I'm a useless prince, so what if I know a little bit of chemistry?

In the next few days, Huangfu Pengwu did not realize that his plan had been broken, and still sent people to pretend to attack the city.

In order to buy time, Lin Fan pretended to cooperate, so Huangfu Pengwu did not notice anything wrong.

But on the other side, Chu Hu and Xiang Long brought their men to Sanguan County.

After investigation, the two men found that there were only more than 5,000 people guarding the city in Sanguan County.

The two of them discussed it and realized that since there were so few people, they could just take action directly without any strategy.

So the two men launched an attack on the city. The soldiers defending Sanguan County did not expect that anyone would attack the city and could only resist in panic.

Although there are only 5,000 people, attacking a city is different from defending a city. The number of attackers must always be higher than the number of defenders. Only in this way can the city be captured.

So when Chu Hu led these people to attack the city, they were actually not at an advantage, but fortunately they had used local materials to make a lot of ladders over the past few days.

They now have no gunpowder or explosives, so if they want to attack the city, they can only fight with brute force, there is no other way.

Chu Hu was still a little excited. He stood at the back and commanded the army. He said to Xiang Long excitedly, "We haven't attacked a city like this for a long time. I really miss it now."

Xiang Long kept frowning, because this was a tough battle. Sanguan County was a tough nut to crack, and he didn't know whether he could take the city if he attacked it by force.

After hearing Chu Hu's words, Xiang Long just grinned and said to Chu Hu: "It's already this time, you are still in the mood to joke?"

Chu Hu smiled without any conscience and said to Xiang Long: "Why are you frowning all the time? Can you crush the opponent to death by frowning?"

Xiang Long rolled his eyes, feeling speechless.

At this moment, a soldier came running over in a panic. The two men said, "Report to the two generals, there is a large army behind us, and it looks like there are at least 200,000 people. What should we do?"

When Chu Hu and Xiang Long heard this, their faces changed drastically. They turned around and saw a large group of people rushing towards them.

Chu Hu and Xiang Long's faces changed drastically. They knew what this meant. The only people who could have so many people on the battlefield of Chu State could only be people from Chu State. And these people came behind them, obviously wanting to eat them up in one bite.

Chu Hu and Xiang Long looked at each other, and Chu Hu shouted, "Hurry up and attack the city. Try every possible means to burn the food and grass. Even if the whole army is annihilated, we must burn the food and grass completely."

After Chu Hu finished speaking, he picked up his axe, then jumped on his horse and shouted, "Follow me if you are not afraid of death. Five to six thousand people will be enough."

Xiang Long had a premonition that something was wrong, so he grabbed Chu Hu's sleeve and asked, "Fatty, what are you going to do?"

Chu Hu turned his head, smiled slightly, and said: "The luckiest thing in my life is that I met the Marquis and the general. The general allowed me to survive, and the Marquis allowed me to stand up. I hope that the Marquis can make all the people in the world stand up, so I will stop the enemy behind me, and you lead the siege. If you can survive, burn more paper for me every year. If you can't survive, I will wait for you on the road to the underworld."

After Chu Hu finished speaking, he didn't even wait for Xiang Long's answer, but rushed directly to the opposite side.

There were five to six thousand people following Chu Hu. These people were all veterans who had fought with Lin Fan. They had long since put their lives at risk and now only wanted to stop the enemy.

Xiang Long's eyes were already filled with tears. He and Chu Hu were playmates in childhood, and they were inseparable even after joining the army.

But now Chu Hu is going to die. How can he, as his brother, not feel sad?

But now Xiang Long still has a mission to complete, and he cannot follow Chu Hu to die.

Xiang Long wiped away the tears from his eyes and shouted in the direction where Chu Hu left: "Fatty, don't go too far, I'll come find you soon!"

Xiang Long didn't care whether Chu Hu heard it or not. He picked up his weapon and rushed towards the city gate.

"Brothers, follow me to kill them and burn their granaries!"

Xiang Long personally went into battle just to burn down the enemy's granary in the shortest possible time.

With the determination to fight to the death, Xiang Long finally captured the city wall.

However, he didn't have many men under his command at this time, and only a few hundred were still able to move.

Xiang Long himself also had several wounds all over his body, but they were not fatal.

After Xiang Long simply bandaged the wound, he ran towards the granary.

Whenever Xiang Long encountered an enemy on the street, he would not say a word but would just hack him to death with his knife.

In the end, there were only about fifty people left who followed Xiang Long and rushed to the granary, and all of them were injured.

But they did not feel any pain, because the granary was right in front of them, and their mission was finally completed.

Xiang Long took out a tinder from his arms, and then threw the burning tinder into the granary. The remaining fifty people did the same.

I saw a huge fire starting to burn, and gradually, several surrounding granaries all started to catch fire.

Xiang Long looked at the burning flames and smiled happily, then turned to the soldiers behind him and said, "We are all the Marquis's soldiers. We can only die in battle, not be captured. Brothers, follow me to kill. Killing one will cover our losses, and killing two will make us a fortune!"

The soldiers responded one after another. At this point, they no longer had any chance of survival.

"Kill! It's worth following the Marquis for the rest of my life!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

At this time, the sound of war horses could be heard behind them. They knew that these were the large group of soldiers from the army. They held their blades tightly and walked step by step towards the direction where the sound came from.

……

After several days of harassment, Huangfu Pengwu finally realized that something was wrong.

Although he had been harassing them every day during this period, and Lin Fan's men looked a little tired, it was completely different from what he felt at the time.

He was a little dazed, and looked listless, with dark circles under his eyes. But now looking at Lin Fan's men, although they looked a little listless, they did not have dark circles under their eyes.

Huangfu Pengwu knew that he had fallen into a trap, and said to Huangfu Qi: "We have been fooled. Lin Fan must have thought of a way to deal with this trick a long time ago."

After Huangfu Pengwu finished speaking, a soldier ran in and said, "General, this is bad. Lin Fan has sent people to attack Sanguan County. It is estimated that Sanguan County will be lost. Please send people to support it as soon as possible."

This man ran out from Sanguan County to report the news when Chu Hu sent people to attack the city. He rode non-stop all the way, but it still took him five hours to get here.
