Eight hundred and fortieth chapters of the prestige
"Anyone who stands in my way will die!"
Guan Yu took the lead and charged towards the west gate of Xiangyang City, killing him fiercely.
At this time, at the west gate of Xiangyang City, Gao Shun and the trapped troops under his command were sitting in front of the city gate.
His trapped troops have passed through the gate and entered the Wengcheng.
However, the trapped camp did not rush towards the depths of the barbican city. They just lined up in front of the gate of the barbican city and blocked the passage behind them. As for the main gate of the rear barbican city, although it was above the city gate,
However, the Jinling Army had already piled up two huge rams at the city gate to block the city gate and ensure that the passage to the city gate would not be lost.
Now we are waiting for the top of the city tower to be captured by our own soldiers climbing the city.
But before that, we must first defend the gate of the West City from being taken back by the opponent.
Gao Shun knew very well that at the city gate, at most, only a few soldiers could be deployed to block it, and they could easily be pushed out by a powerful wave of enemy attacks. The advantage of the trapped camp could not be used at the narrow city gate.
come out.
Therefore, if you want to truly protect the city gate, you must take the risk and rush into the city, set up a formation in the city, and protect the city gate.
But in this way, it is equivalent to placing one's own soldiers and horses within the opponent's territory. Although the Jingzhou soldiers on the tower have no time to deal with the soldiers climbing the city, they have no time to deal with the trapped camp below, but the other Jingzhou soldiers in the Wengcheng are ambushing.
Then only one army trapped in the camp will face it alone.
Gao Shun was in the military formation, raising the big gun in his hand high and shouting: "The ambition to trap the enemy!"
"Death or life!" The voices of the seven hundred soldiers trapped in the camp rose in unison, which could be said to be loud and clear.
Guan Yu galloped up, rushing towards the trapped camp first.
According to his idea, with his own might and the help of galloping horses, he wanted to open a gap in the trapped camp, and then let the cavalry behind him break through their protection and let out the city gate. It can be said that
It's within reach.
But he was really wrong.
The great thing about being trapped in the camp is that you can defeat cavalry with foot, and you are not afraid of any individual's bravery.
Not to mention Guan Yu, even if Lu Bu came to capture the camp with Fang Tian Hua Ji, the result would be doomed to suffer.
Seeing that Guan Yu was about to gallop in front of the trapped camp, Gao Shun shouted, but he saw the soldiers in the front row of the trapped camp raised their spears high and squatted down together, their sharp spears
Taking aim at the general on the horse, every soldier's eyes flashed with cold fighting intent.
The reason why the cavalry is called the tank of the cold weapon era is because of its impact and deterrence.
As far as human psychology and physiology are concerned, when faced with the impact of cavalry, most people will subconsciously choose to dodge to the side. This is a reaction and feeling that people have, and it has nothing to do with whether they are brave or not.
Just like when a person is suddenly faced with a fist being thrown in front of his eyes, his first instinct must be to blink.
But the soldiers trapped in the camp were very calm. They showed no sign of cowardice, and did not even think of stepping aside.
Seeing Guan Yu rushing towards them, the soldiers who were trapped in the camp facing him all stabbed him with their spears, and several soldiers stabbed his horses in unison.
"war!"
After a loud shout, blood splattered.
Among the blood, there were two soldiers who were trapped in the camp, as well as those of the war horse that Guan Yu sat on.
Guan Yu's Green Dragon Sword slashed and killed two soldiers trapped in the camp, but it did not achieve the effect he wanted. The army formation in the trapped camp was not rushed away, but he lost his own horse.
The war horse raised its hoof and flew Guan Yu backward.
Guan Yu's huge body was lifted up in the air, and he should have landed heavily, but after all, he was different from ordinary people. He twisted his body in mid-air, punched the ground with the handle of the Qinglong Sword, and forcefully reversed the angle of his body.
, let yourself fall to the ground in a standing position.
Of course, doing this looks really cool, but it also creates troubles later on.
"Click~!"
There was a slight crisp sound, and Guan Yu couldn't help but frown.
Damn... is this twisted to the waist?
Guan Yu only twisted his waist, but the cavalry following him did not have such good luck.
"war!"
"kill!"
"prick!"
With slogans one after another, the soldiers in the trapped camp dismounted the enemy's war horses one by one. The horses kept falling down, or rushed into the troops trapped in the camp, splashing a curtain of blood.
The screams of the war horses and the painful howls of the cavalry echoed throughout the barbican city, making people tremble with fear.
Of course, after receiving this wave of impact, the losses in the trapped camp were not small, but the falling of their companions to the ground seemed to be nothing at all to the sergeants in the trapped camp. The armor on their bodies was full of blood, but they
Without realizing it, he still faced the front coldly, guarding the city gate behind him.
It was only then that Guan Yu understood how difficult this elite infantry blocking the city gate was.
He took a deep breath, turned around and shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Where is the crossbow camp!"
Following Guan Yu's order, the crossbowmen of the Jingzhou Army ran out from the gate between Wengcheng and Qiancheng. They aimed at the soldiers trapped in the camp, raised their hands and fired a burst of fire.
"Stand up your shield!"
The soldiers holding guns in the trapped camp retreated back, and were replaced by nobles from the trapped camp holding large shields. They stood on the ground with their large shields, forming a turtle shell formation to block the opponent's arrow rain.
Even though arrows penetrated through the gaps between the shields and injured the soldiers trapped in the camp, there was no sign of any timidity among the soldiers.
They just quietly guarded their position and did not let the enemy take a step beyond their reach.
Facing such ferocious heavy infantry, the Jingzhou army in Wengcheng became frightened.
…
At the same time, more and more soldiers and generals from Jinling City boarded the city. They gradually encroached on the favorable terrain of the Jingzhou Army in Xiangyang City, and moved towards the inner city behind Wengcheng bit by bit.
Push the head away.
Two generals, Gan Ning and Zhou Tai, also joined Xu Chu's battle group against Zhang Fei and Wei Yan.
Gan Ning and Zhou Tai were originally water thieves and were proficient in foot combat. They were able to deal with such a battle situation more smoothly than fighting on the spot.
The two cooperated with Xu Chu and attacked back and forth, forcing Zhang Fei and Wei Yan to retreat repeatedly. The top of the Wengcheng at the west gate of Xiangyang City was now as if it had been lost.
Wei Yan was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He fought hard to meet the enemy and said to Zhang Fei: "General Zhang, the enemy army is too brave. We can't continue like this. We should find the inner city quickly!"
"Nonsense!" Zhang Fei fought off Zhou Tai's attack with a brave sword, and said angrily: "Xiangyang City is so important, not even an inch of land can be lost. Jinling Dog wants to occupy my land, what a dream..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw Gan Ning take out a flying knife from his arms, and when Zhang Fei wasn't paying attention, he threw it at him.
Because Zhang Fei was temporarily separated and did not avoid it, Gan Ning hit him in the shoulder.
"You thief! How dare you sneak attack me?" Zhang Fei roared angrily.
Wei Yan did not dare to neglect, and while commanding the soldiers behind him to step forward to resist, he protected Zhang Fei and retreated towards the inner city wall.
