Sun Jian retreated to Kuimen, and the repeated fierce battles had exhausted the upper and lower levels.

Sun Jian stood on the west wall of Kuimen, looking at the thousands of mountains and ravines in the west, and couldn't help but be a little depressed, after sacrificing so much and spending so much effort, he actually retreated back!

Zhou Tai came behind Sun Jian, hugged his fists and said, "My lord, the letter sent by the Metropolitan Governor." The letter was then submitted. Sun Jian took the letter, opened it, looked at it, and sighed, "It's too late!" If we had come a few days earlier, the losses of our army would not have been so great! It turned out that Zhou Yu said in the letter the movements of Ma Chao's Blue Wolf Army, and attached his own judgment, but due to geographical barriers, this letter was sent to Sun Jian's hands for a few days, if Sun Jian could get Zhou Yu's letter in the first time, maybe the whole battle situation would be completely different.

Sun Jian put down the letter, looked at the sky in the distance and frowned, he was now worried about the situation on Zhou Yu's side, and at the same time, he also had a kind of expectation, since the only mobile force of the Lu Bu army, the Blue Wolf Army, had arrived here, would Hanzhong be able to occupy it smoothly?

At this time, the siege of Hanzhong was in full swing, Zhou Yu was urging the army to storm the city day and night, flying and insisting on covering the sky and the sun, the attacking troops were like a constantly surging tide of Lang, and the shouts and screams were intertwined with the earth-shattering! The defenders have reached the limit, Zhuge Liang has mobilized all the middle-aged men in the city, the battle situation is precarious, and the city of Hanzhong is like a flat boat in the storm, as if it will be swallowed up by the terrible Lang tide at any time. Zhuge Liang didn't count on Ma Chao's Blue Wolf Army, because he judged that even if Ma Chao successfully repelled Sun Jian, he would not be able to rush north to help, because the troops on the southern front should be almost fighting at this moment, and if the Blue Wolf Army left, the southern front would be in danger again.

The sun was gradually setting in the west, and it was already dusk of the day, but Sun Jianjun's fierce attack still did not stop.

Zhuge Liang stood in the attic looking at the northern sky, his brows furrowed, and he prayed in his heart.

Sun Jianjun's offensive gradually weakened, and the continuous onslaught also exhausted their energy.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu could only temporarily order the army to stop the offensive and take a short rest.

The battlefield suddenly fell silent, if it weren't for the heavy smell of blood in the air, if it weren't for the mountains of corpses piled up and down the city walls, it almost made people think that the battle just now was clearly an illusory dream.

Zhou Yu couldn't sleep peacefully, lying on the map with his brows furrowed. The tenacity of Lu Bujun was beyond his imagination, he felt that if he were to change to any other army, he would have already broken through to Xichuan, but Lu Bujun resisted! I wonder what the situation is on the lord's side?

A herald rushed in, bowed, and presented a letter with both hands: "The lord has sent a letter." Zhou Yu hurriedly took the letter, opened it, read it again, and frowned. Put down the letter and look at the map: what to do? In today's situation, the only way to quickly occupy Hanzhong is to occupy Hanzhong, and once Hanzhong is occupied, the whole game of chess will be alive! Nishikawa will also be cut off from the Kanchu region!

Zhou Yu made up his mind that he must take Hanzhong within one day at any cost. His eyes were fixed on Hanzhong City, and his eyes showed the taste of desperateness.

At this time, Zhuge Liang's oil lamp in the city was still on, Zhuge Liang sat under the lamp and looked at the map with his brows furrowed, he had a premonition in his heart, a not very good premonition, maybe tomorrow would be a life-and-death battle. Zhuge Liang, who was originally dashing, actually looked a little old under the lamp, and the hard work of the past few days also made him tired!

Zhuge Liang climbed the city wall, the soldiers on the city wall staggered and stood, there were not many people, and almost everyone was injured, and even many young adults in the city had already gone to the city wall. Looking up at the outside of the city, the continuous campfire pressed on Zhuge Liang's heart like a boulder, extremely heavy! Zhuge Liang frowned.

Wu Yi came to Zhuge Liang's side and said with a tired face: "There are not many brothers left, I don't know how long we can stay!" Zhuge Liang patted him on the shoulder and encouraged: "Don't lose confidence!" I am absolutely convinced that the situation will get better and we will win! Now is like the darkness before the dawn, the most difficult time, but as long as we get through it, we can usher in the dawn of victory! Zhuge Liang's words made Wu Yi recover a little confidence, and Wu Yi smiled bitterly: "The general had better hurry up, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to see the general!" Zhuge Liang said categorically: "It will be." ”

Early the next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, the thrilling war drums rang out, and Sun Jian's army surged in the early morning mist. Fierce war has broken out again! Sun Jianjun continued to attack the city wall like a frenzy, and the defenders usually resisted, one by one the soldiers fell down from the city wall, and the rain of arrows on both sides flew all over the sky, and the wolf smoke was billowing up and down the city wall!

An hour later, a section of the eastern city wall was lost, and Sun Jian's army surged in through the gap to rapidly expand the victory. Wu Yi's only 1,000 reserves counterattacked, and after a bloody battle, Wu Yi was seriously injured, and the 1,000 reserves were lost, but they failed to recapture the city wall. The fierce fighting continues, and the situation is becoming more and more critical.

A bloodied officer stumbled in front of Zhuge Liang, fell to the ground, and panted to report: "The East City Gate, soon, about to be lost!" ”

Zhuge Liang frowned, "How many reserves are there?" All into battle! ”

The officer shook his head, "No! General Wu, led us to counterattack, failed, the whole army was annihilated, and General Wu was seriously wounded! ”

Zhuge Liang's heart was shocked: It's come to this point?! What to do? Abandon? Zhuge Liang immediately vetoed this idea, if Hanzhong is lost, his own situation will become very unfavorable, Xichuan will lose contact with Guanzhong, and Xichuan will be difficult to keep! And if you lose Hanzhong, you won't have the face to see the general! Even if you fight for your life, you can't take a step back! Turning his head and shouting at his soldiers, "Fetch my armor!" "The sergeant is going to battle too!

A moment later, Zhuge Liang led his two hundred or so soldiers into the battlefield. However, their arrival did not turn the tide of the battle, and the situation continued to slide into the abyss! The defenders are like a that quickly breaks in the face of the stormy waves, and it is possible to completely collapse at any time!

The sun was setting, there was no hope for Lu Bu's army, the city gate was breached, and the remnants of the Pingnan army and militia retreated into the city to continue to resist, but that resistance should be only in vain, the general trend has gone, and the occupation is irretrievable!

Zhuge Liang looked at the surging army, and the frowning brows that had been frowning all this time finally relaxed.
