On this day, the offensive and defensive battle of Jicheng has reached the final moment of hard work.

"Sons, for the sake of Your Majesty and for the sake of Great Wu, no matter what the price is, we must defend Jicheng!"

Huang Zhong, the commander of the Wu army, was covered in blood, standing at the head of the city, holding a big knife in his hand, not retreating half a step, like a King Kong, guarding the city wall, and the only remaining 10,000 remnants of the soldiers under his command regarded death as home.

"Sons of Great Wei, kill in!"

Zhang Liao, the commander of the Wei army under the city, personally beat the drums and cheered, and shouted angrily at the city: "Whoever enters the city first, this general will personally ask His Majesty for him, and he can be rewarded with 10,000 taels and sealed the marquis of ten thousand households!" ”

"Kill it!"

"Kill it!"

In the face of Zhang Liao's voice, their morale suddenly soared a lot, and one by one they became fearless of death, desperately attacking the city wall.

This bloody battle fought from day to night, from sunrise to sunset.

In the evening.

The bloody battle is still ongoing, Wu Wei's soldiers on both sides are now biting their last breath in desperately, under the light of the sunset, a bloody rainbow, a tragic battlefield, up and down the city, the corpses and broken arms, the blood is gorgeous.

"What a Huang Zhong, he is really tenacious!"

Zhang Liao stared at Huang Zhong at the head of the city, he had not rested for two days, a pair of eyes were sunken in, his expression was gloomy, he stared at the city head, and said coldly: "A certain family really underestimates him, he actually uses this little remnant of the army, and he can still block me for two days, it's really hateful!" ”

Huang Zhong is like a soldier who can't be defeated, every time he sees that he is about to break through the city gate, he can burst out with peerless morale in a desperate situation and save the situation again and again.

"General, the walls have basically been broken by us. Before it gets dark, our army will be able to enter the city! Tian Feng stood beside Zhang Liao, looking tired, and said categorically.

"Tian Feng, you go and tell them, before dark. The army must enter the city! ”

Zhang Liao said coldly: "Today, we can't break through the city and enter the city, let them all come to see me one by one!" ”

"Yes!"

Tian Feng hurriedly sent soldiers to deliver Zhang Liao's order.

"Kill it!"

"Kill it!"

Several Cao Wei generals heard Zhang Liao's order and attacked even harder.

"Your Majesty, the last general Huang Zhong is incompetent, he can't keep Jicheng today, and he can't keep Youzhou, he has to bear your trust, and he should be martyred!"

At the head of the city, Huang Zhong looked at the Wei soldiers around him. There was a look of despair in his eyes, let him be brave and invincible, after all, he couldn't stop thousands of troops, the city was broken, and Jicheng couldn't be saved.

"Commander, Jicheng can't be saved, while we still have some troops now, you can break through quickly!"

A division commander walked up. A spear in his hand slashed left and right, clearing out all the Wei troops around Huang Zhong. Then he shouted at Huang Zhong and said, "A certain family is willing to break off for the commander!" ”

"Commander, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, anyone in our Blood Wolf Legion can die, you can't die, you can break through quickly!" Another division commander also came up to meet him.

"Hahaha!"

Huang Zhong's eyes swept over the loyal generals of Eastern Wu, and he couldn't help but look up to the sky and smile. The big knife in his hand flew, like a wild dragon killing: "You have to underestimate me Huang Hansheng, how can I Huang Hansheng be a coward who left his son and fled by himself, even if he dies here today, so what's the matter." Sons, let's let those Wei dogs see today, the bloodiness of Da Wu Erlang, kill! ”

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Seeing Huang Zhong's bravery, the remnants of the Wu army burst out with the last burst of morale and repelled the Wei army at the head of the city.

"Hmph, it's just a trapped beast!"

Seeing this scene, the generals of the Wei army under the city smiled coldly, and issued their orders one after another: "Sons, these Wu troops are already the last struggle, let's go up in one go, break the city gate, behead the Wu generals, and destroy the Wu soldiers!" ”

"Kill it!"

