Seeing that Zhou Tai was like a mad tiger and his momentum was like a rainbow, Lu Meng's face was overjoyed, and he ordered the reserve archers to provide fire support. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In an instant, the arrows were like flying locusts, and the Cao army on the city wall was so pressed that he couldn't raise his head, and he didn't pay attention, but he was quickly rushed up to the city wall by Zhou Tai, slashing and killing several Cao pawns with a knife, opening a gap. Seeing that Zhou Tai had succeeded, Lü Meng was overjoyed and ordered the reserves to attack quickly, seize the rapidly changing fighters, expand the gap in the city wall, and break through the defense line of Cao's army in one fell swoop.
The drums of war shook the mountains, the shouts soared into the sky, the morale of the Jiangdong army was greatly boosted, and the ants frantically attached to it, the morale of the Cao army was low, and Hefei was in danger and precarious.
"Soldiers, life and death are at stake here, reinforcements are on the way, and they will arrive soon. We fought with them, the city is in the people, and we swear to live and die with Hefei. Those who kill Zhou Tai will be rewarded with 10,000 gold and sealed 10,000 households! Zhang Xi saw that the situation was not good, and shouted.
After that, Zhang Xiyun was like the wind, leading the guards to kill Zhou Tai and more than a dozen Jiangdong soldiers, and fought with Zhou Tai, and Zhou Tai, who was caught off guard, was forced to retreat again and again. For a time, the Jiangdong Army was suppressed in a small gap in the city wall.
The pioneer general Zhou Tai deserved to be the fierce general of the Jiangdong Army second only to Gan Ning, and quickly adapted to Zhang Xi's style of play. After withstanding Zhang Xi's crazy attack with three axes, Zhou Tai shouted, rose up with divine power, and used the Zhou family's "three fatal knives" to regain the upper hand, killing Zhang Xi in a hurry, only parrying, and no power to fight back.
"General Zhang, retreat quickly!" Jiang Ji was shocked, hurriedly transferred the crossbowmen, and hurriedly shouted Zhang Xi to avoid it.
Zhang Xi comprehended, hurriedly shook a move, jumped out of the circle, Jiang Ji gave an order, a hundred arrows were fired, Zhou Tai was shocked and danced a big knife, the knife shadow was heavy, like a wheel, the arrows fell to the ground one after another, and they couldn't hurt a bit.
Zhang Xi was furious, picked up his waist and led the bow, and with a "whoosh" with hatred, he flew to Zhou Tai's chest with a roar. Due to the strong sinking of the arrow, the short distance and fast speed, and on the side, Zhou Tai was caught off guard, and hurriedly turned sideways to avoid it, but it was still pierced through his left shoulder, blood was splashed on the spot, and he almost fell to the ground.
Zhang Xi, who succeeded in one blow, was unforgiving, waved his army and took the opportunity to suppress the offensive of the Jiangdong Army.
Unexpectedly, the brave Zhou Tai was like a bloodthirsty demonic beast, seeing the blood crazy, a thunderclap roared, his right hand pulled out hard, blood surged, dyed red robe, and with a flick of his backhand, the sharp arrow hit the face of Zhang Xi, who was carried away.
Under the severe pain, Zhang Xi's big knife fell to the ground, covering his bloody face with his left hand, and pointing at Zhou Tai with his right hand, his face was full of horror, like seeing a ghost.
Zhou Tai ignored the blood bursting out, slashed wildly, killed two Cao pawns in a row, and the Jiangdong army let out a shout, rushed up, and took the opportunity to expand the gap, so if it goes on, the city is not far away.
Jiang Ji asked people to help Zhang Xi go down to bandage, and at the same time mobilized troops and organized forces to desperately contain Zhou Tai's offensive. Helplessly, Zhou Tai was mad and fierce like a mad dog, unstoppable, the Jiangdong soldiers were not afraid of death, the soldiers under the city tower continued to surge, the Cao army suffered countless casualties, and the defense line was about to collapse for thousands of miles.
"It's over!" Zhang Xi, who was being bandaged by a medical craftsman, sighed in despair.
