Tai Shi Ci remembered very well that the siege was on the all-out onslaught of Xiahou Yuan on the third day.

On that day, Xiahou Yuan was no longer the speedy general, but had completely become a madman. With red eyes, he personally went into battle to beat the drums and cheer. In anger, he would also lead the law enforcement team to rush to the front line of the battlefield, coming and going like the wind, and using iron-blooded and ruthless means to send all his soldiers to the meat grinding machine in Dingcheng.

After an hour had passed, both of them had already paid a great deal of casualties, and there were countless corpses lying on the head and under the city, and blood and fire smeared the entire Wending City. And Xiahou Yuan still did not have the intention of giving up, after the previous round of siege warriors retreated, he rotated a group of energetic reserves to continue the attack, and Tai Shici's troops had reached the limit, and the soldiers fought completely by relying on the instinct of survival.

Although the strength of Ma Jiajun's will is strong, when the peak of his will passes, he has experienced three days and three nights of sleepless suffering. Instead, there is a successive collapse of ** and will, if this torment has been held to the limit of psychology and physiology, it is conceivable that the end of the Ma Jiajun in Wending City is coming.

Some of the Ma Jiajun fell down while brandishing their spears in the face of the enemy, and never got up again; Some soldiers could no longer even pull the crossbow machine, and kept shooting posture before their heads were cut off by the enemy who rushed up. The gate of Wending City has been broken through by the Cao army, and the will and life of the Ma family's army, as well as the fiery red banner, are almost burned.

It seems that the loss of Wending City has become irreversible.

Another row of arrows flew over, and dozens of soldiers of the Ma Family Army fell beside Tai Shici in a wail. The crossbowmen on either side immediately stepped forward and shot together in the direction of the arrows. These elite crossbowmen of the Ma family army are still doing their last duty, because of their existence, the Cao army has to pay great casualties before they can rush to Wending City.

"General, break through quickly, this is the last chance!"

Li Chi, who is currently serving as a deputy general under Tai Shici, has blood on his face at this time, and his helmet does not know where it has fallen, he is holding a shield to block Cao Jun's arrows, and he shouts back. Dozens of guards formed a human wall to block the entrance of the battlement, making it impossible for Cao's army to come over for the time being.

And Tai Shi Ci used a double halberd to support his body, it can be said that at this time he completely used his willpower to compete with his body. In the past three days, he took the Ma family light horse back and forth no less than ten times, and once he was almost completely surrounded and killed by Xiahou Yuan's tiger and leopard cavalry.

He seemed to be uninjured, but he had already suffered internal injuries from the blow of Xiahou Yuan's spear. It's just that his pride doesn't allow him to let his soldiers see that the main general is about to die at such a critical moment.

When he heard Li Chi's words, Tai Shici's thought suddenly rose at that time, which was to angrily reprimand Li Chi and then motivate the soldiers to go on! And Tai Shici was indeed preparing to do that, but when he opened his mouth, he suddenly saw the arrows on Li Chi's shield that were not the same as the day before, and the words he said became: "Li Chi!" You...... Don't you think these arrows are weird? ”

Li Chi's eyes immediately drifted for a moment, and his thoughts did not keep up with Tai Shici's rhythm at that time. It was only when he really noticed that the arrow had pierced deep into the shield that he exclaimed in dismay, "This, this?!" ”

Approached Tai Shi Ci's side and hid under the protection of Tai Shi Ci's personal guards. Li Chi only had half a minute to release his shock, he took out the arrows with great effort, and said incredulously: "This is the crossbow arrow used on the crossbow of the Ma family's bed!" ”

The crossbow arrow was two feet five inches long, with hardwood as a rod and geese as a cluster. This specification is exactly the same as the crossbow arrows used in the Ma family's siege bed crossbow. Moreover, suddenly, the two of them also recalled at the same time that at some point, the enemy could already shoot at each other under the city!

