Abnormal Three Kingdoms

Chapter 348 Epilogue
The sky is already bright, and it is a sunny day. In the north, there are not many consecutive rains in autumn.

There are fish-scale clouds in the sky, and under the misty clouds, the monstrous battle has already begun, and the Xuzhou army's general attack on Shouzhang City has begun under the leadership of Chu Nan.

The dense rain of arrows fell like meteors on the flickering battlefield. If you look down from a high altitude, the wells, ladders, and rushing cars like war behemoths are constantly attached to the city like reptiles. After being ignited, people rushed from the ladder or well to the city wall, like ants.

Life is indeed as insignificant as ants in war.

The defense in the city became weak just as Chu Nan expected. Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong, and Gao Shun, who were in charge of attacking the city, had a deep understanding of this.

The opportunity to break the city has arrived!

They didn't know where Chu Nan made his judgment, and they didn't need Chu Nan to make any further suggestions. After they were acutely aware of this, their attacks became more ferocious.

Zhang Liao went into battle in person and came under the city wall to direct the soldiers to march. Gao Shun handed over the command to Ji Ling, and personally led the trapped camp to the top of the city. rain of arrows.

The siege battle was in full swing from the very beginning. Yu Jin tried his best to run between the cities to boost morale and order the soldiers to defend the city. Generals like Cao Chun and Le Jin have never appeared, and bad guesses have already begun to be planted in people's hearts.

No matter how Yu Jin supported the battle formation defending the city, it eventually collapsed bit by bit.

Even if there are celebrities in the city who come forward to strengthen the city wall and assist in defending the city, they can only block it for a while in the face of the surging force of the Xuzhou army. There is no chance to reverse the defeat.

"Boom~"

The battle formation was finally shattered. With the shattering of the battle formation, the roaring stone bullets smashed down the city wall, and the stone bullets containing the power of a thousand troops directly smashed a big hole in the city wall. It fell down together with the parapet.

He was unlucky, just in the position where he was hit by the stone bullet, and at the same time, he was also lucky, the shattered pieces of the parapet pierced his body directly, so he didn't have to face the despair when the city was broken.

Almost at the same time, Huang Zhong's arrow rain covered the entire city wall like a meteor shower. It was not as powerful as a stone bomb, but it was even worse. The entire city wall was smashed under the arrow rain. , may break the bones, and the immortal life will be useless.

The sound of wailing echoed on the city wall one after another.

Compared with this side, Gao Shun's side is much simpler. The trapped camp had ascended the city and occupied a large section of the city wall long before the battle formation was broken.

In the last battle of Shouzhang, he fell into the camp first and won the first victory.

Chu Nan was the last to enter the city. The defeated Cao Jun wanted to withdraw from the north gate to break through, but was stopped by Wei Yan who had been waiting here. This time, Yu Jin failed to break through. With no morale and the rout of the city, even though he had fought hard, he still failed to break out from Wei Yan's hands again, and was finally captured alive by Wei Yan in the chaos.

The melee in the city is still going on, but Wei Yan did not enter the city, but waited here, wanting to catch a few more big fish, without the leader of the Cao camp, no one can escape in front of the fully armed Wei Yan .

However, after staring at it for a day, when the sound of fighting in the city gradually disappeared, the big fish he imagined did not appear.

"Where are the others!?" This was the first sentence Zhang Liao and others said when they saw Yu Jin after they stabilized the order in the city and came out to join Wei Yan.

With Wei Yan's ability, even if he couldn't take down all the generals of Cao Jun, there shouldn't be only one Yu Jin.

Wei Yan pointed to a group of generals captured by him beside him, as well as a large number of surrendered troops. He frowned and said, "It's all here. I haven't even seen the others. Did they break through from other directions?"

Zhang Liao and the others glanced at each other and shook their heads in unison. Naturally, they also noticed this, but they didn't find anything at all.

"Is the enemy's sudden attack on the camp last night related to this matter?" Gao Shun asked suddenly.

The night attack last night was a bit inexplicable, more like suicide.

Wei Yan shook his head, how did he know this?
He hurriedly ordered people to invite Chu Nan to come over. The soldiers on the battlefield were fierce and dangerous. If he hadn't led the troops himself, Chu Nan would not have taken the initiative to join the battlefield. to the city gate.

"Looks like he escaped last night!" Chu Nan felt helpless, he should arrest someone to ask, but ordinary generals might not know about such things.

"Let's go into the city first!" Chu Nan suggested, but he couldn't think of anything here. If he really left last night, even if he knew the direction of the other party's escape now, they would not be able to catch up.

Everyone agreed and surrounded Chu Nan into the city.

With his arms broken, Chu Nan could hear women's timid cries, old people's wailing, children who were afraid of them, and men with numb faces. Sometimes Chu Nan hated his own sharp sense of consciousness.

Such a miserable scene was something he didn't want to see, but it was unavoidable in this troubled world.

