Chapter 397

Time! Time!

Xiahou said that he knew that the Jiangdong army would soon be chasing him, so every moment and every second at this time was very important.

The soldiers of Jingzhou who were as many as the ships were left behind, and Xiahou said that he quickly approached Chaisang with less than 5,000 remaining people.

Almost used to rush, without any concern, might be discovered by the Chaisang defenders. Xiahou said that he would take a group of half-tone soldiers who had not experienced a large war for a long time to go straight to Chaisang. On the way, several farmers who were resting in the fields pointed at them in surprise and said, "Jingzhou people!"

This group of soldiers in Jingzhou cannot fight tough battles, but they have seen big scenes. The Sun family in Jiangdong and the Liu family in Jingzhou must fight a battle every once in a while. The Jiangdong soldiers are strong and brave, and the Jingzhou soldiers are more and more food. Although the Sun family almost had the upper hand at the beginning, the strong logistics support made Jiangdong always return in vain in the end.

Therefore, the Jingzhou army really didn't choose the best choice to come here - the elite Cao army could not be mobilized without Cao's general order, but it was very easy for Jingzhou to surrender the army. Besides, these surrendered troops were all reorganized, which was more elite than the army under Liu Biao. They had no problem with sneak attacks, robbing families, and scaring ordinary people. And these were things they were very willing to do.

Xiahou said that he originally planned to go into the city if the guards of Chaisang were not very vigilant, so he would just touch the city and secretly occupy it. Unfortunately, although the city was not high and the walls were not thick, there was a wide plain around him, and there was no way to hide the traces of these 5,000 people.

Before they could get closer, the defenders on the city had already discovered them and closed the city gate in panic.

"Damn, these turtles are not good enough to give you a chance to make meritorious contributions." Xiahou said, aiming at the dark gate and jumping and cursing, the defenders seemed to be turtles and ignored them.

Although Zhang Feng and Guo Jia did not strictly stipulate in advance that this battle must be achieved, they went back empty-handedly. Isn’t this good opportunity for me to be a waste of money?

After going back, won’t your tragic third brother be laughed to death?

In addition to the group of robbers under his command, the people from Jingzhou who had more soldiers, Xiahou said he had an idea.

A group of soldiers dressed in Jingzhou rushed into a small village closest to Chaisang. Generally, if the city is a plain, they will plant arable land outside the city, and the people who cultivated land often live in these small villages outside the city. If there is any war, they will hide in the city for shelter.

The people of Jingzhou came too suddenly this time, and the villagers were not prepared at all. In addition, the harvest season had passed, so they were not prepared at all. They would encounter this group of extraordinary robbers under the city of Chaisang.

Xiahou said that as a general, there was another rebellious uncle like Zhang Feng, who naturally understood what it means to be a charity and not in charge of soldiers. He ordered all the food and property to be collected in the village, burned the food and taken away the property, and if he encountered resistance, he would kill him!

Anyway, I am from Jingzhou now, not Cao’s army!

There were only more than twenty families in the small village. When Cao Sun fought, the small amount of stored grain was collected. Where could there be any remaining grain? They were all living food. This group of old men from Jingzhou ignored the boxes and cabinets, took away valuable and easy-to-get things one by one. In the end, they drove everyone out of the house and took them to Xiahou Cheng to stand in front of him.

With a few screams, the only guys who dared to resist were all stabbed. Cao's army was very strict in normal discipline and would not attack ordinary people without ordering to kill people. But the situation is very special. In addition, Zhang Feng's special emphasis was "doing all means", and they are now impersonating the Jingzhou chaos army. Since Cao entered Jingzhou, there have been many such chaos army. Cao's army did not accept it and had no other way to make a living, so they became the mountain king who robbed the road.

"Hehe, I went down the mountain this time because there was not much food in the mountain. My brothers had any objections, so I went down the mountain to find some food to the villagers to survive. If I cooperate, I will not kill people easily. But if I dare to resist - Huh, you open your eyes and look at it. Even the city of Chaisang was closed, which was obviously afraid of me. Are your heads stronger than the city gate?"

If this "Bird King" who obviously had no hair in his hair was not even full of hair, it would be a bit like a slight look on his face, and the group of soldiers with Jingzhou accents were so fierce. Although these people who had never seen any world were not very scared. But a few lives were ahead, and they saw with their own eyes that the Chaisang City, which was leaning as a barrier to life, had closed the gates - this clearly had no way to live, and only listen to this "king".

