Yan Zheng still has some means, although his soldiers are just drunkards and have nothing to show for themselves. They are either sons of rich families or former officials, in order to get some close capital in the army so that they can become higher officials.
How could I have seen such a world? It is more than enough to bully the people, but even dealing with a civilian is very difficult.
Yan Zheng blocked the defeated soldiers with a slashing attack, and then shouted to the panicked people: "You are all from Jiangyang. When those people come in, you should know what Jiangyang will look like! So we
We must stop them, and let me tell you another good news. The military advisor has led the army to come in person. As long as we defend until dark, Jiangyang will be saved!"
Some of the children of the aristocratic families were quite enthusiastic. After listening to Yan Zheng's words, they seemed to see hope again. They all started to yell again, clamoring to defend Jiangyang. Some people were not so confident. That was the Dragon Army outside the city. This group of people
Although I have never seen a battle, I have heard about it. Guan Yu's 50,000-strong army was wiped out in Kuiguan without any effort. He had at most 10,000 troops in the city.
Yan Zheng glanced at those people: "Look at you, aren't you just 10,000 troops and horses? The art of war is as follows: surround an enemy twice as much, and attack it ten times as much! Their current troops and horses are the same as ours, and we have such high capabilities."
The wall can be defended, so what are you afraid of? If anyone dares to back down, those are their role models!" Holding the bloody sword in his hand, he pointed at his own people who had been hacked to death.
The soldiers were silent, and Yan Zheng had an angry look on his face: "You are all from Jiangyang. No matter whether you can hold it or not, you have to hold it. Just hold it until dark! Now follow me to the city!"
Xu Huang and Hua Xiong were a little surprised by the sudden appearance of Liu Bei's army on top of the city. They thought that the battle was over, and they didn't care at all whether the soldiers in the city ran away or surrendered. Their purpose
That is to capture Jiangyang. The sharp attack just now did not frighten the courage of those people, so we had to use force.
Hua Xiong laughed loudly: "This is interesting. Fighting with those spineless people is not interesting at all. Brothers, copycats, come on!"
The archers were still firing arrows, and the city was almost full of arrows, which were as lush as weeds. Yan Zheng and his soldiers were hiding in hiding places. As long as the arrows stopped, it would naturally be a bloodbath. He tightened his grip again.
Yan Zheng swallowed. It would be a lie to say he was not afraid, but he did not want to die cowardly like Yan Yan. He had to give the Yan family a reputation.
Yan Zheng is in his fifties this year. He is the eldest son of Yan Yan. He has always been by Yan Yan's side. Although he has no official position, he is the eldest son of the Yan family. Apart from Yan Yan, he has the greatest prestige in Jiangyang City. The arrow rain has just stopped.
After getting off, Yan Yan immediately stood up: "Quick, quick, quick! Get ready, they are coming!"
Before he finished speaking, a city climbing ladder suddenly appeared on the city wall in front of Yan Zheng. As the ladder swayed, a dragon soldier wearing a helmet popped up from under the city. This city climbing ladder is the most primitive and simple one.
There are some rungs between the two long wooden sticks, and the soldiers can help them climb up. Yan Zheng targeted the head, waved the sword in his hand, and chopped it down with all his strength.
"On guard, on guard! Don't let them come up!" Yan Zheng shouted.
He cut very hard, and he heard a crisp sound in his ears. His sword seemed to have struck a stone. His arms were numb from the shock, and he felt that both arms were about to be broken. Hua Xiong climbed up to the top of the city in one step, and swung
Waving his hands: "You still have some energy! The attack is ruthless!"
Yan Zheng hurriedly took two steps back, and the two servants around him stood in front of Yan Zheng. Looking at the big black man in front of him, Yan Zheng was a little scared. He was panicking in his heart, but he was not at all forgiving: "Kill him! Hurry up!
kill him!"
The two servants wielded their swords and went straight to Hua Xiong. Hua Xiong swung his sword away, swung it left and right, and knocked their swords away twice, followed by two more strikes. The two servants didn't even shout.
After making a sound, Hua Xiong chopped him in half alive. Blood spattered all over Yan Zheng's body. Yan Zheng's hands were trembling, and the sword pointed at Hua Xiong and he kept retreating.
Although Jiangyang City was somewhat prepared, the soldiers were helpless. Not only did Hua Xiong make a breakthrough, there were also many dragon armies from other places who attacked the city wall. As the number of dragon armies increased, the scene on top of the city became a little scary.
.Those children from aristocratic families who shouted the loudest, many of them vomited to the point of being vomited, let alone carrying swords to fight.
Xu Huang shook his head slightly, waved his hand, and suddenly a group of cavalry rushed out from the rear left. Behind the cavalry was dragging a big stone tied with rattan. This group of cavalry beat their horses like flying and went straight to Jiangyang City Gate. They arrived at the city gate.
, suddenly turning a corner, the war horse rushed down along the base of the city wall, dragging the boulder behind it without losing speed under the huge force, and headed towards the city gate.
"Boom!" The huge sound made Jiangyang's city gate tremble. The whole door frame shook a little. The cavalry's horse speed did not slow down, and they made a large circle and approached Jiangyang's city gate again. They went back and forth like this three or four times.
The boulder broke away from the vines and flew straight towards the city gate. How could the city gate, which was already dying, withstand this blow? Under the huge impact of the boulder, a large hole was smashed out of the city gate. Splinters of wood were mixed with the city gate.
