Three Kingdoms: From Yinlin to Great Wei Xiongzhu

Chapter 153 Where the city is, the killing intent of the Longxiao camp is strong

Puyang City, the south gate, above the city tower.

On the surface, the defense here is lax, but in fact... the bow and arrows here have long been prepared, and countless crossbowmen are waiting for the battle. The patriarch of the Tian clan is standing at the top of the city, with serious eyes, as if he has something on his mind.

Not far behind him, Chen Gong had long been standing here, looking up at the sky with his hands behind his back, as if feeling the breeze here.

Since April, the weather has calmed down a lot, and the strong wind that was very bitter at night has also turned into a gentle breeze. It is quite comfortable to let it blow.

Speaking of it, Chen Gong seemed extremely calm, completely different from the awe-inspiring murderous intent lurking here.

"Tap tap..."

A burst of extremely hurried footsteps came to everyone's ears.

Countless people looked towards the city ladder, and a silver and red figure caught everyone's eyes. Lu Bu was wearing his beautiful armor, and Fang Tian's painted halberd in his hand was oozing murderous intent under the moonlight...

The saber hanging above the tiger-striped ribbon on the waist is particularly eye-catching.

Today, although he didn't wear the Lord's cloak, the breath of iron and blood killing that he had practiced on the Yanmen battlefield for decades was enough to make the defenders here stagnate.

Similarly, today he is already ready to go, vowing to avenge the humiliation of... Chenliu County's defeat in the past.

"Won't Marquis Wen go to ambush? Why are you on the tower?" Seeing Lu Bu, Chen Gong asked.

"Sir..." Lu Bu's eyes looked serious, "The first half of the night is almost over, and there is no movement at Cao Ying. Will they really come?"

"Wait a little longer." Chen Gong still looked calm. "Unless Cao Cao finds new food, he will never give up this opportunity..."

Chen Gong's eyes narrowed, and between his brows, he seemed quite determined.

Seemingly seeing Lu Bu's dignified expression undiminished, Chen Gong stood on tiptoe and patted him on the shoulder lightly. "Feng Xian, don't worry, no one in this world understands Cao Cao better than me!"

That's right, Chen Gong was the first person to see Cao Cao clearly, and also the first person to truly understand Cao Cao.

But at this moment...

"Shh..."

A handful of torches appeared in Cao Ying's camp, and then...it could be clearly seen that the soldiers and horses in Cao Ying's camp were rapidly gathering towards the south gate.

"I'm coming…"

Now, Chen Gong was the first to get excited. After changing his calmness just now, he became excited at this moment.

Finally... finally there is such a day.

Chen Gong has a chance to defeat Cao Cao and capture Cao Cao. He wants to prove to Cao Cao that his way of Chen Gong is correct!

At this moment, Lu Bu was stunned, not only he was stunned, but all the soldiers who had been ambushing for most of the night were also stunned...

Cao Jun, no... Cao Cao is really here?Attacking from the south gate!

Is he... about to fall into this ambush that was prepared in advance?
After a brief astonishment, Lu Bu and the Bingzhou Wolf Rider were all in high spirits. Everyone who was ambushing here was filled with anger.

How miserable were they when they were ambushed from ten sides in Chenliu County... How angry are they today?
In their subconscious, Cao Jun must also feel the pain, feel the despair!

"Marquis Wen..." Chen Gong finally ordered: "Cao Cao is coming soon... Hurry up and prepare, this battle must capture Cao Cao alive!"

capture…

This is Chen Gong's entrustment to Lu Bu, and it is also Chen Gong's expectation.

How he wished that one day he could stand on a high place and watch the bound Cao Cao kneeling in front of him.

Then Chen Gong pointed to Cao Cao's nose and told him that he was wrong, and his fault was that he said that sentence - I would rather let the people of the world down, than the people of the world blame me!

The bigger mistake was that Chen Gong changed his allegiance to betrayal.

"Sir, it's a fortune teller. In this battle, Bu will definitely capture that Cao Cao in front of you, and let him do what you want!"

"Marquis Wen, you must remember." Chen Gong turned around, did not discuss the previous topic, but said quite seriously: "Cao Cao was captured alive not only for me, you must know that the living Cao Cao At least it can be changed to a city in the middle of Yanzhou!"

Huo...Take Cao Cao for the city and county of Yanzhou?
As soon as this remark came out, Lu Bu admired Chen Gong even more, and even threw himself into the ground. Mr. Gongtai is playing a big game of chess!

After bowing his hands, Lu Bu quickly ran down the tower. This night was destined to be a big battle.

...

...

