"Boom! --Boom! Boom! ”

"Kill! --Kill! Kill! ”

…………………………

Outside Shouchun City, the flags fluttered, the war drums were like thunder, tens of thousands of Jiangdong athletes lined up neatly, put out an attack formation, they were sixteen people in a group, all wearing thick cowhide armor, holding a long knife in one hand, carrying a ladder in the other, ready to launch a fierce attack, and thousands of archers stood behind, responsible for providing cover!

At the same time, in the loud sound of 'rumbling', a heavy 'sharp angle crash' also appeared, seven zhang long, three zhang wide, two zhang high, weighing more than 10,000 catties, requiring hundreds of soldiers to push together, the roof of the car is paved with three layers of buffalo leather, thick and tough, can resist bows and arrows, knives and guns, stones...... Ordinary weapons are useless against it, and its defense is extremely strong!

There are eight bowl-thick iron chains on both sides of the collision, hanging a four-zhang long, water tank thickness of the iron pomegranate, the weight is also more than two thousand catties, the front end has been sharpened, but also wrapped in a thick iron sheet, swinging up hard before and after, each blow has a thousand powers, can smash the two-foot thick city gate, can be called a big weapon for siege!

"Today's siege must be successful, the first warrior to climb the city wall, reward 500 taels of gold, 100 tops of the best paddy fields, 10 stunning beauties, whether you can enjoy the glory and wealth, it depends on your skills...... Kill! ”

Responsible for commanding the siege, it is the fierce general - Tai Shici, in terms of martial arts and courage, in the Jiangdong Army can enter the top three, at this time carrying a pair of iron halberds, issued a heavy reward, boosted morale, and then issued an order to attack!

"Kill! - There is no advance or retreat, conquer Shouchun! ”

"Rush! - Glory and wealth, the brave get it! ”

Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men, Jiangdong athletes shouted loudly, launched a fierce attack, it was already the middle of winter, the moat was all formed into thick ice, people and horses trampled over, quickly came to the city wall, the soldiers erected hundreds of ladders, began to climb up, the archers followed, frantically threw arrows, shot the defenders above!

"Roar! …… Roar! Roar! ”

At the same time, hundreds of soldiers worked together to push the 'sharp corner crash car' to the bottom of the city, and pulled the cowhide rope behind them together, and began to violently hit the city gate.

"Don't retreat, defend the city wall, and swear to live and die with Shouchun City - kill!"

In the face of fierce attacks, the defenders did not show weakness, desperately resisted on the city wall, falling rocks like rain, flying arrows like locusts, giant rolling logs smashed down, a roll is a large piece of meat mud, and then pull the iron chains at both ends, pull back to the city head, this weapon can be used repeatedly......

As for the 'sharp angle collision' of the siege of the city, the defenders also have a way, and it is difficult for ordinary weapons to hurt it, so it is burned with fire, and the liquor that becomes a jar is thrown down, and a few rockets are fired, and the city gate suddenly burst into flames, and the Jiangdong soldiers who pushed the cart cried wolf howls, and many people were burned to charcoal, and the death was unbearable!

"Brothers, follow me, man, great man, make a contribution, today!"

Seeing that the attack was repeatedly frustrated, Tai Shici also turned red, threw off his helmet, brandished a pair of iron halberds, shouted loudly, and led his soldiers into battle!

"Kill! --Kill! Kill! ”

There will be a certain heart of death, no greed for life, Tai Shici as a general, but still in person in the battle array, do not avoid arrows, others have nothing to fear, Jiangdong Army morale greatly boosted, continue to attack the city bravely, one after another, death does not look back, finally broke through a few city walls, and the defenders started hand-to-hand combat!

For a time, swords and guns were like a forest, arrows were flying, and the battle situation quickly entered the white heat, the Jiangdong army became more and more courageous, and soon occupied several stomps, and reinforcements continued to pour in, ready to grab the city tower in one fell swoop, and then open the city gate, and receive the brigade of men and horses to kill in......

"Whoosh! Sou! …… People are in the city, fighting to the death, and vowing to live and die with Shouchun...... Kill! ”

On the battlefield, the Jiangdong Army was about to be completed, and a group of people suddenly poured into the city, the leader - clothed and scattered, shirtless, holding two ghost head knives, slashing and killing, like a mad tiger, it was the guard general - Zhang Liao, followed by dozens of personal soldiers, also wielding blades, fighting bravely!

The two sides have been fighting fiercely for more than a month, and the defenders of Shouchun have suffered heavy casualties, and dozens of people are difficult to recover the situation, but the next scene made everyone stunned, only to see hundreds of people rushing to the city, armed with rudimentary weapons, wooden forks, sticks, hoes, pickaxes...... Together with the soldiers of the Cao Army, fight bravely to kill the enemy and protect your hometown!

Shouchun County has a large population and abundant products, and is famous as the 'land of fish and rice', but in the years when Yuan Shu was in power, he was brutal and unkind, profligate, and had many exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes.

Since the defeat of Yuan Shu, everything has changed, Cao Cao has imposed benevolent levies, reduced taxes, encouraged farming, and distributed cattle, seeds, and farm tools free of charge...... In the year of the famine, the government also opened a porridge field to relieve a large number of people, and after a few years, the Huainan area gradually recovered, and the people had the joy of life!

As the so-called '**************', the people of Huainan live and work in peace and contentment, and they are naturally very grateful to Prime Minister Cao, so they spontaneously organized to help Cao Jun stick to the city and resist the invasion of outsiders, and also to protect their peaceful life!

