It is said that when Zhang Ren withdrew his troops from Xu Shu Mingjin, he was very jealous of Xu Shu's possible conspiracy.

The other party is a rare wise man in the world, and when Zhang Ren and Yan Yan had an advantage before, they could beat the army led by Zhang Yan and Yan Yan back to their original form, could it be that Xu Shu had an absolute advantage this time, and there would be no way to deal with them?

Zhang Ren didn't believe that Xu Shu would have no choice, but he thought a lot, from the city defense of Hanping City, the deployment of troops on his side, the preparation of materials, and the location of the location, he really couldn't think of any way for Xu Shu to quickly take Hanping City.

When Zhang Ren was meditating hard and couldn't sleep, Yan Yan came to Zhang Ren's big tent with a food box.

"Yi Ling, you haven't come in today, come and eat something." Yan Yan said.

Zhang Ren was really a little hungry when Yan Yan said this, and expressed his gratitude to Yan Yan for his kindness.

The things Yan Yan brought were really good, there were vegetables, meat, and bread, in this case, it was definitely the best food.

Zhang Ren solved the food in a few bites, it seemed that he was really hungry. As a person in the army, Zhang Ren doesn't pay much attention to food, as long as he can eat enough.

Yan Yan watched Zhang Ren finish eating, and the smile on his face appeared. In the entire Yizhou, the one who can share Yan Yan's interests is Zhang Ren.

"Yi Ling, the old man saw that you were full of sadness after Xu Shu retired from the army, I don't know why?" Yan Yan got down to business.

Zhang Ren said frankly: "In today's battle, Xu Shu could have attacked in a big way, although the casualties would have been greater. But it is impossible not to fail to take Hanping City. One blow of strength, then decline, three and exhaustion. With Xu Shu's ability, it is impossible not to see such a point. That's what Xu Shu did! Brother Heber, if there is no conspiracy here, it is really unreasonable! ”

Yan Yan's face changed sharply when he heard this, among Liu Beijun, Xu Shu's threat was much greater than that of others. As Zhang Ren said, Xu Shu is talented, and he is so powerful in arranging troops, he will definitely not command indiscriminately.

"So did Yi Ling guess Xu Shu's plan?" Yan Yan asked.

This is the most crucial thing!

"I meditated, but I didn't come up with a reason!" However, Zhang Ren disappointed Yan Yan.

"Yi Ling, you don't have to worry. Jingzhou reinforcements are coming, and even if Xu Shu has any more conspiracy, there is nothing to be done! Yan Yan comforted Zhang Rendao.

Zhang Ren nodded, and said at the same time: "Brother, you and I may have to take turns to rest today." Xu Shu won't let us sleep well. ”

"If we were waiting, we would do the same! The matter of the night patrol will be done by the old man first, and you will work hard in the second half of the night. Yan Yan didn't feel much of a problem.

Isn't it a night attack? Let Xu Shu let the horse come, the fire oil he prepared Yan Yan is worried that there is no place to use it!

Zhang Ren still looked sad.

"Yi Ling, what else do you have to worry about?" Yan Yan asked.

"It's nothing, it's just a faint sense of foreboding!" Zhang Ren spoke his mind.

When Yan Yan was about to comfort Zhang Yiban, a high-pitched shout of killing sounded outside the city wall.

Needless to say, Yan Yan and Zhang Ren were able to know that it was Liu Beijun's night attack.

"Xu Shu, that kid really can't be idle! The old man is going to meet those Liu Bei's minions now! Yi Ling, you rest for the time being! After saying this, Yan Yan walked out of the camp tent directly and headed towards the city wall.

Only Zhang Ren was thinking silently in the military tent.

It was Zhuo Yu who launched the night attack, and Xu Shu replenished his troops, and now he is directing his troops to continuously throw feather arrows into Hanping City.

Zhuo Yu had already agreed with Wu Lan and the others, and they took turns to harass Hanping City. The offensive was fake, and not letting Hanping's defenders rest was the real purpose. Even if the defenders saw through their intentions, it didn't matter, given one more guts, they wouldn't dare to go out of the city to fight back.

This kind of work that is safe and able to make military achievements, Zhuo Zhen and Wu Lan are very happy! This means that Xu Shu trusts them very much and gives them such an easy job.

The defenders of Hanping City, under the leadership of Yan Yan, did not fight back, but only kept an eye on the situation outside the city.

The counterattack was ineffective, and Liu Beijun threw a stone's throw at the defenders from a stone's throw from Hanping City. The defenders could only vaguely see some figures, and the rest were unknown. If you can't even see people clearly, what kind of counterattack are you talking about? It is even more impossible for the defenders to fight out of the city, who knows if there is an ambush outside.

