This day was an extremely long one for the defenders in the city. They were worried about the Shu army attacking the city every moment, and they felt heavy pressure in their hearts. They felt like they were stuck in a quagmire. The more they struggled, the deeper they fell. However,
, the Shu army stationed outside the city was extremely relaxed and rested happily without any pressure.
In the evening, Xu Shu, Zhou Tai and Zhu Huan came to the gate of the camp and waited quietly.
After about a quarter of an hour, a black line appeared in the distance.
The black line is getting thicker and thicker, and it is quickly approaching the Shu army camp. As the distance gets closer, several war horses can be clearly seen rushing at the front, galloping towards the camp. The people on the horses are impressively...
Gan Ning, Tai Shi Ci, Huang Xu, Gao Shun, Xu Rong and other military generals. After they entered Qingzhou, they rushed over with their troops at full speed.
Arriving at the gate of the camp, Gan Ning and others got off their horses and saluted Xu Shu with clasped fists and salutes from a distance.
Zhou Tai shouted excitedly: "Lao Gan, Zi Yi, I miss you so much." Gan Ning and Tai Shi Ci smiled at each other, walked to Zhou Tai's side, opened their arms, and gave Zhou Tai a fierce bear hug.
Xu Shu welcomed the army into the military camp and then arranged the army.
In the main camp of the Chinese army, Xu Shu, Pang Tong, Li Ru, Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, Tai Shi Ci, Huang Xu and others gathered together.
Gan Ning asked directly: "Yuanzhi, the army is stationed outside the city. How do you plan to break the city?"
Xu Shu immediately told the strategy that he had planned. Gan Ning burst out laughing after hearing this, with excitement on his face. As long as Cao Ang and Xia Houyuan could be eliminated quickly, he could go north to Yecheng.
Li Ru's eyes flickered and he said in a deep voice: "If Linzi is defeated, there will be a huge benefit."
"What's the benefit?" Gan Ning asked immediately.
Li Ru said: "When Cao Ang left Yecheng, he not only brought out Cao's family members, but also brought the family members of many civil servants and generals in the court to Linzi. Once we attack the city, we can control Cao's family members, as well as
Controlling the family members of the ministers of the State of Wei. When we go north to Yecheng, we can also help your majesty break the city."
When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up.
…
Linzi, governor's office.
News of the arrival of Gan Ning's army reached the city immediately. Cao Ang summoned Zang Ba and Xia Houyuan to discuss matters. The three of them were worried and looked very worried.
Cao Ang said: "Gan Ning has led his army to attack. Linzi City can no longer be defended. What do you think we should do?"
Zang Ba rolled his eyes and said: "Your Highness, the last general believes that Linzi should be evacuated immediately."
Xia Houyuan sat quietly and said nothing.
Cao Ang shook his head and said: "When we left Yecheng, we already evacuated. Now we are evacuating Linzi, where should we evacuate? Qingzhou has been captured, and we cannot stand in Qingzhou. Most of Jizhou has also been captured, especially
The capital of the country, Yecheng, has been trapped by Wang Can's army, and there is no way to retreat."
Cao Ang's eyes were dull and he looked listless.
Xia Houyuan said: "Your Highness, since there is no way to retreat, then we must fight to the end."
This night was very shocking to both Cao Ang and the wealthy gentry in the city. However, Cao Ang became more and more worried, while the wealthy gentry in the city became more and more excited. Because Gan Ning led his army to capture Linzi City.
It was a sure thing. They helped the Shu army enter the city, which was enough to protect their family from being affected.
Time gradually passed, and when a touch of fish belly white appeared on the horizon, it began to light up.
"Boom! Boom!!"
The sound of war drums came from the distant horizon and entered the city. The rumbling drums came out in waves, like a sledgehammer hitting the hearts of all the soldiers defending the city, making everyone tense.
Cao Ang, Xia Houyuan, and Zang Ba stood on the tower with serious expressions on their helmets, looking at the approaching army outside the city.
"Kill! Kill!!"
Screams came one after another from outside the city, the sound shook the heaven and the earth.
After a while, the Shu army approached the city, and then immediately launched an attack. Cao Ang was also fully prepared and directly ordered the archers on the tower to shoot arrows outside the city. Bows and arrows, dense as rain, were shot out at the Shu soldiers. At this time,
The Shu army at the front outside the city actually took out their shields and kept approaching with their shields on their heads.
Even if they threw boulders from the city tower and shot bows and arrows, they could not stop the Shu army from attacking the city.
"Pah! Pah!"
Aerial ladders were set up on the city wall, and the Shu army began to climb up the city tower. The Shu army continued to attack, and the defenders on the city tower also tried their best to defend the city.
The battle intensified and became extremely cruel.
Under the city tower, the number of dead and injured soldiers gradually increased.
Gan Ning looked at Xu Shu and asked: "Yuan Zhi, the wealthy gentry in the city have agreed to open the city gate and welcome us into the city. Why has there been no movement yet? Maybe they have been discovered."
Xu Shu said: "Wait a moment, don't be impatient."
Having said that, Gan Ning still couldn't wait. Not only Gan Ning, but Zhou Tai, Tai Shi Ci, Huang Xu and others were also waiting for the city gate to open and rush into the city.
"The city gate is open!"
Suddenly, a hysterical roar sounded.
"drive!!"
Gan Ning roared and rushed out as fast as an arrow. He had prepared early, and when he heard the roar, he reflexively rushed out and shouted: "The city gate is open, kill!"
!" Immediately afterwards, Tai Shi Ci, Huang Xu, and Zhou Tai also launched a charge and rushed into the city.
Before a few generals, the attacking soldiers under the tower had already begun to pour into the city.
This situation shocked Cao Ang and Xia Houyuan on the tower.
When the specific news reached the city tower, Cao Ang was already stunned. The wealthy gentry had agreed to help defend the city just the day before, but now they suddenly changed their minds and went to help the Shu army open the city gate. What on earth was going on? Cao Ang's legs went weak.
, fell to the ground, muttering to himself: "How could this happen?"
Although Xia Houyuan was surprised, he did not panic. He stretched out his hand to grab Cao Ang and said, "Let's break out immediately!" Zang Ba followed the two men and led the soldiers towards the bottom of the city tower.
The three of them got off the tower and were surrounded again.
The private soldiers of the wealthy gentry not only controlled the city gate, but also surrounded Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ang and Zang Ba, preventing the three from leaving. Zang Ba was so angry that he blushed and charged with a big gun. Xiahou Yuan also raised a gun.
Fighting, two people with two guns, quickly cut a bloody path.
Cao Ang also quickly adjusted and commanded the soldiers to break out.
The three of them cooperated with each other. Although the big family had many private soldiers, they still could not stop them.
"Xia Houyuan, Navy Commander Gan Ning is here!"
Just as Xia Houyuan and Zang Ba broke through the defense line, Gan Ning came over with the Hengjiang knife. Zang Ba said without hesitation: "The general is going to stop Gan Ning. You must retreat quickly." After that, Zang Ba raised his gun.
He faced Gan Ning and shouted: "Gan Ning, Zang Ba is here." In a flash, Zang Ba blocked Gan Ning and delayed Xiahou Yuan's time.
Xia Houyuan sighed in his heart, but could not stop and could only keep running forward.
"Xia Houyuan, Taishi Ci is coming, where can I escape?"
Taishi Ci came out again and blocked Xiahouyuan's way. This time, Xiahouyuan had no one around him who could stop Taishici, so he could only face the enemy by himself.
