In front of the city gate, Jiang Qinlema stood at the corner on the left side of the doorway, which was a dead end for the archers of the defenders, and was relatively safe. Under his shouting one after another, more than 200 soldiers fought hard to push the city chariot with a rain of arrows on their heads, and once again rushed to the city gate.

"Bang β€”β€”β€”!"

As the solid beam on the rushing cart slammed into the city gate, the originally tightly fitting city gate suddenly made a "crunch" sound, and then cracked a fist-sized gap.

"Hey, there's a door! Push harder and slam open the gates! Jiang Qin on horseback exclaimed in shock, immediately lifted the reins of the horse, carried the war knife upside down, exerted all his strength, and was eager to try. Obviously, he was going to wait until the crack in the door cracked again, rode up, slashed the latch with his sword, and was the first to rush into the gate.

Just now, Jiang Qin almost wanted to give up hitting the city gate, because the time for hitting the city gate was too long, and he didn't hit it open for a quarter of an hour. During this period, the defenders of the city can completely block the city gate, and it only takes three hundred people to move huge stones to block the city gate in a quarter of an hour. Even if the city gate was broken and there were huge boulders behind the gate, it turned out to be in vain and could not rush in at all.

However, the crunch and cracks rekindled his hope and saw the dawn of victory. With many years of rich experience in the battlefield, judging from the sound and gaps made by the latch in the middle of the city gate just now, he was sure that the city gate was not blocked, and as long as he hit it hard again, he could break the latch and open the city gate in one fell swoop. And he mustered all his strength to wait for the opportunity to cut the latch of the door just to ensure that nothing went wrong, and of course, there was his eagerness to see Zhou Tai inside.

As a brother who has been sharing weal and woe for many years, since Zhou Tai led the army to sneak into the city in disguise. Jiang Qin felt palpitations from time to time, and he was restless and restless all day. I have a vague premonition that Zhou Tai will be more auspicious and less lucky, and it is very likely that he will never return. Lose your life. This ominous premonition became stronger when he led the army to attack the city, and he was always worried about Zhou Tai's safety, and as time passed, his heart slowly sank, and his heart became more and more uneasy, and his eyelids kept jumping. However, except for a little movement at the beginning of the siege, there was no sound for a quarter of an hour after that, which was too abnormal. It's so quiet. The quietness makes people panic, the quietness is suffocating, and the quietness makes Jiang Qin's heart flutter and worry.

"Bang!" With another loud bang, the Chongchengmu slammed into the gate again, and the crack in the door cracked, revealing the latch inside. As the gap grew larger, the latch burst open, and along with the middle latch, there was a thinner bolt at the top of the gate. However, just as more than 200 soldiers pushed the city cart and tried to crash open the city gate in one fell swoop. But it encountered tremendous resistance. The resistance came from the bolt beneath the gate.

But I saw that the middle and upper sections of the city gate had cracked the gap thick with the thickness of the arm, and the two bolts had cracked and broken, but the bolts below had not moved at all. Not only that, but under the joint collision of more than 200 people. On the contrary, the strong city gate burst out with an even greater rebound force, and it shook so hard that it dragged more than 200 armor soldiers back more than ten steps, so that hundreds of soldiers were caught off guard and fell to the ground. More than 20 people were seriously injured in the trampling, and seven soldiers were trampled to death.

Meanwhile. At the moment when the city gate cracked, Jiang Qin rushed forward on horseback. Holding the knife in both hands, he swung the knife with all his strength and slashed at the door latch in the middle. Unexpectedly, this knife failed.

A second before the knife fell, the latch of the door cracked and broke, causing the knife that Jiang Qin had struggled to slash down from the crack in the latch, and then slashed heavily at the object behind the door.

"Poofβ€”β€”β€” click!" There was a muffled sound, but Jiang Qin's empty war knife slashed at a black object again, and made a crisp sound. Immediately, the war knife was choked, and at this time, the city gate closed again, and the gap disappeared, and Jiang Qin, who was stunned, was about to pull out the war knife but was shocked by the huge rebound force when the city gate was closed, and the whole person was shocked out and fell heavily on the city wall.

"Ahh Before Jiang Qin, whose limbs were free, came back to his senses, he smashed on the wall on the right edge of the city gate, and immediately he screamed in pain, and his lower left abdomen was broken open by the wall trench that was not sharp, leaving a wound two inches long and unfathomable depth, and blood gushed out like water bursting the embankment.

A crisp sound of "clang" sounded at the same time as the sound of Jiang Qin slamming to the ground, and most of Jiang Qin's upper body was stained red with blood after landing, and just as he struggled to get up, he saw the war knife that fell not far in front of him. The war knife is his, and he was shocked by this war knife just now, but at this moment, the war knife is in front of him, but it is a broken and broken knife, the three-foot long blade is now only one foot long, and there is still a piece of flesh embedded in the fracture, and the remaining blade is dripping blood.

