Two days later, Cao Cao led the Chinese army to cross the river head-on, and ordered Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan to lead the two route armies to cross the river from the side, connecting more than 20 large ships with iron chains to cross the Yangtze River.

Liu Biao's subordinates also have tens of thousands of sailors, 20 warships, not much worse than Cao Cao, Liu Biao saw Cao Cao personally led a large army across the river, although he was cowardly, but he still ordered Zhang Yun to be the governor of the sailors, leading the navy to fight Cao Cao.

However, Cao Cao connected the warships together, moving forward smoothly and unstoppably, although most of Cao Cao's soldiers did not know how to wake up, but at this time the ships were stable and their morale was suddenly high. At the same time, the ship carried more than ten catapults, and as soon as they saw the Jingzhou Navy coming out, they immediately fired cannons and stones, and ten thousand arrows were fired at the same time.

Zhang Yun was not prepared, the Jingzhou naval army was suddenly caught off guard, unable to parry, Zhang Yun has been in a water battle for a long time, once led the army to exterminate Ganning's "Jinfan thief", although not victorious, but also never defeated, at this time after all, he was able to stabilize his mind, and hurriedly commanded the warships to counterattack, but except for the main ship and the frigates on both sides of the catapult, the rest of the ships did not have any, so they had to use bows and arrows to counterattack.

How could the attack power of the three catapults and bows and arrows of the Jingzhou Navy be able to defeat Cao Cao's more than ten catapults and bows and arrows in a volley, and for a moment of battle, seven or eight Jingzhou warships were hit by the slings and leaked and sank. Although two of the warships of Cao Cao's navy were hit, the Cao army's warships were connected with iron chains, and although one ship leaked and sank, it was harmless, and the soldiers on board could quickly transfer to other ships.

The fierce battle was only half an hour, and the Jingzhou Navy was wiped out, but fortunately, the soldiers of the Jingzhou Navy were all good at water, and no one drowned, only was stoned to death or shot by a bow and arrow, but even so, more than half of it was lost. And Cao Cao's sailors only sank four ships, although they were not good at water, but none of them drowned, and only more than a thousand people died in battle.

Liu Biao was frightened, so frightened that his soul was not possessed, and he hurriedly ordered to defend the city.

At the same time that Cao Cao led the Chinese army ashore, Xiahoudun and Xiahou Yuan had also led the army ashore and copied Jingzhou City from two loaves, and for a time Cao Cao surrounded Jingzhou City with 150,000 troops. Liu Biao didn't dare to fight, but he just couldn't defend it.

And Cao Cao would not be reluctant to attack the city like Zhao Xu, knowing that Liu Biao was just defending to the death, he no longer waited, and sent troops to attack the city early the next morning. Although Cao Cao did not have the complete siege equipment of Zhao Xu's army, he still had more than a dozen catapults, a number of siege vehicles and a large number of ladders.

On that day, Cao Cao led a large army to attack the city, and his eight generals, Xu Huang, Xu Chu and other generals all went on the field and attacked on all sides. In the fierce battle, Cao Cao's men suffered more than 10,000 casualties, and the losses in Jingzhou City were comparable to Cao Cao's. But at this time, the moat of Jingzhou City had been filled in by corpses, and the city walls had been damaged many times.

It's a pity that Cao Cao didn't have the kind of crossbow in Zhao Xu's army, otherwise, with crossbow arrows concentrated on one side, under the cover of catapults is enough to suppress the defenders at the head of the city, and the infantry can also use ladders to climb the city under the cover of arrow rain, and siege vehicles can also take advantage of the situation to attack the city gate. If there is such firepower, Jingzhou will be able to break through in a few days, and the casualties will not be so large.

Jingzhou was besieged, Liu Biao could not sit in the palace and wait for the news of the war, mobilized the officials and soldiers of the city, all climbed the city wall to resist the enemy, Liu Biao personally sat at the north gate, boosted morale, and commanded the army to confront Cao Cao head-on.

