Chapter 624 Chase?
"Why is Cui County lost? Cough cough"

Xiang Tu wanted to ask about the situation, but he didn't expect the pain in his chest to be unbearable, and his forehead was dripping with sweat. The generals hurriedly exclaimed: "Go to the doctor!"

"No, it will be fine in a while!"

Xiang Tu struggled to stop him. The guards lurking in the city hadn't been searched out yet, which showed how deep the guards were hiding. If the guards knew that the doctor was going to the prefect's mansion, they would be able to deduce that he was in poor health. Not what Xiang Tu wants to see.

"General, if you continue like this, your health will definitely fail!"

A general advised.

"Okay, don't need to say too much, if I say it's okay, it's okay!"

Xiang Tu waved his hand to stop, "What happened in Cui County?"

A general replied: "A total of more than a dozen defenders from Cui County fled to Licheng. They couldn't explain anything. They only knew that the enemy broke through the city suddenly and no one organized defense, so they broke up and fled. .”

"Are you sure it's Cui County's defenders?"

Xiang Tu asked.

The general said: "I'm sure, the accent of Cui County is different from that of other places. It is very difficult to imitate the accent of Cui County."

After hearing this, Xiang Tu wrinkled his forehead, and suddenly thought of something, he hammered his hand, and shouted: "Oops, the Han army outside is just bluffing, I'm afraid there are not many people at all, we have been fooled by Zhang Fei!"

"Although Cui County is only a county seat, the city walls are quite tall and the defenses are relatively strict. Moreover, Cui County is mostly local people. It is impossible for spies from Hebei to infiltrate like Li City. How can Zhang Fei rely on 1 horsemen? Conquering Cui County? Unless."

"Unless the big clans in the county open the city gate and let the Han army enter the city, the only one who can open the city gate of Cui County is the Cui family." A civil official said.

Then everyone looked at Xiangtu in the hall.

Xiang Tu said slowly: "The Cui family has established a foothold in Cui County for several generations, and Duke Qi handed over the entire Cui County to the Cui family, so the Cui family has no reason to turn against the water."

Everyone obviously understands this truth. If they turn against the water, what will Cui get?

How could Liu De let the Cui family take charge of a county?
How could Liu De let several members of the Cui family enter the center?
Don't even think about it!

But if it wasn't for the Cui family to open the city gate, other small families wouldn't have such strength!

The city gate guards are all Cui's cronies.

A civil official put forward an idea: "General, I think the possibility of Cui's surrender is very low. If Cui's surrender, how could these defenders flee in all directions?"

What the civil official said was very reasonable, but some people still questioned: "It may also be done on purpose to confuse the public!"

The public said that the public is right, and the mother-in-law said that the mother-in-law is right. They couldn't argue at all, so they could only turn their attention to Xiang Tu again.

At this time, Xiang Tu misses the long history Zhou Kuiping very much. Without Zhou Kuiping's assistant and think tank, Xiang Tu felt that everything was very difficult to deal with.

"General, let the last general lead his troops to the enemy camp outside the city to find out!"

Seeing that Xiang Tu was frowning and thinking hard, a general suggested.

"That's all I have to do, be careful!"

There is no other way for Xiang Tu, and this is the only way, otherwise waiting is not an option.

Xiang Tu didn't dare to send troops to take back Cui County. After all, he didn't know anything about the situation. What if the enemy had already ambushed halfway?
Although the geographical location of Cui County is important, as long as Licheng is not lost, everything is trivial. If Licheng is lost, Cui County belongs to the Han army or Xiang army, and it has no meaning.

For the sake of safety, this general named Cheng He led his troops to attack Zhang Fei's camp outside the city when it was dark.

There are not many soldiers and horses led, but there are nearly 3000 people.

Holding a longbow, Cheng He looked at the sentry on the sentry tower in Zhang Fei's camp. Cheng He directly tightened the bowstring, and the arrow spun rapidly, hitting the sentry without any accident.

Under Xiang Tu's command, Cheng He is famous for his superb bow skills.

Cheng He waved his hand and led his troops to rush over.

"boom!"

The wooden gate was shattered abruptly, and Cheng He was the first to enter the camp with a big knife in his hand. When he saw the quiet camp, Cheng He snorted coldly: "Sure enough, Zhang Fei didn't leave any soldiers here at all. ?”

"is it?"

A voice that exploded like thunder made Cheng He's mind go blank for a moment.

Cheng He was a little overwhelmed by the flames around him.

what happened?
"Report! General, the enemy camp outside the city is on fire, and there are very loud shouts of killing!"

A sentry hurriedly reported to Xiang Tu.

"what!"

Xiang Tu raised his head and said in amazement, "Could it be that Zhang Fei's troops haven't retreated?"

"General, do you want to send troops to rescue General Cheng?"

The sentinel hurriedly asked.

"Send someone. Wait and order General Deng to assemble the troops first, so I will go to the top of the city to check the situation."

