Chapter Forty-Three: Under the Bloody Battle of the Pavilion

Under the baptism of heavy rain, even the castle tower that was unfolding the blood station did not have a trace of blood, and it all flowed into the moat with the rain.

When Zhuge Qiao approached the battlefield to the north, the Wu army retreated; When I walked in, I found that most of the fallen corpses were left by the Wu army, and the guards were also killed, which also showed the bravery of the white-eared elite soldiers.

At this moment, an earth-shattering scream was heard outside the city gates; Zhuge Qiao closed his eyes and turned his head to the outside of the city, how much he wished that he could see the banner of Shu Han when he opened his eyes, but his ears heard the words "open the city gate", and his heart sank; Resolutely open your eyes and look, "It's still coming"

"Defend the city gate, they won't attack the city without siege equipment" Zhuge Qiao looked at the tens of thousands of Wu troops outside the city and swallowed a mouthful of saliva, which undoubtedly reminded him of the foreign history of 480 BC, when the Persian king Xerxes I personally led an army of 300,000 to conquer Greece, and Leonidas, the king of Sparta City, led the city to defend for two days, and his entire army was annihilated, and the Persian army lost 20,000 people. It just so happened that he also led 300 elite soldiers, but he didn't know if he could hold this section of the city wall.

The Wu army under the city had already arrived near the moat, Sun Heng shouted to the city tower to open the door, and no one answered him; But he left three heads, Sun Heng couldn't wait to fly into the city immediately when he saw it, and killed Zhuge Qiao and others, but the fact was that he could only stare at Zhuge Qiao under the city tower and was at a loss.

"Listen, general, there seems to be a sound of fighting in the city, it seems that the Han army only occupied this section of the city wall and not the entire city," Sun Heng's lieutenant reminded.

At this moment, in the direction of the city corner, a large number of Wu troops poured out, "General, wait a moment, I will put down the drawbridge and let the general enter the city"

Sun Heng's tense nerves also calmed down a little,

"Follow me" shouted, and then headed for the south gate. The soldiers who had just been at the corner of the city also immediately rushed to the center of the city gate; The soldiers besieging the city under the inner city also heard the movement outside the city and knew that this must be their own troops, otherwise it would be impossible for the Han army not to open the city gate, so they immediately changed their offensive and attacked the city gate, and began to carry the stones and rolling logs, preparing to open the city gate and cut the drawbridge.

When Zhuge Qiao saw this scene, he immediately decided: "You go to block the Wu army on the city wall", pointing to the dozens of imperial forest troops beside him. However, he took Qin Hong and Qin Shan and began to approach the stairs of the inner city wall, preparing to rush down to prevent Wu Jun from opening the city gate;

summoned more than 20 Imperial Forest troops and began to go down the stairs on the left, but the Wu army blocked this staircase, making it difficult for Zhuge Qiao to break through; Zhuge Qiao did not hesitate to go down halfway, jumped off the city wall, landed on the corpse of Wu Jun below, got up and rushed towards the city gate, Qin Hong and Qin Shan also followed, and the Imperial Forest Army also jumped down the city without hesitation; Chen Zhi, who was standing on the city tower and commanding, couldn't let go of this scene for a long time, Zhuge Qiao brought him too much shock, which made him a little reluctant to believe it.

Zhuge Qiao rushed in front, the Qin brothers guarded him, the spear in his hand had already been discarded, but he was holding a Pu knife in the endless chopping and stabbing, the Wu army soldiers were not soft eggs, they formed a good military formation to protect the city gate so that Zhuge Qiao had no way to start, but Zhuge Qiao still did not give up, in the non-stop impact of the Wu army's lineup, there were fewer and fewer soldiers around him, but the enemy was more and more surrounded, so that Zhuge Qiao also had a sense of powerlessness, "Is it really like this to admit defeat?"