In Caoying Dazhai, countless soldiers gathered quickly, and it was obvious that the direction of the three armies' gathering was the south gate.

But in fact... more soldiers, horses and siege equipment have been quietly transported to the other three gates.

However, Cao Cao did it very secretly. The hoofs of each batch of horses were wrapped in cloth, and even the mouths of each horse were wrapped in a horse mouth cage.

He even ordered that, except for the armored soldiers assembled at the south gate, no light of fire should be exposed anywhere.

Watching the army advance in an orderly manner.

Cao Cao's eyes narrowed slightly... He looked around at Lu Yu beside him, and at the same time, he looked at the seven hundred Longxiao Battalion knights behind Lu Yu who were ready to go. "Lu Gongcao, is it really okay for the Longxiao camp to go to the south gate?"

In the words, Cao Cao was worried for Lu Yu and Long Xiaoying.

"Cao Gong, don't worry." Lu Yu smiled lightly...

The reason why Cao Cao would ask this question and Lu Yu would answer this question is because... in this battle.

Lu Yu took the initiative to invite Ying, and asked the Longxiao Battalion to attack the south gate and fall into Lu Bu's ambush, so as to delay the main force of the enemy army and buy time for the soldiers who attacked the city at the other gates.

It stands to reason that the knights of the Longxiao Battalion are all Cao Cao's fellow Qiaopei. Cao Cao didn't want them to die...but Lu Yu's eyes were too firm...

"I believe in this brave cavalry under me!"

Lu Yu's answer was the same as before. "If it takes too long... Maybe it won't work, but Long Xiao Battalion can still hold back Lu Bu's army for an hour!"

Speaking of this, Lu Yu paused for a moment, and then his tone became more serious and meticulous. "Duke Cao, we must destroy the city within an hour!"

Obviously, Cao Cao can understand what Lu Yu means...

To put it bluntly, the soldiers and horses going to the South City Gate are the only victims of this battle, but even if they are victims, they have an extremely heavy task, and they need to hold back the enemy!
And being in an ambush for an hour, is this already the limit of the knights of the Longxiao Battalion?
If within this hour, the other three city gates are breached, and soldiers from all battalions rush to help Long Xiaoqi... perhaps, they will still have a chance.

but…

Cao Cao still couldn't figure out why Yu'er had to take the initiative to ask for this task...

Obviously, it would cost a lot!
"Really, don't you need to lead the troops yourself?" Cao Cao asked after pondering for a long time.

"It would be dangerous for Mr. Cao to go. Leave it to General Cao Xiu and Dian Dutong... The knights of the Longxiao Battalion have been waiting for this day." Lu Yu immediately replied...

Yes…

The Long Xiao Battalion is equipped with fine steel halberds, steel knives, and steel armor, and is ravaged by the martial arts instructor Dian Wei every day, but within a few months, it has already transformed!

Now... all of them are eager to try, "Aoao" want to go to the battlefield, make great achievements, and shine on the lintel.

But in fact, under Lu Yu's command, let alone a battlefield.

...Even if they beat up bandits, Cao Cao would not be willing to send them there!

A suit of excellent equipment, full of strength... They are usually ravaged by Dian Wei, and they want to ravage others too!

So... This time, it was not Lu Yu who took the initiative to invite Cao Cao...

Instead, from top to bottom of the Long Xiao Battalion, the seven hundred soldiers of the whole battalion asked Lu Yu for help.

Seeing their eager eyes, Lu Yu couldn't bear to dampen their enthusiasm. Since he wanted to fight, he should fight...

For this reason, before the assembly, Lu Yu personally cooked a few big pots of migratory locusts for them, and wished them a prosperous future after this battle-"migratory locusts"!
call…

Cao Cao exhaled heavily, and put his hands on Lu Yu's shoulders, "Since you are so persistent, then I won't say anything more. The other three gates still need to be deployed. I will leave the south gate to you. !"

"You must fulfill your mission!" Lu Yu cupped his hands...

Cao Cao patted Lu Yu's shoulder again, nodded, and immediately got on his horse... and led a group of personal guards to drive towards the west gate.

The West Gate of Puyang City is the closest gate to the South Gate. Whether it can be captured immediately is crucial to tonight's battle!

Watching Cao Cao drift away...

Lu Yu turned around and walked towards the seven hundred knights of the Longxiao Battalion. They hadn't mounted their horses at this time, and the steel halberds in their hands looked particularly cold under the moonlight.

call…

Lu Yu let out a soft cry, and immediately ordered: "Put on the vest!"

That's right, during this period of time, in addition to forging fine steel weapons and fine steel armor, the forge also forged [-] sets of iron vests according to Lu Yu's drawings.

