In the backyard of the county mansion, Jia Xu and Huang Zu were sitting opposite each other.
Huang Zu said with a smile on his face: "Military advisor, we have just received the news that Sun Jian's general Cheng Pu has died of illness. The Wu army camp outside the city has been completely deserted, and the atmosphere is solemn and solemn. It is said that Cheng Pu was burned because he was dripped with excrement.
The skin was damaged, and the continuous friction from the armor caused the condition to worsen and lead to death."
Jia Xu glanced at Huang Zu and said calmly: "Prefect Huang, I have learned about Cheng Pu's death. What does Prefect Huang have to do with me?"
Huang Zu smiled and said: "Military advisor, I'm worried that Sun Jian will jump over the wall in a hurry."
Jia Xu sneered and said: "A dog is anxious to jump over the wall? The wall is ten feet high, can a dog jump ten feet in one leap? I have clearly told you to guard Jiangxia, and the lord is already on the way and will soon arrive in Jiangxia. The lord has arrived with his army, and the crisis has begun.
Explanation, you don’t have to worry about your safety. Besides, if the city is destroyed, I will have to die with you. Do you think I can make fun of my own life?"
"No, no!"
Huang Zu spoke several times with a bright smile on his face. He also felt relieved after hearing Jia Xu's last words. Jia Xu was standing here, so he didn't have to worry.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"
The sound of war drums suddenly sounded.
Immediately, the passionate horn sound also spread quickly.
Jia Xu and Huang Zu stood up at the same time, both looking in the direction of the city tower. Jia Xu changed color slightly, then regained his composure, and said in a deep voice: "Prefect Huang, this is Sun Jian's last counterattack. We held it, you have done a great job."
One thing. If you can't defend it, you should know the consequences. Let's go and go to the tower immediately to urge the soldiers to defend the city."
The two of them left the county mansion and went straight to the city tower.
Outside the city, the Wu army had already begun to attack the city.
This time, the Wu army held a small round shield in their hands, which could not only prevent bows and arrows from shooting, but also hold it on their heads to prevent lime from spilling. This was enough to show Sun Jian's determination to attack the city.
Originally, Sun Jian adopted the advice of Huang Gai and others and prepared to wait for Wang Can to lead the army to fight with him.
Cheng Pu's sudden death deeply affected Sun Jian.
Ever since Sun Jian led his army to confront Wang Can, he has always been passive. Not only that, his old brother Han Dang was killed, his adviser Zhuge Jin was captured, the heroic general Quan Rou was also killed by Gan Ning, and Cheng Pu because
Jia Xu died of illness. All this stimulated the nearly fifty-year-old tiger, and Sun Jian was inspired to attack the city brazenly.
Sun Jian not only wanted to destroy the city, but also wanted to use Jia Xu's head as a memorial to Cheng Pu.
When Jia Xu and Huang Zu rushed to the tower, the two sides had already started fighting.
Last time, Jia Xu left a deep impression on the Wu soldiers, which made them fearful. This time, these Wu soldiers seemed to have a tragic and fearless momentum, and they all charged desperately.
One by one, the soldiers climbed up the tower and began to charge.
The situation of the siege was still under the control of Jia Xu and Huang Zu, and there were no major deviations.
"boom!!"
Under the tower, there were bursts of roaring sounds.
Seeing the difficulty of attacking the city, Sun Jian focused his attack on the city gate. He ordered the craftsmen in the army to cut down trees overnight, felling more than ten century-old trees, repaired the big trees, wrapped them with iron sheets, and made
It became a ramming car and kept hitting the city gate. Because the ramming car was very big and moved slowly, many soldiers on both sides were shot to death by bows and arrows shot from the city towers.
However, the soldiers rushed forward desperately and pushed the crashed car forward.
The car crashed into the city gate, causing the gate to collapse.
Jia Xu stared at the soldiers attacking the city, and then at Sun Jian outside the city, his eyes flashing with thought. He loudly ordered: "Zhou Tai, have the soldiers prepare to pour boiling oil on the collision car hitting the city gate, and then use
The rocket ignited to prevent the door from being hit." After Zhou Tai received the order, he immediately carried out the order.
