Chapter 242 The autumn wind sweeps the leaves (2)(1/2)

Wenxi City.

The city gates on all sides have been closed, and a large number of soldiers, under the urging of officers, came to the top of the city to guard.

Arrowmen, spearmen, swordsmen, and strong men are stacked layer by layer and densely packed. Materials are piled up on the city, like small mounds.

The strongmen lit the firewood and set up the oil pan.

On the city gate tower, the "Zhang" flags are flying in the wind, accompanied by the rising smoke, which looks like a cloud and a fog, and it is very fairy-like.

But even if there are many people and sufficient preparations, the soldiers cannot hide their fear. Things that make mistakes often happen.

Because it was not someone else who came, but the thunderous Grand Sima and General Zhang Xiu of the Cavalry.

Not long after, amid the sound of horse hooves, the guard general Wang Guang led dozens of followers to the near the city gate, turned over and dismounted, and walked up to the top of the city by foot.

He was also a great man in Bingzhou, tall and mighty. Because of his bravery in combat, he was promoted to a general by Zhang Yang.

Wang Guang first inspected the city walls to cheer up the morale of the soldiers, but the effect was not good. When he returned to the city gate tower, Wang Guang looked outside the city and said to the deputy general beside him: "How many people are there in the city?"

"Report to the general, there are still 17,800 people left."

The deputy general replied with a wry smile.

Wang Guang's heart sank. They still had 18,900 people yesterday. Last night, at least seven or eight hundred people fled from the city.

If this continues, they will be ruined without having to fight.

Wang Guang exhaled and said to the deputy general: "Slaughter all our sheep and pigs and reward the soldiers. Tell the soldiers that this war is inevitable. Following me is to die. If you go out of the city to join Zhang Xiu, you will definitely be sent out as a weak soldier to fill the moat."

"No." The deputy general replied and immediately sent someone to tell the soldiers.

These words did not greatly boost the morale of the soldiers, but also made the soldiers more afraid of joining Zhang Xiu, stabilizing the morale of the army.

"Can I stop him? Zhang Xiu!!! The Supreme Duke of the court, a powerful general who is intimidating the world." Wang Guang held the hilt of the sword in his left hand, his palms were covered in sweat.

Soon after, the sound of drums in the north was shaking and the sound of trumpets was melodious. First, a black dot appeared, and then black clouds hit the city, and the city was about to destroy.

The murderous aura that came from the sky rolled up dust and a demonic wind blew up.

"Da da da da da!!!"

Dozens of cavalry wearing iron armored and straddled tall and strong war horses galloped over. When they arrived at the city, they slapped their horses like mountains and were uniform.

A general came out of the crowd, with an extremely burly figure, with a tiger's eyes, a wide face and a square mouth, a pair of crescent halberds inserted behind his waist, making him extremely powerful and powerful.

The general looked up at Wenxi County, full of contempt and shouted: "I am Sima Dianwei, the commander of the Grand Sima, and will be ordered by you to open the city and surrender. Otherwise, after the city is broken, the guards, deputy generals, military guards, and Du Bo will all be trapped."

Dian Wei's voice was like a bell, resounding throughout the fields.

The name of Dian Wei gradually became popular. As the saying goes, there was Dian Jun under the tent of the Grand Sima, who made a pair of halberds eighty kilograms.

Zhang Xiu and Dian Wei are inseparable. Zhang Xiu holds a gun and Dian Wei holds a halberd, and the world is invincible.

The soldiers on the city were silent.

Wang Guang turned his head slightly and saw his deputy general swallowing his saliva, with a look of fear. He shouted: "We are born to serve Zhang Gong (Zhang Yang) and die to be the ghost of Zhang Gong. How can we surrender?"

"Order people to beat the drum and fight to the death!"

"promise."

Some personal soldiers were shocked and then sent an order.

"Dongdongdongdongdong." Soon after, the drums in the city were shaking, and the horns were ringing, saving some face.

Dian Wei glanced deeply at the top of the city and rode his horse to lead dozens of cavalrymen to Zhang Xiu.

"Ming Gong." Dian Wei turned over and dismounted and bowed.

Under the banner of the "Zhang" character, Zhang Xiu nodded to Dian Wei, then turned to the personal soldiers behind him and said, "Come on."

"promise."

The personal soldiers agreed and went down immediately. Soon after, some personal soldiers came with a wooden box and heavy gold.

In the sun, the golden light shone, attracting everyone's eyes.

Zhang Xiu turned his head, looked around at the tens of thousands of soldiers behind him, and laughed: "I, Zhang Xiu, is a generous person. Since Wang Guang is unwilling to open the city, he will do what he wants."

Speaking of this, Zhang Xiu looked up at the sun, and the sun was in the middle.

