Chapter 76: Flash attack on Fufeng

The Youfufeng County was established during the Han Dynasty and was collectively known as the Three Guards together with the Zuo Fengyi and Jingzhao Yin.

The troops led by Ma Chao marched day and night. A few days later, when he arrived in Hanxing County, a hundred miles away from Fufeng County, this small town with only 120 yamen guards was guarded by him. When he saw Ma Chao's army lined outside the city, he did not resist at all, so he descended in the wind. Ma Chao was happy that he led his army and horses to temporarily station in the city.

At that time, the scout sent to Fufeng during the day and reported: "There are currently three thousand soldiers and horses in Fufeng City, and the commander is Li Xian, the commander of the commander, and there are no signs of soldiers and horses in all counties."

"If you look for it again, don't neglect any situation." After hearing this, Ma Chao waved his hand and asked him to retreat.

"Sir, how should I fight this battle?" Ma Chao marched along the way, eating and living with Guo Jia every day. At this time, Guo Jia naturally heard the information reported by the scouts.

When he heard Ma Chao's inquiry, Guo Jia pondered for a while and said confidently: "Turn the snake out of the hole and wipe it out in one fell swoop."

"Mr. Is it true that sir..." Ma Chao's eyes lit up at his reminder.

"That's right." Guo Jia nodded and smiled.

When he received Guo Jia's affirmation, Ma Chao shouted: "Summon all the generals to come to the big tent."

"Ling Ming, you can take three thousand soldiers and horses to Fufeng with the county's first-level flag, and do this." Pang De, Gao Shun, and Gao Lan's third general just sat down. Ma Chao briefly introduced the situation and issued a general order.

"The last one will obey the order!" After Pang De got the plan, he took the order and left.

"Gao Shun, Gao Lan, you each lead an army and ambush outside the city. If there is an enemy coming, just let it go. When the signals in the city are together, the two armies will come out together, and be sure to wipe out the enemy." Ma Chao calmly sent two command arrows.

"Abide by the order!" The second general took the order and immediately retreated.

At the first update of the night, a horse came to Fufeng City and shouted, "Han Xing reported urgently, please open the city gate quickly."

The city gate defenders were wearing torches. Seeing that there was only one horse under the city, they didn't have much concern. Seeing that the other party was wearing his own soldiers' clothes, they shouted: "Let the suspension bridge and open the door!"

In the inner courtyard of the county magistrate's mansion, Li Xianzheng and his newly married concubine were performing a meat show, and suddenly shouted outside the door: "Sir, Han Xing is urgently reporting, please decide."

"Call me, let me chop you up." Li Xian yelled and walked out of the door with a look of dissatisfaction with desire.

"Where is the messenger?" Li Xian asked in confusion when he saw that only his own captain Wang Meng was there.

"Sir, when it was dark in the Han Dynasty, it was attacked by a group of about 500 bandits. The messenger broke through all the way, seriously injured and physically and mentally exhausted. He is now in the hospital for treatment." Wang Meng replied hurriedly.

"Then how did you prove that the messenger is true or false?" Li Xian was not a fool either, and asked coldly.

"Sir, my subordinates have asked. There is also the seal of the Hanxing County Magistrate in this letter. It should be wrong. There are only a hundred servants in Hanxing County, but now there are five hundred bandits attacking the city, so it is bound to be difficult to defend for a long time. You should also quickly decide." As Li Xian's confidant, Wang Meng's future lies in Li Xian. He naturally did not want to miss such an opportunity to make meritorious contributions. In his opinion, as long as five hundred bandits send 2,000 troops, they will be wiped out in one fell swoop.

"Hanxing is my territory, and I cannot let any mistakes. I will take my general order and order two thousand cavalry and set off overnight." Li Xian nodded and agreed after Wang Meng's persuasion, but in fact he could not tolerate it.

Because he and Niu Fu, the general who guarded Yongzhou, have never been able to get along with him. This time he was able to take charge of Fufeng, which was finally asked for him by his uncle Li Jue. If a county is lost, Niu Fu will inevitably cause trouble for him. In order to maintain this position, he naturally had to send troops.

At around the middle of the night, Li Xian led 2,000 troops and horses to run out of the city and rushed to Hanxing.

At this time, in the dense forest outside the city, there were eyes watching all this. This man was Pang De. At this moment, the three thousand cavalry he led were hiding outside the city. When he saw the troops leaving the city from afar, he couldn't help but shouted inwardly: "Li Xian was indeed fooled. It seems that the fake messenger is pretending to be a good person."

Pang De stayed in the forest until the fourth hour, and only then did he order more than a hundred elite soldiers, wearing soft armor and military uniforms of Hanxing officers, dressed in a mess, and came to the city gate with a few torches that were about to be extinguished.

"Open the city gate quickly. We are the defeated army of Hanxing, so let us go in." The goalkeeper at the city gate was sleeping in a daze. When he heard that it was the defeated army of Hanxing, he shone the military uniform with a torch. When he saw that it was his own army, he did not interrogate it and ordered the soldiers to open the city gate.

The goalkeeper was so careless, mainly because just now, the messenger who came to report the message was the one who personally led the county magistrate's office. Then the commander Li Xian led his army to rescue him. Obviously, the attack on Hanxing was naturally true, and now the defeated army returns, it is not surprising.

As soon as the city gate was opened, the more than a hundred soldiers rushed up immediately, waved their swords together, slashed the enemy soldiers who opened the door, and roared into the city gate outpost. Before they could react to what was going on, they became ghosts under the knife. When Pang De heard the sound of killing at the city gate in the forest, he knew that they had succeeded, and immediately shouted: "The whole army attacked!"

Three thousand iron cavalry moved, like a torrent, swept into Fufeng City. Pang De rode his sword and horse and shouted: "The left army occupied the east gate, the right army occupied the south gate, the front army occupied the west gate, the back army occupied the north gate, the central army followed me to the school ground, and no one was allowed to be let go."

"No!" The captains responded with a loud bang. Three thousand iron cavalry divided into five strands and rushed into the city.

When Pang De led 600 cavalry to the Fufeng Schoolyard, the soldiers who had just woken up from their sleep stood up in shock when they saw the soldiers falling from the sky. Pang De waved his sword and shouted: "Surrenderers are exempt from death!" When hundreds of soldiers in the schoolyard heard that they could be spared from death, they surrendered one after another.

This attack was without any suspense. Then Pang De escorted all the prisoners to the school grounds for custody. Then he formed a patrol guard to be responsible for the abolition of the people and the illegal matters. Before leaving, Pang De treated them seriously and said, "You are prohibited from disturbing the people when you inspect. If you encounter someone who violates the military order, you can take action first and then report!

"Abide by the order!" Three hundred soldiers responded in unison.
