Reborn Sun Ce

Volume [-] Conquest of Jiangdong] Chapter [-]: The bloody battle and the capture of Xiangyang City——

The first sixty-fourth chapter of the bloody battle captures Xiangyang City

Han Dang was shocked by the urgent report of scouts: "What! It seems that Liu Biao really deserves to be the shepherd of Yizhou, but his reaction is too fast. Brother Zhou Shan! You just set a few fires, how can you To attract him to dispatch an army to destroy it?"

Zhou Shan, who was confused, also couldn't figure it out, and could only shake his head with the same wry smile.

I thought to myself: "How can I understand the thoughts of these officials? If I can figure it out, I can be a state shepherd!"

Han Dang couldn't get the answer, and didn't bother to think about it, so he ordered the scouts to go to the state pastoral mansion to inform the lord Sun Ce.

Turning back to Zhou Shan, he shouted: "Brother Zhou, I will lead the army to charge first, and you will take your people to support!"

After Zhou Shan nodded his promise, Han Dang turned his head and shouted to the trilogy behind him: "Soldiers, you are the heroic Jiangdong army! The strong enemy ahead is fighting with General Cheng and the others! Follow this general to charge, destroy them, destroy them! "

"Destroy it! Destroy it! Jiangdong Army will win!"

Five hundred knights answered in unison, and in a blink of an eye the iron hooves hit the road, making a thunderous shock.After running for less than a mile, I saw the east city gate with a loud sound of killing from a distance, and Xiangyang soldiers kept pouring in from the gate.

There were already at least [-] infantry inside the city gate, and the [-] cavalry surrounding Cheng Pu's road were densely packed and launched a mad attack.

～～～～～～～～～～～

During Cheng Pu's journey, he didn't meet any generals defending the army, only a few groups of remnant soldiers without generals, fighting endlessly with Zhou Shan's Xinghuo Camp.

Under the strong force of him and Zhang Liao, they were naturally easily wiped out.After helping Zhou Shan's subordinates out of the siege, let them go to meet Zhou Shan by themselves.

The cavalry continued to advance towards the east gate.When they arrived at the east gate, they happened to meet the Xiangyang army who had just entered the city.Both Cheng Pu and Zhang Liao knew that these infantry should not be allowed to enter the city, otherwise it would be a big trouble to occupy Xiangyang.

As soon as the two discussed it, they immediately launched a violent charge against the nearly [-] soldiers who had already entered the city.With the cooperation of throwing spears and sabers, nearly half of them were beheaded, and the Xiangyang army broke up and dispersed.

But as more enemy troops continued to enter the city, the county soldiers who had been dispersed in the city gradually gathered together.

But Cheng Pu and his cavalry, who had lost their impact, fell into a tight siege instead.The five hundred cavalry immediately fell into a tough defensive battle.Fortunately, the cavalry was well-armored and powerful, with few casualties.

But if we continue to fight hard in the face of more and more thousands of enemy troops, even if we don't die in battle, I'm afraid they will be exhausted to death.

The spears had already been thrown while charging into the formation, and the five hundred Jiangdong cavalry could only rely on the sharpness of their sabers and bows and arrows to maintain their own defensive circle.Facing the siege of thousands of dense enemy soldiers, there is no distance for heavy cavalry to accelerate.

Thousands of people crowded together in a small square at the east gate, almost unable to move.Cheng Pu and Zhang Liao didn't expect the battle to turn into this suddenly, they couldn't help but look at each other, but there was nothing they could do.It seems that we can only wait for the rescue of Han Dang's team.

At a time when neither side can eliminate the other, it can only be a stalemate.With the sound of heavy hoofbeats, Han Dang and Xu Yi's iron cavalry rushed towards them like a blue-black cloud mixed with violent thunder.

The thousands of chaotic and crowded Xiangyang defenders were stunned, followed by the intensive shooting of guns like a heavy rain.

Wang Wei, the general of the Jingzhou Army who was recently appointed by Liu Biao, stood at the gate of the city.A pair of bushy brows were tightly frowned on the handsome face, and there was bitterness in his heart.At first, I thought it was just some peaceful refugees in the city setting fire and rioting.

Entering the city this time is only to quell the chaos!In order to act quickly, he just ordered his soldiers to wear light armor and enter the city lightly to counter the rebellion quickly.There are no long spears for attack and large shields for defense at all.

Because no one told him at the beginning that there were foreign enemies attacking the city, and they came with such powerful heavy cavalry.The guards who came to deliver the order only said that Master Zhou was ordered to send troops from outside the city into the city to clear up the riots.

Therefore, when he entered the city gate, he was caught off guard, and at least hundreds of soldiers were lost.

Right now, he was full of doubts, looking at the iron cavalry who roared and killed through their own army.He could only stand here and watch them rescue his accomplice, but he couldn't direct his messy movements.

"Where did these terrifying elite cavalry come from? How many of them are there? Originally, I wanted to trap them to death with the crowd tactics, but it seems to have worked, so why kill another batch?

Their war horses can gallop so freely on the battlefield, they are not afraid of so many sharp weapons on the ground.Just now, a galloping horse even stepped on the blade, and the blade flew up and pierced a soldier, which shows its great strength.On the contrary, the horse's foot was not damaged at all, and it could continue to run wildly.

Seeing them rushing for so long without a single horse falling down, this is really wicked!Could it be, could it be that these people have demon skills like the yellow scarf thieves back then, can they protect the horseshoes? "

Thinking that he was facing a group of monster soldiers who were as invincible as the Yellow Turban Bandits back then, Wang Wei couldn't help but fight a cold war.When he was a soldier back then, he saw with his own eyes those yellow scarf soldiers who were extremely weak cut off the heads of officers and soldiers.

