In July of the seventh year of the ordinary, on the Shouyang line guarded by the Northern Wei Dynasty, the flames of war were rekindled.

Today's rain has changed the usual disturbing style, and it has fallen straight down, splashing countless splashes on the slippery ground, which looks much more refreshing.

The sound of rain spread over the hills, masking all other sounds and the movement of an army marching in the rain.

The army was silently advancing rapidly in the rain, and they did not even raise their banners, but only buried their heads in the road, and it was almost impossible to tell the origin of this army from the eyes of others.

In front of the army was a general, who looked to be some years old, wearing a helmet and armor, riding a tall horse, with a serious expression, and a long, dense, gray and white beard that had long been soaked and dripping with water. This veteran is the commander of the front-line Liang Army in Shouyang - Xiahou Kang!

Immediately behind Xiahou Kang was a tall and mighty middle-aged general, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a beautiful beard, black helmet and black armor, holding an iron lance, and riding a gray war horse. He is the right-hand man under the command of Xiahou - Zhan Seng Zhi.

Xiahou Kang led this army, obviously with a very clear goal, they quietly walked through the rain curtain, but what was strange was that they were not in the direction of Shouyang, but in the opposite direction, in the direction of Feishui.

It was not until they reached the edge of Feishui that the purpose of their march in the rain was finally clear - a newly built walled city of the Wei army rose from the ground to guard the area of Feishui. And Feishui is the retreat of the Liang army in case of emergency, if the Wei army is allowed to gain a firm foothold here, not only will the retreat be cut off, but also for the Liang army besieging Shouyang, it is like a man's back.

"Did the Wei army really build a city here?" Zhan Seng Zhi exclaimed.

"This Wei army is not simple," Xiahou Kang looked worried, "Being able to quietly go around behind us to build a city is tantamount to putting a knife on the back of our army, if the Wei army is stationed here, the consequences are unimaginable......"

"Let's brave the rain to attack, isn't it just to pull out this knife! Xiahou Gong, give the order, the last general will definitely take him down! "Zhan Seng Zhi asked Xiahou to fight.

Xiahou Kang nodded, "General Zhan, you must attack with all your might, no matter how many casualties there are, you must also take this city, otherwise, our entire army will be in danger!" ”

Zhan Seng Zhi immediately led his soldiers to besiege the walled city of the Wei army, and asked the soldiers to cut bamboo and wood on the spot, and make ladders, rams and other instruments.

This walled city was newly built by the Wei army, and it was obvious that the vanguard was stationed in it, and the main force had not yet had time to enter the city, and in the face of the sudden siege of the Liang army, the Wei army in the walled city immediately began to prepare to defend it.

According to Xiahou Kang's estimates, the Wei army in the walled city is currently at most 3,000 people, and he has 8,000 people, even if there will be casualties, there should be no problem in taking this place.

The battle is fast on! Under the command of Zhan Seng Zhi, the Liang soldiers began to attack.

The Wei army obviously did not show weakness, and they smashed the rain of arrows together, accompanied by dense raindrops falling from the sky, on the top of the Liang army's head.

The Liang army continued to have a large number of soldiers who fell to the ground with arrows. But they did not flinch or fear, and they rushed forward one after another, stepping on the fallen brothers in front of them, and in one breath they set up the ladder to the wall of the walled city.

Along the ladder, Liang Jun climbed to the top like an ant.

The Wei army did not flinch either, stabbing the Liang army in a frenzy, grabbing everything they could throw at their hands and smashing them at the enemy, whether it was rocks, rolling logs, or even the remains of their comrades......

The battle was fierce, and the sound of the battle had long overshadowed the sound of the rain, resounding in the sky.

Time is ticking, and so are the lives of the soldiers. Xiahou Kang's heart began to be covered with a layer of gloom - the Liang army's attack could be described as brave and resolute, and it regarded death as home, but except for piling up a layer of corpses under the corner of the walled city, it did not cross the Wei army's city walls.

At this time, Zhan Seng Zhi also ran to Xiahou Kang, and said anxiously, "Xiahou Gong, the Wei army is fiercely defending, and our army has suffered heavy casualties, let the brothers withdraw and rest for the time being, and the next round will personally take the lead in attacking the city!" ”

"It's the old man who underestimated this group of Wei troops," Xiahou Yan's tone was full of remorse and annoyance, "Let's take it for a while, let the brothers rest and rest." ”

The Liang army temporarily withdrew, and after the inventory, this round of attacks killed and wounded more than 1,000 soldiers.

"It can't go on like this!" Xiahou Kang said anxiously, "If we can't capture this place as soon as possible, as soon as the Wei army arrives, we will become rats in our pockets!" ”

"Quick! Immediately transfer another 5,000 elites and come to reinforcements quickly! Xiahou gave an order to his herald.

Then he turned around and said to Zhan Seng Zhi, "Before the reinforcements arrive, divide the soldiers into two groups, one group to attack and one group to rest, and take turns, not necessarily how fierce the attack is, but it must be constantly harassed, and the enemy must not be allowed to have a chance to breathe." When the reinforcements arrive, let's take them down in one go! ”

"Yes! The last will be arranged now! "Zhan Seng Zhi received the order, and immediately according to Xiahou Yan's orders, the soldiers were divided into two groups and attacked in turn.

