Chapter 475 The long-lost fighting general, Xiahoulan VS Ling Tong!
The gate of Zhaoling City opens.
There were soldiers in Ling Tong's army, and they recognized several Jiangdong soldiers who opened the door, which made Ling Tong completely let down his guard.
But how did he know that these Jiangdong soldiers have now surrendered to Cao's army!
After Ling Tong led his army into Zhaoling City, he felt that something was wrong with the surrounding atmosphere.
"It's so quiet...it's even a little eerie!"
If he was an experienced general, it would be better for him to withdraw from the city immediately. However, Ling Tong was slightly inexperienced and relied on his own bravery, so he hesitated for a while.
Just such a moment of hesitation, Ling Tong completely lost the chance to escape!
“Dong dong dong!!!”
On the city wall, drums are beating loudly!
"kill!"
In the city, there are ambushes on all sides!
"There is an ambush!" Ling Tong panicked for a moment, but he quickly regained his sense and shouted: "Don't mess up! Fight out of the city first, I will break up the rear!!"
After Ling Tong personally stopped the attack, the soldiers behind him quickly calmed down.
This group of Jiangdong troops lived up to their reputation as the elite of Jiangdong. With the support of Pao Ze outside the city, they quickly broke through the ambush of the Zhaoling defenders and rushed out of the city.
It's a pity that escaping from the city does not mean escaping; rather, it is more like jumping from a boiling water pot into a boiling oil cauldron!
"Boom!!!"
"Dragon Cavalry, follow me and charge!"
"The Dragon Cavalry Army is invincible!"
There were approximately six to seven thousand Jiangdong troops who escaped from the city and those who had not yet had time to enter the city.
Jiangdong's army was crowded outside the city wall and at the city gate. Without the interference of friendly forces, the Dragoon Army had no worries.
"Liannu!"
"shoot!"
"Chu tu tu tu!!!"
Ling Tong was indeed extremely brave. Under the siege of dozens of Zhaoling defenders, he not only killed them all with minor injuries, but also rushed out of Zhaoling City with his personal guards who were also cut off.
However, when Ling Tong finally exited the city gate, he felt that the sky outside the city suddenly darkened for a moment!
“Puff puff puff!!!”
"Ahhhhh!!!"
Wherever the arrows passed, corpses lay everywhere!
Jiangdong Army's too dense front allowed the Dragoon Army to achieve extremely impressive results with this wave of arrows.
Of the thousands of Jiangdong troops outside the city, less than half of them fell, and this was even when the opponent was protected by shield soldiers!
Ling Tong had just experienced a bloody battle, and now his hair was disheveled and he looked a little embarrassed.
As soon as he left the city gate, he saw that a large area of his own soldiers had been harvested by Cao Jun's volley. Ling Tong, whose eyes were splitting, rode his war horse straight to the location of the enemy general without saying a word!
The troops led by Zhao Yun and Xia Houlan had just arrived and saw a young general rushing out of the Jiangdong Army array single-handedly...
Xia Houlan was about to order thousands of arrows to be fired at him, but Zhao Yun raised his hand to stop him and said, "Sir, I have instructions to capture as many as possible alive."
Pouting his lips, Xia Houlan replied: "Just watching him rush over like this? It's so embarrassing."
Zhao Yun suddenly smiled teasingly and said, "How about you go up and meet him?"
The generals of Cao's army have not fought against each other for a long time... After seeing the power of explosives and artillery, they have lost a lot of thoughts about fighting alone. No matter how good your martial arts skills are, you can't beat a few cannons. This feeling, ugh.
..It’s hard to describe in one word.
Xia Houlan drew his gun and attacked, preparing to fight Ling Tong.
Upon seeing this, the officers and soldiers of the Dragon Riding Battalion also stopped.
Just when Zhao Yun was thinking about whether he had something or not, Xia Houlan had already fought with Ling Tong.
One is the long-established General Cao Ying, and the other is a fledgling Jiangdong rookie.
Xia Houlan thought that it wouldn't take much effort to deal with such a young general...
But what Xiahoulan never expected was that Ling Tong was indeed the young general that both Sun Quan and Zhou Yu valued highly. He did not lose at all in the battle with Xiahoulan.
Xiahou Lan, who underestimated the enemy a little at the beginning, was accidentally attacked by Ling Tong.
