Chapter 1104: Sun Ce and Cao Cao were imprisoned
Lu Meng was also merciless in chasing and killing Sun Ce.
He would not deliberately let Sun Ce escape now because he was Sun Ce's lieutenant.
There are fewer and fewer people following Sun Ce.
Moreover, Lu Meng had already commanded people to block several other roads in the city.
Although this Yulin County was previously in the hands of Cao Cao and Sun Ce.
But now, they have become turtles in the urn.
Not only was the road in front blocked, even if Sun Ce and Cao Cao rushed over by luck, the city gate behind was also closed.
There is already a Zhao army, and they are heading towards the other three city gates.
Zhao Jun's superiority in numbers at the moment has been fully demonstrated.
Sun Ce and Cao Cao now had hundreds of people around them, and they couldn't deal with Zhao Jun at all.
The two also ran away separately.
After separating, let Zhao Jun disperse, they may still have a little chance.
Not to run away, but to hide.
With so many houses in the city, some people live and no one lives, can't they find a place to hide?
As long as they hide for two or three days, they can escape from the city.
It's just that they are separated, and the Zhao Jun who is chasing them behind them is also separated.
Whether it was Sun Ce or Cao Cao, there were still thousands of Zhao troops chasing behind them.
Even if there were people hiding in the houses on both sides along the way, Zhao Jun would immediately rush in.
Then get the person out.
In the dark night, Cao Cao and Sun Ce could never get rid of the Zhao army behind them, there was no way to go to the sky and no way to go down.
And as time passed, Zhao Jun appeared on all the streets in the entire Yulin County City.
Sun Ce and Cao Cao had no way out.
Both of them were blocked by Zhao Jun before and after.
Xu Huang on the city wall had also let people tie up Zhou Yu, and he and Lu Meng blocked Sun Ce and Cao Cao respectively.
Both Sun Ce and Cao Cao were still resisting.
Sun Ce's force is very strong, but Xu Huang will not be much weaker than him.
Now that Sun Ce is at the end of his rope, Xu Huang doesn't need to fight with Sun Ce, he just needs to contain Sun Ce, and wait for the soldiers around Sun Ce to be killed, even if a Sun Ce is powerful, Xu Huang really doesn't believe that he can be killed from the encirclement of thousands of troops.
After losing the help of his comrades-in-arms, even an invincible general like Zhao Yun and Lu Bu is also difficult to break out of the encirclement.
What's more, Xu Huang himself will not be much weaker than Sun Ce, he will contain it, and other soldiers are coming over to help, Sun Ce is invincible with two fists.
The spear in Xu Huang's hand avoided the truth, that is, he didn't collide with Sun Ce, and Sun Ce had no choice but to watch the soldiers who followed him fall one after another.
The number of people around him went from two hundred, to one hundred, to fifty.
Looking up, the surroundings were densely packed with figures, but the people who belonged to him were indeed scattered and there were only a few left.
Sun Ce wanted to break through, but as long as he ran, Xu Huang would chase him, and as soon as he turned around, Xu Huang immediately stopped.
Sun Ce had no way to get rid of Xu Huang at all, he could only pull away a distance of one or two zhang at most.
And now no matter which direction he runs, there will be Zhao Jun in front of him.
There is no way to hide even if you want to, there are at least a dozen pairs of eyes staring at Sun Ce at all times.
Unless he can fly away, he will definitely not be able to escape from the encirclement of the Zhao army.
Cao Cao on the other side is not as good as Sun Ce.
His own force is not as good as Sun Ce, and the generals around him who can fight have already been killed or captured by Zhao Hui before.
The rest of these are also dead wounds at this moment.
Cao Cao himself was embarrassed.
After being blocked by Lu Meng, he continued to resist for a while, and was captured alive by Lu Meng.
After Cao Cao was captured, Lü Meng also came to help Xu Huang.
Under the joint efforts of Lu Meng and Xu Huang, Sun Ce was also captured alive.
This sneak attack in the middle of the night was something that Cao Cao and Sun Ce did not expect at all.
So, none of them are ready to retreat.
Because they had enough gunpowder in their hands, Sun Ce and Cao Cao were actually very confident that they would be able to hold Yulin County this time.
After all, it was only Xu Huang who came to attack this time, Zhao Hui had already retreated to Xiangyang, and Xu Huang only had 50,000 people in his hands.
As for the Jiaozhou Army in Shi Xie's hands, it was directly ignored by Sun Ce and Cao Cao.
They also wished that the Jiaozhou Army would come to participate in the war, and it would be time for the Jiaozhou Army to try the power of gunpowder.
Let the defeated Jiaozhou army affect Xu Huang's military formation.
It's just that Xu Huang directly excluded the Jiaozhou Army. Sun Ce and Cao Cao were not given the opportunity to bomb the Jiaozhou army.
Another point is that Lu Xun's departure from the city, Lu Ji's internal and external cooperation, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and Cao Cao, were completely unexpected.
Those who have the opportunity to open the city gate at night, in addition to Lu Ji, there are also some people in the city who can do it.
It's just that they are all the most trusted people by Sun Ce and Cao Cao, and Sun Ce and Cao Cao will not doubt them.
For Lu Ji, Sun Ce was the same, before this, he had no doubts.
Moreover, Sun Ce and Cao Cao also gave an order, and no one could order the defenders to open the city gates at night except for him and Cao Cao.
However, after all, there were still loopholes, at least when Lu Ji and his family approached the city gate on the grounds of looking for Lu Xun, those defenders did not suspect it.
They also adhered to Sun Ce's order and did not open the city gate, but they were suddenly attacked and killed by Lu Ji's family, and more than a dozen people died in a blink of an eye.
It didn't even alarm the defenders on the ramparts.
By the time he found out, Lü Meng had already led 2,000 men to guard the city gate.
Even when Sun Ce Cao Cao received the news, he began to mobilize a large army to counterattack at the first moment.
However, they did not fully understand the situation at the city gates.
Sun Ce and Cao Cao, as well as Zhou Yu, their first judgment at that time was that they could still hold the city and regain control of the city gates.
A lot of gunpowder was piled up on the city walls, which could prevent the Zhao army from entering the city.
Unfortunately, they were wrong.
Not only did they fail to regain control of the city gates, but they were rushed in by more and more Zhao troops, and Zhou Yu, who was on the city wall, was also captured.
The gunpowder did cause a lot of casualties to the Zhao army.
However, Zhao Jun had long been accustomed to the sound of gunpowder exploding.
If it is replaced by other people's troops, it may be bombarded by gunpowder, and it will directly choose to retreat.
But the 50,000 Zhao troops led by Xu Huang would never retreat before they had the order to retreat, and they would never turn around and flee because of the bombardment of gunpowder.
If tonight, the Jiaozhou Army participates in the battle, the result is really difficult to say.
Let the Jiaozhou Army participate, don't say that one plus one equals two, it is very bad to be able to maintain one, it is more likely that the Jiaozhou Army plus the Zhao Army, the combat power is less than 50,000 Zhao Army.
"Is it over?"
In the camp two miles away, although Shi Yi asked the 30,000 army to go back to rest, he himself couldn't sleep, and he kept listening to the sound of explosions and killing two miles away.