After all, the Wei army was small in number, and even if the Liang army's attack was not as fierce as before, it did not dare to slack off at all, and kept holding on to the city, dealing with the Liang army's non-stop attacks.

The next group of soldiers of the Liang army attacked, and the previous group only withdrew, and in the face of this endless wheel tactic, the Wei army began to be tired of coping - they had no time to eat, and it was rare to even drink a sip of water, let alone take a short rest, but they did not dare to relax in the slightest, in case they were caught by the Liang army, it would be really doomed.

In the midst of round after round of attacks, the sky gradually darkened. The Wei army was exhausted and hungry, but the Liang army had no intention of giving up and continued to carry out their tactics in an orderly manner.

Until late at night, the Wei army still gritted its teeth and persevered, defending its city.

"Although it is an enemy, it is worthy of admiration!" Zhan Seng Zhi was moved by the tenacity of the Wei army and couldn't help but sigh.

"Well, it's tenacious enough." Xiahou also admitted.

"It's too dark now, and it's slippery on a rainy night, why don't you stop today?" Zhan Seng Zhi suggested.

"Well, the siege can be stopped, but the harassment can't be stopped, you still have to assign a few groups of soldiers to shout from time to time, so that the Wei army thinks that we are going to attack at night, so that they can't sleep well!"

This night was perhaps the most painful night they had ever experienced for the Wei soldiers trapped in the walled city. Liang Jun's constant harassment made them unable to sleep peacefully, and coupled with the darkness and coldness of the rainy night, their physical strength and energy had almost been pushed to the limit.

finally lasted until dawn, and the bloodshot eyes of the Wei soldiers saw that the Liang army began to repeat its old tricks again, and they were about to attack in turn.

But the Wei army still dragged its tired body and stubbornly guarded the walled city.

The two sides fought back and forth like this, until in the afternoon, the factor that broke this balance of power finally appeared - the five thousand elite reinforcements of the Liang army finally arrived!

"It's time!" Xiahou stroked his palms and said loudly, "I must take this city today!" ”

"Zhan Seng Zhi, gather all the soldiers!" Xiahou Kang ordered loudly, "The Wei army is exhausted, and it is the end of the strong crossbow!" In one go, it will be overcome! ”

"Xiahou Gong rest assured!" Zhan Seng Zhi responded loudly, "The last general will be the first soldier, personally lead the brothers to attack the city, if you can't conquer it, I am willing to die to apologize!" ”

After speaking, Zhan Seng Zhi walked to the front of the battle and shouted to the brothers, "Brothers, just follow me, if I am unfortunately killed in battle, you will step on my bones and continue to move forward!" Don't fall into this city today, and never retreat! ”

In the current situation, there is no need for any tactics, under the leadership of Zhan Seng Zhi, the morale of the Liang army is like a rainbow, and the whole army is assaulting, rushing towards the walled pig of the Wei army!

Zhan Seng Zhi took the lead and rushed to the front of the team. Arrows rained down, and Liang soldiers continued to fall to the ground with arrows, but these could not stop the pace of the Liang army's charge, and the screams of the soldiers were like a clarion call to inspire them, urging them to speed up their pace more and more.

The cloud ladder was on the city wall again, and Zhan Seng Zhi roared angrily and took the lead in climbing up.

The will of the Wei army was still tenacious, but their bodies were too tired, and in the face of the onslaught of the Liang army, although they resisted desperately, they slowly began to be at a disadvantage. And for the first time, the Liang army finally stood on the wall of the Wei army's walled city!

Once the gap was opened, the Liang army suddenly poured into the city like a tide. And the gate of the walled city finally insisted at this moment

I didn't stop, I was knocked away by Liang Jun!

The city gate is lost, and even the most stubborn defenders will inevitably fall into panic.

Even though they were already at an absolute disadvantage and were already bound to lose, this group of Wei troops still did not give up resistance, like beasts that had fallen into a hunter's trap, still grinning and wanting to fight the trapped beasts......

"Surrender! You're still defeated, and we're not going to kill them all! Zhan Seng Zhi shouted loudly while constantly knocking over the Wei army that rushed towards him.

But none of these Wei troops looked like they wanted to surrender, they turned a deaf ear to Zhan Seng Zhi's appeals, and just kept fighting the Liang army until they fell.

The Liang army conquered the walled city, but it was not until the Wei army was completely destroyed that it was completely controlled.

Of the 3,200 Wei soldiers, none of them survived......

When Xiahou entered the city and saw this miserable scene, he couldn't help but feel sad, "I really don't know who these Wei soldiers are, they are so loyal and brave, which is admirable." ”

"I really don't want to fight with such an enemy anymore," Zhan Seng Zhi said in a low voice, "It's really chilling to think that there might be such a main army." ”

"Speaking of the main force, we must find out where the main force of this Wei army is as soon as possible." Xiahou stroked his beard and frowned, "Next, I'm afraid there will be a hard battle!" ”

"Since they are building a city here, the main force should also come here." Zhan Seng Zhi said, "It's just that now that this place has been attacked by us, how will the main force of the Wei army respond?" Will they attack and retake it, or will they move somewhere else? ”

"Send out a lot of scouts, keep an eye out for any disturbances in this area!" Xiahou Qian ordered.

Then, his tone became slightly sad, "Gather all the bones here, including Wei Jun, don't let these heroic souls expose the corpses to the wilderness......"
