Chapter 157: Defense, General!

Boom......
Boom......
The sound of war drums spread far away, but the battle was endless in the distance.
Above the fortified city, there was a crowd of people.
Rolling logs, cobblestones, and gold juice were constantly being sacrificed, and the scene was simply tragic and unusual, rushing to greet the enemy troops who were shouting to attack the city.
Huo Xiong predicted that the war would be very tragic, but he never thought that Wu Yi would make such a big effort and determination, as if he wanted to capture Xiakou City in one fell swoop.
Looking at the enemy troops who were constantly attacking the city wall like a cascading wave, Huo Xiong did not show the slightest panic on the surface, but he still looked extremely nervous in his heart.
Seeing Song Ming commanding his soldiers to fight back continuously, Huo Xiong's chaotic heart seemed slightly calm.
There is no problem with the deployment of 50,000 troops to defend this fortified city, but Xiakou City is not as simple as imagined, and the unique geographical location makes Xiakou City very different from other cities at the beginning of its construction.
If Wu Yi's army didn't have so many soldiers, Huo Xiong could still rely on the 50,000 troops in his hands to defend, but Wu Yi actually had 150,000 troops under him, even if many of them were new soldiers.
But in the face of life and death, he is extremely brave!
The abundance of troops made Wu Yi boldly choose a multi-front attack in the offensive, and the four city walls were divided into four parts to attack.
If it weren't for the fact that he had so many soldiers under him, and most of them were new recruits, and he used his military merits to earn his freedom, otherwise he Wu Yi would not have been so extravagant.
Wu Yi's treatment of his soldiers is not ordinarily ruthless, because Wu Yi pursues the survival of the strong, and if you want to live, then you must be strong, because the coward is dead.
Not to mention these recruits who were forcibly joined by Wu Yi, it was even more ruthless to them.
It is based on such a principle that Wu Yi is so crazy.
"Kill......"
"Those who rush to the city wall will be rewarded with ten acres of fertile land and given to the captain!"
"Rush, ......"
"Don't let the enemy attack the wall, and the one who kills ten people will be given the lead rate! Whoever kills fifty people will be given the captain! ”
"Kill!"
In order to achieve victory, the soldiers on both sides can be said to have done their best.
This battle was fought in the dark, looking at the enemy troops pouring in, Huo Xiong, who was weak, roared away with a war knife in his hand.
Huo Xiong raised his knife and rushed straight at the enemy soldiers, shouting in a shocking voice: "Kill! Don't let the enemy rush the walls! ”
Huo Xiong's killing of the enemy is just a symbolic performance, if he is really allowed to go into battle shirtless, it means that Huo Xiong's situation is already precarious, and it has reached the point of no return.
Since the beginning of the decisive battle, Song Ming has been constantly wielding the mace in his hand, and the sharp spikes easily pierce the enemy's body, causing his blood to flow.
Huo Xiong had not yet approached the enemy soldiers, who had already died, and relying on Song Ming's brave performance, the precarious defensive position of the city wall was quickly stabilized.
For some reason, Huo Xiong missed Liu Wu a little.
I don't know why, wherever Liu Wu is there, no matter how difficult the situation is, it will definitely be Huo Xiong and them who will win in the end.
Liu Wu had been sent to the aid of Sun Jinghui's troops for ten days, and he didn't know what the situation was, and Huo Xiong still didn't know that Changsha County had been captured by Liu Wu.
Liu Wuman is so hard!
Although the situation is tense on the side of Huo Xiong's defense, because of the strongest existence of Song Ming, everything is under control, so it is not too bad.
But there's not so much to do elsewhere.
……
At the dock of Xiakou City.
"Kill......"
"The enemy army is gone, hurry up and pursue it!"
"Kill you, brethren!"
"Rush forward, the merit is in front of you!"
"Don't let the enemy invade the city!"
“……”
The shouting is endless, the shouting and scolding are continuous, and the armies of the two sides are entangled at the moment.
It's not a good fight.
As the only weak point of Xiakou City, Wu Yi will naturally not give up this defensive loophole, and will definitely focus his attack on this, and sending Zhang Nanxing to solve this place shows that Wu Yi attaches great importance to this place.
In order to capture the dock as soon as possible, Zhang Nanxing's 50,000 troops all went into battle, and this fierce attack made Xiangtian, who was defending this place, a little unable to subdue, and he couldn't fight like this!
This is simply a terrible way to play!
Xiangtian waved the spear in his hand, and everywhere he passed was corpses all over the field, blood splashed on him, and the whole person seemed to wade through the blood water.
It was precisely by relying on Xiangtian's lifeless attack that his troops were firmly rooted in place, and they were not attacked by Zhang Nanxing's troops.
Xiangtian looked around at the enemy army around him, and shouted angrily: "If you have the ability, step on Lao Tzu, otherwise you don't want to attack Xiakou City from here!" ”
Xiangtian's roar frightened the surrounding enemy troops who wanted to attack, but it was precisely because of this roar that it attracted death, and Zhang Nanxing, who had been staying behind the formation, had been observing the battlefield.
He was observing the entire battlefield situation, and there were more than 100 archers standing behind him, when Xiangtian's roar sounded, Zhang Nanxing roared and pointed straight at him and said: "Shoot arrows for Lao Tzu here!" ”
"Whew......"
"Whew......"
As soon as the words fell, the feather arrow was shot, and the cloud-like feather arrow was thrown out, Xiangtian and the surrounding soldiers were all spared, all of them were hit by this sudden feather arrow, Xiangtian was a little unlucky, and was directly shot in the neck and died on the spot.
Xiangtian's death caused the front to collapse.
Zhang Nanxing seized this precious opportunity to personally go into battle to attack the chaotic enemy camp, although he intended to resist, but how could he resist this fierce attack without the command of the general.
Zhang Nanxing can be regarded as a rising general under Wu Yi, and he uses his own strength to prove himself.
The dock of Xiakou City was unexpectedly captured, which made Xiakou City fall into a situation of being attacked by the enemy, although Huo Xiong was strong, it was impossible to win in such an extremely harsh environment.
This battle was fought in the dark, but even so, because of the large number of recruits added under Huo Xiong's command, the combat effectiveness of his subordinates did not increase, but had a significant downward trend.
When war comes to this, there is no one right or wrong.
Huo Xiong never thought that in just one day, Huo Xiong led his troops to capture Xiakou City, which made him simply unbelievable, and at the same time deeply doubted himself in his heart.
After a setback, people will fall into a whirlpool of deep doubts about themselves.
At this point, Huo Xiong fled from Fankou with more than 30,000 remnants.
Wu Yi also paid a heavy price for the capture of Xiakou City, and his soldiers died more than 30,000 people.
After capturing Xiakou City, everything will be easy to do.
Because the new strategy has been realized, is Liu Wu, who is far away in Changsha County, so stupid? Is Guo Jia next to him so stupid? Do you just stay where you are and wait?
