We agreed that you, a weak strategist, would fight against three heroes by yourself?

Chapter 196 Xia Houyuan: Impossible, absolutely impossible

hide!

Can't hide!

In just a moment, the coldness rising behind him covered his whole body in an instant.

At this moment, Ji Ling felt as if his scalp was about to explode.

He tried to twist his body, even if he was hit by a shot, as long as it was not fatal, he would be able to distance himself, and then the guards on the left and right would come up.

The thoughts in my mind became extremely clear at this moment.

It's just that everything is just an idea.

Seeing that Ji Ling no longer wanted to fight, Zhao Yun's expression suddenly turned cold, and the gentian bright silver gun in his hand shook forward.

The gun body was like a long snake cutting through the air, and it went straight towards Ji Ling's back and heart.

The tip of the spear made contact with the armor.

The thrust was quite powerful. As the gun was pulled forward, Ji Ling's armor was already torn.

Then, Ji Ling in front let out a cry of pain!

The tip of the spear penetrated Ji Ling's body. Zhao Yun did not hesitate at all. He suddenly exerted force with his right arm, and the huge force directly pulled Ji Ling's figure into the air from the horse.

At this moment, the weapon in Ji Ling's hand had quietly fallen to the ground, and a trace of blood spread from the corner of his mouth.

At the same time, the generals under Ji Ling's command in the entire camp seemed to have noticed this scene.

Immediately after, someone started to open his mouth and shout.

"The general is dead, the general is dead!"

As the shouts became louder and louder, more and more generals laid down their weapons in the entire camp.

Dian Wei finally got out of his way and chased after him, but when he saw Ji Ling hanging on the tip of Zhao Yun's spear, he felt a little unhappy.

"Zilong, didn't I tell you to leave him to me?"

He complained to Zhao Yun that Ji Ling's skills were pretty good if he was going to fight today. It could at least make him happy.

But Dian Wei didn't expect that the opponent would be taken down by Zhao Yun so quickly.

"Yun Dao also wants to keep him, but I think he seems to be trying to escape!"

Zhao Yun was a little helpless.

The reason why he had not killed him before was because Dian Wei shouted just now, but he never thought that it was because of Dian Wei's shout.

Ji Ling's intention to retreat became more obvious.

It is not difficult for him to stop the opponent without hurting him.

However, I never thought that Ji Ling would try to distance herself from him even though she was injured.

If he was holding back, the other party would most likely break free, and then the situation in the camp would be difficult to control.

The opportunity was fleeting, and Zhao Yun couldn't care less.

Hearing what Zhao Yun said, Dian Wei turned his head and spat at Ji Ling, who was already dead and could no longer die.

It seems that he is scolding the other party for being unsatisfactory.

At this time, as Ji Ling took the lead, some soldiers in the entire military camp who were still resisting gave up their resistance.

It didn't take long for the camp to become quiet.

All that was left was the flames still burning behind the camp.

"Evil is coming, don't be in a daze, hurry up and get someone to put out the fire!"

Now that they have recaptured Ji Ling's army, the burning food and grass will naturally become their spoils of war.

After hearing Zhao Yun's call, Dian Wei reacted and quickly led his people forward to put out the fire.

And when Zhao Yun and Dian Wei attacked Ji Ling's army at night, they were far away from Xiapi City.

Following the explosion of fireworks, a flash of fire soon appeared on the sky.

Above the dark sky, the firelight illuminated half of the sky.

Even in the direction of Xiapi City, you can almost see clearly.

At this moment, Xia Houyuan had already been woken up by his subordinates. When he was far away and the fire was soaring into the sky, he was a little unresponsive.

After hurriedly putting on his armor, Xia Houyuan immediately rushed towards the direction of Xiapi City Wall.

When they reached the Xiapi city wall, without any hesitation, Xia Houyuan led his subordinates up the city wall.

The fire in the distance was still burning.

With just one glance, Xia Houyuan had already realized what was going on.

If he read correctly in that direction, it was probably where Ji Ling's army was stationed.

He had already been there once before during the night raid, and now it was an all-too-familiar thing.

