Chapter 611: Between Life and Death (1/2)
Huyang. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
With a loud sound, the heavy stone, with a huge force, bombarded the city wall of Huyang, making a muffled sound.
Standing at the head of the city, Kuai Zheng could even feel that the city wall under his feet was trembling.
His face was pale, and his knuckles were so hard that there was no blood. My heart was pounding, I was nervous, and I was about to go crazy.
It's no wonder that he's just a scholar.
This was the first time in his life that he had participated in a war since joining the company.
To say that you are not nervous is pure nonsense. Even Kuaizheng himself couldn't tell how scared he was now. However, Kuai Zheng still stood strong on the city gate tower, facing the surging attacks outside the city, and did not show the slightest flinch.
"Archer, throw!"
Kuai Zheng raised his sword and made a ferocious slashing motion in the air.
It's just that there was a slight tremor in his voice. Fortunately, the sound of killing echoed in the city, and it was not noticed by too many people. Only the old housekeeper saw the clue. But at this time, the old butler would never speak. He was dressed in leather armor and stood beside Kuaizheng, just like he had been in the past ten years. It's just that in the hands of the old butler, there is still a sharp head knife.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
It's already the second day!
Jingzhou soldiers and horses, after the soldiers approached Huyang City, launched a ferocious attack.
Fortunately, Kuaizheng had already taken precautions, and after discussing with Li Yan, he decided to divide 800 troops, led by Li Yan, and set up a small village outside Huyang City according to the terrain. Theoretically, it is not a good idea to divide the forces at this time. If the opponent's coach is smart, he can completely ignore the Xiaozhai soldiers. It only takes a little guard to make this arrangement a snake to add to it.
This kind of strategy was also used by Cao Peng in the Battle of Quyang eight years ago.
At that time, Cao Peng's opponent was Chen Gong.
And the soldiers and horses stationed outside, in addition to Gan Ning, there are also figures like Deng Zhi. In the end, it did not have the slightest effect, Chen Gong attacked the city with all his might, except for the first sneak attack to contain the effect, no matter how Gan Ning and Deng Zhi acted, it was of no use.
However, Liu Hu is not Chen Gong!
Li Yan's seemingly insignificant strategy had an effect on Liu Hu......
The night attack on Tangzixiang failed, Pang De was almost wiped out, and he was almost shot by Huang Zhong. Fortunately, Li Yan arrived in time to rescue Pang De. But even so, Pang De was seriously injured, and after returning to Huyang, he was unconscious, but he was not worried about his life.
Pang De was unconscious, but the footsteps of the Jingzhou soldiers did not stop.
On the second day of the night attack on Tangzi Township, Liu Hu, the captain of Zhangling, led the army and arrived in Tangzi Township.
In the face of the amazing results, Liu Hu's heart did not have much joy, but an indescribable depression......
This should have been a brilliant battle, but it was robbed of the limelight by an old pawn.
Huang Zhong is not Liu Hu's subordinate, so for Liu Hu, no matter how brilliant Huang Zhong is, it doesn't have much to do with him. Because, Huang Zhong is Liu Pan's person! The more outstanding Huang Zhong is, the more others will praise him, Liu Pan and Liu Jushi have a unique vision and a sense of knowledge...... You see, others think that Huang Zhong is an old man and has no skills. But Pan Gongzi has a discerning eye and sees Huang Zhong's extraordinary.
As for Liu Hu?
Who cares!
The greater Huang Zhong's credit, the more others felt that Liu Hu relied on Huang Zhong, or the help of Pan Gongzi, to have such outstanding military exploits.
This is by no means the result that Liu Hu expected.
So after arriving in Tangzi Township, although Liu Hu tried his best, his heart was as if he had swallowed a fly, and he was extremely disgusting.
The battle of Huyang must not allow Huang Zhong to be in the limelight again!
After Liu Hu made up his mind, he pretended that Huang Zhong had fought repeatedly, and he was too hard to work, so he asked Huang Zhong to stay in Tangzi Township and rest for the time being. At the same time, it is also to ensure the smooth flow of Jingzhou's military grain road, and with Huang Zhong here, it will be foolproof. Huang Zhong is a person who doesn't have much scheming...... He was upright and brave. thinks he has all his skills, but he is over fifty years old, and he still can't do an inch.
Although Liu Pan valued him, he was a little wary.
It's like boiling eagles, Liu Pan is boiling Huang Zhong, because Liu Pan feels that Huang Zhong and him are not the same heart, and they can't be regarded as his henchmen.
It is precisely because of this that although Huang Zhong has made many contributions, he still cannot be valued by Liu Biao.
Even if Wenpin Wang Wei recommended Huang Zhong in front of Liu Mian many times, it did not produce any effect......
Liu Hu asked Huang Zhong to stay, but Huang Zhong naturally refused to agree.
He argued with his arguments and hoped to be able to fight again. But the more he argued, the more disgusted Liu Hu became. In the end, Huang Zhong also failed to go out with the army, but stayed in Tangzi Township for the so-called rest. It's just that the battle in Huyang didn't go very well.
Li Yan's plan to divide the troops gave Liu Hu a headache.
On the one hand, he attacked Huyang, and on the other hand, he had to guard against Li Yan's sneak attack.
