The stalemate between the inner city and the outer city of Chaisang did not last long, and was soon broken by the Jiangdong Army's attack. Under the command of the general Ling Cao, the Jiangdong Army changed its attack strategy.

Ling Cao deployed two bow and crossbow troops on the north city, and suppressed the Jingzhou soldiers on both sides of the inner city with superior forces. In this way, the Jiangdong army that invaded Wengcheng could move forward slowly with their giant shields high, and would no longer be attacked by Jingzhou bowmen. Crossbowmen shoot from both sides.

A thousand soldiers from Jiangdong armed with huge shields have entered the Wengcheng. Under the cover of their huge shields, more than 100 strong men rushed towards the inner city gate with huge hammers. exactly the same.

Arrows from the top of the city were like rain, but hundreds of strong men holding battering rams were still slowly approaching the inner city gate under the tight protection of giant shields. This is the most direct and effective way to break through the inner city. A battering ram needs only three heavy blows to knock open a city gate.

Liu Jing watched the battering ram slowly approaching with stern eyes, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. When the battering ram was still twenty steps away from the city gate, Liu Jing gave the order, "Drop it!"

The soldiers on the top of the city picked up ceramic altars and threw them down. There was a crackling sound in the urn city, and black viscous liquid flowed all over the ground. Ling Cao could clearly see this scene from the outer city, and he was shocked immediately. Fainted, he repeatedly ordered: "The soldiers in the Wengcheng retreat quickly!"

But it was too late. Dozens of rockets flew from the inner city and shot at the urn. The flames in the urn suddenly rose, and the fire burned rapidly. The sudden fire plunged the soldiers in the urn into a sea of ​​flames.

There was chaos in the Wengcheng, the soldiers trampled on each other, scrambling to escape to the outside of the city, many soldiers became burning men, howled and ran around, and soon fell to the ground.

Arrows were fired in disorder in the city, and the soldiers fleeing out of the city were unprepared. , causing the flames in the urn to rise several feet, and the soldiers on both sides were frightened.

Many accidents seem to be accidental, but they will happen inevitably.

At this time, a Jingzhou soldier was a little stronger and shot a rocket off the target. The rocket flew over the Wengcheng and hit the top of the city above the water gate.

In the initial siege battle, Wang Tai was about to use kerosene to burn down the enemy warships, but before he had time to drop the kerosene, a roaring boulder smashed two hundred altars of kerosene, and the kerosene flowed all over the city.

This is Wang Tai's regret, but this regret brought an unexpected ending. The rocket that deviated from the target inadvertently ignited the fire oil all over the ground, and the outer city near the water gate also began to burn , the flames soared into the air, and thick smoke billowed.

The area of ​​this flame is not large, only more than [-] feet. If it was a quarter of an hour ago, it might not have had any impact, at least it would not have serious consequences. Extraordinarily fragile and sensitive.

When the head of the northern city also burned suddenly, the tense string in the hearts of Jiangdong soldiers broke suddenly, and there was a sudden chaos on the top of the city. Countless soldiers climbed the ladder and fled down the city, accompanied by their hoarse shouts: "The fire is coming!" ! The North City is on fire!"

The Jiangdong soldiers were terrified and ran for their lives desperately. They trampled on each other and shouted wildly. Many jumped off the wall in spite of everything. It seemed to collapse in an instant.

Liu Jing was also shocked by this accident, but without hesitation, he immediately said to the anxious Liu Huling: "The heavily armored infantry attack and take back Beicheng!"

Liu Hu jumped up to two feet high, 'Aw! ' with a loud cry, turned back and ran towards the city wall, and shouted towards the city: "Brothers, the business is here, let me fight over there!"

. . . . . . . . . .

With the opening of the iron gate of the west gate of the city, under the leadership of Liu Hu, [-] heavy armored infantry, wearing heavy armor and holding a three-pointed double-edged knife, rushed towards the north city with murderous aura. Behind them, Wei Yan led more than a thousand soldiers. The soldiers followed closely.

Most of the Jiangdong army on Beicheng fled, leaving only 3000 people under Ling Cao's direct command. Under Ling Cao's vigorous maintenance, they have recovered from the chaos, but they are still in shock.

"All soldiers in their positions!"

Ling Cao shouted sharply: "Raise the shield to protect the bow and arrow!"

