Choose Liu Bei at the start, I am the only one who knows the plot of the Three Kingdoms.

Chapter 347: Sun Jun suddenly becomes stronger
If Sun Jian had eyes in the sky, he would never launch an attack in this way, because except for those soldiers lying on the battlements pretending to sleep, the other soldiers were already prepared for battle. They hid behind the battlements, quietly waiting for Sun's attack. Once they entered the city, these archers would appear and shoot them into hedgehogs.

Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun stood on horseback on the main road, quietly waiting for Sun's army to break into the city.

"Brother Zilong, thanks to your scouts, otherwise we would have fallen into Sun's trap."

Zhang Fei's originally dark face was now perfectly hidden in the night. With all the surrounding lights turned off, it was difficult to distinguish his face. If it weren't for the dark cloud stepping on snow under Zhang Fei's crotch, they would probably have found it difficult to discover Zhang Fei even if he charged to the front of Sun's army.

"These scouts were selected not only because they are brave and good at fighting, but more importantly, each of them has some special abilities. For example, Ma San, he can lie on the ground and roughly judge the distance and number of the enemy based on the degree of the ground shaking. And Zhao Laoliu, he can find clean water sources in the wild and can even tell whether the water is drinkable. It was he who discovered that Sun the thief had put a knockout drug in the canal this time."

Zhao Yun whispered at the side. It was late at night and there was silence all around. Apart from the conversation between Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun, the only sound was the sniffling of the war horses.

A scout captain nearby scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

"Hehe, these are just some acrobatic skills. When I'm out spying, I need these tricks."

"Hahaha, good boy, don't be arrogant or impatient. When this war is over, I will definitely tell big brother in person to give you a promotion. As for the others, as long as we win, they will all get a share!"

Zhang Fei patted Zhao Laoliu beside him. Fortunately, he restrained his strength and did not use too much force, otherwise Zhao Laoliu's entire skeleton would have been shattered by Zhang Fei before he even went to the battlefield.

"Today's Chengde is the place where the thief Sun was destroyed."

Zhang Fei tapped his teeth lightly, it was a dark and windy night, it was time to kill and burn!

Zhou Yu stood in front of the three armies, looking at the unusually quiet city wall not far away. For some reason, he always felt a little worried.

"The ugly hour has arrived."

Lu Meng reminded Zhou Yu softly, and Zhou Yu came back to his senses from his thoughts.

"charge!"

As Zhou Yu gave the order to charge, Lu Meng rushed out first, his two-handed halberd and tiger forehead flashing coldly in the dark night.

Thousands of cavalrymen, led by Lu Meng, galloped towards the city gate not far away. Zhou Yu, who was watching the cavalrymen running forward, couldn't help but feel worried. It was not until they rushed to the bottom of the city gate tower and the soldiers guarding the city did not react at all that Zhou Yu felt relieved.

As Lu Meng swung out three halberds, the city gate, which was not very strong to begin with, fell to the ground with a loud bang, and then thousands of cavalrymen filed in.

Seeing that the cavalry had already attacked Chengde City, Zhou Yu felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what it was. He just frowned and carefully recalled all the details, wondering if he had missed anything.

After entering the city, Lu Meng and the cavalry slowed down. Lu Meng looked at the entire city which seemed to be shrouded in darkness, and his heart was filled with pride. After all, this was his own strategy, which enabled them to capture Chengde without losing a single soldier. At this moment, Lu Meng seemed to have seen the scene of himself being promoted and given an honor after the war.

As Lu Meng and the cavalry turned into the main road, the adjutant beside them suddenly came forward.

"General, look over there, aren't there two horses? They are obviously BMWs. How about I bring them to you?"

"horse?"

Lu Meng then looked forward and saw that at the end of the main road, there were indeed two horses, one as beautiful as jade and the other as black snow.

"Hahaha, you're really smart, kid. When you get back, you can pick any top prostitute in the entire Nanjun brothel. Even if you make her weak, I'll pay you. I won't refuse."

"Thank you, General."

The deputy general was very excited.

"Then I will go and bring him here for you, General, to prevent others from finding him."

Seeing Lu Meng nod slightly, the deputy general led the three men and immediately rode forward. Lu Meng was still walking forward slowly. This was why he had to be the first to rush into the city. It was not only for military merit, but also for the treasures in the city. He could pick them first and then present all the collected treasures to Sun Jian. He was worried about not being promoted. Now he was the prefect of Nanjun and now he had made such a great contribution. If he went one step further, he would only be the grand commander-in-chief.