After ten rounds of fighting, Ling Tong had the upper hand, leaving Xia Houlan to passively defend.
This is what Xia Houlan doesn't understand. Ling Tong is a typical crazy person who fights to the death and becomes braver the more he is injured.
In history, he followed Sun Quan to attack Hefei. After Sun Quan was unable to attack Hefei for a long time, he chose to withdraw. When he withdrew, the front troops of Sun Quan's army had already set off, but Wei general Zhang Liao and others suddenly appeared in the north of Tianjin and surrounded Sun Quan.
When Sun Quan was in danger, Ling Tong led 300 personal guards into the enemy siege and protected Sun Quan from breaking out.
After Sun Quan broke through the siege, Ling Tong unexpectedly turned around and fought again!
Until all the soldiers following him were killed, Ling Tong still refused to retreat and killed dozens of Cao soldiers... He did not retreat until Sun Quan was completely safe. However, Ling Tong was also seriously injured in the end. Thanks to Zhuo
Only good medicine can prevent death.
Now Ling Tong is full of hatred because he witnessed his soldiers being slaughtered by Cao's army. This hatred has also turned into motivation, making Ling Tong's current strength beyond normal levels.
Coupled with Ling Tong's tendency to fight to the death and become more courageous the more he kills, Xia Houlan accidentally fell into a disadvantage.
"Bang!" Ling Tong's another strong attack was blocked by Xia Houlan holding a gun with both hands. Ling Tong's eyes became even more blood red.
"Kill! Kill! I want to kill this general in front of me! I want to kill more of Cao Cao's generals!"
Ling Tong danced with the spear in his hand like a tiger, and the obsession in his heart made him become more and more courageous as he fought.
"The hatred for killing my father is irreconcilable!"
"Only by killing more generals from Cao Ying can I attract Gan Ning's attention!"
"I'm going to kill Gan Ning. I'm going to chop Gan Ning into minced meat and feed it to the bastard!"
Ling Tong, who had a burning heart for revenge, completely forgot about his fatigue and pain at this moment.
He just kept waving the iron-colored black tassel gun at Xiahoulan, stabbing and smashing Xiahoulan with all his strength!
In the eyes of the Jiangdong soldiers who were watching the battle from behind, Ling Tong had the upper hand, because the scene was that Ling Tong was completely suppressing Xia Houlan.
Thirty rounds later, Xiahoulan still defended more than he attacked.
In this situation, in the view of Jiangdong's soldiers, Ling Tong's victory was only a matter of time.
"Woo! Woo! Woo!"
Shouts and cheers continued to come from the military formation of Jiangdong's soldiers. The morale that had been extremely low due to the ambush before was now high again.
Cheng Wu in the city was puzzled as to why the Dragon Cavalry Army gave up an all-out attack and chose to fight as generals instead... However, Zhao Yun and Xia Houlan had much higher official positions than him, so Cheng Wu could only suppress his doubts and lead the army.
The guards need to guard the city first.
It's always been quiet here at Longqi Camp.
But this was not because Xiahou Lan was at a disadvantage, which caused the morale of the Dragon Cavalry soldiers to be low.
This is because the soldiers of the Dragon Riding Battalion know that even if Xiahou Lan is defeated, they still have an invincible general, Zhao Zilong!
"Thief general, take a shot from me!"
After more than ten rounds of fighting, Ling Tong, who was still unable to break the stalemate, took a shot at Xia Houlan at the risk of injury!
But after this period of defense, Xia Houlan had basically figured out Ling Tong's attack routine.
Although this young man is indeed good at martial arts, he only relies on the bloody courage inspired by the anger in his heart, which cannot last long.
After all, Ling Tong had been trained by so many famous generals, and he would not fail against one Ling Tong.
In addition, Xia Houlan had practiced innate skills, and the energy in his body was constantly flowing... After fifty rounds, Ling Tong was already a little tired, but Xia Houlan felt that he had just moved his body...
When Ling Tong's moves were exhausted, Xia Houlan deflected Ling Tong's spear with one shot.
However, Xia Houlan did not take the opportunity to counterattack. Instead, he moved his body and said to the slightly surprised Ling Tong: "You are already tired, but I have just warmed up!"
Ling Tong's eyes suddenly changed!
Xia Houlan held the iron spear at an angle and said to Ling Tong: "Are you ready? Now it's my turn to attack!"
