Previously, Luo Gan divided his troops into three routes, the goal was directly aimed at Luoyang, and Luo Gan personally led the troops to fight with Cao Cao in the middle, and the other two troops and horses attacked the pass, which also ignited the flames of war.

Wu Yanguang, the general of Anbei on the north road, led 20,000 troops from the north, and there were Tang Meng, Shan Shiqi, Wang Yin, Han Cunbao, Yuan Lang and other fierce generals to help, and soon passed through Chenliu County, invaded Henan Yi, and was invincible along the way.

In the end, in the important town of Xingyang, he was blocked by Cao General Zhang Kai and Zhu Jing led 20,000 troops, and the strength of the two sides was equal, and they failed to distinguish the winner after several battles. In particular, Cao Jun borrowed the geographical advantages of Xingyang, plus he was responsible for defending the city and blocking the Luo army. Therefore, even if Wu Yanguang and other generals are brave, it is difficult to make a breakthrough for a while.

At this time, Cao Cao sent Man Chong as a military advisor and supervisor to supervise military discipline and give advice. And Luo Gan sent Chen Gong to help, wanting to break through Xingyang, continue to march troops, and besiege Cao Cao's base camp.

……

On this day, the sun was already in the west, and the Cao army in Xingyang City was full of anger, especially the guard Zhu Jing, who pinched out the traces of the crescent halberd in his hand.

Just because the Luo army under the city scolded from noon to evening, up to Cao Cao, middle to Zhu Jing Zhangkai, down to ordinary soldiers, all of them were scolded by Luo Jun. Eighteen generations of ancestors, women of all generations, all greeted once, how could Cao Jun not be angry?

"The Manchu division, the last general was ordered by Cao Gong to retreat from the enemy. Now that this thief army is so arrogant, if our army does not fight again, I am afraid that the morale of the army will be damaged, how can we retreat from the enemy? If you can't retreat from the enemy, how can you replace Cao Gong? also asked the military advisor to give an order, let the last general lead the troops to kill, and have a good time. Zhu Jing gritted his teeth and asked the full favor on the side with a little resentment.

Although Zhang Kai and Zhu Jing were the main generals, Cao Cao was worried that these two generals would rebel, after all, they had surrendered from Yuan Shao, not their descendants. In addition, although these two generals were brave, they always suffered defeats from Yuan Shao, so they sent Man Chong to be a military advisor and a supervisor of the army, giving Man Chong the power to engage in it cheaply.

In other words, full favor is the actual military power, and Zhang Kai Hao Zhu Jing also knows his origin, so he takes full favor as the top.

Man Zhong glanced at Zhu Jing, then looked at the Luo army outside the city, waved his sleeves, and said coldly: "The general sent troops to fight with Cao Jun before, in addition to losing troops and losing generals, have you ever broken a thief?" Today, the thieves are powerful, and they can only outwit them, not be able to defeat them. No one is allowed to fight without my orders. ”

Zhu Jing opened his mouth and wanted to defend a few words, but when he saw Manzhong's harsh face, he swallowed his saliva, and finally tried to say: "The last general is incompetent and has failed to break the thief." But if our army does not go to war, how can we retreat from the enemy? Is it to be consumed with Luo Jun? When they run out of food and grass, they will automatically withdraw from the army? ”

Man Pet was silent for a moment, and his cold face had a hint of a smile: "Don't worry, I have my own plan to break the enemy, and I will wait for a day or two to break the thief army." I govern the army by decree, I march when I hear the drums, and collect the troops with gold, if I give the order to fight, who dares not to die, behead! Why worry about low morale? Let the Luo army be arrogant for two more days, and there will be a camp of General Zhang outside the city, forming a corner with our city. The Luo army did not dare to attack the city directly, but our army was depleting the enemy's morale. ”

"No, there is only one brute force to plan the general, and it depends on the wisdom of the military division to break the enemy." Zhu Jing saw that Manzhong's attitude was slightly better, and he didn't dare to say anything else, so he hugged his fists and agreed.

Zhu Jing remembered that when Man Chong first came, he held Cao Cao's sword, but he killed many pawns who violated military discipline. The blood-red blood flowed low, and the heads were as high as the flagpoles.

The ruthless methods and ruthless style made the Cao army, which was originally defeated by the Luo army, recover its combat strength again, and also made the prestige of Man Zhong in the army soar.

