Chapter 242: The Battle of the Rising Sun (2)
Although Lu Bu saw that there was a crack in the rope, he did not order to stop shooting, because he felt that the crack in the rope was not enough for him to shoot an arrow off.
When the five hundred archers made the second round of shooting, Wen Ping finally discovered the strangeness.
Immediately after, Wen Ping shouted: "It's not good, Lu Bu is shooting the rope of the suspension bridge, and the archers listen to the order and follow me out of the city to fight." ”
After hearing Wen Ping's shout, two thousand archers immediately followed Wen Ping down the city tower.
Immediately after, Wen ordered people to open the city gate and rushed to the moat.
When Lu Bu saw the Jingzhou army leaving the city, he immediately let the five hundred archers under his command shoot at him.
When the archers under Lu Bu finished the third round, Wen Ping finally led his troops to the moat and began to shoot Lu Bu's army.
Seeing this, Lu Bu immediately ordered to retreat, because his goal had been achieved, and it was up to him next.
When Wen Ping saw Lu Bujun withdrawing, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, because if Lu Bu was allowed to shoot down again, he was afraid that the drawbridge would not be safe.
At this time, when Ji Ling saw Lu Bu withdrawing his troops, he suddenly thought to himself: 'Lu Fengxian is really going to break his promise!' ’
Turn back to Lu Bu's side.
He turned around abruptly as his horse retreated, and then he aimed his bow and arrow at a drawbridge rope and shot it.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Bu's sharp arrow broke one of the drawbridge ropes.
Because one side of the drawbridge lost traction, half of the drawbridge collapsed suddenly.
Seeing this, Wen Ping had palpitations and ordered the archers to fire arrows at Lu Bu.
Seeing this, Lu Bu immediately manipulated the red rabbit horse to dodge the arrow.
Immediately after, Lu Bu once again stretched out his bow and shot at another drawbridge rope.
As Lu Bu's sharp arrow pierced the rope, the drawbridge that had lost its pull suddenly fell.
When the drawbridge fell heavily, Wen Ping hurriedly shouted: "Quickly withdraw to the city!" ”
The two thousand archers immediately withdrew to the city.
At this time, after Ji Ling saw Lu Bu's arrow breaking the suspension bridge, he immediately said excitedly: "General Lu is really unparalleled in the world!" ”
"All the soldiers listen to the order, give me the siege!"
As Ji Ling's military order was handed down, the soldiers under his command immediately launched a charge towards Chaoyang County.
When Lu Bu saw this, he immediately took five hundred archers to make way for the foot soldiers.
When the soldiers of the Ji Ling Department launched a charge, Wen Ping also returned to the city tower.
Immediately afterward, Wen Ping ordered his soldiers to prepare rolling logs, stones, and oil pots, because after the drawbridge fell, he could not only use the archers to stop him.
When the soldiers of the Ji Ling Department charged across the bridge, Wen Ping immediately ordered the archers to make a wave of blockade first, but the suspension bridge was wide, and some of the soldiers of the Ji Ling Department still rushed across the suspension bridge and set up a ladder.
Seeing this, Wen Ping methodically commanded the Jingzhou soldiers and soldiers to start attacking.
Soon, the army under Ji Ling's command also fought fiercely with the Jingzhou army.
At this time, Lu Bu also returned to the front of the formation.
When he saw Lu Bu, Ji Ling immediately laughed and stepped forward and said, "General Lu is really unparalleled in the world!" This kind of archery is really rare in the world! ”
Hearing Ji Ling's compliment, Lu Bu suddenly replied with some pride: "It's just a suspension bridge, it's not enough to worry about it!" ”
Afterwards, Lu Bu followed Ji Ling to watch the battle.
Although the soldiers of the Ji Ling Department built a cloud ladder to ascend the city, Wen Ping was worthy of being a famous general in Jingzhou, and he firmly blocked the attack of Ji Lingjun.
The Ji Ling Department stormed for a day without any results.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Ji Ling reluctantly ordered Mingjin.
After Wen Ping saw Ji Lingjun retreating, he immediately sent someone to inform Cai Mao of the news that the suspension bridge had been lost.
When Cai Mao learned that the suspension bridge in Chaoyang County was actually broken by Lu Bu, he immediately took Zhang Yun to Dongcheng Tower to check.
