Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

It was getting dark, and the entire Xiangyang City was surrounded by thick black fog. The surroundings were so quiet that it seemed that even the chirping of insects could not be heard.

"Ugh."

A deep and deep horn sound came from under the night, followed by a burst of footsteps slowly approaching from a distance.

The guards on the tower looked at Cao Jun who was gradually approaching, and their expressions became serious.

They felt that the atmosphere tonight was a bit strange.

Although Cao's army had not actually reached them yet, the chilling atmosphere in the air told them that Cao's army was ready to attack.

Suddenly, fire flickered in the distance, and accompanied by a roar, dense fireballs flew toward Xiangyang City.

"Enemy attack! Inform the lord quickly!"

A guard yelled, and there was chaos at the city gate, but calm soon returned.

At this time, Cao Jun outside the north gate of Xiangyang was burning the gate of Xiangyang City with kerosene.

The fire oil kept pouring and burning the city wall.

Cao Cao laughed with satisfaction when he saw this, and then shouted: "Start attacking the city!"

In an instant, Cao's army rushed into the distance like a tide.

At the same time, from the west gate of Xiangyang, Xia Houyuan led five hundred elite horses and galloped over.

Looking at the majestic city in front of him, Xia Houyuan's lips raised.

"General Xiahou is so courageous that he went to Xiangyang single-handedly. If my lord knew about it, I'm afraid he wouldn't spare you!"

An enemy general shouted on the city wall.

When Xia Houyuan heard this, he was furious and sneered: "Why do you care about a little warrior? My lord has countless fierce generals under his command. How can a mere warrior dare to be so rampant!"

As he spoke, Xia Houyuan drew his sword and pointed it at the enemy troops on the tower opposite: "My sons, follow me to kill the enemy and capture Xiangyang City for the Young Master."

"Here!"

Cao Jun agreed one after another and followed Xia Houyuan towards the distance.

If Liu Biao was really bloody, he actually arranged for thousands of elite cavalry to ambush outside the city.

Choose to fight head-on with Cao Jun!
The two sides fought fiercely, but Xia Houyuan's 500 elite men were obviously better, and it didn't take long for him to gain the upper hand.

At this moment, war drums also sounded from the southeast. It turned out that Cao Ang was coming with an army of 30,000 people.

Xia Houyuan and others were overjoyed when they saw this: "Haha, reinforcements have arrived. Let's see how long you can resist!"

Liu Jun on the city wall was also surprised and doubtful after hearing this. He looked around carefully and found traces of Cao Jun.

So he immediately shouted: "Oh no, Cao Jun's reinforcements are coming!"

This shout frightened many soldiers, and the soldiers suddenly started to commotion.

Cao Ang also heard it, and he immediately said loudly: "Brothers, follow me and charge forward to behead Liu Biao."

Cao Jun suddenly became excited when he heard this. They all raised their spears and rushed forward crazily.

At this time, Liu Biao was standing on the city wall. When he saw this scene, his face turned pale with fright. He shouted: "Set the arrow, shoot the arrow!"

The soldiers on the city wall immediately bent their bows and arrows and shot down the city.

Whoosh!
A sharp arrow pierced the void and shot hard at Cao Jun under the city wall, but because the distance was too far, the power of the bow and arrow was greatly reduced.

Unable to stop Cao Jun's charge, even the shield could not penetrate, Cao Jun continued to charge forward.

"kill!"

Cao Jun waved his weapons and continued to kill Liu Jun soldiers, blood spattered everywhere, and the entire Xiangyang City seemed to have turned into a Shura hell.

Liu Biao showed a hint of fear when he saw the fierce impact of Cao Jun. He shouted: "Quick, keep firing arrows to stop them!"

"Hey." The sound of bows and arrows sounded again from the city wall.

However, because the momentum of Cao's army was too fierce, the arrows fired by the archers could not hurt them, but many Cao's soldiers were chopped to the ground. Soon Cao Jun climbed up the city wall, and then rushed into the Liu Jun soldiers like wolves and tigers.

puff!

I saw that the spears or swords in the hands of Cao Jun's soldiers easily cut Liu Jun's throat.

Liu Jun's soldiers desperately slashed at Cao Jun with their swords.

But Cao Jun's soldiers were wearing heavy armor, and ordinary swords could not do anything to them. They could only make Cao Jun's skin slightly red.

However, the city of Xiangyang was too high, and not many of Cao's troops could successfully climb the city.

Most of the soldiers were almost blocked at the edge of the city wall, and only those who were agile and highly skilled in martial arts could climb the city wall.

The pace of Cao's army's siege was seriously hindered, but this did not hinder their attack and they continued to climb up.

Only then did they really see clearly the situation in Xiangyang City.

The city walls were filled with heavily armed Liu Jun, their armors and weapons exuding a cold light.

But Cao Jun's soldiers did not panic, but were full of fighting spirit.

A member of Cao's army shouted loudly: "My sons, these Liu troops only have more than 2,000 people. If we rush forward, we will definitely defeat them."

"Kill!" Cao Jun's soldiers burst out with deafening shouts and continued to charge forward.

But Liu Jun on the city wall was obviously not a vegetarian. Countless arrow clusters and crossbows were shot out for free, shooting Cao Jun soldiers to the ground one by one.

"Ah." Screams resounded through the sky, and corpses fell to the ground one after another.

However, Cao's army was numerically large after all. After Liu Jun fired a round of arrows, he quickly added new arrows, otherwise it would be difficult to withstand the opponent's charge.

Cao's soldiers continued to charge upward and reached the edge of the city wall again.

At this time, the general on the city wall suddenly shouted: "All archers, prepare!"

I saw the Liu Jun archers on the city wall taking off their bows and arrows and aiming at the Cao Jun below the city.

"put!"

The general on the city wall gave an order, and rows of arrows poured out, shooting directly at Cao's army below the city.

"what."

Screams came one after another, and many Cao Jun soldiers were hit by arrows and died tragically on the spot.

However, Cao Jun's soldiers still climbed up the city regardless of their lives. They knew that they would die if they retreated.

Xia Houyuan's face darkened when he saw this situation, and he cursed in his heart: "Damn it! Why are these bastards so stubborn!"

But now that the matter was over, Xia Houyuan had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to charge forward with his troops.

The archers on the city wall continued to shoot arrows, and Cao's soldiers who were close to the city wall suffered disaster.

General Liu Jun saw that the tactics were effective, so he took the opportunity to order the archers to concentrate on shooting.

Shooting the soldiers of Cao's army who were closer to the ground, the number of Cao's soldiers under the city wall suddenly decreased a lot.

Cao Ang, who was far away, showed no panic at all. He saw Liu Jun's archers on the city wall beginning to close in, so he decisively ordered the archers to stop shooting and switch to catapults.

"boom!"

The two catapults fired fireballs continuously, and the fireballs hit the city wall.

"boom!"

Liu Jun's formation was blown to pieces.

"Catapult?" Liu Biao was shocked. Although he had heard of this thing, this was the first time he encountered it today. He hurriedly asked: "How powerful is this catapult?"

The counselor on the side explained in a low voice: "To report to my lord, this catapult is a siege weapon specially developed by Cao Jun. Its power is terrifying."

As soon as the counselor finished speaking, two more fireballs roared towards him. (End of chapter)
