Chapter 547 Just do it and it’s over
Wei Yan was immediately amazed and cried.
It was you who encouraged me to ask the military advisor, but why did I become anxious?
At this moment, a soldier quickly walked in from outside the tent.
"Your military advisors, generals, the Jiangdong warships on the Yangtze River suddenly set off their sails and left!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the tent was filled with energy!
Pang Tong stroked his beard and said with a smile,
"It must be that the general succeeded in attacking Jianye, and Sun Quan was forced to return to the army to rescue him!"
"Military advisor, what are we waiting for? Just do it!"
Ma Chao was ready to rub his hands, and his eyes were flashing!
"No hurry, let's wait for a moment to make sure Sun Quan has indeed left, and we will attack the city again!"
Pang Tong ordered.
Everyone has been waiting for a few days, and it is not a bad time.
So they waited patiently and confirmed that the Jiangdong warships had indeed left and would not come back, and immediately began to prepare for siege!
Chaisang City.
Although he was besieged by Cao's army, Cheng Pu still did not panic.
He had already received the news that Sun Quan's reinforcements were waiting for the opportunity on the Yangtze River.
As long as Cao's army dared to attack the city, Sun Quan would launch an attack from the flanks.
He was patrolling the city with several generals under him to avoid any trouble.
At this moment, Ding Feng, who was in charge of the defense of the city, rushed over.
As soon as he saw Cheng Pu, he shouted,
"Left Governor, the Cao army outside the city has been in motion!"
Cheng Pu was slightly stunned, without hesitation, and immediately took everyone to the city wall.
When he reached the top of the city, he looked out.
As Ding Feng said, the Cao army outside the city had gathered together and seemed to be ready to attack the city at any time!
"Strange, what did Cao's army think? Aren't they afraid of being attacked on both sides?"
The military general Ma Zhong said in confusion.
"Can the Cao army rely on something?"
Pan Zhang also frowned.
Cheng Pu's face was as deep as water, and he could not see any fluctuations, and he said lightly,
"No matter what conspiracy Cao's army has, we need to be prepared to defend the city! Pass the order and prepare to deal with Cao's army's attack!"
"Here!"
The soldiers clasped their fists and took the order and left.
After everyone else left, Cheng Pu looked at Cao Jun with swords and flags flying outside the city, his eyes full of deep fear.
Although Pang Tong's ability is not as good as Yang Ling, he is also skilled in military tactics and uses troops as much as a god.
He could not have known that attacking Chaisang might be attacked by Sun Quan on the flanks.
But since he dared to do this, he must have relied on what Pan Zhang said!
What is his reliance?
Before Cheng Pu could figure out the twists and turns, the Cao army outside the city had already started the first wave of attack!
Several large-caliber artillery were slowly pushed to the city of Chaisang by Cao's army.
Seeing this, Cheng Pu's expression changed!
He naturally heard Liu Bei and others mention it, saying how terrifying the artillery of Cao's army was!
"Everyone retreats from the city wall!"
Cheng Pu did not dare to neglect and immediately ordered.
Fortunately, the Jiangdong Army had already predicted in advance that the Cao army would use artillery to attack the city.
There were not many soldiers on the top of the city. After receiving Cheng Pu's order, they quickly retreated.
After a while, after debugging, Cao's cannons began to roar.
"Bang!Bang!Bang..."
The cannon was like an angry giant beast, making waves of roars.
What followed was the sound of bombardment of shells falling on the city wall!
The Jiangdong Army hiding in the city even felt the earth trembling slightly!
Although they are all elites trained by Cheng Pu, they still show fear in the face of this epoch-making terrifying firearm!
Seeing this, Cheng Pu hurriedly said steadily,
"Don't panic, Marquis Wu is on the river! As long as Cao's army attacks the city, Marquis Wu will send troops to rescue us!"
Hearing this, the soldiers' faces looked much better.
Chaisang was far less solid than Jiangling. Under the bombardment of artillery, the city wall began to collapse on a large scale without even two hours under the bombardment of artillery.
"Bailout camp, clear the ruins!"
Pang Tong, who was in charge of the army, ordered in a deep voice.
When the artillery stopped roaring, the soldiers of the baggage battalion who had been waiting for a long time immediately rushed to the city wall under the cover of other battalions and began to clean up the ruins.
Not long after, they cleared a road in the ruins!
"General Meng Qi, I'll leave it to you!"
Pang Tong nodded to Ma Chao.
Ma Chao took out the spear and said sternly,
"Soldiers from Meng's camp will follow me into the city!"
"Here!"
Three thousand soldiers from the Meng camp responded loudly.
Wei Yan, who was standing beside him, said loudly,
"Brothers of Wenzi Camp, don't let the brothers of Mengzi Camp take the lead!"
The soldiers of Wenzi Camp also responded with a loud bang.
As the pioneers, the soldiers of the two battalions rushed into Chaisang City like a tide under the leadership of Ma Chao and Wei Yan.
As early as the roar of artillery stopped, Cheng Pu and others knew that Cao's army was about to enter the city!
Fortunately, they were prepared for it. All the houses next to the city wall had been demolished, leaving only a large area of open space.
The soldiers of the Jiangdong Army led by Cheng Pu, Ding Feng and Pan Zhang hid in the houses.
"Boom..."
With heavy footsteps sounded, Cao's soldiers appeared in the sight of Jiangdong Army.
"Shoot the arrow!"
Cheng Pu shouted loudly.
In an instant, countless arrows flew out of the houses like locusts and shot towards Cao's army!
However, the Cao army soldiers in the front row were covered in armor and even held huge shields in their hands.
The rest of the soldiers were hidden behind them!
The arrows fell on the giant shield jingling, but they could not hurt Cao Jun in the slightest.
In the blink of an eye, Cao's army had advanced less than ten steps away from the Jiangdong Army.
Just as the soldiers of the Jiangdong Army were ready to fight with the Cao army, they saw countless pots flying out of the Cao army.
When the clay pot broke and the black liquid overturned the ground, Cheng Pu's face changed drastically when he smelled the pungent smell.
"No, it's hot turmeric!"
The next moment, countless rockets were shot from Cao's army formation!
When these rockets landed on the harsh turbulent oil, a raging fire broke out instantly!
A moment later, the house where Jiangdong Army was hiding was shrouded in a fire!
They screamed and wailed, and escaped from the houses.
Some of the soldiers of the Jiangdong Army who had no time to escape turned into firemen and made shrill screams!
For a moment, the houses were filled with the aroma of barbecue and screams!
The soldiers of the Jiangdong Army who survived by chance were also frightened by the tragic situation of their companions.
However, before they could finish the rectification, Cao's army had already reached a close place.
Ma Chao and Wei Yan were the first to lead the way, waving their weapons, and rushed to the nearest place with one horse.
The two of them cut down several enemy troops one after another, and then shouted loudly,
"I am Ma Chao, Xiliang Jin!
"I am Wei Yan of Yiyang!"
