Shu Han Confucian General of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 95
"Captain, no!" About half an hour later, Zhou Tai led the commando with more than half of the casualties back and said dejectedly. Seeing Zhou Yu's face was a little unsightly, Zhou Tai gritted his teeth and said: "There is only a small road in the back mountain. It is not as spacious as the Qianshan Road. If we attack the mountain from there, the Xuzhou army only needs a few hundred people to guard it."

"Understood!" Zhou Yu said in a cold and authentic tone, which made people shudder. "Pass down the order, let the soldiers rest in shifts, and keep attacking. No matter how many people are killed or injured today, you must take down Shenting Ridge and capture Zhao Botao alive. I will kill him with my own hands and avenge Brother Bofu!" Zhou Yu said. The order finally made Cheng Pu and others feel a little relieved. After all, it is better to rest in shifts than to swarm.In fact, the reason why Zhou Yu forced to attack overnight in such a way that almost ignored casualties was that revenge for Sun Ce was on the one hand, but on the other hand, he knew that the reason why the Xuzhou army blocked him in Shentingling with such fanfare was by no means aimless. In all likelihood, something happened to Wu County, so I made up my mind to rush to Wu County as soon as possible to make sure.Thinking of this, Zhou Yu also ordered someone to take out a carrier pigeon that was carried with the army, and the pigeon sent a letter to tell Sun Quan that there was a small obstacle, and he would probably be able to arrive tomorrow morning.

"Attack to Shenting Ridge and capture Zhao Botao alive!" When the third wave of attack began, the commanders of the Jiangdong Army had already begun to incite the soldiers to shout this slogan.Thousands of people all over the mountains shouted the mantra of the cross, and then rushed up the mountain either actively or passively. "Damn, what do you think of me for giving me face like this?" Zhao Feng saw waves of Jiangdong Army rushing up like crazy, and his soldiers were doing everything possible to stop them.This kind of scene reminded him of the old movie "Red Sun", in which the People's Liberation Army yelled at the end to capture Zhang Lingfu alive, and hoped that he would not end up annihilated and committed suicide today.

"General Zhao, are these Jiangdong bastards crazy?" After another wave of attack was repelled, Chen Dao wiped the blood from his face and asked bitterly. "Leave them alone, pay attention to defending, how about the casualties of the soldiers?" Zhao Feng asked in a deep voice.Now I am the backbone of this defender, not only my own side thinks so, even the enemy also acquiesces.

"Up to now, there have been 2000 casualties, and nearly [-] Baier elite soldiers have been killed or injured!" Chen Dao said in disbelief.Zhao Feng looked up at the sky, it should have been blocking the enemy for at least five hours at this time, it should be almost midnight now, there is still more than an hour before the second watch.

"Turn on tight, I think the Jiangdong army is at least 2000 dead!" Zhao Feng comforted.Although the terrain of Shenting Ridge is relatively flat, it is a mountain after all. When the Jiangdong Army attacks from the front, it can only dispatch a maximum of [-] people at a time, otherwise the formation will not be able to unfold.Thanks to this, the Xuzhou army can effectively kill the enemy while preserving its strength.

"Whoosh!" Huang Zhong shot another arrow, and another Dubo of the Jiangdong Army was shot through the chest by him again.This is the number 20 of the seven officers who died under his arrows. The Xuzhou army, which was trying hard to defend, was still full of cheers and morale was boosted despite their busy schedule.The Jiangdong army had known for a long time that the Xuzhou army had an archery veteran who specialized in sniping and killing the commanding officer, and was a little uneasy for a while, and the attack efficiency was greatly reduced.

