Zhuge Liang said: "Although the Wei army attacked fiercely, it should be able to withstand it with the strength of our army in the west and north!" ”

Yi Yuan agreed: "What the prime minister said is extremely true! Your Majesty must not fall for Cao Cao's conspiracy! ”

When Liu Qi heard the two important ministers he trusted say this, he nodded and said to the scout: "Tell the two generals that you must hold on!" ”

"Yes!" The scout said yes and hurried away.

When the time reached noon, Xiahou Yuan, who was the main attacker, moved.

Youxian is located dozens of miles north of Changsha, is a strategic point, after the Wei army occupied Youxian County will be Youxian as a logistics transit base, most of the Wei army's grain and grass and a large number of materials are hoarded here.

Although there is no force that can threaten Youxian at this moment, Cao Cao still left 20,000 soldiers in Youxian in view of the lessons left by the previous Wu army and those left on the history, these 20,000 soldiers belong to the soldiers and the soldiers who later changed into the state soldiers, nearly half of which are supplemented by the other princes' surrendered troops, and the general responsible for defending this place is Lin Tao, an adjutant general of the Royal Forest Army next to Cao Cao.

Speaking of which, this Lin Tao still came out of the Chen Du School Palace opened by Cao Cao, and his martial arts are not as good as Dian Wei and others, but compared to some middle and upper-level generals in this era, it is almost the same.

Just when the offensive and defensive battle of Changsha was in full swing, a Jing Han army of tens of thousands of people quietly sneaked into the territory of Chaling, more than ten miles south of Youxian.

At this moment, a grain transport team escorted by 1,000 people is advancing on the official road leading to Youxian, although it is in the rear, this grain transport team still maintains considerable vigilance.

"General, there is no Wei army before and after!" A scout came to Chen Sheng to inspect the report.

Thinking that he was chased by Wei Jun like a lost dog before, it was possible to report revenge at this time, and Chen Sheng's eyes flashed with excitement. He shouted in a deep voice: "Do it! ”

The grain transport team that was marching on the official road suddenly heard the sound of killing all around, and they couldn't help but be stunned, and the officer reined in his horse and instinctively shouted: "Defense!" ”

Before the words fell, the whistling sound of flying locusts suddenly sounded all around, and the people who transported the grain and the Wei soldiers who were in charge of escorting them fell in large pieces. The officer also fell from his horse and died at this moment.

Immediately afterwards, countless Jing Han troops besieged from all sides, and the remaining Wei soldiers resisted desperately, and finally all of them were killed, and those people who helped the Wei army transport grain and grass were also killed.

In the afternoon, a grain transport team with the banner of the Wei army came to the city of Youxian, and the captain of the city gate strictly inspected the other party's customs clearance certificate and put them into the city of Youxian.

Lin Tao had just personally ordered a batch of grain and grass to the Wei army camp in Changsha, and returned to the county guard's mansion, and before he could sit down, a school captain came to report. Another 10,000 loads of grain and grass and 5,000 cans of fire oil have just arrived.

Lin Tao immediately prepared to go to the grain and grass warehouse, at this moment, a huge noise suddenly sounded not far away, some similar to the good things after a large number of porcelain pieces were broken, accompanied by the fire that rose to the sky, hearing this, seeing the sky-rushing fire, then Lin Tao's face turned pale. Ran out of the county guard and looked at the direction of the warehouse and said urgently: "It seems to be the direction of the warehouse!" What's going on? Fast! Come with me and see! ”

Lin Tao ran out with more than a dozen relatives, and a captain covered in blood rushed over.

"General. Oh no! The puppet Han army has attacked! The lieutenant panted for a report.

"Puppet Han Army?!"

Lin Tao was taken aback, and then he didn't think about it, and hurriedly ordered one of his relatives next to him to go to the barracks to give orders, and at the same time ordered one of his relatives to go to the county guard mansion to mobilize all his personal soldiers.

A moment later, Lin Tao led hundreds of his own soldiers straight to the direction of the warehouse, but he had not yet arrived at the warehouse. I heard the earth-shattering sound of fighting coming from the direction of the warehouse.

Finally, Lin Tao led hundreds of soldiers to the warehouse, only to see that hundreds of soldiers defending the warehouse were struggling to support, and more than a dozen warehouses were already in flames at this time.

Lin Tao couldn't help but be anxious and angry, and immediately led hundreds of his own soldiers into the battlefield. The initiative on the battlefield gradually returned to the side of the Wei army.

After a moment of fighting, the Wei army arrived one after another, and the Jing Han army was killed and retreated, but when the Jing Han army was about to be defeated, countless Jing Han troops suddenly poured into Youxian County.

The Wei army defending Youxian and the Jing Han army fought a bloody battle in the streets and alleys, although the Jing Han army had a considerable advantage in terms of strength, but it could only hold on to the Wei army.

Just when the two sides were at a standstill, fires rose one after another in the city of Youxian County. Due to the dry weather and the fact that the houses were all wooden at this time, the fire took off in a very short period of time.

The raging flames continued to spread in all directions, and the whole air seemed to be turned over, and the people who were originally hiding at home fled out of their homes in horror and subconsciously ran towards the places where there was no fire, and the streets and alleys were chaotic.

Looking at the increasingly arrogant fire, Lin Tao was anxious and angry, but he was helpless, and the armies on both sides disengaged one after another because of the fire.

"General, the fire is too big, let's spread it out of the city first!" A swarthy lieutenant suggested.

Lin Tao glanced at the flames rolling in the air, and couldn't help but give an order helplessly: "Scatter the army!" ”

The Wei army successively scattered Youxian County from the north gate and the west gate, while at the same time, the Jing Han army also scattered out of Youxian County from the south gate and the east gate, and some soldiers who were repelled by the flames struggled in the flames and were finally burned alive.

Lin Tao concentrated the remaining Wei army outside the West Gate, and at this moment there were only about 9,000 Wei troops left under Lin Tao's command.

The soldiers looked at Youxian County, which was completely wrapped in flames, and their expressions were complicated, and the faces of the officers all showed unwillingness, and many people who had lost their homes gathered around the Wei army, silently looking at Youxian County, with a sad look on their faces.

"Immediately fly the pigeon and send a message to your majesty!" Lin Tao frowned and ordered.

Changsha City.

The Wei army stormed Changsha City from three sides, and the Jing Han army had almost all its forces thrown into the battlefield. The soldiers of both sides fought bloodily on the west, north and south walls, the corpses of the soldiers on both sides were uneven, the trickle of blood flowed along the cracks in the bricks, and the most primitive roar echoed in the sky above Changsha City, at this moment, here, human life seemed so fragile.

Liu Qi paced back and forth in the lobby, the look on his face was more anxious than before, and the expressions of Zhuge Liang and Yi were also very solemn.

At this moment, the scout ran into the lobby and hurriedly reported: "Your Majesty, there is General Chen Sheng's flying pigeon biography!" ”

Liu Qi and the others couldn't help but be stunned, and then Liu Qi hurriedly stepped forward, snatched the book from the scout's hand, and quickly opened it and read it. (To be continued......)
