Water Margin: Lu Bu sits on Mount Liang

Chapter 526 Seizing the City
Night shrouded the top of the city, and a cold wind blew through the night. The rain from the previous two days had not disappeared on the walkway of the city wall. Ice crystals had formed at this time, and if you accidentally stepped on them in the dark night, you could knock someone off your feet.

The bonfire burned vigorously. The defenders standing at the top of the city leaned in front of the bonfire and let the flames roast one side of their bodies. From time to time, they exchanged positions with their companions for better warmth. During the day, the prefect transferred most of his colleagues, and those left behind had to shoulder more responsibilities in defending the city. For these soldiers, it didn't matter what the officials above thought. What mattered was that the night was difficult. Especially winter nights are even more sad.

The wind whimpered, and several men warming themselves by the fire shrank their necks. The swaying firelight illuminated the area. Someone took a step forward. There seemed to be a few large firelights swaying forward in the darkness. Some figures could be vaguely seen. Walk.

"There is a situation..."

After saying something softly, several soldiers looked at each other, and then someone sighed, lowered his head and ran out of the campfire, shuddering and calling the general on duty.

Below, the figure with a torch was getting closer and closer. The broken military flag, the dejected soldiers, the embarrassed figure and the familiar clothes made several people in the city gulp, and there was a vague feeling of bad premonition.

Soon, the guard who hurriedly put on his furs ran to the top of the city. With his head in his mink hat, he looked down. The figures below the city were clearly visible. People with missing arms and legs were carried on stretchers, and a few were slightly injured. The soldiers were supported by their companions, and there were people on horses scattered and without formation, sandwiched among a group of infantry. There were not many guns in the hands of these people. There were dark blood stains on the bodies of the people who were still intact, and the firelight illuminated them. Below, it looks almost black.

After a while, the guard gritted his teeth and said, "Where is General Dalib?"

The wounded soldier who was being supported below raised his head, his pale face looked strange under the firelight: "We were ambushed halfway by the bandits. General Dalib and the infantry commander Yebuda died fighting hard. We were defeated by the bandits." , I had to escape first."

The people on the city wall took a breath of air-conditioning, and a few soldiers warming themselves by the fire also knew that the situation was serious. They quietly left the front of the bonfire, approached the city wall and looked down, with sad looks in their eyes.

The guard looked down with a gloomy face, holding the cold wall with his hands: "Do you have an identity token?"

The wounded soldier opened his mouth. The person holding him seemed to be afraid that he would slip down, so he pushed hard and propped him up. Then he reached into his arms and took out the wooden sign: "Here is the token."

The wooden basket at the top of the city was lowered, and many wounded soldiers stepped forward to take out the wooden signs and put them into it. After collecting them, the guard looked through several signs with dark blood stains, and then there was a look of despair in his eyes. As for the soldiers in the city, when the other side solves Jian'an City, they will definitely attack Yanyuan. By then...

The guard general trembled and waved his hand: "Let them enter the city, I will go find the prefect."

Then he hurried down and ran down. The soldiers on duty did not dare to neglect after hearing the order and hurriedly ran down the stone stairs. With the combined efforts of several people, the heavy door opened with the creaking door axis.

Outside, Wang Jun, who had been supporting the wounded soldier, lowered his head, grinned crookedly, took a deep breath, supported the person next to him and walked inside.

Behind him, Shi Wengong was riding on a horse, wearing leather armor pulled from a dead man, holding a temporary spear, his head lowered, his eyes gradually became sharp as the horse stepped forward.

As the footsteps echoed in the city gate, the sound of the blade passing through flesh also sounded.

It was night, and the shouts of killing in Yanyuan City continued until dawn. The moment the sun rose, the flag with the name Liao was cut off and put down.

……

The sky gradually grew brighter, and the cold wind drove the clouds and mist forward.

The sound of war drums woke up the people at the top of the city. The guards of Jian'an City hurriedly put on their armor and walked out of the tower. Not far away, the soldiers guarding the city nervously held their weapons.

