Just as the soldiers of Xiguan City were eating and drinking, Zhou Guangxun, the deputy governor appointed by Li Shouzhen, was discussing affairs with the deputy generals Wang Jixun and Nie Zhiyuan in Xicheng.

Zhou Guangxun said to Wang Jixun and the others: "According to the news sent back by Wang Santie, the commander of the Han army, Bai Wenke and Wang Jun, have already gone to greet Guo Wei and attended the military meeting. There is no general who is unified in Xiguan City. At present, Liu Ci, the highest official position, is just a brave but not a wise man, and there is no need to worry about it!"[]

Wang Jixun stepped forward and asked for an order, "Sir, I am willing to lead an elite army, each with long swords and axes, and quietly attack the Han camp at night! In the past few days, Wang Santiedi supplies free drinks and allows credit. Many of the cavalry patrolling the Han camp went to drink quietly and did not patrol the shore at all. This is a great opportunity for us to attack!"

Zhou Guangxun nodded repeatedly, "That's true. Since you volunteered, you will be responsible for the attack tonight, and Nie Zhiyuan will be responsible for the response. Let's give Guo Wei a warning and let him taste the power of our Hezhong Army!"

Wang Jixun said loudly: "Don't worry, sir, it is the duty of being loyal to the Lord. I will definitely let Guo Wei know that under our King of Qin (Li Shouzhen calls himself King of Qin) there is invincible in the world!"

After Wang Jixun retired, he selected a thousand strong soldiers, each holding long swords and axes, and distributed wine and food to make everyone full. It was not that he refused to choose more soldiers, but that the rafts he had laid were limited, and the ships he was receiving were even short of.

At two o'clock in the night, Wang Jixun led his troops to the south of the city. The Yellow River was like a belt, and was bypassing from the south of the city. Although the Yellow River flows slowly and the river channel is relatively smooth, it is still as thunderous as thunder! Even if you shout loudly under the city, you can't hear any sound across the river!

Zhou Guangxun had already ordered people to hang a raft from the top of the city. Everyone climbed the ropes and descended onto the raft, grabbing the oars.

Zhou Guangxun stood at the top of the city and shouted loudly: "I have sent Wang Santie to lead a hundred people to the Han camp to get rid of the Han army's scouts in advance! Everyone should fight for fear of fighting. Even if they die, the King of Qin will reward your relatives and treat your family with kindness!"

Wang Jixun stood on the leading raft and shouted to the soldiers: "Have you heard it all?! We will repay our lives with our Lord! Now that the Han army has been besieging the city for many days, the food and grass in the city are insufficient, and the food and fodder of the Han army is now piled up in this Xiguan City. As long as we burn them, we can win a great victory! If we advance, we live, we retreat, and we will die. The opportunity for victory and defeat is here! I, Wang Jixun, will charge forward to the death. Even if we die, we will never take a step back!"

Inspired by Wang Jixun, everyone drank a bowl of bold wine before leaving, and all shouted loudly: "I hope to fight to the death with the Lord!"

So, Wang Jixun was in front and everyone was behind, and quietly crossing the river on a raft. The water was surging, and the sound was like thunder, covering up the sound of crossing the river. The Han army patrol soldiers were either drunk at Wang Santie's place or lured and killed by the subordinates sent by Wang Santie!

Soon, Wang Jixun took people to cross the river smoothly and approached the Han army's camp. Someone asked whether to send people to stay to protect the rafts, but Wang Jixun ordered people to let them float away!

Wang Jixun whispered: "As long as we defeat the Han army, Nie Zhiyuan will take a boat to pick him up, and there is no worry about no return. If we can't defeat the Han army, what's the use of keeping people to garrison? It's just going back to the city and waiting for death!"

Everyone was encouraged one after another, and their morale was even more intense and they rushed towards the Han army with swords and axes. When they were about to arrive at the Han army camp, they met Wang Santie and others who were supporting him. They saw that these people were covered in blood and they didn't know how many Han army they killed.