To be honest, the forging of this vest... almost caused the "little forging genius" Cao Mu to lose a lot of hair, and he was worried all night.

You know... the forging of a vest is many times more complicated than armor.

Each horse needs to forge six pieces of armor...

The "face curtain" to protect the horse's head; the "chicken neck" to protect the horse's neck; the "dang chest" to protect the horse's chest;
The "horse body armor" that protects the torso; the "back" that protects the hips; and the "parasite" that hangs on the tail, consisting of six parts in total.

The reason why steel was not used was because Lu Yu and Cao Mu had tested it... Steel armor is too heavy, and it is a great burden on the horse.

But...even iron vests were ahead of their time.

According to the records in ancient books, the fully armed "armored riding equipment" only appeared during the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Sixteen Kingdoms to the Southern and Northern Dynasties.

Lu Yu drew it in advance, and the forge worked hard to build it. The purpose...is nothing more than to protect the seven hundred brothers!

From Lu Yu's point of view... if one day, Long Xiaoqi has no choice but to go to the battlefield...

According to Lu Yu's timid character, he can only hide as far as possible.

Therefore, Lu Yu can only use this method to reduce the loss...

One is armor, the other is vest, cavalry, as long as the horse does not die, the chances of people surviving will be greatly increased.

That's all Lu Yu can do, with the double armor on his body, brothers... life and death depend on each other's destiny!
Not long after, the seven hundred soldiers of the Longxiao Battalion had already wrapped their horses with their vests, so that the whole body of the horse was protected by black armor except for the exposed ears, eyes, mouth, nose, limbs and tail...

However, in the pitch black night, it was difficult to see clearly what the horse was wearing.

Watching the soldiers of the Longxiao Battalion stand ready.

call…

Lu Yu exhaled again.

He didn't say too many pretentious things. In terms of boosting morale, Cao Xiu was much better than what he had to do.

But... Lu Yu walked up to Dian Wei and asked in a low voice, "Is the horse okay?"

"Mr. Cao's horse is a good horse...it's just that this horse is disobedient and won't let him wear a vest!" Dian Wei replied...

so...

Lu Yu paused slightly.

The horse in front of Dian Wei was not the one he usually rode, but Cao Cao's mount...

Many people in Cao Ying knew this horse, and there were also people on Lu Bu's side!
Because of a special plan tonight, Dian Wei will ride Cao Cao's horse today.

"Master Lu, actually, this cloak is not comfortable...it's too small!"

Dian Wei is also wearing Cao Cao's cloak, which can completely cover his big and round body and the steel armor wrapped around him... It's just a little small, and it's almost impossible to cover it!
If you are at a close distance, you can naturally see the flaws at a glance.

But from a long distance... Everyone will only feel that Cao Cao is riding a yellow horse and a red cloak!

"Dian Dutong, I promise you to use that iron thing this time..." Lu Yu continued...

what…

Dian Wei was taken aback for a moment, then scratched his head immediately, but didn't react for a while...

It can be seen that Lu Yu pointed to the baggage beside him, and immediately understood.

"That stirrup...haha..." Dian Wei was overjoyed, he had gotten used to the iron stirrup many times, and this thing's blessing to his riding skills was immeasurable, but, I don't know why Mr. Lu didn't let him show it!
"Being able to step on these stirrups makes me feel more at ease. Not to mention a Lu Bu kid, even if I get another pair, I'm not afraid of him!"

"Haha..." Lu Yu laughed...Chen Gong is playing a big game of chess today, but how could he, Lu Yu, not be playing a big game of chess?

Seeing Dian Wei fully armed...

Lu Yu nodded, muttering in his heart, go, pickup...ah no...wrong, let's go, ancient evil comes!

Today, close the door and let the dogs go, but who is the dog, whoever bites who is not sure?

"Brothers, come back alive, I will celebrate for you!" Lu Yu felt that he was not good at words, so he held back for a long time, and then said this sentence...

But this sentence is enough.

"I'll wait... We will not disgrace our mission! We will not disgrace Mr. Lu's name!" The voices of the soldiers from the Longxiao Battalion were deafening and resounded through the heavens and the earth.

In a word,
"Dedede"...the horse neighed!
The sound of horseshoes "da da da" pierced the silent night...

Outside of Puyang City, only the south gate is the most powerful side. Today... the south gate, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, went to the tiger mountain!
...

...

That night, the south gate of Puyang City was full of flames, and the entire gate was ablaze!
The fire was set off by another three thousand Qingzhou soldiers who entered the south gate together with Long Xiao Battalion...