The guard held the dark figure approaching from the field outside the city and took a long breath: "The thieves are attacking the city! Prepare to fight!"

Tread-tap-

Withered grass clumps squeezed under their feet, and footsteps and wheels rolled over the earth. In this winter, the hearts of the soldiers who followed Lu Bu northward were burning. The battle related to the situation in Liaodong was unfolding on the south side of the Liaohe River, and was in a whirlpool. The army in the middle was walking past calmly, and the black armor was like a dark cloud destroying the city, pressing down heavily on it.

The scouts searched around the city, and at certain intervals, no matter whether they found anything or not, they would definitely send back information. They peered above the city from a distance. Before the sun reached three poles, a figure with a shield and a gun pushed away while pushing a ladder. It stopped, and where the strong wind rose, the flags were flapping.

"Prepare the cyclone cannon and shoot at the flag at the top of the city." On the red rabbit, Lu Bu, wearing a black cloak, looked at the city in the distance. He raised his whip and pointed forward: "Let the infantry prepare. After three rounds of shooting, immediately Attack, the opponent's assistance has been lost, we must attack this city today!" Dong, Dong Dong——

woo-

The sound of war drums and horns resounded across the sky and the earth. Amidst the shocking sound, the people on the top of the city watched in fear as the huge lever was pulled down, and then a huge black shadow was thrown over, with a loud bang and a fierce sound. Smashed hard on the outside of the city wall.

"Damn it..." the guard murmured, and immediately shouted to the side: "Quickly inform the soldiers on the other city walls that the thieves have trebuchets. Come quickly to support."

Turning around and shouting at the soldiers in front: "Be careful of stone throws, the other side is calibrating!"

Before he finished speaking, two stone bullets flew into the air and crashed down with a whistling sound. Under the shadow, the soldiers hurriedly ran to both sides. The roaring sound resounded on the city wall, and the bounced stone bullets carried The dust and smoke jumped up and hit the wooden beam where the golden bell hung. After the bell rang, there was a crashing sound. It was obvious that the flying stones hit some residence.

"Be careful to avoid——"

Amid the reminder, the guard looked down at the lowered arm with a look of dismay.

……

When the stone bullet hit the city wall, tremors spread into the city. Niu Wenzhong, who was sitting in the house with his eyes closed and resting, suddenly opened his eyes: "It's our turn!"

The tall and thin figure stood up and looked at the men of different heights, fatness and thickness in the room: "The sword has no eyes on the battlefield..." He glanced at the fat man's figure and paused slightly: "But we all have to live!"

"Brother Niu, don't worry." Shi Xun patted his protruding belly: "Although I have lived a peaceful life for several years, I have never put down my efforts."

Zhang Xiang mentioned Hengdao: "Brothers are no cowards, how can such a grand event be without us!"

"it is good!"

Niu Wenzhong was not a pretentious person. After hearing this, he picked up his weapon, walked to the door and opened it. Outside, a man wearing leather armor and holding a sharp weapon had been waiting for a long time. Hearing the sound, they all turned their eyes. come over.

Niu Wenzhong stood at the door, took a deep breath, and his tall and thin figure stepped across the threshold. Bloodshot eyes gushed out from the whites of his eyes. He raised the horizontal knife with a cold light and roared with all his strength.

"Today - seize the door!"

The next moment, all the men in the courtyard raised their weapons and said, "I am willing to follow you, big brother!"

The voices gathered, the blades were cold, and then the figures gathered in the alleyway. The tall and thin Iron Dragonfly took the lead, walked onto the street, and walked towards the nearest south gate.

……

outside the city.

When the cyclone cannon's projection stopped, the black figure rolled in like a sea tide. The bright sunshine pierced the raised dust, and the gun heads exuded a dazzling metallic luster. As they marched, the mountain-breaking ax was clad in black. A's figure raised his head: "Capture the city!"

"kill!"
