readx;? The capture of Xu Da's camp meant that there was no Chu army in the entire outskirts of Hushan City, and only 50,000 defenders in Hushan City were left to support it, and the Tusi coalition army was almost non-stop, directly besieging Hushan City from the south.

"Damn, dare to catch up!" Zheng Yun, the commander of the third brigade of Xu Da's Fifth Division, commanded his soldiers to retreat quickly, but his eyes were on a chasement cavalry in the rear.

Antelope, like a sheep, like a deer, has a long horn on its head, like two sharp war knives, very sharp, although the antelope level is not high, but the speed is galloping, these antelope beasts have been shrinking in the rear when they broke the camp and rushed before, the Chu army this "rout", but like a smelly cat, pounced.

"Zhang Sheng, Wu Li, take your battalion head to the front of the slope to give me the ** up, and then send orders to the other battalions, don't rush to run away first, turn around and beat it for a while, otherwise these barbarians really don't know the height of the sky!"

"Yes!" Hearing Zheng Yun's order, the two battalion captains suddenly had a smile on their faces, if it weren't for the order from above, they wouldn't have to flee without even unsheathing their knives like this, but they were holding back their strength in their hearts!

This slope is not high, but from this side of the slope is not visible to the other side of the slope, the field of vision is suddenly blocked, the two battalion leaders quickly regrouped the army, and the other battalion leaders did not look dry, quickly summoned the subordinates who seemed to be in a mess.

The speed of the antelope ride is very fast, like a wind, this slope is actually not steep, how could the pursuing brute soldiers be frightened by a small slope. Seeing that the Chu army disappeared behind the slope one by one and disappeared without a trace, the leading barbarian snorted lightly and rushed up the dirt slope in the first place.

Before he reached the top of the slope, he saw the other side of the slope, and the fleeing Chu army actually turned his head, some of them continued to run, and some of them made a desperate posture. If there were those Chu troops in heavy armor below, he might have to hesitate, but it was just a group of soldiers who didn't even have shields, which was simply his dish.

"Kill!" The barbarian general directly pulled out his waist knife, and the green antelope under his crotch could be regarded as a leader-level, and as he clamped the antelope beast's abdomen, this antelope with a middle-level spirit beast suddenly jumped away. The two horns in front of his head bowed like a gust of wind and pounced down the hillside, and the speed of the downhill, coupled with the acceleration of the green antelope, was no slower than a sharp arrow.

And behind the brute general, countless antelope beasts followed. For a while, the small dirt slope was suddenly filled.

"Zipline, throw!" Zhang Sheng looked at the beast riders who swooped down quickly, but he didn't have the slightest fear, seeing that these antelope beasts had pounced down the slope, and they were already less than twenty or thirty meters away from them. The effort of breathing will rush forward, Zhang Sheng shouted.

Zhang Sheng's battalion and Wu Li's battalion next to him are both old battalion leaders, seventy percent of the battalion are veterans who have participated in the attack and defense of Vermilion Bird City, I have never seen any scene, seeing that the beast cavalry on the opposite side is about to pounce up, but the two battalions are as immobile as a rock. Following the order, the first row of Chu soldiers threw out the flying rope in their hands.

The zipline is a weapon widely used in the Chu army to restrain the cavalry, the production is very simple, two large and small metal balls, between the two metal balls are connected with animal tendons, iron wires, twine and ropes. When ejected, the zipline spins because the two metal balls are of different sizes.

Don't look at it simple, but the power of the zipline is not inferior at all, if it is against rhinoceros beasts, or other larger spirit beasts, this zipline is really useless, but against antelopes, it is the same as tailor-made.

When the zipline swirled, those arrows that were like a string, and the antelope cavalry that rushed forward came directly to the zipline in the next second, although the barbarian saw the zipline at once, and thought of what might happen, but they would rush down from the hillside, and the antelope still lowered its head, and wanted to use the horns to top the man, which would not be able to dodge.

The rope of the flying rope touched the pillar-like leg of the beast, and the two metal balls suddenly changed the direction between them, and used the force of rotation to wrap around them, and the length of the rope was enough to reach the other leg, as if the laces of the two shoes were tied together, and there was still a run.

The high-speed speeding antelope beasts suddenly suffered a big loss, they all turned forward, and the barbarians on their backs were thrown out, and in front of the two Chu military camps, there was a wail, and the fallen antelope beasts made the antelope beasts behind them who also rushed down suffer, and they couldn't dodge it, like falling straw, layer by layer.

"Kill!" Zheng Yun would not let go of this opportunity, and directly led more than 2,000 soldiers and horses gathered to counterattack, and suddenly these lost their speed, and even fell to the ground, and the brute soldiers with swollen heads were awarded one after another, and there were heavy casualties. "Withdraw!" Zheng Yun didn't daz, watching this antelope horse being killed and scattered, he didn't chase it, and once again ordered to run towards the Hushan mountain range not far away.

The barbarian army gathered outside Hushan City was to take advantage of the victory to launch a fierce attack on Hushan City, as the sun set, night fell again, but the barbarian army lit a bonfire outside the city, the flames of the sky illuminated the entire Hushan City, and followed by another wave of barbarian army like a tide launched an offensive again.

Somewhere in the darkness, several barbarian commanders in the Tusi coalition army were looking at Hushan City in the distance, but their faces were expressionless.