Seeing the long-handled combat knife that had followed him for many years become like this, Jiang Qin's heart was also dripping blood, and he was extremely sad, this indescribable pain was even worse than the wound in his left lower abdomen. Struggling to stand up, Jiang Qin gritted his teeth and tore open the torn armor, tore off his shirt and tied the wound, at this time his own soldiers stepped forward, took out a white silk from the leather pouch on his back and handed it to him, and then helped him bandage his wounds. The rest of the soldiers raised their shields above their heads, covering them like shields, guarding against the defenders of the city waiting for an opportunity to release arrows.

After a while, the soldiers helped Jiang Qin to sit down at the corner where Fang Cai was stationed on the horse, and he was still holding the broken war knife in his hand, staring blankly at the gap in the broken knife, stunned. At this time, his wound was still oozing blood, his face was pale, and his lips were purple, which indicated that the injury to his left lower abdomen was very serious, and it was by no means a hasty bandage that would be fine, if he was not treated in time, he would die of excessive blood loss not long after.

With Jiang Qin's sudden injury, the soldiers in front of the city gate also stopped, they were all Jiang Qin's troops, at this moment the main general was injured, and they had no intention of attacking the city, so they all gathered around Jiang Qin, looking at him silently. Obviously, they all saw that their general was seriously wounded, and the intestines fell out the moment he slipped off the wall. The top priority is to leave the battlefield as soon as possible and find Lang Zhong to treat the general, as for the siege, it has nothing to do with them.

"Why did you stop the siege without permission? The city gate was about to crash open, but you retreated without permission, don't you think that the general would not dare to kill you? Wei Yan galloped to the city gate, sat on horseback and pointed a knife at the head of the guard under Jiang Qin's tent, and ordered him to lead his troops to continue the siege of the city.

Just now, Wei Yan saw the scene of crashing into the city gate from a distance, and also saw the whole process of Jiang Qin being shocked by the war knife and crashing into the wall wall. Although he was fifty paces away from the city gate at that time, he clearly saw that Jiang Qin was almost disemboweled, and his intestines were exposed, as if he was about to die of serious injuries. Such a serious injury is said to be on the battlefield, even in Xiangyang City, Jingzhou, once the stomach is disemboweled, it will be completely hopeless; Unless the divine doctor Hua Tuo personally intervened, he could only watch the bleeding continue until he died.

The reason why he has this understanding is because Wei Yan has heard of the deeds of the divine doctor Hua Tuo who treated Liu Bei. It is said that at that time, one of Liu Bei's legs was broken, and his left arm was cut off by Li Liqi's shoulder, and he was seriously injured to this point, and he would definitely die. didn't think about it, but he was rescued by the divine doctor Hua Tuo, and it has been more than seven years now, and I heard that Liu Bei is still alive and well. Therefore, seeing that Jiang Qin was seriously injured, Wei Yan already regarded him as a dead man, and could completely ignore his existence; Even if he is not dead at the moment, he is not far from death, but he still has a breath, and he will be completely breathed in an hour at most.

Since he was a dead man, Wei Yan naturally wouldn't take him seriously. Therefore, after he rode his horse and rushed over, he completely ignored Jiang Qin's cunning, and criticized Jiang Qin's subordinates in his anger, and dared to disobey the order and behead the head of the guard.

Jiang Qin came back to his senses when he heard this, but he didn't look back at Wei Yan, he immediately stood up with the broken war knife, gasped a few times with rapid breathing, took a deep breath, pointed to the location of the latch under the city gate, and said in a low voice: "Hit here, squeeze the corpse behind the city gate to break open the city gate and continue to attack the city." After speaking, he motioned for his soldiers to help him onto the horse, and he ignored Wei Yan from beginning to end. Perhaps, in his eyes, Wei Yan is also a dying person, and he can completely ignore his existence.

"Bang, bang, bangβ€”β€”β€”!" The city car hit the city gate again and again, making the gap in the city gate bigger and bigger, as if it was crumbling, and it could be knocked down at any time. When the city truck slammed into the city gate for the tenth time, with a crisp "click", the stubborn base door latch was finally smashed and broken, and then the two city gates collapsed. But instead of falling into the city, the two gates staggered toward each other, and fell out of the city. Suddenly, more than ten armor soldiers closest to the city gate couldn't dodge, and were smashed by the city gate, smashed into meat cakes, but the three armor soldiers who were lucky enough to escape were crippled hand and foot, even if they didn't die, they were crippled.

Just when the three sergeants who were holding down their hands and feet screamed in pain, they saw Wei Yanyang's sword swords, swelling and swelling, old Xia, and the old Xia, and the emperor Ben blasphemy, and the persimmon clan, and the emperor was beating and twisting, and the sword was smashed, and the sword was beaten, and the sword was small

At the same time, with the collapse of the city gate, the situation in the city gate corridor was also presented in Jiang Qin's eyes. But I saw that the corridor about ten zhang long and five zhang wide was full of corpses, and from the city gate to the end of the corridor, the corpses were stacked in three layers, especially at the city gate, and the corpses were piled up seven feet high, that is, the height of the five corpses.
