Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 335 I am good at shooting black arrows

"Okay!" Zhou Cang stared at Chen Dao. "Not only does it depend on you to avenge evil, but the success of the Liaodong War depends entirely on you."

Chen Dao knelt on the ground. "Chen Dao is willing to do it!"

"I want you to rush back to Xiangping immediately."

"what?"

"You can only establish extraordinary achievements in Xiangping. Yang Yi and Tian Guang would never think that there is another pawn in the city. Tian Guang has already left the city, so you will not be seen through!"

"What should I do after entering the city?" Chen Dao's first thought was to assassinate Gongsun Du and Yang Yi.

"Don't do anything, you must gain their trust first! You have been out for a day, and you must not have returned. Yang Hu and Yang Yi have already suspected and started to deploy. After you returned to Xiangping, you said that you were captured by my scout. The people with you were killed, you broke free and took the horse and fled back. They may not believe you, you can listen to what the horse said: our army general Gan Ning has defeated the Liaodong navy, occupied the water village and cut off Lelang, our army has passed Wan, they will arrive in Xiangping and join Pei Yuanshao in a day. With these two pieces of information, they will surely relax their doubts about you."

"Then what do I need to do?" Chen Dao asked eagerly.

"First, I will find a way to lure Liaodong soldiers out of the city, and send another army to surprise Xiangping from the north gate. After entering the city, you have to lead them. Second, in the chaos, look for opportunities to assassinate the enemy's general and create Greater confusion."

"Yes!" Chen Dao gave the order loudly. "There are still a few things to tell the lord to know: Gongsun Du's two confidantes, Yang Yi and Liu Yi, Yang Yi's brother Yang Li is the commander of the navy, and Liu Yi's younger brother Liu Zhi has 7000 people stationed in Xuantu, and Le Lang Zhang Qi, the prefect of Junyuan, was exiled by Gongsundu to seek refuge with Han Fu, and retired because he failed to persuade Liu Yu to become emperor. Now Lelang is guarded by Gongsunyu, a son of Gongsundu's clan, with about 5000 people, mainly relying on the navy for defense. "

"I know about Yang Li, he has committed suicide, you can tell Yang Yi." Zhou Cang suddenly thought that since he had an enmity with the Yang family, could he consider wooing the Liu family to work for him in the future.

This thought flashed by, and now it's time to ignore it.Zhou Cang turned his head and said to Sun Da: "You immediately send people on fast horses, three horses per person, and the horse rests non-stop. Within two days, they will go to the west of Liaoxi to deliver a letter to Wu Gang. The trick to lure the enemy has failed. Let him quickly lead people to detour to the north. Cut off the reinforcements in the direction of Xuantu. I estimate that the opponent is two to 3000 people. After eliminating the opponents, they put on Liaodong armor and enter Xiangping as reinforcements. There are people in the city to respond. All this must be completed within five days. Today is March 21, which is Said that on the night of March 26, Wu Gang would find a way to enter Xiangping."

Only Wu Gang is the only mobile chess piece that Zhou Cang can use. At the critical moment, Zhou Cang boldly uses Wu Gang to take on the important task, which is not without gambling.But can this win Xiangping?Chen Dao and Cao Xing looked at each other, and Sun Da trotted out to deliver the order. There were only five days in total, and he had to fight every moment.

Zhou Cang continued to say to Cao Xing: "The army will be reorganized tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow is March 23. Sun Da and I will lead the auxiliary troops transporting supplies to pretend to be the main force, pretending that ten thousand people will go to Xiangping to join Pei Yuanshao. You lead the inner guard battalion and The [-] main force of the Lietu Battalion chose an area nearby to set up an ambush, waiting for the enemy soldiers to catch up and encircle and wipe them out."

"My lord, how can I set up an ambush here because the terrain is flat? How can my lord lure the enemy out of the city?" Cao Xing asked in surprise.

"Use your brains more. With the help of the engineer battalion, you can dig more trenches and traps. The soldiers hide in the trenches with wooden boards and thin soil. The road is blocked by chariot formations, and the ambush soldiers are hidden on the wings. I put all the bows and crossbows. I leave it all to you, I estimate that there will be no more than [-] pursuers, if you eat this group of troops, Liaodong will be settled." Zhou Cang's eyes flashed coldly. "As for how to lure the enemy troops out of the city, hehe, hehehe, don't they just expect me to die?"

"Yes, Cao Xing will never disgrace his life." I am good at shooting black arrows.Cao Xing originally thought that it was a bit of a joke for Zhou Cang to bet on Wu Gang, but now it seems that he is the highlight, and his main purpose is to eliminate the main force of the Liaodong Army.

"There is still one more day tomorrow. The army can help you prepare together. After I set off the day after tomorrow, I will rely on you. Make sure to set up an ambush before March 25. Well, you can send orders. Chen Dao has something to eat, overnight Hurry back, the success of this plan is entirely up to you, and you must not make the city suspect that I have learned of their plan."

"Yes! My lord, take care!" Chen Dao bid farewell to Zhou Cang with tears in his eyes, and rushed back to Xiangping on his flying horse, ignoring his meal.

Zhou Cang stumbled back to the bed tent in a daze, already weeping uncontrollably. "It's up to me to plan things, and it's up to the sky to make things happen. If evil comes from the spring, if you have knowledge, help me!"

On March 22, at sunrise, Chen Dao rushed to the city of Xiangping. "Open the door quickly. I'm Chen Zhi. I need to see you."

The city guards hurriedly reported to Yang Hu, who rushed to the top of the city and poked his head out of the city wall: "Chen Zhi, why are you coming back now, where are the others? Why did you come back from the south gate?"

"It's hard to explain in one word, please let the general let me enter the city, I have something important to report."

Yang Hu looked suspiciously and saw that there was no one outside the city. "Lower the basket and pull him up."

Chen Dao abandoned his horse and climbed into the hanging basket, was pulled up to the top of the wall by the soldiers, and was immediately surrounded by several soldiers.

"Hey, I almost couldn't come back. If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't have taken up this job. I almost lost my life." Chen Dao complained, "Be gentle, why do you treat me like a thief? It's hard to call me Brother Chen when I drink for you , prepare me something to eat, I’m starving to death. Is there any water, give me a drink first, mother, I ran away in the middle of the night and didn’t drink a sip of water.”

Yang Hu nodded, signaling to the soldiers not to hold Chen Dao too tightly, and go find something to eat.Seeing the disheveled Chen Dao gulp down a few sips of water, he asked sullenly, "Tell me, what's going on."

"Oh, bad luck, bad luck, no wonder the general doesn't want that iron halberd. We just buried Dian Wei outside the city south, and we wanted to catch our breath, but we didn't expect five people to appear suddenly, and when they came up, they surrounded us and knocked us out. , When we woke up, we found that we were tied up. A few of us pretended not to wake up, and eavesdropped on their conversations, only to find out that it was Zhou Cang’s photo of the probing horse. You said it was not unlucky.”

Yang Hu's face immediately changed color, "Where is Zhou Cang?"

"It's about fifty miles away from Xiangping." Chen Dao went on to say, "They kept going south. At night they stopped to prepare for dinner. When they dispersed, we tried to escape. Yang Zhen and I broke free. tied up, took one horse and ran back, but the other two couldn't run, and were killed on the spot..."

"What about Yang Zhen?" Yang Zhen is Yang Hu's distant nephew.

"We were running forward, they were chasing after, and they were still shooting arrows behind me. Yangzhen took an arrow behind me, and the arrow hit the back of my heart. I thought he was dead, so I abandoned him and fled back alone."

"Huh? Didn't you deliberately keep him in danger for your own escape?"
