Dian Wei was grateful and was about to thank the king for his kindness, but suddenly he saw a man in black hitting a horse like flying. He rushed from Linzi City, ran to King Wuwei, jumped off his horse, knelt down and kowtowed, and said in a panic: "King, Gongsun Zan, Youzhou, has moved his troops and horses, and has formed a large army of 30,000, and is heading straight to the plain!"

Feng Sha was shocked when he heard this, frowned and said in a deep voice: "When did they send troops? Where have they arrived now? Why didn't you come to report earlier?"

The man in black kowtowed heavily and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, Gongsun Zan has raised his troops for many days, and his troops have reached the city of Pingyuan! It was because the young people were not sure of the situation and had not set up many secret spies in Youzhou, so they were allowed to march overnight and attack the plains in surprise. The young people deserve to die!"

Feng Sha said in a deep voice: "Forget it! In the future, we must strengthen intelligence work in the north, and no such thing will happen again!"

The man in black kowtowed and thanked him, wiped his tears and retreated aside.

Feng Sha turned his head and looked at the direction of the northwest plain from afar. His eyes were filled with worry and he pondered: "Only Song Xian was stationed in the plain with 10,000 troops, and it may not be able to defend it. Besides, the people of the plain have not been attached to it, so the result of this battle is worrying."

Dian Wei stood aside and said carefully: "King, will we send troops to reinforce? As soon as our army arrives, the enemy will naturally collapse."

Feng Sha shook his head and said, "It's too late. The enemy has come to the city of Pingyuan. Our army will not move forward too fast. When we get it, we are afraid that the enemy has already captured the plain. Besides, there is no food or grass, so how can we withstand the war? For the current plan, we can only use cavalry to attack for a long distance, and maybe we can still grab the plain city to set up defenses before the city is broken."

He made a decision and ordered in a deep voice: "Go and call Zhang Liao, Yu Jin and others, ask them to take the cavalry and set off with me, go far away to rescue the plain!"

After saying that, Fengsha shook the reins, and the wild star rushed straight towards the Linzi city gate.

Far far away in Youzhou, Duting Hou Gongsun Zan stood above Zhengtang, his face was gloomy and sunny, and he was only concerned about the war ahead.

The chief Guan Jing stood by the side. Seeing that the lord was so worried, he stepped forward and said, "Lord, don't worry. General Tian Kai is very skilled in martial arts and is familiar with war. He is a talented general. If he leads the army, he will definitely conquer the plain in one fell swoop."

Gongsun Zan shook his head and said, "Although Tian Kai is capable, he is a little reckless. I am afraid that he will lead his army to attack the city and cause too much damage. If he cannot attack, then Liu Sha personally leads the army to rescue the plains. Tian Kai can't stand him. The army horses I have finally trained will be greatly damaged!"

Guan Jing smiled and said, "Lord is worried. Liu Yanzhou was originally the old master of the plain, and he had already planted people in the plain. This time he made an appointment with the lord to attack the plain. With his help, he would definitely be able to defeat him in one attack."

Gongsun Zan frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "This incident also makes me feel a little uneasy. Although Xuande is my brother, he is very good at being, but this plain is the foundation of his old family. If the plain is built, who should manage it?"

Guan Jingweiqi said: "Liu Yanzhou has already said that if he gets a plain and is willing to hand it over to his lord for management. Didn't this be agreed, how can he still repent?"

Gongsun Zan shook his head and said, "It's just a talk. I'm in Youzhou, far away from the plain, and there's a Jizhou in the middle. The plain belongs to Qingzhou and is close to Yanzhou. At that time, I'm afraid that Liu Sha's army will come, so I can only let Xuande defend the city with him. After the battle is over, the plain city may not be in my hands."

He thought about it again and again, and was worried.

Suddenly, a soldier ran in from outside the gate of the Political Hall, fell to Gongsun Zan, and said respectfully: "Report to the lord, there is a pigeon that brings a letter. It is said that General Tian has already arrived at the city of Pingyuan!"

Gongsun Zan was excited and smiled and said, "Xuande just likes to play these strange little tricks, but it's really good to convey the news."

He took the small note from the soldier's hand, opened it, thought for a while, and said to Guan Jing: "Write me a letter, ordering Tian Kai to cooperate with Sun Gan to capture the plain as soon as possible. In the plain city, Xuande has been working hard for many years, and must have a lot of food, grass and property. After the battle, no matter what else, transport the property back to Youzhou first. When Liu Sha leads his army to seize the plain, he can guard the rules and cannot guard it, so he quits as soon as possible. As long as he can make more money and does not damage the troops, that's great."

Guan Jing agreed respectfully, and also took out a small note, picked up a brush, and carefully wrote small characters on it according to Gongsun Zan's instructions.

