996 Retreat and return
Xiahou Dun's big sword almost got out of his hand, he was very shocked, he really didn't expect that Fan Jinqiang's force value today would be so strong, and he was in no way inferior to a first-class general.
Xiahoudun withdrew his broadsword, took a few steps back, then gritted his teeth, and rushed up again, he made up his mind in his heart, he must defeat Fan Jinqiang, otherwise, he would not be able to stand up in front of the three armies at all.
I saw Xiahoudun's big knife flying up and down, rolling up and blowing in gusts of wind, and the sword light flashed in the wind, like a huge net made of lightning, and the power was extremely amazing.
Fan Jinqiang responded calmly, the iron rod was like a dragon in Kyushu, and the sword light of Xiahoudun was repeated again and again in all directions, and the explosion was endless. The figures of the two people moved so fast that they were dizzying, and they couldn't see any moves clearly.
Xiahoudun is bent on winning, the knife technique is more aggressive, the big knife dances out of a ball, it is difficult to distinguish between virtual and real, Fan Jinqiang practiced a fiery eye, condensed his spirit, and squinted his eyes while receiving the move.
However, Xiahoudun was by no means a nobody, and when Fan Jinqiang finally determined that it was the move that hit his heart, Xiahoudun's one-eyed cold light suddenly appeared, and he stabbed directly without concealment.
Fan Jinqiang hurriedly blocked the golden hoop stick in front of his chest, but he didn't want Xiahoudun's real tricks to be false, those seemingly false tricks were stirred up, and they swept towards Fan Jinqiang's head with a fierce roar.
Fan Jinqiang was shocked, and suddenly lowered his head, but he was able to dodge this fatal blow, and the red tassel on the top of his head and half of the helmet were instantly cut off by the big knife, revealing scattered hair.
Wang Baoyu's heart was raised, and he secretly said that it was dangerous, Xiahou Dun's knife skills are not bad, and there is truth in the void, if it weren't for Fan Jinqiang's many years of fighting, I am afraid that there are no more than five people in the world who can avoid this move.
Mo Qianxun was afraid that Fan Jinqiang would make a mistake, so he hurriedly beat the drum to stop.
Fan Jinqiang seemed to be invincible, and the iron rod danced with a black light, and then turned his horse and left, leading the crowd into the city. Xiahoudun led his troops to chase after him, and the arrows on the city wall immediately rained down, blocking the way.
"Xiahoudun is skilled in swordsmanship, but his vision is limited, I have thought of a trick to deal with him, and I will take Xiahoudun's life." Fan Jinqiang came to the city and said with a little regret.
"Big brother, we all listen to the military advisor, killing Xiahou is not the goal, destroying his army is our goal." Wang Baoyu comforted.
"General Fan and General Mao went out of the city to fight, and they have already shown the determination of our army to resist, and they can withdraw from Maicheng after blocking for half a day." Mo Qianxun nodded.
Xiahoudun, who thought that he had defeated Fan Jinqiang, immediately gathered soldiers and horses to start the siege, several rows of soldiers in front, holding shell shields, slowly moved forward, it seemed funny, but the effect was very obvious, ordinary arrows were mostly broken, and Wang Baoyu's gun and crossbow could not be used.
"Throw rocks down!" Mo Qianxun commanded.
Thousands of stone-throwing carts had already been prepared on the city walls, and a large number of stones were immediately filled and flew downward. The reason for the gravitational acceleration, the power of these stones is very amazing, and it immediately smashed into a piece of Cao Bing.
The wail came from below, Xiahoudun was anxious, personally stepped forward, the big knife waved, and constantly swept the falling stones, Cao Jun braved the rain of arrows and flying stones, constantly pushed forward, and finally approached the city wall.
It's still the old routine, erecting a ladder and hitting the city gate with a giant log, Mo Qianxun ordered the soldiers to resist with all their might, while gathering a large army and gathering towards the south gate.