"Kill it!"

The Wei soldiers also understood at this time that the Wu army at the head of the city was already powerless, and they attacked very violently, and finally broke through the city wall.

Rumble!!

The gates of the city were broken.

This fierce battle had already begun to enter the city walls and the battle in the city, and although the remnants of the Blood Wolf Legion led by Huang Zhong were desperate, they still fought stubbornly one by one.

"Huang Hansheng, so far, you don't surrender quickly!"

Yu Ban Xiahou Yuan and others rushed into the city, and several fierce generals were led by Xiahou Yuan, a super fierce general who had practiced qi, and pointed directly at the main general Huang Zhong.

"People are in the city, you want to enter the city, you want to step on my Huang Zhong's corpse, kill!"

The big knife in Huang Zhong's hand seemed to be tired, and the whole person was like a blood-colored Shura, sweeping through thousands of armies.

Da Da !!!!!

However, at this critical moment, the overwhelming sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded, and one after another Wuzi battle flags covered half of the sky, like a torrent, impacting the Wei army.

"Zu Mao is here, whoever dares to offend my Great Wu Jicheng should be killed!"

A fierce general, one horse in the lead, riding a horse and flying, holding high a wild lion battle flag, towards the Wei army.

"No mercy!"

"No mercy!"

Tens of thousands of cavalrymen waving the Wild Lion Battle Banner crossed the horizontal line in the distance to the east of the battlefield, forming a brazen momentum, as if it was like a stirred wave, covering it.

"The Lions of the Legion? It's the Lion Cavalry! ”

The soldiers of the Wu army who fought bloodily above the city were excited one by one, and Huang Zhong roared even more: "Hahaha, the sky is endless, I Huang Hansheng, sons, our reinforcements have arrived, drive these Wei dogs out of the city!" ”

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The remnants of the Wu army, who survived the Jedi, suddenly relied on the desire to survive, and suddenly burst out with incredible combat effectiveness.

"Soochow's reinforcements?"

"Why are reinforcements coming at this time?"

"In just one night, we can take Jicheng!"

"Why?"

One by one, the generals of the Wei army watched the cavalry of Eastern Wu suddenly appear, and the anger in their hearts rose.

"The Lion Legion?"

Zhang Liao looked at it, his face lost a little blood in an instant, and the whole person became extremely pale, and his whole body was cold: "Tens of thousands of cavalry, this is not a disturbing soldier and horse. This is the main reinforcement force! ”

Almost.

They're just a little bit closer.

After all, it was not able to completely occupy Jicheng, and the reinforcements of the Wild Lion Legion arrived, which means that there is no hope for the Wei army in this battle.

They were defeated!

"General?"

Tian Feng's expression also turned blue, his eyes looked at Zhang Liao, and his voice trembled a little: "What should we do now?" ”

"Mingjin withdraws his troops. Retreat ten miles and avoid its edge! ”

Zhang Liao's eyes were red, word by word, his voice seemed to burst out from between his teeth, and his cold breath was full of unwilling but helpless emotions.

If these tens of thousands of cavalry pounced, they would be able to crush their main force with the momentum of their charge alone.

At this moment, you can only avoid the edge.

"No!"

Tian Feng gritted his teeth, he was not reconciled. But now Zhang Liao's decision is the most correct, this at least 30,000 elite Eastern Wu cavalry suddenly appeared on the battlefield, which can definitely turn the situation around.

Bell Bell !!!!

The sound of the sound of the golden gong sounded from the middle camp of the Wei army and reached the ears of every Wei army soldier, and the Wei army soldiers suddenly retreated from the city wall like a tide.

"The general has an order, withdraw immediately!"

With Zhang Liao's order, the Wei army could only abandon the city wall in hand, and a group of black surging heads retreated towards the city. It was a spectacular scene.

"Hmph, you guys are running fast!"

