Although Sun Ce usually seems a little irritable, at critical moments, he has a delicate mind that is no less than that of his father. Hearing Sun Ce's words, Huang Gai felt happy in his heart. He couldn't help but sigh that his lord has a successor. Even though he clasped his fists at Sun Ce and said
: "The young master is wise! The general has learned a lesson!"
Sun Ce smiled faintly, turned around and looked forward, but frowned again, as if something was wrong. He asked Huang Gai beside him: "General Huang! Look at the city in front, something seems wrong!"
"Ah?" Hearing what Sun Ce said, Huang Gai couldn't help but be stunned. Then he immediately turned his head and looked towards the top of the city. The gate of the camp where Huang Gai was located was relatively far away from Nanyang City in front. Huang Gai was older.
, but it is not as good as Sun Ce’s eyesight. After looking for a long time, he still didn’t understand what was wrong. He could only turn his head to look at Sun Ce and said: “Young Master, the general’s eyesight is not good, so he can’t see clearly.
What's wrong?"
"Tsk!" Sun Ce frowned and snorted with a gloomy face, but he immediately clapped his horse forward. Huang Gai didn't dare to delay when he saw it, and hurriedly chased after him. He thought Sun Ce was deliberately looking for someone.
On the pretext of going to the battlefield, Sun Ce kept shouting while chasing him. Sun Ce must have been annoyed by his shouting. Although he did not stop, he turned back to Huang Gai and shouted: "General Huang! The number of enemies on the city wall is wrong!
"
"The number is wrong?" Huang Gai was stunned again. At this moment, he was already chasing Sun Ce and was about to arrive at the military formation. When he looked up, it was true! Unlike yesterday, there were actually densely packed people standing on top of the city.
! At a glance, there were at least two to three thousand people! Huang Gai was immediately stunned and muttered: "This, this, how is this possible?"
But Sun Ce no longer cared about Huang Gai. He quickly chased after Dong Xi and shouted: "Yuan Dynasty! Stay! Stay! There is something wrong!"
At this time, Dong Xi had already led the army to the front of Nanyang City. He was about to order the army to attack, but was stopped by Sun Ce's shout. Dong Xi turned his head and watched Sun Ce rush to his side.
He asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Young Master? What's wrong with you? What's going on?"
Sun Ce pointed to the top of the city with a gloomy face and said to Dong Xi: "Yuan Dynasty! Look! The number of enemy troops on the top of the city is wrong!"
"Huh?" Dong Xi's reaction was the same as Huang Gai's just now. His face was stunned. He raised his head and looked towards the top of the city. When he saw the strange thing on the top of the city, he suddenly looked shocked and exclaimed: "This
How is that possible? Have these defenders always hidden so many troops in the city before?"
"Impossible!" Sun Ce immediately rejected Dong Xi's speculation and said in a deep voice: "If there are always so many troops in Nanyang City, there is no need for them to hide. Wouldn't it be that those soldiers were sacrificed in vain? So?
There is only one possibility, and that is that these extra defenders must have just appeared!"
"That's even more impossible!" Dong Xi quickly shook his head in denial and said, "It's absolutely impossible for so many people to enter the city without our knowledge!" Although they brought the army to Nanyang City,
No scouts were sent to investigate, but it was reasonable for a dozen people to abscond, but it would definitely be impossible for thousands of people to escape!
Sun Ce frowned, glanced at the top of the city, gritted his teeth, and hummed: "It doesn't matter so much! At this point in the battle, it's impossible for us to retreat! Yuan Dynasty! Let's go! Even if it's so much!
It's a forceful attack! We must also capture Nanyang City!" As he said that, Sun Ce waved his Overlord Spear, his face full of fighting spirit, and a hot aura instantly burst out from his body.
, which is impressively the kind of momentum only a top master can possess!
That's right! Although Sun Ce is young, he is better than his master. His father, Sun Jian, has not reached the level of a top master, but Sun Ce has now reached it! It can be said that under Sun Jian, Sun Ce's martial arts is the strongest.
!
Hearing Sun Ce's words, Dong Xi was not a shy person. He nodded sharply, raised his sword and swung it forward, roaring at the soldiers on the left and right: "Brothers! Charge! Whoever captures the city will be rewarded!"
One hundred taels of gold! Promotion to the third level!" Under heavy reward, there must be brave men. Dong Xi certainly understood this truth. The success or failure of the battle of Nanyang depends on this! Only by throwing out more bait can the soldiers be encouraged to fight bravely.
Enemy! Sure enough, under the temptation of huge profits, this army composed of Yangzhou Army and Yuzhou Army finally began to break out! With shouts of killing, they began to attack the city wall crazily!
"Young Master!" At this time, Huang Gai also rushed over, stopped directly beside Sun Ce, and said to Sun Ce: "Young Master! This Nanyang City is full of evil, why don't we retreat first?"
