"Capture Cao Xiaoda alive!" More arrows came with roars.
Although I don’t know why the enemy suddenly appeared here, you must know that this is the core area of Xiangyang City Defense, and there are layers of soldiers patrolling and guarding the periphery. However, it is naturally too late to consider this problem now. What should be considered is how to solve it.
The enemy, Cao Xiaoda, immediately pushed away the bodyguard pressing on him and drew out his saber:
"Quick, get ready for battle!"
Arrows whizzed past his head, and several generals from the Northern Zhou Dynasty were hit by arrows and fell. It was obvious that the enemy's attack was very accurate.
This is the government office of Xiangyang City, and it is also the general station. At this time, four to five hundred soldiers and more generals have gathered in the open space in front of the gate. The sudden attack undoubtedly disrupted everything. Almost
All the generals were subconsciously calling out to the soldiers under their command, but this also exposed them to the Bashu crossbowmen.
One arrow after another unceremoniously penetrated into their chests, which finally caused the scene that was still barely under control to fall into uncontrollable chaos. Cao Xiaoda's futile shouts were soon drowned in the killing sounds and the panic of the Northern Zhou soldiers.
among.
After the arrows passed, the Bashu army quickly came over and moved forward quickly along the streets. Although their number was small, the momentum of their charge was not weak at all, and they quickly cut through the almost ineffective peripheral defense line of the Northern Zhou army.
, and pounced directly towards Cao Xiaoda, who was standing on the makeshift spot and stood out on the stage.
At the same time, several other Bashu crossbowmen also pulled the trigger, and the arrows hit the stage at a small point. Before Cao Xiaoda could get down, an arrow pierced his shoulder.
Cao Xiaoda groaned and knelt on the ground. At the same time, the Bashu soldiers who rushed in in five groups were getting closer and closer to the general platform!
"General, let's go first!" One of the guards reached out anxiously to help Cao Xiaoda, but the other guards did not dare to get up rashly, and the crossbowmen looked around in panic.
The torch illuminated the entire government office very brightly, but the enemy's crossbowmen were hidden in the darkness and could not be found. Therefore, for the Northern Zhou crossbowmen, this was almost a fight to the death.
Arrows roared out again, and the Northern Zhou crossbowmen screamed and fell down. However, their companions also discovered the direction in which the arrows were flying, and a series of somewhat messy arrows shot towards the top of the nearby house. The arrows
The arrows hit the eaves, making a crisp sound. I don't know if they killed or injured these damn island barbarians.
At this time, two guards reluctantly helped Cao Xiaoda up on the general ordering platform, and he staggered down. The originally assembled Northern Zhou army was completely in chaos, with soldiers running around in panic, especially their general who had just been ordering the order.
The general platform was under fire from the Bashu crossbowmen, and most of them had died in the battle. In addition, even Cao Xiaoda could not be found at this time, so these soldiers were leaderless for a while and could only run in all directions.
"Retreat to the government office!" Cao Xiaoda shouted at the top of his lungs.
The personal guards guarded Cao Xiaoda and retreated step by step. The soldiers who were carrying official documents out of the government office and prepared to transport them to the inner city had already picked up their weapons. When they saw Cao Xiaoda approaching, they hurriedly defended him.
"Tell everyone to retreat to the government office!" Cao Xiaoda grabbed the collar of the guard beside him.
At this time, the guard captain could only smile bitterly and said: "General, everything is in chaos, and our brothers are all injured, so how can we gather the defeated troops?"
Cao Xiaoda was startled for a moment and looked around subconsciously. There was blood on several of the guards. He didn't know who it belonged to, but looking at their embarrassed expressions, he knew that they had just fought against the charging Bashu army in the crowd.
.
This is true for these elite personal guards, let alone the rest of them.
All the soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty were running away in a hurry, obviously they no longer had the courage to confront the enemy. Cao Xiaoda said in a low voice: "I didn't expect... the impregnable Xiangyang City would be so vulnerable in the end."
"Cao Xiaoda is dead, hurry up and surrender!" At this time, a shout suddenly sounded from a distance, followed by an unknown number of people shouting.
"Cao Xiaoda is dead!"
"Hurry up and surrender!"
Cao Xiaoda's expression suddenly changed, and the guards naturally did not dare to let him take risks anymore, so they led Cao Xiaoda back directly into the government office and closed the door.
A Northern Zhou general looked blankly at the completely chaotic battlefield. They could be said to be the least understanding. They didn't know where the enemy came from, they didn't know how many there were, and they didn't know how they were defeated in such a confused way.
?
However, when they heard "Cao Xiaoda is dead", all the soldiers shuddered subconsciously. Cao Xiaoda was the backbone of the entire Xiangyang garrison. With Cao Xiaoda's death, the last hope of these soldiers disappeared.
What's more important is that they focused their attention on the general ordering platform where Cao Xiaoda once stood, but there were only corpses left there, and no one was standing at all. Maybe Cao Xiaoda's corpse was really there, otherwise how could he
Maybe you haven’t stood up to take charge of the overall situation until now?
Groups of soldiers hurriedly put down their weapons, and Cheng Feng walked through the crowd. With just a cursory glance, he knew that Cao Xiaoda must not be among them. These soldiers with panic expressions on their faces were definitely not Cao Xiaoda.
It looked like it was, and in such a short time, Cao Xiaoda probably didn't have time to change his clothes and armor.
Walking behind the general station, Cheng Feng saw the closed government office and already knew where his prey was. A famous Bashu soldier also gathered around Cheng Feng.
"Send someone to watch the gates. Leave fifty people behind. The rest will follow me!" Cheng Feng waved his hand and ran straight towards the city gate.
Although Cao Xiaoda is a very important target, he is just a turtle in an urn now. Cheng Feng is not very interested in catching a turtle in an urn. He just needs to trap him in the urn. What he needs to do is to catch a turtle in an urn.
The city gate opens.
——————————-
"First up, first up!"
Countless soldiers were raising their arms and shouting. On the long city wall, countless Bashu soldiers jumped onto the crenellations, and their swords and guns roared and fell on the enemy.
Different from the previous breakthroughs at a few points, this time there were too many breakthroughs on the city wall. This was because the Northern Zhou army's strength on the city was really stretched thin, and the long city wall could not accommodate so many people. Of course, two
It was because Li Xingchen's attack came too suddenly, and looking around from the top of the city, it was difficult to see how many people were attacking in the dim light, so he had no idea how to arrange the troops.
The place where Chen Zhishen led his team to break through was where the Northern Zhou army was weak, and he quickly expanded the battle line. Groups of Bashu soldiers went up to the city in an orderly manner, while the Northern Zhou soldiers could only retreat under the enemy's pressing step by step. (
