Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Chapter 888

"kill!"

Inside and outside of Jiangling City, there are endless shouts of killing. Cao Jun has been attacking Jiangling City day and night for two full days. At every moment, there are countless Cao Jun attacking Jiangling City. The walls of Jiangling City are full of war. Traces of fireworks.

The Jingzhou soldiers on the top of the city have no more than a hundred people. Because of the battles these days, they have suffered heavy losses, nearly half of them were killed and injured, and many of them have not slept for a long time, fighting with fatigue. One is careless, opposite Cao Jun The sword has been cut over.

"Go away!"

Wei Yan yelled and slashed out. A Cao Bing was struck by him with a slash, and his body was split into two with a scream. At this moment, Wei Yan's eyes were scarlet. It was not that he had killed his eyes, but that he had not slept for two whole days!

Jiangling was attacked day and night by the Cao army outside the city, and the defenders in the city had long felt unable to sustain it. If it were not for Wei Yan to lead by example and fought against Cao Jun, how could these soldiers sustain it?

It was precisely because of Wei Yan's encouragement that even though they were sleepy and few in number, these Jingzhou soldiers actually withstood the opponent's onslaught.

However, these Jingzhou soldiers had reached their apex in terms of physical strength and mental strength, and none of them showed a feeling of being unable to support them.

"Lieutenant, when will the reinforcements arrive?"

Several Jingzhou soldiers asked, they really couldn't support it.

"It will be there soon, be sure to hold on!"

Wei Yan shouted sharply, and the long knife in his hand flew up and down, and in a blink of an eye several Cao soldiers died in his hands.

"Wei Yan, kid, come forward and lead to death!"

A murderous aura suddenly struck, and Wei Yan's subconscious horizontal sword blocked the attacking hammer.

Niu Jin said coldly: "Wei Yan, I advise you to surrender as soon as possible. Otherwise, after my general breaks the city, you will have no chance to surrender."

Wei Yan snorted coldly: "Stop talking nonsense, am I a halfhearted person, Wei Yan?"

Seeing Wei Yan Wuxin surrendering, Niu Jin stopped talking nonsense with him, so he rushed up with the hammer and fought Wei Yan. Wei Yan's martial arts was originally higher than Niu Jin, but he didn't close his eyes for two days and two nights, and his physical strength and mental state were far from the peak state. Of course, he was on par with Niu Jin at the moment.

Niu Jin's moves were heavy, and every hammer swung towards Wei Yan. Wei Yan could have resisted Niu Jin with his skills, but the physical exertion was too serious, so he could only resist Niu Jin's sledgehammer. .

"Damn it, if I'm still in peak state, I will kill this child within 30 rounds, and I will be really angry!"

Wei Yan didn't fight, but he could only fight Niu Jin, and his hands were numb for a while.

And just when Niu Jin entangled Wei Yan, more and more Cao soldiers stepped onto the city’s head and surrounded the small number of Jingzhou soldiers to fight. The number of Jingzhou soldiers who were already small became fewer and fewer. The number of Cao soldiers became more and more, occupying the entire city.

"It seems that Wei Yan won't hold on for long. Jiangling will be taken by our army, haha."

Cao Ren also had bloodshot eyes. He was about the same as Wei Yan. He hadn't slept for a long time, except that he didn't fight in person.

"As long as we take down Jiangling, we will be able to isolate Jingzhou from the north and south, and then we will be able to defeat them one by one, and sit and watch Sun Quan and the Xiliang army fight, while our army takes advantage of the fisherman." Man Chong smiled.

On the top of the city, Wei Yan tried his best to block Niu Jin, watching the fewer and fewer Jingzhou soldiers around him, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of powerlessness.

"Is it possible that today I really want to fight and die in Jiangling?"

Wei Yan's heart was ashamed, but the Jingzhou soldiers above the city were finally unable to support them, and they were about to retreat.

Oh oh oh!

A few miles to the northeast of Jiangling City, a desolate and primitive horn horn sounded, and a black line suddenly appeared on the horizon. The black line was approaching quickly at a speed that could not cover the ears, and it soon revealed To their true colors.

Xiliang Iron Horse!

This black line is exactly the rows of Xiliang cavalry wearing black clothes and black armor. Everyone is wearing black clothes and black armor, as if a black torrent is rushing forward, spreading aggressively on the ground, as if a building is moving. Great mountain!

"The whole army strikes, hurry, hurry!"

Li Yan shouted loudly, urging the three thousand Xiliang cavalry to speed up, and rushing towards Cao Renjun faster and faster. Although there were only three thousand horses, the charge was like an army of 10,000!

Xiliang iron cavalry is a person with two horses, so although there are only 3,000 cavalry, there are a total of 6,000 horses, lined up and rushed, and the spirit displayed is naturally extraordinary.

"Xiliang Iron Horse? Damn it!"

Seeing that Jiangling City was about to be taken down, unexpectedly at this critical stall, Xiliang Iron Knight suddenly appeared, and Cao Ren was naturally furious.

"General Zixiao, the Xiliang cavalry is coming fiercely. If you don't prepare well, you may be defeated by the enemy. You need to prepare early!" Manchong reminded hurriedly.

Cao Ren said coldly: "Send my order to stop the siege and deploy!"

"The general has orders, set up!"

Cao Ren's orders were passed on in an orderly manner, and more than 10,000 Cao's infantrymen immediately set up a fish-scale formation that would help prevent the cavalry from charging. The so-called fish-scale formations are actually small units composed of small formations one after another. These small units are connected to each other and can block the charge of the cavalry group, just like scales on a fish.

Cao Ren ran rampant between Huai and Si in his early years, leading a group of young rangers with fresh clothes and angry horses. He was first the cavalry commander next to Cao Cao. Therefore, he was naturally very sensitive to cavalry charges, so under his training, under his command, Soldiers are also very useful for cavalry rushing into battle.

"Slow down and go around slowly from the enemy!"

Li Yan is not a fool either. He was ordered to open his jaw and led three thousand Xiliang Iron Horses and Starry Nights to help, but Cao Ren on the opposite side was obviously not an easy one. If the infantry formation set up directly rushed forward, it would not be able to directly crush the enemy. These three thousand cavalry would instead sink in, unable to rush out.

Under Li Yan's order, the three thousand cavalry slowly slowed down, rushed to a stone's throw away from Cao Ren's army, and stopped, and then under the leadership of Li Yan, along the distance of Cao Ren's army. Around the place of a shot, slowly walk around, observing the weakness of the enemy.

Although Xiliang's iron cavalry is called an iron cavalry, it is essentially a light cavalry. It is not a horse-riding armor equipped with heavy armor. Of course, it cannot be forced into the formation, otherwise it will be impossible to get out if it gets stuck in it.

Therefore, Li Yan went around slowly, observing the weakness of the enemy army, and was always ready to break into it.
