Chapter 193: The City of Trapped Beasts

Just when Gao Shun and Liang Shuang were holding each other in Zhu Yuanshan, Cheng Yu and Li Xiangru arrived at Shangtai City almost at the same time.

Shangqi City is located in the south of Weishui, the periphery of Longshan, is the waterway transportation hub and military town in the Qinlong region, and is also the last fortress on the periphery of Longxian County.

And the main general in charge of attacking Shangqi this time is Li Xiangru, a general under Liang Shuang's account, and the deputy general is a tribal leader named Fan Tong. The two drove the army to the foot of Shangtai City, quickly set up layer after layer of fences, and surrounded Shangtai so much that the fields that had just turned green were trampled to a withered yellow in an instant.

"Woo woo woo~"

The black clouds overwhelmed the city and wanted to destroy it, and a spring rain stopped, and a continuous attack horn sounded outside the city.

Cheng Yu climbed up the city wall, Wei Xu and Song Xian protected him on his left and right, and the three of them held the battlements and looked out of the city with solemn expressions.

Outside the city, the military camp stretched for several miles, countless armor soldiers shouted, the sound was like rolling thunder, shaking the earth violently, suddenly, in a military camp directly east of the city, a fierce war drum suddenly rose from the ground, after the drum, immediately came out of a loud shout that resounded in the sky, Cheng Yu's heart tightened, and he looked at it intently.

The first to appear was a phalanx of heavily armed foot soldiers dressed in fish-scale armor, and thousands of iron shields were held high above their heads by the soldiers, as if to cover the land. Behind the giant shield, there were columns of Qiang soldiers dressed in five-brocade embroidered battle robes, each holding a bright scimitar, with a fierce expression, and before they reached the city, a roar like a terrible ghost had pierced the sky.

After the Qiang soldiers, there are groups of lightly armed foot soldiers wearing two crotch armor, they hang the head knife at the waist, hold a strong bow in their hands, carry a quiver, in each bend, there must be a huge cloud ladder more than ten meters high to follow behind, people can't help but gasp after looking at it, the continuous army slowly approaches the city, as if like a layer of dark clouds attacking, shrouding the entire Shangqi city.

After Li Xiangru besieged the city, he launched three strong attacks in a row, all of which were stubbornly repelled by Cheng Yu, Wei Xu, and Song Xian, so that the Wudu army and the Qiang soldiers filled thousands of lives under the city of Shangqi, and the Bingzhou army also lost nearly a thousand people.

"It seems that the enemy is about to storm again"

Cheng Yu frowned, pressed one hand on the saber at his waist, and the other hand on the battlement, looking at the enemy troops under the city worriedly.

I saw that the enemy army camp of Xingqi Luobu was almost pouring out, 30,000 soldiers were all wearing helmets and armor waiting for orders, and even the Qiang cavalry were all put on horses.

"My lord, seeing that the enemy army looks like it is bound to win, there is a chance that Shangqi will not be able to hold it, let's retreat!"

A deflating voice suddenly sounded behind him, Cheng Yu suddenly changed color, turned his head to star, and it turned out to be Wei Xu's partial general Wang Sen who spoke, and he couldn't help but look angrily at the moment: "Repeat what you just said!" ”

Seeing that Cheng Yu's face was not good, Wang Sen glanced at Wei Xu, so he had no choice but to retreat and remain silent.

Cheng Yu followed his gaze to Wei Xu and asked, "General Qiu Sheng, what did I say before I came?" ”

Wei Xu pulled out the sword on his waist and said coldly: "People are in the city, and the city is ruined, but those who retreat will be killed!" ”

Seeing Wei Xu's actions, Wang Sen was taken aback in his heart, and immediately begged: "General, the last general has followed you for several years, and he has always been loyal to the general, and he has always looked forward to you, and the reason why he dared to tell the truth today is for the more than 10,000 brothers in the city, general!" ”

Looking at Wang Sen's slightly vicissitudes of life, Wei Xu couldn't bear it in his heart, and wanted to intercede for him at the moment, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Cheng Yu reaching out: "Kill!" Needless to say"

"General, Hugh wants to listen to this Confucian nonsense, he is killing chickens and making an example of monkeys, general!"