When Wen Ping saw Cai Mao coming, he immediately stepped forward to salute and shouted General Cai.
After returning the salute, Cai Mao hurriedly asked, "Zhongye, was the suspension bridge really broken by Lu Bu?" ”
"General Cai, the soldiers in the city today have all seen it with their own eyes, if you don't believe it, you can find someone to inquire about it."
After hearing this, Cai Mao casually found a soldier and asked.
When Cai Mao confirmed the authenticity of the news, he said very worriedly: "My Jingzhou soldiers are all sailors, and now without the protection of the moat, in the case of hand-to-hand combat, our army may not be able to support it for long, Zhongye, you continue to stay at the east gate, I will write to the lord for help now." ”
"The last general obeys!"
Subsequently, Cai Mao immediately went back and wrote a letter to Liu Biao asking for help.
At this time, Zhang Xiu, who was stationed near Xinye, also got the news that Ji Lingjun was attacking Chaoyang County.
Immediately after, Zhang Xiu hurriedly found Jia Xu and said to him: "Wenhe, the spies are coming to report, Ji Ling's army is now attacking Chaoyang County, should we go and help?" ”
"This matter must be helped, Chaoyang is the throat connecting Xiangyang and Wancheng, if Ji Ling really takes Chaoyang, our army will not be able to receive Liu Biao's supply of grain and grass."
Seeing that Jia Xu agreed, Zhang Xiu immediately gathered his soldiers and horses and began to approach Chaoyang.
Because Xinye and Chaoyang are not far away, Zhang Xiubu rushed to the vicinity of Chaoyang County in just one day.
At this time, the Ji Ling Department was attacking Chaoyang County.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Xiu immediately said to Jia Xu beside him: "Wenhe, this Ji Ling doesn't seem to have discovered our army, and I will lead my troops to kill and relieve the siege of Chaoyang now." ”
Jia Xu watched the situation on the battlefield and agreed.
Zhang Xiu, who got the approval, immediately led his troops to rush towards the flank of the Ji Ling Department.
Because Ji Lingjun didn't expect Zhang Xiu to lead his troops to kill from the flank, Ji Lingjun's siege troops were in turmoil at once.
When Ji Ling saw that an enemy army had raided his siege troops, he immediately sent Zhang Liao to meet him.
At this time, when Wen Ping, who was on the tower of the city, saw that reinforcements had raided the Ji Ling Department, he was immediately overjoyed and said, "Our reinforcements have arrived!" All the soldiers will retreat with me! ”
After hearing Wen Ping's shout, the Jingzhou army on the city tower immediately struggled to drive the soldiers of the Ji Ling Department off the city tower.
At this time, Zhang Liao also led the army to meet Zhang Xiu's department.
When Zhang Xiu saw that Ji Ling was about to kill, he immediately shouted: "Come and get your name!" ”
"Yanmen Zhang Wenyuan is also!"
When Zhang Xiu heard this, he immediately raised his gun to meet him.
Soon, Zhang Liao and Zhang Xiu fought fiercely.
When the first-class intermediate Zhang Liao met the first-class intermediate Zhang Xiu, the two of them were completely chess opponents and would meet good talents.
After the two fought fiercely for fifty times, Ji Ling saw that Wen Ping also led the army to cover up, and he hurriedly withdrew his troops.
Hearing the sound of Mingjin, Zhang Liao waved a knife and forced Zhang Xiu back, he suddenly said, "Who are you?" and leave your name. ”
Zhang Xiu, who had some sympathy with Zhang Liao, immediately replied: "I am Zhang Xiu, the king of guns in the north." ”
"What a Northland Gun King! I Zhang Liao wrote it down. ”
Subsequently, Zhang Liao immediately led his troops to withdraw.
At this time, Wen Ping's cover and kill out of the city also joined Zhang Xiu.
When Wen Ping saw Zhang Xiu, he immediately smiled and said: "General Zhang, thanks to your help today, our army can defeat Ji Lingjun!" ”
After hearing this, Zhang Xiu hurriedly replied: "General Wen, although Ji Lingjun has been defeated by this, his strength still exists, so let's not be too careless!" ”
"This is natural, General Zhang Xiu, please follow me into the city!"
Zhang Xiu immediately hesitated when she heard this.
