Chapter 63: One military advisor can defeat a million soldiers! Burn first and then cut, the embroidered pillow's mentality collapsed!
For a moment, Zhang Yun thought he was still in a dream and everything he saw was just a dream.

So he pinched his leg anxiously, rubbed his eyes hard, and then looked again with wide eyes.

The fire still burns.

Outside the mansion, flames shot up into the sky, illuminating most of the night sky.

In the sky, countless rockets are whizzing down from time to time.

Outside, there were soldiers screaming and shouting everywhere.

"General, it was the enemy who fired rockets and set our Rang County on fire."

"The whole city was on fire, and the brothers were in chaos."

The guards screamed in fear.

Zhang Yun took a deep breath, his body swayed, and he suddenly woke up.

Fell into a trap!
These three words immediately popped up in his mind.

Wei Yan did not flee because of fear of fighting, but pretended to be weak, abandoned the city and fled, allowing his army to occupy Rang County.

Then they launched a surprise attack on Rang County at night.

The means of surprise attack was not to assault the city gate at night, but to launch a fire attack!

This night attack was useless even though he had arranged enough guards at the four gates at Wen Pin's reminder.

"Is this Wei Yan so cunning?"

"How could he play tricks on me like this?"

Zhang Yun was so frightened and angry that he gnashed his teeth. He hastily put on his armor and took his sword, then mounted his horse and rushed out of the government office.

All I saw was a huge city with blazing flames everywhere and soldiers running for their lives in the streets.

"General Zhang, the enemy is indeed scheming. Fires are raging everywhere in Rang County, and our army is in chaos!"

Wen Pin rode his horse and held a sword, galloping over, shouting all the way.

The moment he saw Wen Pin, a barely perceptible shame flashed across Zhang Yun's face.
You know, just an hour ago, Wen Pin reminded him not to underestimate the enemy.

However, he boasted that he was well-versed in the art of war, and ignored Wen Pin's reminder, and was even more dismissive of Wei Yan.

Now, Wei Yan used a fire attack to slap him hard in the face.

When Zhang Yunzheng was feeling embarrassed and ashamed, he suddenly realized something was wrong and said anxiously:

"That's not right. There is indeed a fire attack strategy in military tactics, but can Wei Yan set my entire city on fire with just a few rockets?"

"There has never been such a precedent in the military tactics and battles throughout history, right?"

Zhang Yun's eyes widened again and he expressed his doubts.

Wen Pin's body shuddered, and he looked around at the fire, his eyes also filled with suspicion and confusion.

It is indeed impossible for just a few rockets to set the entire city on fire.

If fire attack is so easy, then siege warfare would be a piece of cake. But when a city is sieged, all you have to do is attack with fire. Where do all the strong cities and dangerous passes come from?
Wen Pin's eyes darted around, and he racked his brains but couldn't figure out the mystery.

"Crack!"

A burning attic in front collapsed with a loud bang, sending sparks flying towards our faces.

Zhang Yun and the others retreated in fear, and Wen Pin also hurriedly turned his horse and fled.

This shock dispelled all their doubts.

Wen Pin didn't have time to think about it anymore and said anxiously:

"General Zhang, we don't have time to think about this. If we continue like this, the whole army will be burned to death in the city."

"General Zhang, please give the order immediately and withdraw the entire army—"

The words haven't come out yet.

Zhang Yun came to his senses first and shouted:

"All troops, listen up! Quickly withdraw from the South Gate and retreat towards Xinye—"

Before the order was given, Zhang Yun rode away first.

"General Zhang, we can't retreat from the south gate!"

Wen Pin shouted to remind him, but Zhang Yun had no intention of listening and had already galloped away on his horse.

Seeing this, Wen Pin had no choice but to grit his teeth and hurriedly ride his horse to chase after him.

South gate of Rang County.

Wei Yan and four thousand infantry and cavalry were standing in the night, watching the fireworks show quietly.

The four thousand soldiers were all stunned, shocked by the power of the fire that burned the city.

"With a flick of the finger, I can defeat three times the number of enemies."

"One military advisor can really defeat a million soldiers..."

Wei Yan was sighing with emotion and looking at the fire with excitement.

Hu Che'er beside him was excited, but also a little worried, and couldn't help asking:

"Wen Chang, do you think that kid Zhang Yun would really escape from the South Gate?"

"Rang County has four gates. What if he escapes from another gate?"

Wei Yan didn't take his question seriously, but said confidently:

"Military Advisor Xiao said that with Zhang Yun's talent as a general, he would be in a state of panic and would want to escape back to Xinye."

"Xinye is in the south, so he will naturally choose to escape from the south gate without hesitation."

The words trailed off.

The South Gate of Rang County, which had been tightly closed, suddenly opened with a bang, and the suspension bridge was lowered.

Thousands of Jingzhou's defeated troops, like ants whose nests had been destroyed, pushed and shoved each other, scrambling to pour out of the city gates.

Hu Che'er's eyes widened, and he said with surprise:
"Military Advisor Xiao is truly amazing. Sure enough, he guessed it right again!"