Wang Santie bowed to Wang Jixun and whispered: "Sir, the Han army brings back at least hundreds of jars of wine from my wine shop. They will definitely drink too much tonight. It is a good time for us to launch! Finally, we will kill all the more than 300 Han soldiers who have been drunk in my wine shop, and there are more than 50 cavalrymen on the night side, but no one escaped. Now the horses are all in the woods over there, so please ask the general to get on the horse!"

Wang Jixun was overjoyed: "Santied, you have made your first contribution! After returning to the city, I will report to you to increase your position! Is the camp gate open?"

"It's open!" Wang Santie wiped blood from his face, "Just now, I pretended to enter the camp to deliver wine, and tricked him into opening the camp gate, getting all the more than a hundred people guarding the camp and killing them all! Now my elder brother and second brother are guarding the camp gate, waiting for the army to charge!"

"Okay! OK! OK!" Wang Jixun said three good words in a row, followed Wang Santie into the woods, and turned over to the horse. He raised his long spear in his hand and rushed to the Han military camp first. His personal guards also boarded the horse, followed closely and rushed into the camp gate.

Everyone didn't say anything and rushed into the camp. Seeing that the Han army was either sleeping soundly or drunk, no one resisted, they were immediately overjoyed. They all rushed forward with swords and axes, rushing forward, rushing while setting fire. Just as the wind was blowing, the fire was out of control!

Only then did the burned Han army scream and the slashed Han army struggle to death. When the Han army soldiers in the camp heard the movement, they left the tent to check. Because the situation was urgent, everyone had no time to put on their armor and picked up weapons and went up to meet them. Then Wang Jixun led his army to chop and kill them one by one! He saw him waving his iron spear, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, unstoppable!

At this time, Liu Ci heard the movement and did not bother to put on his clothes and armor and in his middle clothes, so he rushed out of the tent. He looked out and saw the fire burning, shining brightly as bright as day, and the generals looked around, at a loss.

Liu Ci was shocked, but he knew that he had to calm down now to avoid the morale of the army being dispersed and being ridden by the enemy! Anyway, the attacking troops sent by Li Shouzhen and Zhou Guangxun were going to cross the river, and they did not have many wooden boats, so the entire army should not be able to dispatch. In this case, although the situation was a bit tense, the Han army should have an absolute advantage. As long as they respond calmly, they would definitely win!

Liu Ci yawned and said to the nervous generals: "There are just little thieves, it's not worth making a fuss! You all return to the camp and command the army to come forward. I'll wake up and take a nap first, put on my clothes and armor before talking!"

Seeing that Liu Ci was very calm and calm, everyone returned to the camps and mobilized their troops to put out the fire. However, everyone was drunk and unhappy, and they were a little timid. Although they were infected by Liu Ci's attitude, they still did not dare to go forward to join the war.

Yan Jinqing, the envoy of the guest province, sighed and approached Liu Ci and whispered: "The thieves' clothes and armor are dyed yellow, and the fire is very conspicuous. It's just that everyone has no fighting spirit, which makes them so arrogant! Lord Liu, come up with a solution!"

Liu Ci had not spoken yet, and Li Tao, who was rarely drunk, shouted loudly: "There is no reason in the world that when peace is in peace, drink with a salary, and don't fight desperately when there is something?! Since we are the king's fortune, we should die! I am willing to take the lead and fight back, all the lords will follow me!"

After saying that, Li Tao led more than ten personal soldiers to the place where the fire was most fierce. At this time, Dong Zunhui led his troops to arrive. His subordinates were not drunk, very sober and were easier to gather. Dong Zunhui shouted loudly: "Whoever meets on a narrow road wins, and all the soldiers follow me to charge!" Five hundred soldiers followed closely and rushed forward over Li Tao!

Inspired by Li Tao and Dong Zunhui, everyone also brought their troops and rushed forward! Liu Ci and Yan Jinqing were immediately overjoyed!