Zhang Xiu smiled and said, "Now, the sun is at dusk, the city is broken. Those who have obtained the head of Wang Guang will come back and put it in the wooden box and will be rewarded with 500 gold."

"General Shenweitian!!! General Shenweitian!!!!"

The soldiers let out deafening cheers. The officers such as the military waiter and Du Bo all looked hot, revealing their eyes like hungry wolfs, and looked up at Wenxi City.

"Give orders to let the cavalry set up camps. Infantry attacked the city, with three thousand men taking turns to attack the city. Let Zhang Liao supervise the army to take the lead."

Zhang Xiu still smiled and waved his hand.

"promise."

The messenger responded with a loud promise and immediately sent military orders in all directions.

"Crack, Crack!!!"

Zhang Liao rode his horse out, urged the big knife in his hand, urging the soldiers, pulling and pushing the well car, cloud ladder, and siege car, and constantly heading towards Wenxi City.

"Arrowman, shield soldiers follow." Zhang Liao urged loudly.

"kill!!!"

The majestic shield soldier held a large shield and headed forward. The archers hid behind the shield soldier, and slowly leaned towards the city wall.

"Swoosh swosh swosh!!!"

The archers in the city couldn't stand the murderous aura. They subconsciously shook their hands, let go of the bowstring, and shot out black arrows.

It was like a signal, and countless archers shot out arrows in their hands. For a moment, arrows on the city were like rain, and the roar continued.

But these arrows were all lost.

"Who told you to shoot the arrow???? Now the enemy still has at least 150 steps. Can you shoot people to death?" Wang Guang was furious and scolded.

The archers didn't say a word, unable to hide their nervousness.

After the Zhang Xiujun who arrived at the city and reached the range range, the archers were nervous and could not shoot arrows as soon as possible. Instead, the Zhang Xiujun soldiers under the city and the archers on the well cart opened their bows and shot arrows first.

"Swoosh swosh swosh!!!"

Arrows were like rain, and they shot Wang Guang's soldiers on the city one after another. For a moment, the sound of arrows entering the flesh and screams were endless.

"Shoot the arrows, hurry up and shoot the arrows." Wang Guang screamed when he saw this, and his heart was already cold. It seems that I, Wang Guang, have already ended here.

"Swoosh swosh swosh swosh!" The archers woke up like a dream and rushed to shoot arrows. But in their panic, many more archers were shot and killed.

This led to the ladder truck and the siege car coming to the city smoothly. The ladder was raised, while the siege car was constantly striking the city gate.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

The huge wood kept striking against the heavy city gate, causing the city to shake, as if it was an earthquake.

"Storm up, the sword and axe hand rushed forward."

Zhang Liao ordered his swordsman to rush up to climb the ladder and climb the city wall, holding a short sword or a short axe.

At the beginning of the war, Zhang Xiu's army had an overwhelming advantage.

Although these elite soldiers were damaged by rolling stones, logs, hot oil, etc. falling from the city, some elite soldiers soon climbed onto the city wall. They waved their swords and axes in their hands and fought with the spearmen, but they were also fierce and gained the upper hand.

"Kill!!!" A fierce soldier of Zhang Xiu's army killed four or five people in a row with a sabre in his hand. Although he was covered in three spears and blood was like a spring, he still fought forward and killed two or three more people. He was eventually stabbed to death by a spear soldier.

Although he died, the soldiers guarding the city were even more frightened.

What a fierce army this is.

Grand Sima, the army under the command of General Cavalry.

Behind the "Zhang" flag, Zhang Xiu looked up and said to the people around him with a smile: "Although I just said that the city can be captured at dusk, it is just a word to inspire morale, but it is impossible to imagine that it is possible..."

As he said that, Zhang Xiu said to the messenger again: "Appoint Hua Xiong, there is no need to build a camp. Tonight, we will enter the city to guard."

"promise."

The messenger turned around and went down with a look of excitement.

"This is the battlefield, this is the siege, you can take a good look." Zhang Xiu raised his head and said to the younger generations.

Zhou Yu, Zhuge Jin, Fa Zheng, Meng Da, Wu Yi, Wu Ban and others.

These people are either excited or staring, and when they fall into Zhang Xiu's eyes, they are really shining with stars. To conquer the world, the future depends on them.

"Hahahaha." Zhang Xiu laughed loudly, his laughter was bold and energetic.

...........

It took Zhang Xiu only one and a half hours to capture Wenxi City. At this moment, there was still one hour before the dusk.

The setting sun is about to end, and soldiers are constantly transporting bodies from inside at the city gate. The flags of the "Zhang" character on the city have not been removed.

However, the troops had been replaced by Zhang Xiu's soldiers. Zhang Xiu rode his horse into the city surrounded by Dian Wei and others. Taishi Ci came to Zhang Xiu with Wang Guang's head, bent down and presented his head to Zhang Xiu.
