From refugee NPC to mythical general

Chapter 174: All-out Attack
In the Wu Dynasty, in the main city, Xiahou Yuan, Li Tong, Wu Anguo and other generals are ready for battle!
As most of the Wu Dynasty's generals and strategists had died or fled, they now had few people left. The only generals left were Li Tong and Lu Jian, and the only strategist left was Tian Feng.

Zhuge Jin and Kuai Yue fled the Wu Dynasty one after another. As for the three generals Feng Xi, Mi Fang and Wu Anguo, they had died in battle early.

The garrison force of the entire Wu Dynasty's main city was only about 30,000. The small number of troops was not a big deal, but the problem was that the economy in their main city was simply not enough to support them to continue fighting.

Naturally, the Dameng Dynasty would not miss this opportunity. Now that the Wu Dynasty was at the end of its strength, over the past half month, under the leadership of Zhang Liao and Zhuge Liang, the Dameng Dynasty had been continuously encroaching on the cities within the Wu Dynasty. Except for the main city of the Wu Dynasty, almost all of them had been captured.

The Dameng Dynasty now has 60,000 mercenaries, 20,000 of whom are stationed in cities across the country, and only 10,000 of the remaining 50,000 are left to guard the rear towns. The generals headed by Zhang Liao and Zhuge Liang lead 40,000 elite troops and head straight for the main city of the Wu Dynasty.

It's drizzling today.

Forty thousand troops of the Dameng Dynasty were at the gates of the city. Xiahou Yuan, Wu Yingxiong and all the others stood on the city wall, overlooking the more than 40 thousand troops below. A look of nervousness appeared on Wu Yingxiong's face.

Now the offensive and defensive situation has changed. Previously, the Wu Dynasty's main offensive situation has become defensive.

Zhuge Liang had never expected that after fighting a war for such a long time, one day he would take the initiative to attack. Before that, they were all on the passive defense. This also shows that the development of the Dameng Dynasty has far surpassed other forces.

Zhuge Liang looked at the soldiers defending above him, and then at the generals behind him, Pan Feng, Zhong Hui, Gongsun Zan, Le Jin, Gan Ning, Guan Ping, Gao Shun, and Yu Jin. Now he had a large number of soldiers and generals, and was not afraid of the enemy at all.

He immediately gave orders to all his generals to lead their troops and attack from the four city gates of the Wu Dynasty.

The other side is now seriously lacking in military generals. As long as one city is broken, Zhang Liao and Zhuge Liang can lead their troops to launch a fierce charge.

There was no nonsense from either side, and everyone knew how important this war was to them. The soldiers of the Dameng Dynasty began to climb up the city gate under a hail of arrows. The vanguard troops showed no fear of death and began round after round of charges towards the top of the city.

There are densely packed soldiers in front of the four city gates. The defense is strong in some places, but weak in others.

In Xicheng, the main attacking generals were Le Jin and Gan Ning, both of them were sixth-rate generals. Since joining the Dameng Dynasty, they have never had the opportunity to show their skills. After all, they were generals who surrendered from the Yu Dynasty. Although Zhuge Liang treated them as his own people, if they did not show any performance, they would always feel a little uncomfortable in the Dameng Dynasty.

So the two of them, without saying a word, personally acted as the vanguard and charged towards the city gate fearlessly.

The general guarding the west city was Lü Jian, who was just a seventh-rate general. The two of them quickly climbed up the city wall despite the enemy's strong defense.

Lu Jian was horrified and rushed over to defend, but facing two powerful generals, they were still no match for the opponent.

puff!

Gan Ning chopped down with his sword, killing Lü Jian directly, and shouted, "Don't fight any longer, leave the city."

Their goal was clear: to open the city gates and allow more soldiers to enter the city.

"Go inform General Zhang and General Zhuge that the West City has been breached. Have them come quickly."

Although the West City Gate had not been opened yet, Le Jin and Gan Ning were confident that they could break through the West City, so they had to inform Zhuge Liang as soon as possible and have him bring the soldiers over as quickly as possible. "Kill! Open the city gate, soldiers, charge!"

Le Jin and Gan Ning rushed towards the bottom of the city gate, and soon a gap was opened in the west city.

At the same time, at the main gate of the South City, a fierce battle was going on. A personal soldier hurried over to find Zhuge Liang and said with a fist: "General Zhuge, General Gan asked me to report that the West City has been breached. Please go in quickly."

Zhuge Liang was also stunned. It had only been about two hours since the siege, and the soldiers were already exhausted. He was planning to ask the soldiers to stop attacking, rest for a while and then continue the attack.

Who knew that Le Jin and Gan Ning had already broken down the city gate? Without any hesitation, Zhuge Liang immediately led his army to charge towards the west city.

On the city gate, Wu Yingxiong and Xiahou Yuan watched this scene. Wu Yingxiong finally breathed a sigh of relief. The high-intensity attack before had made him a little breathless. He was afraid that Zhuge Liang would break into the city. But now looking at their movements, it was obvious that they had sounded the call to retreat.

This gave Wu Chao a chance to catch their breath and also gave them a chance to rest and recuperate.

As long as they keep on wasting time like this, as long as the Dameng Dynasty cannot attack, the Wu Dynasty will not fail. There are still so many people in their city who can provide blood supply, so they have the right to continue to consume.

All the outer cities were given to the Dameng Dynasty. They gathered all the resources in the main city, which still had the capacity to supply their soldiers to continue the attack.

Xiahou Yuan's face changed, and he said to Wu Yingxiong: "My lord, what if...what if they don't withdraw their troops?"

Wu Yingxiong asked curiously, "Not retreating? Then what is it? It can't be the other city gates... eh!"

Could it be that other city gates have been breached? Wu Yingxiong suddenly thought of this possibility, and his face gradually became solemn. He said in disbelief: "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

At this moment, the soldiers from the West City rushed over from the horse path on the top of the city wall, found Wu Yingxiong, and shouted: "My lord, General Xiahou, it's bad, the West City, the West City has been breached, and General Lu died in the battle."

"A breach has been opened in the west city, and more and more enemy troops are entering our city."

Upon hearing this news, Wu Yingxiong was completely desperate and murmured, "How, how is this possible!"

"General Xiahou, what should we do? What should we do now?"

Xiahou Yuan's expression also began to become solemn. He originally thought that the Dameng Dynasty would not attack so easily. He originally thought that with such strong defensive capabilities, it would be impossible for the city to be breached in one day. However, he overestimated the defensive capabilities of the Wu Dynasty or underestimated the Dameng Dynasty's determination to defeat the Wu Dynasty.

Yes, almost the entire Wu Dynasty has become a possession of the enemy, and now it is just a matter of time. Why shouldn’t they make a quick decision and try their best to take down the Wu Dynasty?

Xiahou Yuan gritted his teeth and said, "My lord, this is the last battle! Believe in me. Even if they break into the city, what does it matter? I will definitely defeat them. I will defeat them fairly. In this way, we still have a chance to change our fate!"

"My lord, don't panic. I will go and defeat the enemy!"
