Chapter 8 Reinforcements!

The fighting continues, Huangfu Song is desperate, Zhu Jun is still evading Zhang Bao's pursuit, the officers and soldiers have fought to the point of losing their strength However, the Yellow Turban Army is still gathering together, the officers and soldiers have arrived batch after batch, the Yellow Turban Army has been in waves, as if it is endless, the corpses around Huangfu Song are piled up, there are officers and soldiers and there are also Yellow Turban Army.

Seeing that there were fewer and fewer officers and soldiers around Huangfu Song, Zhang Liang laughed loudly: "Go, give it to me!" beheaded Huangfu Song. ”

"It's over, it's all over." The officers and men were in despair. There are too many Yellow Turban Army, and after killing wave after wave, they will immediately make up for it, and there are less than 1,000 officers and soldiers gathered around Huangfu Song, and there are still tens of thousands of Yellow Turban Army.

Some officers and men have already given up resistance, while others have chosen to surrender or flee, and it can be said that the officers and men have failed to break through this time. The Yellow Turban Army also suffered heavy casualties, and in just two hours, the Yellow Turban Army has already killed more than 30,000 people, and the number of casualties is still increasing; compared with the Yellow Turban officers and men who died a quarter in battle, more than 20,000 people, after all, the officers and men have been trained, and compared with the Yellow Turban Army, which is completely an ordinary person, the combat effectiveness is still very strong, but the difference in numbers and the bottom of morale have greatly reduced the combat effectiveness of officers and men.

The battle lasted for three full hours, Zhu Jun was finally captured alive, the 30,000 officers and soldiers led by him were killed and wounded as many as 16,000, the 20,000 officers and soldiers who broke through the south gate and the west gate were disabled, and the 30,000 officers and soldiers at the east gate were now only more than 10,000 people around Huangfu Song, and the 10,000 people were divided into five parts.

Zhang Bao took Zhu Jun to make peace with Zhang Liang, Zhang Bao said: "Second brother, stop, our army is almost halfway through the casualties, and if we continue to fight, the eldest brother's plan will not be completed." ”

Zhang Liang said unwillingly: "But you can kill Huangfu Song soon, as long as you kill Huangfu Song, there will be no one to lead the army in the Han Dynasty, we will make peace with the eldest brother, and the Han will be destroyed in the near future." ”

"Second brother, surround Huangfu Song, he doesn't have many soldiers and horses under him, he only besieges them and traps them."

"But third brother, I can't bear it anymore, how much loss do we have to eat from the old horseman? I don't want to wait any longer. Zhang Liang said.

"Second brother, our soldiers and horses have been fighting for a day, people are sleepy and tired, and they must be repaired, and the officers and soldiers are the same, they can't run."

Zhang Liang was very reluctant to order a rest, and after this battle, the Yellow Turban Army had killed more than 70,000 people, and the price paid was too great.

The Yellow Turban Army withdrew, Huangfu Song was half-kneeling on the ground, he was exhausted, glanced at the retreating Yellow Turban Army, and fell to the ground.

When he woke up again, he was already in Yang Zhai's Taishou Mansion.

As soon as he woke up, all the surviving generals rushed to him, "General, you are awake." ”

"The breakthrough failed, and it was Ben's fault. What was the situation like? ”

"General Zhu Jun was captured alive." One will be the way.

Groov! The first news was like this, Huangfu Song almost vomited blood, but he still held back, and motioned to the man to continue, the general hesitated for a moment and continued: "Eighty thousand officers and soldiers, more than 50,000 people were killed in battle, 10,000 defected to the enemy, 10,000 fled, and now there are less than 8,000 people in the city. ”

"Ahh Huangfu Song screamed, fainted, everyone hurriedly rescued, Huangfu Song woke up and cried bitterly: "Your Majesty, the minister is incompetent, even a little yellow turban thief can't be pacified, killed 50,000 sons, and the minister deserves death." The only way to apologize is death. As he spoke, he drew his sword and prepared to kill himself, but the soldiers around him hurriedly stopped: "General, don't do this, we got the news that General Lu Zhi has sent troops to the rescue, and the rest of the reinforcements from all over the country are also rushing over, as long as we hold on, we will definitely defeat the Yellow Turban Thief." Don't think about it. ”

Huangfu Song nodded: "You guys go out, let me be alone for a while." ”

Seeing that his mood has stabilized, the generals are also relieved to leave.