Han Dang and the other four generals had no time to guess what General Wang Wei was thinking.The five hundred cavalrymen who had been enraged for a long time rushed out of the encirclement just now.Immediately, under the leadership of the riding captain Zhang Liao, he ran towards the distance.

After the knights assembled into the most powerful front arrow array with great proficiency, they immediately launched an assault on the Xiangyang army, and they wanted to vent their anger.There was also Xu Yi, who joined in the fun, and turned around and rushed back towards the Jingzhou soldiers along with Zhang Liao, yelling.

Han Dang and Cheng Pu looked at each other, and shook their heads with wry smiles at the aggressiveness of the two lieutenants, but they could only follow behind and kill.

The heavy hooves of a thousand cavalry shocked the entire city of Xiangyang.

Zhou Shan saw the four generals charge violently from the outside, and almost instantly defeated the Jingzhou army's formation.The heavy cavalry only made a charge, and under the brutal killing of sharp sabers and the trampling of heavy iron hooves, many frightened soldiers began to flee towards the surrounding streets.He quickly directed his scouts and teenagers to form a hunting and interception team.

With everyone's exquisite coordination skills and increasingly proficient swordsmanship, it is natural to catch these defeated soldiers with ease.

After a chasing and fleeing battle, the four hundred young men joined hands with the scouts to form a large and tight net, covering the entire battlefield.Few Jingzhou soldiers could escape from their encirclement.

After two rounds of fierce charging by a thousand heavy cavalry, at least a thousand corpses of Xiangyang soldiers who were chopped into two pieces by sabers and trampled into flesh by the iron hoofs of war horses lay on the ground.

Except for the hundreds of soldiers who were on the outskirts who fled in time, the rest of the Jingzhou soldiers have been killed by this group of cavalry who can't penetrate their knives or pierce their guns. I broke my nerve.

Just as he was not knowing how to find a place to hide to keep his head like others, he suddenly heard the neat slogan "Those who descend will not be killed" from the cavalry on the opposite side preparing for the third charge.

In the small square in front of the city gate, nearly a thousand remnant soldiers who felt that there was nowhere to run, suddenly lost the courage to fight.They put down their weapons one after another and knelt down on the ground.Right now, the gates of the city were already blocked, and several county soldiers were squeezing into the city but couldn't get in, let alone they wanted to escape.

When General Wang Wei saw that there was nothing to be done, he finally sent an order to stop the attack and the whole army retreated.The soldiers who had finally squeezed in had to be ordered to retreat outside the city gate.

It was another extremely chaotic commotion, and by the time the Jiangdong Army settled nearly a thousand captives in the square, Wang Wei had already retreated outside the city.Only the hundreds of people left behind on the passage in front of the city gate also began to evacuate slowly.

The four generals in command of the Jiangdong Army also looked tired when they saw their subordinates who had been fighting all morning.Even the most combative Xu Yi gave up the idea of ​​chasing him.This morning, he and Zhang Liao fought three times in and out of the enemy's formation, and finally vented the suffocation he had accumulated for many days since he defected to the Jiangdong Army.I think he has been kept in cold storage by Li Ru, and there is almost no chance of making a move.

At this time, there were only two thousand soldiers left under Wang Wei's men.In addition to the more than a thousand people who died in the battle, there are hundreds of people who have fled and scattered in the city.As for their fate, it depends on God's blessing.

The ancient city of Xiangyang was officially occupied by nearly [-] elite soldiers from the Jiangdong Army.

With the four gates blocked, the small group of remnants in the city were constantly being wiped out by the suppression team.They were either killed or surrendered, there was no third way to go.If you don't surrender, you can only pray that you won't be found by the Jiangdong Army's suppression team.

Under the dragon heads of the chaotic army in the city, the chaotic Jingzhou soldiers, except for half of them were killed under the strong pressure of the Jiangdong Army, most of them chose to surrender.

In just one afternoon, 600 Jiangdong Army cavalry, with the cooperation of Zhou Shan's remaining [-] scouts, made a full-scale attack from above and below ground, basically clearing out the chaos that was still lurking in the city.

Inside the Jingzhou State Shepherd's Mansion, Liu Biao sat in the lobby dejectedly.Kuai Yue, Wang Can, Yi Ji, and Han Song were separated from each other, all with anxious faces, fidgeting and looking at Master Shepherd of Shangzuo State.

After the chaos broke out in the city, only the aides of these few people who lived closest to the State Shepherd's Mansion rushed over under the escort of their entourage, but there was no trace of the others.Yi Ji lived in the mansion at all, and it was no surprise that he appeared here.

Now the state pastoral mansion is surrounded by nearly a thousand armored cavalry, even if someone wants to come, I'm afraid they won't be able to get in.

Right now, there are only nearly 200 rebels in the mansion who have withdrawn from various places in the city, plus the original [-] guards, there are only [-] people in total.How can these defeated soldiers who are also frightened themselves be able to reassure the few high-ranking people in the hall!

What's more, according to the news from the rebellious soldiers who retreated everywhere, there are thousands of enemy troops entering the city this time, and they are all fierce in killing people.

There are countless ranger masters helping them. The last news from outside the mansion is that General Wang Wei is besieging and suppressing a group of enemy cavalry at the east gate.

But it has been so long, seeing the sun is westward, and there is no good news, it is estimated that it is more or less ominous.I hope he will come to the rescue!

In other words, Xiangyang City has been captured right now!
