Whether it is difficult or not, it is Liao Li's business.

If he wants to defend Hanping City, he must defend it to the end, and if he is slack, Gao Shun outside the city will not be polite to Liao Li.

The camp of Liu Jun in Jingzhou three miles outside the city. Gao Shun, Jiang Wan, Kou Feng and others are gathering in the big tent of the Chinese army.

Kou Feng felt that it was a waste of fighters to retreat at the end of the siege just now, so he came out and said: "General, the last general thought that it was a pity that Mingjin withdrew his troops just now. ”

"Ben will understand what you mean! But Ben will feel that it is not a pity! Gao Shun had a dead face, and he didn't change at all.

Kou Feng couldn't say a word when he was crowned, and the meaning of Gao Shun's words made him very uncomfortable.

Jiang Wan came out and explained: "General Kou, the reason why General Gao is like this is to create the illusion for Liu Bei that our army is storming Hanping City. thus indirectly helping the two generals Zhang Ren and Yan Yan to attract troops. ”

Gao Shun said directly: "As long as Zhang Ren and Yan Yan attack Ba County and Badong County, with their prestige in Yizhou, the land of the two counties will not be under Liu Bei!" ”

Only then did Kou Feng understand Gao Shun and Jiang Wan's intentions. The army concentrated its forces to attack Hanping City, and concentrated the forces of Liu Bei's army in Yizhou here. Then Zhang Ren and Yan Yan's side will be much easier. It seems that this retreat is because Gao Shun wants to preserve more strength.

"Thank you General Gao and Master Jiang for your guidance, and you have benefited a lot!" Kou Feng is a good man who knows his mistakes and can change them.

Gao Shun admires Kou Feng very much, Kou Feng is young, and he is not bad at all in terms of bravery, the only thing that is a little lacking is his perception of the overall situation and strategy. If Kou Feng can grow up, he will definitely be a pillar of the imperial court in the future.

There are not too many talents in the Shenwu Imperial Court, and Liu Yu will also be greatly reused.

Gao Shun hopes that Kou Feng can grow up as soon as possible, and he is also willing to cultivate Kou Feng for the imperial court.

Such a situation is in the plan of Gao Shun and Jiang Wan, and it is going very smoothly.

"Gongyan, what should our army do next?" Gao Shun asked Jiang Wan.

Jiang Wan arched his hand slightly and said, "General, we should use the golden cicada to get out of the shell." ”

"Good!" A glimmer of light flashed in Gao Shun's eyes.

But Kou Feng couldn't hear a reason at all, he didn't know what the plan was between Jiang Wan and Gao Shun.

"General Kou, tonight, I bother you to lead 10,000 troops to attack Hanping City under the banner of General Gao." Jiang Wanshu said. "You go to rest first, recuperate enough energy, and let Liao Li know how good we are tonight."

Kou Feng knew that this must be a link in Jiang Wan's strategy, and immediately responded: "The last general will obey the order." ”

Kou Feng arched his hand and slowly retreated, he has a task tonight, now just go and rest according to Jiang Wan's order.

After Kou Feng left, Gao Shun asked, "Gongyan, what do you think we have a chance of winning this time?" ”

Jiang Wanwan said: "General, I don't dare to guarantee a big chance of winning, but I must gain something!" ”

Gao Shun pondered for a while, and then said very firmly: "Your Majesty, if we can't get any results, how can we be worthy of Your Majesty's imperial grace." Just do what you planned. If there is any accident, Ben will bear it! ”

Jiang Wan understood that Gao Shun had to shoulder all the responsibilities, which made him admire Gao Shun very much, and praised: "The general is wise!"

Under the command of Gao Shun, Liu Jun in Jingzhou began to bury pots and cook to recuperate.

Liao Li had been worried about the possible attack of Liu Jun in Jingzhou, and he didn't dare to relax for a moment. Waiting left and right, that is, did not wait for Liu Jun's attack. Finally, seeing the countless cooking smoke slowly rising from Liu Jun's camp in Jingzhou, Liao Li knew that Gao Shun would not attack for a while.

"The whole army rests!" Liao Li, who had tensed his nerves, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Beijun of Yizhou in Hanping City relaxed with Liao Li's order, and at the end of the day, they were really tired.

As the sun sets, night falls.

Liao Li stood on the city wall and looked directly at the camp of Liu Jun in Jingzhou in the distance. Others could rest, but Liao Li didn't dare. It has been several hours since Mingjin withdrew his troops before. According to the general situation, even if Liu Jun in Jingzhou wants to recover his strength, he is almost rested by this time.

Surprisingly, Liu Jun in Jingzhou didn't make any moves at all. As if there will be no more attacks today.

Liao Li faintly felt that something was wrong, and was touching his beard at this time, constantly pondering.

