Jagged hegemony of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 913 Wujin Ferry Waits for Huang Zhong

"Okay, I'll tell you what needs to be said, go to sleep, it's still unknown whether I can survive tomorrow!"

After telling Yu Ji's deeds, the veteran of the Jiangdong Army closed his eyes and was about to go to sleep. After listening to the veteran's story about Yu Ji's deeds, the young soldier couldn't fall asleep even more. There are gods in it.

Suddenly, a thought popped up in his mind: "There will be a war tomorrow, and the Northern Han army has immortals to help. Wujin County must be in danger. As for myself, it is very likely that I will die when the Northern Han army attacks the city tomorrow." , since I know that I am likely to die, why don't I run away, I will also practice fairy arts, and I will also be a fairy who calls the wind and rain!"

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, the soldier simply stood up, wanting to find a deserted corner and climb down the city wall to look for the immortal in the mountains.

But just as he was about to take a step, he was stopped by the veteran next to him: "What are you going to do?"

"I, I, I'm going to relieve myself!"

Being caught, the young soldier was so frightened that he couldn't speak clearly.

"Relieve? I think you want to escape?"

The veteran said in a low voice.

"I, I, I...!"

Escaping from battle and being a deserter is a capital crime, and the young soldier was sweating profusely. He wanted to explain, but he couldn't speak.

Just when he was about to beg the old soldier not to tell the story, the old soldier suddenly said: "Little bastard, if you don't take me with you for such a big matter, it will be a waste of my taking care of you these past few months!"

"Brother, you want to be with me too...!"

"Shh...!"

The veteran hurriedly motioned him to keep his voice down, then dragged him back, let the recruit sit beside him, and asked, "Where did you plan to escape from?"

"Well, brother, I have already seen it when I was changing the guard these days. We are at the south gate, next to the river. There is a small horn a hundred steps ahead of us. Let's go around there. Climb down to the city with a rope, and after a few hundred steps, you will reach the Yangtze River. There must be boats on the bank, so let’s go rowing!”

The young soldier seemed to be ready to escape long ago, so he told all about the escape plan and the way.

"It's not too late, let's go!"

The veteran also stood up and asked the recruit to lead him. The two of them tiptoed past the sleeping soldier and came to the corner that the recruit said.

When the recruits were tying ropes on the female wall, the veteran asked in a low voice while letting the wind pass: "Did you not intend to fight when you came here, but have been thinking about how to escape?"

"Brother, speaking of it, I hate the Northern Han army more than anyone else, because my eldest brother and second brother were all killed in battle with the Northern Han army. I also want to take revenge, but I can't die. I was arrested As a soldier, there was a supervising team in Jiangdong before, and I had no way to escape. Thanks to your care, brother, I was able to survive, but the Northern Han army is too strong. If I die here, my parents , my eldest brother and second brother's children will not be taken care of, so I can only run away!"

"Good boy, the hiding is deep enough, but you are right, if we don't run, we will definitely die here tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, 36 measures, walking is the best plan, if the rope is tied, let's go!"

"Okay, let's go down now!"

As the recruit said, he was about to climb down the rope.

"Wait, take off this skin before leaving. Wearing this skin, whether it is the Northern Han Army or the Jiangdong Army who catches us, we will die!"

While talking, the old soldier took off his leather armor, and the recruit also took off his leather armor and helmet, and then the two of them went down the city wall along the rope, and ran all the way to the river, but when they reached the river, the two of them stopped. Desperate, there is not a boat by the river, and the deserters by the river are not only the two of them, at first glance, there must be at least a few hundred people.

"Brother, what should we do without a boat?"

The recruits panicked, fearing that Jiangdong's army would chase them out from Wujin City.

The veteran calmed down the recruit: "Don't panic, let's go upstream, there may be a boat upstream!"

The two walked up a few miles, but the riverside was empty and there was no boat at all.

"Brother, what should we do? It's almost dawn, if we don't leave, we will be captured by Jiangdong Army!"

"Since there is no boat, let's stay in the mountains for a while, don't we bring out all the close-fitting guys?"

The veteran patted the dagger on his waist, the recruit looked at the bow and arrow on his back, and the two ran to the deep mountains and old forests.

Not only them, there are about thousands of Jiangdong Army who escaped from Wujin City. As long as they are not stupid, they all ran into the deep mountains and old forests to avoid Jiangdong Army after they couldn't find a boat by the river.

Day and night alternated, the sun soon showed its head, and it was dawn, and it was time for the Northern Han army to attack the city.

In Wujin City, in the last night alone, [-] Jiangdong soldiers deserted because they were afraid of the Northern Han Army, and Wujin City lost one-sixth of its soldiers and horses.

"Siege!"

Following Yuexi's order, one hundred thousand Northern Han troops attacked the north gate of Wujin City together. In half a day, the Northern Han army launched another attack, and the Jiangdong army resisted wave after wave of attacks. Both sides suffered heavy casualties.

In the morning, the Northern Han army failed to capture Wujin City, so Yuexi ordered the Northern Han army to retreat. After an hour's rest, Yuexi regrouped and launched a second round of attack.

The battle continued for another afternoon, and finally when the sun was halfway down, some Northern Han troops climbed to the top of Wujin City.

When the first person climbs up, the second person climbs up. It's like a dike break. The gap can't be blocked, but it gets bigger and bigger.

"Come on, everyone will go to me, no one will be left on the battlefield, and the whole army will attack!"

After taking down the north wall of Wujin City, Yuexi gave the last order, and the whole army charged.

Hundreds of thousands of Northern Han troops swarmed forward and rushed into Wujin City in one go. The Jiangdong Army in the city couldn't hold back and retreated like a tide.

Before night fell, the Northern Han army completely controlled Wujin City, and the price they paid was the loss of 1 people. After the Jiangdong Army lost more than 1 people, they fled to the riverside, but when they arrived at the riverside, they found that there was no Without boats, Sun Ce had cleared all the boats, not even a fishing boat, in order to prevent the Northern Han army from going south. Some Jiangdong army jumped into the river and vowed not to surrender to the Northern Han army, but most of the Jiangdong army chose to surrender. In World War I, the Jiangdong Army was wiped out again.

After cleaning the battlefield, the Northern Han Army stationed in Wujin City, waiting for the arrival of the Liaozhou Navy.