As No.30 chiefs were shot to death by Huang Zhong with one arrow, this wave of attacks was also repelled. This is already the eighth attack launched by the Jiangdong Army. "Keep attacking, don't stop!" Zhou Yu's cold words made Tai Shici, who was about to make a suggestion, swallow the words back. "Zhou Yu is desperate. It seems that he wants to avenge Sun Ce!" Seeing Jiangdong's army attacking the city with such force, it didn't take long for Zhao Feng to figure out the key point.Seeing that the Jiangdong Army was preparing to organize the ninth wave of attack, Zhao Feng also took the opportunity to drink water to moisten his throat, and then shouted at Zhou Yu at the foot of the mountain: "Zhou Yu, you fucking bastard! In a brothel, there will be no crap! Your mother has no asshole, your father sells an asshole, and your own asshole! You can learn to cry at the age of one, learn to laugh at the age of two, learn to stand at the age of three, learn to crawl at the age of four, and learn to crawl at the age of five. Learned to peek at my mother taking a bath, and was castrated into the palace as a eunuch at the age of ten!" His voice was high-pitched, Shentingling was not too high, and there was no shout of killing at this time, most of the soldiers of the two armies could hear it clearly, Suddenly there was an uproar.

Zhao Feng was still not satisfied, and then scolded: "You are a fake man, you are a fake man, you met a fake man like Sun Ce, and then you got mixed up with the governor of Jiangdong. You two fake men blinded the beautiful wife at home for nothing!" After the phone call, Zhao Feng felt really refreshed, and most of the resentment from being suppressed and beaten for a long time seemed to have disappeared.

"General Zhao, your swear words are too poisonous!" Chen Dao thought about it for a while after hearing it, and then expressed his admiration to Zhao Feng. "Showing your ugliness, and being captured alive by him for a long time, clay figurines are also earthy!" Zhao Feng said with a chuckle.

"Zhou Yu, a fake man! Zhou Yu, a fake man!" Chen Dao and Zhao Feng were still flattering each other, while the crossbowmen under Huang Zhong's command had already started cursing collectively rhythmically. "Sure enough, you are old and strong, and your learning ability is no worse than that of young people!" Zhao Feng sighed, and Chen Dao nodded repeatedly, fully agreeing.

"How unreasonable!" Zhou Yu's handsome face at the foot of the mountain was already flushed with anger. He had never seen such a vicious shrew swearing at the street. "Great governor, the final general is willing to lead another team to go up to Shenting Ridge and kill Zhao Feng's dog thief!" Tai Shici also said through gritted teeth.To say that Zhao Feng scolded too harshly, even the dead Sun Ce was scolded by him.But now that the two armies are confronting each other, he can't care about good morals anymore.

"Zhou Tai, come with me again!" Zhou Yu yelled angrily, Zhou Tai had also personally selected a team and was about to go up the mountain.But Cheng Pu who was on the side shouted in panic: "General Governor, fire, Wu County is on fire!" Zhou Yu turned his head and looked from a distance when he heard the sound. It was a fire, and while ordering people to attack, he quickly asked Tanma to go and find out.

"General, Wu County is on fire!" On Shenting Ridge, Chen Dao also excitedly said to Zhao Feng. "Very good, let the soldiers do their best to defend, the lord will send people to rescue us after Wu Jun is settled!" Zhao Feng stood taller, besides the fire, he could vaguely see the figures of people fighting in Wu Jun.

In fact, just as Zhao Feng had expected, the city of Wujun was indeed in a state of chaos.Since Shenting Ridge is not far from Wu County, Sun Quan and others in the city have heard the movement since Zhou Yu and Zhao Feng started to confront each other in the evening.Later, when I received Zhou Yu's letter from Feige, I realized that it was blocked by the Xuzhou army.Fortunately, the reinforcements were only twenty miles away. Although they didn't meet up, they finally saw them, and Sun Quan and others felt more at ease.At the same time, Xu Gong was afraid that Zhou Yu would break through the defense and come for reinforcements. After hesitating for a while, he joined forces with his party and risked opening the south city gate before the agreed second watch.