"Kill! Kill! …… Fight and die together! ”

As the saying goes, 'one man is desperate, ten people are hard to beat', the people are not trained, and the weapons in their hands are also very simple, but the fight is extremely fierce, not hesitating to exchange injuries for injuries, fighting for their lives, and even jumping off the city wall with the Jiangdong army, all of them fell to pieces, relying on this kind of 'same end' ruthlessness, they simply recaptured the city tower and suppressed the enemy back!

"Woo! --Woo! Woo!

Seeing that his subordinates suffered heavy casualties, and the sharp corner crash was also burned, even if Tai Shici was unwilling, he had to give an order to retreat, the tenacious spirit of the defenders, Zhang Liao's courage and fearlessness, and the people of Shouchun sacrificed their lives to help the war, it was really a big surprise, since ancient times, it is easy to capture the city, but it is difficult to conquer the hearts of the people!

…………………………………………………………………………………………

"Shouchun City is strong, the defenders are tenacious and dare to fight, our army has been attacking for a long time, once the division veterans are tired and their spirit is exhausted, I'm afraid something will not be good!"

Shouchun City South - Jiangdong Army Tent, knowing that the attack was frustrated again, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu glanced at each other, and shook their heads with a wry smile, since the Northern Expedition of the Great Army, the momentum along the way has been like a bamboo, and the enemy army has surrendered either to death, but I didn't expect that under Shouchun City, the people and horses have been blocked for more than a month, it is really a hard bone to gnaw!

There are two main reasons why the offensive is so unsmooth, one is that Shouchun is Yuan Shu's old nest, operating for many years, the city defense is strong, after Cao Jun took over, he further strengthened the defense, added a double-layer arrow tower, built four urn cities, and dug six trenches...... The defense is impenetrable, and there is no flaw to be found!

Second, it is the guard general Zhang Liao, this person is brave and strategic, loves soldiers like a son, and his subordinates are willing to fight to the death, and the people have also ascended the city to help, and they are united as one, repelling more than a dozen attacks by the Jiangdong Army, and they are holding the city!

Sun Ce also admired such a general, and wanted to recruit him and collect it for his own use, so he specially sent a messenger to persuade him to surrender with a heavy gift, and promised a lot of benefits, but as a result, Zhang Liao accepted the gift, but threw out the head of the envoy, and showed with practical actions - to defend the city and never surrender!

After Sun Ce and Zhou Yu discussed, they decided to lure Cao Jun out, set up a heavy ambush, and killed Zhang Liao in the field battle, and Shouchun City was self-defeating, the plan was good, but it was too difficult to implement......

In order to lure the snake out of the hole, the Jiangdong Army used all kinds of methods, such as challenges, scolding, cheating, abandoning grain trucks, and camouflaging reinforcements...... Just get a few beauties, dance a lot, and implement ****!

However, you have a thousand strategies, I have certain rules, no matter how the Jiangdong army provokes, Zhang Liao is like a 'turtle' possessed, he just refuses to fight, and passes down the order: "Up and down are concentric, defend the city, Da Sima reinforcements will not be opened for a day, and the gate of Shouchun will not be opened for a day!" ”

The defenders can't lure it out, Shouchun City is difficult to overcome, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu's troubles are not only these, but there are three things that make them headaches:

First, Xuzhou Thorn History-Chen Qun came to the rescue of Shouchun, this old fox does not go to war directly, that is, he sends rangers to harass every day, touches a sentry today, burns a few tents tomorrow, and starts on the grain and grass cart the day after tomorrow, never stops more every time, takes advantage of a little bit and leaves, and the Jiangdong Army is angry and annoyed, but there is nothing to be done!

Send a large team of people to fight, people immediately slipped away, a small force to go, and it can't solve the problem, you can't ignore it, after all, it's tens of thousands of enemy troops, and it may pounce at any time, just like a toilet hanging over your head, it may not have any lethality, but it's really disgusting!

Second, there are also hidden dangers in the rear, there have been some rumors recently, saying that taking advantage of Sun Ce's northward and empty rear, Jingzhou-Liu Biao mobilized 150,000 horses, with the general Wen Ping as the vanguard, ready to go downstream, first take Xiakou City, and then go straight to Wu County, for this reason, the Jiangdong army is panicked all day long, causing a very bad impact!

Regarding this matter, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu agreed that there are rumors and want to shake the morale of the army, Liu Biao is a cowardly literati, but he is just a dog guarding the household, so he has the courage to provoke Jiangdong, but he is not afraid of 10,000, just in case, in the troubled times, any strange things, bird things, and incredible things can happen!

Therefore, knowing that the possibility of Liu Biao sending troops is extremely low, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu have to guard against it, and after the two discussed, they decided to send the veteran Han Dang to command 20,000 troops to guard Xiakou City and monitor the situation of Jingzhou soldiers and horses.

If the first two things are worrying, the third thing is terrible, the informant in Xuchang City came with the news that Xiao Yi was released from the prison, and the official was reinstated, and Bai Xuan Huang Yue was awarded, and now he is in charge of the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, and he is traveling day and night, and he is going south to rescue Shouchun......

After learning the information, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu had gloomy faces, as if they were facing a great enemy, using Shouchun as bait to lure the enemy army to come to the rescue, and then annihilate it in one fell swoop, this is the 'fishing tactics' they discussed! ’

The problem is that their plan is to catch a sea bass as a hearty meal and enjoy it, but a deep-sea evil Jiao comes, and it is difficult to say who is the big meal now?

Ghost-faced Xiao Lang, a famous general in the world, the two armies clash, and the victory or defeat is unpredictable?
