Of course, Li Tong and the others did not know about their mistake, but they thought that it was a brilliant idea, and under their urging, Cao Jun's catapults were continuously transported up the city wall.

Li Tong and the others shouted loudly, commanding the catapults on all sides to line up neatly, aiming at the catapults of the Yanzhou army outside the city and the "tower" that looked very huge, preparing to destroy the next round of attacks of the Yanzhou army in one fell swoop.

The air tensed. The shield soldiers of the Yanzhou army were quietly moving forward again, and at the same time, the real tower of the Yanzhou army also began to advance slowly, and the soldiers of the Yanzhou Army Gongcheng hiding in the tower performed their duties, and the shooters holding crossbows were constantly changing angles, ready to shoot the Cao army's shield soldiers who were on the move. After checking the equipment on their bodies, the siege soldiers began to close their eyes and recuperate, enjoying the last moment of relaxation and comfort before the battle, but everyone's killing intent has been constantly diffused, as if they will jump up and draw their knives to kill in the next moment. Their bodies swayed back and forth as the tower advanced, with a peculiar rhythmic agility. Yanzhou's door-breaking catapult had come to its proper position at this time, and in Cao Chun's horror and Cao Jun's helplessness, the Yanzhou army's door-breaking siege vehicle fired at the same time.

Before the huge stone balls popped, the squeaks and wriths of the catapults were so oppressive that they showed great destructive power, and in the next moment, the huge stone projectiles were already flying through the sky with this heavy whistling sound towards the city gate. The powerful recoil of these projectiles caused the catapult to jerk backwards like a drunken man hitting a wall. In Cao Jun's stunned eyes, these stone balls galloped to the city gate from all directions and hammered the city gate. There was an earth-shattering crashing sound, which resounded in the ears of all the Cao soldiers.

The gates creaked overwhelmed. Dust fell from the gates. These stone balls are not in the shape of a standard sphere, but are inclined with a certain streamline. This results in the balls spiraling as they fly out. As the stone ball flew out and the distance increased, the spiral force would become stronger and stronger, and when it hit the city gate, the destructive power produced would naturally be extremely amazing.

Standing on the city wall, Li Tong and the others seemed to be able to feel the tremor caused by the impact of these stone balls, as if the entire Huaiyin City was shaken. Cao Chun turned his head to look at Li Tong. Anxiously said: "It turns out that the enemy's target is our city gate!" If the enemy succeeds, Huaiyin City will undoubtedly be lost. ”

Xia Houjie shook his head and said: "The Yanzhou army may not have results in doing this, you must know that although the destructive power of these stones to the city gate is amazing, these stones will be piled up in front of the gate after they fall." Instead, it will become a barrier for Huaiyin City, what are we worried about? Cao Chun sighed and said, "Has General Xiahou forgotten?" The stones thrown by the enemy's catapults are all stone balls, and these stone balls will break into small pieces after impact, how can they form a pile? ”

Xiahou Jie was stunned, Li Tong's face changed first, and he said in a deep voice: "General Cao Chun is reasonable, you must know that the Yanzhou army made a plan and then moved, and the reason why they did it." There must be a reason for them. As far as I know, there are thousands of kinds of stones in heaven and earth, some of which are naturally hard, while others are hard and brittle. Once these stones are hit, they do explode. "Although Xiahou Jie's people are coarse. But the reaction was not slow. Hurriedly sent people to visit the city gates.

At this time, the second round of the attack of the Yanzhou army's catapults at the city gate began.

After another earth-shattering bang. The soldiers who went out to visit replied in a panic: "It is indeed as the three generals expected. Now the front of the gate is completely broken and broken stones, large and small, and the gate is not blocked. The three of them looked at the dejected soldier. I was horrified, but I didn't have time to speak. A strange sound was heard in the air. Immediately afterwards, the three of them were pushed away by a strong force and fell forward.

Before the three of them could understand what was going on, they heard the sound of heavy objects colliding beside them, and at the same time, a scream of ghosts crying and wolf howls sounded.

The three of them, all experienced in the battlefield, did not stand up immediately when they heard the sound, but continued to roll forward, and only got up when they came to what they thought was a safe area. When I looked up, I was immediately stunned by what I saw.

