The scorching sun scorched the earth, causing a hazy heat to rise from the ground, making people feel sticky and uncomfortable even if they were motionless.

Soldier after soldier consumes his life on this meat grinder-like battlefield.

On the battlefield, the tragedy is incomparable, every day there will be thousands of soldiers on both sides of the enemy and our side, turned into bones, many soldiers who died under the city for many days without collecting the corpses, a long time stinking to the sky.

Compared with the kind of war with bullets and bullets in later generations, the battle presented in front of Gao Zhi's eyes at this moment shocked him even more.

It's not like a movie from later generations, the stump and broken arm here are absolutely fake, staring at the tiger prison wall in the distance, a Danyang soldier who took the lead along the ladder saw that he was heavy with several knives, and knew that there was no chance of survival, so he pounced on the hostile Lu Bu soldier, rolled off the city wall with him, and fell to the ground.

And this is just a wisp of feathers in many scenes.

The battle is the momentum, the more you rush forward, the more vigorous the momentum, looking at the dense below, the army in front of you, even the gate guard order can't help but sigh secretly, I'm afraid I have to explain here today.

As the saying goes, providence is like a knife, difficult to prevent.

The number of soldiers of the alliance army is indeed very large, especially after the alliance leader Yuan Shao gave the first person to capture the city and reward the general with a hundred gold seals, the impact became more and more violent.

It's just that as a Xiliang sergeant who once fought all the way from the desolate land of the northwest, he is not a bear bag, and he is also eager for combat achievements.

Therefore, when the first Union soldier climbed to the top of the city, he looked sideways and gasped, only to see that the city walls were full of archers, all waiting for arrows.

Mougins is silent!

Those Alliance soldiers who had just shouted loudly and had a rainbow of momentum were also pale at the moment, and no matter who was pointed at by thousands of crossbows, they would be extremely frightened in their hearts.

"The thief army came suddenly, although exhausted but vigorous, you can't touch it, everyone, do you know that one go, again and again, again and again, three and exhaustion?"

Xu Rong looked carefully, waved his right hand, and drank, "Drumming!" "Alert!" With his shout, the soldiers on the city wall drew their bows and raised their crossbows.

"Whoa!" A volley of fire was fired with lightning speed, and suddenly the screams of the coalition troops rang out, especially the people who rushed to the front, who were actually hit by dozens of arrows all over their bodies, and they howled miserably.

"Knock knock!"

At the front pass, Lu Bu stood proudly, like a tiger in the valley, and suddenly let out a huge roar with the qi of the dantian, and the Kwantung soldiers who were still imposing like a rainbow just now suddenly lost momentum, and their speed slowed down significantly.

As soon as Lu Bu came out, the momentum of the Xiliang soldiers on the Tiger Prison suddenly rose sharply, and the faces of the soldiers of the Kwantung Coalition who were besieging the city were afraid.

From Lu Bu led the army to retreat into the Tiger Prison Pass, the east gate of the Tiger Prison was suddenly closed, and the drawbridge was pulled up, and the alliance army had been attacking for several hours, killing and wounding countless people and horses, but the strong city was still standing still...

Finally, the leading generals, still unable to withstand the heavy casualties, ordered a retreat.

Behind him, hundreds of drummers and trumpeters were now exhausted, and the battle had lasted for a long time, and their physical strength began to appear exhausted, and another retreat in front of them discouraged them, and the sound of drums and trumpets was lowered. The rhythmic and high drum beat on the head of the city was like a sharp knife piercing the hearts of Yuan Shao and many princes.........

Rao was just watching the battle on the city wall from a distance, and their faces were getting more and more ugly. Originally, he wanted to take advantage of Lu Bu's retreat today, and the opportunity to attack tentatively won the Tiger Prison Pass in one fell swoop.

Now it seems that we have to wait for the next opportunity.

After roughly assessing the casualties, in the end, the Coalition Army still chose to withdraw its troops.

Suddenly, including the soldiers besieging the city and the Xiliang soldiers defending the city, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

You must know that soldiers who are wounded on the battlefield are not allowed to leave the battlefield, so as not to shake the morale of the army, and they can be treated until the end of the battle, so that many seriously injured soldiers have died due to excessive blood loss. It was the officers who were brought in, except for those who were seriously wounded, who were mostly hastily bandaged and returned to the battlefield.

At this time, the surgical operation was not developed, mainly because there was no way to stop the bleeding, and most of the injuries caused by weapons were the use of gold medicine, and it was enough to bandage it, and many of the casualties were not directly killed on the battlefield, but due to the delay in rescue, life and death from pain and disease.

Being able to retreat earlier is a guarantee for them, the grassroots soldiers.

Looking at the Kwantung Alliance Army retreating like a tide under the city wall, the deputy general of the tiger prison wiped the mixture of blood and sweat on his forehead and said, "It seems that the enemy has retreated!" ”

"Don't take it lightly and impose martial law quickly." Xu Rong clenched the two Pu knives that had been dyed red in his hands, panting, frowning and looking at the vicinity of the city gate, it was really a river of blood, and he sighed and said, "Send someone to clean it up!" ”

At the same time, the princes of the alliance army were also distressed.

Especially the princes who were in charge of this general attack, Yuzhou Assassin Shi Kong Ling, Yanzhou Assassin Shi Liu Dai and Xuzhou Mu Taoqian!

When calculating the casualties, Tao Qian was also shocked, in the face of his own Danyang elite, these Xiliang soldiers who defended the city, could they actually exchange one for one?

This is something he has never encountered since Tao Qian led the Xuzhou army!

However, the road to the Tiger Prison was finally cleared, Tao Qian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he still had more than 4,000 Danyang elite soldiers, and the periphery of the East Gate of the Tiger Prison was obviously insufficient, and the other three gates were estimated to be the same, plus the follow-up army of hundreds of thousands, the Tiger Prison Pass City was broken!

"Drink!" Looking at the soldiers of the Kwantung Alliance who were slowly retreating outside the Tiger Prison Pass, Lu Bu slammed the halberd into the ground, took a deep breath and said, "Wenyuan, let the soldiers be fed, and I will attack the enemy army tonight!" ”

"Yes!" Zhang Liao's head took orders, and he didn't ask the reason, and went straight down to make arrangements.

·······

On the night of early spring, it is still a little cold to say that it is not cold, the sky is dark and boundless, there is no starlight at all, only the moonlight that is absent.

Xu Rong made a round tour of the other three walls, carefully observing whether there were any gaps in the defenses. However, the results of the inspection were quite gratifying, because the attack of the alliance army was tentative, and no large siege equipment was used, so the city wall was intact.

However, Xu Rong knows that tomorrow will never be so easy. He ordered the men who remained on duty to rest on the castle tower after the rest of the soldiers who had been fighting for a day, in case of a possible night sneak attack by the Coalition forces. And he himself sat on duty in the front tower.

Late at night, the blood-baptized Tiger Prison is still standing. !!
