The battle situation in the north was captured by Yuan Shu's army in that county was a drought and tacit punishment, and the Jingzhou army crossed the Han River from Xiangyang and attacked Fancheng from the south.

Huang Xu didn't dare to slack off after receiving the news. He knew that Zhang Xiu had withdrawn a large number of troops this time, and Liu Biao was very likely to attack at this time, so he immediately commanded the army to deploy defenses, and sent a large number of scouts to the outside of the city to inquire about the news, and Huang Xu even went to the southern city wall in person.

Sure enough, at the second watch, the scout reported to Huang Xu: "Report to the general, there are a large number of troops landing in the south, and there are warships all over the Han River. ”

Huang Xu nodded, waved off the scout, and immediately ordered: "Thunderbolt car adjust the angle and transport the stone bullet up!" ”

Ma Jun improved the trebuchet, and this thunderbolt was a weapon for siege and defense. The thunderbolts used to defend the city were even larger than those used in the siege, and could be said to be an enhanced version of the siege thunderbolts, which could not be moved, and were usually covered with draperies, although the people passed through the city gates although strange. But I don't know what it is.

And this thunderbolt is mounted on the city wall. In the case of condescending conditions, and with the addition of an enhanced version of the Thunderbolt, the distance of the stone projectile can reach 250 paces, which is two-thirds longer than the distance of the Thunderbolt used in the siege.

Huang Xu watched as the soldiers couldn't stop carrying the stone bullets to the city, and the archers were already ready on the city wall. Fancheng is a small city, but its geographical location is crucial, and it belongs to the confluence of the Han River and the Xiaoshui. Generally speaking, the attack of Liu Biao's army came from the south across the Han River, but Jingzhou's naval army was elite, and Huang Xu did not rule out that Liu Biao would send warships to carry soldiers against the water. Landing and attacking from the east of the city, although the army was on the side of the southern city, the other three sides did not relax.

There are only 5,000 defenders in the city of Wancheng, if the defenders are doubled, Huang Xu will dare to go out of the city to attack Liu Biao's army who is crossing the river, but now there are ten thunderbolts defending the city, and Huang Xu is also very relieved to defend the city.

Besides, Cai Mao led the army to land. didn't know that the whereabouts of his army had been controlled by Huang Xu, so he immediately said to Wen Ping: "Wen Ping, you led an army of 5,000 as the vanguard, and took Fancheng while Huang Xu'er was unprepared. Wen Ping replied and led the troops away. Wen Ping was actually opposed to attacking Nanyang. But Cai Mao was in the army, and Wen Ping had to act on orders.

Let's say that Wen Ping led the army forward, and from a distance, he saw that Fancheng in the north was almost dark. Only a little fire is lit, and it should be a patrol soldier. Wen Ping was secretly happy in his heart, and hurriedly led the soldiers to move forward quickly.

The sky was dark, and the moonlight was shrouded in dark clouds, and it seemed that everything was very favorable to Wen Ping.

"Dada,"

The ladder reached the city wall and there was a series of soft sounds.

"Pedal, pedal, pedal,"

The soldiers climbed the ladder to the top of the wall. But before he was halfway up, he heard someone on the city wall shouting: "Light the fire!" Archers release arrows! Rolling wood, radium, put! ”

"Suddenly"

"Woohoo,"

"Boom

"Poof...... Ahh

In just an instant, the fire above the city was bright, like daylight, and the bowstring was already full. The archers, who had fastened the arrows in their hands, did not stop dropping arrows into the city after hearing the order, and the rolling logs and stored stones were constantly pushed under the city, smashing many ladders and smashing them, and at the same time causing a large number of casualties to the Wenpin Department.

The Department of Clerkship was originally lightly loaded. Even the ladder didn't carry much, and now it was suddenly attacked by the city, and the soldiers of Wen Cheng's department immediately couldn't stand it and fell off the ladder. The rain of arrows from the archers alone caused them a large number of casualties, not to mention the big killing weapons such as rolling wood and radium.

"Pikeman, push the ladder down" Archer don't stop "Keep releasing arrows!" ”

A series of orders came from above the city. Even the clerks under the city could hear it clearly, the voice was clear, and the guard should not be very old.

Wen Ping knew that the army was attacked and should retreat at this time, but he was not willing to retreat at the loss of his troops, and he could hear the sound of defending the city clearly, and he knew that the enemy general was not far from him. Now there is only one way to win, and that is to go to the city and kill the enemy generals, so the morale of the enemy army will naturally be hit, and then there will be a chance to take the city.

Wen Ping is very confident in his martial arts, after all, he is the strongest in martial arts among the generals in Jingzhou, snatched a cloud ladder, bit the short blade, and rushed up with the cloud ladder "pedaling". The rain of arrows above the city continued to attack, but only Ding Ding Dong Dong "couldn't stop the soft sound" on the stomach of Wen Ping, and it did not hurt Wen Ping at all.

