    The power of the giant catapult is amazing, and with continuous firing, the accuracy is getting higher and higher.

    Originally, Cheng Pu organized the defenders to shoot with bows and arrows on the top of the city to prevent Zhao Yun's siege troops from passing through the moat.

    However, his movement also immediately attracted the attention of the commander of the giant catapult.

    This person¡¯s mission is to use the huge power of the giant catapult to suppress the defenders on the city and provide cover for Zhao Yun.

    So he aimed directly at Cheng Pu, and three boulders flew over instantly.

    At this moment, Cheng Pu even felt as if it was dark.

    Fortunately, he reacted quickly and dodged to the side, thus avoiding the fate of being smashed to pieces by the boulder.

    It¡¯s just that other people¡¯s luck is not so good.

    After three hill-like boulders fell, more than half of the archers on the top of the city were lost.

    The most important thing is that with this attack, no matter how organized the generals are, no one dares to shoot arrows again.

    Taking advantage of this gap, Zhao Yun's army finally crossed the last trench.

    Except for a few who accidentally fell into the water and were submerged, there was no loss.

    Immediately, Zhao Yun began to formally attack the city wall.

    Under the bombardment of the giant catapult, many places on the city wall were damaged, so Zhao Yun set his target there.

    When Zhao Yun's army came to the city wall, they were accidentally injured, and the giant catapult finally stopped bombarding.

    That¡¯s why Cheng Pu dared to lead the defenders out to resist, and the two sides fought fiercely at the gap in the city wall.

    Both sides refused to give in to each other, and the casualties were very heavy.

    But overall, Zhao Yun still has the upper hand.

    Because under the bombardment just now, the morale of the defenders has been greatly damaged, and they still have lingering fears.

    So under the attack of Zhao Yun's soldiers, one wall was finally taken down.

    ???????? Cheng Pu is not a soft persimmon, he has a lot of troops in the city.

    He has been fighting so far, and the armor on his body has long been soaked in blood, which has restricted Cheng Pu's performance and his movements have become a little slow.

    Therefore, Cheng Pu simply took off his armor and led the attack with his upper body naked.

    Under his leadership, the morale of the defenders finally returned to its peak again.

    The city wall just occupied by Zhao Yun also started a more fierce tug of war.

    The battle continued until sunset, and Zhao Yun still failed to capture the city.

    In the end, we had no choice but to retreat temporarily and wait for the attack to continue tomorrow.

    Since he was covered by a giant catapult, he would not be hindered before he reached the city wall.

    However, Zhao Yun lost thousands of people in this day's attack, which was what made him most distressed.

    As for the defenders in the city, the losses were even greater, and the ratio of losses to the usual offensive and defensive battles was completely unequal.

    Although Cheng Pu repelled Zhao Yun, his face was still very solemn.

    He ignored rest and hurriedly organized the defenders to repair the damaged city wall. Although it could not be repaired overnight, it was better than nothing. At least it would give him a little more confidence.

    On the second day, Zhao Yun completely changed his plan after suffering a loss yesterday.

    Originally, he thought that with one blast, the opponent had been frightened and had no power to fight back.

    But he discovered something different when he attacked the city yesterday, which also gave him a new understanding of Cheng Pu's ability to command troops.

    Therefore, in order to avoid too many sacrifices, Zhao Yun prepared to continue bombarding the city wall until the opponent was frightened.

    So three giant catapults took turns to attack, and countless stones roared towards the city wall.

    Especially the city wall on the front received the most emphasis.

    After a lot of continuous bombardment, the scarred city wall finally collapsed completely.

    The advantage of the city wall that Cheng Pu relied on for defense was gone.

    When Zhao Yun saw this, he couldn't help laughing: "Haha, your majesty is indeed right, it's really artillery bombardment, artillery bombardment, just finish the artillery bombardment and the infantry charge!"

    Pass my order and the whole army will attack and take Fuxian County directly!  "

    The moment the city wall collapsed, the morale of the soldiers behind Zhao Yun also increased greatly.

    Seeing that Zhao Yun finally issued the order for a general attack, he immediately rushed forward desperately.

    Cheng Pu was originally defending behind the city wall. When the city wall collapsed, he was caught off guard and was buried underneath.

      Fortunately, he reacted quickly and used his weapon to support the wall, so he was not killed by the city wall.

    When he was picked out from the mound by the crowd, Cheng Pu didn't bother to dust himself off, and saw that Zhao Yun's army was about to arrive.

    Cheng Pu hurriedly stood up from the mound of dirt and directed his soldiers to resist the opponent's attack.

    However, although Cheng Pu worked very hard, the city wall collapsed, morale was low, and the defenders were beaten and retreated.

    And because the defensive area is so large, some positions begin to collapse as soon as they come into contact.

    Therefore, Zhao Yun's attack went very smoothly this time, and he finally successfully broke into the city.

    On the other hand, Cheng Pu was covered in blood and scarred, but he still couldn't stop Zhao Yun's attack.

    Seeing the current fighting situation in the city, Cheng Pu was extremely anxious, but he could not restore the sluggish morale at all. The defenders had been completely ruined.

    "General, withdraw! We can no longer defend Fuxian County!"

    Seeing that Cheng Pu was still gritting his teeth, the generals under his command could only step forward to persuade him.

    "What a bastard! Your Majesty entrusted Fuxian County to me, how could I throw it away? Now that I'm gone, how can I go to see the King with any dignity?"

    Cheng Pu¡¯s tone was firm and he would fight to the death.

    But courage could not change the direction of the war, and other walls in the city were gradually captured by Zhao Yun.

    If you don¡¯t leave, I¡¯m afraid you will really be caught in a trap by the enemy.

    Although Cheng Pu was ready to die for the city, he could not bear to let his soldiers perish with him.

    So in the end I can only say: "The fall of Fuxian County was all due to my general's incompetent command, and I alone bear the responsibility.

    You guys should retreat quickly while Dongcheng hasn¡¯t been breached yet!  "

    The soldiers wanted to say something else, but General Cheng Pu had made up his mind, and the desire to survive in his heart made them finally leave.

    In the end, only Cheng Pu and the thousands of soldiers around him were left to follow him and fight together as a trapped beast.

    Cheng Pu only felt that there were enemies all around him. He kept slashing with the big knife in his hand, and even felt a little numb, but he still couldn't kill them all.

    So, Cheng Pu mechanically repeated the chopping action, waiting for the final death.

    However, I don¡¯t know how much time passed, but suddenly there was a cry of killing behind me.

    The sound came from the east city gate, and Cheng Pu heard it immediately.

    The fall of the East City Gate also shows that all parts of Fuxian County have been completely occupied by enemy forces.

    So Cheng Pu thought in his heart that his fate was finally coming.

    I saw him suddenly shouting: "Drink! Come on, let me show you my strength!"

    At this moment, the shouts of killing behind him got closer and closer, approaching Cheng Pu.

    He even heard a familiar shout in a daze.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
