Taishi Ci knocked once in the east and west, which seemed to be irrelevant. In fact, he did this just to distract the opponent's attention and make the opponent relax his vigilance. His goal from beginning to end was only one, and that was Ma Zhou.
If you want to defeat the Jingzhou army in front of you, you must first defeat Ma Zhou.
Ma Zhou became famous because of Hu Zui, and at the same time he was restrained by Hu Zui. He would never dare to retreat from Hu Zui lightly, otherwise his military morale would be lost.
In the eyes of Taishi Ci, Ma Zhou is simply a bright target. As long as he can get in front of Ma Zhou, Taishi Ci can easily capture and kill him even if he gives him one hand. By then, whether Ma Zhou retreats or not, he will be killed.
There is no way to escape defeat.
Finally, after several false shots, a gap appeared in the middle defense line of Ma Zhou's troops. Taishi Ci personally led more than a hundred cavalry and stormed in from the middle.
This time, Taishi Ci no longer tried lightly as before, but attacked very resolutely, breaking up Ma Zhou's defense line in one fell swoop. Taishi Ci jumped on his horse and crossed his halberd, shouted his name, and charged straight at Ma Zhou's command.
Taishi Ci came with great force, but Ma Zhou didn't even move his buttocks, and the sword across his knees was not unsheathed. Seeing that Ma Zhou was calm and steady as a rock, all the soldiers saw that Ma Zhou was calm and calm, and everyone faced the danger bravely.
, fight bravely first.
This was far beyond Tai Shici's expectation. Now he felt as if he was stuck in a quagmire. Every step forward felt extremely difficult. In just a moment, 30% to 40% of the servants who followed him into the formation had been killed or injured.
Taishi Ci looked at Ma Zhou, who was sitting calmly not far away. His eyes were wide open, and he bent his bow and arrow again, but the result was still blocked by his guard with a shield.
Taishi Ci secretly gnashed his teeth, knowing that his target, Ma Zhou, was very close to Chi Chi, but it was far out of reach for him. As if to vent his anger, he swept away the two enemy soldiers with his big halberd, and finally looked at Ma Zhou bitterly and turned the horse's head.
, broke out.
Taishi Ci's decision to retreat was very decisive, because Han Guang saw that he was surrounded and Jiangdong's army was dancing with dragon heads. This was the opportunity he had been waiting for, so he personally led 600 elite cavalry to go around from behind and attack Jiangdong's army.
flank.
If Taishi Ci had not returned in time, the consequences would have been disastrous.
Faced with such an unfavorable situation, Taishi Ci remained calm and calmly responded to the danger. While dispatching light troops to block the Jingzhou Army's cavalry, he organized manpower to resist Ma Zhou's counterattack.
Few of the light soldiers were armored. Although the people of Shanyue were vigorous and brave in fighting, they were no match for the fine cavalry of the Jingzhou Army led by Han Guang. Even though the light soldiers mainly focused on harassment and never faced a direct confrontation, the gap between the two sides was too big.
After struggling for a long time, they were still defeated and fled in all directions.
Although the light troops were defeated, they bought Taishi Ci precious time. Under his command on the frontal battlefield, they barely blocked Ma Zhou's offensive. Then Taishi Ci did not hesitate to give the order to retreat, and the rear formation changed to the front in an instant.
Formation, slowly retreated, leaving the battlefield.
Han Guang and Ma Zhou naturally did not want to let the duck they got fly away, so they each led their troops to pursue it.
However, due to Taishi Ci's personal governor's elite rearguard and desperate resistance, although the two men made some gains, they were unable to defeat Taishi Ci's tribe.
Looking at Jiangdong's army retreating into the camp, Han Guang and Ma Zhou both felt a pity. Although they killed nearly a thousand prisoners before and after this battle, this little battle achievement could not satisfy their appetites.
However, the matter has come to this, and the two of them can only return to the camp with their troops, and at the same time send people to report the victory to Liu Jing.
Taishi Ci took the initiative to support Chai Sang, but it did not affect Liu Jing, and he continued to attack Chai Sang step by step.