Zhuo Fake withdrew after almost an hour of trouble.

The defenders thought that Liu Beijun's harassment could come to an end, and their vigilance was a little lax.

The defenders, hoping for a break, heard shouts of killing again. That's right, Liu Beijun and Zhuo Fake led by Wu Lan also harassed Hanping City.

The same number of people, the same routine, made the defenders speechless. They all thought about ignoring Liu Beijun outside, and there was not much actual harm to them anyway.

This situation is what Yan Yan is most worried about. The main purpose of the night attack was to take advantage of the slackness caused by the fatigue of the defenders and seize the fighters to realize their own strategy. Now Hanping City Yin Yin has such signs. Yan Yan constantly encouraged and urged the soldiers to cheer up.

After another hour, the night raiding force led by Wu Lan also stopped harassing.

The defenders of Hanping City were in good spirits to prevent a possible night attack from coming. Only half an hour later, there was no movement outside the city. Slowly, the defenders of Hanping City began to get tired.

Yan Yan is a veteran, he rested the soldiers in batches, so as not to come down overnight, the soldiers were tired, and it would be bad for Xu Shu to take advantage of it the next day.

At this time, Wu Lan and Zhuo Yu both returned to Xu Shu's side, Xu Shu had quietly mobilized most of the troops and horses, and he was going to take advantage of the slackness of the defenders of Hanping City to launch a fierce attack on the first two night attacks.

Xu Shu was sure that Zhang Ren and Yan Yan would definitely let the soldiers rest in batches, and in this case, the existing defense force of Hanping City would be greatly weaker.

Liu Beijun quietly approached Hanping City, taking advantage of the cover of the night, the slackness of the defenders of Hanping City, since no one found out.

At this time in Hanping City, Zhang Ren, who had rested for a while, came over to hand over to Yan Yan. In fact, Zhang Ren didn't rest much.

"Brother Heber, I am glad to have suffered! I'll take over the rest. Zhang Ren arched his hand and said.

"Yi Ling, pay more attention, the old man feels that Xu Shu won't just attack at night like this." Yan Yan admonished.

There is no need for Yan Yan to say more, Zhang Ren will be careful. Zhang Ren habitually glanced outside the city. His eyesight was excellent, and he suddenly noticed a large number of figures slowly approaching Hanping City.

"Not good! Enemy attack! Cheer up Ben! Zhang Ren shouted.

The voice was loud and frightened all the defenders. They quickly picked up their weapons and returned to their defensive positions in disarray.

Even if it was discovered, Xu Shu would not stop this action, shouting: "Attack!" ”

Liu Beijun, led by Xu Shu, shouted and shouted murder and rushed towards Hanping City.

"Pour the oil for Ben!" Yan Yan didn't go back to rest because he was worried about the city defense.

The night was pitch black, and if you wanted to see the enemy attack under the city, you had to use fire oil to light the light. At the same time ignite the oil of ignition. It can also have the effect of blocking the enemy army from approaching the city wall, even if it falls on the moat, the fire will still burn.

It's just that Xu Shu doesn't let his soldiers make senseless sacrifices at all. Most of the soldiers brought by Xu Shu this time were archers, but the equipment of the archers was rockets.

Tonight it was cloudy, there wasn't much starlight, and there wasn't much wind. This kind of weather is perfect for attacking with rockets.

Xu Shu had calculated before, and expected that the weather would be like this tonight, so the first two attacks were harassment, and no rockets were used, which made Yan Yan negligent.

At this time, Xu Shu arranged so many archers and set up a lit rocket, which made Zhang Ren and Yan Yan frightened.

"Fire Attack?!" Zhang Ren and Yan Yan were stunned, they were smart and confused for a while.

"Put!" Xu Shu sneered and gave the order.

For a while, in the darkness, countless points of light were thrown towards Hanping City.

The rocket was fired into the city of Hanpyeong, causing small fires everywhere. The defenders hurriedly extinguished the fires.

And a rocket happened to fly towards the place where the fire oil was stored. A spark can start a prairie fire! In an instant, a fire broke out in the place where the oil was stored! The defenders, who could not dodge, were contaminated by the flames, and screamed and slapped the flames on their bodies, or fell to the ground and rolled to no avail!

"Some of the soldiers put out the fire! The rest of the people perform their duties, and they must not let the Xu Shu thief army approach! Archers, what are you doing for food?! Give Ben a counterattack! Zhang Ren is a general, he came out of the shock and quickly issued an order to respond.

Yan Yan used his prestige in the army to appease the army.

With the presence of Zhang Ren and Yan Yan, the defenders had the backbone even if they were chaotic, and they slowly regained their composure and began to counterattack and extinguish the fire step by step.

