Chapter 230 - The Battle of Yingchuan.

However, he said that since Guo Jia was appointed as a military advisor, he stayed in the barracks all day long, spying on the military situation in the city on the grounds of being familiar with military affairs.

The sergeants and soldiers of the army naturally did not know, and they all praised him for his diligence. As everyone knows, the big and small situations in the army were sent outside the city.

Three days later, the Jiujiang army finally came to the city!

Originally, three days ago, Cao Cao and Xiahoudun joined Luyang and launched an attack on Yingchuan early. But he specially left three days to let Guo Jia spy on the military situation of the defenders in the city clearly. That's why he led the army to pull out Yingchuan!

30,000 Jiujiang elites, open accounts and line up under the city. It makes people feel that its momentum is oppressive enough! These 30,000 horses are all the elite of Cao Cao's subordinates! They have all experienced the baptism of war! It's terrifying to watch!

Cao Cao learned that Luyang Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun broke through, and he loved and hated the two of them! What I love is the skillful martial arts and loyalty of the two, and what I hate is that the two generals in my hands were almost folded in the hands of the two! Xia Houdun was blinded in one eye, and Xia Luqi was seriously injured, and he is still lying in bed to recuperate, I am afraid that he will not be able to recover in three or five months!

Cao Cao immediately vowed to capture the two alive, and if the two could be used for themselves, they would turn the conflict into jade silk. If the two do not surrender, then take the heads of the two to avenge the revenge of Xia Luqi and Xia Houdun. Then he ordered 30,000 elite soldiers and went straight to Yingchuan!

In late autumn and early winter, although it has not snowed, the cold wind blows and people shiver.

After Guo Jia's intelligence, Cao Cao learned that the defenders in the city were no more than 10,000 people, and immediately planned to break through the numerical advantage one by one. Under Cao Cao's deployment, the Jiujiang army was divided into two routes, Cao Cao personally attacked the south gate of Yingchuan, and the other road was led by Xiahoudun and Dian Wei to attack the north gate of Yingchuan.

The defenders in Yingchuan City have naturally taken action at this moment. Guan Ying and the veteran Huang Zhong led 4,000 people to garrison the north gate, and the south gate was garrisoned by Zhao Yun and Lu Wenlong.

"Listen to the defenders of the city! Our army came here to kill the traitors, Huang Zhong and others, and quickly open the door and surrender, and everyone is not guilty! If they resist, they will be punished as rebellion! If you enter the city, you will be broken into thousands of pieces! ”

At this moment, Xiahoudun, who was blind in one eye, came to the north gate with more than 15,000 people and shouted.

"Hahaha! Brag unblushingly! One-eyed thief! I'm blind in one eye, I wonder if you still know the old man?! At this time, Huang Zhong leaned out of the city and laughed.

It is said that when enemies see each other, they are very red-eyed. What's more, it's an eye-hurting vendetta that hurts the eyes.

"Old horseman?! I'm going to break you to pieces today! to vent the hatred in my heart! When Xiahoudun saw that Huang Zhong was so arrogant, he immediately became angry.

"Humph! Defeated generals, dare to make a mistake! Believe it or not, the old man made you a real blind man today! Look at the arrows! Huang Zhong immediately stretched out his bow and arrows behind the female wall and shot towards Xiahou Dun's front door.

Xiahoudun was blind in one eye, and he had already had a psychological shadow on Huang Zhong's archery skills. Looking at the feather arrows flying in the air, his heart was flustered, but he still stiffened, raised the long knife in his hand, and knocked the arrow down.

"Let me go!"

With the order of the baby, the feather arrows on the city wall were like raindrops, heading straight for the Jiujiang army under the city. Immediately, the people shot by the Jiujiang army turned on their backs.

Seeing this, Xiahoudun was naturally furious and immediately ordered to fight back. For a time, among the two armies, I don't know how many people were shot like hedgehogs.