Seeing that the defense line was precarious, more and more Jiangdong troops poured into the city, and Cao's army was defeated and retreated. After all, at this moment, the outcome of the hand-to-hand battlefield is determined by force, that is, whoever has the thick arm will win.
Jiang Ji, who was suddenly in a hurry, patted his head, his head was wide open, and he decided to use a trick to deceive the soldiers. He thrust his chest and shouted hoarsely: "Soldiers, the army to rescue us is close at hand, and victory will be ours!" ”
"Is it true? Don't drive Jiang! ”
"Where have they been?!"
The soldiers of the Cao Army, whose mental and physical strength had reached the limit, asked one after another.
"Really! Jiang Ji vouched for his life and personality, when have I ever deceived someone. We'll be there right away. Jiang Ji's face turned red, I don't know if he was ashamed because of lying, or because he was so excited that he changed color, only he knew.
"Kill them all, reinforcements have arrived." When Cao Jun heard this, it was like beating the blood of a chicken, sweeping away the decline of the plague chicken just now, fearless of death, strong spirit, roaring towards the Jiangdong Army, and regaining the initiative.
Seeing that he was about to succeed, but he fell short all of a sudden, Zhou Tai was so anxious that he was angry and shouted angrily: "Brothers, they are liars, and the people below are ours, kill quickly." After speaking, he rose up and rushed forward to kill the big sword storm.
At this time, due to too much force, Zhou Tai's wounds burst out, the blood flowed more and more, his consciousness began to blur, and his physical strength became weaker and weaker, but Zhou Tai held on with an amazing will, and the Jiangdong Army was like a wolf and a tiger under his leadership, killing Cao Jun and retreating, flesh and blood flying, and corpses were everywhere.
The Cao pawns, who had already reached the limit and were about to collapse, panicked, and shouted nonsense: "Don't drive Jiang, have the reinforcements arrived?!" We can't hold it anymore! ”
Some veterans with explosive temperaments simply scolded: "Jiang liar, Jiang bald, I have grass for your ancestors for eighteen generations, if you dare to deceive people, we will be the first to kill you, and we will not let you go!" "Because Jiang Ji was born with leprosy when he was a child, his hair was scarce, and his hat never left his head all year round, so he had this nickname in the army.
"Really, really! They're coming! Brothers, hold on! If I lie to you, I'm Jiang bald! Come to a sticky end! Jiang Ji touched his head in embarrassment, and his horse's face turned even more blood-red, screaming loudly.
He stamped his feet in a hurry, stretched his neck to look out of the city, and approached the stairs of the city wall, ready to smear oil on the soles of his feet when the situation was not good—and escape.
"Oh no, this dog thing is really deceiving! You didn't hear what he said, it's Jiang bald head who lied to you. He was originally Jiang bald! The angry Cao pawns gritted their teeth and discussed.
The mood of pessimism and despair spread rapidly like a plague, and the morale of Cao's army, which had reached the end of the crossbow in body and spirit, was demoralized, and the offensive of Zhou Tai and his gang was like a tide, and it was about to collapse.
At the last moment, they faintly heard a desolate and majestic horn sound faintly sounding in the sky, and shouts came and went, from far and near.
The smoke and dust on both sides of the south gate are tumbling like a giant dragon, the banner covers the sky and the sun, as if thousands of troops and horses are swept over, and the sound of shouting and killing is getting closer and closer.
Jiang Ji couldn't believe his eyes, he wiped them a few times, he used his eyesight, and when he fixed his eyes, the two sides of the smoke and dust with "Zhang" and "Yu" written on them came out and fluttered in the wind.
Jiang Ji was ecstatic, dancing with his hands, shouting excitedly and frantically: "The two generals Zhang Liao and Yu Ban have saved us!" Brothers, kill! With that, swing your sword and kill Zhou Tai.
However, due to the chaos of the scene, the uproar of the people, and the preoccupation of everyone in the fight, no one paid attention to him, and many of the soldiers despised him like madmen.
"It's really coming, it's really coming!" Jiang Ji excitedly played a sword flower and stabbed at Zhou Tai bravely.
