Chapter 578 Invading Yanzhou

Just at the stall where Zhuge Liang captured Huainan, Lu Bu suddenly launched a fierce attack on Yanzhou. The attacking troops included four regular corpses: Long Tao Army, Cavalry Army, Luoyang Army and Pingnan Army, more than 200,000 barbarian troops, with a total force of more than 60.

There were 460,000 Cao's army guarding Yangzhou, of which 210,000 were regular troops, and the other 250,000 were civilian troops just included in the regular army. Forty-six thousand soldiers rely on Jinchi Tangcheng

Defence. Lu Bu's army attacked fiercely for two consecutive days, paying the price of nearly 10,000 casualties but failing to make any progress.

Then the Lu Bu army stopped attacking. The Cao army soldiers thought that the Lu Bu army captured the city of Yanzhou, strong resistance and tenaciousness, and were afraid to fight. However, Sima Yi frowned and said, "Looking at the offensive of the Lu Bu army in the past two days, it is obvious that they have been preparing for a long time!

If you have to attack so fully and vigorously, you can give up halfway through two days without reason!”

Cao Pi nodded and asked, "Sir, what kind of conspiracy do Lu Bu think there is?"

Sima Yi thought, "The previous fall of Yuzhou was because Lu Bu's army dug tunnels and entered the city. We must beware of their old tricks again! The generals of the city gate should be ordered to bury the large tanks underground next to the city wall, and send people through the large tanks day and night.

Listen to the movement and report it immediately if there is a sound of excavation!"

Cao Pi deeply agreed and immediately ordered someone to send orders to the city gates.

...

That night, Xu You led Han Meng and his three thousand soldiers to the gate of the North City. The captain of the city gate saw many people coming from the shadows, and quickly shouted: "Who is it?"

Xu You replied: "It's me, Xu You."

The captain saw Xu You's face with the light of the torch and hurriedly stepped forward to pay homage: "The villain is paying homage to the adults. I wonder why the adults suddenly came?"

Xu You looked up at the city wall that was waiting for battle and said, "I am here to inspect the city defense by the lord. There is nothing wrong, right?" Xiaowei quickly clasped her fists and said, "Nothing is wrong."

Xu You nodded, looked around, and said to Han Meng: "Go up and take a look." Han Meng clasped his fists and immediately led two thousand people to walk along the wall ladder to the city wall. Xu You suddenly looked at the captain's lieutenant.

There was a look of surprise behind her and pointed at her, "What is that?" The lieutenant was confused and turned his head subconsciously, but saw nothing. Then he felt his chest being pierced by a sharp blade!

He was shocked and turned his head, and saw Xu You holding a steel knife with a ferocious look on his face! "You..."

Xu You kicked the captain and raised his sword and shouted, "Do it!" The soldiers around him immediately broke out and rushed towards the Cao army soldiers at the gate of the city. The Cao army soldiers were caught off guard and fell into a blood pool in a blink of an eye.

Among them, Han Meng also captured the city gate tower, killed all the soldiers on the city gate tower, and then ordered people to raise the iron gate!

When Xu You saw the iron gate rise, he immediately ordered someone to remove the door bolt and push open the door.

The city gate opened wide, and countless torches suddenly lit up outside the black city gate, as if the stars were long. The "formation" gathered into a torrent and poured into the city!

The sound of the alarm bell in Yanzhou was loud, and Cao Pi and two concubines who were sleeping with each other woke up. Seeing the fires flashing outside the window and hearing the vast sound of killing sounds from far to near, a feeling of fear arose in my heart.

Cao Pi quickly got out of bed, rushed out of the bedroom with his hands and hands, and as soon as he came out, he met Sima Yi who was rushing towards him. Before Cao Pi could ask, Sima Yi said anxiously: "It's not good."

Lord! Xu You, who was connected with foreign enemies, opened the northern city gate, and Lu Bu's army had already entered the city!"

Cao Pi was stunned and then cursed: "Xu You's husband! I swear to kill you!"

Sima Yi said anxiously: "Now is not the time to care about this. The most urgent thing is to get out of danger and preserve your strength! I have ordered some newly formed troops to fight, and at the same time ordered other large troops to retreat quickly. The lord should retreat quickly. If you are too late,

It's too late!"

Cao Pi nodded, regardless of the two concubines in the room who were still close to him not long ago, and hurriedly left with Sima Yi.

The two concubines expected that things were not good, so they hurriedly put on their clothes and came out, wanting to escape with Cao Pi, but Cao Pi disappeared. At this time, the terrifying sound of killing had arrived at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The woman was so scared that she was nobody's face. The youngest one said, "Sister, I heard that Lu Bu's army was strict in military discipline and would never kill the people or surrendered troops. At this moment, the war was in chaos and running around was really dangerous. Why not surrender to Lu Bu just now!

"The older Zheng Liushen was unruly. He heard that her sister made sense, so he nodded and agreed. The two girls knelt outside the room and waited for Lu Bujun's arrival. Although they had made up their minds, they were still in a state of mind.

Very uneasy.

A moment later, the rapid sound of horse hooves appeared at the arch in front. The two women subconsciously looked up and saw a powerful general who was extremely powerful and rushed in with a large group of cavalry. The two women were extremely nervous and hung their heads low.

, waiting for the arrival of fate. The two women didn't know at this moment that the powerful general they saw was actually the legendary general Lu Bu.

Zhang Lang led the Hu Ben guards to the two women, looked around, and asked the two women, "Who are you?"

The older woman was so scared that she dared not speak, and she kept trembling; the young woman hurriedly bowed and said, "We are Prime Minister Cao's Kabuki. The Prime Minister fled and left us all."

Zhang Lang immediately asked: "Where did Cao Pi escape?"

The young woman straightened her waist, pointed her finger at a side door behind her, and said, "I walked from there, I don't know where I went!"

Zhang Lang immediately ordered Wang Yi beside him: "You lead a team of female soldiers to stay. No one is allowed to leave without my permission, and no one is allowed to come in without my permission!" Wang Yi held his fists and agreed.

Zhang Lang immediately led Dong Ying and other personal generals to lead Hu Ben's personal army to chase Cao Pi in the direction of escape.

At this moment, the heavy army of Lu Bu defeated the enemies in front of him and spread out to occupy key departments.

Zhang Lang led people to chase the East City Gate, but did not catch up with Lu Bu. He learned from the prisoners that the Cao army had withdrawn from the East Gate. He immediately said to Dong Ying, "Yingying, you can stay in Yanzhou for me!" He turned his head and said to Xiao Long:

"Immediately transfer Huang Zhong's cavalry army to me! Hurry!" Xiao Long agreed with his fists, turned his head and ran away.

Not long after, Huang Zhong led the 100,000 cavalry army to find out the East City Gate. Zhang Lang led the 100,000 cavalry army out of the East City Gate and pursued Cao Pi without saying a word.

Hundreds of thousands of war cavalry rushed out, caught up with the tens of thousands of Cao troops falling at the end, and immediately launched a charge! Before the battle was met, the already panic-in Cao army was already in chaos!
Chapter completed!