"Kill me! Those who climb the city tower first will be rewarded with 100 taels of gold, and they will be crowned lieutenant colonels! And with a beautiful woman! ”

After a rain of arrows, Xiahoudun immediately ordered the siege of the city.

Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men. With this order, the Jiujiang army was like crazy and went straight to the moat.

Seeing this, the defenders on the tower immediately shot arrows at the Jiujiang army to prevent it from crossing the moat.

In the end, at the cost of hundreds of people, the Jiujiang army successfully built three pontoon bridges over the moat and went straight to the city tower.

"Kill! Kill! ”

"Sons! Today, I want to protect the city tower to the death! Smash me hard! ”

Huang Zhong saw that the Jiujiang army had crossed the moat, and immediately shouted. When the Yingchuan defenders heard this, they immediately smashed the rolling stone and the wood into the Jiujiang soldiers under the city.

At this moment, Dian Wei was also mixed in the Jiujiang army, carrying a double halberd and coming straight to the city tower.

Looking at the rolling stones that were thrown at him, Dian Wei used both hands to push them away. Under the cover of Dian Wei, the ladder of the Jiujiang Army finally stood on the city wall.

Huang Zhong also spotted Dian Wei's figure at this moment, and immediately bent his bow and arrows and shot towards Dian Wei's front door.

Dian Wei saw that Huang Zhong's feather arrows were coming quickly, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he immediately danced his halberds and shot down the feather arrows shot by Huang Zhong.

"Hahaha! Old puppet, how capable you are! That's just it! Wait for the skull! Dian Wei immediately laughed under the city.

When Huang Zhong heard this, he immediately bent his bow and arrows again and shot at Dian Wei. But it was still blocked by Dian Wei. Huang Zhong is getting old after all, and the feather arrows he shoots are getting weaker and weaker. They were all easily dodged by Dian Wei.

Looking at Dian Wei, who was about to ascend the city tower, Huang Zhong immediately lifted the big knife in his hand and swept towards Dian Wei Tianling Gai.

As soon as Dian Wei saw Huang Zhong's big knife sweeping, he immediately saw the opportunity, hung the hilt with the halberd in his hand, and jumped up with the power of Huang Zhong!

"Haha! Old guys! Come on! ”

Dian Wei jumped on the city wall, and the halberd in his hand immediately slashed at Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong knew that he could not be stopped, and immediately rolled over and dodged Dian Wei's halberd.

Dian Wei saw that Huang Zhong turned over and dodged, and immediately did not wait for Huang Zhong to stand up, but the other halberd swept straight towards Huang Zhong's head.

Seeing this, Huang Zhong immediately slammed the knife in his hand to resist the swept halberd.

"Phew!"

A crisp metal collision sound sounded, and the elderly Huang Zhong immediately rolled out dozens of feet and fell to the ground.

Dian Wei immediately went straight to Huang Zhong, and at this moment, Guan Ying also noticed the vicious battle between Dian Wei and the two, and immediately raised a spear to help Huang Zhong. The three of them immediately fought on the city wall.

As the two were dragged by Dian Wei, the Jiujiang army also continued to climb the city tower, and for a while, the defenders on the city tower fell into a bitter battle. At this time, Xiahoudun, who was carrying a long knife, also climbed the city tower. Kill all sides on the city tower, and no one can stop it.

At this time, Huang Zhong and Guan Ying were concentrating on fighting with Dian Wei, and they didn't notice Xiahoudun who was on the city wall at all! Seeing that the two of them didn't notice him, Xiahoudun immediately burst out, and the big knife in his hand went straight to Huang Zhong's back.

"Brother Dian Wei! I'm here to help you! Old Puff! Come on! ”

Huang Zhong also noticed the killing intent behind him at this moment, but he was dragged by Dian Wei and had no time to take care of it. He could only watch as Xiahoudun came straight to him with the spear in his hand.

"Master Hou, general, go quickly!"

In an instant, a soldier flashed out from the side and used his body to block the spear attacked by Xiahoudun.

The soldier's chest was immediately pierced by Xiahoudun's spear and he died on the spot!
