Chapter 217: Breaking through the city
Outside the city, barracks.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, Deng Zhanzheng and Deng Ai are playing chess. Deng Zhan did not move at all when he played Go, but he was quite proficient in chess, which was simple and easy to play, and he put it on the chessboard and had a lot of fun with Deng Ai.
"Master, this game of chess, no more regrets. You always regret your chess, and your character is lost. ”
Deng Ai pursed his lips, very dissatisfied with Deng Zhan's frequent regrets.
Deng Zhan snorted and said, "It's a little bad for the teacher, and regretting a move has no impact." Besides, if the lord doesn't send troops to attack the city, the general will have nothing to do. If you don't play chess with me, what else can you do? ”
Deng Ai said: "I can still read." ”
Deng Zhan glared at Deng Ai, picked up the chess pieces and moved his position, and then continued: "If you read a book, you know how to read a book." You kid reads books every day, and you're about to become a nerd. Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and play chess. ”
Deng Ai suddenly stopped and said, "Master, how is the plan arranged by the son?"
Deng Zhan said: "I don't know the specific situation, and there is no latest news for the time being." As for the soldiers sent to Ai County, Deng Xianzai did not know the specific news.
"Report!"
Suddenly, the voice of a soldier sounded at the door of the tent.
"County Lieutenant Deng, my lord, please!"
The soldier's voice fell, Deng Zhan stood up slowly, no longer caring about expectations, and quickly rushed out of the camp. Deng Ai followed closely and quickly went to the big tent of the Chinese army.
In the big tent, Liu Xiugao sat on the main seat, his eyes were serious.
His gaze swept over Deng Zhan, Huang Hu, Zhao Yun, Deng Ai and others, and said in a deep voice: "I just got the news, there is smoke lit in the west of Ai County. Smoke rose from the city, indicating that the discord had been successful. Regardless of whether Ai Jing has controlled Tai Shi Ci now, or Tai Shi Ci has taken down Ai Jing, the strategy has been successful. Sent troops to storm Ai County. ”
Liu Xiu's divisive plan is to separate Ai Jing and Tai Shici.
The set up bureau took advantage of Ai Jing's impatient and impulsive temper to prompt Ai Jing to take the initiative to fight. If Ai Jing wants to fight, he must find Tai Shici, the two sides clashed, and after a misunderstanding, Liu Xiu had an opportunity to take advantage of.
Ai Jing imprisoned or killed Tai Shi Ci, or aimed at Tai Shi Ci, Liu Xiu arranged for the people in the city to immediately spread the news that Ai Jing and Tai Shi Ci were not compatible. After the soldiers under Tai Shi Ci got the news, they couldn't sit still, and they must seek justice for Tai Shi Ci.
Similarly, if Tai Shi Ci controls or kills Ai Jing, or targets Ai Jing, Liu Xiu's people will also rumor that Tai Shi Ci will do it. Ai Jing has a high prestige in the army and among the people, Tai Shici took action against Ai Jing, and the people and soldiers will resist when they are instigated.
As long as Ai Jing's heart is moved, he will step into the game, unless the two sides reconcile.
However, Ai Jing eventually fell into Liu Xiu's trap.
Deng Zhan looked excited, hugged his fists and said, "Lord, give an order immediately." ”
Immediately, Deng Zhan turned around and retreated.
"Knock! knock!"
In the barracks, the majestic war drums soon sounded, and the sound reached through the sky. When the soldiers heard this, they quickly assembled and lined up in the barracks.
Liu Xiu was wearing armor and holding a Qingyu sword, and ordered: "Go!"
The soldiers in the army immediately rushed into battle.
The yellow tiger was wearing armor and an iron helmet, and the whole person was fully armed. With both hands in his hands and the golden hammer of the drum urn, he took the lead and rushed to the front.
The army fought mightily and approached the west gate of Ai County.
Liu Xiu rode on a horse, and as a Chinese army, he rushed to the direction of the county seat without hurrying. Zhao Yun followed Liu Xiu's side, his eyes were serious. Until now, he didn't know Liu Xiu's specific plan, but depending on the situation, Liu Xiu already had a chance to break the city.
The army arrived outside the city and immediately began to siege the city.
On the tower of the city, the soldiers stationed in the city panicked and hurriedly beat the war drums to deliver the message. However, Tai Shici led 3,000 soldiers to fight, and all the local soldiers in Ai County were transferred, and the two sides were fighting in the city, and there was no time to support.
The defending soldiers kept firing bows and arrows, intending to stop the Jingzhou soldiers from attacking. Unfortunately, the defensive strength was insufficient, and although it caused some casualties, it could not stop the advance of Liu Xiu's army.
After a short time, the soldiers under Liu Xiu's command rushed up to the city tower and began to fight hard.
"Crunch!"
The heavy gates of the city opened with a bang.
