Chapter 71 Catch the turtle in the urn, Huang Gai is dead!
"Boom! Boom!!"
Dense rain-like bows and arrows were continuously shot down from both sides of the street and from the rooftops.
Under the firelight, the arrow flashed coldly.
Phew! Phew!
Countless arrows were fired into the dense crowd, and each of Sun Ce's soldiers screamed in agony.
"No, I fell into a trap."
Sun Ce roared hysterically. He stared at the direction where Lu Xuan's voice came from, his eyes spitting fire, and he was extremely angry.
Fell into the trap again.
Lu Xuan actually planned everything.
Sun Ce looked anxious and looked at Chen Xi and Chang Wei beside him. He gritted his teeth and said, "You plotted against Lu Xuan and did it quietly. But as soon as we entered the city, we were ambushed by Lu Xuan. What happened?"
Chen Xi was also confused and even more anxious, and said quickly: "General Sun, I really don't know. All our arrangements have hidden information, and it is impossible for the information to be leaked."
"waste!"
Sun Ce yelled angrily, wishing to kill Chen Xi. It was Chen Xi who was such a loser that led to him being plotted by Lu Xuan again.
The army was also in trouble.
Cheng Pu was also anxious, but he was calmer and said quickly: "Young Master, don't waste time. Rush, we rush directly to the North City and defeat Lu Xuan's camp in one go. If we withdraw now and are killed by Lu Xuan's people, we will
Completely defeated, we can’t retreat, we can only charge.”
Sun Ce suddenly understood and said loudly: "Lu Xuan's camp is in Beicheng. Charge, go to Beicheng and defeat Lu Xuan."
He endured the pain, brandished the ancient ingot sword, and ordered a fierce attack.
All the soldiers braved the rain of arrows and sprinted quickly, intending to dodge all the bows and arrows.
Lu Xuan saw Sun Ce's response, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He turned his eyes and landed in front of the street. Under the red firelight, a group of people wearing armor and holding long guns appeared, blocking the retreat ahead.
The spears poked out one after another, the tip of the spear flashing with cold light.
The murderous intention is even more pervasive.
The formation of pikemen moved forward steadily, and in a blink of an eye they met Sun Ce's soldiers.
"prick!"
Taishi Ci was also among the spearmen. He carried a spear and gave orders personally.
Phew! Phew!
Long spears came out one after another and pierced into the bodies of Sun Ce's soldiers.
"receive!"
Taishi Ci roared again.
The spear was drawn out, bringing out a shower of blood.
Under the organization of Tai Shici, the soldiers in the spear formation stabbed out their spears steadily and then retracted them steadily.
The lethality of the spear is very strong. In fact, when it comes to large-scale destruction, the spear formation cannot achieve such an effect on the streets. However, the existence of the spear formation hindered the attack of Sun Ce's army, causing a large number of Sun Ce's troops to be blocked.
On the street, there is no way to move forward.
The crowded heads became targets.
On the houses and rooftops on both sides, the ambush archers fired arrows quickly and densely, constantly killing Sun Ce's soldiers.
This is the biggest casualty.
Sun Ce saw the soldiers being shot and killed one by one, and he panicked in his heart. He urged again: "Kill them, kill them."
A large number of soldiers rushed forward, but unfortunately, although the streets were wide, they still restricted the sprint of Sun Ce's soldiers. Even though Sun Ce ordered a fierce attack, the soldiers' sprint was still blocked by the spear array, and large numbers of people were stabbed and killed on the spot.
Chang Wei looked horrified, and suddenly said loudly: "General Sun, we are blocked, and there are many casualties. I lost dozens of my soldiers under the fire of bows and arrows. Retreat, Lu Xuan has an ambush, and we can't stop it."
"
When Sun Ce heard Chang Wei's words, he became furious.
If we withdraw our troops now, we will inevitably suffer a huge defeat.
Sun Ce had resentment towards Chen Xi and Chang Wei, but now upon hearing Chang Wei's words, he turned the ancient ingot sword in his hand and slashed it down.
Bah!
The blade cut Chang Wei's neck.
Chang Wei covered his bleeding neck, looked at Sun Ce, with a look of shock on his rough face, and asked: "Why, for..."
thump!
Chang Wei fell to the ground and lost his breath.
Sun Ce gritted his teeth, endured the pain, and said loudly: "Whoever dares to talk about retreating again, Chang Wei is an example, rush over and fight to Beicheng."
Chang Wei's soldiers were all frightened.
These people followed Sun Ce's soldiers and attacked again. However, the spear array arranged by Lu Xuan took advantage of the geographical advantages of the street. The two sides would not be attacked, but the front was.
In addition, Tai Shici personally commanded the spear formation, and he was at the forefront with his spear to block, which greatly relieved the pressure on the spear formation.
The spear array is as stable as Mount Tai.
Huang Gai sprinted for a while, but was unable to break through. He returned to Sun Ce and reminded: "Young Master, the road to the front is blocked and we cannot break through. Let's go back the way we came and evacuate Shu County. We can't win this battle.
."
Sun Ce was also a little panicked.
He turned his eyes to Cheng Pu and asked, "Mr. Cheng, what should we do?"
Cheng Pu's eyes were determined and he said: "The road in front of us is blocked. But behind, there is no spear array, and there are obviously traps at the south gate. Lu Xuan has determined that we will come, and the most likely way is to stop us here first.
, causing us to return the same way we came.”
"If we retreat now, we will definitely be ambushed."
