Chapter 991: Protecting the City

The north gate of Yixian County, on the city wall

At this moment, it was noon, which was the interval between Ma Teng's attack, and Ma Teng also began to restrain his soldiers and make food. After all, soldiers are not made of steel, and they also need a certain amount of food and rest.

This is true even if it is as powerful as a tiger and a leopard.

In this gap, the Huotou army of the Chu army was also busy making food. The soldiers who had been fighting for a long time fell on the city wall at will, with the wounded soldiers and the corpses.

Today is the eighth day of the bloody battle, and the soldiers are basically used to it.

Since the establishment of the Chu army, there has never been a tough battle like today. Some of the veterans still remember the days when they were under the leadership of Kou Feng, the Son of Heaven, fought and won successive battles and shocked the world.

But this time, many of the robes I knew lost their lives. They don't know where tomorrow will be.

Although it is said that Chu Jun's willpower is very strong, but in such a situation, there is still a little turmoil.

Zhang Fei led his soldiers to walk on the city wall, listening to the wails around him, and looking at the numb eyes of the soldiers, Zhang Fei's heart was very heavy.

Zhang Fei, a general who has seen too many deaths. Kou Feng can also be regarded as a veteran of the battlefield, but compared to Zhang Fei, to be honest, it is really not enough to see.

His instincts told him that if he continued like this, he might collapse.

But Zhang Fei didn't have much to do, he could only rely on his prestige to boost his low morale.

After inspecting the city wall, Zhang Fei asked the soldiers around him, "Is the meal ready?" ”

"It should be almost there." The soldier replied.

"Why don't you go and ask about the situation. If it's good, send it quickly. Zhang Fei frowned and said with a little dissatisfaction.

"No." The soldier said yes and immediately went down.

Soon after, the smell of rice wafted over the city. The soldiers began to eat in large gulps.

Yi County, too shou mansion.

Kou Feng sat on the throne, and below him were Pang Tong and Kou Shui. Kou Feng frowned and said, "The situation is a little wrong. I don't know if I can last for ten days. ”

At the beginning, Kou Feng and Pang Tongyan made a decision together to garrison for ten days first, and let the tiger and leopard cavalry fight with the Ma Teng army outside the city. Drag down the army of Ma Teng, especially the tiger and leopard ride.

He also let the broken army recuperate, waiting for the ten days out of the city to break the tiger and leopard ride, so as to defeat the Ma Teng army physically and mentally.

But now that he has only been guarding for eight days, Zhang Fei almost knows that he is about to collapse. What's more, it's Kou Feng and Pang Tong.

"According to intelligence, the casualties of the tiger and leopard riders are very high. But there were only about 20,000 or 30,000 casualties. Even if the 8,000 broken army is recharged, facing 20,000 or 30,000 tigers and leopards, it is too risky, and it may not be able to collapse with one blow. ”

Pang Tong shook his head and said.

Speaking of which, Kou Feng's defense of the city this time can be regarded as a fruitful battle. The tiger and leopard rode, with 20,000 dead and wounded. It is estimated that Cao Cao established 50,000 tigers and leopards to ride the most significant casualty.

But Kou Feng's purpose is to completely defeat the tiger and leopard rider.

"It seems that we can only hold on for two more days according to the original plan." Kou Feng said helplessly.

"So be it. After the afternoon, Lone himself walked up to the city to boost his morale. Immediately, Kou Feng said.

"This can't be done, the arrows are whistling on the top of the city, and in the past eight days, seven or eight generals above the rank of lieutenant have been shot and killed. Your Majesty's golden body, how can you take risks. Although Kou Feng's proposal was very good, Pang Tong resolutely retorted.

What are you kidding, how can anyone ever see the Son of Heaven guarding the city gate.

"If you go into the world, this is the body of ten thousand gold. If it doesn't succeed this time, it's just the order of the princes. Lonely to go. Kou Feng shook his head and said resolutely.

"This." Pang Tong and Kou Feng have been in power for a long time, and they know Kou Feng's character, and they are really the kind of people who can't pull back eight horses after making a decision. Seeing Kou Feng's resoluteness, he knew that it was irreparable.

After hesitating for a while, Pang Tong said, "Bring more shields." ”

"Okay." Kou Feng nodded and said.

At that moment, the drums began to beat again.

"Knock knock."

The castle is also very large, and the Taishoufu is located in the center of the city, a few miles away from the city gate. But I still felt such a strong drum sound, which was enough to peek at how many snare drums Ma Teng used.

"Shi Yuan is in the middle of the dispatch, and when he prepares, he will go to the city wall." Kou Feng said to Pang Tong, then turned his head to Kou Shui and said, "General Wei came with Gu." ”

With that, Kou Feng got up and walked out of the hall.

"No." Kou Shui said yes and walked out.

"If it weren't for the sinister situation, how could you let Your Majesty be in danger." After Kou Feng left, Pang Tong sighed. Immediately, Pang Tong's eyes flashed and said: "But everything is worth it, as long as you persist for these two days, you will defeat Ma Teng." The world is basically gone. ”

Cheng.

At this moment, the soldiers all had a meal, and they also rested by the way, and their strength recovered a little. The same is true for Zhang Fei, who is kneeling in the city gate at the moment.

