The Conquest of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 308 Change Strategy

At the cost of hundreds of casualties, Gongsun Yuan blocked the surging enemies under the city wall.

Suddenly, an arrow pierced through the air and came straight towards Gongsun Yuan.

Gongsun Yuan didn't move at all, but when the arrow was within a short distance, he slightly tilted his head, and the tiger's palm protruded out like lightning.

That extremely powerful arrow was actually caught by his volley.

The Chu army under the city wall were all shocked when they saw Gongsun Yuan catch the arrow with his bare hands.

"Bring the bow!"

Gongsun Yuan shouted angrily, and snatched a hard bow from one of his subordinates.

The bow is like a crescent moon, and the arrow is like a shooting star.

That sharp arrow, like the smile of death, pierced through the air.

"Pfft!"

The enemy soldier who was shooting the arrow with an arrow hit the forehead impartially.

When Gongsun Yuan performed the hundred-step marksmanship, the Yan family's athletes on the top of the wall were deeply encouraged, and everyone cheered loudly.

The morale of the Chu army under the city was frustrated, and they all showed fear.

Morale went up and down one after another, and the Chu army's second round of attack soon sank again.

Seeing this, Lu Bu outside the city knew that it would be useless to fight again, and he didn't care about what he said just now. In the end, he ordered all the Chu troops to return to the camp before making plans.

Seeing the retreat of the Chu army, the captain of the city head, covered in blood, shouted excitedly: "General, the enemy soldiers have retreated, why don't you take this opportunity to go out of the city, and kill him without leaving any behind."

According to the current situation, Gongsun Yuan could have taken advantage of the victory to pursue.

However, Gongsun Yuan knew very well that the Lü Bu army outside was all the elite soldiers of the Xiliang cavalry. Judging from the experience of the previous fights, he defeated the Xiliang cavalry, especially when his strength was far greater than his own. , defeating them is almost impossible.

Moreover, although Lu Bu retreated, his team was orderly, obviously guarding against Gongsun Yuan's army taking advantage of the situation to cover up and kill him.

Thinking of this, Gongsun Yuan waved his hands and said: "There is no need to chase, our enemy is not only the Chu army in front of us, save some strength, and we will have a decisive battle in the future."

So Gongsun Yuan ordered the whole army not to pursue, and only used arrows to send off the defeated enemy.

In the afternoon, after leaving more than 700 corpses, the Chu army withdrew them all.

On the top of the city, the Liaodong soldiers who had won the bloody victory waved their blood-stained weapons, cheered and let out their pride.

Fighting in the daytime, it was already dark in a blink of an eye.

In the middle of the night, the inside and outside of Liaoyang City fell into silence. The two armies who had just rested from the battle seemed to be exhausted, and they rested in tacit understanding without disturbing each other.

However, Lu Bu finally got entangled with Zang Ba, Zhang Bao, Zhou Cang and other armies. After three days of fierce fighting, they finally attacked Liaoyang City. Gongsun Yuan finally retreated to a valley outside the city, where he had a large reserve In the end, Lu Bu accepted the suggestion of Ma Liang, the staff officer of his army, and carried out a surprise attack by digging tunnels.

At the beginning of January, Lu Bu came to a mansion in the northeast corner of Liaoyang City.

This mansion, which was originally a residential house, was requisitioned for military use shortly after Lu Bu's army captured Liaoyang City. About 500 soldiers had been buried here day and night for seven or eight days.

When they entered the mansion, more than 2000 infantry who had not participated in the battle this morning had already been waiting for a long time.

Zang Ba was fully armed and stood in the center of the compound with a long gun in his hand. Some kind of inexplicable excitement surged on his heroic face.

Seeing Lu Bu's arrival, Zang Ba hastily went up to greet him, cupped his hands and said, "General, everything is ready, just waiting for the general's order."

Lu Buhuan glanced at his athletes and nodded slightly.

Zang Ba then turned around and waved to his subordinates.

Several soldiers hurried to the center of the courtyard, and all the straw mats laid in the center of the courtyard were lifted.

A huge deep pit suddenly appeared in the deep pit in front of him, and there was a tunnel, which was dark and had no end.

This tunnel, dug inside Liaoyang City, leads directly to the main camp of the Liaodong Army outside the city.

This tunnel is exactly Ma Liang's clever plan to defeat the enemy.

The former Fan Lubu Army first occupied Liaoyang City. When Ma Liang surveyed the terrain outside the city, he saw where the Liaodong Army was stationed, so he sent troops to dig this tunnel in advance day and night.

Gongsun Yuan, who was in the main camp, never expected that there was a secret road leading directly to Liaoyang City under the camp where he was.

Lu Bu looked around at the soldiers, most of the soldiers used this time were from Zang Ba's original trilogy, and the faces of these young athletes were full of excitement at this moment.

It can be seen that their blood is boiling.

"Bring the wine."

Lu Bu gave a loud shout.

Behind the army, he was anxious to share the spirits he had prepared with the athletes.

Lu Bu raised his cup, his eyes were full of agitation, and he said loudly: "Tonight, success or failure is in your hands. This cup is toasted to you. If we win tomorrow, we will never stop getting drunk."

All in one drink.

"Bang~~"

Lu Bu slammed the wine glass with no drops on the ground and smashed it to pieces.

All the athletes drank up their wine, following Lu Bu's example, they smashed their wine glasses to the ground.

