Chapter 2224 Night Attack

Gao Lan was embarrassed and apologized repeatedly.

Yuan Tan waved his hand and signaled that Gao Lan didn't need to care. In order to ambush Guan Yu, Gao Lan has worked hard these days, maybe he was caught in a cold at night. The matter has been talked about, so there is no need to waste time. It is better to let Gao Lan return to the camp early, so as to hurry up and sleep for a while.

After a few more words, Gao Lan bowed and retreated, and left the city from the nearest gate under the protection of several personal guards.

Sitting on the back of a horse, Gao Lan raised her head and looked at the stars in the sky. Thinking of the rudeness just now, before she could sigh, a meteor passed by the sky and disappeared in a flash. Gao Lan was shocked and subconsciously held her breath.

During the war, an abnormal celestial phenomenon appears, which is auspicious or omen, and who should it be?

Gao Lan was nervous and urged his guards to speed up and return to the camp. Those who had hoped for energy in the camp could divine and solve their doubts for him and see what this meteor symbolized. He looked around from the corner of his eyes, and the attendants were all attentive to their attention. No one looked up at the sky, and he did not notice the strange phenomenon just now.

Gao Lan didn't notice that after he left, a few steps away, a black shadow slowly arched from the canal beside the avenue. He leaned against the tree and stood up straight, looking at his back, and let out a soft voice.

"Gaolan." Although the black shadow's voice was soft, it showed an indescribable surprise. After a moment, he turned around and walked towards the south of the city.

——

At the end of the Yin hour, Guan Yu crossed the Zhu River and arrived at an unknown earth slope more than ten miles south of Bairen City. He temporarily stopped moving forward. The man was not untied, the horse was not untied, and he was on standby, and he seized time to eat and replenish his energy.

Guan Yu sat on the top of the slope and frequently looked up at the Bairen County Town in the distance. There were camps around Bairen County Town. The camp on the south side was less than five miles away from Guan Yu. You could vaguely see the outline and the lights on the camp. Listening carefully, you could also hear the sound of fighting in the camp. However, Guan Yu was not discovered so close, which means that this was an empty camp, just a suspicious soldier.

Whether all the camps are suspicious soldiers is a question Guan Yu wants to confirm at this moment. The soldiers are never tired of deceitful, and they are real and real, and no one can guarantee it. Xiahou Lan arranged a scout, but no one can guarantee whether the scouts can sneak into the camp, see the truth, and send the news back in time.

The war is imminent, and even Guan Yu is a little nervous, let alone others.

The sound of fine footsteps sounded, and Xiahou Lan came over with a man. "June." The two bowed to Guan Yu. With the slight light leaking from the lantern, Guan Yu looked at the man and smiled: "Thank you for your hard work." As he said that, he handed over the wine pot in his hand.

Zhao Xiaoyi was very excited, but did not refuse. He took the wine pot and bowed to salute. "Thank you Junhou." He picked up the wine pot and drank a lot of wine, then returned the wine pot to Guan Yu, and wiped his mouth with his sleeve. "Junhou, I saw Gao Lan, and I saw it with my own eyes, and it was real."

"No hurry, no hurry." Guan Yu calmed down and signaled Zhao Xiaoyi to sit down and talk.

Zhao Xiaoyi did not refuse, squatted in front of Guan Yu, and said what he saw. Zhao Xiaoyi was a hunter in the mountains and joined the army with Xiahou Lan. It took only a few months to really follow Guan Yu. Guan Yu loved the soldiers and was even more concerned about them, scouts who entered and left dangerous places. It was thankful for Guan Yu's care that Zhao Xiaoyi took the risk of sneaking outside Bairen City to find out the news and figured out the truth as much as possible.

"It's a coincidence. It was impossible to confirm that they were all dressed similarly and were tightly snug. But Gao Lan raised his head at that time and didn't know what to look at. Xiao Yi saw it real with a photo of the torch." Thinking of the scene at that time, Zhao Xiao Yi couldn't help but feel proud and looked at it. He had seen Guan Yu several times, but he didn't expect that Guan Yu still remembered him and called out the name, and was very excited. While he said, he drew out his short knife and drew a sketch on the ground. Gao Lan was in the camp east of the city, and there were five camps in the camp, which could house tens of thousands of people. In the past few days, he had inquired about the three camps on the outermost side. Apart from the small amount of troops guarding the camp, he did not find a large army. The two camps in the middle could not enter, and it was unclear.

After listening to Zhao Xiaoyi's report, Guan Yu sneered. Zhao Xiaoyi did not see a large number of people entering the camp and could not accurately estimate the troops in the camp. However, Gao Lan, who should have followed Yuan Xi to the north, appeared here and concealed his movements. The appearance of Bairen City at night was enough to illustrate the problem.

This is a trap, a trap targeting him.

Since you already know the existence of the trap, it doesn’t matter. What’s important is who is involved.

Guan Yu narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment. "Ziqing, you bring a sharp axe and fire-induced objects, lead the scout camp to ferry the water and inquire north. If possible, you can reach Wuchengmo and Qianqiu Pavilion and burn the ferry there. No matter how bad it is, you must burn the ferry on the ferry to stop more Wei troops from reinforcements. It doesn't take much time, just half a day. After noon, you act on your camera and you can retreat at any time to avoid unnecessary casualties."

"Here." Xiahou Lan bowed and accepted the order.

"Xiao Yi, I have to work harder for you." Guan Yu pressed Zhao Xiaoyi's shoulder. "I will appear in front of Gao Lan before dawn."

