Chapter 261 Battle of Xingyang ([-])

From the tent, there was a foul smell.

Cao Cao resisted the urge to vomit, his face was pale, and he came out with some staggering steps.

In the wounded camp, the sound of wailing and screams filled the air, and it made people feel an indescribable pain in their hearts.

Cao Cao walked out of the wounded barracks, leaned on a dead tree, and vomited violently.

It can be said that he has never seen the tragic situation he saw just now.The rags covered with blood, flesh and excrement made him finally know what the cruelty of war is.The breakfast was vomited clean, even the gall was vomited.

After finally stopping the vomiting, Cao Cao straightened up, his feet felt weak, and his head was buzzing.

Even Xu Chu and Hu Che'er, who have always boasted of being very courageous, are not much better than Cao Cao at the moment.However, although the two of them did not vomit, their faces turned pale.

"My lord, how can someone fight like this, even use that thing? Damn, I feel a little..."

Xu Chu cursed loudly.

Unexpectedly, before he could finish his sentence, Cao Cao felt nauseated again, and he vomited again while holding the dead tree.

kill, kill...

These are all normal things.But it was the first time Dong Bi had encountered such a trick, and it was difficult for normal people to accept.

"Zhongkang, don't bring this up with me again, I'm... vomit!"

Finally back to normal, Cao Cao led his men back to the camp.

Tao Qian was sitting in the tent, when he saw Cao Cao appearing, he stood up and said loudly: "This battle is impossible, it is impossible!"

"Gongzu, be safe and don't be impatient."

Cao Cao naturally understood what Tao Qian meant, and said with a wry smile: "Isn't that what war is like? If we attack the city, let others find a way. It's just that Xiping's move is too vicious. After a few days, our army's morale has been weakened. "

Zhang Chao patted the armrest of the chair, "If you are weak, you have to fight...it's all over, and we have no way out."

"Prefect Zhang is right!"

Xi Zhicai and others came in through the curtain, and it could be seen that their expressions were not very good.

Yiji said: "My lord, now we can only attack by force. Whoever can persist until the end will win. We suffered heavy losses, so Dong Xiping didn't lose? Even if Luoyang has reinforcements to support them, how long can they persist. "

Xi Zhicai was speechless and silent.

Cao Cao was really hesitant, wondering if he should fight.

Tell him rationally and clearly that you can't fight anymore.But the reality told him that it was impossible not to fight.

The siege of Xingyang lasted for nearly forty days, and both sides suffered heavy losses.Now, it depends on who can hold on.

Xu Chu stood up and said, "My lord, I would like to fight tomorrow to take Nancheng for my lord..."

"What is Zhongkang talking about?" Before Xu Chu could finish his sentence, Cao Hong got up and said loudly, "My lord still needs your protection, so how can I leave without permission? My lord, I would like to ask for an order, and I will definitely take it down tomorrow." Xingyang City."

Cao Cao wanted to persuade, so Xi Zhicai said: "My lord, the only way to do it now is to attack by force."

Everyone heard it and praised it.

Cao Cao saw that everyone was excited, so he stopped talking.

After sending Tao Qian and the others away, Cao Cao held back Xi Zhicai and Yi Ji, "Sir, it's unwise to do it knowing you can't do it!"

Xi Zhicai smiled wryly and said, "I don't know. Now that I think about it, I shouldn't have persuaded the lord to send troops. I underestimated Dong Zhuo's ability...I didn't expect that the mere martial artist of the Dong family could fight to such an extent...cough Cough cough!"

After a violent cough, Xi Zhicai closed his eyes to calm the blood in his chest.

After swallowing a piece of Wushi powder, a morbid blush appeared on his pale face, "My lord, I will command the battle tomorrow!"

"Sir, your body..."

Xi Zhicai smiled, "My lord, don't worry, you will supervise the battle in the three cities tomorrow, and I will lead the army to attack the south city. Time is running out, running out!"

No one knew what Xi Zhicai meant when he said that time was running out.

Cao Cao felt that Xi Zhicai must be saying that if Xingyang could not be broken, the food and grass in the army would be in danger.

At the moment, he didn't delve into the meaning of Xi Zhicai's words, so he nodded in agreement.

It was winter, and the dawn was late.

Xi Zhicai commanded the troops to launch another fierce attack on Nancheng at dawn.

The fearless Qiang Yong carried the ladder and rushed towards the city tower, wave after wave of attacks, making it too late for the golden juice on the city to boil.

"Cao Hong..."

"The end is here!"

"I don't care how much I lose, what method do you use, I want you to take the city head for me, otherwise I'll bring it up and see you."

When the war has reached such a level, all intrigues and schemes are no longer important.

Xi Zhicai gave an order, and Cao Hong immediately led his men to rush towards Xingyang.

At this moment, Dong Bi was running on the tower with a broad blade in his hand.The fearless attack of the coalition forces made him clear that it was time for a decisive battle.

The broad-bladed knife kept bringing out patches of blood, and Dong Pi's eyes were red from the blood-spattered city.