After Xiang Tu finished speaking, he got up directly, but didn't want to, his head became dizzy for a while, and he fell directly on the desk.

"General!"

The guards and officials around him all exclaimed in surprise.

"Go find a doctor!"

One shouted.

"Yes!"

The guards on the top of the city were furious, because the shouts of killing in Zhang Fei's camp were much weaker than before, and Cheng He's situation became more and more critical.

"Why hasn't the commander arrived yet?"

The guard, General Deng, cursed directly.

Said Cao No, said Ling Bing, and Ling Bing came to General Deng out of breath.

General Deng hurriedly asked: "General, can someone send troops to support?"

"It's the general who asked you to assemble your troops"

Ling Bing faltered and said.

"That's good, let's go to the army!"

After General Deng finished speaking, Fu Jian was about to leave, but was stopped by his soldiers, "General Deng, General, I have something to say."

General Deng immediately furiously said: "Why don't you finish talking together if you have something to say, the military situation is urgent now, who is with you here, and next time, I will cut off your head first!"

Ling Bing was very frightened, and hurriedly said: "General Deng, the general is saying that you gather your troops first, and wait for him to come to the top of the city to check the situation before making a decision!"

"Where is the general?"

"General, the general fainted"

The soldier beeped softly.

"what!!!"

General Deng turned pale with shock: "You mean the general fainted!"

The surrounding soldiers also heard General Deng's roar, and suddenly it was as if vegetables fell into a frying pan and exploded into a ball.

General Deng was very annoyed, and knew that he had said something wrong, so he quickly ordered to stop everyone's discussion.

Then he pointed to the flames outside the city and asked the soldier, "Whether the general can save you or not?"

Ling Bing said with a bitter face: "How can a villain know this!"

"hateful!"

General Deng boarded the top of the city again, looking at the fire outside the city, the shouts of killing gradually faded, General Deng smashed the wall and said angrily: "It doesn't matter, come here, gather troops and horses, and leave the city!"

When Xiangtu woke up, what he saw was that he had gone through a great battle, and even the generals were more or less injured.

Xiang Tu was looking at the other side, and the most famous doctor in Licheng looked at him worriedly. The doctor was about to say something, but Xiang Tu waved his hand to stop him. Xiang Tu looked up at the generals and asked, "How long have I been in a coma?" , what happened during this time?"

A general replied: "General Cheng's troops were surrounded and wiped out by the Han army. General Deng led [-] troops to rescue them, but they were also caught in an ambush. General Deng died in battle, and then Zhang Fei led his army to attack the city. We managed to hold the city. "

"Who let him go!"

Xiang Tu was furious and scolded.

The generals were silent.

Xiang Tu let out a sigh of relief, knowing that now is not the time to pursue General Deng, not to mention that General Deng has already died in battle.

Xiang Tu said to everyone: "Qi Gong is now organizing an army to rush into Danzhou from the northwest of Dongzhou. Our Licheng is the defense of the northern part of Dongzhou. We must not lose it. Now we have lost [-] soldiers, and there are only one in the city. There are more than ten thousand people, so you must never go out of the city to meet the enemy, and the generals must bear in mind."

"Here!"

The generals obeyed Xiangtu's order and left the hall.

The only thing left was Wulugu who was guarding the door, and the doctor in the room. Xiang Tu breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked the doctor, "Doctor, tell me!"

The doctor thought for a while, and then said truthfully: "General, I just tried it with silver needles, because you are so anxious, and you have worked hard for days, the toxins have covered your whole body, and I can't do anything!"

Xiang Tu didn't look panicked at all, but asked very calmly: "How long can I last?"

"General."

Xiang Tu asked again: "How long can I last?"

The doctor hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Relying on medicinal herbs to suppress the toxins on the general's body, the old man estimates that it can last for half a month."

Xiang Tu closed his eyes, and murmured, "It's a bit small, but enough."

The doctor looked at it, shook his head and sighed, and retreated.

Taishan Mountains, where Danzhou, Luzhou and Dongzhou meet, the mountains are quite dangerous. The army led by Huang Zhong has been confronting the Qi army for several days. Because the Qi army occupies the terrain, Huang Zhong has been unable to conquer it several times. Can set up camp and stand in a stalemate with the Qi army.

Liu Rengui suggested to Huang Zhong: "General Huang, why don't we take a detour, the Qi army relies on the terrain, we can't break through their obstruction for a while."

Huang Zhong said: "But if we make a detour, it will inevitably give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of!"

"There will be a plan in the end, you can try it."

"General Liu, but it doesn't matter!"

"This way. Let's"

Huang Zhong's order was quickly conveyed, and the Qi army also discovered the traces of the Han army's retreat.

"To chase or not to chase?"

General He Yi of the Qi Army asked.

"If you chase, I'm afraid that the Han army will deliberately ambush, but if you don't chase, this army will get in the way if the alignment is public."

A general replied.