"Come on, only by breaking through the ambush, breaking the spear formation, and fighting to the north city can we have a chance to break through."
Cheng Pu analyzed: "I conclude that Lu Xuan's troops are in the south city and there are very few in the north city. We have the only chance to break through from the north city. Young Master, give the order to break out. Huang Gai and I will take the lead and charge with all our strength.
The young master leads his men to suppress the formation and fight out."
"Everything depends on Master Cheng!"
Sun Ce nodded in reply.
He also agreed with Cheng Pu's analysis that the streets behind were empty and there was definitely a problem.
Sun Ce quickly issued the order, and the army attacked fiercely again.
Cheng Pu and Huang Gai were veteran generals in the army with rich experience and strong martial arts skills. They led the army at the front and suddenly met the spear formation led by Tai Shi Ci again.
Huang Gai slashed with his sword and killed a spearman. He was about to break through, but Tai Shici stabbed him with a spear, and Huang Gai quickly blocked it.
In an instant, the dead spearmen were replaced again.
The spear array is still stable.
Huang Gai and Cheng Pu made several fierce attacks, but were blocked by Taishi Ci and his men. As a result, their joint attack failed. Moreover, Taishi Ci was so powerful that Huang Gai was almost injured.
Huang Gai saw more and more people dying, especially the bows and arrows fired from both sides. He was so mad that he kept harvesting lives.
The point is, there's nowhere to hide nearby.
Now, all I can do is rush.
Huang Gai looked at Cheng Pu who was assisting him and sighed in his heart. If he didn't hold Tai Shi Ci back, he wouldn't be able to break out.
It's time to make a decision.
Huang Gai's eyes were determined, he clenched the knife in his hand, and said loudly: "Old Cheng, take good care of the young master. You follow me, and I will be the first to break out."
Cheng Pu said anxiously: "Don't mess around."
Huang Gai's expression was filled with emotion, and he took a step forward without hesitation and rushed towards Taishi Ci. He saw the spear thrust by Taishi Ci and did not dodge. He slightly avoided the vital point and allowed the spear to pierce the right side of his chest.
Blood, flowing.
Heartbreaking pain that penetrates to the bone marrow.
Huang Gai gritted his teeth and roared. He raised his left hand instantly and grasped the barrel of the spear. He rushed forward and let the spear penetrate into his body, making it impossible to withdraw the spear. Veins popped up on his forehead, and his eyes
Congested with blood, the knife held in his right hand slashed down like lightning,
One sword strike, powerful and powerful.
It is even more indestructible.
When the sword fell, Taishi Ci was caught by the big spear in his hand and could not block it. His only way was to let go. Taishi Ci's eyes were sharp, and he let go of the spear like lightning, and turned sideways to avoid the falling long knife.
Huang Gai's sword failed.
But he himself was exposed in front of the spearmen, who stabbed Huang Gai one after another with their spears.
Huang Gai refused to dodge and slashed Taishi Ci with his sword again, making Taishi Ci unable to deal with other spearmen. He was defeated by Taishi Ci, but he used his own life to hold Taishi Ci back and clear the way for Cheng Pu, so he still managed
owned.
"Old Cheng, fight out!"
Huang Gai roared hysterically.
Phew! Phew!
One after another, the spears pierced Huang Gai's body and pierced Huang Gai's chest.
"Repudiation!"
Cheng Pu shouted Huang Gai's cousin loudly, his eyes bloodshot and angry.
In the past, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang and Zu Mao were all Sun Jian's family generals. Although they were not brothers, they were better than brothers. They followed Sun Jian in the north and south, and their relationship was very good.
During the attack on Dong Zhuo, Zu Mao died in order to save Sun Jian, leaving one of the four brothers missing. Now that Han Dang was killed and Huang Gai was about to die, Cheng Pu's heart felt like a knife was being twisted.
"Kill out!"
Huang Gai's last voice came, and as long spears were drawn out, blood continued to gush out of Huang Gai's body.
Huang Gai's body went limp.
"Kill, kill out."
Cheng Pu swung his sword fiercely and took advantage of Huang Gai's path to rush forward quickly.
Sun Ce also had red eyes and an angry expression. However, he knew that he could not stay now and live up to the path Huang Gai had opened with his life, so he could only break out of the encirclement quickly.
Sun Ce endured the pain and joined forces with Cheng Pu. Taking advantage of Taishi Ci's brief blockade, he tore apart the spear formation's defense line and quickly headed towards the north city.
Sun Ce's army quickly broke through.
Lu Xuan stood upstairs and saw the scene of Huang Gai dying, with a look of admiration in his eyes.
Huang Gai deserves its reputation.
He is worthy of being a tiger minister of Jiangdong.
It's a pity that since we are enemies, we are destined to fight to the death.
Lu Xuan looked at Sun Ce's army heading towards the north city, with a smile on his face. Sun Ce thought that he would encounter an ambush when retreating, so he wanted to break out from the direction of the north gate. Isn't there an ambush at the north gate?
What a great idea!
There are also people waiting to stop Sun Ce at the north gate.
Lu Xuan looked at Zhou Yu and ordered: "Gong Jin, you command the army, I will lead the people to start the killing."
"Here!"
Zhou Yu nodded and answered.
Lu Xuan took Zhou Tai and quickly came to the street, mobilizing the archers who shot arrows and the soldiers who were ambushing in the houses. Everyone stopped shooting arrows and began to attack with all their strength to cover up the fleeing Sun Ce army.
