When Manchong heard that there were many enemy troops outside the city, an unbelievable and frightening thought began to come to his mind.

Man Chong stepped forward and stared at the kneeling soldier and asked, "Where did the enemy army come from?"

Man Chong's tone was full of anxiety, but there was still a glimmer of hope.

if only......

But to Man Chong's dismay, the kneeling soldier panicked and replied: "Many enemy boats appeared on the upper reaches of the Han River!"

When the soldier's words fell into Man Chong's ears, his figure could no longer remain stable and he staggered and almost fell to the ground.

A large number of enemy troops swam down from the upper reaches of the Han River. Man Chong knew what this meant.

Cao Ren led nearly 50,000 troops upstream. When he entered the Han River and controlled the Han River water forts, he would definitely divide his troops to garrison the rear route.

Under such circumstances, how come there are still a large number of enemy troops swimming down the river?

Moreover, the most important thing is that a large number of enemy troops swimming down the river should encounter Cao Ren's army.

But now there is no news about Cao Ren's army, but a large number of enemy troops appear on the Han River outside Wudang County. All these signs indicate one thing:

Cao Ren's army has encountered an unexpected event!

Although I don’t know what kind of unexpected situation Cao Ren’s army has encountered, at least it was a big defeat. Otherwise, how could Mi Yang’s army be so rampant!

It's even possible...

It's terrifying to think about it carefully, and I don't dare to think about it any more.

Man Chong's body kept retreating, and finally leaned on the sword stand nearby.

Looking at the sword on the sword stand, a look of determination appeared on Man Chong's frightened face.

Now tens of thousands of troops are missing and the fate of Cao Ren and other Wei generals is unknown. The only one he can rely on is himself.

Man Chong has experienced a lot of storms in his life, so he can still keep himself calm at this time.

Man Chong immediately sat back at the desk, and then quickly started writing.

Because time was tight, Man Chong did not have the time to write too many words. He simply wrote two sentences:

"The life or death of the general Chariot and Cavalry is unknown, Wudang is in danger, please help quickly!"

With these two simple sentences, Man Chong wrote several silk letters in succession.

Then he summoned a dozen scouts and handed the letter for help he had written into their hands.

With a solemn look on her face, Man Chong told them one by one that they must send these letters for help to wherever they are seeking help as soon as possible.

These dozen scouts were all elites left over from the Battle of Fancheng. After receiving Man Chong's letter asking for help, they didn't say much. After bowing to Man Chong, they left the county hall.

After completing this matter, Man Chong picked up the sword on the sword stand and led all his guards towards the city gate of Wudang County.

...

Deng Ai and Feng Xi stood on a stern, looking at Wudang County, which was very close at hand, with joyful smiles on their faces.

In addition to the joyful smile on Feng Xi's face, there was also strong excitement.

Feng Xi was from Nanjun, Jingzhou, and he joined Liu Bei's army when Liu Bei was stationed in Jingzhou.

After joining Liu Bei's army, Yun Wen and Yun Wu were highly regarded by Liu Bei because of his talents.

Later, when Liu Bei entered Shu, he also followed Liu Bei. From then on, he has been staying in Yizhou.

Feng Xi had heard of the reputation of Mi Yang's public security battle before.

Because of this, when he received Liu Bei's secret order to assist Mi Yang, Feng Xi did not underestimate or be dissatisfied with Mi Yang because of his qualifications.

Since leading the army outside the west city, he has been faithfully executing Mi Yang's orders.

Among the tasks Mi Yang had previously assigned to the generals, Mi Yang gave Feng Xi a very important task in view of Liu Bei's historical experience of letting Feng Xi serve as the former commander-in-chief. Mi Yang trusted Liu Bei's vision.

That is to let Feng Xi lead an army of 6,000 people and hide in the mountains and forests next to the Han River Water Village.

Once Cao Ren's army crosses the water stronghold, Feng Xi can immediately lead the army out, get rid of the Wei troops left by Cao Ren to garrison the water stronghold, and then block the retreat of Cao Ren's army.

In this way, even if some Wei troops escape by chance, they will fall into Feng Xi's ambush when they retreat all the way.

Moreover, this move can also prevent the Wei army in Wudang County from detecting news about Cao Ren's army.

Judging from the fact that Man Chong had no news about Cao Ren's army, Feng Xi undoubtedly completed the task assigned to him by Mi Yang very successfully.

After Mi Yang saw that the destruction of Cao Ren's army had become a fact, he immediately sent a message to Feng Xi, asking him to lead the army to swim down the river and surround Wudang County.

After Feng Xi received this military order from Mi Yang, he did not dare to neglect at all, and quickly led his army to board the boats and swim down the river.

But at the same time, he was even more in awe of Mi Yang.

In troubled times, it is easy for famous generals with outstanding military exploits to establish great prestige.