Step on the ladder hard and "suddenly" for a moment. Wen Cheng's whole person jumped onto the city like a big bird, and at the same time, he took out the short knife he was biting in one hand and cut off the spearheads of several spearmen who stabbed him. Several of the pikemen were so frightened that they did not dare to move forward.

Wen Ping opened the gap, and the Jingzhou army rushed up from the cloud ladder.

Huang Xu saw it above the city, and hurriedly shouted: "Don't panic! Don't stop, don't stop, keep throwing arrows down the city, and keep throwing logs and cornerstones! Pikeman, surround it! Spike! ”

Wen Ping heard the familiar voice coming. Rolling on the ground, he dodged all the spears that stabbed him, and rushed into the formation of spearmen, slashing with short knives in his hands, and several spearmen were immediately cut to the ground. Wen Ping did not stop and continued to kill Huang Xu.

Seeing this, Huang Xu took out a short knife to meet him, and asked: "Nanyang and Jingzhou are friendly to each other, why did Liu Biao betray the alliance and attack Fancheng?" ”

Wen Ping replied: "Since the army is exchanged, it is already the enemy. Come on! After speaking, he had already killed Huang Xu, and slashed at Zhen Xu with a knife.

Huang Xu snorted coldly and said, "Liu Biao is really a despicable villain. Jingzhou thief, you want to take Huang's life, and see if you have the ability, kill! ”

The word "kill" came out of his mouth, and Huang Xu had already handed over his hand to Wen Ping.

"When,"

The two knives exchanged blows, and there was a sound of gold and iron resonating, and under the two fighting, Huang Xu only felt a sharp shock in the hand holding the knife, and there was a sour and numb feeling. Knowing that he was weak before, he was inferior to the enemy general in strength, so he immediately returned to the knife and danced, and the sword shadow was clustered, and the silver light burst out.

It is the sand sinking knife method passed down from his father, although the sand sand knife method is the knife method of the big knife, but it can also be used with a short knife, although the lethality is not as strong as the big knife, but it is better than dexterity, suitable for foot combat.

Wen Ping's strength is not as good as him, and he is secretly happy in his heart, and when he sees Huang Xu's knife technique displayed, the sword shadow protects him tightly, and he is dumbfounded! "Not good!" Wen Cheng's eyesight is not bad, he can see the subtlety of this knife technique at a glance, although he is stronger than Huang Xu in strength, but Huang Xu adheres to this knife technique, and Wen Ping can't take Huang Xu down in a short period of time.

Hard-headed, Wen Ping had to keep attacking, hoping to disrupt Huang Xu's knife technique with a round of fierce attacks. Let it show its flaws and find a chance to win.

"Dangdang,"

The two knives kept exchanging blows. The sound continued to explode, and the two were in a stalemate.

Here Wen Ping and Huang Xu handed over, lost the support of Wen Ping, the gap that was opened before soon continued to shrink, and was forced back by the defenders above the city, the battle situation was completely one-sided, only more than ten hands, Wen Ping felt that there were defenders on the city head pressed up, Wen Ping took the time to look back, and now his own troops were about to be forced down from the city, and saw that Huang Xu could not fight in a short time, and hurriedly forced Huang Xu away. Turn back and kill back at the gap.

Huang Xu saw it, and while catching up, he shouted: "Stop the enemy general!" Whoever captures the enemy will be rewarded with 200 gold. The third level of official is added, and the reward for killing the enemy general is 100. Rank 1 more! ”

The so-called heavy reward must have brave men, the defenders of the city heard Huang Xu's words, and shouted one after another, and rushed up, as if Wenpin was a moving vault.

Feeling the increasing pressure to move forward, Huang Xu couldn't help but catch up with him, Wen Ping's face began to become a little hideous, he waved a knife to chop a human head away, and shouted: "Death to the one who stands in my way!" ”

With a short knife in one hand, his head flew together, and in the other hand he grabbed a spear, and he kept stabbing and stabbing his bows left and right, and he couldn't stop slashing the defenders at the head of the city. Wen Cheng made a series of killing moves, slashing dozens of people in a row to the gap he had opened before, and more than ten corpses were lying quietly on the blood path that Wen Cheng killed, blood kept flowing out of it, and some were already headless. In some cases, the ribcage of the chest has been torn open and internal organs are flowing all over the floor.