Huang Zu was also very busy, defending the city according to the gourd's instructions.
However, this time it is not as fresh as the last time, and its lethality is also smaller.
"Crash!!!"
Under the tower, golden boiling oil poured down with hot steam, pouring on the collision car and on the surrounding soldiers. The scorching hot oil splashed on the skin, immediately causing blisters, and the boiling oil made the trees on the collision car
They were all scorched. Several rockets shot down and immediately ignited the crash, turning the crash into a sea of flames in an instant.
Immediately after one car crashed, another crashed car rushed up.
It seems that Sun Jian expected such a situation.
Wave after wave of soldiers kept hitting the city gate with ramming cars. With the continuous collision, the soldiers guarding the city gate were knocked to the ground and were seriously injured.
“Crack!!Crack!!”
The door bolt of the gate is broken, and the city gate has begun to shake and is about to collapse.
"boom!!!!!"
In the end, the city gate failed to withstand the impact and was knocked open. Even so, piles of Wu soldiers had fallen outside the city gate, and they were all shot.
"Kill, kill in!"
The soldiers of the Wu army had high morale, shouting loudly, and their faces were filled with excitement.
Their desperate attack finally broke through the gates of Jiangxia City and gave them the opportunity to slaughter Huang Zu.
Sun Jian raised the ancient ingot sword in his hand and shouted: "My sons, kill me, rush into Jiangxia, capture Jia Xu alive, make him a marquis, reward you with a thousand gold coins, and be promoted to three levels until he is a general; whoever kills Jia Xu,
He was granted the title of Marquis and promoted to three levels until he became a general." Relatively speaking, Sun Jian hoped to capture Jia Xu alive, so that he could pour out the hatred in his heart.
"drive!!"
Taishi Ci gave a low shout, then rode his horse and raised his spear to kill into the city.
Sun Ce did the same and rushed forward immediately.
Immediately afterwards, Huang Gai, Zu Mao and others also began to charge.
The generals under Sun Jian's command have already rode into the city. Some are preparing to avenge Cheng Pu, and some are preparing to seize the credit and seize Jia Xu.
Lu Su stood on horseback next to Sun Jian and whispered: "My Lord, even though we defeated Jiangxia, we and the soldiers defending the city were both injured. When Wang Can's army arrives, our army will also be unable to defend Jiangxia and can only retreat. Even if
Even if you win the battle, it is not considered a victory. Please think twice before taking action, my lord."
Zhou Yu nodded slightly and agreed with Lu Su's view.
This attack on the city obviously killed a thousand enemies, but suffered 800 losses.
Even if the city is destroyed, it is built with corpses and bones.
Sun Jian looked up at the sky and said in a deep voice: "Zijing, you should understand my character. Being able to occupy the position of King of Wu is just a coincidence, and I am not suitable to be a king. However, my character is like this, and I am also
I don’t want to change anymore. People have killed my old brothers and chopped off my arms. I still have to go back for the sake of the overall situation. What kind of logic is this? It’s nonsense. Whoever hits me, I have to fight back. This
That’s the last word.”
Lu Su smiled bitterly, feeling helpless.
However, Lu Su could not stop the fighting between the two sides, especially since the Wu army had already begun to enter the city.
On the city tower, Huang Zu looked anxious.
Zhou Tai stood beside Jia Xu, guarding Jia Xu's safety.
Huang Zu said worriedly: "Commander, look at it, I said Jiangxia is unreliable, and now it has been broken by the Wu army. When the Wu army enters the city, it will be difficult for our army to gain a foothold in Jiangxia. Let's leave quickly. If you are late, it will be too late."
Jia Xu's cheeks turned cold and he said with a smile: "Prefect Huang, it's raining."
Huang Zu rolled his eyes at Jia Xu and said, "Military advisor, what time has it been? You still have some leisure time."
But Jia Xu continued: "It's raining, and the lord is here."