However, Xu Shu saw that the fire was being extinguished in an orderly manner outside Hanping City, and nodded lightly and sighed: "There is no chaos in the face of danger, there is a degree of relaxation, and the talent of the general!" It's a pity! ”

Zhuo Zhen and Wu Lan's sigh for Xu Shu is clear, Xu Shu has a heart of love for talent, but this Zhang Ren and Yan Yan will not surrender, let alone serve Liu Bei.

"That's pretty much enough! Stop attacking! Fall back! Xu Shu ordered.

fought well, and suddenly retreated again, which made Zhuo Zhen and Wu Lan puzzled. It's just that Xu Shu is the biggest now, and Zhuo Zhen and Wu Lan can only do it.

The archers gave up and continued to shoot, and the infantry raised their shields and slowly retreated, so as not to cause casualties in the defenders' counterattack. In this way, Liu Beijun once again gave up the night attack, leaving only the defenders of Hanping City who were fighting the flames.

Yan Yan and Zhang Ren saw that Liu Beijun did not continue to attack, and they both felt a little painful. If Xu Shu came like this every time, then they wouldn't have to rest at all, and they would have to guard against Xu Shu's night attack all night. The problem is serious, but I can't hurt a single soldier of the other party, and I am half tired to death.

However, Zhang Ren and Yan Yan had to fight to the death to deal with it.

Before Xu Shu and Zhuo Zhen and their army returned to the camp, Lei Tong and Yang Hong came over hand in hand with soldiers and horses.

This time the night attack, Xu Shu didn't call them at all. Xu Shu was very disappointed in these two people, and he was worried that he would not be able to complete the task for them, and would even drag down his colleagues.

The difference is that Lei Tong and Yang Hong don't think so. They all thought that Xu Shu was suppressing the two of them. If there is no military merit this time, Lei Tong and Yang Hong will not be good. Lei Tong and Yang Hong felt that they still had to take the initiative, Xu Shu didn't call them, and they didn't want to stay in the camp all the time. Both of them wanted to go to the same place.

"See the Strategist!" Yang Hong and Lei Tong saluted Xu Shu.

Xu Shu was not surprised by the appearance of the two, and said: "The two generals are not sitting in the camp, why are they leading the soldiers and horses?" ”

Zhuo Zhen and Wu Lan looked at Lei Tong and Yang Hong playfully, and the thoughts in their hearts were self-evident. Others are playing hot, but you are making a cold bench, if you can sit still, it would be strange.

Lei Tong said with great righteousness: "The military division fought bloodily with the two generals and the soldiers, how could the last general wait alone?" ”

"Comrades are fighting, but we are watching from the wall. The soldiers are surging, and the last general is afraid that the army will be disheartened! Yang Hong also found a reason.

Xu Shu recognized the words of the two on the surface, but in fact, he was happy. From the siege of the city during the day, it can be seen that the two of them are desperate for their lives, and difficult tasks are not suitable for them.

There is one task that is a little difficult, and Xu Shu is really worried that the two of them will mess up.

It's just that people are new to support and don't give tasks, which is really bad for the military. Xu Shu decided to take a gamble and deliberately snubbed the two, which made Lei Tong and Yang Hong have a sense of crisis, and they would take the initiative to beg Xu Shu, and they would also have the mentality of desperately completing the task and making meritorious contributions.

All this is Xu Shu's plan.

Xu Shu touched his beard and said, "Two worthy of brave generals!" This army division has a difficult task, I wonder if the two generals are willing to go? ”

It's better to do any task than to do it in the barracks stupidly now.

"I would like to be sent by the military advisor!" Lei Tong and Yang Hong said in unison.

These two people were eager to make meritorious contributions, and Xu Shu was relieved, so he told the two of them about his arrangements. In fact, the task is very simple, that is, to ambush the Jingzhou army led by Pang De in the established place, block Pang De for Xu Shu's side, and let Xu Shu have more time to take Hanping City.

Lei Tong and Yang Hong agreed without too much hesitation, it is easier to ambush others than to attack the city, and they will run away if they can't beat it.

Xu Shu gave each of them a military order, and advised: "This army division will give you two people, one person has 5,000 soldiers and horses, adding up to 10,000 soldiers and horses, be sure to block Pang De." Otherwise, I'll see you on the head! ”

This is not a joke, if Yang Hong and Lei Tong can't stop Pang De and retreat, or for some reason to retreat, causing Pang De to come to Hanping City, Xu Shu will definitely kill them.

Lei Tong and Yang Hong'er mentioned their lives, but what they thought in their hearts, Xu Shu couldn't see it.

Liu Beijun divided 10,000 soldiers and horses, and let Lei Tong and Yang Hong lead them to ambush Pang De.

I just don't know if it will really block Pang De as Xu Shu wishes?