Not far from Huaiyin City, the huge "towers" of the Yanzhou Army were showing their teeth and claws, but at this time, Li Tong and the others had completely seen the true face of these "towers", and they were actually lifted high and stopped in mid-air, waving their long "arms". One by one, stone balls were thrown in the direction of Huaiyin City. Those stone balls came one after another like rain, one by one hit the head of Huaiyin City, and the huge stone balls smashed the catapults that Li Tong and others had prepared in advance at the head of the city one by one, making a roaring sound.

When the stone balls hit the ground, they began to scatter and explode, flying in all directions with the wreckage of the broken catapults, easily piercing through the fragile bodies of the Cao Che soldiers, and a large amount of blood sprayed outward, making the air smell of blood everywhere. Those catapults are terrible! This thought popped up in the hearts of Li Tong and the other three at the same time.

The catapults of the Yanzhou army did not stop their attacks, and the stone balls continued to fly towards the city with a whining sound, producing an incomparably huge lethality.

With the impact of the stone ball, Li Tong and the others felt as if they were trapped in an earthquake, and their bodies were constantly trembling. In the midst of a huge roar, Xiahou Jie put his mouth close to Li Tong's ear and roared loudly: "What should we do now? ”

As he spoke, he saw a Cao soldier with a huge shield in his hand hit by a huge stone ball, the soldier didn't even have time to make a sound, and was directly pressed to the ground by the stone ball, the soldier was like a tomato full of luscious juice, which was crushed by a foot in an instant, and the muscles and blood on his body completely burst out of his body in an instant, like a scoop, and the Cao soldiers not far from this soldier were all splashed with the blood of their dead companions. The soldier died tragically in front of the eyes of the three people, and the bloody scene was shocking, which made Li Tong, a general who had killed countless people and regarded life and death as nothing, have a strong feeling of vomiting.

Murder City!

It was only at this moment that the three of them deeply felt the terrifying murderous aura of the Yanzhou Army.

Li Tong gritted his teeth and said: "Judging from the current situation, we are afraid that there is no way to defend Huaiyin." The best option is to get out of here right away. Report everything to the Lord. Cao Chun and the others were stunned, and Xiahou Jie said anxiously: "We can fight with the Yanzhou army for a while." At least fight to the end, even if it is to retreat. We should also go to Huai'an City and Yandu City to help defend the city! ”

Li Tong smiled bitterly: "The question is can we hold on to the other two cities?" This Yanzhou army is too terrible for us to resist. This army has completely subverted the concept of urban offensive and defensive warfare, which we can inform the lord in time, although it is our duty to die on the battlefield, but it is also what we must do to share the worries of the lord, for the future of the lord, we must break through. And now that we have time to retreat, if the city is broken by the Yanzhou army, we will not have the slightest chance. Xiahoujie and Cao Chun suddenly realized. Hurriedly nodded in agreement.

At this time, the catapult attack of the Yanzhou army became more and more fierce, and there were no Cao soldiers to approach here, as they retreated, although the casualties decreased, but the city completely lost its barrier effect.

That's when it happened. As if an appointment had been made, the catapult attack actually stopped, and all the sounds of impact stopped. Li Tong and the others looked at each other. Inexplicable: Could it be that the Yanzhou army ran out of stone balls for siege?

Dozens of Cao soldiers even began to move towards the city.

Before Li Tong and the others could stop it, countless golden bright spots appeared on the head of Huaiyin City.

The rockets of the Yanzhou Army! Li Tong and the others immediately understood the tactics of the Yanzhou army.

It turned out that the Yanzhou army was attacking at the same time as the catapult just now. The shield soldiers and divine arm archers under the city were not idle. It's moving forward. Once you have reached the right distance, you start throwing shots. This time. With the covered shot of the Divine Arm, there is no need for catapult attacks. Cao Chun reacted the fastest, and immediately changed color: "It's not good." The Yanzhou army was about to climb the city wall, and it was afraid that the catapult would accidentally injure the soldiers besieging the city by stopping the catapult attack. The armor of the soldiers of the Yanzhou Army is very good against the ground of fire, so they are not afraid of rockets. ”

Li Tong and others also understood.