But the north, west, and south are not the main attack, the Cao army attack at the east gate is the most intense, the Cao army almost climbed the city wall several times, fortunately, the east gate is guarded by Wen Ping, Wen Ping martial arts may not be Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other top generals of the opponent, but it is also a super first-class level, not much worse, but also a general. Although the enemy attacked fiercely, he still took advantage of the existing conditions in the city, a large number of shields barely blocked the rain of stones and arrows, under several battles, and accurately grasped the rhythm of the Cao army's attack, at the moment when the Cao army landed in the city, a large amount of boiling water, boiling oil was dumped, and then with rolling logs, boulders smashed down, five or six times in a row to block the Cao army's fierce attack.

"General Wen, the Cao army is besieging on all sides, the attack is fierce, and our army has suffered great casualties, especially our east gate, which is particularly fierce, I am afraid that I will not be able to withstand it!" Liu Qi was also so frightened by this fierce scene that he trembled and said to Wen Ping.

"Childe doesn't have to worry, the last general will guarantee with his life, and he will definitely be able to keep it." Although Wen Ping struggled to resist, he was afraid that Liu Qi's words would shake the hearts of the army, so he swore an oath.

Wen Ping looked at the fierce attack of the Cao army outside the city, and couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart, as if such a lifeless attack, whether he could hold it, he really didn't dare to guarantee, looking at Liu Qi's frightened expression, he hurriedly said: "Childe, as the eldest son, you should follow the lord's side, you can rest assured here, everything has me." ”

"Oh! General Wen, be careful! Liu Qi had long wanted to leave this tragic place, but as the eldest son, he was responsible, and he didn't dare to flee in a fight.

At the north gate of Jingzhou, Cao Cao personally pressed the formation. But the attack was not very violent, and Liu Biao was sitting at the head of the city and could resist it.

Cao Cao couldn't help but feel a little anxious when he saw it, got up and shouted: "Attack!" Attack, brethren! Jingzhou city is about to break, after the city is broken, the whole army has a reward, three days off, five days of celebration, the first hundred people in front of the city, the official is promoted to three levels, and the reward is one hundred taels of silver. ”

Cao Cao's order was immediately spread everywhere, and at this time, the soldiers of the North Gate heard Cao Cao's order, their morale increased greatly, and they shouted: "Kill!" "Inspired by the material, the soldiers attacked with all their might and slaughtered the city.

At this time, the battle at the East Gate was much more tense, and the three generals of the East Gate, Xu Huang, Xu Chu, Cao Ren, and Wei Yan, were in charge, leading troops to attack the city fiercely.

Wen Ping carried a round shield in his left hand and a golden gun in his right hand to defend himself against the enemy on the city wall, constantly encouraging his soldiers.

"Brothers, this is Cao Jun's dying struggle, withstand a few more waves, Cao Jun will collapse, and work harder, resist me, resist me! Let Cao Jun see the good skills of our Jingzhou boys. ”

Beat Cao Jun back six times in a row, and all the soldiers were also a little tired, but at the moment of life and death, no one dared to say that they were tired. Beat this group of thieves back, and let Cao Jun see how powerful we are. ”

Wen Ping silently counted the time of Cao's attack, fending off the flying stones and bows and arrows that were thrown. Hearing that the offensive had slowed down, he immediately shouted: "Brothers, pay attention! The enemy is about to enter the city! Get ready! ”

"Sword and shield soldier prepare!"

"Boiling oil and boiling water ready!"

"Let these thieves taste the gifts we have for them."

With Wen Ping's order, the already skilled soldiers immediately stood up and fought back.

"Cao Jun is here, hurry!"

"Cao Jun barbarians, look at the gifts given by grandpa, and pour oil."

"Whoa..."

"Whew... Hiss..."

"Ah......h

"Straight lady thief, if you can survive this time, you won't eat fried things again, it's really fucking disgusting." A general smelled the smell of boiling oil in the air, and scolded with a disgusting face.

But Cao Jun seems to have put life and death out of the way, a wave falls, a wave rises, just keep attacking the city, the siege vehicles are also constantly attacking the city gate, and there are bursts of "boom... block...".

Accustomed to war and blood, the soldiers have long been immune to these things, and at the moment of siege, the death of their comrades is not enough to shake the hearts of the soldiers, and their nerves have become numb, and they only want to get to the top of the city as soon as possible.

