Chapter 194: Fierce Battle

Sun Jian personally led tens of thousands of elites to wait outside the city. Half an hour later, the gates suddenly opened, and torches were lit on the city. Sun Jian's eyes lit up and he shouted loudly: "Enter the city!" "The army will move.

"Wait a minute." Zhou Yu suddenly shouted. The army that had just started immediately stopped. Sun Jian asked puzzledly, "What does Gong Jin mean by this?" ”

Zhou Yu looked at the torches on the tower of the city gate in the distance, frowned, and said, "Something is wrong!" It stands to reason that it is impossible for Lu Bujun to be unaware at this moment, but why is the city so quiet! Sun Jian said angrily: "Don't worry too much!" Now is the time to take this city, don't mistake yourself! "Words fall and actions are needed. Zhou Yu hurriedly said: "If the lord must go, please order other generals to be the front!" "How does this work?" As the lord, how can I let my subordinates be in danger? Zhou Yu hurriedly said: "If the lord has three longs and two shorts, won't the lord's great cause die halfway!" I hope that the lord will not take risks lightly! ”

Sun Jian felt that what Zhou Yu said had some truth, and he was not obsessed, so he ordered a vanguard general, Sun Kai, a brother of his clan, to lead 3,000 soldiers as the vanguard to enter the city first, and he himself led the main force into the city gate.

The army set off, and Sun Kai led 3,000 foot soldiers to march at the forefront. After a few moments, enter the city first. What everyone didn't expect was that as soon as the three thousand forwards entered the city, the city gate suddenly closed, and a torch suddenly lit up on the originally dark city wall, turning the night into day.

Sun Jian was shocked and hurriedly ordered the army to seize the city. The army roared up, and countless crossbowmen appeared on the city wall, and thousands of arrows were fired in unison, and the wind from the rain of arrows blew the torches violently! Sun Jianjun, who was close to him, was shot to the ground one after another, and the screams rang out, and many people rolled into the moat!

At the same time, Sun Kai and the three thousand Sun Jianjun, who were trapped in the urn city, panicked like ants on a hot pot, making a mess. Sun Kai ordered his sergeants to break the city gate and escape. At this moment, arrows rained down all around, and rolling stones and trees were also thrown down, rumbling into a loud sound, and Sun Jian's soldiers fell one after another, flesh and blood flew sideways, and there was no place to fight back; Sun Kai, who was shouting, was shot in the right eye by an oncoming arrow, screamed, turned over and fell off his horse.

After a while, there were no more people standing in the urn city, layers of corpses, a strong smell of blood, and several seriously injured soldiers wriggling in the corpse pile.

Zhou Yu frowned when he heard that the movement in the urn city had disappeared, and hurriedly said to Sun Jian: "Lord, Sun Kai and the three thousand pioneers may have all been killed!" Sun Jian was taken aback: "What? Zhou Yu said: "Listen, the lord has no movement in the urn city!" Sun Jian listened carefully, and if this was the case, a nameless fire surged into his heart, "Damn! I vow to kill Yan Yan and avenge Sun Kai! ”

"Lord, retreat for the time being!" Zhou Yu said.

"Nope! You go back and bring me all the troops! If you don't take this city, you will not stop fighting! ”

Zhou Yu was shocked, "Lord, don't be rash!" ”

Sun Jian looked at Zhou Yu fiercely and shouted, "Are you the lord or am I the lord?" Zhou Yu couldn't, so he had to obey the order and go down to transfer troops.

Soon after, Sun Jian's army drove to the city. The army began to storm and surged towards the city walls!

This battle lasted until dawn, from morning to dusk, and again until dawn. The corpses of the soldiers on both sides under the city walls were several meters high, and the moat rippled with bright red colors; Destroyed siege towers and arrow towers are scattered on the battlefield, and new siege towers and arrow towers are constantly entering the battlefield; The fierce battle on the city wall continued, and Sun Jianjun continued to climb the city wall along the ladder; Chirp, a loud bang suddenly swept across the battlefield, and the powerful guns and arrows fired by the bed crossbow swept across the city, and several soldiers of Sun Jianjun's army, who had not established a stable foothold, were instantly penetrated and died; The rumbling sound of the rolling stone and the sassal wood was endless, and the ladders were blown up, and the flesh and blood of the soldiers of Sun Jian flew everywhere.

Zhou Yu's brows furrowed, Sun Jian was no longer as impulsive as before.

"Lord, you can't fight like this! The losses are too great, even if the city is captured, what's the point? Zhou Yu persuaded.

Sun Jian showed hesitation, "Collect the troops." ”

Awesome ...... The golden bell rang loudly. Sun Jianjun, who had been attacking for a day and a night, finally stopped attacking and receded like a tidal wave.

Yan Yan breathed a sigh of relief, he was not afraid of fighting again, but he couldn't stand such a loss.

Luoyang.

Zhang Lang put down the urgent military report he had just received, and frowned. Zhuge Liang, who was sitting on the left, asked, "Is Sun Jianjun attacking Hanzhong?" Zhang Lang nodded, "Sun Jian's offensive is extremely fierce, and our army has suffered great losses!" I'm worried that Yan Yan won't be able to hold on! Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "The lord doesn't need to worry, the old general Yan Yan is old and strong, and he will definitely be able to persevere!" Zhang Lang frowned and said, "But we can't just be beaten so passively!" ”

Zhuge Liang said in embarrassment: "Now the armies of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are forced near Luoyang!" The main force simply can't be turned away! The three of them seem to have reached a tacit understanding! For today's plan, I can only be trapped, and I hope that Sun Jian will retreat after a huge loss! ”

Huang Yueying said: "Maybe there is another way." The two looked at Huang Yueying, who was sitting on the right. Huang Yueying smiled slightly, "Sun Jian has just taken control of Xiangyang, and the people's hearts are not attached, and those former Jingzhou soldiers who have newly surrendered are still suspicious, and Sun Jian must be on guard!" In this way, we can send people to Xiangyang to spread rumors, one saying that Sun Jian did not believe in the Jingzhou army and was preparing to carry out a great purge, and the other said that the Xiangyang army soldiers were still finally the old master and wanted the cavalry to restore the rule of the Liu family. ”

Zhuge Liang high-fived and said, "Wonderful! Even if this plan fails, it can distract Sun Jian and prevent him from attacking Hanzhong wholeheartedly! ”

Zhang Lang nodded sympathetically. looked at Huang Yueying, and it happened that Huang Yueying was also looking at him. Zhang Lang winked at her, Huang Yueying couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when she saw that Zhang Lang was like this in front of outsiders, and gave him an angry look. Zhang Lang smiled.

Zhang Lang is calculating his opponents here, and his opponents are not now, they are also calculating him.

Guo Jia said to Cao Cao: "Lord, you can make Lu Bu uncomfortable!" ”

"Oh? What is the clever plan of Fengxiao, come quickly! ”

Guo Jia smiled and said: "There are many barbarians in the Nanzhong region, and the central government of the Han Dynasty was relatively weak in its control over Hanzhong, but now the barbarians in those places have a tendency to stand on their own, so it is better to send a secret envoy to Nanzhong in the name of heaven." Grant the Nanzhong Ministries the right to stand on their own, and in this way, they will inevitably attack Lu Bu! ”

Cao Cao was a little unsure: "Can the barbarians in Nanzhong play the role we want?" "Absolutely!"

Cao Cao nodded, "Okay!" Send a secret envoy with the edict of the Son of Heaven to Nanzhong! ”
