The first general of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 52 Unexpected Victory in the Darkness
As the night fell, the inside and outside of the entire city was dark. Although it would not be possible to stretch out your fingers, you could no longer see the scenery more than ten meters away.

Although he had never experienced a city defense battle, Wei Tao and Zhang Liao decided on a plan to defend the city after some discussion.

Just on the surrounding city walls, there are dozens of torches burning on each side, and there are even soldiers patrolling back and forth on the city walls.

Moreover, Wei Tao even discussed with the county magistrate Huang Wen that after nightfall, no soldiers who were not patrolling the city were allowed to wander on the streets.

This is to prevent someone from communicating internally and externally, and cooperating internally and externally.

However, when night fell, there were still countless crowds of people in the dark night. Unfortunately, although there were torches on the city wall, the range of sight was not wide, and it was impossible to go far. It was impossible to see clearly before getting close.

More importantly, the moon and stars are rare, but the surrounding scenery can be barely distinguished, but at this time, I don’t know why a thick dark cloud enveloped the entire moonlight, and there was nothing under the moonlight. visible.

"Okay! Okay! As expected of an immortal envoy, he actually has this method of dispelling clouds."

"Hehe, this is passed down by the great virtuous and good teacher. If the great virtuous and good teacher came in person, why use such a small technique? Directly send the nine-day thunderbolt down, and a mere Chen Liucheng can be defeated."

There were small voices spreading in the darkness, and if someone familiar heard it, they would know that one of them was Zhao Jie.

"Qu Shuai, wait for me to cast another spell to make the sky rain down, so that Qu Shuai can get close to the city, and then I will leave everything to him."

"it is good!"

Hearing Zhao Jie's response, the envoy in yellow turban murmured something for a while, and then there was a drizzle of rain.

The rain wasn't that big, at most it was just a few drops of water falling from the sky, but it still dimmed the torches on the city wall, and even made the patrolling soldiers curse inwardly. What do you think.

"The envoy is really good at spells!"

In Zhao Jie's eyes, this scene naturally became the transmission of Zhang Jiao, a great virtuous teacher.

But even if Wei Tao saw it, he would be a little skeptical, is there really some cloud-dispelling technique in this world, otherwise, how could an ordinary yellow scarf envoy know how to observe the sky, and it just happened to be Yinghe. at this time?
"crunch..."

Just as the yellow scarf entered the city wall and was about to set up a ladder to attack the city by force, the city gate opened wide, and a group of people inside was about to sneak out.

Suddenly seeing each other, people on both sides were slightly taken aback.

However, compared to Zhao Jie, Wei Tao's reaction was faster. The Yellow Turban Army wanted to steal the city!
In fact, Wei Tao did not intend to sneak attack on the Yellow Turban camp tonight, but wanted to use the cover of night to send a group of troops out of the city to ambush. If there is a battle tomorrow, if the Yellow Turban Army dares to act like this, then Zhang Liao will lead them directly. Raid the rear army, thus establishing the situation in one fell swoop!
"This is the Yellow Turban bandit, kill him!"

After realizing that what was in front of him was the enemy, Wei Tao yelled suddenly, and then took the lead and led the people to kill the Yellow Turban Army.

"kill!"

That Zhao Jie may not be well-known in history, but I have to say that he does have some skills, and he soon came to his senses. Things are much more convenient.

But at this time, the difference between the two sides could be seen. After Wei Tao gave an order, all the soldiers rushed forward, but the Yellow Turban soldiers couldn't react one by one, and even faintly panicked.

"Clang clang clang..."

During the handover of weapons, Wei Tao also wanted to capture the thief first and capture the king first, but it was a pity that the night was dark at this time. Although Wei Tao did not have night blindness, he could barely distinguish between the enemy and us, and could not tell who was the leader of the opponent.

Such a chaotic battle has a great advantage for the Yellow Turban Army.

Once it is recovered by the Yellow Turban Army, then with its numerical advantage, it may really be won by the opponent.

"Form formation, charge!"

Wei Tao immediately ordered again, this time Wei Tao was going to ambush five hundred elites outside the city, among them was one hundred elite private soldiers from the Wei family.

And this time, all of these hundred private soldiers are already riding horses and holding armor, and their strength is incomparable.

"kill!"

Wei Tao gave an order, and immediately a hundred cavalry roared out like a dragon, but all obstacles in front of them were all leveled.

But for a moment, Wei Tao walked through the yellow scarf.

Only then did Wei Tao realize that the actual number of people was not as many as imagined.

Immediately, he saw Wei Tao going around, leading the cavalry to charge in a roundabout again, and entered the Yellow Turban Army.

"Damn cavalry!"

Zhao Jie's eyes were red when he saw Wei Tao leading the people galloping back and forth. These Yellow Turbans brought by Zhao Jie were not the kind of Yellow Turbans who were recruited hastily.

The death of one of these Yellow Turbans made Zhao Jie more heartbroken than the death of ten of those recruited to the Yellow Turbans.

"Kill! Kill into the city!"

