Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1378

"Gongjin!" Sun Ce growled.

The frontal attack on the city was too slow, and it would take too long to break into the city. This was undoubtedly the reason for his impatience.

After all, once he starts to attack the city.

The inner city must be in jeopardy.

If he can't break through faster, the entire inner city will collapse, and he will be the one who will be passive.

"Stone City still can't get through!"

Zhou Yu said in a low voice: "Most of the warships of the navy under my command are still floating on the Yangtze River estuary. The waterway is open, but only a little bit. So far, Stone City is still nailed to death by them. Although we have Some warships rushed in, but the Qinhuai River is too narrow to provide a battlefield for large-scale water battles. Their warships stand first and have enough advantages. Whether we are attacking or defending, we are all passive!"

"I don't want to hear the reason!"

Sun Ce waved his hand, and there was a flash of ferocity in his expression: "I just want results, can I break through to the foot of the inner city!"

"cannot!"

Zhou Yu said it very calmly: "The navy used to be our advantage in Jiangdong, but now it is a disadvantage. As far as warships are concerned, if we attack by force, even if we use up all the warships, we will not be able to kill them at the foot of the inner city." !"

"hateful!"

Sun Ce punched hard, and the blood-colored light appeared in his pupils, and the uneasiness in his heart grew more and more.

"Don't worry about Bofu!"

Wu Jing is a calm general. He said in a low voice: "The Tigers' army has already withdrawn. As long as the king sticks to it and fights to the death in the inner city, it can last for a few hours. Even if the worst result is that the inner city is breached Yes, Your Majesty still has a chance to hide there, when we built the palace, we left some secret passages to the north, and there are still a lot of cover in the north!"

"I hope so!"

Sun Ce smiled wryly, but he knew his father very well, and his father was such a proud person, it was impossible for him to run away in such a haste: "I'm afraid that the father is too competitive!"

Pride is one of Sun Jian's disadvantages. It's not that pride is bad, but it also depends on the scene. In the court, it represented his self-confidence, but now it's above defeat, which is tantamount to courting death.

"Continue to attack, tell the sons and daughters, if you can break through the city, you will be the first to win, and you will be promoted to three levels in a row, and you will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold!"

Sun Ce said harshly.

Boom boom boom! ! ! ! !

His voice, accompanied by the roar of gold and iron horses from the top and bottom of the city wall, made the fight more and more intense...

After half an hour.

"Report to the eldest prince, the second prince has led the main force, crossed Zhongshan, and attacked Jianye City from the east!"

"It came just right!"

Hearing the scout's report, Sun Ce's eyes lit up. No matter what Sun Quan had in mind, it was a good thing that he was able to lead the army under Jianye City at this time, which meant that the encirclement of the army had completed the final gap.

In this battle, he will have to pay the price for the Ming army.

He thought for a while, waved to the guards around him, and yelled in a low voice: "Send someone to tell the second child that our army stormed Nancheng and covered him to break through Jianye. Inside, enter the inner city!"

"Yes!"

A soldier quickly ran to deliver the order.

"I can't wait!" Sun Quan's army arrived in Jianye City, which made Sun Ce a little restless. Gains and losses in the inner city were his biggest worries. Under the heavy worries, he couldn't sit still on the commanding platform.

He wants to fight in person and take the lead. On the one hand, he can boost morale, on the other hand, he must use his invincible bravery to frighten the courage of the enemy army, thereby weakening the enemy's fighting spirit.

This is the greatest force of a fierce general on the battlefield.

"kill!"

Sun Ce appeared on the battlefield, with a crotch on his hips, an Overlord Spear in his hand, and a snow-white battle armor. He went straight to the bottom of the city wall. Even if the arrows rained down, they couldn't stop his ferocity.

"kill!"

"kill!"

Seeing this figure rushing to the vanguard, as fierce as a lion and a tiger, the soldiers of the Wu army suddenly boiled up, and their fighting spirit suddenly increased by several percent.

The fiercer the fighting spirit, the stronger the fighting power, which is directly proportional.

This suddenly put a heavy pressure on the steadfast Ming army on the top of the city.

"Sun Bofu!"

The main general Gan Ning is sitting on the top of the city at this moment. If he wants to cover the main force to withdraw from the city, he has to cut the rear himself. If they can't stop Sun Bofu, they can't withdraw from Jianye City.

And he's also a little nervous.

