Chapter 408: The Second Master Rises
The bloody battle continued, there was a pool of blood under the head of Lingyang City, countless corpses were arranged together irregularly, there were Shu troops and Cao troops, and from time to time there were people who suddenly stretched out their hands from among the dead people, but fortunately, everyone was desperately attacking the city and ignored it; Even if you ignore it, these red-eyed Qiu Ba don't care if you are Sadako or who, it is estimated that you can be destroyed with a knife!
Guan Yu kept calculating, calculating what the city defense of Zero Yang City had become now, where was the weak point, and when was the most appropriate time to launch a general attack!
The Shu army was repulsed three times, but after each rest, it still attacked the city as before, and its morale did not decrease! It's pretty scary! Cai Yang's face was covered with blood, and there was a cut on his arm, he repelled Zhou Cang and Liao Hua, but he was also cut by a sneak attack by a soy sauce soldier; Biting his finger, Cai Yang unfolded a piece of silk cloth, wrote a blood letter, and asked for help: "Guan Yu's army is mobilized to besiege Lingyang City, Lingyang City is not in danger and does not have to come to save me!" Quickly withdraw to Jingzhou City, Guan Yu intends to besiege the city and send reinforcements! ”
The old general was not in a hurry, and even came to think clearly about Guan Yu's intentions, he preached that writing a letter for help was just to cheer up the soldiers of the Cao army, and he deceived people, called the eagle envoy, sent the letter to Huarong Cao Ren, and Cai Yang continued the bloody battle!
"The time has come!" Outside the city, Guan Yu saw that Cai Yang was already mobilizing the Cao army from the other three sides for the third time, and after muttering, he shouted: "Guan Ping! Flag! Tell the Ma brothers, attack quickly! Destroy the city and kill it all! ”
The banner of Guan Zi waved in the wind under Guan Ping's powerful arms, and there was a loud noise, and the Ma brothers who were ambushed in the west of the city in the distance shouted: "The prince has an order!" Siege ——! ”
The shouting of killing shook the sky, Cai Yang's expression stiffened, Guan Yu's yang plan was finally launched, he could only watch himself step by step but helpless!
"Kill the Shu army! Open the gates! Fight to the death with the Shu army! Kill ——! Cai Yang roared again and again, waved his knife to kill several Shu soldiers in a row, and walked down to the city, the rushing vehicles outside the city gate were still crashing, and the gate was overwhelmed and groaned; Brethren! Surrender if you want to live! Those who want to follow me to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions stand behind me! Kill ——! With the door being opened with a bang, the boulder rumbled to both sides of the doorway, and the gate of Lingyang City was opened!
Cai Yang rushed out of the city first, the success of any strategy and strategy is half and half, Cai Yang has long understood this, so he is not to blame, he is also ready to die for the Cao family, he will not survive!
Cao Cao's kindness to him, he has also held great power over the years, and there have never been more than 10,000 soldiers and horses under his command, which shows that Cao Cao attaches great importance to him, and he is an old veteran whose teeth are about to fall out, and no one wants to accept it when he defected! But Cao Cao not only accepted it, but also respected him; Even in Cao Pi's generation, this is still the case for him, although he is a little worse than Huang Zhong's old fellow's Five Tiger Generals, which makes him unconvinced no matter what, the old general has made up his mind, and the one who is a confidant will die!
"Guan Yu! Can you dare to fight a certain battle? Cai Yang threw away his helmet, and his silver-white hair shone against the backdrop of the setting sun, majestic!
Guan Yu snorted: "Since you are looking for death, Guan has fulfilled you!" ""Ah", the fast horse drags the knife, this is Guan Yu's improved drag knife, others use it behind him, but he uses it in front of him!
Cai Yang is also a master of knife skills, boasting that his strength has decreased, and he can't resist after a long battle, so he stabbed it and interrupted Guan Yu's knife momentum halfway! "Little doll! Playing with knives in front of me? Let me teach you how to play with knives! Hahaha! ”
In the heroic voice, Cai Yang's knife is faster than a knife, the knife technique is as strange as a big river, like a willow leaf in the wind, it is unpredictable, if it is not for Guan Yu, he can always interrupt the move with a strength far superior to Cai Yang, I am afraid that I will take off a layer of skin if I don't die!
"Huhu is old! Old! Cai Yang smiled bitterly and looked at the shriveled arm, and then looked at the remnant sun that was about to set down the mountain, but it was just near dusk!
