Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 79 Breaking Juancheng (2)

"Sir Xun Yu! Great news from the North Gate! The invading enemy has been defeated, but, just..." The soldier ran to Xun Yu and knelt down on one knee.

"It's just what? Say it!" Looking at the front and speaking at the end, some hesitant soldiers could not help but frown, and the feeling of ominousness in their hearts aggravated a little, so they shouted angrily.

"Return to your lord! It's just that Lord Xiahou Dun was injured and is still in a coma. He has already been carried down and let the military doctor see it." The soldier said hastily.

"What? You said Yuan Rang was injured and still in a coma?" Cao Ren was shocked when he heard this!He still knew Xiahou Dun's strength, but he didn't expect to be injured and unconscious. What happened over there?
"Yes sir, Lord Xiahou was seriously injured and unconscious. I heard from the brothers who brought him back that Lord Xiahou was caught off guard and was seriously injured by the enemy's sneak attack. He vomited blood and fell unconscious on the ground." The soldier hurriedly told what he knew.

Xun Yu and Cao Ren looked at each other. Although Xiahou Dun was a little reckless, he was not a fool without brains. How could he be attacked so easily?The more Xun Yu thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong.

Outside the city, in Li Song's own formation, a soldier knelt in front of Li Song and reported, "Sign up to my lord! Lord Pei has taken the north gate of Juancheng according to my lord's orders."

"Okay! Send the order! Ming Jin withdraws the troops!" Li Song was overjoyed after hearing this, but he didn't ask people to step up the attack. Instead, he ordered Ming Jin to withdraw the troops and withdraw the attacking army.

The beheading operation has begun!Pei Yuanqing's action was beheading.

"My lord! Look quickly, the enemy is retreating!" Just as Xun Yu's uneasiness grew, a soldier pointed at the slowly retreating enemy army.

Looking at the retreating enemy army, leaving a mess behind, Xun Yu couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief. Fighting the enemy these days, he has figured out some of the enemy's habits. As long as it is dusk, he will withdraw his army and wait for tomorrow to launch an attack.

In other words, Juancheng was defended today, but the food in the city could not last long. Looking up at the sunset in the distance, Xun Yu was really relieved. Thinking of the shortage of food and grass, he couldn't help worrying. Up to now, whether Juancheng can be held is still a question.

"Order people to take advantage of this time to repair the damaged city wall and strengthen the fortifications. Tomorrow will be another fierce battle." Xun Yu said to the guards around him, "By the way, send people to take the dead soldiers outside the city. The body was recovered."

Taking advantage of this time, neither side will attack and collect the remains of the soldiers who died in battle. Both sides have reached a consensus on this aspect. When collecting the corpses, no one is allowed to attack the other side. This is an insult to the soldiers who died in battle.

"Let's go! Zixiao, let's go see Yuan Rang together. I'm always a little uneasy." Xun Yu said to Cao Ren, turned around and walked down the wall, and went to the military doctor's office with Cao Ren to see how Xiahou Dun was doing. Condolences to the wounded.

"Is Yuan Rang inside?" Xun Yu and Cao Ren came to a tent and said to the guards dressed as soldiers under Pei Yuanqing who were standing outside.

"My lord! Master Xiahou is inside! The military doctor is showing your injury." The guard clasped his fists and saluted, and no one else noticed anything wrong.

"Are you Yuan Rang's personal guard? Why haven't I seen you before? How did Yuan Rang get attacked, and why are you guarding here? Where is Yuan Rang's personal guard?" Cao Ren stepped forward and looked at the Look, only to realize that the person in front of him is unfamiliar, he knows all of Xiahou Dun's personal guards, and there is absolutely no such person among them.

"Return to your lord! Lord Xiahou's personal guards fought bravely in this battle, and most of them were lost, and the rest were injured. Only then was Lord Xiahou taken advantage of by the enemy and injured your lord."

"Because Lord Xiahou's personal guards were all injured and unable to guard Lord Xiahou here, the younger one has the opportunity to guard here. The younger one is no more than a commoner. He only joined the army when the enemy came. The adult doesn't know the younger one. It's normal." The guard said hastily.

After Cao Ren heard this, he nodded. After all, many people in Cao's army were recruited before the offensive and defensive battles started, so it's not surprising that they don't know each other.

"You tell me the situation at that time, I want to know why Yuan Rang was injured and passed out." Xun Yu said.

"My lord, that's how it happened." After the guard revised the whole thing, he told Xun Yu and Cao Ren, letting them know about Xiahou Dun's coma.

After Xun Yu heard this, he didn't say a word, and when he was about to enter the big tent with Cao Ren, the guard stepped forward to stop Xun Yu and Cao Ren and said, "My lords, Lord Xiahou is still in a coma. Too many people go in, look!" After saying that, he looked towards the guards behind them.

"What? How dare you stop Wen Ruo and me from going in to visit Yuan Rang?" Cao Ren glared at the guard.

The guard hurriedly knelt down and said in awe and fear: "My lord, calm down! If you give the little one a hundred courage, even the little one won't dare to stop the lord."

"Okay! It's really not appropriate to bring troops in. Yuan Rang is still in a coma after all. It would not be a good thing if others find out about it." Xun Yu said, stretching out his hand to signal the guards to stay outside the camp. He and Cao Ren went in , the guard hastily made way for a passage.

The two of Xun Yu entered the tent, Xia Houdun was lying quietly on the bed, and the medical staff was busy, these were pretended by Pei Yuanqing and Ying Ying.

As soon as they saw Xun Yu and the two of them, they hurriedly stopped what they were doing, bowed to them and said, "I have seen you two adults!" While their eyes were on Xiahou Dun, they looked at each other and nodded quietly. .

"How is Yuan Rang doing now? When will he wake up?" Xun Yu asked the medical staff.

"Return to my lord! Master Xiahou's injury is not serious anymore, it's just that he suffered a severe impact on the head, and it may take a few days to wake up." One of them replied.

At this moment, the shadow leader and Pei Yuanqing had quietly approached behind Xun Yu and Cao Ren. As soon as they approached behind them, Cao Ren immediately sensed that something was wrong. He quickly grasped the hilt of his sword and was about to draw it out of its sheath, but was knocked unconscious by Pei Yuanqing past.

He was fast, Pei Yuanqing was faster than him, and on Xun Yu's side, a dagger was pressed against his neck, and the shadow leader easily controlled Xun Yu.

The guards outside the camp were also dealt with quietly by the enemies who came up from behind. This camp was controlled by Pei Yuanqing and others early in the morning.

"It seems that the North Gate has fallen! I'm afraid Juancheng may be in danger at this time." Xun Yu sighed, never expecting that he would become a prisoner so easily.

"It's not possible, maybe it's already succeeded, Juancheng has changed hands." Pei Yuanqing came to Xun Yu and said.

"Our army still has at least [-] fighters in the city. Even if you attack from the north gate, it is impossible to take Juancheng in such a short time." Xun Yu said in disbelief.

"Of course you can't attack by force. What if you put medicine in their food? What do you think?" Pei Yuanqing laughed.

Xun Yu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know what to say, yes!Isn't it all solved by taking medicine?Xun Yu closed his eyes helplessly.

After eating, everyone in Juancheng fell into a coma, and no one was spared. The closed south gate was slowly opened from the inside, and Li Song led the army into this Juancheng, which cost him a lot of troops.

Before night fell, Juancheng fell into Li Song's hands silently, officially changing hands.
