Chapter 496: The Battle of Chen Cang (5)

"No..."

The soldiers followed Hao Zhao into battle and rushed to the battlefield ahead.

I have to say that Hao Zhao's abacus is good, and he wants to use Ma Chao and Pang De to force Yuan Xi to stop fighting, if he can really capture the two of them, Yuan Xi really won't dare to come nonsense.

But...

Can Hao Zhao do it?

Can a bow and arrow restrain a giant beast and lure it away?

Woo woo...

Rushing to the battlefield, Hao Zhao had an idea and ordered the whole army to retreat to the west. At the same time as the horn sounded, Hao Zhao's banner moved from east to west, and all the soldiers followed him, quickly heading west into the city.

The soldiers who are 'fighting' with the Behemoth leave the Behemoth and leave. The giant beast subconsciously pursued and entered the city with Cao Jun.

Hao Zhao's plan was simple.

In this way, he wanted to attract the giant beast and then transfer troops to surround and kill Ma Chao.

If it weren't for Yuan Xi's existence, maybe he would have succeeded, and in the end, the sword thorn dragon might not be able to become a threat to him. But Yuan Xi rode the four phases, standing in mid-air, seeing this situation, can he be indifferent?

"Stop chasing, come back and save Ma Chao first." Yuan Xi ordered without hesitation.

The sword thorn dragon stopped and turned back sharply.

Roar!

Under Hao Zhao's stunned gaze, the Sword Thorn Dragon abandoned all the Cao troops that had retreated westward, and went back to attack the enemy who surrounded Ma Chao. You must know that there are not many people there anymore, and most of them have withdrawn to the west.

Hao Zhao couldn't understand, what was the reaction of the giant beast?

Boom boom...

Without waiting for Hao Zhao to make any moves, the Sword Thorn Dragon had already rushed to Ma Chao and successfully repelled all the Cao troops.

Yuan Xi flew down to meet Ma Chao: "Meng Qi, you go back to the camp to rest first, and the next battle will be taken care of by it." Yuan Xi was worried about Ma Chao's body and pointed to the nine-meter-long sword thorn dragon.

Ma Chao arched his hand and said: "Don't worry, the lord will be able to persevere!" ”

"Okay, I'll let the Sword Thorn Dragon open the city gate, and you lead the army straight to the school field and defeat the Cao army there." Yuan Xidao.

"Yes."

Yuan Xi flew to the ear of the sword thorn dragon, making him quickly rush to the city gate.

This is not a trivial matter for the huge and invincible Sword Thorn Dragon.

After it charged, the Cao troops along the way avoided it.

Those stationed at the city gate dispersed in a hurry.

Boom boom...

The head of the sword stabbing dragon slammed into the city gate, and the wooden gate could not withstand its attack. After only a dozen hits, they all shattered.

With one last impact, the door was completely opened.

Ma Yunlu, who was still fighting outside the city, saw a huge head slamming open the city gate, and she thought that it was Yuan Xi's masterpiece. Immediately, he rejoiced in his heart and said, "Hehe... Now Chen Cang will be breached. ”

"No wonder Yuan Xi has won every battle in the past few years, and even Cao Cao is not his opponent..." Ma Tie said.

These words refer to the giant beast that broke through the city gate, instructed by Yuan Xi.

The implication is that if you can command a powerful beast, what battle can't you win?

"yes." Matthew also said.

Thinking that he would be the general under Yuan Xi in the future, everyone was very relieved.

The giant beast (Sword Thorn Dragon) in the distance had already walked away, and Ma Yunlu raised his gun and shouted: "Listen to the order, kill into Chen Cang, and capture Hao Zhao alive!" ”

"Kill into Chen Cang and capture Hao Zhao alive..." The soldiers responded.

Under the leadership of Ma Yunlu, thousands of Xiliang troops rushed into Chencang City.

This moment.

The fortifications of the towers were useless, for the gates had been lost.

The iron rode into the city and rushed into the streets.

With the combat effectiveness of the Xiliang Army, as long as it can enter the city, it can basically be declared that Chen Cangcheng is the Xiliang Army, and Hao Zhao has no possibility of turning the tables.

But... Until now, Hao Zhao has not conceded defeat.

"Brethren, we must not withdraw. Once we leave the city, we will be pursued and killed by the Xiliang army, and there will be no place to bury us. Since the city tower has been lost, he retreated to the city and fought with the Xiliang army. Obey my orders and go into the city! ”

Hao Zhao had no other way but to trap the beast and fight.

Maybe Cao Jun can have the upper hand in street fighting, but in the end, Chen Cang is still Ma Chao's, which he knows very well. Even so, he won't admit defeat easily.

............

Hao Zhao soon entered the city.

Cao Jun followed him and also withdrew.

After Ma Yunlu came in, Yuan Xi took Ma Chao and joined her. Yuan Xi said: "This Hao Zhao is a general, and it will be a big trouble to keep it." If I can capture him alive, I will definitely take him back to Hebei. If you can't, find a way to kill him. ”

Ma Yunlu said: "Hao Zhao has no escape, he can only die... Or be captured alive. ”

"I've borrowed your good words." Yuan Xi glanced to the south and said: "Ma Dai is attacking the city with them, it is estimated that it is still fighting hard, you send a cavalry over, take it, let his troops also enter the city, and jointly besiege Hao Zhao with you." ”

"Yes."

Ma Chao only remembered that this siege battle was accompanied by Ma Dai.

In this way, Hao Zhao is really not simple, facing a two-sided attack, he has been defending for so long. If it weren't for the appearance of the giant beast, he really didn't dare to guarantee that he would be able to break the city.

Hao Zhao retreated to the city, relying on the streets and houses to launch a final resistance. Of course, before that, he sent people to the school field and dispersed the whole army.

and the granaries of the city, which kept only dry food, and the rest were burned by fire.

His purpose in doing this was to gamble that Yuan Xi was short of food and grass. If you can't get supplies from Chen Cangcheng, you can't continue to encircle and suppress him, and you can only withdraw your troops in the end. And then he was out of trouble.

Hao Zhao calculated, he would hold on for at least three days.

With three days of street fighting, the Xiliang army was forced back.

"Hao Zhao, you can't escape, why resist anymore? As long as you lay down your arms and submit to the lord, the lord will cherish your talents, not only will he not kill you, but he will also reuse you. Pound entered the city with a troop of cavalry and shouted as he passed through the streets.

These words fell on Hao Zhao's ears, and there was a hint of touch.

But in just a moment, he looked firm, and said in his heart: "You must not submit to Yuan Xi!" It's just a ploy by Pound to lure me in. Once I get out, I'll be dead! ”

The army walked through the streets.

Yuan Xi personally shouted: "General Hao Zhao, listen to me, abandon the darkness and turn to the light, which is your way out." I promise that as long as you take the initiative to submit, I will not blame the past, and I will reuse it for you. ”

"You have to think about your family, they are still waiting for you to return triumphantly. If you have an accident because of resistance, won't they die of grief? ”

Hao Zhao's thoughts in his heart were very chaotic.

On the one hand, he wanted to defend Chen Cang and be loyal to the imperial court.

On the other hand, he doesn't want to die at a young age, just like Yuan Xi's words, his mother is still waiting in Xuchang.

"General, when are we going to attack? The Xiliang army has already entered the ambush site. Adjutant General Guo Lin asked.

"Don't be in a hurry, listen to our orders." Hao Zhao hesitated.
