Abnormal Three Kingdoms

Chapter 149 Provocation
"General, what should we do?" Looking at the barbs all around, the Danyang generals beside Hou Cheng didn't dare to move, for fear that if they moved, the army formation would change, and the barbs would immediately burst out from the ground.

"You ask me, who should I ask?" Hou Cheng scolded: "If you have the ability, let that old man come down and fight alone with me!"

"Look at that, it's going to be an attack with fire. Once this happens, our army's formation may not be able to maintain!" General Danyang frowned and said: "General, if we don't destroy this city, our army may be wiped out!"

"Shut up!" Hou Cheng turned his head, glared at him fiercely, then looked at the city wall and cursed: "I wait for 3000 people to work together, why can't I break through this city wall?"

"General, it's not just the words that follow the law, but the city wall that he built with the force of the words and the law after he conquered the soil. If we just say the law and follow the law, we will naturally break it, but this city wall is real. Words are followed by power, so it will be difficult for us to break through!" General Danyang said helplessly.

Hou Cheng's complexion was a little dark, Confucianism is not scary, but those who master the power of the five elements and still practice Confucianism, this ability to build cities anywhere, is a bit of a rogue!

"First flatten these thorns, and then build a human wall to climb the city wall!" Hou Cheng said, swiping the spear in his hand, smashing a piece of thorns in front of him, and then stepped out, he didn't know what to do To deal with this kind of thing coming out of the ground, the formation kept moving forward with the iron wall, and the shape of the entire formation looked very strange.

Looking at this scene, Chen Gui frowned and waved his hands. In an instant, countless clay puppets emerged from the city wall, but they did not attack Hou Cheng and the others, but turned into rammed earth, constantly raising the height of the city wall.

Hou Cheng looked at this scene and cursed secretly, no matter what he did, the other party could see and respond to it, how could he play like this?

Just as he was thinking about it, the earth puppet over there had dropped enough fire supplies, and the fire began to scorch the earth city, making the already sweltering air even hotter.

Although the Ninth Secret of the Imperial Army can block any attack, it can't stop the temperature from rising.

wow~
A famous archer appeared around the city wall. Hou Cheng could see clearly that this time it was not a puppet but a real person, and his heart sank a little.

"General Hou Cheng, these are sharpshooters trained by my Chen family for many years. Now that you have an army to protect you, they will naturally have nothing to do, but how long can you last under this flame? As long as the army shows the slightest If there is any flaw, they will immediately shoot and kill you!" Chen Gui stood with his hands behind his back and looked at Hou Chengdao with a smile.

At the top of the city, there are soil puppets who are constantly throwing fire starters down, and the fire is getting bigger and bigger, while the archers above the head are watching, and the thorns under the feet may jump out at any time. Under such circumstances, it becomes difficult to change formations.

As the fire in Tucheng continued to intensify, the air continued to become scorching hot, and the morale of the soldiers continued to decrease as the fire continued. Correspondingly, the power of the army formation also continued to weaken.

"General Hou, if you surrender at this time, you still have a chance!" Chen Gui looked at Hou Cheng and said in a deep voice.

surrender?

The scorching air wave made Hou Cheng unable to breathe. Surrender is impossible. He shook his head, looked at the general beside him and said, "Help me, as long as we kill this person, we will still have a chance of survival!"

"General please order!" General Danyang whispered.

"You come to the main battle, use the power of the three armies to bounce me to the city, don't let the old man notice!" Hou Cheng handed the command flag to General Danyang. The power is constantly weakening, and if it drags on, they will have no chance at all!

"Take care, general!" General Danyang took over the command flag, then mobilized his army, and at the moment Hou Cheng jumped up, he pushed out with the strength of the three armies.

Hou Cheng's figure turned into an afterimage in the air, and the next moment he appeared not far from Chen Gui. He poked the spear in his hand and was about to assassinate Chen Gui, but he saw a young general slashing at Chen Gui's side. Come, the spear that Hou Cheng was sure to win was separated by the opponent's sword, and brushed along Chen Gui's shoulder.

The young general took the opportunity to get short, and then suddenly bumped his shoulder between Hou Cheng's chest and abdomen, his eyes looked at the direction in which Hou Cheng flew backwards with a bit of revenge.

Hou Cheng remembered, isn't this the young general who was defeated by his men yesterday?He is still alive!

"Fire the arrows!" Chen Gui was shocked for a while, and immediately waved the command flag, taking advantage of Hou Cheng's fall and smashing his own army formation, all the nobles at the top of the city fired their arrows.

Under the scorching of the fire, the army formation was already on the verge of being broken as the fighting spirit of the soldiers declined. At this moment, seeing the general's failure in one blow, it was finally difficult to maintain it, dissipated invisible, and countless arrow clusters fell. He rushed forward to make the last desperate effort, but once Hou Cheng was defeated, the outcome of this battle was already doomed.

The sharp arrows on the earthen wall never stopped for a moment, and the earthen puppets kept throwing flammable objects into the city, and Chen Gui's ground thorns. Three thousand soldiers, including Hou Cheng, were finally burned by the fire amidst the unwilling roars. devour.

"Thank you, little general!" Chen Gui finally breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the three thousand soldiers and horses finally fall into the sea of ​​flames, and said to Lu Meng, who was beside him to help him block Hou Cheng's final blow.