Since Mi Yang was able to issue an order for him to lead his army down the river, he must have almost taken care of Cao Ren's army.

Moreover, even though he was downstream, Feng Xi could still vaguely see the red sky and earth when he climbed up.

This naturally brought to Feng Xi's mind the scene of Cao Ren's army wailing in the sea of ​​fire.

This made Feng Xi excited, and at the same time, he felt more in awe of Mi Yang.

In the past, Mi Yang was praised as a god during the battle with the police, but that was only heard.

After hearing what he heard, Feng Xi believed Mi Yang's achievements, but his feelings in his heart were definitely not as deep as what he had seen with his own eyes.

But Cao Ren is now the number one general in the rebellion against Wei, and now he is in crisis under Mi Yang's plan. The excitement and pride in his heart are huge for Feng Xi.

There is even an idea quietly emerging in Feng Xi's mind now.

Compared to the unabashed excitement on Feng Xi's face, Deng Ai's face looked calmer.

It's not that his character is deeper than Feng Xi's, it's just that he is no stranger to Deng Ai.

Although Deng Ai had not participated in the public security battle with Mi Yang, he had seen Mi Yang use his reputation to scare the Wu army into chaos outside Xiakou.

Moreover, since Deng Ai followed Mi Yang, Mi Yang's behavior was very different from others, and Deng Ai was more mentally prepared than Feng Xi.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It’s just that the pride in Deng Ai’s heart is higher than that of Feng Xi.

Only by doing this can you become worthy of being my master.

Deng Ai raised his head high and looked at Wudang County below. His eyes were filled with determination to win the Wudang County below.

When six thousand Han troops gradually approached Wudang County by boat, Feng Xi immediately commanded his army to go ashore and surrounded Wudang County.

Wudang County is built on the Han River, so Feng Xi only needs to lead his army to surround the remaining three gates of Wudang County.

After six thousand Han troops surrounded Wudang County, some Han scouts captured several Wei troops outside Wudang City and found Man Chong's letter asking for help from their bodies.

After Feng Xi heard the news, his thick eyebrows furrowed. He found Deng Ai to discuss the next arrangements with him.

Due to his qualifications, Deng Ai was appointed as Feng Xi's deputy general by Mi Yang.

Although Deng Ai has low qualifications, he is quite resourceful. Letting him serve as Feng Xi's deputy can have the effect of checking for deficiencies and filling in the gaps.

After Deng Ai learned the news, there was no sadness on his face.

Wudang was built on the Han River, and their army flowed down the Han River. Such a move must not be hidden from the Wei army on the Wudang city wall.

And once the Wei army detects the appearance of their army, the generals of the Wei army in the city will know about it very quickly.

Under such circumstances, as long as the Wei general in Wudang City reacts quickly, his first reaction will of course be to ask for help.

After all, it takes time for a large army to siege the city. During this period, it is not surprising that the Wei army commander in Wudang City sent some messengers from the city.

Mi Yang had already anticipated this, so he said in his military order to Feng Xi: "Besiege the city as soon as possible before the bandit army comes to help."

Mi Yang's main concern was the reinforcements from the Wei army stationed in other counties in Nanyang.

If the news is known to the Wei troops stationed in other counties in advance, then the Wei troops in Yin County and other counties closest to Wudang can reach Wudang County in about half a day with a rapid march.

Once the Wei army's reinforcements enter Wudang County, the city defense in Wudang County will be strengthened, which will not be conducive to the Han army's subsequent attack on the city.

Because he knew what Mi Yang meant, Deng Ai said to Feng Xiyan:

"Xiu Yuan doesn't need to worry. Now Wudang County has been surrounded by our army. Even if the bandit troops stationed in various places get the news, it will not affect the overall situation."

Deng Ai still had some judgment in his heart.

It is even possible that once the news of Mi Yang's defeat of Cao Ren spreads, it is not certain whether the Wei troops from other counties in Nanyang would dare to come and die!

After Deng Ai said this, a look of relief appeared on Feng Xi's face.

He was a little too impatient just now.

Or maybe it was because Mi Yang's prestige in his heart was too deep now, and he was worried that he would not be able to complete the tasks assigned by Mi Yang and would disappoint Mi Yang.

Then Feng Xi immediately ordered the three Han armies besieging the city to start building camps on the spot.

Mi Yang's task for Feng Xi was to surround Wudang County, but did not ask him to capture Wudang County with the help of his army.

Siege warfare is not easy, not to mention that according to previous intelligence, Wudang County, as a bridgehead to defend against him, has a very solid city defense and is not easy to capture.

So after Feng Xi surrounded Wudang County, he began to build military camps.

In this way, on the one hand, Wudang County can be further surrounded with the help of military camps, and on the other hand, they can move in immediately after Mi Yang's follow-up army arrives.
