Chapter 144: Divine Weapon
Huang Zhong's dragon sword technique is endless, Sun Ce has never seen such a subtle martial art when he is young, the spear pierced into Huang Zhong's knife style as if it was stabbed into the mud, and he suddenly lost his strength. Sun Ce's spear in his left hand was pulled out of his hand, and Sun Ce's subordinates Sun He, Cheng Pu, and Han Dang hurriedly led the army to rescue.
Huang Zhong was outnumbered and in danger, Chen Wu rushed with a spear and held Sun He's lance, Huang Zhong breathed a sigh of relief and retreated while fighting. Cheng Pu's iron-spine snake spear stabbed at Chen Wu again, Chen Wu drove his horse to raise his front hooves to dodge, and then swept towards Cheng Pu and Sun He, swinging away their stabbing weapons and retreating backwards.
Seeing this, Jiang Qin also led his subordinates to retreat into the city in a hurry, and after Jiang Qin came in, Han Xuan asked people to pull up the drawbridge and close the city gate. The logistics soldiers brought drinking water to the generals and let them rest well.
Han Xuan said with emotion: "Sun Ce is really brave, and he will pacify Jiangdong's biggest opponent for me in the future." β
Huang Zhong drank a bowl of water and said: "Sun Ce Yongwu is not under Sun Jian, but he is still young. If I wait for his martial arts to break through in the future, I am afraid I will not be able to defeat it. β
Han Xuanxin said that as soon as the army of Qiaorui and the siege equipment arrived, Sun Ce was determined to attack the city, and Sun Ce's soldiers were brave and brave, so it was inevitable that it would be another bloody battle. Han Xuan asked the army to eat and rest first, and the big war was coming.
Sun Ce saw the smoke rising from the city of Wancheng, and knew that Han Xuan's army was eating, and Sun Ce hurriedly ordered the army to attack. Han Xuanjun saw Sun Ce's sudden attack, and many people were caught off guard and failed to return to their posts in time, so Sun Ce's soldiers rushed up.
Han Xuan personally drew his sword and killed two Sun Ce soldiers, and ordered the soldiers not to panic and take up arms to meet the enemy. Huang Zhong, Chen Wu, Jiang Qin, and Zhou Tai also hurriedly came to support, and Han Xuan personally fought on the front line, killing more than a dozen enemy soldiers and making him covered in blood.
Sun Cejun was finally repelled by Han Xuan's army, and Han Xuan and the others were able to breathe a sigh of relief. Han Xuan learned this lesson and told the soldiers to sit on their backs, they did not dare to relax, and they were strictly defensive at night. Most of Han Xuan's soldiers were exhausted, but at this time, Sun Ce let his soldiers rest well.
Before dawn, Sun Ce waved his army to attack the city again, and Han Xuan's soldiers were so sleepy that they wanted to sleep. Sun Ce's soldiers were fierce one by one, and Sun Ce personally rushed to the city wall. Sun Ce held a shield in one hand and an ancient ingot knife in the other, setting off a bloody storm on the city wall.
Han Xuan's corporal couldn't resist Sun Ce, Sun Ce led his troops to rush to Han Xuan's approach, and Han Xuan raised his sword to fight Sun Ce. Han Xuan stabbed Sun Ce in the throat with a sword, Sun Ce slashed backwards, and at the same time swung the ancient ingot knife in his hand at Han Xuan's chest.
The ancient ingot knife is a sword forged by Sun Jian, named a knife, but it is actually similar in shape to a sword. The ancient ingot knife sharpened iron like clay, and Han Xuan's armor collided with it and made a noise, and Han Xuan's armor was just split.
Han Xuan hurriedly retreated, and Han Xuan's guards Jia Hua and Song Qian were entangled by Han Dang and Sun He, and they couldn't come to the rescue. Seeing that Han Xuan was in danger, the two Shadow Tiger Army members rolled over on the ground and shot two crossbow arrows at Sun Ce. Sun Ce dodged one arrow sideways, and then swept away an arrow with the ancient ingot knife.
Sun Ce hesitated for a moment and rushed towards Han Xuan, the two Shadow Tiger Army members engaged him with short knives, and Sun Ce killed the two of them in a few moves. Fortunately, Chen Wu, who was fighting with Sun Ce's army not far away, saw Han Xuan being pursued by Sun Ce, and hurriedly shot Sun Ce.
Chen Wu didn't dare to slack off, Sun Ce was a brave general who even Huang Zhong had to take seriously, and directly used the first three styles of the Panlong Sword Technique, and the two of them fought with one gun and one sword for twenty times without winning or losing. Sun Ce killed several Han Xuan's soldiers who came to make trouble, and one of Sun Ce's own soldiers was also stabbed to death where Chen Wu's spear was covered.
After that, the two fought together, and no soldier dared to step forward to enter the battle group again, Chen Wu was no match for Sun Ce in the end. Chen Wu's marksmanship was gradually cracked by Sun Ce, and the marksmanship was chaotic, at this time Zhang Zhao and Lu Fan came over with reserves to support, and seeing the swarming Han Xuan's army coming, Sun Ce had to lead the army to retreat.