What else is there to say at this point? After watching the dozens of brave Cao soldiers who were close to the top of the city wall were hit by rockets, their bodies emitted the stench of being burned by fire, and then they rolled on the ground and screamed. No one wants to stay in the city anymore. The whole army retreated, and of course they couldn't see the scene of the Yanzhou army using the tower to climb the city. Otherwise, it is even more horrified.

In this battle, Cao Cao's army has been killed. I no longer dare to confront this besieging Yanzhou army head-on.

At this time, there was a huge roar from the city gate, and the cheers of the random Yanzhou army came: "The city is broken, the city is broken!" Li Tong and the others hated it in their hearts, but they had no choice but to lead the soldiers to rush to kill and go straight to the north gate.

At this time, the city was already in chaos, there were fights and shouts of killing everywhere, and from time to time there was the sound of bows and arrows breaking through the air to and from me, and from time to time there were soldiers turning over to the bottom in the streets and alleys, and blood flowed five steps.

Under the attack of the Yanzhou army, the Cao army was completely powerless, and with the relaxed rhythm of the Yanzhou army, all the actions of the Cao army soldiers seemed exhausted and at a loss. When Li Tong and others came to the north gate, they bumped into the Yanzhou general Liao Hua, Liao Hua was killing the army at this time, and saw Li Tong and others at a glance, and knew that they were not ordinary people in the Cao army, so they ordered their subordinates to block with the help of the troops of the three people.

Xiahou Jie walked in the front, and when he met Liao Hua, the two of them each raised a long knife, fought in one place, and fought equally. Although Li Tong missed Xiahou Jie, he also knew that the opportunity was rare, if he fought here, then no one would be able to leave, so he gritted his teeth and commanded the army to hit the Yanzhou army formation, although he suffered heavy casualties under the strong crossbow of the Yanzhou army, but in the end he broke through a bloody road, Li Tong and Cao Chun took the road and fled.

Although Xia Houjie is reckless, he also knows what to do. Shake a knife, jump out of the circle, and run away. At this time, the Yanzhou army, which had already conquered other city gates and had received little resistance to other roads, had also come here, and as soon as Xiahou Jie jumped out, he ran into the fierce general of the Yellow Turban Army. Yu Man flew up a spear and hit him in the thigh, Xiahou Jie immediately screamed, and crawled on the horse's back sweating profusely. In a panic, he walked in the direction of the city gate.

Yu Man was overjoyed, so he had to catch up. was desperately stopped by Xiahoujie's personal soldiers. It made Yu Man very angry, and the long knife in his hand danced like a wheel. It was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, killing Xiahou Jie's personal soldiers flying back and forth. At this time, Liu Bi and Gong Du had also arrived, and the four armies were slaughtered in a burst, completely crushing the last bit of resistance of the Cao army, and they all knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

At this point, Huaiyin City also fell into the hands of the Yanzhou army without any suspense.

Li Tong and Cao Chun led the remaining more than 2,000 people all the way to the north, and went straight to the East China Sea without stopping. Naturally, it was to inform Cao Cao of the matter here as soon as possible.

But how did they know that they had only been out of the city for a short time? Halfway through, they were met by a large army that cut them off. The leader is a tall and long general, with broad shoulders and a round waist. The face is vicious. Murderous up and down, in the sun. The murderous aura spread like a mist on the Yanbo River, which was daunting.

Li Tong knew this person, and said in shock: "Guan Hai!"

Of course, Cao Chun also knows Guan Hai, if Guan Hai is a top master like Chen Zhi and Lu Bu, it may not be, but his strong skills are definitely the top figures among the first-class masters, and Li Tong and Cao Chun are naturally not his opponents. "As expected. You have to go north to inform Cao Cao after the city is broken, but it's a pity that you can only stay here today. Guan Hai said coldly, but in his heart he admired Xun Youdi's insight.

watched Guan Hai show off his might on the other side. Li Tong gritted his teeth and said to Cao Chun: "You break through first, and I will resist Guan Hai." ”

Cao Chun said categorically: "The general can't be like this. Or I'll stay and deal with Guan Hai. Li Tong looked at the Yanzhou army opposite, which had about the same number of soldiers as himself, but the morale of the army was very high. With a wry smile: "If you stay, you will be killed by him in a few rounds." Guan Hai caught up, I still can't escape, I stay, although it is a little different from Guan Hai, but it will not be so disparity, even if Guan Hai takes me down, I will no longer have the strength to chase the general. No need to talk nonsense, let's go!"

