In the woods outside the city, Huang Zu and Huang She were lurking here. Three thousand people stayed on the mountain for five days with not much food. Today Huang Zu received an order from Liu Cong.
He could return to attack. In the past few days, he asked a few soldiers to pretend to be hunters and found out that Chen Jiu's body was hanging on the top of the city. He also found out that Sun Quan had led his troops into E County.
The moonlight was very bright tonight, and Huang Zu could vaguely see the human figure on the top of the city through the moonlight.
Huang Zu gritted his teeth, held back the tears in his eyes, and said silently in his heart, "Brother, I'm here to avenge you!"
Huang She followed Huang Zu in an eerie silence. Since that day, Huang She had not said a word. Huang Zu looked back at him, and Huang She gave Huang Zu a reassuring look.
In the magistrate's residence in E County, Sun Quan had already fallen asleep. Pan Zhang and Chen Wu took turns guarding Sun Quan. Today it was Pan Zhang's turn.
"Ah." After beating him, Pan Zhang said to the soldiers around him: "You guys keep an eye on me. I'll ask the chef to add some food to our brothers."
"Okay, general, benevolent and righteous!" Because Sun Quan was sleeping inside, the soldiers replied in a low voice.
Pan Zhang came to the kitchen, took a look, and was about to wake up the sleeping cook.
"Bang." Suddenly he seemed to hear a noise. Pan Zhang stopped, turned and walked towards the kitchen, slowly pulling out the knife as he walked.
Pan Zhang opened the door and rushed in.
"Puff, puff, puff..."
The soldier hiding behind the door drew his knife quickly and stabbed it again and again. Huang Zu pinched Pan Zhang's neck with one hand and covered his mouth with the other, not caring at all about the blood flowing from Pan Zhang's mouth.
"Uh, uh... uh..." Pan Zhang was considered a warrior from Jiangdong. He was stabbed in an instant, dozens of times in a row. The severe pain made his body soften and he slowly fell down. Huang Zu
Support him and gently place him on the ground.
After leaving the kitchen, Huang Zu waited for about a moment and asked, "How many people have come up?"
A soldier nearby reported: "There are three hundred people here."
Huang Zu waved his hand, and Huang She, Zhang Wu, Cai Xun, Deng Long, Chen Sun, and Chen Sheng came over.
"I will personally lead these three hundred people to attack the county government! Zhang Wu, Cai Xun, you two take Huang She with you. When the number of people who come up has reached one thousand, go straight to the barracks in the west of the city and just set fire to kill people."
Huang Zu knew that if the county government was attacked, the entire Wu army in the city would come to the rescue, so it was safest for Huang She to follow him to the barracks in the west.
"Father, shall I go attack the county government?" Huang She said.
"Shut up!" Huang Zu scolded him in a low voice.
"Deng Long, you come with me. Chen Sheng, Chen Sun, you two, wait for the remaining people to come up and support me in two groups."
"promise!"
The county government has five hundred guards. Pan Zhang led a thousand men to garrison E County, and Sun Quan led another three thousand troops to enter. Now there are four thousand troops in E County.
Five hundred sergeants guarded the county government to protect Sun Quan's safety. More than 2,000 people guarded the city at the top of the city. The remaining 1,500 people were led by Chen Wu and stationed in the barracks in the west of the city. There were also 5,000 people left behind last time.
Wounded soldiers.
County House, outside the house where Sun Quan slept.
"General Pan has been gone for more than two quarters of an hour, why haven't you come back yet?" Several soldiers finally got impatient with the wait.
The leader of the army, Sima, suppressed the noise of the crowd with one look and looked in the direction Pan Zhang was leaving. His eyes were full of doubts. But he still reassured everyone: "You guys stay here, I'll go take a look."
"promise!"
Huang Zu followed Pang Tong's plan and dug a tunnel under the kitchen stove of the county government. No one has noticed it to this day. Who would have thought that Huang Zu dug a tunnel here?
