Chapter 201: Capture the City Gate
The Yellow Turban was taken by surprise, and the siege team climbed to the top of the city smoothly, and there was only a weak resistance to the city wall.
The Han army easily attacked the city, this yellow turban didn't expect it, and at the same time, Ye Chen didn't expect it, so that Ye Chen and they were not completely prepared.
"This is going to be attacked!" Ye Chen was dumbfounded, he didn't expect it to go so smoothly.
"My lord, it's a good thing that we have captured the city now, and we should take the opportunity to expand the results of the battle." Guo Jia said.
Because he didn't even expect to attack it before, the Han army was completely unprepared, and now he attacked the city all of a sudden, which made Ye Chen not know how to deal with it.
"Fengxiao, is it possible for us to capture the city in one fell swoop." Ye Chen was full of pride in his chest, and now he had just attacked the city wall, and it was not impossible to open the city gate, kill it, and capture the city in one fell swoop.
"Lord, if I could have thought that it would be so easy to attack the city, it would have been possible, but now we are completely unprepared, and the rest of the Han army has been attacking the city for a day, very tired, and now they have returned to the camp, and there is no time for them to regroup and participate in the battle, so I am afraid it will not be possible to take the city in one fell swoop."
After hearing this, Ye Chen sighed and calmed down, although this was a good opportunity, it couldn't succeed in one fell swoop.
"Lord, although you can't take the city and exterminate this Yellow Turban, you can take the opportunity to expand the results of the battle and deal a major blow to the Yellow Turban."
"Well, okay, then kill it hard once and expand the results." Ye Chen's eyes shot out a few rays of light, full of battle intent.
"Order, attack the city with all your might, expand the results of the battle after going to the city wall, storm to both sides, and open the city gate if possible." Ye Chen sent all the follow-up troops up to carry out a strong attack.
"Order, Tai Shi Ci and Guan Yu are ready, once the city gate is opened, they will charge immediately, and after entering the city, they will mainly destroy."
Ye Chen gave two orders in a row, and he also carried the overlord halberd to the team of the guard battalion, and handed over the rest to Guo Jia to command.
After the Han army occupied a city wall, the follow-up troops could continue to attack, and the yellow turbans on the other city walls found out about the situation and hurried over to support, but they were firmly blocked by the Han army.
Because Zhang Jiao, the leader of the Yellow Turbans, and Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang have rarely appeared recently, the morale of the Yellow Turbans is not high, and the dispatch is not very fast, so the Yellow Turbans have no way to organize a strong counteroffensive force at once.
Taking advantage of this time, the Han army attacked under the city wall and soon approached the city gate. However, when they reached the city gate, they met with strong resistance, and a fierce battle began.
At the city gate, the nearby yellow turbans did not need to be organized, they all spontaneously rushed to support, although they were not highly qualified, but they also knew that once the city gate was opened, the consequences would be very serious.
The Han army was blocked at the city gate, and although it continued to attack, the resistance of the Yellow Turbans was very strong, and the progress was not smooth for a while.
"Report, our army has encountered strong resistance near the city gate, and it cannot make progress."
It was really depressing to finally storm the city wall and occupy a city wall, but not being able to open the city gate.
Ye Chen thought about it, because they attacked the city wall too suddenly, he didn't expect the yellow scarves, let alone the yellow scarves, so now the yellow scarves haven't reacted, and when they react, a large number of yellow scarves come to support, then it's too late.
"Big brother, you immediately organize a thousand guard battalions, go to the city, and attack the yellow turban inside, you must open the city gate as soon as possible, if it's too late, you won't be able to open it." Ye Chen said.
Tai Shi Ci on the side promised, without unnecessary nonsense, and immediately took a thousand guards to the city.
"Yun Chang, let's get ready, once the city gate is opened, we will charge immediately."
"No."
Ye Chen waited about a hundred meters away from the city gate, leaving enough space for the cavalry to charge.
Tai Shi Ci and the others went up to the city wall, and when they saw the two sides fighting fiercely below, they launched an attack on the Yellow Turban team.
The city wall is condescending, and the yellow turban has no protection, and the bow and arrow attack is very deadly, and a small area is emptied when a rain of arrows goes down.
"What's the sound outside, hurry up and take a look." The shouts of killing from both sides alarmed Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang, because Zhang Jiao needed to recuperate, so they cleared out the superfluous people.
"Report, the Han army launched a night attack and has entered the city." After a while, a little yellow turban ran up in a panic to report.
"What!" Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang were both taken aback.
"Quick, quickly notify the troops, dispatch a large army, block me back, be quick." Zhang Bao ignored Zhang Jiao on the hospital bed, and shouted out silently, he also went to see it during the day, and the defense should be fine, but he didn't expect that the Han army would actually attack the city.
"Ahem, two younger brothers, what's the situation, is it the Han army attacking?" Zhang Jiao heard Zhang Bao's shout and woke up.
"Big brother, it's okay, it's just that the Han army attacked overnight this time, so I'll go with the third brother to block it." Zhang Bao knew that he had just lost his temper, so he hurriedly comforted Zhang Jiao.
Zhang Jiao nodded and didn't speak, waving his hand to let Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang out.
After they went out, Zhang Jiao stood up stiffly, he knew that something must have happened, otherwise Zhang Bao would not be so flustered.
Zhang Jiao stood up hard, and it took a lot of movement to get up alone, and it seemed that he couldn't hold on for long.
On the other side, Huangfu Song also felt different, because the movement here was too big, and he couldn't make any big noise by simply attacking the city.
"Go and see how the siege of the general of the left army is going." Huangfu Song hurriedly sent a personal soldier to check the situation.
It's not that Huangfu Song didn't care about the situation on Ye Chen's side, but after he withdrew the siege team, he had just settled them down, and he had just had dinner at this time.
"Report, General Huangfu, General Zuo has already entered the city, and I heard that they are trying to open the city gates." The soldier came in and reported.
"What? Why do you storm the city quickly, hurry, bring your own troops, and immediately follow me to check. Huangfu Song said in surprise.
On the way, Huang Fu Song also felt that this was an opportunity, if they really attacked the city, then they would have the opportunity to quickly exterminate the Yellow Turbans, but the battle was not sloppy at all, I didn't know the specific situation ahead, Huang Fu Song didn't dare to make a decision easily, and he had to go to the scene to see it before he could make a decision.
After Tai Shi Ci went to the city wall, he continued to attack the yellow turban below with bows and arrows, and then the Han army took advantage of the situation to launch a strong attack, under the blows of both sides, the yellow turban gradually could not hold on, although there was a steady stream of support from the yellow turban, but there were more and more Han troops under the city wall.
Finally, the yellow turban near the city gate was eliminated, and the Han army occupied the city gate, and more than a dozen Han troops just rushed in and opened the city gate.
The city gate slowly opened, and the guard camp outside, more than 5,000 cavalry also prepared to charge.