After the soldiers who rushed up to the tower entered the city, they went down the tower and opened the gates to welcome the army into the city.
"The city is broken, kill. ”
Huang Hu grinned when he saw the city gate open, and rushed in first in the dense rain of arrows with a golden hammer carrying a drum urn. The soldiers under Liu Xiu's command also quickly entered the city and occupied the West Gate as a stronghold at the first time.
The army poured in, and Simon fell.
Zhao Yun followed into the city and wondered, "Master Xiu, why didn't you see Tai Shici?"
Liu Xiu said: "Because Tai Shi Ci is very busy!"
Zhao Yun heard it in a fog, and at this time, Deng Zhan came to Liu Xiu's side and reported: "Lord, according to the report of the soldiers lurking in the city, Tai Shici and the army of Ai County are fighting in the center of the city. As soon as Deng Zhan entered the city, the lurking soldiers came to report the latest news.
"Kill it immediately and defeat Tai Shici's army in one fell swoop. ”
Liu Xiu's eyes were sharp, and he ordered directly.
"No!"
Deng Zhan got the order and gave the order.
The army that had entered the west gate turned around and ran toward the center of the city.
Huang Hu got the news and immediately rushed to the front. His goal is simple, to take down Tai Shi Ci. After running for about a quarter of an hour, the army led by Huang Hu met Tai Shici's soldiers.
When Tai Shi Ci heard the sound of war drums from the west gate, and saw the smoke rising from the city, he knew that he had won the plan.
This time he killed Ai Jing, which was planned by Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiu seized the gap between him and the soldiers of Ai County and took the opportunity to attack the city. There were only a few hundred soldiers stationed on the city tower, and under Liu Xiu's strong attack, they could not resist.
Knowing Liu Xiu's plan, Tai Shici didn't dare to leave any more hands, and quickly killed the county lieutenant and the county cheng, and after defeating the local soldiers in Ai County, he turned around and killed, wanting to rush to the city tower to save the situation.
However, after all, it was a step too late.
Liu Xiu has entered the city!
Ai County was broken by Liu Xiu.
Tai Shici saw Huang Hu who was carrying a drum urn in and out to kill, and he was angry, and he shouted: "Yellow Tiger, take your life." With a shake of the big gun in his hand, Tai Shi Ci rushed towards Huang Hu.
Kill the Yellow Tiger and get rid of one of Liu Xiu's arms.
Tai Shi Ci sprinted with a gun, and Jiang Tianzhang and the soldiers under his command also launched a charge.
The two armies fought each other in an instant.
Yellow Tiger grinned, revealing a mouthful of large white teeth. When he saw Tai Shici rushing over, he smiled, and he also greeted him with a drum urn and a golden hammer.
"Cloak hammer, kill!"
Huang Hu roared, and when he was only two zhang away from Tai Shi Ci, his left foot was on the ground, standing in a lunge, and his right foot was on the side, drawing an arc, and the center of gravity of his body shifted downward.
The drum urn in his left hand is crossed by the chest to protect the space in front of his chest. The golden hammer of the drum urn in his right hand cut an arc in the air, and with a whistling sound, it smashed towards Tai Shici.
The momentum of the hammer is huge, and it is terrifying.
Tai Shici's big gun shook, like a python turning over, and the gun slammed down.
"Bell!"
The weapon slammed into it with a loud bang.
The power of the shock made Tai Shici's hands holding the big gun numb.
"What a strong force!"
Tai Shi Ci's heart was shocked, but his hand did not stop at all, the big gun grazed on the golden hammer of the drum urn, and the tip of the spear probed forward, like a poisonous snake out of a hole, stabbing at the center of Huang Hu's eyebrows.
Huang Hu's right hammer went up, and he pushed away Tai Shici's shot, and the left hammer was immediately swung.
"Whew!"
The wind howled, and the drum urn and golden hammer swept towards Tai Shici's chest.
Tai Shi Ci hurriedly retreated, he stared at Huang Hu, gasping for breath. After fighting Huang Hu for a short time just now, he felt extremely dangerous, because Huang Hu's strength was too strong, and he was also very flexible, which was difficult to deal with.
Huang Hu put his hammer across his chest and grinned: "Tai Shici, you will definitely lose this battle." Look at the soldiers under your command, they are already showing fatigue, and they can't stop it. ”
A steady stream of Jingzhou soldiers poured in, and the soldiers under Tai Shici's command had just experienced a bloody battle, and now they were physically exhausted and were not the opponents of the Jingzhou soldiers.
Both physical strength and numbers are far from sufficient.
Tai Shici swept his eyes left and right, and his heart sank.
At this moment, Huang Hu moved, raised the drum urn golden hammer in his hand, and roared: "Meteor hammer, kill!"
The golden hammer is quick and fast, compared to the power of the cloak hammer. The meteor hammer was dexterous and fast, and all of a sudden, it had arrived in front of Tai Shici
