Huge boulders the size of millstones came one after another and violently hit the southeast corner of Xiaopei's city wall. The already weak southeast corner was almost crumbling under the crazy ravages of Cao's army's trebuchets, and there was a possibility of collapse at any time.
Thousands of the most elite soldiers of Cao's army have crowded outside the southeast corner. With the protection of shields, they are slowly approaching the weak areas of the city wall. With yesterday's experience, it is difficult for the defender's archers to cause too much damage to Cao's infantry. In terms of damage, only sporadic arrows penetrated the protection of shields and armor, causing limited damage.
In Xiaopei City, Zhang Fan gathered all the defenders that could be gathered. Two thousand soldiers formed a semicircle around the weak spot that was about to collapse. The cold steel knife had been unsheathed, and the sharp spear was raised forward. , towering like a forest, the air is filled with suffocating depression.
Accompanied by the continuous banging sound, the city wall in front was trembling slightly. Countless small cracks had covered the wall and spread in all directions like spider threads. From time to time, large chunks of broken soil fell off the wall. When they came down, they fell to the ground with a "crash", and the city wall was about to collapse, but the eyes of the defenders showed nervous excitement.
In Cao Jun's rear formation, more than 30 soldiers struggled to pull the rope in their hands and pulled down the proximal end of the trebuchet's swing arm. With the support of the rotating shaft, the swing arm, which was several feet long, rebounded violently. A circular arc was drawn in the air, and when it reached the top, it was caught by a pile, causing a loud noise.
The boulder placed at the far end of the swing arm roared out under the action of huge inertia. The boulder rolled over the battlefield and fell viciously towards the weak section in the southeast corner of Xiaopei City.
"boom!"
With a loud noise, the boulder finally broke through the weak wall of Xiaopei City.
"Wow~~"
Amidst the deafening noise, a section of the city wall in the southeast corner collapsed, forming a large gap dozens of paces wide. Dozens of defenders guarding the city tower didn't even have time to let out a scream. The rubble and mud rolled down, and he was immediately buried alive in the smoke and dust flying all over the sky.
"kill!"
"Kill!"
"Come with me!"
"Kill me!"
Li Dian, Yue Jin, Yu Jin, Xia Houlian, Xia Houzhong, Cao Shao, Cao Shao, Cao Bin and other generals simultaneously drew their weapons forward with all their strength. Thousands of Cao Jun's elite soldiers shouted wildly, like a group of people who had fired. The wild wolf roared and rushed towards the gap. Only sporadic arrows shot down from the towers at both ends of the gap, but it was not enough to stop the surging Cao soldiers.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
Thousands of elite soldiers of Cao's army surged in like a flood that burst a dike. In an instant, they rushed into the smoke and dust flying all over the sky. Everything was obscured by the billowing smoke and nothing could be seen.
Inside Xiaopei City.
Zhang Fan held a shield in his left hand, raised his right arm, and pulled a short spear forward with force. In an instant, the two thousand defenders standing behind Zhang Fan roared crazily. Before the flying dust and gravel dissipated, It rushed up like a tide and rushed into the billowing smoke and dust. The soldiers screamed and roared hysterically, and their expressions were full of determination that they would never return, that they would die or not live.
"There is no way out!"
"The general said that if Xiaopei City is captured, not only will they be beheaded by the enemy, but even their children will not be spared, and all the women will become prostitutes!"
"For the sake of my son, and for the continuation of the bloodline, no matter how weak a coward is, he will become brave and fearless!"
"kill!"
Zhang Fan held a huge shield and rushed to the gap first. He couldn't see clearly in the confusing smoke and dust, and actually collided head-on with two Cao Jun soldiers who were rushing towards him. With a loud bang, the two unlucky Cao Jun soldiers were instantly killed. He flew up upside down, and when he fell down again, he was stabbed to death by the guns raised high by his own people.
"Kill, kill, kill~~"
The two surging armies finally collided fiercely in the gap. In an instant, soul-shaking screams and killing sounds resounded through the sky, spears stabbing, machetes chopping, and sharp hand axes. Flying in the sky, icy-cold spears roared and fell, and heavy giant shields collided wildly.
When the howling wind finally blew away the confusing smoke and dust, revealing the ferocious killing field at the gap, the soldiers of the two armies were already tightly entangled together, fighting each other continuously, and had broken through each other's defense line. Target.
Amidst the deafening sound of killing, Cao Jun and the defenders fell down one by one like straw, but the soldiers who followed were still rushing forward without fear of death, endlessly filling the gap. There is no more crazy strangulation than this in the gap left by the fall of a companion.
Here, on this battlefield, human life is even more fragile than a candle in the wind. Every moment, every breath, someone falls down wailing, and someone dies in pain. This is a battlefield, a cruel battlefield!
“Bang bang bang~~”
Zhang Fan wildly waved the giant shield in his hand, violently charging into the ant-like dense crowd of Cao soldiers in front. On such a crowded battlefield, no matter how sharp the weapon was, it was no longer enough. Even if you could stab the enemy to death, you would not be able to use it. Unable to escape being hacked to death by the enemy's sword, the shield, a purely defensive weapon, has become the sharpest weapon.
Three more unlucky soldiers from Cao's army wailed and flew backwards, and a thunderous shout suddenly sounded from Cao's army: "Get out of the way, let someone take care of him!" This shout actually suppressed the noisy roar. battlefield.
The overcrowded soldiers of Cao's army barely made way for one person to pass. Where the figure disappeared, a military general wearing heavy armor, slender figure, and ferocious face stepped forward. This man was clearly one of the eight fierce generals under Cao Ren's command. 1. Leopard Xia Houzhong.
"Kill!" Xia Houzhong shouted and slashed the air with the long knife in his hand.
Zhang Fan groaned and raised his shield to fight. With a loud bang, the giant shield in Zhang Fan's hand was split by Xia Houzhong's long knife. The long knife was so powerful that it cut into Zhang Fan's body. Fan's left shoulder was several inches deep, almost completely removing Zhang Fan's left shoulder.
"Ah~~!!!" Zhang Fan screamed miserably, and his violent eyes instantly turned blood red, almost spilling blood.
"Huh?" Xia Houzhong pulled his long knife vigorously, only to find that the long knife was stuck in Zhang Fan's shoulder blade, and no matter how he pulled it out, it would not move at all.
"I'm going to kill you!" Zhang Fan said angrily.
Zhang Fan let out a long roar, and stabbed fiercely with the short spear in his right hand. Xia Houzhong was unable to dodge for a moment, and Zhang Fan's short spear pierced his lower abdomen in an instant. When the bone-eroding ice cold hit him from the abdomen, Xia Houzhong knew where he was. Destiny has been decided, and there is a high probability that today one will die in battle in Xiaopei City.
Zhang Fan raised his leg and kicked Xia Houzhong just in time. Xia Houzhong took a few steps back and fell on his back with a "plop". He was already dead. At this moment, another explosive roar sounded, and another person The general came out from the crowd and shouted angrily: "What a thief, give back my brother's life!" This man was none other than one of Cao Ren's eight fierce generals, the Blue-Eyed Tiger Xia Houlian.
