The Conquest of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 38 Sending troops to Xiangyang

"Soldiers are coming out of Jingzhou in full swing, and they will not return until Xiangcheng is destroyed; I don't know if my fame will last forever, so I only leave a piece of writing to write down the policy."

Nie Zefeng discussed with the generals, now that they have just arrived in Jingzhou, all the soldiers and horses have not fully recovered and need to rest for a while, so they can only send one person to attack Xiangyang City and Fancheng first.

"Report to Marshal, today you have recruited five eyebrows from Jingzhou, Wang Can, Wang Jun, Yiji and other celebrities in the recruitment list you released today."

"Okay, I'll meet them in person in a moment."

Nie Zefeng turned around and said, "Wei Yan."

"The last general is here. I am now formally appointed as the commander-in-chief of Nanfu Zhonglang, commanding [-] troops to attack Fancheng and Xiangyang City."

"The last will obey."

"Gao Shun."

"The end is here."

"Order you to command the troops and horses of the headquarters as backup."

"Yes."

"You can send troops."

Wei Yan and Gao Shun went back to rectify the troops, and Wei Yan led the troops to attack Fancheng first.

In less than half a day, Wei Yan's soldiers and horses had reached the base of Fancheng, and the guards stationed in Fancheng were two rebel generals, Chen Sheng and Zhang Hu.

The two have always looked down on Wei Yan. They heard that Wei Yan led the military engineering team to Fancheng, and they rushed out of the city first. Chen Sheng swung his saber, Zhang Hu swung his gun and Wei Yan swung his saber. Wei Yan urged the horse forward while taking out the carved bow He shot Zhang Hu to death with an arrow, and then took the knife and stood with Chen Sheng. Since Zhang Hu died, Chen Sheng was somewhat timid, and Wei Yanli slashed the knife sharply, and the move was fatal.

Wei Yan directly split Chen Sheng in half with a knife, and Wen Qiang, who was standing behind, shouted "Chong!"

Wancheng soldiers rushed directly into the city following these defeated soldiers, and Fancheng was captured instantly.

"General Wen, I didn't expect us to take down Fancheng so smoothly. I think we dare to take down Xiangyang. The marshal returned me [-] troops. I think it's unnecessary, and it's even more unnecessary to ask General Gao to support him."

"The whole army advances rapidly and hits Xiangyang. Each person will be rewarded with ten catties of meat and one catty of wine."

Under the lure of this material, the whole army rushed to Xiangyang City like crazy.

At this time, in the General's Mansion in Xiangyang City, Huo Jun and Xiang Lang were discussing the city defense of Xiangyang in the hall.

"Report."

A messenger rushed in to report: "Report to the general, Fancheng has fallen, and the enemy has already marched towards Xiangyang, the general please make a decision."

"Send the order, the four doors are closed, don't go out to fight."

Wei Yan and Wen Qiang led [-] cavalry to the outside of Xiangyang.

Wei Yan came to the city first, and looked up, there was no one on the top of the city, it was too quiet, too quiet.

However, Wei Yan, who was temporarily occupied by the mood of victory, didn't think too much, but shouted loudly to the top of the city: "Wei Yan is here, who dares to fight?"

Although the sound is not loud, it can be heard unobstructed around the quiet city wall.

Wen Qiang slowly urged the cavalry forward.

"Wei Yan is here, who dares to fight me."

In an instant, countless banners at the top of the city blocked out the sun, and suddenly a rain of arrows whizzed out, screaming all the way, tearing through the gorgeous blue sky, piercing through the clouds, "Shua-shua-shua."

In an instant, the sky was full of arrows, like a thick dark cloud, flying towards Wei Yan's army.

"Shield raised. Back off."

All the cavalry raised their long shields, "Quick, quick."

Wei Yan let out a long cry, and almost all the soldiers lay on their horses and retreated in an orderly manner.

As the long arrows fell, the piercing and sharp screams made one's hair stand on end. One after another, soldiers fell off their horses, and some long arrows were nailed to the long shield, making a dense and dull sound, like a hailstorm.

Just like that, Wei Yan fired three consecutive rounds from the top of the city before Wei Yan's entire cavalry corps exited the range above the top of the city.

Huo Jun shouted loudly from the top of the tower: "Wei Yan, you villain who betrays the owner and seeks glory, you have the nerve to attack my Xiangyang, today this is your grave..."

Wei Yan originally planned to wave his cavalry to attack the city again, but Wen Qiang dissuaded him: "General, it's getting late, and we don't have any suitable siege weapons right now, so let's wait for the follow-up troops to arrive."

When Wei Yan heard this, he also ordered the troops to retreat a mile and set up camp, waiting for follow-up reinforcements. A big battle was imminent.
