Chapter 363: Breaking Down Picheng

When Yuan Shujun withdrew his troops, Mi Zhu, who had received the news in Xiapi City, took his eyes off the table in front of him.

Today's battle outside the city he Mi Zhu also knows a thing or two, Cao Cao, Sun Jian has been defeated, Yuan Shu can be said to be able to attack Picheng without any scruples, and with the current situation in Picheng, under Yuan Shu's offensive can not hold out for a few days.

The most important thing is that Yuan Shu is the person of the Runan Yuan family, the Runan Yuan family is the first family in the world today, and there are countless protégés, and Chen Deng and Mi Zhu in Xiapi City today don't know how many people's hearts are standing with Yuan Shu.

Under the pressure of Yuan Shu's army in the city, if the city of Xiapi works together, maybe it will be able to get through this difficulty, but this is obviously impossible. As soon as the news of Cao Cao and Sun Jian's defeat by Yuan Shu spread, there were many people in Xiapi City who had different thoughts.

Of course, it is impossible for Mi Zhu to choose Yuan Shu, when Tao Qian died, or before Tao Qian died, Mi Zhu had already made his own choice, and this choice was not Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu is the concubine of the Yuan family in Runan, a pure family son, while Mi Zhu is a businessman. Shinong industry and commerce, Shi is the first and the business is the last, Yuan Shu, as the son of the family, cannot afford Mi Zhu, even if Mi Zhu dedicates Shangpicheng, or even the Mi family's Wanguan family wealth, he will not be reused under Yuan Shu.

Mi Zhu saw this very clearly from the beginning, and it was precisely because he saw this clearly that Mi Zhu denied Yuan Shu's choice from the beginning, and made another choice that was very suitable in Mi Zhu's opinion.

"Xuande Gong, I hope you hurry up, if it is a few more days slower, Picheng may be surnamed Yuan at this time, even I will not be able to turn the tables at that time."

Mi Zhu's gaze looked through the house and looked out of Xiapi City.

A few days ago, there were five forces in Xuzhou, including them, and among these five forces, only Liu Bei could attach importance to him and not despise him because of his merchant background. Because of this, Mi Zhu gambled the fate of himself and the Mi family on Liu Bei.

This is a big gamble, if the bet wins, the Mi family can get rid of the identity of a businessman, become a prince under the command of a minister, and once the bet is lost, the Mi family's family business will basically be lost, and even in such a whirlpool, the Mi family will be crushed.

But knowing the consequences, Mi Zhu still went to gamble, because he understood that if he wanted to realize the ambition in his heart, he had to gamble, and only by gambling could there be a glimmer of hope.

He Mi Zizhong didn't want to just become a businessman, even if the Mi family's wealth was now the top in the world under his management, Mi Zhu was still not satisfied with that.

On the first day of the siege of the city, Yuan Shu was just a temptation, and on the second and third days, Yuan Shu launched a fierce attack on Xiapi City, so at this time, Cao Cao and Sun Jian had already withdrawn from the scope of Xiapi City, and it was difficult to have any impact on the situation in Xiapi City, so that Yuan Shu could put all his mind on attacking Xiapi City.

The fierce attack of the soldiers of Yuan Shujun made Xiapi City crumbling, even if Chen Deng was good at defending the city, but under such an offensive, in just three days, Xiapi City was in danger of being broken.

Moreover, Yuan Shu not only simply attacked the city, but also asked Xun Yue to contact the family in Xiapi City, preparing to come to a meeting with the outside. Now, however, it seems that such a decision is unnecessary.

On the fourth day of Yuan Shu's army's attack on Picheng, this day was the most fierce day of Yuan Shu's army's siege of the city, and Yuan Shu even sent out the fierce generals of Xu Ding and Gao Cang, leaving only Ji Ling to sit in the three armies and Xu Chu to protect himself.

Gao Cang and Xu Ding are both fierce generals in the Ning Gang Realm, it can be said that they are brave and invincible, the two attacked at the same time, one with a gun, the other with a knife, and soon climbed from the top of the two cloud ladders to the city wall of Xiapi.

Gao Cang jumped, and his body fell to the city wall of Xiapi City, and at the same time, Zhenyue's spear swept away, sweeping away several Xuzhou soldiers who were stabbing at him with guns, their muscles and bones were shattered, and they were already alive.

In the face of these soldiers with ordinary strength, and did not form a military formation, Gao Cang had no fear, and did not even use any secret tricks, but simply attached the Gang Qi to the Zhenyue spear, swept left and right, and between a few breaths, at least dozens of Xuzhou soldiers died under Gao Cang's hands, allowing Gao Cang to clear a large open space above the city wall of Xia Pi City, so that more Yuan Shu troops could climb on the wall of Xia Pi City.

Gao Cang was mighty, on the other side, Xu Ding's performance was not bad, the red fang knife waved, and a ball of flames erupted, attacking a Xuzhou sergeant, under the high temperature and scorching, Xu Ding's lethality did not have to be much weaker.

Chen Deng saw Xu Ding and Gao Cang climb the city wall of Xiapi City, his face showed a look of rage, and with a flick of the long sword, a stream of blue water gathered on this long sword.

But at this moment, a series of wind blades suddenly formed in the sky above Xiapi City, falling towards the head of Xiapi City, so that Chen Deng had to give up his attack on Xu Ding and Gao Cang, and instead used the power of his soul to communicate the water power between heaven and earth, and at the same time, with the help of the power of the Xiapi City Protector Array, he built a blue water curtain with the wind of Xiapi City.

This blue water curtain seems to be weak, but it blocks all the wind blades above Xiapi City, so that these wind blades cannot fall to the head of Xiapi City and cause damage to the Xuzhou army.

These wind blades were recruited by Xun Yue and Yan Xiang outside Xiapi City, and they were swift and sharp, even if Chen Deng had a large protective array in Xiapi City that he could rely on, he needed to go all out to deal with it. And once Chen Deng began to deal with these wind blades, he would not have the spare energy to deal with Gao Cang and Xu Ding.

Without Chen Deng's move, Mi Zhu was not on the city wall, under the leadership of Gao Cang and Xu Ding, in less than half an hour of fierce battle, Yuan Shujun had completely occupied the head of Xiapi City. And Chen Deng foresaw this scene long before Gao Cang Xu Ding achieved this result, and after resisting a wave of attacks by Yan Xiang and Xun Yue, he withdrew the city wall and completely released the city wall of Xiapi City to Yuan Shujun.

In fact, Chen Deng is not unable to hold Xiapi City, but the price he needs to pay in that case is too great, now that Tao Qian is dead, Xuzhou has no owner, Chen Deng feels that the current Xuzhou is not worth doing like that, he also needs to think about himself.

After Chen Deng retreated, Gao Cang may have decided that the two of them would soon completely occupy the head of Xiapi City, and then Gao Cang led his troops to continue to advance into Xiapi City, while Xu Ding went down to open the gate of Xiapi City to welcome the main force of Yuan Shu's army into the city.

Seeing that the gate of Xiapi City was opened by Xu Ding, Yuan Shu had a smile on his face!