His early activation made the Xuzhou army who were waiting outside the city a little unable to react.Fortunately, the attention of the defenders was on the west side to pay attention to the battle at Shenting Ridge, and there were not many defenders at the south gate.After Xu Gong entangled with thousands of people, he unexpectedly opened the city gate under a sudden attack.However, Xu Gong's private soldiers assembled temporarily could not match the regular army's combat effectiveness. The guard Ma Zhong who was patrolling nearby soon after heard the news and led his troops to kill them.

Seeing that the city gate was about to be recaptured by the Jiangdong army, Wenpin and Xu Sheng, who were ambushing outside the south gate, finally led a commando into the city and started a fierce battle with Ma Zhong's men.At this time, there were less than 300 people left under Xu Gong's command. As long as Ma Zhong was given another cup of tea, he could take back the city gate, but Wenpin would never give him this chance.

"Help me!" Xu Gong is a civil servant, and the scene of such a fight made him terrified, if not for the guards around him, he would have died many times already.Ma Zhong hated him for colluding with foreign enemies, but led his army to beat him hard.At this moment, Xu Sheng led his army to stop Ma Zhong and fight. Xu Gong finally escaped with his life, and was escorted out of the city.

"Is your Excellency the prefect Xu?" Seeing a civil servant slipping out of the city under the protection of the crowd, Wen Pin hurriedly stepped forward and asked. "It's Xu, the unknown general?" Xu Gong repeatedly agreed.

"Pin below!" Wenpin replied, and Xu Gong hurriedly thanked Wenpin for saving his life. "Xu Taishou is too polite, and Wen is just following orders. Uncle Liu is in the tent, and the fighting is going on here, so it's not safe. The prefect should go see my lord first!" Wen Pin was extremely polite, and pulled Xu Gong went to see Liu Bei.

"Thank you, thank you!" Xu Gong burst into tears, at this moment a arrow shot down from the top of the wall, Wen Pin pulled Xu Gong, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally, and after the latter staggered a step, the arrow just hit him in the back.

"Huh?" Xu Gong was caught off guard by the sudden disaster, and then the god of death came quickly.At the moment before he lost consciousness, he seemed to hear Wenpin say: "I'm sorry Governor Xu, you know too much!"

Xu Gong's accidental death was just a small episode. More and more Xuzhou troops entered Wu County through the south gate and started street fighting with the defenders in the city.Without the tall city wall as a cover, the gap in combat effectiveness between Jiangdong Army and Xuzhou Army's infantry was immediately reflected.Sun Quan and others are not generals who are good at commanding on the spot, so the defenders are fighting fiercely with the Xuzhou army almost by survival instinct, and the balance of battle is gradually tilting towards the Xuzhou army.

The scuffle all night didn't come to an end until the east was slightly pale.Not long after the fierce battle started, Zhou Yu also learned from Tanma who came back that Wu County was about to fall, and he who had already attacked with all his might went crazy and ordered people to attack Shentingling at all costs.

"General Zhao, this fake man is in a hurry!" After repelling another wave of attacks, Chen Dao was also out of breath. "Uncle Zhi, hold on a little longer. I see that Wujun's shouting has stopped. The Lord must have captured the city and will come to reinforce us soon!" Zhao Feng wiped the blood splashed on his face, ignoring the pungent The smell of blood, I still try to encourage Chen Dao.

"Understood!" Chen Dao was also a man of understanding, he didn't say anything after hearing this, and prepared to defend the Jiangdong Army's next attack.At this time, the mountain road was already full of corpses of the Jiangdong Army, and the corpses of the Xuzhou Army's own dead were dragged back and placed on the top of the mountain.Zhou Yu was in such a hurry to capture Shenting Ridge that he didn't even have time to collect the corpses.

"It's broken!" Zhou Yu heard the sound of shouting and killing in Wu Jun in the distance gradually disappearing, and suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.At this moment, a scout who had been dispatched before hurried back to report to him.

"Great Governor, Wu County has fallen!"
