go out of the city to attack at night in person, there is no need to promise a big reward, and the response is like a cloud.

Guan Xing, who was standing on the other side, finally understood why Wei Yan didn't worry about the difficulty of climbing up the city wall when he returned.

Originally climbing from the bottom of the city, the soldiers mainly relied on their own arm strength, grabbing the rope tied to the crenel and stepping up the city wall step by step.Even if the ancestral wall is only two feet high, it is extremely time-consuming due to the uneven support of the body.

But Wei Yan made a trick.

Directly put several long ladders together, nail them horizontally to wooden boards, and put them on the top of the city to become a simple suspension bridge.

Soldiers with strong skills can climb up in just a snap of their fingers.

It is also audacious.

It is obvious that the defenders of the city have come up with such a tool for climbing the city, which is really speechless.

However, Guan Xing could only slander secretly a few times.

Wanting to work with Wei Yanchang for a long time, some words cannot be said.

And it's done.

Wei Yan has already brought his soldiers down to the city, and he also has to rush to the south of the city to sit in town, in case there is a commotion in the next robbery camp, and Ni Wei may take advantage of the chaos to attack the city.

As for whether the robbery will go well or not, he doesn't need to worry about it.

It's not that he's become numb to Wei Yan's insistence on going his own way, but from the number of people who robbed the camp, it can be deduced that Wei Yan is really not the kind of reckless man who wants to fight bravely.

His intention is similar to Cao Cao's conquest of Jiangdong in the past, and Gan Ning robbed the village with hundreds of people.

The prime minister had already clearly informed that no matter how long Niwei besieged the city, there would be no reinforcements from Longyou.

But this news, except for Wei Yan and Guan Xing, no one dared to let it know.

They were worried that if the Wei Dynasty had been trapped for a long time, the soldiers would feel depressed for a long time, and they would feel hopeless that there would be no reinforcements, and then an unfavorable phenomenon similar to the roar of the camp would suddenly break out.

After all, people eat whole grains, not as heartless as grass and trees.

Therefore, Wei Yan planned to attack at night first, not seeking to kill or burn supplies, food and fodder, etc., but to make the soldiers feel that it was nothing more than against Wei.

Even if there are several times of attacks, with their general Wei Yan around, they can be regarded as worthless!
Nothing to be afraid of!
The result of Gan Ning's robbing camp in the past was that dozens of people were beheaded and some antlers (fortresses) were burned.

However, it caused the various ministries of the Wei army to contend with each other.

When they came back from the robbing camp, the camps of various ministries of Soochow preached a masterpiece, everyone shouted long live, and the morale was greatly shaken. No soldier from Jiangdong felt that the Wei army was several times more fearsome.

It is a feat left in history.

It is also a helpless move when the battle situation is at a disadvantage.

After all, the consciousness of being shrouded in horse leather does not mean that you are willing to risk your life to burn several layers of antlers.

Another reason why Guan Xing is not worried is that the right time and place are on Wei Yan's side.

When the weather was right, it was natural that the Wei army came from afar, and the men and horses were exhausted, and the village was not stable.

And the absolute superiority of troops will also give them the inertial thinking that "the Han army will not come out to seek death".

The geographical advantage is that Zuli City now has only one gate and Linshui.

When the Zuli River, which flows from south to north, meanders to Zuli City, its tributary, the Guanchuan River, has flowed into it, and its water potential has risen sharply. However, the loud sound of water can cover the voices of Wei Yan and others; a larger river beach has been washed out There are also dense reeds growing, which can hide the traces of Wei Yan and others.

It happened that Xia Houru was in the south of the city, Guo Huai was in the east of the city, and there were very few Wei troops in the north of the city.

That's because the terrain is high in the south and low in the north, making it more difficult for the Wei army to attack the north of the city.

It's the second watch at night.

Leading two hundred pieces, Wei Yan surreptitiously hung down the city wall with a rope, and escaped into the reed marshes without raising fire.

Sneaking two miles outside the northern camp of the Wei army, I saw that the Wei army had arranged three layers of antlers, and the warning fire was in a line, and no one was extinguished;

Seeing this, the supervisor of the trilogy suggested that Wei Yan led the trilogy to return because there was no opportunity to take advantage of it.

But Wei Yan won't allow it.

On the grounds that it was still early in the night and Wei Jun was not tired, he hid himself and waited for it.

After waiting until midnight, although all the soldiers of the Han army were crying from the cold, no one made a commotion, but the Wei army was still strictly guarded.

Wei Yan is angry.

Thinking that if the army came back with nothing to gain, the morale of the soldiers in the city would not be boosted, so they continued to lead the army and waded along the river for nearly ten miles, detouring to the north camp of the Wei army.

On the way, a soldier accidentally stepped on a river rock, slipped into the deep water, and was swept away by the water.

But his pawn fell into the water without a trace, and remained silent all the time, because he was afraid that the sound of exclamation would lead Wei Jingjue!
It's four o'clock at night.

The sky was gloomy, and it was difficult to distinguish five fingers when reaching out.

The rear of the Wei army camp was laxly defended, with no watchtowers, sparse deer villages, and few fires for warning.

When the Han army saw it, they were all overjoyed, so they pulled out the deer village and entered.

If you meet an enemy, you will kill them; if you meet a horse, you will stab them in the buttocks to drive them away; if you meet an army tent, you will burn them.

For a time, the northern camp of the Wei army was full of excitement.

The Wei army was unprepared, and because of the long journey, sleepiness and deep sleep, it was suddenly attacked. Because it was difficult to distinguish reality from reality at night, and it was difficult to tell where the Han army came from, they were all terrified and chaotic.

The generals do not see their soldiers, and it is difficult for soldiers to find generals. They are in a mess.

Wei Yan took the lead and used both swords and spears, and the hogs made no progress.

Every time a person is beheaded, every time he breaks through an army tent, he calls out to himself, saying: "I am Wei Yan! The thief dares to fight!"

All the songs behind are full of vigor and glory, rushing and killing for fear of being the queen.

Seeing the continuous fire spread all over the ground, and hearing the sound of thunder and martial arts, the Wei army was terrified.

The Han army was invincible, from the back of the camp to the front of the camp, and broke through for nearly three miles, it took more than a quarter of an hour, and no one dared to fight!
Get it, go home.

After entering the city, the drums and horns of the whole city were loud, and the crowd shouted long live.

At that time, Guo Huai in the west of the city was able to lead the army to the north of the city, and Xiahou Rufang in the south of the city got the news.
