Chapter two hundred and thirty seventh: Siege from all sides
As time goes by, the sunset gradually begins to fall. A hundred miles north of Guangzong's north gate was a dark armor. The leader was a cold-faced man, with big eyes and a black war horse sitting down.
On the side of the horse, there was a silver-white handrail. Under the sunset, you could see the chill on the head of the gun, which was slowly rising.
"The eldest son, you are all ready."
A big man in armor came to the cold-faced man and reported.
"Well, how many hours are there before Renye?"
Sun Zhi looked at the big man and asked slowly.
"Report to the eldest son, it's still two hours before nightfall."
The man replied in an echo.
"Well, what news is coming from General Lu Zhi."
Sun Zhi asked again, but the Han shook his head at this time, and the Han's actions were also in Sun Zhi's eyes.
Seeing this, Sun Zhi said with a grim face: "No, that's all, it's better to follow the original plan."
Now Sun Zhi is no longer the Sun Zhi of the past. Now he feels that he is really helpless before. I am not the one who is worried about the most during his lifetime, rather than his own self-righteous and unscrupulous second brother.
Now that I think about it, Sun Zhi felt that there was still a lot of things he had learned from Sun Yun. Sometimes, he really had to think more about it, otherwise... he would be ashamed of his trust in his father.
After thinking for a while, Sun Zhi looked at the big man and said, "Guan Sheng, you lead the Yellow Turban Army who has turned against each other to prepare. When I lead the Yanmen Army to attack Ximen himself, you will attack the East Gate."
As for what he said in his heart, Sun Zhi naturally knew that attacking the East Gate was indeed a good way, but in Sun Zhi's view, it would be better to use himself as bait to attack the West Gate to let the other gates provide support, so that the East Gate would definitely not leave many troops.
At that time, the East Gate will be empty. These are what Sun Zhi thought of when he saw the letter. If Sun Yun or Sun Xiong is here, one person might say: Big Brother, you are enlightened. The other person might say: Zhier, you have finally changed.
However, the two people who can say these words are not by their side.
"Receive the order."
Guan Sheng nodded and bowed proudly.
After saying that, he went back to the troops he led and started heading towards the east gate.
Seeing that Guan Sheng had already led his army away, Sun Zhi then looked at Guangzong City a hundred miles away. Now he was looking at Guangzong City here, and he still couldn't see clearly, let alone whether the defenders in Guangzong City would see him and others.
So, Sun Zhi stood here and watched with fearlessness, because the sunset gradually set and the night slowly shone with darkness in the sky.
Guangzong City could be seen vaguely seeing torches shining around, and the defense was not particularly empty, which made Sun Zhi feel a little strange. However, Xi Zhong did not say that the attack on Guangzong City was a night attack, but a fierce attack.
Therefore, Sun Zhi didn't care why Guangzongcheng was suddenly so cautious.
"The eldest son, General Gao Su, General Zhang Liao sent me to tell you that everything is ready."
Just when Sun Zhi was about to rest first, a soldier ran from afar, wearing the armor of the Yanmen Army and riding a war horse.
Just as soon as they arrived, the soldiers immediately spoke up for reports.
After listening,
Then Sun Zhi said, "I understand, just let Gao Su and Zhang Liao, everything depends on my signal."
"Affect the order."
After everything was done, Sun Zhi slowly leaned on his horse and sat down. It was still two hours before nightfall, and two hours were only time to enter the night. All he had to do was to take advantage of the darkness and surprise it.
Therefore, just now, Sun Zhi asked all the soldiers of the Yanmen Army to rest on the spot, and just waited for the time to attack the city together.
...
Unlike Sun Zhi's leisure, Shi Le seriously commanded the Yellow Turban Army to start setting up defenses. He knew the Han army's plan, and Shi Le couldn't feel at all.
After all, it seems that there is another conspiracy this time, but it cannot be said to be a conspiracy but an open conspiracy. As for why, Shi Le would never have thought that Sun Jian could go north, so how could the Yanmen Army, which is the North Gate, is Youzhou, not betrayed?
Shi Le has never seen the strength of the Yanmen Army, but the Yanmen Army has many good generals. If we only have the strength, the troops he commands may be able to surpass any army, but Shi Le can't take any action in terms of generals.
This is why Shi Le didn't feel any relaxed when he knew the Han army's plan.
"Ship Qu has already arranged it."
A Yellow Turban general hurried to Shi Le to report.
"Oh? I've been arranged, so I started to arrange it here."
When Shi Le heard that he had already arranged the arrangement, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. In Shi Le's opinion, if he did not arrange the arrangement there, he would definitely be regarded as a breakthrough by the Han army.
Now that Shi Le has felt relieved after hearing that everything is arranged according to what he wants.
As time goes by, the sky is also dyed black as the night falls.
If we didn't use a torch to shine, we might not even be able to see the outline of the person. Even Shi Le could feel that God must be against him, but there was no moonlight at this time.
