In the military camp in the city, Huang Zhong saw that Cao's army was retreating, so he immediately summoned his generals and asked about today's siege of the city.

After some inquiry, he learned that each gate had a general Cao to lead the siege, and Huang Zhong was slightly worried.

Seeing Huang Zhong's sad face, Huang Xu said: "Don't worry, the commander of the legion, the Cao army left at least 5,000 corpses in today's battle, and our army suffered less than 2,000 casualties. ”

Huang Zhong said: "Although this statement is reasonable, but the first battle consumed the lives of more than 10,000 people of the White Tiger Legion, and my heart is really painful. ”

Although the White Tiger Legion is a foreign race, Huang Zhong has been in charge for many years and has already had feelings.

Liao Hua said on the side: "If you sacrifice the White Tiger Legion, it will be worth it to fight for the lord elsewhere, so I think that the lord should be notified as soon as possible." ”

Li Huiyi had sent people to tell Huang Zhong many times that the main direction of Cao's army was Yingxian, so it was also a top priority to report the news of Cao's army's assembly and siege as soon as possible.

Huang Zhong nodded and said, "Okay, Brigade Commander Huang, you lie down hard, and the guards rush out." ”

"Yes, I didn't do it." Huang Xu stood up and saluted, then turned to leave.

At this time, Wei Yan stood up and said: "Commander, the Cao army has just arrived, and it will be put into the battlefield, at this time, it must be sleepy and lacking, it is better not to lead a battalion, and attack the Cao camp at the ugly time tonight to relieve the pressure of defending the city tomorrow." ”

Huang Zhong nodded and said, "This method is feasible, but I'm afraid that Cao Cao will be on guard, I'm afraid that there will be danger." ”

Wei Yan said: "Rest assured, the commander of the regiment, there are not many soldiers and horses in the first battalion, whether it is successful or not, it will be difficult for the Cao army to rest peacefully, and our purpose of harassment has been achieved." ”

Seeing Wei Yan's insistence, Huang Zhong said: "Okay, you pay attention to safety, if you feel wrong, you will immediately lead the army back." ”

Wei Yan said with joy on his face: "Don't worry, the corps commander doesn't understand." ”

"Tonight's city defense will be inspected by General Liao." Huang Zhong arranged the patrol, and waved everyone away. "After a hard fight, you have also worked hard, go down and rest early."

The atmosphere in the city was tense, and the Cao army camp outside the city was relatively stable, and there were not many soldiers and horses patrolling back and forth, and some camp tents and soldiers had already gone to sleep.

In the main camp commander's tent, Cao Cao was discussing the siege of the city tomorrow with several strategists under his command.

Cao Cao glanced at everyone and said: "Today's siege of the city, more than 5,000 casualties, Huang Zhong must believe that our army swears to take the city, so I want to implement the plan as soon as possible, I don't know if you have any objections?"

Xun You smiled and said, "Is the lord worried about the casualties, if so, don't worry." ”

Seeing Xun Youyan's heart, Cao Cao asked curiously: "Oh, Gongda has a second count, you might as well talk about it." ”

Xun You smiled and said: "I can't say the second meter, but someone will create an excuse for the lord to temporarily rest and siege the city." ”

"It is an indisputable fact that our army arrived in the dust, and before it had rested for a moment, it was thrown into the siege, and it was an indisputable fact that it was exhausted.

"And if Huang Zhong wants to hold the city steadily, then he will definitely delay our army's attack on the city, so it is expected that someone will come to intercept the camp tonight."

is just to make a show, of course Cao Cao doesn't want to lose too many soldiers and horses here, otherwise in the future, I am afraid that there will be insufficient troops and will not achieve the desired result.

But if it is really like Xun You said, Cao Cao is still willing to do some more, so as not to let Li Huiyi see the flaws.

