Early the next morning, Zhuge Liang led the army to set off, passed through Fengming Valley, and went straight to the capital of the country! Even if Zhuge Liang didn't sleep much, even if he felt very tired, he still had to do this, he still had to march quickly, and he was caught off guard by the country!

And in the capital of the country, Hong Qi and Xiao Feng sat together.

"Hong Qi, did you say that the soldiers and horses of the Huaxia Empire will be able to go to Fengming Valley today?" Xiao Feng asked a little anxiously.

"Exactly!" Hong Qi seemed to be confident.

"Okay, then let's wait and see how many people this Huaxia Empire will lose today!" Xiao Feng said with some spirit.

Hong Qi smiled slightly, didn't say anything, and was secretly proud in his heart, because of him, the Liaodong army was about to suffer losses again!

……

A morning passed quietly, and Zhuge Liang led the army to a place less than twenty miles north of Xinxiang City.

"The army will rest in place first, and we will fight at night!" Zhuge Liang ordered.

"Yes!" The generals replied softly.

"Weiyou, you're all tired, go back and rest!" Zhuge Liang said.

Zhang Xiu and a few others have the same time as Zhuge Liang to rest, Zhuge Liang now feels very tired, although Zhang Xiu and others are military generals, but they are not much better.

After listening to Zhuge Liang's instructions, Zhang Xiu and the others also nodded, they were indeed a little tired!

"Master Deng, the manpower of the Jinyi Guard still has to be arranged, and it is strictly prevented from having the other party's scouts detect us here!" Zhuge Liang commanded again.

"Don't worry, sir, it's all right!" Deng Zhan patted his chest and reassured.

"Hmm!" Zhuge Liang nodded, "You all go down and rest, get up and go to the siege!" The artillery unit set off at six o'clock to assemble the equipment! ”

"Yes!" When the generals heard the order, they all agreed.

After the generals left, Zhuge Liang also lay down, and fell asleep after a wave of sleepiness.

An afternoon passed, and the time came for the evening.

Hong Qi and Xiao Feng were very puzzled, why didn't there be any news? Whether you win or lose, you have to have a letter, right? But after waiting for a day, none of them waited for the scouts.

"What's going on?" Xiao Feng couldn't help but wonder very much, logically speaking, it shouldn't be!

"I don't know, maybe the Chinese Empire's march hasn't reached Fengming Valley yet, right?" Hong Qi made a guess, and in his opinion, there was only such a situation! Even if it is discovered that there is an ambush in Fengming Valley, what can it be? If you want to attack Xinxiang City, then you must pass through Fengming Valley, it is not an exaggeration to say that this Fengming Valley is a moat!

Therefore, Hong Qi has the confidence to be able to make the Chinese Empire lose some soldiers and horses! However, he underestimated the ability of the Jinyi Guard of the Chinese Empire, and also underestimated the combat effectiveness of the elite soldiers of the Chinese Empire!

So much so that now, Hong Qi is still dreaming of being able to hit the Chinese Empire hard!

"Forget it, I'll send someone to investigate, it's not too early, let's rest! Maybe we'll know tomorrow! Xiao Feng said.

"Hmmm! So much better! Hong Qi nodded.

The two of them rested, and the soldiers in the city also rested, they did not have the habit of vigil, even now facing the attack of the Huaxia Empire, they did not think about vigil at all, after all, there is a moat in front of Fengming Valley, what kind of defense do they need to make?

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and the soldiers in Xinxiang City were gradually falling asleep, and it seemed that the earth-shattering snoring sound from outside the city could be heard from outside the city. There was only this sparkling fire on the top of the city, and as for the soldiers guarding it, they didn't know where they were hiding and falling asleep!

Just in time for the beginning of the month, there was basically no light on the crescent moon in the sky, and there were dense dark clouds in the sky, so it was pitch black in private, and it was impossible to see the distance at all.

At this time, a group of soldiers quietly sneaked to a position less than five hundred steps away from Xinxiang City, and immediately began to move quickly, setting up one catapult after another, ready to go! It was the artillery units of the Chinese Empire!

Soon, Zhuge Liang led the army to the rear of the artillery.

Zhuge Liang looked at the situation in the city, and the guards seemed to be more lax than he thought, so Zhuge Liang's eyes rolled, as if he had thought of something.

"Can we use explosives to blow open the gates of this new town?" Zhuge Liang asked.

"Yes!" The captain of the artillery unit nodded.

"Then we'll blow up the city gates!" Zhuge Liang nodded and said, "If you bomb, it seems that it will wake up the guards in the city, and it is still difficult to break the city!" ”

"Yes!" The captain hugged his fist directly towards Zhuge Liang, and then led the artillery soldiers to rush towards Xinxiang City with explosives bags.

"Shanjun, Weiyou, Wen Bin, you organize soldiers to help the artillery unit and transport enough explosives over as soon as possible!" Zhuge Liang ordered.

"Yes!" The third general nodded when he heard this, and organized the soldiers to help together.

"Fengxian, I know that you are holding your breath in your heart, so the task of attacking after the city is broken this time is handed over to you, and you must arrest the king of the plagiarized country and the person who gave him advice!" Zhuge Liang said.

"Yes!" Lu Bu nodded heavily, indeed as Zhuge Liang said, he held his breath in his heart, he must catch the king of the plagiarized country, and the scribe who has been targeting him!

"Well, let's prepare, it's a quick thing to blow up the city gates." Zhuge Liang nodded.

"Yes!"

As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers, and soon, a sufficient amount of explosives was carried to the city gates, and of course, the soldiers carried them very carefully, and basically did not make a sound, and the sleeping soldiers in the city did not notice it.

After everything was arranged, the artillery captain scattered the gunpowder on the ground again, and it stretched straight to the place where the army was!

"Let's light the fire!" Zhuge Liang said directly, if the wind blows the so-called lead away for a while, then it needs to be rearranged, and then the gain outweighs the loss!

"Yes!" The captain nodded, took out the fire breaker, and ignited the black gunpowder powder on the ground.

......The gunpowder burned very fast, and soon extended to the pile of explosives at the city gate.

"Bump!"

With a loud bang, the fire soared into the sky, and I saw that the city gate exploded directly, and the firelight instantly illuminated the entire city gate!

"Fengxian, the rest is up to you!" Zhuge Liang said with a smile.

"Yes!" Lu Bu nodded, and then shouted loudly, "Wolf cavalry, follow me into the city to kill the enemy!" ”

Immediately, Lu Bu took the lead and went straight to Xinxiang City, and behind him, 20,000 wolf cavalry also rushed towards Xinxiang City with Lu Bu's pace.
