Chapter 797: The elite gather in Shouchun

There were more and more dragoon guards on the city wall, and the Huainan army on the city wall also pushed towards the dragoon guards like a tide.

Knowing very well that if he stayed on the city wall for too long, it would be difficult to get out, Deng Zhan raised his sword and fell, slashed over a Huainan army soldier, and shouted at the dragoon guards: "Enter the city!" ”

With Deng Zhan's order, the dragoon guards waved their long swords one after another, slashing and killing the Huainan army rushing towards them all the way, and ran towards the steps of the city wall.

There was chaos on the city wall, and the Huainan army in the city got the news that the Qin army had boarded the city wall, and they also rushed towards the city wall.

In the distance, in the streets, a patch of torches flickered and flickered, rushing towards the city walls.

Seeing the stacks of torches, Deng Zhan knew that if he didn't rush out of the city in time, he would probably be blocked by the Huainan army on the city wall.

With a loud roar, he strode towards the group of Huainan soldiers who rushed up from under the stairs, and the long sword in his hand drew silver arcs of light in the night.

The long sword slashed, and one by one the Huainan army fell down with blood splashed on the chest or neck, among which there was a Huainan soldier who actually had the upper half of his head cut off alive, and the brains in the skull were still beating, and he fell straight backwards.

The number of Huainan troops rushing from the bottom up was not very large, Deng Zhan rushed into them, and overturned more than a dozen people in a row, and he had already suppressed this group of Huainan troops.

The group of Huainan troops below were only slightly stunned, and the dragoon guards who followed Deng Zhan shouted and pounced on them.

The dragoon guards are all good at swordsmanship, and the Huainan army that blocks them is not superior in numbers, where will it be their opponent, but in an instant, Deng Zhan led the dragoon guards to kill a bloody road.

Seeing Deng Zhan and the others rushing into the city, Ji Ling knew that they were going to the city to make trouble, and hurriedly shouted to the Huainan army on the city wall: "Don't let the enemy enter the city!" ”

With Ji Ling's order, groups of Huainan troops followed and poured down the city wall.

The torches on the street in the distance were getting closer and closer, slashing and killing the Huainan army in front, and as soon as he rushed down the stairs, Deng Zhan shouted to the dragoon guards: "Enter the alley!" ”

Hundreds of dragoon guards followed Deng Zhan and rushed towards the nearest alley.

The Huainan army, which was following them, chased them to the mouth of the alley, but they all stopped, looked at each other one by one, and did not dare to chase them in immediately.

It was very dark in the alley, and Deng Zhan and the others were wearing black night clothes, and they got into the alley, and they disappeared quickly like ghosts.

Standing at the mouth of the alley, the soldiers of the Huainan Army watched the dragoon guards disappear from their sight, but they did not dare to rashly chase into the alley.

The torches in the distance were getting closer and closer, and groups of Huainan troops rushed to the city wall, but when they came to the foot of the city wall, they saw no trace of the enemy at all, only dead corpses everywhere.

Some Huainan soldiers cleaned up the battlefield, and the bloody corpses were carried by them to the open space under the city walls.

The Huainan Army that cleaned up the battlefield was extremely heavy in everyone's heart.

The corpses they carried were almost all Huainan army soldiers, and the number of dragoons lost here was only a few three.

Hundreds of corpses of the Huainan Army were placed in the open space, and a few steps away from them, the corpses of three dracous guards dressed in black lay quietly.

The dragoon guards launched a surprise attack on the city wall, and under the strong counterattack of the Huainan army, only three people were damaged, one of them, Ji Ling was killed by the Huainan army after clearly seeing that he was unable to move after being injured.

"General, this ......" Ji Ling led several officers and his own soldiers down the city wall, walked around the corpses on the ground, his brows were always tightly twisted, and an officer leaned behind him and whispered: "The enemy army just rushed to kill for a while, and our army lost more than 300 people, if it is ......"

"The one who enters the city must be the Qin Army Dragoon Guard!" Before the officer's words were finished, Ji Ling waved his hand to stop him from speaking, and ordered the soldiers behind him: "Pass the order, let people survey the city, your majesty will go there, and the general will go to present it!" ”

"No!" Several pro-soldiers clasped their fists and bowed in response, and then conveyed Ji Ling's order, and someone tracked down the traces of the dragoon.

led the dragoon guards through the alleys, through more than a dozen alleys in a row, and saw a dead end, Deng Zhan and the others did not stop for a while, but directly climbed over the wall, and soon disappeared in the Huainan army's tracking sight.

The shouts and killings on the city wall were especially harsh in the quiet night, and even Liu Wei, who was standing in the Qin army camp, could hear it clearly.

At first, the shouts of killing spread far away, but then they became weaker and weaker, and gradually became inaudible.

When the shouting and killing gradually stopped, Liu Wei turned his head and smiled at Chen Gong beside him and said, "Deng Zhan and they must have entered the city, and I can go back and rest." ”

"How does Your Highness know that General Deng and the others have entered the city?" It was far away from the city wall, and Liu Wei just judged that Deng Zhan and the others had entered the city from the stop of shouting and killing, but Chen Gong had some doubts in his heart and asked him a question.

