The order for the general attack was issued, and the officers and men of the three armies were all enthusiastic, carrying the unfinished killing machine, and swept towards Xiakou City.

When Su Zhe's army reached the front line of the west gate of Xiakou, the entire city was in chaos.

Whether it was Liu Biao or Huang Zu, no one expected that Su Zhe would take advantage of this fog to go east down the river and attack Xiakou by surprise.

When the water camp on the west bank was broken and Huang Zu bowed his head, Liu Biaofang in the city had just disappeared.

Shocked, Liu Biao had to hurriedly put on his clothes, scolded the less than 6,000 soldiers in the city, and rushed to the city to set up defenses.

Killing under the city, Su Zhe raised his head and saw that the enemy soldiers who climbed to the head of the West Gate were less than 1,000 people, which was an excellent opportunity to kill the enemy army by surprise and capture Xiakou in one fell swoop.

At that moment, Su Zhe pointed at the enemy city with a whip and shouted: "The whole army will attack the city immediately, and those who enter Xiakou first will be rewarded!" ”

When the order was handed down, Wei Yan, Xu Huang, Wen Ping, Hu Che'er and other generals were all arrogant and enthusiastic, roaring towards the enemy city.

Huangfu Song was also infected by this wonderful surprise attack, and rode up with a spear.

Nearly 50,000 Soviet soldiers flocked to Xiakou City.

In the blink of an eye, the army crossed the moat and poured to the bottom of the city, hundreds of ladders were raised, and the Soviet soldiers like tigers and wolves rushed to climb the ladders and attack the city.

Although Xiakou City is not as strong as Jiangling, it is one of the three major cities in Jingzhou, and Huang Zu has been operating for many years, and the city wall is also tall.

If Su Zhe attacked head-on, even if he had an army of 50,000, if he didn't use the weather to attack, Liu Biao would be enough to hold the city with a few thousand defenders.

It's a pity that Su Zheqi attacked today, and although Liu Biao still had 6,000 soldiers and horses, he didn't have time to drive all the men and horses to the city.

It was precisely by relying on the overwhelming superiority in troops that Su Zhe dared to attack the city with one go.

Despite this, there are still veterans like Huang Zhong under Liu Biao, and under Huang Zhong's desperate command, the Soviet army failed to capture the city for a while.

"Defend the city for me, don't take a step back, defend the city!" Liu Biao, who was panicked, waved a long sword in his hand, and yelled hoarsely.

At such a moment of life and death, he no longer cares about the elegance of a celebrity, even if he is asked to scold the street like a shrew, he will not hesitate.

Huang Zhong remained calm and did not panic in the face of danger, commanding his soldiers to smash the flying stones, shoot sharp arrows at the Soviet army, and at the same time summon more people to immediately set up defenses in the city.

The arrows at the head of the city are like rain, the flying stones are like shuttles, basins of boiling water are constantly splashed, and there are constantly Soviet soldiers on the ladder, screaming and falling under the city.

The resistance of the enemy army was quite stubborn.

Su Zhe didn't have the slightest idea of withdrawing his troops, at this juncture, even if he paid a big price, he would take Xiakou City, only in this way could he take Jingzhou and have no worries.

And only by taking Jingzhou can he go north with all his strength and compete with the Central Plains.

Inspired by his iron-blooded will, the Soviet soldiers were fearless, and climbed the ladder one after another, one after another, like a wave of fierce attacks.

Under the surging offensive of the Soviet army, in a moment, the disadvantage of the enemy's insufficient number was fully revealed, even if it was a tiger general like Huang Zhong, he was also tired of running for his life, and the two could not take care of each other.

"How can you let that Wenpin monopolize the credit, today is also the time for me Wei Yan to make contributions!"

Wei Yan, who was eager for meritorious service, let out a long roar, held a long knife in his hand, grabbed the cloud ladder, and jumped up.

He climbed up with one hand and danced with a knife in the other, and flew away with the sharp arrows and flying stones he smashed, unstoppable, and in a blink of an eye he was approaching the city.

The guards at the head of the city panicked, and hurriedly lifted a large pot of boiling water, trying to pour it down, telling Wei Yan to avoid it.

Seeing this, Wei Yan didn't have time to think about it, and the long knife in his hand stabbed directly upward, only to hear a muffled sound, and the blade hit the bottom of the pot heavily.

His martial arts are extraordinary, and the blow is extremely strong, and the soldiers who carried the pot were unsteady on their feet, and they were shocked to the ground.

In the next second, a pot full of boiling water fell on their bodies, instantly scalding them to the point that their whole bodies were rotten, and they fell to the ground screaming miserably, rolling in pain.

No one could stop him, so Wei Yan took advantage of the situation and stood on the battlements.

The moment that majestic figure appeared on the top of the city, the Soviet soldiers were greatly encouraged, and the cheers shook the sky, and the offensive became more fierce.