Xiahou said that he pulled these people down to the city gate, and there was a Jingzhou soldier standing behind each of them, with his swords placed on the necks of the people. The defenders on the city also had relatives and friends living in these small villages. Seeing that the villagers were held by swords and dared not release the bows and arrows, they didn't know what to do.

"After hearing this, the defenders in the city, I just want to borrow some surplus grains and quickly open the city gates and let me take the grain and leave, and never kill a person." Xiahou said, put his hands on his hips and shouted, "If his brothers saw this, he looked like a rogue, I don't know what the shame was. "Give you a breath of time to consider. Once the time comes, I will kill people. You won't see your elders with your own eyes because of you."

There was an uproar in the city.

Since ancient times, there have been few people who threatened the other party to open the door with the people. Except for the King of Yue who used his own death row to commit suicide in front of the enemy's formation in the Spring and Autumn Period, I have never heard of anyone who did such a thing incredibly. The defenders suddenly became in love.

Originally, they knew that their troops were empty and they were ordered to defend the city. However, when the other party came out so shamelessly, any man would be filled with blood. They all shouted to open the door and rescue their fellow villagers, waiting for the orders of the defending generals of Chaisang.

Xiahou said that this is exactly what he called a bet!

Is it useful for him to rob grain and money? But in order to anger the defenders, he had no choice but to obey the solutions that his subordinates came up with. Knowing that the number of defenders was not large, the Jiangdong army was about to return to the army, and if they didn't rob them for such a little time, they were really afraid of doing nothing.

He bet right!

Zhou Yu went into battle personally, and Chaisang's power was wiped out, but now the person in charge of Chaisang is Cheng Pu's son Cheng Zi!

As the deputy governor of Jiangdong, Cheng Pu had extraordinary knowledge, so his son would naturally not be too bad. But when these people dressed in torn clothes and shirts, they obviously looked like a bandit, and he knew that General Zhou led his army to sweep Cao's army - it was already a foregone conclusion that Cao's army had any measures.

Cheng Zi ordered the door to fight, but he didn't believe that the bandits could not win. But when his men finally discovered that although they were a real Jingzhou native, they had excellent weapons only that Cao's army had, he realized that he had been fooled.

But the city gate is no longer closed.

Xiahou said that when the city gate was opened, he ordered the people to rush towards the city. The people naturally did not understand that their actions would cause chaos in Chaisang at this time. They just wanted to survive, and the defenders could not close the city gate at this time and lock the people who had just got a glimmer of hope outside the door. Even though they knew something was wrong, they could do nothing.

The soldiers of Jingzhou rushed towards the city gate with the people, and the men led by Cheng Zi could not compete with them head-on.

The reason why bandits are bandits but not called bandits is because they never chew tough problems.

Because Cheng Zi was arrogant and ordered the city gate to open and the soldiers to go out of the city to fight, he thought that the other party would rely on the people at most and dare not fight him.

When Xiahou said that he was wearing standard Cao army armor, he discovered a very serious problem - if Cao army appears here, wouldn't Chibi lose?

In shock and doubt, Cheng Zi was captured alive by Xiahou, who was eager to make contributions in just two moves.

The defenders were in chaos, and Cheng Zi was captured alive. Although there are still many Jiangdong officials in the city, they are not the ones who fight in battle. All those who can fight are on the front line, who will stay in the rear!

Xiahou said that he easily entered the city, and without saying a word, he asked people to set fires everywhere, burn houses, grains, and burn everything he could. The only thing he could rob dozens of horses was that he hurried out of the city - at this time, Jiangdong's return army should not be far away. Staying there would be death.

Xiahou said, with dozens of personal soldiers with horses, he observed Chaisang's movements from afar, and the rest of them fled far away with their pitiful robbery.

In fact, these people were already ready to be abandoned at the beginning. On the land of Jiangdong, before Cao's army came, they had nowhere to hide and had nowhere to go.

When Xiahou Cheng saw that Jiangdong's return ships finally approached the shore and most of them entered Chaisang to prepare to put out the fire, he also took out a signal flare and soared high into the sky, making a huge roar.

What is this signal?