In the Yellow Turban barracks, Zhang Liang heard that Huangfu Song refused to leave the city, so he scolded angrily: "I said that I couldn't let go of such a good opportunity, but you didn't listen, and now it's back to the previous state, we killed 80,000 people in battle, what did we get?" Third child, you say, ah? ”

Zhang Bao was silent, he didn't expect this, and then the herald rushed in: "Report, General Digong, reinforcements from all over the country are rushing to support Yang Zhai, and the nearest army will arrive in about five days." ”

"What!" Zhang Liang was shocked, "Quickly assemble a large army to attack Yangzhai City, and it must be defeated within three days." ”

Soon the army assembled and launched a fierce attack on Yangzhai City.

The defenders inside the city gate were shocked: "What's going on?" How did the Yellow Turbans suddenly attack? ”

"Hurry up and report to General Huangfu."

Huang Fu Song was also shocked when he heard this: "The Yellow Turban Army launched a large-scale attack, did they already know that reinforcements were coming?" Prepare to break through Yangzhai City before reinforcements arrive. Fast! Strengthen your defenses and don't let them in. ”

The offensive and defensive battles were originally tragic, and the besieging side suffered the most casualties, and even could fight a ten-to-one record with the defenders.

"The enemy army is three hundred paces from the city! Get ready to shoot your arrows! ”

"Two hundred and fifty steps!"

"Two hundred steps!"

Everyone held their breath, and the atmosphere was extremely oppressive. Everyone didn't dare to breathe, this time the defense of the city was more difficult than ever. The enemy has 120,000 people, and their own side only has 8,000 people, a difference of 15 times the number of people, compared to the previous 80,000 to 200,000, this time it is more severe and more dangerous, and they don't know if they can hold this wave of attacks.

"One hundred and fifty steps!"

Getting closer.

"One hundred steps! Shoot the arrows! ”

"Whoosh~Whoosh~Whoosh~" A rain of arrows shot out, followed by the second and third wavesΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· One by one, the Yellow Turbans fell, and they got closer and closer to the city walls.

"Samuki! Rolling stone! Put! Can't let them come up! ”

Trees and rolling stones blocked wave after wave of attacks, blood stained the moat, corpses piled up under the walls, brains, blood, and unknown liquids mixed together, making people feel sick and frightened, and the fierce battle continued.

The Yellow Turbans marched on the corpses, one after the other, and when the first man reached the top of the city, before he had yet crossed the female wall, he was greeted by spears that pierced his chest and took down the wall. More and more people climbed the city wall, and the archers could only put down their bows and crossbows, pick up spears and swords and try their best to kill the Yellow Turban army that climbed to the top of the city.

"Resist! Reinforcements will be coming soon, so I'll be able to make up for it. They can no longer be allowed to go to the city. ”

"Ahh Push it down! A soldier shouted as he pushed the ladder.

"Come on! Kill all these dogs, hold on! ”

"Brothers, I'll go first." One person stood on the women's wall, grabbed two Yellow Turban soldiers, picked off the city wall, used himself as a rolling stone simmer, and smashed more than ten Yellow Turban soldiers on a cloud ladder off the city wall. Many soldiers followed suit. However, the effect is still too small, after all, there are still too many enemies.

Is the city about to break? Is it really over?

The sound of boom and thunder came, and everyone followed the sound, only to see a cavalry galloping in the distance.

Reinforcements! This was the first thought of the defenders.
