Chapter 398 Civil War

The morale of the coalition troops was shaken, and Chen Wen fell into a coma.

Some are already preparing to leave.

Seeing the opportunity, Guo Jia immediately dispatched troops, united the three armies, and advanced towards the enemy.

Yes, this time it was Guo Jia's turn to attack.

60,000 soldiers and horses moved out slowly and pressed towards the enemy's city.

And Zhang Yu's actions were also very fast. After controlling the city, he left 5,000 troops behind, and then led 15,000 people to kill in the direction of the coalition forces.

As for Huang Ren, he ran away as soon as he ran, and no one had time to pay attention.

Zhang Yu swept some coalition strongholds along the road, and once he found the place where the food was stored, they burned it down.

If it is burned, the fire can deal a major blow to the morale of the coalition forces and make them psychologically collapse.

On Guo Jian's side, they didn't attack or besiege the city, they just drove the army 30 li away from the enemy's city.

Yes, Guo Jia didn't go to attack, the cost of attacking the city was too high, but they only needed to do this, put a lot of pressure on the enemy, and the enemy would naturally collapse.

They were also on the verge of collapse, because the food base was occupied, and the food in the three cities could only last for a few days.

Zhang Yu came from another direction.

These troops in the city are under increasing pressure, and some people have begun to think about fleeing.

"Military division, will civil strife really happen to them?" Ling Cao asked uncertainly.

In the big tent, Guo Jia was very calm, handling official business on the desk and said: "Naturally, their composition is too complicated. Originally, Chen Wen's prestige was not enough. Many of them came to attack us for profit. Not only is there no benefit now, but the situation is so unfavorable that collapse is inevitable."

The generals in the big tent, Ling Cao, Gao Shun, Geng Zhoucang and others all acted very relaxed. Although the opponent was aggressive in this battle, it seemed that people from all over the world came to attack them, but in the end they didn't even take down a single city.

Zhang Yu continued to attack the city from the other side, and the threat became more and more serious.

In fact, their first reaction should have been to send troops to take back the city, but Chen Wen vomited blood and passed out, so he didn't even send anyone to hide.

And who is willing to go to the other armies?

No one wanted to go, so they huddled in the city, ready to die.

"No, you can't wait to die in the city."

"Must leave."

"Chen Wen has been in a coma until now, if we continue to wait, we can only end up dead."

Many foreign troops and some powerful troops in Yangzhou have started to quit. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that if they wait any longer, they will collapse within a few days.

This battle is hopeless.

Originally, if Chen Wen responded quickly, he would mobilize food and grass from the outside, or send troops to retake Wanling, but Chen Wen just couldn't stand the blow and passed out.

Now that soldiers are approaching the city, they have done nothing but wait to die.

Three days later, Zhang Yu fought dozens of miles away, and they were surrounded on both sides.

With the Yangtze River on one side, they had one last place to retreat.

Withdraw from Danyang County and retreat to other places.

But this road, the road is long.

Three days later, Chen Wen woke up leisurely.

At this time, Chen Wen suddenly became an old man, weak and weak.

"Kill, kill me."

"Go and kill Zhang Yu."

"Kill them all."

When Chen Wen woke up, he shouted to kill Zhang Yu.

He quickly issued an order to send troops to attack Zhang Yu.

When the order was given, many fell silent.

The general of Danyang County has fifteen thousand soldiers in his hands.

Their prefect had already been captured by Zhang Yu in Wanling City, and most of the entire Danyang County fell into Zhang Yu's hands.

Moreover, Danyang County is connected to Zhang Yu's Wu County and Kuaiji County. If this battle is defeated, there is no need to think about it, and the entire county will fall into Zhang Yu's hands.

Therefore, several generals in Danyang County moved their minds.

"Why don't we surrender Zhang Yu, even if we don't surrender, we have to flee, and many of our family members have fallen into Zhang Yu's hands." One of the generals said.

"What General Wu said is that if we don't surrender, we have to go to other places. It's better to stay in Danyang County.

It would be nice to have our family come out. "

"But will Zhang Yu kill us? Will he accept the surrender?"

"I heard that Zhang Yu is a great devil who kills innocent people indiscriminately. What if he kills us all?"

A general shook his head and said: "No, Zhang Yu's indiscriminate killing is just a rumor. We are near Kuaiji County, and we all have some research on him. He has never killed indiscriminately. At most, he will abandon us. kill us."

Several generals nodded after hearing this and said: "Okay, then we will surrender, otherwise, even if we go to other places, it is meaningless to be alone. Besides, when the military power is taken away, we will only have a dead end."

These people are quite rational and know their current situation.

"Since you want to surrender, you should have a certificate of surrender. How about we open the city and welcome Zhang Yu's army in." A general suggested.

Another general shook his head and said, "No, if Zhang Yu and the others fail to arrive in time, we will fall into a passive position. Why don't we burn the food and go directly to surrender."

"Okay, that's it."

Several generals finished their discussions, and then began to act secretly.

There were also changes in the other two cities, and private movements continued.

In the middle of the night, in Jiangcheng County, an army inside secretly started to move.

"We set fire to the warehouse and the barracks at the south gate, and then went straight out of the west gate to find Zhang Yu and surrender."

"Okay, let's split up."

They are the defenders in the city, and no one cares about their actions in the city, but some people are just curious.

The west gate was the gate they defended.

In the middle of the night, although the city was quiet, there were too many factors of instability.

"It's on fire, it's on fire."

"Hurry up and put out the fire."

"It's on fire, and the food is burned."

"It's dead, it's dead."

They burned the granary and the barracks at the south gate, just to make them confused, and because of the fire, they had no time to pursue them.

Two fires broke out at the same time. These were Danyang's troops. It was much easier for them to do things in their own city, so they easily ignited the fire.

"Walk."

The fire broke out, the city gate was thrown open immediately, and an army ran out from inside.

There is chaos in the city, and no one has discovered their situation for the time being.

The fire soon alarmed everyone.

"No, the enemy is coming."

"Zhang Yu is here."

Panic, from being caught on fire to being killed by the enemy, the city was in chaos.

Several nearby troops rushed over to fight the fire, but the fire was so intense that their granaries were quickly flooded.

Many people are desperate. They have already lost their logistics, and now the only food they have is also burned.

The situation is very bad.

"Danyang's army has all fled."

"They set it on fire."

Soon two more news came, and these two news immediately collapsed the army in Jiangcheng County.
