Chapter 272 The unparalleled warrior Zhao Zilong!
Runan County.

Pingyu City.

Zhao Yun was wearing silver armor and a silver helmet. He was looking at the Wei army camp not far outside Pingyu City.

The beard on his face was stiff and the childishness on his face had long since gone away after years of fighting.

"This Wei army hasn't come to attack yet? Doesn't he know that I have cut off the food road? How strange!"

Originally, in Zhao Yun's opinion, after the Wei army arrived two days ago, they would immediately launch an attack.

After all, Pingyu is a special place. He occupied Pingyu and cut off the Wei army's two land and water routes, which was equivalent to seizing the lifeblood of the Wei army. This lifeline was already captured, but he was still not in a hurry?
Next to him, Meng Jian, wearing a Confucian robe, came in a hurry.

"General Zhao, the reason why the Wei army did not attack me is because it had other preparations. However, Wei King Cao Pi led the main force of the Wei army towards the south. It seems that he wants to attack Shenyang or even Xinxi."

Instead of attacking Pingyu, the main force went to attack Shenyang or Xinxi?
He frowned slightly and asked again: "Is this news true?"

"In the camp opposite, there are also many eyes like mine. This news is true and not false at all."

Zhao Yun understood, and his expression suddenly became serious.

"I may know the reason why the false king Cao Pi did not come to attack me, but went to the south. At this time, the news is empty, and they want to take advantage of it and capture and kill His Highness!"

Capture His Highness?

Hearing this, Meng Jian took a breath of air.

"Your Highness"

If something happens to His Highness, not only the situation in Runan, but also the situation in the world will change.

Moreover, for them, the most important thing is not this.

Even if His Highness is still alive, if he retreats and gives up the new news, he will almost give up Ancheng and Pingyu, and even the whole of Runan.

And in Ancheng and Pingyu, there were tens of thousands of Han troops.

Meng Jian couldn't help but feel worried.

Zhao Yun looked resolute and said coldly: "Your Highness is not an ordinary person. This matter will definitely turn the danger into safety. We don't have to think too much!"

What Zhao Yun has to do now is to twist the entire army and civilians of Pingyu into one rope!

In fact, before the main force of the Wei army arrived, the morale of the troops in Pingyu City was in chaos.

The people were even more panicked.

In the past two days, there were many rebellions in Pingyu City, and they were all suppressed bloody by Zhao Yun.

Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures.

Blind kindness will have no effect.

"I hope so!"

Meng Jian let out a long sigh. He had put all his wealth on Liu Chan, and now there was no chance to regret it.

If Liu Chan is defeated, his Runan Meng family will become a thing of the past. Death and destruction of his family are not just talk, but will become a reality.

of course
Taking such a big risk, if Liu Chan wins, then the Runan Meng family will become completely prosperous.

Wealth is in danger.

Now Meng Jian could only comfort himself in this way.

"The main force of the Wei army is not in the camp outside the city, but some of the enemy's food and grass must be hoarded in the camp outside the city. If we attack the camp at night and burn its food and grass, how will the Wei army respond?"

Zhao Yun suddenly said this to Meng Jian.

Hearing this, Meng Jian was shocked. He looked at Zhao Yun and said, "There are only ten thousand soldiers in the city. If we attack the camp, how will we defend the city?"

Zhao Zilong has his own plan.

"If we just defend the city blindly, it will be difficult to defend Pingyu for a long time. Moreover, if we can win a big victory, the morale of the soldiers in the city will also be improved. As for the danger, there is naturally there, but if we can attract all the Wei troops, , my goal will be achieved."

Although Zhao Yun has great confidence in His Highness.

But if he didn't do something, he would still feel uneasy.

Moreover, it is now a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them.

The main force of the Wei army left. There were not many Wei troops in the camp, but there were very precious grain and grass for the Wei army in it.

And
When Meng Jian heard that he was going to attack the camp at night, he was shocked. How could the Wei army think that he would dare to steal the camp?
He has no more than [-] soldiers. If he doesn't think about defending the city, he still dares to leave the city for a sneak attack?
And Zhao Yun wanted to take advantage of Wei Jun's mentality and replace defense with offense!

I, Changshan Zhao Zilong, am the sharpest spear in the world, how can I defend the city blindly?
"Tonight, I will lead three thousand elite troops to attack the camp. I will leave Pingyu City to you, sir."

Zhao Yun looked at Meng Jian with burning eyes.

The latter thought for a moment and nodded.

If he worked hard, he might still have a chance to survive. If he didn't, without knowing whether His Highness was alive or dead, not only the soldiers in the city, but also himself would start to waver.