Because Zhang Liao's reaction was too timely. When the Wei soldiers retreated to the main camp, the Wu cavalry arrived at the head of the city, and one of their long-distance charges was empty, but it was also regarded as holding the city wall.

Of course, now they don't dare to go directly to chase and kill, after all, the main force of the Wei army is still above their coalition army. If you fight back, the consequences will be unimaginable, and now it is the most important thing to stabilize Jicheng.

"Commander Huang, I'm not late, am I?"

Zu Mao raised the spear in his hand under the city, looked at the city and asked.

He led the cavalry of the 21st Army. Even if he was rushing south day and night, he thought that he was going to do the wrong thing, but he finally caught up at the last moment.

"Hahaha, Commander Zu Mao, fortunately you came in time, if you were half a minute late, you would have seen the corpse of my Huang at that time!" Under the reflection of the last trace of the remnant sun, Huang Zhong, who had survived the catastrophe, stood bloodthirstily on top of the city, laughing loudly.

"We won!"

"Keep Jicheng!"

One by one, the soldiers of the Wu army looked at the blood-stained city wall, and the excitement of the rest of their lives after the catastrophe in their hearts couldn't help it, and they suddenly cheered.

……

The night was lonely, south of Jicheng, on a steep hillside ten miles away, a group of bonfires were reflected, and tired soldiers were resting back to back.

In the camp of the Chinese army.

Zhang Liao sat in the first place, his eyes were gloomy, his face was as blue as ice, the fists of his hands were clenched tightly, and he didn't say a word, and his aura was so overwhelming that all the generals couldn't breathe.

This time, they mobilized hundreds of thousands of people, and used nearly one million logistics grain and grass, but now they have come to such an end.

What face did he Zhang Liao have to see the emperor?

What face does he Zhang Liao have to face the expectations of the Great Wei court?

A sense of humiliation welled up in his heart.

This was the biggest defeat in his Zhang Liao's marching and fighting career.

"General, the last general was derelict in his duties and failed to block the reinforcements of Eastern Wu!" Xu Huang opened the tent, strode in, and pleaded guilty to Zhang Liao.

"The sin is not in you!"

Zhang Liao shook his head, calmed down this strong general, and said: "You have blocked the Karasuma cavalry and the black-armored elite cavalry Suzaku Battalion, which is already very good, but this time it is the Wild Lion Legion, this force, you can't stop it, the general trend is like this, we are helpless!" ”

Huang Zhong was too tenacious, and the Wild Lion Legion came too fast, which was the reason for their defeat in this battle.

Defeat is defeat.

Any reason is pale.

"This battle has been lost!"

Zhang Liao raised his head, his eyes swept over, and finally spoke, his deep tone was very cold: "I, Zhang Wenyuan, should take all the responsibility, after returning to the court, I will personally ask Your Majesty for guilt, even if Your Majesty kills me, I will not complain at all, but now I am still a general, and the generals will obey orders!" ”

"In!"

The generals hurriedly stood up and bowed their heads to Zhang Liao.

"Now we need a safe retreat from Jizhou!"

Zhang Liao stared at the generals and said, "Rest all night tonight, and with one move tomorrow, we will withdraw immediately." Zhuoxian is still in our hands, as long as five days, we can retreat to Jingjizhou, no one can love to fight, those who violate the military order, there is no forgiveness! ”

"No!" The generals nodded their heads.

"General!"

At this time, a general broke into the Chinese army camp in a panic from outside the camp.

"Zhang An. I asked the scout battalion to set up defenses, you didn't keep an eye on the Wu army, what the hell is going on, so anxious and panicked to break into the Chinese army camp, is it that the Wu army has counterattacked! ”

Zhang Liao's expression was cold, and he looked at the general of the scout battalion.

"General, I'...... I ......" The general of the scout battalion walked too close, and he couldn't say anything in his throat in one breath.

"Drink saliva!"