"No!" Sun Ce, who had always obeyed Huang Gaiyan before, refused extremely firmly this time. He stared at the military flag with the word "Luo" on the top of the city and shouted in a deep voice: "General Huang! This time in Nanyang
The war is related to the prospect of my father's great cause! Luo Yang has a grudge against us. If we can't take advantage of this moment to cut off Luo Yang's escape and kill Luo Yang! Then sooner or later Luo Yang will come to us to settle Jiangdong's debt! Besides, this battle
It’s not that we have no chance of winning! When it’s time to fight, we still have to fight!”
"Young Master!" Huang Gai looked at Sun Ce's firm profile, as if he were looking at Sun Jian who was on the battlefield. He sighed secretly in his heart, and no longer tried to dissuade Sun Ce. Instead, he clasped his fists at Sun Ce and shouted with determination:
"Young Master! If that's the case! Then please allow me to go out to fight!"
"Hahahaha!" After hearing Huang Gai's invitation to fight, Sun Ce smiled up to the sky and shouted: "General Huang! It's not just you who are going to fight this time! All three of us are going to fight! In short, we are going all out this time! I want to see it
Isn't this Nanyang City an iron wall? It's really so unbreakable!" After saying that, Sun Ce clamped his legs and rushed up with the soldiers. Huang Gai and Dong Xi also looked at each other and smiled, followed Sun Ce.
I’m also catching up!
At the same time, on the top of the city, Cheng Yu and Le Jin both looked at the army outside the city with solemn expressions. Cheng Yu showed a hint of approval on his face and said, "I didn't expect that their generals are really capable."
What a courage! You dare to charge forward like this! I thought they would be scared to retreat when they saw we had so many extra troops!"
Le Jin also nodded and said: "According to the intelligence, the commander who came to attack the city this time is Sun Jian's eldest son Sun Ce! This man is extremely courageous. When Sun Jian attacked Yangzhou and Yuzhou, this son could not stand
Shao Qigong! He has the title of Little Overlord! When I saw him today, he is indeed worthy of his reputation! He is really a formidable young man! Mr. Cheng! Do you think we can stop their offensive?"
When Le Jin asked, Cheng Yu was speechless for a while. After a long time, he sighed and replied: "I can't answer General Le's question! Judging from the situation, it should be us
We have the upper hand! However, the thousands of extra troops we have are all civilians summoned temporarily and have not received any military training! If a fight breaks out later, I am afraid they will not be able to exert much combat effectiveness! Now we can only hope that they can
Buy us more time until General Gao Shun comes for reinforcements!" Cheng Yu said while looking behind him.
What stands behind Cheng Yu is the result of these two days of hard work. Three days ago, Cheng Yu ordered people to post notices in the city, paying large sums of money to recruit strong men in the city to assist the defenders in defending the city. At the beginning, this approach
The results were minimal. There was no other way. No one was a fool. How could anyone let go of the peaceful life and die on the battlefield? However, Cheng Yu refused to give up. He first found several big households in the city, but he didn't know what Cheng Yu meant to them.
After saying something, in short, on the next day, these big families sent their own young men to be owned by Cheng Yu. At the same time, a rumor spread in the city, saying that after the enemies outside the city broke through Nanyang City, they
A large number of people will be plundered to open up wasteland in Yangzhou and Yuzhou! By then, there will be no chickens or dogs left in Nanyang City!
In the past few years, under the governance of Huang Zhong and Cheng Yu, the people of Nanyang City were living and working in peace and contentment. Once they heard that the city was destroyed, their good days were coming to an end. This aroused panic among the people! Again
With those big households taking the lead, Cheng Yu's plan was successfully implemented. In these three days, Cheng Yu recruited a total of nearly 4,000 people! In addition to the remaining 500 defenders, this
The defensive strength of Nanyang City has been greatly strengthened!
However, as Cheng Yu himself said just now, this kind of strengthening is actually just a superficial phenomenon. These more than 4,000 temporary defenders can exert the combat power of 1,000 men. Cheng Yu and Le Jin will worship Buddha!
And to resist the enemies outside the city who have begun to make all-out moves, I'm afraid it's still not enough!
Le Jin gritted his teeth, turned to Cheng Yu and clasped his fists and said: "Master Cheng! You have already helped the general a lot! Next, it depends on the general! It's just that this city is too dangerous, sir, please go first
Get back! Here comes someone! Escort Mr. Cheng back to the city!" After saying that, Le Jin reached out and summoned a few soldiers to guard Cheng Yu's left and right.
Cheng Yu sighed. What Le Jin said was right. Cheng Yu, a scholar, couldn't help him even if he wanted to. If he stayed on top of the city, he would be in the way. Cheng Yu immediately handed over to Le Jin.
After bowing, he said: "General Le! In this case, then Nanyang City will be entrusted to the general! Please be more careful yourself, general!" After saying that, Cheng Yu no longer hesitated and turned around to look at those close relatives.
Under the escort of the guards, they hurried down the city.
After watching Cheng Yu leave, Le Jin turned around, with a strong fighting spirit in his eyes, raised his hands high, and shouted to the soldiers on his left and right: "Get ready! Attack!"