Han Guang and Ma Zhou were both generals under his command, and they held heavy troops. If they faced Tai Shi Ci, even if they could not win, they would not be defeated.
Things were as Liu Jing expected. When he arrived at the corner, he received good news from Han Guang and Ma Zhou. Liu Jing smiled and said to his left and right: "Ma Zijin is like an iron wall. He defeated Liu Bei and Guan Yu. Today,
He also defeated Taishi Ci's sharpness and let the world know that we, Jingchu, also have famous generals."
After chatting with the left and right for a while, Liu Jing turned his attention back to Chaisang City and saw Jingzhou Army officers and soldiers, with the help of Linchong (siege tower) and ladders, continuously pouring up to the top of Chaisang City.
The greatest value of Linchong (siege tower) is that it makes it easier to climb the city. In the past, it took countless lives to climb to the top of the city. Now, Linchong (siege tower) only needs to get close to the city wall and lower the drawbridge.
Since Linchong (siege tower) attracted the attention of most of the defenders, the ladder was no longer lost and the risk of climbing the city was greatly reduced.
The combination of the two made it no longer difficult to climb the city. In addition, the Jingzhou army had a huge numerical advantage compared to the Chaisang defenders. From the beginning, the siege firmly took the initiative.
Xu Sheng did not dare to keep any more reserve troops and devoted almost all his troops to the battle, but even so, he could only barely support himself.
Xu Sheng had given up hope of guarding Chaisang. When the Jingzhou soldiers outside the city took the captured military flags of Taishi Ci's army and showed off their martial arts skills outside the city, shouting "long live", Xu Sheng knew that Taishi Ci would probably not be able to count on him, and he was completely heartbroken.
He was so cold that he only wanted to hold on for one more day. As for surrender, he never considered it.
In the afternoon, the battle at the top of Chaisang City became more and more intense. Liu Jing secretly shook his head. Judging from the current situation, Chaisang will definitely not be captured today, but the defenders are at the end of their strength. The city will be conquered within these three to five days.
.
Liu Jingcai looked back and suddenly saw Yu Zheng leading Xi Zhen towards him. Next to Xi Zhen was a young Confucian scholar who was thin but had a serious appearance.
"General..." Xi Zhen, with his tall hat and big sleeves, came to Liu Jingrong's chariot, bowed to him, and said: "Zhen went to Hefei as an envoy and failed to convince Liu Yangzhou, so he failed the general's entrustment..."
Liu Jing shook his head and said: "Going to Hefei as an envoy is just a casual move. If it succeeds, it's good. If it doesn't, it doesn't matter. Wen Xiang doesn't need to care." Then he looked at the young Confucian scholar next to Xi Zhen and asked, "Who is this person?"
Xi Zhen introduced Liu Jing: "He is Sheng Kuang Sheng Zitong, the chief administrator of Yangzhou. He heard that the general was raising troops to attack Wu, so he abandoned his post and came to join him."
Sheng Kuang paid homage and said: "Sheng Kuang of Kuaiji, pay homage to the general."
When Liu Jing heard that Sheng Kuang was from Kuaiji and his surname was Sheng, he suddenly felt enlightened and asked Sheng Kuang, "I don't know who Sheng Kuang is from Wujun?"
Sheng Kuang couldn't help but his eyes turned red when he heard this, and he said sadly: "It's my father."
Liu Jing got down from the military chariot, took Sheng Kuang's hand and said: "It turns out that he is a sage queen who respects his father and is a famous person in the world. The Sun brothers persecuted the monarch. Everyone in the country heard about it and was indignant."
Sheng Xian once served as the governor of Wu County, and he was the parent official of Sun Ce and Sun Quan, so Liu Jing said that Sun Ce and Sun Quan persecuted the monarch. This matter caused great controversy in Jiangdong, but to say that there was indignation in the country would be a bit exaggerated.
Sheng Kuang sobbed: "The hatred for killing my father is irreconcilable! The Sun brothers invaded and occupied Jiangdong and killed without any calculation. All the people in Jiangdong hated them. They were only concerned about the cruelty of the Sun family, so they held back. Now the general has raised a righteous army to attack Sun Ni.
, the people of Jiangdong will be happy and follow it..."