"My lord, you better take a rest and let the last man keep an eye on the enemy." Ma Sheng, the deputy general of Hanping City, cared for Liao Li.

Liao Li came back to his senses, nodded slightly, and said, "If the enemy army has any movement, come and report it immediately." ”

Ma Sheng certainly complied. Now the biggest and most capable official in Hanping City is Liao Li, and the whole army does not dare to let Liao Li be tired.

Liao Li knows his importance, he can take a good rest at this time, he naturally won't miss it.

The battle between the Liu army of Jingzhou and the defenders of Hanping City was temporarily stopped, as if today's battle had not happened at all, and there was a great peace between heaven and earth.

In the middle of the night, Kou Feng quietly came out of the camp with 10,000 soldiers and horses under the banner of Gao Shun.

Before coming out, Gao Shun had already told Kou Feng that Liao Li's attention must be all on Kou Feng's body. As long as Gao Shun has the result, the process is not important, and it is up to Kou Feng to play freely.

It was the first time for Kou Feng to lead so many soldiers and horses, and it was the first time he led the troops alone, so he must have to perform well.

The camp of Liu Jun in Jingzhou was only three miles away from Hanping City, and the defenders of Hanping City were not all fools, and soon someone noticed that something was wrong and shouted: "There is a situation!" ”

Ma Sheng, the deputy general of Hanping City, who stayed behind to monitor Liu Jun in Jingzhou, instantly became nervous, and in the night, he saw a large number of figures shaking.

"Such a treacherous enemy army, who does not move all day, just waits for the attack to come late at night. Fortunately, Ben will be wise and martial, and he has not fallen for their big fool! Archers ready! Fire oil ready! Ma Sheng quickly commanded.

From the movement of the figure on the city wall, Kou Feng knew that his heart was exposed, pulled out his weapon, and said loudly: "Kill!" ”

10,000 people attacked at the same time, and the shouts of killing were deafening. The voice woke up Liao Li, who had fallen into a deep sleep.

As soon as he heard the sound of shouting and killing, Liao Li quickly came out of the resting place, and he didn't even tidy up his clothes.

"What's going on?" Liao Li came to Ma Sheng's side in disheveled clothes, and saw that he was galloping. Looking at the crowds surging under the city wall, and there was a big "high" banner, Liao Li already knew what was going on.

"What a Gao Shun, he actually engaged in a night attack!" Liao Li said hatefully.

Ma Sheng arched his hand and said to Liao Li: "My lord, looking at the strength of the enemy's attack, it seems that it is pouring out." ”

Under the darkness of the night, even Liao Li couldn't see how many people there were. However, from the shouting and killing and the movement of the figure, Liao Li recognized Ma Sheng's opinion.

"Humph! Gao Shun was full of calculations, but he didn't know that our army had already prepared! Come on, pour the oil down and set the ground on fire! Prevent the enemy from getting ahead! Liao Li reacted quickly.

In a short time, a bright fire burned under the city walls.

Keeping Gao Shun's instructions in mind, Kou Feng ordered the archers to strike at a distance and not to start a battle until the fire was extinguished.

When Kou Feng led an army of 10,000 to attack Hanping City under the banner of Gao Shun, Gao Shun and Jiang Wan quietly left from another exit of the camp with the remaining troops.

Gao Shun, who had walked a distance, saw the light of the fire burning in Hanping City, and a rare smile appeared on the dead man's face.

Jiang Wan finally understood why Gao Shun usually kept a straight face. It turned out that when Gao Shun laughed, his face was so ugly. Gao Shun still looks better when he is not smiling.

"The whole army is moving faster!" Gao Shun's smile quickly disappeared, and he returned to his previous dead face.

Where did Gao Shun lead 10,000 soldiers and horses?

Fengdu City, an ancient city with a long history in Yizhou. Some people say that Fengdu is a ghost town, a concentration of all ghosts in the world. I don't know when this legend began.

The people around seemed to believe in this legend, and after the evening, they stayed at home.

Due to the dangerous terrain and the border with Fuling County, Fengdu City is not conspicuous and rarely populated. However, as the Jingzhou Liu army led by Gao Shun gained a firm foothold in Fuling County, Fengdu City became one of the cities that Liu Bei focused on. Liu Bei deployed almost 3,000 troops in Fengdu City, and sent his newly recruited henchman Chen Xiu to guard Fengdu. With the dangerous terrain of Fengdu City, there are still 3,000 troops, which is enough to block the attack of Jingzhou Liu's army.

The guard Chen Xiu was also very confident, but there was an accident.

Liu Jun sent Zhang Ren and 8,000 soldiers and horses to Fengdu City. Zhang Ren's prestige, Chen Xiu had heard of it when he was a soldier, and he was very worried about whether he could repel Zhang Ren.