After Sun Cejun retreated from the city wall, Han Xuan asked people to clean up the corpses on the city wall, and pushed Sun Cejun's bamboo ladder and wooden ladder with forked hands. Han Xuanchao, Zhang Zhao and Lu Fan sighed: "Fortunately, Zibu and Ziheng led their troops to rescue in time, otherwise Anhui City would be in danger." It was my carelessness to underestimate the enemy, and I never thought that this Sun Ce was also a brave and resourceful person. β
LΓΌ Fan suggested that Han Xuan ask the sergeant to prepare hot oil, and when Sun Ce's army came to attack the city again, he would fall down the bamboo ladder. If Sun Ce's soldiers are not scalded to death, they will also be frightened so that they dare not easily climb the city wall.
Han Xuan thought it was feasible, and when he poured the hot oil, he set it on fire, and when the oil burned, the bamboo ladder and the wooden ladder were burned, and Sun Ce's soldiers could not climb the city wall. Zhang Zhao strongly objected, he thought that it was too cruel to pour hot oil to burn the soldiers, although it was an enemy soldier, it was also unkind.
Han Xuan had no choice but to give up and let Huang Ergou lead the sergeants of the Seven Killing Battalion to transport the bed crossbow to the city wall, but the catapult was too huge to transport. Han Xuan asked people to prepare more giant crossbow arrows, and Sun Cejun would shoot him when he came to attack the city again!
Zhang Zhao saw that Han Xuan was covered in blood, for fear that he would be injured, and admonished: "The main general is the position of planning, and the fate of the three armies is all in his hands. Don't be rash and fight against mere little Kou in person. I hope that the lord will cherish the talents given by God and the will of the world, and do not let the whole army worry about the danger of the main public security. β
Han Xuan didn't want to go into battle in person, but few of the generals under his command could take charge alone, only Xu Rong could reassure him, and Xu Rong was still leading his troops to stay in Songzi County with Yang Ling.
Han Xuan smiled at Zhang Zhao and said: "Zibu said that Xuan should keep it in mind, but Sun Ce is not a mere coward, and I am not a brave and ruthless person." Just to prevent the city from losing, Xuan had to go to the front line in person to boost the morale of the army. β
Zhang Zhao had no choice but to bow down and retire, and together with Lu Fan, he was in charge of the affairs of the city and ensured the logistics supply of Han Xuan's army. It didn't take long for the Qiaorui army to drive to the city of Wancheng, and Han Xuan had a headache when he looked at the black pressure under the city. There are more than 10,000 people boundless, and he has to divide his troops to defend Xunyang and Songzi County, and after the great battle, there are only a few thousand defenders left in Anhui City.
The black clouds overwhelmed the city and wanted to destroy it, and Han Xuan asked people to carry the war drums and personally beat the drums to boost morale. Qiao Rui drew his sword and pointed at the city, ordering the whole army to attack the city, and Yuan Shu's soldiers rushed over with a series of ladders.
Han Xuan asked the sergeant of the Seven Killing Battalion to move the bed crossbow to aim at the bridge, and several strong soldiers brought a two-meter giant arrow to load, and they pulled it away with all their might. The arrow flew towards the bridge, piercing through the bridge's mount, and the horse on which the bridge was riding fell to the ground and died.
Qiao Rui was shocked and said: "I don't want Han Xuan's army to have such a sharp weapon, I can shoot this giant arrow hundreds of steps away." If it weren't for the great fortune of the general, the person who fell to the ground and died this time would be so-and-so. β
Qiao Rui hurriedly ordered the whole army to retreat, and Sun Ce, who was attacking the fortification, heard that Qiao Rui Mingjin had withdrawn his troops, and hurriedly led his troops to retreat. Sun Ce returned to the camp and asked Qiao Rui: "I led my troops to attack the city wall, why did the general suddenly withdraw his troops?" β
Qiao Rui was still afraid for a while when he recalled it: "There is a giant crossbow in Han Xuan's army, which almost killed the general's life. β
Sun Ce disagreed, and rebuked: "The bed crossbow has existed in ancient times, but it is too heavy and cannot shoot at the target. Thinking that Han Xuan's army must only have this one bed crossbow, it was an accident to shoot the general's mount this time. We and other people who fight on the battlefield should have the ambition of the horse leather shroud, why are we afraid of a crossbow? β
Qiao Rui snorted coldly: "Sun Ce, you are the son of General Sun Wentai, you don't want to gain an inch." The general is the key point of the three armies, and if there is a loss, the army will collapse without a fight. β
Sun Ce and Qiao Rui quarreled endlessly, and the two gave up under Cheng Pu's persuasion.
And Han Xuan saw that the bed crossbow failed to kill Qiao Rui with one arrow, and sighed to Huang Ergou: "The bed crossbow still needs to be improved, it is only less than 400 meters, and the accuracy is not satisfactory." β
Huang Ergou's face was embarrassed, this bed crossbow was already his proud work, but he didn't expect it to satisfy Han Xuan, so he asked Han Xuan: "Lord, can you change the bed crossbow to a continuous crossbow to replace the range of crossbow arrows with the speed of firing crossbow arrows?" β
