The sound of the military drum was getting closer and closer, and the beats were invisibly urging Han Zhong.
"Never mind! Hurry up and order Sun Xia to lead the army to guard the southwest and transport all the rolling logs!" In such a hurry, Han Zhong had no time to think and had to give the order hastily.
"Yes!" Several yellow scarves rushed out.
Everyone in Wancheng was awakened by the sound of military drums, feeling as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
A group of people and horses, together with rolling wood, rushed to the southwest city head under the leadership of Sun Xia.
Under the mist, you can faintly see the corners of the commander's flag and the looming Han soldiers in armor, but nothing else can be seen clearly!
The military drums were getting louder and louder, but Sun Xia, who was on top of the southwest city, never saw any Han soldiers approaching, so he cursed: "This damn fog!"
At the same time, in the northeast corner of Wancheng, the Han army quietly approached under the cover of fog. No drums were played, and everyone moved lightly.
When he was very close to Wancheng, Zhu Jun gave instructions to the flag and drum officials beside him. The sound of military drums sounded in the northeast corner, and the drums on both sides merged into one in Wancheng.
When the drums sounded, the ladder was launched from the military formation, breaking through the heavy fog.
The Yellow Turban Army guarding the northeast corner saw clearly the situation below when the fog broke, and they glared with murderous eyes! The Han troops were neatly arranged!
"Quick! Go and tell Qu Shuai!"
The ladder successfully reached the city wall of Wancheng. Han Zhong's decision just now caused the rolling logs in Wancheng to be transported continuously to the southwest corner, which is farthest from the northeast corner.
At this moment, the soldiers guarding the city had nothing to do except panic. They could only watch the Han army build ladders and climb the city wall.
Sun Jian was as brave as yesterday and was the first to rush up the ladder!
At this moment, Han Zhong also received the news, "What! There are also Han troops in the northeast corner!"
Han Zhong was completely panicked. If two armies really attacked the city, Wancheng would definitely not be able to be saved!
"Can you see clearly who is leading the army in the northeast corner?" Han Zhong grabbed the yellow scarf boy and asked.
"The leader is the murderer who killed Zhao Qushuai on the tower yesterday!"
At this time, another yellow scarf broke in and said, "Commander Qu, the Han army in the southwest corner has been beating drums for a long time but did not attack the city. General Sun asked what to do?"
The two pieces of information were combined in Han Zhong's mind, and he was so angry that he punched the table! "I was deceived by Zhu Jun!"
"Hurry up and ask Sun Xia to bring the army and rolling wood back to the northeast corner to help!"
Only then did Han Zhong realize that Zhu Jun had used the tactic of suspicion during the foggy time of daybreak. The southwest corner was clearly his, and he had just rushed to the southwest corner in the dark in order to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
Han Zhong's guess was good. Zhu Jun and others discussed for a day yesterday and finally finalized the siege plan. Qin Jie led the troops and horses to the southwest corner in the dark. They marched in a hurry all night. The sergeants' physical strength declined so much that they were unable to attack the city at this moment.
Zhu Jun and Sun Jian moved to the northeast corner, and after Qin Jie transferred the tigers away from the mountain, they led the army to quietly attack the city. As long as the city tower was controlled, the Yellow Turbans would never be able to recover today!
Sun Jian was the first to ascend the tower. He looked at the evasive eyes of the yellow scarves around him, and felt funny in his heart. He swung the knife in his hand repeatedly, and no one was his enemy!
Without the interference of the rolling logs, there were only a limited number of soldiers guarding the northeast corner. The Han army continuously climbed up the city wall via ladders to fight with the Yellow Turban Army.
Sun Xia also received the news and hurriedly led his army towards the northeast corner.
Han Zhong couldn't sit still anymore, so he put on his armor and took a sword to join the army.
On the northeast corner of the city tower, the Han army already had the upper hand and guarded every crenellation of the city wall, ensuring safety for the following Han army.
The Yellow Turbans were beaten to the point where only the remaining defeated generals were left, and no general took the lead. I don't know who escaped first, which attracted everyone to follow suit and rush towards the bottom of the city tower!
"Chase! Don't let anyone go!" Sun Jian naturally would not let go of such an opportunity and led his army to charge.
When they reached the bottom of the city tower, the Yellow Turbans had already disappeared without a trace, so Sun Jian could only lead people to open the city gate first.
When Zhu Jun saw the city gate wide open, he drew out his Han sword and pointed it out, "Enter the city! If you see any bandits, you will be killed without mercy!"
"Charge! Kill!" A group of Han soldiers entered the city loudly, and the sound of tens of thousands of people stepping on the ground could be felt throughout Wancheng!
"No!" Han Zhong stopped suddenly. He and Sun Xia led the army halfway, "This is a shock! The Han army may have broken through the southwest corner!"
"Ah? Attacked? What to do?" Sun Xia panicked after hearing this. The terrain in the city was no better than that of the plains, and the deployment of troops was limited. In this case, if he fought with the Han army, he would basically have to wait for death.
Not to mention that Zhu Jun still has hundreds of cavalry under his command. When the time comes to charge, the Yellow Turbans will have no choice but to be slaughtered!
Han Zhong did not hesitate. At this moment, he just wanted to escape and avoid a head-on battle with the Han army!
"When you enter the small town, you have to be fast!"
Wancheng is a large city, but it was not a large city built at the beginning, but a small city that was gradually expanded, with a structure of a city within a city.
"Enter the small town? What about the brothers outside?" Sun Xia asked at this time.