When Xia Houyuan climbed up the city wall, Chen Deng, who was on the city wall at the moment, immediately noticed someone coming.

After seeing that it was Xia Houyuan, Chen Deng thought for a moment and then took the initiative to approach.

"Congratulations General!"

Chen Deng spoke first.

In any case, the fire at the Ji Lingjun camp far away is a good thing for the entire Xiapi.

As Chen Deng spoke, the corners of Xia Houyuan's lips twitched involuntarily.

He naturally understood what the other party meant.

However, when I thought about the fire burning far away, and Xi Yu had mentioned the attack tonight, I thought that Xi Fengyi was the cause of this commotion.

However, his men informed him that Xi Fengyi was still in the city, and the other party had not even left Xiapi City, so the night attack was already known to be successful.

This matter is somewhat difficult for Xia Houyuan to accept.

Obviously he had led a night attack last night, so why was there such a big difference between the two?

Xia Houyuan's face turned dark.

Chen Deng next to him naturally understood this skill.

He glanced at the fire in the distance and already had some guesses.

"General, if my guess is correct, the place where the fire is burning must be where the food and fodder of Ji Ling's army is!"

Chen Deng spoke.

Xia Houyuan suddenly understood after hearing this.

Liangcao, as a general in the army, he had naturally thought about attacking the opponent's grain and grass location during the previous night attack.

It's just that this thing is so easy.

You know, for every general, the location of the army's food and grass is a top priority.

Food and grass are related to the livelihood of an army, and there is no room for sloppiness.

The defenders stationed at the forage must be the elite of the camp, and their strength may even be several times that of other places.

How could such a place be easily attacked or even set off a fire?

This kind of thing, just think about it and you will know how difficult it is.

But now, the fire burning in the distance made it very clear to them.

Xi Yu's night attack strategy has been somewhat successful.

Chen Deng next to him naturally understood it very well. Chen Deng couldn't help but feel a little more solemn about Xi Yu.

The rumored drama Fengyi is indeed no ordinary person!

Being able to do things that are difficult for ordinary people to do so easily is naturally beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Xia Houyuan's mood was a little complicated.

Logically speaking, Ji Ling's army was damaged, and as the defender of Xuzhou, he should be extremely happy.

However, when he thought that Xi Yu had done this, it was difficult for him to feel happy.

On the one hand, compared with his night attack before, now that he is in front of the other party, he does not seem particularly useless.

On the other hand, there is already some distance between Xi Fengyi and the Cao clan members.

Xia Houyuan was naturally not happy that he was no longer a fellow traveler.

What Xia Houyuan thought, Chen Deng beside him didn't really care.

In Chen Deng's view, it was a good thing that Ji Ling's army was injured, so Naxi Fengyi's ability was somewhat recognized by them.

On the city wall, Chen Deng and Xia Houyuan were staring at the firelight on the hillside in the distance.

At the same time in Xiapi City, Xi Zhicai and Guo Jiazheng were looking up at the sky from a high building.

Even though the fire outside Xiapi City was a little far away, it could still be seen against the sky.

"It seems that tonight's night attack has been successful!"

Guo Jia looked at the sky and chuckled.

Xi Zhi beside him nodded.

The two of them naturally believed in Xi Yu. After seeing the color of fire flashing on the sky, the two of them didn't look much more, turned around and returned to the building.

After about an hour, the distant fire gradually extinguished.

At this time, Xia Houyuan and Chen Deng were both frowning on Xiapi City.

At this moment, Xia Houyuan was standing on the city wall, his mind a little confused.

Chen Deng began to think about how to deal with the next relationship with Xi Yu.

I don't know how much time passed, and when both of them were silent, suddenly there was a sound of horse hooves in the distance outside Xiapi City.

Just by listening to the sound, I knew that there were many war horses going out in the distance.

This kind of movement is the sound that can be reflected by at least thousands of people.

The horses' hooves vibrated, and some tremors were felt on the entire Xiapi city wall.

The sudden sound brought Xia Houyuan and Chen Deng back to their senses instantly.

