Three Kingdoms: Prosper Han from the beginning of brushing favorability

Chapter 345 The unknown soldier Niu Dazhuang

In addition to the necessary defenders of the other three city gates, Man Chong mobilized all remaining forces to attack the west gate, striving to put out the rebellion in the shortest possible time.

He even offered a big price to lure the rebels and the Jingzhou Army who planned everything to surrender.

Just because he saw the posture of the rebels guarding the city gate in front of him, he knew that the other party must have contacted the main force of the Jingzhou Army outside the city.

If we can't recapture the city gate as soon as possible and let Guan Yu into the city... Xiangfan will not be saved.

Man Chong did not think that after the fall of Xiangyang, Cao Ren could defend the Jingzhou Army's offensive on the other side.

When the two men vowed to go south, they had superior strength and were defeated by Guan Yu's land and water mobile tactics, leaving the remaining soldiers holding Fancheng defeated, let alone now.

"kill!"

Following Man Chong's order, the first batch of five hundred elites assembled directly launched the attack.

Waiting for subsequent reinforcements to gather can indeed reduce casualties, but right now, time is more precious.

These 500 people were Man Chong's last remaining assets apart from the death-defying cavalry.

The Wei army, which was not lacking in training and equipment, immediately used long bows and powerful crossbows to fire random arrows at the less than [-] rebels gathered at the west gate.

Under the hail of arrows, the rebels immediately hid behind bunkers such as roadblocks, or crouched down and held up their shields to defend.

"Fight back, fight back for me!"

The city gate leader squatting at Niu Dazhuang's feet was fighting, but he was still shouting hysterically towards the city head... At least he couldn't lose in terms of momentum.

Unexpectedly, the Wei army attacked so decisively, but the rebels at the city head who were half a beat late also immediately fired back at the Wei army.

When the two armies faced each other, shooting at each other didn't happen often.

Most of the time, it's like a turn-based game. You shoot one round first, and I use your firepower gap to shoot another round.

After all, you only have one life in a real war, and it is really not a wise move to brave the rain of arrows.

But at this time, the rebels took advantage of the terrain. The crossbowmen standing at the top of the city were relatively safe and commanding. Although they were half a beat slower and had a numerical disadvantage, the Wei army, which had to take care of defense, was gradually overwhelmed.

On the contrary, the rebels under the city concentrated on avoiding arrows and did not suffer many casualties.

Upon seeing this, Man Chong immediately ordered the Wei army to charge.

With the exception of Liu Chan's Red Star Army, almost all troops have supervisory teams. Perhaps some do not have specially set up teams, but that is just because generals at all levels and their soldiers have assumed this task.

For example, Man Chong, who is now retreating to the rear, and his one hundred personal guards.

If you rush forward, if you can defeat the enemy, you may still have a chance to survive, but if you retreat, you will definitely die.

The soldiers of the Wei army, who also had a lot of combat experience, naturally understood this truth.

What's more, the people standing in front of them were the city gate guards that these elites wanted to look down on.

"kill--!"

The Wei army rushed forward like wolves and tigers, beating and destroying the burning roadblocks with their spears.

But facing this best opportunity to attack, the rebels suddenly shrank.

It’s not just their opponents who look down on them, but they themselves are not the same as well...

"Tsk! What a fucking idiot." Niu Dazhuang's calm expression changed for the first time. He frowned and cursed in a low voice, then strode forward.

He was born in the Red Star Army and had personally participated in large and small wars with Prince Liu Chan. He really couldn't bear to stand the novices pecking at each other in front of him.

With the way these people are now, once the burning roadblocks are cleared, they are probably not far from being defeated.

Seeing Niu Dazhuang rushing towards him, the three spears of the Wei army covering him immediately stabbed him.

But I saw his waist sinking, his strength rising from the ground, channeling it to his arms, and skillfully hitting and sending it away!
"Kill!!" A roar like a wild beast came from his mouth, and the spear in his hand knocked down three of the opponent's spears like a python, and then pierced the head of one of the opponent's Wei soldiers with one spear.

There was a splash of blood, and Niu Dazhuang, who looked slightly ferocious under the firelight, kept pulling his spear back one step at a time, and stepped back, allowing other Wei soldiers who wanted to pursue to pierce the air with their spears.

Niu Dazhuang grinned. The tricks taught by the prince back then were still very handy to him now.

In a flash of confrontation, the so-called Xiangyang elite under Man Chong were completely crushed!
The cowering rebels behind the roadblock stared at this strange, stupid man with wide eyes.

"Who is this guy? Why don't I remember there is such a fierce man in the army?"

Man Chong was even more shocked and asked: "Who is this? Could it be the Jingzhou Military General?"

He recognized Guan Yu and Guan Ping, the main generals of the Jingzhou Army. After fighting for so long, he knew each other too well, but he couldn't recognize who he was in front of him.