When Cao Chun heard this, his eyes turned red, he gritted his teeth, nodded vigorously, and the two of them waved their troops in a wise way and attacked Guan Hai. "Humph! The pearl of rice grains also dares to shine! The wings of mosquitoes and flies, how far can they be tossed? Although Guan Hai was sarcastic in his mouth, the weapon in his hand did not stagnate, and he covered the two of them together with one move.

Li Tong has a will to die, so he makes a fierce move, full of indomitable posture to destroy everything.

After Guan Hai handed over his weapons, he immediately felt that his arms shook and he was startled, and then he realized that the person on the other side who was not amazing was actually powerful, and he was almost the same as himself. I couldn't help but put away my contempt and concentrate on the battle. Cao Chun took this opportunity to continue to rush forward and continue to flee to the north.

Seeing this, Guan Hai wanted to stop him, but he was helplessly entangled by Li Tong, and he had no choice but to fight with his whole body.

Cao Chun rushed to the east and west, and the war horses rushed back and forth, neighing again and again, and finally broke out of the encirclement and went north. After Guan Hai noticed this incident, he felt faceless, although Xun Yu did not specify how many gains he wanted, but in front of his own eyes, the other party's general actually ran away, which was really an unprecedented shame in his life.

Thinking of it, Guan Hai, who was full of bad feelings, vented his frustration on Li Tong's body, as if striking iron, and hammered his weapon to Li Tong's spear again and again, shaking the latter as if he was in a small boat in a stormy sea, staggering from side to side.

That's amazing! Li Tong was impressed in his heart, but he was happy at the same time: Cao Chun is finally gone, he can have a happy fight with Guan Hai without distraction, as a general, what luxury is there to be able to die in the hands of an opponent like Guan Hai on the battlefield?

Meng Degong, who else will Li Tong chase in the next life, you will make meritorious contributions and serve you as a dog and horse!

Exhaled and spoke, Li Tong's potential was completely stimulated at this moment, and for a while, the competition and cooperation were all equal. Guan Hai shouted in his heart, and commanded his army to intercept the enemy's army and start fighting.

When Li Tong returned to the light and attacked for a period of time, Guan Hai's eyes were full of murderous energy, and he swung his weapon to wrap Li Tong, killing Li Tong, who had already vented his sharpness.

Seeing that Li Tong on the opposite side was about to be unable to support it, Guan Hai's expression moved, and he felt a cold air coming from behind, snorted coldly, turned the horse's head, and avoided the attack of the sneak attacker.

"Xiahou Jie!" Li Tong's voice of surprise came. Before Guan Hai could completely turn the horse's head, Xia Houjie's long knife had already attacked the back of his head.

Guan Hai turned around, dexterously like a tanuki, and actually hid under the belly of a horse. avoided Xiahoujie's sneak attack.

Xiahou Jie and Guan Hai's war horse passed by. When Xia Houjie turned around, Guan Hai was already sitting on his horse and rushing towards him.

Xia Houjie's thigh was bleeding for a long time, but he didn't look at it, he was a fierce general, and yelled at Li Tong: "General, go quickly!" So he and Guan Hai killed in one place.

Li Tong's heart was bleeding, but he didn't dare to delay, turned around and left, to chase Cao Chun.

Who knows if Cao Chun will meet the next wave of Yanzhou troops? It's better to go early. The soldiers around him fought hard to open a bloody road for him, asking him to escape from the road.

When Li Tong disappeared, the sky full of blood mist in front of Guan Hai erupted, and Xiahou Jie fell to the ground and died.

Guan Hai stood solemnly, took a deep breath and said; "There are a lot of good men under Cao Cao, and we will meet again if we have the opportunity in the future!" (To be continued......)