The soldiers ran back to their seats and squatted down to avoid the arrows from the inner city. At this moment, Ling Cao unexpectedly found that the bows and arrows in the inner city stopped shooting. blocked his view.

Suddenly there was commotion in the west, and screams kept coming. Ling Cao was taken aback. Looking back, he saw an army coming from the west, which was very clear under the light of the fire.

There are about 300 soldiers in this army, and the soldiers are very tall and burly, each of them is like an iron tower, covered in pitch black, holding a three-pointed double-edged knife in their hands.

Ling Cao suddenly remembered what Lu Xun had said. Chaisang had an elite group of heavy armored infantry, which should be this army. Seeing that this army had defeated the Jiangdong Army and was unable to resist, Ling Cao was furious and shouted. With a sound, he swung his gun and killed him.

The pace of the heavy armored infantry is not fast, they are very calm every step they take, the team is extremely neat, six people lined up, a total of fifty rows, they move like a mountain, with the blade cutting across, ghosts and gods are killed.

At this moment, Ling Cao led hundreds of people to kill him. Ling Cao shouted loudly, and the big iron spear pierced Liu Hu's chest in the middle.

Liu Hu gave a low cry, and the formation of the heavy armored infantry changed immediately. The second row of six people flashed out from the side and surrounded Ling Cao from the left. There were 12 people in two rows, and twelve swords slashed at Ling Cao at the same time.

What Ling Cao ushered in was twelve three-pointed two-edged knives cutting at the same time, which meant that even if he stabbed Liu Hu, he would be chopped into pieces by the other eleven knives at the same time.

Ling Cao was secretly startled, retracted his gun, and jumped back, dodging the mass attack of the heavy armored infantry. The heavy armored infantry did not change their rhythm because of Ling Cao, they resumed their formation, and marched forward step by step, killing Jiangdong. The soldiers retreated steadily.

Seeing that this heavy armored infantry was too sharp to stop, Ling Cao was helpless for a moment. At this time, there was a commotion from the east, and a soldier rushed to report, "General Ling, the Jingzhou army is also coming from the west. The leading general seems to be the enemy general Liu Jing."

Ling Cao was overjoyed. It turned out to be Liu Jing. If he could be captured, Chaisang City would be at his fingertips. He ignored the heavy armored infantry and turned to the east. Hundreds of soldiers could not withstand the impact of the heavy armored infantry and followed Ling Cao one after another. Withdrew east.

The voucher gate on the east side opened, and Liu Jing led two thousand soldiers to fight out. They rushed through the burning flames above the water city gate, and went straight to the Jiangdong army. . . . . .

At this time, the morale of the Jiangdong Army was low, and it was difficult to resist the double-sided attacks of the Jingzhou Army. , One after another climbed the ladder and fled outside the city.

Seeing that the northern city was about to be recaptured by the Jingzhou army, hundreds of Jiangdong soldiers led by the general Ling Cao launched a final counterattack. They were no longer facing heavy armored infantry, but the main force of the Jingzhou army coming from the east.

In the chaotic army, Ling Cao found Liu Jing at a glance. Liu Jing was eight feet three, holding a long halberd, like a god. Liu Jing, give me a shot."

Liu Jing had already seen Ling Cao, and a soldier told him that it was this man who killed Wang Tai. When the enemies met, they were extremely jealous. Liu Jing waved his halberd and nodded with a phoenix. The tip of the halberd stabbed Ling Cao's chest flatly.

The nod of the phoenix is ​​the official version of Fengleibian, and it is also the first move of Bainiaochaofeng spear. Although it is also stabbed with one blow, it is much more difficult than Fengleibian. Fengleibian pays attention to the speed change, slow down first. The back is fast, and Feng's nodding is a kind of power control, the speed is neither fast nor slow.

Ling Cao is a man of knowledge, he shouted, "Good time!"

Dodging Liu Jing with a dodge, Ling Cao stabbed Liu Jing's left rib from the side with his long spear, "Dang! With a loud noise, the spears and halberds collided, Liu Jing swung the iron spear, but the crescent blade struck Ling Cao's neck. . . . . .

The two sides fought back and forth with spears and halberds, and the two fought for more than ten rounds. At this moment, the Jiangdong Army camp in the distance suddenly burst into flames, and the shouts of killing shook the sky.

Ling Tong rushed to the top of the wall and shouted from a distance: "Father, Marquis Wu has an order to retreat immediately!"