"Good Wei Yan, well done!" Su Zhe clapped his hands and cheered, and said excitedly: "Beat the drum for me and cheer for Wei Yan!" ”

When the order was laid, the drummers swung the drums even harder, and the earth-shaking drums changed the color of the heavens and the earth.

Wei Yan, who successfully went to the city, jumped off the battlements, and the war knife in his hand danced wildly, smashing all the approaching enemy pawns.

With him as the breakthrough point, the Soviet soldiers in the rear rushed to climb up, and the number of Soviet troops attacking the head of the city increased, squeezing the enemy's living space step by step.

One side was broken through, everywhere was broken through, and in the blink of an eye, several city heads were captured one after another, and hundreds of Soviet soldiers and soldiers had poured into the city.

The tide is over.

Liu Biao, who was shrinking in the east corner of the city, watched the rebel general who once belonged to him break through his last fortress and forced him into a desperate situation with no way out.

"Could it be that I am a dignified Jingzhou pastor, a member of the Han family, and a famous man in the world, am I really going to die at the hands of a traitor from a cold family, the ancestors of the Han Dynasty, why don't you bless your children and grandchildren, God, why are you so blind~~"

Liu Biao, who was grief-stricken and indignant, looked up to the sky to accuse, scolded endlessly, and two lines of old tears overflowed the corners of his eyes.

At this time, Huang Zhong, who was stained with blood, rushed over and shouted in a deep voice: "Lord, the general trend has gone, Xiakou City can't hold it, and the last general will escort you out of the city to the naval army camp on the southeast bank of the city, and escape by water." ”

"Run? Xiakou City is lost, where else can I escape? Liu Biao said with a sad face.

Huang Zhong said: "Don't be discouraged, if we can successfully escape the south bank, we will have the opportunity to escape to Changsha County by land before the Su thieves, and then with the four counties of Jingnan, there may be a last chance to fight." ”

In Liu Biao's desperate eyes, a remnant of hope suddenly flashed.

Although Huang Zhong's proposal has little hope, not to mention the loss of Xiakou City, will the grass on the walls of the four counties of Jingnan still listen to his orders, even if they can really listen to his orders, with the population and material resources of the four counties of Jingnan, they are definitely not Su Zhe's opponents.

The end result is nothing more than a delay in the time of destruction.

Seeing Liu Biao's hesitation, Huang Zhong hurriedly persuaded again: "Lord, even if we retreat 10,000 steps, we can't hold Jingnan, we can cross Wuling and flee to Jiaozhou, then the Su thief will never go on an expedition and chase him to such a far place, even if the lord can't make a comeback, he may be able to save his life, it's better than dying in the hands of the Su thief." ”

Liu Biao's body was shocked, and he suddenly couldn't come to his senses, and said hurriedly: "You're right, the old man must not die at the hands of the Su thief, go, let's get out of the city immediately." ”

After that, Liu Biao didn't dare to delay for half a minute, so he left his soldiers, and under the protection of Huang Zhong, he got off the city wall and went straight to the south gate.

As soon as Liu Biao fled, the fighting spirit of the remaining Jingzhou soldiers finally collapsed completely, and most of them gave up even hope of escaping and directly surrendered.

The closed city gate slowly opened, the drawbridge was also cut down, and tens of thousands of Soviet soldiers poured into Xiakou City like a tide.

On the city tower, the big flag with the word "Liu" was slammed down, and a blood flag with the word "Su" fluttered high in the sky above Xiakou.

Xiakou, change hands!

Su Zhe, who was sitting outside the city, clearly saw the flag with the word "Su", slowly rising on the city tower, and let out a long breath, and couldn't help but smile with relief.

The three major cities of Jingzhou, Xiangyang, Jiangling and Xiakou, finally fell into his hands, symbolizing that he had completed his complete control of Jingzhou.

As for the four counties of Jingnan that have not yet been conquered, Su Zhe believes that when those Taishou learn the news of the destruction of Xiakou City, they will send people to swear allegiance without him sending troops to conquer it.

"Lord, Xiakou City has been captured, please enter the city!" Xu Huang, who came quickly, arched his hand excitedly.

Su Zhe just wanted to enter the city, but suddenly remembered something, and his eyes turned to the southeast, "Xiakou City is already ours, it's not the same to enter early and late, you also take a team of people and horses to go to the southeast with me." ”

"Southeast? Why did the lord go there? Xu Huang was puzzled.

"Wen Ping said that in addition to the main camp of the navy in the west of Xiakou City, there is also a side camp of the navy in the southeast of Xiakou, and I want to take this side camp together to prevent Liu Biao from abandoning the city and fleeing to the south bank from there, today, Liu Biao must die in Xiakou."

As he spoke, Su Zhe whipped his horse and headed straight to the east.

Xu Huang understood Su Zhe's intentions, and immediately slapped the horse-carrying axe, took more than a thousand elites, and went straight to the camp of the eastern navy.