You must know that Wending City is already equipped with a mountain-destroying crossbow that can shoot at a range of 200 miles. Although Wending City is not high, if the enemy wants to shoot bows and arrows, how can it take a distance of two hundred and thirty steps - before the two thought that the battle was fierce, and the enemy troops who broke through shot crossbow arrows, but now it seems that the enemy has begun to use crossbow arrows to suppress the defensive advantage of Wending City, and cover them to successfully seize Wending City!

Suddenly realizing such a huge military change, Tai Shici and Li Chi's brains exploded with a 'boom'. Although Ma Chao has already mentioned the Ma family's bow and crossbow, the benefits of war horses will not soon become the psychological reliance of the Ma family's army. But this change came so quickly, and it appeared at the most undesirable time, which made Tai Shici and Li Chi not know how to deal with it for a while.

However, at this time, Xun You bent over and ran over, his face covered with dust, and he was holding Tai Shici's handsome seal in his hand. He stuffed the handsome seal into Tai Shici's hands, and even risked his life to secretly support Tai Shici.

"General! It's time for us to get ready for street fighting! ”

Xun You's scream immediately restored Tai Shici's sanity and due responsibility as a commander, and with Xun You's efforts, he glanced at the battlefield with difficulty. Xun You, who joined the army, had already gathered about 3,000 to 4,000 Ma Jiajun, formed a breakthrough formation and began to rotate towards the city. In the process of rotation, there are constantly Ma Jiajun joining. By the time this advance arrived at the entrance of the castle tower, it had accumulated a scale of nearly 6,000 men. Of course, Cao Jun's attention gradually focused here.

Tai Shi Ci obviously knew that Xun You had deliberately made a very correct decision for him when he was a little unconscious. Immediately, Tai Shi Ci glanced at Xun You gratefully, and then used his last strength to roar: "Break through and hide in the streets and alleys to fight!" Ma Jiajun is mighty, where the honor lies, I wait for death without complaint! ”

"Where the honor lies, die without resentment!" Ma Jiajun, who was fighting, still remembered the glory of being a soldier of the Ma family army at this most critical moment. When their Lord would need them to give their lives, they did not hesitate to do so!

Li Chi also reacted at that time, and supported Tai Shici to retreat to the city and fight to the death until the last moment. But Tai Shici handed the crossbow arrow in his hand to Xun Yu at the same time as he was stepping: "Mr. Xun, the myth of the invincibility of our Ma family's crossbow and crossbow horses is coming to an end......."

And Xun You took the cluster of arrows and glanced at it lightly, then threw it aside and said: "Our Ma family army has never relied on these to get to where it is today, and these crossbow arrows with crossbows have never been the key to determining the outcome of the battle. ”

"Waist crossbow?" Xun You's term rescued Tai Shici and Li Chi from misunderstanding.

"Yes, before I came, I thought back to the blow of the general being besieged and attacked by Xiahou Yuan yesterday. The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry still had only 3,000 men, but they trapped the general more easily than before, causing Xiahou Yuan to deliver that powerful blow. Coupled with the recent change in the range of Cao Jun's crossbow arrows, I know that Cao Jun is no less than our army in terms of armament and combat power. ”

Xun You's tone is impossible to say that it is not heavy. But in this heaviness, he still retained his sharp judgment on the battlefield: "However, it has not been until now that Cao Jun has sacrificed such a magic weapon in Wending City. At least it can be judged that, first, Cao Jun is determined to win Wending City; The second is that these equipment of the Cao army are far less abundant than our Ma Jiajun. Third, and most terrifying......"

"What is it?"

"The person who really presided over such a crazy attack was not the drumming Xiahou Yuan. What he did was more like voting in front of a person! ”

"What does Mr. Xun mean? ......." Tai Shi Ci suddenly woke up to the fact that Xiahou Yuan's performance in the past three days was indeed a little abnormal. Xiahou Yuan, who was desperate to break the city, did not personally participate in a siege - such a performance was not consistent with his pride of never bowing his head.

The only possibility is that the person behind him is strictly forbidden to fight in person. And that person can make Xiahou Yuanyan obey his words, there is only one!

"If my guess is correct, in the big tent of the Chinese army opposite, it should be the head of the Cao family, Cao Cao!"