Out of the corner of Ling Cao's eyes, he also saw the flames of the Jiangdong Army's camp in the distance, and he was secretly surprised. Seeing that he could not defeat Liu Jing for a while, he had no intention of fighting any more, and jumped out of the battle circle by showing a flaw.

"Liu Jing, spare your life today, we will fight again in the future!"

Ling Cao retreated to the edge of the city under the desperate guard of more than a hundred soldiers. How could Liu Jing allow him to escape?

For more than a year, Liu Jing practiced archery every night, and the night arrow has been practiced like a fire. This arrow passed through the crowd. At this time, Ling Cao had already climbed the city ladder. The moment it disappeared, the Spike Arrow hit like lightning. Ling Cao heard the strong wind, but it was too late to dodge.

'puff--'

The Spike arrow pierced Ling Cao's throat. With a muffled grunt, Ling Cao rolled down the city ladder and fell into the moat.

"Father!"

Ling Tong hissed, he jumped down the city and fell into the moat. When he touched his father from the river, he found that his father had died of anger.

. . . . . . . . .

The camp of the Jiangdong army was suddenly attacked by Huang Zhong with [-] soldiers. The camp was empty and there were only more than [-] defenders. They were caught off guard and became a mess.

Huang Zhong led his troops to enter from both sides and set fire to the camp at the same time. In the chaos, Jiangdong soldiers escaped from the camp protecting more than [-] civilian officers.

At this time, Sun Quan was already on his boat. He stared blankly at the fire in Chaisang City, his heart was blank. He got the news half an hour ago that Pengze Water Village was attacked by Gan Ning, and the warehouse and barracks were destroyed. Burnt and suffered heavy losses.

This news dealt a heavy blow to Sun Quan's confidence, and finally shook his determination. He had the idea of ​​retreating. It was this news that made Sun Quan return to the big ship. This was a kind of subconsciousness, even Sun Quan himself did not realize it. .

But bad news came one after another. General Pan Zhang was killed in battle, the camp was attacked by surprise, and the siege was unsuccessful. Sun Quan felt his heart start to angina.

He sat down slowly, bowed his head and said nothing, the generals and civil servants around were all quiet, even Zhou Yu did not dare to go forward to persuade Sun Quan, and did not know how to persuade him.

At this time, Lu Su stepped forward, bit his lips tightly, and slowly persuaded: "Wu Hou, we have suffered nearly 3 casualties, and our morale is low. We can't fight anymore. If we continue to fight, I'm afraid... We will not be able to return to Jiangdong."

Sun Quan still lowered his head, his body trembled slightly, his fists were clenched tightly, his knuckles turned white, at this moment, Ling Tong burst in crying and fell to his knees, "Marquis Wu, unfortunately my father died in battle! "

Sun Quan was shocked like a thousand arrows piercing through his heart. He couldn't hold it any longer, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and immediately fell to the ground in a faint on his back. All the generals were stunned and rushed up at the same time.

"Marquis Wu! Marquis Wu! Go to the military doctor quickly."

After a while, Sun Quan woke up, and he sighed, "Masters, I have no face to see my father and brother! No face to see Jiang Dong's elders!"

Zhou Yu wept and said, "Marquis Wu, please take care!"

Sun Quan shook his head, sighed again, and said to Zhou Yu, "Gong Jin, quickly pass on my order. The whole army boards the boat and withdraws back to Jiangdong. Order Cheng Pu to abandon Wuchang and Xiakou, and the whole army retreats!"

. . . . . . . .

The Chaisang War lasted for two days and two nights. From Yangxin County to Chaisang City, both sides suffered heavy casualties. The Jiangdong Army was finally unable to conquer Chaisang.

In desperation, Sun Quan had no choice but to give up Jiangxia, and the whole army withdrew to Jiangdong. The battle of Jiangxia, which had been fiercely fought for nearly half a month, finally came to an end.

A round of morning glow is rising slowly, and the golden light shines on the head of Chaisang City. Liu Jing is bathed in the morning glow, and his whole body is dyed golden. He stares at the Yangtze River for a long time without saying a word.

At this time, Xu Shu stepped forward slowly and said in a low voice, "Congratulations to Sima for successfully defeating the Jiangdong army, and he will soon take Jiangxia."

Liu Jing shook his head and smiled slightly, "Yuan Zhi, this is God's arrangement, let me be reborn as a phoenix and reborn from the ashes!"