Wang Sen was in a hurry, and began to tear open his throat and shouted: "This Cheng Yu is just a Confucian student, and he knows that we are fighting bloodily, since he threw himself into the lord's account, he was named He Laozi's military division, he took chicken feathers as an arrow, and rode on the neck of the generals to and pee, and now the soldiers are coming to the city, he is only for his own selfish desires to give me the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers in vain, two generals, listen to the last general's advice, why don't we kill Cheng Yu now, open the city and surrender, so that not only can save his life, but also in exchange for glory and wealth, why not?" ”

"Wang Sen, if you don't say these words, even if you fight to the death, you will save your life, and now you don't regret it, but provoke the relationship between a certain and the military advisor, but today you can't be left!"

Wei Xu was silent, and with a swing of the sword, Wang Sen couldn't dodge, and a human head was cut off from his neck, and he fell rapidly down the city wall, and then rolled into the moat, dyeing the river red.

Wei Xu returned the sword to the sheath and bowed to Cheng Yu: "Mr. Zhongde, a certain discipline is not effective, after this battle, Mr. Zhongde will kill or chop, listen to it!" ”

Cheng Yu grinned, stretched out his hands to wrap Wei Xu's fists, glanced at the generals behind him, and said impassionedly: "Whoever dares to surrender lightly, no matter how high the official position is, it will end like this, although I, Cheng Yu, am a Confucian student, and I have no power to restrain the chicken, but today I will swear here!" ”

Cheng Yu took out the sword on his waist and slammed it on the ground viciously: "A dignified seven-foot man, his head can be broken, blood can flow, he must not be a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, a man who betrays the Lord and seeks glory, everyone is ready to defend, the sword is unsheathed, the sharp arrow is wound, I swear to live and die with all the soldiers, I swear to live and die with Shangqi, the city is in the people, the city is broken, who dares to retreat, and will not be spared!" ”

The audience was silent for a while, and suddenly there was a sound of drawing swords and swords between heaven and earth, and under Cheng Yu's encouragement, whether it was the soldiers on the city wall or the soldiers under the city tower, they all pulled out their sabers at their waists, raised their heads and roared: "May the soldiers fight to the death with the army, the people are in the city, and the city is broken!" ”

With a "bell", Cheng Yu suddenly pulled out the saber on the ground and raised it upward: "Go to the city, wait for battle!" ”

"Boom" With Cheng Yu's order, thousands of Bingzhou troops poured up to the city tower, each hiding behind the female wall step by step, under the battlements, they all bent their bows and arrows, and prepared for defense.

Looking at the high-spirited soldiers defending the city, Cheng Yu smiled heartily: "Soldiers, the reason why the enemy army is so anxious to attack the city, not allowing his soldiers to have a chance to breathe, must have encountered huge pressure, maybe the lord has returned, as long as we resist the strong attack of the enemy, we will inevitably wait for reinforcements, and when the time comes, we will go out of the city to fight with them, and we will definitely kill them without leaving a piece of armor!" ”

After listening to Cheng Yu's analysis, the soldiers were greatly boosted, and their fighting spirit was instantly inspired, and they shouted one after another: "Swear to guard Shangqi to the death, wait for the lord to come to help, the city is in the people, and the city is broken." ”

Under the great army of the Wudu army,

Li Xiangru put on his helmet and hung his armor, and shouted angrily: "Soldiers, we have surrounded Shangqi for a few days, we have lost thousands of brothers in the past few days, today we have to break Shangqi no matter what, go straight to Longxian, and drive Lu Bu out of Xiliang, at that time we will be the king of Xiliang, so today we must be the life of the three armies, and break the city in one fell swoop. ”

After hearing this, Fan Tong next to him grinned, not mentioning military law, then he could rest assured that he would plunder boldly, and when he waved his black robe, he translated Li Xiangru's words in Qiang language, and as soon as his words fell, he immediately caused the Qiang soldiers to let out a crazy shout, and they praised Li Xiangru's generosity in Qiang language.

Va Tong nodded with a smile, put his left hand into a fist on his chest, and said to Li Xiangru: "General Li, the Qiang warriors are all praising your generosity!" ”

Li Xiangru grinned, pulled out the saber on his waist with a "swish", pointed at Shangqi City not far away and shouted: "Siege!" ”
