Sui and Tang Dynasties Summons

Chapter 343 Burning Jian'an
woo woo woo. .

The sound of the horn soared into the sky, and the oncoming Xiliang iron cavalry rose and fell like huge waves. Thousands of iron cavalry flowed like countless rivers, converging towards the southwest of Jian'an County, and finally merged into an iron-clad sea.

The world is chilling, and the situation is gradually rising.

On top of Jian'an City, soldiers of Liang Jun looked at the mighty aura of the Xiliang iron cavalry, all trembling in their hearts, and the hands holding the weapons were trembling.

Hao Zhao gasped, and then suddenly remembered the cause and effect. It turned out that it was as he expected. This was a plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain. He transferred most of the elite soldiers and generals in Jian'an County, and then let Ma Chao lead the troops to attack the city, so that Xia Houyuan would not care about the tail.

"King of Qiantang, oh King of Qiantang, I never imagined that you have such resourceful people under your command." Hao Zhao took another breath, and couldn't help feeling a little more emotional in his eyes, but that emotion immediately turned into contemptuous eyes.

"In the whole world, no one has ever been able to break through the city defended by me, Hao Bodao!"

"Fire the arrow! Change the left wing to the right wing!" Hao Zhao on the city wall called out calmly.

On Jian'an City, more than a thousand sharp arrows flew into the sky following Hao Zhao's order, and rushed towards the advancing Xiliang cavalry.

Seeing arrows shooting from the city, Ma Chao immediately shouted angrily, "Spear!"

With an order, thousands of Xiliang cavalry behind them all threw the short spears in their hands into the air.

With a distance of more than a hundred steps, the humming roar suddenly sounded, overshadowing the sound of horns, overshadowing the sound of drums, swallowing all the sounds in the world.

The locust-like rain of arrows and spears interweaved in the sky into sky nets covering the sky, blasting fiercely at the two armies.

Screaming loudly.

Although Xia Houyuan transferred [-] soldiers, Jian'an County still has a large number of people, and there are nearly [-] crossbowmen, and they are all army-breaking crossbowmen under Xia Houyuan's command. The number and lethality are all superior. , Naturally, it easily overshadowed Ma Chao's short spear projection.

Sharp arrows shot down wildly, and Xiliang iron cavalry were constantly shot down on the way forward. The Xiliang iron cavalry, who had experienced many battles, used their strong will to forcibly suppress the fear in their hearts. Facing the rain of arrows, we moved forward bravely.

Ma Chao took the lead, with the tip of the dragon in his hand like a dragon in the sea, leading the way at the front, bravely moving forward in the rain of arrows, wherever the spear hit, the arrows were crushed to pieces.

A moment later, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry had already approached Jian'an County. After a distance of more than a hundred steps, the troops in front of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry dismounted from their horses.

Each of them nailed the corner of the city wall with flying hooks, and they climbed up like Yunyan.

"I thought Xiliang iron cavalry only had the advantage of charging into battle, but I didn't expect to have the ability to fly over walls. I underestimated it."

Hao Zhao smiled coldly, and pulled out the sword in his hand. Sen Han's moonlight was reflected on the distorted face, and he resolutely shouted: "Pour kerosene, light the fire!"

Puff, puff.

With an order, rows of soldiers prepared in advance poured all the kerosene down the city wall, and then threw the torches directly down.

boom!
There was a monstrous roar, and the fire on the city wall exploded. The night sky was reflected like day, and heat waves rolled over the wall.

Although the Xiliang iron cavalry was brave, they had never seen such a defense of the city before, and they couldn't react in an instant. The flames burned their armor, and the wailing sounds turned into balls of fire, and they fell directly from the city wall.

Although Ma Chao is unparalleled in martial arts, seeing this strange way of defending the city, he couldn't help being shocked, and his mount was shocked by the monstrous flames and retreated a few steps.

At this time, although Ma Chao wanted to take Jian'an County in one fell swoop, but if this continues, the damage of his subordinate soldiers will become more and more serious.

Looking at the raging flames, Ma Chao had no choice but to grit his teeth, put away the point of the dragon rider's spear, turned the horse's head and shouted angrily, "Withdraw!"

Under Ma Chao's order, Xiliang soldiers did not want to give up, but had no choice but to retreat with Ma Chao.

Because if he didn't retreat at this time and couldn't attack the city, when Xia Houyuan led his troops back to the city, Ma Chao would be caught in an embarrassing situation surrounded by inside and outside.

Even if Ma Chao has great abilities, he can't lead everyone to break through.

The flames soaring into the sky reflected Hao Zhao's ferocious cheeks. Looking at the retreating figure of the Xiliang iron cavalry, the corners of his mouth finally slowly drew a sneer.

The next day.

The entire Jian'an area was filled with a bloody and scorched atmosphere, and Chen Jun was cleaning up the bloody rivers on the battlefield.

Chen Jun camp.

Xu Maogong sat beside the general, with a feather fan in his hand, he looked at the ashes-covered Ma Chao and said in a deep voice, "In this way, Hao Zhao is a good general for defending the city, and he has no strategy for attacking."

Ma Chao gritted his teeth helplessly and said, "Indeed."

Xu Maogong cast his eyes on Gao Chong again, and then asked, "How was the result of General Gao's battle last night?"

Gao Chong shook his head ashamedly, and sighed: "The final general crippled one of Xia Houyuan's arms, but he was blocked by the man in the iron mask, so he had to watch Xiahouyuan faint and be rescued by his subordinates back to Jian'an County."

Xu Maogong stroked his beard lightly, and said with a calm smile: "You generals don't blame yourself. Now Liang Bing has lost a large number of soldiers and generals, and his morale has lost seven or eight."

"Even so, Military Advisor, how can we capture Jian'an County?" Zhao Yun couldn't help asking.

But Xu Maogong counted and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, the enemy will be defeated in the near future, and there will be noble people coming."

"Report!"

As soon as the words came, I saw a soldier lifted the curtain, hurried in, stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "I would like to report to the generals of the military division, Zhou Dudu has led the army outside the tent."

"This is the nobleman you mentioned." Xu Maogong got up and smiled, and then said: "Generals, come with me to meet Zhou Dudu."

Under the leadership of Xu Maogong, everyone went out of the camp to welcome the arrival of Zhou Yu's army.

I saw Zhou Yu wearing a strong and sharp coat, with Lu Meng on the left and Jiang Song on the right. Behind him was leading an army of [-], like a lion descended from heaven.

"It's been a long time, Governor Zhou."

Xu Maogong, Zhao Yun and others all stepped forward and bowed their hands in greeting.

Zhou Yu also cupped his hands and said with a smile: "It's been a long time, generals, and knowing that Jian'an County's troops have increased, I'm here to help General Zhao break through Jian'an."

"I'm sorry." Zhao Yun looked relieved, and then cast his eyes on Jiang Song again. Feeling familiar, he asked, "May I ask Dudu Zhou, who is this general?"

Zhou Yu first smiled kindly, then stretched out his hand to introduce: "This is Jiang Song and Jiang Yongnian, the masked general who fought against Li Yuanba in Fuchun that day."

Before finishing speaking, Zhou Yu changed the subject and said with a smile, "But today I have a more important person to introduce to you."