Lu Meng thought of Zhou Yu with a head full of white hair again, and couldn't help but sneer. Why could a defeated general who had been defeated repeatedly still step on his head?
Zhou Yu, who was outside the city, watched tens of thousands of infantrymen enter the city. He finally figured out what was wrong. The city gate fell down with such a loud noise, how could the other party not react at all? Even if they were drugged, they should have woken up after hearing this kind of noise, so how could there be no movement at all?

This also means that the other party is most likely in disguise, and they have no chance at all. Thinking of this, Zhou Yu couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

"Quick, quick, blow the retreat horn!"

Zhou Yu said to the people beside him. The soldier who was responsible for delivering the message was confused. Why was the retreat horn blown when they just entered the city?
"No, it's too late."

Zhou Yu immediately stood up and gave new orders to the messenger beside him.

"Everyone, rush into the city immediately, don't take it lightly!"

After saying that, Zhou Yu turned and walked towards the rear camp. He had to report this matter to Sun Jian.

Inside the city, tens of thousands of troops had already entered the city. Suddenly, the whole city lit up, countless lights were lit, and on the city walls, a full 20,000 archers poked their heads out from the walls, bent their bows and drew their arrows, shooting towards the outside or inside of the city gates.

The deputy general who volunteered to lead Lu Meng's horse finally saw the two horses clearly after the lights in the whole city were turned on. There were not only two horses, but there was a black-faced big man and a white-faced young man on each horse, and behind them, there were several thousand cavalrymen.

Zhang Fei grinned and raised his Zhangba Snake Spear high up.

"kill!"

Zhao Yun, standing beside him, also raised his Dragon Gallbladder Silver Spear and shouted, "Kill!"

Five hundred scouts, sixteen hundred Yanyun Eighteen Riders, and five thousand elite cavalry began to charge towards Lu Meng. Lu Meng had just met with the eight thousand cavalry behind him. These were the ten thousand cavalry he brought from Nanjun. They were his family assets, and he had spent countless gold and silver treasures to raise these ten thousand cavalry.

When he saw Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun starting to charge in the distance, Lu Meng knew that he was finished. Even if he didn't die here and could get out alive, Sun Jian would definitely not let him go, so his only chance was to fight his way out and make up for his mistake.

The stunned deputy general was still standing there, neither running away nor charging, and was beheaded by a spear from Zhang Fei who was rushing past. The other three were also all beheaded by Zhao Yun's Autumn Wind Sweeping Fallen Leaves.

The soldiers who rushed into the city saw that the enemy was really asleep, so they slacked off and the shield soldiers no longer held their shields. This resulted in countless soldiers being killed under the rain of arrows during the first wave of shooting. Facing the arrows from all directions, the shield soldiers could only gather together and try their best to block them.

There were also infantrymen who were fearless and rushed up to the city wall, but they were chopped down by the soldiers who had been ambushed on the city wall. For a while, Sun's army suffered heavy losses.

Seeing that war had broken out at the city gate not far away, Zhou Yu did not go to report to Sun Jian, but chose to continue charging.

"Prepare the catapults, aim at the top of the city wall, and don't miss the target. If you miss the target, you will suffer the consequences!"

Ten siege vehicles had been waiting outside the city. At Zhou Yu's command, ten stones wrapped in pine oil, burning with flames, flew towards the city wall. The attacking archers on the wall had nowhere to hide and were pierced by the flying debris.

The attack of the catapults greatly alleviated the attack of the archers on the city wall, giving the infantry in the city room to breathe. They rushed out of the protection of the shield soldiers and rushed towards the city wall.

The soldiers outside the city had already set up ladders, and with the help of both inside and outside forces, they were going to take down the city wall first, and then erode Chengde.

Seeing that they could no longer use bows and arrows, the archers on the city wall had to draw the big swords behind them, clear the battlefield for other comrades who were able to use bows and arrows, and kill those soldiers who attacked the city wall.

Under Zhou Yu's indomitable and terrifying all-attribute enhancement, each of Sun's soldiers was as ferocious as a tiger, and their combat effectiveness was comparable to that of Gu Rubing's troops. A truly bloody battle began at the city wall.

On the main road of Chengde Military Town, the cavalry led by Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun had already fought a fierce battle with Lu Meng's cavalry. Five hundred scouts entered various parts of the city under their cover. They were not suitable to participate in a head-on war, but were more suitable to resolve some potential threats in secret.

In the first collision, Lu Meng's 10,000 cavalrymen were reduced to more than 3,000 cavalrymen, and Zhang Fei's men also suffered a lot of losses, a total of 1,500 cavalrymen. This was because the combat effectiveness of the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun was higher, otherwise it would probably be a one-for-one exchange between the two sides.