"If Deng Zhan and the others are surrounded and annihilated, the Huainan army at the head of the city will definitely not let go of the opportunity to hype up the successful killing of the dragoons, I'm afraid they are already cheering at this time!" With an indifferent smile on the corner of his mouth, Liu Wei turned his head and said to him while walking deep into the military camp with Chen Gong: "The city is quiet right now, isn't it that Deng Zhan and the others have successfully entered the city?" ”

"What Your Highness said is very true!" After listening to Liu Wei's decomposition, Chen Gong responded with a fist, and then said to him: "Early tomorrow morning, the main force of our army can dig a secret passage and throw boulders at the city wall!" ”

Nodding his head, Liu Wei shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Pass the order, early tomorrow morning, catapults will attack the city!" ”

A personal soldier responded, ran to the catapult on the outskirts of the barracks, and conveyed Liu Wei's order.

When the pro-soldier left, Liu Wei said to another pro-soldier: "General Tai Shici, tomorrow lead 30,000 infantry into the secret passage and open the secret passage!" ”

Another pro-soldier left, and Liu Biancai said to Chen Gong: "Recently, the Huainan army has had a lot of tosses, and the public platform is also tired, so I have a good rest tonight." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern!" Although Liu Bian's words were an understatement, but in Chen Gong's ears, the taste was different, and he hurriedly hugged his fists and bowed down to thank Liu Bian.

On the night that Deng Zhan led the dragoon guards into Shouchun, Zhao Yun, who was still in Xiacai City, and Gao Shun, who had already led the army south, both received Liu Wei's order for them to rush to Shouchun.

Late at night, Zhao Yun in Xia Cai City received an order from Liu Bian, and Zhao Yun in Xia Cai City knew that Liu Bian must have made the decision to launch a general attack on Shouchun City, otherwise he would definitely not transfer Hu Benwei to Shouchun, where although the two armies were facing each other, the battle was not very urgent.

Sending away the soldiers who came to convey Liu Wei's order, Zhao Yun, who was woken up from his sleep, no longer had the slightest sleep, he stood on the corridor outside the house, looked up at the dark night sky, and was silent for a long time before shouting to the side: "Someone!" ”

As soon as Zhao Yun's shout fell, a tiger guard who was on duty at night stood out from the shadows and bowed down with his fists in response.

didn't look back at the tiger guard, Zhao Yun explained to him: "Pass the order, go out of the city tonight, and rush to Shouchun!" ”

"No!" Hu Benwei, who was standing not far behind Zhao Yun's side, answered the order and conveyed the order to the whole army.

After the tiger guard left, Zhao Yun turned around and entered the house, took off his silver armor from the armor stand, put it on his body, walked to the corner of the wall, and picked up his spear that he didn't know how many enemy generals had been knocked over on the battlefield.

Holding the spear in both hands, Zhao Yun looked at the tip of the spear, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Compared with Zhao Yun, Gao Shun had already walked farther, and when he received Liu Wei's order, the eastern sky was already covered with a thin morning light.

Knowing that Liu Wei wanted him to lead Yu Linwei back to Shouchun, Gao Shun turned his head to look south, his brows furrowed slightly, and he sighed softly.

Leading the army all the way to the south, Gao Shun is about to enter the border of Luzhou, as long as he arrives in Luzhou, with the combat power of Yu Linwei, it will not take long to take the entire city.

On the way south, Gao Shun sent several scouts, almost every of whom brought back the same news.

The Huainan Army's fighting spirit in front is not very high, on the contrary, if you don't go more than 100 miles further, you can find the traces of Cao's army.

Cao Cao's army had left the Yangzhou area and advanced towards the periphery of Huainan, encroaching on the cities around Huainan along the way.

Yu Linwei only needed to advance for a few more days to increase the results of the battle by two to three times, but at this time, Liu Wei suddenly ordered him to lead the army to Shouchun to help, which made Gao Shun feel a little disappointed in his heart.

Although he felt a little sorry in his heart to give up several cities in the south to Cao Jun, he knew very well that if it were not for urgent military affairs, Liu Wei would definitely not order him to take Yu Linwei back to Shouchun City.

"General!" Just looking at the south, a Yulinwei officer trotted to Gao Shun's side, clenched his fists and bowed to him and said, "The soldiers are still ready, just wait for the general's order, and then you can return to Shouchun!" ”

"Get on the horse and gallop to Shouchun!" Hearing the officer's words, Gao Shun waved his hand at him and gave the order to go to Shouchun.

Five thousand feather guards turned over and jumped on horseback, their red robes and fiery feathers on their helmets, making them look like five thousand flames burning, and from a distance, they seemed to be burning in the wilderness.

The soldiers brought the war horse, Gao Shun pulled the reins and jumped on the horse, raised his hand and pointed in the direction of Shouchun, and shouted to the Yulin guards: "Soldiers, His Royal Highness wants us to go to Shouchun, and we must launch a general attack on Shouchun. ”

"Charge into battle and slay the thieves!" As soon as Gao Shun's words fell, all the Yulin guards raised their swords high in their hands and shouted in unison.

The movements of their swords were uniform, and the five thousand simple swords were raised high, reflecting the snow light in the sunlight.
