Yuzhou, Xihua City.

A fierce offensive and defensive battle is underway.

Along the city wall, dozens of ladders were lined up, each of which was densely packed with people, who were not afraid of the arrows and stones flying in the sky, and climbed desperately upward, as if something more terrifying was chasing after them.

Above and below the city walls, there were piles of busy soldiers. From time to time, huge pounding trees and boiling water fell from the sky, bringing up a wave of death, the sound of war drums, and the sound of shouts of killing, which shook the earth.

Sun Jian was furious as he watched his soldiers keep falling from the ladder, screaming and flying in the air, and looking at the more and more corpses under the city.

Pulling out the ancestral sword from his waist and picking up a shield, Sun Jian roared wildly: "Archer, shoot me, volley!" Don't let those bastards in the city raise their heads! ”

A team of archers immediately gathered together and fired a volley at the top of the city wall of the cloud ladder in front of Sun Jian. Several soldiers who leaned out and threw stones were immediately shot to death, and one of them fell to the city screaming, and there were also screams behind the city.

"Sons, follow me and kill!" Sun Jian waved his war knife and yelled at the guards behind him, and then his figure flashed, and he quickly climbed the ladder and climbed up the ladder at high speed.

Without hesitation, the guards dodged out from behind the giant oars and followed behind the boss. When the other soldiers saw that the commander was taking the lead, their morale was also greatly boosted, and the cheers and shouts of killing sounded earth-shattering.

Whether it is the Yuzhou Army defending at the head of the city or the Jiangdong Army attacking the city under the city, both sides know that this tragic offensive and defensive battle has reached the most critical time!

"Brothers, hold on, hold on! Tiger Sun Jian can't be allowed to enter the city, otherwise it will be difficult to save the family! There were shouts from the city, full of tragedy and tragedy.

"Kill!" The morale of the soldiers in the city was violently invigorated, and the city head was immediately shrouded in an atmosphere of fighting against the water.

With the combined efforts of several defenders. A huge piece of wood was thrown into the air, rushed out of the city wall, and accurately smashed into the cloud ladder where Sun Jian was, like a thousand pounds.

There was a cheer from the city, and there were endless exclamations from the city.

"Sons, kill! Capture Xihua. Plundered for three days, slaughtered all over the city, in order to set an example! Sun Jian himself didn't care, he roared wildly, and waved the shield in his left hand. It collided with the shield that had tumbled down the ladder.

How amazing is the force of a huge piece of wood falling from a great height?

The iron shield collided with the salamella, and there was a loud bang. Even the ladder trembled, shaking the people in the escalator under the city to the point that the tiger's mouth was cracked, and blood flowed.

However, the final result was shocking, the iron shield was unharmed, and the salamina was smashed to the side and fell to the foot of the city wall.

"Kill!" Jiang Dongjun's eyes were red, and he completely fell into a rage. Following behind their brave commander, Xihua City was completely submerged......

"The lord is in battle again?" Cheng Pu hurried over with an iron-spine snake spear, and asked Han Dang, who was a fellow countryman and comrade, "Yigong." Why don't you persuade? ”

Han Dang put down the bow and arrow in his hand and said with a wry smile: "Demou, do you think you can persuade someone?" Originally, he wanted to climb the ladder and charge in front of the lord. As a result, the lord grabbed the belt and lifted it down directly...... The lord ordered so-and-so to command the bow and crossbow under the city, what is your name? ”

Cheng Pu stared, speechless.

He and Han Dang are both from Liaodong, and they are quite tall, although Sun Jian is also very strong, but his height is still slightly inferior to the two.

Han Dang suddenly asked, "Demou, aren't you supervising the battle in Ximen?" Why did you come here all of a sudden? Could it be that Simon has been broken? ”

"It's just a feint, is there a certain place or not?" Cheng Pu shook his head.

The Jiangdong army attacked Xihua City, using the tactics of encircling Sanque Yi, he was at the west gate, Huang Gai was at the north gate, and Sun Jian personally led the main force at the south gate.

As a result, the surrounding counties only cared about self-protection, no one refused to send reinforcements, and the officials and soldiers in the city were also stubborn, unwilling to surrender, and unwilling to escape.

Cheng Pu actually didn't approve of Sun Jian's approach, and used slaughter and plundering to boost morale, which could only be used for a while. Calling a name for brutality may discourage some timid magistrates, but in turn, it may provoke local revolt.

According to the right way of the art of war, the defenders cannot be trapped, if there are no reinforcements from outside, and there is a way to retreat, the defenders usually either flee or surrender. Xihua City is just a county seat, the city is small and outnumbered, if it weren't for the fear of Sun Jian plundering and slaughtering after entering the city, how could they fight desperately?

"Demou, don't think about it too much, this is a troubled time, before the foundation is achieved, how can there be room for benevolence and righteousness? These local officials are supported by the imperial court, but they do not want to repay the court, nor do they listen to the orders of the imperial court. In war, there is always sacrifice. ”

Han Dang understood his comrade's thoughts, sighed and persuaded a few words, and then asked, "Demou, you haven't said ...... yet?"

"There is news in Nanyang......" Cheng Pu's face was a little strange, and there was an indescribable taste in his tone.

"Nanyang?" Han Dang was stunned for a moment, and then his heart moved: "Could it be Luoyang...... Winner so quickly? Wang Pengju was defeated? Does the Highway General want our army to come back for reinforcements? ”

Cheng Pu smiled bitterly and shook his head, completely cutting off the hope of his comrades.