I have to say that the siege warfare in ancient times was indeed cruel, but the man-head tactics were really effective for siege, especially the siege on all sides, which was easy to shake the military spirit of the defenders. Under the fierce attack of the Cao army, the city wall of Jingzhou East City has been damaged, and the city gate seems to be unable to support, but fortunately, the Cao army has not yet climbed the city.

"Brothers! Kill! Beat this group of thieves down. Wen Ping shouted at the head of the city, and was stabbing to death a Cao soldier who was about to enter the city, when suddenly a stone that had been thrown down flew up, and was smashing on the head of a soldier, and was immediately smashed into meat paste, Wen Ping was secretly frightened, and when he looked again, he suddenly saw an extremely majestic man on the head of the city, with a strong and fierce appearance, holding an iron chain in one hand and a nine-ring steel knife in the other, like a demon coming to the world, it was terrifying to see.

A few soldiers were about to go up and beat the big man, but the evil man turned the chain, caught a few soldiers, and threw a few soldiers down the city. Wen Ping was secretly frightened, this evil man had so much strength, he knew that Xun * was not an opponent, and was about to go up to fight with the evil man, when he suddenly saw the evil man holding a steel knife and rushing towards him.

Wen Ping was startled, hurriedly raised his gun, and with a piercing sound of "bell ......", he saw Wen Ping's hands trembling, his mouth hurt, and he retreated five or six steps in a row.

Wen Ping must be a god, shocked in his heart, and shouted: "I have heard for a long time that there is a tiger general under Cao Cao's account, and he is a tiger idiot, is it a tiger idiot Xu Chu?" ”

"Your grandfather is the tiger idiot Xu Chu, don't talk nonsense, look at the knife!" Xu Chu shouted, couldn't help but speak, and slashed straight at Wen Ping's head.

Wen Ping knew that the enemy general was extremely powerful, and he was not an opponent, so he didn't dare to go head-to-head, so he hurriedly flashed to the side and flashed Xu Chu with a knife.

Xu Chu roared angrily and shouted: "Can the puppet only dodge? The day before yesterday, I saw you fighting with that Wei Yan, and I thought it was a powerful character, but it turned out to be just a coward, in this case, Hugh blames your tiger idiot grandfather for being ruthless, look at the knife! ”

Wen Ping was furious, but he didn't dare to slack off, so he immediately used his housekeeping skills "one-handed eighteen picks" to fight the enemy with speed and skill.

Xu Chu made such a breakthrough, Wen Ping was also entangled by Xu Chu, and there was a flaw in the city, and for a while, with Xu Chu's majesty, Cao Jun continued to climb the city wall and launched a fierce hand-to-hand battle with Jingzhou soldiers.

"The tiger idiot is rampant, look at how powerful your grandfather is hired." Wen Ping was originally a speed-type general, although his speed was not as fast as Zhao Yun's forty rounds to defeat Xu Chu with extremely fast marksmanship, but it was not worse than Xu Chu, and the two were entangled together for a while.

Wen Ping used one-handed eighteen picks, extremely fast, although Xu Chu was brave, but Wen Ping's marksmanship was wonderful and fast, Xu Chu was not a bad body of King Kong, and he had to return to the knife to defend,

Xu Chu was secretly frightened, admiring Wen Ping's wonderful marksmanship, and suddenly the killing intent in his heart fluctuated, and the green tendons all over his body burst out, and the nine-ring steel knife opened and closed towards Wen Ping. Wen Ping did not confront Xu Chu directly, but only used skills to fight the enemy, and the battle was level for a while.

Xu Chu is a strength-type general, and it is inevitable that he is lacking in speed, but Xu Chu has a physical advantage, although Wen Ping has a very fast gun speed and wonderful marksmanship, but Xu Chu is just blindly defensive, and he can't help him; Even if Xu Chu can't gain the upper hand, he won't be defeated.

The two fought for 60 rounds in a row, and there was no winner or loser. But at this time, more and more Cao soldiers climbed to the top of the city, and Wen Ping did not dare to fight, so he shook a shot, jumped out of the circle, and went to kill the Cao soldiers.

"Phew! Where to go! ”
