And just when Yanzhou was about to change hands, in Runan, Zhang Liao had already led his army to Xuchang.
His mission is to capture Yingchuan County, pose a certain threat to Luoyang, and panic Xiahou Dun, who is stuck in Chenliu.
On this day, under the city of Xuchang, arrows were flying and people were shouting for killing.
"Compared to Chen Liu's test, the scale of the battle here is obviously greater.
Zhang Liao has already planned to capture Xuchang in one go, the "capital" of the Han Dynasty.
With Cao Cao opening a palace in Chang'an and Emperor Xian moving to Luoyang, Xuchang's status has declined.
How can a city with no danger to defend resist the 100,000 Yangzhou Army?
I saw an endless stream of siege troops, constantly attacking the city wall that was already stained with blood.
Under the city, Zhang Liao looked at the gradually occupied city tower and said excitedly:
"The city will be destroyed today!"
After looking at it, Gao Shun, who was next to him, felt a little confused and couldn't figure out something.
Xuchang is so important, why did Le Jin, the general guarding Yingchuan, remain motionless?
Why didn¡¯t Le Jin send a large army to protect Xuchang?
Could it be that Le Jin had other preparations and was waiting for an opportunity to counterattack?
In short, one must always be vigilant.
About half an hour later, on the city wall, the trapped camp was continuously killing the defenders.
Gao Shun, whose shirt was stained with blood, looked at the defenders who were retreating more and more, turned around and ordered coldly:
"Take this wall!"
"Follow your orders!"
Soon, a neat shout was heard on the city wall, which was filled with a deep chill and made the defenders tremble.
"The ambition to be trapped!"
"There is no life or death!"
The defenders were already in a daze, and now they have even lost their fighting spirit.
I saw the majestic trapped camp, vigorously climbing up the city wall, forming a battle formation, and gradually expanding the occupied area.
They moved in unison, regardless of life or death.
??The spears and swords came out together, and the sharp edges were filled with evil aura, which made people's hearts tremble.
This is the trapped camp. The elite troops trained by Gao Shun have followed Liu Ken in the north and south for many years.
Even if Yangzhou has a large number of talents, it cannot block the light of the trapped camp.
As the trapped camp frequently went into battle, under the light of swords and shadows, the defenders held on tightly, falling down one after another like grass being cut, suffering heavy casualties.
"This is indeed the strongest army in the world!"
Wenpin looked at the defenders turning into corpses with anger and emotion.
He was once Liu Biao's general. After Sun Ce occupied Jingzhou, he pretended to surrender. Later, he found an opportunity and defected to Cao Cao.
Le Jin is responsible for guarding Yingchuan County, and Wenpin is his deputy, guarding Xuchang.
It¡¯s a pity that this battle is destined to fail.
Because in the negotiation between Le Jin and Wenpin, Xuchang was a chess piece that could be abandoned at any time, just to delay the progress of the Yangzhou Army.
If there is a chance, Le Jin will lead the army to support. But in this situation, Le Jin would not come even if he was killed.
Wenpin can only work hard to support it. If it doesn't work, give up.
Under the massacre of the trapped camp, the momentum of the defenders was greatly reduced.
Seeing his men in such a miserable state, a captain said seriously:
"General Wen, retreat!"
"hehe."
Wenpin chuckled lightly, if he gave up the city so easily, not to mention his face, Le Jin would not let him go.
"If you want to break the city, how can you follow their wishes, listen to the general's orders, and send two thousand elite troops up!"
¡°General, no!¡± The captain was startled. Wasn¡¯t he going to die?
"No matter what, we must survive today, even if you and I go into battle in person, do you understand?" Wenpin said coldly.
Afterwards, Wenpin waved his arms heavily.
"Give me the order to kill those who obey me, reward me with a thousand gold coins, and get promoted to three levels in a row!"
"yes!"
The messengers ran back and forth to convey the orders.
"The general has an order to kill Gao Shun, reward him with a thousand gold coins, and be promoted to three levels in a row!"
The gloomy momentum of the defenders was boosted.
"Brothers, hold on!"
Facing the defenders whose morale had improved, Gao Shun said coldly:
"They want to take my life, what should you do?"
¡°??! kill! kill! "
The sound of shouting was continuous.
The trapped camp accelerated its breakthrough to gain momentum for its own general.
The sky gradually dimmed and dusk fell.
Looking at the trapped camp still standing on top of the city, covered in blood.
Wenpin couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Once the trapped camp takes an inch of ground, it will not retreat again unless it is death.
"It is truly the strongest army in the world."
After sighing, Wenpin looked at the struggling defenders, his eyes were blood red, and he was extremely unwilling.
"If you hold on for a little longer, the Yangzhou army will retreat!"
After an angry look, the captain looked at Wenpin's serious eyes and shouted in a deep voice:
"Go up! Go up! Don't retreat, otherwise you will be killed without mercy!"
At the same time, Gao Shun also issued an order:
"Prepare a bonfire, we won't retreat until we win!"
Before it gets dark, a blazing bonfire is burning.
This is the will to fall into the camp!
Seeing this scene, Wenpin could no longer hold on and ordered the defenders to gradually withdraw from Xuchang.
When the enemy troops retreated, Zhang Liao came to Gao Shun, looked at the cheering troops below the city, and said:
"Congratulations, General!"
The trapped camp on the city remained silent, without any joy of victory.
Instead, they clean the battlefield in silence.
They are the victors of the siege. It stands to reason that they can leave the job of cleaning up the battlefield to other troops.
But after the victory, the trapped camp spontaneously carried out this work.
Zhang Liao admired and said: "Such a strong army cannot be buried."
After hearing this, Gao Shun shook his head and said: "The people trapped in the camp are all veterans who follow the lord. They no longer need glory."
Zhang Liao was even more impressed.
A whole day of bloody siege caused heavy losses to the defenders, with more than 30% casualties and nearly 10,000 people. The whole of Xuchang seemed to be dyed red.
Gao Shun's shirt was stained with blood and he said in a concentrated voice: "Wen Yuan, take advantage of the victory and pursue it. Wen Pin must not be allowed to escape easily."
"Don't worry, I have already sent the cavalry."
Zhang Liao focused his eyes and continued:
"In today's battle, although the defenders attacked with all their strength, their momentum has obviously declined."
Gao Shun¡¯s face condensed and he said: ¡°Wenyuan will continue to march into Changshe, are you sure?¡±
"It is our duty to capture the entire territory of Yingchuan."
Zhang Liao's expression changed, and his whole body suddenly exuded an extremely cold edge.
Gao Shun nodded, and after a slight silence, he looked into the distance and said coldly: "Just what I want!"
Afterwards, Gao Shun ordered: "The army will rest for one night and be more efficient!"
"No!"
After hearing this, the trap camp nearby said in unison.
At first, Zhang Liao wanted to give the trapped camp three days to rest and recuperate, but now he can't say anything.
"General Gao, the next step is up to you. If we capture Changshe within seven days, our army will have achieved great success. If it exceeds seven days, you and I will not be able to see the Lord."
"General, please feel at ease!" After hearing this, Gao Shun firmly clenched his fist and said.
Seven days is too long, so he seizes the day.
As Wenpin led the defeated army to escape, Lejin also learned the news and became angry.
"Damn Wenpin, we agreed to stick with it for seven days, but Xuchang lost it on the first day. I'm so angry!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