Tian Feng hurriedly handed over a glass of water and said in a deep voice: "Say it slowly!" ”

The general of the scout battalion took a sip of water. After breathing a sigh of relief, he said loudly: "General, Liangxiang City has been occupied by Eastern Wu, and there are ...... That one...... That ......"

"What's that, say!" Zhang Liao's eyes widened.

"Last night, General Cao Pi guarded Zhuo County, and was besieged by the Xianbei people for less than an hour. He never fought a single soldier, but he led his soldiers and horses to withdraw from Zhuo County automatically. Surrendered Zhuoxian County to the Xianbei Army! "Under the pressure of Zhang Liao, the general of the scout battalion spoke out in full.

"Poof!"

When Zhang Liao heard this, his brain suddenly exploded, his eyes flashed with stars, and a turbid breath suppressed in his chest instantly exploded, and a mouthful of blood spit out. The whole person seemed to faint.

"General!"

"General!"

One by one, General Cao Wei panicked and hurriedly stepped forward to support Zhang Liao's body.

"Don't help me!"

Zhang Liao broke free from their support, lay on the desk with his hands, and his eyes were as cold and resentful as a wolf: "Cao Zihuan, a certain family believes in you wrong!" ”

He trusted Cao Pi. So let Cao Pi go to guard their retreat, even if the siege fails, they can retreat to Jizhou.

In Zhang Liao's calculations, the Xianbei people have a maximum of 100,000 soldiers and horses, and those who can go south to Zhuojun will be counted to the end, that is, 70,000 or 80,000 soldiers and horses.

And he believes that the Xianbei people will not die hard for Eastern Wu, and all the Xianbei cavalry who can enter Zhuo County are in his estimation, that is, more than 50,000.

Cao Pi had nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, enough to guard Zhuo County.

However, Cao Pi's sudden retreat was equivalent to cutting off the retreat of their hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, which was the rhythm of pit them to death.

The faces of the generals were all ugly.

Even Cao Hong, the general of the Cao clan, has a hint of gloom: "What a Cao Zihuan, I have lost the face of my Cao clan, I will impeach him to the imperial brother!" ”

"Your Majesty is iron-clad, how can there be such a wicked son!"

Xiahou Yuan said coldly, this sentence is not easy for others to say, he is not afraid.

"General, at this moment, we should think about how to withdraw from Youzhou, we don't have much food and grass!" Tian Feng said.

"How much grass do we have?" Zhang Liao asked.

"After Zhuoxian County is taken, our grain and grass will naturally be cut off, with our current inventory, ten days is already the limit, within ten days, if we can't rush out of Youzhou, we will be starved to death!"

"Ten days? No matter what, I have to take you out of Youzhou! ”

Zhang Liao's spirit suddenly rose, he stood up, his expression became resolute, his eyes swept over, and he said to the generals: "Yu Ban, Cao Hong, Xu Huang, Xiahou Dun!" ”

"In!"

The four lords will stand up.

"Now that our situation is surrounded before and after, we can only fight a bloody way, we may not be able to withdraw all our troops to the south, in order to cover the main force to the south, some people want to charge, some people want to break the back, there will be countless casualties, maybe many people have to stay in Youzhou!"

Zhang Liao walked out, folded a handful of bamboo sticks, held them in the palm of his hand, and said to the four people: "There are four bamboo sticks here, the longest charge to open the way, and the shortest bag to break the tail, for the sake of fairness, whoever draws it, who will get it!" ”

At this time, he can't have a trace of soft-heartedness, in order for the main force to return to Youzhou, there must be someone's adventure.

As a general of the Great Wei Dynasty, no matter what, he can't bury all the soldiers and horses of the main force of the four guards here, and he wants to bring this main force out at all costs.

"Good!"

The four of them looked at each other, then each drew one.

It was Xu Huang who charged to open the way, Xiahou Yuan was the one who surrounded and broke off, and the main force of the Chinese army marched Cao Hong and Yu Ban. (To be continued.) )