Under Pingyuan City and outside the north gate, there were already barracks. Countless Youzhou soldiers showed off their power and stood at the city to name and curse, trying to lure the defenders in Pingyuan City out of the city to fight the enemy.

Song Xian was wearing a helmet and armor, standing on the top of the city, frowned, and looked at the enemy soldiers yelling below, pondering without saying a word.

Gongsun Zan's troops had only more than 30,000 soldiers, not many, and there were also 10,000 elite Qingzhou soldiers in his city, not much less than the enemy. According to Song Xian's intention, he should lead thousands of elite soldiers to fight out of the city and give the enemy a warning so that they dare not look at Pingyuan City directly.

But King Wuwei had already sent a letter to Fei Ge and issued an order, telling him not to go out to fight, and to be cautious of the people in the city, and beware of trouble. In any case, he must defend the city and wait until he leads his army to aid.

Song Xian did not dare to disobey the lord's intentions, so he turned around and faced his subordinates and ordered loudly: "Everyone cheer me up and defend the city well! Set up more patrol teams in the city, patrolling the streets and alleys every night to avoid rioters causing chaos in the city, and join forces with the bandits outside the city to threaten the safety of our city."

The subordinates and soldiers responded loudly, cheered up their spirits, firmly guarded the city walls, and were careful not to give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of.

At the same time, in a wealthy house in Pingyuan City, Sun Gan, who had changed his face a few days ago, had removed his disguise on his face and hid in a secret room. Facing several accomplices, he said in a deep voice: "It's time to succeed! Just when it gets dark, we summoned our subordinates and prepared to stop. When it's late at night, we will go out, kill Song Xian, and take back the plain!"

Opposite him were a few strong men, who looked simple and simple, all wearing the clothes of the village house, and there was no big difference from the ordinary people on the street. Only the cold murderous aura that emerged from their bodies betrayed them. Everyone's face was full of murderous intent, and they nodded fiercely with a faint excitement. The thick palms had already tightened the hilt of the sword around their waists.

These people are the hidden forces that Liu Bei was lying secretly in the Pingyuan City. Among their subordinates, there were a large number of dead soldiers lying in the Pingyuan City. They looked no different from ordinary people on weekdays. Once they had orders, everyone could turn into brave warriors, sneak out from behind to kill the enemy.

This hidden troops were trained by Liu Bei and were all loyal to Liu Bei. Their leader was Sun Gan. When Guan Hai defended the city last time, Sun Gan was not there, and they had no orders or dispatch. And these people also understood that if there were no envoys to lead the army back to rescue, the thousands or hundreds of them would go out to help defend the city, and would have no effect. It would be better to still hide in the dark and wait for an opportunity to move, and hope to give the enemy a fatal blow to regain the plain city and let it return to the lord's command.

One of the strong men had a slightly hesitant look on their face and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Sun, this time we came from Gongsun Zan. If we help him capture the city, is this city his or his lord?"

Sun Gan hesitated and replied: "Gongsun Zan was originally a classmate and friend of the lord, but now he is in alliance with the lord to fight against the traitors. Even if he is allowed to live here for the time being, there is nothing wrong. The day before yesterday, the lord had made an agreement with Liu Sha that Yanzhou and Qingzhou would not attack each other. If our army openly occupied the plain, it would be a breach of the agreement. Although there is nothing to keep the agreement with those brutal traitors, the lord's name of benevolence cannot be defiled. Moreover, after we seize the plain, Liu Sha will inevitably lead a large army to attack. The lord is forced to send troops to help directly. With Tian Kai leading the army to resist in front, it will always be much better."

When everyone thought about it, it was the same, so they nodded and said yes, without any objection.

On this day, the Youzhou soldiers shouted and scolded at the city for most of the day, and did not return to the camp to rest until it was dark. However, the thunder was loud and the rain was light, so no one was sent to attack the city.

When the soldiers in the city saw the enemy returning to the camp to rest, they were relieved. Most of them went back to eat and sleep, leaving only some troops behind and took turns to guard the city.

However, Song Xian was always worried that the people in the city would rebel, so he sent a large number of patrols to patrol the streets in the city to prevent accidents.

In the middle of the night, the patrol team gradually relaxed when they saw nothing unusual. They were nervous during the day, and at night, they still had to patrol. They were all a little tired. Although they were patrolling the streets with swords and guns, they couldn't help but yawn.

Suddenly, hundreds of masked men rushed out of the darkness of the street, each holding up his sword and gun, without saying much, rushed forward and surrounded them for a fierce kill. The sound of weapons and screams instantly tear through the quiet night and resounded all over the world, and it seemed so harsh in this quiet night.

The patrol team was attacked suddenly, and immediately formed a circular formation as they were used to during training, shouting loudly, raising swords and guns to fight with the enemy. Some soldiers even lived in the formation and blew up the whistle assigned by the team with force. The harsh whistle spread from afar, all the way to the Qingzhou Army's camp in the city.