As soon as Han Dang's hand was released, the big bow fell and smashed on the surface of his feet, but he didn't realize it, and he just muttered, "He won?" Really won? This, this...... God, how is that possible? ”

Cheng Pu could understand the thoughts of his comrades, and when he first received the information, he was in a similar mood, and was about to explain from the beginning, when he suddenly heard a deafening cheer from the city.

"Oh!"

"The city is broken, kill, kill!"

In the thunderous shouts of killing, the city gate slowly opened, and the Jiangdong army poured into the city like a tide, and the desperate roars and sharp screams were endless, making Cheng Pu feel palpitations when he heard it.

After a while, Sun Jian strode out of the city gate, his body and hands were covered with blood, and he laughed and said, "Haha, Demou, you came quickly." ”

The two generals didn't dare to slack off, and they all hugged their fists and said: "The last general congratulates the lord, and the first battle is Ke Xihua, and the country of Chen is determined." It's been a blink of an eye. ”

"A small town, dare to compete with someone?" Sun Jian said indignantly: "Order, seal the four gates, slaughter them all, and then send someone to Chen County to deliver a letter, see if he surrenders!" ”

"Whoa!" There are guards who take the order and go. Moments later, the screams in the city grew louder and louder.

Sun Jian nodded disappreciatively, turned to Cheng Pu and said, "Demou, you left the troops alone, you should not only come here to congratulate so-and-so, right?" ”

"The Lord is wise. There is a letter in Nanyang here...... "Cheng Pu hurriedly presented the battle report from Nanyang.

"Nanyang?" Sun Jian's face changed suddenly, he dropped his shield and took the bamboo slip with his left hand. His gaze swept over it, obviously looking directly at the results.

At a glance, his tiger body shook violently, his eyes showed an unbelievable look, and the pride and brutality of the appropriate talent were swept away, replaced by incomparable solemnity and doubt.

"How could it be ......?"

"Choke!" He let go of his right hand and let the blood-soaked sword fall to the ground, ignoring the blood in his hand. Holding the bamboo slip together with both hands, I looked at it from the beginning.

"Arrays and Battles...... Fraud ...... Side-Strike...... There are some doorways, but that's not all. It's just a cunning, and it is a loss of Xu Gongqing's great name, how can you ......" while silently reading. The expression on Sun Jian's face was also uncertain, and he gritted his teeth and didn't know whether he was resentful of Xu Rong's uselessness, or whether he was purely unconvinced by Wang Yu's lucky victory.

"Huh?" Suddenly, his eyes froze, revealing a shocked look: "...... Raid Xu Rong's army alone and break Xu Rong's flag? And then with a brigade of elites, a long-distance attack, to break Xu Rongzhong's army? It's simply ...... Simply ......"

Cheng and Han Er looked at each other, and there was also a look of horror in their eyes, in the battle of Liangdong that day, the lord was trapped by Xu Rongzhong's personal guards, and he couldn't get out of the battle, so that the rear army could not get the order to organize the army, and only kept coming forward to die......

And Wang Yu also raided Xu Rong's Chinese army lightly, not only retreated, but also won the victory in one fell swoop, it seems that Xu Rong also died in this raid!

Comparison between the two boxes, make a judgment!

This is no longer a question of convincing or not being convinced, although the lord's temper is violent, but after all, he is not a brainless, blindly impulsive person, after reading such a war report, how can he not be full of emotion?

The joy of breaking the city and winning the victory, and the expectation of marching into Chenjun, were overshadowed by this indescribable sense of loss, so that they were invisible, what else could they say?

"This son ......" for a long time, Sun Jian finally raised his head, he threw away the bamboo slips, and sighed: "I am full of courage, and I am both wise and brave, I am not as good as it, it is better to be far away!" ”

Sun Jian rarely showed such a depressed look, but Cheng and Han Erjiang were speechless, and they didn't know what to say in order to comfort their father-in-law.

The lord is an extremely strong person, even if he is defeated by Xu Rong, it does not discourage him, but arouses his fighting spirit. Therefore, he would rather bear the notoriety himself, make an attack, let Yuan Shu pick up the cheap behind his back, and actively attack the city in Yuzhou.

He did not do this for the sake of turf, but to rely on the resources of Yuzhou to regroup and move his army north again, and he was ashamed!

But now, he has lost his fighting spirit, and he can only say that Wang Pengju is too rebellious and too shocking.

"Giving birth to children should be like Wang Pengju, although I have many heirs, they are all dull." Sun Jian's emotion was not over, and then he sighed again, this time he did not compare himself with Wang Yu, but with his sons.

"Lord!"

Han Dang was taken aback, and hurriedly reminded: "Lord, this statement should not be taken lightly, the second son has a generous temperament, and when he hears this, he should take it as a spur and redouble his progress, and the third prince and others are still young, so they should not have any emotions...... However, the eldest prince ......"

"What about him?" Sun Jian said coldly: "He is also sixteen this year, the same age as Wang Pengju, and he is also conceited and brave on weekdays, but there is a difference between cloud and mud today, is he still shameless and brave?" Send my words back along with the battle report, and let Bo Fu know! ”

With that, he threw off his cloak and walked away, forgetting even the ancestral sword on the ground.

Han Dang glanced at his comrades again, and saw that the other party's eyes were full of the same bitterness as himself.

Now, things are really big, and it's strange that the mansion in Changsha doesn't make trouble!