In the compound, there was a sound of cracking and cracking, and the messy sound seemed to be more exciting than the sound of war drums.

After drinking all the wine, Lu Bu patted Zang Ba on the shoulder, and said solemnly: "General Zang, it's up to you, don't let this general down."

"Don't worry, general, the tyrant will not disgrace his life!"

Zang Ba responded, his heroic face filled with fortitude and confidence.

Lu Bu nodded, and looked around the army again, his blade-like eyes were full of hunting pride.

After a while of silence, Lu Bu waved his hand and said sharply, "The time has come, the assault team is going."

Under the command, holding a torch in one hand and a gun in the other, Zang Ba was the first to jump down the deep pit, and after only one glance, he got into the secluded tunnel without hesitation.

The remaining eight hundred athletes jumped down into the pit one after another, and filed in without any hesitation.

Lu Bu watched the last raiding soldier enter the tunnel, and then rode his horse to the east gate of Liaoyang City.

At the gate of the city, five hundred Xiliang cavalry were already in place.

Under the dark moon, the iron armor faintly reflected the cold light, and the five hundred heavy knights were fully armed, like ghost generals in the ghost mansion.

After the five hundred heavy cavalry, there were more than 3000 elite light cavalry. In addition to the divine cavalry, Lu Bu's elite army had already assembled.

Lu Bu boarded the top of the city and looked far and wide at the Liaodong main camp on the northeast side of the city. The lights were still bright there, and Gongsun Yuan could even see the figures of Liaodong soldiers patrolling outside the camp gate.

After all, Gongsun Yuan still has some ability to use soldiers, and he has counselors to assist him. The camp was set up quite cleverly.

It seems that Gongsun Yuan had long been on guard against Lu Bu's robbing the camp. He set up a lot of antlers around the camp, and dug deep trenches, which can be described as impenetrable.

"No matter how strong a fortress is, it can be easily attacked from within. Gongsun Yuan, the last famous general of the Gongsun family, will teach you a good lesson tonight."

The corner of Lu Bu's mouth gradually turned into a sneer, and murderous intent was surging in his eyes.

The soldiers behind him were not as confident as Lu Bu, and there was some uneasiness on the excited faces of these young people.

Lu Bu then ordered the table to be brought in and boiled a pot of wine. He leaned against the wall and tasted the wine leisurely.

Seeing that the general is so calm and confident, the nervousness of the soldiers gradually calmed down.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and the short night seemed extremely long.

Zang Ba in the tunnel pressed his tall body and walked slowly in the narrow tunnel.

He doesn't know how long time has passed, he only knows to keep moving forward.

In the entire tunnel, all that can be heard in the ears is the sound of heavy breathing one after another.

I don't know how long it took before finally arriving at the end of the tunnel. Here, the tunnel is divided into three forks, and three prominent points are set up, in order to ensure that at least one of them will not be dug under the tent of the Liaodong Army.

Zang Ba turned his head and made a gesture, and the soldiers behind him divided into three groups and entered three forks respectively.

Zang Ba chose the center. He came to the bottom of the tunnel and dug it up gently with his own hands.

Although according to estimates, the tunnel is less than a few feet away from the ground, but in order not to make noise as much as possible, he had to slow down his movements as much as possible in order to make the least noise.

It took Zang Ba almost an hour to dig a few feet away.

When the small hole appeared, the hearts of Zang Ba and the other soldiers in the tunnel rose to their throats in an instant.

No one can be sure where the cave will open, maybe it's a deserted place, maybe it's just under Gongsun Yuan's big tent, it depends on luck.

There was silence outside the entrance of the cave, no footsteps or snoring of soldiers could be heard.

Everyone's hanging hearts were relieved, and when they confirmed that there was no one at the entrance of the cave, Zang Ba accelerated his speed and quickly widened the entrance of the cave.

Then, with a spear in hand, he was the first to climb out of the hole.

Looking around vigilantly and quickly, Zang Ba's tense face unexpectedly showed an uncontrollable surprise.

"Damn it, I'm so lucky that I even dug up the grain farm of the Liaodong Army!"

Zang Ba, who was so excited, called the rest of the soldiers to come up quickly. In a short while, hundreds of commandos bravely sneaked into the Liaodong barracks.

The surrounding area was still quiet, and no one noticed their existence.

Zang Bahuan glanced around, and said in a low voice: "What are you doing in a daze, set fire to me, burn his mother."

Under the command, hundreds of athletes were divided into several teams and set fires in all directions.

The flames rose ragingly, straight into the sky.

Lu Bu, who was tasting wine by himself on the top of the wall, was secretly anxious.

Although he designed this plan, he failed to calculate exactly where the tunnel could be dug.

Zang Ba is very clear that although this strategy is wonderful, it is not [-]% successful.

He also needs a little luck.

"General, look quickly, the camp of the Liaodong Army is on fire!" Zhang Bao beside him suddenly shouted excitedly.

Lu Bu's heart shook, and he jumped up.

After a few steps, he rushed to the edge of the battlements, looked up and saw that the Liao army's Dazhai side and rear were suddenly on fire.

"Sure enough, God helped me too, haha——"

Lu Bu laughed wildly with excitement, turned around and picked up Fang Tian's painting halberd, and quickly walked down to the top of the city.

When they got on their horses, the morale of the generals had been revived, and they seemed to have seen the signal that the battle was about to start from Lu Bu's face.

"Open the city gate and pull up the drawbridge!"

Lu Bu shouted orders.
