The unexpected march route took advantage of the arrogance of the Shouchun defenders and the cover of the early summer fog.

The Wu army who made a surprise attack suddenly appeared outside Shouchun City, catching the defenders and people of Shouchun City off guard.

Especially the people and soldiers crowded at the gate, they had no view of the defenders at the top of the city.

Hearing the siren, the soldier's expression changed and he subconsciously looked into the distance.

But the people were at a loss and didn't know why.

Some people were even in a hurry to get out of the city and did not even notice the alarm from the city head.

The first city gate soldier to react subconsciously shouted:

"Wu people! Thieves! Wu bandits are coming!"

The city gate officer was shocked by the roar from the people below, and finally reacted:

"Spread out, spread out quickly!"

The panic of the soldiers at the city gate was like a plague, and it finally spread to everyone entering and exiting.

Many of the people who were originally excluded from the city gate were so frightened that their legs became weak and they were so frightened that they didn't know what to do.

The remaining part subconsciously rushed towards the city gate.

"The thief is coming!"

"Wu Kou!"

"Run away!"

…

The situation outside the city gate suddenly became chaotic.

But the people inside the city gate didn't realize what happened.

Some people saw that the exit was blocked and were still cursing:

"Why are you squeezing? You are in a hurry to find death!"

"Wu Kou, Wu Kou is here!"

A man, relying on his physical strength, fought his way through the exit and squeezed in while shouting:

"Retreat quickly, return to the city quickly!"

"What?"

"The Wu thief is here!"

More and more sounds came from outside the city, and more and more people began to pour into the city, finally pushing back the crowds who were blocked in the city and preparing to go out.

A frail woman could not stand firmly and staggered down.

"Mom!"

A man who was pushed away by the crowd stretched out his arms and screamed.

But at this time, everyone was thinking of rushing towards the city. No matter how hard the man tried, he was constantly being pushed back by the crowd.

He watched helplessly as his mother fell to the ground and tried to get up.

I don't know who's foot kicked her at once, then the second, then the third...

The woman who was only half-propelled was kicked over by continuous kicks and fell to the ground again.

Then more and more feet stepped on her body.

"Mom!"

The man's eyes were red, but he could only watch the blood on the woman's face.

She stretched out her hand again and again, wanting to get up.

But he was kicked down again and again.

…

Mass stampedes began to appear.

Compared with the people who were anxious to run to the city for refuge, the Wei army officers and soldiers at the city gate were even more anxious than they were.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way quickly!"

The city gate official held the scabbard and tried to separate the rebellious people.

However, compared with the people who were densely blocking the city gate and trying to escape into the city as early as possible, the dozen or so Wei soldiers at the city gate were like a few drops of water in a barrel.

"kill!"

The first soldier of Wu Jun had already stepped onto the suspension bridge of the moat, his eyes filled with slightly crazy excitement.

Da Wu’s expansion of territory this time will be completed by them!

The panic-stricken look of the Wei people at the city gate made them feel extremely familiar.

The people of Wei in Shouchun are no different from those who were plundered at the border!

"Close the city gate, and quickly send someone to close the city gate!"

The guard general who rushed over after hearing the news immediately saw the situation at the city gate, and then saw Wu Jun getting closer and closer. His eyes were splitting, and he shouted loudly.

"General, don't close it!"

The Wei troops guarding the city were not fools, they had already tried it.

"There are too many people at the city gate, and the city gate cannot be lowered at all!"

"Then disperse them!"

"The comrades outside the city cannot squeeze into the city. There are not enough manpower outside the city gate to stop the people at all..."

"Traitor!"

Seeing the people being driven over by the Wu invaders, the guard resentfully chopped his knife on the city wall.

"General, the Wu thieves are working carefully! The common people are working hard!"

A sharp-eyed soldier pointed at the crowd at the city gate and said, "Look, our man has been stabbed!"

When the guard heard this, he quickly looked over.

Sure enough, at some point, a Wu thief dressed as a commoner suddenly opened his coat, pulled out a hidden white blade, and took advantage of the chaos to stab the city gate officers who were trying to bring order.

At a time like this, who would have expected that the panicked people around him would turn against him?

The city gate official looked at Wu Jun Xizuo in disbelief, and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, or maybe he wanted to remind him, but he could no longer say anything.

The life in the body is being lost at an extremely fast rate.

The cries that were so close to Chi Chi also became distant.

Everything becomes blurry...

Without the restraint of the soldiers outside the city, the people became more and more crazy.

"The thieves want to imitate the old events in Jingzhou and seize the city in white clothes?"

Tian Yu, who came a step late, looked extremely gloomy, and veins popped out in the hand holding the handle of the knife.

Even though he has been through many hardships, he still finds the matter in front of him extremely difficult.

On the contrary, the guard who arrived one step ahead of him was more determined than him.

But when he saw the guard's eyes flashing with a stern look, he said sternly:

"Come here, shoot arrows, shoot arrows at the city gate!"

When Tian Yu heard this, he turned around in disbelief and looked at the guard:

"General Yang, what did you say?!"

Wang Ling nominally asked Tian Yu to guard Shouchun, but how could he really hand over Shouchun to Tian Yu.

On this trip to the south, he not only took away most of the Runan soldiers brought by Tian Yu, leaving only a thousand soldiers for Tian Yu.

At the same time, he also asked his confidant Yang Hong to stay in Shouchun.

On the surface, he was assisting Tian Yu in defending the city, but in fact Yang Hong was the actual commander of the troops that Wang Ling stayed in Shouchun.

But seeing Yang Hong's eyes turned red, he said to Tian Yu word by word:

"I said, shoot the arrow!"

"General Tian, ​​if you don't make a decisive decision and continue to allow the city gate to remain in such chaos, the Wu invaders will surely follow the people into the city."

"Shouchun is an important town in Yangzhou. If it is lost, let alone Hefei, I am afraid that the entire Jianghuai River will fall into the hands of the Wu invaders."

"It may even endanger Xuchang," Yang Hong stared at Tian Yu and asked, "General Tian, ​​can you afford such a big thing?"

Tian Yu is no more than the governor of Runan, and he has only a thousand guest soldiers under his command. He came here just to follow orders.

Unlike the Wu army who went to Qingzhou to intercept the Wu army returning from Liaodong a few years ago, he had a scepter given by the emperor to control the armies.