"Stop it!" , Guan Yu shouted, the Shu army that was fighting with the Cao army around him withdrew and rearranged, Cai Yang couldn't help but admire in his eyes, Guan Yu was at least a general, and he had his own set of skills in training; "General Cai! Surrender! Guan Mou has also admired the general for a long time, we are enemies between us, and it is also appropriate for me and you to slander each other, but now that we have won, and you have gone, don't let more people suffer casualties! Guan Yu said politely, this is very unusual, you must know that the second master usually looks at people with his nose; Cai Yang shook his head: "I'd rather be a decapitated ghost than a bent-knee slave!" ”
"So! I will personally send the general on his way with my sword! Guan Yu saw Cai Yang's decision, and if he continued to say it, it would be disrespectful to him, the Qinglong knife was across his chest, and he patted the horse and galloped!
Cai Yang's arms drooped and he didn't have the strength to fight at all, but he roared with all his might: "Long live the Great Wei Kingdom!" ”
"Thick burial! The rest of the people were all killed and buried! Guan Yu sighed and said coldly, before the words fell, countless Cao Jun wiped their necks, which shocked Guan Yu's nerves even more: "Loyalty! Loyalty! ”
The closest to Lingyang City is Shamoke in Jiu County, knowing that Caiyang was besieged, he didn't care about the military order, so he immediately sent troops to the rescue, which was discussed before, 10,000 Han troops, 10,000 barbarian soldiers This is the distribution of troops under Shamoke's command; The main force is the infantry army, but Lu Bu of Tang County is all cavalry, and they also came to help, they stopped ten miles outside Lingyang City, and the front is all Shu army, and the shouting and killing of Lingyang City has not stopped, which means that Cai Yang is still alive!
This is the second master's strategy, to wipe out all the Cao army and prevent the news from spreading, and then use part of the Shu army to pretend to be Cao Jun, and even Cai Yang has a role, and the veteran Yan Yan is the best candidate! If Lingyang City had already indicated that it was occupied by the Shu army, then the Cao army that came to the rescue would inevitably withdraw, and now, it might be over!
Looking at the fight on Zero Yang City from afar, Lu Bu and Sha Moke were misled, especially when they saw the figure of the old general holding the arrow on his shoulder, the two of them were stunned and couldn't hold back anymore, and with a loud roar, the soldiers and horses quickly moved towards Zero Yang City to kill!
"Ahhh
"Guan Yu! Do you dare to fight? Lu Bu shouted imposingly, Guan Yu pursed his lips, he also admitted that he couldn't beat Lu Bu, but he had a helper, Zhao Zilong, a white horse and silver gun, flashed out from behind him: "Wen Hou!" Long time no see! ”
This is a strong enemy, but Lu Bu still doesn't pay attention to it, Fang Tianhua is about to rush over to fight with the wave of his halberd, Shamoke hurriedly shouted: "General! Can't go! Kill the soldiers outside the city first, it's important to save people! General Cai's situation is not good! ”
Lu Bu calmed down and nodded, quickly rode his horse and led the cavalry to charge and kill the Shu army array, Shamoke also ran to the city gate with the infantry army, the number of people besieging the Shu army was not very large, and they rushed down to kill, and in the deliberate release of the water, these people were "defeated"; Lu Bu and Sha Moke entered the city, opened the city gate and entered, the golden armor veteran was crumbling on his horse to meet them, looking at the white hair, Lu Bu didn't think much about it, and rode over: "Old General Cai? ”
"Huh!" , "Old General Cai" directly gave him a knife, and even Lu Bu could only save his life when he was caught off guard, and a big hole was opened between his chest and abdomen, and he almost didn't dissect him! Lu Bu was furious, regardless of his injuries, no matter who it was, the person who hurt him was the enemy! A halberd passed, but it was swept away! Yan Yan had already run to the side!
"Hahaha! Lu Wenhou! Under Yan Yan! It's been a long wait! You've got it! There is no so-called Cao army in the city at all, all of them are Shu troops who have been in ambush for a long time! The yellow armor of all colors indicates their identity! It seems that Cai Yang was killed!
"Despicable!" , Lu Bu scolded fiercely, casually inserted Fang Tian's halberd into the ground, took off his armor, tore the cloak, Lu Bu hastily bandaged himself, he also had to learn Xu Chu, fight naked, without a piece of armor!
"Kill ——!" , with a violent roar, Lu Bu howled like a wounded lone wolf, facing the Shu army in all directions, he chose to kill out of the city first, and then fight them in the wild!
"The plan is done! It seems that Lu Bu is not lightly injured! This was probably the first time he had been injured in his life, right? Looking at Lu Bu from a distance, Guan Yu was a little proud, after all, he hadn't heard of Lu Bu being injured by anyone after all these years, he just used a little trick to seriously hurt him, and he did have the qualifications to be proud!