"How come these Sun thieves are so powerful?"

Zhang Fei clenched the spear in his hand, and was extremely surprised. He had experienced Sun's fighting power before. Not to mention half of what he had now, he couldn't even reach one-third or one-quarter of what he had now.

"Brother Yide, we should not continue the fight. Sun's men are all so full of energy. Even if we kill all 10,000 cavalrymen, I'm afraid we won't have many people left. We must ensure that we have enough manpower to wait for your support."

Zhao Yun stopped Zhang Fei, who was about to turn his horse around and continue to charge into the enemy's formation, and tried to dissuade him. Zhang Fei thought about it for a moment and realized that Zhao Yun was right, so he nodded immediately.

"Brother Zilong, you are right. What should we do next?"

If Zhang Fei were to go into battle and kill the enemy, he might be slightly stronger than Zhao Yun, but when it comes to strategy, Zhang Fei is far behind Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun frowned slightly. They had not expected why the combat effectiveness of Sun's army had suddenly improved so much.

"Let's go to the city gate and kill those infantrymen to reduce their strength as much as possible. I have asked Zhao Laoliu to inform Brother Junyi. If there is anything wrong, immediately rush out of Chengde and retreat towards Guangling to meet up with Brother!"

Zhao Yun shook off the blood on his spear.

"Brother Yide, let's charge in batches. You will be in charge of the city gate, and I will go find your deputy general to take over his command of the other 10,000 cavalry. We must kill as many as we can before the enemy cavalry can react!"

"Hahaha, great! I must kill to my heart's content today!"

Zhang Fei turned his horse and led the remaining cavalry to charge towards the city gate. Zhao Yun turned his horse's head, raised the Longdan Silver Spear, spurred his horse, and began to charge. One man against seven thousand, an unprecedented feat. Suddenly, a horse caught up with him from behind, and it was Zhang Fei who had just left.

"Brother Zilong, I can't leave you alone."

Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun, facing a total of 7,000 cavalrymen, did not show any fear, but only anger.

"kill!"

When the two sides got closer, Zhang Fei roared loudly, and a huge sound wave spread forward from Zhang Fei as the center. The hundreds of cavalrymen in the front were directly caused by Zhang Fei's roar to bleed from all seven orifices and fainted. Fainting during the cavalry charge was the same as death.

In addition to the hundreds of cavalrymen who were directly roared to unconsciousness, the cavalrymen behind were also affected to varying degrees. Before they could react, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun charged into the battle formation like two sharp knives.

Zhao Yun casually pulled out the sword hanging on his horse's belly, holding the sword in his left hand and the spear in his right hand, and swung it vigorously. Zhang Fei's eighteen spears in one hand were even more powerful. Every strike created a wave of air that blew away nearby cavalry. In this way, the two of them killed their way from the front of the formation to the back.

At the rear of the cavalry, Lu Meng held a tiger-browed halberd, gripped the reins tightly, and stared at the two people who were getting closer and closer to him. Just when they were about to get close, Zhao Yun suddenly threw out the sword in his hand, and the bright silver spear in his right hand wrapped around the red tassel of the hilt, tied the sword to the spear head, and when he swung it, not only the tip of the spear could kill people, but blood also flowed wherever the sword passed.

Nearly a hundred cavalrymen nearby were quickly cleared out by Zhao Yun. Zhang Fei rushed straight towards Lu Meng, and swung the last of his eighteen spears with one hand. It hit Lu Meng's tiger-forehead halberd with a loud bang, and actually knocked Lu Meng flying backwards.

The subordinates can enjoy the indomitable bonus from Zhou Yu, but Lu Meng cannot. His combat power is still the same as before. He originally thought that the opponent was too weak, but now it seems that is not the case. It is just that his subordinates have become stronger, but he has not.

He was hit backwards by Zhang Fei's spear and finally hit hard on a house. The huge impact caused the wooden house to cave in. Lu Meng vomited blood and struggled to stand up, but he couldn't. He could only force himself to sit up with his back against the house.

After finishing his spear attack, Zhang Fei had no lingering thoughts, not even the thought of finishing off the enemy. He rode away on his horse. Looking at the two men's backs as they left, Lü Meng felt Zhou Yu's previous frustration. Was the other man still human? The two men killed their way through the 7,000 cavalrymen, and the death toll was at least 2,000, if not 3,000. And this was only achieved by the two men.

The figures of the two gradually disappeared from Lu Meng's eyes. Lu Meng's last consciousness stayed on when one of his deputy generals came to support him, and then he completely lost consciousness.
