Jagged hegemony of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 576 Bloody battle at the head of the city

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

In the early morning of the next day, with the sound of war drums, hundreds of thousands of Liaozhou troops assembled at the north gate of Yecheng. Dian Wei and Sui Yuanjin led more than [-] death-death troops to hide in the army.

Liu Wei also stood in front of the formation with a golden helmet and armor, riding on the back of the wind, staring closely at Yecheng on the opposite side.

Today, Liu Wei was extremely nervous, because if he couldn't take Yecheng today, then he had only two choices, either to retreat, or use Pang Tong's strategy to burn Yecheng.

"Gao Qiang, get ready!"

Liu Wei said to Gao Qiang who was beside him.

"Here!"

After Gao Qiang got the order, he led the artillery, and was escorted by the euphorbia soldiers, and moved forward.

When they were 500 meters away from the city, a hundred cannons lined up, ready to bombard Yecheng.

"fire!"

After waiting for a cup of tea, Liu Wei yelled at Gao Qiang.

"fire!"

Gao Qiang waved the command flag in his hand, and hundreds of cannons were fired together.

"attack!"

Liu Wei said lightly.

"kill!"

Dian Wei jumped off his horse, holding a pair of iron halberds and dozens of small halberds on his back, and took the lead to charge towards Yecheng.

And Sui Yuanjin was not to be outdone, he held a one-legged bronze man in one hand, supported the siege vehicle, and walked forward slowly.

A salvo of artillery fire overwhelmed Yuan Jun on the city.

The artillery continued to rumble and fire solid shells, and the shells were fired as if they were free of money.Yuan Jun, who was overwhelmed by the city, lay on the city wall and dared not get up.

"Brothers, if you don't rush now, when will you wait!"

Dian Wei let go of his big feet like a boat, took three steps in parallel, and rushed forward quickly.

"Clang!"

When the artillery stopped, the first siege vehicle had already arrived under the city of Yecheng, and the ladder was lowered from the siege vehicle and set on the gate of Yecheng.

As the first siege vehicle lowered the ladder, dozens of siege vehicles that followed also came to the foot of Ye City and put the ladder on the city wall.

"Come on!"

The Liaozhou Army climbed up the ladder, while Yuan Jun's soldiers on the top of the city were desperately shooting arrows and throwing wood and rolling stones.

"Hold it, you must hold it, don't let them attack!"

Ma Yan, who was appointed by Yuan Shao as one of the guards at the north gate of Yecheng, held a saber in his hand, and kept slashing and killing the soldiers of the Liaozhou army who rushed forward.

Although this Ma Yan was not a famous general, he was also a third-rate military general. The saber in his hand weighed a full twenty catties, and he chopped down all the soldiers who rushed to the top of the wall.

Ma Yan also thought something was wrong in his heart. He thought that he could lead his troops to rest if he defended for another day today, but he didn't expect that the Liaozhou Army would be so fierce today. In the first round of charging, someone rushed to the top of the city. This is very likely to be a decisive battle today.

Thinking of this, Ma Yan immediately sent someone to Jinyang Mansion for help, asking Yuan Shao to increase his troops, otherwise Yecheng might really be unable to defend.

After Yuan Shao got the news, he didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly sent General Gao Xiang to lead [-] elite troops to reinforce.

For a while, the two sides started a tug-of-war. The Liaozhou army would definitely be able to attack the top of the city with all its strength, and Yuan Jun could always beat back the Liao army that had attacked the top of the city due to the large number of people.The two sides are like a tug-of-war. The one who enters is said to be like a reverse tug-of-war. The tug-of-war is to pull back, and they are pushing forward.

The two sides fought for a full three hours. From morning to afternoon, the Liao army suffered heavy casualties, losing more than 3 people, and the Yuan army on the top of the city suffered a similar number of casualties.

But Yuan Shao drew another [-] soldiers from the barracks in the city, and they were on their way.

But Dian Wei and Sui Yuanjin saw that the two sides were almost fighting, and it was time for the death squads to join, so they took off the armor of Hubenwei, and they were going to lead the army to the city in person.Why did you take off the heavy armor on your body? Because the armor of Dian Wei and Sui Yuanjin weighed [-] catties. Wearing it on the body not only consumes physical strength, but also is not flexible enough to move. , It's not as convenient as taking it off.

After Dian Wei and Sui Yuanjin took off their armors, they yelled at the daredevil army behind them: "death army, follow me!"

After saying that, Dian Wei waved his iron double halberds and took the lead to climb to the top of the city.

More than 1 death-death troops, armed with machetes and axes, climbed up the top of the city along the ladder.

"Oh, someone is here again!"

Seeing a man like a black iron tower appearing, Ma Yan exclaimed, then swung a knife and went straight to Dian Wei.

"You fucking court death!"

With a halberd, Dian Wei pushed away the saber that Ma Yan had slashed at, and stabbed at Ma Yan's chest with the other iron halberd.

Ma Yan hurriedly dropped the knife and stepped back, shouting as he retreated: "Stop him, kill him!"

Dian Wei originally wanted to step forward to end Ma Yan's life, but was stopped by Yuan Jun who rushed forward.

When Ma Yan was rejoicing that he escaped with his life, he heard a loud roar from behind: "Go to hell!"

Then I heard: "Boom! Puchi!"

I saw Ma Yan's brain burst from being smashed, and he fell to the ground so dead that he couldn't die anymore.

Sui Yuanjin was none other than Sui Yuanjin who killed Ma Yan. It turned out that after Sui Yuanjin climbed to the top of the wall, he saw Ma Yan commanding there, touched Ma Yan's back, and killed Ma Yan with a hammer.

Dian Wei naturally also saw this scene, so he yelled at Sui Yuanjin: "Yuan Jin, you stay here and guard, I will take people to the city to blow up the city gate!"

As he said that, Dian Wei rushed down the city with more than 1000 death-defying troops with gunpowder bags on their bodies.

It turned out that the gate of Yecheng was blocked by Yuan Shao from the inside, and it was built with a stone wall, with a thousand-jin gate in the middle, and the bombed and battered city gate outside.

If you want the army to rush into Yecheng from the city gate, you have to blow up the stone wall and pull up the thousand-jin gate before Liu Wei can enter the city.

Seeing Dian Wei going down the city, some people immediately wanted to chase Dian Wei, but Sui Yuanjin couldn't do what they wanted, he lifted the one-legged bronze spear, blocked Yuan Jun's way, and beat him violently with a thunderbolt.

When Dian Wei arrived at the city gate, hundreds of soldiers guarding the city gate were about to draw their bows and shoot arrows. Dian Wei put the two iron halberds in one hand, pulled out a few small halberds from behind, and pointed at them. Yuan Jun who drew the bow threw it away.

"Puff puff!"

With one halberd, several Yuan Jun soldiers were killed immediately.

Immediately afterwards, Dian Wei jumped forward holding the iron pair of halberds, rushed into the crowd, and knocked down more than 100 Yuan Jun soldiers in an instant.

"Run!"

The rest of Yuan Jun's soldiers all ran away with their heads in their hands.

"Put the explosives and blow up this stone gate for me!"

Each of the [-] death-death soldiers brought a catty of earthen gunpowder, even though it was earthen gunpowder, but it was a thousand catties, and the power of the instant explosion should not be underestimated.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, the stone wall collapsed.