Uncle Sun is the most powerful young general in the world. He has grown up step by step. From the little overlord in Jiangdong to the invincible general of Wu who is now fighting all over the world, he has a great reputation.

As the so-called fierce generals meet fierce generals, there is somewhat of a fighting spirit.

Gan Ning is also a member of the generals, and he is also a fierce general who condenses the power of Yuan Gang and his martial arts has reached the realm of transformation. He also longs for opponents and pressure to hone and perfect his martial arts.

"General Zhonglang, Dongcheng is going to be unstoppable!" Jing Wusi stepped up to the top of the city with a small flag, and reported with his hands clasped.

The news in the city is delivered by Jing Wusi. They are fast, and Jianye Town is familiar with the streets and alleys of Jianye. It is best for them to deliver the news.

This can also save the scouting force of the Ming army and ensure that every combat power can be fully condensed.

"Order them to retreat!"

Gan Ning was not surprised. It was already a good thing that the east city could be defended. At this time, the main battlefield was above the gate of the south city, and it was the Sun Bofu under the city. As for the east city, if you lose it, you will lose it.

Originally, the strategic deployment of the Ming army was to withdraw from the movement to the west. Now, as long as the main battalion in the east city can preserve its strength, it is enough to withdraw troops to the east and keep up with the rhythm.

"Kill in!"

"Boys, go!"

"Up the ladder!"

"At any cost, kill me on the city wall!"

The shouts of killing under the city were getting closer and closer, which put more and more pressure on Gan Ning. Even if he had the main force of three battalions staying here, he would always be a weak point in terms of strength.

And he is a navy soldier, and it's not impossible for a navy soldier to defend the city. As the saying goes, it's good to return all methods to the clan, and war is a scene, that is, endless fighting.

But after all, the sailors lack some experience in defending the city. If it's just a small fight, it's fine, but once the pressure is too high, various mistakes will appear.

This is unavoidable.

So the South City Gate can't be defended anymore, and it will be breached sooner or later, it's just a matter of sooner or later.

Now Zhuge Liang is still preparing for a full withdrawal, and it will definitely take time. As long as he can hold back here for another quarter of an hour, they will have an extra quarter of an hour of bargaining chips in their hope of withdrawing from Jianye with all their strength.

"Let go of the first line of defense below the city, put the best defensive formation on the city wall, and let them build ladders, but no matter who they are, they are not allowed to break through the defense line of the city wall, come up and kill one by one, and the archers obey orders , Hide your figure well to prevent being sniped by enemy archers, and at the same time shorten the range of shooting, wait until they enter the best line of sight, and then shoot and kill, our army's reserves are insufficient, we must save!"

Gan Ning walked back and forth on the city wall, not only personally supervising the defense, but also applying the tactics to each battalion, and he played the grinding formula to the extreme.

As long as Wu Jun's fighting spirit can be worn away, he will have a chance to survive until dark. As long as he survives until dark, the hope of them being able to withdraw from Jianye will increase by more than [-]%.

No matter what, the two armies, tens of thousands of elite sailors, must not be damaged here. The Ming Kingdom cannot bear such a loss.

"It was shot down again!"

Sun Ce became more and more furious. There was a bloodstain on his cheek, which was a wound caused by a loss. He took the lead and climbed the ladder himself, charged into battle, but was abruptly killed by the enemy's archers. The face was also shot.

But this did not make him calm down, but made him even more furious. As time passed bit by bit, he was very, very worried about what was going on in the city.

His father's safety was like a knife stuck in the middle of his heart. If he could not be sure of his father's safety for a day, he would never be at peace.

"Keep attacking!"

At this time, Sun Ce was absolutely crazy, becoming more and more fierce and manic.

"Prince, prince!"

A figure came from nowhere, rolled and crawled, and appeared beside Sun Ce, with a mournful face, and tremblingly reported: "The king is dead!"

"what?"

When Sun Ce heard this, his pupils trembled and his whole body throbbed. As soon as someone picked it up, he asked fiercely, "What are you talking about? If you dare to disturb our army's morale, I will kill you!"

"it is true!"

This man had forcibly escaped from the water channel in the city, his whole body was smelly, and he said with a bitter face, "Your Majesty and the city wall have peace talks with the Ming bandits, and suddenly he tore up the covenant of peace talks in anger, and stabbed the enemy with his sword." Commander, unfortunately he failed to kill him. After that, the king and the two armies killed himself in front of him. He said that he did not want to be humiliated by the state of Wu. , Then, commit suicide before everyone!"