More than three hundred people, relying on the moonlight, leaned against the wall and moved slowly, trying not to make any noise.
"who?"
Huang Zu's eyes were sharp, he raised his knife and chopped it, and at the same time shouted: "Charge!"
The army commander didn't even react to draw his sword, so he was stabbed by Huang Zu on the shoulder. Deng Long rushed up and slashed Huang Zu in the face. Until his death, he still didn't know why there were so many people here.
Not far away, several uncles looked at each other, and one of them immediately shouted: "There are assassins, be on guard, everyone protects the lord."
Immediately, sergeants from all over the county government rushed towards the house where Sun Quan was.
"What's going on?" Sun Quan in the room was also awakened.
"My lord, something seems to be wrong. The last general has ordered people to set fire to the mansion and sent someone to notify General Chen Wu."
The purpose of setting the fire was to let more people know that something had happened to the county government, and to ask those who saw it to come to the rescue quickly.
Inside the house, Sun Quan put on his brocade robe and picked up the sword on the shelf.
With a creak, the door opened. Sun Quan stood barefoot at the door. His eyes were full of cold anger. He looked at Uncle Du coldly and said, "Where is Pan Zhang? How many assassins are there?"
At this moment, there were more than 400 people in the courtyard where Sun Quan was, and all of them except those who were patrolling in the mansion had arrived.
Fifty people guarded Sun Quan, the rest held spears and shields, and more than a hundred people held bows and crossbows, waiting in strict formation.
"Kill, fight in, and capture Sun Quan alive!"
Before Uncle Dub could answer, there were shouts of murder outside the courtyard.
With a bang, the door was smashed, and several soldiers rushed in. Someone also climbed in from the wall.
"Fire arrows!" Sun Quan shouted loudly, and then the Wu army began to fire arrows, but after only one round of firing, the Jingzhou army that rushed in came face to face with the Wu army. The crossbowmen stopped firing arrows and picked up their weapons to prepare for hand-to-hand combat.
Sun Quan's face was full of surprise and uncertainty. How could there be so many sergeants? Has the city been lost?
Uncle Du next to him also explained that Pan Zhang and Jun Sima might have been killed.
Sun Quan's back was covered in cold sweat. He forced himself to calm down. He pulled out his sword and placed it across Nadu Bo's neck: "Lead 50 people to guard the door. I must be able to guard it! Come in and help me put on my armor."
, we have to fight our way out."
After saying this, Sun Quan walked back into the house, followed by two sergeants. The door was not even closed, and they hurried over to put on Sun Quan's armor.
"General, it's not good." From the barracks in the west of the city, a shout woke up Chen Wu who was sleeping soundly.
Lifting the quilt, Chen Wu looked out the door and asked, "What's going on?"
"Lord, there is a fire, and there are sounds of fighting!"
"Wake up everyone immediately and gather together! Wake up the wounded soldiers who are slightly injured and can move, and get ready for battle!" Chen Wu opened the door with an anxious look on his face.
After a full two moments, 1,500 people were able to assemble, and there were nearly a thousand wounded soldiers standing on one side of the military formation.
"Start immediately and go straight to the county government. The wounded soldiers will stay in the barracks." Chen Wu, wearing armor and holding a sword, rode at a gallop, and the troops behind him ran wildly with him.
"Go, let three hundred people come down from each city wall and go straight to the county government." As his horse galloped, Chen Wu ordered to the guards around him.
"No!" Several guards took the order and rode away.
At this moment, Zhang Wu, Cai Xun and Huang She were leading more than a thousand people who came out of the tunnel to go to the barracks in the west of the city.
"Stop!" Huang She yelled as soon as several people led the troops into the street.
Facing the confused looks of Zhang Wu and Cai Xun, Huang She said: "We will definitely not be able to gather as fast as the Wu army when we get in from the tunnel. Maybe they have already brought people over to kill them."
"Go back and help father catch Sun Quan. If we catch him, we will win!" After saying that, he turned around and ran back.
Zhang Wu and Cai Xun looked at each other and then followed.