Under such circumstances, Zhao Jie yelled frantically, and under such yelling, all the Yellow Turban soldiers finally rushed towards the city gate with all their might.

"kill!"

However, it was none other than Dian Wei who was guarding the gate of the city. Seeing countless yellow scarves coming, Dian Wei was not afraid at all. human life.

Dian Wei, the ancient evil comes.

Even if there is only one person, it can be guaranteed that no one can rush in through the city gate.

If it is a well-equipped army, it can still kill with arrows and the like, but for the Yellow Turban Army, it can only be filled with human lives, and the only purpose is to leave a scar on Dian Wei's body as much as possible.

But Dian Wei is not without soldiers behind him, with these soldiers, it is impossible to break through the encirclement in a short time.

"Damn!"

Seeing that Zhang Liao, who had left at the beginning of the battle, came again with soldiers to support him, Zhao Jie's heart was suddenly gloomy.

Could it be that we have to retreat again? With the protection of a great virtuous teacher, why can't we always win?

No matter how much Zhao Jie believed in Zhang Jiao on weekdays, at this time, he felt like his faith had collapsed.

"boom!"

Before waiting for Zhao Jie to order to retreat again, he suddenly saw a fire broke out in the Yellow Turban camp for no reason.

Originally, the Yellow Turban Taoist was a believer. After seeing his camp on fire, what he thought was not someone arson, but God's punishment.

"The Yellow Turban camp has fallen, so when you don't surrender!"

Wei Tao didn't know who set fire to the Yellow Turban camp, but when he saw the flames soaring into the sky, Wei Tao seized the opportunity and shouted loudly.

"Those who kneel and surrender will not be blamed for the past, and those who resist in the corner will be killed!"

Originally, a major weakness of the Yellow Turban Army was low morale. If they fell into fanaticism, they would naturally have nothing to fear, but when they were sober, they were extremely easy to be broken.

"I surrender...I surrender..."

Sure enough, many Yellow Turbans immediately knelt down and surrendered.

Seeing this, Zhao Jie also knew that the situation was over, he cast a bitter look at Wei Tao who was charging ahead, and immediately led his relatives to break through the siege.

Although Wei Tao couldn't distinguish Zhao Jie's actions from the crowd, Zhao Jie was not so lucky. Just after he led the people out of the encirclement, he saw a group of people rushing out of his own camp. .

"kill!"

All of a sudden, Zhao Jie couldn't react at all, a cold light flashed, and immediately he saw Zhao Jie's head and flew straight up.

With Zhao Jie's resistance, Wei Tao also noticed the visitor.

Although the opponent was not like an enemy, Wei Tao still hurriedly assembled the army to stand ready and ordered the city gate to be closed at the same time.

"Who is coming."

After doing all this, Wei Tao turned around to face him.

"Chenliu Weitao, the Yellow Turban bandits dared to attack Chenliu. Now the county magistrate ordered me to guard Chenliu and take charge of all affairs. If you are against the Yellow Turban, please report!"

However, the opponent obviously didn't mean to be an enemy. When they approached Chenliu County, the speed of each soldier had already slowed down greatly. It was not until Wei Tao got the team ready that a small group of people came forward immediately.

"Haha...it really is Ziyu!"

To Wei Tao's surprise, someone laughed and said as soon as the other party stepped forward.

"Ziyu is doing great things now, much better than us!"

Wei Tao took a closer look and immediately smiled. Among the four people in front of him, there were two people he knew well, Cao Ren and Cao Hong.

"It turned out to be the two elder brothers. I don't know why the elder brothers came here?"

Seeing these two people, Wei Tao immediately let go of his guard and made a gesture to let everyone off their guard before laughing.

"Thinking that the fire in the Yellow Turban camp was caused by the two brothers? It is really thanks to the help of the two brothers, otherwise I am afraid that this time I will be self-defeating."

"Haha... Ziyu is too modest. In fact, this time it is thanks to Miaocai and Yuan Rang that Zixiao and I just fought each other."

In front of Wei Tao, Cao Hong was as carefree as before, but Wei Tao was taken aback when he heard his words.

Wonderful talent, Yuan Rang?
Are these two strong and burly men Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun, Cao Cao's right-hand men who will conquer the world in the future?

"Miaocai, Yuan Rang, this is the Wei Tao and Wei Ziyu mentioned by Meng De many times. He has made a lot of achievements in northern Xinjiang. If Ziyu was not there, I am afraid that Chenliu County would have already died. Fall into the hands of the Yellow Turban bandits. Then our situation will be even worse."

After hearing Cao Hong and Cao Ren's introduction, Xia Houyuan and Xia Houdun looked at Wei Tao with admiration.

With such a wrong memory, it is much easier for the two parties to talk.

However, although Zhao Jie died, the yellow scarf was still there, so Wei Tao didn't dare to stay outside the city any longer, but he still ordered Zhang Liao to lead his men to ambush outside, fighting against Chenliu's city.

Seeing Wei Tao's methodical order, Cao Ren and the others couldn't help but secretly nodded their approval.
