After a quick attack in one day, with the help of Chen Deng and a group of Confucian scholars and Jiangdong generals, Dongyang City was finally defended, but Chen Deng was not happy.
He has never taken action in the trapped camp. He once served under Lu Bu. He knows the horror of trapped camp better than anyone else.
"I'm afraid this city will be destroyed tonight!" Looking at Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, Chen Deng directly expressed his speculation.
"Why did Mr. Yuanlong say that?" Ling Cao said dissatisfied: "In today's battle, although the Xuzhou Army's offensive is fierce, we can still hold on to this offensive. In addition, there is sufficient food and grass in the city. I can still guard him for a month."
enough!"
No matter how unsuccessful it is, it won't be broken in one day.
Chen Deng shook his head and sighed: "General, I don't know, there is a battalion under Lu Bu's command, called the trap, and its commander is Gao Shun. This person leads the trap camp to fight. Every battle must be defeated. Today, the trap camp has not taken action. I am afraid that it has been recharging its strength."
, I guess he is either tonight or tomorrow, I am not looking down on you, he just fell into the camp and moved to the Central Plains, and he has not been defeated so far!"
"I have also heard about this camp." Zhou Yu nodded and stopped Ling Cao's retort: "Besides, Bamen City failed to trap Lu Bu today. We will continue to defend this small city. Not to mention defending for a month, it means defending for a year.
, this place is also a desperate situation, I will think of a way out soon!"
The killing move has not been used on the person it should be used on, and now only Dongyang and Ping'an are two small towns. There is really no point in holding on. It is only right to break out early in order to make a comeback in the future.
"Yuanlong, follow me back to Jiangdong. Whatever I lost today, I will help you regain it in the future!" Sun Ce looked at Chen Deng and said sincerely.
Although this battle was fought in vain, that is not Chen Deng's problem. Lu Bu's side was well-equipped with both civil and military forces. It would be difficult to deal with Lu Bu alone. Chen Deng's ability was quite good. Sun Ce had previously intended to recruit Chen Deng.
It's a pity that Chen Deng didn't want to. Now that the Chen family has been forced into a desperate situation, it is the right time to recruit them.
Chen Deng looked at Chen Gui. Chen Gui sighed in his heart and nodded silently. Chen Deng looked at Sun Ce and said, "Deng is willing to serve the general!"
"To capture Yuanlong is better than a hundred thousand soldiers!" Sun Ce laughed.
"I wonder when the general is going to break out of the encirclement?" Chen Gui asked.
"We'll leave tonight, but this time the navy I brought forward has been almost destroyed. I'm afraid we won't be able to leave at all!" Zhou Yu said, looking at Chen Gui.
This Chen Gui also understood: "I also know that I thought that our soldiers were divided into two groups and went all the way out through the north gate. The colorful three lines of Lu Bu were just the way to surround the three towers. The north gate seemed empty.
In fact, there are dangers everywhere. We ordered the army to break out from the north road and agreed to meet at Yuguo. We will lead the elite troops out from the east gate. What does the general think?"
"How is the battle at the east gate?" Zhou Yu asked.
Ximen is definitely out of the question. Not only is Chen Gong, a great scholar, stationed there, but his soldiers are also the main force of Lu Bu's army. There is also a trapped camp waiting there.
As for the south gate, Lu Bu is waiting with his cavalry. If they dare to go out from the south gate, Lu Bu's cavalry will catch up with them in an instant. Taishi Ci, Zhou Tai, Lu Meng, and Huang Gai are dead, and now they have no confidence to face Lu Bu.
They don't know much about the east gate direction.
"Today, the defenders at the east gate have been digging gullies, seemingly to prevent our army from leaving the city. It was not until the afternoon that a general attacked the city." Chen Ying said confidently: "The general is quite brave, but the east gate is not well guarded.
Several times we were almost breached by the general."
Of course he was talking about Wei Yan. If Chen Deng hadn't noticed something was wrong and rescued him in time, the east gate would have been breached by Wei Yan long ago.
However, they were blocked by Chen Ying and others after all. It seemed that the other generals were aggressive, but they were not as strong as Lu Bu. The threat from Chen Gong was greater.
"Just take the east gate!" Sun Ce sneered: "It is obvious that he is worried that we will break out of the encirclement by taking the initiative to build a defense. Instead, it is the north gate. It is strange that there is no preparation. Then how could Chen Gong leave such a big
flaw!"
Zhou Yu nodded silently, and he was also inclined to this possibility. After all, when encircling three towers and one tower, usually that tower and one tower is the most dangerous place. One of them can destroy the morale of the generals. If the two really break through, I am afraid that the north gate will be the most dangerous place.
This is a truly dangerous place.
Chen Gui summoned a map, pointed at it and said: "To the west of Dongyang, there is a river about thirty miles away. The ships needed by the general have been prepared here. From here, you can directly access the big lake. Then you can take the waterway through Gaoyou, and you can reach Zhongdu River.
It leads directly to Dongling Pavilion, and after passing Dongling Pavilion, you can enter the river!"
Sun Ce nodded and smiled: "As long as you get into the water, there's nothing Lu Bu can do. I can't wait!"
Although Sun Ce recently wanted to get rid of his dependence on the navy, at this moment, the navy is his biggest support. As long as they enter the water, even if Lu Bu catches up, they can escape.
Even though Lu Bu had monsters to help him in the water, after all, it was not Lu Bu who came in person, so Sun Ce had the confidence to kill the monster in the water.