The two of them subconsciously looked into the distance. At this time, the sky had not yet lit up.

I don't know if it was because of the fire in the distance just now, but the crescent moon that was originally hanging in the sky was now hidden behind the clouds.

The sky became a little darker.

There seems to be a large army outside the city, and it is difficult to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy.

Xia Houyuan immediately noticed a warning sign. He did not expect that the men and horses sent by Xi Yu to attack at night would return at this time.

It was actually far away from the fire, and it only took about an hour now.

It's really a little too fast.

Even if Ji Ling was defeated, he couldn't be defeated like this.

At this moment, an army suddenly appeared outside the city, and Xia Houyuan instinctively thought it was an enemy army coming to attack.

Chen Deng next to him thought the same thing.

Neither of them thought that the army that attacked at night had returned, but that there might be enemy troops taking advantage of this time to attack Xiapi City.

Almost subconsciously, Xia Houyuan asked the people on the city wall to extinguish the torches.

Then he gave the order.

"According to the order, the troops will be under martial law to prevent the enemy from attacking the city!"

Xia Houyuan was a little anxious, but Chen Deng beside him didn't say much.

At this time, he hid behind the battlements, as if he was afraid of some stray arrows flying up from under the city.

At the same time, not far outside the city.

The movement caused by the horse's hooves was none other than Zhao Yun and his party who had just returned from attacking the camp.

This night attack not only killed Yuan Shu's general Ji Ling, but also captured eight thousand soldiers and horses in the opponent's camp along with the Suwei camp.

If it weren't for the darkness of the night, there would have been another roar in Ji Ling camp.

I'm afraid they can capture even more soldiers, not even ten thousand.

After capturing Ji Ling's army, Zhao Yun arrived without further delay and saved some food and grass.

He and Dian Wei immediately hurriedly led the people back towards Xiapi City.

According to the original plan, Huang Zhong would meet them at the east gate of Xiapi.

However, on the way back, due to the darkness, when Zhao Yun and Dian Wei led the people back, they unknowingly walked to the south gate of Xiapi.

At this time, when he saw torches burning on the city wall from a distance, Zhao Yun instinctively thought that he and others had not gone wrong.

I guess Huang Zhong was waiting for them on the city wall.

Everyone quickly began to look at the city approaching.

However, who would have thought that at this moment, the torches on the city wall suddenly went out one by one.

Even before Zhao Yun and others got close, dozens of air-piercing sounds suddenly resounded in the air around them.

Fortunately, the distance was not yet close and it was night again, so the sharp arrows that pierced the sky did not cause any damage to the group of people led by Zhao Yun.

However, the sudden appearance of sharp arrows still made Zhao Yun and others feel alarmed.

"what's going on?"

Dian Wei shouted beside Zhao Yun.

They have just arrived, why are there suddenly cold arrows shooting down from the top of the city wall?

Something is obviously wrong with this!

Zhao Yun frowned and didn't even think about what was going on.

He still didn't know that he had led people to the wrong city gate, but when he saw that it was indeed Xiapi City in front of him, he was still a little confused.

"I don't know either!"

Zhao Yun shook his head and looked towards the city wall. The distance was a bit far, and because of the moonlight, it was difficult to see clearly what was happening on the city wall.

He could only ask his soldiers to stop first, and then he found a detective horse to investigate.

At the same time, on the city wall.

The defenders of Xiapi City were somewhat nervous.

Although it was difficult to see clearly under the cover of night, not far from the city, there was a continuous darkness, which made people somewhat nervous.

"General, the army below seems to have stopped!"

Someone made a sound towards Xia Houyuan.

Xia Houyuan naturally saw this movement.

However, although the army under the city stopped, they showed no intention of retreating.

"Let someone check and see who is lying on the ground below?"

The opponent did not choose to attack the city, so Xia Houyuan was naturally not in a hurry. If he could find out the opponent's identity, it would not be too late.

However, at this moment, a group of soldiers suddenly rushed towards us from the direction of Dongcheng.

The leader is Huang Zhong.

When Huang Zhong saw the fire rising outside Xiapi City before, he knew that Zhao Yun and others had succeeded in the night attack.

