Emperor Road of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 202
Liu Yu led three thousand elite soldiers and galloped all the way, just in time for Li Tong's army to attack the city.

The walls of the ancient city had been rebuilt long ago, but at this time they looked scarred and even stained dark red by blood.And the city gate is also dilapidated, as if it can be kicked open.

During that battle, Liu Yu's eyes were shattered, he was furious and worried at the same time.But he didn't send his army to rescue, but hid in the mountains and forests.

Rather than saying that he believes that Chen Dao will be able to defend the ancient city, it is better to say that he is betting that Chen Dao can survive this battle.In fact, on the battlefield, every decision is a gamble, big bets win big, small bets win small.

Similarly, big bets lose big, small bets lose little.

But the current situation in the ancient city is not like this. Liu Yu lost a big bet and lost a lot in a small bet.Since no matter how you gamble, the consequences are the same, so Liu Yu naturally chooses to gamble big - if he wins, he can regain the disadvantage in one fell swoop.

Therefore, Liu Yu endured his grief and watched the soldiers under his hands desperately working hard.

Fortunately, this time he won the bet. Li Tong did not capture the ancient city, but the situation in the ancient city was terrible, and he might not be able to survive the next round.

Without hesitation, Liu Yu immediately ordered several personal guards to climb into the ancient city overnight and tell Chen Dao his plan.And in the middle of the night, when those guards came back and explained the situation to him, it was nothing more than that Chen Dao had already understood his plan and started to prepare.

The plan, Liu Yu's plan is very simple, nothing more than stealing camp.However, the time of stealing the camp was a little different from usual - it was not when Cao Jun was drowsy before Pingming, but when Cao Jun attacked the city.

They lay in ambush in the forest and waited for two days before Li Tong had another chance to attack the city.Don't look at it as just two days, these two days are a matter of life and death, success or failure.

Just imagine Liu Yu ambush in the mountains and forests, how easy it is for Li Tong to find out.What will happen if Li Tong finds out?
In winter, the mountains are full of dead trees and rotten branches, and a fire is enough to destroy Liu Yujun.Needless to say, it must be extremely miserable.

That's why it's said that Liu Yu is a big gamble, betting on him for tomorrow, betting on him for a month!
But at this time, the moon is over and the sky is not yet clear.

At the head of the ancient city, Chen Dao and Zhou Cang looked at Li Tong's camp with solemn faces.

Chen Dao's face was still fair, but his eyes became more indifferent, which was the mark of seeing death.As for Zhou Cang, he is much more sloppy, with a beard on his face and eye feces hanging from the corners of his eyes.

From these two faces, we can see the crisis of the ancient city.

"Uncle Zhi, looking at the situation, is Li Tong going to attack the city today?" Somewhat uncertain, but Zhou Cang still bared his teeth excitedly.

On weekdays, Li Tong's siege was the most painful thing for him, because at that time, he was going around in front of the gate of hell.But these two days, he was looking forward to Li Tong's siege, not because he knew Liu Yu's plan and knew that he would win; but when Liu Yu came, he felt that his responsibility had been fulfilled.In this way, it is better to live and die happily than defending the city in suffering.

People on the battlefield, sometimes the last thing they fear is death.

"Yuan Fu, based on Li Tong's siege rules, he should come to attack the city today." The expression on Chen Dao's face also became relaxed, as if a mountain had been removed from his body.

As for Li Tong's siege today, it was really because the sieges were made every few days.It used to be fine, the interval was long, but recently it seemed that the ancient city would not last long, and the interval was greatly shortened.

Time slipped away during the conversation between Chen Dao and Zhou Cang, and a ray of dawn lit up in the eastern sky—at this time, it was already dawn.

Li Tong camp, soldiers suddenly crawled out densely like ants.Someone is carrying a ladder, someone is carrying a door bumper...

Behind the army, Li Tongduan sat on a horse, surrounded by personal guards.His eyes were indifferent, as if he was used to the battlefield, and it seemed that he was not in the battlefield.

Sighing lightly, not for any reason, he murmured: "Today, it's time to end." After speaking, he returned to his indifferent expression.

Suddenly, he shouted loudly: "Whoever enters the city first will be rewarded with a thousand pieces of gold, and he will be made a marquis of ten thousand households."

This is an empty sentence, no one can say for sure, but the messengers still passed it on, and the soldiers also became eager to fight as promised.

There is no righteousness, no family hatred and national hatred, and the wars here are all for profit.The interests of the big and the little are all interests, and no one is more noble.

The siege begins!

A ladder was leaning against the ancient city wall, and soldiers climbed up the ladder bravely without fear of death.They are not to climb to the top of the city, but to climb to the pinnacle of life.

However, how many people can climb up?

Huge boulders fell from the top of the city, and hit the heads of the ladder-climbing soldiers with a bang, causing those heads to burst like watermelons.Even if it didn't explode, and didn't die, the soldier would fall off the ladder and let the boulder complete its task.

Cao's army has been besieging the city for many days, but there are not many boulders in the ancient city after all.But no boulders, and boiling hot golden juice.Those golden juices poured down from the top of the city and fell on Cao Jun's body. Their scalps were numb, and they screamed mournfully—then they fell off the ladder.

However, like the boulder, there is not much golden juice, or the speed of boiling cannot keep up with the speed of Cao Jun's siege.

Ever since, Cao Jun began to appear at the top of the city in twos and threes, and Chen Dao began to lead the reserve army up, hacking and killing the rushing Cao Jun.However, there are more and more Cao troops, and the killing of the reserve army can no longer keep up with their rushing speed.

With a sinking heart, Chen Dao secretly shouted: "My lord, hurry up, hurry up!"

Seeing the soldiers attacking the city, the commander of the personal guard couldn't help grinning, but Li Tong didn't smile, instead he frowned and said to himself, "It shouldn't, it shouldn't be so fast."

Just when the ancient city was in danger and Chen Dao was screaming in his heart; when Li Tong frowned and muttered to himself, feeling something was wrong, Liu Yu moved, like a hungry wolf, leading his pack of wolves to pounce viciously on his own. Prey - Li Tong Camp!
When it was confirmed that Li Tong was attacking the city, Liu Yu led his army of [-] elite soldiers to lurk in the woods beside Li Tong's camp.But he didn't leave immediately, but waited calmly, waiting for the best opportunity.

And now, that time has come.

"kill!"

With red eyes, Liu Yu only let out a low growl, and took the lead in galloping his horse towards Li Tong's camp.He holds a spear in one hand and a torch that has just been lit in the other.

That's right, it's a torch, not only him, but also the soldiers behind him, all of them have a torch.

He wanted to burn Li Tong's camp, Li Tong's food and grass, and Li Tong's war horse.

Boom, like a flash flood, 3000 people rushed into Li Tong's camp.As soon as the servant rushed in, they started throwing torches around, and at the same time killed Li Tong's logistics soldiers everywhere.

Liu Yu led five hundred guards and killed them at the forefront.And Liu Yu is like a sharp arrow, rushing to the front.Anyone who stands in the way will either be directly hit to death by the Bronze Jue under his crotch, or directly pierced by his spear.

A horse is a good horse, a spear is a good spear, but a man is not a good man!

In almost an instant, the fire was overwhelming, and the screams were endless.But Liu Yu didn't realize it. With a ferocious roar, he raised his spear and rode his horse towards the battlefield in front of the camp.
