Chapter 586 The counterattack of the third-rate trash fish

?The carnivorous animals who did not catch prey in Qu County, Donghai turned their heads and rushed towards Xia Pi, intending to find some comfort and compensation after psychological loss here.

So, it was Tao Qian's turn to greet their eight generations of ancestors.

The key issue is that regardless of whether Tao Qian greets or his ancestors, the 80,000 troops gathered outside Xia Pi City were starting to prepare for the project according to the agreed time. Some large siege equipment were transported to the city one after another. Tao Qian, who was only seen on the city, was frightened and lost his former calmness.

There were still a few people under Tao Qian's men who could use it, such as Chen Gui, Chen Deng and his son, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang, but now these people either went to Jin State or went to Yuzhou Island, leaving only Cao Bao, Sun Guan, Zhang Kai, Zhao Yu and others to follow him. If Zhao Xing had not specifically instructed Chen Deng to help Tao Qian defend Xia Pi, the East China Sea prefect would probably follow Mi Zhu to Yuzhou Island to fish and play on the beach and barbecue. How could there be no time to accompany Tao Qian in Xia Pi to be scared?

Chen Deng, who accompanied Tao Qian to patrol the city, carefully observed the movements of the armies outside the four gates with a telescope. Tao Qian was very surprised after seeing it, and said, "What mechanism is Yuanlong holding in his hand? It seems that he can look into the distance?"

Chen Deng didn't explain, and handed the binocular telescope to Tao Qian and said, "Mr. Zhou Mu will know at a glance."

Tao Qian then followed Chen Deng's demonstration movements, approached the telescope close to his eyes, and then curiously looked at Zhang Xunjun, who was busy making siege equipment under the city. The next moment, Tao Qian almost fell the telescope in his hand to the ground in shock. He said with obvious emotion: "This is really strange. He actually brought all the people and things thousands of steps away to the front. It was simply noticeable and very vivid!"

Chen Deng thought to himself: If you know that such a rogue is worth ten thousand gold, if you are not a person who trusts very much, you will have no way to get it, you will be afraid that your tongue will be stretched out.

After talking for a few words, Tao Qian regained his worried expression and said, "Now all the troops under the city are busy making siege equipment. Once it is completed, Xia Pi City will usher in a bloody rain. I don't know when the reinforcements from Jin State will arrive."

Chen Deng concentrating on his mind for a moment, then whispered in Tao Qian's ear: "I have a plan to slow down the actions of the troops under the city, just like this..."

After hearing Chen Deng's plan, Tao Qian expressed his surprise expression again and said hesitantly: "Can Cao Bao, Sun Guan, Zhang Kai and others really escape unscathed?"

Chen Deng replied: "It is precisely because Cao Bao and Zhang Kai are not famous, and all the generals who are surrounded by the city regard themselves very high, so they must think that we dare not go out of the city to attack, and we can take advantage of a loophole!"

Tao Qian felt that Chen Deng’s analysis made sense, so he ordered people to call the general Cao Bao and others to the city, and asked Chen Deng to set up a plan for the two of them to sneak attack after the night.

Since Cao Bao and Sun Guan were trained in the Jin Dynasty Crouching Tiger Martial Arts Hall, their vision has been very different from before. They have also mastered some tactics and strategies for night battles and sneak attacks. So after listening to Chen Deng's arrangement, not only did they not feel frightened, but instead looked eager to try. As for Zhang Kai, he turned out to be the remnant of the Yellow Turbans and was secretly taken in by Tao Qian, so he was also a bold master. Naturally, he was not afraid of going out of the city to attack him and it was possible to trap him in.

There were 20,000 soldiers and horses in Xia Pi City, mainly infantry. Among them, 10,000 soldiers who returned from Jin State had considerable combat power, and their combat qualities were obviously higher than the other 10,000. They were always led by Cao Bao and Sun Guan, and the other 10,000 were led by Zhang Kai and Zhao Yu.