At this time, Zhou Tai was bleeding too much, and although he was very weak, he still knocked out Jiang Ji's long sword with one sword. Jiang Ji's face was like ashes, and he was holding his head, but a sharp pain came from the coccyx of his spine, and it turned out that his buttocks were scolded by Zhou Tai with a knife, and his buttocks bloomed, and his flesh and blood were blurred.
At this time, Zhang Xi also heard the shouts outside the city, and he shouted loudly: "Brothers, it is really the reinforcements of the two generals Zhang Liao and Yu Ban, give me the reinforcements." "I grabbed a long knife and joined the warband.
The sound of horns and shouts outside the city became louder and louder, and the morale of the Cao army was greatly boosted, the momentum was like a rainbow, and the combat strength rose sharply, killing the Jiangdong army and retreating.
At this time, there were bursts of rapid and loud sound of gold outside the city, which was clearly from the Jiangdong army array under the city.
"General Zhou, the city has already withdrawn its troops." A Jiangdong army general hurriedly reported that they were also exhausted and could not withstand it.
"Retreat!" Zhou Tai weakly spit out two words, and he also reached the point where the lamp ran out, and he couldn't support it anymore.
"Retreat!" If the Jiangdong army general was amnesty, under the cover of his own soldiers, he hurriedly helped Zhou Tai to withdraw the ladder, and the extremely weak Zhou Tai climbed down a few steps, and felt the world spinning, and fell headlong to the bottom of the city wall.
The morale of the Cao army on the city wall was greatly boosted, as if returning to the light, each raising swords, guns, swords, halberds, shouting loudly, swarming up, and frantically rushing to kill.
The Jiangdong army was either killed or wounded, and the defeat was like a mountain, and they scattered in a hurry.
The soldiers and civilians in the city cheered, ran to tell each other, hugged each other and wept, and fell into a sea of joy.
"Kill! Kill! Kill! "The shouting and killing outside the city was earth-shattering, soaring into the sky and shocking. Banner hunting, wind and sand rolling, smoke and dust, covering the sky and the sun, the two Cao Jun like two black dragons flying into the sea, splitting the waves, rolling up thousands of stormy waves.
Zhang Liao and Yu Ban took the lead, and Zang Ba, Sun Guan, Wu Dun, Yin Li, Sun Kang, Liu Tong, Chen Lan, and Mei Cheng formed two teams to follow closely behind, leading the army like a wolf and a tiger to flank Lu Meng left and right, and quickly entered the formation of the Jiangdong Army.
"Lv Meng traitor, take your life!" Zhang Liao saw Lu Meng's handsome flag shaking, afraid that he would escape, so he was angry, shouted, and waved his knife to cut a bloody path, like a tiger out of the gate, and pounced on Lu Meng.
The sound was like spring thunder, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and the officers and men of the Jiangdong Army were terrified, and they were all shocked, and their hearts and galls were broken.
As we all know, Zhang Liao is Cao Cao's chief fierce general, brave and strategic, resolute and vigorous, and it is difficult for ordinary people to pick up the front, especially when the battle is unsuccessful, the Jiangdong army is afraid like a tiger, dare not resist, and avoid it one after another.
Lu Meng thought of Zhang Liao's earth-shattering feat of slashing in the midst of thousands of troops and horses, and couldn't help but be shocked, he never expected that the Hefei reinforcements would come so quickly, there was no range and opportunity to release arrows, and there was no right-hand man around him, and Zhang Liao and Yu Ban were close at hand, so they had to face the battle.
Although Lu Meng's force is in the top ten in Jiangdong, where is Zhang Liao's opponent, he is out of breath in less than three moves, his hands are in a hurry, his face is like ashes, regardless of Zhang Liao's shameful smile, he cheekily shouted: "Who will save the governor of Pontus?!" Rewards! ”
However, the soldiers under his command were all busy saving their lives, and they were too busy to take care of themselves, so where could they take care of him.
Zhang Liao laughed and said: "Lu Meng is a traitor, even if you shout and cut your throat, no one will save you, so let's die." With a move, "Fishing for the Moon in the Sea", the treasure knife flashed with the sound of wind and thunder, flashing with a terrifying cold light, and the lightning slashed towards Lu Meng.
