Chapter 399 The enemy's iron pagoda? ! (Thanks to Yuyu and Momen Yizhidou for their four monthly tickets~)

The sudden change made the expression of another guard who was also sleepy change immediately.

He quickly squatted down and shook his comrade's body vigorously, but he didn't move at all, as if he had lost his life.

He immediately used his fingers to feel the other person's breath... Fortunately, the breath was still there.

But even so, the other party shouldn't be sleeping so soundly. I pinched his ears with my fingernails, but he didn't react at all!

The guards vaguely felt that something was wrong and it was necessary to report the matter to General Wei Xu.

But just as he stood up, a strong feeling of dizziness hit his head and he almost couldn't stand.

It was just a suspicion just now, but now I can conclude that there is a problem!
He supported himself on the wall and forced the door open.

To his surprise, the creaking sound of the door opening did not wake up General Wei Xu who was lying on the bed.

The guard tried hard to walk towards Wei Xu, but with every step he took, he felt dizzy.

His feet felt like they were stepping on cotton, or like they were stuck in a quagmire. After just two or three steps, he fell to the ground uncontrollably.

Even the noise of falling was not enough to wake Wei Xu up.

Even though Konoha could feel his entire body's senses rapidly fading.

But he knew that this was the key that would affect his life and death and even the survival of the entire army!

He must wake up General Wei and make him respond!

With this single and strong thought in mind, Jinwei finally crawled to Wei Xu's bed, and using his last bit of strength, he slapped Wei Xu in the face!

The guard, having exhausted all his strength, suddenly fell into coma.

Fortunately, the slap on Wei Xu's face finally woke him up from his deep sleep.

Wei Xu suddenly opened his eyes and sat up, then he saw that his guard had fallen beside his bed.

Wei Xu was startled and quickly grabbed the sword on the bedside.

He then poked the guard's body with the scabbard, but found that the other party did not react at all.

Wei Xu reached out and felt the other person's breath. After confirming that the other person was still breathing, he calmed down a little.

Then he immediately stood up and wanted to check the situation outside the room.

However, as soon as he stood up, a strong feeling of dizziness invaded his brain, causing him to fall back onto the bed.

Wei Xu finally understood why his two guards fainted...

It is very likely that there is something wrong with the meat they purchased from the people tonight!
Fortunately, Wei Xu was a brave general and his physical fitness was much better than that of ordinary soldiers.

In addition, he realized that the crisis could come at any time.

Stimulated by adrenaline, he finally overcame the discomfort in his body, stood up and walked out of the room.

I saw another guard lying outside the door.

An angry Wei Xu immediately rushed to the other end of the room, intending to question the people of this family whether they had put drugs in the food.

However, when he kicked open the door, he found that there was no one inside!
Although there was no one there, this undoubtedly confirmed Wei Xu's guess!

Wei Xu rushed out of the house immediately and found that several soldiers outside the house had also been paralyzed and fallen to the ground.

Wei Xu immediately picked up his spear and went to the country road, where he finally saw the night patrol led by Huang Gai.

Huang Gai saw Wei Xu, who looked flustered, and asked hurriedly:
"General Wei, what happened?"

Wei Xu immediately told the other party what had happened to him.

Huang Gai looked at Wei Xu with a sharp gaze and said seriously: "This must be a trap set by the enemy! We must immediately concentrate our forces to prevent the enemy's surprise attack!
“As for the villagers, I’m afraid they are not good people either.

"Kill them as soon as you see them to prevent them from having a negative impact on our army!"

Wei Xu didn't want to be soft-hearted at this moment, so he nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, Wei Xu and Huang Gai immediately gathered all the soldiers who were still conscious together.

Of the original 20,000 troops, only 13,000 were still awake, and the remaining 7,000 were all in a coma.

The 13,000 people who were awake were not in good condition either. They were either dizzy or weak in their limbs.

The combat effectiveness is undoubtedly greatly weakened...

As for the people who originally lived in Daze Township, they didn’t see any of them at this moment!

Apparently, while their own army was resting, this group of civilians evacuated to a safe place by some unknown means...

Just when the soldiers had basically gathered, the sound of galloping horses suddenly came from outside Daze Township!
Wei Xu's face changed and he quickly ordered his soldiers to be on high alert.

At this time, a team of 600 people covered in heavy armor rushed towards them quickly.

Looking at this very familiar team, Wei Xu's eyes showed a hint of surprise:
"Isn't this the Iron Pagoda? It turns out that reinforcements for our army have arrived!"

Just as Wei Xu was about to step forward and greet the Iron Pagoda, Huang Gai's face changed, and he quickly pulled Wei Xu back and said:
"Something is wrong! Our Iron Pagoda is led by General Wei Yan and Han Dang.

"They are still guarding Yingchuan at the moment, how come they suddenly appear here?"

Wei Xu looked at Huang Gai in disbelief:

"You mean... this is the enemy's Iron Pagoda? The enemy can build an Iron Pagoda? Are you sure?!"

Huang Gai calmly analyzed:
"My lord once said that the craftsmanship of making the Iron Pagoda is not complicated.

“With Zhuge Liang’s talent, there is a chance that it can be replicated.

"These hundreds of Iron Pagodas are definitely enemy troops in disguise!

"General Wei, please do not hesitate and give the order to attack immediately!

"Otherwise, once they get close to us, it will be difficult for our army to inflict any casualties on them!"

After hearing this, Wei Xu was still a little hesitant.

What if these are really friendly forces? Wouldn’t that mean they were accidentally injured?

Seeing that Wei Xu was still hesitating, Huang Gai said anxiously:
“Since the general is worried, why not shoot them with ordinary bows and arrows first? They can’t be hurt anyway.

"If they were really friendly forces, they would definitely respond and slow down.

"If they don't slow down, they must be the enemy!"

After hearing Huang Gai's method, Wei Xu finally agreed and immediately ordered archers to shoot at the six hundred iron pagodas.

At this time, the leading Iron Buddha shouted:
"Don't do it, we are friendly forces!"

Having said that, the speed of this group of Iron Pagodas did not slow down at all!
Huang Gai repeatedly said to Wei Xu:
"These must be the enemy! General Wei, please use the gunpowder cans to attack them immediately!"

Faced with the veteran's repeated urging, although Wei Xu was unhappy, he also knew that the other party had rich combat experience.

Without further hesitation, he immediately ordered the front-row soldiers to pick up cans of gunpowder and throw them at the approaching enemy!
Gunpowder cans are their most important weapons now, and basically every army going on a large-scale expedition will bring some with them.

As Xia Pi City was an important border town, Lu Bu had naturally sent a lot of gunpowder jars to it a long time ago.

This time when they came to support Lu Bu, Wei Xu and his men brought with them four hundred gunpowder cans!