The bravery of Wen Ping made the soldiers a little afraid to move forward. Wenpin made a decision immediately and no longer hesitated. immediately climbed down the city wall from the top of the ladder, and shouted loudly when he left: "Huang Xu'er should not be proud." He will take your head in the future! ”

What answered him was a series of orders from Huang Xu: "Archer, release arrows at the enemy general!" Shoot! "Woohoo,"

The rain of arrows kept hitting Wen Ping, striking him on his stomach with a clanging sound, but it didn't hurt him. Suddenly, Wen Ping only felt a cold light attacking, it was as fast as lightning, and Wen Ping couldn't dodge well on the cloud ladder. can only barely let the chest and abdomen hurt.

"Ding, poof

The arrow pierced through the stomach and into Wenpin's arm. "Hmph" The sharp arrow shot into his arm, and Wen Cheng, who was in pain, couldn't help but snort.

At this time, Huang Xu's loud laughter came from above the city: "Wen Cheng, if you have the ability, come and take Huang's head." And remember that this arrow was rewarded by Huang! He continued to laugh.

Wen Ping stared at the young figure holding the big bow above the city, although he was unwilling in his heart. But he still gritted his teeth and ordered: "Retreat!" ”

Although Wenpin's vanguard retreated, Huang Xu still did not dare to slack off, and arranged for people to carry the dead robe down the city, and let the thunderbolt car get ready.

Huang Xu didn't use the thunderbolt at first, but used this method to ambush Wen Cheng's vanguard army, but he didn't want to expose the thunderbolt too early, for Wen Hiren, the vanguard of this small 5,000 people, exposed the power of the thunderbolt but it was not worth it, Huang Xu's thunderbolt was ready to be used against the Jingzhou army. In fact, the whereabouts of Cai Mao's army were already mastered by Huang Xu, so he set up this anti-sneak attack plan to deal with Wenpin's vanguard army.

Cai Mao saw Wen Ping's embarrassed appearance, and he was also hit by an arrow in his arm, and he didn't ask the reason, so he scolded angrily: "What is the strongest martial arts in Jingzhou, attacking a small Fancheng, and dealing with children like Huang Xu can't take it." What does the lord want you to do? ”

Wen Ping originally wanted to report Huang Xuying's calm and resourceful deeds, but before he could speak, he was scolded by Cai Mao in front of all the soldiers. was furious in his heart, but he didn't dare to contradict it, so he had to bow his head and remain silent. Cai Mao scolded for a while before shouting: "Let's go back to recuperate, now that the army has landed, wait for the general to lead the army to capture the city, and then punish after this battle." ”

Wen Ping glanced at Cai Mao coldly, sneered in his heart, waiting to see Cai Mao's jokes, and returned to his account directly without replying. Cai Mao saw that Wen Cheng's attitude was not good, and said in a low voice: "The poor family is lowly, hum!" ”

Cai Mao ignored Wen Ping, and immediately ordered: "Since Huang Xuxiao'er already knows that our army has arrived, and light the torches, the army will attack Fancheng!" ”

"Flicker, flicker

Torches were lit, and Cai Mao led an army of 45,000 to kill Fancheng, in his eyes, only 5,000 defenders of Fancheng could definitely be captured. The army lit torches, carried ladders and other siege equipment, and rushed to Fancheng in an overwhelming manner.

Above the head of the city of Greedy City, Huang Xu sneered at the large firelight that kept approaching in the distance. A "colonel" came to the side of De Huangxu and reported: "General, the enemy is about two hundred and fifty paces away from the city. ”

Huang Xu nodded. Said: "Two hundred steps call me." ”

A few days later, the colonel came to report: "General. The enemy was about 200 paces from the city. ”

Huang Xu nodded and said to the little colonel, "Call me every ten steps forward." At the same time, he ordered loudly: "Thunderbolt ready." Huang Xu looked at the thunderbolt that was ready in the firelight, and a large pile of stone bullets the size of a grinding disc were ready at any time, and Huang Xu slowly raised his right hand high.

The school kept reporting: "One hundred and ninety steps, one hundred and eighty steps, one hundred and seventy steps, one hundred and sixty steps." ”

When the school network reported to the school network at one hundred and sixty steps. Huang Xu broke off and shouted: "Thunderbolt, shoot!" At the same time, his right hand fell heavily under the curtain.

"Whew

Ten boulders the size of a millstone flew out, whistling as they rubbed against the air in the air. After the ten boulders were shot, the soldiers at the head of the city hurriedly worked together to put the newly obtained boulders on the thunderbolt car, and Huang Xu did not hesitate, and immediately ordered the thunderbolt to shoot again.

"Whew

Ten new boulders were thrown out, and the ten boulders in front of them had already smashed into the formation of Cai Mao's army.

"Boom, boom

After the boulder smashed into the formation of Cai Mao's army. And it didn't stop. These stone bullets are all polished by craftsmen, and after they are thrown to the ground. These boulders will roll due to their massive inertia, crushing large numbers of enemy troops to death.