When there were less than ten people left in the Imperial Forest Army beside him, and Qin Hong and Qin Shan were also wounded, the Wu army finally cleared all the obstacles piled up at the city gate, and was just about to open the city gate to welcome the army; There was a Royal Forest Army that suddenly rushed into the Wu army's formation, and broke through the desperate defense of hundreds of Wu troops, Zhuge Qiao also looked over there, it turned out that Chen Zhi left the command position and risked into the enemy formation;

Although the Wu army's military formation was able to resist Zhuge Qiao, it seemed a little reluctant to resist Chen Zhi, Chen Zhi killed in the formation towards the city gate, a spear danced, and there was no general around, but the Wu army still did not take half a step back, desperately resisting Chen Zhi's killing; And the city gate was also much brighter in an instant, Zhuge Qiao looked up and saw that the city gate had been opened, and he saw if Chen Zhi could control the city gate before Wu Jun cut the drawbridge, otherwise everything would turn into a bubble.

When the Wu soldiers outside the city saw the city gate open, they also shouted, "Enter the city, enter the city,

Chen Zhi also looked suspicious, and he also knew the result after putting down the suspension bridge; Desperately killed towards the city gate, how could the Wu soldiers resist, Chen Zhi, who was already mad, when the Wu army had cut the iron chain of a drawbridge, Chen Zhi finally came to the door, grabbed a spear and threw it at the strong man who was cutting the chain of the drawbridge with an axe, the strong man fell in response, and Chen Zhi killed the Wu soldiers at the door; But at this time, the Imperial Forest Army beside him had all stayed on the way to charge, and at this time he was the only one standing under the west gate of the Yaoting Palace.

He raised his spear above his head and challenged Wu Jun, and his silver-white armor and helmet stood like a living god of war.

Suddenly there was chaos outside the city, as if there was a war; Chen Zhi heard this voice and knew that His Majesty was coming, and he stood with his waist straightened, but Wu Jun did not dare to move it, maybe after this, today's scene will be remembered by the soldiers of the two armies, and it will never be forgotten.

In less than the time of a stick of incense, the drawbridge was actually put down by the people on the city tower, could it be said that the city tower had been lost; The moment the drawbridge was lowered, the soldiers of the Wu army were ecstatic, and the drawbridge was finally put down; But when the suspension bridge was lowered, it was not Wu Jun's soldiers who stood on the bridge, but Zhang Fei! The look of joy on the face of Sergeant Wu disappeared in an instant, and he began to flee frantically towards the city.

Zhang Fei also couldn't believe it when he learned that Zhuge Qiao led three hundred imperial forest troops to take the Yaoting, but Zhuge Qiao and him had the grace to save his life, and he was still a general under his own account, so he personally led Langzhong to rush to the Qianting for the front army.

When the suspension bridge was lowered, Zhang Fei was also stunned when he saw the scene in front of him, Chen Zhi actually blocked hundreds of Wu troops with his own strength, so that they did not dare to take half a step forward, which also reminded Zhang Fei of the scene in front of his Changbanpo Bridge back then.

"General Che Cai, please enter the city quickly and kill the enemy" Chen Zhi was also relieved when he saw Zhang Fei.

"Uncle is brave and brave, and I will have a good drink with you when I celebrate the achievement", Zhang Fei led the army into the city to prepare for the city defense; However, when they had just entered the city, they were facing Sun Heng;

Sun Heng saw that the Han army controlled the west city gate, and there was still a voice of resistance in Chengnei, so he knew that the Han army did not control all the city gates, so he led his soldiers to enter from the south gate, but time did not favor him; Sun Heng saw that Zhang Fei had already entered the city and knew that the general trend had gone, so he took the soldiers out of the city.

Zhang Fei also did not chase after him, but only cared about strangling the Wu soldiers who were still in the city and controlling the various city gates, waiting for Liu Bei's army to arrive.

(This chapter was written specifically for Chen Zhi, who followed Liu Bei for more than 20 years, served as Liu Bei's personal bodyguard, and trained the white-eared elite soldiers, whose bravery was second only to Zhao Yun, and after Liu Bei's death, he had been guarding Yong'an and keeping the party peaceful; But his name does not appear in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
