The Three Kingdoms: Steamed Buns and Pickled Cabbage, I Became the Emperor

Chapter 125: Run Ahead of Time Liu Xuande

"Third brother, be careful with your words!"

Guan Yu's face darkened and he shouted loudly.

Then Liu Bei looked outside the house and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was no one there.

During this period, Liu, Guan Yu and the other two had already noticed that Tao Qian was monitoring them.

On the one hand, Tao Qian invited them to come and resist Ye Chen.

On the other hand, I am worried about them.

This made Liu Bei very tired.

"Third brother, this is Xuzhou City, Tao Qian's territory, we still have to be more careful."

Liu Bei spoke out a word of instruction to Zhang Fei.

He is very clear about his current situation.

The number of soldiers under his command was only 3,000.

If he could repel Ye Chen, he might still have a chance to settle down in Xuzhou.

If you fail, perhaps the only option is to escape.

"Brother, I think there is something a little weird about Ye Chen's army."

After being scolded, Zhang Fei remained silent, while Guan Yu spoke worriedly.

Ye Chen kept trying.

It's really hard to guess.

He knew that time was not on Ye Chen's side.

Once Yuan Shu in Yuzhou had time, he would definitely attack the undefended Xia Pi County.

By then.

Ye Chen’s retreat was cut off.

There was no way he could keep dragging this on indefinitely.

"I can't see through it. I can't see through what Ye Chen wants to do!"

Liu Bei shook his head. He really couldn't see through it.

The only thing that can be guessed is that Ye Chen might be building some secret equipment to attack the city.

Because of this month.

When Ye Chen's soldiers attacked the city, they did not use any new siege equipment except for bringing out catapults.

He didn't believe that Ye Chen was so simple.

The only siege weapon was the catapult.

"Brother, you must be careful when you explore the camp tomorrow!"

Guan Yu spoke with a serious expression, and was particularly worried about Liu Bei's actions tomorrow.

"Clang clang clang!"

Just when several people were discussing.

A rapid burst of blasting sounds was heard.

In an instant, the expressions of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others changed!
"Let's go to the city wall!"

Liu Bei said this, and took the two of them and quickly headed towards the city wall of Xuzhou.

At the same time, countless people in the entire Xuzhou city were startled by the sudden noise.

Chen Mansion.

"Sure enough, tonight is not peaceful!"

Chen Gui noticed something was wrong during the day.

At this moment, Chen Gui heard the sudden noise and confirmed his guess.

"Order the whole mansion, no one is allowed to go out."

Chen Gui ordered the housekeeper.

In his opinion.

Ye Chen will definitely make a big move tonight.

just.

What exactly is the opponent's big move?

He couldn't guess it at all.

Mi Mansion.

"Brother, there's some noise outside, should we send someone to check it out?"

"No need, tell everyone in the mansion to stay in the mansion and not go anywhere!"

Looking at Mi Fang and his younger sister, Mi Zhu shook his head and gave instructions.

Ye Chen's army has been besieging the city for a month.

Now that they are suddenly taking action, it must be that something big is about to happen.

It's too dangerous to go out at this time.

For a while, many people from aristocratic families in the entire Xuzhou city were like this, waiting in the mansion.

Tao Qian in the governor's mansion rushed to the city wall of Xuzhou with a group of trusted officials.

"My lord, Ye Chen's army has moved."

As soon as he climbed onto the city wall, Tao Qian received bad news.

Ye Chen's army moved at night.

This was far beyond Tao Qian's expectations.

Could it be that Ye Chen was going to attack the city in the middle of the night? ?
You know, visibility is very low at night. It's hard to see the situation clearly.

Looking at the torches approaching in the distance, Tao Qian's heart was full of confusion.

Night is good for sneak attacks.

But this was the first time he had seen a city being attacked at night.

"Don't panic, as long as we stay calm, Ye Chen will definitely not be able to break into the city!"

"Let's see what tricks he plays!"

He wanted to see how Ye Chen's army would break through the city of Xuzhou when their vision was blocked.
And just when Tao Qian was preparing materials for defending the city.

On the other side, Ye Chen's army had already deployed all the catapults.

"My lord, all the catapults are in place!"

All 50,000 troops gathered here.

Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, Taishi Ci and others were split on both sides of Ye Chen.

He had long planned to have the army attack the city at night.

There is no other reason.

The soldiers in his army ate meat for every meal, so few of them could not see at night.

The soldiers had plenty of meat and rich protein, so fewer of them suffered from night blindness.

In ancient times, many soldiers did not have enough meat to eat.

Not only is he thin, but his physical fitness is also poor.

He also suffers from severe night blindness.

At night, the field of vision is greatly restricted.

On the contrary, this kind of situation happened much less frequently in his army.

Fighting at night is a disguised improvement for them.

This is one of them.

Second.

It is also to maximize the power of the catapult and No. 92 gasoline.

Think according to common sense.

There is actually not much difference between attacking during the day and at night.

Anyway, the soldiers' lives will be used to pay the price.

But with the killer weapon of No. 92 gasoline, there is a huge difference.

"My lord, the army has assembled, waiting for your order!"

Cheng Yu, who was standing aside, bowed and said at this moment.

Everyone's eyes were also turned to Ye Chen.

"let's start!"

Ye Chen nodded to Cheng Yu.

There was also a hint of excitement on his face.

He had been waiting for a month for the decisive battle and he couldn't wait any longer.

tonight.

No matter what, we must capture Xuzhou City!!
"Boom boom boom!"

Accompanied by bursts of drum beats.

A strong atmosphere of solemnity and murder was transmitted to the entire battlefield.

Tao Qian, Liu Bei and others who were standing on the city wall of Xuzhou were all startled when they heard the drumbeats, and had a bad premonition in their hearts.

"Master Tao, Ye Chen is attacking the city at night, I'm afraid there must be a trick!"

There was a gleam in Liu Bei's eyes, then he moved closer to Tao Qian and whispered.

"What does Xuande mean by this?"

Tao Qian looked at the other party in confusion, not knowing what Liu Bei meant.

"Mr. Tao, Ye Chen is beating the drum at the south gate. I'm afraid the east and west gates will be lost!"

Liu Bei looked at Tao Qian sincerely.

"Please give me five thousand soldiers and I will guard the gates on both sides for you."

Liu Bei's sincere words also made Tao Qian very moved.

indeed.

Just as Liu Bei said, we must indeed guard against Ye Chen's strategy of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west.

"Okay, the east and west gates will be handed over to Xuande!"

Tao Qian didn't think much about it. He waved his hand and directly gave Liu Bei 5,000 soldiers.

After receiving the order, Liu Bei, along with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, quickly walked towards the city gate.

"Brother, the battle hasn't started yet, why are we leaving early?"

Guan Yu asked in confusion.

Liu Bei just shook his head without saying anything to explain.

From the moment the drum sounded, he realized something was wrong.

That's why I asked for this job.

If Ye Chen really wanted to make a feint to the east and attack in the west, he would guard the city gates on both sides for Tao Qian.

If there was anything else, he would have to run away early.
