Three Kingdoms: Wolong's brother-in-law, tricking Liu Bei into seizing Jingzhou

Inside the city.

Zhao Guang traversed the dark tunnel and finally arrived at the foot of Baisha City.

The tunnel was dark and damp, filled with a pungent smell.

But Zhao Guang and his men showed no complaint or hesitation; they marched forward with unwavering resolve, driven by a single belief:
They captured the city gates and welcomed the army into the city.

After exiting the tunnel, they arrived at a secluded courtyard.

Hundreds of soldiers surged out of the ground, as if divine soldiers had descended from the sky.

Their appearance went unnoticed by anyone, as if they were an integral part of the city.

Zhao Guang led his troops out of the courtyard and headed straight for the east gate.

Their steps were light and quick, as if afraid of alerting the city's garrison.

at this time.

The Parthian army at the east gate numbered about a thousand men. Their eyes were fixed on the Han camp outside the city, completely unaware that a mysterious Han army had quietly crept towards them.

"Xiao Xiang's strategy is truly divine! The Parthian army was indeed completely unprepared!"
This is truly a stroke of luck! It seems we have a good chance of taking the city this time!

Zhao Guang looked at the Parthian army ahead and secretly rejoiced.

He knew his chance had come.

"Soldiers of the Great Han! Follow me and scatter these Parthians! Capture the East Gate!"

For the glory of the Han Dynasty! For Prime Minister Xiao! Charge!

Zhao Guang brandished his long sword and shouted with boundless pride.

At a command, the Han soldiers roared and charged toward the east gate.

Their faces were filled with anger and fighting spirit, as if they wanted to wipe out all their enemies.

Zhao Guang charged ahead, and with a swift stroke of his blade, he cut down a Parthian soldier.

Upon seeing this, the Parthian troops on guard of the city wall were thrown into chaos, with horns blaring and alarms sounding.

They all took up arms, trying to stop the Han army's attack.

It's too late.

The Parthian defenders hurriedly turned around, trying to stop the Han army's attack, but it was too late.

Zhao Guang led his elite warriors in a frenzied charge, unstoppable, and stormed the city walls.

The flashing of swords and the glint of blades in the night sky resembled streaks of lightning piercing the darkness.

The Parthian troops on duty were wiped out in an instant.

"Immediately light the signal fires, lower the sturdy drawbridge, and open the city gates!"

Zhao Guang's eyes widened, and his voice boomed like a bell as he shouted sternly.

The sound echoed in the night sky, causing the surrounding air to tremble slightly.

Upon receiving the order, the Han general dared not delay in the slightest and immediately took action.

They rushed to the beacon tower and skillfully lit the beacon fire.

In an instant, raging flames shot into the sky, and thick smoke billowed across the night sky, like a black dragon soaring into the clouds, sending signals into the distance.

Immediately afterwards, accompanied by a dull and loud sound, the city gate slowly opened.

The heavy city gates gradually parted to the sides, revealing a wide passage.

At the same time, the suspension bridge, pulled by the ropes, slowly descended to the ground with a loud "bang".

Zhao Guang faced the Han camp, a confident smile playing on his lips.

"Prime Minister Xiao, the East Gate has been successfully captured. Now it's up to you."

May you lead your army to conquer Baisha City in one fell swoop and display the might of our great Han Dynasty!

On the city wall, a group of suicide soldiers stood silently, their eyes fixed on the Han camp.

At this time, smoke signals suddenly rose atop Baisha City.

Thick plumes of smoke, like giant black pythons, rolled wildly in the night sky, blotting out the sun.

The soldiers were greatly encouraged by this sight.

Xiao Fang's killing intent surged even higher, and he fiercely raised the horsewhip in his hand:
"All troops, listen to my command! Charge into Baisha City!"

Let those Parthians see the might of our Han Dynasty!

"kill!"

"Kill!" "Kill!"

Above the Han camp, the sounds of battle roared.

The sound, like a thunderclap, exploded in the night sky, causing the earth to tremble slightly.

The shouts of the soldiers and the neighing of the warhorses mingled together.

The camp gates slowly opened, and the Han generals led their troops, surging towards the city gates like a tide.

Their footsteps were synchronized, like the heartbeat of the earth; their surging momentum was like a raging tide, unstoppable.

In the blink of an eye, the Han army's infantry and cavalry flooded into Baisha City like a torrent.

The brightly colored imperial flag with Chinese characters fluttered in the night wind as it slowly rose atop the city wall.

The Han army has finally succeeded in entering the city!
At this moment, inside the Marshal's Mansion in Baisha City, the flickering candlelight illuminated the confident faces of Kanla and Wen Hui.

They sat facing each other, sipping fine wine and discussing the war situation.

His words were filled with confidence in his own defenses and disdain for the Han army.

They believed that Baisha City was impregnable and that the Han army could not possibly breach it.

Just as the two were enjoying their drinks, a deafening battle cry suddenly rang out from outside the mansion.

The sound came like waves, one after another, getting closer and louder.

The two men's expressions changed instantly, and their previous drunkenness vanished without a trace.

Kanra leaped up suddenly, slamming his feet heavily on the ground with a loud "bang".

"Could it be that the Han army is attacking the city under cover of night?"

"How is this possible? Our defenses are so strong, how could they have broken through so easily!"

"Don't panic, Marshal."

Wen Hui quickly stood up and comforted him:

"Our four gates are heavily fortified, so we are not afraid even if Xiao Fang launches a night attack."

We will definitely be able to withstand the Han army's attack.

Kanra immediately got up, quickly put on his armor, and strode out of the mansion gate, preparing to rush to the city wall to check the situation.

He was filled with doubt, wondering what had happened outside.

Just then, a rider galloped in, the cavalryman's face filled with terror, and he shouted:
"Reporting to the Marshal, the Han army has breached the East Gate and entered Baisha City!"
The situation is extremely critical; please make a swift decision, Marshal!

"what?"

Kanla and Wen Hui exclaimed in unison, their faces showing disbelief.

The Han army actually broke into the city?
This was completely beyond their expectations.

"impossible!"

Kanra roared, his voice filled with anger and resentment:

"The Han army has only just begun its attack on the city, how could it possibly have already breached it?"

Our defending troops are all elite forces; how could they be so easily defeated!

Wen Hui also frowned, and asked in confusion:

"Even if the Han army attacks the city, how could the city gate guards possibly fail to hold it?"

There must be something fishy about this.

"Several hundred Han soldiers infiltrated the city and, with the help of those inside, captured the east gate!"

The scout said, weeping:

"That's why the Han army was able to capture the east gate and storm into the city!"

Kanla was startled and looked at Wen Hui, his eyes filled with confusion and bewilderment.

He couldn't understand how the Han army had infiltrated the city.

Wen Hui also exclaimed, "Baisha City is an impregnable fortress, how did they sneak in?"

The scout was speechless and had no answer.

He didn't know how the Han army broke through the numerous defenses and infiltrated the city.

So Kanra could only angrily curse:
"Xiao Fang is indeed cunning and treacherous; no wonder he destroyed the Yuezhi Kingdom."

This person is exceptionally intelligent; we must not underestimate him. (End of Chapter)