"Then everyone, go and prepare. At the third watch, the army will come out from the north gate to attract the enemy's attention. I will gather at the east gate. As soon as the soldiers from the north gate come out, we will set off from the east gate to break through. I will wait for the soldiers to come out from the east gate.
Speed up and drive with all your strength. It only takes half an hour to reach the water's edge. Once you get there, don't worry about Lu Bu blocking you!" Sun Ce looked at the crowd and said.
"good!"
At that moment, the Chen family's father and son went to pack up their belongings and count their elite entourage. At the same time, they summoned the Guangling generals and told them that Dongyang could no longer be defended. They would break out of the siege from the north gate tonight, and then go to Yuguo to join them and go to Jiangdong together.
These people are the influence that the Chen family has cultivated over the years. The Chen family and his son would naturally not want to abandon them unless they had to, but now it is related to the rise and fall of the Chen family, so they have no choice but to abandon them.
…
On the other side, outside the west gate, Chen Gong looked at the map and said: "General Gao, the Chen family is probably going to break through tonight, and the trapped camp has not been used for a day. At this time, we will stop the opponent's breakout and break through Dongyang!"
Gao Shun stepped in and saluted: "The last general is ready to fight at any time."
Although there is quite a rift between the two, due to Chu Nan, the relationship between the two parties has eased a lot during this period. Moreover, Gao Shun is a person with a clear distinction between public and private affairs. No matter how much he dislikes Chen Gong, when big things happen, as long as Chen Gong is his
Coach, he will carry out Chen Gong's orders without hesitation.
"Take a rest for a while, and when the sky darkens, we will attack the city immediately without any mistakes!" Chen Gong handed the arrow to Gao Shun and said, "I will command the army to support the general!"
"Here!" Gao Shun took the command arrow with both hands and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Then the North Gate really doesn't need to be guarded?"
"Zhou Yu and Chen Deng are both wise men. Such wise men tend to think more. I predict that there will be breakouts at the North Gate tonight, and they are by no means the main force of the enemy. If they want to break out, they must go through the East Gate.
!" Chen Gong laughed.
"Is Ziyan in danger?" Gao Shun frowned and asked, this is half of his disciple.
"Zi Yan is no longer what he used to be. Moreover, the two generals around him are extraordinary generals. With the help of these two people, and what Zi Yan did today, he must have guessed that the enemy will probably leave him when they break out.
Over there." Chen Gong said with a smile.
"So he spent most of the day building defenses?" Gao Shun frowned and said, "So..."
Halfway through the words, Gao Shun understood. He looked at Chen Gong and said, "Sir, since he became a Confucian scholar, he is good at strategy."
It is precisely because Chu Nan built fortifications there that the people in the city felt that this place was weak. After all, if it was not weak, why would you build that thing? And Chu Nan has not attacked the city with all his strength today. Only Wei Yan attacked with force.
several times.
Chen Gong: "General, go and prepare."
Gao Shun's sarcasm is not humorous.
"General, I will retire." Gao Shun stepped in and saluted. In any case, in terms of military regulations, it is difficult to find fault with him.
East Gate, Chunan Camp.
"My Lord, Chen Deng really has some tricks up his sleeve. The general has attempted to attack the city several times today, but he has forced him to retreat." Wei Yan looked at Chu Nan and said.
"It doesn't matter." Chu Nan looked at the time: "I have ordered the monster ants to hollow out the bottom of the city gate. We have to work hard tonight. I don't know if we can break the city, but the city gate is already surrounded by
It's an open space. If we attack the city from the front at this time, I'm afraid our soldiers will be injured. Later, the general will go this way and directly attack the city."
"My lord, you mean... a night battle?" Wei Yan asked.
"Is it possible?" Chu Nan asked.
He doesn't have many troops, so attacking is always left to these generals who are good at fighting.
"Yes!" Wei Yan nodded firmly after a moment of silence.
Night fighting is detrimental to both the offensive and defensive sides, as many soldiers cannot see at night.
"Seize the opportunity and take action after dark." Chu Nan looked at Wei Yan and said.
"Here!" Wei Yan nodded. He liked the lord's style a little bit. He never pointed out the direction and set the general direction. When attacking, he always let people play freely. This is very good.
"I will call the demon mantis and pigeon demon to assist you! If necessary, you can speak to them directly, they can understand human speech." Chu Nan summoned the pigeon demon and demon mantis who looked reluctant and asked them to obey.
Wei Yan mobilized.
"Thank you so much, lord. With their help, we will be able to break the city tonight!" Wei Yan was overjoyed. After bowing to Chu Nan, he pulled the two beasts and ran away.
After Wei Yan left, Chu Nan called Zhou Cang and asked, "Teacher, has anyone sent someone here to deliver the message?"
"No one has come yet." Zhou Cang shook his head.
Does this mean I have to figure it out myself?
Chu Nan nodded. This was the first time he led an army alone to fight. Although Huang Zhong and Wei Yan were by his side and they were responsible for the battle, he needed to decide the general direction, so every step Chu Nan took was very important.
Safe, is this considered a teaching test?
Chu Nan thought about it carefully, and after making sure that he made no omissions, he lay down on the couch to rest.
Outside the south gate, Lu Bu directly regarded the outer city of the Eight Gate City as a temporary base. The sky had darkened. Lu Bu looked at the dark Eight Gate City behind him. He didn't know what the mystery was in this city. Every time he wanted to go deep, he would
I feel a threat. After this battle, I should go in and take a closer look.
"Lord." Wei Xu led Wei Yue in and saluted Lu Bu.
"Is there any news from Ziyan and Gongtai?" Lu Bu asked.