Although they have tried their best to restrain the soldiers and injure the civilians, such things are inevitable when the city is broken.

With a low mood, Chu Nan and the generals came to the temporary residence of the Cao family.

"You left yesterday?" Chu Nan looked at the trembling maid and asked in as gentle a tone as possible.

"Yes." The maid was like a quail: "Yesterday morning, the son suddenly ordered someone to pack up, and left with his wife and two young masters at night, without taking anyone else."

"Go down." Chu Nan waved his hand, beckoning the maid to go down, looked at the crowd and said, "What happened last night should be for this reason."

"Will you go to Xuchang?" Zhou Cang asked.

"Shouzhang has been broken, so it is impossible to defend Xuchang." The one who answered him was Zhang Liao. What's the point?

"My lord, the last general has captured Yu Jin, how about calling him to ask him?" Wei Yan said suddenly.

Chu Nan nodded, this may be the only gain from this battle.

After a while, Yu Jin was brought up, his expression was sluggish, but it wasn't that he had suffered any crimes, it was just that the formation of this battle was broken, and the blow of the defeat made him not in good spirits.

"General Yu, in Xia Chunan, the name of General has been famous for a long time, but I just regret not seeing him." Chu Nan looked at Yu Jin and said with a smile.

"If you want to kill, then kill, why talk too much?" Yu Jin snorted coldly.

"As far as Cao Jun is concerned, the general who stayed behind has already fulfilled his loyalty. At this time, the general surrendered. It is expected that no one will say anything to the general." Chu Nan looked at Yu Jin and said with a smile: "Now the Central Plains is for me. What the army earns is precisely when it employs people, and generals like generals are exactly what our army lacks."

Yu Jin glanced at Chu Nan, and said with a sneer, "What's the matter? Do you want to threaten him with your family like Wen Qian?"

"It's natural." Chu Nan said calmly.

The ban:"……"

Suddenly I didn't know how to answer it, so I just sneered and didn't reply.

"Cao Jun left in a hurry, and there are quite a few members of the Cao family left, let alone the general who is responsible for the death of the queen?" Chu Nan thought about it: "And if Cao Jun let the general die, but took away the general's family, the general might not stick to his birthday Zhang, to fight for their chance to escape."

"So what?" Yu Jin said disdainfully, "This is where benevolence and righteousness lie."

"Benevolence?" Chu Nan smiled, looked at Yu Jin and said, "If they take it away, maybe it is really benevolence and righteousness."

"What do you mean?" Yu Jin frowned.

"If the general swears not to surrender, even if we don't embarrass the general's family, they may not be able to live well, and..." Chu Nan looked at Yu Jin and said: "You and I have fought for several months, and both sides have killed and injured each other. General guess After the death of the general, will the family members have a good life? To them, the greatest value of the general is to cut off the heir for them, and they probably guessed that the general will not surrender to the death, so..."

"Shut up!" Yu Jin yelled angrily, "Don't try to seize the belly of a gentleman with a villain's heart, we are brothers and sisters, how can they settle down with such evil intentions?"

Chu Nan looked at Yu Jin seriously, and Yu Jin's scalp felt a little numb, as if he had been seen through, and finally couldn't stand it anymore: "What do you think I am doing?"

"Are you serious about what the general said?" Chu Nan looked at him and asked with a smile.

"As long as the general believes it, but after the general dies, it is really useless to them. As for the general's family members, they have become a burden. It is better to be buried with the general in this Shouzhang City. It can also win the general's reputation forever. name." Chu Nan sighed, "I just feel sorry for the general's wife and children."

Yu Jin closed his eyes, as if he didn't want to say any more.

"Forget it, since the general doesn't want to think like that, I'll treat it as a villain for nothing, and go to rest. I can tolerate a talent like the general. If the general thinks it through and tell me, the general's wife and children don't need to worry. I will take care of it for you." Chu Nan waved his hand, signaling that he would be taken down.

"Order someone to take care of his wife and children." After Yu Jin left, Chu Nan ordered: "Remember, no one, I say anyone, must not do anything to humiliate his wife and children, and he must treat him kindly."

When he said this, a bit of power emerged, which made people's hearts sink unconsciously. Even Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and other experienced generals felt a sense of oppression.

"Ziyan don't worry." Zhang Liao and Gao Shun nodded and said, "But what about the Cao family?"

"I can't catch up, and most of them have already surrendered to Jizhou at this time. Our army is running out of time. We shouldn't focus more on them at this time. What we should do now is to clean up the remaining evils and stabilize the Central Plains!" Chu Nan shook his head. Shaking his head, he looked at the crowd and said, "Take down the rest of the city first, and then together with Cao Xing and the others, check the household registration and measure the cultivated land in various places. In the next period of time, there will be no big battles, but small battles will not stop. Leave the matter to the generals under your command, and the elite leaders will be stationed in various places, beware of large-scale rebellion, and suppress it immediately if there is a sign!"