This time, Chen Deng's plan was to dispatch 10,000 troops, of which the higher combat power was 6,000, and Cao Bao and Sun Guan each led 3,000 people. The targets of the sneak attack were Zhang Xun outside the east gate and Pan Feng outside the south gate. The other four thousand troops with weak combat power were also divided into two routes, led by Zhang Kai and Zhao Yu respectively, mainly going to the north gate and the west gate to make a feint attack, and did not go deep into the enemy camp to carry out real sneak attacks.

Chen Deng arranged troops like this, and there was the smell of Tian Ji's horse racing. Based on his analysis and judgment, Yuan Shao's Wen Chou and Feng Ji, as well as Cao Cao's Xiahou Yuan and Xi Zhicai, were all very powerful characters, and it was difficult to successfully attack. Pan Feng, Liu Yan's subordinates and Zhang Xun, under Yuan Shu, were also known as generals, and they were several levels away from Wen Chou and Xiahou Yuan. Therefore, Cao Bao and Sun Guan, who were trained in the Crouching Tiger Lecture Hall, and Zhang Xun and Pan Feng, were allowed to use mud legs and Zhao Yu, who was a literati, to pretend to be a force to interfere with the sight of Yuan Cao's army.

Several third-rate miscellaneous fish in Xia Pi City each led thousands of troops out of each gate at the third night.

The soldiers brought out of the city by Cao Bao and Sun Guan mainly carried longbow weapons and some "flammable and explosive" things. Their goal was to stab Zhang Xun and Pan Feng's central army camp hard, and wherever they stabbed. If Zhang Xun or Pan Feng died in the chaos, it would be equivalent to stabbing this knife into the heart of the enemy.

The soldiers brought out of the city by Zhang Kai and Zhao Yu mainly defend and run away. In addition to carrying basic weapons, there are also some objects that can make loud noises. Their goal is to scare and disturb Wen Chou and Xiahou Yuan's troops. Once they find that the other party leads the army to launch an attack, they immediately run into the city to hide.

Half an hour later, all the troops that had taken action were in place, and a night attack began in the true and falsehood.

In the dark night, the soldiers of Xuzhou who were prepared were conveniently raising bows and arrows four hundred steps away from Zhang Xun and Pan Feng camps, and shot the rapid rain of arrows ruthlessly at Zhang and Pan Zhong army camp tents. After a while, the arrows shot down from the air penetrated the already thin curtain of Xia Ye, and injured and killed many Yangzhou soldiers and Yuzhou soldiers.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" A shrill alarm sounded finally in Zhang Xun and Pan Feng's camp. The soldiers who woke up from their dreams hurried out of the camp tent and took weapons to find the enemy, but they ushered in the next ruthless rain of arrows.

As soon as Zhang Xun and Pan Feng heard the alarm, they immediately rushed out of the camp to command the soldiers under them to remain calm, then looked for the direction of the arrows to determine the enemy's position. They quickly gathered a counterattack formation and gritted their teeth to prepare for a head-on battle with the ignorant Xuzhou soldiers.

Unfortunately, Cao Bao and Sun Guan did not give them this opportunity. After ordering their soldiers to shoot the last batch of arrows wrapped in tinder oil, they immediately led their troops to retreat into the city.

Seeing the fire rain falling all over the sky, Zhang Xun and Pan Feng decisively gave up pursuing the enemy, but quickly organized soldiers to start rescue of the wounded and put out the fire.

The east gate and the south gate were lively, while the north gate and the west gate were even more disturbing.

After Zhang Kai and Zhao Yu left the city gate, they kept Chen Deng's instructions in mind. When they were more than a mile away from Yuan and Cao's army, they stopped and adjusted the troops to retreat. Then they ordered their soldiers to yell and yell. For a moment, they were so dark that it sounded like tens of thousands of people were charging and roaring.

Wen Chou, Xiahou Yuan and others, who were awakened by the huge noise, immediately organized the troops to prepare for a defensive counterattack in a calm manner. However, they found that it was a false alarm, so they were very annoyed to organize soldiers to pounce on the Xuzhou soldiers beating drums and drums under the city.

However, what annoyed Yuan and Cao's army was that these Xuzhou soldiers seemed to be transformed by rabbits. Without waiting for their own army to surround them, they actually fled into Xiapi City in a scattered manner. The speed of running away was really fast! ~