Wei Yan sighed and sneered:
"Our military advisor Xiao is truly like Zhang Liang reincarnated."

"Is Kuai Yue worthy of being called the best counselor in Jingxiang in front of him?"

The taunting was over, Wei Yan's face was filled with murderous intent, and he held the long sword in his hand.

"It's time for us to take action, Brother Hu, let's join forces and defeat him again!"

"But remember, the military advisor has told us that these Jingzhou soldiers will all be our lord's soldiers in the future, so the fewer we can kill, the better." "In this battle, we must capture the leader first!"

Hu Che'er could not wait for Wei Yan's instructions, and rushed out on his horse with his sword in hand.

One hundred Liangzhou cavalrymen rushed out like giant black swords.

Wei Yan laughed wildly and also walked out with his sword.

The four thousand soldiers of Liu's army, who had been preparing for battle for a long time, came back to their senses from the shock, and their fighting spirit suddenly surged, surging forward like a tide.

Four thousand infantry and cavalry rushed towards the scattered and panicked Jingzhou army.

Under the city gate.

Zhang Yun used his whip to whip away the soldiers who were blocking his way and finally squeezed out of the city gate. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Recalling Liu Biao's expectations before he left, he wanted him to achieve great success so that he could reuse him with justification.

Who would have thought that this achievement would turn into a miserable defeat, which was a complete loss of face.

Didn't this disappoint Liu Biao's expectations?

"Although I lost Rang County, the casualties among the soldiers should not be too few. I can gather the defeated soldiers later and retake Rang County. At most, my merits and demerits will be offset..."

Zhang Yun was naturally comforted in his heart, and a bit of self-confidence rekindled on his originally panicked face.

Sudden.

The horn sounded and the sound of killing came from the south.

In the night in the south, countless soldiers of Liu’s army, like soldiers from hell and the underworld, suddenly rushed out from the darkness.

Although there were many soldiers in Jingzhou, their morale was broken and they had no intention of fighting.

In an instant, the fleeing Jingzhou army was scattered by Liu's army, with ghosts crying and wolves howling.

"ambush?"

"They actually have an ambush at the South Gate?"

Zhang Yun's face was distorted with shock, and the confidence that had just been rekindled turned into fear in an instant.

Only then did Wen Pin finally catch up on horseback.

Seeing the scene before him, Wen Pin stamped his feet and complained:

"General Zhang, how could the enemy only use fire attacks? They must have ambushed troops outside the South Gate, waiting to kill us when we flee to Xinye!"

"Why didn't you listen to my advice and rush to withdraw from the South Gate?"

Zhang Yun's body trembled and he suddenly woke up.

The feeling of shame washed over my body again.

"Why didn't you remind me earlier? What's the point of saying this now?"

"Quickly lead the army to help me break through. If anything goes wrong with me, you will be held responsible by my uncle!"

Zhang Yun would naturally not admit that he behaved inappropriately, but instead yelled at Wen Pin.

Wen Pin frowned, his heart was choked up, and he clenched his fists suddenly.

At that moment, he really had the urge to punch Zhang Yun.

He took a deep breath, but had to suppress his anger.

There's nothing we can do about it, since he is indeed Liu Biao's nephew.

Since I'm Liu Biao's employee, I have no choice but to endure this humiliation.

"Protect General Zhang to break through, let's go!"

Wen Pin immediately ordered his personal guards to escort Zhang Yun and charge towards the rebel army.

Wen Pin led the way and, relying on his martial arts skills, he defeated all of Liu's troops who were blocking his way.

A breakout is imminent.

"Wei Yan is here!"

"Where to escape!"

A loud shout sounded.

Wei Yan rode his horse and dragged his sword, cutting a bloody path like a killing god, and came whistling all the way.

"Wei Yan?"

"A nobody who betrayed Lord Jingsheng? I, Wen Pin, will come to meet you!"

Wen Pin was enraged, so he rode his horse and drew his sword, and rushed towards Wei Yan.

The two riders walked on the bloody road and collided with each other.

"throat!"

The two swords collided in mid-air.

The bodies of both of them shook slightly, and their blood and energy were shaken.

"This kid can actually block my sword?"

Wen Pin's face changed slightly, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Wen Pin, you are nothing special!"

Wei Yan snorted coldly, and the long sword in his hand turned into layers of iron curtains, covering the sky and the earth.

Wen Pin was looked down upon, his eyes were blazing with fire, and he immediately swung his sword like the wind and charged forward.

The two generals then fought in a group.

Zhang Yunze didn't care about Wen Pin, and immediately shouted at the soldiers on his left and right, protecting him as he bypassed the battle group and continued to flee southward.

The number of soldiers surrounding the front was decreasing, and Rang County was getting farther and farther away behind him. It seemed that he was about to escape.

Just as Zhang Yun was secretly rejoicing and letting out a long sigh.

"Where to escape!"

A beast-like roar sounded behind him.

Zhang Yun subconsciously turned his head, his eyes suddenly widened and his face twisted as if he had seen a ghost.

Such a huge warhorse was thrown into the air by someone and came roaring towards him!