"Pingyu City, I will guard it as a general!"

Zhao Yun took a deep look at Meng Jian and nodded.

"I believe sir."

This time out of the city, the initiative was almost entirely handed over to Meng Jian.

If Meng Jian had different intentions and surrendered with Ping Yu, the situation of the Han army in Runan would take a turn for the worse.

But Zhao Yun believed in His Highness's vision and the military advisor's vision.

Employers are not suspicious and others are not.

If so.

After saying that, Zhao Yun waved his white robe and immediately led a few personal guards and walked towards the city, apparently to greet his elite soldiers and prepare to attack the camp tonight.

Meng Jian looked at Zhao Yun's back and sighed quietly.

He thought in his heart: Kong Ming, Kong Ming!This time, can we really win?

Outside Pingyu City late at night, the moonlight shines through the clouds on the ground, casting mottled shadows.

The Wei army camp was as quiet as a sleeping beast. A small number of Wei soldiers were distributed at different sentry points, chatting in low voices and maintaining vigilance at night.

But that's about it.

Night breeze.

Blow away the sultry heat of summer.

The harsh chirping of insects and frogs, as well as the annoying buzzing of mosquitoes, gave the silent night a bit of undesirable quietness.

Under this dark night, the Han army led by Zhao Yun was hidden behind the hills. Their cloaks and armors had been painted dark black, camouflaged so that they almost blended into the night.

Zhao Yun silently stared at the Wei army camp in front, his eyes firm.

There is a group of people above the camp, and there are twelve outposts in front of the camp.

If you want to approach Wei Jun's camp quietly, you must first deal with these outposts.

Suddenly, Zhao Yun raised his arm and waved forward, which was a pre-agreed signal.

Five hundred soldiers in night uniforms immediately poured out from behind Zhao Yun. They were divided into twelve teams and secretly moved towards the discovered Wei army outpost.

Along the way, no sound was made.

puff puff~
Professionals will know if there is one as soon as they take action.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the twelve Wei army posts in front of the camp were cleared.

It can be said that there is almost no noise.

The occasional muffled groan was covered up by the noise of the summer night.

"General, everything outside the camp has been cleaned up."

Zhao Yun nodded and waved his hand again. This time, he took the lead, reined in his horse and headed towards the camp.

The elite cavalry of the Han army immediately mounted their horses and began to dispatch!
The hoofbeats of their war horses were silent, and the horseshoes were tied with pieces of cloth, miraculously making no sound.Close.

They crossed the hills like black shadows, getting closer and closer to the Wei army camp.

closer.

It was only a hundred steps away from the Wei army camp.

In front of the Han army's elite cavalry was the trapped camp led by Zhao Yun himself. They were Zhao Yun's elite elites. They drove black horses, held sharp blades, said nothing, and their eyes were full of murderous intent.

When the Han army's elite cavalry rushed close to the garrison camp, the Wei army's sentries finally noticed something strange, but it was already too late.

"Come on!"

"Kill!"

"Kill him and leave no trace behind!"

The Han army's trapped camp let out deafening battle roars and rushed into the Wei army's garrison like a violent storm.

In the Wei army camp, the Wei soldiers were shocked by the sudden Han army offensive. Some of them had not even had time to put on their armor.

The soldiers trapped in the Han army's camp were like a gust of wind and rain, waving their weapons, directly kicked down the gate, and headed towards the Wei army's camp to kill.

"Enemy attack!"

"The Han army attacked at night."

"End formation! Form formation!"

The fierce sounds of battle, the metallic sounds of swords and guns, and the screams of the soldiers intertwined together, causing the entire camp to fall into chaos.

The elite cavalry of the Han army led by Zhao Yun galloped around the guard camp, blocking the Wei army's retreat.

They launched an offensive like wild beasts, mercilessly slaughtering the unprepared Wei army.

The guards of the Wei army were helpless in the face of this sudden attack, and the soldiers fled in panic.

The bonfire in the camp was burning, illuminating the chaotic battlefield at night.

Zhao Yun galloped his horse, waving the spear in his hand, and shuttled through the enemy formation like a bolt of lightning.

Around him, the soldiers trapped in the camp also showed unparalleled fighting power. They cooperated closely and quickly suppressed the resistance of the Wei army.

The victory of the Han army was imminent. The Wei soldiers who were guarding the camp fled in chaos. Some of them turned into cold corpses before they understood what happened.

"Set fire and burn food!"

Zhao Yun led the Han army into the Wei army's camp like a gust of wind and rain.