As night came, Lu Zhi directly brought nearly 40,000 troops out of the camp.
There were 40,000 troops, Lu Zhi was in charge of the central army, Yang Lu and Sun Lie were in front as vanguards, and as for the rear army, there were also Han generals appointed by Lu Zhi himself as commanders of the rear army.
One is one of the three veterans at the end of the Han Dynasty, the other is Lu Junyi, who ranked first in the Water Margin Water Liangshan, and the other is Sun Xiong's third descendant Sun Lie. If you really follow the past, anyone who sees this lineup will be afraid.
Just as Lu Zhi was out of the camp, Sun Jian's army, who was in charge of the South Gate, also began to advance. However, just as Sun Jian's army was about to attack the South Gate, Shu Ran didn't know that a soldier was approaching quietly behind him.
If Sun Jian knew that he had been a hundred miles away from the southern gate of Guangzong, and there was a soldier nearby fifty miles away.
If this army was Shi Hu, which was the 20,000 Yellow Turban Army distributed by Yuwen Yu, then Sun Jian would definitely look very good.
Although Sun Jian is now responsible for the attack at the South Gate, his troops are actually the rarest of all reinforcements.
There were only less than 8,000 people. In that battle, only 8,000 people came out alive, which shows how tragic Sun Jianjun was.
Lu Zhi and Sun Jian attacked at the same time, which also caused the West Gate and South Gate, which were responsible for the defense of Guangzong City, to panic at the same time.
Under the cover of the night, a fierce attack was suddenly launched, and the west gate still attacked the city with 40,000 people, although only Sun Jianjun had only eight thousand people in the south gate.
People, but because of the small number of people, they are still hidden.
Just a sudden attack caught Guangzong's defenders off guard.
When he learned that both the West Gate and the South Gate were attacked, Shi Le, who had been staying at the East Gate, began to smile.
If Lu Zhi saw Shi Le’s smile here at this time, he would definitely be frightened.
"Occurrence! Take the head of Ximen."
Lu Zhi drew his sword in the central army and shouted angrily, his mood that he had been suppressing in the past few days was liberated.
Now, under Lu Zhi's angrily shout, the Han army led by Lu Zhi also began to attack the West Gate violently, not only setting up a ladder, but also taking out the siege ram for the siege gate.
As for cloud ladders, Sun Lie and Yang Lu are indeed very powerful in martial arts. Just one arrival of the front army, Sun Lie and Yang Lu arrived on the top of the city.
Now Sun Lie is not alone, but Yang Lu is by his side.
The halberd and gun were launched at the same time, which also made the defenders of the West Gate extremely tragic.
As the defense line at the West Gate began to collapse, the Han army behind them also climbed the city wall without any obstacles.
It was just the first attack that Ximen had mostly fallen into Lu Zhi's hands.
"Report to the general that under the leadership of Lord Sun Lie and Lord Yang Lu, the city gate has been occupied, and the west gate has also been broken."
"Very good." After hearing the soldiers' reports, Lu Zhi even shouted with his beard. This scene has not been seen for a long time, and now it can finally be broken.
However, compared to Ximen's smooth sailing, Sun Jian, who was in charge of the South Gate, was not as relaxed as Ximen. Sun Jian, who had weak troops, was as if he was hitting a wall when attacking the South Gate, and had no inch of a move.
Even Sun Ce and Sun Jian are difficult to attack the city in terms of martial arts.
Seeing the defense of the South Gate so strongly, Sun Jian let out a cold sweat without hesitation and thought to himself: "This guardian of the South Gate is really difficult to deal with."
Although Sun Jian also had few troops, there were indeed Yellow Turban generals who were well-managed in the defenders at the South Gate.
This is also the reason why Sun Jian has no instability, but if Sun Jian knew that Shi Le had known all this long ago and arranged it in advance, it would be a different matter.
As Sun Jian and Lu Zhi launched an attack together, the North Gate army was slow to come.
After waiting for a while, an army in dark armor slowly arrived from a distance.
Sun Zhi also started to move after Lu Zhi and Sun Jian.
Shi Le, who was in charge of the defense of the North Gate, dared not look down on him at all this time, because in his eyes, the Yanmen Army poses the greatest threat.
Now that I saw it with my own eyes, Shi Le sighed without hesitation.
After Sun Zhi's Yanmen Army arrived within fifty meters of Guangzong City, Shi Le also began to order the archers who had already prepared to shoot arrows.
The rain of arrows slowly fell into the Yanmen Army like drizzle.
Seeing the counterattack, Sun Zhi quickly waved his hand and said, "Protect the Yunti troops immediately, and we will strive to attack the city. As long as we reach the city, we will win."
Sun Zhi's words also helped to encourage morale. Soon the panic of the Yanmen Army disappeared, and then the killing aura of the Yanmen Army soldiers was spread out.
"What a Yanmen Army."