"Throwing axes! Throw! The cavalry was in front, the infantry army was behind, Shamoke commanded his army to resist the Shu army that poured out of the tide from Lingyang City, just in the battle in the door hole, the Cao army suffered thousands of casualties, and it was very heavy!
In order to seriously injure Lu Bu, Guan Yu gave up the opportunity to let Cao Jun enter Lingyang City entirely, probably because of his selfish intentions!
If it was Zhuge Liang, he would definitely fill the city with saltpeter, sulfur and flammable materials, lure all the Cao troops in, and then quickly withdraw the army, block the surrounding city gates with archers, and wipe out these people!
Cao Jun's flying axe caused a lot of damage, but the Shu army had an absolute advantage in numbers, crushing them, compressing their activity space smaller and smaller! The cavalry troops could not be deployed at all, and the archers and pikemen of the Shu army were almost one by one!
"Grandma's!" , Shamoko scolded angrily! "Throwing axes! Throw it all out! Each of his 20,000 men carried five throwing axes or javelins, and when they heard his order, they all threw them out, anyway, there were people everywhere, and one by one!
Shamoke made up his mind to come to cover with firepower, and sure enough, many Shu troops were unprepared and were knocked down, and the Cao army temporarily gained a certain space for movement!
"Kill General Cao, and his army will be leaderless! Lu Bu has been seriously injured! Zilong, let's go! Ma Tie! Matthew greets the one who screams! Guan Yu laughed and went straight to Lu Bu! Raising his hand is a knife, and Zhao Yuna next to him is also a fast gun, and the two of them will suppress Lu Bu with one face; The more he fought, Lu Bu's lips became whiter, he lost too much blood, he even felt that his eyes were spent, and he hurriedly drank to wake himself up, fortunately, he was really the best man in the Three Kingdoms, otherwise he would have been killed by a quick knife and a quick gun, and this was not a problem of adding two wounds to his body; Shamoke's side also encountered unprecedented challenges, Ma Tie and Ma Xiuna are also superb martial artists, that is Ma Chao's younger brother, even if he can't meet Ma Chao's standard, he is also a very powerful general, plus two to one, Shamoke was beaten and retreated, and the army has no one to command, so he can only rely on a few captains and partial generals under his command to command by himself, how can it be a miserable word?
At this point, within three hours, the Cao army will be completely defeated and annihilated! The situation is critical!
At this time, Cao Jun's reinforcements came, and Cao Ren and Zhang Liao came to the rescue together, because of Cai Yang's letter, he came one step late, but he had to come because Lu Bu and Shamoke came first, and they thought that they were already trapped here; Cao Ren came at the right time, Zhang Liao and Zhang Jaw led the cavalry to charge into battle, and temporarily took the besieged Cao army, seeing the red bandaging on Lu Bu's body, and then thinking that Cai Yang was gone, Cao Ren regretted it in his heart, he shouldn't believe in Kuai Liang's strategy!
After stabilizing the situation, Cao Ren began to show his composure and command the army to retreat, intending to retreat to Jingzhou City for help. Under the command of Zhuge Liang, with the assistance of Tai Shici and Ma Dai, Jingzhou City was broken effortlessly!
In fact, Zhuge Liang didn't do anything but drove the soldiers and horses into Jingzhou City, because the area around Jingzhou, the places controlled by the Cao forces were all emptied from Fancheng to the south. Xun Yu walked fast enough, with the help of the Jingzhou Hao clan Kuai clan and the Cai clan and the help of the Ma clan, the leader of the Shi clan, their migration plan was still very smooth, those stubborn ones were the local wealthy clans and Shi clans, with the bombardment of these three families in turn, they did not dare not move; Because of strategic mistakes and Guan Erye's extraordinary performance, the Shu army occupied Jingzhou City in one fell swoop, beheading more than 40,000 people, and Cao Ren retreated again and again, and Cao Ren could only gain a firm foothold in the Fancheng area with the assistance of Xiahoudun; Cai Yang, one of the nine good generals, died, Lu Bu, the head of the Five Tiger Generals, was seriously injured, and Guan Erye shocked Huaxia! Mighty!
Cao Ren felt that he had made a mistake in decision-making and wrote to ask for guilt, and sent a letter to Guo Jia and Li Yu, Guo Jia is now in Jiangxia County, and Zhou Yu is holding onto him, and he is invincible and undefeated, but because of his defeat, his abdomen and back may be attacked by the enemy, and his previous achievements are lost, and it is still unknown whether Jiangxia County can keep it; And Li Yu and Jiangdongjun in Shouchun have also been in a stalemate for a long time, and they can't be calm when they get the news.