Under his command, the Han soldiers set fire everywhere, and the flames lit up the night sky, as terrifying as the fire of evil spirits.

Zhao Yun paid special attention to the grain and grass reserves of the Wei army.

This was the main purpose of his night attack today.

The Han soldiers skillfully threw the torches into the warehouse storing grain and grass. The Wei army's grain and grass were ignited. The fire spread instantly and the raging flames engulfed the warehouse.

"withdraw!"

Zhao Yun did not choose to stay, but retreated immediately after ensuring that the fire spread.

This strategy has been carefully planned. Once the fire gets out of control, the Wei army will be in chaos and unable to pursue.

The Han soldiers quickly evacuated in the smoky night, their horses galloping like the wind and gradually disappearing into the darkness.

The summer breeze is blowing, and the weather is dry. Once the fire is ignited, there is a feeling that it cannot be stopped.

fire.
getting bigger.

The Wei army who came to support felt heavy when they saw their camp burning into a sea of ​​flames, but they also knew that the first task now was to put out the fire, otherwise everything would be in vain.The soldiers picked up water bags and wet cloths and tried their best to put out the flames.

However, the fire was fierce and the burning grain, grass and baggage made it extremely difficult to put out the fire.

The garrison captain led the soldiers to resist the flames, their faces distorted by exhaustion and anxiety.

If the fire is not extinguished and the army is short of food, it will not be more than ten days later, but within these few days!
As a general guarding the camp, he could not escape death.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger. Zhao Yun, who escaped from the Wei army camp, looked at the fire that filled the sky, and the firelight also shone on his face.

The Wei army is in turmoil, and the Wei army from Linyang to Xincai will probably be affected.

At this moment, Zhao Yun had a bolder idea:
Conquer Linyang City!
Since the food and fodder of the Wei army are going to be burned, then let’s have fun burning it!

Although there is a lot of food and grass in the Wei army camp outside Pingyu City, most of it is probably piled up in Linyang City.

What would happen if Linyang was captured and all the food in the city was burned?

Even Zhao Yun prides himself on being brave, but when this idea came out of his mind, he still felt a little crazy.

That's right.

is crazy!
With three thousand soldiers in hand, they first attacked the Wei army camp at night and burned all the food and grass in the camp. Not only did they not retreat, but they went further towards Linyang City.

No one thought that he, Zhao Yun, would dare to attack the camp tonight.

No one would have thought that he was so bold that he really dared to attack the camp, and after attacking the camp, he would also attack Linyang!

And no one thought of it, that’s right!
Zhao Yun immediately said to the deputy general beside him: "Get ready and march towards Linyang City. Tonight, Linyang City will be set on fire!"

When the deputy general heard this, he was immediately shocked.

"General, is this a little too aggressive?"

Attacking the camp at night is a risky move. After the attack is successful, you are still not satisfied and want to attack Linyang?
Crazy!

too crazy!

It can even be described as not afraid of death.

Zhao Yun looked calm and said: "Even if we all think it is crazy to respond to the invitation, the Wei army must not have expected it. If we win this battle, the Wei army will be passive. As long as we can hold Pingyu for a few days, his army will If you retreat, Runan will be ours!"

He Changshan Zhao Zilong, picking out the heads of millions of soldiers is like picking out objects from a bag.

What scenes have been seen?

Are you afraid of going to Linyang?

This was an opportunity to make a mark, and he, Zhao Zilong, couldn't miss it!
"just in case"

There was still a look of hesitation on the lieutenant's face.

"If you are marching and fighting, worrying about this and that, and still fighting a lot of war, what kind of soldier can you be?"

Zhao Yun raised his blood-stained spear and said, "No need to say more, just follow me and charge! What? Are you afraid of death?"

Seeing Zhao Yun's words and eyes like this, the deputy general was also filled with enthusiasm.

At this moment, proving that you are not a coward is more important than living!

"If the general is afraid of death, he will not follow the general out to attack the camp!"

"Good guy!"

Zhao Yun glanced at him approvingly, and immediately shouted sternly: "Change your formation, display the Wei army's flag, and head towards Linyang City!"

When he attacked Wei Jun's camp, Zhao Yun still took a few flags, and he just used them now.

It was.

The Han army that protruded from the Wei army camp reorganized and headed towards Linyang City.

And just as Zhao Yun expected, the Wei army did not expect that the Han army would dare to attack the camp tonight, let alone that the Han army would dare to attack Linyang after attacking the camp.

After learning that the camp ahead was attacked, the Wei army in Linyang City came to support as quickly as possible.

in other words
In Linyang City at this moment, the Wei army guards were sparse, and could even be described as empty!
