In the end, the gun rope was pulled from the westernmost corner to the easternmost corner, and more than three bundles of gun rope were used.

One bundle is one hundred and fifty feet long, and three bundles are more than five hundred feet long, which is more than three miles long.

If the redundancy is eliminated and the oblique length is subtracted, the Huangfu Song camp is nearly two miles long.

It took more than two quarters to finish drawing the first vehicle formation marking line.

With the markings in place, Guan Yu ordered the chariots to move forward one after another until people hit the ropes.

Amidst the tireless running and shouting of Zhang Fei's cavalry, and under the cover of Zhang Fei's cavalry, the soldiers slowly moved their car formations in the dark and moved closer to the marking line.

Then, Guan Yu hurried back to the camp. In the camp, Li Mengxi prepared another cart of gun ropes, and a group of 3,000 new soldiers, civilians, and yellow turbans were already drawn up.

In the team, everyone was biting wood, their feet were bare, and they were holding ropes in their hands. The three thousand people, under the strict control of the military judge, were quiet and no one dared to make any noise.

Guan Yu led the troops out again and was busy.

——

When the time came, Guan Yu nailed the gun rope to the east gate of the official camp. A long string of gun rope was connected from one corner to the other.

Each recruit team is divided into whole teams, with sixty people in each team. The recruits are mixed with civilians and yellow scarves. They do not light the fire and make no noise. Lieutenant General Guan Yu and his centurion lead the people one team at a time and slowly fire their guns at them.

Touch where the rope is.

A convoy is led by a centurion. The centurion holds a rope in his hand. Behind the rope is the flag-bearing instructor of the recruit team.

The instructor also held a rope in his hand, which was pulling a cart. On the cart were many wooden guns, and behind the cart were many people.

The centurion walked slowly, groping forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

Suddenly, his chest hit the rope of the barricade, and the centurion froze.

"We're here." The centurion lowered his voice and whispered to the back.

In the darkness, no one answered.

"Untie the rope and push the car over."

The centurion whispered.

In the darkness, the sound of moving wheels sounded.

In the distance, the rumble of the Zhuozhou Army's cavalry hoofbeats covered up all traces.

"Come here," the centurion commanded in a low voice, "car, come closer to me."

It was very difficult to mobilize manpower in the dark, but the mobilization was progressing steadily. The centurion lined up the four carts end to end against the gun ropes that marked the boundary, and connected the ends of the carts with ropes.

Once the car array is arranged, half the work is done.

Below, the centurion ordered the wooden guns pulled from the cart to be removed, one by one, and they were handed back in the dark.

The guns were all fired in a short while.

The centurion whispered again, "Okay, just stay here, stay still, don't move around, don't talk around."

Not long after the explanation, the centurion heard the sound of soft footsteps and the sound of a creaking car approaching.

The centurion knew that the next team was coming.

"Here, let's leave it here, come here."

People from the opposite team came over after hearing the sound.

Then, the new car formation was placed close to the gun rope, next to the already lined up car formation, and continued for a while.

In the camp, there was a new problem. There were not enough carts.

As a last resort, Li Mengxi immediately sent people to the Zihong team to unload all the Zihongs and free up the vehicles.

Also, knowing that Zhang Jiao had many vehicles, Li Mengxi issued another order, ordering Zhang Jiao to collect all the vehicles as a backup.

At the end of the day, Guan Yu had already reached the south gate of the official camp. At this time, the mobilization of personnel became much more troublesome. The official troops were marching down to the camp, and the rebel army was facing the north gate of the official camp. To go to the south gate, they had to go

Turn half a circle.

It was another operation in the dark. Guan Yu was afraid that someone would run into the army camp, so he was forced to order several horsemen to hold torches as road signs to guide the way.

Because he was afraid that the convoy would be exposed if he got too close to the torch, Guan Yu deliberately kept away from the torch and walked in a large circle.

That is, the torch provides direction, and the soldiers cannot really run against the fire.

When he arrived at the Zhuozhou Army camp at Yinshi, Li Mengxi looked at the last remaining group of people. After counting, they found that there were only less than a thousand people.

All combatable manpower in the army was dispatched.

When Guan Yu came back again, Li Mengxi said, "These are the only people left."

Guan Yu was stunned, "But the east gate has not been surrounded yet..."

Li Mengxi couldn't help but frown. Before the encirclement was completed, all the soldiers were gone.

When I think about it, there are still soldiers.

That is, in addition to more than 30,000 new soldiers, more than 30,000 civilians, and more than 10,000 people supported by Zhang Jiao, there are also more than 4,000 infantry, cavalry and crossbows.

These more than 4,000 soldiers included the cavalry in the army, 3,000 armored men, and a crossbow team of more than 1,000 people.

Whether it was cavalry or an organized crossbow unit, Li Mengxi felt that one of these elite forces could have a greater effect if combined together, rather than being split up and used to fill the encirclement. Therefore, these thousands of elite forces were not used.

Now Guan Yu said that there is still a section of the encirclement that has not been closed, and it is just in time to push the soldiers up.

The soldiers were assembled, but except for the cavalry, which was making too much noise and could not move, three thousand armored soldiers and more than a thousand crossbowmen followed Guan Yu.

At the fourth quarter of Yinshi, it was roughly around four o'clock when converted to time. Guan Yu arranged for manpower and carriages to fill the east gate encirclement little by little. Finally, the east gate car array and the north gate car array were connected together at the northeast corner.

At this point, the rebel army finally surrounded the official camp, using more than 80,000 men and more than 4,000 carts to surround the official camp and 80 steps away.

After working hard all night, Guan Yu was exhausted mentally and physically. At this time, Guan Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

The sound of horse hoofbeats was still rumbling, and it looked like Zhang Fei was leading the cavalry as they planned to circle around the army camp to disturb the eyes and ears of the army.