Long Xiao can only ride 700 people, the number is too small...it will make people suspicious.

Therefore, in addition to the [-] cavalry, Cao Cao allocated another [-] Qingzhou soldiers to be led by Cao Xiu.

raging flames...

This was the original plan of Cao Cao and Tian's clan - set fire as a sign, and at the same time... this was also deliberately done by Cao Xiu. He wanted to tell the soldiers that the city gate was on fire and there was no way out. This battle will be ruined!
Entering the south gate at this time... the leader wearing a red cloak and riding a brown horse is "Cao Cao"!
The Puyang Tian family who cooperated from inside to outside appeared, and the codes were matched, but... at the same time, there were arrows all over the sky and countless Bingzhou soldiers killed in various streets and alleys!
"Cao Aman, I didn't expect you to be so stupid, you fell into my Chen Gong's plan of ambush from ten sides, and you didn't even know it, and even burned the city gate, hahaha... Today, you can't fly without wings!"

"Oops... I fell into the trap!"

Cao Xiu said so, but there was no panic in his heart at all. He even glanced at "Cao Cao" from the corner of his eye... It's just that this "Cao Cao" is really big, and his wrist is almost as big as Cao Xiu's. The thighs are thick.

It does not matter!It is impossible for Chen Gong in the night to notice this!
Of course, the ambush was to be expected...

Then the next thing they have to do is to hold back the enemy.

It's just that the three thousand Qingzhou soldiers didn't know this, and they seemed to be a little flustered!
"Don't panic, officers and men. Everything was within the expectations of Cao Gong and Lu Gongcao. Today... I am waiting for help! If I die, I will be commanded by the deputy general. If the deputy general is dead, I will be commanded by the commander. The commander is dead, and there are centurions, chiefs, and corps chiefs, and every knight of the Longxiao Battalion and Qingzhou soldiers!"

"There is no coward who came here. As long as our side does not fall, Puyang City will definitely be captured today. In today's battle, there will be no retreat! If the front army retreats, the rear army can be killed immediately. If I, Cao Xiu, retreat, you will also It can be cut!"

"All the soldiers follow me to kill!"

While speaking, the sound of horseshoes resounded, seven hundred steel halberds and seven hundred fully armed steel armored knights had already met the enemies on all sides, and in an instant, the killing sound shook the sky!
Qingzhou soldiers are still a little confused, are they in ambush?How does it feel... It seems like an ambush in the enemy army, the knights of the Longxiao Battalion can fight, what is the name of "Aww...

It is impossible for Qingzhou soldiers to understand...

Over the past few months, the soldiers of the Longxiao Battalion have been tortured by Dian Wei every day, or have adapted to the fine steel halberds and steel armor...

It's like you are wearing a godly costume, and you can kill 999...

However, it's no wonder that you cut it down, aren't you lonely?

Even... this is no longer what loneliness can describe, this is emptiness... empty, lonely, cold!

It's hard for someone who can verify the improvement of martial arts and the improvement of magic weapons in the past few months, which one is not eager to try?

"Kill..."

"Kill..."

The seven hundred knights of the Longxiao battalion collided with the five thousand wolf knights of Bingzhou.

Logically speaking, this is a difficult battle, but... the knights of the Longxiao Battalion are still fearless.

Seven hundred soldiers, their generosity and bravery shook the sky, directly covering up the enemy's shouts of killing.The soaring evil spirit spread out, making the five thousand Bingzhou wolf riders short of breath, as if they were not facing 700 people, but tens of thousands of tiger and leopard riders.

Lu Bujun only knew that tiger and leopard cavalry were brave, but they didn't know... Long Xiao's cavalry was not weaker than tiger and leopard cavalry!

Under the night, the city of Puyang.

The edge was coated with a layer of golden light by the moonlight, and it began to flicker continuously on the ground.

almost at the same time...

Tens of thousands of Cao Jun soldiers appeared at the east, west, and north gates of Puyang City at the same time, and this also opened the chapter of the siege battle!
"Assault with the whole army and take down Puyang City!"

Cao Cao rode on the horse and commanded the soldiers to charge. The ladders were already ready to go, and the siege vehicles moved forward at the fastest speed.

And at this moment...the total number of Bingzhou soldiers stationed on the three towers in the east, west, and north does not exceed a thousand.

How can we stop the strong attack of more than [-] Cao Jun soldiers?

"One hour! Break the city!" Cao Cao looked at the sky, and the cold tone came out, which cannot be doubted!

At this moment... Looking down from the Nine Heavens, one after another flames rose from all around Puyang City... It was like a huge wave rolling and hitting the ground, and the ground carrying the city wall began to shake.

...
