Chapter 18 Binding Li Ji
"Listen to the Qingzhou soldiers in the city, I am Guan Ping, the eldest son of Guan Yu, to lead the army to come, you wait to open the city as soon as possible."
Walking outside the city, looking at the fire at the city gate, the sound of the fight was still so fierce, Guan Ping couldn't help but step forward with a knife and shouted.
The shouts resounded, and when the strong man in the city heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and his momentum became more intense, and he continued to chop the Jiang and Han soldiers around him with a knife.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Han army has arrived outside the city, quickly open the city gates, and let them enter the city."
"Otherwise, once we wait for the old thief Lu Chang to lead the crowd to come, we will definitely die today and have no place to be buried!"
With the news that the Jingzhou army had arrived, it was like a blow to the mutinous Qingzhou soldiers, causing their gradually dissipating military spirit to suddenly condense.
At this moment, the momentum of the Qingzhou soldiers was even more fierce than before.
Because the Qingzhou soldiers are veterans of battle, their combat power is already extremely strong, and now it is accompanied by their life-and-death battle, and almost everyone is willing to sacrifice their lives to fight, plus the arrival of the Jingzhou army.
At this moment, the fierceness of the Qingzhou soldiers was unparalleled, and in a short period of time, the Jianghan soldiers were killed all over the field, and the blood flowed everywhere.
"Quick, open the city quickly!"
Killed under the city gate, the military marquis strong man held a knife and gave a tight order.
"Crunch, squeak!"
With a burst of noise, the city gate slowly opened!
Outside the city
Guan Ping was overjoyed when he saw this, so he didn't hesitate at all, and shouted loudly: "Han soldiers, follow me into the city and seize Xiangyang!" β
"Kill!"
The order was handed down, Guan Ping took the lead in dragging his sword and riding his horse, like an arrow from the string, and the soldiers behind him followed.
"Ahh
Rushing into the city gate, Guan Ping's big knife fell, and in an instant, several Jiang and Han soldiers were cut into two pieces, and the corpses were completely separated.
"The major general is mighty, mighty!"
Immediately following, the Jingzhou soldiers who rushed after saw this, and they all shouted, and their momentum climbed to the peak in a blink of an eye.
At this moment, the remaining Jiang Han soldiers gathered around one after another, each holding a knife and a halberd and looking at Guan Ping solemnly, revealing frightened eyes.
After more than ten days, Guan Ping even used strategies to attack the hearts of the soldiers in the city, but he never showed bravery, and the soldiers and soldiers of Cao thought that he was just a Confucian general.
But the facts have once again proved that Guan Ping's brave martial arts are also invincible, and he has the demeanor of his father!
"Form a formation, attack the thief army, and occupy the city gates!"
However, it was only a moment for Leng Shen, so Guan Ping waved his sword again and gave the order, and then personally killed his horse at the front line.
One knife after another, Guan Ping's body felt more and more that the blood was boiling, and the blood was accelerating.
"I deserve to be the descendant of the Guan family!"
At this moment, Guan Ping was fighting between the battle formations, killing one soldier after another Cao soldiers, and the cheerful look on his face was more and more released.
On weekdays, he used a wide range of strategies, but everyone thought that he Guan Ping was just a Confucian general, and at this moment, Guan Ping wanted to tell Cao Jun with his bloody sword.
He, Guan Ping is not only strategic, but also his father is invincible, and the army takes the first rank of general from the strong momentum.
The battle was half loud, and under the siege of the Jingzhou army and the Qingzhou soldiers, the soldiers defending the city were all wiped out.
At the city gate, it was completely cleared!
Immediately, Guan Ping divided more than 1,000 people to take over the city gate, and disarmed to guard the Qingzhou soldiers.
"Soldiers, follow me to continue to fight into the city and capture the county guard Lu Chang alive."
Immediately afterwards, Guan Ping did not stop at all, and continued to lead the rest of the Han army to attack the city.
At this time, it was still in the wartime stage, and the strength of the Jingzhou army was already stretched, so Guan Ping did not order to accept prisoners of war, but mainly killed!
Only when the Jingzhou army attacked the city, Lu Chang had already led the crowd to the market, and suddenly a high cheer sounded.