Afterwards, after seeing the fire extinguished, he waited for Zhao Yun and others to return.

I just waited and waited, but I still didn't see any returning army from the front of Dongcheng.

This made Huang Zhong somewhat confused.

Until, just now, Xia Houyuan suddenly ordered the soldiers in the city to gather under martial law to prepare for an attack on the city.

Huang Zhong then realized something was wrong.

How could someone come to attack the city at this time!

If there was such a movement, only Zhao Yun and others had returned to the army.

However, when that guy Zhao Yun returned with his people, wasn't he supposed to take the direction of the east gate as agreed? Why did he end up at the south gate?

Anyway, since Zhao Yun was not waiting for his return, Huang Zhong asked his men to continue watching at the east gate.

He hurriedly led a group of soldiers straight to the south city wall.

After falling on the south city, Huang Zhong raised his eyes and saw Chen Deng standing behind the battlements and looking down the city.

He moved forward, and at this moment, the clouds covering the crescent moon moved away.

The surroundings suddenly became a little brighter.

At the same time, under the city wall.

The Tanma sent by Zhao Yun had already returned to Zhao Yun's side.

"General, we went to the wrong city gate. The one ahead is Xiapi South Gate!"

Tan Ma responded.

Only then did Zhao Yun realize that he had gone astray when he led the people back.

But whether it was Nancheng or Dongcheng, Xiapi City was in front of them.

"The south gate and the east gate are both Xiapi, aren't they?"

Dian Wei buzzed at the side, and Zhao Yun nodded.

Since it's Xiapi City, that's right. The moonlight appears at this time.

Zhao Yun rode forward and approached Xiapi City alone.

"Let the people in the city know that I am the subordinate of Taiwei Xi, Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong!"

"This time our army has a great victory in the night attack. We have now led the leader Ji Ling and captured eight thousand soldiers. They are at the gate of the city. Please give the guard general the order to open the door as soon as possible!"

Zhao Yun spoke towards the city.

After Huang Zhong heard Zhao Yun's voice, he immediately understood.

This guy, didn't he agree to go through the east gate? Why did he walk to the south gate so smoothly?

It made him wait for a while.

Before Huang Zhong could speak, Xia Houyuan and Chen Deng, who also heard the voice beside him, widened their eyes at the same time.

The army under the city turned out to be under Xi Yu's command.

What did that man say just now? During their night attack, they actually killed Ji Ling and captured eight thousand soldiers.

This thing sounds so unbelievable!

Xia Houyuan couldn't believe it, while Chen Deng beside him looked down at the city under the moonlight.

At this moment, everywhere under Xiapi City was densely packed with human figures.

Under the city wall, a white-robed general was holding a silver gun and looking up at the city wall.

Could it be true?

These people did not look like they were attacking the city.

Chen Deng glanced at Xia Houyuan subconsciously, but Xia Houyuan couldn't help but shake his head.

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Even if Xi Yu's men successfully carried out a night attack, killing an enemy at night was so simple.

What's more, they captured 8,000 soldiers in one battle.

Do you really think that Ji Ling is a fool?

If Ji Ling was really a fool, why did he lead his army to a complete defeat during the night attack the day before!

Xia Houyuan didn't want to believe it, and even couldn't believe it.

When he shook his head, his eyes did not look towards the city at all.

At this moment, Huang Zhong, who had just come over, had already seen Zhao Yun's attire clearly below the city.

Just by looking at his figure and hearing Zhao Yun's voice, Huang Zhong already believed that the man in the city was Zhao Yun.

He leaned outside the battlements.

"This is Zilong below. Didn't you agree with me that you would go to the east gate when you returned to the army? Why are you running to the south gate now!"

Huang Zhong opened his mouth with a teasing tone.

After hearing Huang Zhong's voice, Zhao Yun, who was under the city, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He thought something happened in the city just now, but now he felt a lot more relieved when he heard Huang Zhong's voice.

"Brother Han Sheng, when we just returned to the army, the moonlight was dim and the clouds looked in the wrong direction for a while!"