The blood and flesh of the soldiers were splashed in the city, and the cry and fear swallowed up the entire Jiangyang.
"Come again!" A small hole showed how the cavalry entered the city. Xu Huang waved again, and another group of cavalry rushed out from the right, still dragging a big stone behind them.
"My lord! This is bad! The city gate can no longer be defended!" Some soldiers hurriedly climbed up the city wall and shouted loudly at Yan Zheng.
When Hua Xiong heard this, he looked at Yan Zheng: "Oh? So you are their leader. I heard that the guard Yan Yan is an old man, but I didn't expect that he is not very old! Just in time, if I catch you, the battle will be over!
"
Yan Zheng looked around and saw that his own people on the top of the city were suffering heavy casualties. Judging from their uniforms, the majority of the dragon army in black clothes and black armor accounted for it. Only a few of his soldiers resisted. Most of them were killed when they saw the dragon army.
Jun immediately turned around and ran away. Now that he thought of his father's words, he seemed to understand something. Jiangyang is the foundation of the Yan family, and no one can destroy it. It doesn't matter whether he surrenders or endures the humiliation! In short, as long as he is for the Yan family, Lao Yanyan
I am willing to do whatever I want.
Hua Xiong slashed at him, and Yan Zheng hurriedly raised his sword to meet him. He heard a crisp sound in his ears, and his own sword, the sword his father had given him back then, was cut into two sections. Hua Xiong's sword force
Unabated, just before Yan Zheng wanted to say the word surrender, he watched helplessly as the blade fell on top of his head.
"Poof!" It was like a piece of cotton being torn from the middle. I felt neither pain nor sadness. All time seemed to have stopped, and it became very, very slowly."
"The sword will save you! The sword will save you!" Lao Yanyan climbed up the stairs with the help of two servants. The old man was old. He ran away from home, and all kinds of bad news came one after another along the way.
When the news reached his ears, he had already realized that something was wrong. He hurriedly hurriedly rushed to the city wall, but it was still a step too late. As soon as he climbed up the city wall, he saw Hua Xiong's broadsword split his son in half. The old man fell headlong before he could even get up.
Fall to the ground.
The father and son of the Yan family died one after another on the city. Jiangyang's army was leaderless and was already scared to death. This was a good opportunity to escape. They all put down their weapons and turned around and ran away. Even the two servants who helped old Yan Yan up,
He ran down the city regardless of it. The dragon army gave chase, and the Jiangyang soldiers who were killed cried for their fathers and mothers. The whole Jiangyang city seemed to be boiling, and all kinds of terrifying screams filled Jiangyang.
"Report..., Military Advisor, something seems wrong in Jiangyang! Long Fei's army is attacking Jiangyang!"
"What?" Ma Liang was shocked: "How many people are there?"
"There are about ten thousand people, all cavalry. They arrived in Jiangyang in the afternoon and are now fighting Jiangyang soldiers!"
"Ten thousand cavalry? Is Long Fei crazy? He is so sure? Can ten thousand cavalry capture Jiangyang?" Ma Liang turned around and looked at Sun Qian: "Jiang Yang Yan Yan also has 10,000 troops, and
How can the cavalry be used to attack the city while it is still in the city?"
Sun Qian also nodded: "This is indeed a bit strange. Using cavalry to attack a city is really unheard of."
After the discussion, both of them looked at Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang shook his head slightly: "Send the order, the fleet speeds up, let Meng Da rush to Jiangyang as soon as possible. Since Long Fei dares to do this, he must be sure, and Jiangyang must not be lost!"
The messenger agreed and ran down immediately. Although it was not certain that Long Fei's cavalry would definitely be able to capture Jiangyang, Long Fei's targeting of Jiangyang showed that Long Fei was bound to win. Although Jiangyang is a small town, it has a very strategic position.
Importantly, it can be regarded as the dividing point between the north, south and east of Yizhou. With Jiangyang as a natural port, it is easy to go north, south, east and west. Who allows Jiangyang waterways to run freely?
"Military advisor, are you so sure that Long Fei can capture Jiangyang without our help?" Ma Liang always felt that attacking Jiangyang with only 10,000 cavalry was a bit of a dream. There must be a reason for this: "Could it be Long Fei?"
Fei deliberately used a deception method to sneak attack Chengdu from another way? We want to have a decisive battle with Long Fei in Jiangzhou, but Long Fei may not be willing!"
Sun Qiandao: "It is indeed possible. Shouldn't we just take the road of Deyang? If Long Fei is like us, it will be useless for us to fight desperately to recapture Jiangyang."
Zhuge Liang shook his head: "No, I still know Long Fei. Although he is good at using soldiers and making strange moves, he has one shortcoming: he is too lazy. He will never let go of a good opportunity to annihilate us in one fell swoop. We
If the decisive battle is to take place in Jiangzhou, Long Fei must be waiting in Jiangzhou!"
Ma Liang and Sun Qian didn't speak anymore, they just looked at each other and then shrank back. Zhuge Liang paced back and forth in the cabin, and after a while he asked again: "How long will it take for our army to reach Jiangyang? Meng
Da may not be able to capture Jiangyang!"
"Attack? Not reinforcements?" Ma Liang still responded quickly enough.
Zhuge Liang shook his head: "If my guess is correct, Long Fei's battle flag will already be flying on the top of Jiangyang City at this time!"