After a fierce battle for a long time, the soldiers on Wang Baoyu City became fewer and fewer, and the city gate became more and more fragile. Finally, a loud bang came, the gate was finally slammed open, and Xiahoudun's army finally rushed into Maicheng.
To Xiahoudun's surprise, Maicheng was empty at this time, and Wang Baoyu's 60,000 troops had all withdrawn from the south gate.
"Rats, it's so vulnerable." Xiahoudun scolded disdainfully, and ordered the army to enter the city to rest, only to wait for the army to send to Yiling tomorrow, and completely take Wang Baoyu's nest.
"General Xiahou, it's better to take advantage of the situation to pursue, or there may be a victory." The strategist was full of favor and stepped forward to build yƬ.
Xiahoudun waved his hand, this strong attack also lost thousands of soldiers, which made him feel distressed, now that the wheat city has been broken, Yiling is at his fingertips, "Wang Baoyu is scheming, and he is afraid that there will be an ambush if he abandons the city, so he will send someone to investigate and then make plans." ā
Xiahoudun had a strong relationship with the officers and soldiers in the army, which also made him make a fatal mistake, because he despised Wang Baoyu too much, he did not garrison troops outside the city, and all settled in Maicheng to rest.
Early the next morning, the guards came to report that Wang Baoyu's army had rushed back and surrounded Maicheng.
Xiahoudun was secretly surprised, vaguely feeling that he had fallen into Wang Baoyu's trap, Maicheng was too small, and the army of 100,000 people almost filled the entire city, if he was trapped here, it would not only be as simple as running out of food and grass, but also easily cause civil strife.
"Wang Baoyu's soldiers and horses were not afraid, they cleaned up the army, rushed out of the city with me, and went straight to Yiling." Xiahoudun ordered.
Wang Baoyu left and returned, it must be a plan, how could he let him leave Maicheng so lightly.
The army led by Wang Baoyu had already prepared a large number of branches, firewood and grass outside the city, and Xiahoudun's army had just left the city, and it was greeted by a high wall of fire.
The flames were soaring, the smoke was billowing out, and the other party's situation could not be seen clearly, but the opponent's arrows and stones were constantly attacking through the wall of fire.
"General, postpone the attack on Yiling, attack the north side tomorrow, and retreat is the best policy." Man Pet always felt that something was wrong, and cautiously built yƬ Dao.
Xiahoudun was very unhappy in his heart, although he had some skills, but these ideas were too big, either attacking or retreating, couldn't there be a good way to neutralize, think about how to kill Wang Baoyu's bastard boy at this time?
"It doesn't matter, the fire can burn for a while, and when it is exhausted, it can be broken in one fell swoop."
"Our warships are still on the bank of the Han River, only a few thousand soldiers and horses are stationed, Wang Baoyu is scheming, and he will definitely go to sneak attack." Full of pets.
"Mr. Man is too worried, I have ordered the warship to anchor off the shore, and as soon as there is any wind and grass, immediately return to the north shore." Xiahoudun was confident.
"General, once the warship is in danger, there should be no way back for our side! This matter must not be overlooked! Full of pleading pleading.
Xiahoudun was annoyed at this time, but considering that he had a certain amount of prophetic foresight in the previous few times, he finally nodded: "Okay, according to Mr.'s plan, I will attack and return from the north tomorrow." ā
According to Mo Qianxun's arrangement, Wang Baoyu's army stopped Xiahoudun from going south to Yiling, and at the same time ordered Gan Ning and Tian Ye to lead the army and the unicorn beast, march in the starry night, and go to the Han River to fight for the warship.
Gan Ning was once in charge of the Jiangdong Naval Army and was familiar with the nature of the water, so he asked Tian Ye to lead an army of 10,000 and a unicorn to intercept Xiahou Dun's return to the division, and at the same time personally led an army of 10,000 to rob the ship.
