Three Kingdoms: Salted Fish's son-in-law was overheard by Cao Cao

Chen Gong was a little confused, and waved his hand to let the spies leave.

Zhang Liao reminded: "Military division, could this be Cao Jun's plan?"

Chen Gong hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head and denied Zhang Liao.

"No, Cao Jun's counselors are doing things in a stable manner, and they won't take such a big risk."

"Even if Cao Jun uses tricks, we have no way out at this time. Let's wait until the general returns to make a decision."

After Zhang Liao retreated, Chen Gong rubbed his temples and thought for a long time but still couldn't get anything.

That night, at the beginning of Haishi, the guards on the north gate of Xiapi suddenly saw smoke and dust rising in the distance, and it seemed that someone was running towards the city gate.

When those people gradually approached, the guards found that the people who came running were divided into three waves.

There were about 300 to [-] people running in the front, and everyone was wearing excellent armor. Although the armor was damaged, the guards could still recognize it as the trap camp at a glance.

Followed by soldiers in Lu Bu's uniform, those people were obviously not in the camp. The soldiers were neatly lined up, scattered like deserters.

The last one is far away, but it looks like Cao Jun's side.

"Didn't it mean that General Gao Shun succeeded, why did he fall into the camp and suffer such heavy losses?"

"You care so much, why don't you report it to the sergeant quickly."

"Hey!"

The little soldier agreed, and dashed down from the city wall to Chen Gong's residence.

It didn't take long for the soldiers trapped in the camp to carry a person to the city gate, and shouted at the guards who came to the gate to open the gate.

The defenders on the city wall looked at Gao Shun who was unconscious, and wanted to open the door but were afraid of taking responsibility, so they did not move.

The sergeants in the trapped camp below immediately cursed, and some people asked to put down the hanging basket, at least to pull General Gao Shun up for treatment as soon as possible, or his life might be lost if it was too late.

Looking at the injuries on Gao Shun's body and the blood oozing from his armor, the defenders finally decided to open the door and let the brothers who were trapped in the camp come in quickly.

The gatekeepers in the city were not completely out of their minds, they called all the soldiers under their command, and filled the gates of the city, leaving only a small path that could only be passed sideways by one person.

Seeing the city gate slowly open, the soldiers trapped in the camp hurriedly squeezed in, shouting as they squeezed.

"Come in quickly, Cao Jun will be here soon."

The unknown soldiers in the city panicked when they heard that Cao Jun had killed them. Some wanted to rush to the city wall, and some wanted to close the city gate.

Zhang Liao arrived just as the city gate was in chaos. Seeing the chaos at the city gate, Zhang Liao shouted, "Who told you to open the gate, please close it quickly."

Someone replied at the door: "It's General Gao Shun, the general is seriously injured and quickly call the doctor."

Zhang Liao frowned, and saw a large cloud of smoke and dust rising from the distance through the opened door, and his heart trembled violently.

I am afraid that so many people are not Gao Shun's soldiers and horses. Could it be that Cao Cao killed them so quickly!
Thinking of Zhang Liao, he no longer hesitated: "Close the city gate immediately, and kill those who disobey on the spot. There must be no mistakes."

After yelling, he waved his hand, and the soldiers behind him raised their knives and squeezed into the crowd. When encountering obstacles, they immediately swung their knives and slashed without any hesitation.

Seeing that the city gate cannot be cheated, the trapped camp gathered together to form a small battle formation, nailed it to the gate and began to kill the guards next to it.

The action of falling into the camp immediately caused the people around to scream, followed by the screams of tragic death.

At that moment, there was even a circle of open space around the trapped camp, but it was filled up again immediately.Those who filled in were prepared, knowing that these people might not be their own brothers, so they no longer worried about the two sides fighting together.

Fighting at close range, life and death are only in an instant, and there are more than a dozen corpses at the gate of the city that opened very quickly. .

But soon, Zhang Liao's subordinates also entered the battle circle, culling wave after wave of people who were trapped in the camp and quickly retreated.

Seeing that the situation at the city gate was stable, Zhang Liao asked the lieutenant beside him to direct the battle, while he climbed the tower to look out.

When Zhang Liao saw that there was actually a "rebellious army" of 600 or [-] people a few hundred meters away, he immediately ordered people to shoot arrows outward to stop the second wave of rebellious troops.

Seeing the arrows being shot at them from the top of the city tower, those rebels yelled and waved their knives to block the arrows. They still ran towards the gate of the city, and their speed became faster and faster, and they seemed to charge.

At this time, Chen Gong had also come to the city wall, looking at the opened city gate, the charging battle formation, and the approaching army in the distance, Chen Gong only felt cold all over his body, his hands shivering in his sleeves.

"Quick, quick, shoot arrows into the gate, shoot all the enemies to death and close the gate. If these 600 people rush to the bottom of the city, I'm afraid the gate will never be closed."

"But, there are still our people in the doorway?"

"Let the guards come out, or they'll all be shot! Go!"

'Here' the soldiers immediately ran to deliver the order.

Zhang Liao glanced sideways at Chen Gong, and said leisurely, "The military advisor made a mistake."

Knowing what Zhang Liao said, Chen Gong sighed heavily: "It is indeed a wrong calculation. I didn't expect that none of the 6000 people escaped."

When the two were talking, there was a sudden shout from the gate of the city under their feet, and then the soldiers of Cao Jun, who pretended to be trapped in the camp, gave up guarding the gate, lit a fire and rushed into the city.

After taking off the armor, they were also wearing the military uniform of Lu Bu's army inside. More than 100 people mixed into the city guards and hacked at will, even breaking up the team guarding in front of the city gate.

These Cao troops mixed into Lu Bu's army and fled into the city. Even Chen Gong couldn't deal with it for a while, so they could only make people rush to put out the fire and close the door.

In the chaos, the trapped camp that rushed into the city unexpectedly rushed out again, and when the gate was about to close, they threw several cans of lit vegetable oil and lamp oil onto the gate.

The city gate was instantly ignited, and the defenders could no longer put out the fire, and the 600-man army outside the city also rushed to the city gate after sacrificing more than 100 people.

Chen Gong sighed, as if he aged ten years overnight.

Yi Xing turned to Zhang Liao and said, "Wen Yuan, now you and I have two choices. One is to escape and meet the general, or the other is to hide among the people and wait for the general to return, and join the general inside and outside."

"Which one do you choose?"

Zhang Liao thought for a while, "I..."

"Report—report to the military division and general. The spies found that a large number of Cao troops approached outside the other three city gates. We... were surrounded."

Zhang Liao shook his head and smiled wryly: "Military division, you seem to have no choice."

At this time, Chen Gong calmed down instead: "Cao Cao surrounded Xiapi, perhaps to lure the general back, but the main purpose is to kill me."

"Cao Cao's bandits are treacherous and vicious. Of course I will not grant Cao's bandit's wish. Xiapi can't bear another massacre of the city, so Cao Cao will definitely not attack the people. We will be able to escape by hiding among the people."

Zhang Liao was unmoved: "Then please do as you please."

Chen Gong was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Zhang Liao in confusion.