"Hold the city gate! Just wait until the army arrives, and all the kings will remember it as a great achievement!" Niu Dazhuang's sonorous voice sounded, "If you don't fight now, you will die!"

The rebels were shocked by his roar, and immediately cheered up and fought hard.

Of course, the words were only part of the story. The most important thing was the hand he showed, which greatly boosted the morale of the rebels.

The line miraculously stabilized, but the burning roadblocks prevented the Wei army from fully utilizing their numerical advantage to surround the rebels.

After Niu Dazhuang joined, the battle became tense again.In less than half an hour of fighting, both sides suffered casualties. Niu Dazhuang had killed more than ten enemies by himself.

"Huh...huh..." The fierce fighting, often with one enemy against many, made his originally steady breath gradually become thicker.

But in the eyes of the Wei army in front, he was already very terrifying. The enemy soldiers facing him in the front would have wanted to run away if Man Chong and his bodyguards weren't watching from behind...

However, the Xicheng guards around him fell one after another, but the enemy in front of them was still receiving reinforcements in a steady stream.

Although morale is still available, the situation is gradually developing in an unfavorable direction.

His left eye gradually turned red. He wiped the blood from the scratch on his forehead and stepped forward with the spear again.

Blood loss and physical exertion caused Niu Dazhuang's strength and speed to decline somewhat. After stabbing one person to death accurately this time, his retreat speed was slower.

A spear was about to hit his shoulder, but another spear suddenly stretched out from beside him.

"Ah——!" Accompanied by a hysterical roar, the enemy soldier was stabbed to death on the spot with a pop of spear.

Niu Dazhuang, who narrowly avoided the blow, glanced to the side in surprise, but what he saw was the face of the city gate chief mixed with fear and excitement.

"Thank you." Niu Dazhuang smiled at him, much more sincerely than before.

"If you are lucky enough to survive." The city gate chief, who has never been so brave in his life, his teeth were trembling a little when he spoke, "Can you tell me about you?"

He is now full of admiration and curiosity for this brave Shu army... Han army spy.

"Oh, that's a long story." Niu Dazhuang stepped forward again, but the second half of the sentence drifted over, "If you have a chance, you have to talk while drinking."

The city gate chief, who thought Niu Dazhuang looked down on him and did not want to have a close relationship with him, heard the second half of the sentence, immediately grinned, and rushed forward too...

But the next moment, his smile was fixed on his face.

An arrow shot through his not-so-fine armor and pierced his chest.

The lung was punctured, and the pressure change caused by the hemopneumothorax immediately caused the lung lobes to shrink, making the usual inhalation action so difficult at this time.

Opposite his sight was Man Chong who was riding on a horse and taking out the second arrow.

"It seems...I still don't have that fate."

The city gate chief, who was gradually losing his strength, felt a little regretful. His consciousness began to drift due to lack of oxygen, but he could no longer tell whether he regretted not being able to live a successful career or not being able to make this friend...

As time went by, the rebels began to show signs of defeat.

The Wei army, which kept converging with troops in the city, finally cleared the roadblocks and began to press forward.

There are fewer and fewer rebels around Niu Dazhuang, but there are more and more injuries on his body. The spear he had broken before was broken by him, but now the spear in his hand was picked up from a corpse.

"General Guan, hurry up, we are about to capture Xiangyang, hurry up!"

"kill--!"

Facing the enemy forces that were constantly compressing their space, Niu Dazhuang was red-eyed and led the remaining rebels to launch another wave of good counterattacks.

Inspired by his bravery and fearlessness, the rebels displayed a fighting power far beyond their usual level.

But this is almost the last struggle...

puff!
"Uh...!" Niu Dazhuang was stabbed in the right chest by a spear, and the blood began to drain along with the last of his physical strength.

puff puff!

Several more spears pierced his left and right thighs, but he abandoned his own spear and hugged the opponent's spear shaft tightly.

Not far behind him was the city gate. The veins on his forehead were stretched, and he refused to take a step back regardless of the blood flowing.

"..."

Niu Dazhuang, who was stabbed in the right chest and began to have difficulty breathing, could no longer roar as loudly as before, but he was still vaguely mumbling something.

"If the red star... does not fall, this heart will not regret it. If the Han Dynasty is not prosperous, this body... will not retreat..."

Facing Niu Dazhuang, who had lost his fighting power, the Wei army on the opposite side looked horrified, and unexpectedly let go of the spear in his hand, and slowly took a few steps back.

puff.

Niu Dazhuang, who had lost his support, couldn't help but kneel on the ground. If it weren't for the support of several spears inserted in his body, he might have fallen down.

"What are you doing! Kill him!"

The rebels had been defeated, and the furious Man Chong rode his horse forward and shouted.

But he found that the dying man actually started laughing with a voice like a broken bellows!
"Haha...hehehe..." Even though this laughter could only hasten his death, Niu Dazhuang still couldn't help laughing.

Because he felt the shaking of the earth on his knees.

The vibrations became more and more obvious.