"What time has it been! Do you still care about others?" Han Zhong asked back, and then said to the army following the two of them: "Enter the small town quickly, don't take anything with you! Hurry up!"
The army quickly turned around and marched toward the small town following Han Zhong's order.
Han Zhong looked at Sun Xia, who was still a little stunned, and hurriedly stepped forward to give him a hand, "Let's go quickly!"
After Zhu Jun's cavalry entered the city, they were like fierce tigers crossing the mountain. They caught the Yellow Turbans on the street and killed them with one knife. The remaining Yellow Turban thieves throughout Wancheng were chased like dogs and cats.
"Sun Jian, quickly lead the army to the southwest corner to seize the city gate and welcome the Qin governor into the city!" Zhu Jun did not forget Qin Jie who was still beating the drum in the southwest corner at this moment.
"Here!" Sun Jian took the order and led an army towards the southwest corner.
The opposite of the Yellow Turbans are the people in Wancheng. They have been enslaved by the Yellow Turbans for more than a hundred days. Today, they finally managed to see the moonlight after the clouds cleared!
Under such chaos in Wancheng, the people did not stay at home, but went out one by one, voluntarily knelt on the streets, and kowtowed to the Han soldiers.
"The imperial court finally sent someone to rescue us!"
"God has eyes!"
"Pity my poor daughter, she will never come back!"
Voices of thanks and complaints echoed throughout Wancheng at this moment.
Zhu Jun looked at the people kneeling and kowtowing all over the street. He couldn't hold back his tears for a moment. Men don't shed tears easily, but they are not sad yet!
"Fathers and fellow citizens of Wancheng! Everyone, please get up! It is my incompetence, Zhu Jun, that makes you suffer so much!" Zhu Jun got off his horse and said loudly.
At this moment, the common people were a little stunned. They had lived here since they were children. Living in this era, the respect between officials and people is engraved in their bones, and it is also the most basic rule of this world.
A person like Zhu Jun who leads an army must be a high-ranking official, but he is blaming himself at this moment. This kind of scene is unheard of and unseen!
Fortunately, a man who had obviously read the book came out and said, "General Zhu, stop talking! I don't blame you for this, as long as you come!"
It can be seen that this man is very famous in Wancheng. When he speaks out, the people all agree with him.
"Yes, General, just come!"
"It's all these thieves who have harmed us. The general can't be blamed."
This was the moment of excitement, and Sun Jian led the army to the southwest corner unimpeded.
"Kill! Leave no one behind!" After saying this, Sun Jian set an example and was the first to rush up to the southwest tower.
Before Sun Xia left, he separated some people to stay in the southwest corner. The leading Yellow Turbans listened to the drums all morning and didn't even see the Han army, so they naturally became a little relaxed.
The moment he turned back, he caught a glimpse of red, and then he saw the whole picture clearly, it was the God of Death yesterday!
He thought he had seen it wrong, rubbed his eyes, and suddenly became shocked: "It's the God of Death! It's the God of Death!"
The panicked and urgent sounds caused the Yellow Turban defenders to turn their heads, and when they saw it was Sun Jian, they heard a series of frightened sounds.
Sun Jian showed no mercy, stepped forward and hacked to death the two yellow scarves closest to him.
Blood was spilled, and the entire city tower was in panic. They wanted to escape through another passage, but as soon as they passed by, they saw a large number of Han troops coming up.
The Yellow Turbans in the southwest corner were attacked from both sides and were flanked in the middle.
"We are willing to surrender! We are willing to surrender!" The leader of the Yellow Turban saw with his own eyes the scene of Sun Jian killing Zhao Hong on the East City yesterday. He couldn't even resist in his heart. He was the first to throw away his weapon and kneel on the ground.
said.
The leaders surrendered, and the rest naturally knelt down, threw down their weapons, and begged to surrender without further ado.
Sun Jian remained calm, neither saying he accepted nor saying he would not accept. He signaled to the Han soldiers behind him to come forward and collect everyone's weapons first!
The leader of the Yellow Turban was overjoyed, and his frightened face was instantly replaced by a flattering look. In his opinion, Sun Jian accepted his surrender. He handed the weapon to the Han army who came to collect it and looked at Sun Jian with a smile.
As if to say, do you think I am sensible?
Naturally, Sun Jian ignored them. After spending some time collecting all the weapons from everyone, Sun Jian sneered and said, "Kill them all and leave no one behind!"
The flattering expression of the leader in yellow turban froze for an instant, and then he looked like he had seen a ghost, "My lord! My lord! You have accepted our surrender, you can't kill us!"
All that was left for him was the back of a red cloak!
The remnants of the Yellow Turbans without weapons had no resistance at all. They were slaughtered by the Han army on the city wall. The fresh blood covered the entire floor, and it was so red that it was weird and dizzying!
The heavy fog has also dissipated. Qin Jie outside the southwest city smiled when he saw that the Wancheng city was replaced with a big flag with the word "Zhu"! From March to now, this big stone has finally been solved
!
The city gate was also opened, and Sun Jian stood at the city gate and shouted loudly: "Prefect Qin! Enter the city!"
Qin Jie led his soldiers into Wancheng, "Sun Sima can be said to have attacked the city and conquered all the strongholds!"
He was unable to capture the city after being besieged for so long. After seeing Sun Jian's performance on the city top yesterday, he was shocked. Today's attack on the city was also extremely fast!
Sun Jian was also in a good mood! "The Governor of Qin is so ridiculous! Without the Governor of Qin to divert the tiger away from the mountain, no matter how brave Wentai is, we will not be able to capture Wancheng!"