He couldn't remember exactly how many people he had killed, but the edge of the treasured sword from the Western Regions that Mrs. Dong had given him back then had been curled.

Even so, Dong Bi didn't have time to change weapons.

Only roaring and constantly waving the big knife, the image of the blood and flesh flying like a fierce god was deeply imprinted in the minds of the Kwantung Allied Forces.

The battle lasted from early morning to afternoon, and it became more and more fierce.

Finally, the city wall collapsed through repeated attacks.

Cao Hong led his men and horses to the top of the city through the gap.It was already the twelfth lunar month of winter, but this guy was shirtless and covered in blood.

Dong Bi didn't recognize Cao Hong, but Cao Hong recognized Dong Bi.

Cao Cao told the generals of the Cao family about Dong Bi's appearance more than once, so Cao Hong saw Dong Bi who was being killed at a glance.

With a tiger roar, he swung his knife and rushed towards Dong Bi.

Dong Bi had already lost his head. Seeing someone rushing over, the broad-bladed knife slashed several coalition troops around him with the sound of the wind.Facing Cao Hong, he rushed over, stepped into the air, and the thunder-like roar echoed over the city like a thunderbolt.

clang……

Cao Hong's knife was shattered by Dong Pi's blow, and he staggered backwards.

And the broad-edged knife was also broken by Dong Bi's great force...

This was a gift from Mrs. Dong, but it was ruined here unexpectedly.Dong Bi's eyes were red, he let out a sharp roar, and rushed forward.

A coalition army stepped forward to stop them, but Dong Bi dodged the weapon and knocked them over with his fist.

At this time, Cao Hong just stood up.

The blow just now made his ears buzzing.Before he could react, Dong Bi rushed forward.

Pu Shan clasped Cao Hong's neck with his big hand, and several coalition soldiers stabbed at him with spears, and even a long spear pierced Dong Bi's shoulder.The severe pain drove Dong Bi completely crazy... He pinched Cao Hong's neck, exerted force with one arm, and with a whimper, Cao Hong was turned into a wheel.He held the spear with one hand, twisted it hard, twisted the barrel of the gun, followed Cao Hong's body and swept over, smashing the coalition soldiers to the ground.

With a bang, Cao Hong's legs hit the ground, and he let out a scream from the mouth that was clasped tightly around his neck.

Dong Bi grabbed one of Cao Hong's legs with one hand, and the other leg with the other hand. With both arms, he roared angrily, "Go!"

Cao Hong was torn in half.

His body was covered in blood, viscera, and a piece of intestine was hanging from his neck.

With half a corpse in his hand, Dong Bi launched a fierce attack.That image was enough to tear the minds of the soldiers who climbed to the top of the wall.However, the Liangzhou army guarding the city was greatly shaken, and drove the coalition army who had just climbed to the top of the city and had no firm foothold down the city.

The news of Cao Hong's death made Xi Zhicai faint on the spot, holding his breath.

When Cao Cao heard the news, his whole body stepped down...

That's his brother from the same family, and he's been loyal ever since he took refuge in him.Cao Cao spat out a mouthful of blood and fell into a coma on the spot.

The attack that lasted for a day had to be stopped.

The slow retreat of the coalition forces also gave Xingyang a moment of respite.

Dong Bi, who had come to his senses, knew very well in his heart that Xingyang would be destroyed if it went on like this.

Especially the gap in Nancheng, although it was closed hastily.

But tomorrow, can we continue to support it?
Sitting in the hall with Jia Xu, the two looked at each other, neither of them knew what to do.

"Zhihou, let's retreat!"

Yang Ding, the guard of Xingyang, couldn't help standing up and speaking, "We can follow the example of Ao Cang, wait for the enemy to come in, and burn Xingyang with fire."

Jia Xu shook his head, "I'm afraid it will be difficult to succeed if the same trick is used a second time."

Dong Bi said: "General Yang, we have reached the limit. If we withdraw from Xingyang, the coalition forces that are already on the verge of collapse will regain their vitality. On the contrary, if we can hold Xingyang, the coalition forces will completely collapse. The current situation is In this way, whoever can hold on, may win. Take a step back, and we are finished."

How could Yang Ding not understand this truth?

But the current situation is that the city wall of Xingyang has been damaged, can it survive?
Feeling the oppressive atmosphere, Dong Bi stood up and walked out of the hall.The cold air in the middle of the night woke his drowsy head.

If it doesn't work, just withdraw!

Dong Bi persuaded himself: "Having reached this level, even if Cao Cao occupied Xingyang, he might not have the strength to go west."

No...

Cheng Gao is not lost, how can I lose to Lu Bu?

Dong Bi clenched his fist and vetoed the previous idea.That's right, if Lu Bu defends Chenggao, but he loses Xingyang, then no one in Dong Zhuo's lineage can suppress Lu Bu anymore.If Lu Bu cannot be suppressed, his ambition will...

Dong Bi leaned against the porch pillar and looked up into the sky.

The moonlight tonight is extraordinarily bright.The icicles under the eaves are crystal clear.

A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and Dong Bi yelled: "I have a solution, I have a solution..."