"It is Xiao Yi's honor to be able to guide the way for the king and the prince." Zhao Xiaoyi patted his chest and looked furious.

"Tell the whole army to set off!" Guan Yu stood up, pressed the sword on his waist, turned over and jumped onto the Chitu horse, and then took the Qinglong Yanyue Sword from Zhou Cang, held it in his left hand, and pushed the beautiful beard with his right hand. "Xiao Yi, lead the way forward."

The orders were passed one by one, like a stone falling into the calm water, causing ripples and extending to the distance. Zhao Xiaoyi took a big step and ran forward, Guan Yu kicked the horse and followed closely. Wherever he passed, the soldiers all cast a warm look and their morale was like rainbow. Zhao Xiaoyi was very excited, and his chest was high, but he was the general who ordered the attack.

"Go forward! Go forward! Go forward!" The soldiers growled in a low voice.

Guan Yu came to the team and, under the leadership of Zhao Xiaoyi, rushed to the camp east of Bairen City.

On the horizon in the east, a shallow white fish belly was revealed, and it was dawn.

——

I lie high and look up and I am sleeping with my clothes, and I can't sleep.

I saw a meteor when I returned to the camp last night. After returning to the camp, I called the witch who looked at the air. However, the witch said that he had been observing the celestial phenomena and had not seen any meteors. When asked others, they said they had not seen it. This surprised him very much. The meteor was so conspicuous, why didn’t anyone else see it, and only I saw it?

Is a mystery an illusion or an ominous sign that is only directed at me?

After a series of defeats, although Yuan Tan was named King of Wei and civil and military officials were promoted, everyone knew that with the threat of King of Wu, it was hard to say how long Wei could last. Today he became a general of Wei and might die on the battlefield of fighting against the Wu army tomorrow. When the emperor was defeated in Yanzhou, Dong Zhao had no way to retreat and had to lead his troops to surrender, and the king and ministers of Wei were even more anxious.

Jizhou seems to be particularly cold this year. It is already early summer, and the night cold is still rising. Gao Lan marched at night and caught a cold for a while. When he met Yuan Tan, he just sneezed. After returning to the camp, he became more and more serious. He was dizzy and sleepy, but he couldn't sleep. His mind was like a rumbling sea, and various scenes continued to emerge, and there seemed to be a golden drum ringing in his ears.

Suddenly, Gao Lan turned over and sat up, with his eyes open, and sweating coldly.

He thought of a possibility: No trace of Guan Yu was found in Zanhuang Mountain or Mainland Ze. Could it be that Guan Yu detoured behind him and advanced east along the south bank of Zhushui? There was Zhongqiu County and outside the exploration range of 30 miles, the number of scouts was originally small. If he was lazy and lazy, he would probably find it when Guan Yu came in front of him.

The more Gao Lan thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. He quickly turned over and sat up. While asking his personal guards to summon the relevant generals, he washed his face with the prepared cold water to make himself more energetic. He had just finished his armor, and the sound of rapid footsteps sounded outside the tent.

"Bang!" The door of the tent was pushed open, and a scout rushed in, clasped his fists and knelt on one knee. "General, Guan Yu is coming."

Gao Lan took a deep breath, blood rushing into his forehead, blue veins bulging, and twitching were pounding.

"Which direction? How far is it?"

"The south is five miles away from the camp."

"Sure enough." Gao Lan gritted his teeth, took off his sword from Lan Qi (weapon stand) beside him, rushed out of the tent, then climbed to the central army's watchtower, and looked into the distance. The soldiers in charge of looking at him had already seen the shadows in the distance, and panicked. When Gao Lan went upstairs, he hurriedly bowed.

"Why are you still standing there? Beat the drums, form a formation, and prepare for the battle."

"Here." The soldier responded subconsciously, rushed to the side of the tower, and gave a loud call. Because of his nervousness, his voice was sharp and thin. However, the drummers downstairs had heard Gao Lan's order, and immediately rushed to the drum and beat the drum hard.

The sound of war drums echoed throughout the camp, and countless soldiers who were sleeping soundly were awakened and rushed out of the camp.

While conveying orders, Gao Lan called two personal guards to rush to the city to report to Yuan Tan immediately. The situation was not clear, so don't leave the city easily, so as not to fall into the other party's plan. He had more than 5,000 people who were guarding the camp and could withstand for a while, at least they could hold on until dawn.

The personal guard hurried away. Gao Lan looked again and felt that it was too far from the camp gate, which was not conducive to commanding the battle, so he went down the central army's watchtower and went straight to the camp gate, preparing to command the battle nearby to boost morale, and directly observe the front line of the battle, so as not to waste time. He jumped onto the war horse and rushed to the camp gate with his personal guard. The soldiers in the camp tents on both sides heard the sound of war drums and were rushing out of the tent and lined up on the spot. Many people were not awakened yet, and were awakened in a daze. They couldn't figure out the situation, and the formation was scattered, and even rushed to the middle of the road to block Gao Lan.

Gao Lan was furious and ordered his guard to come forward to Qing Dao. He also waved his whip and whipped a soldier who rushed to the front of the horse. The soldier was caught off guard and screamed in pain. A guard stepped forward, waved his sword, and chopped down the screaming soldiers with one knife, splattering blood.

"Those who are in chaos will kill you! Those who are noisy will kill you!" The guards shouted in unison, suppressed you strongly, and cleared out a road.