People are full of favors, but they are ruthless.

Without the order of full favor, naturally there will not be a single soldier to fight, and there is an open camp outside the city, leading some soldiers and horses to guard against the Luo army.

Luo army outside the city.

Wang Yin dragged a steel gun, wiped the sweat on his head, and scolded Xingyang City: "Guts rats, we dared to do one a few days ago, but in the past two days, we have suffered from the plague, and we dare not come out to fight if we are so insulted, it is really unlucky." Damn it, open the gate and fight me? What kind of hero is he in the turtle camp? Seed, I'm phew. ”

Despite Wang Yin's insults, Zhu Jing in the city and the soldiers and horses in the camp outside the city were only on defense and did not fight.

"Back to camp!" Wang Yin looked at the setting sun and said angrily.

"General Wuyan, Chen Junshi, and the last general were ordered to scold the war, but the Cao army just didn't come out. I don't know if I want to continue to call tomorrow? Wang Yin returned to the camp to report to Wu Yanguang and Chen Gongyu.

Wu Yanguang waved his hand to signal Wang Yin to sit down first, turned around and asked Chen Gongdao: "Military advisor, how do you think you should break the enemy now?" Our army marched in three ways, and if the other two roads were the first to attack Luoyang, the brothers would have no light on their faces. ”

Chen Gong put his hand on his knee and analyzed: "The previous thief will open and Zhu Jing has shown a trend of decline, and they can break the city after a few strong attacks. But it is a full favorite, so that the thief army is more cunning and difficult, so that Zhang Kai can camp outside the city, and the situation of the city is not easy to fight. Now if you want to attack the city, you need to break the camp first. ”

Han Cunbao, a deputy general, frowned and said: "Military division, the defense of the open is very strict, our army wants to attack the camp, and the soldiers and horses in the city will send troops to help, and the two sides will attack, but let our army lose troops and lose generals." ”

Chen Gong nodded, but said confidently: "I observed the celestial phenomena yesterday, and there will be a strong wind tonight." Our army can send a brave general to attack the camp at night and set it on fire. It would be better if the city sent troops to rescue each other, our army sent one route of soldiers and horses to stop the rescuers, and sent the third way of soldiers and horses to seize Xingyang City. ”

Chen Gong's plan, everyone thought about it, and there was no better way.

"Okay, it's up to the military advisor. The generals listened to the order and ordered Han Cunbao and Yuan Lang to lead 3,000 troops to burn down and open the camp at the beginning of tonight. Tang Meng and Shan Shiqi led 5,000 troops to block the rescue troops in Xingyang City. Wang Yin led 8,000 troops with me to seize Xingyang City after the enemy army left the city. The rest of the soldiers and horses were transferred to the army division to stay in the camp. Wu Yanguang was also a cool person, and seeing that no one opposed Chen Gong's plan, he directly ordered the distribution of troops and horses.

"No!"

"Command!"

"The general can rest assured, the last general will definitely open it and roast it into a suckling pig."

The generals were ordered to deploy their troops and horses and get ready.

……

The sun is still shining during the day, but tonight it is full of dark clouds, and it is difficult to see the five fingers when you stretch out your hand, I don't know if the heavens are really helping Luo Jun.

As soon as the ugly time came, the wind really began to blow, and the wind blew from the side of the camp to Xingyang City.

The night was dark and the wind was high, and suddenly half a mile away from the open camp, a large piece of fire appeared, which was the torch lit by Luo Jun.

"Charge me, rocket ready, kill!" Han Cunbao took the lead, brandishing Fang Tian's painting halberd, and took the lead in rushing to the front.

"Kill~"

"Arrow~"

The 3,000 soldiers and horses of the Luo army rushed to the camp, and Yuan Lang bent his bow and arrows to shoot a flaming arrow at the enemy camp, and a group of crossbowmen behind him followed with the arrows.

It was like a rain of fire falling on the open camp, and soon the tents and some grain and grass in the camp began to burn, and with the help of the strong wind, the fire spread rapidly.

"The enemy attacked, the enemy killed ~"

"Ah~"

"It's on fire, put out the fire~"

Knock knock~

The sound of fire, drums, and shouts of killing pierced the night sky.

Cao Junying's camp was on fire, and it was too late to put out the fire at this time, and there was chaos in the village.
