Invincible Three Kingdoms System

Chapter 376 The door is wide open
The soldiers outside the city saw that there was no movement on the city wall, so they shouted again: "Hurry up and open the city gate. If General Chen returns and is blocked outside the city, wouldn't he be attacked by the enemy?"

After hearing this, the guards on the city wall nodded and said to Li Ji beside him, "My lord, the brothers below are right. If we keep them out of the city, if General Chen Ji returns, they won't be able to retreat to the city for a while." , is it not allowed to be slaughtered by Zhao Qian?"

They have seen the power of Zhao Qian's army. Although they failed to capture the city several times, the fighting power displayed is amazing.

These sergeants guarding the city may not be very good at fighting, but they are veterans who have been in the army for many years, and they still have eyesight.

Compared with Zhao Qian's army, they already knew which ones were stronger and weaker.

If they rely on the city wall, they still have some confidence to resist Zhao Qian's attack. If they don't have the city wall as a support, they can only surrender in the face of Zhao Qian's army.

If Chen Ji came back and didn't catch up with Zhao Qian's pursuers before entering the city, it would be really bad luck.

Li Ji also frowned, he deeply felt that his so-called "intelligence" was not enough at this time.

Leaning forward to look at the team under the city, and looking at the darkness around him, Li Ji said to the guards around him, "Look how many people are there below?"

The guard leaned forward and looked down, and after a while, he said to Li Ji: "My lord, there are about 200 people below, and dozens of grain trucks."

"200 people? It's not a lot. It shouldn't be too much trouble." Li Ji thought to himself.

After thinking again for a while, Li Ji said to the guards with the mentality of "not seeking merit, but seeking no fault", "Go and open the city gate and let them in. Don't block General Chen's way back to the city."

"Order!"

With Li Ji's permission, the guard hurried down from the city wall, came to the gate of the city, and ordered the guards to open the gate.

The sergeants transporting food looked at each other, and the leader hurried forward and said, "Thank you brother, General Chen will be here soon."

The guard looked at the darkness in the distance, and urged: "Don't get inked, hurry up, don't block General Chen's way for a while!"

"Brother said, let's go, go to the city!"

Nearly [-] sergeants behind them were pushing the "grain cart" to the center of Shangcai City. Just entering the city, they heard shouts from a distance.

"Close the city gate!" The guard was startled and ordered quickly.

The former leader of the grain transportation immediately stopped him and said, "Don't close the city gate, I'm afraid General Chen is back."

The guard was stunned for a moment, hesitant in his heart, and looked outside the city gate, wanting to confirm whether it was Chen Ji.

It didn't take long for the situation in the distance to be seen clearly, but the guard's face suddenly changed, because what he saw was not Chen Ji at all.

The guards recognized the leader. It was Zhang Fei, the general under Zhao Qian's account.
"Close the city gate, close it quickly... ah!"

The guard hadn't finished shouting, but suddenly felt a pain in his chest. He looked down and saw that a spear had pierced his body.

"You!" The guard looked at the sergeant who rhymed the grain cart before in disbelief.

The sergeant ignored him at all, pulled out his spear, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, take down the city gate and welcome the general into the city."

There were only more than 100 sergeants guarding the gate. The incident happened suddenly, and they were no match for those people. Soon the city gate fell under the control of the grain escort team.

Afterwards, Zhang Fei took the lead and led the army into the city.

Li Ji on the city wall also saw from a high place that the team coming was not Chen Ji, but Zhang Fei, and shouted: "Quick, go and block the enemy, go!"

Just when Li Ji was shouting anxiously, Zhang Fei had already led his army to the city wall, and went directly to kill Li Ji!
How could Li Ji escape Zhang Fei's pursuit? A moment later, a human head flew down from the city wall, and the army staff officer went to accompany Chen Ji.

The battle didn't last long. After all, once Chen Ji and Li Ji died, these soldiers had no intention of resisting.

After arranging the surrendered sergeants, Zhao Qian took Shangcai down.

Now that Shangcai, Ruyang, and Chenjun have all been breached, Huaiyang Yuanshu's door is wide open, and Zhao Qian has no worries about being cut off. It is time to join Xu Chu and Tai Shici and take Runan.