"Report, tell the county guard, the city gate has been lost, the Jingzhou army has attacked the city, and is now killing here."
Hearing this, everyone saw this, and a bloodied and scarred soldier galloped over, panting and pleading.
Hearing this, he was stunned for a moment, Lu Chang couldn't help but feel incredible, and hurriedly asked, "This, how is this possible?" β
"The Hanshui camp is more than thirty miles away from the city, but now the rebellion has only lasted for half an hour, how did the Jingzhou army come so fast?"
At this time, Lu Chang became more and more puzzled, how did the Jingzhou army arrive for more than 30 miles?
"Even if it's a light horse in full gear, it's impossible to rush so quickly, right?"
Hearing this, Lu Chang's eyes were solemn, and he groaned secretly.
Seeing Lu Chang's questioning tone, the soldier was so anxious that he was about to cry, and said in a crying voice: "County guard, this is true!" β
"A certain and his comrades resisted the mutinous Qingzhou soldiers, but at the critical moment, Guan Ping personally led the Jingzhou army to come, and under the cooperation of the inside and outside, he seized the city gate."
"In this way, the garrison of our army has been wiped out!"
Seeing this, although Lu Chang was incredulous, the soldiers had already reported it like this, so it must be true.
The Jingzhou army has really attacked the city!
"The whole army quickly moved in the direction of the water camp and withdrew!"
After a long groan, Lu Chang sighed bitterly, so he stopped continuing to support the city gate, and instead ordered the withdrawal from Xiangyang.
He knew that now that the city gate had been lost, the loss of Xiangyang would be a foregone conclusion, and the only remaining soldiers on his side would continue to confront the Jingzhou army, and there was no other way except for the annihilation of the entire army!
Therefore, Lu Chang ordered Le Qi to withdraw to the water camp in advance and make preparations in advance.
There are still a lot of ships in the water camp, if they are attacked, then it means that the retreat of the Cao army has been cut off.
At this moment, Xiangyang is lost, and Lu Chang's only hope now is to bring the last 2,000 or so soldiers back to Fancheng safely.
In this way, it can also add a trace of strength to the garrison of Fancheng.
In the city of Xiangyang
As LΓΌ Chang led the people to abandon the city, Guan Ping also dispersed the Jingzhou army, and each sent a team to clear the remnants of Cao's soldiers in the city.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Outside the city, Lu Chang led the crowd to slowly move forward in the direction of Hanshui, and suddenly, a burst of fire and the sound of fighting sounded from far and near.
"That's the direction of the water camp?"
"Could it be that something has happened to the water village?"
Seeing this, Lu Chang's eyebrows condensed slightly, and an ominous premonition rose inexplicably in his heart.
After a while, the soldier in front finally revealed his true face, and through the faint light of the fire, Lu Chang couldn't help but be surprised, and hurriedly waved his sergeant to answer.
When he got closer, looking at Le Qi's cloak and bloodied body, Lu Chang couldn't help asking: "Le Qi, how is Shui Ying?" β
Hearing this, Le Qi forcibly mustered up a little strength, and slowly said, "Ahem...... The county guard, I am ordered by you to go to the water camp in advance to make preparations in advance, and dispatch the warlike ships. β
"But who knows, when I went outside the water camp, the water camp had been captured by Zhou Cang, a general under Guan Ping."
"Then I led the crowd to fight a fierce battle with Zhou Cang, but the strength of the Jingzhou army is strong, and I ......... fight."
"Kill, kill, annihilate the Cao army!"
Only when Le Qi reported, the torches in front of him suddenly lit up, and Zhou Cang raised his horse and sword, leading the crowd to kill first.
Seeing this, Le Qi was in a hurry and said: "County guard, quickly lead the people to withdraw with me, I have a way to get rid of the Jingzhou army and cross the north bank." β
Hearing that Le Qi had a way out, Lu Chang couldn't care about anything else, and immediately led the crowd to follow Le Qi to evacuate.
Subsequently, Cao Jun and Jingzhou Jun chased one after the other.
β¦β¦β¦
Inside the city
Just when the chase battle was launched outside the city, at the end of the street at this moment, more than 100 Cao soldiers were guarding a Cao army general in the middle, surrounded by the Jingzhou army, and they could not move!
