Yuan Shao was on the top of the city, looking into the distance. In the distance, the Zhou army was building a walled city.

It was obvious that Zhou Cheng wanted to surround Jinyang City.

The location where Zhou Cheng built the camp happened to be beyond the reach of the trebuchet.

In other words, unless Yuan Shao sends troops out of the city, he cannot effectively prevent Zhou Cheng from building a camp.

What is even more despicable is that most of the civilians who built the camps were captured from various counties in Taiyuan.

Although the daily ration is only one liter of millet, it is good to survive.

Ju Shou, Tian Feng and others followed Yuan Shao, and they were all worried.

Once the construction of the Dazhai outside the city is completed, they will be trapped in Weng Zhongzhong.

At this time, Yan Liang said:"My lord, I am willing to lead the army to burn down the Zhou traitor's stronghold."

Wen Chou also said:"My lord, let me lead the troops out of the city." When Yuan Shao heard that Yan Liang and Wen Chou took the initiative to ask for a fight, a smile finally appeared on his face. Said:"With you two here, I have nothing to worry about."

Immediately, Yuan Shao ordered Yan Liang and Wen Chou to lead three thousand troops each and go out of the city to burn the camp that Zhou Cheng was building.

There are only more than 10,000 cavalry under Yuan Shao's command. This time, they are almost half of them.

However, behind the camp, there were Zhou army's crossbowmen hidden.

The cavalry archers of the Marksman Battalion are also hiding behind the camp, waiting for Yuan's army to break out of the city.

"Open the door!"

As the suspension bridge was slowly lowered, the city gate was opened. Yan Liang and Wen Chou each led their cavalry and rushed out from the two southeast gates.

The cavalry's horses were equipped with kerosene.

Their combat intention was also very simple. , as long as you get close to Zhou Cheng's camp and throw out the fire oil can, you can return to the city.

On the city tower, a large number of crossbowmen have been prepared to cover the cavalry entering the city at any time.

The cavalry is a 'treasure', and Yuan Shao is reluctant to part with it.

If Qu Yi had three thousand cavalry at his disposal, so dealing with Zhang Yan would be another outcome.

Zhang Yan was responsible for the construction of the camp at the south gate.

At this time, Zhang Yan had also secretly deployed a large number of archers in accordance with Zhou Cheng's order. , just waiting for Yuan Jun to leave the city.

Sure enough, as the suspension bridge was lowered and the city gate opened, a large number of Yuan Jun's cavalry rushed out.

Zhang Yan ordered:"When they are within fifty steps away, release arrows!""

The commanders of the Montenegrin Army gathered together 20,000 archers and stood ready.

When Wen Chou came within a hundred steps, Zhang Yan's heartbeat accelerated.

Seventy steps, fifty steps

"Shoot the arrow!"

As Taishi Ci gave the order, the arrows were like locusts, shooting at Yan Liang and Yanxia.

At the same time, Wen Chou also encountered the same treatment.

The arrows were too dense, and they were shot at close range, and both men and horses were hit. Arrows fell from the horse.

Yan Liang was hit by three arrows. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough and his riding skills were good enough. He hurriedly pulled the horse's head and let the horse block the arrows for him. The cavalry behind

Yan Liang were not so good. Luck.

A crossbow washed his face at close range. The front of the walled city was soon covered with the corpses of war horses and Yuan Jun.

"How could this be?"Yuan Shao held on to the battlements with an expression of disbelief.

However, Yan Liang and Wen Chou quickly adjusted and changed horses.

The distance of fifty steps was really too close.

Yan Liang was the first to throw away The fire oil cans were released.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The fire oil cans hit the walled city one after another.

The wooden walled city was quickly ignited by the fire.

"Back to the city!"

When Yan Liang saw the fire in the walled city, he did not dare to stay any longer. He turned around and rode back to the city.

On the other side, Wen Chou reluctantly set the fire and hurried back to the city.

Seeing this scene, Yuan Shao felt relieved for the time being.

Zhou Cheng rode on the horse and pointed. The corpse of the war horse in front said with a smile:"Yuan Benchu's kindness, how can I not accept the order? Go ahead and eat horse meat in front of the formation.""

Nearly two thousand war horses.

Yuan Shao must be in pain now.

Under Zhou Cheng's order, Zhou Jun's cooks set up a table in front of the battle, dismembered the horses on the spot, and boiled them in a pot. The cooked horse meat, It was cut into pieces, and even the common people could get some broth and small pieces of meat.

Zhou Cheng laughed and said,"You can't thank Mr. Yuan for having horse meat to eat.""

"Thank you Mr. Yuan for sending the meat!"

Dian Wei took the lead in shouting

"Thank you Mr. Yuan for sending the meat!"

"Thank you Mr. Yuan for sending the meat!"

"Thank you Mr. Yuan for sending the meat!"

Next, Zhou's soldiers and civilians also shouted.

Yuan Shao on the top of the city, after hearing this, his blood rushed to his head and he almost fell to the ground and fainted.

Fortunately, Feng Ji and others helped Yuan Shao in time.

The next day Early in the morning, the burned camp was erected again.

The camp was originally a wooden structure. If Yuan Shao could burn it once, Zhou Cheng could set it up a second time.

Do you have the ability to continue burning it?

There is no doubt that this is provocation and stimulation. Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao was on the top of the city, gnashing his teeth in anger, but he could do nothing to Zhou Cheng.

He had no choice but to fight in the field.

Moreover, Yuan Shao had no plans to fight in the field.

Looking at Yan Liang and Wen Chou, although they burned down the city yesterday, they still couldn't do it. Both of them were injured.

If they want to go to the city to burn the stronghold today, who should they send?

Zhou Ang, Han Xun, Han Juzi, Lu Weihuang and other generals, look at me, let me look at you.

Even Yan Liang and Wen Chou went to burn the stronghold yesterday. They all returned wounded in the Walled City. If they were allowed to go, wouldn't that mean they were going to die?

What's more, they tortured more than two thousand cavalry yesterday, which was enough to make Yuan Shao's flesh hurt for a while.

Are they still going to send meat today?