"The last general Lu Meng!" Lu Meng raised his neck and looked at Chen Gui. He hated being called a little general.

"Let's go down to the city!" Chen Gui smiled, he was exhausted.

His own soldiers helped him to go down the city, and there were hundreds of Confucian scholars waiting here, all of them were those big families who were driven back from Xuzhou.

"Everyone, the victory in this battle depends on your help." Chen Gui smiled at the crowd, if it weren't for the help of hundreds of Confucianists, the temporary city wall would not be a real city wall after all, and might not be able to stop Hou Cheng's breakthrough.

"Han Yu's public words are serious!" Several Confucians laughed and said: "When Hou Cheng insulted us, he was merciless. I don't want to have today!"

"It's a pity that Lu Bu is not here. If he can be burned to death, then the hatred in his heart can be relieved!"

Chen Gui responded with a smile and told these Confucian scholars to go to rest, while he greeted Sun Ce and Zhou Yu who came over.

The earth wall that lost the blessing of the Confucianists began to collapse in the flames, but it was still a solid body and did not completely collapse.

"The vanguard of the bandit army is gone, but the Tucheng seems to be powerless today. If we deal with Lu Bu in the future, might this Tucheng trap Lu Bu?" Zhou Yu frowned.

Chen Gui's father and son are both earth-type supernatural powers. Chen Deng did not make a move today, but judging from Chen Gui's move, this ability can trap a Hou Cheng with the words and spells. If it is against Lu Bu in the future, this thing will really be useful. ?

"Of course not, but my sons Yuan Long and Yuan You are already building the city at the place that Gong Jin decided on." Chen Gui laughed.

"Building a city?" Zhou Yu asked.

"If there is a strong city, the old man can put it on the ground in advance, like this!" Chen Gui waved his hand, but saw that the ground around the earth wall seemed to turn into water, and the earth wall sank slowly like this.

"Get up!" After the earth wall completely disappeared, Chen Gui waved his hand again, and the earth wall hidden underneath rose again, but it looked more damaged than before.

"After all, this earth wall is temporarily formed by the spirit of words. If there is a real strong city hidden in the ground, which can be pulled up when it is ready to be used, and with the help of the words, we will have hundreds of Confucianists here. It's enough to trap Lu Bu!" Chen Gui didn't have the confidence to kill Lu Bu, but he still had confidence in trapping Lu Bu, after all, there are hundreds of Confucianists here who can express their words, no matter how powerful Chen Gong is. It is also impossible to fight against a hundred Confucian scholars with one person's strength, right?
Sun Ce looked at the dilapidated earthen wall, nodded and said, "That's right, I hope that Fortified City is better than this."

After finishing speaking, she turned around and left. Zhou Yu looked at Chen Gui, who looked a little embarrassed, and said, "My lord is a general, and I don't like killing people like this."

Chen Gui nodded silently. General, he prefers to be upright. This General Sun also has a similar personality, which makes Chen Gui somewhat unhappy. It's just that he is old and rich, and his emotions are invisible, so it doesn't make him feel uncomfortable. Showing anger, he just nodded and said: "The old man knows that if there is nothing important, the old man will go back to rest. Most of the arrogance has dissipated today, and I will fight Lu Bu next. I am afraid that it will be difficult for the old man to make a move."

"Mr. Han Yu goes on his own." Zhou Yu nodded and said, "As for Lu Bu, don't worry about Mr. Han Yu."

Chen Gui didn't say any more, and left with a group of Confucian scholars.

"Captain, what should Hou Cheng do?" Jiang Qin came to Zhou Yu's side and looked at the corpses behind the earthen wall, which had been engulfed by the fire at this moment.

"After the fire stops, let's bury it on the spot." Zhou Yu didn't go to look again: "No matter what, Hou Cheng is a loyal and fierce general, so leave a tombstone so that Lu Bu can find it easier. As for how to arrange it, it's up to Lu Bu. "

"Here!" Jiang Qin nodded.

"The Pioneer is gone. After cleaning up, immediately go around to help clear the waterways, so as not to let the bandits take advantage of it!" Zhou Yu said as he walked back. Once the Pioneer is dead, the next thing to face is Lu Bu's main force. .

"Here!" Jiang Qin agreed.

It's a pity that Hou Cheng's subordinates are mainly infantry. If they were all cavalry, the loss to Lu Bu in this battle would be even greater!

Thinking about this, Zhou Yu shook his head and walked back with a sigh.

"Ziming, remember to set up a stele." After Zhou Yu left, Jiang Qin looked at Lu Meng, gave some instructions, then turned and left.

Lu Meng: "..."

Just stand up now, it's not a big deal who says you have the least qualifications.

Lu Meng kicked down the earthen wall with one foot, and after artificially extinguishing the flames, Cao Cao buried everyone with the earthen wall like this. After thinking about it, he found a wooden sign and wrote a few words, saying that the people of Bingzhou fought fiercely. But that's all!

After finishing all this, Lu Meng led his men to retreat. After a long time, until it was dark, a group of people appeared from the darkness. This small group of people came to the side of the mound silently, looking at the slanting A wooden sign stuck in the mound.

There are a few large characters clearly written on the wooden sign: Bingzhou wolf rider, brave but not resourceful, died at the hands of Ziming today, it is God's will!
After a long time, the leader pulled out the wooden sign and said angrily, "Jiangdong rats, you are too deceitful!"