"Impossible, impossible!!!"

Sun Ce yelled, and his voice became more and more shrill.

his father.

The man he regarded as the strongest since he was a child is the role model he has been chasing all his life, the object he respects and looks up to the most.

He couldn't just die like this.

Back then, he was able to break out of the siege of Xiling in Jingzhou, so how could he kill himself in his Jianye capital?

However, reason told him that what the person in front of him said was true, no one in Jiangdong would dare to fake or mess around with this kind of thing.

"Bofu!"

Zhou Yu, who was always making plans beside him, was also a little confused at this moment. He looked at Sun Ce with red eyes.

"Brother, how can you do this!"

Wu Jing was also shouting.

In his eyes, Sun Jian was a powerful and invincible man. How could such a man be forced to commit suicide in the capital of Jianye? This is simply impossible.

"Eldest Prince, General Huang Gai ordered me to go out of the city to report the news at any cost. I tell you, they can't run away. They haven't attacked the inner city now, so they must want to run away!"

The messenger was the best scout in the Tiger Army, he cupped his hands and said in a low voice.

"attack!"

Sun Ce suddenly became extremely calm from madness, but his calmness made everyone around him feel a mad killing intent: "Pass my military order, everyone will attack Jianye City at any cost!"

He raised his head, his eyes were blood red, like a beast out of the cage, about to tear apart the enemy army in front of him, the murderous intent was so ferocious that people could not suppress the fear just by listening to the voice.

At this moment, he no longer has any worries.

Today is bound to be the time for massacres.

"General Zhonglang, the attack outside the city suddenly became more ferocious. They seem to have changed their style of play. They used the same style of tactics. They broke through desperately. The casualties of our army are getting bigger and bigger, and they can't stop it!"

Several captains hurried over to discuss with Gan Ning.

"Looks like I can't hide the news anymore!" Gan Ning sighed. The sudden attack outside the city obviously means that the news in the city has been leaked out. Only the death of Sun Jian can make Wu Jun no longer have any fear and become ferocious up.

"Tell my sons, even if you die in this city, you must complete our mission, and you must stick to it for at least half an hour!"

Gan Ning hadn't received Zhuge Liang's summons yet. He knew that Zhuge Liang still needed time to withdraw the whole army. It was a huge strategic deployment and there must be enough time for preparation.

"promise!"

The generals had no choice but to stick to it.

This battle became more and more tragic. The whole south city wall went up and down like a huge meat grinder. Every second, life seemed to be withering.

The Ming army held on tenaciously for half an hour, but at least they paid the lives of thousands of sons, and the Wu army under the city was even worse, at least losing more than three thousand sons of damage.

But even so, it still did not detract from Wu Jun's fighting spirit to attack.

They seem to be like machines, without the slightest feeling of fatigue, charging forward one after another, fighting desperately, as if they will not give up until they break through the city wall.

It's not because Wu Jun is not afraid of death, but because Wu Jun is driven crazy by one person at this moment.

Sun Ce personally attacked the city three times, and the attack mode that looked like a crazy tiger made all the soldiers feel the blood-boiling breath, which aroused the desperate blood.

Whoosh!

Gan Ning on the top of the wall was panting continuously at this moment, his hand holding the weapon was trembling.

just now.

He collided with Sun Ce once.

Standing on the ladder, Sun Ce was not under any pressure. He was condescending and should have had the upper hand, but he was backlashed by Sun Ce's desperate fighting style.

Although Sun Ce was repelled, Sun Ce was forced down abruptly.

But he was almost pierced in the chest by Sun Ce's shot. Fortunately, he instinctively avoided this move. Sun Ce's marksmanship was so ferocious, and that kind of aggressive and domineering feeling, he had never seen it before.

"call out!"

Suddenly, the sound of whistles and arrows sounded in the city.

"It's Zhuge's signal!"

Gan Ning's eyes lit up, he knew that Zhuge Liang was telling him that everything was ready and he could withdraw.

He gritted his teeth: "After the Seventh Battalion stays with me, all the rest of you should withdraw immediately, and get on the car to Stone Mountain at the fastest speed!"

"promise!"

The generals took the lead.

The Ming army was as swift as thunder, and it was like ebbing tide, and the tide receded quickly.