Cao Cao thought for a moment and said: "Okay, if someone really sneaks up, you can stay for a few more days, but the elite troops can be mobilized." ”

Cao Cao glanced at Xu You and said: "Ziyuan is a new investment, and he has great talents, so it is better for you to cooperate with Xia Houyuan this time and secretly go to Ying County." ”

came, finally had the opportunity to make a name for himself, Xu You was overjoyed in his heart, stood up and arched his hand: "Don't worry, the lord will definitely assist General Xia Hou and implement the plan perfectly." ”

"Thank you for your hard work, this battle is won, I will ask Your Majesty for credit, as for when I will leave, I will be notified later." Cao Cao made a promise, and said to Mao Jie: "Xiaoxian, the matter of patrolling tonight will be handed over to you, and the people who robbed the camp must stay." ”

Mao Jie arched his hand and said: "Don't worry, as long as the enemy army comes, Jie will definitely leave him behind." ”

Seeing that the matter was almost explained, Cao Cao waved away everyone and prepared to rest early, after all, tonight may be a night of trouble.

As time slowly passed, the night became quieter and quieter.

As soon as the ugly time came, the east gate slowly opened, and Wei Yan led an elite group out of the city gate quietly.

There was no obstacle all the way, Wei Yan touched Cao Ying Dazhai, observed carefully for a while, and saw that there were few patrol soldiers in Cao Jun, and Wei Yan's heart rose with joy.

Unexpectedly, as Huang Xu said, there were very few Cao army patrol soldiers outside the city, and it seemed that they wanted to take a break and recover their strength as soon as possible to attack the city tomorrow.

This abnormality was discovered when Huang Xu escorted the messengers to rush out, but they all thought that Cao Jun wanted to recover his strength, so he didn't think much about it at all.

After all, Cao's army has the advantage, and its determination to take the city in one go has been vividly demonstrated in today's siege.

The Cao army had a large number of people, and for the sake of safety, Wei Yan still divided the army into two parts, in case someone could still be outside to answer the kill.

Leaving a battalion to respond outside, Wei Yan led the rest of the army to quietly touch Cao's Dazhai.

Touching dozens of meters of Dazhai, Wei Yan waited for a moment, and just after patrolling Cao Jun, he waved his hand to let people solve the guards at the door.

Seeing Wei Yan's gesture, the open road platoon quickly rushed to the gate of Dazhai.

"Rustling ......"

Hearing the sound of fast footsteps, the two sleepy Cao Jun in the Zhaimen opened their eyes violently, and just wanted to look, only to feel a cold light waving towards them.

"Enemy ......"

As soon as Cao Jun came to his mouth, he could no longer shout out as his neck was cut.

The open road platoon solved the guards at the door, quickly occupied the gate, and beckoned Wei Yan and the others behind him to enter.

Seeing that he easily occupied the gate of Dazhai, Wei Yan was even more excited in his heart, and immediately led his soldiers to rush into Dazhai.

Entering Dazhai, Wei Yan ordered: "Burn, the bigger the movement, the better, shout to Ben General!" ”

Wei Yan's voice fell, and the soldiers who had been preparing for a long time rushed to the camp tent, took out the small bottle of fire oil they carried, smashed it into the tent, and then lit a fire, and shouted.

"Kill! Don't let go of a Cao Jun! ”

"Burn Cao Jun!"

……

The sound of one after another sounded, but Cao Jun did not rush out of the burning tent.

Seeing this abnormal scene, Wei Yan was immediately startled in his heart, and hurriedly gathered the soldiers and wanted to withdraw from Dazhai. "That's not right! Withdraw, there is an ambush ......"

As soon as Wei Yan's order was given, he saw thousands of soldiers and horses suddenly appear outside the Cao army's big village, quickly blocking the gate of the village, and the leader of the Cao general was Cao Hong.

"Hahaha! You have been ambushed, and you should not surrender quickly, lest you be in a different place! ”

Cao Hong's roar fell, and countless Cao troops also rushed out of Dazhai and rushed towards the panicked Li army.

Seeing that he was being attacked by the enemy on his back, Wei Yan calmed down in his heart and ordered the soldiers to rush out desperately. "Charge out on your own, don't care about the enemy forces behind!"

Hearing the order, Li Jun reacted quickly, brandished his weapon and rushed towards the gate of the village.

As soon as the two armies collided, they fought fiercely together, and Li's army continued to advance by virtue of its equipment superiority.