The intentions of the Chu army were still exposed, although the Chu army's blitzkrieg was very fast, but the area around Heluobo was Tusi's territory after all, and the intelligence from the air cavalry sent out showed that the Chu army had completely wiped out the Tusi coalition army stationed in the area of the Feishui River, and a large number of Chu troops had detoured behind them.

The barbarian commanders are not stupid, and naturally judged the plans of the Chu army, but there are not many options for them at this time, one is to withdraw immediately, give up the offensive, turn the front of the troops, and kill the outflanked Chu army, but in this way, the previous efforts will be in vain, and the Chu army in front will not let them retreat calmly, hundreds of thousands of troops will retreat, and if it is not done, it will become a collapse situation.

And the other option is to continue the attack, take Hushan City regardless of losses, kill the Chu army in front of you, and then turn around to meet the Chu army outflanked from the rear, or even, to counter-encircle this Chu army, because the Yuxi Tusi Leader has joined the coalition army, and in less than ten days, there will be hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses from the west, and there may even be more tribes to join this feast.

Take Hushan City, and victory will be theirs!

The barbarian army stormed Hushan City like crazy, and the 50,000 defenders in the city did feel great pressure, but Hushan City was so easy to be breached, obviously not.

At the beginning of the plan, Sun Wu and others had already taken into account the current situation, so Hushan City had been continuously strengthened, and it seemed that Hushan City was still the same Hushan City, but the inside had long since ceased to be the same as before.

Countless talisman arrays were used, and the strong magic circle stabilized the city wall, and the city was transformed into a labyrinth, with countless arrow towers, stone throwing platforms, and archery platforms, so that people could shoot arrows and boulders from behind the city walls to the enemy outside the city.

The array mages deployed everywhere will release the strongest defensive spirit skills with the psychics, or attack spirit skills, and in the center of the city, a small pyramid fortress has been built, under the ground, a large amount of grain and grass, ordnance, enough for the defenders to worry about the lack of arrows and food in half a month.

Although the pressure of Hushan City is very great, but it still repels a ** barbarian army, 50,000 troops are taking turns to climb the city wall, the barbarian army is about to occupy a section of the city defense several times, but in the end it was killed and retreated, in such a thrilling process, the defense of Hushan City, in full swing into the second day, the third day.

Gunpowder smoke flutters in the wind, the shabby banner hunting, the smell of blood fills every corner, three days, today is the third day of the siege of Hushan City, Chang Yuchun walks on the city with a knife on his shoulder, this is a rare quiet morning, the tired Chu army soldiers snuggled behind the battlements and fell asleep soundly.

His Sixth Division, as well as tens of thousands of barbarian soldiers and other heavily armored brigades under his command, suffered more than 20,000 casualties in less than three days of siege battles, of which nearly 10,000 were killed in battle, and the tens of thousands of troops who almost defended the city did not have any wounded.

However, they also used their tenacity to make the barbarian army pay an even more tragic price, the land outside the city has been stained red with blood, outside the city, if it were not for the gust of morning breeze blowing, blowing away the pungent and unpleasant smell of burning, it is estimated that people would be smoked to death.

When the corpses were about to pile up at the head of the city, Chang Yuchun had to take out the large amount of fire oil stored and burn the corpses, in exchange for a little rest.

"My lord, good news, my north and south armies have completed the roundabout convergence, and now the army has begun to close the net, pressing from the rear of the barbarian army, and there is also news from outside the city, it is ready for a counteroffensive, the 100,000 Xilin drawn from the rear, and the barbarian army of the servants of the Xiegu Valley have also arrived a hundred miles away from Hushan City, as long as an order is given, the 100,000 barbarian army that has been reduced to zero will gather, converge with more than a dozen brigades in our vicinity, and attack the barbarian army from the east!"

When Chang Yuchun heard this, he sighed and said, "That's good, does Sun Shuai have any other orders!"

"Yes, Sun Shuai said that today may usher in the craziest attack of the barbarian army, let the general prepare, the counteroffensive will start early tomorrow morning, whether he can swallow the main force of the Tusi barbarian army in front of him in one go, it all depends on today!"

"I know!" Chang Yuchun is also quite stressed, the barbarian army does not pay attention to the art of war at all, the siege is missing one, surrounded on all sides, and the abundant troops, so that it can launch a fierce attack on all sides at the same time, although the city is fully prepared, but the city wall has been dilapidated, the barbarian army is really going crazy, this city defense must not be able to hold today, and the city wall is lost, relying on the defense in the city to resist more than a day, it is not easy, especially after two days and two nights of uninterrupted onslaught, his 50,000 defenders are also killed and wounded, not easy to survive!

But Chang Yuchun also knows that if it is not easy to survive, he has to withstand it, only if he withstands it, these hundreds of thousands of barbarian troops will be swallowed in one bite, and if he loses these hundreds of thousands of barbarian troops, it will be fatal to the Tusi coalition army, and Da Chu will also take advantage of the situation to capture Guanglin Mansion in the west, and after absorbing these barbarian armies, Da Chu can be regarded as gaining a firm foothold in Shuzhong, and has the foundation to sweep Shuzhong.

The battle has reached a critical moment!

On the other side, Zhuge Liang, Wang Yangming, and Jiang Ziya, escorted by a group of guards, crossed Longshan Road and entered Xilin County, preparing to go to Heluobo to rescue Leng Zhuo and his party.