Enjoy a moment of tranquility.

Until, the beating of drums sounded.

"Knock knock."

"It really doesn't stop for a moment." Zhang Fei opened his eyes and sighed. But the body was very fast, and immediately got up, took the helmet, and walked out.

"General." The soldiers at the door greeted him.

"Hmm." Zhang Fei nodded and walked forward. Soon, it was next to the women's wall. He looked up and saw that in the camp of Ma Teng, a dense group of tigers and leopards began to move.

Although these guys have lost a lot, they are still not to be underestimated.

"Cheer up the soldiers." Zhang Fei looked at it for a moment and ordered.

"No." A soldier made a promise and immediately went to give the order.

Ahead, at the gate of Ma Teng's camp, Ma Teng, Cao Hong, and Pang De stood on horseback.

After eight days of bloody fighting, the mood of the three people was not very good. Ma Teng lost a lot of foot soldiers, Cao Hong lost a lot of tiger and leopard horses, and Pang De was also distressed by the death of the soldiers.

Therefore, the face is not very good.

Ma Teng said with a gloomy face: "Now, we are all wounded soldiers everywhere. There are very few people who can go to the battlefield, and I believe that the Chu army, which is less numerous than us, will be more wounded. Some clues can be seen from the morning offensive. In the afternoon, we should work harder and strive to defeat the Chu army. ”

Ma Teng supervised the battle all day, and in the morning, a few foot soldiers successfully climbed the city wall, and at the same time, they held out for a while. This is the first time.

The besiegers climbed the city wall and held on for a little time, which proved that the power of the defenders of the city had declined badly, and the city was crumbling.

In other words, their chance has come.

"Even so, I don't have any joy in my heart. I only hope to take the head of Kou Feng and end this war as soon as possible. Cao Hong said with a gloomy face.

As he himself said, there was no joy at all.

This war really touched the foundation of the tiger and leopard riding. Unless the head of Kou Feng is obtained, which makes the Chu State collapse in an instant, it is difficult to make up for it.

Saying that, Cao Hong raised his head and looked at Yixian, with a monstrous murderous intent in his heart. I only felt that the blood all over my body was stupid and wanted to move, and I obtained the head of Kou Feng.

The blood in Cao Hong's eyes flashed, and the murderous intent in his heart was even difficult to control.

"Come on." At this time, Ma Teng shouted.

"Drive."

Cao Hong clamped the horse's belly, and the war horse rushed out like an arrow.

"Knock knock."

The drums of war grew louder. A new round of offensive has begun again.

"Click."

The sound of horses' hooves sounded again, and the tiger and leopard riders, who were responsible for suppressing the arrows at the head of the city, rushed out again.

"Kill." The knights roared in unison, and after eight days of bloody fighting, their morale was still undiminished.

"Shoot." On the city, a general shouted.

"Whoosh."

The soldiers pulled the trigger or let go of the bowstring, and it rained down.

"Flutter, flutter."

"Ahh

Countless arrows hit the tiger and leopard riders riding horses, and a series of screams rang out.

"Whoosh."

"Ahh

After the countless tiger and leopard knights approached the city wall, they also bent their bows and arrows and shot at the head of the city. After that, he bent the bow again and again, and suddenly, there were bursts of screams on the city, and a large number of Chu soldiers were killed and wounded.

"Kill."

Immediately afterwards, the foot soldiers began to carry the ladder and launched an offensive towards the city.

"Kill."

The guards on the city began to abandon boulders, rolling logs, etc., killing and injuring the foot soldiers.

As if in reincarnation, this scene happened every day and was repeated for eight days. But today was destined to be different, not long after the siege began, some of the foot soldiers of the Ma Teng army rushed to the city wall.

And, right near the city gatehouse. Zhang Fei suddenly turned his head and looked at the Ma Teng infantry who rushed up slaughtering those archers, and couldn't help but split his eyes, and shouted: "Chu Dao soldiers, kill them." ”

Because the foot soldiers rushed up and killed some of the archers. caused a small area of chaos, and taking advantage of this gap, countless Ma Teng soldiers suddenly rushed up.

If we don't stop it, I'm afraid the city will die.

"Kill." With Zhang Fei's order, countless Chu sword soldiers began to rush over. "Flutter, flutter." In just a moment, he slashed down all the horse soldiers who rushed up.

Immediately afterwards, the archers filled the vacancy, and the city was saved.

But Zhang Fei knew in his heart that it was not good, it was really not good.

The afternoon had just begun, and there was such a scene. There is also the afternoon, and even tomorrow, the day after tomorrow. How can this be defended? Zhang Fei's heart sank vigorously.

Unlike Zhang Fei, he saw that some soldiers rushed up, causing chaos in the city. Ma Teng was overjoyed, he was also thinking, it had just begun, and there was still an afternoon.

It's enough to break through the city.

"Kill." Cao Hong, who was on the front line, was even more enthusiastic and shouted.

Having lost so many tigers and leopards to ride, finally, it's time to harvest. Take the head of the Kou seal, take the head of the Kou seal.

"Kill." The soldiers were also greatly boosted, shouted and killed, and rushed to the city
