The Three Kingdoms: The strategist will stop, and Rome will be unified

Chapter 255
The instant change of tone caused Ma Chao's expression to change slightly.

The Hao Zhao in front of him was obviously very different from what he had seen a few days ago. Facing the [-] army, he didn't panic at all, and was even extremely calm.

Is this really the same person as the general who abandoned the city and fled that day?

Ma Chao looked up coldly and said, "Do you dare to go out of the city to fight?"

Hao Zhao shouted loudly: "Soldiers, follow me to defend Huaili County to the death. As long as you hold out until the reinforcements arrive, what is a mere [-] Xiliang cavalry!"

The soldiers on the city defense shouted loudly, and all the soldiers showed extremely firm expressions.

"Defend Huaili County!"

This tone made Ma Chao frown slightly. It seems that today he will forcibly attack the city again.

Then he looked up and said angrily, "Then don't blame me for breaking through Huaili County today!"

Sima Yi, who came along with him, breathed a sigh of relief. Hao Zhao's words proved that there was indeed no army or ambushes in Sizhou.

"kill!"

Only Ma Chao shouted.

"After I enter the city, kill everyone!"

Looking at Hao Zhao, he said angrily, "I want to see how you can defend against my army's attack!"

If it was before, it would be fine for Zhao Yun to look at him with this look, why should Hao Zhao look at himself with this look.

"Boom boom boom!"

Counting the [-] soldiers borrowed from Zhang Lu in Hanyang County, [-] soldiers walked towards the city wall in unison.

And the soldiers standing at the top all held huge shields and slowly covered the soldiers behind them.

He tried to block the arrows fired from the city defense, but Hao Zhao didn't seem to order his soldiers to attack immediately, but waited quietly for the approach of the army.

With Wengcheng, Hao Zhao was not afraid of these soldiers at all, and his expression was extremely indifferent.

The [-] soldiers came directly outside the Urn City, and saw that their shield formation spread out in the middle, and the soldiers among them also avoided one after another, and two city-charging vehicles also emerged from the crowd.

The front of the city rushing vehicle has countless huge spikes made of iron. This city rushing vehicle will probably leave many large holes when it hits the city gate.

Unless it was a metal city gate, the wooden city gate would probably cease to exist if it was hit several times by the ramming vehicle.

The appearance of this charging vehicle made the Xiliang soldiers look excited.

This can't help but make Hao Zhao on the city defense show a bit of surprise. He didn't expect that the Xiliang army had already prepared.

Even the assault vehicle is ready, which is obviously an early preparation for the forcible siege of the city.

But I still laughed, so what if you broke the gate of Wengcheng?
On the archery tower in the Wengcheng, there are countless archers waiting for these soldiers to enter.

"boom!"

There was a huge impact sound, and the city rush car was violently hitting the city gate, making a violent sound.

Numerous potholes were left on the city gate of Wengdeng, and with the launch of the city charging cart, countless sawdust flowed out along the potholes.

The assault car that was ready to go continued to prepare for the next collision.

The Xiliang army all showed a smile.

Ma Chao said proudly: "This time, let's see how you defend against us!"

It was only a matter of time before the city rushing vehicles broke through the city gates. Two city charging vehicles collided with the city gates of Wengcheng one after another.

However, Hao Zhao's expression didn't change much. He looked at Ma Chao without any fear. He just broke down the gate of the Wengcheng, and the real defense was yet to come.

"Crash!"

The sound of the wooden planks of the city gate being broken continued to be heard, and as expected, the gate of Wengcheng was easily smashed by the Xiliang army.

"Chong, brothers, the urn city has been broken, follow me to kill!"

The [-] army headed directly towards the Wengcheng, but these soldiers only took two steps towards the Wengcheng, and countless arrows flew towards the Wengcheng.

"call out!"

The soldiers at the front fell to the ground one after another, and the rain of arrows seemed to be continuously fired without end.

Countless soldiers panicked one after another, looking a little shocked in their hearts.

The sky filled with arrows is not the only thing that catches the eye, this uniform archery tower is simply terrifying.

"Shield Guard!"

"Come quickly to block the bow and arrow!"

However, it is too late to condense the shield formation again now. A round of arrows has already been fired. Even if the shield formation is condensed, it will already be damaged by over a thousand.

These people didn't even touch the real city wall, they just struggled back and forth in the urn.

"Everyone stay in formation!"

A centurion in the crowd commanded loudly, and the soldiers became orderly.

The shield formation condensed again, and these soldiers stepped forward slowly.

At the same time, the shield array spread out on both sides again, and the charging cart was pushed out by the soldiers again.

There was even a hint of expectation in the eyes of those soldiers. As long as the real gate in the urn city was broken, the [-] cavalry behind them would level the Huaili County.

"Come on, smash the city gate for me."

Hao Zhao looked at the soldiers who were about to approach the city gate, and said coldly: "Prepare to lay out hay, sprinkle it with kerosene, and throw it around the chariot."

The soldiers on the city defense threw countless hay, accompanied by a strong pungent smell.

The [-] troops below the city defense instantly understood Cao Jun's intentions.

Countless torches were thrown down without giving the enemy any time to react. This series of actions was completed very coherently.

There was a voice of exclamation among the [-] troops.

"It's kerosene, retreat quickly."

Before he could finish speaking, raging fires had already burst into the sky, and the flames around the city rush car were even worse.

For a while, no one dared to get close to the surrounding area. If this continues, if the flames are allowed to burn, the assault vehicle will probably turn into a pile of charcoal soon.

Hao Zhao laughed loudly on the city wall, "However, do you really think that the car that rushed into the city can break down my city gate?"

Ma Chao looked a little ugly, and said lightly: "It's just fire oil, I want to see how you burn my [-] troops!"

Then, while talking, the [-] army continued to die and wound, and the appearance of flames completely disrupted the shield formation.

The soldiers on the archery tower did not let go of this excellent opportunity, and countless arrows were fired one after another.

Hao Zhao shook his head, looked at Ma Chao and smiled indifferently: "Without the city rush car, I want to see how you can break my city."

Ma Chao personally went into battle with a spear in hand and directed the surrounding soldiers, but was beaten back by the rain of arrows, making it difficult for him to move an inch.

Sima Yi, who was leading the army at the rear, frowned when he saw that the army had been quiet for a long time after entering the Wengcheng.

"Cao's army is rich, I am afraid that there are countless arrows hoarded."

"I'm afraid they won't be short of arrows. There are crenelated walls on the city defense, and they are condescending. Even if there are archers shooting at each other from behind, our soldiers may not be able to break through the city for a while."

As soon as he said this, Ma Teng on the side had a stern look on his face.

It is extremely important for him to win this city. When Cao Jun's support arrives, there will be no such good opportunity.

Ma Teng looked at the city wall once, and his brows frowned, but there was only an urn.

There are only 2 people in this city, why can [-] troops be intercepted?