Yes, at the beginning, Chen Xiu was thinking about repelling Zhang Ren. I don't know where his faith comes from.

Faith is a good thing, but when faith is broken, the contrast is not something that ordinary people can bear. Zhang Ren's army advanced all the way, and there were constantly old troops and young men to take refuge. Zhang Ren has a great reputation in Yizhou, and he is very good to the military and civilians, and these people are going for such a point. In addition, the situation on Yan Yan's side is similar to Zhang Ren's.

Zhang Ren's army continued to increase, eventually reaching a huge number of 10,000. Chen Xiu was dumbfounded, more than 10,000 troops were almost equal to four times the strength of all the troops in Fengdu City. At the same time, the soldiers of Fengdu City heard that the former General Zhang Ren led tens of thousands of troops to attack Fengdu, and they lost their courage one by one, and they were terrified. With false rumors, Zhang Ren's strength has been exaggerated many times.

The army's morale was discouraged, and Chen Xiu immediately sent Wei Yan a letter asking for help, and euphemistically expressed in the letter whether he could give up Fengdu City as a last resort. If you can't beat it, it's just a big deal to retreat. It's a pity that Wei Yan didn't understand Chen Xiu's good intentions, even if he saw it, Wei Yan wouldn't let Chen Xiu give up Fengdu City. Wei Yan's order was to let Chen Xiu defend to the death, and reinforcements would arrive soon.

After receiving such an order, Chen Xiu wanted to cry without tears. It seems that he can only hold on.

At the same time, the army led by Zhang Ren finally reached Fengdu City, and without waiting for Chen Xiu's reaction, Zhang Ren immediately launched an attack on the city.

Chen Xiu was struggling to support, relying on a solid defense, constantly repelling Liu's army, and at the same time Chen Xiu prayed to God for reinforcements to arrive soon, he estimated that he would hold on for a few more days at most.

"Damn!" Zhang Ren saw that the attack of the army was blocked again, and immediately said angrily: "Is it all waste? A small Fengdu, it hasn't been won for so long! ”

Zhang Ren didn't name and scold anyone, but he made all his subordinates blush.

You must know that the guard of Fengdu City is Chen Xiu, many of Zhang Ren's subordinates know Chen Xiu, Chen Xiu used to give Zhang Ren shoes was not enough, but now he can block Zhang Ren, Zhang Ren must feel ashamed.

"My lord, why don't we attack with fire and destroy Fengdu City!" A military general under Zhang Ren proposed a solution.

Zhang Ren scolded: "Bastard thing! Destroy the city of Fengdu?! Such bad ideas can be said! You're dying! ”

No wonder Zhang Ren is angry! Zhang Ren was very disgusted with Liu Bei, and he had feelings for the people in Yizhou. Fengdu City has stood tall for many years, if he is burned by a fire, he is ashamed of Yizhou, and he is ashamed of the people of Yizhou.

The military general who was scolded was ashamed, lowered his head and did not speak.

"It seems that the only thing to do is to attack the heart." Zhang Ren is not without brains, and the other party's situation can be seen to some extent.

Fengdu City does not have many troops, and relies on the dangerous geographical location as a defense. But Zhang Ren made a fatal mistake, he shouldn't have launched an attack so quickly. It is very difficult to break through Fengdu City from the outside. This is also the reason why Liu Bei dared to put only 3,000 soldiers and horses to defend here. The best way, and the most difficult way, is to have internal turmoil, so that Fengdu City can be easily taken.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ren knew what to do, strode forward, and said to Fengdu City: "Yizhou soldiers of Fengdu City!" I'm Zhang Ren! Former Yizhou general. We all grew up eating Yizhou rice, why do we want Yizhou people to fight Yizhou people? Liu Bei's dog thief usurped the inheritance of our lord. ”

Chen Xiu was shocked, what he was most worried about was that Zhang Ren came out to shout. Chen Xiu understands the tactics of attacking the heart. The others came out to shout, but Chen Xiu was dismissive. However, Zhang Ren is different. In Yizhou, Zhang Ren and Yan Yan have great prestige, especially in the army! At this time, a large part of the troops under Chen Xiu's command were the old troops of Yizhou, and they all admired Zhang Ren.

Before Zhang Ren could continue, Chen Xiu shouted: "Archer! Shoot me Zhang Ren! ”

However, not a single archer was willing to do it. The archers all looked at Chen Xiu, and it could be seen from their eyes that they were unwilling to make a move.

Chen Xiu's heart was cold, as the main general, the order didn't work!

"What are you doing?! Shoot me! Chen Xiu grabbed an archer and said viciously.

The archer was very embarrassed and said, "General, the little one doesn't dare." ”