After all, not everyone is Chen Gong, and not everyone has the means and courage of Chen Gong. Seeing that he couldn't open the situation for a long time, Liu Hu also secretly felt anxious. When Huang Zhong fought Tangzixiang, he didn't seem to have made much effort...... There was hardly much resistance, and two big wins in one day can be described as a brilliant record. But now? His own troops are several times that of Huang Zhong, and the terrain of Huyang is far less dangerous than that of Tangzi Township, but he has not been able to open the situation for a long time, but has lost his troops and generals. This made Liu Hu very angry.
is not only annoyed by Kuaizheng, but also annoyed by those pig heads in Jingzhou.
Kuaizheng, this guy looks good...... Why haven't you heard of his name? Oh, it seems that he was an official, and then somehow, he was dismissed again. It's good now, people have taken refuge in Cao Cao. Turn against yourself! Those human heads and pig brains in Jingzhou are really hateful.
However, appreciation is appreciation, and anger is anger.
This Huyang must be captured!
Seeing that several attacks failed to work, Liu Hu was furious and ordered again to storm Huyang. He personally led the army and went into battle to supervise the battle.
As a result, the Jingzhou army's offensive suddenly became more ferocious.
The defenders on Huyang City gradually became a little unable to support it. Kuai Zheng kept running around the city, shouting loudly, but with little success......
"The enemy has landed in the city!"
With an exclamation, Kuai Zheng raised his eyes.
I saw Jingzhou soldiers climbing the city wall along the ladder. The defenders of the city immediately panicked, and many people turned around and fled.
At this time, the weakness of Kuaizheng's lack of control was revealed.
As the main general, he can't take the lead, and he doesn't have enough prestige to stabilize the morale of the army. Kuai Zheng's eyes were red, he roared, and he raised his sword and was about to rush forward. But at this time, the old housekeeper shouted: "Childe, be careful." ”
A stone flew up to the top of the city and smashed towards Kuaizheng.
The old butler rushed forward and threw Kuaizheng to the ground, and the stone fell on him. With huge force, the old butler who smashed it spurted out a mouthful of blood and was killed on the spot. Kuai Zheng was shocked, sitting on the ground, the sword was thrown somewhere, and he couldn't react for a long time.
A Jingzhou soldier broke through the encirclement of Cao's army and raised his sword to pounce on Kuaizheng.
Kuai Zheng was only awake at this time, he wanted to dodge, but found that his legs did not have any strength, and he couldn't help but close his eyes when he saw the sharp steel knife fall, waiting for the knife and axe to add to his body. But at this moment, I suddenly heard the sound of bowstrings. Pound rushed up from under the city with a group of men. He carried a broadsword and a short bow. Seeing that Kuaizheng was in danger, without saying a word, an arrow shot out, killing the Jingzhou soldier on the spot.
"Pepin, command everyone to continue fighting, and Hugh will live up to the high expectations of the old butler.
I'll deal with the enemy in the city. ”
"Ah......h
As if he woke up from a dream, he glanced at the corpse of the old butler not far away, and tears flashed in his eyes.
Suddenly, he bent down and picked up the steel knife of the Jingzhou soldier from the ground, rushed to the battlement, and shouted: "Sons, don't panic, listen to my orders...... Archers, projectiles. ”
In times of chaos, the role of a backbone is difficult to express in words.
Kuaizheng's outburst made Cao Jun gradually stabilize the morale of the army......
On the other side, Pang De went into battle with his wounds and rushed towards the Jingzhou soldiers who had landed in the city. In the battle of Tangzi Township, Pound was shot in the shoulder, although he was not killed, but he was seriously injured. But this does not affect Pound to take the lead. The big knife in his hand is an ordinary hundred-for-steel knife. The tiger roaring knife given to him by Cao Peng was lost in Tangzi Township. Pang De's heart was full of anger, although his body was still a little weak, but he was like a fierce tiger descending the mountain, only killing the Jingzhou soldiers in the city, and retreating again and again. After a hard battle, the Jingzhou soldiers who landed in the city were driven down the city of Huyang again. However, the attack of the Jingzhou army did not end there. As soon as the front foot was driven down, then the countless Jingzhou soldiers launched a charge again like a tide. One by one, the wells were approaching the city wall...... The archers on the well gradually suppressed the archers of the Cao army. At this time, Huyang is like a boat in the stormy seas, which may be capsized at any time.
Pang De walked quickly to Kuaizheng's side and raised his eyes to look at the city.
"Pepin, hold on a little longer...... It's almost the same to come to Jingzhou Army.
After attacking for two days in a row, as long as you can repel it again, you will inevitably be demoralized. The positive side was contained outside the city, and they couldn't use all their strength. ”
Kuai Zheng nodded, suddenly turned his head and said, "Ling Ming, if I die in battle, Huyang will be taken over by you." ”
"Pepin ......"
Pound was stunned and looked at Kuaizheng.
saw that clear face, and a resolute face at this time.
Saying other words seemed to be out of place, Pang De nodded and said: "Peping rest assured, if Huyang breaks the city, De will be killed in battle." ”
Kuaizheng smiled!
He shouted, "Sons, don't be alarmed.
He is here, and he will live and die with you, and will never retreat...... At the time when Huyang is in crisis, it is an opportunity for us to reimburse the country and repay Taishou. Kuai Zheng swore to live and die with Huyang, and if Kuai Zheng died in battle, Ling Ming took over; If Ling Ming dies in battle, Huyang jade will be burned. ”
In a word, block all back roads.
When the soldiers of the Cao army heard this, they couldn't help but be greatly boosted by the army's morale and fought desperately.
However, the disparity in strength cannot be made up for in a few simple words. The situation in Huyang has become more and more severe with the passage of time!
