Chapter 921: Cao Liu's counterattack

The soldiers and horses of the pottery merchant have captured Nanzheng, and in his heart, Cao Cao and Liu Bei are guarding the Sword Pavilion, and they are desperately sorting out the city defense, for fear that they will kill the city head without knowing when they will be killed.

At this moment, the potter's mind was full of how to break through the strong defense of the Sword Pavilion and break through the throat of Sichuan and Shu.

The thirteen states in the world, those who have not been pacified, only Sichuan Shuer, now as long as they can take down the other party's barrier, the next road will be easy to go.

Everything seems to be working out.

It's just that the Cao Liu coalition army is stationed here, which is also a difficulty for everyone, the school government has been ready to investigate, and the enemy's pass has been fully prepared, and its degree of defense is not comparable to leisure.

I am afraid that it is not advisable to attack, but if you do not attack, use outwitting......

There is Cao Cao in the other party's pass, if he is determined to eat the scales and become the eighth king, even if the pottery merchant is a strategy, I am afraid that it will not be of much use.

Isn't there no solution to this matter?

With this worry, the potters have not slept well in the past few days, one is because the mood is not good, and the other is because the climate in Hanzhong is more humid, and the potters are used to living in the south of the Yangtze River.

The locals are fine, but the potters are really not used to it.

That night, the potter tossed and turned in his room and couldn't sleep.

Touching the still damp quilt on his body, the potter couldn't help but sigh, then rolled up from the bed, walked to the window, and looked at the starry sky in the distance.

The potter lives in a two-story building, which can be said to be a relatively tall building in Nanzheng City.

Although the sight is very good, but unfortunately, the sky is covered with black clouds, and there is a large area of black pitch, and you can't even see a star, which really makes people feel uninteresting.

"Ghost weather ......," the potter muttered, wanting to turn around and go to the bed again to continue forcing himself to fall asleep, but suddenly found that outside the city in the distance, there were dots of fire, and the fire became bigger and bigger, and after a while, it was even a patch.

The potter couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this.

His first reaction was...... Is this someone organizing a bonfire?

But soon, the idea was self-denied by him.

It's impossible, who would dare to set fire to the city for fun without their own consent? Aren't you afraid of shaving his big ears and pumping him?

But it was at this time that a trace of reason flashed through the potter's mind.

Aren't your own people setting fires for fun? Who could be setting the fire?

I'm afraid that there are only enemy troops!

"Smack!" The bezel of a heavy plate of wooden windows of the potter...... But the result was a pain in the palm of his hand.

"It's nothing...... "The potter muttered to himself, then quickly dressed and ran down the small building.

Outside the small building, Pei Qian saw that the potter was not sleeping, and ran down the residence in the middle of the night, and couldn't help but be curious.

He took two steps forward and arched his hand at the potter: "The prime minister doesn't sleep in the middle of the night, so hot, isn't it...... Looking for a ji? ”

The potter was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Pei Qian in a daze.

"I'm looking for your sister......"

Pei Qian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then sighed and said regretfully: "It's a pity that his subordinates don't have sisters, only three younger brothers, otherwise, his subordinates are quite willing to ......."

"What you think is quite beautiful, there is a fire in the south of the city, it is very likely that Cao Cao and Liu Bei's soldiers and horses are coming to attack at night, you hurry up and order all battalions and departments, and quickly form a formation to resist the enemy!"

When Pei Qian heard this, he hurriedly looked in the direction of the south of the city, but saw that there was really a fire over there, and he couldn't help but turn pale: "Cao Cao, aren't they sticking to the Sword Pavilion?" How did you get here? ”

The potter snorted lightly and said, "Now is not the time for self-examination, hurry up and do what I say." ”

"No!"

The soldiers and horses of the Cao army and the Sichuan army suddenly appeared, which surprised the Jinling army, and the Jinling army from top to bottom, from the highest-ranking commander Tao Shang to the school captain and soldiers below, did not expect that these Cao Liu coalition troops who should have been cowering in the pass and waiting to be beaten actually took the initiative to attack and ran outside the pass to attack Nanzheng to have a decisive battle with the potters.

There was no need to greet Pei Qian, the generals of the various departments got up one after another when they heard the fighting around Nanzheng, commanded the generals of each department, and led everyone out of the city to fight the enemy.

There are not many defenders in Nanzheng City, most of them are camps stationed outside the city, and the weather is hot and humid at this time, in order to make the Jinling army unable to organize an effective counterattack in time, the Cao Liu coalition army began to throw and throw in the big villages around the city, and ordered people to set fire, and the Jinling army in order to put out the fire, it is necessary to divide a part of the generals and troops, and temporarily organize a battle, it is bound to be unable to completely block the Cao Liu coalition army, giving them a lot of opportunities.

The generals of the Jinling Army are mainly defending and fighting fires at the moment, and as for these Cao-Liu coalition troops that suddenly appeared, they are cautious about them, but they do not attack forcibly...... To be honest, I can't tell the spirit of the head.

"Prime Minister, the generals of the Cao army and the Sichuan army, at present, they have already exchanged hands with the soldiers of all departments of our army, and now the generals led by Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Huang Zhong, Ji Ling, Zang Ba, etc., are fighting with the enemy, the enemy offensive is quite strong, and the Sichuan army is good at climbing, and now it is still climbing the city tower, and please withdraw from the city temporarily, and after the general kills the enemy, return safely to ......"

The potter shook his head and said, "No, my city, you let me run out a lot, how will I mix in the princes' circle in the future?" ”

Pei Qian hurriedly stomped his feet and said: "Our soldiers and horses are only short for a while, so they have no ability to resist, if they hold on more, they will inevitably turn defeat into victory, and then the prime minister will return to Nanzheng, and he will be calm and tight......"

Speaking of this, Pei Qian paused and said: "As for the matter of the princes' circle, if there are only a few people who can mix in your circle today, there are not many in total, and it doesn't seem to matter if it is passed on or not." ”

“……”

Thinking about it calmly, what Pei Qian said does make some sense.

It is impossible for their own soldiers and generals to lose to Cao Liu, they only occupy some good opportunities for the time being, and when the generals of the various departments come to their senses, they will definitely be able to defeat Cao Liu.

But if during this time period, let the Sichuan army pick up a bargain on himself, it will be more than worth the loss.

The potter took a deep breath, then looked around, and said: "There are still two captives in the city, and they can't be thrown away to the other party at will, you gather the Tiger Guards, go and take down the captives first, as for where to hide in a while, let's go back and talk about it." ”

Pei Qian didn't understand it at first, but then he reacted vigorously...... The prime minister is talking about Zhang Fei and Cao Zhang, who are imprisoned in the city!

At that moment, the potter took Pei Qian and a group of tiger guards to escort Zhang Fei first.
